The Liaodong Iron Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 459

After several rounds of shooting, Cao Jun's archers suffered heavy casualties.Not long after, the gate of Cao Jun's camp opened wide, and Cao Hong led Cao Jun's cavalry to rush out, aiming at the archers of Youzhou Army.

Of course, the archers in Youzhou were not fools, so under such circumstances, they naturally had to switch formations.Compared with the cavalry in Youzhou, Cao Jun's cavalry in front of him is simply not enough.

"Boys, follow me to kill!" The cavalry who rushed out of the camp, led by Cao Hong, rushed towards the Youzhou archers aggressively.

"Command, send cavalry to play with them!" Huo Yu ordered on the spur of the moment when he saw Cao Jun's cavalry rushing out.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Today's Youzhou cavalry, in addition to Huo Yu's personal guard Feiyu cavalry and Zhao Yun's white horse Yicong, there are also wolf cavalry composed of Xianbei, Wuhuan, Xiongnu and Han Chinese.

After conquering the three tribes, under Huo Yu's instruction, a systematic project of sinicization of foreign tribes began. Of course, this cannot be completed in a short period of time.

The nomads on the grasslands have always been brave and ruthless, and worship the strong.After being conquered by the Youzhou Army led by Huo Yu, he seemed submissive in the face of powerful force, and it was not surprising that he was conscripted as a source of soldiers.

Huo Yu was reluctant to waste such a good source of cavalry.Of course, people will always be killed in conscription and war. On the one hand, it can consume the strength of all ethnic groups, and on the other hand, they will be given generous and equal treatment. Over time, these former prairie wolves have been used by Huo Yu.

The collision of cavalry is always so tragic, the two sides fight to the death, and the whole combat area is turned upside down for a while, and the battle is equal in a short time.

"Kill! Those who stand in my way will die!" Cao Hong, who rushed to the front, was extremely brave, and many Youzhou cavalrymen died tragically by his sword.

However, the disadvantage of the number of people and the gap in equipment are gradually reflected.No matter how brave Cao Hong was, he couldn't stop the ubiquitous attacks from all around. Slowly, Cao Jun's cavalry began to retreat.

"Retreat, retreat quickly!" Cao Ren turned his horse's head and ordered loudly, avoiding the three Youzhou cavalry in front of him with a single blow.

The two sides fought fiercely for nearly half an hour, and more than half of Cao Jun's cavalry had died in the battle. If they did not retreat, I am afraid that all the cavalry in front of them would be left here.

Beating the dog in the water is the strength of the Youzhou cavalry. They followed and killed them all the way to the gate of Cao Jun's camp, only to be blocked by the rain of arrows shot from the camp.

"Zhou Cang, order the archers to continue attacking!"

"promise!"

Cao Jun's cavalry was repelled, and Huo Yu again ordered the archers to attack from a new formation.Attacking the enemy's weaknesses with one's own strengths and seeing that you can't beat them is the most morale-destroying method.

"Huh~" Suddenly, several black spots flew out of Cao Jun's camp.

Huo Yu looked at it calmly, and immediately cursed: "No, trebuchet!"

Huge boulders came whistling with the sound of the wind. In the first round of throwing, three boulders accurately fell into the array of Youzhou archers.

"what!."

The stone fell to the ground and rolled forward several meters by inertia, and all the soldiers who were hit died.Occasionally, there were still a few people who were lucky enough to survive, and they uttered miserable cries.

"Withdraw, the whole army retreats!" Huo Yu hurriedly issued the general order.

But it was too late, and it took time for the army of more than 6 people to retreat.Not long after, the boulders thrown in the second round came with the sound of bitter wind. Although only one-third of the boulders hit the target, it still made Huo Yu's heart bleed.

In Cao Jun's camp, Cao Cao stood on a high platform, watching the results of the catapult with joy.With a sharp weapon, I can finally express the suffocation in my chest.

Seeing Huo Yu lead his army away, Cao Cao heaved a long sigh.I finally survived the day, and I don't know how long I can last like this.If I hadn't been prepared, I'm afraid today's battle would be difficult!
"Zhongde, how long will it take to assemble all [-] trebuchets?"

"Report to the lord, assemble it overnight, and it will be completed tomorrow."

Hearing Cheng Yu's answer, Cao Cao nodded in satisfaction, so that he could stick to it for several days.Although his catapult technology was plagiarized from Youzhou, the few days he gained was enough time for him to complete the plan in his heart, and the victory or defeat of the decisive battle at Guandu depended on it.

After being fooled by Cao Cao, the Youzhou Army returned disappointed.The bitterness that the enemy suffered in the past actually happened to him today.

"Damn it, this Marquis was negligent!" Huo Yu said to himself as soon as he entered the big tent.

"My lord, do you want to call the craftsmen nearby?" Xi Zhicai immediately asked.

"Order Zhang Yun to gather the catapults stored in Jizhou to come to Guandu, and call the craftsmen of the Mohists to help!"

"No!" The guards took the order and left, Huo Yu turned to look at the sand table in the big tent.

In the early morning of the rising sun, Huo Yu continued to send Zhao Yun to lead his troops to challenge.

As soon as the three-way war drum sounded, Zhao Yun led [-] white horse followers and [-] wolf riders out of the camp.

"Listen, Cao Jun, but Zhao Zilong in Changshan, who dares to fight?" When he came to Cao Jun's camp, Zhao Yun ordered the army to stay no more than [-], and shouted alone.

However, the answer Zhao Yun was waiting for was Cao Jun's free card again!

"Hmph! Look at the arrow!" Enraged, Zhao Yun hung up his gentian silver gun, took out his bow and arrow, and shot at the free battle card.

There was a bang, and the free card that had just been hung up fell to the ground and cracked.An arrow was stuck on the girder of the camp gate, penetrating three points, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling unceasingly.

The power of this arrow scared the listed Cao soldiers into hiding.

"Hahaha! Cao Jun dare to fight?" Zhao Yun continued to shout.

After one day's battle, Cao's army stayed behind closed doors and did not fight, so Zhao Yun had to lead his army back to return to his command.However, Huo Yu is not good at anything.

"Come out behind closed doors? Then this Marquis will let you live in peace!" Thinking of this, Huo Yu ordered someone to find Guan Yu.

After sunset, under the leadership of Guan Yu, the Youzhou army, which was full of food and drink, headed towards Cao Jun's camp with great fanfare, without any intention of hiding.

When Cao Cao got the report, the word night war popped into his mind.Of course, he was just thinking about it, Huo Yu must have other intentions in this move.

"Boom, boom, boom!" The battle drums outside the camp gate shook the sky, and the Youzhou army began to shout.

After a while, Cheng Yu appeared in front of Cao Cao.

"My lord, the Youzhou army called for battle, but they didn't raise fire. It's really meant to be harassment!" Cheng Yu bowed to Cao Cao.

"A strategy for tired soldiers?" Cao Cao asked differently.

"Of course!"

Cao Cao pondered, it seems that there is no good countermeasure.Under the night, the opponent could not be seen clearly, and the trebuchet lost its target.

If they went out to fight, how many Youzhou troops would be lurking in the vast night?Cao Cao was not sure.However, Cao Cao knew that the Youzhou army was good at night battles.

Under such a situation, could it be that he could only bear it?Yangmou, this is an upright Yangmou.Huo Yu calculated that Cao Jun would not dare to fight, so he arranged it like this just now.

"Xu Huang, Xu Huang, I hope you don't disappoint me!" Cao Cao sighed helplessly and had to endure it for the time being.
