However, once the Kushan elites and the Han army have distanced themselves, even if there is a problem with the accuracy, when covering the shooting, the accuracy will not mean much. If 30,000 short spears are smashed down, even if the accuracy is nonsense, at least the first wave will be
There can be a loss of five hundred, and besides, it’s not just one wave.
The hilly terrain obviously inhibits the cavalry, but for the crossbow shield guards who can occupy the top of the hills, it is not a bad thing. They stand high, can see far, and have a wide suppression range.
Although Zhang Yan was not good at commanding large armies, Daqushuai, who survived the Yellow Turban Rebellion, was very simple to fight. Therefore, after Tian Yu and Zhao Yun pounced out, Zhang Yan commanded the shield guards to start looking for favorable terrain.
However, by the time Zhang Yan found a suitable commanding height and set up the crossbow machine, the Han army and the Kushan elites had already merged into one ball. In this case, the elite archers could provide support, but the crossbow machine would not be able to provide support.
It won't accidentally damage a large area.
After all, the shield guard does not have the relevant precision talent. He can only rely on his feelings and cannot accurately observe the impact of the natural environment on the arrow. In addition, the accuracy of the crossbow machine at long distances. To be honest, if he really wants to take action at that time, Zhao Yun,
Tian Yu and others will definitely be affected.
To be honest, the crossbows coming out of the assembly line are already very good in terms of accuracy. But even for later generations of rifles, bullets will inevitably drift at a distance of 500 meters, not to mention the design of the crossbows.
Just because the accuracy can be guaranteed does not mean that the accuracy of the crossbow itself can be guaranteed. Even if the materials are the same, there is actually a certain gap between the crossbow arrows.
These gaps have led to certain accuracy problems. Archers can rely on various related elite talents to correct them, such as precision, guidance, locking, etc. Shield guards do not have these things.
Of course, even without these talents, some people can still shoot by feeling, just like a normal person holding a rifle to death and hitting 200 meters away. However, during the Anti-Japanese War, some people used a rifle to snipe at 600 meters without a sniper scope.
For enemies outside, to be fair, a person six hundred meters away can only be seen as a small dot, and that alone can guarantee a headshot with a gun.
So theoretically speaking, even if there is no so-called talent, even if the accuracy of the weapons used is limited, even if the bullets loaded are reloaded, and the accuracy is rubbish, there are always some people who can do it under various restricted conditions.
, accomplish such outrageous things.
Therefore, if the shield guard uses the crossbow a lot, he may become adaptable to the accuracy of the crossbow, and then the more he uses it, the more he will get used to it, and the more he uses it, the higher the accuracy will be. Of course, this rare ability will probably only be used.
Happened to some soldiers.
But it doesn't matter. There isn't much else in the shield guard corps. Even if there are many people, they are all on the assembly line. Chen Xi doesn't mind preparing crossbows for all the shield guards.
As for the cost, the molds have already been made. The more you make, the lower the amortized cost will be. Besides, the most important thing is that except for the parts that need to be molded, the rest are made of wood.
, wood is not worth much these days.
When people in the Central Plains made arrows in the winter, they even used centuries-old wood. If it hadn't been for some scammer who came up with a fast-growing forest, they could plant it this year and grow it next year. It would be slender enough to be used as a gun shaft.
It is also suitable as an arrow shaft. The arrow shafts in the Han Dynasty are still made of centuries-old trees.
Relatively speaking, arrow shafts made from century-old trees are of better quality. Arrow shafts made from fast-growing forests can only be used for ordinary arrows at most. To mount heavy-duty spike arrows, you have to use century-old trees, especially those in the north.
That century-old tree that grows slowly.
Of course, for a crossbow machine, the material requirements for the arrow shaft are not so high. Normal materials are enough. If it is shot out, as long as it can be recycled, it can basically be reused.
By the way, the current crossbow shield guards are actually issued with shields, but they cannot pick up the shield and crossbow at the same time, only one.
Of course, if you are like Jiang Ji, who can have a shield in one hand, a crossbow in the other, a full steel plate armor, and a lot of other warheads loaded on other parts of the body, and still be able to jump around, then Chen Xi won't mind at all.
Equipped for you too.
Unfortunately, there are not many people who can do it, so Chen Xi can only say, it's not that I don't try my best, but that I want to try my best. If you can't do it, let me try my best. Life is so pale and powerless!
"Fire the arrow!" Zhang Yan directed the crossbow shield guard to fire the arrow in the direction of Urdu, Kailash, Falgon and others in the distance. It doesn't matter if you aim or not, as long as the general direction and angle are fine.
, Accuracy is important for a single shot, but for this kind of coverage strike, it doesn't matter at all.
The first wave of 30,000-shot short spears covered Urdu and others. Before they could hit, Zhang Yan started to curse at his soldiers.
The crossbow shield guards have not been trained. Although it is easy to hit a target more than 100 meters away with a crossbow at a three-point and one-line level, but when it is used to aim at a target several kilometers away, the slight deviation will be magnified.
A range of tens of meters.
It was the first time that the crossbow shield guard used the crossbow in this way, aiming at the Kushan elite in the distance. The first problem that arose was that the coverage circle of the impact point was too large, with a coverage circle of several kilometers in size.
With such a wide coverage area, Zhang Yan doesn't know how to describe it other than to curse. This is a short spear covered with iron. I don't know how much money it will cost if I shoot it at 30,000. In the end, you gave me this result.
During a wave of scolding, the shield guard has completed the reloading process. It is quite difficult to reload the crossbow. However, with the hand armor, the shield guard can directly pull the twisted wire to wind the crossbow. The speed of reloading is much faster than that of the crossbow.
Ordinary crossbows are much slower, but one shot every ten seconds is absolutely no problem.
Therefore, while Zhang Yan was cursing her mother, the shield guards had already launched the second wave of strikes. Compared with the first wave, the impact point of the second wave was significantly smaller. Of course, Falgon's counterattack had already begun.
The Han army came and attacked.
It's just that at this distance calculated in kilometers, Falgon's light arrows have no meaning at all. It may have a considerable effect on the Yuyang Assault Cavalry and the Red Blood Cavalry, but for the Shield Guards, it is completely
invalid.
There are standard shield guards holding shields next to the 30,000 crossbow machine shield guards. Falgon's arrow rain suppresses and covers them. The shield guards don't even try to hide. The shield guards carry the shield directly, and the crossbow machine shield guards raise their hands.
Keep shooting, if you can, break through the shield guard's shield!
Zhang Yan continued to scold her, because although the impact point of the short spear has been significantly reduced, the range is still calculated in kilometers, and the coverage area reaches several square kilometers. Under this coverage area, the targets that can be hit are really too many.
not enough.
However, compared to Zhang Yan who only had to consider how many hits he had, Urdu and others were really unlucky at this time. Even if the impact point of the crossbow arrows covered several square kilometers, with Kuishang spreading the battle line,
The hit rate is not high, but this thing is a crossbow!
Just like sniper rifles and sniper equipment, although they are both sniper tools, their power is completely different. Sniper rifles are basically used to hit people, while sniper equipment can even be used for anti-tank.
Gu Tong
The difference between the crossbow and the crossbow machine is almost the same as the difference between the two mentioned above. If the strong crossbow is still something that the top military units can withstand, then if you want to carry something like the crossbow machine hard, you can only find the shield guard and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
, Qiangwei, something like a super-heavy step, and the distance needs to be relatively far.
If it's really close, apart from the super-heavy steps, the only thing that can be relied on is the God's Iron Cavalry's resistance to instantaneous non-special attacks. Otherwise, the shield of the Shield Guard will be hard-pressed to withstand this kind of thing.
Urdu, Kailash, and Falgun's subordinates are all considered elite, but no matter how elite they are, if they cannot withstand the attack of a crossbow machine, they will die.
Even if the hit rate is less than 2%, if you hit it, you will die, and it is a very tragic death. If you are not lucky, you will be blown up directly. The loss of morale is really too serious.
"Disperse the formation and retreat, don't move randomly!" Urdu ordered loudly.
Facing the crossbow attack of the Han army, there is no way to ride with a scimitar at this distance. Even if it has the ability to cut short and medium range with arc light, when the crossbow arrow falls on your head, even if it is struck with one blow,
Cutting the short spear apart won't solve any problem.
At such a high terminal speed, even if the short spear is cut off, the remaining part is still enough to kill Urdu's soldiers on the spot.
This was such a despair. Faced with this situation, Urdu could only order his soldiers to separate and rely on the mobility of the cavalry to find a way to leave.
However, there was no change in terms of results. Even if Kushan's elite soldiers dispersed naturally, facing the attack of the crossbow shield guards, they would still lose between one, two hundred and two to three hundred people in each wave.
, the so-called dispersion does not significantly reduce losses.
"Falgon, be protected by the rain of arrows!" Urdu roared at Falgon.
Just now Urdu watched helplessly as the veteran who had been following him since the melee between the north and the south of Kushan was directly killed by a short spear falling from the sky. Even though he had long been prepared to die in battle, Urdu couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
He roared in the direction of Falgon.
"I'm constantly counterattacking, but it's useless. It's completely useless. In terms of the density of the arrow rain, the arrows I actually counterattack are more than the arrows fired by the Han army now, but it's completely useless!" Falgon also said.
He roared at Urdu with a ferocious expression.
Falgon really tried his best. He had already used the maximum rate of fire. When the first wave of short spears fell on the heads of the Kushan soldiers, Falgon had already started to counterattack, rapid fire, high power, and direct analysis of the ballistic trajectory.
Cover the opponent in reverse.
Theoretically speaking, this is the most effective plan. Archer Duizi has this kind of combat idea. And theoretically speaking, Falgon's high rate of fire is enough to suppress the archers who are shooting in a short time, and then rely on
Throw a hail of arrows to defeat the opponent.
When the fourth wave of attacks by the Han army came, Falgon's men had already fired less than half of the barrel of arrows. The rate of fire was so high that it was definitely worthy of being top-notch.
However, when half a barrel of arrows were thrown down, the density and delivery efficiency of the opponent's arrow rain did not change at all. In other words, the opponent faced Falgon's arrow rain and shot at Falgon.
This is completely unreasonable. There are no archers in this world who can compete with Falgon's royal archers without any change of rhythm.
From the first climbers, divine cavalry, to the shooting sound, Changshui, Scythia, Condor Shooters, and down to various regular archer corps, there is absolutely no one who can fight against Falgon's royal archers and cavalry.
The legion did not even change its rhythm despite Falgon's attack.
"It's useless to say this. If this continues, the battle line will collapse!" Urdu said angrily.
"Charge to the left, first go to the back of the hill on the left, and then rush into the jungle." Falgon shouted loudly, "The opponent may not be archers, but large-scale crossbow shield guards. Only this kind of legion can have
Maybe they can ignore my attack at this distance and use the crossbow to suppress it."
"Is the Han army changing clothes so fast?" Urdu angrily shouted, but he was not slow at all. He led the scimitar charge and ran toward the back of the hill with the spiral force field at full speed.
By the way, the spiral force field is a good ability to prevent arrows. It can defend against almost all kinds of arrow strikes. It can also improve one's own attack power, strengthen confrontation capabilities, weaken the opponent's attack power, etc., but facts have proven that this thing is useless.
The defensive ability against short spears is not strong.
In particular, its defensive ability against the ultra-high-speed short spear fired by the Crossbow Shield Guard is very fragile.
Therefore, at this time, Urdu used the method of dissolving the mental image to completely cancel the arc cutting and try his best to strengthen the spiral force field. The meaning is more to give his soldiers a sense that his talent is trying to protect them and make them believe that they have obtained shelter.
As for whether it can be blocked, it doesn't matter.
"It's hard to say how fast the Han army changed their equipment. God knows if they have so many crossbow machines. In short, the current situation can only be a large-scale crossbow machine shield guard. Otherwise, there is absolutely no way that there will be legions in my counterattack.
Next, shoot without any turmoil." Falgon roared with a ferocious expression.
"Stop talking, according to the time interval, the sixth wave is coming!" Kailash greeted loudly. Although the battlefield was chaotic, they had already calculated the time interval between the Han army's arrow rain strikes, "Quickly retreat
, this kind of thing cannot be stopped at all.”
Following Kailash's words, the sixth wave of short spears fell, once again successfully taking away the lives of two to three hundred people.
What kind of scattered formation? For this kind of free fall point, the thing where the hit depends on the scale multiplied by the probability is basically useless. The number of hits per time, as long as the legion is still within the coverage, the hit rate will not change much at all.
Even to put it too much, the entire Kushan army was randomly distributed throughout the coverage area, and there was basically no big difference between the results of moving and not moving.
Any aim, any talent, are all nonsense. When the crossbow shield guard shoots, he basically does not aim at any Kushan soldier. Whether he hits or misses is either probability or metaphysics. Anyway, as long as you are still within the coverage area, as long as
