The Wuhuan cavalry's attack was blocked, and they were stalemate with Yanzhou Army Qianqu for a while, engaging in a fierce hand-to-hand battle.
"Crossbow! Fire!" Yu Jin shouted repeatedly, asking the crossbowmen in the back row to take over their positions and shoot arrows.
"Haberdash, attack!" Le Jin shouted and rushed forward with the halberd soldiers. He was worthy of being a desperate Saburo.
The halberd is a combination of a spear and a spear. Its main attack method is assassination, but it also has the function of a spear - "hook killing"!
"Kill!" Without the impact, the cavalry's range of attacks becomes wider. Not only the riders on the horses, but also the war horses are vulnerable to attack.
"Chi! Chi!" The halberd swung out, hooked the horse's leg, and then hooked it back hard. The sharp halberd blade broke the horse's leg.
Yan Liang and Wen Chou tried their best to control the troops. Although they were brave, they could not offset the Wuhuan soldiers' lack of training and backward armor. Moreover, Yuan Xi had no intention of equipping them. As long as they charged a few more times, the Wuhuan cavalry might be defeated. About to collapse.
"Woo!" A short, almost inaudible horn sound sounded, and then the Wuhuan cavalry shouted Wuhuan words. Then the Wuhuan soldiers turned their horses and fled towards the center.
Wuhuan soldiers may not be able to practice battle formations, but their riding skills are absolutely superb, and it only takes a moment to turn their horses around. The Wuhuan soldiers in the back row urged the people in the front row. They wanted to run away immediately because the sharp spears and halberds behind them were already stuck to their backs.
"Tick-tock! Tick-tock!" The Wuhuan cavalry were defeated like a mountain, and a torrent of defeat had formed, rushing towards the formation.
Suddenly, clouds of smoke and dust arose all around, causing the Wuhuan cavalry to escape faster.
"Chase! Chase!" Le Jin shouted and rushed forward with his men.
Cao Ren and Cao Ang's thousand cavalry and Yuzhou elite soldiers had agreed in advance to follow Yue Jin's troops. As soon as they rushed forward, they also excitedly followed Lejin's troops to chase and kill the fleeing Wuhuan cavalry.
According to the original plan, as long as the Wuhuan cavalry attacked the formation, the Jizhou army's formation would immediately lose command. At that time, if they could cover up and kill them, they would win! possible!
Cao Cao's army moved forward, and the center of the Chinese army had to move accordingly. Cao Cao and others were also guarded by Su Wei. Following Cao Ren and Cao Ang's troops, they advanced slowly. After all, they could not break away from the army.
"No, there's something wrong. The Wuhuan cavalry seems to be defeated but not in chaos!" Xun You said in horror.
"What!" Cao Cao also hurriedly took a closer look and saw that the smoke and dust around him dispersed a little, and the flags at the center of the Jizhou Army's formation had disappeared. Only the Wuhuan cavalry ran wildly towards the south as if they were dead.
"Was it washed away?" Cao Cao was confused, with a bit of surprise.
"No, it's a trick!" Xun You said anxiously, "They asked the Wuhuan soldiers to lure us forward to deviate from the border water!"
After hearing Xun You's analysis, Cao Cao was suddenly shocked and broke into a cold sweat. He looked back and saw that he was indeed far away from the Chasm Water. After the Wuhuan soldiers in front rushed over, there was a smooth road to the south.
"Flag!" Cheng Yu pointed behind the right wing. Jizhou military flags were erected there, and war drums were beating.
At this time, Yuan Xi led the guards, Guo Jia and others, and slowly rode their horses to the back of the right wing.
In fact, just as the Wuhuan soldiers began to retreat, they had already moved. The Wuhuan soldiers wanted to change direction.
The rear part became the front part. These front Wuhuan soldiers dragged the branches prepared in advance and stirred up dust all over the sky. This made the Yanzhou Army unable to see the changes on the Jizhou Army's side.
In fact, the center of the Jizhou Army was the weakest at the front of the formation. There were many flags and it looked very thick, but it was a small virtual formation. Apart from the guards and Danyang soldiers, there were not many troops at all. The ship was small enough to turn around, and it was all well-trained elite soldiers. As a result, it immediately moved behind the right wing.
Looking at the bewildered Cao Jun, Yuan Xi sneered: "Cao Cao and others were indeed aroused. If it is not difficult to see our plan, or they saw something wrong and were blinded by their anger, they got in with all their might. You will lose your mind.”
Hearing Yuan Xi's cold sarcasm, Cao Xian's body stiffened unnaturally. Her face turned pale. This was not only the first time she had experienced such a bloody battlefield. He was more worried about the Yanzhou Army.
Guo Jia smiled and commanded the flags and troops with Jia Xu. The prey has gotten into the trap, and it still needs to be closed.
Under the command of Guo Jia, seven thousand riders on each side of the left and right wings rushed out. Zhang Liao and Zhang Xiu
From the left wing, they quickly circled behind the Yanzhou Army's center. Zhao Yun and Tai Shici outflanked the right wing. The two cavalry detoured back to the Yanzhou Army's center and blocked the gap.
"Open the formation!" While the cavalry was dispatched, Jia Xu also waved the flag and issued an action order.
The dense formations on the left and right wings deployed by the Jizhou Army began to disperse and turned into small formations.
Except for those fighting with the small phalanx of the Yanzhou Army, the infantry phalanx in the middle and rear followed and followed the cavalry to surround the Yanzhou Army.
As a result, Jizhou's 110,000 troops completed their formation in a pocket shape, semi-surrounding more than 40,000 Yanzhou soldiers, leaving only a gap in the south for the Yanzhou soldiers to escape.
I remember that on the battlefield to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, our Marshal Peng often played this kind of pocket formation!
"Don't mess up the formation, gather it back!" Cao Cao said loudly.
"Close the left and right fronts and form a dense formation!" Cheng Yu also loudly ordered the ordering soldiers.
"Houtqu also turns into a dense formation to guard against the attack of the Jizhou cavalry behind!" Xun You ordered another group of messengers at the same time.
For a time, both sides were busy reorganizing their formations. The semi-encirclement of the Jizhou Army had been formed, and the Yanzhou Army also reduced the large square formation into a dense formation to resist the attacks from all sides of the Jizhou Army.
"Kill!" "Attack, attack!" There were sounds of fighting in the small phalanxes everywhere. The small phalanxes took turns fighting, and various long and short weapons cooperated to attack, either offensively or defensively, and they were stuck together for a while.
But it can be expected that once it lasts, the large Jizhou Army will definitely have the advantage.
In addition, the Yanzhou Army is no longer backing the enemy, and its will to resist is not as strong as before. At this time, any slight change will affect the battle situation! Not to mention being in danger of being surrounded!
I draw some water.
Cheng Yu (141-220), courtesy name Zhongde, was a counselor, famous minister and general of Cao Wei from the late Eastern Han Dynasty to the Three Kingdoms period.
His real name was Cheng Li, but he changed his name to Cheng Yu because he held the sun in Mount Tai in his dream. In the third year of Chuping (192), he was conquered by Cao Cao as Shouzhang Ling. From then on, he gave him advice and fought in all directions.
When Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, Cheng Yu and Xun Yu stayed behind to stop the armies of Lu Bu and Chen Gong, and saved the three cities. Due to their merits, they were appointed Prime Minister of Dongping and stationed in Fan County.
After Cao Cao moved Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty to Xudu, he appointed Cheng Yu as Shangshu, and later as General Dongzhonglang, leading the prefect of Jiyin and overseeing Yanzhou affairs. After defeating Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang, he was appointed General Fenwu and granted the title of Marquis Anguo Ting.
And Cheng Yu was the murderer who indirectly killed Yuan Shao, so Cheng Yu's final outcome could only be to be killed, without the possibility of being surrendered. With the urine of Emperor Xuanwu of Taizong, Yuan Xi could not be broad-minded. It's impossible to let Cheng Yu go!
Otherwise, there will be one less legitimate reason for the crusade against Cao Cao this time. Don’t forget that Yuan Xi’s slogan is Qingjunzi, and the other is to avenge his father. These two slogans were barely legal in ancient times. For example, Cao Cao Crusade against Xuzhou to avenge his father.
Therefore, Yuan Xi must give an explanation to himself and the people of the world, so Cheng Yu must die.
