Cao Hong was hit by an arrow in the cheek, turned over and fell off his horse, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

And after Zhao Zilong saw Cao Hong's arrow fall off his horse, he didn't care about Cao Hong's life or death, raised the spear in his hand, and rushed directly to the three thousand iron horsemen of the Han Dynasty.

The 10,000 iron cavalry behind Zhao Zilong followed Zhao Zilong and launched a thunderous attack on Cao Hong's 3,000 cavalry.

Zhao Zilong took the lead, and a spear in his hand was danced into afterimages.

Almost every one of Cao Hong's cavalry on the opposite side was stabbed in the throat and died, almost without exception.

Just a face, Cao Hong's cavalry team, four or five people were picked off the horse by Zhao Zilong.

At this moment, Zhao Zilong simply turned into a killing god.

Several Cao Hong cavalry nearby were so frightened that even the horses stopped sprinting.

But what is very frightening is that even though they stopped advancing, Zhao Zilong did not stop rushing forward at all!

……

At this time, the cavalry of both sides finally began to collide.

The so-called narrow road meets the brave wins!

The cavalry of the Shenji Battalion, under the leadership of their general Zhao Zilong, can be described as imposing!

Zhao Zilong took the lead, and before them, he had already entered Cao Hong's cavalry ranks.

In just a few moments, Cao Hong's cavalry team was actually killed.

Cao Hong's cavalry, which was directly killed, few dared to face Zhao Zilong.

The cavalry on the road of Zhao Zilong's advance retreated one after another.

And what about the cavalry team led by Cao Hong?

Their leader, Cao Hong, was frightened after a move with the leader of the family, Zhao Zilong, and then was shot to the ground by three arrows.

Now life and death are unknown.

Well, in fact, they estimate that Cao Ren is now estimated to be more auspicious.

After Cao Ren landed, he followed closely followed by the cavalry of the Shenji Battalion, galloping and roaring.

Anyway, he's been trampled into a patty or a mash now, right?

The difference in the performance of the generals on both sides is too great, which directly leads to the fact that the morale gap between the two sides is even greater!

One shock, Cao Hong's 3,000 cavalry, killed and wounded hundreds.

If you add in the death toll of the first round of arrows, the number of their deaths is six or seven hundred.

Six or seven hundred people, the battle damage has exceeded 20%!

If the battle damage is more than 20%, the average team will be defeated.

The cavalry led by Cao Xiu was not an ordinary team.

However, it is a pity that their general, Cao Xiu, is now unknown whether he is alive or dead.

Therefore, without surprise, Cao Xiu's 3,000 cavalry was defeated.

The defeated team no longer had the fighting spirit, and couldn't help but turn the horse's head and flee for their lives.

At this time, Zhao Zilong had two choices.

The first choice is to ignore these cavalry, after all, the purpose of their coming this time is to destroy Cao Cao's grain and grass, since their cavalry has been disabled, it is up to them to escape.

The second option is to kill them as soon as possible and leave no piece of armor left behind these cavalrymen.

In the end, Zhao Zilong chose the second one.

For that force, the cavalry was the best of the best.

Now that I encounter Cao Cao's cavalry here, of course I can't let them go.

So, Zhao Zilong waved his hand, and 10,000 cavalry pursued Cao Xiu's 3,000 cavalry in front of the rear.

……

About half an hour later, none of the 3,000 cavalry led by Cao Xiu were spared, and all of them were killed.

Next, Zhao Zilong ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, and then chased in the direction of the escape of the grain transport team in a hurry.

Zhao Zilong's adjutant couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "General, shouldn't we pursue it with all our might?" ”

Zhao Zilong smiled and said, "No, Cao Cao's grain transportation team is not too close to the distance between the valley and the Wuzhang Plain. There was no possibility for them to flee into the city. ”

The adjutant hesitated for a moment and said, "General, but if the Cao army in Xiegu or Wuzhangyuan rescues in time, it is very likely that the grain and grass will be protected!" Shall we get ahead of them and destroy Cao Cao's grain and grass first? ”

I only heard Zhao Zilong say murderously: "No, this general just wants to wait for the reinforcements from Wuzhangyuan to come from Xiegu, and then kill them all!" ”

Hearing Zhao Zilong's words, the adjutant couldn't help but be taken aback.

Then the adjutant said to Zhao Zilong: "General, however, our first task is to destroy the grain and grass, not to kill the enemy. Do we destroy the grain and grass first, and then think about killing the enemy? ”

Zhao Zilong smiled slightly, and said proudly: "Haven't you heard, the generals are outside, and the military orders are not subject to it?" ”

"If we want to destroy their grain and grass now, of course it will be easy. But what if we destroy this batch of grain and grass from them, and they continue to transport grain and grass from Chang'an? ”

"Next time, they will be heavily guarded! If you want to sneak attack again, it will be even more difficult! ”

"Therefore, General Ben's strategy is to take advantage of this opportunity to directly lure out all the Cao Cao defenders in the Xiegu Valley and Wuzhang Plain. General Ben concluded that there must not be too many defenders on either side. ”

"Lure out the defenders on both sides, and kill them all. We can easily occupy the valley and the Gojo Plain. As long as we firmly block this line, the grain in Chang'an City will not be able to be transported. ”

"As long as this road can be controlled, Cao Cao is short of food, and he will inevitably choose to retreat."

Listening to Zhao Zilong's words, the adjutant couldn't help but show a thoughtful look on his face.

But soon, the adjutant asked: "General, but if the valley is still occupied, the grain and grass of Chang'an cannot be transported." Cao Cao is bound to go crazy, what if he sends a large army to attack the Xiegu and Wuzhangyuan? ”

Hearing the adjutant's words, Zhao Zilong smiled slightly, and said proudly: "There is still a five-zhang plain in the sloping valley, and the terrain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We have 10,000 soldiers and horses, and there will be no problem in supporting it for half a month. ”

"General Ben believes that Cao Cao will not be able to support half a month and will retreat!"

After listening to Zhao Zilong's words, the adjutant couldn't help but take the lead.

Yes, the general's plan is really a brilliant plan!

Zhao Zilong unhurriedly embellished behind the grain transportation team, and sure enough, he drew out the guards of Wuzhangyuan and Xiegu.

This is also a matter of no choice, this batch of grain and grass is too important for Cao Cao's army and cannot be lost.

Therefore, although there were still guards in Wuzhangyuan in Xiegu, knowing that there were 10,000 cavalry of the Great Hua Kingdom outside, they still sent all the soldiers and horses guarding the pass, and did their best to protect this batch of grain and grass.

They originally thought that the 3,000 cavalry led by Cao Ren was no match for the 10,000 cavalry of the Great Hua Kingdom, but no matter what, they could always hold them back for a while.

As long as they can drag on for an hour or two, they can move the grain to the city.

However, what they never expected was that Cao Ren and his 3,000 cavalry only lasted less than half an hour.
