Chapter 207
The range of the bed crossbow is much farther than that of the riding bow. Before the Wind Rider can launch a rushing shot in the first song, the opponent's attack has arrived first.
More than a hundred special crossbow arrows, which were as thick as a little finger and more than half a person, pierced at an incredible speed with the sound of tearing the air.
"Arrow attack! Be careful!" Zhao Ying didn't expect the range of Cao Jun's crossbow to be so far. In amazement, he shouted loudly while also making dodging moves.
Although Zhao Ying reminded him, in an instant, nearly 30 cavalry were lost in the first song. The knight who was caught was directly taken away from the horse by a powerful crossbow arrow, and the horse running behind him immediately trampled them into a bloody and bloody state.
The soldiers were angry, their roars became more and more bloody and violent, and hatred burned violently in the hearts of every soldier.
"Follow me, fight around, fight around!" Although he was heartbroken, Zhao Ying did not lose his mind and judged the situation quickly and accurately.
The rushing cavalry torrent flexibly turned southward, avoiding the front of the crossbow, and detouring to approach Cao Cao's main formation.
The soldiers of the Tiger Guard Camp also reacted very quickly, skillfully turning the crossbow chariot and adjusting the attack direction.
.
At this moment, two other cavalry troops targeting Cao Cao also appeared one after another, but their goals were completely different.
To the west, the murderous Ma Dai yelled wildly on the high-speed horse: "Accelerate, accelerate, rush up, kill Cao Cao!"
The 2,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry was like a flood breaking through the dam, roaring and roaring all the way with an irresistible momentum, carrying thousands of wind and thunder. The soldiers pointed directly at Cao Cao's commanding flag.
In the north direction, more than 3,000 Cao's cavalry ran rapidly on the plain, and their speed became faster and faster, diagonally plunging straight into the waist and abdomen of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
"Stop the enemy!" Xu Huang took the lead, and the thunder axe cut a few times in his hand, roaring wildly with full energy.
The great melee continued to spread, from the death battle of infantry to the fierce attack of cavalry...
.
After getting along with Zhang for about ten years.
Zhao Yun suddenly felt a wonderful feeling in his heart—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
The first song of the Wind Rider, which is flexible and mobile and good at shooting and attacking, may threaten Cao Cao's life at any time. Zhao Yun does not believe that under the attack of the first song, Xu Chu's Tiger Guard Camp can ensure that Cao Cao is 100% safe under the attack of the first song.
As for Cao's army, although the outcome of this battle is important, it is not more important than Cao Cao's safety in any case.
"Has it really been predicted by the military advisor?!!!" A cold light flashed in Zhao Yun's eyes, and then he paid attention to the situation on the battlefield with the light of his eyes and made a decision in his heart.
Zhang He, who was struggling to support him, suddenly felt that the pressure on his body increased exponentially.
The wind and snow silver spear, which was already extremely fast, has further accelerated. The spear's trajectory has exceeded the limit of ordinary people's eyesight, and only phantoms can be seen.
At this moment, Zhang He actually had this idea—even if he supported for three more rounds, he might die.
As a last resort, Zhang He took the opportunity to get rid of Zhao Yun. The duel that left a little embarrassedly.
Zhao Yun didn't chase him, and turned his body and shouted to the horn soldier not far away: "Blow the trumpet, blow the trumpet, change the combat plan..."
While the horn with a strange rhythm sounded, Zhao Yun led the Sanqufeng cavalry to escape from the entanglement with the Zhang He cavalry, and quickly moved south, attacking directly behind the Cao army infantry.
Leading the first song, Fengqi was in a circumnavigation state. Zhao Ying, who was looking for a fighter plane, heard the sound of trumpets from the east and immediately gave up the original order to kill Cao Cao without hesitation.
After a whistle, he also rushed south, leaving behind the "inexplicable" Cao Cao and Xu Chu.
.
Xu Huang's interception could not stop Ma Dai. The extremely high fighting spirit filled Ma Dai, driving him to attack the place where Cao Cao's flag was located regardless of everything.
"Military leader, the horn of the Fengqi military and local governments has changed its plan!" Pang De rode his horse to Ma Dai and shouted hurriedly.
"What's the change plan?" Ma Dai turned his head and stared at Pang De with red eyes. At this time, he had already left all other things behind. The only thing he thought about was Cao Cao who was already in sight.
"The second plan of the military advisor Zhuge..." Pang De pointed at the location of Cao Cao's flag and shouted, "It's not Cao Cao there. It's fake! The military leader, Cao's army is seducing us..."
Ma Dai's mind suddenly calmed down and recalled everything, but he still did not want to give up even a glimmer of hope: "Ling Ming, take someone to act according to the plan, I'll go over and take a look!"
Pang De waved his sword and cut a Cao army cavalry into two pieces, and said helplessly and anxiously: "Military Master, I will accompany you to come and let the second army commander go south first!"
"kindness……"
In a short while, the Western Liang Iron Cavalry was divided into two parts. Ma Xiu led the main force to get rid of the enemy cavalry, and turned to form three huge conical formations with the two wind cavalrymen, and rushed into the chaotic landlord battlefield.
Ma Dai and Pang De led more than 200 cavalry toward Cao Cao.
.
"Not good!" Xu Huang saw his opponent breaking out of the battle and heading south to attack Cao's infantry, and immediately knew something was wrong. He ignored Ma Dai and Pang De, and hurriedly called the cavalry to follow Ma Xiu, and joined the melee on the main battlefield after a cup of tea.
However, in just a cup of tea, it can already have a critical impact on the trend of the battle situation.
The melee on the main battlefield was basically in a stalemate——Cao’s army was large and Liu’s army was even more motivated!
But this situation was broken by the three Liu army cavalry that quickly moved south (the wind cavalry was divided into two). The rushing cavalry torrent swept across the battlefield like a gust of wind and anger, attacking Cao's army, and formed a double-sided attack with the infantry of the self-armed army in the south.
Soon, the originally solid Cao army's formation began to shake and collapse... Cao Ren, Zang Ba, Li Dian and others shouted loudly, killing soldiers who retreated privately. But the situation was still deteriorating...
After Xu Huang and Zhang He led their troops to join the melee, they were helpless to find that the opponent's cavalry was not entangled with him at all. The Liu army's infantry attacked head-on, and when they encountered the Cao army's cavalry attack, although they did not occupy the wind, they were definitely not as passive as the Cao army's infantry.
.
"Suddenly!" A shot shot flew towards Cao Cao, who was under the coach, with the sound of breaking through the air.
The gun was thrown extremely fast, and in almost the blink of an eye, he had arrived in front of Cao Cao.
"Hmph!" He shouted in a humble voice. The gun was cut off by a huge Shanjun sword. Xu Chu pulled his horse and looked at Ma Dai who was a hundred steps away. He almost walked on the line of life and death. "Cao Cao"'s face was as dark as the face, and almost fell off the horse.
All of this naturally did not escape Ma Dai and Pang De's eyes.
"Military Master, that's a fake guy! Go quickly!" Pang De cut two crossbows behind and shouted loudly.
After glaring at him hatefully, Ma Dai whistled. He rushed to the next round of crossbow arrow attacks by the soldiers of the Tiger Guard Camp, and led more than 100 cavalry to retreat south.
.
After half an hour, Cao's army could no longer maintain the stalemate and retreated to the north in chaos starting from the infantry.
Although he was very unwilling to give up. Xu Huang and Zhang He had to give up their efforts to turn the situation in the end and take on the heavy responsibility of the palace behind the palace while fighting and retreating.
The moment Cao's army retreated, at some point, tens of thousands of Liu's soldiers roared in unison, venting the joy of victory.
Immediately, under the command of Zhuge Liang, the Feng Cavalry and the Ma Dai Iron Cavalry flew around from both wings, and the large group of infantry chased and fought relentlessly from the middle.
After pursuing for more than 30 miles, it was not until the defeated Cao army met with one of its reinforcements that Guan Yu led his army out of the battle.
Within ten days, the Second Battle of Cao and Liu in Huaiyin came to an end. The casualties of both sides in this battle were all over 10,000. However, Cao's losses were almost twice that of Liu's army.
To the expectations of many Cao army generals, the Guan Yu army did not take the opportunity to attack north to expand the results of the battle. Instead, it decisively crossed the river and retreated into Guangling.

Pengcheng
A fast horse galloped into the county magistrate's mansion.
Cao Cao put Cao Rendijun urgent report on the table with a gloomy face. Many of the contents on the urgent report made Cao Cao feel a little shocking.
Cao Cao was not very angry about the failure of the battle. What made him really worried was that the series of strategies he designed were actually seen by his opponents. Among them, the stand-in plan was the most critical.
Cao Cao had long expected that his opponent might attack his back formation with cavalry. So he specially made a trick - a very portrait stand-in was arranged to replace Cao Cao himself in the back formation to attract the attention of the enemy.
Cao Cao did not believe that the enemy cavalry could withstand the huge temptation of capturing and killing "hisself".
According to Cao Cao's expectations, Xu Chu's Tiger Guard Camp dragged the enemy cavalry inside, and Zhang He and Xu Huang's two cavalry attacked him, which would be very likely to severely damage the enemy cavalry.
In Cao Cao's opinion, killing a cavalry was even greater than the damage caused to Liu Bei by five infantrymen...
However, all of this ended up in vain! In Cao Ren's report, the enemy cavalry gave up their efforts to "kill Cao Cao" and instead attacked Cao's infantry.
Obviously, there is only one explanation for this - the plan has been discovered!
"Who knew my plan?" Cao Cao lowered his head and guessed, "Zhang Fei? Zhuge Liang? Pang Tong?..."
.
There was a lot of laughter and joy on the Huai River and Ganning's commanding ship.
"The military advisor has guessed that Cao Cao might be fake, but it is really a magical idea. Yun admires him!" Zhao Yun bowed convincingly to Zhuge Liang, who was much older than him.
"It was General Zhao and General Ma who were alert in the battle, otherwise it would be useless even if Liang guessed!" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan and said with a chuckling.
"Kong Ming should be the first to win this battle!" Guan Yu smiled slightly and said, "The war in Huaibei has been over, and the third brother has successfully suppressed the rebellion. It's time to deal with Yu Jin!"
"Yu Jinji is very smart and has no limits on his own, and is quite good at using troops!" Zhuge Liang nodded and said, "And the situation on his side is very different from that here in Cao Cao. In Huaibei, Cao Cao was passive and had to be controlled by our army's advance and retreat.
But in Huainan, the situation is just the opposite. Our army is subject to the ban's advance and retreat. He takes the initiative and our army is relatively passive. If it doesn't work well, it may be retaliated by it!"
