"Why did Wen Ze say this?" Cao Ying asked unhurriedly or angrily.

In his knife-like face, the color of Congo surged, and Yu Ban replied calmly: "There are many thieves, and our army is outnumbered." The morale of the thief army is high, and the morale of our army is low. In the decisive battle, one wing of our army was blocked by the swamp, and we could not give full play to the advantage of cavalry, so we could only fight head-on with the thief army. With these three points, the general thought that our army had little chance of victory. In the end, he will say bluntly, and hope that the prime minister will forgive his sins. ”

After these words, Cao Ying laughed.

From that laughter, Yu Ban heard some clues, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "Prime Minister, could it be my words, the Prime Minister has already expected it, and he already has a plan in his heart to deal with it?" ”

The laughter stopped suddenly, and Cao Ying's deep-set eyes burst into murderous intentions, and sneered: "If it weren't for all the disadvantages, how could I induce Liu Feng to fight with me." ”

Yu Ban seemed to have an understanding, and his eyes couldn't help but light up: "Could it be that the prime minister wants to start from that swamp?" ”

Cao Ying said with a smile: "The terrain is dead, people are alive, although that swamp is not easy to use soldiers, but I have been to inspect, as long as you prepare more firewood and soil, and make some manpower, it is not difficult to fill in a road in the swamp." ”

Filling in the swamp seems to have the same reason as opening a road in the mountains and building bridges when encountering water.

Yu Ban's mind turned rapidly, and he suddenly realized what Cao Ying meant by what he said to him.

His expression was immediately solemn, and he said angrily: "Since the prime minister has this clever plan, the last general is willing to lead this strange army to cross the swamp and raid the thief army." ”

Cao Ying and Yu Ban said these words, and their intention was naturally to entrust him with important tasks.

In fact, in Cao Ying's mind, Yu Ban is not the kind of general who wins by surprise, if he has a choice, he would rather choose fierce generals such as Zhang Liao and Le Jin.

It's just that in the war for several years, the loss of good generals and soldiers is almost close, and looking around, there is only one person left who can handle this heavy task.

Cao Ying stood up, stroked Yu Ban's shoulder, and said with emotion: "Wen Ze, you have followed me since Dong, and for so many years, you have been my most reassuring general." At present, the foundation we have worked hard to create is already in danger, and the decisive battle after three days is even more related to the rise and fall. The key to victory or defeat is in your hands. ”

How many years have passed, and the last time I heard Cao Gong's heart-to-heart words, I don't know how many years ago.

At this moment, Yu Ban seemed to be able to feel his blood burning, and the burden of thousands of catties fell on his shoulders, making him feel not only a heavy weight, but also a kind of gradually rising strong fighting spirit.

For the sake of glory, for the sake of kindness, Yu Ban must fight.

Excited, Yu Ban clasped his fists and shouted: "Prime Minister rest assured, with me Yu Ban, the world of the Cao family will never be overturned." ”

Cao Ying was very satisfied and nodded heavily.

He continued: "In the first battle, I will hand over 7,000 cavalry to you, and you will lead the army to fill the swamp and attack the enemy's left flank by surprise. I expect that Liu Feng will put the Jiangdong soldiers who are not good at foot combat on the left flank, and you will be able to win with one blow. As long as the left flank is defeated, our army will take advantage of the situation to cover up and kill, and it will definitely be able to win a complete victory. ”

In this battle, Cao Ying gathered nearly 10,000 cavalry, and now handed over 7,000 cavalry to Yu Ban at once, which means that on the frontal battlefield, the number of cavalry of Liu Feng's army is even more than his own.

Cao Ying is going to make a desperate bet.

Yu Ban did not hesitate at all, and solemnly responded: "The last general will obey the order." ”

#######清晨, autumn is crisp and cloudless, and it is the time of the great war.

Before dawn, the smoke was curling in the camps, and the kitchen soldiers killed chickens and sheep, and put the best white rice into the pot.

For many soldiers, this is perhaps the most hearty breakfast of their lives.

Or, their last meal.

When the dawn came, the school field of the Chinese army camp was already crowded with people, and more than 6,000 soldiers in gear and ready to go stood quietly in the center of the school field.

The morning breeze blows the banners and battle robes, and the warriors hold all kinds of blades, not moving, one by one like iron towers.

The silent crowd suddenly became noisy, and with cheers full of support, the young commander rode a tall horse and slowly walked up to the school review stand.

His thick eyebrows pressed against a pair of eagle-like sharp eyes, and there was something in those eyes that seemed to be staring, but also as if contemplative, showing a fortitude and composure far beyond his years.

Today's Liu Feng is still wearing the eagle-patterned iron helmet, and the silver-gray forehead hangs softly on his shoulders.

He held the reins freely in one hand, and in the other he carried the huge silver spear upside down, with a large bow on his back, a sword at his waist, and a huge quiver on each side of the saddle.

"Banzai~~Banzai~~"

The soldiers were full of voices and cheers.

Their breathing grew heavier with excitement, and it was no wonder that for the first time in their lives, most of them had been inspected by this mighty god of war.

At this moment, they witnessed Liu Feng's might, and they couldn't help but have a strong excitement in their hearts, and they all sighed that it was really a great honor to be able to follow such a lord to dominate the world in this life.

Liu Feng raised his head and looked squarely at the school platform.

A ray of sunlight shot into his eyes, he lowered his head slightly, and saw that the swords and spears were like a forest, and the battle armor was dazzling.

At this moment, Liu Feng only felt that the pride in his chest was suddenly born, although he had experienced a hundred battles, the hands of the spear were still slightly soaked with sweat.

He seemed to be able to see that with a slight wave of his hand, his 100,000 soldiers were indomitable, crushing all the enemies who stood in their way.

The luck of the world is now called a war.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Feng waved the silver spear in his hand and shouted: "Fight!" ”

The sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, the sound of drums and bull's horns was like thunder, the flags of the whole camp were moving like waves, and the breathing of 100,000 soldiers seemed to gather in one place, and slowly drove out of the camp in the sound of metal tide of armor crashing.

Stretching for more than ten miles, in the large camps, a group of foot riders slowly came out, like the flow of a hundred rivers, converging towards the Lejia battlefield, and finally, in that wilderness, turned into a vast sea of ironclad forests.

At this time, the head has risen and the sky is clear.

Under the sky, a huge formation of 100,000 people against 80,000 people, nearly 200,000 people, formed a confrontation across a field hundreds of zhang wide.

Liu Feng raised his eyes and looked into the distance, only to see that in the Cao army array opposite, a knight holding an envoy flag rushed out, which should be a war messenger sent by Cao Ying.

The envoy came in a moment, came to the front of the southern army, and shouted: "My Prime Minister Cao Cheng ordered me to come and ask, does Liu Feng dare to fight?" ”

Obviously, it was agreed that the decisive battle was agreed, and Cao Ying sent someone to ask such a sentence in one more move, obviously wanting to boost his own morale with a provocative attitude.

looked left and right at Liu Feng, waiting for him to respond.

Liu Feng sneered, without saying a word, took off the big bow, bent the bow like the moon, and the arrow like a meteor.

I saw a cold light pass through the heads of the troops, and an arrow hit the forehead of the Cao family envoy, and with a pop, he fell off his horse.

The soldiers of the Southern Army immediately cheered and roared, as if their blood was ignited by the blood splashing of that star, and the rolling battle spirit rose fiercely.

This scene, Cao Ying in the formation saw it with his own eyes, and he was immediately furious.

It is not uncommon for the two armies to fight, and it is not uncommon for them to kill each other, but it is the first time that Cao Ying has encountered the matter of openly shooting the envoy in front of hundreds of thousands of soldiers like this.

Liu Feng's trick is scoundrel enough.

The more scoundrel is still to come, after Liu Feng shot and killed the enemy envoy, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he suddenly raised his voice and shouted: "Those who capture Cao Ying alive will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and ten thousand households will be sealed!" ”

Hundreds of pro-soldiers on the left and right understood, and immediately shouted in unison: "Those who capture Cao Ying alive will be rewarded with a thousand gold, and ten thousand households will be sealed!" ”

Hundreds of strong men roared in unison, and the sound was like muffled thunder, and they were heard all over the field.

With such incitement, in an instant, 100,000 soldiers shouted with a loud voice.

The roar of extreme provocation and contempt rumbled like the sky was cracking, and it was like thousands of wild beasts roaring, which only made the Cao army on the opposite side change color.

At this time, Cao Ying's face was pale, he could no longer tolerate this wanton mockery, the horse whip pointed forward, and shouted: "Attack!" ”

The Chinese army ordered the flag to wave, and dozens of big drums rumbled.

In the sound of cheering drums, more than a dozen phalanxes of 3,000 people of the front army roared and pushed towards the southern army.

Cao Jun has moved, how can Liu Feng lag behind.

With his order, hundreds of flags moved in the wind, Zhang Wei, Ma Zhong and other generals who commanded the army one by one conveyed their orders, and the generals and deputy generals at all levels followed the orders and commanded their subordinate armies with flags until they were conveyed to the lowest level.

Amid the roars and drums, the infantry phalanx composed of sword and shield men, spearmen, pikemen, crossbowmen, and all kinds of troops slowly advanced towards the enemy.

When they were more than 100 paces apart, the sound of 10,000 birds flapping their wings suddenly rose, and the sound of horns and drums was instantly drowned out by the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air.

Whoosh~~Whoosh~~ The crossbowmen on both sides launched a long-range arrow attack almost at the same time, and the rain of arrows like flying locusts was intertwined in the sky into a huge net covering the sky, and in the blink of an eye, it fell towards the opponent's position.

A terrible cry arose. Bows and arrows are constantly firing, endlessly harvesting human lives, blood overflowing, and converging into a river at the feet of the living.

The iron wall marched forward in a rain of arrows, and the bones of the fallen corpses were trampled on the ground, blood and water mixed with flesh, and they were stepped deep into the dirt, and in a short time, the yellow and dusty fields were dyed into a huge red carpet.

Everyone's hearts were deeply shocked by such a tragedy, but these elite athletes, with their strong will, forcibly suppressed the terror in their hearts and bravely marched forward in the rain of arrows.

A moment later, two miles of copper walls collided violently.

The place where the two armies were engaged, like a meat grinder, instantly rolled up countless flying limbs and broken bones.
