The Three Kingdoms began with island farming

Chapter 621 Close Combat
The Kushan Guard Infantry Battalion really disrupted the plans of Liu Bei and others.

At this moment, they couldn't help but put away some of their arrogance.

Although the Kushans did have problems in many aspects, their hard power was still sufficient.

Just one Military Soul Corps is so powerful that it puts them under tremendous pressure. The Kushans have four Military Soul Corps in public, and it is unknown whether there are other forces hidden in secret.

But at the same time, Liu Bei and others also set their sights on this Military Soul Corps.

The current situation is that the enemy is in the open and I am in the dark.

The emergence of the Guards Infantry Battalion seemed to mean that the Kushans had seized the initiative, but in fact they were at a disadvantage.

When there is no qualitative difference in the strength of the two sides, the party that reveals its cards first will be the prey.

At this time, Liu Bei and others had already begun to plan how to destroy this Military Soul Corps.

No matter how powerful a military soul corps is, it is impossible for it to be without any weaknesses.

Not to mention the Guards Infantry Battalion, which takes a radical approach.

The sharper the sword, the more fragile it is.

It may be indestructible when being chopped together, but if it is hit hard by a heavy hammer, it will definitely break.

Unless the material is strong enough.

The Guards Infantry Battalion in front of them obviously had not reached the level that made Liu Bei and others despair.

“As long as we can trap them for half an hour, I will lead the Overlord Cavalry to crush them to the ground.” Sun Ce said in a deep voice.

"It's not the time yet." Pang Tong quickly dissuaded.

"We have just started fighting with the Kushans. If we destroy one of their military soul corps right away, it will definitely cause a stress reaction. Let's wait until the time is right."

Zhou Yu also nodded and said: "Since this military soul corps has been exposed, it will not be difficult to deal with it in the future. Let's keep it for now."

"But can Zhang Ren stop this army of military souls?"

Zhou Yu turned his gaze towards Liu Fan.

He knew the approximate combat capability, strengths and weaknesses of Zhang Ren's crossbow and elephant soldiers with just one glance.

This is a long-range turret with enhanced health bar and melee capability. He doesn't see any possibility of winning against the Kushan Guards Infantry Battalion.

The long-range offensive capability was completely restrained by the opponent's sharp reaction and flexibility.

Its own clumsiness is made worse by the opponent's frost talent.

It is still unknown how good Zhou Yu's close combat ability is, but it is definitely not that strong.

Although the armor is quite thick and the health bar of the elephant soldier is not low, what's the use? It's just a matter of getting hit by two more swords.

No matter how he looked at it, he didn't think this group of crossbow elephant soldiers had any chance of winning.

But since Liu Fan has a certain degree of confidence, it means that he must have a chance to win, which really makes him curious.

Can a military unit that focuses on long-range offensive capabilities really deal with such a powerful enemy in close combat?

There were many people who thought the same as Zhou Yu, and they all set their sights on Liu Fan and Zhang Ren.

Liu Fan turned a deaf ear to this and kept staring at Zhang Ren from beginning to end.

"Zi Bu, you won't let me down, right?"

Riding on a heavily armored war elephant, Zhang Ren, holding a powerful crossbow, stared intently at the Kushan Guard Infantry Battalion that was cutting through the waves and charging towards him with unstoppable force.

After observing just now, he also realized the horror of this army.

But at the same time, based on the command flag and the situation on the field, he understood that he had no way out.

Liu Fan chose to believe him.

Feeling the slight fluctuations emanating from the Chixiao Sword at his waist, Zhang Ren's mood was calm at this moment.

There is no fear, no worry, only the calmness to face everything. "My lord, I will not let you down!"

Zhang Ren murmured.

He never intended to use the Scarlet Sky Sword's last resort. No matter what, he could not lose.

Although many people think that Liu Fan is not as good as Liu Bei and Sun Ce, Zhang Ren does not think so.

In his heart, Liu Fan was the only wise ruler who had shown him great kindness.

As long as he can repay Liu Fan's kindness and accomplish Liu Fan's great cause, he would not hesitate even if it means his death.

He did not switch to a spear for close combat, because Zhang Ren knew that it would not make much sense.

Every profession has its own specialties, and the energy of soldiers is limited.

The elephant soldiers, who had been honing their long-range attack capabilities, were indeed not very good in close combat and simply gave up their close combat capabilities.

Only one person was equipped with a ring-handled sword, so that he could kill the enemy in close combat after falling off the war elephant.

But this does not mean that elephant soldiers have no ability in close combat. The heavy elephant hooves are enough to crush everything.

The Kushan Guards Infantry Battalion looked at Zhang Ren's elephant soldiers from afar, and a hint of contempt appeared on the corners of their mouths.

No one knew how to use and deal with elephants better than the Kushans.

The Han army before them was simply showing off their skills in front of an expert.

If the bulky elephant soldiers could touch the edge of their clothes, they would lose.

A captain wearing a helmet and a crown rushed to the front and pointed his sword directly in Zhang Ren's direction: "Scatter and destroy them!"

They knew the strengths and weaknesses of elephant soldiers very well. Their clumsy footsteps made them easy prey.

The Guards Infantry Battalion instantly turned into dozens of loose battle formations, rushing forward with strange steps.

Zhang Ren saw this, his expression remained unchanged, he took a deep breath, and said loudly: "Focus your fire! Shoot!"

After that, ten people formed a group, aimed at one enemy, and started covering fire.

Since we can't aim at the enemy, we can just launch a covering attack and block the enemy from all sides.

Dense crossbow arrows covered the sky like a swarm of locusts, and the sound of breaking through the air tore through the noise of the battlefield.

The triangular battle formation of the Kushan Guards Infantry Battalion came to a sudden halt. They relied on their agility to dodge left and right, but many of them were still grazed by the crossbow arrows, and sparks flew from their light armor.

Some who were unable to dodge were seriously injured.

Seeing many of his own soldiers injured, the centurion's eyes flashed with anger. He swung his sword to split the two crossbow arrows that were shot at his face and roared, "Speed ​​up! Close combat!"

As the Kushan Guards Infantry Battalion approached, Zhang Ren's face looked a little ugly.

The reason why Liu Fan was able to inflict a lot of damage to the Military Soul Corps just now was that his talent played a significant role.

The bonus of destiny to soldiers is more focused on some metaphysical luck.

For example, when two armies were fighting, the long sword in the hands of one of the soldiers happened to hit the opponent's vital point, while the opponent's attack hit the one's waist and abdomen.

It's just a slight difference, but it's enough to have a certain impact.

This is reflected in the arrows shot by the crossbow and elephant soldiers, among which a small number will accidentally hit the enemy.

When they are dense enough, the enemy will not be able to intercept them and will naturally be injured.

However, the probability of such a coincidence is not high, and the resulting results are still quite limited.

If the range of the crossbow elephant soldiers is sufficient, this is the monarch talent that best suits them.

As long as you don't face the Kushan Guards Infantry Battalion whose agility is maxed out, you can always slowly drain their blood.

However, the other party finally rushed to him.
