Chapter 70: The Iron Carriage Divine Might

Cao Xiu led the tiger and leopard cavalry to rush to Liu Bei's banner, Cao Ren, Han Hao and others saw the tiger and leopard riding suddenly, and knew what they were going to do, so they stormed the Han army and cooperated with the tiger and leopard cavalry.

The tiger and leopard rode like a spike and quickly killed Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Huang Zhong were ordered not to divide their troops to block it, and concentrate on dealing with the Cao army in front of them.

The white-eared elite soldiers formed a formation to resist. As soon as the two armies clashed, blood splattered, several white-eared elite soldiers were knocked over, and several people led by the tiger and leopard cavalry were also stabbed down.

Cao Xiu understood that he had a very short time, once Liu Bei withstood his own impact, the offensive of the tiger and leopard cavalry slowed down, and the surrounding Han troops would rush to support Liu Bei, and he would have no chance to break in again, now was the time to use his life!

Cao Xiu personally led the charge and slashed the white-eared elite soldiers. The tacit cooperation of the white-eared elite soldiers, chopping the horse's legs, stabbing Cao soldiers, and raising shields to block the fall also have the power to fight back.

Cao Xiu interspersed the attack, using the powerful power of the horse to make a condescending momentum, and the first few tigers and leopards rode through the formation of the white-eared elite soldiers, and suddenly rushed to ten steps away from Liu Bei.

Fa Zheng was already sweating profusely and looked nervously. Liu Bei suddenly said: "Look at the banner!" After saying that, he only heard a "ride" and rode out.

Fa Zheng and the guards haven't reacted yet. Liu Bei has already gone out! Liu Bei drew out his double-strand sword and went straight to the tiger and leopard at the head.

The two armies mostly used long weapons to fight, and too few swords were used, and the first was the problem of length. The second is that the long weapon can be held with both hands, and the strength is greater. Third, because long weapons are simple to use, piercing people is easy to kill. The sword is tricky, holding the sword with one hand, the strength is poor, and if you want to kill, you must hit the fatal place!

Liu Bei took the tiger and leopard ride in front directly, and the tiger and leopard rider didn't expect Liu Bei to dare to send it up. Liu Bei rushed to the front, and the double-strand sword was merciless, stabbing the neck of the tiger and leopard. The tiger and leopard did not have time to reflect that they were stabbed and fell off their horses.

Liu Bei didn't stop, waving his two swords, blocking and slashing, with tacit understanding. Kill three people in a row.

Cao Jun, a tiger and leopard rider, was overjoyed to see Liu Bei come out, and went straight to Liu Bei. Raise your spear and stab it.

Liu Bei swung his sword with his left hand and sent the gun out. The right hand slashed at Captain Cao's arm. Captain Cao hurriedly withdrew his gun. Liu Bei's left hand stabbed Captain Cao in the cheek, but Captain Cao was not as dexterous as Liu Bei's double swords, so he hurriedly abandoned his gun and drew his sword.

Liu Bei deceived him and stabbed several swords, and Captain Cao showed his flaws and was killed by Liu Bei with a sword.

After Liu Bei finished killing, he didn't stop, and returned to the big flag. Fa Zheng was already stunned, like a dream.

Liu Bei saw Fa Zheng's appearance and smiled: "Filial piety, I, Liu Bei, started with military merits at the beginning." I haven't lost my ability to save my life over the years. I just saw the right time to make a move! Yes, I haven't regressed yet! ”

Fa Zheng then recovered: "The lord must not be in danger again. There is no reason for the lord to bet his life on these people. If Cao Cao comes to fight, the rest are not worth it! ”

Liu Bei glanced at Fa Zheng and said, "Filial piety is the word of Jinshi. I understand. It's just that Cao Cao won't look for me alone! ”

Fa Zhengdao: "Because Cao Cao will not do anything big." ”

Liu Bei rushed into battle just now, although he only killed four people. But it shocked the power of the white-eared elite soldiers, and everyone fought desperately, it was completely a posture of changing their lives, and I would drag you to death.

Cao Xiu was dragged and could no longer move forward. Cao Cao saw it from afar and smiled: "Liu Xuande is desperate!" Summoned the order, shouted to me that Liu Bei's formation had been broken, and Liu Bei's army was disturbed. And prepare torches, I'm going to fight at night! ”

As soon as the words fell, a horse rushed forward, breathless and said, "King, the big thing is not good." General Cao Hong did not block the iron chariot soldiers. The Iron Riders are here to kill! ”

Cao Cao's eyes widened and said, "Fifteen thousand people can't hold the iron chariot soldiers!" ”

Zhang Ren's office was originally confronted by Cao Hong, and there was nothing to do, Zhang Ren moved slowly, stopped and stopped, and Cao Hong was nearby to monitor.

After Cao Zhen received the order to help, things changed! Cao Zhen led the cavalry away.

Zhang Ren discussed with Kou Feng, the commander of the crossbow soldiers: "General Kou, the cavalry of the Cao army left suddenly, I'm afraid things have changed." Maybe Cao Cao and Liu Yuanjun are fighting and rushed to support!

We can't afford to run out again. Cao's cavalry left, leaving only 10,000 soldiers and horses. We have to find a way to support Liu Yuanjun. ”

Kou Feng said: "With this intention, how to act?" ”

Zhang Ren said: "General Kou, you and I are divided into two ways. One led his troops to engage Cao's army. The other man went to the aid of the lord! Do you see the horses in my ranks?

I brought six hundred horses. Cao's army charged into battle and captured nearly a thousand horses. We put our horses on the chariots, one for every two horses, and one for each cart with five soldiers.

In this way, 4,000 people were divided and drove an iron car into the back of Cao's army to support Liu Yuanjun. Originally, the cavalry of the Cao army was here, and we had movements, and before we arrived at the battlefield, the cavalry would break us all. The departure of the cavalry was an opportunity! ”

Kou Feng said: "It can't be that Cao Jun deliberately lured us out of the battle!" ”

Zhang Rendao: "There is such a possibility, I have thought about it, if it is true, then Cao Jun, who exchanged 4,000 people for 10,000 people in front of him, will not suffer!"

It's just that we dug a trench in the south direction of the Cao army, and it is not easy to rush out, so we can only bypass the trench from the north, and the Cao army will inevitably block it, and we need to make it impossible for the Cao army to be separated first! ”

Kou Feng said: "In this case, I will go to charge the battle, and you command the soldiers and horses to drag this Cao army!" ”

Zhang Ren said: "I'll go!" You don't know how to direct a moving iron car. I'm better than you.

I know you're afraid that Cao Jun has a plan to come forward, but if I lead it, I can command the plan to retreat, and you are not as good as me! ”

Kou Feng lowered his head and thought, "Okay! ”

Zhang Ren said: "Thousands of Wuxi volunteers in Maleonn in the west are waiting there, and if there is an emergency, you can set off beacon fires." They'll come to their aid! ”

Kou Feng responded: "Okay, I know." ”

The two of them were arranged separately, Kou Feng led 7,000 iron chariot soldiers, and 3,000 crossbow soldiers were on standby in the formation.

Cao Hong stood on a high platform and saw the changes in the formation. Cao Hong ordered everyone to prepare for battle and form a formation.

Kou Feng took the lead in leading the troops to kill, and Cao Hong was well prepared and not afraid. Yu Ban's 5,000 reinforcements are still on the way and have not yet arrived.

Kou Feng walked around the formation. Cao Hong saw that the Han army was out of the battle, and he couldn't ask for it, so he retreated step by step, trying to lure the Han army away from the iron car formation, and waited for the forbidden reinforcements to arrive to flank the Han army.

Kou Feng wanted to keep Cao Hong from hindering Zhang Ren as much as possible. So follow step by step.

Zhang Ren saw that Cao Hong and Kou Feng were far away. At the sound of an order, the iron chariot soldiers harnessed their horses. Move a road and gallop away.

Cao Hong was shocked when he saw the iron chariot soldiers heading in the direction of the battle, and he had no time to stop him. The iron cart was pulled by horses and was fast.

Cao Hong ordered Cao Jun's generals to rush to stop him, and Kou Feng stepped forward to block it.

Cao Hong did not delay any longer, and commanded 5,000 soldiers and horses to crash into the soldiers and horses led by Kou Feng. The remaining 5,000 men went to stop them.

Cao Hong ordered everyone to throw the spear and halberd in their hands at Zhang Ren to block it.

Zhang Ren suddenly shouted: "A hundred cars on the periphery don't have to go south, rush to Cao Hong, and cooperate with General Kou to kill the enemy!" ”

The iron cart that approached Cao Bing turned around. The Han army slammed into the approaching Cao Hongjun, causing chaos. Cao Hong couldn't stop it. Hurriedly reported to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao learned that hundreds of iron carts had crashed into him from behind, and gritted his teeth and said, "Order Zhu Ling to lead his troops to withdraw to stop Zhang Ren." The rest of the soldiers and horses tried their best to defeat Liu Bei! The herald hurried to give the order.

It's just that it seems to be a little late, and Cao Cao saw the iron car. There were five people standing on each iron car. Spears, halberds, bows and arrows, crossbows, swords and shields.

Zhu Ling divided the troops and horses, hurriedly arranged the formation, and the two of them received the order.

Jiang Ji persuaded: "King, let Cao Zhen's cavalry block it!" ”

Cao Cao said: "Now Cao Zhen is the key to victory and defeat, and he can't be withdrawn." "From a distance, I saw that the attack of the tiger and leopard cavalry was blocked, and it had been forced out, and the surrounding Han troops also came to support.

Cao Cao said: "Zhongkang, you lead the rest of the tigers and leopards to ride forward to stop it." Don't worry about me, Cao Xiu's attack was blocked and he couldn't take Liu Bei, so I ordered him to withdraw to protect me. You can go with confidence! ”

Xu Chu made a dull promise. Zhang Ren saw that Cao Jun noticed him and shouted: "Soldiers, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road, they are only allowed to advance, there is no way to retreat, scatter, rush!" ”

Xu Chu led the cavalry to block, and the crossbowmen on the car waited for the tiger and leopard to ride close, and the crossbow was fired, and the tiger and leopard rider were injured seven or eight times out of ten. The archers of the iron chariots specialize in shooting horses.

It's just that repeater fires take a lot of effort to reload, and archers shoot arrows mostly avoided.

After the tiger and leopard rode closer, the disadvantage of the iron car began to show at this time. Zhang Ren ordered the formation of soldiers to disperse, forming a fan shape and crashing into Cao's army.

The iron car that had pulled away from the iron car lost its formation. Xu Chu commanded the tiger and leopard cavalry to give full play to its advantages, relying on flexibility, going out left and right, picking up the Han army, and hitting the axle down, and it was overturned for a while. The Haw Par rider first knocked down the iron car in front of him, and one car fell to the ground to hinder the behind.

Zhang Ren's strict military discipline made the iron car soldiers continue to move forward desperately, Zhang Ren's order flag began to wave, and the iron car soldiers who received the instructions immediately began to adjust, and the skirmishers began to adjust the finished glyph like the iron car, and the long Ge of the iron car stretched out from each other to cross between each of the three iron cars.

In this way, the arrival of the Cao army's cavalry will be attacked by the front and back together, and the space for the Cao army to gallop will be reduced.

Xu Chu adjusted the deployment, the tiger and leopard cavalry only attacked the iron chariot soldiers on the periphery, and the rest of the cavalry fired arrows at the iron chariot soldiers in the middle, the iron chariot soldiers raised their shields to parry, and the archers returned fire.

However, due to the galloping of the iron car, it is extremely unstable and not conducive to aiming. Xu Chu destroyed more than 400 iron cars, and the rest of the iron cars were close to the battlefield where the two armies of Cao and Han were fighting.

Zhu Ling led his troops to block, and the formation had not yet been formed. However, he saw that the iron car was running at full speed, and ordered the soldiers to take off their iron armor, tie it together, and throw it in front of the iron car.

The high-speed galloping iron car encountered obstacles, the wheels were padded and flew up with a bang, the axle could not bear it at all, and immediately broke, and dozens of iron cars in the front row were scrapped on the spot. Zhang Ren's car was not spared.

Zhang Ren was very good, immediately jumped out of the car, untied a horse, jumped on horseback, and continued to wave the command flag.

Under the command of Zhang Ren, the soldiers and horses on the front iron car jumped out of the car and moved away from the iron armor with their lives. The iron cart entered through several gaps.

With their well-trained and energetic momentum, the iron chariot soldiers rushed to the front of Zhu Ling's array. Zhang Ren waved the command flag again, and suddenly several arrows flew straight towards Zhang Ren, Zhang Ren didn't have time to pull up the horse violently, except for one nailed to Zhang Ren's arm, the rest of the arrows were nailed to the horse.

Zhang Ren understood that Cao Jun had already seen that he was the commander and wanted to kill him. The iron chariot soldiers also saw it, and immediately three of them arrived at Zhang Ren's place.

Zhang Ren flew quickly and boarded an iron car. Zhu Ling secretly felt sorry. The iron chariot soldiers slammed into Zhu Lingjun's formation, and Zhu Lingjun's army was quickly crushed and began to be chaotic.

Zhang Ren waved the order flag, and the last remaining sixty iron cars crashed into Cao's army, which was besieging Feng Xi's troops on the left flank of the Han army.
