002, heavy cavalry rushed to kill

Knock knock knock!!

At noon, on the east bank of the river, the cold wind blew the flag, and a dense drum beat sounded in Cao Cao's military camp.

"Open the door!"

With a loud shout from the head of the army, the gate of the wooden gate of the camp slowly opened.

Cao Xin rode a red horse, carried a large iron spear of more than 100 catties, and led a thousand soldiers and horses from the headquarters to snake out of the walled gate.

I saw that his face was like a crown of jade, his eyebrows were handsome, he was wearing bright silver armor and a red cloak, majestic and heroic.

He was followed by eight generals, including Dian Wei, Zhang Baiqi, Liao Hua, Pei Yuanshao, and Li Dayan.

Zhang Baiqi and seven others were the leaders of the Yellow Turban Army who he captured when he was a bandit in Xuzhou.

After three years of conquest, all of them have become good at fighting, second- and third-rate generals.

Dian Wei is the guard he found after joining Cao Boss's camp, and he is currently Sima of the other department, holding a pair of big iron halberds, a top general.

The rest of the soldiers are also elite soldiers who have fought many battles with him, and they can be ten with one, which is why he dared to stand up to meet Zhang Xiu.

When the soldiers left the camp and marched less than a mile, they encountered Zhang Xiu's vanguard army, and the distance between the two sides was less than a mile.

Looking from afar, Zhang Xiu's army lined up on the bank of the river, waving flags, covering the sky and the sun, a large area of Wuyang and Wuyang, and the formation was magnificent.

"Phew!"

Cao Xin reined in his horse and ordered his subordinates to reorganize the cavalry and set up an attack formation.

"Uncle Six!"

Cao Ang and Xiahou Shang rushed over.

Cao Ang is Cao Cao's eldest son, 21 years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a strong body.

Xiahou Shang is Xiahou Yuan's nephew, 20 years old, short and strong, with huge strength in both arms, and can lift 500 catties of Dading.

These two people wanted to make meritorious contributions, and took the initiative to ask to be backups, but they couldn't get rid of them.

"Sixth uncle, Zhang Xiu has 5,000 people, and we only have 1,000, how are you going to fight?"

Cao Aung Lema asked.

Cao Xin didn't have any good ideas, "Zixiu doesn't need to worry, you take the infantry to sweep the formation behind, and I will personally lead the 100 heavy cavalry of the headquarters to smash Zhang Xiu's army and kill Zhang Xiu." ”

"Sixth uncle, I have twenty cavalry, I'll go with you."

"I'll go too!"

Xiahou Shang shouted with a long-handled axe.

"Don't even think about it, according to what I said, you will lead the infantry to press the formation in the back, and I will lead the heavy cavalry to assault Zhang Xiu's army, and when I defeat Zhang Xiu's army, you will follow up and encircle it, understand? If you dare to disobey orders, don't play with me next time. ”

Cao Xinxin's spear tapped the armor of the two.

Although he is the same age as Cao Ang, he is Cao Teng's righteous son, Cao Cao's sixth brother, older than Cao Ang and Xiahou Shang, and his strength is stronger than the two, and the two dare not disobey.

"Hehe, Sixth Uncle, what if you lose?"

Xiahou Shang grinned.

"Don't talk nonsense, how could I possibly lose."

Cao Xin glared at him and waved his hand to tell the two of them to get out of here.

Considering that Cao Ang was not killed in the battle of Wancheng, Cao Xin called Dian Wei and instructed him to take the elite infantry of his headquarters to protect Cao Ang closely, and not let that guy run around on the battlefield.

Dian Wei took the order and led people away.

"General, the cavalry is in order, and it's time to act."

Zhang Baiqi, the leader of the cavalry of the headquarters, shouted.

Zhang Baiqi is a rare cavalry talent in the Yellow Turban Army, 38 years old this year, can be good at fighting, was caught by Cao Xin twice in Xuzhou before being subdued, and is currently a thief captain, is the highest official under him.

Cao Xin rode forward and walked to the cavalry with a spear,

"Brothers, have you eaten them all?"

"Eat!"

The cavalry shouted.

"Haha, just eat it, let's take a look over there, that is Zhang Xiu's military formation, the enemy in this battle, they have 5,000 people, and the legend is that it is the most elite unit of the Xiliang Army, are you afraid?"

"Don't be afraid!"

"5,000 people are counted as a ball, even if 50,000 people come, Lao Tzu will also play."

"General, hurry up, my broadsword is already hungry and thirsty."

The cavalry warriors laughed.

"Well said brothers! The Wancheng army is considered a bullshit elite, only our Langya army is the real elite, brothers, we are here today for only one purpose, that is, to defeat the Wancheng army, play the prestige of our Langya army, and let the world know the strength of our Langya army, do you have confidence? ”

Cao Xin shouted.

"Yes! Yes! Yes! ”

The cavalry warriors roared loudly.

"Brothers, let's go!"

Cao Xin waved a big iron spear and led more than 100 horsemen under his command, forming a triangular pyramid formation, and the arrow pointed directly at Zhang Xiu's army array.

This Langya cavalry is a heavy cavalry he spent a lot of money to build, the soldiers are wearing two layers of fish scale armor, the mounts are all tall horses from the Western Regions, the horses match the saddle, and the key parts are covered with iron armor.

Although it is temporarily inferior to Li Shimin's Xuanjia cavalry and Jin Wushu's Tiefutu, in the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, few cavalry can compare.

This is also the main reason why he dares to hit more with less.

——

"Archer prepare!"

"Archer ready!!"

On the opposite battlefield, seeing the Cao army's cavalry returning, Zhang Xiu's generals commanded thousands of archers and turned on the shooting mode.

"Shoot!!"

At the sound of an order, thousands of arrows were fired, and thousands of arrows rushed into the sky, and then quickly fell, falling like black rain, shooting at the rushing cavalry.

It's just that the accuracy and strength of the upward firing mode are too poor, and after two rounds of shooting, only three horses were frightened and fell behind.

Before the third round began, the armored cavalry rushed to the front.

"Armored cavalry?"

In the military formation, Zhang Xiu frowned, seeing that the other party was waving the banners of 'Langya' and 'Cao', he wondered in his heart, could it be Cao Thief's tiger and leopard ride?

"Whoever comes, the thief will report the name."

"Whoever comes, the thief will report his name."

A group of soldiers shouted.

"Langya Cao Xin, I am here to marry Mrs. Zou, where is Mrs. Zou?"

Cao Xin shouted loudly.

"Where is Mrs. Zou?!"

Cao Xin's knights shouted.

"Special mother, Hu Che'er Niu Lu, go up and hack him to death for me."

Zhang Xiu roared angrily.

"Yes, General!"

The generals Hu Che'er and Niu Lu clenched their fists to receive the order, and left the two wings of the army formation with the cavalry of their headquarters.

There are more than 400 cavalry in the two teams, all of which are elite cavalry of the Xiliang Army, who have participated in the plundering of Luoyang and Chang'an, and their combat effectiveness is extremely strong.

"Kill !!"

The Xiliang cavalry rushed out of half a mile with great momentum, and collided fiercely with the galloping Langya cavalry, and the people turned on their backs.

"Get out of here!"

Cao Xin shouted, his body was full of blood and qi, brandishing a cone-headed spear more than a foot long, and met the advance of the enemy cavalry.

I saw that his spear was like a dragon, and he picked up Niu Lu, the cavalry general of the enemy's left team, with one shot, and then swept left and right, killing a bloody road.

Under his spear, the enemy cavalry was picked up one by one, hitting the cavalry in the rear, and it was a mess.

In a moment, Cao Xin's spear flew more than 40 people, chiseled through the opponent's cavalry phalanx, and in front of him was where Zhang Xiu's Chinese army was.

"Zhang Xiu, take the head!"

"Cao thief, Hugh is rampant."

Zhang Xiu ignored the dissuasion of his subordinates, brandished a 62-pound tiger-headed golden gun, and patted his horse to meet Cao Xin.

"Well done! Overlord unarmoured! ”

Cao Xin shouted angrily, brandished his spear and swept towards Zhang Xiu fiercely, fast and ruthless, and a cold light flashed at the head of the spear.

And Zhang Xiu raised the gun with his right hand, blocked, and picked it open, and the action was done in one go.

"Eat me one more shot! Flying dragon in the sky! ”

Cao Xin swung his gun and slashed.

Wow!!

The two spears slammed into each other.

Mars in all directions.

Zhang Xiu's body shook, the tiger's mouth cracked, and the spear almost came out of his hand.

"Hiss~ What a great effort this dog day."

After all, Zhang Xiu is a famous general, and his actual combat experience is not inferior to Cao Xin, after losing a move, he quickly turned the head of the gun and stabbed towards Cao Xin's chest at an astonishing speed, drawing a gun shadow in the air.

The shadow of this gun is like the tail feathers of a phoenix, the light and shadow are staggered, and the head of the gun flashes a seven-point cold star, which is sharp and compelling, this trick is Zhang Xiu's long-famous bird and phoenix marksmanship.

Cao Xin was not bad for a while, and the battle armor on his arm and chest was pierced, revealing his strong muscles.

"Cao thief, how is this trick of grandpa?"

Zhang Xiu sneered.

"Good marksmanship, but worse than Lao Tzu."

Cao Xin shouted, 'Sweeping thousands of troops', swinging his gun and sweeping straight slashing, although the action was simple and rough, but the move opened and closed, and the momentum was strong and heavy, making it difficult for people to parry.

And Zhang Xiu saw the move, avoided the real and the false, the gun was light and agile, and the marksmanship of a hundred birds and the phoenix was very skillful.

The two fought for more than 20 rounds, Cao Xin had three more bloody wounds on his body, Zhang Xiu's hands were cracked, blood was dripping, and his arms kept trembling.

"Xiu'er, do you dare to fight again?"

Cao Xin immediately laughed.

"Cao thief, die for Lao Tzu!"

Zhang Xiu shouted angrily and slapped the horse to fight again.

Cao Xin swept with his gun, and his moves remained unchanged.

Zhang Xiu sneered, this kid will only do these two times, this time Lao Tzu wants you to look good, he dismantled the block with both guns, and then used a hundred birds to assassinate the phoenix.

Wow~ The two guns collided again, causing dazzling sparks and crackling sounds in the air, and the ears of several soldiers around were shocked with blood.

"Kill!"

Cao Xin suddenly shouted violently, and threw several shots at Zhang Xiu in a row.

Zhang Xiu raised his spear to resist, the spear bent violently inward, and with a bang, the spear came out of his hand.

"No !!"

Zhang Xiu's eyes widened in disbelief, and before he could react, his chest was swept by Cao Xin's spear, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his horse, flying upside down from the horse.

"Save the General!"

The general, Hu Che'er, slapped his horse and stepped forward, wielding a crescent halberd to take Cao Xin's iron spear, and the nearby cavalry and the infantry behind also rushed over, escorting Zhang Xiu and slowly retreating.

"Brothers, kill with me!"

Cao Xin roared, led dozens of armored cavalry, covered all the way, and ploughed a bloody path on the battlefield.

"Hey~, the sixth uncle is too fierce."

On the hillside in the distance, Cao Ang gasped.

I saw Cao Xin with a hundred cavalry all the way to suppress Zhang Xiu's 5,000 troops, first destroying the opponent's 500 cavalry, and then entering Zhang Xiu's infantry formation, so that the opponent had no power to fight back.

"The heavy cavalry is really useful, and when I return to Xuchang, I will also form a team of heavy cavalry."

Xiahou Shang said with envy on his face.

"A team of heavy cavalry needs several million guan, do you have the money?"

Cao Ang also thought about forming armored cavalry, but the cost of smelting iron armor was too great, Yanzhou's military budget was insufficient, and he couldn't afford to play if he wanted to, and only Cao Xin could do business to raise heavy cavalry.

Woo woo woo~

The horn of the charge sounded on the battlefield.

"Soldiers, follow me!"

Cao Ang drew his glittering sword and rushed to the battlefield.

"Kill!!"
