Ying Yuan stood on the high platform with his hands behind his back. His eyes, which usually showed a gentle smile, were now staring coldly at Xiang Yu opposite him.
Ying Yuan, who had no achievements in martial arts and no advanced martial arts skills, was now acting as arrogantly as a peerless master.
When Xiang Yu saw this scene, he became even more eager to fight!
Ying Yuan raised the corner of his mouth and suddenly shouted loudly.
"Xiahou Ying, fight!"
"Here! Fight!"
Xiahou Ying responded with a loud shout, and then with a wave of his hand, a series of hair-raising noises rang out.
"Shhhhh!"
"Shhhhh!"
"Shhhhh!"
At this moment, everyone present finally saw the function of the strange-shaped crossbows held by the palace guards.
Accompanied by bursts of orderly explosions, dark arrows flew straight towards Xiang Yu like a storm.
"What is this?"
"When did our Great Qin have such a magical weapon?"
"Is this thing a crossbow? Why is it different from what I know?"
"Three bursts! This crossbow can fire three bursts!!"
Waves of exclamations rang out one after another.
Wang Ben, a veteran general in the army, also widened his eyes at this moment.
He had never seen such a scene before.
The key point is the bows and crossbows of the Qin Dynasty in the past, and I won’t talk about anything else.
When we talk about aiming and shooting, we are actually aiming towards the sky.
When the arrow crosses the space on the battlefield and falls from the sky, it can cause the greatest damage to the enemy.
But the torrential rain of arrows before him was not the case at all!
He actually shot straight towards Xiang Yu!
But Wang Ben had no doubt about the power of this rain of arrows.
From the teeth-grinding bowstring sound just now, one can feel the power of this crossbow.
But facing the rain of arrows that seemed to cover all the space, Xiang Yu snorted coldly and stomped his foot hard on the ground.
With this kick, the bluestone slabs originally laid on the ground actually flew up.
The overwhelming rain of arrows hit the thick bluestone slabs, making a series of crisp sounds that made people's scalps tingle.
But it was this noise that allowed Xiang Yu to resist the first wave of attacks.
Xiang Yu was not the kind of man who would stand there and wait for death. Seeing that the other party had already made a move, he did not show any mercy.
Immediately, he rushed towards the shield soldiers led by Wang Ben like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins.
Ying Yuan watched the scene in front of him silently, but was not moved at all.
It was as if Xiang Yu was supposed to withstand this wave of terrifying attacks.
"Xiahou Ying, fight again!"
As Ying Yuan spoke again, the same rain of arrows as before rushed towards Xiang Yu again like a torrential rain.
In the meantime, there was no pause at all.
"Sir, your repeating crossbow is already extraordinary, and with this three-stage shooting, it's absolutely amazing!"
"This kind of continuous shooting is simply the new weapon of our Great Qin!"
"With this magical weapon in hand, the military power of our Great Qin will be even stronger!"
Xiao He, who was standing silently beside Ying Yuan, looked at the stormy scene on the field and praised it easily.
But Ying Yuan just smiled indifferently.
"The military power of the Qin Dynasty should be the most powerful in the world!"
On the high platform, the king and his subjects get along harmoniously.
At this moment, Xiang Yu's eyes were red and veins were bulging.
Although his strength is far beyond that of ordinary people, he is still just a mortal after all.
But the arrow formation in front of me is really too weird!
Not to mention the density and power, the most terrible thing is that it never stops!
It was difficult for him to get even the slightest chance to attack.
On the other hand, the shield formation on the other side is equally difficult to deal with.
That is the shield formation led by Tongwu Hou Wang Ben!
For such battlefield veterans, if they want to defend to the death, they can definitely do so without any leaks.
Even though Xiang Yu was an unrivaled martial artist, he could only chisel slowly, hoping to break through the shield formation as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, even Xiang Yu, who was born with a proud character, couldn't help feeling a sense of sadness in his heart.
"Is this God's will?!"
"Is it my destiny, Xiang Yu, to die here?"
This feeling of sadness came so suddenly and so overwhelmingly.
This caused Xiang Yu's action of waving the stone slab in his hand to block the rain of arrows to pause for a moment.
But this is a life-and-death battlefield, how can we afford to lose focus even for a moment?
"puff!"
"puff!"
"puff!"
With just a moment of negligence, the dense rain of arrows found the empty space and pierced straight into the body of this unparalleled god of war!
Arms, thighs...
Just a little negligence caused Xiang Yu to suffer numerous wounds and bleed profusely.
The gushing blood made Xiang Yu's vision a little blurred.
A strange thought popped up in his mind, causing him to sigh.
"Could it be that this is God's will?"
But suddenly, a loud shout woke up Xiang Yu who was in a daze.
"Fuck God!"
"boom!"
Along with this loud shout, a spear fell from the sky and pierced into the venue with a loud bang, raising a cloud of dust.
The leader of the Chu restoration forces, Xiang Yu's uncle, Xiang Liang, has arrived!
Xiang Yu looked at the familiar spear in front of him and raised his head sharply.
"uncle?"
boom!
Another explosion!
The thick and heavy back door of the venue was unexpectedly forced open by someone, and a stream of figures rushed straight into the venue from there.
"As a man of the Great Chu State, why should I fear death?!"
The square-faced man standing in the front of the crowd turned his head to look at his nephew who was bleeding profusely. A trace of pity flashed across his eyes, but then they were filled with endless fighting spirit.
"Yu'er, your uncle is here, can you still fight?"
Xiang Liang looked at Xiang Yu and spoke calmly.
Although this time Xiang Liang only brought two hundred people into the venue.
But facing five thousand city guards who were ready for battle, and palace guards armed with bows and crossbows, this descendant of the famous general of the Great Chu did not show the slightest fear.
"Mr. Xiang Liang!"
"Welcome!"
"Now that you're here, that's good. It also saves me a lot of effort in finding people!"
"But now that you're here, don't leave!"
"Uncle and nephew, let us die together!"
Ying Yuan's smile was so brilliant at this moment, he was simply the perfect villain.
"Array up!"
Faced with the ridicule of this notorious regent, Xiang Liang remained unmoved. Instead, he raised the spear in his hand and let out a low shout.
And with this shout, there were only two hundred anti-Qin "righteous men", but they quickly formed the simplest battle formation.
In the blink of an eye, they were about to rush into the venue with Xiang Liang as the vanguard to rescue their young master.
"Shhhhh!"
Unfortunately, Ying Yuan showed no mercy to this touching scene, and the crossbows in the hands of the guards did not stop at all.
However, when Xiang Yu grasped the Overlord Spear, the scene changed! (End of this chapter)
