Xiliang Iron Cavalry

The method of scolding by the Xiliang army has also gone through a lot of training. Not to mention Xiahou Dun, no matter how good-hearted a person is, if he is scolded like this, his seven orifices will smoke.

"Sir, let General Ben go out of the city to fight them." Xiahou Dun gritted his teeth.

"General, no, have you forgotten what we discussed before?" The counselor said: "The Xiliang army is cunning. The previous battle seemed to be aboveboard. There may be many soldiers lying in ambush. The elite cavalry can attack at any time." reaction."

This time when fighting Cao Jun, all the cavalry of the Xiliang Army felt unprecedentedly happy. That's right, the enemy was a shrunken snail, which allowed them to practice their eloquence for nothing.

With the arrival of Huang Zhong's army, the stalemate on the battlefield was disintegrated. Huang Zhong's army brought not only food and grass, but also a series of siege equipment, well-made Thunderbolt chariots, shocking wells and enemy sights. The timid heavy infantry.

Jia Rong's order was very simple, to capture Hanoi with the momentum of thunder, which made Cao Cao feel fear and the determination of the Xiliang army, so as to strengthen the defense of Dongjun and prepare for the army's secret attack on Yuzhou.

"Let the soldiers of the three armies get ready to attack the county city tomorrow. They must win a single battle and make a name for the Xiliang army." In the large tent of the Chinese army, Huang Zhongduan sat on the head and said calmly.

Huang Zhong has enough confidence to break through the county city in one battle. As for the tight defense in the city, Huang Zhong thinks it is useless at all. Before coming, Jia Rong gave Huang Zhongshi the secret weapon developed by the craftsman workshop. One, the purpose is to cause panic and uneasiness in Cao Jun.

The next day, the sky was clear and the breeze was blowing. The defenders on the city had already been ready for the first siege battle of the Xiliang Army.

"The whole army is on alert. Consumable items such as boulders and arrows are all ready to give the Xiliang army a severe blow." Xia Houdun roared loudly, all the boulders should be in place, the purpose is to let Xiliang The army felt the fierce defense of Cao's army, which caused the Xiliang army's offensive to collapse.

The rumble of war drums sounded, and with Huang Zhong's order, the thunderbolt chariot and the ballista slowly stepped forward. When they were three hundred steps away from the city wall, the ballista stopped, and the crossbow arrows flew to the city one after another. Seeing such a weapon, the defenders couldn't help shrinking their heads.

The blocking of the cowhide made the crossbow bolt useless to a certain extent, but the effect was not very great. A strong crossbow bolt could even directly shoot through the cowhide.

After the Perak Chariot approached the city wall, it also began to show off its power. Stones the size of washbasins were thrown towards the city wall, causing screams from the city.

Huang Zhong's eyes did not focus on the unparalleled strength of these siege equipment, but on the ten soldiers in black clothes together with the siege soldiers. These ten soldiers are the real main force of the siege. The three secret weapons in his hand are enough to completely blow open the city gate.

Seeing the ten soldiers heading towards the city gate without hesitation, I can't help but feel a little sad. If the city gate is destroyed, these ten soldiers will die too. These are the dead soldiers in the army. They are willing to sacrifice themselves for victory. Knowing that the road ahead is a dead end, there is still no fear.

The things behind them have already been arranged properly, and their names are even engraved on the hero monument, but these people already have all the honors that a soldier can get. This is why many soldiers are willing to go to the army for the victory The cause of death, they have their own beliefs.

"Heavy cavalry ready." Huang Zhong said coldly.

Five hundred heavy cavalry stepped forward slowly and appeared in front of the army. At the same time, the hearts of all the soldiers tensed.

The heavy cavalry is the strongest on the battlefield. A heavy cavalry can cause a lot of blood and blood. Not to mention the infantry, even the cavalry will retreat when they see it. Unless the light cavalry surpasses the heavy infantry in speed, once they approach , you can only wait to die, and the heavy infantry and even the horses are equipped with armor.

"General, did the Xiliang army send out heavy cavalry?" the counselor asked, although boulders were thrown onto the city wall, the counselor still insisted on observing the situation on the battlefield.

"Hmph, heavy cavalry? Could it be that the Xiliang army wants to shoot arrows under the city? Don't forget, our army also has Thunderbolt chariots. Once the siege soldiers approach, they will start firing immediately, so that the Xiliang army can also experience the power of our army. " Xia Houdun said through gritted teeth.

Anyone who sees such casualties will be furious. The defenders of the city have not seen the shadow of the enemy, and they are so suppressed that they can't lift their heads. This kind of battle, no matter which military commander it is, will feel very aggrieved .

Ten lightly armored soldiers approached the city gate, and quickly waved the tools in their hands. The solid ground soon became potholed. The tools in the hands of these soldiers were all made of fine steel, not to mention cutting iron like mud. , is also extremely sharp.

The siege battle lasted for about a quarter of an hour. Xia Houdun felt that the city wall under his feet was trembling constantly. One of them was unable to stand firmly and almost fell. The defenders on the city were even more crooked, and there was no formation.

His ears were buzzing and his mind was dizzy. Xia Houdun looked around in confusion, and then several soldiers hurriedly carried him away.

Not to mention the defenders on the city, even the attackers were shocked. This time the secret weapon is even more powerful. This is also the result of the concerted efforts of the craftsmen in the craftsman workshop. Will not receive huge rewards after the founding of the nation.

The moment the city gate exploded, the cavalry who had already been ready to go rushed towards the gate, killing Cao Jun who hadn't reacted and fled in all directions. The four gates were quickly occupied, announcing the fall of Hanoi County. All the food, grass and supplies in the city belonged to the Xiliang Army.

In the First World War, Hanoi County was captured, and more than [-] Cao Jun were captured. It can be said that it was a complete victory. Huang Zhong dispatched fast horses to Luoyang to win, and at the same time commanded the soldiers to continue to advance forward. Cao Jun deployed heavy troops in various counties. , in order to be able to play a buffer role when the Xiliang Army raises troops one day. Unexpectedly, the heavily fortified Hanoi County was breached first, and the defenders suffered heavy casualties.

When two thousand troops attacked Wudejuan County, the county magistrate and guards in the city were taken aback by the Xiliang army's attack speed, and directly opened the city gate and surrendered.

When Cao Cao learned of the situation in Hanoi County, the Xiliang army had already attacked Yuanwu. As long as Yuanwu was occupied, they could send troops to Yanzhou East County.

Before Cao Cao became the shepherd of Yanzhou, he was the prefect of Dongjun. He was quite famous in Dongjun. In addition, he governed the local area with justice. Officials broke the law and committed the same crime as the common people. It can be regarded as the second place in Yanzhou.

Just the three-foot-high city wall and the wide moat make the enemy terrified, so there is no need to talk about attacking, but all of this is not a big problem for the Xiliang Army. The heavily fortified Hanoi County was defeated in one battle. , Dongjun's solid defense is unbelievable.

"I didn't expect that the Xiliang Army had already taken down Hanoi County, and now they are attacking Yuanwu. General Xiahou is struggling to support Yuanwu. What's your plan?" Cao Cao said in a calm tone, and his heart was already filled with turbulent waves. It seems to be advancing all the way. Cao Cao is very clear about the defense of Hanoi County. There are more than 1 defenders alone, including more than [-] defenders in the county city. Even if the Xiliang Army sends [-] troops, it is not enough. It can be conquered overnight.

"My lord, Dongjun City has high walls and a wide moat. The current plan is to think about how to resist the powerful weapons of the Xiliang Army." Xi Zhicai's eyes flashed with wisdom.

"That's right. It is said that this kind of weapon from the Xiliang Army can directly open the city gate, causing the city walls to vibrate. The soldiers on top can't stand still, and the cavalry has already entered the city. If this weapon from the Xiliang Army is difficult to If you think of a corresponding method, Yanzhou will be in danger." Mao Jie agreed.

Cao Cao nodded slightly, "I don't know this matter, and I don't know who the Xiliang Army got to help, and they have such a sharp weapon."

"My lord, the Xiliang army captured Hanoi because of superior weapons, and the key breakthrough point is the city gate. Why not order the soldiers to completely block the city gate? I don't believe that the Xiliang army can directly destroy the city wall. "Cheng Yu said slowly.

"This plan is great. Immediately send an order to Cao Zhen and Liu Ye to completely block the city gate to prevent the Xiliang army from attacking the city." Cao Cao ordered.

"My lord, what about General Xiahou who is resisting the Xiliang army in Yuanwu?"

"Let him return to the army to help Yin."

In Yuanwu City, Xia Houdun struggled to support it. The Xiliang army did not use the kind of weapon that could make the city wall tremble violently and lose the city gate. The offensive was still not what Yuanwu could resist. The Yuanwu city wall was low and there were only more than 3000 defenders in the city. People, who can withstand the three-day attack, have reached their limit.

If you don't fight the Xiliang army, you will never understand how terrible they are. They are all the best weapons, and their morale is like a rainbow. They will never retreat until the Chinese army sounds the sound of gold. The enemy's nightmare.

Before seeing the Xiliang Army, Xia Houdun always believed that the Xiliang Army was at most equal to the Cao Army, and the combat effectiveness of the two sides was equal. After all, Cao Army has fought in the Central Plains in the east and west in these years. Confidence in destroying the will of all enemies, but in front of the Xiliang army, this confidence was gradually disintegrated.

"General, more than 500 soldiers were sacrificed yesterday, and countless wounded. In less than a day, Yuanwu will fall." A general walked up to Xia Houdun, and the general's loss was eloquent. In the battle, any soldier in the army is in awe of Xia Houdun. Such a person is like a lunatic in the face of battle, regardless of his injuries. In the past three days, Xia Houdun has more than ten injuries on his body. Not heavy, still gives people a shocking feeling.
