The strength of the Han army is not only due to the quality of its soldiers.
There are also armors, weapons, and divine arm bows.
The technology of blast furnace steelmaking made the Han army's weapons and armor very sophisticated, and their armor coverage rate was very high. The Chu army was also equipped with divine arm bows, but the Chu army here in Nanyang did not.
Liu Wu led the Han army into battle amid the roar of drums.
The Chu army soon reached the range of the Han army's divine arm bow. The divine arm archers of the Han Army in the front row quickly slowed down after pulling the trigger and came to the rear.
“Whoosh whoosh!!!!”
The powerful crossbow arrows pierced the air and shot straight at the Chu soldiers. There were also shield soldiers in the front row of the Chu army's soldiers.
But in the movement of the military formation, the shield cannot protect too many people.
"Pfft, pfft."
"Ahhhh!!!"
The power of the God's Arm Bow is very strong. Even if it is wearing armor, it may be seriously injured. Under this wave of crossbow arrows, the soldiers of the Chu army were either injured and screamed in pain, or were shot dead.
The Chu soldiers who were not injured continued to charge forward.
Soon, the archers from both sides began to shoot at each other.
"Whoosh whoosh!!!!"
The Han army archers and the Chu army archers shot the arrows in their hands almost at the same time. Countless soldiers from both sides fell after being hit by arrows, but the Han army's soldiers were highly armored, and many soldiers continued to charge with arrows stuck in their bodies.
On the other hand, if the soldiers of the Chu army were hit by arrows without armor, they would at least be seriously injured.
After charging against the opponent's arrows, it's time for face-to-face combat.
The shield bearers in the front row of the Han army slowed down, and the heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers of the Han army behind them came out. The huge and sharp battle axes in their hands became the tokens in the hands of the King of Hell.
Their tall and strong physiques have super explosive power, and their super thick armor brings powerful defense.
They fight with cold weapons and are the undoubted infantry kings.
"Pfft."
"Pfft."
"Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!"
Chen Fuping also placed elite soldiers in the front row, but these Chu army elite soldiers were as fragile as babies in front of the Han army's heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers.
"Those who surrender will not be killed!!!!!!!!!!!" Even these heavy armored and heavy axe-soldiers shouted, thinking that they had secured the victory.
"As long as you put down your weapons, those who surrender will not be killed."
"Besides, we didn't kill a single Nanyang citizen. That was just a ruse."
The heavy armored and heavy ax soldiers waved the heavy axes in their hands mercilessly, killing each Chu soldier. At the same time, they sympathized with them and shouted at them to surrender.
He yelled to let the Chu soldiers know that the Han army did not massacre a single Han.
Under the slaughter of the heavy armor and heavy ax soldiers, the Chu soldiers fell in pieces. What's even worse is.
Freely standing next to the military formation were the Qianhu cavalry under Liu Wu. Five hundred households of heavy cavalry and five hundred households of light cavalry launched an attack.
"kill!!!!!!!!"
Under the command of the cavalry Qianhu, the heavy armored cavalry held the cavalry spear in front, put their feet in stirrups, sat firmly on the horse, raised the spear and charged.
The light cavalry dispersed with bows in hand, one step behind the heavy armored cavalry. After approaching the Chu army's formation, the light cavalry fired the arrows in their hands.
The heavily armored and heavy cavalry crashed into the Chu army's formation.
There are heavy armored and heavy ax soldiers in front to open the way, and heavy armored and heavy cavalry on the side to strangle them.
Although the Chu army has many horses and horses, its morale is high, but its morale is still available.
But it collapsed.
The soldiers of the Chu army did not believe the Han army's propaganda. They thought this was a lie, and the Han army burned, killed and looted in Nanyang.
Instigating troops to cause chaos.
Their anger surged.
But the front of the Han army was like a basin of ice-cold water pouring down from their heads, enough to wipe out all the anger.
They are afraid.
"Run quickly."
"We are no match for the Han army, run away."
"I surrender, I surrender."
Who is better and who is worse is revealed at this moment. Large areas of the Chu army's soldiers were defeated and fled, and large areas of them knelt down to beg for mercy.
It was they who fell into the Han army's scheme and forced Chen Fuping to send troops.
In the Han army's formation.
Under the banner of "Feng". Feng Chong looked at the battlefield ahead, his eyes tearing apart. These are all my military exploits, damn Zhang Jin.
He raised his long sword angrily and shouted: "Athletes, move in groups of a thousand households and surround them. Don't allow any of the defeated Chu army to escape. All surrendered."
"Those who shout to surrender will not be killed."
"yes."
The thousands of households responded loudly, then turned into ten arrows and surrounded the battlefield.
The Chu army had collapsed. Facing Feng Chong's Wanhu cavalry, they had no resistance or confidence to resist.
When Feng Chong's cavalry shouted "Those who surrender will not be killed", the fleeing Chu soldiers also knelt on the ground and surrendered.
Except for a few who have horses and can run fast. Almost all of the Chu army's eighteen thousand soldiers were left behind.
Of course, that includes Chen Fuping.
The people around Chen Fuping have dispersed, and there are only more than a hundred soldiers guarding him loyally. And all around him were countless powerful Han soldiers.
Chen Fuping sighed and said, "This is how fate should be."
"You all kneel down and surrender. You don't have to sacrifice your lives for me." He turned to look at the soldiers again and said in a deep voice.
"General." The soldiers shouted with eyes splitting.
"This is a military order. Are you going to disobey the military order?" Chen Fuping shouted with his eyes wide open.
"Yes." The soldiers shouted, put down their weapons and knelt on the ground while crying.
"Kill!!!!!!!!!" Chen Fuping nodded happily, then roared decisively, drove his horse, held a horse spear, and rushed towards the Han army's formation.
"What a strong man." Liu Wu held the horse in his hand and raised his head to look at Chen Fuping who came to die single-handedly, showing his admiration.
"Chen Fuping is ten times stronger than Wang Xu, but surrender is impossible. It's a pity. In this case, let me kill you with my own hands."
Liu Wu held the horse's rein with one hand, held the horse's shaft with one hand, clamped the horse's belly with both feet, galloped out, and shouted: "I am General Liu Wu. General Chen. I will escort you all the way."
"Well done." Chen Fuping originally thought that he would be shot to death by random arrows. When he saw this, he was overjoyed and shouted, then raised his spear and stabbed Liu Wu.
It's just that he is already dead, so this move is just a show, without any force.
"Pfft" sound. Liu Wu saw it, sighed, and galloped past. The two horses crossed each other, and Liu Wu's horse swept away.
Chen Fuping's head soared into the sky, and then fell to the ground. His headless body followed the horse for a while, then fell under the horse, twitched for a moment and then became motionless.
Liu Wu got off his horse and walked to Chen Fuping's head. He bent down to pick up the head and placed it next to the body. He took off the sheepskin water bag from the horse, spilled the wine inside, knelt down on one knee and said, "Chen Fuping Well done, General."
