The First Military Division of the Three Kingdoms

As for Zhang Liao's [-] cavalry, the mere [-] cavalry could not pose any threat. If Chen Ziming hadn't ordered it, it would be great if Li Feng's [-] cavalry could escape from Zhang Liao's iron hooves.

"No, this is Chen Ziming's plan."

When Cao Hong learned that Li Feng led people out of the city to chase Chen Ziming, his face changed drastically, and his military adviser Mao Jie also frowned, thinking that the current situation is a bit unfavorable.

"Immediately send an order to Ding Yi, the Shangdang guard, not to open the city gate unless this general comes personally."

"Order the army to move forward quickly and wait for Chen Ziming's soldiers and horses to investigate."

Cao Hong had even decided that Lifeng was over, and Chen Ziming was likely to fraudulently open the Shangdang city gate, so he hurriedly sent out orders one after another.

However, before Cao Hong's army arrived outside Shangdang City, they received a messenger from Lifeng asking for help. It turned out that Lifeng had not been wiped out by Chen Ziming, but miraculously held back Chen Ziming's army. Although he suffered heavy losses, he was at least alive. .

"It's impossible. Chen Ziming has Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, Zhang Liao and other powerful generals by his side, and he is Li Feng's opponent." Cao Hong was the first one who didn't believe that Li Feng could hold Chen Ziming back. He will also be hacked to death by several fierce generals beside Chen Ziming.

General Cao Hong is very clear about how capable Li Feng is. As for how strong Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Zhang Liao are, Cao Hong is even more aware that even he may not be able to beat these strong generals.

"I'm afraid this is Chen Ziming's plan, and it's aimed at the general." Mao Jie thought for a while and said, "Use Lifeng to lure the general to go for reinforcements, and then lie down and rape him."

"Hmph!" Cao Hong shouted coldly: "This general came here with [-] elite troops, a mere [-] soldiers and horses, and I can't fight with you. Besides, this place is flat and there is no dangerous place to use. How can he ambush his troops? If you want to fight with me, I will accompany you."

Cao Hong also has the capital of self-confidence. The soldiers and horses under his command are all elite divisions. Both their own combat power and weapons and equipment are not bad, and there are more than 5 horses against Chen Ziming's [-] cavalry. Although it is a bit difficult, the winning rate is still high. very big.

The most important thing is that Cao Hong dares to fight. As long as Chen Ziming can be defeated and Chen Ziming cannot go to rescue Jingyang, that is victory. As long as Jingyang is won, the entire northwest region will belong to Cao Cao. What is he afraid of?

"General Qi, Chen Ziming's soldiers and horses are all in the lower hills, and there is no division of troops."

When Cao Hong received Li Feng's request for help, he immediately led the army towards Chen Ziming. Of course, Cao Hong was also afraid of being tricked by Chen Ziming, so he sent countless servants to investigate the situation along the way.

When Cao Hong learned that Chen Ziming's soldiers and horses were waiting for him in the flat place of Xiaqiu, he was relieved, and at the same time, he was puzzled. He didn't know what Chen Ziming wanted to do when he fell to the ground. Could it be that he really wanted to fight him there?

"The spies came to report that apart from Chen Ziming's troops, Liu Bei did not send other reinforcements, and Liu Bei's troops in the direction of Taiyuan were silent."

Mao Jie also couldn't understand what Chen Ziming wanted to do. With 2 people wanting to fight against Cao Hong's [-] elite, isn't that courting death? Even if you are all cavalry, it doesn't matter, they have many ways to restrain the cavalry. Just people.

"In that case, let's all stay."

Murderous intent flashed in Cao Hong's eyes, and he wanted to take this opportunity to take Chen Ziming down, that would be a great contribution.

The reason why he came with a large army was that he was also afraid that Chen Ziming would bring cavalry to rescue Jingyang. If Chen Ziming was allowed to go there, Cao Cao's plan would be ruined. Now it seems that Chen Ziming has other plans, but Cao Hong is not afraid, because his strength lies there .

Half a day later, Cao Hong's army merged with the remnant of Li Feng's army, and set up a stance against Chen Ziming.

"General, it's getting late today, and the army has traveled a long distance, and the soldiers are exhausted. Do you want to withdraw the troops and fight again tomorrow?"

In front of the formation of the army, Mao Jie looked at Chen Ziming's army not far away, feeling a little uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly persuaded Cao Hong to give up his current plan of attacking.

"I'm afraid it's too late. Chen Ziming won't let me wait to set up camp." Cao Hong frowned. Now is really not a good time for a decisive battle. Most of his soldiers are infantry. They marched all the way from Hangu Pass, and now they are exhausted. .

Although Chen Ziming's soldiers and horses also marched all the way and did not have much rest, they were all cavalry after all, and their horses were tired at most, and their combat effectiveness must still be there. Cao Hong did not want to have a decisive battle with Chen Ziming now.

But judging by Chen Ziming's stance, if Cao Hong dared to withdraw his troops to set up camp, and Chen Ziming's cavalry charged, his soldiers and horses would definitely suffer heavy losses. This era pays attention to the art of war, but not to etiquette. .

"It's almost there, third brother, it's up to you."

At this time, Chen Ziming seemed calm, but he was not sure. After all, he was facing Cao Cao's elite teacher.

"Look at me."

After hearing Chen Ziming's words, Zhang Fei took the lead, and behind him came the 5000 cavalry Fangzheng. Different from the other cavalry, the cavalry behind Zhang Fei was dressed very differently.

The horse he was riding was very tall, and he was covered in gleaming fish-scale armor covering the entire body of the horse. The soldiers on the horseback were also full-body armor, holding spears in their hands.

"Heavy cavalry, charge!"

Zhang Fei let out a loud roar, swung Zhang Ba's spear horizontally, and rushed towards Cao Hong at the head of the horse.

Chapter 431 Invincible!

"No, they are all in iron armor, and their guns and arrows are hard to hurt. Don't let them rush into the formation!"

Cao Hong, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, saw the iron cavalry led by Zhang Fei. Although he had never encountered it before, he quickly saw the difference.

"The long halberd moves forward, rejecting the formation of horses!"

With Cao Hong's order, a group of halberd soldiers walked out of the formation and formed a cavalry nemesis formation in front. If ordinary cavalry charged and collided with the formation of repelling horses, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.

"Longbow ready, shoot the enemy!"

A team of archers raised their bows and arrows forward 45 degrees, waiting for the cavalry led by Zhang Fei to come into range. Once the team leader archers shot, ordinary cavalry would surely suffer casualties, and at the same time, the charging cavalry formation would appear. Slowdown and confusion.

"Lancers move forward, ready to meet the enemy!"

All the spearmen walked to the front of the army formation, arranged their formation behind the halberd formation, and waited for a battle between infantry and cavalry.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei saw that Cao Jun had set up his formation without the slightest fear, roared angrily, and accelerated towards the enemy again.

"Prime Minister, Cao Hong's formation of repelling horses is very harmful to General Zhang. May I go to help him?"

Zhang Liao is also a good general who has experienced many battles. He can see at a glance that the current situation is not good for Zhang Fei, so he hastily called for a fight.

"No, just wait and see."

Chen Ziming still had great confidence in the heavy cavalry he had formed. If Zhang Fei's heavy cavalry couldn't break through the formation, then Zhang Liao's ordinary cavalry would be useless and would only increase casualties.

"What fierce iron cavalry!" Ma Chao and Pound grew up on horseback, and they can be said to be the most cavalry generals in Liu Bei's group. Now they saw the momentum of Zhang Fei's heavy cavalry charging, and they were shocked.

"If such an iron cavalry rushes into the army, who will be it!" Pound also looked surprised. Previously, Zhang Fei had two cavalry, and one of the horses was specially used to carry heavy armor, which made Pound very puzzled. You must know that even war horses that carry heavy armor are very good, even in Xiliang, such war horses are very rare, and now they are used to carry armor, and Pound feels that they are too talented and useless.

But now it seems that it is not what he thought. Pound has no good solution to such a heavy armored cavalry fighting head-on.

"shoot!"

As soon as the heavy armored cavalry led by Zhang Fei entered the range of Cao Hong's archers, with a loud roar, five thousand long arrows rushed into the sky, heading straight for the heavy cavalry charging fiercely.

"kill!"

Zhang Fei roared, he didn't care about the sharp arrows flying towards him, he only had eyes on the enemy formation in front of him.

"clang!"

"clang!!"

"..."

The sharp arrows hit the galloping heavy cavalry, but Cao Hong didn't turn their backs on their backs as Cao Hong thought. The heavy cavalry formation didn't appear chaotic or slowed down at all, and the roar of the galloping horses was getting closer and closer.
