Chapter 1034: The Battle of Peaceful Beijing (Part 2)
The first round of arrow rain was just a test, and this round was just lighting. The rocket fell into the formation of the Japanese army, instantly making them the targets of the Song Dynasty crossbow arrows. Yu Hou, who was experienced in the army, had divided the crossbow arrows into three rows to start shooting. In this way, arrow rain almost ended.
Crack, the uniform razor wheels were like a deadly evening drum. The Japanese wailed and hid in the nearby houses. The military discipline began to disintegrate. If they had not had the absolute advantage of the number of people, they would have begun to show signs of defeat.
Yang Shuo looked at Cai Boyi. When he saw his firm eyes, he found out for the first time that he was different from before.
Before, Cai Boqi always gave people a feeling of being a playboy, with a good temper, and could speak to anyone, even the big-headed soldiers in the army could chat with him.
Now Cai Boyi is more like a general, yes, he is a general. Although he does not have strong martial arts skills, does not have any outstanding command, and is not even very clear about the way of using troops, he gives people a feeling of moving forward in spirit.
As the crossbow arrows continued to shoot, Yang Shuo could not help it and said to Cai Boyi in a low voice: "Transporter, our arrow branches cannot withstand such consumption, stop it? If the Japanese rushed up, we would not have used crossbow arrows..."
Cai Boqi shook his head slightly: "Continue, use all the weapons that can be poured into the enemy's formation, and use all the things that can be consumed, such as gunpowder, crossbow arrows, ignite oil arrows, etc., so that the Japanese will not be able to raise their heads! They will not be able to use them later. In addition, send someone to tell Shi Yuansun that he can set off! We don't use guns to avoid the Japanese being suspicious!"
Yang Shuo nodded slightly. It was indeed to protect Shi Yuansun, but there was no need to be so prodigal! This was not in the Song Dynasty, and he could use any number of crossbows and arrows to replenish them. If this continues, even if Shi Yuansun seizes the city gate, the army will only run away.
Although he thought so in his heart, Shi Yuansun still carried out Cai Boqi's orders, and Shi Yuansun's departure also indicates that Cai Boqi will become the supreme commander of this army.
After Yang Shuo sent someone to send orders to the various troops, Cai Boqi explained: "These things will not be used later, and you must gather all the vans in the army. After the soldiers shoot the crossbow arrows, they will confiscate all the Eight Niu Crossbows and Ratchet Crossbows. They must be put into the vans, pour them with turbulent oil, and burn them clean. Cai Shi, you will help Yang Sima statistics later. Remember to compare the account book and burn them all!"
Of course, Yang Shuo knew what Cai Boyi was doing. First, to reduce the weight of the soldiers, and second, to never give the Japanese a chance to get these things. No one can guarantee whether there will be any misses in the fight later... It turns out that he is going to run away!
"Okay, I'll listen to you! Then I'll send orders to the battalions and let the captains in the army supervise. Cai Shi will follow me to count them later!" Yang Shuo thought for a while and said, "These things cannot be wasted. If the last fire is insufficient, you can create a fire wall to block the Japanese. Believe me, just pour strong turbulent oil on it, unless there is nothing to burn, no one can kill it!"
Cai Boqi nodded slightly, and a long-lost smile appeared on his face: "Okay, Yang Sima Duoduo is worried!"
Commanding an army of 5,000 people is not difficult for Cai Boqi. This army has been trained to operate independently. To put it bluntly, even if Cai Boqi dies, this army will still do whatever it should do. This is the characteristic of the Song army.
The thrown objects of the Song Dynasty tilted wildly into the Japanese army like money. The red rain of arrows, burning tinder oil, explosive gunpowder bullets, and dense crossbow arrows performed an extremely exciting performance in the Japanese army's military formation.
The level of liveliness is like a festive festival, but it is just accompanied by the wail of the Japanese. The rocket is like a meteor falling to the ground, and the turbid oil erupts like magma. This is a hell on earth. Although it is out of reach, it is close to you.
At this time, Shi Yuansun led a thousand men to attack from the side gate, and five hundred cavalry opened the way like mudslides rushing through the woods. Suddenly, the Japanese army on the flank of the Song Dynasty camp collapsed in an instant.
They had never encountered heavy horses with armor, and even the armor on their own was a few broken pieces... Even the large armor on the "well-equipped" warriors was only added with leather.
The powerful cavalry blew across the fields like a hurricane, and the Japanese soldiers were scraped like wheat. Some people even lay on the ground pretending to be dead and were unwilling to get up to fight. Their weapons could not even leave any traces on the steel monster in front of them. The powerful impact of the war horses could hit them and vomit blood and die.
Although the Japanese soldiers had never fought with the Song Dynasty cavalry, they knew that as long as they were knocked down, they would have no chance to hide, and if they could not hide, they would mean their lives. The corpses on the ground were tragic, and their chests were trapped by horse hooves. The huge horse hooves were deeply engraved on him like a piece of branding iron, which was shocking.
This is a truly one-sided battle. Shi Yuansun led a thousand soldiers tore a hole in the Japanese defense line like a sharp knife. So what if they were released? Tens of thousands of soldiers had already been stationed on the walls of Heianjing!
The Japanese found a suitable reason to retreat. In order to reduce casualties and save their lives, they naturally allowed the soldiers of the Song Dynasty to pass through. But they didn't know that these few thousand people not only tear a hole in their defense, but also tear a hole in the Song Dynasty's army breaking into Ping'anjing!
But now the Japanese are immersed in a terrifying atmosphere. The strength of the Song army was reflected when both sides were in close contact. The Japanese army had no counterattack power at all. Although their bows and arrows were very large, their range was not far. This was what Cai Boyi knew for a long time, and it also caused the Song army's crossbow arrows to suppress the Japanese in an all-round way.
This country is mountainous, so large-scale cluster shooting cannot be used. Moreover, the war is very small, making it difficult to gather large-scale archers. Japan's arrows are very wide, which shortens the range of the longbow, which originally had a short range, and causes the bow and arrow to have a large arc during shooting. The wide arrows are designed to form a cutting effect after being shot into the human body and expand the wound.
But now, the bows and arrows of Japan cannot even reach the edge of the Song army. What's the use of no matter how powerful it is? The crossbow arrows of the Song army are different. They not only have long range, but also have amazing lethality. This has been specially treated with arrows and arrow shafts, adding a long blood groove.
Like the Triangle Army Bad, each crossbow arrow has three blood grooves that extend from the arrow to the tail of the arrow shaft. Once shot into the human body, blood will flow out quickly through the blood groove. This crossbow arrow was the first time that the Song Dynasty used, and Japan became the battlefield for the Song Dynasty's experimental weapons.
