"Instigation......

Another canopy of arrows rained down from the arrow tower, and more than a dozen Cao soldiers who had just thrown away the sack fell down one after another before they had time to turn around, this time, no soldier could return to the city alive, so far, Zhang Liao's 8,000 elite soldiers have been killed and wounded, except for more than 3,000 wounded soldiers lying in the city who are unable to move, the rest have all been killed!

Even in troubled times, not everyone has the courage to die calmly, but the Cao army in Xuchang City has been forced into a desperate situation by the Liang army, and they have no way to escape! As Zhang He said, breaking through is death, not breaking through or dying, both left and right are dead, it's not a desperate fight, or you can still fight a bloody way.

It was driven by this thought that Cao's army followed one after another, even if it died, until the 8,000 elite soldiers were killed and wounded!

Zhang Liao's 8,000 soldiers told the follow-up Cao Jun with their own blood and lives that people can lose their lives, but they can't lose hope!

"Boom!"

Jiang Qi's double swords struck each other with a thunderous sound, which instantly attracted the attention of the five thousand heavy armored infantry under his command, and met the sad gaze of the five thousand soldiers, Jiang Qi pointed his hands forward, pointed to the corpse of Cao Jun lying all over the ground, and shouted hoarsely: "See it, General Zhang Liao's eight thousand elites have been killed and wounded!" Although they failed to fill the trenches of the Liang army, they are worthy of men, they are real soldiers! Right now...... It's our turn! ”

The north wind was howling, and there was silence outside the south gate of Xuchang, and only the heavy panting of the five thousand soldiers could be heard clearly.

Jiang Qi's eyes swept over the faces of all the soldiers, and he asked sharply, "Sons and daughters of Qinghe County, are you afraid?" ”

"Don't be afraid!"

"Don't be afraid!"

"Don't be afraid!"

Five thousand heavy armor responded with a bang.

At the head of Xuchang City, Cao Ying breathed a sigh of relief gently, his originally clenched fists suddenly loosened, and the military heart of the Jizhou army was finally miraculously condensed by him.

Downstairs in the city, Jiang Qi raised his knife and shouted: "Yes, we are not afraid!" Our sons and daughters of Qinghe County don't have a bad breed! The Liang army outside the city surrounded Xuchang City to death, and even a mouse couldn't run out, we had no way to live, and we had no choice but to fight to the death with the Liangzhou army! ”

"Fight!"

"Fuck it!"

"Yes, fight with them!"

"The damn Liangzhou soldiers have cut off Lao Tzu's way of life, and Lao Tzu will have to pull a few cushions even if he dies!"

The originally silent Five Thousand Heavy Armor Array suddenly boiled like boiling water, Jiang Qi took the opportunity to pull the double knives in his hand forward, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

"Kill, kill, kill!"

Five thousand Jizhou heavy armor shouted frantically, following Jiang Qi and swept towards the outside of the city.

……

Outside Xuchang City, the Liang army camp.

Seeing Huang Cancan's Jizhou heavy armor (as explained above, the Hebei soldiers are wearing bronze armor) rolling forward like a huge wave of the long river, Gao Shun's face gradually floated a faint sense of slaughter, is the battle of the breakthrough finally about to begin? It's time for Cao Jun to lead the Liangzhou Army's real soldiers.

"Archers, go up to the wall."

"Spearman, start forming formation."

"White bales, cart formations, and ballista formations are ready."

Under Gao Shunsheng's order, the Liangzhou army began to prepare nervously.

……

Outside the city of Xuchang.

The Jizhou heavy armor rolling forward had rushed to the front of the trench, Jiang Qi gave an order, thousands of shields were heavily pillared on the ground, and more than a dozen solid shield walls were built in an instant, and the sound of Cao Jun's drums became more and more excited, and the Cao army light armored infantry who had been waiting for a long time carried hundreds of low ladders prepared in advance and rushed over with shouts.

Cao's light soldiers carried a low ladder over the shield array of heavy soldiers and rushed to the inner edge of the ditch, stretched the ladders to the bottom of the ditch, and then began to go down the ditch to clear the antlers at the bottom of the ditch.

At this time, the arrows on the wall of the Liangjun village rained down, and the light soldiers of the Cao army who had just gone down to the bottom of the ditch had not had time to start cleaning up the antlers, and they fell to the ground with arrows, but the Cao army did not give up, the first batch of light soldiers fell, and the second group of light soldiers quickly rushed up, going forward and successively, endlessly, less than a meal, the Cao army light soldiers killed more than 2,000 people, but the sharp antlers at the bottom of the ditch were finally cleared out of a distance of twenty zhang wide.

Cao's light troops cleared the way for the heavy attack with their lives and blood.

Jiang Qi had been waiting for the fire in his heart on the edge of the ditch, and at this time, seeing that the light soldiers had finally cleared a bloody path, he couldn't hold back his long body and got up, and at the same time led the double knives in his hands forward, and shouted: "Kill!" ”

In the tidal shout, the first row of five hundred heavy soldiers had already slid down the ladder to the bottom of the ditch, Jiang Qi gave an order, and hundreds of hooks were thrown onto the wall of the Liang army at the same time, just at this time, hundreds of Liang saber and shield soldiers suddenly appeared behind the wall, and between the flickering of the cold light, hundreds of hooks had been cut alive.

The next moment, bundles of white grass have been thrown down from the wall, and in less than a moment they are piled up at the bottom of the ditch, and the air is suddenly filled with the smell of fire oil, Jiang Qi sniffed and sniffed his nose vigorously, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he shouted towards the bottom of the ditch: "Quickly withdraw, withdraw up!" ”

However, it was already too late.

Jiang Qi's words fell, a row of rockets had been saved down on the wall, and the white grass that had been poured with fire oil in advance was immediately burned by the rockets, and the diffuse fire completely swallowed the five hundred Cao army heavy armor at the bottom of the ditch in an instant, seeing his own troops wailing, running, struggling, and convulsing in the flames, Jiang Qi's eyes suddenly turned red, and he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly up the wall of the Liang army to kill the Liang soldiers guarding it, so as to vent the hatred in his heart.

The first wave of the Cao army's offensive was easily defused in this way, and only a few dozen of the five hundred Cao army's heavy armor survived.

Although the Cao army suffered heavy casualties, but the attack had to continue, Jiang Qi gave an order, and the second row of five hundred heavy armor went down the ladder, stepping on the charred corpses of their companions to continue the attack, this time the wall fell no longer white grass, but rows of sharp throwing guns, no matter how strong the shield is, it is difficult to resist the penetration of the throwing guns, and the Cao army is defeated again.

In less than half an hour, Cao's army had lost more than 3,000 light soldiers and nearly 2,000 heavy armored infantry, but not even a single wooden fence of the Liang army had not been injured.

Apart from clearing a trench, Cao's army did not even achieve any noteworthy results.

……

Xuchang city head.

Cao Ying Huo Ran raised his hand and said, "Order, suspend the attack!" ”

Cao Xiu hurriedly turned around and shouted: "The lord has an order, suspend the attack!" ”

"Woo woo~~"

Cao Xiu gave an order, and the distant and desolate horn sound rushed into the sky in an instant.

"It's not going to work like this." Cao Ying frowned and said, "The archers must be pressed up!" ”

"My lord." Xun Yu hurriedly said, "Isn't it too risky to let the archers press on it?" ”

"Yes, my lord." Cheng Yu also persuaded, "If our archers want to suppress the Liangzhou defenders on the wall, they must shoot directly within fifty steps of the wall, but such a close distance is very dangerous for the archers, in case the horse butcher secretly gathers a large number of archers for intensive shooting, our archers will definitely suffer heavy casualties, and the gains outweigh the losses!" ”

"I can't care so much!" Cao Ying said coldly, "Order, all the archers press on and cover the attack of the heavy infantry." ”

Cao Ying really can't manage so much, and the top priority is to break through.

can only break out of the encirclement, even if all 10,000 archers are killed?

As long as you can break out of the encirclement, it's easy to say anything, there will be soldiers, there will be, there will be grain and grass, and there will be a place for him in the world, but if you can't break out, then what's the use of leaving more archers? In the end, didn't all of them become prisoners of the Liangzhou army?

Cao Xiu Huo Ran turned around, raised the command flag in his hand and shouted: "The lord has an order, the archers ~~ attack!" ”

……

Outside the city of Xuchang, the Liang military camp.

Li Su was estimating the number of archers in Cao's army.

"Two thousand, three thousand...... Eight thousand, ten thousand! God, a whole 10,000 archers! Li Su shouted, "What do you want to do?" Do you want the archers to suppress the defenders on the walls of our army? ”

Gao Shun's eyes flashed with a trace of inexplicable solemnity, and said: "A full 10,000 archers lined up to shoot directly, can indeed suppress the defenders on the wall of our army, in front of such a number of archers, the defenders on the wall in front of the wall are afraid that they have been shot into hedgehogs as soon as they show their heads, how can they resist the attack of the Cao army's heavy armor from the bottom of the ditch?" ”

Li Su said: "But Cao Ying is not afraid that his 10,000 archers will be wiped out?" A whole 10,000 archers are lined up in such a dense firing formation, and the distance is so close, it is simply a target for our archers! Our army only needs to mobilize 2,000 archers and conduct ten rounds of salvos, which can make most of the 10,000 archers of the Cao army suffer casualties! ”

Gao Shun said: "But Ziyan has not thought about it, even if our army archers can shoot all the 10,000 Cao army archers?" At this time, the heavy armor of the Cao army at the bottom of the ditch had already pulled down the wall of the village and entered the village of our army! Once a gap is torn apart in the complete camp defense system, the follow-up infantry of the Cao army will continue to rush in along the gap, and even the cavalry of the Cao army may take advantage of the situation to kill in, at this time the advantage of the Cao army in strength will be reflected, and our army will be defeated undefeated. ”

Li Su said awe-inspiringly: "I see. ”

Gao Shun said indifferently: "But all this has long been expected by the lord and the military division, our army has already made corresponding arrangements, and this arrangement will definitely be unexpected by Cao Ying, if Cao Ying really intends to do this, then he can only kill himself!" ”

While the two were talking, the subordinate general suddenly ran up and said, "General, the archers of the Cao army are about to enter the firing range. ”

Gao Shun said: "General Jutu, let most of the archers and foot soldiers on the walled wall be withdrawn, leaving only a small number of soldiers to attract the attention of Cao's army, and then gather all the archers behind the wall." ”

Ju said suddenly: "The last general will take the order." ”

Soon, Cao's archers approached within fifty paces of the wall.

Nearly 10,000 archers began to shoot arrows at the wall and arrow tower of the Liang army, and the sharp wolf tooth arrows roared from the wall and the arrow tower in a straight line, and it happened that Gao Shun ordered the archers of the Liang army and the wall of the Liang army to retreat, although the Liang soldiers bent down to dodge, there were still unlucky soldiers who were injured by arrows, and then fell down from the wall with a scream.

This scene looked very much like fleeing for fear of the death of the Cao army's bow and arrow array, and the heavy armor of the Cao army, who was guarding the edge of the ditch and preparing to attack, suddenly burst into cheers like a landslide and the ground cracked, and the morale soared.

"Hahaha, these damn Liangzhou coyotes also have this time." Jiang Qi looked up to the sky and laughed three times, and then raised his arms and shouted, "Attack!" ”

This time, Jiang Qi did not stay in the ditch again, but directly led a thousand heavy armor to rush down the trench, and hundreds of hooks were thrown upward, firmly lassoating the sharp wooden stake at the top of the Liangjun wall, neat and loud trumpet, thousands of heavy armor began to pull back like an ox cart, and the combined force of thousands of soldiers instantly formed a terrifying force, and the wall that penetrated deep into the ground began to crunch and struggle, and then slowly tilted to the outside.

Cao Jun's arrows rained down, and the Liang army guards on the wall of the Liang army were so pressed that they couldn't raise their heads at all.

Xuchang city head.

The generals behind Cao Ying saw that it was going well, and couldn't help but let out bursts of cheers, only Cao Ying and Xun You and other henchmen looked solemn, it turned out that Cao Ying and the others were not superfluous, the Cao army archers only shot two arrows, and suddenly swept up from the Liang army village A canopy of dense arrows like rain swept through the air, like locusts, and then accurately fell towards the dense archer array of the Cao army, and the tragic howl rushed into the sky in an instant, and the Cao army archers who were holding their bows and arrows had fallen a large piece.

What Xun You and the others were most worried about still happened, and the Liang army really concentrated the archers to shoot the Cao army's archers first.

If Cao Ying ordered the archers to retreat at this time, at least the main force of the archers could be retained, but Cao Ying never blinked his eyes, as if the archers who were struggling and wailing in a pool of blood in front of the two armies were not his Cao Ying's soldiers at all, Cao Ying just turned back to Cao Xiu indifferently and shouted: "Wen Lie, pass the order Lu Qian, the whole army is not allowed to retreat, and those who violate the order ~~ will be decided!" ”

"Order!"

Cao Xiu agreed, and quickly ordered his soldiers to raise the order flag to signal to Lu Qian in front of the formation, Lu Qian saw it from a distance, a trace of pathos flashed in his eyes, and suddenly he turned around with a long howl and pulled away the three-stone strong bow, and fastened a wolf's tooth arrow on the string, and shot it at the Liangjun arrow tower where there were still soldiers stationed on the right.

A moment later, Lü Qian heard a scream from afar, and two Liang archers fell from the arrow tower, and they were pierced through the body by the sharp antlers that filled the bottom of the trench, and died on the spot.

Lu Qian could vent his anger and hatred on the Liang soldiers who were outside the range of ordinary bows and arrows, but the Cao army archers behind him didn't have this ability, they could only tragically release arrows at the already empty wall and arrow tower in front of them, and then they were shot to the ground by a rain of arrows from the Liang army camp.

This is a complete massacre, a naked massacre, the archers of the Liang Army can unscrupulously pour a rain of arrows on the heads of the Cao Army's bow array, but the Cao Army archers can't fight back in the same way! Because they received the military order to suppress the Liang army on the front wall and the arrows to cover the attack of the heavy infantry, not to shoot at the Liang army archers!

However, the suicidal suppression of the archers of the Cao army was not without a price, and when more than half of the nearly 10,000 archers were killed or wounded, the generals of the Cao army at the head of Xuchang City in the distance were waiting to suffocate, only to hear a loud noise, and the wall of the Liang army that was connected as a whole had collapsed from the middle, and a section of the wall nearly twenty zhang wide was pulled down alive and planted heavily into the trench under his feet.

The sharpened wooden stake at the top of the walled wall stabbed dozens of Cao Jun's heavy armor who had no time to dodge to death on the spot in an instant, but the dozens of Liang soldiers who fell down with the walled wall were also dismembered by the angry Cao Jun's foot soldiers in an instant!

As soon as the wall fell, the archers of the Liang Army who were hiding behind them and holding their bows and arrows were suddenly exposed, Lu Qian finally waited for this opportunity for revenge, and was about to give the order to release the arrows to fight back, but the Liang Army archers on the opposite side quickly retreated to the two wings, and disappeared from Cao Jun's field of vision in less than a moment! Lu Qian looked around and found that behind the walled wall was a large flat land, which was empty, and there was nothing, only the dense Liang military camp tents on both sides of the gap and hundreds of steps away!

Dozens of low ladders were quickly erected to the gap, and Jiang Qi stuck two knives and feet on his back and climbed the gap with the first one.

As far as the eye could see, thousands of Liang Army archers retreated in panic like the tide of the ebb tide towards the Liang Army camp on both sides of the gap, Jiang Qi pulled out two knives from behind his back, slashed hard in the chest, and laughed fiercely: "Liangzhou coyotes who should kill a thousand knives, this time you are considered to run fast, hum!" ”

After that, Jiang Qi turned around and drew the knife, looked up to the sky and shouted: "Sons and daughters of Qinghe County, go on!" ”

"Kill, kill, kill~~"

Thousands of Cao Jun's heavy armor responded violently, and quickly rushed up the gap along the low ladder.

Outside the south gate of Xuchang, seeing that Jiang Qi had successfully torn a gap in the wall of the Liangjun Village, Han Meng also led another 5,000 heavy armored infantry to cover up!

Jiang Qi and Han Meng each have their own division of labor, Jiang Qi's task is to tear a gap in the wall of the Liang army, and Han Meng's task is to expand this gap, and then nail it to the gap like a nail, so as to win time for the follow-up Cao army to fill the trench and space to break through in formation.

……

Xuchang city head.

Cao Xiu said excitedly to Cao Ying: "The lord (called the lord in front of the people, and uncles in the future), General Jiang Qi has broken through the wall of the Liang army!" ”

"Hmm."

Cao Ying nodded lightly, but there was no trace of joy on his face, and there was even a faint haze in his eyes.

Although with the suppression of Cao Jun's archers, the resistance of the Liang army will become difficult, but it will not be completely powerless, Jiang Qi's success is far easier than Cao Ying expected, Cao Ying originally thought that if he wanted to tear through the wall of the Liang army, Jiang Qi's five thousand heavy armor would be left even if he could succeed.

But now, Jiang Qi not only tore a gap as wide as 20 zhang, but also only killed and injured 2,000 soldiers, which was unusually smooth and could not help but worry Cao Ying.

Obviously, the Liang army did not do their best, they seemed to be deliberately indulging Jiang Qi to tear through the wall.

"My lord." Xun You quietly leaned over and said to Cao Ying, "Liang Jun's behavior is a little abnormal. ”

Cheng Yu took Xun You's words and said, "Is this a trap?" ”

"Even if we know it's a trap, our army has to jump in the heart." Xun Yu said in a heavy tone, "The so-called opening the bow has no turning back, since the battle of the breakthrough has begun, it is impossible to stop halfway, otherwise the morale of the officers and men of the three armies will be discharged, and it will be even more impossible to break through again!" Now our army can only make a heart, and fight with the Liang army to the end! ”

"Well, the so-called narrow road meets the brave wins, now it's up to who can survive to the end!" Cao Ying nodded and said to Cao Xiu, "Wen Lie, immediately order Jiang Qi and Han Meng to set up a position in the open space opposite the trench, no matter how fierce the Xiliang Iron Cavalry is, no matter how big the casualties are, they must be nailed to the spot like a nail, and they are never allowed to take half a step back!" Let Lu Qian lead the remaining archers to all press on, and assist the heavy infantry to resist the counterattack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry! Then let the light soldiers of the Tibetan tyrant speed up to fill the trench and level out the passage of Zhang He's cavalry to break through, as long as Zhang He's cavalry team can pass, the breakthrough will be half successful! ”

[Cao Ying's 5,000 old troops have all been killed, and nearly 50,000 Jizhou troops have been deployed: Zhang He's 5,000 cavalry, Jiang Qi and Han Meng each led 5,000 heavy armored infantry, Lu Qian led 10,000 archers, Yin Li, Sun Guan, and Song Xian each led 5,000 light soldiers to feint at the north, east, and west gates, and finally the 8,000 light soldiers led by Zangba, who had suffered more than 2,000 casualties in order to clean up the antlers in the trenches. ]

After saying this, Cao Ying continued: "Then order Yin Li, Sun Guan, and Song Xian to give up the feints of the three gates, and immediately rush to the south gate to converge." ”

"Yes."

Cao Xiu received the order and left in a hurry.

……

After the initial panic and helplessness, the Liang army finally began to counterattack.

In the sound of horns one after another, groups of Xiliang iron cavalry came out from the front and both sides, and launched a tidal offensive against the infantry phalanx formed by Jiang Qi and Han Meng, but the number of Xiliang iron cavalry was not much, and all of them added up to only more than 2,000 cavalry, which could not pose a mortal threat to Cao's infantry phalanx.

Under the rows of throwing guns of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, although the Cao army suffered heavy casualties, it still withstood the counterattack of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry again and again by virtue of its strong military advantage.

Half an hour later, Lu Qian's archers finally pressed up, the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was forced to retreat, and Cao's army finally stabilized its position outside the trench!

Without the disturbance of the Xiliang archers, the light troops led by the Tibetan tyrant filled the trench much faster, and finally filled in a passage for cavalry at noon, and at this time, the 15,000 light soldiers led by Yin Li, Sun Guan and Song Xian had all gathered outside the south gate of Xuchang, so far, all the 40,000 troops under Cao Ying had been assembled outside the south gate of Xuchang.

In the passionate war drums, Cao Ying appeared outside the south gate wearing the bronze armor of ordinary Hebei cavalry, surrounded by Xun Yu, Xun You, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye, Jia Kui and others, everyone was also wearing cavalry bronze armor, and the clan general Cao Xiu led the last three hundred tiger and leopard horses to follow behind Cao Ying.

Surprisingly, the tiger and leopard cavalry also took off the iron armor and instead wore the bronze armor of the Hebei cavalry. Obviously, the cunning Cao Ying had already reserved a way out, disguising himself and his important strategists as ordinary cavalry among the five thousand Hebei cavalry. In times of emergency, such camouflage can often play an unexpected role.

Outside the south gate, Zhang He's 5,000 elite horsemen had already assembled and stood by, reflecting a piece of golden light under the scorching winter sun, as if the heavenly soldiers and generals were magnificent.

Zhang He and Zhang Liao stood in front of the formation in parallel.

Suddenly, Zhang He pulled the reins of the horse fiercely, and the long neighing of the war horse under the crotch suddenly stood up, and the front hooves kicked in the air, and then stomped on the ground, making a muffled sound, and the eyes of the five thousand soldiers focused on Zhang He in an instant, Zhang He slowly pressed down the iron gun in his hand, pointed to the passage that had just been filled in front of him with the tip of the gun, and shouted: "Soldiers of the three armies, do you see the road ahead?" It was a bloody road, a bloody road paved by the infantrymen with their own lives and corpses! ”

There was a dead silence above and below the city gate, only Zhang He's sonorous voice echoed with the north wind of the call sign, stirring endlessly between heaven and earth.

"More than 10,000 infantry soldiers, in order to pave this road, they died alive under the arrows of the Liang army!" Zhang He's eyes suddenly turned red, and he roared, "The blood of these infantry soldiers must not be shed in vain, and their lives must not be sacrificed in vain!" The sons and daughters of Hejian County (these 5,000 elite horsemen are the old department brought out by Zhang He from Hejian County), the blood debt must be repaid with blood, use the sabre in your hand to find the Liangzhou coyote on the opposite side to take revenge! ”

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

"Revenge!"

Five thousand elite cavalry responded with three shouts, the momentum shook the sky, and with the hoarse roar of the cavalry, the morale of the Cao army also rose to the peak, and the final decisive moment finally came.

……

Liang army camp.

A faint smile flashed across Gao Shun's face, and he looked back at Li Su and said: "It is worthy of Cao Ying, in such an unfavorable adversity, there is still a way to make a surrendered army that has just surrendered to serve him desperately, and it can also inspire such a high morale, it is really not easy." ”

Li Su's eyes showed a trace of worry, and he said to Gao Shun: "General, did you shrink the car formation first while the Cao army had not yet launched an attack?" After all, the current car formation is too scattered, and it is easy for Cao Jun's cavalry to pass through the gap in the middle! Moreover, the strength of the Cao army is too much, almost twice that of our army, even if the car formation can be closed in time and block the Cao army in the middle, but with the advantage of strong troops, the Cao army may not be able to break through our army's car formation. ”

"Nope." Gao Shun shook his head and said, "Now the moving car formation will expose the target, once Cao Ying can see through it and change the direction of the attack, then the arrangement of the lord and the military division will be wasted!" ”

Li Su said: "But the cavalry of the Cao army ......"

Gao Shun said: "Even if the cavalry of the Cao army can break through the car formation, there is still the wolf cavalry of General Jutu waiting, they may not be able to break through the volley of the wolf cavalry, take a step back, even if the cavalry of the Cao army can desperately break through the resistance of the wolf cavalry, it will not be able to reverse the overall situation!" Cao Ying's army of tens of thousands is over! ”

Gao Shun's tone revealed a categorical confidence, and Li Su stopped persuading him.

……

Cao Jun in front of the formation.

"General Yin Li's headquarters has been lined up."

"General Sun Guan's headquarters has been lined up."

"General Song Xian's headquarters has been lined up."

Cao Xiu spread the transfer of Cao's army to Cao Ying, and the breakthrough battle was imminent, but Cao Ying felt faintly uneasy.

It's too abnormal, everything is too abnormal, the Liang army actually waited for the Cao army to open up the formation, and didn't launch a large-scale counterattack when the Cao army was not stable! Trap, this is a trap for sure! However, as Xun Yu said, even if he knew that it was a trap, Cao Ying could only jump into it.

Now either Cao Ying's fish is dead, or the horse butcher's net is broken, everything can only be resigned to fate!

Heaven has already helped the horse butcher escape death three times, this time, will it help the horse butcher a fourth time? Or did Cao Ying come and go, and finally won the mercy of God and escaped death?

"My lord." The strategist Xun Yu leaned up on his horse and proposed to Cao Ying, "When the siege will be broken, the lord's guard of honor can break through with the infantry, and the lord himself had better act with General Zhang He's cavalry team, after all, the cavalry moves quickly, and the chance of breaking through is greater." ”

"Hmm."

Cao Ying nodded heavily.

Xun Yu only said half of what he said, but Cao Ying is a smart person, of course he can hear Xun Yu's extraneous meaning.

In fact, Xun Yu was reminding Cao Ying that when necessary, let Cao Ying directly abandon the infantry and only lead the cavalry to break through, without the drag of the infantry, the speed of the cavalry breakthrough will be greatly increased, after all, the trench in front of Cao Jun no longer exists, from here to the periphery of the Liang army camp is a flat land, and the speed of the cavalry is far from comparable to the infantry.

"Aung Aung ......"

Cao Ying was about to give the order to attack, when a particularly passionate horn suddenly sounded in front of him.

With the sound of the horn, the dense Liang army tents on the left and right sides and in front of them suddenly cracked, however, what was surprising was that under the cracked camp tents was not dense Liang army soldiers, but board cars! Each cart is two feet high and four feet wide, and its body is all made of criss-cross wood.

The front of the cart is flat, and rows of wooden stakes rise on the board, the tips of which are sharpened, and the sharpness of the white forest gives off a palpitating cold color in the slanting sun.

"What?" Cao Ying suddenly gasped and hissed, "What the hell is this?" ”

"It looks like a vehicle made of wooden nails." Liu Ye said awe-inspiringly, "When the horse butcher was still the captain of Wuhuan, the strategist Guo Tu under his command once used this kind of vehicle to defeat the Xianbei cavalry of Kebineng. ”

"Not good!" Liu Ye's voice fell, and Xun Yu shouted, "Lord, these vehicles are moving!" ”

"Well, you can still move!?"

Cao Ying was taken aback again, and looked forward with his eyes fixedly, and sure enough, he saw that these bulky vehicles were moving slowly, originally criss-crossed and disorderly on the plain, but in less than a moment, these vehicles were slowly connected into a whole between advance and retreat, and the flat front instantly formed a solid wall that was two feet high and hundreds of steps wide.

What is especially desperate is that this strong wall is also densely covered with sharp antlers, and it is impossible to climb at all!

"Oh my God, the vehicles on both sides are moving, too!" When Cao Ying was startled, Cheng Yu also shouted, "And it is crushing our army from three directions!" ”

"Roar~~"

"Roar~~"

"Roar~~"

Cheng Yu's voice fell, and the neat and loud trumpets of the soldiers of the Liang Army sounded on the left and right and in front at the same time, and the movement speed of the three strong walls gradually began to accelerate, and the gap between the left and right walls and the original wall quickly disappeared, and the distance between the front wall and the front wall gradually approached, or it would take a meal to complete the three strong walls.

At that time, the path of Cao's army will be completely blocked, and if Cao's army cannot break through these three walls, then the fate that awaits them will only be to retreat in panic. However, there is only one way to retreat, and in order to escape for their lives, the Cao generals will definitely trample on each other, and even if they escape back to Xuchang City, this group of remnants will only be a dead end.

In other words, from this moment on, Cao Jun had only two options left, either to pass through the gap before the three strong walls closed, or to launch a strong attack after the strong walls closed, break through the three strong walls from the front, and then calmly break through, and there was no third choice.

If he chooses to break through first, Cao Ying must ruthlessly abandon all the infantry!

Only the speed of the cavalry's movement made it possible to pass through the gap before the three walls were firmly closed.

"Got it!" Cao Ying finally understood Liang Jun's intentions, and said awe-inspiringly, "This is the horse butcher's good calculation!" However, with these three wooden walls, the horse butcher wants to block the lone army of 40,000, which is inevitably too big, right? ”

"Lord!" Strategist Xun Yu hurriedly said, "Don't underestimate the horse butcher's car formation!" The lord took advantage of the fact that the three board walls had not yet closed, and broke through with General Zhang He's cavalry! ”

"Please break through first!"

"Please break through first!"

"Please break through first!"

Xun You, Cheng Yu, Liu Ye and others turned over and dismounted, kneeling down in the dust.

When Cao Ying was hesitating, Xun Yu hurriedly said: "There is no time, where are Cao Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Zangba?" ”

Cao Xiu, Zhang Liao, and Zangba hurriedly stepped forward and responded with their fists clenched: "The end will be here." ”

Xun Yu said: "Immediately lead three hundred tiger and leopard cavalry generals and Gongda, Zhongde, and Ziyang to escort to General Zhang He's army, and break through with the cavalry!" ”

Seeing that Xun Yu had already made his own decisions, Cao Ying no longer insisted on staying, but just shouted: "What about you? ”

Xun Yu smiled and said loudly: "This Chinese army can't be left unmanned, and the military division who is the lord should stay behind to command the various departments to break through, the lord can rest assured, although the Liang army's board car formation is powerful, it may not be able to trap the 40,000 heavy soldiers of our army, and it is still unknown who will die." ”
