Three Kingdoms: Wolong's brother-in-law, tricking Liu Bei into seizing Jingzhou

In the Han army camp, the soldiers had a sumptuous meal. The steaming hot food not only dispelled the coldness in their bodies, but also filled their bodies with strength. Everyone was in high spirits and morale.

As dusk quietly approaches, the sky is gradually dyed with a gorgeous orange-red color.

The gate of the Han army camp slowly opened.

The Han army soldiers marched out of the camp in an orderly manner with neat steps and quickly formed up in the open field.

Their eyes revealed determination and courage, and the battle flags fluttered in the breeze.

The setting sun was blood-red, slowly setting in the west, covering the entire earth in golden color.

At the same time, the heavy city gate of Yumen Pass slowly opened, making a creaking sound.

The Yuezhi army poured out of the city gate like a tide. With their backs against the solid city, they quickly formed a battle line and formed a standoff with the Han army in front of the city gate.

The two armies were in strict formation, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

On the top of the city wall, Cao Rui stared at the battlefield below, his eyes full of anticipation, and his hands unconsciously clenched the railing.

"Xiao Fang, today I will let you have a taste of the power of the Yuezhi people.

The Yuezhi army has always been mainly composed of cavalry, and its military strength is far superior to yours. In this battle, Yama will definitely have a great chance of winning."

He seemed to have seen the tragic defeat of the Han army. The corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a barely perceptible sneer.

Sima Yi, who was standing aside, calmly analyzed:
“The Yuezhi were originally a nomadic people, and the grasslands where their country was located were vast and boundless.

Therefore, the Yuezhi army has always used cavalry as its main combat force, with infantry only serving as an auxiliary.

They are good at field battles but not good at capturing cities.

Now, fighting in the wilderness is what they are best at.

Moreover, the Han army is mainly composed of infantry, with few cavalry, so Yama has a good chance of winning this battle."

The look in his eyes seemed as if everything was under his control.

After listening to Sima Yi's analysis, Cao Rui felt relieved and calmed down, ready to enjoy the "good show" that was about to take place.

He was already imagining the scene in which the Yuezhi army won a great victory and the Han army was routed, and he couldn't help feeling a surge of satisfaction in his heart.

In the center of the Yuezhi army, Yama looked towards the Han army with contempt.

It can be seen that in the Han army camp, infantry accounted for the vast majority, and cavalry were very few.

The corners of Yama's mouth slightly raised, revealing a contemptuous smile:

"The Han army's cavalry dared to come out to fight. They really overestimated their own capabilities!"

Yama's confidence instantly exploded, as if victory was just around the corner, so he shouted an order:
"Pass the order down, have the cavalry attack the Han army from both wings and wipe out the Han army!"

The Yuezhi battle flag fluttered in the wind.

"Woooooo~~"

A deep and stirring trumpet sounded.

The Yuezhi cavalry rushed towards the two wings of the Han army like arrows. The sound of horse hooves shook the earth and the dust raised covered the sky.

On the top of the city wall, when Cao Rui saw this scene, excitement instantly surged in his eyes, as if he saw the dawn of victory.

“I hope the Yuezhi can defeat the Xiao thief!
If this is the case, then there is hope for the restoration of the Great Qin!"

As he spoke, he clasped his hands together and prayed silently.

In the Han army camp, the Han soldiers' faces were slightly moved when they saw the Yuezhi army rushing in like a tide, but there was no fear in their eyes.

They held their weapons tightly in their hands, and their feet were as firm as nails, not moving an inch.

Everyone had only one firm thought in their mind:

Follow Xiao Xiang to fight and you will be invincible!
Even if the enemy is the Yuezhi Hu people from a foreign land, they firmly believe that they will win!
"Yama is so crazy to send out cavalry when the battle starts..."

Facing the surging attack of the Yuezhi cavalry, Xiao raised a sarcastic sneer at the corner of his mouth and his eyes revealed disdain.

The enemy cavalry came at full speed like a torrent, and the sound of their horses' hooves was deafening.

Three hundred steps!
Two hundred steps!
One hundred steps!

The enemy gradually entered the range of the crossbows. Xiao Fang's eyes focused and he shouted:
"The crossbows have appeared, let the Yuezhi people open their eyes!"

At the order, the central flag waved quickly.

On both wings, the originally tight shield formation slowly cracked, and the crossbowmen appeared like ghosts.

They held crossbows in their hands and aimed firmly at the Yuezhi cavalry.

This is where Xiao Fang’s confidence comes from.

It turned out that the spies had already reported that the Yuezhi people were mainly composed of cavalry.

The best weapon to deal with cavalry is a strong bow and crossbow.

So Xiao Fang carefully prepared half of the crossbowmen, and they were powerful repeating crossbows!
After the crossbowmen appeared, the Yuezhi army did not take them seriously and continued to rush towards them like crazy.

The next moment, the horn sounded again, and the sound seemed like the call of the god of death.

The crossbowmen pulled the trigger at the same time.

"Uuuuuu——"

A loud noise suddenly arose, as if thousands of troops were galloping.

Sharp arrows shot out like a rainstorm, forming a sharp blade wall in the air, and crushed the cavalry fiercely.

The next moment, a sharp arrow struck like lightning.

The Yuezhi cavalry were thrown to the ground in an instant, and blood spurted like a fountain.

In an instant, the Yuezhi cavalry were nailed down in a pool of blood by the Han army's sharp arrows, and screams suddenly rang out, as if they were wails from hell.

The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood.

In just one round of attacks, thousands of Yuezhi cavalry were killed by the hail of crossbow arrows.

The surviving Yuezhi cavalry had no time to stop and crashed into their companions, causing chaos.

The Yuezhi cavalry collapsed in an instant.

Everyone who saw this scene felt terrified, as if they were in a nightmare.

Yamana's originally conceited expression disappeared in an instant, and a look of horror appeared on his face.

"How is it possible? How is it possible?

You shot down my cavalry in the blink of an eye?

What kind of crossbow is that?"

His face was as pale as paper, his eyes were full of fear and confusion, and the long sword in his hand began to tremble slightly.

When he passed Yumen Pass, Cao Rui’s face turned pale with shock, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world.

Sima Yi also widened his eyes and exclaimed:
"Repeating crossbow, this thief Xiao actually made a repeating crossbow!"

Cao Rui took a deep breath and felt his legs go weak. He almost couldn't stand and his body swayed. Fortunately, he held on to the city wall.

Sima Yi's hands froze in place, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"Damn it, how on earth did this thief Xiao do it?"

In this way, Xiao Fang used the crossbows to destroy the Yuezhi cavalry in one fell swoop.

Sima Yi was shocked and stunned, his back was already soaked with cold sweat.

In the Han army, Ma Su exclaimed:

"The Yuezhi people have finally opened their eyes to the power of the crossbow."

Xiao Fang sneered and ordered:
"Pass on my order, Han cavalry, attack!"

"Boom-boom-boom!"

The passionate drums sounded.

The Han army's front line quickly split up, revealing the cavalry that had been hidden for a long time.

Zhang Bao led the way, charging out like a bolt of black lightning at the Yuezhi army. (End of this chapter)
