The first thousand three hundred and forty-four chapters lead the king into the urn
The fake messenger returned to Cao Cao and reported: "Reported to the King of Wei, the news has been delivered. Liu Xian has no doubt at all. He has issued an order to prepare to launch a raid tonight!"
Cao Cao was overjoyed and frowned and said, "Whether you can turn defeat into victory depends on this battle tonight!"
The sky gradually became darker, and before I knew it, the sun disappeared into the sky and the moon hung on the treetops.
Wang Yi led more than a thousand cavalry to hide in the woods outside the East City Gate and observe the movements of the East City Gate. Although it was too late, the east City Gate was silent and there was no movement at all.
At this time, a team entered the woods where they were from behind Wang Yi and the others.
A general, led by Wang Yi's subordinates, came to Wang Yi and clasped his fists and said, "General! Your Majesty ordered me to lead my army to support the general!"
Wang Yi was a little surprised when he heard this.
The general took out a roll of bamboo slips and presented them, saying, "This is your Majesty's handwritten letter, please read it!"
Wang Yi took the bamboo slips and opened them to look at them. A very surprised expression appeared on his face.
"General, there is something going on!" A female soldier next to him suddenly pointed at the city gate and shouted.
Wang Yi immediately looked at the city gate. With the light of the moon, she saw the city gate open and thousands of Cao troops came out quietly. Following those Cao troops were a large number of people.
However, those people seem to be not ordinary people, they are dressed in light clothes, and there are many carriages, obviously all from wealthy families.
Wang Yi frowned and said, "It's started!" He turned his head and said, "Report to the lord immediately, there are signs of enemy retreating outside the East City Gate!"
After nightfall, Liu Xian had already assembled the entire army.
Not long after, I received a report from Wang Yi and learned that Cao's army's retreat had begun.
Liu Xian looked up at the magnificent city in front of him, raised his right hand and sang: "Start!"
A hundred thousand heavy armored infantry launched, leading other troops to rush towards the west gate; the black-clothed team, led by Xue Yan, had already climbed the city wall, attacked the sentries of Cao's army, and immediately opened the city gate.
The special large truck carrying the wooden bridge first advanced to the moat, and then the officers and soldiers on the truck quickly controlled the winch on the truck and placed the wooden bridge on the moat. In the past few days, the military camp was driven out under the guidance of Huang Yueying.
Several wooden bridges were found.
As soon as the wooden bridge was built, the tide of heavy infantry as the vanguard immediately crossed the moat through the floating bridge and poured into Yanzhou from the city gate.
At this time, Cao Cao was standing on a high place and looking at Liu Xian's army entering the city, with a calm expression. However, Xun You, Xu You and others beside him all looked very nervous.
No wonder, although they have already put down a huge pocket, Liu Xianjun has strong combat power, so it is hard to say whether this battle can be as expected!
The sound of rapid footsteps came, and a general rushed to Cao Cao, clasped his fists and said, "Report to the King of Wei, all the generals are ready, just wait for the King of Wei to give the order!"
Cao Cao was silent for a moment and asked, "Did you see Liu Xian?"
The general clasped his fists and said, "See!"
Cao Cao immediately turned around and asked with concern: "Are you sure?"
The general said firmly: "Absolutely! The last general recognizes Liu Xian, and will never admit his mistake! He is riding a horse now, marching ahead of the team under the support of Dian Wei and others, and has entered the city!"
Cao Cao showed excitement and murmured: "God helps me!"
Xu You immediately clasped his fists and said, "Since Liu Xian entered the city with the army, it means he did not realize that this was the trap of King Wei! King Wei, time is too late, and he can start it!"
Cao Cao looked at the Xicheng Gate where the people were surging in the distance and shouted: "Start!"
At the highest point in the city, a row of eye-catching red lanterns suddenly rose in the Star Gazing Tower of the King of Wei’s Mansion.
At the same time, the sound of earth-shaking war drums and shouts suddenly sounded in the city.
The two Cao troops first appeared on both sides of the Xicheng Gate and quickly assaulted the Xicheng Gate along the city wall and the road under the city wall.
The defenders of the Xicheng Gate had no idea at all. They were caught off guard and could not resist it. They were taken back by Cao's army in one fell swoop. Then the iron gate was put down with a bang, and Liu Xianjun, who had already entered the city, was immediately cut off from his retreat.
At the same time, there were sounds of killing in the city, and thousands of troops suddenly emerged from the originally quiet city, and the rainy arrows flew straight towards Liu Xianjun!
"Form formation defense! Form formation defense!..." The shouts of generals of Liu Xianjun were heard one after another. Liu Xianjun departments hurriedly contracted the formation and quickly organized defensive fronts based on the streets and alleys.
The earth trembled at this moment. The officers and soldiers of Liu Xian who were forming a formation suddenly saw the heavy armored cavalry under Cao Cao's command. The tiger and leopard cavalry appeared in front of him, and the iron hooves rushed over and swept over!
The officers and soldiers of Liu Xianjun were shocked and shouted! At the same time, the tiger and leopard cavalry suddenly collided on Liu Xianjun's unformed defensive front!
The terrifying impact sounded like a storm of the shore! Liu Xianjun failed to resist the opponent's impact, and the front was torn apart, and the tiger and leopard cavalry broke into the formation!
The tiger and leopard cavalry was in front of them, and they were still in a state of no one for a moment. The iron hoof and blade swept down the Liu Xian army officers and soldiers who were blocking them!
At this moment, many of Liu Xian's heavily armored infantry used shields to protect their bodies and rushed into the middle of the tiger and leopard cavalry and started a hand-to-hand battle with the tiger and leopard cavalry!
The tiger and leopard cavalry, however, continued to rush forward without hesitation! The horse spear and long sword in his hand rushed straight towards the opponent's infantry!
The loud bang sounded like a loud bang, and the long swords of the tiger and leopard riding were almost all hitting the opponent's shield!
At the same time, these heavy infantry swung their long swords and slashed the horse's hooves. The tiger and leopard cavalry in the charge fell to the ground. The scene was filled with tragic scenes of people rushing over and overturning!
However, the tiger and leopard cavalry is the ace army in Cao's army. Faced with the opponent's counterattack, they had a violent impulse! They roared and urged the war horses, waved their horse spears and long swords to rush forward!
The powerful impact force immediately knocked many heavy infantry out!
The heavy infantry fought to the death and fought bloody battles with the tiger and leopard cavalry! The charge momentum of the tiger and leopard cavalry was actually suppressed by them!
Many heavy infantry holding super-long spears rushed forward and formed a dense gun forest to counterattack the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry!
The tiger and leopard cavalry, who had lost their charge power, had nowhere to hide in the narrow streets, and was suddenly stabbed by the opponent's dense spear!
The knights are fine, because they are wearing heavy armor, and their spears are hard to be injured. However, their war horses are not wrapped in heavy armor like Liu Xianjun's iron cavalry's war horse. Under the dense spears, people are rushing up and overturning their flesh and blood, and horses are neighing.
The shouts sounded!
Before the knight who fell to the ground had time to get up, he was hooked by countless lock hooks thrown out by Liu Xian's army and pulled into the military formation and was killed by random axes!
Seeing that he had resisted the attack of his opponent's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Liu Xian secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chapter completed!
