The crimson attack flew towards him like a blazing flame.
Cao Chun glanced back, and his vision was filled with bloody bright red for an instant.
Fiery red torches, blood flying all over the sky, mud soaked in blood everywhere, and the female general chasing after her like flowing fire.
For a moment, Cao Chun even had the illusion of being dizzy.
He forced himself to calm down and originally wanted to forcefully return to his horse to fight, but then he remembered what Zhang Liao had said.
The person chasing him behind him was none other than Lu Bu's daughter. The thief's martial arts skills were not even a match for Zhang Liao, let alone him.
The fighting spirit that Cao Chun had just summoned immediately withered away again.
In the blink of an eye, when he was wandering between fighting and not fighting, Lu Lingqi was chasing behind her like the wind with her superb equestrian skills.
At this time, Cao Chun had no way out and had no choice but to fight.
"You are the remnant of a family slave with three surnames, I will send you to see that thief Lu Bu today——"
Amidst the loud shouts, Cao Chun suddenly turned his head, and the spear in his hand was shot out like a flash of lightning.
Lu Lingqi was already full of revenge, but now that she heard Cao Chun insult her father, she became even more furious.
The billowing anger that erupted like a volcano ran through his arms, and the square-shaped painted halberd roared out, attacking Cao Chun with the potential to destroy everything.
The halberd technique of the Lu family is full of elegance and power in this one move.
Cao Chun was shocked and stunned. How could he have thought that the martial arts of this remnant of Lu Bu could be so strong? Whether it was speed or moves, they were so strong that he could not imagine.
For a moment, he felt guilty.
But, it's too late.
Before the spiraling halberd arrived, a strange force like isinglass struck from all directions, suppressing him until he had no way to escape.
In his eyes, that sharp edge with cold light struck him in an instant like the fangs of the god of death.
Poof~~
There was a muffled sound of bone and flesh being torn apart, and the sharp edge of the spear pierced Cao Chun's forehead.
Lu Lingqi, who had passed by the wrong horse, took advantage of the situation and sheathed her halberd again, and a large amount of blood and brain matter spurted out from the blood hole.
Cao Chun, who looked frightened, swayed a few times with his twitching body, then fell down under the horse with a thud.
Lu Lingqi felt so happy after killing a general of the Cao family clan with her own hands. The anger accumulated in her heart was finally able to be vented a little.
She was far from satisfied after killing the enemy with one move. She raised her halberd again and continued to chase the fleeing enemy.
…
When Lu Lingqi killed more than a thousand tigers and leopards, Yan Liang had already galloped towards the rear camp.
In fact, Yan Liang did not intend to kill Zhang Liao. In Yan Liang's view, although Zhang Liao's martial arts was not the best in the world, his ability to command troops was the best among the five good sons in Cao Ying.
Zhang Liao in history even achieved a brilliant record of dominating Xiaoyaojin, defeating Sun Quan's 100,000 troops with 800 cavalry.
Now a good general, how could Yan Liang bear to kill him like this?
Therefore, Yan Liangcai only gave Lu Lingqi five thousand cavalry.
Yan Liang believed that these five thousand soldiers and horses were enough to defeat Zhang Liao, but not enough to kill Zhang Liao.
What Yan Liang has to do now is to deal with the formidable enemy in front of him first, and then turn around and find a way to subdue Zhang Liao, a tiger general.
Along the front line of the camp, the shouts of killing shook the heaven and the earth. In the darkness, countless Cao troops were already attacking the camp.
Yan Liang raised his eyes and looked up, but saw a faint fire flickering in the darkness in the distance. That was where Cao Jun's central army was.
At this time, Cao Ren, illuminated by the firelight, was looking majestic and looking deeply at Yan Liang.
This is the second time he has fought against Yan Liang.
Cao Ren's thoughts went back to a few years ago, when Yan Liang had just escaped from Yuan Shao and sneaked into Runan County with less than two thousand soldiers and horses.
At that time, Cao Ren, leading thousands of elites, thought that he could annihilate this traitorous general of the Yuan family in one battle, but he never expected that he would lose extremely ugly.
Cao Ren boasted that he had never been defeated in his life, and that battle was the only humiliation in his life.
Cao Ren will never forget this shame.
Looking at the enemy camp from afar, seeing his own soldiers rushing toward the enemy camp like a torrent of water, a sneer appeared on Cao Ren's proud face.
"Yan Liang, I, Cao Ren, will repay you double the shame of that battle today!"
Cao Ren became even more angry, raised his whip and shouted: "Pass this order to Xu Gongming's troops to launch an attack from the left wing immediately. I will attack in an all-out manner and destroy the enemy camp in one fell swoop——"
The order was given and the scouts flew away.
Not long after, shouts of killing suddenly arose from the left wing. Under the light of the fire, countless soldiers surged toward the enemy camp like water.
Half of Cao Ren's 15,000 infantry and cavalry troops were here, and all of them were thrown into the battlefield by Cao Ren.
According to Cao Ren's assumptions, Yan Liang had already fallen into the trap at this time. There were no more than three thousand soldiers and horses in the enemy camp here, and Zhang Liao and Cao Chun's Li Cheng army should also have launched an attack from the inner perimeter.
Cao Ren believed that with his overwhelming advantage in military strength and the power of internal and external attacks, he could defeat the enemy camp guarded by only 3,000 people in a matter of seconds.
Seeing several groups of soldiers and horses rushing out, the sneer on Cao Ren's face became even stronger.
However, he never expected that on the other side of the night, Yan Liang was watching his swarming army with the same sneer.
The fierce enemy broke through the darkness, and under the dim light of the fire, he could already see the enemy's figure clearly.
Along the long battle line in the camp, more than ten thousand Cao's troops were swarming like ants.
In the blink of an eye, Cao's troops of all kinds had rushed to within fifty.
The time has come, when will it be more?
Yan Liang's sword eyebrows narrowed and he shouted sternly: "Liannushou, shoot—"
Amidst the sound of war drums, the scouts rushed away, shouting and passing down Yan Liang's orders layer by layer.
On the front line of the camp fence, five hundred repeating crossbowmen who had already taken their positions raised their Yuanrong repeating crossbows. At the moment when the sound of the war drums reached its peak, they all fired their weapons.
Five thousand iron arrows, carrying the buzzing sound of a thousand birds flapping their wings, tore through the darkness of the night, and fell like a dragnet towards the rushing enemy.
Five thousand arrows were shot out at the same time within a range of several hundred feet. This was such a terrifying density.
In an instant, screams could be heard one after another, and Cao Jun in the front row was like a fragile straw, and the vast raindrop-like arrow net swept them to the ground in pieces.
The swordsmen and shieldmen who rushed at the front were mentally prepared to face the crossbow attack from the enemy camp, but they never expected that the enemy's arrows would be so dense.
Under this unexpected blow, seven to eight hundred people fell in the rain of arrows in an instant. Although Cao Jun who followed behind was spared death, he was shocked by the tragic situation of his companions in front and the powerful arrow blow of the enemy.
Most of my fighting spirit was destroyed in the blink of an eye.
More than 10,000 Cao troops were crowded dozens of steps in front of the enemy camp, making it difficult to advance any further.
Just when the enemy was delayed, the serial crossbowman had installed the second crossbow bolt. With the thundering drums, five thousand sharp arrows struck again.
Under the rain of arrows, another wave of Cao's soldiers fell to the ground screaming, and the blood quickly soaked the ground into mud.
At this moment, the sneer on Cao Ren's face, who was in the middle army, had disappeared and was replaced by unbelievable surprise.
"How could the enemy camp's arrows be so dense? Could it be that they were equipped with Yuanrong's serial crossbows? Could it be that Yan Liang was not prepared for it?"
Countless questions came to mind, and Cao Ren was shocked, but he didn't have much time to think. Every time he hesitated, hundreds of soldiers were lost to the enemy's sharp arrows.
Without thinking too much, Cao Ren shouted anxiously: "Send the order and the whole army will retreat immediately——"
The sound of the ringing of gold sounded, and the ten soldiers of Cao's army in front of them were in a panic, as if they were being pardoned, they held their shields high and retreated back.
The fierce momentum ended in such an embarrassing defeat.
Just when Cao Renshang was surprised and wondering what went wrong, a loud horn sounded in the enemy camp.
That's the signal to attack.
In the camp, Yan Liang already had a long sword in his hand, and his murderous aura was as fierce as a thunder.
In this battle tonight, how could he be satisfied with repelling Cao's army with fire? Yan Liang would make Cao Cao pay a heavy price for his invasion.
The price was a defeat that Cao Cao would never forget.
The fighting spirit surged, Yan Liang's eyes narrowed, he swiped his long sword forward, and shouted: "The whole army attacks to avenge the dead brothers, follow this general to kill all the enemy thieves -"
"kill--"
"kill--"
The roaring shouts of killing were like lava erupting from a volcano, and the raging flames shot straight through the sky.
The gate of the camp opened wide, and more than 10,000 Yan family soldiers rushed out. Huang Zhong, Wen Chou and other Yan camp generals came out, and the fierce people rushed out with the flames of revenge against the invaders.
Yan Liang was also full of fighting spirit. He stretched his arms long and sat on his horse, like a black lightning bolt. He led a thousand iron pagoda heavy cavalry and crashed straight into Cao Ren's army at the light of the fire.
At this time, the east is gradually whitening, the night colors are gradually fading, and the light has become brighter.
Seeing Yan Jun launch a counterattack, Cao Ren's face suddenly turned green. Only then did he realize that there were so many soldiers and horses hidden in the enemy camp. They had clearly seen through their plan and were waiting to rebel here.
one strike.
"Yan Liang, this thief, he actually saw through the prime minister's clever plan..." Cao Ren secretly gritted his teeth in hatred.
Under such circumstances, if he retreated, he would be crushed by the enemy, and his army of more than 10,000 men would be in danger of being annihilated.
At such a critical moment, the only option is to bite the bullet and fight.
Cao Ren didn't have a choice. He immediately waved his hand to his sword and shouted: "The whole army forms a formation to meet the enemy. Anyone who dares to take one step back will be killed without mercy -"
The order was given to quickly retreat layer by layer. More than ten thousand Cao's troops retreated and soon stopped.
Xu Huang, Yu Jin and other generals shouted at the soldiers to form formations, preparing to meet Yan Jun's infantry and cavalry who counterattacked.
However, the two armies were too close to each other. When Cao Jun's formation was just being formed, Yan Liang's army was already rushing in like water.
On the left wing, Huang Zhong led his elite Changsha soldiers, like tigers out of the cage, into Xu Huang's formation.
On the right wing, Wen Chou led a mixed regiment of Shenxing cavalry and infantry, and broke through the Yujin army in an unstoppable manner.
And in the middle of the road, Yan Liang led a thousand heavy cavalry of iron pagodas, in a wedge-shaped impact formation, like the giant steel beast that stretched across the wild, with the force of destroying everything, they crashed into Le Jin's middle road.
