The endless rain of arrows finally stopped, and the soldiers of the Xinhan Army, in one breath, shot the quiver bags hanging on their bodies into the air, and saw that they had completely stopped the charge of the Cao cavalry, and completely stunned the Cao cavalry who were charging, so they naturally stopped.

In front of the cavalry of the New Han Army, there was a mess, countless Cao Army cavalry, all shot to the ground, the grass, has already been stained with blood, blood flowed like a river, bloody sky, miserable.

The whine of the arrows breaking through the air dispersed far away, leaving only the screams and cries of the Cao army's cavalry, and there was chaos.

Xiahoudun was anxious at this moment, he knew that in front of the cavalry formation of the New Han Army, once the blow covered by the rain of arrows stopped, then it would definitely be the moment when the cavalry of the New Han Army launched an attack. And his cavalry seemed to be completely stunned by the fierce blows of the New Han Army at this time, and one by one they stopped tightening their horses, staring blankly at the area of flesh and blood.

He knew that he couldn't go on like this, and a little later, the cavalry army he brought out from Chen Liucheng didn't say that he wanted to contain the New Han Army so that the Cao Army in the other pass of the Northern Route Army could come to his senses and retreat. I'm afraid that my army will be wiped out here, but I can't achieve my goal.

He gritted his teeth and let out a loud shout that he pushed away the war horse that had accompanied him for many years, and at this time he didn't have time to remember this old guy who was covered with arrow feathers and had been blurred with flesh and blood. He casually grasped the weapon that he had never left his hand, and a carp jumped up, pulled his legs back, and shouted as he ran, "What are you still doing in a daze?" The New Han Army is going to attack and kill, pass on the order of General Ben! The rear becomes the front, and the fire quickly retreats. Withdraw Chenliu! Also, spread out the ranks as much as possible. At the same time, rush out to the left and right, quickly! ”

"General!"

Some Cao Bing. Ben was shocked by the tragic situation in front of him, but at this moment, he suddenly saw that his main general was not killed by the rain of arrows of the New Han Army, and escaped safely from the battlefield full of corpses. Suddenly a little tearful, Kuang screamed.

Of course, they also came to their senses immediately, and hurriedly passed on Xiahoudun's order, while turning their horses' heads, and destroying the soldiers in the rear to retreat quickly.

After Xiahoudun gave the order, he ran to an ownerless war horse. Fly on the horse, control the frightened war horse, pat the horse's belly, don't dare to turn back, and run for your life.

At this time, on both sides of the cavalry formation of the New Han Army, the two cavalry armies of the minority tribes that went out around the front also launched an attack on the Cao army. These two cavalry armies of the New Han Army, they did not kill them directly. Instead, they kept a distance from the Cao cavalry that were charging over, and kept shooting those Cao cavalry with their precise arrows.

Originally. In Liu Yi's heart, he actually did not intend to let the military horses of a small number of tribes outside the Saiwai participate in the war in the interior of the Han Dynasty. However, Lan Ji and Yi Qian and other women of the minority tribe said something to Leo. makes Liu Yi feel that this is also the case. They said that since the husband was able to regard so many foreign tribes that originally had feuds with the Han people as the Chinese nation. And it can also rule the Hu people without discrimination, and. has also been committed to the indoctrination of the Hu people, so did Fujun involve their tribal military horses in the matter of unifying the Han Dynasty, wouldn't it make their tribesmen more recognize their identity as Chinese? Only by participating in it will there be a sense of substitution, and only then will their tribesmen slowly form a sense of national glory. At least, they are all the New Han Army, and the officers and soldiers in the army basically have to get promotion opportunities based on their military merits, if they are deliberately excluded by Liu Yi by Liu Yi, this will only make them feel in their hearts that they are still different from the Han people, so how can their clansmen really return to the New Han Dynasty?

Let their tribal warhorses participate in the war, so that their people can merge with the Han people more quickly.

Liu Yi felt that what they said did have some truth. At the very least, let them participate in it, so that they can feel the importance of the imperial court towards their minority tribes.

Of course, it is naturally not too easy for those military horses of small tribes to get to participate in the war, and they have to go through a lot of selection before they can participate in the war. For example, to absolutely obey orders, to be able to meticulously carry out all the orders of the New Han Army, everyone must be familiar with the military discipline of the New Han Army, and their personal has never had a bad record of oppressing the people. Only such a person can participate in this battle to unify the world.

Doing so is tantamount to selecting some people with better character from among the few tribesmen, and it is unlikely that they will ever betray the Han people in the future. Because the military horses of these small tribes participate in the war, it is inevitable that some people will be promoted by virtue of their military merits in the future, so in the future, there will definitely be courtiers or generals of a small number of tribesmen, so now, we have to test those people of different races to see if they are really not of our race.

However, having said that, Liu Yi never planned to let those foreign races relocate to the Central Plains of the Han people in a big way, Liu Yi will only improve the living environment of those foreign people as much as possible, and even, relocate some Han people to their places to reproduce, take advantage of the super reproductive ability of the Han people, and slowly become the masters of their places and become the leaders of the outside of the Saiwai, so that those minority tribes, although they have obtained a better survival, will never become the master of this world, and will never be stronger than the Han people. This can also be said to be a little selfishness of Liu Yi as a Han Chinese.

In addition, although it will not allow the aliens to move into the Central Plains of the Han Dynasty, but it can develop everywhere, after the New Han Dynasty unified the Han Dynasty, Liu Yi is ready to send troops to conquer the world, and when the time comes, when the Far East marches to Western Europe, the cavalry of these small tribes may become the main force along the way, so that the real "****" will spread to the European continent in advance.

Therefore, although the cavalry of these small tribes still adopts the cavalry guerrilla tactics they are good at, under the orders of the New Han Army, their strikes are much more orderly. Advance or retreat are all in order, no longer as they used to be, swarms up, swarms retreat, and the attack or damage to the enemy is no longer as slight as before.

Right now. Every round of bows and arrows is fired in an orderly manner. It looks like a salvo of bows and arrows from the New Han Army. However, the landing point was different, the cavalry of these small tribes, their bows and arrows, did not fall towards an area, but went straight to the Cao soldiers on those horses.

In this way, their lethality is amazing, and in front of their military formation, the situation seen is also different from the situation in front of the military formation of the Han New Han Army. In front of the bow and arrow array of the real Han New Han Army. Those who fell, including Cao Bing and their war horses, were really covered by the rain of arrows of the New Han Army, and there were no chickens and dogs left. However, in front of the cavalry of a small number of tribes, it was only those Cao soldiers who fell, and most of their war horses could be saved.

That is to say. After the war, the cavalry of the New Han Army of these minority tribes, their capture, will have many more excellent war horses.

The battle. There is not much suspense anymore, when the Chinese cavalry of the New Han Army is under Yan Liang's order. After the whole army rushed out, a small number of tribal cavalry on both flanks. also followed the outflanking past.

The cavalry of the Cao army, which had already begun to retreat under the orders of Xiahoudun. Immediately and directly, the rout, the whole field, was full of panicked fleeing soldiers, as well as the pursuing cavalry of the New Han Army.

This battle once again hit Xiahoudun deeply, and made him see clearly the gap between the strength of their Cao army and the New Han army.

Of the 100,000 cavalry, only a small half fled back to Chenliucheng.

As soon as he returned to Chen Liucheng, Xiahoudun did not hesitate any longer, and immediately ordered Chen Liu's original Cao army guards to defend Chen Liucheng, and he did not stop, Pegasus returned to Luoyang, and reported his experience to Cao Cao.

This cavalry encounter, within a day, reached the ears of the Cao army defenders in the northern passes. For a time, the entire Cao Army's Northern Route Army was all panicked, and it was difficult to confront the New Han Army with peace of mind.

After all, the New Han Army had already broken through this mountain, and it was possible to outflank and intercept their retreat at any time, forming a trend of encirclement, division and annihilation against them. And because of Xiahoudun's earlier order, they had an excuse to withdraw from the army.

Therefore, this time, the Cao army of the entire Northern Route Army really retreated on all fronts and withdrew to the areas of Zhongmu and Changshe respectively.

Regarding the retreat of the Cao army, the generals of the New Han Army also received the news that Yan Liang's military horses, with the support of their lord Liu Yi, quickly seized the dangerous passes in the area of Pishan, so they all knew it. Seeing that the Cao army retreated without a fight, they pressed forward step by step, directly connecting all the way down the pass of the Cao army, and the soldiers followed the Cao army to Zhongmu, Changshe and other places.

At this point, it can be said that Cao Cao's general trend has really gone, and he is really powerless to return to the sky.

The defensive lines around Chenliu, Zhongmu, and Changshe were no longer enough to stop the pace of the New Han army's attack on Xuchang.

The entire Xudu Imperial Court, the Jingshi was shaken.

However, it is also a bit strange to say that in the city of Xudu, although the ordinary people at the bottom, although they are also a little worried, but no one is panicked, it seems that they are still very calm about the siege of the New Han Army, and they do not express a deep hatred for the attack of the New Han Army. The people who are really panicked are only the middle and upper class people in Xu Capital City. Because they already have a lot of wealth, and their lives are very good, they don't know what their fate will be if they are killed by the New Han Army and captured Xudu City by the New Han Army, and they don't know if they can live so comfortably and richly as they are now.

Of course, more importantly, they were subject to Cao Cao, and how Cao Cao would treat or demand them in the face of the new Han army's troops, and the new Han army's large army was overwhelming.

Naturally, now Cao Cao, he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to these at all.

Instead, he was watching the battle on the northern front.

This was really an overnight thing, which made Cao Cao feel cold and puzzled. The northern front, which he had been operating for nearly ten years, was broken through by the New Han Army overnight after a stalemate with the New Han Army for so long?

He held the report of the love general Xiahoudun, and he really wanted to cry without tears, and naturally he couldn't believe it.

Of course, he was also very annoyed, Xiahoudun was his most optimistic subordinate general, and he actually lost the most important pass in the area of Bishan at once? Moreover, the whole army also retreated to Chenliu?

Cao Cao felt that he couldn't go on like this, the situation had reached the last moment, and he couldn't stay in Xudu anymore.

He decided that he would immediately lead reinforcements north to Chenliu, and he must block the advance of the New Han Army.

His order, having already been given, waited for the army to assemble and set off the next day.

However, that night, Xiahoudun looked panicked and returned to Xudu alone.

Seeing Xiahoudun, Cao Cao was angry and almost didn't order anyone to escort Xiahoudun down and behead him. He suddenly returned to Xudu, which was an unauthorized departure from his post and abandoning the front line.

However, when Xiahoudun learned that Cao Cao was about to personally march and would lead his army to Chenliu tomorrow, he knelt down in front of Cao Cao.

"My lord, don't do it in person. In the letter, didn't the last general already explain the reason for the defeat of our army? Please don't put yourself in danger. In the end, he rushed back regardless of this, because he was worried that the lord would not believe it, and he wanted to explain it to the lord himself. ”

"Don't believe me? This, this kind of nonsense, how can Cao believe it? Cao Cao said with a skeptical expression.

Indeed, in the letter sent back to Cao Cao, Xiahoudun had already explained the situation more clearly. However, Cao Cao didn't believe it and didn't care too much. Can the people of the New Han Army fly? What other new weapon can be thrown from the air to explode, to level their passes, and to kill and injure their soldiers in large numbers? These, for people who have not seen it with their own eyes, really seem to be a fantasy, not enough for Cao Cao to believe it. Therefore, Cao Cao was more concerned about the defeat of Xiahoudun and the danger of the entire northern defense line.

"Lord......" Xiahou was so anxious that he cried.

He told Cao Cao about the encounter at the Pi Gu Pass in 1510, and also reported to Cao Cao about his encounter with the cavalry of the New Han Army during the day.

"Lord, these are all things that the last general has seen and experienced with his own eyes, together, and tens of thousands of soldiers in the intestinal pass have also seen with their own eyes, and what the last general said is definitely not a lie." Xiahoudun felt a little palpitating when he thought about it, and knelt on the ground and said: "My lord, please imagine, now that the New Han Army can actually fly into the sky, and can have such a new weapon with great lethality, how will our Cao Army fight with the New Han Army?" Can we keep all our passes? What's the point of keeping it any longer? It was with this in mind that the last general returned to Xudu desperately and explained the reason to the lord. ”

"Is it really true? This Liu Yi really gives Prime Minister Ben a headache......" After Cao Cao listened to Xiahoudun's words, he couldn't help but stroke his forehead, and his expression was painful. (To be continued.) )
