Three Kingdoms Strong Army System

After the scout delivered the news, he quietly waited for Liu Zhang's order.

Liu Zhang was silent for a moment. This place is one day and one night away from Luhun Pass. If it is only a few hours by fast horse, it seems that Cao Cao sent troops yesterday to attack Luhun Pass.

But fortunately, I had a military order early on, ordering the three defenders at Hangu Pass, Luhun Pass and Gucheng not to fight without authorization.

After burning incense, the crossbowmen used up all the arrows in the quiver one after another.

They began to retreat hundreds of steps, and Liu Zhang shouted loudly to the orderling: "Send the order, Wu Yi leads the soldiers to fight!"

Soon, a messenger rode forward on a fast horse, looking for Wu Yi.

Wu Yi immediately led five thousand swordsmen forward, and they had to reach the position where the crossbowman was just now in a very short time.

Every swordsman has a long knife and a shield. These shields are ordinary wooden round shields with certain defensive power.

The defensive power of the wooden round shield is much worse than that of the Gale Shield Guard.

Wu Yi led [-] sword soldiers and quickly arrived at the reserved position. However, they did not immediately pass over the iron wall shield guards in front of them. Instead, they put their swords on the ground in front of them, and then took the stone from their waists.

The stones were small, one-and-a-half inch stones polished into spherical shapes, and they were packed in a net with a rope attached to one end of the net.

These sword soldiers held the rope in their hands, spun it a few times in their hands at an extremely fast speed, and then threw it forward fiercely.

With the help of inertia, these stones can fly hundreds of steps.

Some stones fell on Cao's soldiers, injuring them immediately.

There are five stones hanging from the waist of each soldier.

In just a moment, the five thousand stones were thrown away by the five thousand swordsmen.

Wu Yi pulled out the saber from his waist, pointed at the front and shouted loudly, "Kill me!"

After he shouted, he rushed forward first, and the four thousand iron wall shield guards in front also pushed aside the big shield, making hundreds of openings for them to pass through.

Finally began hand to hand combat.

Wu Yi led five thousand swordsmen and fought in front of the shield formation formed by the iron wall shield guards. The casualties were ongoing.

Liu Zhang looked ahead from a distance, not at all moved by the death of his subordinates every moment.

However, within half an hour, Wu Yi lost one-third of his [-] swordsmen.

On Cao Cao's side, the loss was also not small.

He didn't expect that Liu Zhang's soldiers could throw stones.

"Where is Xu Huang?" Liu Zhang looked at the battlefield ahead.

"The last general is here!" Xu Huangce stepped forward.

"Lead the sword and axe to fight!"

"Promise!" Xu Huang took his pair of axes from the hands of the soldiers, and then led the swordsmen of the headquarters to fight.

The two sides were twenty miles west of Luoyang City, and the battle line was three miles long.

Xu Huang's swordsmen were not worried about being crowded with Wu Yi's swordsmen at all.

Each axeman carried a battle knife or a battle ax on his back. In addition, they also carried two hatchets on their waists.

This hatchet is very small, about seven inches long, nearly four inches wide, and weighs no more than two catties.

They followed Xu Huang and quickly approached the enemy army. When they were still more than twenty steps away from the enemy army, they all took out a hatchet from their waists and quickly threw it forward.

A round of throwing all at once caused hundreds of people to be injured.

Soon, they took out another hatchet from their waists, and quickly threw it forward.

Three thousand knives and axes and six thousand small hatchets killed nearly a thousand enemy troops.

Then, they quickly drew their swords or axes from their backs, and fought the enemy.

Cao Cao saw clearly what happened ahead from the chariot hundreds of steps away.

"Such tactics are rare!"

Guo Jia, who was waiting on the sidelines, pondered for a moment, then said: "My lord, we may learn a little bit. Those sword and shield soldiers carry three stones each, which does not affect their physical strength. Although they are projectiles, they can still hurt some soldiers." , made our soldiers fearful, and cost very little. It's just that the opponent's swordsman "

Before Guo Jia could finish speaking, Cao Cao continued, "Those knife and axemen carry two hatchets each, and it's not bad if they can recover [-]% of the hatchets after throwing them out. We can't afford to spend thousands of hatchets in one battle. ah!"

"Yes!" Guo Jia also sighed.

Although Cao Cao occupied the Central Plains, there are still many aristocratic families who do not want to see him, and his military resources have never been sufficient.

Moreover, hatchets and stones have limited damage.

An hour later, Cao Cao found that his soldiers were no match for Liu Zhang's soldiers one-on-one.

He frowned, as if thinking about the reason.

Liu Zhang's soldiers are mainly in Guanzhong.The main force this time is Guanzhong soldiers and Qiang Hu, etc., who are physically taller than Cao Cao's Central Plains soldiers.

In terms of equipment, the equipment of Liu Zhang's soldiers is better than that of Cao Cao.

Although Cao Cao is good at politics and military affairs, he is not good at economy.

And Liu Zhang has always paid attention to economic development. Under his rule, no matter where, the status of farmers and businessmen is equal.

Therefore, the commercial tax collected by Liu Zhang every year is several times higher than that of Cao Cao.

These huge taxes are enough to support Liu Zhang's investment in the military.

However, Cao Cao's army was not a vegetarian when it went south and north.

Liu Zhang and Cao Cao just sit in the middle army and command the overall situation.

However, everyone found that Cao Cao's side was at a disadvantage, but it was somewhat difficult for Liu Zhang to win completely.

In such a battle, the sun will go down.

Cao Cao couldn't wait any longer and ordered the cavalry to attack.

When Cao Cao's cavalry moved, Liu Zhang seemed to be unable to resist, but Liu Zhang's back finally came.

The 2 Xiongnu and Qiang cavalry who did not appear on the battlefield, led by Ma Chao and Yan Xing, charged directly at Cao Cao's central army.

At this time, Cao Cao's army only had [-] people, and the rest of the troops had all gone into battle.

Seeing the two groups of cavalry rushing towards them, Dian Wei and other generals were shocked. They all knew that with [-] infantry, it would be very difficult to resist [-] cavalry rushing forward.

However, at this time, there is no refund.

Once it retreats, it will be defeated across the board.

"All the generals will join me in formation to meet the enemy, we must block them!~" Dian Wei stepped forward in person.

However, it was getting dark.

Many soldiers would not be able to see clearly at night, but Liu Zhang still did not order the withdrawal of troops, because many of his subordinates had eaten animal offal, and they did not suffer from night blindness.

Cao Cao was still defeated.

Under the escort of the generals, he returned to Luoyang City, but only 5 of the [-] people he brought out of the city remained.

The rest were either killed in battle and captured, or lost.

On Liu Zhang's side, they fought from dawn to dusk, and from dusk to dawn.

Followed Cao Cao's defeated army all the way and killed all the way until they entered Luoyang City.

The two sides fought a battle, and the soldiers had no strength to attack the city again. They could only glance at the city wall of Luoyang, and then withdrew their troops and returned.

There are a lot of things to do to clean up the battlefield and collect prisoners, but these have nothing to do with Liu Zhang. As the commander, of course he returned to Gucheng to rest under the guard of his own soldiers.
