Chapter 149
About two hours after Niu Jin led his army to leave the camp, Wei Yanma gave an order, and all the soldiers and horses quickly assembled.
The 10,000 Han army divided into three teams, like three sharp knives, approaching the left battalion of the Cao army.
Cao Jun obviously already knew that Wei Yan was going to attack the big camp, the antlers, horse stakes, barricades, etc. at the entrance of the camp were densely placed in front, on top of the four arrow towers, there were about five or six hundred crossbowmen, a thousand sword and shield soldiers used shields to form a three-layer phalanx, the shield was flanked by crossbowmen, in the middle was a pikeman, and a young general immediately crossed the gun, in the middle of the soldiers.
Although the defense of the Cao camp was very tight, Wei Yan was undaunted, swung the big knife in his hand, and three teams of soldiers and horses rushed towards the Cao camp from three directions.
"Kill!"
The two sides have been facing each other for many days, and the soldiers seem to vent their full anger, and the shouts of killing are deafening.
"Drop the arrow!"
The young general in the Cao camp shouted, and immediately the arrows were like a rainstorm and spilled towards the Han army.
The Han soldiers quickly raised their shields, but many were still shot by arrows and fell to the ground.
However, the soldiers behind were undaunted and still rushed forward.
The crossbowmen of the Han army also began to fight back, and arrows flew everywhere in the sky, as if locusts were transiting, and the Cao army on the arrow tower fell one after another.
Barricades and horse piles forced the running Han soldiers to stop and clean up, and then the Cao army's crossbowmen aimed at them, and hundreds of people were shot dead in an instant.
"Rush over!" Wei Yan shouted, while waving the Ling Qi in his hand.
The barricades and horse stakes were finally cleared, and the Han soldiers rushed to the gate of the camp, slammed heavily on the opponent's shield, and a scream was heard, and the soldiers in front were pierced through the chest by the spears of the Cao army.
But the soldiers behind rushed up again, swung the sharp Han knife in their hands, split one shield in half, and the two sides fought together.
When the young general of Cao Jun saw this situation, his face changed slightly, obviously not expecting that their shield would be so vulnerable under the attack of the Han army. And the strong combat power shown by the Han army also surprised him.
There are only about 2,000 soldiers at the gate of the camp, how can they withstand the attack of tens of thousands of people? It didn't take long for the Cao army to rout, and Wei Yan commanded the three routes of soldiers and horses into the camp.
The young general of the Cao army led the soldiers, and retreated step by step, until he reached the center of the large camp, surrounded by the Han army.
"Stop!" Wei Yan waved the large knife in his hand, and the Hanzhong soldiers stopped attacking, rearranged the formation, and the crossbowman put the arrow on the string and aimed it at the Cao army in the middle.
"Who are you?"
"King Wei, Captain Guo Huai!"
"Guo Huai, you have tried your best, surrender!" Wei Yan became interested in this Guo Huai.
Although Xia Houyuan secretly withdrew his troops, he could not hide it from Wei Yan, he knew that there were five thousand soldiers and horses left in the left camp, and he thought that he could easily take it, but unexpectedly, the enemy general commanded moderately, making him pay a certain number of casualties.
"Do you know that General Xiahou has withdrawn?" Guo Huai was a little strange, it stands to reason that Wei Yan would be surprised and annoyed when he learned that Xia Houyuan had withdrawn, but he did not expect to be so calm.
"Xia Houyuan can't escape Nanyang!" A sneer flashed across Wei Yan's face, "Guo Huai, as long as I give an order, these soldiers of yours will be shot immediately. You also have the talent of a great general, my lord is thirsty for merit, and you are a clan relative of the Han family, if you return, you will definitely be reused, make meritorious achievements, seal your wife and son, and become a hero of the Great Han! "
Although the Han dynasty has declined, the people's idea of loyalty to the monarch is still there. Guo Huai, who was already determined to die, also moved his heart after listening to Wei Yan's words. Because the surrender of Liu Jun is not disloyal in general sense.
"General Wei can also surrender if I want to surrender, then you must have this ability!" Guo Huai urged him to take two steps forward and slammed the big gun in his hand, "You must defeat this gun in my hand!" "Good
!" Wei Yan urged the war horse and came to the middle.
As soon as Guo Huai hit the horse, he rushed to Wei Yan, raised his gun and stabbed.
Wei Yan used the head of his knife to swing Guo Huai's big gun outward and slashed it diagonally.
Guo Huai dodged away, and the two horses circled and fought together.
Guo Huai was born into a family of martial generals, his father Guo Yi was once a Yanmen taishou, and his grandfather Guo Quan was a great sinong in the dynasty, so he was very good at martial arts.
A gun flew up and down, like a dragon going out to sea and a fierce tiger descending the mountain.
However, Wei Yan was not in a hurry, relaxed and comfortable.
The soldiers of the Han army kept shouting and cheering, while the soldiers of the Cao army nervously watched the fight between the two in the field, because their outcome would determine the life and death of these people.
After more than thirty rounds, Guo Huai was clearly in the inferior position. He was also very shocked in his heart, because Guo Huai was full of confidence in his martial arts.
Wei Yan's age was not much different from him, and now he became a general in the army, and Guo Huai originally thought that there were not many generals under Liu Yan, so Wei Yan had such a good opportunity. But now it seems that there are so many heroes in the world! This Wei Yan's martial art can be compared with Xia Houyuan, Xu Huang and others.
After barely fighting for another ten rounds, Guo Huai withdrew from the battle circle.
"General Wei's martial arts are far above me, which makes me convinced!" After speaking, he looked at the soldier behind him, "Put down your weapons and surrender!" The
soldiers immediately threw all their weapons on the ground.
The Cao army surrendered more than 2,000 troops, and in this battle, the Han army also suffered more than 1,000 casualties.
After the battlefield was cleared, all the tents were collected.
Xiang Pet and Fu Wei also led the soldiers down from the mountain.
"General Wei, how is Wancheng, Xincheng, Xiahou Yuan's army..." Xiang Pet had too many doubts, or worries.
"Don't worry, Captain Xiang! Everything is under the master's control..."
Wei Yan repeated the whole process, and Xiang Pet, Fu Wei, and Guo Huai, who had just returned, were shocked after hearing this.
"The Lord is really a god and a man!" It took a long time to mumble to the pet. He simply can't imagine that this big war from Nanyang to Xinye, it is already hundreds of miles of battlefield, the tiger left the mountain, and the plan was used in a row, but he didn't expect that the lord would plan again, and also led the war to Yuzhou, came to a siege to save Zhao, and finally closed the door to catch the thief, all this looks dazzling, how did you come up with it?
"The lord's vision is originally unmatched, plus Master Pang has the talent of heaven and earth, and their plans are comparable to Xu Huang and Xia Houyuan!" Wei Yan smiled and said, "From here to Wancheng, there are not many enemy troops left, I will replenish you with a thousand soldiers and horses, and you will quickly escort the food and grass over!"
"Thank you General Wei! I wonder where General Wei is going?
"Lu Zhao led five thousand soldiers and horses to Xinye, and I was ordered by the military division to annihilate them!"
