Although the rain of arrows of the Gongsun army caused a burst of casualties to the Cao army on both wings, it did not hurt the vitality of the 280,000 army, especially the sword convoy and spear and shield guards in the middle, which were basically intact. 280,000 versus 180,000, even if the Gongsun army is well-equipped and has more than 30,000 invincible cavalry in the field, it is difficult to say whether it will win or lose, and the most important thing is that the arrangement of troops, morale, command and other factors determine the decision Kill, kill, kill The more than 400,000 armies on both sides roared in unison, surging towards each other like huge waves, and Guandu had launched the largest field battle in the late Han Dynasty before Guandu.
Knock knock To the sound of war drums, the generals of the Cao army quickly regained their composure, and after directing their respective troops to reorganize their ranks a little, they launched a charge against the Gongsun army in accordance with the established offensive line.
On the right side, Xu Huang and Le Jin two generals, each led 50,000 soldiers and horses, to the left flank of the Gongsun army to plunder, the military horses led by these two people are the elite soldiers who have followed Cao Cao to conquer the Central Plains for many years, and the soldiers of the front army are all spearmen, and the spears that are more than a zhang long are specially used to deal with the enemy's swordsmen and cavalry.
The so-called one inch long and one inch strong, most of the Gongsun army are all the same head steel knife, although sharp, but after all, the attack distance is too short, in such a dense battle, the spear in the hand of Cao Jun can completely stab the enemy before the opponent's head steel knife cuts off the barrel, complete the first wave of damage, and even if the gun is broken, the spearmen in front are also equipped with waist knives, which can withstand the impact of the enemy, so that the spear in the hands of the comrades behind him can complete the second wave of long-distance assassination.
This kind of tactics of overcoming the short with the long is the result of many days of research by Jia Xu and Cheng Yu.
Generally speaking, in the case of the same combat power, the Cao army can completely gain the upper hand, even if the Gongsun army is brave and invincible, and the casualties of both sides are equal, the superior strength of the Cao army is enough to overwhelm the opponent.
On the right flank, the soldiers and horses led by Yu Ban and Man Favor are the same.
For this battle, although it was Xu You's temporary intention after he came to vote, but for the field tactics of the Gongsun Army, Cao Cao's strategists and generals had been planning for a long time.
If the spear array on the two wings is more than one zhang long, it is set up for the Gongsun Army's sword-headed soldiers, and the 5,000-sword chariot formation in the middle is completely tailored for the Gongsun Army's 30,000 iron cavalry.
Thundered The behemoths are neatly arranged in several rows, these behemoths are four-wheeled chariots made of solid wood, the wheels and the body are thick solid wood, and the front, left and right sides of the body are nailed with spears and sharp blades, these nails are firmly nailed to the light of the fire, flashing a dazzling cold light, which is daunting; In addition to being bladed on three sides, there stood a tall solid plank at the wheel, covered with iron in front, enough to block any crossbow shots; The wheel has five wheels, which are pushed by five people together; Each car weighs two or three hundred catties, like a monster with teeth and claws.
This kind of rushing car, the defense is extremely strong, can completely block the impact of any cavalry, even if the heavy armor iron cavalry rushes, it will be stabbed by the sharp blade and even cut off the horse legs that the iron armor can not cover, and finally both are defeated, this is Cao Cao specially created to deal with the 30,000 northern cavalry of the big killing weapon.
The sword and chariot formation is in front, the spear and shield soldiers are behind, and then there are tens of thousands of crossbow soldiers, forming an unbreakable defensive counterattack-style battle formation, even if it is a white horse righteous servant, it can only be discouraged.
Once the cavalry of the Gongsun army in the middle was restrained to death, although the infantry of the Gongsun army had a slight advantage over the Cao army, it was bound to be defeated in the face of the overwhelming strength advantage of the Cao army and the targeted spear array.
What's more, there are more than 7,000 tiger and leopard cavalry generals to assist Xu Huang and Le Jin on the right flank, Cao Cao's tactics are to occupy an overwhelming advantage on the left side of the Gongsun army, and then from the left to the center, gradually tear apart and defeat the battle line of the Gongsun army, once the left side is in chaos, the right side will also take the opportunity to form a crushing momentum, and then the two ways to attack the middle road, then Gongsun Bai will be defeated even if he is a god reincarnated.
Of course, all this had to be done in the haste of the Gongsun Army and in accordance with the conventional tactics to arrange troops to meet the battle.
The two monstrous waves approached rapidly, and the distance between them was only one hundred and fifty paces, and the crossbow arrows of both sides poured down on each other like a heavy rain, and they continued to do so Thundered Seven thousand tigers and leopards rode under the leadership of Cao Chun, taking the lead in coming out, the heavy-armored tigers rode in front of the light armor, the leopards rode behind, and the warriors on horseback, the steel knives in their hands were held high like a forest, and launched a fierce charge to the left flank of the enemy Since their debut, the tiger and leopard riders have been across the Central Plains, without a defeat, but their undefeated myth was broken by the white horse righteousness, which is the shame of the tiger and leopard riders In the bright light of the fire, a puff of smoke and dust suddenly came out from the enemy troops on the opposite side Before the enemy cavalry, a man was nine feet long, riding a nine-foot tall snow horse, white robe and silver armor, and the silver spear in his hand shone in the firelight, and behind him, a fierce general with the same burly figure, straddled the horse, carried the spear and followed, only half a horse's head behind.
Further back, thousands of iron horsemen roared along, all white horses of more than eight feet, all of them were steel swords, all of them were rattan helmets, rattan armor, Teng armor, and white horses At this time, Cao Chun and the tigers and leopards had not yet felt the danger of the whole battle, the so-called enemies saw each other, divided into red eyes, and the appearance of the white horse did not bring them any panic, but increased a little excitement and fanaticism.
Tiger and leopard riding, the first elite soldier in the Central Plains, who will be afraid of Cao Chun's eyes were full of war, and the spear in his hand was raised: "It's just right, revenge, it's better to kill today" Kill, kill, kill The seven thousand tiger and leopard riders roared like thunder, and their fighting intent was monstrous, urging the war horses under their crotches one after another, rolling towards each other like an iron stream, and they were indomitable.
In the blink of an eye, the two elite horses crashed together, and launched a fierce fight, never to the death.
However, at the moment when Bai Ma Yi appeared, the faces of Xu Huang and Le Jin changed greatly.
As the most elite cavalry under Gongsun Bai, and the foundation of Gongsun Bai's life, Bai Mayi was never in the Chinese army, but appeared from the left flank, which shows one thing, that is, Gongsun Bai has also changed his formation, and the original advantage of arranging troops is gone, and it is about to become a disadvantage.
The next moment, the overwhelming sound of iron hooves confirmed their conjecture.
In the midst of the war, countless cavalry from the left flank of the enemy, even the heavy cavalry with men and horses covered with iron armor raised their swords in front, the lightly armed light cavalry raised their crossbows in the back, among the countless embroidered flags, a large banner embroidered with the word "Taishi" under the night sky, it was particularly dazzling.
The second elite cavalry of the Gongsun Army was led by Tai Shi Ci and Guan Hai Iron armor like a wall, horse's hooves like drums, crossbow arrows like rain, long knives like clouds, more than 10,000 cavalry, a row of 1,000 people, a total of fifteen rows, the train was hanging in array, wave after wave to the pikemen on the right flank of the Cao army, and the tens of thousands of horses' hooves trampled the earth on the ground to fly and splash.
At this moment, even the famous five good generals were helpless, their eyes were cold, how could their flesh and blood resist the momentum of the thousand armies, and how could the weak spear pierce the heavy iron armor.
Before Mo Yun rode up, Tai Shici and Guan Hai straddled the good horse, held up the weapons in their hands, and killed Xu Huang and Le Jin together.
With the sound of gold and iron intersecting with weapons and the neighing of horses, Tai Shici faced Xu Huang, Guan Hai faced Le Jin, and the four generals launched a fierce fight.
Boom, boom, boom The iron cavalry in the front row was like a runaway car, and suddenly crashed into the dense clouds of Cao Jun, which instantly stirred up a layer of blood mist, only to hear the sound of broken flesh and bones, the sound of broken wooden guns and desperate screams, for a while, the soldiers of the front army on the right wing of the Cao army were knocked up one by one, broken tendons, blood splashed, and there was no power to fight back at all.
The next moment, a snow-shearled steel knife flashed in the firelight, slashed viciously, and then raised it to the right side, the blade forward, with the help of the momentum of the horse, all the way forward to slash, without too much effort to slash, and then raged in the bush of foot soldiers.
However, in a flash, the infantry on the right flank of the Cao army was already in chaos, and the spears in the hands of these foot soldiers were like a forest, originally waiting for the infantry of the Gongsun army, but waiting for the indestructible heavy armored cavalry in close combat, they were powerless to stop it.
It wasn't until more than 10,000 Mo Yun's cavalry crashed into the enemy army that tens of thousands of Gongsun army foot soldiers, raising their steel swords, followed closely behind the cavalry, slashing and killing those Cao army foot soldiers who were crushed under the impact of the iron cavalry.
The rout of Cao's right flank, even Xu Huang and Le Jin, the five good generals, were already powerless This is true for the right, and it is also true for the left.
Appearing on the left flank of Cao's army were Yan Liang's 12,000 flying wolf riders, also heavily armored iron cavalry in front, light cavalry in the rear, tens of thousands of sword soldiers in the cavalry after the cavalry crushed the enemy, and then killed the water dogs.
Just when the hundreds of thousands of troops on both flanks were fighting bloodily, the army in the middle was at a stalemate.
Cao Cao painstakingly prepared a combination of sword carts, sword and shield soldiers, and crossbowmen for the 30,000 iron cavalry of the Gongsun army, but he did not wait for the cavalry that rushed to kill.
What appeared in front of them were the elite infantry of the Gongsun Army, the 3,000 rattan armor Xiandeng, the 800 heavy armor foot soldiers of the trap camp, and countless sword and shield soldiers.
All the former troops of the Chinese army all held the same big iron shield, and even the rattan armor Xiandeng gave up the rattan shield and replaced it with an iron shield.
Seeing that the enemy army had already killed within nearly thirty steps, with the order of Zhang He, the commander of the middle lane, the tip of the big iron shield that was more than one person high was fiercely inserted into the ground, forming a dense formation, like a copper wall and iron wall, which could not be drained.
Boom, boom, boom The heavy knife carts, with their wheels rolling, collided with the shield array of the Gongsun Army, making a huge iron collision sound, and the sharp blades on the knife carts pierced the iron shield, sparks splashed everywhere.
Ho ho Ho ho The soldiers on both sides stood together, stalemate, under the orders of their commanders, they all exerted their strength, one side pushed the knife cart forward to rush forward, trying to break the opponent's array, and the other side desperately resisted the iron shield to prevent the enemy from taking a step forward.
Gradually, some of the shield soldiers began to be unable to support it, because the enemy's knife cart itself weighed two or three hundred catties, and behind the knife cart, there were five people pushing the cart, and there were only two or three shield soldiers on the opposite side, and it was difficult to support it for a long time.
"General, the brothers of the former army are almost unable to support it, hurry up and make the next plan," Zhang He said urgently.
The long knife in Zhang He's hand was raised high again, and he waved down: "Set fire to the oil bomb" Whew Blazing fireballs rose into the air, cutting red arcs through the air, but they rained down on the enemy's sword carts.
The huge light brought by the flying fire meteor illuminated Gongsun Bai's handsome face more and more plump and shining, and an obvious sly smile hung on the corner of Gongsun Bai's mouth.
