The Wei army of 90,000 horses left Chang'an City and headed eastward.

At this moment, there was still solidified snow on the ground, and the cold wind was bitter and bitterly cold.

After the soldiers and horses went out of the city, they traveled only ten miles, and their cheeks were red from the cold, although in the past few days, Cao Zhen prepared sufficient warm clothes for the Wei soldiers, but the effect was far less than the cotton clothes of the Han army.

As the team was marching, a scout rushed to the rear army and reported to Cao Zhenyu: "General, Zhao Yun will lead two thousand cavalry to follow!" ”

Cao Zhen's face sank: "My grain and grass are all in the rear army, and the Shu army is afraid that my army will march to Tongguan Road and throw away the grain and grass and burden to block their road, so I want to force our army to lose the grain and grass first."

lest when they reach Tongguan Road, our army will block their way with grain and grass. After quickly adjusting Cao Zhang's 3,000 cavalry palace, it would be good to arrive at Tongguan Road. ”

"No!"

Cao Zhang, who was in the front army, soon got the news and led three thousand tigers and leopards to the rear army.

"The Wei army sent tigers and leopards to cover, there are about 3,000 people, we only have 2,000, and there are not enough people." Zhao Yun's lieutenant saw Cao Zhang's tiger and leopard riding to respond, and his face was slightly solemn.

This is the role of cavalry, if Ma Chao's main cavalry is still there, Cao Zhang's 3,000 tiger and leopard cavalry will not pose a threat to the Han army at all.

But because of Sima Yi's strategy, Liu Chan was forced to transfer Ma Chao to deal with Budugen, so that the Han army lacked cavalry.

Now Cao Zhang led 3,000 soldiers and horses to respond, and Zhao Yun only had 2,000 cavalry, and he had no ability to force the Wei army to abandon the grain and grass in advance.

Zhao Yun said in a deep voice: "Our cavalry wants to stay to attack the Wei army, and now it is against the tiger and leopard cavalry, even if it can be won, there will be a lot of casualties, which is not good for the overall situation." Send a message to your Majesty and tell him the situation. ”

The news soon spread to the Han army camp.

Liu Chan ordered: "Even if Cao Zhen makes the tiger and leopard cavalry break off, our army is short of cavalry, then forget it, immediately select a group of strong men in the army to follow, such as to Tongguan Road, the Wei army discarded the grain and grass baggage, let the strong men move things away as soon as possible, clear the road!" ”

"No!"

An hour later, the Han army was also prepared, and Liu Chan personally led an army of 70,000 and slowly followed in the rear.

Chang'an is not far from Tongguan, but more than 200 miles away, if it is cavalry, it will be there in half a day, but the infantry, and it is a foot soldier who retreats with grain and grass, but it has to walk for three days.

The two armies marched day and night, and walked for three days before passing through Huayin and entering Tongguan Road.

Fortunately, on this march, both groups of men and horses were well prepared, especially charcoal, and the soldiers carried some with them, and in the evening. You will light charcoal with utensils to warm up and rest.

On the Tongguan Road, a scout came from the east, marched to the rear army, and reported to Cao Zhenyu: "General Qiyu, thirty miles ahead, I found the Shu army camp!" ”

Cao Zhen's face turned straight when he heard this, and he ordered: "Continue to move forward, twenty miles away from the Shu military camp is reporting!" ”

It didn't take long for the scout to come back and report: "General Qiyu, the Shu army camp is less than twenty miles!" ”

Cao Zhen shouted: "Order Cao Zhang to go to the front army immediately, and all the tigers and leopards will change their armor and break through the Shu army camp as quickly as possible."

Rear army soldiers, abandon all grain and grass to block the road!

Let the Chinese army advance cautiously and protect the body with a shield! ”

"No!"

With Cao Zhen's order, Cao Zhang, who was in the rear, immediately rushed to the front with three thousand tigers and leopards, and they took the armor from the infantry army, and the men and horses were all dressed in armor, and then under the leadership of Cao Zhang, they rushed towards the Han army camp in front.

Later, the sergeants abandoned the grain and grass and put these things on the road to delay the pursuit of the Han army.

Twenty miles behind the Wei army, Liu Chan led the main army here.

A scout Pegasus came to report: "Your Majesty, the Wei army's tiger and leopard cavalry has gone to the front army, and the rear army has also abandoned the grain and grass!" ”

Liu Chan immediately ordered: "The Wei army has been blocked by our army camp, immediately send three thousand strong men to clear the road as quickly as possible!" After the road is cleared, let Zhao Yun lead the armored cavalry to attack the Wei army! After the Wei army was in chaos, let the second uncle lead the heavy cavalry to kill!

All foot soldiers, get ready to fight! ”

"No!"

Tongguan Road, the Han army camp, the Chinese army tent.

A scout rushed into the camp and reported to Zhuge Liangyu: "Qiqi Da Sima, the Wei army is less than twenty miles of our army, and the front is the Wei army's tiger and leopard cavalry!" Its tigers and leopards are all wearing armor, which is similar to my armor and riding equipment. ”

Zhuge Liang nodded, looked at Lin Yuan and ordered: "Ziyu, you go to the mountains to supervise the battle, the tiger and leopard ride like a tiger, shoot it with a divine arm bow!" ”

This is why Liu Chan used the Divine Arm Bow in this battle, the tiger and leopard rider is wearing armor, and the ordinary bow and arrow cannot cause effective lethality to the tiger and leopard rider, and only the Divine Arm Bow can severely damage the tiger and leopard rider.

Cao Zhang led 5,000 tigers and leopards to ride along the Tongguan Road and went straight to the Han army camp to kill.

Because the Wei army did not have stirrups, the soldiers and horses were all armored, which was quite heavy, and the balance was very difficult to control, but fortunately, these tiger and leopard knights were all centurion-level figures, good at riding, and could maintain balance in battle.

However, after a long time, Cao Zhang led the tiger and leopard cavalry to a mile away from the Han army camp.

I saw that the ground outside the Han military camp had been dug with potholes, and because of the cold weather and snow, the ground was hard, so I felt that the traps dug could not hide the traces, and the situation was unobstructed.

A cavalryman pointed to the ground in front of him and said, "General, the Shu army has dug a trap on the ground!" ”

"The land is hard, even if the Han army digs a trap, it is not deep, our soldiers are wearing armor, not afraid of bows and arrows, and rush over with a blow of courage to break the Shu army camp!"

Cao Zhang roared angrily, and urged the war horse to rush towards the Han army camp.

"Drive!"

"Rush me!"

Five thousand tigers and leopards rode horses and galloped away, like thunder, and the Han army camp on Tongguan Road seemed to be broken through in an instant.

"Ahh

"Phew!"

"Get out of the way!"

However, as the tiger and leopard ride into the trap range, the disadvantage of the tiger and leopard riding will be revealed, because the tiger and leopard ride is heavy and there is no stirrup to control, it is difficult to control the balance, even if you know that there is a trap under your feet, it is difficult to control the war horse to avoid or cross, and it is very easy to stumble.

One by one, the tiger and leopard knights stepped into the trap, and the trap made people turn over on their backs, the trap was very ordinary, that is, an ordinary dirt pit, but if the horse stepped on one of its hooves, it lost its balance and fell.

"Hmph, the tiger and leopard riders that dominate the world are going to be destroyed today, shoot me!"

Lin Yuan came to the mountain ridge to command, and after seeing the tiger and leopard rider step into the shooting range of the trap, he immediately ordered the divine arm bow archers to attack the tiger and leopard rider.

With Lin Yuan's order, 10,000 divine arm bows and arrows shot towards the tiger and leopard rider in front.
