Liu Qi, the eldest son of the Three Kingdoms

() It is said that Xu Chu led an army of 5000 horses to charge the formation. Xu Shu waved the yellow flag, and Wei Yan ordered the sergeants to line up. , Ready to meet Wei Yan, Cao Cao saw the situation, and said to the left and right: "Xu Chu is defeated." He ordered Xia Houdun, and Xia Houyuan accepted Xu Chu.

Xu Chu didn't know how to fight, so he just led the troops forward and waited until Liu Qi's army was [-] paces away. Wei Yan gave an order, and the soldiers separated to reveal the [-] bed crossbows that had been prepared for orders. He blocked it, but was pierced by the arrow and pierced the shield.Immediately, people were turned on their backs, and the casualties were heavy. Hundreds of people fell to the ground, or cried out in pain and bleed to death.Xu Chu yelled, raised his sword to block, Yima rushed forward first, when other soldiers saw it, they abandoned their shields and drew their swords, and rushed over.

The bed crossbow is a monster in the crossbow family, and its invention can be traced back to the Western Han Dynasty. The "winch continuous crossbow" mentioned in "Six Secret Teachings? Military Chapter" is a kind of bed crossbow.A bed crossbow is a large crossbow mounted on a wooden frame.Install one or several large bows on the bed frame, twist the hinged shaft behind them, draw the bow and load the arrows, and use the combined force of the large bows to shoot the long arrows. The shooting range can reach 500 meters, which is the longest shooting power of ancient Chinese crossbows. The biggest one can be called the overlord of the crossbow.The arrows fired from the bed crossbow use wood as the shaft, the iron spear head as the arrowhead, and the iron feather as the tail. It is called "one gun with three swords and arrows", but it is actually a short spear with feathers. A rare weapon.

Due to the slow loading of arrows on the bed crossbow and the inconvenient firing, after one round, Wei Yan ordered people to abandon the crossbow and form an array, with the long halberd in front and the swordsmen in the back.At a distance of two hundred steps, Xu Chujun arrived in the blink of an eye, and he was only a few dozen steps away from Wei Yan's vanguard.Huang Zhong shouted: "Archers are ready to shoot arrows, she."

However, Xu Chujun is full of strong men in Qingzhou, and he has been famous as a big man in Shandong since ancient times.This is Cao Cao's famous Qingzhou soldier.Everyone is wearing heavy armor and holding a big knife, and they don't dodge, but come forward forcefully.Dozens of steps but two rounds of arrow rain only injured hundreds of people.

"Kill..." Xu Chu shouted, his voice was like thunder, shaking the sky and the earth.The soldiers behind him had red eyes, and they were encouraged to move forward with their knives.Wei Yan didn't panic when he saw this, and ordered the soldiers in the front row to sprint forward holding the long halberd.Immediately, the two armies collided, just like sparks hitting the earth, the tip of a needle pointing at a wheat awn.Sergeant Wei Yan's long halberd soldier took advantage of the long stabbing with the weapon, but did not pull it out. He threw it aside, drew his back knife, and met Xu Chujun hand-to-hand.Xu Chu's army is an elite from Qingzhou, and Wei Yan's army is not a vegetarian. The heavy infantry battalion was originally a broken camp, selected from the elite of the three armies, and after the war against Zhang Xian, it has long been an elite in a hundred battles.In addition, the armor is sharp and sharp, and Liu Qi is generous and generous, and he is not afraid of fighting.

Xu Chu killed several Wei Yan sergeants. Looking up, a young general in his twenties picked several of Xu Chu's soldiers with a spear. Xu Chu said angrily, "Wu that thief general, who are you? Tell me your name. Grandpa won't kill you." To kill the nameless ghost, you dare to fight me!"

Hearing this, Wei Yan pulled his horse over and shouted: "Black-faced fat man, look at your grandpa Wei Yan not poking a few transparent holes in you." Xu Chu shouted, opened his round strange eyes, held a steel knife, and reined in his horse. Raise the knife and chop.Wei Yan shot out like a dragon, flying up and down, like dots of white snow.Wei Yan was young and weak, but after more than 20 rounds, his marksmanship gradually changed and his strength became weak.Huang Zhong took a look, bent his bow and shot the arrow, the bow of five stones was rounded and shot, swishing like a dragon coming out of water, and went straight to Xu Chu. Flee into the formation.

Although Xu Chu was brave, he didn't know strategy or formation. He only knew how to lead his troops on a rampage, turning left and right suddenly.Rushing to the vanguard, he met Huang Zhong's general Xing Daorong, and was knocked off his horse by Xu Chu in less than a round.Turning to the left wing, the general Han Xuan led the troops, but he was cut into four sections by Xu Chulian and his horse.

Later, wherever Xu Chu went, there was no one to fight. Liu Qi's soldiers only shot arrows from a distance, and did not come to fight. There were fewer and fewer soldiers behind Xu Chu. There were more than ten arrows, but Xu Chu was wearing thick armor, and the arrows were embedded in the armor, so it was nothing serious.Counting the troops, there were only a thousand troops left in the [-] army. Xu Chu knelt down and pleaded guilty. Liu Qi's army is false, not only innocent but has made great achievements. Go down and rest to receive the reward."

"Thank you, my lord." Xu Chu was moved.

Cheng Yu stepped forward and asked, "My lord, do you have a plan to defeat the enemy?"

"No." Cao Cao replied honestly. "Although there is no clever plan to break the enemy, I can also see the flaws in Liu Qi's army."

"Why?" Xun You also asked.

"Look, even though Xu Chu rushed into the formation, the front and rear formations are still the same as before. It can be seen that there are famous generals among them, but the left and right wings are slightly blocked. It must be that Liu Qi has just practiced the formation method, and mediocre generals only know the formation. I don't know the essence of the shape. I made people pretend to attack the left wing and assist the right wing, secretly dispatching troops to the right, and responding in the middle. Liu Qi supports everywhere, and his resourceful people will definitely do the opposite, and mainly defend the right wing. At that time The big thing is settled." Cao Cao said firmly.

"Xiahoudun, Lu Qian listens to the order. The two of you lead [-] troops and attack Liu Qi's left flank in several formations."

"Xia Houyuan, Yu Jin listened to the order. The two of you will lead [-] troops, and use a sparse formation to attack Liu Qi's right wing."

"Le Jin, Li Dian listen to the order. The two of you, form a hook formation, lead [-] troops to attack Liu Qi's middle lane, and support the two lanes."

"Promise." The generals agreed.

Cao Cao sternly said: "This battle is about the survival of our army. If our army loses, Zhang Xiu will catch up with our army in half a day, attacking back and forth, and we will die without a place to die. I will lead the Chinese army to meet all the troops. , the Tiger Guards supervised the battle, and those who dared to flee and retreat, regardless of relatives or relatives, would be killed."

The generals were horrified, Cao Cao himself beat the drums and marched forward, all the generals rode forward, and the soldiers all went forward with all their might.Once the battle is fought, it is like a decisive battle, and the left and right wings are in a hurry.Xu Shu was unmoved, but told them to try their best to defend, and Cao Cao was just going all out, as long as they guard against this wave, Cao Cao's army will be defeated!

Xiahou Dun on the left wing, Lu Qian stormed the left wing and broke through the three defense lines of Cai He and Han Hao. Only [-] of the [-] army were left.Han Hao said to Cai He: "It must be reasonable for General Xu Shu not to support each other. Cao Cao's army has not moved, and our army should tighten the defense line, gather troops in one place, and fight a decisive battle. Cao Cao's army has marched for several days, and its physical strength has long been exhausted. Now it's just a breath."

Along with the joint soldiers, they attacked Xiahoudun's army instead.

After seeing it, Xu Shu discussed with Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue, and they agreed that Cao Cao's army must attack the right wing.Half an hour later, Cao Cao's army planted many banners and straw people.And Cao Cao's army of 4 horses was led by Cao Cao himself, and the whole army pressed on the right wing of Liu Qi's army.Cai Zhong was injured and fled back to the Chinese army alone.The left and right wings were originally General Cai Mao's army, and their fighting strength was not high. Although they were trained by Xu Shu for a short period of time, they were still unusable.

Xu Shu believed that Cao Cao's main force was exhausted, and seeing that the right wing was broken and the left wing was not supported, he ordered Huang Zhong to send 5000 troops to help the left wing.He personally led the [-] elite Chinese army and Huo Jun's [-] rear army to face Cao Cao's army.Liu Qi secretly thought that Cao Cao had always been treacherous, and Zhang Xiu's army must be coming for a hard battle, but he kept it secret, and only waited for Cao Cao's army to run out of strength, and then deal a fatal blow.

The battle lasted for an hour, and the two sides were red-eyed, waiting to fight until they died.Suddenly there was a sound of cannon, and a group of men and horses suddenly rushed into the formation. Just as the two sides were looking at who it was, it was, wanting to know what happened next, let's listen to the next chapter.
