Chapter 271: Invincible

It's a feeling of great depression, not just depressed, but my heart is bleeding.

Who would have thought that the menacing cavalry of the New Han Army, they charged all the way from a distance, but they would suddenly stop before the military formation that their Cao army had just arranged, and they didn't rush over directly to engage them with short arms, just greeted them with bows and arrows?

Cao Ren looked at his sergeant, and fell to the ground screaming one by one, falling in a pool of blood, and his heart was dripping blood. However, in this moment and a half, he did not have the slightest way to change the situation of this passive beating.

You must know that Cao Ren's Eight Gates Golden Lock Array is a camp specially designed to deal with enemy troops rushing into his military formation. This one is somewhat similar to the trap camp. In addition, when the enemy is superior to his own in the battle of a large army, if the enemy army rushes into his camp, his army can strangle the enemy who rushes into the battle.

Now, the cavalry of the New Han Army did not give him a chance to engage in hand-to-hand combat at all, but his camp was conducive to attacking. What's more, at this moment, if he ordered his military horses to charge at the cavalry of the New Han Army, it would be a certain death. And to retreat? When they were attacked by the cavalry of the New Han Army, could they still retreat?

Therefore, at this moment, Cao Ren really regrets it very much, and regrets the wrong decision he made at a critical time.

This, strictly speaking, can't be blamed entirely on Cao Ren. This, if it were replaced by another Cao Jiang here, I am afraid that he would also make such a mistake.

Because, Cao Cao in this life. In fact, his territory of influence has always been in the Central Plains. This made Cao Cao's army all the time, lacking an experience in fighting pure cavalry. Especially. They lack an intuitive insight and understanding of the cavalry combat methods of aliens.

Speaking of which, Cao Cao's army and the cavalry army's combat experience seem to be really insufficient. Previously, Cao Cao's army fought against the Yellow Turban Army, especially against the Qingzhou Yellow Turban Army. At that time, among the Yellow Turban Army, how could it become a formed cavalry army? Afterward. fought with Tao Qian, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu and other forces, and did not encounter a real large-scale cavalry. When they were at war with the princes such as LΓΌ Bu, Zhang Xiu, and Yuan Shao, these princes had formed a cavalry army. But. But he never used pure cavalry horses to fight them head-on.

Therefore, now, in the face of the cavalry of the New Han Army, especially the cavalry from outside the Saiwai race, Cao Cao's army is at a loss to follow the combat method of the New Han Army cavalry.

You must know that in the minds of ordinary soldiers, the impression of the cavalry is a matter of great impact. Whenever I think of the cavalry, I think of the indestructibility of the impact of the cavalry. But. Who would have thought that the cavalry of the New Han Army, killing all the way, did not directly impact their battle formation as they imagined, but only used bows and arrows to strike at them at a distance?

Especially when the vanguard of the Cao army was not well prepared, in this way, under the cavalry of the New Han army, their casualties were quite heavy.

"Withdraw! Our cavalry opened the way, the infantry army followed behind it, retreated, and no matter how late, it would be surrounded by the cavalry of the New Han Army, and it would be impossible to escape if you wanted to! ”

In comparison, Zhang He was more familiar with the combat methods of cavalry than Cao Ren, after all, he led the cavalry for Yuan Shao before he surrendered to Cao Cao. He also fought with the cavalry of the New Han Army for a time, and now the cavalry attack methods of the New Han Army are the same as when he was in Yuan Shao's camp, when they attacked Gongsun Zhan, Zhao Yun led a cavalry army, and it was with such combat methods and means that they Yuan Army complained bitterly. Zhao Yun couldn't help Zhao Yun at all, and in the end, it was Zhao Yun who pinned them down in their rear, so that they could not attack Gongsun Chan with all their strength, so that Yuan Shao's plan to seize the entire Youzhou failed, and he had to stop fighting and could not destroy Gongsun Zhan.

Zhang Hefang was worried that he would be attacked by the cavalry of the New Han Army that he had encountered in Yuan Shao's army before, so he thought of it as soon as possible and tried his best to retreat. It's a pity that he was robbed of white by Cao Ren, and Zhang He couldn't lose Cao Ren's face in front of the army. Moreover, in terms of time, it was too late for him to tell Cao Ren about his power.

Now, how worried Zhang He's heart is how it happened, he knew that if Cao Ren didn't take the opportunity to make a decision and ordered the Cao army soldiers to retreat, then their 100,000 Cao troops would really seem to be standing here as rakes of the cavalry of the New Han Army, and they would be shot to the ground one by one.

"Withdraw!"

Cao Ren's eyes were red, he bit his lips, snorted hoarsely, and according to Zhang He's opinion, he immediately let the cavalry retreat first.

However, at this time, it was really not easy for Cao Jun to withdraw.

Even the cavalry of the Cao army, they are now outflanked and surrounded by the cavalry of the New Han Army.

Moreover, when the camp of Cao's 100,000 military horses withdrew one after another after the cavalry, its formation of horses became chaotic. As a result, the cavalry of the New Han Army, which charged behind, no longer distanced themselves from them to release arrows, but directly rushed into the Cao army's military formation under the leadership of several generals of the New Han Army.

In the face of the cavalry charge of the New Han Army, no matter how strong the Cao Army was, it could not be the enemy of the cavalry of the New Han Army. The soldiers of the Cao army, they are like wheat that has been harvested, and as soon as the cavalry of the New Han Army enters the military array where they have retreated, they are like bamboos, and they are killed on their backs.

In this battle, the New Han Army did have the advantage, and the Cao Army had no power to fight back at all.

This battle was much easier to fight than the battle when the New Han army ambushed Cao's army when Xiangcheng went to Lushan County. Because, in this battle, the strength of the Xinhan army was one or two times more than that of the Cao army, and it was the cavalry that rushed to kill, so it failed to give the Cao army any strength to fight back.

In the end, of this 100,000 Cao army, only a small part of the cavalry led by Cao Ren and Zhang He broke through and fled back to the tiger prison, and the rest of the infantry was almost annihilated by the New Han army. Of course, seeing that the general trend was gone, Cao's army had to surrender and was captured by the New Han army.

However, these 100,000 horses are not the main target of Xun Wenruo and others.

Originally, it was planned to ambush Cao Cao's 300,000 troops at one time, but Cao Cao temporarily listened to the advice of Xun You and Cheng Yu and only sent 100,000 horses. In this way, the New Han army also had to attack it. Because, Xun Yu really didn't dare to let Cao's army enter the area of the New Han Dynasty to cause chaos, so as not to shake the foundation of the entire New Han Dynasty.

Therefore, the 200,000 or 300,000 cavalry of the New Han Army, after solving the 100,000 cavalry, did not stop, but continued to follow Cao Ren and Zhang He, a small part of the Cao cavalry who broke through and fled, all the way to chase and kill.

Tiger Prison Pass, the New Han Army must be recaptured. (To be continued......)
