Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 481 fierce battle
"Hurry up."

"Go to the Savior's Camp at once."

"Kill!"

"Stop messing with them."

"Rush to me!"

At this moment, the gate of the village in Cao Ying was wide open, and countless Han troops poured out like a tide.

Ma Dai crossed the river with more than 1 cavalry and raided the rear of Cao Ying. Just like the rear of the Han army, the rear of Cao Ying was almost unguarded.

Under such circumstances, Ma Dai broke through dozens of camps in the Cao camp all the way. After all, the main force of the Cao army was about five times more than the main force of the Han army, and the number of camps was also four or five times that of the Han army.

So even if Ma Dai entered the land of no one, he had to wait for a while before he reached Cao Ying's main camp. There were thousands of people defending the main camp, and the two sides fought fiercely.

It happened that Cao Zhen sent more than 1 people back to the defense. Some of them returned to the camp to fight Ma Dai, while others stayed in the front camp and fought with the Pang De army who disembarked. The two sides became somewhat similar to the frontline Han army. .

The difference is that the Han army was well-prepared and strictly guarded against death, so that the Cao army has not broken through the camp until now.

However, Cao Jun encountered an ambush that had been prepared long ago, and he did not expect that the Han army would launch a counter-outflank. Not only was the defense of the village empty, but even the Cao Jun who returned to the reinforcements had no time to form an formation, and they were scattered by Pang De.

The battlefield lasted only less than two hours, and more than 1 people in Cao's main village were almost wiped out. More than 3 Han troops gathered into rivers and began to attack the main force of Cao's army.

Cao Zhen could only order the reserves in the rear to change to the front, trying to stop Pang De and Ma Dai's offensive.

But in fact, he has almost pushed all the troops up, and the limited reserves are only a few thousand people. The sound of surging horseshoes is like a roar, and then the infantry led by Pound rushed directly towards Cao Jun who had just formed a formation. .

The two sides collided directly, and everyone was turned on their backs in an instant.Then Ma Dai's cavalry outflanked the left and right, and directly charged in from Cao Jun's flank, dividing the battlefield.

With the perfect cooperation of more than 3 Han army infantry and cavalry, Cao Jun's rear formation barely lasted for less than a quarter of an hour before collapsing.

Then a large number of Han troops continued to charge forward.

Cao Zhen on the front line was very anxious when he learned that at this time, he looked at the crumbling Han army barracks in front, which seemed to be broken but could not be broken, and then looked at the Han army that had already outflanked him, and could only order to call for gold.

Mingjin must be called at this time.

Because everyone in the Cao army was storming the camp, and when the Han army behind rushed over, it was not a question of whether they could stop it, but a question of whether the Cao army on the front line should flee or surrender, and fewer people died.

It has to be said that Cao Zhen is indeed of a certain level, at least he did not make any major mistakes in commanding.

The only problem is that most of the cases are considered dead by Shen Chen, and he is passive at every step.

At this moment, a large number of Cao Jun heard Ming Jin's voice and were shocked for a moment. They were about to break through the enemy camp, but they wanted to retreat at this time?
But after the military order was issued, they could only be forced to withdraw from the battlefield one after another, and returned to the rear like a tide.

"call!"

In the camp of the Han army, when they heard the voice of Cao Jun shouting for gold, almost all the remaining Han soldiers instinctively lost their legs, as if they were going to be paralyzed on the ground.

From this morning to the afternoon when the battle lasted, tens of thousands of soldiers died on both sides. Flowing like a river, corpses piled up like a mountain.

Even Shen Chen had to bring his personal guards back and forth to fight the fire, which showed how tragic the battle was.

But everything is worth it. The Han army not only made Cao Zhen's more than 1 cavalry sneak attacks of nearly [-] not play its due role, but also withstood the onslaught of tens of thousands of Cao troops, breaking Cao's camp for Ma Dai and Pang De Buy time, now is the time for them to reap the results.

At this time, there was chaos outside the camp. Ma Dai's cavalry arrived at the battlefield first, and then immediately set up their formation. Eighty steps away from Cao Jun, they pulled their cavalry bows and launched several rounds of shooting.

The shooting range of cavalry bows is much shorter than that of infantry bows, but since they have stirrups, they can borrow power from horses, and the range of cavalry bows and crossbows of the Han army has greatly increased. Cao Jun, who was in the formation, was shot straight into chaos.

Ma Dai turned his head and took a look. Pound's main infantry army was approaching, so he shouted, and the orderly next to him immediately blew his horn, and the cavalry on both sides turned their horses around one after another, and ran towards the left and right sides. .

As soon as they walked, Pound's pawns were exposed. Pound took the lead, riding on his iconic white horse, holding a big knife in his hand, and rushed straight into Cao Jun's formation.

At this time, Cao Jun had just recovered from the rain of arrows, and amidst the scolding, shouting, and beatings of officers at all levels, he hurriedly wanted to form an formation in place.Pang De took the lead in entering the formation, aimed at a Cao Jun and hacked him down, beheading him.

Then he brandished the broadsword in his hand, roaring like a silver dragon, reminiscent of Guan Yu's demeanor when he was young.

Immediately afterwards, [-] Han infantry poured into Cao Jun's formation like a tide. Cao Jun, who had just experienced a hard battle, was about to face the Han Army's fierce field battle in an instant, and was defeated all at once.

But fortunately, Cao Zhen ordered the withdrawal of troops in time. Seeing that the rear army could not resist, he immediately called for gold. When Ma Dai and Pang De dealt with his rear army reserve, his front army had already withdrawn quickly, and then assembled in Let's start adjusting the formation together.

This made even if they were defeated just after contact, the tens of thousands of troops did not all collapse so quickly. A large number of soldiers of the Cao army and soldiers of the Han army fought together, and there were dense crowds of people for four or five miles on both sides.

After about two quarters of an hour, the formations of the two sides began to be greatly adjusted. Pound had no formation in the first place, and directly ordered the entire army to attack.

Cao Jun was dispersed as soon as the formation was set up, and then the people on both sides fought more and more chaotically, until Ma Dai's cavalry appeared again to divide the battlefield, and the situation became different.

From the beginning, everyone huddled together and lined up in a long line to collide with each other in a straight line, and then they became fused and intertwined.It's like two parallel lines rubbing against each other, and finally become a mess.

Cao Jun and Han Jun were killing each other everywhere in the wilderness. They fought on the edge of the forest, on the grass, in the pit, and on the banks of the Yellow River. The weapons dropped and they gritted their teeth, pinched each other's necks and buttoned their eyes.

The whole battlefield is full of blood and cruelty. The April sun is shining warmly. The air was originally filled with the sweet smell of grass and flowers, but now it has become a strong smell of blood, which is pungent and blood-stimulating. rushing.

"Is there anything else that can move!"

"Have."

"Assemble the team for me!"

The main battalion of the Han army, Shen Chen was covered in blood and panting.

No fewer than 50 Cao soldiers died under his knife, and their physical strength was also exhausted.

What's more, they only had breakfast once in the morning, and they haven't eaten yet.

On the other hand, Cao Jun can take turns attacking the camps, and if he can't bear it, he will retreat first, and fill his stomach with the dry food he carries with him on the battlefield.

So in fact, most of the main Han army had reached their limit. When Cao Jun retreated, many people collapsed on the ground.

But those who can rest are the soldiers who are already safe. The soldiers who have gaps still have to find a way to plug the gaps first, and they don't lie down to rest until seven or eight camps are barely repaired.

After nearly half an hour, Shen Chen stood on the high oar overlooking the battlefield.

It can be seen that the situation on the battlefield has become chaotic now. The [-] Cao army and the [-] Han army are entangled, and the enemy and our soldiers are scattered everywhere in the wilderness, and no one has a formation.

In the midst of the noise, Shen Chen keenly noticed that about three hundred steps away from his headquarters camp, about thousands of Cao troops were rapidly gathering their forces.

In the center of Cao Jun's formation, there is a very large military flag, higher and wider than other generals' flags, standing out from the crowd.

This is the banner of General Cao Jun!
The big flag is used to stabilize the morale of the army. For example, Li Jinglong was about to win the battle of Baihegou, and a gust of wind blew down his coach's flag, directly causing collapse.

Therefore, the general's flag is much larger and more conspicuous than ordinary generals' flags, and will be seen by soldiers of both the enemy and us.

Seeing this situation, Shen Chen summoned the generals, pointed to the distance and said: "Cao Zhenzhu's big banner is in the distance, he is now fighting with Pound Madai because our soldiers are exhausted and want to strike first Retreat them, and then come to destroy us, at this time we must take the initiative to attack and kill him, in order to win the final victory."

"Great governor, give the order, the end will go through fire and water, and I will not hesitate!"

"Yes, Commander, let's kill him."

"The last general has already slashed that Cao Zhen, and is waiting for the order of the commander-in-chief!"

The generals cheered up and said.

Shen Chen thought for a moment, pointed to the distance and said, "Go out immediately and fight Cao Jun. Deng Ai Jiangwei, follow me."

"only!"

The generals responded immediately.

Deng Ai and Jiang Wei understood, and everyone split up immediately.

At this moment, Cao Zhen's big flag was erected in the rear in the distance, constantly urging the soldiers in the rear to form a formation quickly, while he himself led thousands of people to guard the rear.

In order to quickly break through the Han army camp, he was already within a hundred steps away from the Han army camp. Now he had to turn his offensive to stop Pound's attack first, and only after repelling the opponent could he turn back and continue attacking the Han army camp.

It's like a pot of raw rice, you are sandwiching me and I'm sandwiching you, everyone feels choked, but the choking is choking, you still have to swallow it, otherwise it's not you who swallow others, but others who swallow you .

At this time, the gate of the Han army's main village opened, and Wu Yaya's seven or eight thousand remaining Han soldiers rushed out, launching a violent surprise attack on Cao Zhen's banner.

The distance between them was close, and in less than 10 minutes, they came close and rushed towards Cao Zhen.

However, in the forest of Leishou Mountain on the east side, two or three thousand Cao troops who had ambushed suddenly appeared, together with the team assembled by Cao Zhen himself, all of a sudden fought with the Han army who launched a surprise attack from the rear.

Another melee followed.

But not long after that, this situation was broken.

Sun Li, who had run to the front camp before, gathered his soldiers, broke through the small part of the Han army that Shen Chen had placed behind the front camp for defense, rushed out, and began to attack the rear of the Han army.

You double-team me on both sides, and I double-team you. Raw rice and cooked rice are fried together, which suddenly makes the situation even more chaotic.

At this moment, Cao Zhen was riding on the horseback, looking around, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He knew that Shen Chen could not let go of this opportunity, so there was a high probability that he would choose to go out to fight him. Even though they were exhausted, no matter what, Cao Jun had a total size of more than 6 people.

Cao Zhen had an army of 1 in Tongguan. He stayed behind with 4 people and took 1 people across the river. Then the imperial court sent Sun Li [-], and Xu Huang asked Xu Shang to arrive with more than [-] cavalry. In this way, his total force is actually far higher than Han army.

On the side of the Han army, Shen Chen deployed 4000 men at Leishou Mountain at the beginning, and then he brought 1 people to defend, then Ma Dai 1, and Pound 2, so the total force is more than 4 , Compared with Cao Jun, there is still a gap of 1 people.

So even though Shen Chen made an anti-outflank, Cao Zhen still made the right choice many times in critical moments.He knew that after a short rest, Shen Chen's army would definitely open the gate of the camp and rush out, so he set up some ambushes.

As the Cao army ambushed and fought with the Han army, the battlefield situation became extremely anxious. The battle circle between the two sides became larger and larger, and the formation was extremely scattered. It could even be said that there was no formation. There were enemy soldiers everywhere in the wilderness.

Even Cao Zhen himself, only a few hundred personal guards were left to protect him tightly. There were always soldiers of the Han army who wanted to make contributions and attack him, but there were always other Cao troops who could stop them.

In the end, there was a vacuum around Cao Zhen. Except for the guards, there were corpses or scattered weapons and equipment in a radius of dozens of steps. Cao Jun, who was intercepted by a large number of Han troops, was shocked farther and farther away from Cao Zhen, and no one was there. Threat him again.

And in this chaos, no one paid attention to the small river flowing around the camp outside the Eastern Han military camp near Leishou Mountain, and no one could have expected that there is now a long line divided into three rows. Crouching quietly on the gentle slope by the river.

Shen Chen poked his head out.

His location was at the foot of Leishou Mountain. Because he was afraid that Cao Jun would burn the mountain madly, so his camp was a hundred steps away from the mountain.

But at the foot of the mountain, there are many rivers flowing down from the mountains. These rivers are the Sushui River in later generations, and they will flow northward when they converge in the Zhongtiao mountain area of ​​Jiangxian County.

Shen Chen led about 300 people around here from their camp in the direction of Leishou Mountain on the far left, and hid under the gentle slope.

Behind them is the vast Leishou mountain area, with dense forests, which help them obscure the enemy's vision.

Deng Ai and Jiang Wei also watched with two heads out.

I saw that the soldiers on both sides were fighting extremely chaotically on the battlefield in the distance. The Han army who rushed out from the village did not kill Cao Zhen, but was blocked by blocking on the periphery.

The good news is that Cao Zhen doesn't have many soldiers around now, and he is only a hundred steps away from their position.

But Shen Chen did not immediately order to attack, but waited patiently for a moment.

After a quarter of an hour, a group of ferocious Han soldiers rushed out of the siege and headed towards Cao Zhen. When Cao Zhen's personal guards were all focused on them, Shen Chen clenched the gallbladder knife in his hand and crawled out. After stepping up the gentle slope, the cat bowed its waist and began to move forward.

Behind him, more than 300 pro-guards also clenched the ring sword in their hands, followed behind him, and started sneaking!
