Chapter 424: Thank you, Lord Wei

A few hundred steps away, Cao Ying under the yellow umbrella cover was also sighing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Although in the vast sea of people opposite, Cao Ying couldn't see Fang Shao's existence at all, he could deeply feel the existence of that old enemy.
Now, Cao Ying can see clearly that he once disdained it, and the enemy from the scholar's family turned out to be so terrifying.
The Battle of Chibi, the Battle of Longxi, the Battle of Guanzhong, the Battle of Pingyang, and the Battle of Yecheng...... In the battles that made the Great Wei State go from strength to decline, there was this person, the invisible pair of hands that secretly controlled the overall situation.
It's just that now that shadow has come to the foreground, and he wants to fight to the death with himself face to face.
This is the time for revenge, Fang Shao, Fang Shao, if I don't take your head in this battle, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in my heart!
"Attack!"
The sword was unsheathed and slashed forward, and Cao Ying's old body roared loudly with all his might.
The banner spread out like a wave, and then, the various army formations burst out in the deafening drum beat, and slowly advanced forward towards the Han army formation on the opposite side.
In the Chinese army, Cao Yingzai is also moving forward slowly, and Jia Xu next to him is still calm, as if he is just watching a bad movie that can't lift his spirits.
Suddenly, the eyes that narrowed into a slit widened a lot, and he pointed ahead and said, "Your Majesty, there seems to be something strange in the Han army's formation. ”
Cao Ying looked into the distance, but saw smoke curling in the Han army's array, obviously a fire was burning.
"There is a fire color, could it be that the person surnamed Fang wants to use a rocket?" Cao Ying frowned.
Jia Xu shook his head: "It shouldn't be, in this kind of weather, the rocket will be extinguished by the wind in mid-air, it is useless at all, what kind of trick does that Fang Shao want to play?" ”
Even if it was Jia Xu, he couldn't think through it for a while. Cao Ying snorted coldly: "On the plain, he has real strength, even if he wants to play tricks, it won't help." ”
Under Cao Ying's disdain, the sound of war drums became more urgent, and the advance speed of the army accelerated.
On the opposite side, the Han army did not move, but maintained a defensive position against the enemy.
In the Central Army, Fang Shao rode a white horse, watching the Wei army move slowly from afar, and the pride in his heart grew.
In front of his eyes, more than 1,000 water cannons have already been erected, and each water cannon is equipped with a pot of boiling hot water next to it.
Fang Shao was also worried at the beginning that such a trace would cause Cao Ying to be alert, but now it seems that Cao Ying has no signs of seeing through it at all, which makes his hanging heart begin to fall.
A moment later, amid the roaring beat of drums, the Wei advance had already crossed two hundred paces from the Han formation. In order to attract the enemy to continue to approach, Fang Shao ordered the first round of long-range strikes with a strong crossbow in accordance with the normal combat mode.
With the order issued, thousands of hard crossbows in the Han army responded to the sound, and at the same time, the Wei army also launched a crossbow attack on the advancing Wei army. In the blink of an eye, only the sound of thousands of birds chirping in unison could be heard, and in the air, arrows were like flying locusts, intertwined into a large net covering the sky and the earth. Then, in the midst of the two armies, the sound of the rain hitting the eaves and the howl of the struck by the arrow rose at the same time.
After a few rounds of crossbow arrows, both sides were killed and wounded, and the faster the Wei army advanced, the sooner it entered the range of bows and arrows, so the two sides fired each other with bows and arrows, but it was obvious that both armies had already prepared and made strict precautions, so under the long-range strikes of these two rounds of bows and crossbows, there were not too many dead and wounded.
Soon, the Wei army was approaching more than seventy, and their steps were faster, but at the front they formed an iron wall with huge iron shields, in order to prevent the lightning storm attack of the Han army's Zhuge Flying Crossbow at close range.
Obviously, Cao Ying has figured out the path of the Han army this time and made full preparations.
However, after all, he still didn't calculate Fang Shao's new plan.
Seeing that the enemy had entered the range of the water cannon, Fang Shao took a deep breath and gave the order to prepare.
The soldiers responded to the call, first filling the barrels with boiling water, and then quickly pouring them into the wooden chambers of the water cannons, and in less than a minute of preparation, more than a thousand water cannons were filled.
"Squirt!"
The order flag of the Central Military Department shook again, and then, in an instant, more than a thousand water cannons were fired in unison, and countless hot waters, like white dragons, rose from the ground, rushed into the air, and poured towards the terrified Wei army.
The north wind of hunting, the extremely cold temperature, under the pressure of two factors, the water was still cold in mid-air, and then, tens of thousands of Wei soldiers felt the cold and biting taste, and in just a moment, everyone turned into chickens in the soup.
The cold was only the initial torture, and before they had time to taste the pain of their bones, the water had turned into ice, and the armor and weapons in their hands were frozen together with their skin. Seeing this, Wei was shocked, and hurriedly tried to peel off the ice chips on his body, but the ice chips that had been stained with the skin were peeled off with a little force, and the exposed flesh and blood were invaded and frozen by the water that poured down later, which was even more painful.
In just a moment, the Wei army, which was originally high-spirited, became chaotic, the howl replaced the bloody shouting of killing, and the turn and fled instead of the forward.
The rout, in a split second.
However, this was not the end, the endless spraying of the Han army's water cannons, under the impact of the huge amount of water, most of the panicked Wei army, they did not have time to escape from the range of the jet, they were all frozen, unable to move again.
Cao Ying of the Chinese army was lucky and unlucky.
Fortunately, he escaped the misery of being frozen into an ice sculpture, but unfortunately he was stunned, and witnessed the little money he had left, and he had not yet fought the enemy, so he was inexplicably destroyed.
"Fang Shao, Fang Shao......" Cao Ying muttered Fang Shao's name over and over again, with extreme resentment in his tone, and a helplessness that could not be done.
After several rounds of water strikes completely defeated the Wei army, the water strikes stopped, and the Han army turned from defense to attack, and in the earth-shaking shouts of killing, the Han army killed like a tide, and the first was the five thousand iron cavalry led by Jiang Wei.
The Han army easily tore through the "frozen" defense line of the Wei army, and the Wei army, which was frozen and unable to move, could only be slaughtered by the Han army.
At this moment, Cao Ying had no power to return to the sky, and could only flee south in a hurry mixed with the defeated army, and behind him, the dust and mist of snow and earth rolled up as quickly as a sandstorm, which was the iron cavalry of the Han army approaching, and the sandstorm passed, and the fleeing Wei pawns were all crushed.
The soldiers around him gradually withered, and under the blow of defeat, Cao Ying's body and mind were already extremely weak, seeing the Han army behind him getting closer and closer, he knew that this time he was completely lost, and if he fled, he would only die in humiliation in the chaos like the rest of the soldiers.
So he stopped, turned over and dismounted, straightened his clothes, and sat down facing the north on the ground, his eyes slightly closed, waiting for the enemy to approach.
At such a moment when the edifice was about to collapse, no one cared about the emperor's life and death, and when Cao Ying chose to stay, no one even tried to dissuade him, and the panicked Wei soldiers just passed by his side and fled south desperately.
A few minutes later, the Han army's iron cavalry arrived, and after slaughtering those unfortunate Wei pawns along the way, they were blocked by Cao Ying, who was sitting on the ground.
Most of the Han soldiers did not know Cao Ying's face, but such a person who sat on the ground and was not afraid at all naturally made them a little afraid and curious, and the smart people may have guessed the identity of this person, so hundreds of people surrounded him, but no one dared to step forward.
After a while, the group made way for the group, and Jiang Wei drove the horse into the field with a blood-stained silver spear, and the steaming warm blood was still dripping from the blade, but as soon as the blood landed, it quickly froze into ice.
There was no curiosity or fear on Jiang Wei's face, only the excitement after the killing, and his bloodshot eyes swept over the person sitting on the ground, and suddenly burst out with irrepressible surprise and excitement.
"You, that's Cao Ying, right?" He asked tentatively with joy.
Cao Ying finally opened his eyes, looked at the young Han general in front of him, and asked disapprenously: "Where is Fang Shao, I want to see him." ”
If you can say such a thing, it seems that it must be Cao Ying.
The emperor of Wei was captured alive, a generation of heroes Cao Ying, this is destined to be a miracle in the annals of history, Jiang Wei at this moment, the incomparably glorious picture has appeared in front of him.
No matter how great you used to be, now you are just a prisoner of my Jiang Wei, I really don't know what to do.
Jiang Wei put away the ecstasy and sneered: "My family's eldest Sima is not free to see you now, come, escort this person back to the camp." ”
Jiang Wei turned his horse back, ignoring Cao Ying, who was pale-faced behind him, and looked up at the north, where the battle was still continuing.
Not all Wei troops were vulnerable, and at the moment of collapse, the more than 10,000 soldiers and horses commanded by Yu Ban were still making the last resistance. However, the more than 10,000 remnants of the army were not in Jiang Wei's eyes, and his target was only Cao Ying's alone, so he led the army to pass by, and the infantry army that followed after the ban was confined.
At this time, when Cao Ying was captured, the soldiers and horses under Yu Ban had been killed, and there were less than 1,000 remnants around, and they were besieged by more than 20,000 Han infantry troops.
When he stained his robe with blood and cut down the Han army that rushed up, not far away, a young Han general was also fighting bloodily, breaking away from the enemy group and coming towards the forbidden killing.
That Han will be Deng Ai.
When he broke the enemy first, the huge credit of capturing and killing Cao Ying was arranged by Fang Shao to Jiang Wei, and Deng Ai naturally held his breath in his heart. And when he used the killing to dissipate the anger in his heart, he suddenly discovered the general of the enemy army.
"This person seems to be a general, since the first merit has nothing to do with me, let's kill this person and get some credit." ’
The killing intent was down, Deng Ai galloped wildly, and a bloody spear, like a red lightning, went straight to the forbidden door.
