Chapter 80: Quick Solution
The moment Huang Zhong's dark arrow shot out, Liu Zheng also shouted at the soldiers and horses around him at this time.
Subsequently, those newly formed archers, at this time, followed Huang Zhong's footsteps and began to shoot fiercely outside the city.
At the same time, the city gate under the city was also slowly opened under Liu Zheng's shout, and Zhou Cang, who had already been ambushed under the city gate, also took people and began to rush outside the city and ran quickly.
With 5,000 of the most elite men and horses under Liu Zheng's command, he rushed out.
And Huang Zhong's arrow, naturally, there is no possibility of missing.
Powerful archery skills like Huang Zhong, every shot is just inevitable.
In the absence of external forces, basically, as long as he shoots an arrow, it must be a hit.
This arrow, the same is true, He Man this guy is still looking at the city tower proudly, riding on a war horse, quite a bit of high-spirited, after all, he is wearing a general's uniform, armor and weapons, everything is available.
Compared to when he was in the Yellow Turban Army, he was much more majestic.
But suddenly, his body sank, and the whole person quickly fell behind him, and a huge impact appeared in front of him.
He Man only felt a pain in his chest.
Immediately after that, his eyes went dark, and he fell off his horse, and he was no longer conscious.
I don't know which soldier it is, but at a glance, I saw He Man's chest with a bright arrow.
The arrow was deep in the roots, directly through He Man's chest. The small section exposed on it is still shaking, which shows the great strength.
"Oh no, the general was shot!"
The shouts of this pro-soldier immediately exploded among the more than 5,000 yellow turban troops.
They had never encountered this situation at all, the scene of the commander being suddenly shot, and the sudden death of He Man at this time made them leaderless for a while, no one to command, no one to give them other orders, and they were all dumbfounded.
But what awaited them was a flurry of arrows.
On the city tower, the arrows shot by the 1,000 archers under Liu Zheng's command at this time also diverged towards the 5,000 soldiers and horses.
Although it was only a thousand arrows, it could cause a commotion when it landed on this battlefield.
These Yellow Turban troops themselves changed their expressions greatly because of He Man's death, and they were suddenly attacked by this thousand archers, and they immediately scattered.
It's a mess.
Some began to flee in all directions, and some began to gather in groups of three or five, losing their opinions, wanting to wait for the other small leaders to issue orders.
But Liu Zheng took advantage of the temporary chaos of these horses and horses, and had already ordered Zhou Cang to rush out from Shangcai County and take the most elite 5,000 soldiers and horses under Liu Zheng's command to kill on this battlefield.
Originally, the gap between the five thousand people under Zhou Cang and the five thousand people under He Man was not very large, if the two sides fought on this battlefield, they would not be able to tell the winner in a short period of time, and even if they could distinguish the winner, it would take a long time to fight.
First, these soldiers and horses under Liu Zhenghui do not have a particularly big advantage in personal force, and at the same time, they do not have much advantage in numbers.
But now it's different, with Liu Zheng's plan, shoot He Man, the commander, first.
Without He Man's command, no matter how many men and horses they have, they will lose their opinions, be in chaos, lose stability, and be unable to fight together, and the scattered men and horses will even break out and flee, and the morale of the army will be weakened.
At this time, Zhou Cang brought people out again, but it was very different, although it was still 5,000 against 5,000 people.
But the morale of the enemy army was completely lost, and there was no intention of fighting desperately, so they could only blindly flee or chase and kill the remnants of the horses.
The battle, which was supposed to be fought for an hour or two, was approaching the end in less than half an hour under the leadership of Zhou Cang.
Nearly half of the 5,000 centaurs were killed and wounded in an instant, and half of them escaped from here, but those who did not escape were killed after a short encounter.
The battle started quickly and ended just as quickly. When the men and horses sent by Xu Huang to inquire about the news appeared in Shangcai County and reported the situation to Liu Zheng, Zhou Cang had already started cleaning the battlefield with his own men.
Xu Huang climbed the tower to find Liu Zheng and began to report the news he had found nearby.
"Qu Shuai, your guess is not wrong at all, not long after I left Shangcai County with talents, I found some traces of enemy troops nearby, and they were hiding a large number of men and horses outside the city!"
Xu Huang's report did not surprise Liu Zheng, after all, this was what he expected.
"As I expected, Brother Xu Huang, where are those people hidden, and how many people are there?"
"Hui Qushuai, those men and horses are about more than 20,000 people, how many people are exactly, the distance is too far, I can't estimate, all of them are hidden in a canyon on the west side of the city, when my men and horses found out their location, these people have already begun to rush to our side with all their might."
"I estimate that it won't be long before we will come outside our city, fortunately, Qu Shuai had the foresight to kill He Man in a short time, otherwise once our men and horses are entangled with He Man, they will inevitably be hit by this wave of people and horses, and not only will they not be able to win at that time, but they will even let our brothers who go out of the city suffer heavy casualties."
Xu Huang was a little lucky, and even agreed with Liu Zheng's previous plan.
Not long after Xu Huang had just finished reporting his information, Zhou Cang also evacuated from outside the city and returned to the city, when there was a bustling commotion outside the city, and sure enough, a group of people ran not far away.
If you look closely, the number of people is huge, definitely more than 20,000 people, and these people are wearing the same official and military clothes as He Man.
Those people, in a hurry, rushed straight towards Shangcai County.
But when they came here, they only saw a mess, outside Shangcai County, except for the stinking red bloodstains and corpses full of knives and guns, there was nothing else.
Especially He Yi, who rushed over from the ambush site in a hurry to support his younger brother.
But when he saw that there was nothing left but a corpse here, the whole person became nervous.
He Yi quickened his pace and hurriedly came to the city, and Liu Zheng on the city tower saw He Yi at a glance in the crowd.
This bastard who betrayed the Yellow Turbans!
Seeing He Yi searching for something on the battlefield, Liu Zheng waved his hand and asked Zhou Cang to present what had been prepared.
Then shouted out of the city.
"He Yi dog thief, are you looking for this?"
After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he reached out and grabbed the things presented by Zhou Cang, and then threw them out of the city.
