"From this point of view, Cao's army outside the city and in the city are each other's horns. If you want to take back Nanpi City, you must first eat the Cao army outside the city."

Fengji analyzed.

"That's right, but if we want to kill Cao Jun, we must unite as one and not fight alone."

Ju Shou suggested.

Everyone's eyes immediately fell on Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.

Although the Yuan family is now divided into three parts, in the final analysis, it is only a dispute between Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang.

"Xianfu, if you trust me, let me take full command, how about it?"

Yuan Tan said in a deep voice.

Yuan Shang also knew in his heart that when it comes to marching and fighting, his ability is far inferior to that of his elder brother.

So he thought for a moment, then nodded and said,

"Easy to say, easy to say."

"Su You, Lu Kuang, Lu Xiang!"

The three generals who were named suddenly came out,

"The end is here!"

"The three of you will follow my elder brother's command for now, understand?"

"understand!"

The three nodded heavily.

Seeing Yuan Shang being so forthright, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Chunyu Qiong also nodded and said,

"Eldest Young Master, if there is an order, the general will obey it."

"So good!"

The big stone in Yuan Tan's heart fell to the ground, a smile appeared on his face,
"This battle will definitely make Cao Mao come and go!"

After discussing for a while, everyone got up and left.

After leaving Yuan Shang's camp, Yuan Tan glanced at the silent Ju Shou behind him, and said with a light smile,

"Why is the military division so depressed?"

"Third Young Master said that he agreed so easily, but I'm afraid that he'll do everything in his favor."

Ju Shou sighed,
"If so, it is absolutely impossible for us to defeat Cao Mao!"

Yuan Tan felt a little heavy when he relaxed just now.

And at the same time.

Yuan Shang's Chinese army camp.

"Although I ordered you to obey my elder brother's orders, you should be careful, understand?"

Yuan Shang looked at the three generals under his command with a serious expression,

"If he has the idea of ​​consuming us, you must not follow blindly!"

"After Cao's army is defeated, remember to act first and kill my elder brother's men first!"

The three said in unison,
"Here!"

……

Yuan Tan and Yuan Shang originally had 7 horses each, while Chunyu Qiong had [-].

But after these few days of fighting, the two brothers have suffered heavy losses, and now the total is only 12.

The next morning.

The three parties assembled in formation, ready to attack Cao Jun.

"Brother, please!"

Yuan Shang made a gesture of invitation and asked Yuan Tan to step forward to command the army.

Yuan Tan naturally did not refuse, and took over the command.

Chunyu Qiong's army had many cavalry, so Yuan Tan arranged his troops on the left wing.

Su You, Lu Kuang, and Lu Xiang, who are mainly infantry, are in the Chinese army.

On the other hand, Yuan Tan's unit, which was mixed with infantry and cavalry, was right-wing.

After rectifying the formation, Yuan Tan, the general, shouted loudly,

"Attack!"

Dozens of drummers beat the war drums heavily.

"Boom boom boom!"

Heavy drums resounded across the battlefield.

The 10,000+ Yuan Jun lined up and slowly pushed towards Nanpi City!

"It seems that the two brothers have put aside their personal grievances for the time being."

Cao Mao chuckled, and said to Pang Tong who was beside him,
"Military division, this battle is up to you to command."

"Here!"

Pang Tong nodded, stepped forward, and said in a deep voice,
"Command the left and right wings, the ballista is ready!"

The flag bearer on the city wall waved the flag in his hand, and conveyed Pang Tong's order to the generals in the army through the flag language.

Lu Bu and Guan Yu, who were on the left and right wings, shouted loudly after receiving the order,
"Cavalry disperse, dispatch ballistas!"

On the other hand, Yuan Tan in the opposite army frowned and said to himself,
"What is Cao Mao planning to do? Aren't you afraid that I will take the opportunity to kill his wings?"

"My lord, why don't you send someone up to test it first?"

"Alright!"

Yuan Tan nodded slightly, and ordered,

"Send an order to General Chunyu to send someone to attack Cao Jun's left wing!"

"Wang Zhao!"

"The end is here!"

Wang Zhao brazenly came out.

"You lead 3000 troops to test Cao Jun's right wing. Cao Mao is very cunning, you have to be careful!"

"The last will obey!"

Wang Zhao gathered 3000 troops and rushed out of the formation like a whirlwind.

On the other side, Chunyu Qiong did not hesitate after receiving Yuan Tan's order.

He sent Zhao Rui, the cavalry governor under his command, also with 3000 troops!
"Rumble!"

Six thousand Yuan Jun cavalry, like two protruding fists, swung fiercely at Cao Jun's formation!
Seeing Cao Jun's loose formation, Wang Zhao and Zhao Rui smiled in unison.

Cao Jun like this would probably be able to disperse them in one round!
At that time, the eldest son only needs to send a large army to attack the middle of Cao Jun, and the two of them attack from the left and right wings, and they can defeat Cao Jun in one fell swoop!
"kill!"

The two of them shouted in unison!
However, before they got close to Cao Jun's position, they suddenly discovered that Cao Jun pushed up a row of unicycle chariots from behind!
The chariot is supported by a box made of wood, but protruding from the top of the box are thick and sharp arrows shining with cold light!
This... Could this be a ballista?

Wang Zhao and Zhao Rui's hearts sank!
Although they have never seen a ballista, they have heard of this weapon in the report of Gao Gan's attack on Hanoi!
At that time, Cao Mao had only ten crossbow carts, and he blocked the Huns' army of tens of thousands!

Today, among Cao's troops, there are almost a hundred vehicles!
At this moment, the flag bearer on the city wall waved the flag in his hand heavily!

After receiving the order, Lu Bu and Guan Yu shouted sharply,

"shoot!"

The soldiers of Cao Jun who were manipulating the ballista pulled the mechanisms in their hands.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Densely packed crossbow bolts shot out from the ballista.

They tore through the air with a high-pitched whistling sound.

Before Yuan Jun's cavalry could react, the crossbow arrows flew in front of them!
The cavalry in the first row had no time to dodge, and they were penetrated directly with their horses!
However, the crossbow arrows were still unabated. After shooting three or four soldiers of Yuan Jun into candied gourds, they fell to the ground!

In just one face-to-face effort, hundreds of Yuan Jun soldiers were shot to death!

But it's not over.

You must know that this ballista can fire continuously, and there are ten crossbow arrows in the arrow box!
"Whoosh whoosh!"

The sharp piercing sound echoed on the battlefield.

In front of this sharp crossbow arrow, the armor on Yuan Jun's cavalry was like paper paste, and it could not protect at all!

It wasn't until the arrows on nearly a hundred ballistas were exhausted that the ballista stopped firing!
The [-] Yuan Jun cavalry did not even get close to Cao Jun's army formation, so they lost most of them!
And the two generals Zhao Rui and Wang Zhao who took the lead and rushed to the front were shot to death on the spot in the first round of salvo!
Seeing the remaining thousand or so cavalry fleeing back like frightened birds, Yuan Tan, Ju Shou, Chun Yuqiong and other generals all gasped!
