————————————————————————————
In Wuwei County in March, the grass is tender and tender, and the wind is gentle.
This was originally one of the two most beautiful seasons of the year. But under Wuwei City, there seemed to be a haze in the sky. The warm sun was blocked by the haze, and there was a thick layer of chilling air.
.
Xu Shu, standing on the tower.
At the moment when thousands of arrows flew together, the wind picked up the moon-white crane cloak and fluttered.
The arm holding Yushan tightly and pointing firmly ahead was motionless in the air. That scene was really stunning and cool!
At the same time, thousands of arrows fell like a waterfall.
The powerful penetrating power of the triangular arrow is unstoppable.
Not all Qiang Hu can wear iron armor, and most of them wear cloth to protect themselves. Such a simple defense cannot block the whizzing arrows. The sharp three-edged arrows tore the skin and penetrated into the body.
One, two, three... When a person is filled with arrows in an instant, his appearance is truly terrifying.
The cavalrymen and horses fell down without even making a sound.
Hundreds of Qiang and Hu cavalry fell down at the same time, both men and horses. The scene was particularly spectacular.
The rain of arrows keeps falling.
More Qiang and Hu cavalry fell in a pool of blood.
Unlike ordinary wolf tongue arrows, after the triangular arrow penetrated the body, the blood flowed out quickly along the blood groove, making it impossible to save. Many Qiang and Hu cavalry did not die immediately after falling to the ground. They were either lying on their backs.
They were facing the sky, being pressed down by war horses, or crawling on the ground. Their bodies were twitching as the blood flowed...
The grass outside Wuwei City was instantly dyed red with blood.
Yue Ji did not expect that the arrow array of the Hexi Army would be so sharp and ferocious. The penetrating power of the triangular arrows is far beyond the comparison of the wolf tongue arrows. The same force can knock down the wolf tongue arrows, but for the triangular arrows, it is not as powerful as the wolf tongue arrows.
He spoke, but he could only deviate from the direction. The slender arrow penetrated the body. The red-stemmed white feathers looked particularly dazzling in the sun.
The Qiang and Hu cavalry troops are getting closer and closer.
Seeing that they were about to break through the range covered by the arrow rain, they suddenly heard the rapid banging of bang bang bang bang on the top of Wuwei City.
Immediately afterwards, a dense pile of items flew out from the top of the city.
It's a clay pot...
The clay pot fell to the ground and shattered, and all kinds of strange-shaped iron caltrops rolled out from the jar, which were scattered all over the ground in an instant. The war horse galloped, stepped on the iron caltrops, and suddenly let out a shrill scream and fell to the ground with a thud.
.
The cavalry in front fell to the ground, but the cavalry behind did not know what happened, and the offensive could not help but be interrupted.
At this moment, the command flag on the city head waved again.
The general of the Hexi Army roared: "Cao Nu, shoot straight!"
The archers who were originally throwing arrows suddenly changed their way of shooting, from throwing arrows to flat shots. A shower of arrows rained down on the ground instead of flat, whistling and imagining the Qiang and Hu cavalry. The first row of arrows shot out arrows, and they immediately squatted down;
The archers in the second row shot flatly; then the archers in the third row, these three rows of archers, did not move at all from the beginning to the end, they just kept rising and falling in place to release arrows.
In the blink of an eye, countless Qiang and Hu cavalry troops were killed by Duke Cao.
Such a dense rain of arrows caused Xu Shu to shiver even when he was observing from the top of the city...
"Isn't that a bit cruel?"
He turned around and asked the person behind him.
"Well, it's quite cruel."
He has ten white camel retinues who are responsible for protecting Xu Shu.
Speaking of which, his followers were all battle-hardened masters. However, they had never seen such a fierce rain of arrows.
I can't rush forward at all...
This is also the "long-range coverage" theory proposed by Cao Peng when training the Hexi Army.
More or less, it is similar to the fire coverage of later generations. However, there are no thermal weapons in these years, so the best way is to strengthen the power of bows and arrows. Cao Gongya is specially designed for Cao Peng's "long-range coverage" theory.
Long-range coverage requires archers to take turns shooting and set all the arrows in their hands in the shortest possible time.
Moreover, a distance must be maintained between the opponent and the opponent, so when the opponent shortens the distance, the archer needs to learn to move and shoot. Of course, this requires very strict training, and it cannot be completed in a short time.
First, shoot the arrow statically, and use other means to assist at the same time.
For example, firing iron caltrops has slowed down the impact of the cavalry... For this reason, Cao Peng gave Hao Zhao 10,000 people to train archers. From the Pingjing period in Hexi to the present, it took a full four months to train five archers.
Thousands of people, and Hao Zhao was still not completely satisfied. This time in the expedition to Wuwei County, Cao Peng brought out all 5,000 archers.
Wuwei County alone has a population of 3,000.
The biggest problem with this long-range coverage arrow array theory is the speed at which arrows are consumed.
In the blink of an eye, Xu Shu made a rough calculation and probably consumed at least 20,000 Cao Gong's arrows...
And in the entire Wuwei City, there are only 50,000.
But the effect is still very obvious, and the lethality is also particularly amazing.
Xu Shu gently shook the feather fan and suddenly sighed, "Since it is already cruel, let's be more cruel."
Pass my order, after ten rounds of firing, the cavalry will attack!"
Ten rounds of continuous shooting means that all the remaining 30,000 Cao Gong's arrows must be fired. Don't underestimate these ten rounds of continuous shooting. For archers, these ten rounds are enough to exhaust all their strength.
After 50,000 arrows are fired, how many people can still survive? This question is not something Xu Shu needs to consider! He only knows that after these 50,000 arrows are shot, the Qiang and Hu cavalry basically have only one ending. Then
Just rout, rout...
"Caltrops, prepare!"
At the top of Wuwei City, the flags waved.
"put!"
Another black shadow rose into the sky from Wuwei City, flying down like locusts.
It was still a clay pot, but it was wrapped with a layer of burning hay. The Qiang Hu general raised his hand and smashed the clay pot. Unexpectedly, this time, the clay pot was not only filled with caltrops, but also half a jar of tung oil. Pottery
As soon as the can was broken, the tung oil burned immediately and instantly stuck to the bodies of the Qiang and Hu cavalry. Iron caltrops were scattered on the ground, and flames were ignited everywhere. The war horses were frightened and neighed, and some of them immediately killed the cavalry on them.
He was thrown off his horse.
Sea of fire, rain of arrows...
Outside Wuwei County, almost close to the Shura Field area!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of war drums came from the city wall of Wuwei County!
Two hundred large cowhide drums were placed on the city. Even though it was March, the wind was still a bit cold. But four hundred sturdy men, shirtless and with large cowhide belts tied around their waists, held drumsticks and beat the war drums in circles. The sound of the drums
, slow at first, echoing around the world, drowning out even the shouts of killing outside the city, making people feel numb... At least, Yue Ji has a feeling of hairiness. The entire Qiang and Hu cavalry formation,
It was completely in chaos, and at least three to four thousand people fell on the battlefield, looking miserable. Wuwei County had been seen clearly, but it was impossible to get close or touch it!
That feeling is really terrible!
If the Qiang and Hu cavalry were able to charge with bravery at the beginning, then later on, the feeling that they were so close yet so far away became more and more intense. More and more people died, and the Qiang
People have collapsed!
When the war drums sounded, countless Qiang people reined in their horses in unison, confused and fearful.
The fiasco of Fengmingtan appeared in everyone's minds at the same time.
Their opponents are not the Qiang people of the Yadan tribe!
But the group of Han soldiers who came out from Hexi and killed without blinking an eye...
Suddenly, the sound of war drums became more urgent, as if giving an order to charge. Yueji's scalp went numb, he turned his horse's head and shouted: "You've been tricked, run!"
A gust of wind came and knocked down the large banner of Yue Ji's Chinese army.
Seeing the big banner disappear, the Qiang people suddenly became confused...Run away!
But, is it too late?
"Shuhuqi, charge with me!"
A young general galloped from the high slope outside Wuwei City and rushed to the front. Behind him, eight hundred black-armored cavalry followed closely behind. This cavalry was like a black torrent, sweeping across
He came and rushed into the rebel army in an instant.
On the other side, there was also a black-faced young man, waving his halberd and rushing out on horseback.
Behind him, a large scroll was flying, with the four characters "Little Evil Comes to Niu" written on it. The black-faced boy was none other than Niu Gang.
Cao Zhang and Niu Gang, each with eight hundred cavalry, were ordered to wait for orders on the high hill.
Xu Huqi is Cao Zhang's bodyguard.
Cao Zhang was praised by Cao Cao as Huang Beard Tiger, but in Hexi, people praised the name of Huang Bearded Tiger. He had long been envious of his father's tiger and leopard cavalry. And after Cao Peng formed the White Camel Army, Cao Zhang was even more jealous.
So he simply followed Huang Xuer's orders and named his guard Xuhuqi. As for Niu Gang's name of "Little Evil", it was also given by Cao Zhang.
Anyway, Niu Gang's uncle is Dian Wei, so it's not an exaggeration to call him Xiao Evil.
As for whether Dianman and the others agree, Cao Zhang won't care... Anyway, that's what I called you, what can you do?
Two young men, like two fierce tigers, led two groups of cavalry and charged forward.
A Qiang horseman stepped forward to stop them, but they saw Cao Zhang, Niugang and the others dancing with spears and halberds. They were not afraid. Cao Zhang's spear was fast and his horse was extremely powerful. According to historical records, he had the power to split a tiger and a leopard alive. Today
Although Cao Peng practiced martial arts and later learned bear fighting from Gan Ning, his strength was so great that even adults such as Li Dian could not compare to him despite his young age.
Niu Gang even has magical powers.
He was not as smart as Cao Zhang in martial arts, so Cao Peng didn't teach him any clever moves. They were all about fighting hard and winning with strength. Qiang cavalry was good at riding and shooting, but Cao Zhang's niu-gang mount could not
They are all equipped with high saddles and double stirrups. With this magical weapon, other Qiang cavalry cannot stop them. And Yue Ji, the most powerful general of Xiqiang, was frightened out of his courage at this time, so he could not even bother to compete with Cao Zhang Niugang.
If you fight bravely, it's too late to run away!
"Anyone who openly violates my divine power will be punished no matter how far away!"
"Even if you are far away, you will be killed!"
Cao Zhang roared on his horse, shook his spear, and killed the Qiang cavalry until rivers of blood flowed from them.
This battle was called the Battle of Duye in later generations. It not only proved the feasibility of Cao Peng's "long-range coverage" theory with its overwhelming force, but also represented the increasing maturity of Cao Peng's military thinking (Historian
So said). At the same time, the Battle of Duye also represented the second generation of the Cao family's descendants, officially entering the stage of history.
Originally, Cao Peng and Cao Zhen both belonged to the second generation of Cao.
However, due to the age of these two people and the high reputation of Cao Peng, many people in later generations never regarded him as the second generation of Cao, and even placed him in the position of the first generation of Cao. After all, Cao Peng was Cao Zhanghe
It seems that it is not an exaggeration to say that Cao Chong's teacher is a 'Cao generation'. Just as Cao Zhang was charging into the capital, Cao Pi had just packed his bags, took Sima Yi with him, and left Wulu City in high spirits, heading towards the Central Plains.
Heading towards Qiu County...
At the end of March in the ninth year of Jian'an, the Battle of Yecheng officially kicked off!
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++++
It's early summer.
In Guzang City, the cool breeze blows.
After a short period of consolidation in Xiutu County, Cao Peng led four thousand troops and arrived outside Guzang City!
Four thousand people!
He only brought four thousand people with him...
His idea is self-evident: the battle of Guzang does not require any effort on his part, as four thousand men are enough to capture it.
Arrogant, extremely arrogant!
I don't take Ma Tie seriously at all.
In fact, whether it is in terms of record or reputation, Ma Tie is indeed not qualified to challenge Cao Peng. But you can't make it so obvious! Ma Tie is also a promising young man with ideals and ambitions. You
Cao Peng was not much older than Ma Tie. Such blatant discrimination was simply unbearable for my uncle, but I couldn't bear it for my aunt.
Ma Tie was furious and led his troops into battle regardless of Ma Cheng's obstruction.
Since he went out of the city to invite the battle, as the governor of Hexi and the general of Beizhonglang, Cao Peng, who did not "take Ma Tie seriously" at all, would naturally not refuse to fight. Cao Peng ordered Jia Xing and Wang Shuang to stay in the army, and then
He took three hundred white camel soldiers and rushed out of the camp gate.
At the foot of Guzang City, Cao Peng's horse was circling.
The liger, Rhubarb, seemed to be infected as well, roaring wildly and letting out bursts of roars just like dragons and lions roaring.
Cao Peng didn't even wear any clothes.
Wearing a white battle robe, with a halberd painted on his palm, he showed off his power.
Horses are crazy, people are even crazier!
That arrogant arrogance was enough to make Ma Tie break his steel teeth and get angry at Bullfighting.
This is a fighting general!
Both sides unanimously chose a fighting general.
Ma Tie stood under the flag gate and said sternly: "Who will kill Cao Cao, a thief, and a dog with me?"
"I will go where I will in the end!"
Before Ma Tie's voice fell, he saw a general, riding his horse, twisting his gun, and rushing out of the flag gate. Ma Tie was overjoyed... This man's name was Lan Shan, nicknamed General Wuwei. He was brave in killing skills and had considerable merit. Lan Shan's horse,
He rushed to the front of the two armies, pointed his big gun at Cao Peng, and shouted sternly: "Your general Lan is here. If the little thief doesn't get off his horse, he will be tied up, otherwise he will be killed."
Who is Blue Mountain?
Cao Peng looked confused.
Among the generals in Xiliang, he only knows Ma Chao, Pang De, and Ma Dai... Well, Ma Tie seems to be somewhat famous as well. In the novel, this guy protected Ma Teng to break out, which really cost Cao Cao a lot of trouble. But who is Lanshan?
Woolen cloth?
Now that you're out, I won't be polite!
Cao Peng was too lazy to talk to Lan Shan and knocked the tiger toad with his feet. The liger hissed and its long body sprang out like an arrow from a string.
"An unknown person dares to be arrogant."
Cao Peng held the halberd in one hand and roared loudly. The painted pole halberd danced in the air with a arc of cold light, and buzzed... towards the Blue Mountain.
