Chapter 308. Breakthrough in the middle

The gap between political stability and political chaos is directly reflected in the combat effectiveness of the army! A more direct reflection is arrows!

Hezuo battlefield! Although there are only eight thousand soldiers, plus the Taishan archers, Le Jin has 4,000 archers under him. The rain of arrows shot is enough to cover the narrow shoals of the Zhang River! What's even more fatal is that Cao's army's bows and arrows are endless!

After the coal mines and iron ore in Funiu Mountain were formed, the cost of steel arrows was more than doubled compared to before. This time, the number of arrows carried by Cao's army exceeded 5 million. Although it was flat to the archers, only 500 arrows per person were worth mentioning compared to the per capita bullet reserves of tens of thousands of people in the battlefields in later generations, but in this era, it was already rich.

And just like Sulena, a famous general of the Rest Empire who fought against Crassu, one of the top three giants in Rome, in the battle of Leica, Wang Hou used all the horses he could mobilize to transport arrows from the large camp, and baskets of arrows were continuously transported to the hillside by the civilians.

This time, the archers of Cao's army are also very powerful. No matter whether you attack the battlefield, there are 100 or 10,000 people, I will shoot! The four teams of archers take turns to bow forward, and the rotation room can still play a rest. In half an hour, Yuan Jun organized more than a dozen assaults, and they were all shot back by these expensive arrows.

Without any moves, the Roman legion wore heavy square shields and heavy lobster armor. The 40,000 infantry in the Battle of Kalai could be shot and collapsed under the harassment of the archers of the resting bows and riders, not to mention that the Yuan army had been in chaos for more than a year. The army had experienced many battles and had not changed clothes. The old armor and lacked the ability to counterattack in the long-range, which made them suffer heavy casualties in the shallows of the river, and the cold shallow water beach was dyed red.

The progress of the cavalry of the Yuan army's right wing was not much better. Although it was a cavalry fighting infantry, the lack of stirrups and high bridge saddles has reduced the cavalry's ability to attack the formation, and in terms of physical strength, both sides are not at the same level.

In the long run, the Yuan army had just experienced the Battle of Nanpi, and the Yuan brothers had torn off the battlefield without deciding the outcome. They hurriedly supported their nests. Cao's army set out from Xuchang and stayed at the bottom of Yecheng for most of the time, which was to wait for labor.

Nearer, from the latest raid of the Liangzhou coalition forces in Guanzhong, Yuan Jun was gathering and mobilizing for two and a half hours, but he still got up in the early morning and was hungry. However, Cao Jun relied on his teammates to go up and sell, and at least he had a rest for about twenty minutes, especially they also had a precious high-calorie breakfast!

Another point is that even if several troops were temporarily pinched together, Zhang He's subordinates were all thirty-five years old, either young men or thirty-year-olds, and they had the advantage over veterans in terms of physical strength.

Later generations were very loud, one, two, two, three, and two, and three, and two! A ranking of the military power of famous generals, but now, Wang Hou didn't believe this ranking. At least the unknown Ma Yan in history showed that Wang Hou felt particularly eye-catching. He led the cavalry. He really led the way, swung a big knife and took the lead in attacking the Cao army formation several times. The madman cut at least dozens of Cao's army, and even broke into Zhang He for a while. Wang Hou felt that even if Zhao Yun went, he might not be much better than him.

However, there is a saying that a good woman cannot cook without rice. She has no advantage in equipment and physical strength, and her morale has not reached an overwhelming advantage. She has been fighting against the right team for nearly half an hour, but she still has no progress!

The war was a bit anxious. Not only Yuan’s army on the other side were anxious, but Cao’s army was also extremely anxious. Even Zhang Liao seemed to be a little impatient. He held the telescope brought from Wang Hou and kept looking at Yuan’s right and Cao’s army’s left battlefield.

Seeing that the Hebei cavalry eroded into Zhang He's stairs like the waves slapped the mud and sand, he could no longer bear it. He suddenly came to Wang Hou, knelt on one knee, and begged heavily.

"Prince of the State, Mayan's troops have become exhausted! Please order the attack from the State of the State! Even if you only give the Qingzhou cavalry to a regiment of the Imperial General, the Imperial General is sure to kill him and he will retreat!"

"If we continue to waste this, we will only waste our soldiers. The governor of the state, let's attack!"

In the past, the big leader was quite kind to several managers, but he simply ignored the soldiers like him, and often ignored them directly. At that time, Wang Hou was still angry, but now that he became the leader, he still understands what's going on!

Unlike Han Zhang and Pang De, he had to rely on middle and high-level backbones like Zhang Liao to seize the market and make a fortune! He didn't show off his coolness at all, but he had to helplessly reach out to pull Zhang Liao up, hand the telescope to him, and finally he was a little stuck.

"General Zhang, please see it yourself, and then you can tell me if you understand!"

It is estimated that Yuan Shang really never thought that Qianli Jing would have such a bully brother! It was a coincidence that when Zhang Liao suddenly raised the telescope, another colored flag passed by his eyes. He glared at him in surprise for a long time. Finally, his eyes fell on the Hanjia Bridge, which was almost forgotten.

The rough old face twitched rapidly, and Zhang Liao put his finger on the bridge in a little surprised.

"State Governor!"

This time, holding the telescope, Wang Hou smiled without saying a word.

…………

The fierce battle continued. On the Hezuo battlefield, Cao's archery formation seemed to be endless. Even the warriors of Yuan's army who had attacked the rain of arrows could not get benefits from Le Jin, who was waiting for the low slope. The cavalry of the Right Army organized several more large-scale raids, and they could not open the gap of Zhang He. Seeing that Yuan's army's increasingly tired soldiers were declining, Yuan Shang, who had endured for a whole morning, finally gave a try!

Whoosh~ Whoosh~

Suddenly, more than ten people emerged from the water upstream of Hanjia Bridge. While the bowstring in his hand was not soaked, he suddenly put an arrow in his hand and stood or squatted in the scattered soldiers, and looked at the battlefield. He shot over and then drew his sword and rushed up.

Caught off guard, a few people were killed by arrows. He suddenly turned around and rushed to the front again. He carried his sword and slapped the troops guarding the bridge seven times more, but they were not the same army. Before the few old pawns who were close to each other could react, they were directly chopped to the ground by the raided Yuan army soldiers.

Facing the blood-red eyes of Yuan Jun and fiercely roaring, the first reaction of these veterans who had fought for years was not to fight, but to run away!

He was ready to go. Seeing the dead soldiers chasing the Cao army's guarding the bridge, he suddenly shouted, and thousands of soldiers seemed to emerge from the barracks across the Yuan Junqiao. He rushed over with shields and chopped them up as soon as he saw them.

The old Cao army soldier who was standing across the bridge was also very cowardly holding a spear while fighting, and retreating directly. However, in this skill, the Yuan army's dead soldiers who had dispersed the right guards of the bridge cried and slashed behind them again. After killing a few people, the troops also collapsed!!

Suddenly, almost as visible to the naked eye, the Cao army formation in front of Hanjia Bridge melted and collapsed in an instant, and thousands of old Cao soldiers turned around and ran back, and the dim yellow Yuan Bing also quickly expanded like the black fungus soaked in water.

The left and right troops were all safe, and the central army of Cao's army collapsed first!
