The vanguard cavalry of the Cao and Ma coalition forces encountered this trap and hidden weapon, and they were embarrassed all the way and dodged everywhere, but they couldn't avoid it at all, and the losses were not small. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

In desperation, these cavalry had to dismount and were forced to begin to carefully scout the road ahead, and the cavalry became infantry, and the advantage was not there.

In the face of these countless traps and hidden weapons, Cao Cao and Ma Ta Hu Chen felt very headache, the existence of these things will pose a great threat to their subsequent offensive operations, Cao Cao and Ma Ta Hu Chen had to let their army unify and transform into a "minesweeper team" step by step to explore the road, clean up the traps and hidden weapons and fortifications laid by the alliance.

At the beginning of the war, the border guards of the Union Army did not lose a single soldier, and they successfully defused the offensive of the opponent's multi-million army, forcing the other side to stop the attack.

It was at this time that the garrison troops on the border really began their work.

Naturally, the task of this border defense force commanded by Chu Tiankuo is not to stop the frontal attack of the Cao and Ma coalition forces, and everyone knows that it is impossible for the border defense force to accomplish such a task with a mere 100,000 people. Lin Ran's task to Chu Tiankuo was to conduct guerrilla warfare and harassment warfare!

The garrison was divided into thousands of groups, and every day they took advantage of the darkness to touch the positions in front of them, although these positions were full of traps, but for them, the initiators of the traps laid by themselves, they naturally knew and knew that they would not fall for these things.

These "guerrillas" in the era of cold weapons, through sneak attacks and raids, took advantage of the darkness of the night to carry out sabotage operations against the enemy's important facilities and important personnel, and greatly threatened the order of the Cao and Ma coalition forces -- although these guerrillas actually did not cause much damage to the enemy, but only burned down some granaries and buildings, and assassinated some targets, the atmosphere of tension and distrust created by the coalition guerrillas in the enemy camp greatly lowered the enemy's morale.

On such a battlefield, the guerrillas of the Union border guards were often able to easily leave the enemy army and return to their garrison positions after completing their mission, and it was almost impossible for the enemy's pursuers to pursue these guys who knew how to show security in such a trap-strewn place.

Under the constant harassment of the guerrillas under Chu Tiankuo's command, the enemy's footsteps were further delayed, and the distance that could be advanced every day was less than 500 meters.

This situation made Ma Tahu Chen and Cao Cao very annoyed, just a border can make them so disgraced and spend so much time, so if you want to break through Shouchun City, you have to wait until the Year of the Monkey and Ma Yue!

"Can't delay any longer! In fact, it is easy to crack these traps and tools for them! Look at me! "Ma Tahu Chen requisitioned thousands of ploughing cattle from the rear, and these ploughing cattle were usually very docile - of course, when their tails were not on fire.

In the face of the current tricky situation, Ma Tahu Chen borrowed from Tian Dan's fire bull strategy in ancient times.

Fire Bull Formation, a tactic invented by Tian Dan, the general of the Warring States Period.

In 284 BC, Le Yi led the alliance of the Six Nations to attack Qi in order to avenge the revenge of Qi 30 years ago when Qi took advantage of the turmoil in Yan to send troops to Yandi.

All the way is like a bamboo, invincible.

After the army broke the main force of the Qi army in Liaocheng, the five countries withdrew, and the Yan army continued to advance eastward, breaking through Linzi, in just half a year, more than 70 cities of Qi fell one after another, and finally only two isolated cities of Jucheng and Jimo remained.

In 279 BC, King Yanhui ascended the throne. Tian Dan surrendered to the Yan army, paralyzed it, and at night with more than 1,000 head of oxen, the horns of the ox were tied with blades, and the tail was tied with reeds to fill with oil, ignited with fire, and rushed to the Yan army, and then rushed to kill with 5,000 warriors, defeated the Yan army, and killed the cavalry. Tiandan won more than 70 cities.

Today, Ma Tahu Chen is also preparing to follow the example of the ancients, use the fire ox array to break the enemy troops stationed on the opposite side, smoothly cross the Huainan border, and approach in the direction of Shouchun City.

The tails of thousands of fire oxen were infected with fire oil, and a large number of firecrackers were tied, and they were uniformly driven to the front of the two armies by Ma Tahu Chen's troops.

Cao Cao's subordinates were amazed when they saw this scene. Cao Cao has rich experience and is well versed in the art of war, so he immediately saw Ma Tao's plan to step on Hu Chen, and nodded in agreement: "This Fire Ox Array is indeed a good method. ‘’

Soon, these thousands of fire bulls were ignited, fortunately, there were no animal protection associations or other organizations in this era, and these thousands of panicked fire bulls instantly rushed forward frantically - in fact, this fire bull array mostly ended in failure in modern experiments.

During the war, modern troops from both sides tried the fire bull formation, but the effect was a failure, and the frightened cattle not only did not rush to the enemy camp, but collided in place, causing heavy casualties.

Therefore, before the operation, Ma Tahu Dust had studied it in detail and was sure that such a situation would not occur on his side.

The reason is very simple, in the distance visible to the naked eye, on the side of the enemy's camp, there is a large lake and river, and in the end, these fire bulls have no choice but to run to those places and rush into the enemy's position.

As Ma Ta Hu Chen expected, these thousands of fire oxen were very terrifying, whistling along the way I don't know how many traps and iron nails and thistles on the ground were trampled down, and using their bodies to provide many roads to the enemy positions for the horses and Cao coalition troops in the rear.

The anxious infantry of the Cao and Ma coalition forces hurriedly followed behind these fire bulls, and rushed from the safe road they opened up to the defensive positions of the alliance border guards.

This rampaging fire bull surprised Chu Tiankuo on the other side, he really didn't expect that Ma Ta Hu Chen on the opposite side would be able to think of such a method to break his own defensive position.

Thousands of fire bulls frantically rushed into their own positions, rushing in all directions, killing and wounding many soldiers, causing great chaos in their own positions.

These fire bulls that are running away are simply not something that human beings can deal with. Chu Tiankuo finally knew why the army of the Yan State was defeated under Jimo City.

And at this time, the enemy's army has passed through the safe road and appeared in front of its own army.

"I can't hold it." Chu Tiankuo stood calmly in place, and finally came to the conclusion that after some tossing and turning by this fire ox, his own troops on the position had fallen into chaos, and it was difficult to organize a favorable defense, and it was no longer meaningful to defend here, and it could only be dead and wounded soldiers in vain.

"Order, the whole army, immediately retreat 1 The whole army retreats to Shouchun City!" Chu Tiankuo ordered decisively.
