My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1103: Advancing at a crawler-like speed! General Wang Ben is coming to join us!
The Z-shaped formation maintained its basic structure as it passed Tu Sui's troops, and then quickly shrank into a square formation. The shield soldiers placed their shields neatly on the ground, and the crossbowmen in the formation looked around vigilantly.

Immediately afterwards, the Chou formation advanced closely along the edge of the Zi formation and stopped when it reached fifty feet to the southeast of the Zi formation.

Seeing five barbarians galloping towards him from afar, Li Bo calmly ordered: "Don't pay any attention to them, Yinbu keeps moving forward!"

Hearing Li Bo's order, the Yin-shaped formation stood up and moved forward, finally setting up a formation a hundred feet southwest of the Zi-shaped formation.

Faced with this familiar step-by-step pressure, almost all the soldiers of the Erlechin tribe focused their attention on Li Bo's troops. Dozens of bandits gathered hundreds of soldiers and rushed towards the Yin-shaped square formation.

Seeing this, Li Bo gave an order in a deep voice: "Zi, Chou, and Yin crossbowmen, listen up, target the invading enemy."

"A round of flat shots!"

Li Bo did not use the three-round shooting method commonly used in large-scale troop operations, but simply ordered the three crossbowmen to shoot all the crossbow arrows.

In an instant, fifteen hundred crossbow arrows penetrated the entire battlefield like fifteen hundred fishing nets, covering the heads of all the bandits who stepped into the crossfire!

"This is the formation that General Li of Zhao often uses. Report it to the king immediately! General Li is coming to kill us!"

"It's the Li flag! I saw the Li flag! Retreat! Retreat!"

"Don't panic! The General Li in this battle is our ally. The enemy on the other side will definitely not be General Li. Charge forward! The enemy's crossbows have been fired, and now is our chance to kill them!"

The familiar saturation fire cross network awakened the fear engraved in the bones of some Donghu veterans.

Although they escaped from the battlefield alive, they will never forget the mountains of corpses and seas of blood created by that battle, nor will they forget the general flag with the word "Li" on it that chased them and killed them!

The Donghu generals shouted and rebuked, and finally stabilized the morale of the army a little, driving the remaining dozens of Hu bandits to continue rushing towards Yin's troops.

Facing these scattered enemy troops, Li Bo said in a deep voice: "Mao troops continue to move forward."

"Chief Yin, take the archer and shoot the remaining enemies!"

In Li Boyin's unit, more than twenty Qin soldiers who were originally hunters hid behind the shield soldiers, staring at the Hu bandits who were rushing towards them.

Although both sides are holding bows, the effective range of the longbow is mostly two to three times that of the shortbow!
Before both sides came into the shortbow range, Chief Yin's archer had already pulled the bowstring and shot the arrow in his hand!

Twenty arrows flew through the air, knocking eight of the bandits off their horses. The remaining bandits looked even more terrified, and couldn't help but shouting, "Be careful of the enemy's archers! Get out of the way!"

"Get down low on your horse! Shoot a round with your bow and run away!"

"Quick! Don't be stingy with your horsepower, just charge!"

The remaining dozens of Hu bandits hurriedly lay down on the horse's back, ran into the shortbow throwing range, shot the arrows in their hands without aiming, and then rode away without looking back.

This is a tactic commonly used by the barbarians, but it seems particularly hasty at this moment.

Li Bo finally cast his eyes towards the fleeing barbarians, with a hint of regret: "It's a pity that Grandpa is not here, otherwise he would not have let these barbarians get away!"

"Ubu, move forward!"

Under Li Bo's command, the phalanxes were like playing the PLUS version of the "Crossing the River by Feeling the Stones" game in the fun sports meeting. Twelve phalanxes remained motionless, while the phalanx at the back advanced to the front. If it stood firm and the situation was right, the new phalanx at the back would stand up and advance. The thirteen phalanxes advanced in a crawler-like manner step by step.

Each phalanx was always within the range of friendly crossbows during its advance, and there were two mobile forces advancing along with the main force, ready to provide support to a certain phalanx or direction at any time.

If a small group of Hu bandits attacks, at least three troops can form a crossfire network, and then there are longbowmen who can shoot at scattered Hu bandits to avoid disturbance.

And if the Hu bandits launched a general attack, Li Bo's troops would always have 14/15 of their forces lined up in battle formation, ready for a decisive battle at any time.

This tactic sacrificed more than 90% of the mobility, making Li Bo's troops move as slowly as a turtle. It took them one or two hours to cover a distance of just a hundred feet.

However, this tactic also made the battle line of Li Bo's troops very stable, making it impossible for the Hu bandits to attack. While the battle line of Li Bo's troops at the front was stable, Tu Sui's troops following closely behind were able to form a long formation and block the northward passage between Dongpo Mountain and Xiaonigou!

Seeing from afar that the battlefield space in the north was being slowly but firmly compressed, Bater's eyes were solemn: "Wu'an Jun, Li Mu!"

According to the records of the tribe, when Zhao and Tungus went to war, Wu'an Jun of Zhao used this ridiculously slow tactic to annihilate the main force of Tungus, and then suddenly accelerated the pace to hunt down Tungus, which led to Tungus's great defeat.

And today, the past that the Great Shaman told me reappeared before Bater's eyes, and the experience of disastrous defeat also gave Bater a flash of inspiration in his mind.

Bater looked toward the northeastern Qin army's banner, then toward the northward Li Bo's troops, and murmured softly, "The enemy left the Tungus warriors no room to gallop freely, and tied up the horses' hooves with invisible ropes, forcing our Tungus warriors to fight to the death with the enemy in a narrow area."

"And then use their spears and heavy crossbows to kill our Tungus warriors!"

"This is true for Wu'an Jun, and so is Chang'an Jun!"

After realizing this, Bater shouted anxiously: "Pass on my order!"

"The Yamanpan tribe must cross the Beiyishui River at all costs, and immediately move south to Taiping Valley, and then cross the Beiyishui River again in the northeast direction through Taiping Valley. We must hold on..."

Before Battelle finished giving the order, a roar suddenly reached Battelle's ears.

"kill!!!"

Bater immediately turned his head and looked back. Although he could not see the light reflected by the armor in the south, his eyes were filled with despair. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "The central army is heading south!"

"Defend the North Yishui River at all costs!!!" At the same time.

Su Jiao stepped hard on the fishing boat and jumped onto the north bank of the Beiyi River. He looked at the short Gaoyi soldiers with their faces painted with unknown paint not far away and shouted in a deep voice: "Soldiers!"

"The commander-in-chief is fighting a bloody battle on the east bank of the Juma River to seize the opportunity for our army. Our army must not let the commander-in-chief down!"

"Get ashore quickly!"

At the same time, Deng Ming also jumped up and shouted angrily: "In the Battle of Zhuocheng, although we followed orders, hundreds of our comrades died under the arrows of the Hu bandits."

"This hatred must be avenged!"

"Soldiers, revenge!"

Qu Lu and the other 2500 leaders all roared in anger: "Kill!!!"

Three thousand vanguards, led by two captains, Deng Ming and Su Jiao, rushed to the river bank and quickly built a defensive line around the river bank, opening a landing channel for their comrades in the rear.

Although Battelle's order had not yet arrived, Yamanpan knew very well that he must not allow the enemy army to advance directly.

Even though he was a little afraid, Yamanpan still had to bite the bullet and shout, "Da Dui Ludular's troops advance to the river bank!"

"Quick! Don't give the Qin army a chance to shoot with crossbows!"

"The great lord Lusamajiel led his knights to hide behind Dural's troops, using Dural's troops as a shield against arrows."

"Once you find an opportunity, disrupt the enemy's formation immediately!"

Seeing more than 10,000 Gaoyi infantrymen rushing forward with wooden shields carved with ghost faces and strange beasts, Wang Ben, who was standing on the south bank of the Beiyi River, said calmly: "Send a message to the two divisions of Captain Su Jiao and Captain Deng Ming."

"On the north bank of the Yishui River, form a square formation, with the crossbowmen in the front. Don't be stingy with your crossbow arrows."

"Diffuse fire to repel the enemy and gain space for our comrades in the rear!"

With the command flags waving, the crossbowmen led by Su Jiao and Deng Ming immediately advanced and formed a three-round shooting formation at the forefront of the Qin army.

They stretched out their thumbs to measure the distance between the two armies. When the Gaoyi infantrymen were completely within the range of the Qin crossbows, Su Jiao and Deng Ming shouted in unison: "Shoot!"

"Boom boom boom~~~"

Accompanied by the sound of bowstrings exploding, more than 4,000 crossbow arrows shot into the sky, slid along a perfect parabola, and fell towards Gao Yi's troops.

Dular shouted at the top of his lungs: "Raise your shields! Shield soldiers, cover the archers! Keep moving forward! Forward!"

"Only by killing the enemy can you survive!"

"Anyone who dares to retreat will be killed without mercy!"

The Gaoyi soldiers clenched their wooden shields tightly and continued to charge forward despite the rain of crossbow arrows. However, the Gaoyi's armor and equipment were inferior to those of the Donghu, and their fighting will could not be transformed into defensive power. How could they withstand the heavy bronze crossbow arrows?

"Charge! Run faster! Faster! As long as we can get close to the enemy, we will win!"

"Put your shield on me, I am the archer!"

"The shield has been shot through. Report to the Great Lord quickly. Our shields may not be able to stop the enemy's arrows!"

For every ten feet, dozens of Gaoyi soldiers would die on the battlefield.

Corpses and blood formed a bloody path leading to the Qin army!
After paying the price of more than a thousand lives of soldiers, Gao Yi's front troops finally reached seventy feet in front of Su Jiao's troops.

Dular breathed a sigh of relief and shouted, "Archers, listen up! No need to aim at the enemy, just stay behind your shields."

"All archers hold armor-piercing arrows and shoot them in the direction of the enemy!"

"Shield soldiers are in front, and spear soldiers are on standby!"

Samajir also spoke in a deep voice: "All units, disperse, immediately expand to the left and right sides, and shoot the enemy troops on the boats."

"If you encounter enemy crossbows, retreat here immediately!"

More than 3,000 Gaoyi archers drew their bows and shot armor-piercing arrows towards the Qin army.

More than 10,000 Gaoyi archers took advantage of the opportunity when the Qin army's attention was focused on Dular's tribe, and immediately rushed out from behind Dular's tribe, pulling the bowstrings towards the weak points in the formations of Su Jiao and Deng Ming's tribes, or rushing around from behind and shooting arrows at the Qin army on the fishing boats.

Facing Gao Yi's resistance, Wang Ben said calmly: "Stop using fishing boats to transport troops, and order Su Jiao and Deng Ming to stand firmly on the river bank. We don't seek victory, but only to keep the formation in order."

"Order Captain Wang Pan to immediately transfer the baggage transported from the rear to the commander's army!"

"Please report this to the commander-in-chief on my behalf."

"I, General Wang Ben, follow the commander's orders and come to join the army!"
