Chapter 2861: The sky is opened and the tyranny is broken, and the four pillars reappear

"Send the archers to test first?"

Bai Qi actually hoped that Cao Cao's army would join the formation, but the Longmen Formation was so prestigious that Cao Cao would definitely not dare to send anyone into the formation without a way to break the formation.

This is also the point that troubles Bai Qi the most. The Longmen Formation is obviously very capable of restraining cavalry, but due to the prestige of the formation and his own fame, he can only use it as a defensive formation. It is really a waste of resources.

"Change the formation and let Qu Yi's troops go to the camp first to block Cao's army from the main formation."

Bai Qi shouted and waved the command flag in his hand, and then the outer formation of Longmen Formation did not move. It was still the defensive formation of the three arms of the shield, gun and knife, while the inner formation quickly changed.

Qu Yi's troops, who were originally on the right wing, moved to the direction of Cao's attack in a very short period of time after receiving Bai Qi's order.

Although Qu Yi himself was not strong, the first camp he led was an elite battalion of bows and crossbows that was rare among the Qin army. The archers in the army were specialized in archery and had a very high hit rate.

Many people have misunderstandings about bows and crossbows. They think that crossbows have a longer range and are more powerful, so they must be better than bows on the battlefield.

But in fact, even though crossbows have become more and more advanced, bows are still the main long-range attack method on the battlefield. There are four reasons for this:

First, crossbows are relatively bulky, while bows are much lighter, easier to carry and use, and can cope with most situations on the battlefield.

Second, the structure of the crossbow is complex and there are too many parts. If there is a problem with one of them, it may not be fired. On the contrary, the bow and arrow are much simpler and more durable.

Third, crossbows can only shoot straight lines, but bows can shoot both straight and arc arrow paths, which can be used in a wider range of situations on the battlefield.

As for these four, the production cost of crossbows is high. The cost of making one crossbow can be enough to make five bows. No other force except Da Qin can afford it;

Therefore, even if the crossbow has many advantages such as longer range and greater power, it cannot completely replace the bow's position on the battlefield, unless one day the manufacturing cost of the crossbow is lower than that of the bow, but this is obviously impossible.

As the only elite crossbow camp in the Qin Dynasty, Xiandeng Camp used crossbows as its main means of long-range attack, but it still did not abandon bows and arrows.

Qu Yi was sitting in the Longmen Formation. He looked at the cavalry of Cao's army who were approaching. He showed a sneer on his lips and ordered: "All crossbowmen are ready. Eject from the front, shoot in three stages, and launch."

[Ding dong, Qu Yi's skill 'First Climb' activates effects 1 and 2 one after another. When leading the army in battle, the command +2, the force +3, and the morale, combat power, and speed of the whole army are improved. When leading the exclusive unit 'First Climb the Death Soldier' 'During battle, the commander will gain +1 and his force will be +1, and if he first enters the camp, all his force will be +1;

麴义：统帅96（+2），武力96（+3），智力81（+2），政治56（+1），魅力84（+8）；

Equipment: Dragonfly Cut +1, Black Deer +1;

Skills: Sword King +3;

Currently: Commander Qu Yi has risen to 99, his military strength has increased to 105, all troops in the first camp have +1, and the morale, combat power, and speed of the entire Qin army have been improved;]

Qu Yi's attributes have changed a lot, especially his charm attribute, which has improved by as much as 8 points. This is mainly because his reputation has never been very good. His charm attribute was originally very low, but he won a big battle in the Battle of Japan. He showed off his skills and gained the name of 'hero' after the war, so his charm attribute improved so much.

As for Qu Yi's two major pieces of equipment, they were naturally not given by Ying Hao. After all, Ying Hao would only give them to the God of War who was on the whiteboard.

The dragonfly cutter and the mount Black Deer are both famous swords and horses in Yingzhou. They were captured by Qu Yi in the battle against Japan. He finally got rid of the embarrassment of a blank slate by relying on his own efforts.

As we all know, projectiles have a longer range than direct shots, but why are projectiles used with bows instead of crossbows?

It is not that the crossbow cannot shoot parabolas, but due to its strong power and long range, direct shooting can better bring out the excellent performance of the crossbow.

If you use a crossbow to project, firstly, the distance is far and it is difficult to calculate the landing point. Secondly, there is no sight to speak of and it is difficult to hit the person. If you fail to hit the person, it is meaningless.

Unless it is a large corps fighting, tens of thousands of crossbows are dispatched at one time, or even more crossbow volleys, then they will not care about accuracy at all, otherwise they will not use crossbows for projectiles.

However, if after long-term targeted training and the master and general have a sufficient understanding of the performance of the crossbow, the above two points can still be overcome.

As the elite crossbow camp of the Qin Dynasty, Xiandeng Camp had the famous general Qu Yi for training, so it naturally overcame the problem that crossbows were difficult to launch.

Neither Yin Shou, who was leading the army, nor Cao Cao, who was commanding the rear, obviously expected arrows to be fired from the Longmen Formation.

After all, if the Qin army's crossbowmen guarding the center of the formation used crossbows to fire directly, the front row soldiers would block the path of the arrows, and if they used bows to shoot, the bows would not have enough range to shoot Cao's cavalry outside the formation.

On the contrary, Cao Jun's archers and cavalry were able to attack Qin Jun when they reached a certain distance.

Cao Cao planned to use this method to gradually consume the strength of the Qin army and undermine the morale of the Qin army until it was completely defeated. However, he did not expect that the Qin army's crossbowmen actually overcame the two major problems of projectile.

Seeing that the Qin Army's crossbow formation was hoisted with a large flag with the word '麴', Cao Cao quickly asked: "Does the Qin Army have a famous general named Qu? How can the crossbow soldiers overcome the many problems of projectile."

Tantai Yu on the side heard the words and immediately stood up and said: "My lord, the general who commanded the Qin army's crossbowmen was Yuan Shao's former general Qu Yi. His elite soldiers were famous in Hebei. Unfortunately, with the defeat of the Yuan family, Qu Yi also was forced to surrender to Da Qin."

Cao Cao's eyes immediately lit up when he heard that Qu Yi was once a subordinate of Yuan Shao. After all, after Yuan Shao's defeat, many old generals and ministers of the Yuan family have defected to him, such as Xu You, Tantai Yu, etc., so is it possible to recruit Qu Yi? Woolen cloth?

But Cao Cao soon gave up this idea. After all, as a surrendered general, Qu Yi could still lead the elite troops to advance to the camp. This showed that he was highly used and had a great future. However, he was now unable to protect himself. How could he have the capital? What about impressing others?

"What a pity."

Cao Cao sighed with a disappointed look on his face, but Fan Li, who was looking at him, had his mouth twitching.

He knew that Cao Cao had committed the problem of loving talents again, but it depends on the situation. He is currently at war.

Cao Cao quickly adjusted and immediately ordered Yin Shou to disperse his formation, but before he gave the order, Yin Shou made the same reaction.

The commander-in-chief Yin Shou is also not low, and he naturally knows what to do in this situation. Before the Qin army entered his time, he was exposed to the range of the Qin army, so he could only disperse the formation to avoid lowering the Qin army. The hit rate of military crossbows, after all, the number of powerful crossbows in the Qin army is not large.

[Ding Dong, the effect of 'Eight Tiger Cavalry of Cao Wei' is 3, the military force of all generals +1, and the combat power, morale, and marching speed of the entire army are increased. When more than half of the army's casualties are killed, the military force of the entire army +1;

Current: Yin Shou's force has increased to 128;

Tantai Yu's force increased to 125; Xia Houyuan's force increased to 112;

Cao Chun’s force increased to 108;

Cao Xiu...]

At this point, although the group increase of Cao Jun's entire army is 3 points, the group increase of all generals has reached 4 points, namely: Zhou Shu +1, Wei Wu +1, Zhou Shu plus Wei Wu +1, and Cao Wei's Eight Tiger Cavalry +1, only 1 point away from reaching the full group value of 5 points;

Among the 4 points of group increase, except for the 1 point of Zhou Shu, which did not increase to Yin Shou, the other 3 points, as well as the 2 points of increase of Cao Wei's Eight Tiger Cavalry, were a full 5 points of additional increase, and Yin Shou was able to do so. Really experienced.

To put it bluntly, if Yin Shou was at full strength at this time, his combat power would definitely not be inferior to that of Niu Mo Wang and Jiang Song.

After Cao Cao led the Cao Wei heroes with full firepower, they actually had such a high group increase. It can be seen that he was indeed much more difficult to deal with than Le Yi and Cao Bin, so that Zhang Liao and Jia Xu were unable to gain an advantage on the Chenliu battlefield for a long time.

When Bai Qi saw that after Cao's army launched the attack, the morale of the entire army was so high that it was overwhelming, he couldn't help but show a solemn look on his face.

Facing all the cavalry and Cao Jun's group increase of 4 points, even Bai Qi must deal with it seriously, otherwise there will be a risk of overturning.

Yingchuan, Xuchang.

After Ying Hao received the system prompt, he couldn't help but be surprised and thought to himself: "Commander Cao Cao was actually increased to 104 points, and the entire army was increased to 4 points. The situation over Bai Qi's side is not good."

After all, according to this posture, Cao Cao only needs to activate one or two more morale-increasing command skills to reach the full value of 5 points of group increase, while Bai Qi's group increase is definitely not that high.

Ying Hao didn't know that Bai Qi knew the Dragon Gate Formation, nor did he know that Bai Qi had deployed the Dragon Gate Formation. He just analyzed the system prompts, and naturally felt that Bai Qi's situation was not good. After all, it was enough to start a battle on the plains on foot and cavalry. Cao's army's group increase It can be fully charged at any time, so I wanted to give Bai Qi some support from the sidelines.

"Although Bai Qi's 'Rentu' and 'Wu'an' are strong, they are also very restrictive. I'm afraid they won't be able to activate them in this battle.

Cao Cao can designate Yin Shou to temporarily replace Cao Wei's Eight Tiger Cavalry, and I can also designate someone to launch other combos.

Bai Qi's current generals who can activate combo skills are only the Four Court Pillars that Han Meng Gaoban has, but at least three of the Four Courts and One Pillar must be present to activate it. "

With this thought, Ying Hao decisively ordered the system: "Activate Kaitian and designate Qu Yi and Zhu Ling as the Four Court Pillars of Hebei;"

The reason why Qu Yi and Zhu Ling were chosen was naturally because they were both former members of Yuan Shao's army.

[Ding Dong, the effect of Ying Hao's skill 'Open Heaven' is 3 words. You can activate the skill with words. You can designate generals with the same attributes and little difference in strength to replace the missing combination generals and launch combination skills together. (Note: It is limited to two people at most, and it can be activated even if you are not present.)

The current host designated Qu Yi and Zhu Ling. After testing, Qu Yi met the standards, but Zhu Ling did not. Therefore, only Qu Yi succeeded in replacing the Four Courts One Pillar. 】

"Does Zhu Ling not meet the requirements? Then let Ying Hua try again and designate Ying Hua as the Four Court Pillars of Hebei;" Ying Hao ordered again.

[Ding dong, Ying Hao's skill 'Open the Sky' has an effect of 3 words and is activated immediately;

The current host has designated Ying Hua. After testing, Ying Hua meets the standards and can temporarily replace the Four Courts and One Pillar. 】

Seeing this, Ying Hao showed a satisfied smile and guessed why Zhu Ling failed.

Qu Yihui succeeded because he was competing against Zhang He, and their abilities and strengths were actually quite similar.

As for Zhu Ling, he will fail, mainly because his opponent is Yan Liang Wen Chou, and the gap in strength is too big. This is also the main reason why Ying Hua succeeded but failed.

[Ding dong, Ying Hao's skill 'Open Sky' effect 4 is activated for the first time, which can break all group amplification skills and invalidate the activation of its group amplification effects. (Note: This effect can be activated up to five times per year.)

Currently, 'Kaitian' has destroyed the 'tyranny', and the total force of Cao's army is -1;

Before: Tantai Yu’s force increased to 124;

Xia Houyuan's force increased to 111;

Cao Chun’s force increased to 107;

Cao Xiu...]

After seeing this prompt, Ying Hao was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that Effect 4 of 'Open Sky' could be activated even when he was not on the battlefield. After all, it had not been activated during the Battle of Buffalo Mountain before.

Ying Hao quickly guessed the reason. The effect of 'Open Heaven' (4) Borrowing Strength from the Sky still has a range to activate. The reason why it was not activated last time was mainly because Bison Mountain was too far away from the Central Plains. On the other hand, Dingtao is much closer to Xuchang. Well, it’s just over a hundred kilometers away.

Ying Hao's "Open Sky" not only suppressed Cao Jun's group increase by 1 point, but also gave Bai Qi a combo skill. This was the greatest off-court support that Ying Hao could give Bai Qi.

At the same time, Dingtao is here.

[Ding dong, Han Meng, Gao Lan, Qu Yi, and Ying Hua are present at the same time. The combo skill 'Four Court Pillars' effects 1 and 3 are activated one after another. When four people are present, +3, and the combat power and morale of the entire army are increased. , marching speed...the more people present, the greater the army's growth;

Current: Yinghua’s force has increased to 107;

Qu Yi's force increased to 108;

High view of force increased to 101;

Han Meng...】
