Ma Chao, Yan Xing, Pang De and others began to retreat, while the Bingzhou army led by Lu Bu followed closely behind.

There are three small hills to the west of Chencang County, namely Pipa Mountain, Zhenyan Mountain and Mudao Mountain. Only by passing through these three hills can you reach the west of the city. Behind these three hills is surrounded by the two-back beams, Longzhao Mountain, Tongshan and other mountains behind them...

And controlling these dangerous places and condescendingly against the enemy is Liu Qi's strategy.

After Lu Bu's troops approached, the Jingzhou troops who were ambushing on the mountain began to throw wooden javelins and lay bows and arrows down.

This is the so-called fortress checkpoint, the ancient and modern principles. The checkpoints set by Liu Qi are also the key points that the Bingzhou Army needs to capture one by one.

"This is the style of the Jingzhou Army! It is quite similar to Sun Wentai." Lu Bu rode on the Red Rabbit Horse and ran back and forth between the scene. The war in front of him reminded him of the battle in Yangren City.

At the beginning of Yangren City, Sun Jian's tactics were almost exactly the same as Liu Qi's current tactical arrangements. It is no wonder that Sun Jian was the first tactical master who Liu Qi came into contact with after this era. It is not an exaggeration to say that Sun Jian was Liu Qi's war enlightener.

"Who dares to attack Shanli! To boost the three armies!" Lu Bu shouted loudly.

"The last official is willing to go." With a plain answer, Gao Shun led his elite troops to turn around and attack the small hill set up by the Jingzhou army.

Liu Qi saw that Gao Shun led an army toward the first small hill in the west, Li, where was the first card guarded by Lei Yu.

The mountain is steep and dense, and the forests are dense. Thunder encounters many rolling stones on the top of the mountain, and there are even three small stone throwing cannons. Gao Shun arrived, and immediately, the arrows were fired at once, and the cannon stones flew across and hit them down.

Liu Qi still had high hopes for Lei Yu because he was the brother of Shu general Lei Tong. In history, Lei Tong was reused after Liu Bei entered Sichuan and had the power to lead troops alone. Therefore, Liu Qi felt that Shu generals like the Lei brothers could grow up as representative figures in the future as Yizhou power.

Since the previous appointment of Wu Yi as the governor of Wudu County, Liu Qi has gradually begun to support the figures of the Yizhou military system.

Gao Shun's soldiers had already started charging and attacked the Shanka guarded by Lei Yu.

For a moment, arrows fell like rain and rocks were shot. Gao Shun's army was quickly repelled - but it seemed that it retreated a little too quickly, unlike the style that the Bingzhou army should have.

In Liu Qi's impression, the soldiers in Bingzhou are all a group of wolves and will never give up easily before they bite their prey.

"Strange?" Fa Zheng said in confusion, "If it was a feint, it would have been too fake. If it was a strong attack, it shouldn't have been knocked back so quickly? Could it be that Lu Bu's man had some tricks?"

Liu Qi was also a little strange. This was indeed not Lu Bu's style!

Just as he was thinking, Gao Shun's army's second attack on the mountain began again.

This time, there was still a clamor to advance, and the killing sound moved the sky, but when thunder encountered a counterattack, Gao Shun's army was repelled again.

"I can't understand. Perhaps, Lu Bu is just using it to attract our army's attention to relocate our army's defense? Then he will find a gap to cross the level and rob Chen Cang?" Fa Zheng solicited Liu Qi's opinion.

Liu Qi didn't understand it. Although he was now a veteran on the battlefield, he did not see the enemy's strategy, because such an attack could not cause any damage to the Jingzhou army, whether it was a feint or a strong attack.

Liu Qi and Fa Zheng looked at each other at the same time and said, "No matter what, there is only one target for all the people guarding Shanli in the west, that is, to support our army, Chen Cang, and respond to all changes in the same way."

"Tell the order in flag language to tell the people of the Xishan Mountain that the enemy will not attack the hillside and will not throw arrows and stones."

"only!"

At this time, guarding the west mountain were a group of surrendered generals from Shu led by Yan Yan.

When they saw Liu Qi's flag words, they immediately ordered someone to reply with the flag to show that they knew.

Lei Yu, who was guarding the easternmost defense line, waved his hand to Chen Cangcheng on the top of the mountain and made a clear gesture.

Although the distance is far, because they are all on high places, Liu Qi can still see it vaguely.

"Fortunately, this kid is not stupid." Liu Qi said with a smile.

Before he finished speaking, Lei Yu on the top of the mountain shook his body as if he was hit hard. Then, under the gaze of the two armies, he fell from the top of the mountain with the screams of thousands of troops. His not-so-tall body fell straight into the grass and disappeared.

This time it changed, and everyone was stunned.

At the same time, Gao Shunjun suddenly changed his routine, shouted like crazy, and rushed towards the mountain.

The defenders on the hilltop lost their command and were in chaos. Although they were still fighting back, Gao Shun's army refused to give in and rushed and attacked fiercely.

"What happened? How could Lei Yu fall down from the mountain?" Liu Qi slapped the battlements of the city wall with his hands, his tone quite angry.

Very simply, he actually lost another Sima in a confused way!

But it's too far away, no one can see clearly what's going on.

"It's Lu Bu, it should be Lu Bu!" Fa Zheng sighed: "He must have taken advantage of the opportunity of two feint attacks and took a chance to lurk halfway up the mountain. It is said that Lu Bu's divine power is unparalleled and has the magical arrow technique that is no less than Huang Zhong. He used arrows to snipe Lei Yu there!"

The reason why Fa Zheng said this is because he has also heard of Lu Bu's reputation for being brave for a long time, and he could not find an explanation for the moment, so he said this.

However, although Fa Zheng also practiced the Six Arts on weekdays, he was not very happy with the method of bowing. He was just a rough understanding. Therefore, he only said some words based on his conjecture.

But Liu Qi was deeply involved in bowing techniques and practiced diligently almost every day. Almost all famous bowing techniques masters like Huang Zhong and Taishi Ci have guided him.

Liu Qi frowned and said, "No... At that distance, he shot from the bottom. Even if it is a five-stone strong bow, I am afraid he can't shoot it. Even if Lu Bu is a god, can he still drive a ten-stone strong bow? He is not a human at all."

Just as Liu Qi was talking on the city, Gao Shun and his group had already rushed to the first peak.

The sword in his hand swung like a giant dragon coming out of water, like a strange python turning over, the sword light flashed, and the chill was refreshing.

The soldiers of the Jingzhou Army shouted and rushed to meet the enemy, but were also repelled by the infantry behind him. The infantrymen were good at fighting, and they advanced and retreated in moderation, with excellent quality.

Whether it is an attack or a formation, the infantry can proceed in an orderly manner. In such a tense situation of fighting between the two armies, the soldiers' behavior was very calm. They were as calm as if they were not doing a tough battle with real swords and guns, but were conducting a military exercise.

"So amazing, there are such infantry under Lu Bu's command?" Fa Zheng said in surprise: "Didn't the Xiliang Army and the Bingzhou Army be famous all over the world by their cavalry?"

"That should be the trapped camp, and the leader is Gao Shun." Liu Qi looked at the infantry in the reserve army at the foot of the mountain, erecting a large flag with the word "high" and as if he had some realization.

With Gao Shun's climb, the formal attacks of the other Bingzhou troops also began.

They began to attack other mountain li, which was placed in Jingzhou garrison, extended from the high ground of Chencang, and was about 200 meters high, and was located at the westernmost end of the corridor east of Chencang.

The infantry of the Bingzhou Army held high a shield, braved the Jingzhou Army's bows and arrows and rolling trees, and attacked from the bottom and launched a fierce attack.

Lei Yu's death aroused the alert of the other Shanli lieutenants. He did not dare to be careless and persevere. He led Yan Yan, Chen Mi, Lou Fa, Wu Bi and other military lieutenants persisted and repelled the three attacks of the Bingzhou army such as Zhang Liao, Song Xian, and Wei Xu with the advantage of geographical advantages.

Only Shanli, which was captured by Gao Shun, has now become a constraint of the Jingzhou army.

The Bingzhou Army showed its might on the mountain where Lei Yu had just occupied. The bows and arrows shot towards the mountain beside him like rain. Wu Bo and his group could not raise their heads.

Zhang Liao and others took this opportunity to attack Wu Li's Shanli again. Wu Li's army was in chaos and was attacked by Bingzhou army. The two sides fought together. In the end, they could not resist the fierce attacks of Zhang Liao, Wei Xu and others, and had to retreat and lose another barrier.

In a short period of time, he lost two consecutive positions, which was beyond Liu Qi's expectations.

"How can the opponent's arrow shoot so far?" Liu Qi looked at the battlefield on Shanli with strange eyes. "It's impossible? Even if Lu Bu uses a strong bow, his subordinates will not have such ability."

At this moment, Gan Ning hurriedly climbed up to the top of the city and bowed to Liu Qi, "Mr. The last official saw clearly. The Bingzhou army has a waist-induced crossbow! It is difficult to deal with!"

"Hand-pull crossbow?"

Fa Zheng frowned and said, "I didn't expect that they had such a powerful weapon!"

Liu Qi looked at Fa Zheng and asked, "What kind of waist-induced crossbow?"

Fa Zheng bowed and said, "Report to the Lord of the Mansion, crossbows are the powerful weapon of the Han Dynasty. The formation of ten thousand crossbows at the same time was the most powerful weapon for our Han Dynasty to fight against foreign tribes such as the Huns. In the past, Li Ling was 5,000 enemies and 100,000 enemies until the crossbows were over. This shows how powerful the crossbows were! This is the case with the powerful crossbows given to our army by King Chen. It is easier to operate than bows and arrows, with a long range, accurate shooting, and powerful force, but the precise production and easy damage are its weakness. These weapons are only equipped with strong troops like Luoyang Northern Army. There are few soldiers of counties and states who use crossbows..."

Liu Qi was a little troubled by Fa Zheng's explanation.

"To put it into the point, what kind of crossbow is the waist-induced crossbow?"

"The waist-leading crossbow can be turned with waist-string, which can reach eight to ten stones! This crossbow is made in complex and difficult to use, and it takes time to arrange and arrange it. Only a small number of large counties have... The Bingzhou Army's waist-leading crossbow must be from the Luoyang City Arsenal in the past and was equipped by Dong Zhuo in his army."

Now Liu Qi probably understands it.

This kind of thing is the ultra-long-range weapon of this era... What is the concept of ten stones? It is about 300 kilograms, and a waist-guiding device is like a mortar, and even a sergeant with heavy armor cannot defend it.

However, it is more troublesome to use the waist-leading crossbow. The soldiers need to sit on the ground and push the bow forward with both hands. In this process, they use the hook tied around the waist to pull the strings and open the bow. Since they rely on the joint force of the feet and waist, the crossbow has greater strength, greater power to launch, and longer range.

The problem is that it is very inconvenient to use and the preparation time is also long.

This is the result of Gao Shun's army attacking the mountain repeatedly, but repeatedly advancing and retreating. This is the preparation time for the soldiers on their side to shoot with their waist-leading crossbows.

Lei Yu was caught off guard and was damaged by this powerful crossbow.
