The drums beat loudly.

Cao Cao was riding on a horse and was circling the infantry phalanx to boost the morale of the whole army. He drew the sword at his waist and pointed diagonally at the sky, and continued to instill the idea of fighting to the death in his soldiers as he rode his horse.

Two thousand soldiers who dared to fight and six hundred light horsemen were all Cao Cao's family backgrounds at this time.

Cao Ren, Lou Yi, and Shi Jian led the infantry to form three infantry formations, which were arranged on the battlefield in a zigzag shape. Cao Ren is in the front, Shi Jian is on the right, and Lou Yi is on the left.

Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan led the cavalry to hide behind the infantry formation, and in order to save horsepower, they have not yet mounted their horses.

After boosting morale, Cao Cao came to Xiahoudun's side.

Scout Pegasus comes, "Report ......!" General, the enemy cavalry is three miles away! ”

"Got it." Cao Cao wiped his palms on the leather armor, and at the end of winter, which still exuded the coldness, his palms kept sweating.

Sweat from nervousness and excitement.

"Yuan Rang, order all the knights to get on their horses!"

"Whoa!" Xiahoudun slashed with a big knife and shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, get on the horse!" ”

Six hundred riders turned over and mounted their horses, of which two hundred were led by Xiahou Yuan, in addition to holding spears, they carried strong bows and quivers, all of whom were good at riding and archery.

On the horizon in the distance, a long feather feather was the first to enter Cao Jun's field of vision, which was a crown ornament that only the 'Tiger Ben Zhonglang General' could wear. Then a man riding a fiery red war horse slowly appeared, and Cao Cao raised his eyes to look at it, and his heart was slightly cold.

Lu Bu among the people, and the red rabbit among the horses.

Lu Bu raised his right hand and rode behind him. But seeing him riding a red rabbit horse, walking back and forth left and right like a leisurely stroll, he seemed to be looking at Cao Jun's formation.

The two armies confronted each other, and after half a pillar of incense, two cavalry teams rushed out of Lu Bu's army and outflanked them to the left and right, and facing Cao Ren in the middle was an infantry army with a number of about seven hundred!

Cao Cao and his subordinates were all surprised, but the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and it was impossible to change the existing plan at this time. In the original plan, the infantry formation formed by Cao Ren, Lou Yi, and Shi Jian was used to meet Lu Bu's strongest first wave of charge head-on, desperately paying the price of heavy casualties, as long as the first wave was pushed over, once Lu Bu's cavalry rushed into the infantry formation, Xiahoudun and Xiahou Yuan could lead cavalry reinforcements to catch an enemy by surprise.

It's a pity that Lu Bu doesn't seem to be a brave and unscrupulous person, at least in the battle, he is a very good commander.

When the two armies were about to clash, Xu Chu happened to arrive.

But seeing that the two cavalry on the left and right of Lu Bu collided with Lou Yi and Shi Lian's infantry respectively, the number of these two Lu cavalry was around 500, and the infantry formation of Lou Yi and Shi Lian was only 500 people.

Dian Wei, who came with Xu Chu, changed color and said: "What a powerful enemy general! ”

Looking at the devastating offensive of the two Lu cavalry, Xu Chu said in his heart: Shi Jian and Lou Yi were reused by Cao Cao, and they were not idle people, although there were few foot soldiers under their command, it was really jaw-dropping that they were defeated by Lu Bu's cavalry all of a sudden.

The advantage of cavalry shock infantry is indeed very large, but no matter how big the advantage is, one is that Cao Cao is not a mediocre person, and the traps and trenches that can be arranged before the battle must have a buffering effect, and the other is that Shi Jian and Lou Yi have already adjusted the direction of the top shield spearmen in the front row when they saw Lu Cai coming. Despite this, after all, they were about to collapse, and the leaders of the two cavalry under Lu Bu were by no means ordinary people.

"Ah Wei, Wen Qian, Xiaocheng, you have read carefully, you must remember today's scene firmly."

Le Jin, Dian Wei, and Li Quan, who were beside Xu Chu, immediately nodded heavily.

Xu Chu rubbed his hands, feeling that Cao Cao would most likely not be able to block Lu Bu's impact, so he ordered: "Transfer all the Zhang Shi in our department to one place, and be ready to meet General Cao at any time." ”

Li Quanqi said: "General Cao's side of the previous Cao Zixiao under the command of a thousand people did not move, and there are six hundred light horsemen, the prince, this ...... You may not be defeated. ”

Xu Chu glanced at Li Chuan with a 'you are still too young' look, and said, "General Cao has spare strength, doesn't Lu Bu have it?" He pointed to the front of Cao Ren's infantry formation and continued: "Xiaocheng, have you seen that battalion part?" ”

Seven hundred Lu army infantry is approaching Cao Ren's headquarters.

Li looked at it fixedly, although he was far away and couldn't see the facial expressions of Lu Jun's foot soldiers clearly, but those foot soldiers walked neatly, on their bodies and hands, the armor and fighting equipment were well-equipped, and the indomitable momentum, even if they were far away, was still rushing towards them.

Like the Tiger Guards under Dian Wei, this battalion of foot soldiers is a heavy foot soldier!

Li Cheng was surprised and said, "Whose team is this?" Prince, I think only the Tiger Guard Battalion of the Captain can compete with it! ”

"Trapped, Gao Shun."

"Oh?"

Seeing that Li Cheng and the others were puzzled, obviously they had not heard of Gao Shun's name, Xu Chu was not surprised, but just added: "Every place attacked, there are no people who are invincible, so it is called 'trapped in the camp'." ”

As he was talking, the foot soldiers on both sides were only a dozen steps apart, and Gao Shun's department suddenly accelerated the speed of the sprint, and the foot soldiers in the front row with shields and spears crashed straight into the front row of Cao Ren's department!

Cao Ren also had hundreds of heavily armored foot soldiers, and they were arranged at the forefront in order to prevent cavalry charges, but most of Cao Ren's soldiers were newly recruited young and strong, who had not experienced war, and did not have much opportunity to train, how could they compare with Gao Shun's Bingzhou Erlang in terms of bravery?

The two armies looked at each other and made a judgment.

The troops trapped in the camp did not retreat after being wounded several times, but their fighting spirit was even higher, and in an instant, they had already broken through the barriers carefully arranged by Cao Ren. Cao Ren raised his arms and shouted, personally went into battle, and immediately beheaded several people. But the gap between the strengths and weaknesses of the two sides is too big, and no matter how brave he is, it is just in vain.

Besides, Gao Shun is more courageous than him!

This warrior who was fully armored and only showed his eyes, after a few steps, he came to the deception, raised the heavy sword in his hand, and slashed hard. In an instant, the killing aura on the battlefield seemed to be pouring on this heavy sword, Cao Ren raised his shield to meet him, and after a loud bang, he took ten steps back, standing firmly.

Cao Ren looked at Gao Shun, and his left hand holding the shield trembled slightly.

There was no pain, and his entire left arm seemed to have been removed, unconscious, and drooped down. The shield in his hand had already fallen to the ground, and there was a shocking dent in it.

Several guards came over to protect him behind him, blocking the sight of Gao Shun, Cao Ren felt a little relieved and slowly retreated.

Cao Cao, who saw everything in his eyes, was furious and drove to save Cao Ren.

"If it weren't for Zixiao's diligent practice of martial arts when he was young, I'm afraid he would have fallen on the battlefield at this time!" Cao Cao thought in his heart, and said to Xiahou Xuan and Xiahou Yuan: "Yuan Rang, you follow me to save Zixiao!" Miaocai, you go to rescue Lou Yi and Shi Lian! ”

......

Xu Chu also moved. He ordered Dian Wei to stabilize the formation, ordered Le Jin to arrange Zhang Shi, and he and Li Cheng rode lightly to support Cao Cao.

Cao Cao's infantry was almost scattered, and if Xiahoudun and Xiahouyuan's cavalry were lost again, the significance of the Xu and Cao's combined forces would no longer exist. Without Cao Cao's strong support, relying on Xu Chu alone, don't talk about begging Dong, even if he is 'secretly fighting' with Sun Jian, he has no confidence. Therefore, although he ventured into the chaos, Xu Chu had to go over in person and let Cao Cao evacuate as soon as possible.

As soon as Cao Cao, Xiahoudun, Xiahou Yuan, Li Quan, and other cavalry arrived, the situation improved. Xiahou Yuan was good at riding and archery, and so did the two hundred knights he trained. In the process of rescuing Lou Yi and Shi Lian, Xiahou Yuan led the cavalry to gallop to help, first shot arrows with a bow to kill Lu Cai, and after a rain of arrows, then rushed to kill, with Xiahou Yuan's bravery, he finally rescued the injured Shi Jian and Lou Yi.
