    The sound of war drums kept coming from every corner of the array, one after another.  War flags of various colors were flying in the air, so colorful that it was dazzling.  The messengers were like industrious bees, busy in and out of the formations set up by the army.

    Where the formation opened and closed, densely packed cavalry poured out like a tide.

    The roar became clearer and louder, spreading across the plains and resounding in the sky!

    "Two cavalrymen of ten thousand people charge towards each other, which is undoubtedly the most magnificent scene in the cold weapon era.

    The thunderous sound of horse hooves has completely overwhelmed the sound of drums and trumpets and the sound of fighting.  The violent vibration caused the city to tremble, and the loose soil soaked in blood fell in pieces. Some soldiers even lost their footing and fell directly from the top of the city!

    Cao Cao held his breath, and all the civil and military personnel in Cao's camp looked solemn.

    The Qingzhou cavalry that were charging over formed a neat queue. Although they were accelerating slowly, they gave people a strange feeling of being unhurried and not slow.  From a distance, it looked like a turbulent wave rushing towards you. During the ups and downs, it made a deafening roar. Its majestic momentum and mighty power seemed to explode completely with this earth-shattering blow.

    "It's so easy to get some free time, and you can build a strong army" Cao Cao muttered with a pale face.

    He feels that fate is really unfair.

    "I was born in a high-ranking family, with few talents, and my reputation spread throughout the Central Plains. Even Xu Zijiang, a man with such high vision, praised him as: a capable minister in governing the world and a hero in troubled times.

    I am not like the Yuan brothers who are overly dandy, intolerant, and short-sighted; nor am I like Gongsun Zan and Lu Bu who are overly proud, unwilling to accept advice, and unable to employ people; my family background is thousands of times better than that of Liu Bei and Tao Qian.  Times, ten thousand times.  If you have enough time to plan and deploy, you can open up a new world and create an invincible and powerful army!

    Unfortunately, what I lack most is time.

    The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, mainly composed of Yongliang border troops, is very strong. These tough warriors already possess superb riding skills and various combat skills. With the sophisticated equipment made with heavy investment, they are even more powerful.  It is no exaggeration to say that these elite soldiers, taken alone, are not inferior to any army including the Qingzhou Army.

    However, even such a strong army suffered a complete defeat in the cavalry battle at the beginning of the war and was no match for the enemy.

    In this regard, the staff were puzzled and the generals were ashamed, but Cao Cao had no such emotions because he knew very well where the gap was.

    time!  There was so little time that I had no time to complete the training.  There are no fundamental changes between the current Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and the Xiliang Army half a year ago. Their equipment has become stronger and they fly different flags, but at their core they are still an army that only values ??individual bravery and does not pay attention to tactical coordination.  This is the reason why the cavalry battle in the early stage was defeated.

    The upcoming cavalry battle may be a little different.  Because it is a head-on confrontation, there is no head-on confrontation. Courage and combat power are the foundation, and tactical cooperation should take a secondary position According to common sense, this is correct.

    But Cao Cao knows very well that the opponent he is facing now, this opponent who has always been suppressing him, has always been unconventional. If he speculates based on common sense, he will easily be caught off guard.

    However, he can't think of any other way now. The tactics of infantry against cavalry are relatively rigid, and it is difficult to make further adjustments once the layout is established.  The Qingzhou Army arrived too quickly and attacked too fiercely. Cao's army was unable to completely cover the battlefield and restrict the opponent's maneuverability.  Once Wang Yu plays some new tricks, the Yanxing Formation with all his troops on the front is likely to be defeated.

    Therefore, using cavalry to restrain cavalry is the only way. Even if you cannot defeat the enemy head-on, you must at least limit the enemy's maneuvering space. This is the only way to win.

    Cao Cao's reaction could not be said to be unpleasant, and his new tactics could not be said to be inaccurate. However, looking at the Qingzhou cavalry formation that was so busy, he was still very uneasy, always feeling that something was going to happen soon.

    "Where is Zilong" The two armies were five hundred steps apart, and Wang Yu began to order generals.

    "Zhao Yun is here!"

    "Follow me!" Zhang Chang raised his head and pointed his five-foot-long sword at the tiger and leopard cavalry on the opposite side.

    "I dare you to die!" Zhao Yun responded loudly, urged his horse and danced his spear, and quickly rushed to the front of the team along the fleeting passage in the queue.  Under the noon light, his figure with silver armor, silver spear, white robe and white horse was like a bright lightning.

    Fang Yue and Qin Feng followed closely behind, each holding a large flag, which were the general flag of "Changshan Zhao" and the military flag with the word "wind".

    "The pioneer of Qingzhou is Zhao Yun!" The lookout on the enemy tower of Cao's army's central army hissed.Shouting exhaustedly, he conveyed the latest changes to the general.

    "Three hundred steps away"

    "The enemy troops began to separate from the front and rearthe light cavalry was accelerating! They were accelerating, the iron cavalry maintained their original speed, and the queues separated!" The voice suddenly became shrill and shrill, like the dying scream of a night owl, and everyone who listened was moved.

    "What are they going to do? Just use light cavalry to fight? Open the way for the iron cavalry so that they can charge into the battle at their strongest? No, this is impossible. Pure light cavalry can't defeat the tiger and leopard cavalry! There are two thousand tiger cavalry  How can a light cavalry defeat many heavy cavalry?" Cheng Yu was very panicked and spoke very fast and loudly. If you didn't listen carefully, it would be difficult to tell what he was saying.

    "It's a trick, right? There must be some trick, right?" Dong Zhao, who had officially left, or to be precise, betrayed Zhang Yang not long ago, also shouted in panic.  He was almost driven crazy by the regret in his heart. He originally wanted to find a big tree, but before he could enjoy the happiness of enjoying the shade under the big tree, the tree was already crumbling.

    ¡°If I had known this, it would have been better to have chosen the other side

    "There is only such a small distance, two hedges, and it is here in a blink of an eye. What other strategies can be used? It is useless to say anything else. It is serious to advance the infantry formation as soon as possible!"

    "No! If the infantry advances too fast, the formation will be destroyed, and those oars and carriages cannot move fast at all!"

    "Then what should we do"

    Most of Cao Ying¡¯s staff were experienced in the battlefield. Even if the opponent they faced was Wang Yu, they would not be so panicked originally.  But the psychological pressure brought by the previous bad news was too great. From being evenly matched, or even having some advantage, to being surrounded on all sides, the psychological impact of this contrast was very terrifying.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of mind, the Qingzhou Army's tactics seem a bit unreasonable, naturally the staff will inevitably be shaken.  Not only the staff watching the battle from behind, but also Cao Chun and Cao Xiu who were commanding on the battlefield were a little confused. On the contrary, in order to make meritorious deeds, Xia Houshang, who rushed to the front line, was not afraid. His blood-red eyes only saw the enemy on the opposite side.

    Xia Houshang stared at the enemy formation, estimating the distance, waiting for the moment of the final sprint!

    The fact that Dajun was in such a predicament was almost entirely due to his incompetence.  Without Wang Yu's main force, the siege of the other three groups of troops from the Qingzhou Army would only provide the lord with opportunities to defeat them.  As a result, because he failed to block Wang Yu, the entire main army was now in a dead end.

    At this moment, he finally understood the reason for the look of relief on Zang Ba's face when he asked for orders to cut off the rear.  The guilt of losing the battle is ultimately irreparable, and the humiliation can only be washed away with blood!

    "Liftshield"

    "Today's battle will last until the death!" He spurred the horse with all his strength, rushing faster and faster, leaving the other cavalry behind!  Under his encouragement, Cao Jun's cavalry in the front also entered the state. They took off their riding shields from under their saddles, put their round shields in front of their horses' necks, leaned their upper bodies forward, huddled up, and hid under the shields.  under protection.

    Riding and shooting is the special skill of the Gale Cavalry.  Now the distance is less than a hundred steps, and the cavalry on the opposite side has also begun to raise their bows. The most efficient tactic is to use short strikes and long strikes against the opponent, and directly hit them with their shields, and engage in close combat.

    However, at the moment when the tiger and leopard cavalry forward raised their shields, the gale force Qingqiu on the opposite side, who was drawing the bow, suddenly turned his war horse and ran diagonally towards both sides of the battlefield!

    "Accelerateaccelerate!" Xia Houshang was not surprised but overjoyed, roaring wildly.

    As we all know, the predecessor of the Storm Cavalry was the White Horse Yi Cong. Except for the White Horse, the former perfectly inherited everything of the latter. The advantages are as good as the shortcomings.  The shortcoming of Baima Yicong is that he has poor attack ability. When going into battle, he always likes to rely on mounted fire to harass and kill the enemy on both wings, and finally joins the main force to consolidate the victory.

    The Gale Cavalry has achieved outstanding results in the past two years, but most of them were achieved against weaker opponents or by relying on running attacks, and they rarely fought head-on battles.  Now, they are clearly trying to do it again.

    Let them spread out their formation and become a flying geese formation, with light cavalry killing on both wings and iron cavalry advancing in the center.  Such tactics are indeed very threatening, but unfortunately, in order to hide this intention, they changed the formation too late and could not fully expand the formation in time.  Take advantage of this opportunity to launch a fierce attack and you will have a chance to defeat the enemy!

    Seeing such changes and receiving confirmation from the lookout, Cao Cao also breathed a sigh of relief.

    If it were just such a change, then there really would be nothing to fear. Even with the cover of cavalry and archery, it would be impossible for the three thousand cavalry to swallow up all the nearly ten thousand tiger and leopard cavalry. Even if they could do it, they would not be able to do so in the presence of the infantry.  The formation advances to the battle group to do it.

    "If we win this battle, maybe" Unconsciously, Cao Cao actually said what was in his heart. It can be seen that his current attitudeHow emotional.

    "If we win this battle" Xia Houshang was also murmuring. It might not only be his own blood that can wash away the shame.

    However, at this moment, a dazzling white light suddenly flashed in front of Xia Houshang's eyes!  It was as if the sun in the sky suddenly fell, and the bright light pierced me like a sharp sword. My eyes were sore and achy, and I couldn't see anything.

    "This what kind of magic is this?" Xia Houshang roared angrily, still full of resentment at the moment of his death.  He was mentally prepared to die at the hands of the enemy, but he didn't expect that he would die in such a painful way that he couldn't even see clearly what his murderer looked like.  (To be continued.
