Xun You's strategy is very good, and Jia Xu doesn't have any better strategy. He's really good at protecting himself, but he really doesn't have any good plans at this time. Zhang Yi's soldiers were too powerful, and if Zhang Yi wanted to pursue, even if he was ambushed, it was useless.

Cao Cao adopted Xun You's strategy, he asked Xun You to take Xu Huang to prepare, and then ordered Yu Ban, Xiahou Yuan and others to retreat in turn.

As soon as Cao Cao made a move here, Zhang Yi didn't even go out of the city, so he knew it. The scout stood on the city wall, and after using the telescope to see Cao Ying's movements, he reported it to Zhang Yi. Although the glass technology and lens technology are not very mature, there are still a lot of telescopes, which cannot be guaranteed by other troops, but Zhang Yi and several generals are still equipped.

Zhang Yi received the news and immediately went up to the city wall in person. After he used the telescope to look at it, he finally confirmed, "Cao Cao wants to withdraw his troops, he wants to be beautiful, and it is not so easy to leave!" ”

"Summon, gather the army, send orders to Gao Changgong and Wang Yanzhang, let's go and pursue!"

With Zhang Yi's order, the army was immediately assembled, and with all kinds of baggage, he opened the city gate and set off.

Li Jing heard the news, "Lord, Cao Cao's withdrawal of troops this time is afraid that it will be a fraud!" ”

Zhang Yi nodded, "I know it too!" However, if Cao Cao really withdraws his troops this time, we will waste this opportunity if we don't chase it. ”

When Li Jing heard this, he had no choice but to say: "Since this is the case, then the subordinates will bring 10,000 people as the rear army, and the lord will respond to the queen." ”

Zhang Yi knew what Li Jing meant, this was because he was afraid that he would fall for Cao Cao's strategy, so he left a backhand. Zhang Yi is also afraid of the scheme, although after the scheme, Zhang Yi can ensure that he can retreat with his whole body, but the soldiers cannot. Zhang Yi nodded, gave the tiger talisman to Li Jing, and transferred some excellent generals to Li Jing.

After the arrangements were made, Zhang Yi led the army and chased in the direction of Cao's retreat. In less than an hour, Zhang Yi caught up with Cao Jun's broken team. Xiahou Yuan who led the cavalry was broken, and Xiahou Yuan wanted to lead the cavalry to attack Zhang Yi's pursuers, but as soon as Zhang Yi waved his hand, all the soldiers immediately stopped, and then formed a military formation, and the crossbowmen immediately fired ten thousand arrows, which thwarted Xiahou Yuan's offensive.

Xiahou Yuan left hundreds of corpses and fled, and it should be advantageous to charge the infantry with cavalry. But in the face of a military formation with a strong bow and crossbow, it is to die! When the Han army dealt with the cavalry, the effective means was to wash the ground with bows and crossbows, and under the fire of thousands of arrows, it was more important to say how many people died. Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yi can be said to be invincible all over the world, and any nomadic cavalry will not be able to get any benefit, but in the face of the Xiandeng army led by Lu Yi, the whole army was almost wiped out. The first to ascend to the army was the crossbow, and later these crossbows were captured by Cao Cao in Yecheng.

Tens of thousands of crossbows, the power of shooting together can be imagined. But this is such an attack mode, which is nothing at all here in Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi can form a crossbow at random and pull out a team. Zhang Yi's army of 300,000 has as many as 100,000 crossbows and more than 60,000 bows, and there are more crossbows than bows.

The reason for this is because of Zhang Yi's improved crossbow-making process. Zhang Yijun's bow is still using the traditional bow-making process, but the crossbow uses a new process, which does not need to use animal tendons and horns to increase elasticity, but uses composite materials to smelt a new alloy, which is called an iron tire by craftsmen, and a crossbow is called an iron tire crossbow. This kind of process cannot be applied to the bow, because no one can pull such a bow at all, Zhang Yi's strength is rare in the world, but he still can't pull a bow made of iron tires.

Zhang Yi chased Xiahou Yuan until he was about to reach Bowang. On a small slope, Zhang Yi saw Cao Cao's cover. If the cover is there, Cao Cao must also be there. Zhang Yi said loudly in the direction of Lu Gai: "Cao Mengde, why are you in such a hurry? ”

Zhang Yi's words were completely mocking, and Cao Cao heard it in his ears, and he didn't feel good. Thinking that the assassination of the emperor was done by Zhang Yi, Cao Cao was furious, he rode towards Zhang Yi, pointed at Zhang Yi and said: "Zhang Yi, you are a chaotic minister and thief, you dare to send someone to assassinate the emperor, and you still have the face to show off your power here?" ”

When Zhang Yi heard Cao Cao's words, he was immediately stunned. Assassinate the emperor, when did you do such a thing? Cao Cao wants to cover himself with a hat! He also rode his horse, broke away from his own formation, and said to Cao Cao: "Cao Cao, you made it clear to me, when did I assassinate the emperor?" I thought you Cao Cao was a bright and upright person, but I didn't expect to be so honest and framed. ”

Cao Cao also rode forward, and Xu Chu beside him hurriedly dissuaded, "Lord, Zhang Yi's courage is abnormal, don't be fooled." ”

Cao Cao said: "Then you will follow me, I think Zhong Kang will definitely be able to guarantee my safety." ”

Xu Chu nodded, "Chu can definitely guarantee the safety of the lord." ”

Cao Cao took Xu Chu forward, and when he was about thirty steps away from Zhang Yi, he stopped and said to Zhang Yi: "Zhang Yi, a few days ago, you sent someone to assassinate the emperor, are you still pretending to be innocent here?" ”

Zhang Yi looked at Cao Cao with a sneer, and said disdainfully: "Although I, Zhang Yi, am not a gentleman, but I can't do the trick of secretly assassinating the king and killing the driver." If I had this intention, I would have attacked Xuchang a long time ago, and I am still waiting for you to attack me? ”

When Cao Cao heard Zhang Yi's words, he couldn't help but be puzzled, he took out Xun Yu's letter, showed it to Zhang Yi and said: "This is a letter written by Xun Wenruo to me, on the 15th, the emperor sacrificed to the sky, and was assassinated on the royal road. The assassin used your army's standard crossbow, but he carried the waist card of my subordinate Captain Jin. My Captain Touching Gold never goes to war, and I don't kill—"

"I know!" Zhang Yi interrupted Cao Cao's words, "That's what you used to rob tombs!" ”

Cao Cao was stunned, he didn't expect Zhang Yi to know about his Touching Gold Captain. You must know that this is not a matter of seeing people, so he has always hidden it and kept it from outsiders, so he made people who don't know think that this is a secret army.

How could Cao Cao know that after nearly two thousand years, Captain Touching Jin is famous all over the world.

Zhang Yi was also thinking, "The person who uses the crossbow must be mine, right?" You didn't miss my crossbows. ”

Cao Cao said: "But all the crossbows have been brought to Nanyang by me. ”

Zhang Yi's heart turned, he knew that he didn't give this order, but he didn't know if the people below would be good at making claims. Zhang Yi said: "You and I can't get out of this matter, you and I will temporarily stop the army, and I will send someone to Xuchang to find out." ”
