Chapter two hundred and seventy-two the enemy

"Lord, look over there!" Although Ma Chao, Pang De, and Zhang Xiu tried their best to hold back Cao Cao, the five forts blocking Cao Cao were still breached. The three of them had no choice but to lead their cavalry to continue to mediate with Cao Cao.

Thinking that Chen Mo would get more time to adjust his troops, Cheng Yu suddenly looked into the distance on Cao Cao's side. He and Cao Cao were now standing on a low hill to easily command the army, have an overview of the overall situation, and see further.

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao turned his head and looked in the direction pointed by Cheng Yu. He saw dozens of troops and horses gathering in front. Each of these dozens of troops was not too many in number. Looking at the scale, there were only a thousand soldiers.

, there are only a few, but only a hundred or ten people. They were not too eye-catching at first, but now these people quickly gathered together and formed a formation. The formation of tens of thousands of soldiers and horses was quickly formed.

The most important thing is that they are still coming in a steady stream.

"This Guanzhong Army is indeed well-trained." Cao Cao couldn't help but praise when he saw this scene. They completed the assembly so quickly. This scene alone was enough to show the effectiveness of the Guanzhong Army's daily training.

Cheng Yu nodded. No matter what people in the world thought of Chen Mo, it was almost universally acknowledged that the Guanzhong Army was elite.

"Pass my military order, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong will attack. Before he can fully assemble, they will defeat this army!" Cao Cao was not prepared to wait for Chen Mo to assemble all the troops before fighting. This battlefield is not about etiquette.

The place.

As Cao Cao's order was issued, the military flags were waved and the drums and trumpets sounded. Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Hong quickly led their troops to fight out after receiving the military order. The three troops formed a formation and surged towards the newly assembled troops.

And go.

Xu Huang sat on his horse and watched this scene indifferently. He saw three troops attacking here with no intention of retreating. His troops themselves attracted Cao's army to attack.

He waved the command flag and shouted: "Set up the formation!"

Tens of thousands of troops quickly formed a circular formation, with shields forming a shield formation. Spearmen were lined up in the weather, spears protruding from the shields, and archers were lined up in the center of the formation, drawing arrows and ready to fire.

Xu Huang was sitting on his horse, looking at the direction in which the enemy troops were coming, and suddenly pointed his flag at Cao Ren's troops: "Sixty steps to the southeast, release!"

Rows of arrow clusters soared into the sky, and the hum that tore the air echoed between heaven and earth. After passing the highest point, the arrow clusters fell towards Cao Ren's men.

"Put up your shield!" Cao Ren shouted sharply and raised the shield in his hand.

"Dong dong dong dong~"

A dense rain of arrows fell and bounced off the shield, and many fell along the gaps in the shield, causing casualties.

"Fire arrows!" On the other side, Xia Houyuan and Cao Hong saw this and ordered to fire arrows. After avoiding the arrow rain, Cao Ren saw that the other two sides began to suppress the arrow rain and quickly commanded his troops to rush upward.

A continuous rain of arrows fell towards Xu Huang, and casualties also began to appear.

Cao Ren's troops rushed forward, and the two armies met. The shield bearers rushed forward with their shields on their shoulders, and many people were injured by the spears thrust out.

Xu Huang watched this scene calmly, holding the shield with one hand, pointing in the direction of Cao Ren with the other hand and shouting: "Twenty steps to the southeast, release!"

This is already a very close distance. In the case of throwing, it is difficult to control the strength. Most of the arrows from the Guanzhong Army landed in Cao Ren's rear formation.

The fighting gradually became fierce. Seeing that the opponent's shield array was strong, Cao Ren ordered his men to use a battering ram to hit the shield array, hoping to create a gap.

"Flying axes!" a general shouted in the crowd, and a dozen shieldmen took off their short axes from their waists and threw them outside the formation.

This is the special equipment of Xu Huang's shieldmen. In addition to shields, they are equipped with three short axes. They can be held in their hands to fight the enemy in battle, or they can be thrown directly as a long-range attack method.

.

"Form-breaking hammer!" Cao Ren saw that the battering ram was broken by the flying axe, and immediately changed the formation, but saw Cao Jun separate the formation, and two horses rushed towards the shield formation under the control of the knight. The knight on the horse was holding the iron rope, and the middle one was pulling

A huge mace.

When he was about to reach the military formation, the knight reined in his horse and stopped, but the huge mace slammed into the shield formation under the influence of inertia.

"Bang~"

With a loud noise, several shieldmen were knocked away by the mace, and the spearmen behind them fell to pieces.

"Fire the arrow!"

Before the two knights could push away, a group of crossbowmen rushed out from behind the broken shield formation, and fired a barrage of crossbow arrows at the outside of the formation. The two knights who had not yet left were immediately shot into hedgehogs.

"Kill!" Cao Ren ignored this. Seeing that the shield formation was broken, the shieldmen in the front row immediately rushed forward with their shields in hand, trying to break Xu Huang's circular formation in one go.

The crossbowmen on Xu Huang's side immediately retreated after firing a round of arrow clusters. Another row of crossbowmen rushed up from behind and fired arrows at each other. Cao Jun's soldiers kept falling, and Cao Jun's soldiers kept rushing up to seal the gap.

Arrows from both sides continued to shoot towards each other's formation. At the same time, Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong also led troops to attack from the flanks, making Xu Huang unable to fight Cao Ren with all his strength.

The three major phalanxes quickly formed an encirclement against Xu Huang.

"Change the formation!" Seeing that the front line could no longer be defended, Xu Huang changed the formation in time. The shield soldiers retreated, with the spearmen in front. The spears gathered into a dense jungle of death. At the same time, the retreating shield men also

The defense of the archers at the rear was strengthened, and the arrow clusters became denser. A ruthless look flashed in Xu Huang's eyes. He had to kill one of them first to reverse the situation.

But Cao's army is equally elite, and now they are fighting with three times the enemy. The commander of the war is no less capable than Xu Huang. With one against three, even if Xu Huang is good at defending, he will gradually become weak under the siege of the three parties.

"Who is this?" Cao Cao watched Xu Huang's formation changes on the short hill. Although he was vaguely defeated, under the joint efforts of the three generals Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan, and Cao Hong, they were able to sustain it for so long. Cao Cao had to admire him.

ability.

"Looking at the flag, I think it's Chen Mo's general Xu Huang." Beside Cao Cao, Guo Jia carefully looked at the formations of both sides and the changes in morale, and replied.

"Bo Dao has many good generals under his command!" Cao Cao sighed, feeling envious of the many powerful generals around Chen Mo. He pointed at Xu Huang's army and said, "Destroy them immediately!"

From a farther direction, the sound of continuous drums and trumpets has been heard, and Chen Mo's other troops have obviously begun to assemble. With the speed at which Chen Mo's troops are gathering, I'm afraid there won't be much time for them to tangle with Xu Huang here.

Guo Jia nodded. The combat effectiveness of the Guanzhong Army was not surprising, but the opponent's resilience was astonishing. They used a small number to attack a large number, and they are still fighting to the death. I am afraid that few of Cao's troops can do this.

"Lord, look over there!" Next to Cao Cao, Prime Minister Xu Chuzhi saw a Guanzhong army appearing to the southwest. Instead of saving Xu Huang, they rushed directly towards the main force of Cao's army. Not only that,

In the other two directions, the Guanzhong Army also appeared, attacking Cao's rear formation.

Upon seeing this, Cao Cao frowned and immediately ordered Yue Jin. General Li Dian led his troops to meet them and block both sides. At the same time, the Chinese army also detached a group of troops to meet the enemy.

The three groups of men and horses soon collided and started fighting each other.

Once the number of people exceeds 10,000, there will be no shores, and at this moment, the two sides have already invested 100,000 troops on the battlefield. Looking around, wherever you look, you can see crazy fighting gradually opening up in the wilderness, with canines intersecting with each other,

It's hard to tell each other apart.

The cavalry of Ma Chao, Pang De, and Zhang Xiu have also returned and are running around the battlefield. Whenever they see Cao's army in chaos, they will immediately go up and fight for a while to wipe out their opponents.

The smell of blood filled the battlefield, and the formations of the soldiers on both sides began to become chaotic. The battle line continued to expand, and Cao's army had a numerical advantage and had some upper hand. The Guanzhong army was indeed extremely brave, and the fighting between the two sides became more and more fierce.

Another troop of troops joined the battle group, this time to support Xu Huang and directly attack Xia Houyuan's troops.

The battlefield continues to expand as more troops and horses are added to both sides. Standing on the low hill on Cao Cao's side, it is difficult to overlook the entire battlefield. Although the number of troops may not be as large as that of the battle between Chen Mo and Yuan Shao in Muye,

However, the scope of the fighting between the two sides is not concentrated. Both Cao Cao and Chen Mo intend to expand the battlefield to expose the other side's weaknesses. However, if the battlefield is large, their control over the battle situation will also be weakened. At this time, the test teacher will not

Just the level of the commanders of both sides also needs to be tested on the ability of the generals on both sides to adapt to the enemy on the battlefield.

"I don't know if it's good or bad!" Chen Mo stood on a high platform, holding a pergola with his hands, trying to look at the battlefield further away. At this distance, the edge of the battle situation has become less clear in his sight, and even

It is impossible to see that at this distance, even if there is an explicit order, it may be difficult to transmit it in time. Therefore, when Chen Mo is commanding, he always puts Xu Huang and Gao Shun, who have extremely strong combat capabilities and command capabilities, on the edge.

Department, while Chen Mo was responsible for commanding several other armies to fight against Cao Cong.

But now looking at such a large-scale battlefield, Chen Mo waved his command flag, and then filled it with the assembled troops and horses, forming an encirclement around Cao Cao's army. At this distance, Cao Cao should not be able to react for a while, so he would eat him first.

Let’s talk about it in one bite.

"Notify Xu Huang that we can retreat!" Chen Mo looked at the formation here. In the distance, Xu Huang's side had been supporting for a long time. Chen Mo didn't want Xu Huang's troops to be disabled and could be temporarily replaced.

"Here!" The ordering soldier quickly left to deliver the order.

"Lord!" When Chen Mo was presiding over the dispatch of troops and horses, he saw a general rushing towards him, but it was the scout commander who was responsible for exploring the surroundings of the battlefield. He saluted Lu Bu and said, "Fifteen miles away from the north of the city.

A large number of Yuan troops appeared."

"Yuan Shang?" Chen Mo frowned when he heard this. Yuan Shang called in Zhao and blocked Tai Shici, which was equivalent to completely opening up the Liaodong side. This was also bold. However, at this time, Yuan Shang led his troops to kill. For Chen Mo,

, it is indeed a bit difficult to handle.

"Gongda, you take command!" Chen Mo handed the command flag to Xun You beside him.

"Where are you going, my lord?" Xun You took the command flag and looked at Chen Mo.

"Let's see if we can scare him off. Yuan Shang doesn't have to worry about it, but if we lose Ye City at this time, it will be quite detrimental to our army!" Chen Mo got on his horse, said a simple word, and took Dian Wei to Ye.
