Becoming stronger from cutting Hu and Cao Cao

Chapter 480 Gourd Valley Ambush.

Calabash valley mouth.

On the way to the entrance of the calabash valley, countless Yuan Jun soldiers in khaki armor were advancing towards the entrance of the calabash valley.

About [-] cavalry led the way ahead, and in the middle of the team were grain carts and thousands of horses.Fifteen thousand infantrymen looked around, guarding food and horses.

The large banner of the Chinese Army is fluttering in the wind. On the front of this banner is the character Yuan, and on the back is the character Gao.

Under the large banner of the Chinese Army, a burly middle-aged general was sitting on a horse.

This person is Gao Lan among Yuan Shao's Hebei Four Court Columns.It is naturally extraordinary that Gao Lan can have such a name. It can be said that he is a general who can stand on his own.

At this time, Gao Lan had received Yuan Shao's letter, and he knew that Cao Jun would definitely set up an ambush at the entrance of Calabash Valley tonight.

According to Yuan Shao's plan, as long as Gao Lan can hold off Cao Cao's ambush soldiers and horses at the entrance of Calabash Valley for half an hour.Then Ju Yi and Zhang Yun's soldiers and horses ambushing in the distance can make dumplings for Cao Jun's ambush soldiers, and then a praying mantis catching cicadas and orioles will come behind.

Gao Lan didn't panic, although most of his troops were adapted from Gongsun Zan's men.The combat power is not strong, but after holding on for half an hour, Gao Lan is still sure.

Cao Jun actually set up nearby, so it must be for the horses and food he brought.Since it was for horses and food, it would definitely not be attacked by fire.

As long as it wasn't Huo Gong, let alone Gao Lan's men had two thousand soldiers, even two thousand pigs, it would take several hours for Cao Jun to catch them.

Looking ahead, he was about to reach the entrance of Hulugu Valley. Although Gao Lan looked the same as usual at this time, he could be said to have stepped up his guard by 120 points.

at the same time.

Above the Calabash Valley, Cao Hong was leading five thousand tigers and leopards in ambush on the hillside at the entrance of the Calabash Valley.Although the mouth of Calabash Valley is a valley, the slope of the valley is very gentle, and the cavalry can charge from top to bottom, which can exert their greatest strength.

In this terrain, Cao Hong is confident that he can use [-] tiger and leopard cavalry to defeat Gao Lan's [-] elite soldiers.Not to mention the infantry led by Li Dian and Le Jin at the front and rear ends.

Above Taniguchi, Cao Hong could already see Gao Lan's troops from a distance.

"It's close, it's close!"

Cao Hong lay in ambush above the entrance of the calabash valley and watched Gao Lan's soldiers and horses enter the entrance of the calabash valley with his own eyes.The food and horses are in the center of this team. Cao Hong likes these five thousand war horses very much.

The five thousand war horses that Gao Lan brought were all strong and good horses, and these war horses were no worse than the war horses ridden by Cao Hong's tigers and leopards.

"Be careful later, don't hurt my Zhan!" Cao Hong's order was conveyed.

In Cao Hong's view, the [-] war horses brought by Gao Lan were already surnamed Cao.

Cao Hong lay in ambush above the entrance of the Gourd Valley, staring at the soldiers and horses in the valley, only waiting for the soldiers and horses to enter the valley completely, and then, Li Dian and Le Jin sealed the entrance of the valley, and he could come Catch a turtle in a urn.

In it, in it.

Deep, deep.

Gao Lan's soldiers and horses had already entered the mouth of the calabash valley, and they were getting deeper and deeper. After a while, the whole team had entered the hinterland of the mouth of the calabash valley.

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

In the darkness, arrows rained down, and Cao Jun's soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in front and behind.

Li Dian and Le Jin, the two generals of Cao Jun, blocked Gao Lan in the mouth of Calabash Valley almost at the same time.

"Brothers, kill me!"

Seeing that Li Dian and Le Jin blocked Gao Lan's retreat, Cao Hong waved his hand and led his soldiers to rush down the valley.

"Boom! Rumble!"

"Boom! Rumble!"

"Boom! Rumble!"

The sound of rolling horseshoes sounded like thunder on the ground. These are five thousand tiger and leopard riders, and they are the most elite troops under Cao Cao's command.

Looking at Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry rushing down the hillside, Gao Lan was calm and did not panic.

"Set up the chariot formation, resist the enemy!" Gao Lan's order was conveyed.

Since Yuan Shao had already informed Gao Lan that Cao Jun would ambush him at Calabash Valley, how could Gao Lan be unprepared.

The formation of Gao Lan's army seemed nothing on the surface, but after being attacked, it was able to change quickly.

The wagon full of grain was pushed to the front, and the wagon and wagon were lined up side by side to form a wagon wall.

The enemy troops in front and behind quickly shrank to the back of the car wall, and then a driving spear came out from the back of the car wall.

There was billowing smoke and dust, and the sound of horseshoes. When Cao Hong rushed down, he was a little dumbfounded.It was not the panicked Yuan Jun who greeted him, but the heavily guarded Yuan Jun.

Cao Hong was startled when he saw the formation of cars led by Gao Lan.Cao Hong is no fool, he immediately noticed something was wrong.Looking at Gao Lan's current appearance, it's clear that he has been prepared for a long time?

Cao Hong felt his head buzzing, as if he had been tricked.However, at this time the tiger and leopard rider had already rushed down from the hillside.At this time, it seems that the arrow is on the string and has to be fired.

"Kill them all!"

"Kill!" Cao Hong screamed with his spear in his hand.

At this time, there is no more control, the cavalry has already rushed down, so there is no chance for hesitation.Don't care so much, even if it's a trick, Gao Lan has to be killed and the five thousand horses taken away.

Because the chariot formation had been arranged in advance, Cao Hong's first round of impact was not very effective, and Gao Lan's soldiers did not suffer too many casualties.

At this time, Li Dian and Le Jin saw that Cao Hong was blocked, and immediately led soldiers to attack from the left and right flanks.

The cavalry couldn't rush in because of the obstruction of the chariot formation, but Cao Jun's infantry had already turned over the chariot formation and fought with Gao Lan's soldiers.

"General Gao, Cao Jun on the left and right flanks are also coming!" The deputy general reported to Gao Lan.

Gao Lan looked around the battlefield, and immediately ordered: "Don't worry about the left and right wings, and let me entangle Cao Hong's tiger and leopard cavalry."

As a general, Gao Lan knows very well that if the world is talking about the combat effectiveness of infantry.Qin Jun is the first, followed by Cao Jun, and then Yuan Shao.

Gongsun Zan's soldiers and horses were not even as good as Yuan Shao's infantry, let alone Cao Jun's opponents.

The tiger and leopard cavalry are the most elite cavalry under Cao Cao. You can let Cao Cao's infantry go today, but you must wipe out all the tiger and leopard cavalry.Once the tiger and leopard cavalry are destroyed, it will be a great weakness to the combat effectiveness of Cao Cao's army, and it will also be a great weakness to Cao Cao's momentum.

At this time, Gao Lan's eyes were fixed on Cao Hong, as long as he dragged the tiger and leopard for half an hour, even if his entire army was wiped out, it would be worth it.

[-] new recruits, in exchange for Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry, this is a very cost-effective deal.
