The fact that Liu Zhang had elite archers was known to everyone in the world.
How many people have suffered losses under the arrow array?
Therefore, when building a wooden shield, Cao Cao specifically emphasized the resistance ability of the wooden shield.
Although the quantity was not very large, Cao Cao personally tested it after the production was completed.
The result made Cao Cao very satisfied.
A stone bow can only go deep and cannot pierce the shield under normal circumstances.
Even if they fired wildly, only a few arrows could pierce through it.
Because of this, Xia Houyuan dared to stand in front with a wooden shield.
But among the wooden shields in front of me that were filled with arrows, only a few were not pierced!
Here proves a problem.
A bow that shoots arrows must be far more powerful than a stone bow!
The problem is closed, but it has become a puzzle that can never be solved.
There are not that many people in the world who can use the two-stone bow, but there are so many people in front of me.
what is going on?
"King Wei, Yuan Rang, the problem goes beyond that!"
"Have you noticed that these arrows...are shot so neatly!"
As soon as these words came out, Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun were stunned again.
He quickly turned the wooden shield over and looked at it, and it was indeed the case.
Although not completely neat, the arrangement is indeed very regular.
If you are shooting randomly, the arrows should be coming from all directions.
But the tails of the arrows on the wooden shield almost always go in the same direction.
It's not unusual to shoot flat, but it's a bit weird to shoot flat!
How on earth did it get so flat?
"Huh?"
Cao Cao stared at it for a while and suddenly let out a startled sound.
"Yuan Rang, Miaocai, look at the length of the arrow. Is it... too short?"
Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan looked quickly.
"It seems...it's shorter than normal arrows..."
After confirming this conclusion, the three of them became even more confused, with question marks on their heads.
As we all know, the longer the bow and arrow, the greater the distance it can pull, and the more amazing the force of the shot.
The arrows are so short that even a three-stone bow cannot draw the power of a three-stone bow.
That is to say, to shoot such a short arrow with the power of a two-stone bow, a four-stone bow may be needed!
When they thought of this, the three of them couldn't accept it.
Even more impossible!
Not to mention that in the whole world, even if we search ancient and modern times, how many people can pull the four-stone bow?
Even Huang Zhong, the first general of the Han army, could only pull the strings in his prime.
Now, it has also degenerated into a three-stone bow.
How could Cao Cao believe that there were thousands of people behind the shield who could pull a four-stone bow?
I can't believe it even to death!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Do you know the meaning behind this fact?"
Xia Houyuan and Xiahou Dun nodded in unison.
Not only can I not believe that Cao Cao was killed, but I also cannot believe that he killed both of them.
"King Wei, what exactly happened is currently unknown. Everything needs to be investigated after the Han army's camp is broken."
"As long as they can break into the camp, what can the Han soldiers do if they can pull the ten-stone bow? They can only be captured without mercy!"
Cao Cao nodded noncommittally, but he couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
Wouldn't a ten-stone bow be able to shoot down a city wall?
Shaking his head, Cao Cao gave up the unrealistic thoughts in his heart.
"By the way, how are Zhang He and Cao Ren doing?"
Hearing the mention of the two, a rare smile appeared on Xia Houyuan's face.
"The King of Wei may be relieved, but just now the Han army only focused on firing from the front and completely ignored the sides."
"I estimate that General Zhang and General Cao have already begun to attack the camp. If everything goes well, good news will come soon."
Cao Cao and Xiahou Dun were both happy.
The shield array is powerful, and the arrow array is also very strong, but these are all based on the situation that it cannot break through the camp.
Once broken through, they are all lambs to be slaughtered!
"I don't know if there is any good news."
Cao Cao murmured, feeling extremely anxious.
At this time, Xiahou Dun suddenly pointed behind him.
"King Wei, all the soldiers in the middle have retreated. Can't we tell if we take a look?"
"Um?"
Cao Cao was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing.
Yes, the soldiers in the middle were blocking the view just now, but now the soldiers in the middle have withdrawn, and the field of vision is broadened.
"Quick, let's see what's going on."
The three of them turned around at the same time and looked ahead.
It’s okay if you don’t look at it, but you’ll be stupid once you look at it.
The armies on both sides were in chaos at the same time!
It’s okay to be chaotic, but it’s still very orderly.
The closer you get to the camp, the more chaotic it becomes!
It's like a situation where the front is defeated and panic spreads to the rear!
It is unknown whether the Han army camp was defeated, but there is no doubt that they were defeated.
It won't take long for the two Wei armies to flee, thus completely labeling this attack a failure.
Cao Cao froze on the spot, not knowing what to say.
Xiahou Dun's defeat just now was an exploratory attack with only ten thousand people, so the defeat was excusable.
This time it was completely different. This defeat was a huge defeat!
The 30,000-strong army, several times the size of the Han army, was beaten to the point where they lost all their armor and were defeated. It was a joke!
It is appalling enough for the rabble to reach this level.
It's almost on par with the original Yellow Turban Army!
Since the Yellow Turban Uprising, have you ever heard of soldiers and horses other than the Yellow Turban Army being so useless?
Now, there is, it is the Wei army led by Cao Cao.
Two attacks totaling 40,000 Wei troops were defeated by only one-tenth of the Han army.
If he could not defeat the Han army and capture Liu Zhang alive, Cao Cao would be completely embarrassed.
"King Wei, defeated..."
Xiahou Dun's emotionless sigh started the prelude to the collapse of the Wei army.
Cao Cao looked around, his mouth full of bitterness.
But instead of being defeated, the army all fled.
The rear of the two wing armies took the lead in escaping.
I don’t know the reason at all, I don’t know why I ran away, and I didn’t even encounter an attack.
Even so, the rout started.
Judging from the panic and collapsed expressions of the soldiers, it seemed as if they had experienced a massacre!
"Why, why on earth!"
"Zhang He and Cao Ren, what on earth are they doing!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a sudden sound in front of him.
Boo hoo hoo. . .
