Three Kingdoms.

If he had a choice, Cao Chun didn't want to face off against Chang Shan's army, because even if he won, there would be a lot of damage, which would not be conducive to the control of the desert grassland in the later stage. At the same time, Chang Shan's army only controlled the northern hussars. Mo's right arm and his left arm are in Yinshan, so even if he wins Changshan, if the loss is too great, it means losing the entire desert.

 But now, in order to find out the movements of Chang Shan's army, Cao Chun had to launch an attack.

 The weather is cold...

 Cao Chun cannot build an altar like Brother Tuzhu, draw talismans and recite incantations...

 The Hu people are obviously not so obedient anymore, and one of the ways to make the Hu people be obedient is to show enough force.

 Under the leadership of Cao Chun, Cao's cavalry finally showed the results of all previous training.

 But Cao Chun didn't know what was coming to greet him.

 After all, they have never experienced Chang Ban Slope, and no one in Cao Jun fully understands Zhao Yun’s core strength...

Cao Chun thought that Zhao Yun's victory was just with the help of elite cavalry?

 He has it now too!

 Hands akimbo.

 Stare.

Shout loudly, I’m going to fight the elite...

Indeed, this moment is the highest point of Cao Chun's confidence.

 Cao Chun killed an opponent who was about to chop his horse, then turned sideways to avoid the spear of the hussar on the left, and slashed his arm with a backhand knife, and blood spurted out.

Cao Chun rushed to the front, and his bodyguards followed closely behind, gradually launching sharp attacks like awls.

Cao's cavalry followed the training instructions and arranged in an orderly manner. The soldiers on the outside were responsible for killing the enemy cavalry, while the soldiers on the inside were responsible for supplementing the casualties on the outside. At the same time, they used bows, arrows and crossbows to assist their comrades, either to make up for the damage or to kill. It's a rescue.

Cao Jun tried to turn into a hungry wolf with red eyes, opened his **** mouth and pounced on him fiercely, bit him, stretched out his sharp claws and tore at Zhao Yun's soldiers desperately. However, when Cao Jun tried to invade Zhao Yun's soldiers, he unknowingly However, he suffered more damage from Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses.

On the entire central battlefield, Cao Chunjun and Zhao Yunjun were fighting each other to the death, while far away on the two wings, there seemed to be a very tacit "sit-in demonstration". The barbarians on both sides shouted loudly and made a lot of noise. But there was no real physical fight, it was more like fighting with sound and dust.

 There is only one alpha wolf in the desert.

 When the alpha wolf is fighting, the other wolves in the pack usually howl on the side. After the alpha wolf decides the winner, the other wolves will really start to move.

Cao Chun and Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses were entangled and fighting. The dull sound of swords and guns entering the body, the scream of long arrows piercing the air, the collision of swords, the sound of broken bones, heart-rending screams, the sound of galloping hooves of war horses, and the roar of life-threatening fighting. Sounds, various sounds intertwined together, mixed into a huge roar.

Zhao Yun's cavalry gradually gathered together, like a long sword, piercing directly into Cao Chun's front army, and quickly defeated Cao Chun's front army array.

Although Zhao Yun was flanked by Cao Chun and his soldiers, Zhao Yun's arrow array was very sharp when breaking through, and it was directly pierced...

It is true that if the front array cannot be concentrated enough, it will not have the power to break the opponent's array.

 Zhao Yun's movements were too fast, beyond Cao Chun's expectation.

 Cao Chun's plan is correct in its plan.

He abandoned the front army at the beginning, and then judged that Zhao Yun would lead the main force directly towards his center army, in order to disrupt and break through the opponent's center, kill the generals and capture the flag to win.

 This is the tactic used in Shanxi, Youbei, Yongliang and other places in the Han Dynasty. It is the most worrying plan for most cavalry operations.

Cao Chun guessed that Zhao Yun would do this, so he abandoned the front army like a gecko with its tail cut off, and then used the smoke and dust raised by the front army to cover the sight of Zhao Yun's army and horses. He led the center army and the left wing, forming two weapons, one heavy and one light. The hammer hits Zhao Yun from the side of the piercing long sword. It is best to let the sharpest point of the sword pass, and then break the second half of the long sword and swallow it...

 The front army blocks the attack, uses the heavy wings to outflank, and the auxiliary wings to support, with the outflank as the center of the battle.

 Perfect plan.

In this way, if Zhao Yun wants to go around and bite, he can only chase Cao Jun's ass, and then Cao Chun can wait for an opportunity to take Zhao Yun and lure him towards the Black Stone Forest.

Cao Chun even hoped that Zhao Yun could attack him single-handedly, and then Cao Chun could ask his bodyguard to take out the powerful crossbow that had been prepared long ago, give Zhao Yun a fatal blow, and immediately take Zhao Yun's head, announcing that this time A great victory in the encounter...

But what Cao Chun didn't expect was that Zhao Yunjun lined up a long and thick array of impact arrows without any wavering or hesitation, just like a reckless bison, charging without stopping at all!

 The key is that it’s too fast!

It was so fast that Cao Chun attacked sideways with heavy and light intrusions on both sides. It was like scratching a bison, leaving a few **** marks, and maybe biting some flesh, but there was not much damage to the whole.

In order to gain speed, Zhao Yun's cavalry did not have any entanglement with Cao Jun at all. They cut if they could and shot if they could. Regardless of whether they hit the target or not, they just left with one strike and charged forward without hesitation, leaving Cao Jun with both sides. The outflanking action fell into the empty space, and Cao Jun's rear array, which attempted to outflank Zhao Yun's cavalry, fell into the empty space.

So a strange scene appeared on the battlefield. After Zhao Yun led his men to break through Cao Jun's forward, they rushed directly out of the space that Cao Jun deliberately gave up without stopping. Then the two wings led by Cao Chun wanted to bite However, due to the difference in distance between straight lines and arcs, Zhao Yun's **** opened a wide mouth, only to get a mouthful of dust.

This is a cavalry battle. The judgment and choice made in a moment will determine the subsequent changes, and the subsequent choices will produce new changes...

If Zhao Yun had a slight hesitation after breaking through Cao Jun's front army, or because he wanted to kill more Cao Jun cavalry, then Zhao Yun would have blocked his way forward, and waited until Cao Chun led the two wings When people come up, they will inevitably be attacked from both sides. No matter how powerful Zhao Yun is, it is impossible for him to resist in two places at the same time.

 A person always has only one front, the eye range and attack direction are forward, and the sides and back are weak points. Even if Zhao Yun is highly skilled in martial arts and is not afraid of weak points, what about other ordinary hussars?

But now Zhao Yun led the cavalry without stopping at all, neither greedy for credit nor hesitation, so naturally there was no congestion, and he slipped out smoothly. Not only did he eat most of Cao Jun's front army in vain, but also let Cao Jun's The pincer attack failed.

At this moment, Cao Chun naturally couldn't give Zhao Yun a chance to reorganize his team and charge again. He could only bite Zhao Yun's **** with all his strength...

 Zhao Yun also started to turn around with his people.

 Then the two sides began to form a fighting posture, chasing each other's butts.

In such a situation, unless one of the parties leaves part of the team behind and conducts a life-saving interception, they can change from being entangled with each other. However, the troops left behind to intercept can easily be knocked through by the other party in one go. Once hit by the other party, If it is penetrated, interception and outflanking are out of the question, just like Cao Chun's failed strategy just now, so neither side will change the formation easily.

　　Until both sides had circled twice, Cao Chun gritted his teeth, abandoned part of his buttocks, and turned towards the Black Stone Forest.

 Cao Jun's chrysanthemums were suddenly filled with blood.

As soon as Cao Chunyi retreated, the Hu troops belonging to Cao Jun's camp also retreated immediately without saying anything.

The barbarians were running around, making Cao Chun grit his teeth with hatred. He swore that if he defeated Zhao Yun in the Black Stone Forest, he would use the force to kill all these barbarian leaders and support him again. The agent is here!

 …

 …

 Zhang He was also leading people to run towards the Black Stone Forest.

After several repeated attempts, Zhang He was able to roughly guess an answer from the Semu people who could not communicate. That is, Zhang He seemed to have killed one or several important roles among the Semu people, so these Semu people were like It bit him like a mad dog.

Perhaps in the eyes of the Semu people, Zhang He's numbers were not large, and it was not worth the Semu people to swallow their anger.

After Zhang He judged the answer, he immediately ran directly to the Black Stone Forest regardless of the situation.

The reason why he was entangled with these lustful people before was because Zhang He thought that he could show force or let these lustful people retreat before they could disturb the original plan. However, after a period of time, he discovered that these lustful people were not allowed to disturb the original plan. It's like sticky candy and can't be shaken off. The more you hit it, the more energy you get...

So now Zhang He could only take the "Nuubi Candy" and run all the way into the Black Stone Forest.

The Black Stone Forest is a medium-sized forest that is famous for the presence of black stones in the forest. Before the Han Dynasty, the use and understanding of coal were very general. Perhaps it was because direct combustion of untreated coal would produce a large amount of sulfide gas and other toxic gases. Therefore, even if some brave men started to use coal, they would often The record that these coals were toxic and unusable was left behind. It was not until the large-scale mining and use of coal in Guanzhong that people in Shandong gained a new understanding of coal.

Black Stone Forest is such a location that has been explored, but the storage capacity is not large and it is relatively remote. It can even be said that the amount of coal here is not even valuable for serious mining. The coal seams are too thin and sparsely distributed. However, it is precisely because of this that there is room for some forests to grow.

Zhang He didn't know what Cao Jun's specific arrangements were in the Black Stone Forest. He was just heading towards the Black Stone Forest with a few large and small tails.

 This is also a helpless move.

 Semu people also have war horses.

These Semu people's war horses may have some shadows of Shire horses. They are taller than Xiliang horses, covered with long hair, and have strong bodies. They are obviously more adapted to the cold northern desert area. They may have evolved in later generations. There are some war horses in Northern Europe, but now there is also great pressure on Zhang He and others.

  If the Semu people do not have cavalry, Zhang He still has extra room for choice.

 But these Semu people's war horses are not afraid of the cold and have more endurance. If the delay continues, it will definitely be Zhang He and others who will freeze to death from exhaustion.

 As a result, Zhang He could only choose to rush towards the Black Stone Forest regardless...

 Such a choice is not a good choice most of the time.

Normally, this kind of long-distance division of troops requires a certain amount of contact when reaching the strategic target to ensure that the effectiveness of the joint attack is maximized. Otherwise, each attack will give the other party a chance to defeat each other. .

 The problem is, Zhang He now has to drag his tail...

These Semu people undoubtedly have very strong abilities in tracking. Zhang He didn't know how these Semu people found the correct direction in the desert and tracked the traces of Zhang He and others. However, Zhang He could not wait until the threat of the Semu people was resolved before marching. That would undoubtedly delay things. In fact, Zhang He has already wasted time, and now he can only make up for it as much as possible.

 Hence, Zhang He could only take a risk without contacting Zhao Yun.

 In the distance, the black stone forest was revealed where Zhang He could see it.

 …

 …

 In the battlefield, it is extremely difficult to deliver orders.

 Especially when the scene is chaotic.

 This is the disadvantage of frontline generals.

When attacking, he is extremely sharp. He can discover the opponent's flaws anytime and anywhere, expand the attack, or attack the opponent's military formation, kill the generals and capture the flag, or shock and shatter the opponent's line, causing chaos in the opponent's formation, and then establishing victory.

But when there is a problem with the leading attack, due to the field of vision, the frontline generals cannot see clearly the changes in the entire battlefield in time. They can only see the area in front of them. Even if they want to command other troops to coordinate, It is also very difficult.

Lu Bu is undoubtedly the **** of death on the battlefield and an absolute general. But once Lu Bu retreats, he instantly changes from a hero to a bear. He will also be kicked on the **** by generals who are obviously not as powerful as him...

Cao Chun's force value is naturally not as good as Lu Bu's, so when he retreats, he cannot micromanage his troops at all. He can only endure the pain of having his tail cut off and rush to the Black Stone Forest as quickly as possible.

 After testing, Cao Chun has now determined that the Changshan Army is indeed commanded by Zhao Yun, or at least a troop commanded by a fairly qualified cavalry general. This is inconsistent with the intelligence obtained by Cao Chun!

 Damn it!

Now we can only rely on the Black Stone Forest.

Although part of the front and rear armies were lost, most of Cao's cavalry remained, and during the entanglement and attack with Changshan's army, they also caused some damage to Changshan's army. Overall, it can only be regarded as a small loss. . If we can use the traps in the Black Stone Forest to trap most of the Changshan Army, then we can still make money.

 The cavalry ran with all their strength, very fast, and their ears were filled with the sound of horse hooves. The horses became more and more excited as they ran, and their hooves flew into the air. Cao Chun looked back and saw the flag of Changshan Army following far behind. He couldn't help but feel relaxed and thought he had a plan.

 …

 …

"Full speed ahead…"

 Zhang He shouted loudly.

The troops' galloping speed suddenly increased, but the war horses' breathing gradually became heavier, puffing and spitting white foam, and their physical strength was approaching its limit.

　　　　General! The horsepower can't support it anymore! 』

 Zhang He's guard reminded.

 Zhang He looked back and said, "We must keep a certain distance!" Slow down after rushing through the black stone forest! 』

The Cao army who stayed behind in the black stone forest had discovered Zhang He and his party, and a warning gong sounded in the forest. Because most of the war horses were taken away by Cao Chun, there were not many cavalry left in Black Stone Forest, and their combat effectiveness was relatively average. Most of the rest of Cao's soldiers were infantry, so when they discovered that Zhang He and others were coming from the west, these Cao's soldiers did not have the courage to attack directly. Instead, they formed a defensive formation on the edge of the Black Stone Forest.

 If you don't know the opponent's situation or the number of incoming enemies, and without accurate information, you generally won't choose to attack rashly. If you are defeated by the opponent in one fell swoop, wouldn't it delay and affect the overall defense system?

 According to the original defenses, block the opponent, determine the situation, and then launch a targeted counterattack. Under normal circumstances, such a move is undoubtedly safe.

 However, Zhang He came who did not follow common sense, and came from a direction that Cao Jun was not prepared for!

 The edges of the Black Stone Forest are irregular.

Cao Jun raised his sword and spear and opened his bow on the edge of the forest.

 Zhang He led the men towards the black stone forest.

In the distance, the Semu people were riding horses that were a head taller than Zhang He and others, shouting and screaming.

 Zhang He led his troops, roaring, passing by the edge of the black stone forest, and then disappeared on the other side of the black stone forest.

Because Zhang He did not enter the defensive position of Cao Jun, Cao Jun did not fire arrows in vain.

Many Cao soldiers were wondering why Zhang He was running around the Black Stone Forest without attacking. When the Semu people arrived in the distance, they seemed to be even more powerful than Zhang He and others.

The men were bigger, the horses were stronger, and their howling voices were louder, which made many Cao Jun subconsciously look in the direction of those lewd men.

Where did these monsters come from?

Are you with Zhang He?

To the Semu people, there seemed to be no difference between Zhang He and others and the soldiers of Cao's army in front of them.

 Due to the angle of view, these **** did not notice that Zhang He was running around the woods, but as if he had entered the woods.

In particular, the Semu people discovered that these Cao Jun soldiers at the edge of the Black Stone Forest had the same skin color, the same attire, and the same flag as Zhang He and others. Well, maybe there was a little difference, but most of them were the same. The arrows are all the same!

The Semu people howled and waved the battle axes and wooden clubs in their hands to express their anger and condemnation that their important tribesmen were brutally killed by Zhang He...

For these semen, if they are killed in battle, there is nothing to complain about, and it is even an honor for warriors. But if they are tortured to death, it is an unforgivable insult that will make them The souls of the dead warriors cannot rest in peace, and they have brought shame to their tribe.

 Zhang He conducted "experiments" to understand the body functions of these lustful people, dismembering corpses and turning living people into ice sculptures...

 When it comes to this kind of issue of faith, there is no reason or logic at all. For example, even God knows that you must take at least one day off after working for six days, but the capitalists’ beliefs are 996 and 007, and they shamelessly talk nonsense. Can they be said to be rational and logical?

There was a language barrier between Zhang He and the Semu people, and Cao Jun was also unable to communicate with these Semu people. When these Semu people followed Zhang He and approached the Black Stone Forest, Cao Jun's soldiers naturally shot arrows at these Semu people. , trying to prevent these lustful people from approaching, but such actions angered these lustful people even more.

The Semu people roared, mistaking Cao Jun's soldiers as reinforcements for Zhang He and others, or thinking that the Black Stone Forest was the base camp of Zhang He and others. They rushed up angrily, swinging their battle axes and clubs, butting against Cao Jun's arrows. Arrow, rushed into the black stone forest...
