Chapter 530: Cao Jun's Crossbow Arrow

On the Jingzhou side, Gan Ning led the navy to invade Xiangyang County and Nanjun, making Jingzhou's internal chickens and dogs jump, and annihilating the two Jingzhou naval armies stationed in Hanshui in one fell swoop. Now, except for the Xiakou where the Han River flows out of the Yangtze River, which is controlled by the Jingzhou Navy, the entire Han River has been controlled by Gan Ning.

In this way, against Jingzhou's attack on Nanyang, Zhang Xiu's side has already gained the upper hand. Unless Guan Yu transferred Xiakou's Jingzhou naval army, Jingzhou would suffer heavy losses. And if the Jingzhou naval army in Xiakou is transferred, then the personnel guarding Jiangdong will be reduced. Losing the deterrence of the Xiakou Water Army, whether it was Guan Yu, Xu Shu, Liu Bei, or Zhuge Liang, they naturally would not naively think that Jiangdong would not attack because of the alliance. In the troubled times, there were too many renegades in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, so Guan Yu and Xu Shu did not dare to touch Xiakou's naval army.

Not to mention that Guan Yu and Xu Shu had a headache about how to deal with the intrusion of Zhang Xiu's army, Zhang Shao and Guo Jia, who were confronting Zhang Xiu's army at Chenliu County at this time, also had a headache about Zhang Xiu's cavalry invading Yanzhou. Zhang Shao's camp.

In the big tent, Zang Ba reluctantly said to Zhang Shao on the main seat: "Report to the general, the grain and grass transported from Chen Liu have been burned by Zhang Xiu's cavalry, and now our army has three batches of grain and grass burned. If we don't think about it, our army will worry about food and grass. ”

After listening to this, Zhang Shao looked at Guo Jia helplessly. Guo Jia heard it, but said strangely: "This time the grain and grass are protected and escorted by a large army, and the enemy army dares to come?" ”

Zang Ba heard this, sighed helplessly and said, "Not bad! The enemy relied on the stunt of running and shooting, and only more than 1,000 people kept running and shooting at our army of escorting grain and grass. At the same time, they ignited rockets and destroyed our army's food and grass with rockets, although our troops were numerous, they were all foot soldiers, and they could not catch up...... After speaking, Zang Ba sighed deeply.

Guo Jia frowned tightly when he heard this. Zhang Xiu's cavalry did not directly contact the army escorting grain and grass, and only attacked with sharp arrows and rockets. In this way, it is too difficult for Guo Jia to set a trap to destroy these cavalry. Moreover, there are only more than 1,000 people who can come to intrude, and at most a few can be destroyed, and they can't be all day at all.

In this case, Guo Jia's first thought was to ride against ride, and then shook his head again. Now all the cavalry of the Cao army are in the hands of Xiahou Bi to deal with Zhao Yun's cavalry. The number of cavalry of Cao's army was not as good as that of Zhang Xiu, and the elite of the cavalry was not as good as that of Zhang Xiu, so in this case, the only way to concentrate troops was to deal with Zhang Xiu's army first, and then turn to encircle the other one.

And judging from the current situation, it is not so easy to transfer cavalry from Hebei, you must know that the Yellow River waterway is now controlled by the naval army of Huo Jun, Zhang Xiu's subordinate.

Although the Yellow River stretched from Jizhou and Yanzhou all the way to Qingzhou to the sea, it was impossible for Huo Jun's naval army to control it all. However, Cao Jun's brigade of cavalry wanted to cross the river in Yanzhou, but they were afraid that it would be extremely difficult, and if they wanted to go around to Qingzhou and come back, they didn't know what the situation would become.

Thinking of this, Guo Jia sighed secretly: "What a good Jia Wenhe, first took advantage of Zhang Wenyuan's big victory to attack Yanzhou. Now when he entered the territory of Yanzhou and saw that our army was strong, he took advantage of the cavalry to harass Yanzhou, and then took the initiative to passive, forcing our army to attack. You think our army can't help it! ii:…… r……”

Over there, Zhang Shao saw Guo Jia's brows tightened, so he asked softly: "Does Guo Xianjiu have a strategy to break the enemy?" ”

Guo Jia sighed lightly and said, "In this situation, Jia has no choice but to attack. As long as Zhang Xiu is broken, the danger of Yanzhou will be solved. ”

Zhang Shao heard this, frowned and said: "But the crossbows of our army have not yet arrived, and if we want to break Zhang Xiu's army, the chances of winning are not great." ”

Guo Jia heard it and said: "It's okay, Zhang Xiu divided his troops into Yanzhou, and now there are traces of Zhang Xiu's cavalry in all parts of Yanzhou except Chen Liucheng." In this way, Zhang Xiu must have let a large group of cavalry enter Yanzhou, but there are not many troops here, and our army has 100,000 troops here, and the strength is at least twice as large as the enemy army. ”

When Zhang Shao heard this, he frowned and said: "Having said that, our army is only a step year, and if the cavalry against Zhang Xiu takes the initiative to attack, I am afraid that it will suffer heavy losses!" ”

Guo Jia said: "How can there be a reason for immortality in the battle array. Even if our army defeated Zhang Xiu's 50,000 cavalry with 100,000 foot soldiers, our army still won. The threat of Zhang Xiu's cavalry to our army is too great, "If one of them is destroyed here, Hebei Yuan Rang will destroy Zhao Yun's department again, and Zhang Xiu will have no cavalry available. Relying on the foot soldiers alone, Zhang Xiu can only defend to the death, and the opportunity of our army will arrive! Guo Jia's words are actually a lose-lose strategy, and he will exchange his embroidered cavalry for every year.

After hearing this, Zhang Shao nodded and said, "Okay! After finishing speaking, Zhang Shaohuo got up. Shouted = "Zang Ba." Sun Guan ● Sun Li. Wangmen ...... Listen to orders. Remove the trap outside the camp first. Then ...... "After saying that, Zhang Shao assigned a task to each person before letting everyone leave, preparing for tomorrow's battle." "Knock knock knock 1111111" Woo woo woo 111111"

Early in the morning of the second day, the sky was slightly bright, and Cao's army, which had eaten well, rushed out of the camp amid the earth-shattering war drums and the continuous sound of trumpets, and immediately lined up outside the camp.

How many people are in the 100,000 Cao army? It was really overwhelming, and when I looked at it, I could only see the human head but not the earth. Among the Cao army arrayed, the front was the Danyang soldiers of Xuzhou, the two wings were the Taishan soldiers, and the rear was the Qingzhou descending year of the Yuan family after training. "Qiang Qiang Qiang 1111111" Kill kill 111111

The sound of the exchange of weapons and the shouts of the soldiers couldn't help but explode, and the murderous aura couldn't help but rise, gathering in the sky above this battlefield, and the breath became extremely solemn for a while!

"Knock knock knock one by one

"Woo woo woo one one"

Cao Jun's momentum here is shocking, how can Zhang Xiu not know over there. I only heard a soft "crunch", the camp gate of Zhang Xiu's camp was wide open, and the cavalry immediately swarmed out of the camp and stood in front of the camp!

"Boom Boom One One One"

The cavalry of the brigade came from the camp, and the sound of horses' hooves of thousands of troops and horses coming out of the battle, like a sudden explosion of thunder in the sky, suddenly covered the shouting and killing of Cao Jun's side. As soon as the momentum came out, it was so powerful that Cao Jun's face changed from top to bottom. "Call for one by one, one by one, one by one"

After the cavalry lined up, they saw Zhang Xiu, Ma and Hua Xiong coming out of the camp surrounded by soldiers. I saw Zhang Xiu stop his horses, and the cavalry behind him immediately stopped, and Zhang Xiu's side became silent for a while!

This series of changes stunned Cao Jun up and down, and all Cao generals, including Zhang Shao himself, were shocked. Although they knew that Zhang Xiu's cavalry was elite, they didn't expect it to be so powerful that it could be said to be a real order and prohibition. It is difficult to prohibit tens of thousands of steps, let alone tens of thousands of cavalry, from which it can be seen that the horsemanship of Zhang Xiu's soldiers is so powerful "The discipline is strict, it can definitely be called an iron army, and among the Cao army, I am afraid that only those elite troops can do it!" Cao's army went out first but there were many people, and Zhang Xiu's army came out later but there were few people, so the two armies were almost in line at the same time.

In the middle of the Chinese army, Zhang Xiu looked at the large area of Cao Jun in front of him with half-squinted eyes, and said secretly in his heart: "After waiting for so many days, I finally forced you out!" Then he said to Ma and Huaxiong beside him: "Ma, Huaxiong, and you will go to the left and right sides respectively, lead the army to attack the two wings of the Cao army, and cooperate with our army to attack, there must be no mistake!" ”

Ma and Hua Xiong were ordered to leave, and Zhang Xiu shouted to the herald behind him: "Beat the drum!" Herald Pangu Lux Tooth - Array! "Knock knock

Zhang Xiu gave an order here, the sound of war drums became more and more urgent, and the cavalry in front of the formation suddenly separated, and a group of men and horses were all wearing heavy armor, and everyone was holding a mace of the cavalry out of the formation, which was the Pangulis led by Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang.

The Pangulis who came out of the battle did not stop, but rushed towards Cao's army one by one. Over there, Zhang Shao had clearly seen that it was a thousand Pangulux, and he had suffered a big loss under Pangulux, so he naturally knew that Pangulis was powerful, and his pupils shrank unconsciously.

Here, Zhang Xiu saw that Pangulishi was about to cross half the distance, and the tiger-headed golden gun in his hand suddenly raised, shouting: "Kill!! ”

Zhang Xiu's shouting sounded like thunder in the ears of ~~ Wanqiang Hu Tieqi, and all the Qiang Hu Tieqi Shinian instinctively pinched the horse's belly. All of a sudden, the silent battlefield on Zhang Xiu's side sounded the neighing of war horses one after another! The next moment, 40,000 Qiang Hu Tie cavalry charged towards 100,000 Cao soldiers!

At the forefront, a thousand Pangulis advanced under the leadership of Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang, and a thousand heavy horses galloped wildly, splashing up frenzied sand and dust, covering the slightly golden Bo sky.

Under the billowing dust, a thousand pangulis have already raised the mace in their hands high, as long as they kill in front of the Cao army's formation, the sharp mace will give the enemy a merciless blow! Here, Zhang Shao saw that Pangulis was gradually approaching, took a deep breath, and shouted, "Change formation."

The next moment, the banner of the Cao army waved, and the phalanx of the Danyang soldiers at the front of the Cao army suddenly sank. Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang were puzzled. However, when the two of them saw it clearly, they gasped and exclaimed, "Not good! It's a crossbow bolt! ”

No, just after the Danyang soldiers retreated and separated, what was revealed was a row of sharp crossbow arrows, and under the sunlight, this row of crossbow arrows revealed a hideous face! Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang, who had seen the power of crossbow arrows, had already seen that the crossbow arrows in Cao's army array were big crossbows, crossbows, arm crossbows and other large crossbows, although they were not large crossbows such as bed crossbows and crossbow cars, but their power should never be underestimated.

However, when Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang saw it clearly, Zhang Shao had already dropped his right arm heavily, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Shoot!" ”

"Whoosh ......"

The sound of breaking the sky suddenly sounded, and Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang, who rushed to the front, faced the most crossbow arrows, at least three each! The heavy cavalry is not flexible in moving, and in this case there is only hard fighting!

I only heard Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang roaring suddenly, and they tried their best to tease with the mace stick in their hands! The mace is extremely long, and it meets three attacking crossbow arrows with a single blow! While! While! While......

The loud sound of earth-shattering came out, and Hu Qian'er only felt a violent tremor in his hands, and then a feeling of paralysis came. This is a feeling that Hu Che'er has not tried since he was born.

It's just that after a while, the paralysis subsides, and when I look at it again, except for the three small holes in the mace, I am not injured. Hu Che'er secretly wondered: "So weak? After thinking about it, he immediately looked back and saw that among the 1,000 pangulis, about dozens of people were killed by crossbow arrows. Most of these are Pangulis who have been attacked by crossbow arrows a lot, and the mace in his hand can't be blocked, you must know that although the heavy armor is powerful, it can't block the sharp crossbow arrows.

However, this is too far from the heavy losses imagined by Hu Che'er, you must know that when Han Sui's cavalry was destroyed, the Tianxian Bei army had the greatest effect, and the most powerful thing was the terrifying crossbow arrow. Therefore, while the crossbow arrows kill the enemy, they have also become the shadow of Zhang Xiujun, and they are afraid that one day they will face such powerful crossbow arrows.

When they saw the crossbow arrows, both Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang were shocked, but after receiving a round of crossbow arrows, the feeling was completely different.

How did Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang know that Cao Jun's crossbow arrows were different from Zhang Xiujun's crossbow arrows. Zhang Xiu used the cavalry of Tianhan Sui, and the crossbow arrows used to destroy the Xianbei army were all large crossbows such as bed crossbows and crossbow carts, and they were also transformed by Zhang Xiu and Ma Jun. And now Cao Jun only uses single crossbows such as the big yellow crossbow, the arm Zhang crossbow, and the Qi Zhang crossbow. The most powerful of these is the crossbow, but when it comes to the sky, it is a soldier with a little more strength to use alone, and the power is naturally stronger than that of a bow and arrow. It is natural to deal with cavalry who only wear leather armor or have weak defensive strength, but against heavy cavalry such as Pangulis, it is inevitably a little powerless.

These single crossbows are also in the Zhang Xiu army, but they are mainly used in defending the city, and Zhang Xiu is also equipped in the wilderness, but they are almost never used, or they disdain to use these less powerful crossbows.

However, a round of crossbow arrows killed dozens of pangulis, and it has to be said that these crossbow arrows are not powerful. You must know that Pangulis can be described as truly invulnerable, unless the enemy uses divine weapons, or has the strength of a general, to have the ability to break armor. Ordinary people can't break the heavy armor of Pangulis at all, but this round of nearly 300 crossbow arrows shot dozens of Pangulux, which can be said to be a relatively large casualty of Pangulis since its establishment.

However, after resisting this round of crossbow arrows, instead of lowering the morale of Pangulis due to casualties, his morale suddenly increased, knowing that the enemy's crossbow arrows were nothing more than that!

I only heard the leading Hu Che'er and Zhou Cang shouting, and pinched the horse's belly heavily, so that the horse's forward rush reached the limit. More than 900 Pangulis also followed, and with a shout, they suddenly rushed forward, and the murderous aura accumulated condensed into an indomitable momentum, killing towards the Cao army's big array!

The crossbow arrows only killed dozens of black-armored cavalrymen, which made Zhang Shao's eyes widen in surprise. Seeing Pangu Lishi advancing, he was about to kill, and at the same time, Zhang Xiu's army behind him followed, if he couldn't stop Pangulis, then Cao's army would inevitably be defeated as last time. Thinking of this, Zhang Shao gritted his teeth fiercely and shouted: "Drumming!" Change formations! Let the Euphorbia go out against them! ”
