Taking Deng Fan's rise and charge as a signal, the soldiers around him let out the crossbow arrows in scattered, causing screams.
The Jiaozhou Army also has the crossbows equipped with the Jingzhou Army, and there are several varieties that have been subdivided, either the crossbow arms are stronger or lighter and easier to carry.
All kinds of powerful crossbows, when the soldiers are trekking in the rainy season and the soldiers are less armed, are simply powerful tools to harvest lives. Wherever the crossbow arrows go, the soldiers of Cao's army fell to the ground like harvested wheatgrass.
Before their screams subsided, dozens of enemies holding short-swords rushed over, trampling over the pools of blood and dead bodies all over the ground, tearing their already chaotic formation into pieces.
Deng Fan's personal bravery was actually not outstanding. He relied on the elite guards around him to rush forward and slammed hard. He slashed the opponent in front of him with a knife, then held the knife in his backhand, and stabbed it in through the gap in the armor under the opponent's neck. Blood instantly splashed out and pounced on Deng Fan's face.
He slashed his sword in front of his chest, wiped his face, looked up and saw that there was only a continuous and empty thatch in front of him. It turned out that he had broken through the enemy formation and killed him clearly. Looking back, the remaining enemy troops had been intercepted in several sections, and most of them were defeated. Some of the extremely brave and good at fighting were fiercely besieged by their soldiers. In a moment, they were severely injured and swayed to the ground, with blood staining the ground red.
Only the largest enemy soldiers formed a tight round formation based on the terrain, holding the shield in their hands high, and were still resisting. Deng Fan's subordinates rushed twice, but they were all forced to retreat like trapped beasts.
Deng Fan cursed and shouted: "Let the spearman go! Where is the spearman?"
The two armies fought on the winding roads under the dam. After the bows and arrows were covered, they were close forces, so most of the soldiers were carrying weapons such as swords and swords. However, dozens of people were still holding guns and spears to press the formation behind.
At this time, when he heard Deng Fan's call, the soldiers instantly scattered and gave up space. The spearmen lined up along the narrow road. Because the road was slippery, several people fell down halfway and rolled over many of their companions like gourds. However, with the strict training of every day, the steel hedgehog still crashed into the circle.
The violent impact sound, the friction of the tip of the spear passing through the surface of the shield, the muffled sound of the sharp blade piercing into the human body and the screams of the human beings almost burst out at the same time. This simple shield array collapsed instantly under the huge impact force. When the soldiers of the Jiaozhou army held a crossbow and continued to shoot against the side of the spear formation, the Cao army was immediately killed and injured.
Deng Fan quickly turned back, holding a crossbow arrow in his hand. He tried hard to identify the corpse in a choking and bloody smell.
But at this time, Jiang Li and his subordinates arrived from the Minwei camp.
Deng Fan kept his face unchanged and turned the crossbow arrow back to the skin behind him, and shouted: "Find the body of the enemy general as soon as possible, take off his head! Pick a few more capable soldiers and quickly change into the enemy's military uniform!"
At the camp gate on the Liuyan, Deputy General Cao's army paced back and forth anxiously. Just now, the main general led his troops to fight, and he could only hear waves of fighting. He saw the undulating thatch below, but could not tell the details of the battle.
However, it is true that his camp was attacked and the arrival of the bad ones was not good. At this time, the victory and defeat at the foot of the mountain were not clear, and the sky gradually became darker. He could only take the remaining soldiers to defend the camp and wait for the result.
At this time, fierce footsteps and panting came from the road outside. The deputy general jumped onto the earthen wall to explore, and saw dozens of embarrassed figures staggering and approaching quickly.
The guards raised their swords and guns vigilantly, and they heard everyone shouting: "It's us! Our own people! General Lao is dead! We are defeated! Keep the camp gate quickly, the enemy is about to come up!"
The deputy general knew as soon as he heard the accent, and he shouted that he was indeed a companion who had just left the camp.
More than a thousand soldiers of Liuyan were taken out just now, and half of them were used to guard the long dam, which showed that they were insufficient. At this time, it was always good to gather more people, so he quickly ordered the camp door and put the dozens in.
In a moment, seven or eight groups of people fled deep in the weeds, and all the deputy generals asked. All the defeated soldiers were told, the enemy was coming in a fierce manner, and the equipment was very powerful, which was very good.
As a result, the deputy general was in a very heavy mood. The soldiers around him looked at the blood-filled and all looked scared.
Not long after, the sound of footsteps vaguely came from the wind below the mountain road, gradually becoming clearer, and then trembled on the ground. The defenders saw a group of enemy soldiers passing through the deep grass, crossing the undulating hills, and stepping through the mud. Their footsteps became louder and louder, like thunder.
Just in front of the enemy, the last batch of defeated soldiers rushed over. The deputy general didn't care about asking any more questions, and asked them to rest behind the camp, staring at the enemy's movements with all his attention.
Deng Fan strode forward until he approached the distance that Cao's army could reach, and he paused slightly.
He asked in a low voice: "Old Jiang, are you okay?"
Jiang Li was beside Deng Fan and slapped his chest: "A hundred powerful crossbows, hundreds of powerful bows accompany him, and the soldiers will be willing to be one hundred hearts. Whoever dares to move around in the camp will die first."
Deng Fan nodded and continued to move forward.
Perhaps the crossbowmen led by Jiang Li formed a huge deterrence, and the Cao army in the camp was obviously restless, but no one fired arrows.
It was not until the people inside and outside the camp could see each other clearly that Deng Fan stopped and cleaned up the subordinates behind him. The light soldiers behind him quickly raised a tall pole made of two long spears, with a pair of armor hanging on it.
The afterglow of the sunset shone, allowing the Cao army soldiers in the camp to see clearly that it was exactly what the general of our side was doing in daily life.
At this time, a loud soldier shouted loudly: "Listen to the bandits in the camp, Jiaozhou general Ren Hui led tens of thousands of troops to this point. Your chief general is dead, and the hundreds of people who fought with him are defeated! You abandon your weapons and surrender, so you can avoid death. If you want to fight again, then continue to fight. Don't blame us for being ruthless if you die!"
As he said that, several people helped out for a few more steps and threw a few round things into the camp.
The thing flew over the wooden fence on the earthen wall and rolled on the wet ground a few times. The soldiers had already picked it up and saw that they were all the generals who had just started fighting.
Seeing this, the defenders in the camp felt cold. Everyone was frightened. Suddenly, there was a chaos in the back camp. It seemed that many people were slashing and killing with knives, and some people shouted: "The Jiaozhou Army has entered the camp! Those who kneel down and surrender will not be killed!"
When the rear camp was in chaos, it was easy to be attacked from front and back, and if it was trapped at the top of the dam, this situation suddenly caused severe chaos, and the chaos instantly spread to the entire camp. There were people who screamed around, some people who ran away, and some people who were at a loss.
The deputy general drew his sword in his hand and shouted angrily: "Don't panic! That must be the spy who mingled into the camp with the defeated soldiers! There were not many people!"
If there were no Jiaozhou troops outside the camp, he might not be able to capture spies and stabilize the morale of the army. But at this time, the Jiaozhou troops outside the camp were about to start and began to release arrows into the camp.
The deputy general shouted twice, and the fewer people around him were following his command, and even his own personal guards began to escape. He was angry and even ashamed. He finally roared and jumped out of the earthen wall with a sword high.
