The Three Kingdoms are invincible

Since the north has just been established, there are a series of complicated things that need to be handled by Cao Cao in person, so Cao Cao did not personally lead the army this time.

Appointing Xia Houyuan as commander in chief, Gao Shun, Zhao Yun, Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and Zhang Yun as his deputy, plus a group of partial generals and generals, Cao's army totaled [-] people and marched out of the Great Wall to attack Xianbei.

After unifying the north, Cao Cao began to further develop the cavalry, and established an elite force from it, named Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

The tiger and leopard riders were selected extremely strictly. In terms of the criteria and standards for selecting soldiers, they could definitely compete with Gao Shun's camp and Zhang He's euphorbia soldiers.It is said in history that Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are "all powerful in the world, or they will be made up by hundreds of people". Although this sentence may be exaggerated, in any case, it also reflects from the side that the combat power of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is definitely first-class one.

Due to the short development time, the current scale of Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is only 800 people.But these 800 people are all warriors who can stand up to ten.Cao Cao believed that even if he faced the foreign cavalry who claimed to be born on horseback and could ride horses, as long as the number of both sides was the same, the result would be that the tiger and leopard cavalry would win!

During this expedition, all the eight hundred tiger and leopard riders accompanied the army and were under Xia Houyuan's command.In addition, the number of Gao Shun's trapped camp had also recovered to 200 at this time, and Zhang Yun's euphorbia soldiers also made up the number of 3000.

These three troops, with a total of 5000 people, are the most powerful and brave soldiers in Cao Ying.

Cao Cao once said in private: "These three elite soldiers gather together, even if the enemy's strength is ten times that of them, it will take a lot of trouble to win."

In March of the third year of Jian'an (AD 198), one hundred thousand troops left the Great Wall and marched towards Wuyuan County.

During the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty ordered Wei Qing and Huo Qubing to go on an expedition outside the Great Wall and completely expelled the Xiongnu from the Hetao area, and established Shuofang County and Wuyuan County in their land, which were included in the territory of the Han Dynasty.

However, by the end of the Han Dynasty, the country was weak, and no one cared about taking care of these marginal areas, let alone setting up sheriffs and the like.Shuofang, Wuyuan and other places have been abandoned for a long time, and sometimes they are often occupied by foreign races.Residents who originally lived in these areas either chose to move south, or simply moved north to seek refuge with other races.

The Xianbei army wanted to attack the border, and these abandoned cities were undoubtedly the best outposts for them.

We must be the first to station in Wuyuan County before those alien races, so as to gain the upper hand in this war.

———————————————————————————————————— Jiuyuan County is the county seat of Wuyuan County, and it is also the flying general Lu Bu hometown.

When Xia Houyuan led the army to the outside of Jiuyuan City, he found that the city gate was closed tightly, and there were Xianbei soldiers guarding the top of the city.

It's still a step late, but they can't be blamed for this. The Xianbei territory is not far from Jiuyuan City. It couldn't be easier for them to occupy this Jiuyuan County before the Han army.

"Siege the city!" Seeing that the city was occupied by the Xianbei army, Xia Houyuan ordered without hesitation.

Although Jiuyuan City has fallen into the hands of foreign races, there is nothing to worry about, just take it back by force.

These alien races are really good at fighting on the plains, but their ability to attack and defend cities is not so good.

As soon as Xiahouyuan's military order was issued, the whole army marched forward in an orderly manner, attacking the city in batches.

The Xianbei soldiers on the city were panicked and inexplicable when they saw an army attacking the city suddenly.

Obviously, the arrival of the Han army was absolutely unexpected by them.

According to the information they have learned, the north of the Han Dynasty has just experienced a great war, and it is at a time when it is turbulent and weak.Moreover, it is said that the two northern princes of the Han Dynasty fought fiercely. Now that the battle is over, even the winning side has a relatively small army, and it is impossible to have spare power to deal with Xianbei's offensive.

Therefore, after the Xianbei army entered Jiuyuan City, it seemed very relaxed, without any vigilance at all.

They never expected that the army of the Han Dynasty would suddenly appear in front of them, and the opponent turned out to be such a large army.

This army is only a pioneer, there are no more than [-] people in total, and judging by the posture of the enemy army, there are [-] if not [-].

The Xianbei people panicked all of a sudden, defending the city?They have never had a similar experience.Even facing the enemy army under the city now, they don't even know what to do.Not to mention that the number of Xianbei soldiers in the city is far less than the number of Cao Jun outside the city, which makes these Xianbei people overwhelmed and terrified.

"Calm down! Calm down, call a group of eagle shooters to send arrows to the city!" It was a thousand-man general who shouted, and it could be seen that compared to ordinary Xianbei soldiers, this thousand-man general could be regarded as a hero. Very knowledgeable, at least he also knows how to use bows and arrows to fend off the enemy.

The eagle shooter, as the name suggests, is the person who can shoot down the big eagle in the sky. It was originally the Xiongnu's laudatory name for the sharpshooter among the tribes.The Xianbei and the Xiongnu are both horse-backed peoples. Naturally, there are many good archers in the tribe, so this name is used.

The eagle shooters were transferred to the top of the city one after another, and shot arrows at the Han army below the city one after another.

However, the only way for Xianbei to defend the city is archery, and methods such as wood, rolling stones, and hot oil have never been thought of.But even if they know that there are other ways to defend the city, as a county town that has been idle for a long time, there are no such things to defend the city at all.

Without wood, rolling stones, hot oil, etc., the effect of archery alone will not be much better.After all, even if you are a good archer like Huang Zhong, there is no guarantee that every arrow can hit someone in this kind of chaotic battle, let alone every arrow can kill someone.

Besides, eagle shooters were hard to come by. Among ten thousand soldiers, it was not easy to find six or seven hundred eagle shooters.When a round of arrows rains down, dozens of people are usually shot to death.If a round of arrow rain can kill hundreds of people, it would be considered the great luck of the Xianbei Army.

Cao Jun's siege progressed very smoothly. Although the troops at the forefront would inevitably suffer losses, the losses were completely within the tolerable range of Cao Jun.

Some people have already climbed to the top of the city and killed the eagle shooters on the city.

Generally speaking, when the siege troops climbed to the top of the city, the morale of the defenders would be more or less low.But for these Xianbei people, who are not good at defending the city, they are more inclined to this kind of almost cruel hand-to-hand combat, and the hand-to-hand combat on the top of the city can arouse their bloodiness even more.

Therefore, the process of Cao Jun's attack on the top of the city was quite smooth, but after arriving at the top of the city, the situation gradually fell into a stalemate.

Before Cao Jun attacked the city, these Xianbei soldiers did panic for a while.However, after Cao Jun actually launched the offensive, they forgot all fear, and their eyes were full of bloodlust.

This is the horror of the grassland aliens.

The Xianbei people are extremely brave. Although the scimitars in their hands are not as long as the spears, they are better than the sharpness. Coupled with their fearless aura, the soldiers of Cao Jun who climbed to the top of the city were almost killed by the opponent. The meaning of driving down the city.

"Miaocai, let me fall into the camp." Seeing that the situation at the top of the city was unfavorable, Gao Shun challenged Xia Houyuan.

"En." Xia Houyuan nodded, agreeing to Gao Shun's request to play.
