Chapter 359: Marquis of Yan ([-])

four hours later

Kaifeng Plain

The plain here is very suitable for transporting loot, so Cao Cao chose to return to Xuchang via Kaifeng.

But also because this is a plain, it is very suitable for armed cavalry, so...

Rumble!
When Cao Cao was passing by here and was about to go back to rescue Xuchang, many cavalry appeared on the open plain.

These cavalry were dressed in armor, and each knight was holding an expensive horse spear. They were divided into three batches, like three iron walls, and they were rushing towards Cao Jun's soldiers.

Due to the sudden attack, the soldiers of Cao Jun did not form a formation at all, but escorted the spoils.

"No, it's Wang Jue's tiger and leopard rider!"

"Pike formation!"

With cold sweat on Cao Cao's forehead, he forced the soldiers to form a long spear formation forcefully.

I was terrified: How did Wang Jue know that I would pass through Kaifeng at this time, so he specially launched a surprise attack at this time?

Since Kaifeng is a plain, there is no way to ambush in advance. Cao Jun's scouts can find the ambush at random.

Cao Cao naturally would not make such low-level mistakes during the march. He let the scouts explore the surroundings while marching.

The abilities of the scouts may not be clearly detected in the mountains, but it is impossible to detect clearly in the plains.

After the scouts' investigation, Kaifeng is absolutely safe and there are no ambushes.

In this case, that is to say, Wang Jue's tiger and leopard cavalry collided with Cao Cao at this time on this plain suitable for cavalry collision.

Just the right time and the right place!

What a coincidence!

Unless Wang Jue can accurately calculate the time when Cao Cao arrived in Xuchang and Kaifeng, how is this possible!
It is not so easy for the soldiers of Cao Jun to form an formation in a hurry. It takes time just to convey the military order, and it takes time for the soldiers to form an formation.

Only the most elite 2000 people have quickly and skillfully formed a spear formation ready to fight, while the rest of the soldiers are still in a hurry.

But Cao Cao found that he still underestimated Wang Jue.

He originally thought that Wang Jue would capture the thief first and capture the king as before, directly attacking him as the coach, so he asked the most elite soldiers to move closer to him and lined up, instead surrounded by a group of soldiers in a hurry.

But Wang Jue seemed to have guessed what he was thinking. This time, he didn't forcefully rush to his position as the coach, but directly attacked the ordinary Cao soldiers, intending to cut off Cao Jun.

Because it is a march and supplies need to be transported, Cao Jun's current formation is the "Long Snake Formation", and tens of thousands of soldiers march forward slowly like a "Snake of Changshan".

These tens of thousands of soldiers included 3000 exhausted Cao soldiers and [-] surrendered Yuan soldiers, a total of [-]. They all lost a lot of physical strength in the Battle of Wuchao, and many of them were injured, so they have no combat effectiveness for the time being.

Beat the snake to play seven inches!
Wang Jue's three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry directly cut off Cao Cao's Changshan snake in the middle.

"Get ready!—Let it go! Ah!——" Xu Huang was directing the crossbowmen to shoot arrows at the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry had already rushed in front of him. He was rammed by a Tiger and Leopard Knight just as he was speaking. The whole person was knocked into the air, and then fell to the ground. There was a bloodstain rubbed on the back and the ground. The flesh and blood on the back and elbows were all blurred, and the spine was exposed. Just as he was about to get up, he was rushed in by the second wave of tigers and leopards. The horseshoe he was riding stepped on his eye socket, and the horse's hoof sank directly into his eye socket, crushing his eyeballs and trampling out many red and white brains.

Xu Huang, a generation of famous generals, didn't even know who killed him. He died directly in the chaos.

Seeing this situation, many captured Yuan Jun soldiers rebelled quickly and helped the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to kill Cao Jun soldiers.

Suddenly, the Kaifeng Plain was in chaos.

"Cao thief! Die!"

He fiercely killed Lu Bu towards Cao Cao with arrogance, like a ghost descending from the earth.

After Cao Jun was cut off, the effect was very obvious. The second half of Cao Jun was in chaos because he lost the command of the coach. The tiger and leopard riders and the rebellious Yuan Bing were still spreading the news that "Cao Cao is dead" among the crowd. They could not contact the coach. Cao Cao was cut off at the waist, and he didn't know what happened. Seeing that no one was commanding them, some of them had to fight on their own, but most of them fled to the distance.

However, the situation in the first half of Cao Jun was much better. Cao Cao personally commanded in the first half, and many generals and counselors also helped to command, so the first half still had a strong combat effectiveness.

"Ming Gong, retreat quickly! I am the queen!" Xia Houyuan led two thousand ordinary Cao soldiers to resist Lu Bu's one thousand tiger and leopard cavalry, and asked Cao Cao to rush back to Xuchang with Cao's elite soldiers to preserve the seeds of Cao's elite soldiers.

Ordinary soldiers can be recruited again after they die, so it doesn't matter if they die, as long as there are strong men in the ruled area, it's very simple, but elites are cultivated in battle after battle, and they are gone after they die. It requires a lot of time and material costs.

"Son Wang Jue! I, Cao Cao, will definitely kill you!" Cao Cao was very angry, but he had no choice but to flee in the direction of Xuchang with Guo Jia, Jia Xu and a thousand elite soldiers.

"Yuan Shao actually has such a famous general, it's terrifying!" Jia Xu also felt terrified of Wang Jue. If it was luck, then luck would be too good. If it was really calculated, it would be even more terrifying. What kind of situation is this? How can a human being have such terrifying arithmetic ability?

Moreover, so many tiger and leopard riders have been wandering around Xuchang, Jia Xu has never been able to figure out how they solved the logistics problem.

"Cao thief! Stop leaving!"

Seeing that Cao Cao was about to flee again, Lu Bu charged forward with a roar.

"Lu Bu, your opponent is me!" Xia Houyuan led two thousand soldiers to charge towards Lu Bu, trying to stop Lu Bu and others.

"Whoever stops me will die!"

Lu Bu entered Xia Houyuan's formation.

hiss--

"Wow!"

clang--

The tiger and leopard cavalry came into close combat with Cao Jun's soldiers.

"Father, I'll help you!" At this moment, Lu Lingqi arrived in time and shot an arrow at Xia Houyuan.

call out!
"what!!!"

Xia Houyuan was shot in the right eye, and he pulled out the arrow stuck in the eyeball, but he was not as extreme as Xiahou Dun, so he didn't eat the eyeball, but just took it off and put it in his pocket, waiting to be buried in his mother in the future This can be regarded as a way of "how can you discard the blood of your parents?" It doesn't have to be eaten into the stomach.

Lu Lingqi is good at archery, especially when shooting people's eyes.

"Zhang Liao is here, and the rats will die!" At this time, Zhang Liao also rushed to Xia Houyuan's side, and stabbed Xia Houyuan in the head with a horse spear.

puff!

Xia Houyuan was still fighting Lu Bu, when suddenly Zhang Liao pierced his head from the side. Ma Qian entered through his left ear and exited through his right ear. When it entered, it was black, and when it came out, it was red. The juice splashed on the immature face of Lu Lingqi who had just rushed over.

It is impossible for Wang Jue to be fair to the enemy in a war. Why should he be singled out if he can be surrounded and beaten? Are you stupid?
