On the border between Yuyang County and Xinye County, the Cao army camp was stationed.

Cao 'Cao' led the army and moved here.

The terrain of this place is open, and the difficulty is that there are no mountains, forests and rivers around, so it is impossible to set up ambushes. In such a situation, it is most suitable for the garrison. The army under the command of Cao 'Cao' was stationed here.

After many days, part of the army under his command has already arrived.

The barracks, the military is at its peak.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao 'Cao' is reading a book.

Outside the tent, a thin figure walked in. The person who came was Jia Xu, and after he entered the big tent, he bowed and said, "Prime Minister, I just got the news that Liu Xiu personally led the army to help Xinye County." It's just that before, there was no news about Liu Xiu, and today he suddenly appeared in Xinye County. ”

Cao 'Cao' put down the book in his hand and asked, "Wenhe, what do you think?"

Jia Xu said: "I think that Liu Xiu may have already arrived in Xinye County, waiting for Zhang Ren to consume Cao Ren's troops, and then rush to help if he can't stand it." ”

Cao '' his sleeves and said: "This assertion has been analyzed before. ”

"What Ben Xiang wants to know is that in this battle, how do you think Liu Xiu will break the situation Liu Xiu is 'fine' in the use of soldiers, he may not have guessed that Ben Xiang would go south at the beginning. If Zhang Ren only held out for a day or two, and Liu Xiu went to the rescue, then Liu Xiu didn't know that Xu Huang's 'elite' was a surprise soldier who could defeat Liu Xiu in one go. ”

"The problem now is that Zhang Ren has persisted for six days, and today is already the seventh day. ”

"For so many days, the north has been constantly deploying troops, and troops are constantly entering Nanyang County. Liu Xiu is extremely 'shrewd', and now he must know that his true appearance is coming. You say, what will he do"

At this moment, Cao 'Cao' has already seen some clues.

Jia Xu said: "Prime Minister, even if Liu Xiu knows. But Xu Huang commanded 5,000 'fine' riders, and he killed them in a dignified manner. It was enough to crush Liu Xiu. Even if Liu Xiu guessed it, even if he sent troops to stop it, it would be useless. ”

After a pause, Jia Xu said again: "Moreover, there are tigers and leopards under the command of the lord. Once Xu Huang's 5,000 'fine' cavalry is difficult to achieve, the tiger and leopard cavalry will immediately kill, and Liu Xiu will be defeated. Therefore, in the next game, Liu Xiu can't break it. ”

Cao '' smiled, did not speak, and said, "We will wait and see, I hope Liu Xiu will not disappoint the original appearance." ”

Jia Xu bowed and retreated, but muttered in his heart, the prime minister's tone seemed to hope that Liu Xiu would break the game. Although Jia Xu also admits that Liu Xiu is talented, when it comes to leading troops to fight, it is a different matter.

In the north of the county, Liu Xiu led the army to suppress the formation.

A Jinyi guard soldier stood beside Liu Xiu and said, "My lord, I just got the news that in the northwest of the county seat, I found Cao Jun Qiqi. At present, Cao Jun has 'pressed' towards Xinye County. ”

When Liu Xiu heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The battle began.

Since Liu Xiu judged that Cao 'Cao' was going south, he knew that rescuing Xinye was not so simple.

Wei Yan went to the rescue, and Cao 'Cao' must intercept and kill.

So, it's a situation where they keep making moves and each one after another.

Liu Xiu led 2,000 soldiers to press the formation, and his eyes still fell on the Cao army and Jingzhou soldiers who were constantly fighting in front. Wei Yan and Cao Ren led the army to fight, and the army had begun to break Cao Ren's letting go, and the balance of the war was getting closer to him little by little.

Xu Huang came from the northwest direction, the cavalry ran, the war horses neighed, and the smoke and dust were everywhere for a while.

On the official road, even the ground is shaking.

The war horse hurried quickly, and it was less than ten miles away from the north of Xinye County. This place is a wide official road. On the right side of the official road is a stream, which swells and flows rapidly with the arrival of summer. On the left side of the official road is a hillside covered with green grass, the mountain is not high, about ten zhang, and the slope is very low.

The width of the pipeline is close to about ten zhang, and such a wide official road is simply the most suitable road for cavalry.

On the hillside, Shamoko lay on his stomach in the grass.

A soldier came running quickly and reported: "General, the cavalry of Cao's army is here." ”

Shamoko's spirit perked up and commanded, "Quickly, immediately remove the planks on the ground and prepare for battle." ”

At the sound of an order, I saw soldiers rushing out one by one, quickly rushing to the official road, and then 'pumping' off the wooden planks laid on the ground. The planks are long strips covered with dirt and covered with the ground. As the planks 'pulled' open, trenches three feet deep and one foot wide immediately emerged.

On the official road, many trenches are arranged.

The ravines are like small rivers, dividing the official roads into strips.

Ten feet in front of the ravine, there stood a hundred soldiers.

The 100 soldiers were on the official road in such a bright light, one of them was carrying a big yellow crossbow, and one soldier was holding a crossbow arrow, waiting quietly.

"Boom"

On the straight official road, there was suddenly a shocking sound of horses' hooves.

Iron hooves trampled it, and the ground shook with it.

"Ready"

One of the Qu commanders in charge gave a direct order, and he saw that the barbarians immediately lay on the ground, pulled the bowstring with one hand, and stepped on the big bow with the other to prepare.

In the blink of an eye, on the official road ahead, there was a black pressure on the Qiyu.

The crossbowmen immediately loaded their special crossbow arrows, and the distance between the two sides had been reduced to about 100 zhang, and the crossbowmen went directly to the room.

"Woohoo"

The roar broke through the air, and fifty specially made crossbow arrows 'fired' out.

The fifty bolts began to advance diagonally upwards from the ground, and when they approached the cavalry that was rushing in densely, the arrows were positioned exactly at the 'chest' line.

"Puff puff"

The crossbow bolt 'fired' into the soldier, pierced the body on the spot, and continued backwards.

A single bolt is often enough to 'shoot' four soldiers before the power on the bolt is exhausted. There are even crossbow arrows with strong power and suitable angles, and the number of soldiers killed by one arrow has reached six soldiers.

On the spot, I saw Qi Qi fall to the ground one by one, and there was turmoil in the camp in front of him.

A wave of crossbow arrows caused more than 100 casualties.

"Xi Yuyu"

The war horse neighed, and it was even more frenzied and 'chaotic'.

The screams of the soldiers were also heard immediately, and some of the soldiers who fell to the ground were only seriously injured, but the successive war horses rushed up, and they could not dodge at all, and were directly trampled to death.

Xu Huang was in the army, and when he found out, he ordered loudly: "Charge, charge at full speed." ”

The speed of the war horse was extremely fast, and according to Xu Huang's visual measurement, the distance between the two sides was about 100 zhang. As long as the war horse sprints with all its might, it only takes a moment to rush forward. Once the distance is closer, the opponent's bow and crossbow will lose their effect.

"Woohoo"

The second bolt of crossbow arrows came again.

This time, Cao Jun Qiqi was prepared and angrily drew his sword to resist.

"Bell"

The sound of crashing is endless.

"Ahh

The terrible screams also kept coming.

After three consecutive rounds of crossbow arrows, the huge force of the two sides has been reduced to about forty zhang.

Xu Huang was holding a mountain-opening axe in his hand, and he shouted: "Charge, sprint with all your might." Xu Huang's eyes showed a cold expression. Liu Xiu just wanted to rely on more than 100 crossbowmen to block, it was a fool's dream, and it was absolutely impossible to succeed.

The fourth round of crossbow arrows 'fired', and the cavalry was once again 'shot' killed.

Especially at close range, many of the crossbow arrows did not hit the cavalry because of the lack of height, but many of the horses were killed. As soon as the war horses were 'chaotic', the formation was even more 'chaotic', and the situation was even more dangerous.

Rao is like this, Xu Huang's army still did not appear in the 'chaos', and quickly 'approached'.

When he was only about thirty feet away from the crossbowman, the soldier at the front saw the situation in front of him, and was so shocked that he hurriedly grabbed the reins of his horse and tried to stop. But under the sprint of the war horse, it was impossible to stop. Under the inertial 'sex' sprint, the war horse entered the area full of trenches at once.

The war horse galloped quickly, and stepped into the ravine at a moment's notice. The trench is about three feet deep, and after the horse's hooves step in, the horse's body is unbalanced, and the center of gravity moves forward, and it can't stabilize its body at all.

"Click"

The hooves of the horses snapped, and then their huge bodies fell to the ground.

"Boom"

The sound of constant impact resounded on the official road.

The sound even drowned out the sound of the rushing river.

The horses at the front rushed into the ravine, and the ones behind immediately followed suit. In an instant, the trenches caused the horses to sink into the sand, and they all fell to the ground.

The cavalry, which was in strict formation, was already in a 'disorder', and the situation was out of control
