Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 791 Casting (4000)

"what happened?!"

Zhang Xiu was also shocked at this moment.

He had just set up the encirclement formation, knowing that the matter was half done, and seeing Cao Chun and Cao Chun leading the army out to break through the siege, and when he was planning to order people to intercept and kill the Quartet, he thought about it, but he didn't expect it What's more, his Chinese army got into chaos first?
And it's not just chaos, although he hasn't figured out what happened for the time being, but he can fully see that his army has been severely damaged, and it may be difficult to organize again in a short time!

As we all know, once the casualties of an army exceed 30%, it basically loses its combat effectiveness completely.

What this is talking about is still the kind of well-trained elite troops, but if it is replaced by some troops with insufficient combat literacy and strict military discipline, in actual combat, even if the casualties do not reach 10%, they will be completely defeated. Without an effective counterattack, the final result must be the enemy's overwhelming power.

Now Zhang Xiu's Chinese army has a total of [-] people, and he has distributed the remaining soldiers and horses to various places in the encirclement formation, resulting in a considerable degree of dispersion of troops.

And it was just such a dazzling effort just now.

Zhang Xiuqi looked back at the entire Chinese army on a tall horse, and saw that the casualties of the Chinese army had exceeded 10%. Most importantly, the remaining soldiers and horses were completely in chaos. They were all crowded by soldiers fleeing in all directions and walked forward uncontrollably.

The current Chinese army is also the elite under Zhang Xiu's command, and its combat effectiveness may not even be as good as a mob that has just been formed...

"Mr. Jia!"

Zhang Xiu began to panic, and quickly looked at Jia Xu beside him.

"This……"

Jia Xu's old face is wrinkled like a bitter melon. He is only about 50 years old now, but his wrinkled face is older than Yu Ji's.

Zhang Xiu asked him, and he wanted to ask Zhang Xiu what was going on!
He thinks that his strategy has reached a perfect level, and he has ordered people to investigate the situation of the Cao army in the city several times. He knows that most of these Cao troops have appeared more terrifying "battle screams" than his previous plan. Under such circumstances, if it is not [-]% already the highest, he can even pat Zhang Xiu's chest and raise the odds of winning this battle to [-]%, [-]%, and it will be no problem to be higher, because this is already a certain victory The situation, even if all the accidents he can imagine occur together, it will not change.

But the "accident" at this moment was something Jia Xu never expected!
What is the situation?
Why did the most elite Chinese army start to collapse from the inside first, why did such a degree of casualties appear in a blink of an eye, and what happened just now? !

"Report!"

A general in the rear of the palace finally squeezed into Zhang Xiu's side, and reported out of breath, "General, a cao army of hundreds of people appeared behind our army... hiss!"

As a result, he was only halfway through the sentence, and the general immediately changed his expression and let out a cry of pain, then turned around and kicked the soldier next to him fiercely, cursing while kicking: "You're looking for death! Get out of here! Fuck you!" You don't have eyes, you touched the wound on Nai Weng's back!"

It was also when the general turned around.

Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu finally saw what was going on behind the general. They saw that near the general's back waist, two places had been stained red with blood.

But the strange thing is that the clothes in these two places did not show any signs of damage, as if the wound also appeared from the inside out...

Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu looked suspicious.

It wasn't the first day they had been on the battlefield, and they had seen countless weapons and wounds, but at this moment they couldn't see what kind of weapon this general was injured on and why.

Fortunately, after the general finished scolding people, he immediately revealed a small thing he was holding in his hand, and while supporting his waist, he presented the small thing in front of Zhang Xiu and said, "General, the weapon used by Cao Jun It's very strange, they didn't take the initiative to charge and kill our army, nor did they shoot arrows at our army, they just threw a strange iron ball into our army formation in turn, and the iron ball would explode immediately when it fell into our army formation , Countless such small needles were shot from it, and the soldiers were unable to dodge enough to be hit by that small needle, and even the last general was shot by the small needle, and the small needle is still hidden in the body and cannot be taken out!"

"Small needles?"

Zhang Xiu took the small needle that was only half an inch long from the general's hand. Seeing this, Jia Xu hurried over, but maybe her eyes were a little presbyopic due to her age, but she could only stretch her neck and squint her eyes to check. .

"Mr. Jia, you are well-informed, do you know what kind of weapon this is?"

Zhang Xiu simply handed the small needle to Jia Xu, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"This……"

Jia Xu shook his head, frowned and said, "I've lived most of my life, but I've never seen such a weapon, but martial arts, if Cao Jun has such a weapon..."

"how?"

Zhang Xiu hurriedly asked.

The current situation has undergone tremendous changes due to the emergence of this Cao army and this strange weapon. Although it has not yet reached the point where the general situation is over, seeing that the Chinese army is in chaos, how can Zhang Xiu feel at ease? Already panicked.

"The matter has come to this point, we are on the verge of riding a tiger, we must take Cao Cao at all costs, but at this moment we can no longer decapitate him, we must keep his life as a hostage, only in this way can we have a chance of survival."

Jia Xu said.

"Mr. Jia, you said earlier that you have a [-]% chance of winning, so I acted according to your plan. How could it be like this now..."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiu was about to cry.

After all, he is still young, and this army was only inherited from his uncle half a year ago. Whether it is the ability and psychological quality of the leader, he is far behind the famous general who has experienced many battles.

the most important is.

In the blink of an eye, "[-]% chance of winning" turned into "may have a chance of survival". This gap is not to mention how big it is, but it is also a difference between heaven and earth. Zhang Xiu really can't accept it.

"Martial arts, don't hesitate anymore!"

Jia Xu had no choice but to raise his hand and pinched Zhang Xiu's shoulder to help him stabilize, looked into his eyes and shouted, "Before our army is completely defeated, we will immediately order an all-out attack. Cao Cao must be taken down, otherwise we will be defeated." That's too late!"

……

At this moment.

"!!!"

Zhang Xi's troops outside the encirclement were also shocked.

Almost everyone was staring at the twenty Huren Army soldiers in front of the formation with indescribable complex expressions in their eyes, and even forgot to blink.

Because Wu Liang revealed the news in advance, Zhang Xi's troops have been on alert tonight, and neither their armor nor weapons have been removed.

And when they found that the city was on fire, and someone was spreading the news loudly in the dark that "Cao Jun has been defeated, Liu Biao led the army to kill", they already understood what happened.

Since then, they naturally had a little more confidence in Wu Liang, the general who had never restrained them.

After all, not everyone can predict things like a god like him, and he has already talked about tonight's affairs a few days ago, this is simply a living god.

So Zhang Xi's troops didn't dare to underestimate Wu Liang any more, and quickly asked his opinion and started to take action.

In this way, according to Wu Liang's request, they didn't even light a torch. They sneaked up behind Zhang Xiu's army in the dark, and then watched helplessly that Zhang Xiu's army, which also had not lit the torch in advance, gradually dispersed, killing Boss Cao. The house where I live is surrounded by water.

At that time, there were only more than a thousand Chinese soldiers left beside Zhang Xiu, and it was the time when Zhang Xiu had the fewest soldiers and horses around tonight.

"General Wu..."

Zhang Xi felt that it was time for a Chinese army of five hundred against a thousand men. Even so, they were still at a disadvantage, but when they were caught off guard, Zhang Xi felt that he still had a chance. If he could disperse Zhang Xiu's Chinese army in one fell swoop, Beheading him under the horse, then Zhang Xiu's troops will lose their chief general, and Boss Cao's plight will definitely be solved.

of course.

This action is not guaranteed to win, if it fails, he and the soldiers under his command will probably be buried here, after all, there are four thousand people under Zhang Xiu's command.

Once they launch an attack, those scattered soldiers and horses can also quickly gather back.

If Zhang Xiu cannot be taken down in one fell swoop before then, they will soon be surrounded...

However, Zhang Xi thinks very openly. Unlike people living in peaceful times, he and his soldiers have experienced many wars, and they have long been accustomed to the cruelty of war. In their conception, instead of dying in a ravine or under a city in obscurity and becoming a corpse that no one cares about, it is better to seek wealth and wealth, at least to live a good life before death!

"Follow my orders, don't be impatient before the time comes!"

Wu Liang looked back at him and shouted seriously.

"promise!"

Zhang Xi kept his previous bet and agreed respectfully.

"Yang Wanli, the people who lead us go first, and give Zhang Xiu some great gifts!"

Wu Liang immediately ordered, "Zhang Xi, your people are responsible for maintaining the security of the Tau army, and you must not teach any enemy to charge over. When the time is right, I will order you to lead the army to charge, and then you will make contributions. when!"

After a moment.

The Huanren Army and Zhang Xisuo's troops finally found a distance of about 20 meters behind Zhang Xiuzhong's army through the night.

"who?!"

The soldiers under Zhang Xiu finally found them and shouted loudly.

This shout immediately alerted the other soldiers, and the hundreds of people in the rear of the Chinese army turned around with a "huh", and all looked at Wu Liang, Zhang Xi and the others. .

"call!"

Wu Liang ordered immediately.

"Kill!"

"kill--!"

Zhang Xi and all his subordinates immediately raised their weapons and shouted in unison, the momentum seemed extremely large.

"Enemy attack?!"

"Enemy attack!"

Seeing this, Zhang Xiu's troops were shocked, and quickly shrank their formation to prepare for the charge.

result……

But nothing happened.

They only heard Zhang Xi and his subordinates shouting loudly, waving their weapons and flags frantically, but they didn't see Zhang Xi and others actually charging, it was all bluffing.

"???"

Zhang Xiu's subordinates were puzzled.

They are not people who have never been on the battlefield, but this kind of face-to-face bluff tactics is rare, and even some educated generals are still thinking about the military theory of "the opponent doesn't know how to go all out, decline again, and exhaust three times"?
When thinking about it like this.

"Kill!"

Zhang Xi and the others shouted again.

This time, instead of standing still, they moved forward quickly.

"Meet the enemy! Prepare!"

The generals under Zhang Xiu's command felt tense and ordered immediately.

"Bang bang!"

The soldiers in the last row immediately set up their shields, while the soldiers in the back gripped their spears tightly, although they were about to stab through the gap between the top of the shield and the side.

This is a standard counter-assault formation, even if the cavalry came, they had to make a detour.

However, what they never thought of was.

The enemy army rushed to a distance of only five or six feet from the shield formation, but stopped suddenly, and then there was an unknown "throw" from the formation!
"???"

Zhang Xiu's department didn't understand again.

Soon they saw some fist-sized balls flying out of the enemy army. Naturally, they didn't know what these balls were, but it was the first time they saw such a small throwing device at close range. arrive.

"Attention, something is being thrown, be careful to avoid it!"

The queen general still reminded me very vigilantly.

However, at this moment, in order to resist the enemy's charge, they have already shrunk into a rather tight formation. Even if they dodge, where can they hide? They can only watch the balls fall into the formation. .

result.

"Ouch!"

"It's just an iron ball. Fortunately, I can hide quickly!"

"What kind of play is this... Is Cao Jun playing with us?"

Someone screamed in pain after being hit, but most of the balls were easily dodged.

No wonder Zhang Xiu's department called it a "child's play". If the ball was really that simple, it would be no different from a child's play, and the effect would not be as good as throwing a torch.

But the next moment.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!..."

Immediately, the ball made a light sound, and before anyone could react, it was torn apart, and countless iron needles shot out like raindrops.

Zhang Xiu's department didn't understand what happened at all.

The iron needles submerged into their bodies in an instant, and the unlucky people around them directly took dozens of iron needles, and the luckier people were not completely spared. Incomparably pierced the eyes.

All this happened too fast.

No one reacted, but the scene fell into silence for an instant.

After such a full two seconds.

"Ah—my eyes!"

"I'm bleeding, I'm hurt, what to do, help me!"

"It hurts! What is this?!"

"what--"

The wailing sound spread instantly as if the switch was pressed, and some people were shot directly in the vitals. They stood upright one second, and fell straight down without even screaming in pain the next second. .

But what made them even more desperate was.

"cast!"

This voice soon came out of the enemy formation.
