Chapter 2611: All have hidden tricks
...

The archers from Jiangdong are also the elite from Jiangdong. Although their morale and organization are indeed problematic when fighting on land, they are after all carefully selected elites. When there is no close contact with the enemy, their combat effectiveness is still very reliable.

Following Lu Meng's order, the Jiangdong archers also launched a very standard volley.

As representatives of the poverty of the former Han Empire, Jiangdong archers' strengths are naturally attack power and accuracy.

There is no pursuit of extreme attack speed, nor is there pursuit of extreme attack distance, but rather the most effective attack within a limited range as much as possible.

The power of this volley of arrows, which clearly makes a sound of breaking through the air, can be judged just by listening to the sound.

Benito of the Fourteen Eagle Flags was no exception. He frowned and looked at the Han Empire army lined up in close formation. He instantly gave up the light and shadow manipulation he had switched to, and directly refreshed two defensive talents to forcibly defend against this volley.

The distance between arrows becomes very difficult to dodge due to the coordination of this volley.

Blocking and counterattacking are far less suitable than having two shields with defensive support.

Looking at the fourteen combined legions that suddenly appeared in the open space, both Wei Yan and Li Yan frowned.

Originally, the legion they needed to guard against was only a small number of Fifth Skylarks, but now it seems that they may have to add a Fourteenth Combined Legion.

The infinite combination of talents naturally leads to a variety of tactical changes, which is extremely troublesome.

The fourteen combinations in this round of volleys did not continue to rely on defensive talents for defense, but instead used their speed talents to get closer.

At the same time, Dilina, who was in the back, also waved his hand.

The Roman legions, which had been advancing slowly and steadily, instantly entered the speed of a battle charge and quickly advanced towards the Han Empire camp. While supporting the Fourteenth Combination, they also took advantage of their own manpower and put greater pressure on the Han Empire army.

Under this charge, it didn't take long for both sides to come within the range of each other's bow and arrow attacks.

As a characteristic of Rome, the shortbow legion, which learned from the Parthian legion and put it into practice, also burst out with a terrifying shooting speed, directly covering the front-line legion where Wei Yan and Li Yan were located.

As for suppressing the Jiangdong archers, this option did not appear in Dilina's consideration.

On the one hand, it is difficult for the auxiliary army corps' short archers to carry out such long-range attacks. On the other hand, the appearance of the Jiangdong archers did not look very scary.

There is neither terrifying attack speed nor daunting attack power. Conventional heavy infantry can defend against such attacks. I don’t know what the point of such archers is?

Facing the arrows shot from the Roman shortbows, Wei Yan simply signaled the soldiers to conduct normal defense.

The talents from the infantry battalion were enough for them to easily deal with this kind of arrows. Without power, relying only on pure speed, there was no way to break the defense of the infantry battalion. As for the Danyang elites in Li Yan's hands, they were a legion that was extremely good at multi-weapon coordination. Naturally, they also had heavy tower shields that were enough to protect the soldiers from long-range attacks. Naturally, they had no problem dealing with this kind of shortbow shooting.

"So that's how it is. The Fourteenth Combined Legion can achieve this level. No wonder they told us to be careful of the Fifth Skylark. It seems there is a reason for that." Lu Meng looked at his own archers and started the second round of drawing the bow and drawing the arrows again. He then looked at the two armies that were about to start fighting in the distance and smiled.

Shortbow Legion or something, if it were cavalry, it would be fine, but they are just light infantry, die!
At the moment when the infantry of both sides were confirmed to be fighting, Lu Meng also directly displayed his talent. At the same time, he solidified the clouds in his area, looked into the distance, drew his sword, pointed to the distance and said, "As the first baptizer of my talent, please admire me. Legion talent: split baptism!"

The light green glow instantly enveloped the entire Jiangdong Archer Corps, making the bows and arrows in the hands of all Jiangdong archers directly wrapped in a layer of light green glow.

How could the Jiangdong archers, who were able to walk on land and attack from ships, not have the ability to survive in the world?

Directly solidify the cloud, directly extract a large amount of the cloud, strengthen the arrow itself, but the arrow itself is not conspicuous, and looks as large as a pistol.

And in the darkness, this behavior is particularly dazzling.

The newly-formed legion commander Dilina also witnessed this scene, and he immediately signaled the troops in the rear, "Suppress the longbowmen!"

Although it is not clear what the Han Empire’s army is doing, there will be no problem if we interrupt it in advance.

The longbow archers, who had already been prepared and were ready to fire, also shot arrows at the area where Lu Meng was after hearing the order.

It was so conspicuous late at night, making it an obvious target.

The longbow archers who were the last to fire shot arrows that flew directly across the night sky.

"Sure enough, each of these guys has a hidden trick up his sleeve. Sima Zhongda's guess is really accurate." Xu Huang took a look at the brilliance of the rear army. It was so dazzling that he couldn't help but shook his head.

Then he used atmospheric manipulation to make the longbow arrows flying from the Roman Empire fly at a higher angle, allowing these arrows to directly pass over Lu Meng's Jiangdong Archer Corps and strike further back in the military camp.

"Damn it, it's so obvious that these guys can't hit the target?" Dilina looked at the result, turned around and started cursing on the spot.

How could he miss the target in such a conspicuous area late at night?
"Shoot!" Lu Meng swung his sword, and the Jiangdong archers instantly released the arrows in their hands. Then the momentum of the entire legion dropped again, and at the same time, it no longer flashed with dazzling light, and returned to normal in the dark night.

Only the flashing arrows across the sky heralded the beginning of the attack. There were also many people who witnessed this attack.

"We don't have such means?! It seems that the Han Empire's military camp was indeed attacked, but Duke, Benito launched the attack according to the original plan." Usnafaso said calmly and steadily, looking at the dense green light in the distant sky.

"In that case, let's press on and force the Han Empire's army to make concessions. How dare a mere cavalry block our advance?" When Ganasis saw this scene, he became much more satisfied with Benito. It seemed that he did not need to be sent to a military court.
