Chapter 377. Threatening Flower Viewing Card (2)
“Was that vanguard really that strong?”
Not only Cao Cao, but also various scribes and generals, and even most of the soldiers who were watching the vanguard battle, had their mouths wide open and their eyes blinking in surprise.
Xiahoudon was, both in name and reality, the greatest leader and general of the camp.
However, he was returning with Akjin in a face full of defeat.
The vanguard came out as the enemy’s vanguard, and morale was already low, but since Yue Jin ran and managed to save Xiahoudon, the low morale had to go further.
“I think we should lead the enemy to the place where the archers are stationed by walking the main cavalry battle.”
Guo Jia hurriedly spoke out to refresh the atmosphere.
“These are the guys who won the vanguard battle and didn’t attack. Can you lure a trap with cavalry?”
“It’s good if you can attract it, and there’s nothing to lose if you don’t.”
“You have nothing to lose?”
“Send out your cavalry armed with your bows and shoot only within range, and if the enemy cavalry pursues you, just retreat. If the enemy is chasing us, we can lure them into a trap, and if we stay still, we will become food for arrows, so we have nothing to lose.”
“Even if the enemy doesn’t get caught, it can damage the troops.”
“yes.”
Cao Cao listened to Guo Jia’s words and looked up at the fireman’s camp.
All three camps were advancing slowly, with shield soldiers at the fore.
“Surely, you knew how scary our arrows were and got scared. General Zhang Liao.”
“Your master.”
“Lead 5,000 cavalrymen with bows and go out to reduce the enemy soldiers.”
“I take orders.”
“If the enemy cavalrymen respond, lure them into a trap.”
“I am well informed.”
After a while, Zhang Liao led 5,000 cavalry and rushed toward the Huabu camp.
‘Heh, what a piece of cake this is!’
Zhang Liao’s expression, leading 5,000 cavalry, was comfortable without any worries.
It was a strategy that did not actually collide with the enemy and the spear, as all you had to do was repeatedly hit and run with an arrow with a good range.
“Get ready!”
As the distance drew closer, he slowed down the galloping horse and took out an arrow and put it on the string.
I could see the enemy archers hiding behind the shield soldiers in the distance aiming their bows at this side, but there was no chance that this side would be hit because the range was superior. And even if there were people shooting angular bows or iron bows in that group, there wouldn’t be many of them, so it was possible to defend them enough.
“launch!”
Zhang Liao shot his bow at the enemy archers rather than at the enemy generals.
Pipipipiping…..
In an instant, 5,000 arrows flew toward the enemy camp in a parabolic arc, staining the sky in dots.
Pipipipipiping…
Of course, I could see them hurriedly firing arrows even in the enemy camp, but it was just laughable.
“uh?”
however.
Jang-ryo’s eyes widened as he took an arrow out of the barrel and hung it on the bowstring to fire the second arrow.
The arrows, which were supposed to fly and fall to the ground midway through, were falling on the heads of himself and his men for some reason.
“Don’t stop!”
Percurfer Puck …. Kahiah …. Hiii Ying …..
I hurriedly squeezed the window and hit the arrows, but with the sound of hail pouring, the screams and horses of the men rang out everywhere. .
‘How did this happen? Could it be that many enemies have the same bokbow as we do?’
It was assumed that the enemy would have noticed the existence of the Bokgung because Cao Hong and Cao In took out a cavalry with a Bokgung and were wiped out.
But even so, the enemies couldn’t have made so many identical bows.
No matter how many field chiefs there are in the fireman’s camp, it is impossible to make tens of thousands of palace palaces in just a few days.
“Shoot! Go ahead, shoot the arrow!”
Zhang Liao put the spear on the horse’s back, hurriedly hooked the arrow to the string, and fired at the enemy camp. A second arrow from the enemy camp flew through the air like rain, but fortunately this time it took a while to shoot the arrow and block it again.
Purfers Puck
….
“Damn it! The enemy’s preparations are too thorough! It’s clear that this one is armed with a bow comparable to ours. Retreat Retreat!”
Zhang Liao turned around and walked away from the enemy before the third arrow flew.
The cavalrymen hurriedly turned their heads after Zhang Liao, but less than half of them followed.
Percurfer Puck …. Kahiah …..
I heard the screams of the soldiers and the crying of horses in the third arrow that was poured into the rear.
“To suffer such a dog death… What the hell were our guards doing!”
If I had known they had the same bow, I wouldn’t have used such a stupid strategy.
Zhang Lio gnashed his teeth to the extent that they made a clicking sound.
I don’t know if I’ve engaged with the enemy properly and been reported, but isn’t this the same as running into the enemy’s arrow range and killing half a soldier’s life?
Of course, the arrows they shot would have hit the enemy camp to some extent, but the problem was that the enemies were protected from the shield soldiers, so there wouldn’t have been a big hit.
Zhang Liao was completely out of the range of the arrow and turned his head to look at the enemy camp.
Again, the cavalry did not come out of the enemy soldiers.
Slow steps, still with the shield soldiers at the fore.
‘Damn, at this rate, I’ll have no choice but to respond with the same tactics as them.’
The speed of the enemy’s advance was as slow as that of a turtle, but while returning to the main base, Zhang Liao’s chest felt stuffy as if a stone was stuck in the middle of his esophagus.
* * *
“Maybe Jojo’s heart sank.”
At Eulji’s words, the painter’s head nodded.
“This is all thanks to Danju.”
After learning about the existence of the palace, he hurriedly ordered the field commander to make a palace, but in reality, the number did not fill 20% of the archers. So, I was very worried, but Eulji had obtained some iron bows and horn bows through the group.
Iron bows and horn bows are expensive, but they cannot be obtained in large quantities. It was small, but thanks to luck, about 30 percent of the archers were able to arm themselves.
“It was not because of my virtue, but because the money the lord gave me in the past increased, and it had an effect at the right time.”
“It’s not that many feudal lords can’t get supplies because they don’t have money. Danju, who has been procuring necessary supplies at this time of need, is the complete protagonist of this victory.”
The painter raised Eulji up and turned his head to look at Jojo’s camp.
Before anyone knew it, Jinyoung and Jinyoung were so close that they couldn’t even run half an angle.
If you go a little further, it will be the range of the arrow.
“Wait a minute, stop. All I have to do is pass my words on to your superiors. Let go of this!”
Then suddenly there was a commotion, and I saw some soldiers holding someone down near the headquarters.
“Sama’s!”
The painter immediately recognized that the man being subdued by the soldiers was Samaui.
“Isn’t it strange that Cao Cao is not a stupid idiot, and the difference in troops is twice as large, but he abandoned his castle and waited for me? Let go of this, you empty-headed bastards!”
When the painter heard Sima Yi shouting loudly, goosebumps ran through his whole body.
For a brief moment, the situation so far flashed through my head.
He shattered the enemy’s strategy, won the vanguard battle, and even destroyed the cavalry armed with the bow.
It’s such a smooth start.
In fact, he may have been wet with inertia, thinking that this situation was natural because he had been winning all the time.
The opponent is Jojo…
The fireman recalled that fact.
As Sima Yi said, the opponent is Cao Cao. The best hero of the era! He is not the kind of person who will let the scam flow as it is even when he sees the fraud hitting the bottom.
But why are you waiting so patiently?
‘Alas! You’ve dug a big trap and are waiting!’
“The Duke of Zhou must stop marching for a while…”
Zhuge Liang, hearing Sima Yi’s words, seemed to have similar thoughts to Hwabu, and when he hurriedly presented his opinion, a scream suddenly erupted with an explosion of ‘Kwaang’.
The fireman immediately turned his head to where the explosion sounded.
In an age when gunpowder had not yet been invented, such an explosion was not something that could easily be heard. If so, what is this sound…
“Fire from Bar Rock!”
The fireman’s eyes widened spontaneously.
There were several large rocks in the middle of the plain, and the rocks were breaking at once and pouring out oil.
Aaaaagh!
Amidst the screams of the burnt soldiers, the cavalry began to rapidly charge from Cao Cao’s camp.
The soldiers of the Hwabu camp were in a state of confusion at the sudden change, but as the enemies rushed in, they could not deal with the situation and had no choice but to face the enemy.
In an instant, soldiers and soldiers became entangled.
“Were you aiming for something like this?”
No one expected that the oil barrels would be camouflaged and hidden with rocks.
An unexpected tactic that was not found anywhere in history in the past memory.
The number of soldiers burned to death was only a few hundred, a small number compared to the large army of 2 million, but the aftermath of the chaos was usually not great.
‘Jojo! I expected it to be a difficult fight… but was he hiding this number after all?’
Even so, there is a problem with defeating the troops. If you stop here, you can suffer more damage because the formation is mixed. Once it started, there was no other way but to push on.
Suddenly, I remembered the warning Sima Yi had given me a while ago.
The painter turned his head and looked at Samaui, who was being subdued by the soldiers.
The soldiers who subdued him were no longer harming him, as if they were surprised by the unexpected situation.
“Intestinal stomach.”
“Your master.”
“Bring the author.”
“I take orders.”
After a while, Zhang Gui grabbed Sima Yi by the back and dragged him.
“Did you mean that fiery rock?”
“Fire Rock was something I didn’t know about. However, knowing Jojo’s tendencies, I thought it would be natural to be more vigilant the more advantageous he was.”
“I didn’t know about fire rocks, but I guess you predicted that there was something.”
The painter looked at Sima Yi with new eyes.
Sima Yi first noticed the danger that even Zhuge Liang did not notice, and tried to inform it while leaving the military camp.
‘Am I being too wary of interest?’
Knowing history is a good thing, but it can be poisonous or a reason for worrying like now.
“If I had heeded your warning a little sooner, I might not have fallen into Jojo’s trap.”
“I’m not sure, but couldn’t you have been a little more careful?”
“good night. The situation has already happened, so what should we do from now on?”
“The fight has already begun, so even if we lose, we must push on until the enemy retreats.”
“That is something anyone can think of. What I am asking now is whether or not Jojo has prepared other traps.”
“I’m not a high official, so I don’t know the details of the strategy.”
Sima Yi took a step back, and the fireman’s face frowned.
Even at this moment, countless people were screaming and dying. But Sima Yi was trying to play a tug-of-war with him.
“Then you must be of little use to me.”
