Chapter 57 Nansun Liu split the three states Sima Yi plans to slaughter the royal family 7

When Cao Zhang saw that Zhang Baiqi stopped the road and shouted, he ignored it. Instead, he retreated to the front and ordered the gunmen to line up in front to prevent the cavalry from rushing to the front. Cao Zhang was not afraid of fighting with Zhang Baiqi in this way, but was ordered by Li Ru not to fight with the generals under Nan Ye's command. Li Ru has a military advantage, and the general is a weakness. One Lv Bu can knock down all the generals of Cao's army. Of course, Li Ru will not be stupid enough to fight alone with Nan Ye's generals.

Zhang Baiqi was not afraid of the dense gun array of Cao soldiers. He raised his gun and led the cavalry forward. Cao Zhang in the array was dumbfounded. Zhang Bai's cavalry was only 500, which was not enough for Cao's army to plug his teeth. Cao Zhang didn't understand why Zhang Baiqi dared to be so bold. Cao Zhang did not give an order, just like looking at what secret weapons Zhang Baiqi has to deal with his gun array.

The behavior of the Jiaozhou cavalry was completely beyond Cao Zhang's expectation. They did not rush straight into the gun array, but stopped in the front section, and then hung up their machetes, took out bows and arrows, and shot at a 45-degree angle. The hit rate of the back shot was not high, but the range was far. In addition, the Jiaozhou cavalry was in the limelight, and hundreds of arrows went straight into Cao's gun array through the wind.

"The gunmen retreat! Sword and shield soldiers forward! The crossbowman fights back!" Although Cao Zhang reacted at the first time and gave the order, the Cao army's gunmen had no time to avoid the first round of arrow rain.

Although the hit rate of the back shot is limited, Cao Jun's formation is too dense, and they are crowded on the narrow road, and they can't avoid it. One-third of 500 arrows hit the target, dozens of Cao soldiers died on the spot, and more than 100 people were injured.

Compared with the forward team of 30,000 people, more than 100 casualties are not much, but the blow to Cao's army is very huge. 30,000 to 500, no matter who looks at it, 30,000 should have the advantage, but the party of 500 people took the lead in making no casualties. How did Cao Jun accept this?

Before Cao Zhang's transformation was completed, the second round of arrow rain of the Jiaozhou cavalry had been shot, and hundreds of Cao troops were hit by arrows. After the third round of arrow rain, Cao's sword and shield soldiers replaced the gunmen, and the bow and crossbowmen also began to fight back. Unfortunately, the offensive distance of the Jiaozhou cavalry was perfectly grasped, and the Cao army's archers who shot arrows against the wind could not hit the Jiaozhou cavalry at all.

Cao Zhang, who was arrogant, was almost vomited blood by Zhang Bai. After the knife and shield soldiers came forward, the Jiaozhou cavalry also stopped archery, but did not leave. In this way, he was consumed with Cao Jun. It was clear that he had to delay the time. Cao Zhang did not dare to let the knife and shield soldiers charge forward to fight with the cavalry. For a moment, he didn't know what to do, so he had to ask Li Ru for instructions.

After listening to Cao Zhang's words, Li Ru said, "The sword and shield soldiers are ordered to line forward, and the bow and crossbow hands are behind. If the enemy rushes into the battle, they will shoot them with bows."

Cao Zhang said, "The line must be slow, and it will not be Nan Ye's procrastination. Why don't you let me lead the pawn to kill him?"

Li Ru's main task in Xuchang is to defend the city. There are not many cavalry under his command, but there are thousands of people. Of course, it is not a problem to deal with 500 cavalry. However, Li Ru was afraid of Nan Ye's plan to lure the enemy, so he said to Cao Zhang, "There are not many cavalry in the army. If you rush forward and be trapped by Nan Ye, it's not beautiful. Just walk slowly. Nanye's grain and grass are limited. When his grain is exhausted, he will defeat it with a horse and pawn, and he will definitely win the battle.

Cao Zhang ordered the soldiers to walk slowly, and the 500 cavalry of Zhang Bai had been wandering in front of him. As long as Cao Jun was a little relaxed, it was a round of arrow rain, which made Cao Jun afraid and could only move forward slowly.

After half a day of marching, Zhang Baiqi led the state cavalry and suddenly retreated, which relieved Cao Zhang and ordered the soldiers to bury the pot to make rice. The sword and shield soldiers in front of the battle were nervous for half a day and finally could rest. They all sat on the ground tired and didn't want to get up. Cao Zhang did not force it, so he ordered the gunmen and crossbowmen to be responsible for cooking. Anyway, their journey was similar to walking and did not consume much physical strength.

Just as Cao's army was relaxed, 500 cavalry rushed in front of the road, and without saying a word, there was a rain of arrows. Cao Jun, who had no time to get up and raise his shield, was killed and injured more than 100 people again. After the arrow rain, a female general among the Jiaozhou cavalry made her debut: "Cao Zhang, do you dare to fight with me, Ma Yunqi?"

Cao Zhang was so angry that he didn't expect the soldiers under Nan Ye to be so unstoppable. However, he still strictly guarded the military order and did not go forward to fight, but ordered knives and shields to defend. However, this time Cao Zhang also learned well. He saw that Nan Ye's intention was to order his generals to take turns to lead troops to kill his soldiers' spirit, so he also learned from Nan Ye and divided the swords and shield soldiers into several teams to defend in front of the battle, and the other soldiers took turns to rest.

Ma Yunqi led Cao's army in front of the battle for another half day, during which there were many fork roads on both sides of the road. However, with Ma Yunqi leading the way, Cao Zhang didn't bother to pay attention to the fork in the road. He just ordered the horse to take a brief look. If he didn't find the ambush, he continued to move forward.

The sky gradually darkened, and Huabei replaced Ma Yunqi again. Cao Zhang has become accustomed to it, and Cao Jun is also on guard, but this time he has not lost any people.

Seeing that it was late, Li Ru ordered a camp. Nan Ye's wife was leading the way. Li Ru believed that Nan Ye could not run away. However, Li Ru still ordered Cao Zhang to be careful to prevent Nan Ye from robbing the camp.

Cao Jun began to camp. Hua Bei smiled and ordered a group of soldiers to get off their horses to rest and eat dry food, just waiting for a big disturbance at night.

Cao's army, who were on guard everywhere in the march, had already exhausted. Except for some soldiers on duty at night, the rest of the soldiers returned to the camp after dinner and snored as soon as they touched their heads on their pillows. Cao Zhang was also tired on this day. After leaving his relatives to keep the account, he fell asleep.

Hua Bei saw that the lights in Cao's camp were gradually going out, and the soldiers said, "Take out the gong pot and let Cao Jun know the power of the national master's divine song tonight!"

The Jiaozhou cavalry laughed when they heard the words and took down the copper gong pot from the horse's back one by one. The gong pot here does not refer to the hunchback, but is a kind of military sounder, which cooks rice during the day and reports at night. It is used for both gongs and pots. The sound of this kind of gong pot is not smaller than that of war drums. The key is that it is easy to carry and is very suitable for disturbing people.

The soldiers took out the gong pot and knocked on it one after another, and sang as they knocked, "Ah~oh! Ah~oh! Ah hissing, ah hissing, ah hissing, ah hissing..."

Cao Zhang and most of Cao Jun were awakened by nightmares. It's not that they haven't heard the war songs of the Jiaozhou Army, but they have never heard such a devastating song. If you use one word to describe the movement outside the camp, it can only be ghost crying.

Not to mention that Cao Zhang and Cao Jun don't know what they are singing outside the camp, even Hua Bei and Jiaozhou cavalry don't know what they are singing. They just learned a general tune from Nan Ye, and then played freely. Because even Nan Ye can't perfectly interpret the divine song that he can't learn ten thousand times.

Hua Bei once asked Nan Ye what this song meant. Nan Ye thought for a moment: "This song vividly describes the scene of a small rural couple who release their desires in nature and it is difficult to break through the traditional shackles in their hearts."
