"Woooo~Woooooo~Woooooo~"

The sound of desolate horns resounded throughout the sky. Guan Yu and Zhao Yun came out of the battle and welcomed Liu Xie back to the formation. Under the command of generals at all levels, the Han army soldiers quickly formed a formation and slowly advanced towards the Jizhou army. On the other hand, Yuan Shao's army was also under the command of Yuan Shao, oppressing the imperial army.

180,000 is less than 120,000. In terms of quantity, Yuan Shao won firmly.

The archers from both sides slowly approached. When approaching the land of an arrow, they stopped at the same time under the order of the generals of both sides, quickly bent their bows and arrows, pointing to the sky with oblique angles.

"So dazzling!" A Yuan army archer had just put on his pose. At this moment, he pulled the bow from this angle, and his eyes were facing the scorching sun in the sky. Many people's eyes were affected by the scorching sun and lost their judgment. Some even subconsciously wanted to wipe their eyes. Before the general's order was made, many arrows had already broken through the air and landed crookedly on the open space in front of the Han army formation.

"What's going on!? Who gave the order??" Yuan Shao was furious when he saw this.

"Shoot the arrow!" Just when Yuan Shao was angry, Huang Zhong sneered in the Han army formation opposite and issued an order to shoot the arrow. The Han army's archers were equipped with the latest powerful bow. Although they were not as powerful as the crossbow arrows of the Divine Crossbow Camp, their range was ten steps further than the previous standard bows!

It didn't sound much, but at this moment, the power that burst out would definitely make Yuan Shao's heart bleeding. Just when Yuan Jun's archers' eyes were directly shining by the sun and could not see things clearly, the sight suddenly became dark, and the sun was blocked by something. Before these archers could be glad, the rain of arrows that covered the sky and the sun had fallen. In an instant, screams were endless, and Yuan Jun's archers fell to the ground.

"The sword and shield hand comes forward to protect the archer!" Yuan Shao looked at the tragic situation in front of him, his eyes were so bitter that he was furious. At this moment, he didn't care why his archer suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Tian Feng raised his head, and the dazzling sunlight made him feel uncomfortable. He then reacted and said to Yuan Shao: "Lord, it was the emperor's plan. He deliberately delayed time. When the sun was west and his back was facing the Han army, our soldiers had to face the sunlight. The sight would inevitably be discomfortable before they would be taken advantage of by the enemy! Moreover, the enemy's archery range seemed to be much further than our archery range."

"Damn it!" Yuan Shao gritted his teeth and looked at the fallen archers in front of him. In just one round, Yuan Jun lost at least thousands of excellent archers, and immediately shouted: "The shield hand protects the archers to advance twenty steps and fight back!"

Tian Feng opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. At this time, Liu Xie had already taken the lead and pushed forward in a hurry, which would only cause chaos. However, the military order had been issued. If you persuade him at this moment, it would only make the army even more chaotic. He had lost the lead and his morale was hit to a certain extent. At this time, even if the military order was wrong, it would not be disordered.

"Shield hand comes forward to protect the archer!" Seeing the enemy's advance, Liu Xie smiled slightly. Yuan Shao's heart was already tossed by him. Now he is in a hurry to start the war. Although the impact of vision cannot be fatal, in a battle of 100,000 units, even if it is only one percent of the probability of impact, it is still quite a lot. At least the initiative has been obtained by Liu Xie because of this reason and the advantage of range.

Amid the whimpering horn, a Han military shield came forward holding a large shield. These shield hands were not abandoned. There was only one large shield, which was a professional shield hand. However, this shield is different from ordinary shields, as high as one meter, with canine teeth at the edges, and has a certain attack power. Moreover, the thickness of the shield is not comparable to ordinary shields. It is wrapped in cowhide. It is difficult to damage ordinary swords. If you want to break the shield, the effect of blunt weapons is better than that of sharp weapons. Unfortunately, in this era, most of the troops use swords, guns, swords and halberds as weapons, and there are few special blunt weapons troops. It is not easy to break their own shield formation now.

The advantage of weapons is another key to affecting the battlefield factors. Shield soldiers seem useless, but in fact they are the key to affecting the outcome of the war. They will first put their side invincible.

Sharp clusters of arrows continued to fall from the sky. Even with shield protection, it was impossible to ensure that all the enemy's arrow rain could be blocked. After Yuan Shao found that the range was not as high as the opponent, he decisively ordered the archers to advance with the sword and shield hands. The arrow clusters of both sides continued to meet in the air and then fell into the camps of both sides. From time to time, unlucky soldiers were killed by the arrow clusters falling from the sky. However, if casualties were really calculated, the damage of the Yuan army's soldiers would be at least 50% more than that of the Han army. The strong shield as high as one meter made the enemy archers' range of killing greatly narrowed. On the Yuan army, the round shield with a 3-foot radius undoubtedly exposed a much larger shooting area.

"rush!"

After both sides approached fifty steps, the Yuan army general gave the order and the Yuan army began to charge.

"Shield formation, stand!" The Han general did not charge forward, and large shields hit the ground hard, and the canine-shaped edge pierced into the ground, making the shields seem to have taken root. The spear soldiers closely following the climate pierced three meters of spears from the gaps of the shield formation, and the cold spear edges gathered into dense jungle of death.

"Bang bang bang~" A famous sword and shield hand hit the tall shield hard, making a dull and muffled sound.

The Han army's shield formation did not move at all. Instead, many sword and shield hands pushed by the soldiers behind, screaming and hitting the spear on the edge of the shield, and their entire body was pierced.

"Human wall! Kill in!" A general immediately shouted when he saw that it was difficult to shake the other party's shield formation.

Yuan Jun, who was already blocking the front, immediately raised the shield high above and carried it on his shoulder. The sword and shield hand behind him stepped on the shield and jumped up on the shield. The shield in his hand pressed on the canine-like edge above the Han army's large shield. He flipped over the shield, but he didn't look closely and slashed it.

The spearman in the rear had no time to withdraw his weapon, so he was killed by the opponent's sword.

"Kill!" The shield in the back row suddenly pulled up, followed by the side. The spearmen hiding behind the shield quickly grabbed it, assassinating Yuan Jun's sword and shield hand that was leaping over with one shot, and then quickly retreated back to the back of the shield.

More swords, shields and even pikemen passed over the shield. The shields in the front row and the spearmen under the protection of the shield were constantly killed, but the spearmen who came out from behind were also constantly assassinating the Yuan army soldiers who were leaping over the shield. The fighting sounded along with shrill screams and sounded on the battlefield. The archers on both sides kept pouring arrows towards each other, and the front line gradually opened, stretching for more than ten miles. The entire white horse seemed to be covered by the bloody breath, and life became as humble as grass at this moment.

"Are you ready?" Liu Xie, standing on the high platform, looked at the battlefield expressionlessly. No matter the casualties of the enemy or his own army, he could not cause any turmoil in his heart. At this moment, he was not only the emperor, but also the commander of the three armies. Although he felt sorry for the soldiers who died in battle, there were no ones that could not die in the war. As the head coach, what he had to do was to minimize the number of casualties in the overall situation, rather than paying attention to one-sided gains and losses. At this time, the life of the entire battlefield was just a game of chess in his eyes. For the final victory, abandoning his son is necessary.

"I have been prepared, I am waiting for the orders of Your Majesty!" Seeing the battle situation in front of me, Liu Bei bowed and said.

"Then let's show it out!" Liu Xie narrowed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and waved the flag in his hand.

"Woooo~Woooooo~Woooooooo~Woooooooooooooo"

With the sound of three long and one short horns, the entire battlefield suddenly changed. The Han army archers retreated quickly, and at the same time, a large number of shield players in the front row also retreated quickly, while the shield players left on both sides quickly added empty spaces and blocked the empty space left on both sides of the retreating shield player. It was difficult to feel anything on the battlefield, but from the high platform, I saw that the entire front of the Han army suddenly fell into a large area, but there was no chaos. Yuan Jun followed the shield player back naturally.

This is a very dangerous move. Once there is any mistake, retreating will lead to a defeat. At the same time, the Han army's rear formation, one mini-panel catapult cart that is less than one meter long, less than three meter wide, and only two meter high was pushed out, with a total of fifty ones.

Liu Bei bowed and said, "These catapults have been tried. They are not as powerful as catapults, and their range is only 60 steps, but their accuracy and launch frequency are far higher than that of normal catapults. They can fire three stone bombs in a cup of tea. However, the weight of the stone bomb is not high, and they can only shoot five kilograms of stone bombs. If they are heavy, the range will be reduced and the accuracy will also be greatly deviated."

"Five kilograms are enough. Debug immediately, the target is where!" Liu Xie pointed to the empty space where the Han army's shield hands were sunk. At this moment, a large number of Yuan's troops were occupying it and attacking the shield formation frantically. Because of the continuous retreat, some chaos in the shield formation inevitably occurred. At this moment, under the crazy attack of Yuan's army, there were signs of collapse.

"Here!" Liu Bei agreed, turned around and waved the order flag at the Han army's back formation.

"Cruff~"

Amidst the harsh sounds, fifty catapults quickly pushed to the battlefield under the push of the strongman. The harsh sound of wood friction was covered by the fighting on the battlefield. Yuan Jun naturally could not hear anything from such a distance.

These mini trenchers are not as bulky as catapults. They have wooden wheels underneath the trenchers. Although the speed is not as slow as that of the normal army, it is not slower. Otherwise, it would not be possible to be transported to the front line with the army.

In the Yuan army's army, watching the Han army's central army suddenly retreat, Tian Feng had already noticed something was wrong. Although he knew that it was not suitable to affect Yuan Shao's judgment at this time, he still suggested: "Lord, if the enemy's sudden retreat, there must be a plan, so be careful."

Yuan Shao frowned and nodded. He was not a fool, so he naturally didn't think that the Han army suddenly retreated because of Yuan's pressure. However, he couldn't say why he retreated. At this moment, he could only order generals at all levels to be careful. At this moment, a burst of air suddenly came from the air. The two of them quickly looked at each other, and their eyes gradually widened.
