Chapter 60 Blood-stained Desert (2)

In just one round of attack, hundreds of people were killed or injured, but the price paid by the Tang army was negligible. This was the case when the Tang army's strong crossbow was not used. If the Tang army used the strong crossbow, it was still a matter of whether one-third of the troops could come back.

You should know that the strong crossbow was the most deadly threat to the Turks by the Tang army.

From the Qin and Han dynasties to the Tang dynasty for more than a thousand years, China's main threats came from the nomadic peoples in the north. These nomadic peoples were riding and shooting. The reason why they lost to China was that their riding and shooting was suppressed by powerful crossbows and could not exert their power.

"Damn it! Damn it!" Dagan's eyes were wide open, and she hated her, but she could accept this result.

In the war between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks, the Tang army was always able to win more with less and always achieved huge victory at a very small price, which has been proven by countless wars.

For example, in the battle of Yihe, Su Dingfang fought with more than 10,000 people from the Western Turks, but the result was that the Tang army beheaded tens of thousands and destroyed the Western Turks. However, the price paid by the Tang army was very small.

For example, in the Battle of Black Mountain, the Tang army used more than 100,000 troops to fight hundreds of thousands of troops, and the result was that the Turks had blood flowed into rivers, corpses accumulated like mountains, and hundreds of thousands of casualties were injured.

"Come again! rush!" Dagan gritted his teeth and ordered three hundred people to charge.

Three hundred Turks rode their horses and lined up in neat battle formations to charge against the Tang army.

The eyes of these three hundred Turks were flashing with heat. They wanted to capture Li Longji alive and make a wonderful achievement.

However, they were greeted by death.

"Strong crossbow, let it go!" This time, Li Longji decided to let the strong crossbow join the battle.

Ten powerful crossbows stood like ancient ferocious beasts. The crossbow arrows, which were as thick as wine glasses and as long as a long one, were quietly placed on the arrow road, shining like the fangs of ferocious beasts.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

A powerful engine sounded, like thunder, shocking the eardrums.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!"

The crossbow arrow rushed out like thunder and lightning, breaking the air barrier and making a deafening loud noise, which made people's eardrums feel faintly painful.

"This feels like launching a missile." Li Longji said in his heart.

A crossbow and arrow flew in the air like poisonous snakes pounced on the Turks, ruthlessly piercing into the Turks' body.

"Puff! Puff! Puff!" The dull sound of flesh sounded, endlessly.

The crossbow arrow is too strong. Once it hits the Turks, whether it is a human or a horse, a transparent blood hole will appear. The crossbow arrow flies through the hole and flies towards the next target.

Because the crossbow arrows were too fast, blood did not have time to fill the holes, and it was transparent in front and behind, and light could be seen. Then, blood filled the holes, and blood splattered like a fountain.

"Ah!" The screaming Turks were driven by huge power to fly in the air, and they screamed and danced with their hands, as if they were dancing a space dance.

"Yu Yu!" If the war horse is shot, it will make a sad neigh, and it will also be carried to fly in the air, like leaves falling in the wind.

The war horse is very heavy, weighing hundreds of kilograms, and it will be carried by crossbow arrows to fly in the air. It can be imagined how powerful the crossbow is.

A crossbow arrow often penetrates people or horses of different sizes, and its strength will gradually weaken.

When the crossbow arrows stop, a wonder will appear. Each crossbow arrow has at least three or three horses, and at most four or five people or horses, making it a meat skewer.

The person or horse strung together has not died yet, is struggling and twitching. This scene is so scary.

"Hiss!" Tang Jun let out a sound of sucking cold air, everyone looked horrified.

Tang Jun had heard from the veteran Zhang Xiaofei about the power of the powerful crossbow, but they had not seen it with their own eyes. Now, they saw it with their own eyes that its terror is far beyond their imagination.

"The powerful crossbow can be said to be an ancient missile." Li Longji was also shocked and said in his heart.

With just one round of powerful crossbow shooting, thirty or twenty Turks were killed and injured.

"I only brought about a dozen powerful crossbows, which was so powerful. If I formed a crossbow formation, what would it be?" Li Longji looked at the battlefield situation and felt a little scared.

Strong crossbows have always been a powerful weapon for the ancient Chinese world. Once they form a crossbow formation, their power will destroy the world and cannot be resisted by any flesh and blood.

"Shoot again!" Although there were many casualties and injuries, the Turks still did not stop attacking and were still charging. Li Longji decisively issued an order to continue shooting and killing the crossbow.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!" The powerful crossbow shot and killed one round after another, and there were many Turkic casualties in each round.

The denser the formation, the greater the power of the strong crossbow. At the beginning, the shooting effect of the strong crossbow was very obvious. Later, as the casualties of the Turks increased, the formation became more and more sparse, and the power of the strong crossbow was getting smaller and smaller. Li Longji decisively ordered the strong crossbow to stop shooting.

At this time, the Turks had already rushed to the range of the Tang army's crossbow, and Li Longji ordered: "Board crossbow, shoot!"

"Swish! Swish! Swish!" After being shot by the crossbow, many people were killed and injured in the Turks.

"Bow and arrow, let it go!" The Turks rushed to the range of the bow and arrow, and Li Longji ordered the Tang army to fire arrows.

"Bow and arrow, let it go!" At the same time, the Turks were also firing arrows.

For a moment, the two armies shot at each other, and arrows flew in the air like locusts.

In this round of shooting, the Tang army suffered not much casualties, and the Turks suffered a lot. It was not that the Turks had poor archery skills, but that the Turks' defense was too poor. The Turks did not have good armor, and they were mostly leather armor. How could they not suffer any losses when encountering bows and arrows?

However, the Tang army mainly uses iron armor, and its defense is much better than that of the Turks, so naturally the casualties are much smaller.

The Turks suffered consecutive blows, and they suffered heavy casualties. They were shot by bows and arrows and had lost their offensive ability. They had to retreat after rushing to twenty feet away from the Tang army.

These three hundred people, less than one hundred people who retreated, were injured and two-thirds of the casualties. This made Dagan so angry that his teeth itched, but he was helpless.

"There are so many casualties in two charges. If we continue to fight like this, we will be killed or injured in a few rounds. If not, I have to withdraw." Dagan weighed in his heart: "But once I withdraw, the camp will be slaughtered by the Tang army. I can't control so many things, leaving the army is the most important thing."

The Turks have no chance of winning against the Dark Formation. Removal is the best choice. Dagan is smart and can judge the situation.

However, his idea was destined to fail because Li Longji would not give him a chance.

"Brothers: It's time for us to attack!" Li Longji said loudly: "It's impolite to come and not go! If the Turks can attack us, we can attack the Turks. Hold your bows and arrows tightly, hold your swords tightly, and enjoy the killing feast!"

The Tang army not only defended like an iron barrel, but also had a sharp attack. Once an attack was launched, it would be a storm, and it would be a killing, with sharp lights flashing in the soldiers' eyes.

"Cabin, attack!" Li Longji waved his right hand heavily, like thunder and lightning.

"Rumor!" The cavalry on the left and right wings immediately galloped and surrounded the Turks from the left and right wings.

The cavalry of the Tang Dynasty were all light cavalry, and what they needed was their fast maneuverability. When galloping, the speed was very fast, like two arrows, penetrated directly behind the Turks.

Dagan fought against the Tang army many times and knew the Tang army's fighting style. Li Longji wanted the cavalry to cut off the Turks' retreat and create a chance for killing for the Modao battle formation.

"Stop them!" Dagan made a quick decision and ordered the Turks to intercept the Tang cavalry.

Immediately, two teams of Turkic rush out on horseback, trying to stop the Tang cavalry. However, that was destined to be impossible.

"Swish! Swish! Swish!" The Tang cavalry first shot and killed with his hand crossbow.

Compared with bows and arrows, the range of hand crossbows is much longer, has better penetration and greater lethality. When this shot kills, the Turks are killed by horses and horses, with many casualties.

The Turkic bows and arrows could not reach the Tang army, so they could only get beaten.

After several rounds of hand crossbow shooting, the Turkic bows and arrows finally reached the Tang army, and they opened their bows and shot arrows. However, the armor of the Tang army cavalry was very good, and the arrows could not help the Tang army cavalry.

The Tang army was well equipped, and Li Longji's cavalry was even more well equipped. All the bright light armor and Turkic arrows shot at the Tang army's cavalry, which was useless.

After shooting from a long range, the distance between the two armies quickly narrowed and they were about to fight hand-to-hand combat.

The Tang cavalry put away their bows and arrows, picked up their horse spears, and rushed towards the Turks.

The front fingers of many horse lances are neatly arranged, like poisonous snakes.

The Turks could only hold the scimitar tightly.

The two armies collided with each other, and many more corpses appeared on the ground, bursting out a piece of blood, and red on the ice and snow.

One inch long and one inch strong. The Tang army's horse spear was much longer than the Turkish scimitar, so it naturally gained the upper hand. Often the Tang army's horse spear stabbed the Turks so that they could not reach the Tang army.

The purpose of the Tang army cavalry equipped with horse lances is not to kill many enemies, but to create chaos to facilitate the subsequent slashing and killing. The Tang army cavalry decisively threw away the horse lances in their hands, pulled out the horizontal sword, and slashed and killed hard, fierce and fierce, and showed no mercy.

After being stabbed by a horse spear, the Turks suffered many casualties and were in chaos. They could not resist the slash and slaughter of the Tang army like a wolf or a tiger, and it was in chaos for a while.

In addition, the Tang army's defense was amazing. Even if the Turks hit the Tang army, it was just a crisp sound of metal impact and a row of sparks.

The Tang army slashed on the Turks, which was real, and if they were not killed, they would be injured.

In just a while, the Turks were at a disadvantage. After a while, the Turks had to turn around and run away.

The Tang army cavalry rushed straight behind the Turks like sharp arrows. The two cavalry quickly joined together and cut off the Turks' retreat.

"It's fierce and sharp, but it lacks murderous aura." Li Longji saw it and was still satisfied.

It's great to have such a performance in the first head-on battle.

"Strike!" The cavalry had cut off the Turks' retreat. It was time to completely annihilate the Turks. Li Longji decisively ordered the entire army to attack.

"Rumor!" Tang army pressed against the Turks, and made a shocking sound.

The one who walks in the front is Mo Dao Hand, the one who comes immediately behind is the knife hand, the archer behind, and the last one who protects the back is the knife hand. The two wings are covered with the knife hand.

"Mo Dao is here! Mo Dao is here! Escape! Escape!" The Turk looked at the shining Mo Dao, and his heart was cold, wanting to escape.

They had known Mo Dao's power for a long time, and they absolutely did not have the courage to face Mo Dao.

When you meet Mo Dao, no matter how brave a person is, it is useless and will be chopped into pieces. The only thing that can deal with Mo Dao is the crossbow formation, but is there any Turks?

"Kill!" The Tang cavalry, who cut off the Turkic retreat route, fought against the Turkic and drove the Turkic sword battle formation.

"Kill!" Mo Dao Zhan showed his power in the formation, and shining Mo Dao slashed at the Turks.

Any flesh and blood body, whether it is a human or a horse, can only be slaughtered when encountering the Modao Battle Formation, and the Turks have no strength to fight back, and they have suffered heavy casualties.

The Modao Battle Formation split the Turkic army into pieces, then rushed to the camp, and split the Turkic old and weak into pieces.
