Chapter 1869 Mantis catching cicadas
Cao Ren and Cheng Pu were waiting anxiously. Time was always particularly slow in waiting. More than half a day was like a year in the feeling of the two of them.
The sun finally set and the moon appeared above the sky. The surrounding forests gradually became quiet, and noise came from the camp in the distance.
Looking into the camp, I saw smoke rising from the camp, and many Liu Xian soldiers gathered in one place, probably to receive supper.
Cheng Pu, who could not help but say to Cao Ren, "At this time, the enemy must be unprepared for dining. Why not take this opportunity to launch an attack! If you wait any longer, you will be afraid that there will be more dreams!"
Cao Ren nodded and said to Cheng Pu: "I will lead my troops to attack the Beizhai Gate directly, while the general led the Wu army to detour near the official road on the west side of his camp.
If I expected it would be true, once the enemy was defeated, they would definitely go west to Zhao Yun’s village!"
Cheng Pu felt that this arrangement was very appropriate and nodded.
Seeing that Cheng Pu had no objection, Cao Ren immediately ordered his troops to assemble, and Cheng Pu also issued an order to assemble.
Not long after, Cao Ren and Cheng Pu each led 20,000 troops out of the hidden mountains and forests.
One way was a 20,000 Cao army led by Cao Ren, who drove directly to the north gate of his opponent Dazhai, while the other way was a 20,000 Wu army led by Cheng Pu, who detoured the official road to the west.
Under the cover of night, Cao Ren's army rushed towards Liu Xian's village, and rushed to the gate of the village with lightning speed!
The army immediately launched a fierce attack, and the sound of killing suddenly broke the silence of the night.
Liu Xianjun was obviously unprepared. The village gate was broken through by Cao's army almost instantly, and 20,000 Cao's troops rushed in!
Cao Ren looked up at the front and saw the enemy troops who were dining scattering, like a group of sheep that had been scattered!
Cao Ren was very excited and felt that this place was really his blessed land. He actually defeated the enemy twice here!
Then he raised his sword and shouted loudly: "The whole army attacks, capture Zhao Yanran alive! Kill!"
Kill!! The officers and soldiers of the Cao army shouted excitedly and rushed towards the depths of the camp. Cao Ren personally led an elite soldier forward and rushed straight into Zhao Yanran's tent with bright lights.
"Zhao Yanran, Cao Ren is here!" Cao Ren shouted loudly as soon as he rushed into the tent.
However, before Cao Ren finished speaking, he was stunned on the spot! Not only him, but also the officers and soldiers around him showed surprise and surprise.
It turned out that many people who appeared in front of everyone were scarecrows! In such a big tent, there was no real person, but they were all scarecrows supported by a bracket.
Cao Ren was the first to come back to his senses, his face changed in a terrifying manner, and he shouted: "Not good! I've been trapped! Retreat quickly!"
As if in response to his words, the earth-shaking sound of war drums and shouts suddenly sounded around him!
Cao Ren and others rushed out of the tent and suddenly saw countless torches appearing around them, illuminating the night into daylight, and Liu Xianjun, who was surrounded by figures, had already surrounded them!
Cao Ren felt unbelievable. He really didn't understand how the other party expected that he would attack him? Could it be that Zhao Yanran could even pinch him? As soon as he thought of this, he felt more and more that Zhao Yanran was not an mortal, but a fairy!
He came to his senses and looked at the enemy surrounding him, he couldn't help but frowned and shouted loudly: "Follow me to break through!"
At this moment, a huge roar of wind sounded in the air, and then the arrows fell like heavy rain! The Cao army officers and soldiers who were caught off guard were immediately beaten to the ground, and the arrows flying all over the sky kept knocking the Cao army officers and soldiers to the ground!
Cao Ren stepped onto the war horse, waved his sword and shouted loudly: "Follow me to break through!" Then he rode his horse straight towards the camp gate. Seeing this, a group of Cao soldiers hurriedly followed, and 20,000 people gathered into a trend and rushed towards the door!
At this time, the crossbowmen of Liu Xianjun on both sides were still firing arrows. Although the flying arrows kept knocking Cao's officers and soldiers to the ground, they could not stop them from breaking through. Seeing that Cao's army had already rushed to the camp gate!
Suddenly, the camp gate was surging and the earth began to tremble. The Cao army officers and soldiers suddenly saw more than a thousand iron cavalry breaking into the formation appear in front of them. Everyone couldn't help but be shocked!
Cao Ren secretly shouted that he was not good, subconsciously pinned the war horse, turned his head and shouted at the officers and soldiers, "Range the array! Quickly!"
After all, the Cao army was not a mob. Although they were panicked, they still acted immediately after hearing Cao Ren's order. Twenty thousand troops quickly gathered, and the shield hands rushed to the front and connected and overlapped the shields to form a shield curtain!
In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand iron cavalry broke into the front of Cao's army. The officers and soldiers of Cao's army only felt that countless peaks were rushing in front of them, and the whole earth was trembling violently!
I couldn't help but hold my breath and tighten my nerves, and put all my strength on the shield in my hand!
Cao Ren shouted loudly: "Hold on!"
Almost at the same time, the torrent of the cavalry suddenly collided on the Cao army's defense line! It was like a terrifying wave breaking the shore. In the terrible impact, the defense line formed by the Cao army hurriedly collapsed like a sand embankment in front of the flood!
The Cao army officers and soldiers who were blocking the front line watched the continuous fall under the surging iron hooves, screams and collisions sounded!
The iron cavalry broke through the formation and entered the formation and moved forward! The surging iron hooves trampled all the enemy officers and soldiers who were blocking their faces, and the heavy horse spears danced with blood. The Cao army officers and soldiers who tried to stop the surging iron hooves were knocked down in a pool of dust and blood!
However, although Cao's army was in chaos, they still did not give up. The officers and soldiers yelled wildly and resisted desperately!
I have to say that Cao Jun is definitely a respectable opponent!
Just as the iron cavalry broke through the Cao army's front, the nine thousand Liu Xian's infantry on both sides also launched a full-scale attack! Amid the rumbling drums, the nine thousand infantry seemed to be out of the cage, shouting and rushing towards the two wings of the Cao army!
At the same time, outside the west gate of Dazhai, Cheng Puzheng led 20,000 Wu troops to wait for Liu Xianjun to escape from the camp and wipe them out in one fell swoop!
Cheng Pu sat on the horse's back and looked at the direction where the sound of killing sound came. Because there was a camp blocking it from such a distance, Cheng Pu couldn't see clearly what was going on there.
However, when he heard such fierce fighting, he felt a little worried. He felt that Liu Xianjun must be fighting a trapped beast. Cao Ren's battle was probably not easy!
The general on the side couldn't help but say, "General, Cao Ren and the others don't seem to be fighting easily!"
