Looking through the gaps in the shield formation, all we could see were the corpses of Wei soldiers who died tragically.
Moreover, there were several arrows inserted into each corpse, which were not air arrows at all.
The real scene that he saw in his eyes crazily impacted Xun Yu's spirit.
Arrows appeared out of thin air, and the arrow-shooter appeared out of thin air!
Everything completely exceeded Xun Yu's expectations!
what is going on?
Xun Yu tried his best to recall everything along the way, but he couldn't find any omissions at all.
There was not even a shred of confirmation of what was happening in front of me.
"Inform the King of Han that the Wei soldiers have withdrawn."
Gao Shun's voice woke Xun Yu up. Looking through the gap, he saw the figures of Wei soldiers fleeing hastily.
However, Xun Yu was not surprised at this scene.
Not to mention these ragtag soldiers, even if it were him, he would not be able to help but flee.
Who can face these sorceries without fear?
However, at this time, Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun in front of the Wei army's formation did not have much fear in their eyes.
Instead, he was more surprised.
Compared with the surprise at the two rounds of arrows fired by the Han army, there was obviously more anger at the soldiers' defeat.
"King of Wei, minister..."
Xiahou Dun rode his horse back to Cao Cao, looking extremely ashamed.
All the soldiers who were not shot to death fled back.
This attack ended in a disastrous defeat and even a complete defeat.
The defeat was not actually the most embarrassing thing for Xiahou Dun. After all, before the attack, no one thought that Xiahou Dun could win in one battle.
Including Cao Cao, everyone hoped that Xiahou Dun could sustain the battle with the Han army for a while and focus on consumption.
But the process far exceeded the expectations of the Wei generals and even Cao Cao.
Not only were the 10,000-strong Wei army defeated, but they did not even touch the hair of the soldiers trapped in the camp.
To be precise, I didn't even see the faces of the soldiers trapped in the camp.
To put it more intuitively, they couldn't even get close to the Han army's camp, and they didn't even touch the iron shield. They were defeated, miserably defeated, completely defeated!
In fact, the number of soldiers shot dead by the Han army was only over a thousand, and most of them were concentrated in the Wei army who was attacking from the front.
Five thousand soldiers on both sides were shot to death, not even a hundred.
Even with such casualties, more than 8,000 soldiers were so frightened that they collapsed and fled, as panicked as rats!
Defeat is not shameful, but this kind of cowardice, cowardice, and embarrassment made the entire Wei army be nailed to the pillar of shame.
This scene completely catered to Liu Zhang's evaluation of Wei Jun.
Trash, rabble, not worth mentioning!
Based on the performance of this attack, it was definitely a wise move for Liu Zhang not to surrender.
Who would surrender to a bunch of losers?
"Back off."
Contrary to Xiahou Dun's expectation, Cao Cao did not reprimand, but just waved his hand feebly.
"As commanded..."
Xiahou Dun breathed a long sigh of relief and quickly retreated.
Cao Cao's eyes were full of disappointment.
Not only to Xiahou Dun, but also to this group of soldiers.
"Zhang He."
Upon hearing Cao Cao's call, Zhang He immediately rode forward.
"What is King Wei's order?"
Cao Cao pointed to the shield formation in front.
"Did you see clearly the Han army's attack method just now?"
Zhang He nodded.
After failing to see clearly after the two attacks, Zhang He took his eyes off and forgot about it.
"What do you think?"
"Reporting to the King of Wei, Liu Zhang should have hidden the soldiers in the trapped camp behind iron shields and prepared strong bows to resist."
"Did King Wei hear the command to release arrows twice just now?"
"good."
Cao Cao did hear it, and he heard it very clearly.
As soon as the order to release the arrows was given, the arrows were shot out quickly, which shows the eliteness of the soldiers!
"Zhang He, I still feel a little strange."
"This arrow seems a little unusual."
"Report to the King of Wei, I also have this doubt!"
Zhang He was about to mention this matter to Cao Cao, but Cao Cao raised it first.
"Just now Cai Chen saw very clearly that the arrows were shot out from the gaps between the shield formations, and they were shot straight out."
"Normally speaking, you shouldn't attack like this. You should launch it into the sky."
"The Han army not only fired flatly, but also fired extremely fast! The distance between the two arrows was so fast that it seemed like the blink of an eye!"
"It's... it's amazing!"
Zhang He could understand everything, except the arrow's firing speed.
If it is thrown into the sky, there is no need to question it.
As long as the soldier winds up the string fast enough, he can shoot out a steady stream.
But shooting arrows in the gaps of the shield array is different.
Not only do you need to wind the string, but you also need to place the arrow into the gap where it can be shot.
This coming and going is definitely not something that can be completed in just one or two breaths.
Zhang He racked his brains and couldn't figure out how to do it.
The same person who couldn't figure it out was Cao Cao, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Zhang He to discuss it.
"The horizontal shooting is powerful, but the lethality is limited. The arrows will be concentrated and wasted on the soldiers at the front."
"Projection saves time and effort, makes it convenient for soldiers and increases lethality."
"Why did Liu Zhang abandon the near for the far and the easy for the difficult?"
Cao Cao asked and sighed.
That is to say, the Wei soldiers were timid and not well-trained soldiers.
Otherwise, the Wei army would have been close by long ago.
No matter how fast the shooting speed is, it cannot cover up the shortcomings of flat shooting.
When the number of people is superior, it can be said that it is stupid to shoot flatly.
"King Wei, please forgive me for being stupid and not understanding the true meaning."
Zhang He was very helpless and couldn't figure out the reason.
"It doesn't matter, I don't understand either."
Cao Cao smiled lightly and did not blame him.
However, more than a thousand people were lost, which was nothing to mention for an army of 150,000.
The balance of victory is still firmly tilted towards Cao Cao.
And this failure gave Cao Cao hope of victory.
Liu Zhang had exhausted all means of resistance, what else could he do?
"Zhang He, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren obey orders!"
Cao Cao shouted out the names of the three people in one breath.
Zhang He was by his side and immediately accepted the order.
Xia Houyuan and Cao Ren also rode out immediately.
"I'm here!"
Only Xiahou Dun in the rear looked disappointed.
Obviously, the last failure made Cao Cao shelve the idea of using him.
Otherwise, it should be a combination of Xiahou Dun, Xia Houyuan, and Cao Ren.
Cao Cao had no intention of paying attention to Xiahou Dun and began to assign tasks to the three of them.
"No matter what method Liu Zhang uses, it doesn't matter what his purpose is. It is a fact that the Han army has few soldiers!"
"Now I order you to each lead an army of 10,000, and divide your troops into three groups to attack the Han army camp at the same time!"
"Isn't Liu Zhang an archer? Okay! Let's see what he can do with an army of 30,000 people!"
Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Zhang He were overjoyed.
"I accept your order!"
