Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 196 Aimed to death
Li Jue waited for Guo Si and Zhang Ji to launch an attack on both sides of Cao Jun respectively, and he finally gave the order: "Send the order, charge."

At this moment, taking back the emperor became their common goal.

"Son of Heaven, it's ours!"

The three people, who were already blushing and thick-necked, put aside their feud temporarily and tacitly, and united together.

Nearly [-] cavalry charges launched a high-speed charge, and the vibration generated by the rhythmic contact of the horseshoes with the ground can be felt even by the emperor who is far away in Luoyang City.

Liu Xie supported the ground with his hands, feeling the slight tremors from the ground. He seemed worried and hurriedly asked Cao Cao: "Cao Aiqing, General Lu, can he really do it?"

This is the seventh time Liu Xie has asked.

How can a man say no?

Cao Cao replied to Liu Xie with certainty: "I believe in Lu Yan, he has never been defeated!"

Just because he hasn't been defeated before doesn't mean he won't lose in the future. No matter how confident and calm Cao Cao appears, the ministers, concubines and maids have already packed their things and are ready to run away at any time.

The emperor nodded and looked at Yang Biao, who was resting with his eyes closed, and finally stopped talking, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

For so many years, Lu Yan set up the workshop in Chenliu County, and other projects have been interrupted, except for the things on the battlefield, he has never relaxed.

All fear stems from lack of firepower.

Lu Yan, who is well aware of the importance of army building, does not dare to stop even for a moment even if he cuts down on food and clothing.

"Barbed caltrops have been sprinkled in the space of the horse pit and the fifty steps behind it. But sir, will it be too wasteful to do so?" Xia Houlan asked with some distress as she thought about the Xiliang horses that were about to be scrapped.

Those horses are all excellent war horses, so it is a pity that they were lost in front of the battle.

"Only if you win the battle first, you are qualified to consider the issue of spoils." Lu Yantiao looked at Sangu Hongliu, who was gradually separating in the distance, and replied calmly, "Send the order and prepare to resist the impact!"

"Here!" Xia Houlan stopped talking nonsense, and took the order with her fists folded.

"The projectile location, the horse pit, the archers are ready!"

"After the cavalry pass through the caltrops, the heavy crossbowmen are ready to harvest!"

Xu Huang stood behind Lu Yan with the big axe.

He quietly watched this series of tactical arrangements against the cavalry, and suddenly felt a chill down his back.

"This is too scary!" Xu Huang frequently glanced at this seemingly powerless scribe through the corner of his eyes, and some fear was spreading in his heart, "Those Xiliang cavalry will pass through the horse pit And barbed wire, as well as nearly two feet long spears, a shield wall as high as a man, and countless heavy crossbowmen hidden behind the big shield are waiting for them."

Your uncle, if you target it, you target it, but you are targeting it to death!
Lu Yan is well aware of the powerful combat power and deterrent effect of cavalry in this period.

He only has infantry now, so he has used almost all the tricks that are easy to use against cavalry.

At this time, many tricks against cavalry have not yet appeared, so defense is naturally impossible to talk about.

I am fortunate to be the first to experience the Xiliang cavalry for the package. I am afraid this time it will really turn the sky upside down
In the hearts of Li, Guo and Zhang,
The Xiliang army has been fighting powerful opponents such as the Huns and Qiang for a long time, and its combat power does have an absolute advantage compared with the Central Plains army.

What's more, at this time their army is almost twice that of Cao Jun, and there are [-] powerful Xiliang cavalry.

Even Ma Teng and Han Sui, who came out of Xiliang, were beaten to the ground by him. How could the group of princes who were raised in the Kanto and could only engage in civil war withstand the destruction of their own cavalry?
It's getting close!
Looking at the lineup in front of him, which was probably less than 1 people, Zhang Ji reckoned that he would be able to kill the opponent in less than half an hour with his own army of nearly 5000 people.

"Speed ​​up, rush over!"

Zhang Ji urged his cavalry to speed up. They had just rested for a long time, and their physical strength was still sufficient.

Zhang Ji could already see the appearance of Cao Jun in front of him.
A picture of himself breaking through the army formation and stepping into Luoyang to rob the emperor back appeared in his mind.

But Zhang Xiu, who rushed to the front and acted as the arrow of the cavalry, couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw the neat, dark and solid shield wall.

Under Zhang Xiuxin's worry, he subconsciously slowed down the speed of the mount, and it was precisely this slowdown that saved his life!
"Sigh!!!!"

Zhang Ji found out in astonishment,
Many of the cavalry at the front of the family suddenly sank while running, and then amidst the tragic neighing sound of the horses under their seats, they fell to the ground with their horses and rubbed hard on the ground for a distance!
The horse's legs trapped in the horse pit were extremely fragile under the great inertia, and the sound of clicking could be heard endlessly, and even Cao Jun's soldiers who were about to face the charge were frightened.

After the horse fell to the ground, some of the unprepared cavalry in the rear were tripped, and some directly trampled over them.

The horse pit with a thickness of only a few hundred steps actually killed nearly [-] cavalrymen of Zhang Ji, and Zhang Xiu couldn't help but stand on end!

"Fire arrows!"

With an order, countless arrows flew out of Cao Jun's formation!
The cavalry had already charged a certain distance, and there was no turning back when they opened their bows.

After a round of arrow rain, another two or three hundred people fell down. Zhang Ji could only bite the bullet and shouted: "Rush over, rush over!"

Fortunately, someone stepped on the pit in front, and the smart horse will pass around those obstacles by itself.

However, after passing the horse trap, there was still a barbed wire. "Wori, your ancestor!" Zhang Ji and Zhang Xiu couldn't help but curse.

Those little cuties hidden in the grass or on the soil are no less lethal to horses than horse traps, and even better in terms of concealment.

The nightmarish 150-step distance Zhang Xiu was the forward, and Zhang Ji was the [-] cavalry of the Chinese army. They lost nearly [-] cavalry before breaking through the first line of defense.

Just when they raised their swords and were about to pour out the pent-up anger on Cao Jun's soldiers, the opponent's shield wall suddenly cracked a gap!

In the gaps were heavy crossbowmen who were squatting or standing, and arrows flashing coldly, which made the hearts of Xiliang cavalry sink to the bottom.
Bows and arrows are not very effective against extremely fast cavalry, and they often run far away after the simple support falls down after being thrown.Therefore, they could only shoot arrows at the Xiliang army left behind in the horse pit and the caltrop, and at the same time block the Xiliang infantry who followed up.

When the distance is too far, the effect of the crossbow is undoubtedly better than that of the bow.

When the cavalry was still fifty steps away, the crossbowman between the gaps in the shield let out an arrow!
"Fire arrows!"

"Boom!!!"

A uniform crisp sound broke the nerves of many Xiliang soldiers!
"what!!"

"Ahhh!!"

"Sorry!"

Countless howls sounded!
After a round of crossbow arrows, the front row fell down in unison, but before the Xiliang army came back to their senses, the second round of crossbow arrows came again!
"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

After the first batch of shots, immediately replace the second batch of crossbowmen.The replaced crossbowmen set up their bows and arrows behind them, waiting for the next round of volleys.

A mere fifty steps away is like a moat to Zhang Ji's cavalry!
Zhang Xiu turned around and ran away resolutely. He turned around and came to Zhang Ji's side, shouting loudly: "General, go!"

Zhang Ji was unwilling, at this time, the opponent's fourth wave of crossbow arrows came again!
The bowstring vibrates one after another, Cao Jun is like a never-ending war machine!

Of the 1000 cavalry, there were less than [-] left without even touching the corners of their clothes.

Damn, is there such a bully?
Zhang Ji's troops were already the weakest. Now that most of the cavalry were lost on the charge, his heart finally broke down: "Withdraw, withdraw! Withdraw to Hongnong!"
