Chapter 559 There is a firewall behind it 1/5 update

7:30 Today’s first update, and this book has been revised for the fifth update. Please pay attention!

"Arrow a formation!"

"Shoot with arrows."

Basically, these two sentences talk about one thing. When the two armies are facing each other in this era, they usually shoot against each other and arrange the array outside the opponent's range. Then, the side that suffers from the range, it is estimated that they have to consider how to effectively shorten the distance between the two sides.

The 10,000 cavalry were about the bearded men of the Damascus army and sent a tentative attack force. Their black crows were lined up in front of the narrow river road. The well-trained Mamluk cavalry maintained their silent nature.

10,000 cavalry occupies an absolutely overwhelming force against 1,000 cavalry. I observed the opponent at a short distance. Although I felt that the opponent's 1,000 cavalry had a stronger murderous aura. However, the huge gap in number made people feel that if only one charge would shatter the opponent's formation.

Juliana's hand holding the bow trembled. When she had never been to the battlefield, she not only felt her heart trembling, but her hands were even shaking.

"Bow and arrow, range 300, shoot!"

Until now, Zhao Fubo has not planned to reveal his true strength. Arrow shooting is just a habit of combat in this era, and even has a little custom. Everyone takes out bows and arrows, pretending to pull all the arrows shooting all over the ground.

When bows and arrows are the main long-range attack methods, the maximum range of bows and arrows or powerful crossbows is the baseline for the opponent to launch an attack. However, for the Mamluk cavalry in the Middle East, they do not care about 800 meters. "Arrows" refers to light arrows based on the premise of shooting far. Compared with the heavily armored Mamluk cavalry, the lethality of this arrow can be almost ignored.

“300 meters!”

Juliana, who put away the bow, flew at Zhao Fubo. She was a little confused. According to her experiment, using the maximum range of those light arrows can reach a longer distance. Juliana even used a special "flying arrow" to shoot over 500 meters.

Julianna didn't know what good things Zhao Fubo arranged last night on the open ground 300 meters away. She didn't know that Zhao Fubo's fundamental plan was not really going to fight with the other party here.

Behind them lined up, the crossbows were placed 200 meters away. At this moment, Juliana and the others stopped the horses, which was the place where people were killed. Those who knew about the insiders knew that the heads of the 10,000 Mamluk cavalry could now be considered as the income of the main combat cavalry!

"charge……"

The bearded man of the Damascus army was leading the army, looking at the few troops wearing strange armor and retaining a large banner. He really didn't feel any need to worry, so he waved his hand and put the ten thousand cavalry at the door of hell.

The 10,000 Mamluk cavalry accelerated slowly, and the sound of thousands of hooves rushing was like a drum that was constantly pounding on one hundred sides, which shook everyone's heart along the river road. The heavy armored cavalry with spears rushed towards him, like a wall made of steel.

"call……"

Zhao Fubo also let out a light breath, suppressing the excitement in his heart. In all the battles before, he had never led such a small army and had officially fought with so many army. Since it was on the Egyptian battlefield, there were at least tens of thousands of Mamluk cavalry beside him. Here, his cavalry and gunners who operated the crossbows were only 1,500.

"Prepare!"

Zhao Fubo raised his hand, and at this time his cavalry made a strange move, and many people took ropes that they didn't know what they were for.

As the entire Mamluk cavalry moved, but before they left their front line, Zhao Fubo raised his hands and called out a word.

"pull!"

This time, the sound was no longer Zhao Fubo's voice, but rather the trumpeter beside him. Under a few short and repeated notes, the cavalry holding the rope pulled it violently.

"Boom..."

The sound of the triggering caused a wave of original waves in the valley, but it was not the sound of shell explosion. The dull explosion sounded, and balls of flames rushed up among the Mamluk cavalry that had just been galloping. The flames of oil rose from the air, and in a blink of an eye, they used their cruel and beautiful flames to swallow the figures of cavalry one by one.

There was a flame in front of them, but the cavalry who were entangled among their companions could only run into them. There was a flame behind them, and the cavalry in front knew that they had no way out. They gritted their teeth and tried their best to hold their spears, but they still couldn't help but look back and see what the explosion behind them was.

Almost a wall of flames formed safely blocked their way back. The cavalry, attached to the oil, yelled sharply with his war horses, and rushed around the cavalry like crazy. But the journey of these poor cavalry had just begun.

"Free shooting!"

"Swoosh swish swish..."

Groups of arrow branches rose from the hands of the Song Dynasty Yulin Army, and even at 300 meters, the Rambo folded bow did not need to take the maximum lifting shot. Through the shooting aimed at the sight, even though the arrow branches drew a low arc, they could accurately hit the target.

The 10,000 Mamluk cavalry, like a wall-like formation, made the soldiers of the Great Song Yulin Army almost no need to aim. They would never fail if they had to shoot the arrows out. The Mamluk cavalry who were caught in the front row had painfully discovered that their heavy armor had almost no defense ability to use this kind of quadrilateral armor.

When a cavalry is caught, he can also lie on the horse's neck and try his best to stay on the horse's back, so as not to fall to the point where he is trampled to death by his own people.

"retreat……"

When the second wave of arrows was shot out, Zhao Fubo issued an order to retreat. The soldiers of the Yulin Army of the Song Dynasty quickly turned their horses and ran backwards, but like the ***ers, their arrow rain did not stop. The soldiers even needed only two legs to control the horse's movement. When the horse turned back, they could still shoot arrows at the pursuit soldiers calmly.

The distance of 300 meters is not far. It takes about 100 meters from the start of charge to increase the entire speed. The entire 300 meters takes 30 seconds if it is 10 meters per second. However, the speed from 0 to the highest level will be about 1 minute to complete the distance of 300 meters.
