As soon as Cao Shuo's words fell, all the Cao soldiers were ready.

Because last night, Cao Shuo had already predicted Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang's tricks.

If Cao Shuo defended by himself, he would also set up an ambush here halfway up the mountain, and then use the terrain to attack in batches.

Now the slope of the hill where the Cao army came up is very steep, and the surrounding area is densely packed with mountains and forests, which can have the effect of preventing the Cao army from escaping.

At that time, everyone in Cao's army was surrounded by Liu Bei's army, like a huge meat bun.

Even if Cao Shuo had artillery, it was completely useless in the formation of front and rear attacks, and what was waiting for Cao Xuan was only defeat.

But Cao Shuo was already ready for battle at this time.

The Cao soldiers heard Cao Shuo's order, and the soldiers on the front and back sides immediately raised their shields.

In the face of such terrain, as long as they are flanked by Liu Bei's army, it is a dead end, but now because of the shields on both sides, it will take a while for Liu Bei's men and horses to break through to the crowd.

The terrain is narrow, and Liu Bei's army will be separated by shields at that time, and even if they are numerous, they will all be squeezed together.

Liu Bei had the most soldiers here above the hillside, so the location here was the top priority, and Cao Shuo specially sent his Flying Tigers to defend it.

However, Liu Bei's men also began to break through.

Before the cavalry arrived, the archers from afar began to rain arrows.

Bows and arrows rained down from the sky, and Cao's army suffered more than 100 casualties in the blink of an eye.

"Rush, kill me!"

Ma Chao and Zhang Fei, who were in charge of rushing down, were both riding fast horses at this time, leading some cavalry to launch an iron-blooded attack.

This is also the place where Cao Shuo has the most defensive manpower, and two generals must attack, and Ma Chao and Zhang Fei are undoubtedly the most suitable candidates.

Although Zhang Fei is simple-minded and has developed limbs, Ma Chao is brave and resourceful, and it is very suitable for these two people to make up for each other.

Ma Chao also understood at this time that if he wanted to take down this nest of Cao troops now, he had to break up the shield in front of him first, so even if he faced the bow and arrow and sharp blade hidden in the gap between the shields, he had to tear a gap for the cavalry behind.

And Zhang Fei and Ma Chao were actually prepared, and there were a large number of cavalry, so it was very simple to concentrate on attacking the shield at this time.

Ma Chao needless to say, and Zhang Fei is best at attacking and rushing, at this time he raised a shield in his left hand to block in front of him, and a big knife in his back hand was behind him, shouting and attacking Cao Jun.

Soon, Ma Chao and Zhang Fei rushed out of the jungle with the cavalry in a blink of an eye, and now they were less than thirty meters away from the shield soldiers outside.

These thirty meters can be reached in almost a few seconds, and at this time, a smile of victory appeared on the faces of all Liu Bei's soldiers.

But at this moment, the shield outside suddenly opened, revealing the swarthy hole inside.

"What is this!"

At the first glance of the cave, Ma Chao felt that something was wrong.

Then, an inexplicable fear suddenly permeated his heart.

"Retreat, hurry!"

Ma Chao's sixth sense, cultivated by his long time of killing, saved his life, and after shouting, he took the lead and jumped off his horse.

But at this time, the other Liu Bei cavalry was unlucky.

In such a stunned moment, the muzzle of the cannon instantly burst out with evil flames, as well as countless iron sands.

Knock knock.

The iron sand with flames directly covered the cavalry led by Ma Chao like a heavenly maiden scattering flowers.

"Haha, this is a shotgun, stupid!" After a round of firing, Cao Shuo said with a grin.

In fact, before the war, Cao Shuo continued to choose artillery, but this time he replaced the previous iron ball with a pile of iron sand, and the principle was similar to that of modern ***.

And the attack of the shotgun, within a range of more than ten meters, is definitely a devastating existence!

Ma Chao and Zhang Fei were all within the range of artillery, and all of them were killed.

And the armor on their bodies that looks indestructible is like a piece of tissue paper in front of *** at this time, and even the shield that blocks the rain of arrows is also shattered at this time.

The moment the shotgun hit their bodies, a huge hole was directly torn open, and their bodies were directly shattered into pieces, and blood gushed out in an instant.

The group of people who were still aggressive just now have been attacked by a wave of shotguns, and they are almost wiped out in the blink of an eye.

And Zhang Fei and Ma Chao actually followed a lot of cavalry, but after seeing the power of the shotgun, few dared to continue to step forward.

Zhang Fei was holding a broken shield at this time, and the whole person was stunned in place.

Fortunately, he was not directly hit by the shotgun, but was only scraped by the iron sand, otherwise he would have been directly beaten into a hornet's nest.

When people saw this scene during the cold weapon period, it was impossible for them to have the courage to continue fighting.

At this time, Cao Shuo quickly asked people to continue to reload and adjust the direction of the artillery, aiming at the retreat of Liu Bei's soldiers.

Cao Shuo's front road was handed over to the soldiers led by Cao Ang, and the back road was handed over to the general ban.

The Flying Tigers skillfully continued to load and aim, and in less than a minute, two hundred guns fired simultaneously in two directions at the same time.

Knock knock.

The shotgun made a loud noise again, with a terrifying whistling sound, and shot directly at the soldiers who Liu Bei was about to flank the front and back just now.

The iron sand shot out again in flames, and Liu Bei's army, which was about to continue the attack just now, was beaten to pieces again.

And now because of the narrow road, the people on Liu Bei's side can only be bloated and crowded together.

is also because of such a formation, each of them has become Cao Shuo's live target.

Two hundred guns, between the narrow mountain roads, between the uphill slopes of the ravines, between the crowded soldiers, directly put them in purgatory on earth.

At this time, Liu Bei, who was in Gao Gao, saw this scene, and the people who were directly shocked were stupid.

The last time he saw artillery, it was when Liu Bei attacked Xuchang at night, because it was very dark at night, he didn't have a chance to really see the power of artillery.

But this time is different.

Their large armies were neatly lined up to form a dense formation, and the power and horror of the artillery were vividly displayed at this time.

Liu Bei never dreamed that he would be able to see this scene of purgatory on earth, and the devastating artillery also left an indelible impression on the hearts of everyone in Liu Bei's army.

"Spread out the formation, attack on both sides, infantry on top!"

At this moment, Zhuge Liang beside Liu Bei suddenly roared.

Slightly surprised, Liu Bei also woke up as if in a dream:

"Spread out, avoid the power of artillery, attack!"

Now, in fact, Liu Bei and their only chance!
