The crossbow arrived in an instant. Liu Xin raised the shield he had just received. He only felt his arms trembling continuously. Impacts that were close to the peak level of the Xiaocheng Realm came one after another. Liu Xin had to rely on internal support to block this series of attacks.
Almost at the same time, Liu Xin's ears heard the sound of a crossbow being driven into a shield and into a wooden wall. There was also the pop of a crossbow arrow entering the body, as well as the screams of soldiers.
Liu Xin turned around and looked, and sure enough he found that several people had been hit by arrows, and the arrows fired by the cavalry were far faster than before.
However, the soldiers under Weng Bingliang's command were also extremely experienced, so in this round of firing from thousands of crossbow arrows, only a dozen of them were unfortunately hit by arrows.
Almost all the contestants standing on the front line were not injured at this time. Their reaction and strength allowed them to easily catch this round of crossbow arrows.
"Be careful, there will be more than one wave of arrows."
Weng Bingliang's voice sounded almost immediately after the round of crossbow arrows ended.
Then Liu Xin's ears buzzed again, and there was another wave of arrows.
The crossbow attack didn't seem to stop at that moment. A continuous rain of arrows came, and the figure of the cavalry on the opposite side was getting closer and closer.
At this moment, even ordinary soldiers could already see the shocking cold light emanating from the opposite side.
"There are about five thousand riders on the opposite side. Prepare to counterattack!"
Weng Pingliang's voice sounded again.
The previous waves of arrows probably took away the lives of nearly a hundred ordinary soldiers.
In this military camp, the number of ordinary soldiers is probably around a thousand.
Including more than 800 contestants, the maximum number of people is only 2,000.
The cavalry on the opposite side looked like waves coming one after another with no end.
If Weng Bingliang hadn't shouted out the number of enemy troops, many people at the scene would probably have been even more frightened.
But when everyone knew the specific number of enemy troops, they had a number in mind.
Just like Liu Xin, he already had confidence in his heart. Although he was not sure of defeating five thousand cavalry, if he wanted to run away...
Liu Xin shook his head and threw this thought away.
He remembered a sentence recorded in the book by his predecessors. When words such as "escape failure" appear in your mind on the battlefield, you must expel them as soon as possible, otherwise you will face real failure and death.
Liu Xin believed in the experience of his predecessors, so he followed them resolutely.
At this time, the cavalry on the opposite side was less than 500 meters away from the horse-rejecting formation. At this moment, a loud shout came from Liu Xin, and he didn't even hear clearly what he was yelling about.
But those ordinary soldiers stood up against the rain of arrows at the same time and fired in that direction.
The arrows fired by the cavalry are not only more powerful, but also have a longer range, and the defender must control the distance.
About two to three hundred arrows were shot out at about the same time. Liu Xin could clearly see that less than ten of the cavalrymen on the opposite side had fallen. On his side, because of the rain of arrows, dozens of people were hit and felled by arrows. land.
It may seem uneconomical, but in fact, when faced with cavalry charging into battle, you only need to shoot down one of them to cause a lot of trouble for the cavalry camp.
Liu Xin glanced at the spears at his feet. He already knew how to use them without being taught. So he held the shield in one hand and picked up a long hair with the other hand and poured his inner energy into it. He didn't need to aim at all and pointed directly forward. Throw it out hard.
With the internal force and a little rotation of Liu Xin's wrist, the spear shot out like a thousand-oxen crossbow that broke through the air!
When the cavalry on the opposite side saw this spear coming, the fear in their hearts was suddenly ignited.
Didn’t he say that the other party didn’t have a Thousand Ox Crossbow?
Commander, are you kidding us or playing tricks on us?
The ordinary knights on the opposite side were already panicking. Almost instantly, the spear hit a heavy cavalryman. The huge shield weighing 40 kilograms in his hand turned out to be made of tofu. It was easily penetrated without waiting. The knight reacted, and the spear continued to pierce his body, and flew away with his body. When the knight was dying, he felt as if there was a companion behind him.
When they fell to the ground, darkness swallowed them up the next moment.
The cavalry at the back didn't care about the life and death of the person who fell in front, and stepped directly over. Almost a moment later, the two people were reduced to a ball of meat.
Of course, the two horses lost control and began to become chaotic, which also affected some of the queues behind them.
The other contestants on the first line of defense at the military camp are still gathering momentum, preparing to forcibly meet the cavalry's impact.
But after seeing Liu Xin's method of using the spear, everyone reacted instantly.
The reaction ability of Dacheng realm warriors is extremely strong. In just a split second, they found the spears lying around them.
It turned out that this was how these spears were used, and this group of young warriors immediately understood.
Of course, there are some descendants of distinguished military generals among them. They were also frightened by the cavalry charge they saw for the first time, and they forgot the knowledge their fathers had taught them.
However, Liu Xin's projection allowed them to regain their memories, and even revived other memories that their fathers had taught them.
As dozens of spears shot out irregularly from the military camp, each of the spears projected by these Dacheng realm warriors had the power of a thousand-ox crossbow level.
Weng Bingliang glanced at Liu Xin with admiration on the other side.
He actually had a backup plan. If those spears were ignored, he would have already dug a pit in the 100-meter space behind the horse-rejecting formation, which would be enough to slow down the cavalry's momentum.
He originally didn't have a good look on these contestants, because he had long known that the superiors had decided to use the lives of these thousands of ordinary soldiers to quickly let this group of young people grow up.
Although he was extremely unhappy, he had no choice but to obey the military orders.
He tried every means and tried his best to save the lives of these ordinary soldiers.
Originally, he knew that no matter how much he did, he might only be able to save a few more lives in the end, but now it seems that he might be able to save more lives.
Especially Liu Xin, this young man gave him a surprise, and his on-the-spot reaction made Weng Bingliang satisfied.
But the crisis has not been resolved. It can only be said that the situation is better than before.
The leader of the opponent's charge is their cavalry leader. The leader of the cavalry is always at the forefront of the cavalry team.
The opponent seemed to have received the leader's order to charge, and the momentum of the charge began to shift to the right, suddenly changing from a frontal charge to a side penetration.
In this way, the impact and destructive power of the opposing cavalry will be reduced, but the same defensive power will be greatly increased. The most important thing is that the charging speed of such interspersed attacks can be retained to the maximum extent.
And if they continue to charge forward, the spears of these Dacheng realm warriors will let them know that charging forward is a huge mistake.
Weng Binliang sighed, he hoped that the other party would continue to charge head-on.
Once they have passed through the horse-rejecting formation and reached the subsidence area, the cavalry's impact speed will be reduced by at least half, which will directly reduce the threat.
"The commander on the other side is not stupid, what a pity!"
Just when he was about to issue a new order, he saw a figure out of the corner of his eye and rushed towards the cavalry.
"Seniors have said that if the cavalry changes from frontal charge to flanking and intersecting, it means that the opponent is not going to take you down in one go, but wants to use the cavalry's mobility to continuously consume you.
At this time, the best measure is to advance forward and break the cavalry's connection. Once successful, the opponent's cavalry will be considered a failure. "
Liu Xin murmured to himself. He had thrown away his shield and carried the broken sword behind his back. He held a total of four spears in his hands and under his arms. He rushed straight towards the cavalry on the opposite side.
"Brother Liu, you're going to die!" Shan Si stared at this scene dumbfounded. As a man from a martial arts background, he didn't understand Liu Xin, and thought that the other party dared to attack the cavalry camp, which was simply asking for death.
But in fact, after Liu Xin set off, dozens of people rushed out, all contestants.
They were all descendants of generals who had been exposed to it since childhood, so they naturally knew the best way to deal with the cavalry changing lanes. When they saw Liu Xin rushing out alone, the passion and bravery in their hearts were also aroused.
Besides, they are all Dacheng realm warriors, so even if they attack the cavalry directly, they are sure to do so instead of going to death.
When Dan Si saw so many people rushing out with Liu Xin, his first reaction was that these people were crazy.
I have long heard that the battlefield has a magical power that can make people crazy.
But he soon figured something out with his intelligence.
These people are definitely not fools. Dacheng realm warriors are very good at controlling their emotions, otherwise they would not be able to endure the pain of opening up the Ren and Du meridians.
Since they have not been devoured by madness, there is only one answer. What they are doing now is truly correct!
So Dan Si rushed out after being three beats late.
Weng Bingliang was slightly stunned at first, and then a look of appreciation appeared in his eyes.
Of course, this kind of appreciation is only for Liu Xin alone. As for the group of people behind him, Weng Bingliang only thinks that they are followers.
The first one to eat crabs is the warrior, the second one?
That's bullshit!
Liu Xin had already rushed out, but he was not the first to come into contact with the cavalry team.
The first person to come into contact with the cavalry team was Huangfu Rongjiang, also known as Brother Shui in Dan Si's mouth.
Huangfu Rongjiang did not hold four spears like Liu Xin. In his hand was a spear, a dark red spear.
This should be his weapon.
Huangfu Rongjiang was like a ray of red light. He didn't know when he put on an extremely showy red cloak behind him.
Of course, the role of a cloak is not to show off. Liu Xin knows that a cloak can be very useful on the battlefield.
Sure enough, Huangfu Rongjiang rushed to the front of the cavalry formation like a ball of red light. The cavalry on the opposite side did not respond slowly. When they found someone charging towards them, they immediately realized that something was wrong and fired crossbows in this direction.
The cloak behind Huangfu Rongjiang swept forward with a move in his hand. Containing the blessing of internal force, the cloak not only swept away the crossbow arrows, but even blew out a gust of wind that changed the flight path of other crossbow arrows that followed. , and he himself stepped forward with his gun and picked off a knight with one shot.
But what followed was a stabbing spear from several knights.
Huangfu Rongjiang used his cloak again, and the cloak rotated, wrapping all the spears.
Huangfu Rongjiang dismounted his horse and used force from his lower body to pull the knights off their horses.
Huangfu Rongjiang's spear swept across the necks of these knights, and blood fountains instantly appeared on their necks.
This series of actions took only a moment, and Liu Xin suddenly noticed the attribute panel above his head.

Liu Xin's reaction was almost affected by the shock in his heart. A spear came through the air. Liu Xin narrowly avoided it. As soon as the spear was sent out in his hand, the knight was picked off his horse.
He sent out two more spears in succession and picked out two more knights.
Liu Xin held the last spear and used it as a weapon.
The Dao Breaking Sword is extremely sharp, but it is not suitable for the battlefield, especially when dealing with cavalry.
An inch longer and an inch stronger is the truth on the battlefield.
If you don't accept it, fight.
Swords are only popular in Jianghu, and there are few generals who do not use long weapons.
Liu Xin is good at eighteen kinds of weapons, and he even masters the top marksmanship skills. The spears are like a forest!
【Bamboo Forest Gun】
Lu Ziheng, who was hidden in the crowd, kept paying attention to Liu Xin because he always felt that he had seen him somewhere.
As this stunt appeared, he immediately thought about it.
Three years ago, he was lucky enough to follow the senior brothers from Emperor Wu City to the Holy Sect's great meeting, and happened to see Liu Xin accept the challenge from the senior brothers from other sects.
As the eldest brother of the Holy Sect, I have to cooperate with the performance occasionally, but at the same time, I cannot lose the prestige of the Holy Sect.
Therefore, in that battle, the two sides exchanged nearly a hundred moves. At the last moment, Liu Xin used the famous [Bamboo Forest Spear], which shocked everyone with his skills.
[Bamboo Forest Spear] has a low-key name, but it is a top-notch skill.
A spear is like a forest, and thousands of trees are towering.
One shot is worth ten thousand shots, this is the Bamboo Forest Gun.
It is recognized by the world as the best technique for dealing with group attacks.
But the difficulty of practice is also extremely high.
Lu Ziheng finally remembered, but he never expected that Senior Brother Shengzong would become a royal guard of the imperial court.
I felt a little familiar with this name when I saw it, but now I finally remember it all.
The next moment, an evil thought came into Lu Ziheng's mind.
"If I can devour his inner strength and bones, and force out the secrets of those top skills, I can hope to reach the master level in the future!"
Thinking of this, Lu Ziheng felt that his fighting spirit surged. He jumped up and joined the attacking cavalry camp.
His actions did not attract the attention of others, because almost all the contestants on the front line had rushed out at this moment.
Because they discovered that once the cavalry formation adjusted its direction, its flanks were actually relatively weak. With their Dacheng realm cultivation, they could actually fight.
And they are not fools. They have naturally understood the meaning of what Weng Bingliang said. Their second round of competition will depend on their performance in this battle.
The previous fears had already gradually faded away as the battle began.
In their hearts, cavalry is nothing more than that.
Weng Bingliang looked at this scene, and finally a more obvious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
It seems that after this Zhengyang martial arts competition, there will finally be some better seeds.
But they are just seedlings. If you really want to be of great use, you still need some hard work.
Of course, the more important thing is that they must survive this small war first.
If they thought that the cavalry could be dealt with so easily, they would be so wrong!
Suddenly Weng Binliang heard some discordant sounds and turned his head to look.
I saw two young contestants blocking a little girl.
Weng Bingliang frowned deeply.
The little girl looked quite brave. He was holding a spear and was about to rush forward, but was stopped by the two young men.
"Don't stop me, I want to go with my brother Xuanqing!"
"Don't go, Sister Fu, look at how dangerous the cavalry is. Someone has already been injured."
Wu Chuan yelled, and he turned his head and glanced. Sure enough, someone had been accidentally hit by the horse and was knocked away and vomited blood. However, the person got up and continued to rush forward. He was also at the level of Dacheng. Although he was hit by the horse, , but if handled properly, it should only be a minor injury.
But the little girl refused to give up. She only had eyes for the figure who was killing the enemy on the front line.
"Get away!"
The little girl is like a raging little lioness.
But they were blocked by the two young men.
Weng Bingliang snorted coldly and stopped paying attention.
This group of cavalry was just a test at first, and then came the real highlight. He must do his best to focus all his attention on this war.
He only had a thousand men, and he did not know whether the rest were a burden or an irritant.
He didn't regard the eight hundred contestants as a boost at all.
This battle was not only a test for the eight hundred people, but also a test for him.
If he succeeds, he will be promoted to a higher level.
This is the path to upgrade as a general. If you want to upgrade, you must accept challenges of the same difficulty.
Winner takes all, loser for Kou.
The sudden attack by nearly a hundred contestants also caused the cavalry team to be slightly confused for a while.
This group of people is really too strong.
But a pair of sharp eyes like eagles in the cavalry team stared at these hundred people.
He was always in the middle of the team, watching closely for any changes ahead.
The previous attacks were just appetizers, just tests. As he issued an order, the middle of the cavalry slowly parted, revealing an elite team inside.
This is an attacking team and the most important sharp sword among the cavalry.
If the previous attack was just a test and the weapon had not been unsheathed, now the weapon was sharp and ready to show its ferocity.
