Cao Cao brought 3,000 horses with him on this expedition, not because he didn't want to bring more, but because it was difficult to buy horses in his position.

There was no shortage of smuggling merchants these days, after all, transporting horses to the south could make ten times as much profit as the north. The most important thing is that Fang Yun can't stop others from not selling. It is true that he can buy all these horses, but not to mention the question of money, whether others are willing or not is a problem.

Besides, how many horses can he spend? With the stirrups, the consumption rate of horses dropped dramatically, and now there were enough horses on the horse army's side, and even replacement horses were available. The horse farm has also begun to train new war horses, and the demand for horses has reached saturation.

In such a situation, could he prevent other merchants from doing business? Besides, merchants don't necessarily need to go from him, there are always small roads to bypass his jurisdiction when they go to Yongzhou or Youzhou, not to mention that the biggest business of the Zhang family in Zhongshan, who has now migrated to the county of the Shanshi family, was to sell horses.

Zhang He and Zhang Twenty are both from the Zhang clan in Zhongshan, and at most they are different branches. And Zhen Yi's wife, Zhang, is from this family. According to the agreement with Zhen Yi, Fang Yun will marry Zhen's woman in the future, so the Zhang family will naturally become a relative.

Fortunately, there were not many horses, and Cao Cao spent a lot of money to buy 6,000 horses, and only brought 3,000 cavalry on this expedition.

This cavalry, which he placed on the periphery, was mainly not used for siege, but was more practical to guard against possible enemies in the rear. It's just that what he didn't expect was that Zhang Hehui would arrange 5,000 light cavalry in Tan County, which was commanded by Yang Feng.

They came out with the trapped camp, but everyone's attention was on the trapped camp and they didn't find it for the time being.

According to the usual style of Fang Yun's cavalry, this light cavalry was equipped with a long-range attack weapon as a support. The weapon used by Chen Tao was a throwing spear, while this cavalry used a hand crossbow, or a small repeater.

Yang Feng emphasized melee combat skills, so he focused his training here. Medium-range throwing weapons or something, this requires a lot of practice and coordination, and not everyone can play it.

The hand crossbow is good. And it's also a hand crossbow that can fire three times in a row. The effective attack distance is fifty meters, and within thirty meters, leather armor or even thin iron armor can be directly broken, and almost all ordinary armor can be shot through within twenty meters. It is very effective as a loyalty attack aid, at least to disrupt the opponent's formation at the first time. Then cooperate with the cavalry charge to achieve the effect of tearing through the defense.

The reason why so few armies did this in ancient times was mainly a question of production capacity. Iron weapons need to be built manually, and even each weapon needs to be slowly assembled by professional craftsmen, not to mention the slow production efficiency, and the demand for professional personnel is also very large. In such cases. The ration of basic weapons is very scarce, how can there be spare more auxiliary weapons?

Even, I am afraid that Cao Cao and other ancient people will see this situation as the normal state of war, and they will naturally be hanged!

I saw Yang Feng shouting, and the strong crossbow in his hand was ready to shoot. The five thousand cavalry behind him also dispersed and aimed towards Cao's army. And, under Yang Feng's order. Shooting began one after another.

This is a 15,000-round crossbow bolt, even if the model is smaller than Cao Cao's strong crossbow, but the density and attack range have increased too much. So much so that at least 2,000 people in Cao's army were shot into hedgehogs, and they can still survive in this way, which is really heavenly.

For a troop of 30,000 people, 2,000 people is almost a tenth! It is often said that in ancient wars, it was generally only possible to adhere to the casualty rate of thirty percent of the army without defeat. Elite troops can hold on to fifty percent of the attrition without being defeated. Only a truly strong army, with the existence of a military spirit, can fight to the last person without flinching.

Count the results of the trapped camp. Cao Jun has already lost a tenth of his troops, and I don't know how much he can hold out?

"Break the formation!" Yang Feng didn't care about this, he only knew how to raise a gun and then kill the enemy.

"Break the formation!" The cavalry under his command also shouted. Most of them were border troops who followed Yang Feng to the east and west. When fighting against the invasion of the Xiongnu and Xianbei, they can fight to the last man, and now they will naturally not be cowardly!

The originally scattered cavalry quickly turned into a cone-shaped formation, and under the leadership of Yang Feng, a sharp cone, they rushed towards the Cao army. The trapped camp quickly got out of the way, but in fact it was a bloody way. Give Yang Feng and them room to make way.

Yang Feng and the others, at this moment, can be said to be completely not stingy with horsepower and running hard. In such a situation, the impact caused by the more than 5,000 cavalry, let alone ordinary soldiers, even Xiahoudun and others did not dare to face it directly.

However, they must face it, otherwise this force will still rush into our camp, and it will inevitably be a rout of the soldiers.

Xiahoudun had to turn the aura of heaven and earth and prepare to release his nirvana; And Xu Chu was also accompanied, and he began to prepare for the release of nirvana by his side. Obviously, at this time, only nirvana can play some role.

Yang Feng only looked at the momentum of the two people in front of him, and naturally knew what kind of existence he was facing. He himself had entered the innate realm, although only for a short quarter of an hour. That realm brought him a great sense of mystery, and he still has an endless aftertaste. After a three-month period of weakness, his perception of martial arts has actually improved a lot, so much so that in a year, the force value has reached 97 points, which is one step closer to the true innate nature.

In the face of the nirvana of the two innate generals, Yang Feng was not afraid, but just released his own characteristic 'Shura'. The three-month period of weakness will be weak, otherwise, with his identity as an acquired general, how can he withstand the nirvana of two innate generals?

At that moment, his force value instantly doubled, reaching a terrifying 194 points, which was already somewhat close to the middle stage of innate status.

No matter how powerful Xiahoudun and Xu Chu are, they are just military generals who have just entered the innate level, and for Yang Feng at this moment, they are still tender!

It's true that he hasn't comprehended his own special move, but don't worry. The special move was originally a sublimation of an ordinary attack, triggering a blow from the aura of heaven and earth. Yang Feng relied on his strength to be far higher than the two, and directly raised his gun and stabbed at the two. Combined with his 'horsemanship' talent, this shot actually stabbed out before the two of them used their special moves.

The two were so shocked that they had to knock down the nirvana that had not yet taken shape, otherwise they would inevitably be shot and killed.

The three of them collided violently like this, and the powerful impact force directly caused the three of them to be knocked out, and the horses under the seat were naturally ground into meat puree for the first time.

The difference is. Yang Feng quickly jumped on the horse that his subordinates had brought him and threw himself into the battle again. However, Xiahoudun and Xu Chu were seriously injured, on the one hand, they were shocked by the power of Yang Feng's blow, and on the other hand, they were suddenly hit before the nirvana was formed. The body has received some internal injuries caused by backlash.

At this moment, they were bleeding from seven holes, and after they landed, they spurted out a mouthful of blood. Fortunately, the problem is not too serious, and I can still stand up. With the help of the cronies below, quickly retreat.

In front of the cavalry, there was no one who could stop them. With a wave of attacks. Cao's army was completely defeated. Cao Cao had to give the order to retreat, and the whole army retreated, and he couldn't even take care of the baggage. Fortunately, the belongings have been shipped back in batches, otherwise it would really be worth the loss.

At the same time, I couldn't help but be surprised, why are there such strong subordinates under this Fang Yun's command?!

He knew the strength of Xiahoudun and Xu Chu best, and the two of them were absolutely strong at that time. But in front of him, he was so embarrassed, so how powerful is he?!

Not to mention the trapped camp, every soldier actually has second-rate general-level combat effectiveness (that's the existence of 75-84 force points). Put it in other forces. I'm afraid that he is already very precious and entrusted with a heavy responsibility, can he only be an ordinary soldier here in Fang Yun? This is just a partial division, if it is his own army, how terrible should it be?

At that moment, Cao Cao seemed to realize the difference between himself and Fang Yun, and he was unwilling, and he had to secretly weigh it, he had to find a way to further expand his sphere of influence, otherwise he was afraid that he would not be able to face Fang Yun's southward movement!

"Haha, it seems that we don't have anything to do!" Not far from the hills. Sun Ce looked at the battlefield and smiled.

"It's just that Tao Qian doesn't seem to have such a powerful army, where did they come from?" Ji Ling frowned.

"The rescue that Tao Qian can request is nothing more than Qingzhou and Yuzhou, corresponding to Gong Jing and Liu Bei's soldiers. Gong Jing is just a housekeeper. It is not easy to guard Qingzhou, and there are few capable generals under his command, so naturally it will not be him.

And Liu Bei has just seized Yuzhou from us, and he is afraid that it will be too late to digest it, so how can he divide his troops to come to the rescue? He is not afraid that the emptiness in the rear will be taken advantage of by us? So. This must be the forces of other forces...... As a result, it is very likely that it is Fang Yun's troops! Sun Ce analyzed.

"That Fang Yun from the Yellow Turban Army?" Ji Ling was a little surprised.

"Heroes don't ask about their background, Fang Yun, who can be the emperor of the Han Dynasty and the general, how can it be simple? I have to say that if this unit is under his command, then it is also very bad news for us! Sun Ce couldn't help but become serious, after all, if he wanted to be alone. If you stand up, you will inevitably have to face Fang Yun in the future.

"Let's go, go clean up the mess for them! Now Cao Cao is only defeated at most, as long as he gathers the rout, there may not be no room for further fighting. Now that we're here, don't give him a chance to be naughty! Immediately, Sun Ce licked his lips and gave the order to attack.

The army quickly slaughtered and killed the Cao army.

Cao Cao did plan to go to the Pengcheng area to regroup and attack again, but he didn't want another army to suddenly come out. As a last resort, he could only flee with 3,000 cavalry, as well as 2,000 elite cronies, or 5,000 people.

As for the rest of the rout, he obviously couldn't take care of it anymore.

Three days later, with the cooperation of Yuan Shujun and Fang Yunjun, Pengcheng County and even Pei County were recovered one after another. Cao Jun finally had to leave Xuzhou and return to Yanzhou. Fortunately, a batch of military spending has been harvested this time, and it only needs to be regrouped, and Cao's army still has the strength to fight.

On Fang Yun's side, Zhao Yun had already come to Xuzhou with the cavalry of the 5,000 Flying Wing Battalion and began to join Zhang He.

They currently have a more important problem to deal with, and that is how to deal with Yuan Shu's army! (To be continued.) )

PS: Maybe there was really another era when powerful generals decided the outcome of this war, but in the battles of destroying the country and anti-destroying the country again and again, some important inheritances were lost, so we can't see it. Especially with the rise of firearms, and after the beginning of the superstition of firearms, we even developed doubts and distrust of that era.
