Guo Peng gave an order, and the war drums rumbled.

At present, the front troops on Guo Peng's side have also finished arraying, looking directly at the direction of the Yuan Shu army array in front, the shield soldiers, sword soldiers and spearmen are in full array, and the crossbowmen are ready to launch in the rear, just waiting for the order to be issued.

Less leaning, Yuan Shu's army array entered the range of the bow and crossbow, Guo Peng raised his hand to give the order, the drumming of the preparation for battle suddenly stopped, and the short drum sound immediately sounded.

"Shoot !!"

The commanders of the various military formations received the order and immediately issued an order, and the neat and uniform order suddenly sounded in the military formation where there was no noise at all, and then thousands of arrows rose into the air, crossed a beautiful arc, and fell straight towards Yuan Shu's military formation.

The sharp three-edged arrow crossed the sky and landed in Yuan Shu's military formation with unmistakable accuracy.

Yuan Shu dispatched the elite of the former army to fight against Guo Peng, and the army carried a large number of shields to protect it, although it was prepared in advance, but in the face of such a dense rain of arrows, the number of shields was still slightly insufficient.

Arrows rained down, round after round, and such a high-density and high-frequency long-range fire suppression made it very difficult for Yuan Shu's army to advance, and it was difficult to move forward.

From time to time, a soldier was killed by an arrow, and the defense was opened a hole, and a large number of arrows seemed to rush in, killing a group of people around him, so that the defense gap slowly widened, and gradually became out of control.

Yuan Shu saw that something was wrong, and immediately ordered the crossbowmen of his army to fight back, but because the arrow suppression on Guo Peng's side was too strong, it was difficult for the crossbowmen on Yuan Shu's side to fight back.

The suppression of long-range vitality frustrated the attack on Yuan Shu's side, and Yuan Shu was very annoyed, and immediately ordered more military formations to carry more shields against the crossbowmen and crossbowmen to counterattack.

However, the effect of the counterattack was very limited, and in the face of the unabated arrow rain suppression on Guo Peng's side, Chen's army was still struggling, and a large number of soldiers were killed.

Yuan Shu was very anxious when he saw this, and directly ordered the cavalry to attack.

Lu Mian hurriedly stopped.

"Your Majesty, Guo Thief's cavalry is more than ours, and our army has fewer cavalry, so we can't use it now, otherwise once we lose, it will be difficult to retreat!"

What Lu Mian said, Yuan Shu also knew that the war horses on his side were all controlled by Guo Peng in the north of the war horse trade, and then sold them cheaply to himself, so that he could get enough war horses to form cavalry, but since he became the emperor on his side, he has never received a horse sent by Guo Peng.

That is, to rob the house of a powerful landlord, you can get some horses scattered and scattered.

Regardless of whether there are stirrups or not, war horses are high military consumer goods, and the loss of war horses is particularly headache after every battle.

That is to say, Guo Peng has been playing the war horse trade for so many years, and he can afford to consume war horses, but Yuan Shu is essentially difficult to afford.

Now that the source of war horses has been lost, the number of war horses is becoming scarcer and scarcer, and Yuan Shu has less than 5,000 cavalry in his hands for mobilization.

If they were all sent out to fight, once they were all destroyed, it would not be a joke.

But......

"If the front army is broken up and everything is over, where can there be any cavalry? Do as Lone says! ”

Yuan Shu threw all his strength into it at all costs.

So the remaining cavalry of Yuan's army was sent out to fight for the few insignificant odds of winning the war.

However, as the largest prince in the North, the number of cavalry under Guo Peng's command is the highest in the world, and the elite level can be said to be one of the best.

Seeing the cavalry under Yuan Shu's command, Guo Peng decisively ordered the cavalry to attack, hedge with Yuan Shu's cavalry, and annihilate Yuan Shu's strategic mobile force.

The sound of war drums changed abruptly, and the cavalry attacked, Zhao Yun and Guo Lie were on one side, each leading 3,000 cavalry out of the battle, and met Yuan Shu's cavalry from both flanks.

Yuan Shu's cavalry and Guo Peng's cavalry soon began their respective confrontations, cavalry shooting, close combat, the battle situation was stalemate, and the battle was fierce.

At the same time, Yuan Shu's front army formation suffered heavy losses from the rain of arrows, and Guo Jia immediately suggested that Guo Peng send troops to attack and destroy Yuan Shu's front army formation.

"Yuan Highway attacked in front with the elite, and assisted by cavalry, obviously trying to fight a quick battle, our army should immediately attack and defeat its front army, the front army is scattered, the Chinese army is unstable, the Chinese army is unstable, the overall situation is decided, general, should attack immediately!"

Guo Peng listened to Guo Jia's suggestion and immediately ordered the front army formation to decisively stop the salvo and attack forward.

Receiving the order of drums and flags, Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Le Jin, and Yu Ban each led their respective military formations and began to attack forward.

Guo Peng's army began to formally attack, and the sergeants stepped forward in neat steps, marching forward like a wall, with battle cries repeatedly, and the aura of slaughter overflowing, making people fearful, not daring to face it directly, and losing in momentum.

Qiao Rui, Li Feng, Liang Gang and other generals of the Chen army saw that Guo Peng's army had launched an attack, and hurriedly commanded the army to stabilize its position and prepare to meet the enemy, but it was a pity that the army was scattered and difficult to quickly rectify, and the quality of the soldiers was not high enough, so it was difficult to quickly reorganize the army to meet the enemy.

Then they were faced with cold, sharp spears and murderous eyes.

"Thorn!"

The front-line commander shouted the order, and the spearman stabbed his spear fiercely, stabbed it along the gap between the opponent's shields, pierced into the enemy's body, and then pulled it back fiercely, bringing out a string of blood and sprinkling it on the shield and the ground.

It's still steaming.

The cold spear stabbed out without any emotion, and then pulled it back fiercely, and so on and so forth, until there was no enemy in sight.

And the enemy will not fight back, some people will also bravely raise their spears to fight back, piercing their spears into the opposing military formation, killing the enemy and protecting themselves.

But the battlefield is not the battlefield of one person, but the battlefield of a group of people.

One person's bravery cannot solve a whole war, and the victory of a war requires unity, not individual heroism.

Zhang Liao, Zhang He, Le Jin, and Yu Ban each commanded their respective military formations to face the same enemy in the same battle, doing exactly the same thing, and commanding an army that was good at obeying orders, as handy as waving their own arms.

On the other hand, on Yuan Shu's side, except for a few veterans, most of them were temporary strong men, who had not undergone much training, could not understand the sound of drums, could not understand the flags, and even did not understand the general's orders, so they could not implement them well.

There was a big problem in the connection between command and execution, and some problems could not be repaired and corrected in a timely manner, and progress could not be kept up in time, and soon the command system failed.

The battle lasted for half an hour, and after half an hour, the situation on the battlefield was one-sided.

The large-scale rout of Yuan Shu's front-line army could not stop the advance momentum of Guo Peng's army, and on the cavalry battlefield, Zhao Yun and Guo Lie also achieved great results.

After the cavalry shooting, it is a throwing weapon salute.

Zhao Yun led the well-trained cavalry to wave the hand axe and greet directly at the opposite door, and the whistling hand axe knocked a large number of Yuan Shu's cavalry to the ground, and the lucky ones dodged, and the unlucky ones were directly hacked to death.

Finally, there was hand-to-hand combat, Zhao Yun led the cavalry to attack Yuan Shu's cavalry with spears, and picked them off their horses one by one, and the battle was quite fierce.
