Cao Jun's pontoon bridge construction is in full swing.

The Montenegrin army was under the orders of Zheng Gu and others, so they waited patiently and vigorously.

Just until nightfall.

Cao Jun's side was only building pontoon bridges, and did not use these pontoon bridges to launch the first wave of offensives, which made the three people who thought they had anticipated Zhang Liao's battle plan a little depressed.

After all, as previously analyzed.

At the moment, it is their side that is in a hurry to start the war and achieve the results, if it drags on for too long, and the food and grass are consumed too much.

There is no need for Cao Jun to make a move, I'm afraid that their side will already fall into chaos, and then get out of here.

At this moment, I saw Cao Jun building pontoon bridges one by one, and after they were built, they were piled aside, full of energy, but slow and methodical.

Su Gu said to the left and right a little depressedly.

"Now that the night is dark, even if you want to, you can't fight, and wait until tomorrow to see, if Cao Jun just wants to delay time, then our side will take the initiative to attack, and never leave them a chance!"

"Pass my order, transfer another part of the soldiers and horses, camp along the riverbank, focus on guarding against Cao's army crossing the river, send a few more teams, and keep an eye on the river at all times!"

At the command of the firm.

The Montenegrin Army quickly completed the strategic deployment.

The strategic center of gravity of the whole army is all concentrated along the Zhangshui River, that is, on the east side of the geographical direction.

correspondingly.

The defensive strength of the other three sides has naturally been weakened.

…………

It's night.

It is located in the territory of Shangdang County, Bingzhou.

Thirty miles west of Qingzhangshui.

An army is resting here at night.

Although only a few bonfires were set up in the huge camp, by the faint light of the fire.

It can still be seen that in addition to the soldiers who are sitting or lying on the ground and resting, there are also a large number of war horses accompanying the army in the camp.

This is a cavalry unit!

And at the moment under a big tree.

Cao Chun nibbled on the dry food in his hand while facing a white-robed young general sitting in front of him, and said in a calm and solemn voice.

"Zilong, crossing the river and bypassing this time and attacking the enemy's position is a matter of great importance."

"Whether our army can make a quick decision, achieve results as soon as possible, and return to Yecheng victoriously depends on what kind of results our cavalry battalion can achieve this time."

"Early tomorrow morning, you will lead 200 people to be the vanguard of the front army, and your task is to make a momentum first and break out of a gap."

"I will lead the main cavalry to follow you, as soon as the gap appears, I will immediately charge into it and smash the enemy's position to pieces!"

Heard Cao Chun's command.

Zhao Yun's face was full of excitement.

hurriedly put the dry food into his arms, then clapped his hands left and right, and then promised Cao Chun.

"The general entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, how dare Yun not do his best, tomorrow I will lead the army to be the vanguard, I will take the lead and kill him personally!"

Cao Chun nodded with satisfaction.

casually patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

Then he said in a solemn tone: "The general admires you a lot, and before leaving, let me take more care of you." ”

"I am the one who leads the troops in battle, and the greatest care I can do is to let you show more on the battlefield, so don't disappoint the general's expectations."

"As long as I break through the enemy formation this time, I will remember a great merit for you, and I will ask the general for a reward for you when I go back!"

Zhao Yun didn't say a word.

He thanked Cao Chun again.

……

After a few more words.

Zhao Yun got up from under the big tree and left.

While walking towards the position of his team, he took out the dry food in his arms, chewed and swallowed it.

Just while enjoying dinner.

Zhao Yun's thoughts were already flying.

At the beginning, after he led the crowd to defect to Cao Ang, because he was skilled in arching horses and good at horse warfare, he was arranged under Cao Chun, any military marquis, leading 200 people.

This crusade against the little black thief.

Zhao Yun is naturally also a member of the army.

I thought that the cavalry battalion might not be able to participate in this war until a few days later.

But he didn't expect to receive such a task on the first day he arrived on the bank of the Zhangshui River.

Taking advantage of the sight and attention of the Montenegrin army on the other side, they were attracted by the pontoon bridge project on their side.

The cavalry battalion quietly marched eastward, then went south along the Zhangshui, and then decisively crossed the river, making such a big circle before arriving at its present position.

That is, behind the Montenegrin Army.

After a night's rest, he was ready to kill the Black Mountain Thief by surprise tomorrow morning.

Expectedly.

If the plan goes well.

It is also very possible that the black mountain thief will be killed, and he will be turned on his back, or even defeated in a battle.

General Zhang Liao, who really deserves to be the number one general under General Cao, has such a quick wit that he has just come into contact with the enemy army and has already come up with a strategy to break the enemy.

Even General Zhang Liao is so powerful.

I really don't know what kind of strong skills General Cao, who is known as a famous general in the world, should have?

……

Come to think of it.

Zhao Yunsan swallowed the last bit of dry food in two bites, then clenched his fists with both hands, and swung his right hand down in the air violently, making a void hammer strike.

The blazing light in his eyes seemed to illuminate the already dark camp.

The excitement in his eyes was uncontrollably revealed, as if he wanted to ignite his body.

It has been a while since he defected to General Cao.

It's just that I haven't encountered any major events, so naturally I can't talk about making contributions.

But this is a different time.

This time, he will shine on the battlefield as a pioneer, as long as the performance is good enough, what awaits him will be to show his strength and ambition.

As for the group of Montenegrin thieves.

Zhao Yun, as a native of Changshan, can be said to have suffered deeply from Zhang Yan, and his hometown has repeatedly suppressed bandits, and it is because Zhang Yan is entrenched in the north that some bandits and bandits are derived.

This wave of Montenegrin thieves, although they have separated from Zhang Yan, they are from the same source, and Zhao Yun has no psychological burden at all to beat them.

After a little excitement.

Zhao Yun no longer wasted time.

Hurry back to the location of the part, and rest as much as possible before the dawn operation.

……

The next day dawned.

The sky will not be bright, only a faint glimmer of morning light, but compared to the dark night, there is a little more visibility after all.

And at this moment in the camp of the Montenegrin army.

In the tent, which was staggered all over the place, soldiers kept coming out after being dressed up.

One by one, sleepy-eyed and weak, they came to their respective posts, and waited for the morning rations to be distributed from above.

The reason why I got up so early.

Except that the present is a sensitive period for the confrontation between the two armies.

More importantly, it is because the Cao army on the other side of the strait has also begun to act.

I also got up early in the morning, and divided into several teams, carrying the pontoon bridges built yesterday in batches, all piled up on the riverbank.

It looks like it's going to be attacked at any time.

That's what happened.

Zheng Gu and the others did not dare to slack off.

They had no choice but to continue to increase their defenses on the banks of the river.

And in order to prevent Cao Jun from making a feint attack and delaying time, Zheng Gu also ordered that the pontoon bridge built on his side should also be piled up on the riverbank.

Wait until noon at the latest.

If Cao's army does not send out after noon, then no longer wait, and his own side will take the lead in attacking.

So.

The west bank of the entire Zhangshui.

It's already blocked water.

A large number of soldiers and equipment were crowded here, except for the soldiers who barely left a passage for the soldiers who conveyed the order, and the rest wanted to turn around, which was somewhat difficult.

……

"This group of bitches raised, to fight or not to fight, to give a happy word, has been dragging here, there is no movement at all, people are about to die!"

Yu Poison couldn't help complaining.

It's really this summer, whether it's inside or outside the tent, I can't find a cool place, but there is nothing to do, isn't that an ordeal?

After listening to this complaint.

Just as I was about to say something.

"Whew!!"

A sharp sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded above their heads, the sound was extremely harsh, and they could be heard clearly on the east and west banks of Zhangshui.

The crowd immediately changed color.

Just before they could react.

Then he heard a commotion on the river bank ahead, and at the same time a soldier hurried to the front.

"Generals, Cao Jun has moved!"

"The enemy is already connecting the pontoon bridges and pushing them into the water one after another!"

Interrupted by this.

The three of them also forgot that the sharp sound of the beep before, but they were wearing armor with excitement on their faces, and then holding weapons.

"It's good to come!"

"Order, the whole army is immediately ready to fight, let the archers go to the front, and the rest of the people wait to alternate positions, and respond in the back row!"

……

There was another extremely chaotic commotion.

The main thing is to swap positions in the front and rear, and in this cramped space, it is nothing short of a disaster.

The three of them, Yu, and Bai, looking at the chaotic scene in front of them, were all twitching frantically in their facial muscles, and they almost wanted to cover their eyes, and they couldn't bear to look at them directly.

But the only thing to be thankful for.

It's because there's this river blocking it.

Unless the enemy can fly over.

Otherwise, there is time for them to make adjustments.

However, just when the hearts of Zheng Gu and the others were slightly relieved, there was a sudden commotion in the rear.

This made the three of them frown and look back.

It's just that the disadvantages of the large and chaotic force are manifested here, the huge camp of more than 100,000 people, even if the vast majority of the troops are concentrated along the river, there are still a large number of soldiers in the rear.

If you don't stand on a high place, you can't see what's going on behind you at all, and you can't hear anything else.

The sound of people, the sound of running, and the sound of changing formations on the banks of the river, it can simply blow people up.

"Come on a few people, go to the back and see how it goes!"

There are still basic military qualities.

He had some foreboding in his heart.

Quickly sent a few guards to the back.

However, before these soldiers could be out of sight, a very clear and highly recognizable voice sounded in their ears.

"Kill !!"

The shouts of killing were extremely clear.

Suddenly, his eyes darkened.

"Quick, protect the rear!"

"There is an enemy who has taken the back road!"

But at this point, nothing helps.

…………

The horse stepped on the mountains and rivers of Qilian,

The soldiers rose up and the sky was not good.

At this moment, Zhao Yun held the reins in one hand, and held the spear tightly in the other, and the tip of the spear was headed, and I don't know how many people were picked up by him and flew to the ground, splashing a puff of blood mist.

And under the high-speed charge of the war horse.

The Black Mountain thieves who stood in front were either trampled or kicked away by the horses' hooves, or they were frightened by the huge and surging cavalry.

In short, under Zhao Yun's first charge.

An already very weak rear line.

It quickly evolved into a collapse.

White horse and silver gun, unparalleled in the world.

With Zhao Yun's body, the white robe that was extremely conspicuous on the battlefield was really a dazzling thunderbolt, and everywhere he went, it was harvested.

And the two hundred people who followed Zhao Yun and charged.

Although it can't compare to the majesty of Changshan Zhao Zilong.

But when the formation is formed and the formation is formed, the damage brought by it is naturally even more terrifying.

The vanguard army was invincible.

Tear apart the already weak line of defense.

This also provided an excellent opportunity for the main force of the cavalry battalion led by Cao Chun.

When even led the soldiers under his command to follow the route opened by Zhao Yun at the highest speed, a fierce man pierced into it and raged fiercely in the enemy's formation.

……

As the saying goes, defeat is like a mountain.

The more miscellaneous the army, the stronger the effect, and the less likely it is to be recovered.

Although the Montenegrin army pretended to be an army.

But in essence, it is a group of homeless grass robbers, swarming together, forming a rabble.

The critical point of will and morale is very low.

The cavalry led by Cao Chun charged left and right in the military formation, and the casualties that could be caused were very limited, after all, there was a large difference in the size of the forces of the two sides.

But the panic and panic caused by this.

But it is rapidly transmitting in all directions.

Especially the incessant shouts of killing, the trampling of horses' hooves that shook the four fields, and the wails of soldiers who were thrown or trampled by horses' hooves.

It's like a talisman.

In the hearts of everyone, it slammed one after another.

Faced with the combination of one man and one horse, these soldiers, who were originally just young and strong soldiers in the fields, seemed to have suffered from a phobia of giants in an instant.

Fenfen was scared and shivered.

Under this tidal wave.

Panic and chaos soon spread, and the heavy troops were always guarding the west bank of Zhangshui.

Disaster has struck!

……

It's not clear what's going on in the back at all.

I only know that the ghost cries wolf howl in the back.

There were also countless trampling of horses' hooves.

In the surge of people, it is not known at all whether there are thousands or tens of thousands of cavalry in the rear!

The unknown is always the most frightening!

In addition, the space along the river is very narrow at the moment, and if you want to scatter and escape, you can't do it at all.

As a result, a large number of soldiers were forced to drown into the river.

But it was at this time.

The main force of Cao's army on the other side of the river was launched.

The pontoon bridge, which had been built for a long time, finally came in handy, and it was laid vigorously on the opposite bank, while soldiers continued to advance along the pontoon.

And on the East Coast.

It's a line of archers.

They couldn't reach the other side of the river, but they could strike at the routed soldiers who had fallen into the river.

Under so many blows.

The original crystal clear water.

In an instant, it was dyed a dark red, and I don't know how many corpses were floating on the surface of the river.

At first, it was able to float downstream along the river, but over time, it soon accumulated in the river.

So much so that the flow of the river was blocked, and the scene was trembling.

……

The three of them huddled together.

There are also dozens of guards around to protect them.

The entire Montenegrin army, with the three of them being the most elite, faced the chaos in the camp and the might of the cavalry charge.

I didn't show too much panic.

It's just that at this moment, the faces of the three of them are almost the same.

It's all like ashes.

Because they know.

In its current form.

It's all over!

The stubbornness was even more serious, his whole face was as black as ink, his eyes were staring at the ground blankly, and his hands and feet were trembling.

Still muttering something to himself.

"It's over, it's all over!"

"This is an army of more than 100,000 people, just like this, after this battle, I will have nothing, I will be nothing!"

"Okay, what a great general!"

"What a straw bale, I am the straw bale, I am the stupidest idiot!"

Seeing that the solid is already like madness.

Yu and Bai, who were on the side, hurriedly shook them up frantically.

"Brother White Rabbit, on the battlefield, don't be depressed, this army of more than 100,000 is over, but you and I are still safe and stable."

"The top priority is to rush out of the battle as soon as possible, after the Cao army rushes and kills for a while, it will definitely stop fighting, and then we will gather the remnants of the army."

"After that, you can return to Yan Shuai's command, and you can still be at ease, why bother?!"

was reminded by the two of them.

It dawned on him.

"What the two virtuous brothers said is reasonable, now is not the time to be depressed, go, let's go quickly!"

The voice fell.

Several people immediately ordered the guards to form a formation and decisively rushed out towards the west.

……

Zhao Yun is still galloping on a horse at the moment.

Anyway, the main purpose of the cavalry to charge from behind.

It is to create chaos in enemy positions.

Just rush in all directions, you don't need to determine any direction, the bigger the noise, the better.

Just after a few laps back and forth.

Zhao Yun set his sights on a group of people.

Compared to the other miscellaneous soldiers, who could only wrap themselves in rags and carry bamboo spears and stone farm tools, this group was well-equipped.

Not only more than a dozen of them were on horseback.

There were also dozens of people around, wearing light armor and holding weapons that had been made out of the law.

Although there are no flags around this team, it is based on this appearance.

Zhao Yun can conclude.

I caught a school of big fish!

Without saying a word, he beckoned to the brothers behind him: "Everyone listen to me, follow my direction, and charge!" ”

……

Under the orders of Zhao Yun.

The two hundred men he led.

Immediately, it turned into a sharp knife and plunged straight ahead, and behind Zhao Yun and the others, there was a large number of main cavalry forces wandering on the battlefield.

After all, it is not required to rush in which direction.

Case.

Follow the troops in front and you're done.

And so it goes.

The small cavalry force led by Zhao Yun suddenly turned into a torrent and rushed towards the front.

And what Zhao Yun was targeting at this moment was the three of Zhenggu who had made plans to escape from the battlefield immediately.

At first, they didn't notice anything wrong.

However, with the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer.

The three of them glanced at it.

Immediately, the soul of the dead was shocked, and the heart was shocked.

"Quick! Get out! ”

His voice was hoarse, his hair was open, and he was already like a madman, and he had no manners at all.

However, he could not wait for his troops to move.

Zhao Yun had already killed him.

……

"Poof!"

The high-speed charging war horse crashed into the front of several personal soldiers.

The spear in Zhao Yun's hand turned into a white light.

It fell again with the sound of the tip of the gun entering the flesh.

The next second, it passed through a person's neck.

appeared on the other side.

Then the tip of the spear was bloody, and the castration continued, and the man sitting on the horseback was pierced together.

And the face that fell to the ground.

vaguely revealed the unwilling expression of Su Gu, as well as the great panic at the moment of life and death.

I have to say.

Zhao Yun's target was very accurate.

One shot killed the little black thief, the first of the three leaders.

And after killing the enemy with one shot, shocking the whole audience.

Yu Poison and Bai Huan dared to continue to run, and they all rolled off their horses, and surrendered to Zhao Yun by lying on the ground, just hoping to spare their lives.

"Junhou, General Cao has an order, immediately start to surrender, and those who fall on the ground will be spared from killing!"

As a herald beside Cao Chun rushed over, Zhao Yun immediately got the order.

It's not too late.

The voices of "those who surrender on the ground will not be killed" and "those who lay down their arms will not die" resounded throughout the battlefield.

……

The battle lasted until the evening.

With Cao's army winning a complete victory, only paying the price of less than 100 casualties, he took more than 100,000 troops of the Montenegrin army in one fell swoop.

Even the three leaders of the Montenegrin Army.

Both were killed and captured.

It can be described as an astonishing and jaw-dropping record.

Among the more than 100,000 troops that were routed, the number of those who died in cavalry charges and arrows, as well as in the white-knuckle battles on pontoon bridges, was about one or two thousand.

And there are about more than 10,000 people who escaped from the battlefield.

The rest is all here.

Other words.

With a force of 15,000 troops, the Cao army directly captured more than 100,000 Montenegrin troops with less than 100 casualties.

This is against the sky.

It is equivalent to one person capturing ten people alive.

This is the battle in the era of cold weapons, and this is the elite regular army fighting the homeless grass bandits.

It's an exaggeration, but it's by no means out of line!

And the reason why such a brilliant victory can be achieved is also inseparable from Zhang Liao's plan to attack the east and the west.

The pretense of crossing the river to attack attracted the enemy's full attention and caused the Montenegrin army to shift the focus of its defense to the riverbank.

It further leads to congestion in the front and air defense in the rear.

This top-heavy formation, for the cavalry, is simply a grassland where they can charge wantonly, and let them mow the grass without a match.

Expectedly.

If Zhang Liao doesn't use the plan of attacking the east and the west.

If you are entangled with the enemy in Zhangshui, then if this battle is fought, you will have to lose more than 1,000 people.

The results will never be so rich!

…………

The post-war clean-up was very complicated.

The corpses on the battlefield were to be collected and burned to avoid the plague, and carried downstream along the river.

At the same time these captured remnants.

It must also be closely guarded.

These young and strong people are all living forces, and they are a good resource for the Cao family.

The next expansion of the army, as well as the military cantonment, will depend on the contribution of this group.

Besides.

That is to collect the grain and grass carried by the Black Mountain Army, as well as the assets of the three people.

After all, the war cannot be fought in vain.

The biggest takeaway is naturally the youthfulness of the year.

But these zero corners, that can't leak through the fingertips, right?

As for the rout soldiers who fled from the battlefield, Zhang Liao also specially ordered the cavalry to disperse to chase and capture, and capture them alive as much as possible.

After all, more than 10,000 people are mixed in the vicinity of this Sheguo County, which is likely to have a bad impact on the local security, and is even likely to re-gather into bandits.

Therefore, it is necessary to eliminate future troubles.

Just these post-war clean-ups.

It's essential to last a day and a night.

And in between this gap.

Zhang Liao also wrote a battle report by hand, and immediately sent someone to Yecheng to report the good news to General Cao Ang.

With the war report arrived.

The world shook too!
