After Zhou Yu made up his mind, he hesitated no more. When the Northern Huns' archers charged forward, Eastern Wu's archers advanced; when the Northern Huns retreated, Eastern Wu followed. Eastern Wu's archers were not any worse in shooting arrows. If they couldn't dodge, they would engage directly in casualties. Zhou Yu just didn't believe the Northern Huns could withstand casualties.
Sure enough, after Zhou Yu endured the volleys from the Northern Huns' arrows several times, the Northern Huns became extremely wary of Zhou Yu's army from the front. Although it seemed like the Northern Huns had the advantage with double casualties for their opponents, in reality, the strategic winner was clear.
After several assaults were repelled by the volleys from Zhou Yu's soldiers, the Northern Huns' elite cavalry became somewhat frenzied due to repeated failures.
