While Gao Lan was sighing that Cao Ang's army had such a powerful repeating crossbow, he was also grateful in his heart.
Fortunately, Cao's army had a limited number of crossbows, and they were all concentrated on Cao Ang's army.
Xu Chu, the general of Cao's army he faced, had a powerful crossbow but no repeating crossbow.
Otherwise, Gao Lan's army only has 30,000 troops, and he is afraid that the front army will be directly defeated by that kind of crossbow!
But soon, Gao Lan no longer cared about the situation on Wen Chou's side, because Xu Chu led 500 heavy armored hussars and 2,000 valiant cavalry and light cavalry, who were also very brave.
Two thousand five hundred riders crashed into Gao Lan's formation, causing a shower of blood in an instant.
Ahead were heavy cavalry clearing the way. The men and horses plus heavy armor weighed nearly two thousand kilograms. Even the tripping ropes had little effect. Instead, many soldiers were dragged down.
Gao Lan hurriedly ordered his subordinates to board the dead soldiers first and put on heavy armor to stop them.
At the same time, let the cavalry in your own formation quickly put on heavy armor and prepare to fight.
On the other side, the situation at Zhang He's place was only weaker than that here at Gao Lan.
Zhang He also had 30,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and even a lot of euphorbia soldiers, but the person he faced was Li Cunxiao, who was as brave as an overlord - and 3,400 cavalry!
Zhang He's strategy of using infantry, spears, shields and archers to block the attack first and reduce the number of Cao's cavalry did not achieve the expected results at all.
Just by Li Cunxiao opening the way, Zhang He's front line was torn open almost instantly.
The heavy-armored euphorbia warriors suffered a bit under the collision of the heavy-armored hussars!
After all, this is not a narrow area like the Battle of Jieqiao. Li Cunxiao and the four hundred black-armored hussars at the head are even more armored heavy cavalry!
Seeing this scene, Zhang He, like Gao Lan, had no choice but to order his cavalry to put on armor and prepare for battle.
It's not that they deliberately let their infantry meet the enemy to increase casualties, but the bravery of Cao's hussar army is known to the world.
That was the prestige that came from Cao Ang's battles in the north and south.
Although there are more than ten thousand cavalry in Hebei's army, and there are also many heavy cavalry, in terms of sharpness, they cannot compare with Cao's army's hussars.
Even the four states of Hebei, which has a vast territory and rich resources, have only raised thousands of horses from Jizhou and Youzhou and thousands of horses from the Bingzhou Army over the years.
All together, less than 20,000 rides!
They are all like baby bumps.
Therefore, Zhang He looked at them and knew that he could not use cavalry to attack at the beginning, so as not to dampen the sharpness of the Hebei cavalry and cause excessive casualties to the cavalry.
Instead, they wanted to use spears, shields, crossbows, heavy infantry and other arms to stop Cao Jun's momentum of charging into the battle, consume his troops' physical strength, and then allow the recharged Hebei cavalry to go into battle.
However, even though Zhang He Gao Lan was prepared for the front army to suffer many casualties, he did not expect that Cao's army's elite cavalry would be so fast and fierce.
In a moment, a hole was opened in the formation!
As a result, Zhang He was no longer able to pay attention to the battle situation on Wen Chou's side, but concentrated on directing the attack on Li Cunxiao.
Wen Chou's 70,000-strong army was divided into four formations.
The first line of 20,000 soldiers and horses, all led by spearmen, crossbowmen and spearmen, formed a dense formation.
As a result, under the attack of Cao Jun's powerful crossbows and repeated crossbows, they were completely wiped out.
Cao Ang led 500 heavy cavalry at the vanguard and crashed into the formation with almost no bloodshed.
Expanding the breach was like a meat grinder, plowing out a bloody trough!
Afterwards, six hundred hussars and six hundred imperial guards came like the wind, holding powerful crossbows and continuously firing arrows at the Yuan army on the left and right.
This made it impossible for the Yuan troops on both sides to get close, let alone to re-arrange and encircle them.
In just a moment, the first formation laid down by Wen Chou was quickly pierced by Cao Ang and his army!
A full three to four thousand Yuan troops were killed or wounded in the formation!
After Cao Ang defeated the first formation, his vision suddenly became empty, and he saw the second formation of soldiers and horses thirty steps away.
This second formation of soldiers and horses was led by thousands of heavily armored euphorbia soldiers, followed by more than ten thousand heavily armored spearmen.
In other words, these 20,000 troops and horses, all heavily armored infantry, are the real elite of Jizhou!
At the back, Wen Chou looked calm, but there was a hint of horror deep in his eyes.
Although he was prepared to be killed by Cao Ang in the first battle, he didn't expect that he would be killed so quickly!
It hardly even played any role in blocking the momentum of Cao Jun's elite cavalry!
"However, these 20,000 heavily armored soldiers, including these Euphorbia warriors, are our elite Jizhou strong soldiers. I don’t believe that I can’t stop you, Cao Zixiu!"
Wen Chou clenched his fists, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
These Euphorbia warriors once allowed Gongsun Zan to annihilate the whole army of Baima Yi, which also gave Wen Chou the confidence to defeat the cavalry with foot!
As long as Cao Ang led his army into it, the densely armored formation would , the speed of the cavalry charging into the formation will slow down, and then slowly lose momentum.
The cavalry that cannot run are no different from targets!
If these euphorbiers and heavy armored spearmen can surround and annihilate Cao Ang and his men. It is the best in the formation. Even if it cannot be encircled and annihilated, its speed should be almost exhausted.
Next, there is the third formation composed of five thousand Hebei elite cavalry.
As for the last formation, This is where Wen Chou's central army is located, with 25,000 men and horses, including crossbowmen, spearmen, spearmen and cavalry.
The combination of the previous three military formations is repeated, forming a strong and iron-clad central army. Formation!
From Wen Chou's point of view, Cao Ang only had more than a thousand cavalry, and it was almost impossible for him to defeat the three military formations in front of him. The momentum of their troops is completely exhausted.
Then what they will face will be the crushing of Wen Chou's 25,000-strong army!
And the three military formations in front will also be reorganized and outflank Cao Ang. , like a millstone, grinding Cao Ang into pieces! Just as
Wen Chou was thinking this, Cao Ang had already mobilized his horses and crossed a distance of thirty steps to reach the front of the 20,000 heavily armored infantry.
"kill!"
At the front, the first row of euphorbia warriors raised their halberds diagonally, like a forest of sharp gold and iron, which was extremely formidable.
If the cavalry bumped into it, both men and horses would be smashed into sieves, which is chilling!
However, , Cao Ang looked at the densely packed halberds, but he didn't even blink.
He was riding a snow-stepping black horse, and his speed did not slow down at all. He directly waved the formation-breaking Overlord Spear and pointed at the long field in front of him. The halberd was smashed away.
At this moment, the power of the Overlord, boosted by the energy and blood of Tianpeng's fighting method, was pushed to the extreme, with a force of ten thousand kilograms!
"Click!"
With a burst of intensive breaking sounds, about a dozen long halberds were smashed directly by Cao Ang! The sharp halberd blade fell to the ground, and only the bare halberd shaft was left in the hands of the halberd warrior. The fracture was smooth, like a fire stick. Even most of the halberd warriors' arms were shattered by the blow, and they couldn't even hold the halberd pole, and they all dropped to the ground.
With a hiss, the man stood up and directly kicked the empty Euphorbia warriors in front of him, causing the heavily armored Euphorbia warriors to stagger and fly out, knocking out two or three rows of robes behind them. Knocked over.
A small gap suddenly appeared in the dense formation.
How could Cao Ang let go of this opportunity
? The dragons went out to sea and caused a bloody storm. Even though they were all wearing heavy armor, under the sharp edge of the Overlord Spear and Cao Ang's magical power, the heavy armor was like paper and was easily torn apart and pierced!
Cao Ang didn't even need to stab, he just held the Overlord Spear and slashed across it. The gun barrel hit the enemy's heavy armor, and even though there was no wound, the huge shock force directly shook the enemy. The bones were broken, the muscles were broken, the internal organs were violent, and it was more terrifying than the trauma!
The five hundred mysterious armored cavalry behind Cao Ang also followed the gap created by Cao Ang, and drove straight into it, holding the ring-shou sword, specifically targeting the Euphorbia warriors. The neck between the leaves drew a bloody hole the moment the horse passed by.
The person holding the spear used the momentum of the horse to thrust the spear into the chest of the Euphorbia soldier, and immediately penetrated it..
Then he gave up throwing the spear, raised the strung crossbow, and fired it directly through the armor!
Then he quickly hung the crossbow on the saddle and pulled out his sword or sword. With axes, hammers and other weapons in hand, they hit the surrounding enemies. When facing heavily armored enemies, swords and other sharp weapons are often of little use, but blunt weapons such as tomahawks, maces, and maces are more effective.
The weight of the hammer is about the size of a cantaloupe. With the momentum of the war horse, even the heavy armor can smash a hole on the head! He fainted on the spot, his brain was shattered in severe cases, and he died instantly!���They were too dense before and mistakenly underestimated the speed of Cao's army breaking the formation. Therefore, the back row had no time to react and leveled the halberds and spears, but Cao Ang took the lead and knocked them away.
The 500-heavy armor also became more and more courageous as they fought, widening the hole that Cao Ang opened with almost zero casualties.
After that, the six hundred Qingqi and the six hundred Jinyiwei almost gave up the fight, and just kept cocking their powerful crossbows and repeating crossbows, firing close range to their faces, and shooting down the surrounding enemy troops.
I don't know when, Cao Ang's armor was covered with the blood of the enemy soldiers rushing out, and he felt that his eyes widened for a while.
The array of euphorbias and heavy armored spearmen has been penetrated!
The five hundred heavy armors, light cavalry, and royal guards from behind also followed closely with a rumble.
Because Cao Ang's charge was too strong and opened up the situation, the strength of their mounts was hardly consumed and they could continue to charge!
At this moment, Wen Chou was already a little confused.
He gritted his teeth and was shocked by Cao Ang's bravery in charging into the battle!
"Is this really within human reach? (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Even Lu Bu was not so brave back then!"
Wen Chou took a breath and sighed heavily in his heart.
The negative energy in his heart kept pouring towards Cao Ang. He was really shocked by Cao Ang's almost inhuman fighting style!
This time, he was killed. In fact, the heavy-armored Euphorbia warriors and There were not many casualties among the spearmen, only about a thousand people.
But if the military formation was penetrated, it would lose its role in blocking Cao Ang!
"Quick, the cavalry rushes into battle!"
After taking a deep breath, Wen Chou hurriedly ordered the third formation of cavalry more than a hundred steps away to charge into the formation.
Before that, when Cao Ang was about to break the formation, Wen Chou had already made them ready.
At this moment, with an order, five thousand Jingqiu galloped forward, carrying the energy he had accumulated for a long time, heading straight towards Cao Ang like a shooting star.
"Just in time!"
Cao Ang's eyes were blazing, and his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
Since the formation of the Hussars, Cao Ang has never encountered a large-scale enemy cavalry, and has never experienced a battlefield where cavalry clashed.
This time, it is just a good time to review the Hussars. The fighting strength of the cavalry! []
So, with Cao Ang taking the lead, the 1,700 light cavalry and the 5,000 Hebei elite cavalry collided with each other!
However, after the fight, Cao Ang was a little disappointed.
Although the riding skills are superb, the sharpness is slightly lacking and not strong enough.
It is not as strong as Cao Ang imagined the elite cavalry of Yan and Zhao!
It can be seen that it is not that these elite cavalry are not strong enough, but Yuan Shao's. Under his command, they have not experienced a war for many years and lack the tempering of blood and fire! The sword is sharpened, and the cavalry is like the sharpest tip of a spear. If it cannot be sharpened from time to time, it will rust!
There is no doubt that when the cavalry of the two armies rushed past, hundreds of corpses of Hebei Jingqi were left on the battlefield, as well as more than a thousand injured soldiers who fell off their horses and were wailing on the ground.
One hedge, five thousand Hebei Jingqi. , the casualties were nearly two thousand, and Cao Ang's 1,700 cavalry suffered very few casualties!
At this moment, Wen Chou's eyes widened suddenly...
He never expected that the Hebei Jingqi, who had been recharging their strength, would Fighting more and waiting for work, he was so vulnerable in front of Cao Ang!
Before Wen Chou's shock continued, Cao Ang had already hit Wen Chou's last wave. Central Army!
At this moment, the 25,000 Yuan troops surrounding Wen Chou had a look of horror in their eyes as they witnessed the three military formations in front being defeated one after another.
Facing the thousands and hundreds of Cao Ang and Cao's troops who came with great momentum, they felt weak and couldn't even muster the courage to fight! It can be said that their morale had hit the bottom after being defeated in the first three battles.
In his eyes, his armor was covered with blood, and Cao Ang was almost dyed red. At this moment, he was a killing god wearing blood armor! The more than a thousand riders behind Cao Ang were almost invincible heavenly soldiers!
The moment they collided, the Hebei soldiers in the front ranks of Wen Chou's army collapsed in panic! No one dared to step forward to block Cao Ang , the murderous god! darkened
"Block! Stop me!
Those who retreat will be killed!"
He shouted angrily and ordered the supervising team to take action and directly cut down many of the defeated soldiers.
However, it was of no avail.
Because morale had been shattered!
Even those Yuan Jun soldiers who did not want to die were furious. All the generals and troops were killed in turn.���Got it!
If Cao Ang hadn't been chasing after him and heading straight for Wen Chou's banner, these defeated soldiers would have directly attacked Wen Chou's banner in order to survive, instead of retreating to both sides.
Seeing that the defeated soldiers in the front line could no longer stop him.
Wen Chou sighed, and had no choice but to order the Chinese army's euphorbiasmen and cavalry to charge into the formation. They must stop Cao Ang at all costs and give the three formations in front time to reorganize their formation and fight back to respond.
However, under the general trend, Cao Ang's elite cavalry were no longer able to be stopped by a handful of euphorbia warriors and cavalry!
Among thousands of troops and horses, Cao Ang made a great move and swept through thousands of troops. With a spear that broke the formation, the elite soldiers of Hebei were frightened by the direct kill!
Wen Chou couldn't help but feel horrified while watching it!
Even Lu Bu in front of Hulao Pass was probably not as brave as Cao Ang!
Although Wen Chou never witnessed Lu Bu's bravery in front of Hulao Pass, he can be sure that even Lu Bu in his heyday could not achieve the feats of a god like Cao Ang!
"Cao Lang's bravery is probably ten times that of Lu Bu!
This is the power of God, which cannot be defeated by human beings!"
Wen Chou sighed, ordered his soldiers to disperse, left the banner, got on his horse, tightened his grip on the iron gun in his hand, and headed straight for Cao Ang.
He had already seen that Cao Ang was unstoppable, and he had only two choices.
Either. Die in the battle, leaving a trace of strength for the Hebei army, or abandon the army and retreat, and if he, the general , retreats, the 200,000 Hebei army will be defeated and scattered, and it will be out of control!
���Choose to fight!
"Cao Zixiu, how can you recognize the general Wen Chou!"
Wen Chou shouted loudly, and among the thousands of retreating troops, he went upstream and went straight to Cao Ang.
Cao Ang also saw Wen Chou's desire to die. It was an indomitable determination, and he admired it quite a bit.
But from In Wen Chou's determined eyes, Cao Ang saw Wen Chou's courage in choosing to die rather than surrender, and chose to fulfill his wish.
At the moment when the two horses crossed each other, Cao Ang shot away Wen Chou's iron spear. In Wen Chou's horrified eyes, Provoke it!
At this moment, Wen Chou, the general of Hebei and the leader of the 200,000-strong army, died on the battlefield!
In other battlefields, Gao Lan's troops were not as brave as Li Cunxiao's attack.!
Although Le Jin led 30,000 Huainan new troops, Le Jin, who was born first, fought bravely on the battlefield, and he was also unstoppable...
