Chapter [206] Pedal Crossbow
Let Jia Mu go to assemble the army, while Lu Bu climbed to the top of Hangu Pass and looked into the distance.
I saw Cao Ying on the opposite side, and at this moment, countless troops rushed out towards the Yellow River to the north, all of them carrying rafts and boats.
However, Lu Bu was not alarmed. With an army of hundreds of thousands crossing the river, even if there were enough boats, they would not be able to finish the run in a few hours.
What's more, Lu Bu also knew that he couldn't kill Cao Cao's army by himself, and delaying for a while was not a big deal, so there was no need to rush out to intercept Cao's army.
And he couldn't finish killing himself, and Yuan Shao was waiting on the other side of the river.
When Cao Jun was crossing the river, he inflicted a serious injury on his own, and when he reached the other side of the river, the Yuan army inflicted another serious injury on Cao Jun.
Not surprisingly, Cao Cao's 200,000 troops will be gone.
Even if they didn't all die, they would definitely be captured by Yuan Jun after crossing the river. Anyway, Cao Cao couldn't keep them.
"Your Majesty, the entire army has assembled." Jia Mu shouted from below.
"You stay and stay at Hangu Pass with 10,000 soldiers." Lu Bu gave an order, and then said loudly: "-The others leave the pass alone."
Hangu Pass must be left with some troops to guard, otherwise if Cao Cao does not cross the river and rushes towards Hangu Pass, things will be bad.
Jia Mu has no objection to this, since his title has come to an end anyway, he doesn't have any pursuit of military merit, instead he prefers to stay on this safer task, which Jia Mu prefers.
Dad Jia Xu doesn't need any credit, Jia Mu's official position and title are rising.
With 10,000 guards in the city, Lu Bu left Hangu Pass with an army of 80,000, including 20,000 cavalry.
When defending the city, because the Cao army failed to approach Hangu Pass, the Qin army did not suffer any casualties.
The only casualty was that the cavalry of the Qin army had a hard fight with the tiger and leopard cavalry.
While successfully destroying the tiger and leopard cavalry, the cavalry of the Qin Army paid a price of 10,000 casualties.
After the 80,000 troops left the city, Lu Bu did not charge in a hurry, but first observed the enemy's situation.
At this moment, Cao Jun's camp on the opposite side was completely in disarray, and the soldiers ran to the river with rafts on their backs.
As for the larger number of civilian husbands, everyone carried food and fled towards the east, intending to walk back to Yanzhou.
"Move out the cavalry and stop these peasants. They are all excellent labor." Lu Bu ordered immediately.
In the eyes of superiors, not only land, food, and money are resources, but population is also a resource, and it is also a precious resource.
Under Lu Bu's rule, the population is still relatively small, especially in Liangzhou. Due to the migration to the Ningxia Plain, the entire Liangzhou is deserted for thousands of miles.
These hundreds of thousands of young and strong are all brought to Liangzhou for reclamation, and the grain harvest will be improved again.
As for the issue of resettlement, before Lu Bu came to power, Guanzhong and Liangzhou were in constant war. Even after Lu Bu came to power, there were many battles. The problem, anyway, remarriage is not a big deal these days.
"You are not allowed to massacre civilians." Lu Bu warned, and said: "Of course, if anyone dares to attack you, there will be no pardon!"
"Here!!!"
The 20,000 cavalrymen of the Qin Army headed straight for the fleeing peasants in the distance. Although there were only 20,000 of them, there was no problem in stopping these peasants.
After the cavalry left, Lu Bu went straight to Cao Jun with the remaining 60,000 infantry.
riverside.
Cao Hong was wearing Cao Cao's clothes, and Chun stood beside him.
"It seems that there are only 50,000 to 60,000 people." Cao Hong looked at the incoming Qin army and estimated the strength, "Meet the enemy!"
Following Cao Hong's order, a phalanx lined up went directly to the Qin army, and then they took out their bows and arrows one after another. When the Qin army entered the attack range, these Cao army soldiers would immediately shoot their bows and arrows.
The phalanx was lined up in advance, and it looked like it had been prepared long ago, and the number of people was very large. This was a phalanx of one hundred thousand troops.
It was originally to counter Lu Bu's cavalry, and the phalanx was formed in advance.
Now Lu Bu's cavalry rushed to the civilian husbands, and the phalanx was changed into a shooter phalanx in an instant.
As for the remaining Cao army, they are methodically entering the Yellow River and heading towards the opposite bank.
Although it was a withdrawal, Cao Jun did not appear to be defeated. He was well-trained and retreated in an orderly manner, without any embarrassment.
"One hundred thousand people will shoot against fifty thousand or sixty thousand people, let's see who can't handle it first." Cao Chun said in a relaxed tone.
The only thing Cao Jun was worried about was Lu Bu's cavalry. Cao Hong and Cao Chun felt that there was nothing to be afraid of against the Qin Army's infantry. After all, Cao Jun had more troops.
However, the development of things soon exceeded Cao Hong and Cao Chun's expectations.
Sitting on horseback, Lu Bu has been observing the distance between the two armies. Through his super vision, he can accurately measure the exact distance between the two armies, instead of using the method of "estimating".
"Stop!" Lu Bu reined in his horse and stopped, and the 60,000 troops behind him stopped immediately. They were also well-trained and prohibited by order.
Cao Hong, who was on the opposite side, couldn't help being surprised when he saw Qin Jun stop, "Why did they stop suddenly?"
"It's not surprising, Lu Bu is not stupid, he must know that shooting against us will not lead to good results." Cao Chun took it for granted, "The number is half of us, as long as there is nothing wrong with his brain, how could he rush to shoot against us."
"What you said makes sense." Cao Hong couldn't help but nodded, "If it's possible not to do anything, it would be nice for us to withdraw smoothly. y
"Alas~" Cao Chun sighed, "It's a pity that the tiger and leopard rode this time."
Cao Chun was the leader of the tiger and leopard cavalry, and the tiger and leopard cavalry system was directly defeated. Apart from Cao Cao, Cao Chun was the most uncomfortable.
"No way, who made us lose the battle, let's open it up." Cao Hong comforted.
0…ask for flowers………
While the two were chatting, they suddenly saw Qin Jun lying on the ground opposite him, and both of them were dumbfounded.
"What's wrong? What is this for?" Cao Hong subconsciously asked.
"I don't know!" Cao Chun couldn't figure it out either.
"Let it go!!!" Lu Bu shouted violently, resounding throughout the wilderness.
The position chosen by Lu Bu is about 190 steps away from Cao Jun, which can ensure that Cao Jun's bows and arrows will not be able to hit the Qin Jun on the ground no matter what.
The Qin army's arrows can cover all Cao's troops well.
In the terrified eyes of Cao Hong and Cao Chun, they saw the army of Qin Jun lying on the ground, shooting countless arrows with their feet, flying high in the sky, and then falling like raindrops, and all of them hit Cao Jun's phalanx middle.
Countless Cao soldiers were still holding their bows and arrows and preparing to shoot, but they were directly shot to death by the rain of arrows in a daze.
Cao Jun's neat phalanx directly became a target, standing still and not moving, and the target was so big that any shot could hit the target.
mnmm
For a while, countless soldiers of Cao Jun were killed by arrows one after another. Before they died, they were either unwilling or bewildered.
To the end of their lives, they couldn't figure out why Qin Jun's bows and arrows could shoot so far, twice as far as theirs.
"Scatter!!!" Cao Hong ordered loudly.
Cao Jun could not shoot Qin Jun, but Qin Jun could shoot Cao Jun.
Although I can't figure out why, it is undoubtedly the best choice to disperse immediately, which can minimize casualties.
If you scatter, you scatter, but should you continue to shoot.
Anyway, it's nothing to waste some arrows. Even if Cao Jun shoots again, a wave of arrows will still cause decent damage.
"Let it go!!!" Lu Bu ordered again.
Another wave of arrows rained down, although Cao Jun's damage decreased, but there was still damage, and Qin Jun was still unscathed.
"It's not going to work like this. They can shoot us, but we can't shoot them. Isn't this beating for nothing!" Cao Chun said anxiously.
Don't worry about spreading too much, there is always Cao Jun crossing the river by the river, Qin Jun can adjust the angle and shoot at Cao Jun crossing the river.
"We can't let the other party keep shooting like this, or they will all be shot to death in the end, we must stop them!" Cao Hong immediately said: "The army is charging, we have a large number of people, and we will fight with them hand to hand!
"Okay!" Cao Chun immediately agreed.
Cao Cao was not here. In order to ensure a safe evacuation, Cao Cao quietly left before the army left.
As the top general here, as long as Cao Hong and Cao Chun agree, they can dispatch and command the army.
Cao Jun, who had just dispersed, immediately drove Qin Jun to charge.
Lu Bu sat on the horseback with a sneer on his face, the other party was really looking for death on the pole. .
