Military morale is a wonderful thing.

Can't see or touch.

But it can really affect the combat effectiveness of an army, and even dominate the outcome of a battle.

Now the yellow turban thieves have their sight blocked.

As a result, it is impossible to judge with the eyes, how big is the cavalry that appeared on the battlefield.

And the unknown is the most frightening thing!
Especially after the horseshoe is nailed, there will be a very crisp sound when it gallops and kicks in the dust, which also leads to a very obvious vibration and sound effect when a thousand horses are galloping.

Coupled with the shouting from the top of the city.

It makes people believe three points out of thin air.

So all of a sudden.

A huge army of tens of thousands of people was distracted by a cavalry of unknown origin.

And as the vibration became stronger and stronger.

The source of the earthquake kept approaching.

This restlessness became more and more obvious.

The originally tightly packed formation also became chaotic because of the fear and turmoil in the hearts of the soldiers.

See this situation.

Generals and schools at all levels hurriedly spoke to appease.

"All squat down, hold the weapons in your hands tightly, don't be afraid, the enemy army doesn't have many cavalry!"

"Shuai Qu said, our army will surely win this battle, as long as we take this city, open a warehouse to release grain, and open our stomachs to eat for three days!"

"Don't move around, don't run around, anyone who dares to take a step back will be killed immediately!"

Both grace and grace.

Not only good words to appease, but also words to deter.

But it doesn't really work.

When an army's morale is declining rapidly, it is difficult to bring it back with words.

So the formation is still slowly collapsing.

People are constantly retreating quietly, ready to run away at any time, but the military discipline in the army has not yet collapsed.

And in this context.

He came right at the door.

But a few breaths of effort.

Cao Ang and Dian Wei rushed forward with dozens of horsemen, and Dian Wei's mountain-like figure suddenly appeared in everyone's eyes.

Panic, collapse and fear, began to intensify!
……

"Hahahaha!"

"Kill! Kill me!"

"The whole army charged, and stomped out the brains of these thieves!"

Dian Wei is like a malevolent demon god.

Every word he yelled could make the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army shudder and tremble all over.

Especially his thunderous voice, even if he was laughing, it sounded like a monster screaming, like a demon seed descending from the sky.

Accompanied by his black figure rushing out of the smoke and dust, like a copper mountain iron tower, riding on horseback, occupying a large area.

Like a dragon breaking through the sea, a tiger coming out of the abyss!
And after Dian Wei roared.

The thousands of cavalry who rushed after them, even under the command of Cao Chun, moved in unison, and within a few seconds before and after, they uttered the same voice.

"kill!!!"

Just like Taishan toppled, rivers and seas hit.

It's really heart-breaking, and the souls of the dead are outrageous!
Everyone felt that under the billowing smoke and dust, there were cavalry everywhere, and there was no sound of horseshoes in their ears.

The crowds of figures were earth-shattering, and it only made people think that there were tens of thousands of cavalry rushing forward.

Especially before they became rebels, these Yellow Turban soldiers were just ordinary people, without any high psychological quality at all.

Now squat down.

Slightly raised his head and looked forward.

The cavalry who came charging stayed on their horses, and their height was already a lot higher, like giants galloping.

Its sense of oppression can be imagined!

……

Such a frightening momentum became the last straw that overwhelmed the psychological defense line of the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army.

Already on the brink of chaos.

This time it exploded even more.

The morale of the entire army collapsed in an instant.

No one wants to die inexplicably, let alone wait for these tens of thousands of cavalry to rush to the front and back, trampling them one by one with their horseshoes.

Even though he attacked the city with the rebel army and robbed food, he had already pinned his head to his belt, and he might sacrifice his life at any time.

But fear in the face of giants.

This is imprinted deep in the soul.

There is no way to avoid it!
Therefore, when the cavalry issued the charge again, the Yellow Turban Army was completely in disarray.

"Run!"

"Run away, run away!"

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I don't want food, I surrender!"

And more people.

On the other hand, he kept his mouth shut and ran backwards in silence, wishing he could grow two more legs.

I don't want to get rid of the cavalry behind me, I just want to run faster than others, and someone can back me up.

As the saying goes, the defeat is like a mountain.

From the moment the entire army collapsed, no one could stop the situation from deteriorating.

Even the generals and officers of the middle and lower ranks were mixed in the crowd, fleeing for their lives with everyone.

Zhang Rao, handsome man of Huangjinqu in Qingzhou, looked at the scene in front of him like a pillar of heaven falling, his face was full of despair and grief.

He never thought of it.

He was defeated by the cavalry again.

Could it be that he was restrained by the cavalry in his life?
I really hate it!

Zhang Rao had the urge to take his sword to a duel with the cavalry commander, but he was dragged away by the left and right generals before he could act hot-headed.

"Shuai Qu, it's better to go first, and gather the remnants after we're out of danger!"

And when Zhang Rao left like this, several flags representing the generals in the army fell down one after another because no one paid attention to them, and now the defeated troops collapsed even faster.

Even the coach has slipped away, and what a fart!

……

Cao Ang looked at the crowd in front of him like the tide was receding, and a trace of excitement flashed in his eyes.

It was exactly as he expected.

When all kinds of confusing factors are stacked together, and his mere thousand cavalry is expanded to a deterrent of tens of thousands, it is enough to cause the enemy to collapse without a fight.

As a pioneer rushing to the forefront.

Cao Ang didn't even have time to launch the first wave of attack, and his horse's hoof didn't even touch a head, and the Yellow Turban Bandit collapsed.

This is the real war!
After some excitement in my heart.

Cao Ang didn't waste any more time.

Immediately patted Jiujiu on the shoulder.

The little golden eagle fluttered its wings and soared straight to the sky, and let out bursts of sharp chirping sounds.

And at this moment, the defenders in the city are waiting in full battle.

After hearing this all-too-familiar signal sound, they immediately opened the city gate and rushed out under the leadership of county magistrate Lin Shao. One or two even rushed out on the flames that had not been extinguished.

It doesn't matter what the formation is not.

This time is to beat the dog in the water.

Go straight to the front to support.

After sending out the signal, Cao Ang continued to order to the left and right: "Find a place with a lot of people, hit him hard twice, and make a way out."

"A Dian, you have a loud voice, and you shouted to surrender with the rest of the brothers!"

With so many people, there would definitely be endless killings, and if they really wanted to slaughter them, it would probably expose the truth.

And if so many people are driven to other places, it is likely to cause local chaos.

So it's best to surrender.

…………

The soldiers obeyed Cao Ang's orders.

After finding two crowds, they rushed straight up. Although the horses under them were not wearing horse armor, this did not prevent them from chasing deserters at all.

The ferocious horses displayed great power in the hands of well-trained cavalry.

Soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army fleeing ahead.

Hearing the continuous screams from behind, he shivered even more, feeling cold all over his body.

How can two legs run faster than four?
If they continue running like this, I am afraid that with the passage of time, everyone will become the dead souls under the hooves of the pursuers.

Just when the defeated soldiers were in despair.

Suddenly there was a burst of shouts on the battlefield.

"Throw aside the weapons, those who fall to the ground will not be killed!"

"Surrender immediately, don't make unnecessary struggles!"

Shouted two sentences back and forth.

As the cavalry continued to chase.

The sound echoed across the battlefield.

After hearing the call to surrender, the Qingzhou Yellow Turban soldiers stopped immediately as if they had been pardoned.

"Clang!"

"Oh!"

for a while.

The ground was full of spears and other weapons, and many people threw them far away, wishing to cut their positions with these weapons on the spot.

And after throwing away the weapon.

Almost everyone lay down on their stomachs in a hurry, for fear that if they moved too slowly, they might become the next one to be harvested.

So three times.

Apart from the galloping cavalry and the defenders rushing to support from the rear, there was no longer a single person standing on the battlefield.

Not surrender.

It just ran out of the battlefield.

In less than half a day of fierce fighting, the victory and defeat of the two armies have been divided.

……

"General! What do you think about how to deal with it here?"

Lin Shao ran over panting, pointing at the surrendered soldiers all over the ground, and asked in embarrassment.

There are only less than [-] defenders now, even if you count the militia and young men in the county, it is only more than [-].

On the other hand, look at the soldiers who surrendered everywhere.

Even though some of them had been damaged in the previous battle, and some escaped when they were defeated, there are at least [-] people here.

This means that each Cao Jun needs to take care of six prisoners at the same time, and the ratio of the number of enemies to us is too big.

If one is not handled well.

It is very likely to lead to riots by the soldiers who have surrendered, and it will inevitably cause great trouble at that time.

Cao Ang rode on horseback.

After patrolling around.

Frowning lightly, he said: "Separate some people, and first collect all the weapons on the ground. Without weapons, the threat of their resistance will be smaller."

"Let some common people come out of the city, as well as the housekeepers of the big families, and they all come out together. Crowding together is more or less powerful."

"Separate all those who surrendered and imprison them. Anyone who is dressed differently from others should be imprisoned separately. The remaining ordinary soldiers should also be imprisoned in multiple places. Never allow too many people to be imprisoned in one place, otherwise It will be out of control.”

After county magistrate Lin took the order and left.

Cao Ang patted Dian Wei's arm again.

"A Dian, you lead the people, patrolling the arena non-stop, as long as anyone who dares to stand up, as long as there is a slight sign of restlessness, he will be killed on the spot!"

"Wrong kill, never let go!"

"The last general takes orders!"

After clasping his fists together, Dian Wei rode away majesticly with his two halberds in hand.

……

After arranging these two places.

Cao Ang looked at Cao Chun at the side again, lowered his voice, and asked quietly, "Zihe, did you send the person I asked you to send to Juancheng?"

Cao Chun also nodded quietly.

"Don't worry, general, the subordinates have already sent several people to go to Juancheng by different routes. If we run with all our strength, we will see General Xiahou in a short time."

Cao Ang nodded slightly.

When Xia Houyuan was less than a moment away, Cao Ang couldn't let go of his worries for a moment.

After all, this is not a game.

It is impossible to lead tens of thousands of wounded and surrendered soldiers around with only a thousand soldiers, and even go out to cut off food and build arrow towers.

Only when Xia Houyuan's [-]-strong army came to meet up, and the two sides together had tens of thousands of people, and he managed these prisoners at that time, he could rest assured.

"By the way, let the brothers remove the tails of the last few horses, so as not to show any flaws at this time."

Cao Chun heard the words.

Suddenly, he slapped his forehead.

Almost forgot about it.

The tails of the last few horses were tied with branches and leaves of big trees. When they galloped and charged, it was because these branches dragged on the ground that they were able to generate a lot of dust.

Thereby confusing the enemy, making them mistakenly think that there are thousands of troops coming.

Now that the enemy army has surrendered, it is necessary to cover up all these possible timid places.

…………

Post-war work was extremely complex.

Moreover, the number of captives was overloaded, and the previous battle to attack and defend the city was horrific, and even cleaning the battlefield required a lot of manpower.

So much so that after Cao Chun said a few words beside him.

I can only say hello to Cao Ang and lead a group of people into the complicated affairs.

for a while.

Only Cao Ang and a few of his soldiers remained in place.

Looking at the figure of Cao Jun getting busy up and down.

Cao Ang suddenly felt that his previous worries were really unnecessary.

It's time to be happy.

This is a big victory for us!

Winning more with less, winning ten times the number of troops, spreading the word will make him famous all over the world, and even become a warrior on the battlefield comparable to Gongsun Zan in one fell swoop.

Such a feat.

It should be exciting.

thought here.

Cao Ang couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and he stretched his waist in an extremely relaxed manner, and he let go of more than half of the burden that had been weighing on his heart for a long time.

I heard that after a general wins a battle on the front line, he will send good news to the rear.

Should I also draft a battle report and send it back to Dingtao County as soon as possible, so that my father Cao Cao is also surprised and shocked by himself?

Just do it.

After Cao Ang was ready to deal with the matter in front of him, he returned to the county and immediately drafted a battle report, and sent someone to send it back quickly.

of course.

Excitement at this time does not mean that Cao Ang is proud and complacent.

He actually understood one thing very well.

That was the luck of winning this battle.

Strong south wind, thousands of cavalry, fierce Dian Wei, the opponent is the refugees.

All these factors combined together contributed to his victory.

But one or two of them are missing.

I'm afraid the situation is about to reverse.

…………

After an entire hour.

Get there before it gets dark.

Cao Jun finally processed all the surrendered soldiers for the time being, and escorted them to the city and barracks in batches, and then only needed to maintain proper suppression.

But worth mentioning.

Among the captured enemy soldiers, there was actually a senior general, who was one of the few people who had been staying with the coach Zhang Rao.

This guy is also bad luck.

During the escape, the war horse pouted its hooves, as if it was too frightened to stand up.

only to be forced to surrender.

It was a windfall.

Generally, senior generals like this must know some specific information, such as which direction Zhang Rao and others will run after fleeing.

Also, when their troops came, how were they divided on the road, and how many people went to Yuncheng, where Zhang Liao was guarding.

Or what is the situation of the main force in the decisive battle with Liu Dai, the governor of Yanzhou, in Shouzhang.

This guy must know more or less.

Just ask hard.

Don't be afraid that this guy won't tell the truth.

After detaining this person alone, Cao Ang handed over the task to his generals who are good at torture, and at the same time asked Dian Wei to step forward.

I don't think it will take long.

He can get everything he wants to know.

And at the same time.

A few cavalrymen with order talismans left from the south gate of Linqiu County and headed towards Dingtao County at full speed.
