Bang bang bang...

The assault guns of the 3rd Division were still desperately firing.

When Cao Ren's war horse entered the firing range, it was devastated.

Over time, the number of lost horses was incalculable.

But the forward rush of the light rider is fast. After a period of impact, it moved forward for more than six hundred meters. Now it is only 300 meters away from the 3rd line of defense where the 3rd Division is located.

The division commander Jiang He didn't dare to be careless, and shouted behind him: "The bombing battalion is ready..." ”

"When the enemy comes within a range of fifty meters, throw three rounds of grenades in a row..."

Jiang He's voice fell. More than 300 soldiers stepped forward with grenades and stood in the trenches. Just wait for Cao Ren's cavalry to come over and solve it all at once.

Three hundred meters.

Two hundred meters.

One hundred meters.

Fifty meters.

Jiang He silently calculated the distance between the two sides in his heart, and suddenly shouted: "Bomb battalion, attack!" ”

Whew...

There were more than 300 grenades, and they were thrown 50 meters away.

When the grenade landed, the enemy advanced another ten meters or so.

At such a distance, the grenade can be smashed out to cover the effect of firepower. Any enemy within the projectile range will not be able to escape the fate of being blown up.

Boom boom...

All the grenades landed. An earth-shattering bang rang out.

Most of the enemy soldiers were blown into the sky.

The horses were dismembered.

Blood spurted wildly, and gunsmoke filled the air.

"This..." Cao Ren watched from behind, only feeling that there was a flower in front of him, and the thousands of troops in front of him were gone. What caught my eye was a blurry mist of blood.

"I didn't expect the enemy to have such strong firepower....

The corners of Cao Ren's mouth twitched, and he was a little scared in his heart.

He was now in a dilemma.

If the offensive continues, the casualties will be too great. It's good if you can rush through, but if you can't, you will lose your troops in vain.

Cao Xing ran back to his headquarters.

Xu Shu and Song Xian stood outside the headquarters, excitedly watching the battlefield.

"Sir."

Cao Xuan hugged Xu Shu with a fist.

Xu Shu didn't bother to turn his head to look at Cao Xing, stared at the bottom, and said with a smile: "Jiang He's 3rd Division has good combat effectiveness." If you fight like this, you will definitely be able to hold the third line of defense. ”

"The combat effectiveness of the new army, that's famous. Cao Ren wanted to rush through the defense line at the speed of a light horse, which was a fool's dream. Song Xian said.

"Hmm."

Xu Shu nodded, looked at Cao Xing on the side and said, "General Cao, let's go back to the battlefield." Gather your Third Army, as well as General Song, your Second Army, and all gather to retake the two lines of defense in front. ”

"No..."

Song Xian and Cao Xing answered together.

The three lines of defense, which are located in the middle of some commanding heights, cut off the official road, and the geographical location is very important. Now that two have been lost, even if the 3rd Division is brave and good at fighting, it is very unsettling.

After Song Xian and Cao Xuan understood Xu Shu's thoughts, they quickly went.

......................

The battle went on for more than an hour.

With the assistance of the 3rd Division, Cao He and Song Xian's two armies were the main forces of the attack and recaptured the two lines of defense in front. drove Cao Ren's righteous army light cavalry to five miles away.

It is indeed gratifying to have achieved such an achievement.

However, Jiang He's 3rd Division has run out of ammunition. The grenades were also all gone. The current 3rd Division no longer has any combat effectiveness. They stood on the battlefield and became mere decorations.

"Don't attack, don't attack..."

Cao Ren broke out in a cold sweat.

His 100,000 light horsemen, in just over an hour, actually suffered nearly half of the casualties!

With such heavy casualties, they did not push further, and were counterattacked by the enemy.

Cao Ren did not dare to risk attacking the position ahead.

He rode a fast horse and ran back to report to Cao Cao: "King Wei, King Wei..." ”

"How's the war going?"

"The last will be incompetent." Cao Ren knelt down and said, "After attacking for nearly two hours, more than half of the casualties of the righteous army were killed. Not... There is no step forward. ”

"What?"

Cao Cao and Sima Yi were all shocked by Cao Ren's words. 100,000 righteous soldiers rode lightly and attacked for half a day, but they were standing still? And half of the casualties?

"General Cao Ren, what the hell is going on? Isn't the combat effectiveness of the volunteer army extremely strong? Sima Yi asked.

"General Cao Ren, how many enemy casualties are there?" Xun Yu also asked.

Faced with the reproaches of the two military divisions, Cao Ren replied one by one: "Mr. Yu Zhongda, Mr. Yu Wenruo." Our light cavalry was held back by Han Shin's 3rd Division. The enemy's offensive is fierce, so .... However, Cao Xing's 3rd Army and Song Xian's 2nd Army suffered more than 2,000 casualties. ”

"Only two thousand casualties?!" Xun Yu rolled his eyes and said in his heart: "You also said this." ”

"Ugh...."

Sima Yi sighed.

According to this proportion of casualties, I am afraid that I will not be able to rush through even if I am dead.

Cao Cao was also very puzzled, and said: "According to the information we have, Xu Shu's 1st Army does not have much ammunition. Before, Cao Ren led 200,000 troops to pursue, and he didn't dare to turn back to face the battle. And now it is.... ”

"It's weird, indeed." Sima Yi also fell into deep thought. After a while, he said: "Han Xin's 1st Army, there are two divisions to attack Guangcheng Pass. Leaving a division to assist Song Xian and Cao Xing, stationed in the east. He had been resisting for half a day. It stands to reason that there should be no ammunition left. General Cao, why don't you try it again? ”

"Ahh Still trying? ”

Cao Ren didn't want to humiliate himself anymore, and said with a bitter face: "The last general looks at the 3rd Division under Han Xin, and there is still quite a lot of spare strength." If we don't attack well, the remaining 50,000 light horsemen will have to be lost here. King Wei, it's better to retreat to Dongjun, right? ”

"yes, let's retreat to East County." Cheng Yu also said.

"No!"

Cao Cao took a deep breath and said, "Try again!" I also don't believe that Han Shin's 3rd Division, which has ample ammunition. Cao Ren, you lead the righteous army again and rush to kill me! ”

"Uh, yes..."

Although Cao Ren was reluctant in his heart, Cao Ren gave the order, and he could only grit his teeth and fight.

Whether it is dead or alive, it depends on the will of God.

Da Da...

Cao Ren led the 50,000 righteous soldiers and cavalry, and arrived at Cao Xing's position.

Together with Cao Xing, there was also Jiang He's 3rd Division. But the 3rd division ran out of ammunition, and there were no grenades. Their role on the battlefield is undoubtedly just a decoration, used to scare Cao Ren.

Seeing that Cao Ren was making a comeback again, Jiang He said to Cao Xing: "General Cao, I can't help it." The rest of the battle can only be fought by your 2nd and 3rd armies. ”

"Okay, General Chiang should step back and rest."

Cao Xing replied.

"Hmm." Jiang He led the 3rd Division out of the 3rd line of defense and retreated to a high ground five miles away. It's out of the battlefield.

In the Command.

Xu Shu also had a sad face when he saw Cao Ren appear again.

"Someone."

"Yes." A soldier approached.

Xu Shu instructed: "Go and tell Han Xin to occupy Guangcheng Pass quickly." Or send a division over and repel Cao Ren first. ”
