Chapter 772. The pain of Guandu reappeared
"Oh, ah, ah, ......"
In the night, the terrible screams rang out one after another, it was really like a game, and in the sparse noise, the defenders of Wancheng were knocked up like rag dolls.
A Dawan horse is one meter seven or eight high at the shoulder, and its weight has reached several hundred catties, counting the people and equipment, each war horse weighs nearly a ton, and it is slammed out at a speed of about forty per hour, and the light infantry who is not well fed and dressed well and weighs only a few dozen catties does not even have the qualifications to stand in front of the horse.
The cavalry horses and lances held under the crotch were even more bloody, and even the horses were trampled to death, the spears were stabbed to death, and hundreds of people were trampled to death.
However, just like the battle of King of Jerusalem to break Saladin, the killing and wounding of the heavy cavalry is actually not as good as the mercenary light infantry of the rear army, and the Wancheng defenders who were trampled to a sparse place have not waited for their composure, and the Wancheng rebels behind them are also holding double-bowed steel crossbows, and they rushed up in pieces.
In the sound of crackling arrows into the flesh, those defenders were almost shot into the wall in pieces, the formations were broken, just inherited by the trampling impact, and then wiped out in pieces, the rebels and the second-line troops in Jingzhou, who were already not high-spirited, were like rats crossing the street, throwing torches and knives in their hands, drilling into the alley, and in a blink of an eye, thousands of troops disappeared completely.
Cross-era tactics, the Iron Cavalry tactics are simply the deadly nemesis of these light infantry. But after all, the big guys all rose up in Wancheng to rebel, with a love of incense, the other party broke up, and those defenders did not chase after them, holding heavy crossbows, following the giant beast iron horsemen who were directly chiseled through the infantry array, and went straight to Wancheng Tunliang in the center of the city to kill it.
However, it seems that this iron cavalry burst is a little too ferocious, waiting for Cao Zhang to kill the place with a torch vigorously, the Wancheng defenders, who got the news of the remnants of the army first, actually took the lead in igniting the grain pile, the raging fire roared, and the granaries of the people's fat and ointment burned like huge torches, and even the fire of more than a dozen granaries were connected to one piece, and the rising fire was more than ten meters high, and even within a radius of dozens of miles could be seen clearly.
Looking at this steaming fire, Cao Zhang couldn't help but be in a daze, he didn't even have to do this hard work by himself, this was solved?
But at this moment, there were bursts of terrible roars and scolding from the nearby mansion, and the roar before being slaughtered and dying, the sound of blood splashing was right behind! Stunned, he turned his head and glanced at Xu Yue, who was drenched in a bloody iron helmet on his horse, and Cao Zhang slapped him hurriedly.
"Let's go!"
In the sound of clanging, the door of Wancheng Prison was directly smashed by the iron cavalry, and a messy scene inside suddenly appeared in the eyes of Cao Zhang and others, on the ground, was escorted out, and the Cao Jun prisoners who were only wearing a shirt were slaughtered on the ground in pieces, and the corpses had accumulated a thick layer, but these slaughtered prisoners were not chicks, they were cut when they said they were cut, I don't know who took advantage of the unpreparedness of the defenders, and knocked down one, and then the prisoners who were imprisoned all rioted, pinching the defenders' chests and tying their necks with iron chains, In those days, there were no rifles and pistols, and the difference between cold weapons and bare hands was not so big, and the whole prison was in a mess.
When Cao Zhang and the others broke in, the Jingzhou army in the back row was still pulling the bow and slaughtering, Leng Buding was taken aback, and raised his head in astonishment, and on the other end, the Cao army prisoners who were beaten with blood on their faces also raised their heads, and the eyes of the first two Cao army generals who were drawn with blood on their faces also came into view, not Cao Ren Yu Ban, the two Cao army captured senior generals or which!
After all, it was his uncle, seeing that Cao Ren was hit by another electric cannon and was beaten with a one-eyed blue, Cao Zhang is throat was snorted, and in the heavy sound of crackling, the dismounted iron cavalry squeezed in like the canned food box leaked.
…………
Early in the morning, Sima Yi stood comfortably on the city tower, looking down at the layers of Guan Yu's army camp, he is now satisfied, he got the head of Sun Wolf, he can't run away from the first merit of defending Xudu City, and yesterday's Chang'an Legion was really bloody, both defeated in the Jingzhou Army suffered heavy losses, now Guan Yu wants to capture Xudu, it is difficult to go to the sky, he just needs to wait for Cao Cao's army to return, and then get a savior in the Kwantung clan, and become an indispensable big man in the Cao Wei Dynasty.
Even Sima Yi could vaguely see himself wearing a high crown and standing in front of the court in a row.
"The third prince is really a real person!"
But in Sima Yi's emotion, bursts of violent military drums sounded from the hills and mountains, and then, in Sima Yi's unbelievable eyes, again, just after the night of the battle, the Guanzhong Army, which had suffered a full fifth of the casualties, was holding high the banner of the king character and the Cao character, and the neat phalanx was like a black iron block, and the Guan Yu army rushed out of the city again.
This is really a little scared Sima Yi, with the momentum of the horns outside the city, he can easily stand Xuchang City, if the Chang'an Corps is annihilated, he is also cold lips and teeth, full of sadness to pat his thighs, he is extremely depressed while running downstairs in the city, while roaring sadly.
"Someone! Prepare the horses! The old man wants to go to see Cao Sangongzi in person! Impulsive! ”
Sima Lao Turtle also had a strategy, he fooled Cao Zhang to rescue the imprisoned Cao Ren and the prisoners of the forbidden department, but he didn't want this strategy to really come true! Yu Ban, Cao Ren's remnants were actually imprisoned in Wancheng by Guan Yu, a total of more than 13,000 people, nearly 1,000 were slaughtered, and more than 12,000.
Wancheng is armed! And after being detained for more than a month, in the era when there was no international law, the anger in the stomachs of these captured Cao Jun can be imagined!
Early in the morning, in the loud shout, tens of thousands of Cao soldiers angrily held their long knives high, roared and really slaughtered into the fake prisoner of war camp arranged by Guan Yu, and slashed the Jingzhou troops guarding the rear army like wheat after autumn, and cut them to the ground one by one.
In the Chinese army, 500 iron cavalry really pierced into the crowd like tanks, and everywhere they passed, the spectacular scene of people turning over on their backs was revealed.
And just when Sima Yi hurriedly left Dongcheng, the Chang'an Legion of the former army also fiercely entered the army, and under his watchful eyes, Guan Yu's majestic Guanzi banner collapsed violently, and he couldn't help but slap his thigh sadly.
"Don't!"
