Before the Wuhuan army could engage in the battle, they were already demoralized and died. Unwarranted speculation is the most terrible thing in the world, it will make the 20,000 Wuhuan army think that the Cao army encountered here because Zhang Liao's soldiers and horses have been defeated, and the rumors spread like the wind in the military array, and tens of thousands of people chattered non-stop, which made the Wuhuan king who led the army irritable.

"What are you afraid of!" As the leader of the junior tribe, Gu Jin was rebellious, and he couldn't see such a long time to destroy his prestige, so he immediately wrinkled his brows and hugged his fists and said: "King, I will lead the army first!" ”

Without waiting for the response of Badun and others, Gu Jince's mount dragged out a semi-circle in front of the battle formation, shouting loudly to arouse the morale of his subordinates Wuhuan rangers, and took the lead in killing the right flank of Cao Jun with his bow.

Behind him, more than 5,000 tribal warriors, including assault horses, rangers, and foot soldiers, formed three battle formations and followed. Su Fuyan was still beating the drum in his heart, and when he saw that Gu Jin had been killed, he went out and turned his head to Bandun and said, "This ...... This kid! ”

The leopard's tail banner is displayed in the wind, saying that it is the left flank of Cao's army, but in fact, it is also a complete military formation. At present, there are only two Cao army formations on the opposite side of the road, divided into left and right wings, and there is no front army and rear army. That was the left wing of more than 8,000 people led by Xiahoudun and the right wing of more than 5,000 led by Cao Hong. Because Xiahoudun also carried more than 3,000 baggage troops, the formation appeared larger, but in fact, the real soldiers were comparable to Cao Hong on the right flank, and even the assault combat power was slightly weaker than Cao Hong.

On the other hand, the ability of Xiahoudun's subordinates to continue to fight against each other with baggage is much stronger.

Gujin is a persimmon to pick a soft pinch, but he is clever to pick the more difficult Cao Hong.

In terms of morale, the Cao army's side was much higher, at least their generals were only worried about the huge strength of the Wuhuan army, and they had been adjusting the formation suitable for engagement just now, instead of thinking about running first before the battle was fought like Su Fuyan.

Even so, when thousands of Wuhuan soldiers suddenly separated on the galloping road and rushed towards their military formation, it was difficult to say who was not afraid.

The cavalry advantage of the Wuhuan people is too great, only 5,000 soldiers and horses, of which there are more than 1,000 assault cavalry, more than 1,000 rangers, and the remaining half are foot soldiers, stepping towards the battle array. Before the foot soldiers arrived, the Wuhuan rangers had already sprinkled more than a thousand arrows above the heads of Cao Hong's subordinate troops.

"Spread out!" Under the leadership of Gu Jin, thousands of rangers pulled out hundreds of steps of battle, like a sharp sickle across the edge of Cao Hong's right flank defense line, Cao Hong's shrouded salvo only brought dozens of casualties to the Wuhuan rangers, but the cluster of arrows they shot out made Cao Hong's outermost foot soldiers holding spears killed and wounded hundreds.

The battle broke out in an instant, Cao Hong personally waved the command flag, the vanguard infantry cracked the gap, hundreds of Chinese cavalry rushed out, wanting to meet the front of the rangers to cut off their impact, but only a small group of cavalry crashed into the cavalry battle formation of the Cao army, and more rangers relied on the first strike, the speed of the horses had fully sprinted to let go of the Cao cavalry, and shot accurately at the Cao cavalry with a riding bow...... The cavalry of the Central Plains has always been regarded as a treasure by princes from all walks of life, and Cao Cao's cavalry is no exception, most of them have armor sufficient to protect against bows and arrows, but even if the arrows cannot cause him lethal damage, those arrows that hit the arms and thighs will still cause them a lot of trouble.

In any case, Cao Hong breathed a sigh of relief after the cavalry was killed, and ordered the battle formation to move forward, trying to seize the high ground and create a longer range for the crossbowmen to fight the Wuhuan cavalry that came and went.

It's just that when Cao Hong looked at the battlefield and saw those Wuhuan riders who were still wandering in the distance, wearing fur coats and holding spears and horses, his heart was lifted again, and those enemy horsemen who were responsible for the impact were like guillotines hanging above their heads, and they would slash down at any time, so that he was never at ease.

Compared with these cavalry, the infantry of the Wuhuan army really can't get any benefits, they only have bows and arrows, spears, short knives, and wooden shields are pitiful, compared to the Wuhuan cavalry, they look like a group of slaves, even in the Wuhuan tribe, they are also the lowest status of the group, because of the war was recruited herdsmen, farmers, although desperately carry out the military orders issued by the tribal leader, but in fact they can only do desperately.

At the moment when the Cao army's infantry and Wuhuan's infantry were engaged, the salvo of Zhangwu's spear and crossbow could give them a head-on blow, and it could not cause much impact on the Cao army's battle formation.

When Cao Hong and Gu Jin fell into a fierce battle, the Wuhuan army that was still watching before also covered up. Ku Dun can see clearly, Gu Jin is for them to test the combat power of the Cao army, and at the moment, the combat power shown by the Cao Hongjun is not enough to be the enemy with them, five thousand Wuhuan against five thousand Cao army, the infantry battle is at a disadvantage, but more cavalry can make up for this disadvantage and turn it into their advantage.

The 20,000 Wuhuan army fought against the more than 10,000 Cao army, and the result was naturally self-evident.

It's a win!

Xiahoudun's army moved closer to Cao Hong's troops at the beginning of the battle between Cao Hong and Gujin, Xiahoudun had more armaments, if the two divisions of troops fought, the final result would be to be swallowed up by the boundless Wuhuan army, but if the two phases combined to form a garrison, they could block the enemy's offensive.

The two Cao soldiers and horses converged on the hillside and the heights, with the Xiahou Department on the left and the Cao Hong Department on the right. The right part was always dragged by the soldiers of the Gujin Division, and the left part was also pulled into the battlefield with the pressure of the Bandon Division, and the pressure of Cao Hong's Department rose sharply...... At first, more than 2,000 Wuhuan infantry soldiers could not impact his military formation, but when the Bandun Department attacked in a big way, the number of Wuhuan infantry soldiers who attacked the military formation doubled, and Cao Hong's battle formation showed a crumbling state.

Thousands of Wuhuan rangers roamed around, seizing the opportunity to throw arrows into the Cao army's formation, although they may not really be able to kill and injure Cao's soldiers, but they made the soldiers who were single-mindedly fighting with the Wuhuan infantry frightened, so their morale was declining, but it was Xiahoudun who managed the soldiers to fight well.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Dozens of Cao soldiers in the battle array shouted loudly, thousands of foot archers pulled up hard bows and crossbows to the rear of the Wuhuan army to send a salvo, in a blink of an eye, the Wuhuan sergeant shot over, and the opposite Wuhuan soldiers also returned fire with a rain of arrows, although their bow range and strength are not comparable to the Cao army, but there is an unparalleled advantage in numbers, and the rain of arrows in turns has never stopped.

What really inflicted heavy casualties on Cao's army were those fierce Wuhuan cavalry, who had no bows and crossbows, no shields, only a fast horse and a bright spear, shouting and ramming like a forest of spears...... The horses were badly wounded and the wailing riders were thrown out and smashed into the formation, and the survivors survived in ten steps, but they broke away.

Behind them, thousands of Wuhuan Turquoise Riders turned into monstrous waves and poured into the breach!
