    Cao Ren effortlessly broke through the spear array on the first level and rushed directly to the rear.

    He was overjoyed. He didn't expect to be so relaxed. He couldn't help but scornfully said: "Zhang He's arrogance is nothing more than this!"

    But Cao Ren found that after being blocked by the spear formation, the impact of the cavalry had weakened.

    But he was not worried, because the impression he had from the first contact had already made him not take it to heart.

    At this moment, looking at the army in front, Cao Ren thought to himself that as long as he broke through the obstruction of these people, he would be able to break through the siege in one fell swoop.

    So he mobilized his war horse again and rushed forward without hesitation.

    At this moment, the defenders in the rear immediately put on bright and sharp bayonets and faced Cao Ren's cavalry.

    Under the sunlight, the bayonet actually reflected the cold killing intent.

    At first, Cao Ren didn't take it seriously, but the horse suddenly slowed down.

    No matter how hard Cao Ren drove it, not only did it not speed up, but it became slower and slower, and even started to commotion.

    The war horse under Cao Ren has also been with him in battles for many years and has long been psychic.

    I have never encountered such a situation in normal times, but today it is so abnormal.

    But seeing that the way is right in front of you, how can you hesitate.

    Therefore, Cao Ren pulled the reins hard, waved his whip, and forced the horse to rush forward.

    As he was about to get closer, the war horse suddenly neighed, turned sharply at the last moment, avoided the bayonet directly in front, and ran to the side.

    Not only Cao Ren¡¯s horses, but other Qiang and Hu cavalry also encountered the same situation.

    Only a few war horses rushed in, but they immediately hit the bayonets.

    With sharp bayonets piercing his chest, all the men and horses fell to the ground and could no longer rush out of the valley.

    And this place is a narrow valley, with steep and towering cliffs on both sides, and there is no way to escape.

    Therefore, the cavalry who ran to the side could only return again under the driving of their master.

    But as a result, the cavalry that was originally rushing forward like a torrent were immediately confused, and they were attacking in any direction.

    Some even crashed into each other in a panic, losing the momentum they had at the beginning.

    At this time, Zhang He, who had been paying attention to the situation in the formation, immediately issued an order.

    The surrounding soldiers, both spearmen and bayonet soldiers, began to slowly move into the encirclement and attack Cao Ren's cavalry in the middle.

    Those at the back simply took out their bows and arrows and started shooting again.

    It was only at this moment that Cao Ren finally understood the essence of the opponent's formation.

    As Cao Ren, who was familiar with various formations and had once led the Eight Gate Golden Lock Formation to defeat the enemy, he could not help but admire the person who designed this formation at this moment.

    This hollow square array looks simple, but it is actually very mysterious.

    It not only takes advantage of the terrain and battlefield situation, but also takes the characteristics of the war horse into consideration.

    It can be said that all factors have been taken into account before it can achieve miraculous effects.

    Cao Ren's cavalry has lost its original momentum and is still maintaining order in the formation.

    But Zhang He had already begun to shrink his formation and came resolutely from all directions.

    When some Qiang and Hu cavalry saw this, they quickly wanted to break out.

    However, if the cavalry cannot form a large scale and only fights alone, facing the pikemen will be like facing death.

    The Qiang cavalry who wanted to break out were easily solved by the pikemen.

    The other Qiang and Hu were so frightened that they no longer dared to try the law.

    However, the ever-shrinking encirclement is still compressing their living space, and they are about to be completely surrounded.

    Seeing the situation around him, Cao Ren quickly regained his senses and commanded the army to gather together.

    Then Cao Ren gave an order: "The generals will fight on foot instead, kill horses to form formations, and defend against the enemy!"

    Qiang and Hu have been accustomed to fighting immediately since they were young, but at this moment, in order to survive, they immediately dismounted without hesitation.

    Then, after forming a circle around the outside, the war horses were ruthlessly assassinated.

    Although the fallen horse was distressing, it finally formed an isolation zone between the enemy and ourselves, blocking the enemy troops from outside.

    If the enemy wants to attack again, he can only turn over and pass by the horse.

    When the time comes, the formation will naturally be chaotic, and Cao Ren can seize the opportunity to counterattack, or even break out of the encirclement.

    And if the enemy attacks with long-range bows and arrows, they can also hide on the horsebackOn the other side, avoid being shot by the enemy from a distance.

    This temporary decision immediately stabilized the situation, and the casualties on Cao Ren's side were finally not as huge as they were at the beginning.

    After Zhang He saw the opponent's response, he couldn't help but sigh that Cao Ren was flexible and adaptable. He was worthy of being one of the few famous generals under Cao Cao.

    Seeing that the opponent was holding on to the temporary position, it was difficult to attack for a while, and the casualties of his men began to increase.

    Zhang He made a prompt decision and ordered his men to stop attacking and only to be vigilant around them.

    Because Zhang He understood that Cao Ren's defense at this moment could only last for a while, but it could not last long.

    Rather than attacking fiercely at this moment and only increasing casualties, it is better to besiege and not attack for the time being to wear down the opponent's energy.

    Anyway, surrounded by his own army, the other party can't escape.

    In fact, Cao Ren also knew in his heart that his current response could only temporarily stop the enemy.

    Without foreign aid, it is impossible to last.

    However, how could the defenders of Wangyuan think of the battle happening here?

    They thought that if Cao Ren led his cavalry to attack, they would be invincible. Who would have thought that they would encounter Zhang He's army.

    Therefore, even if Yao Qiong, the guard of Wangyuan, discovers that something is wrong and sends troops to check, I am afraid it will not be until tomorrow.

    But now Cao Ren can only hope for reinforcements from the other side, and has no other choice.

    After Zhang Xiong paused the fighting here, he also led his troops to slowly catch up, increasing the number of troops surrounding Cao Ren.

    At this moment, Cao Ren had less than three thousand soldiers and horses left in the central encirclement.

    Zhang He took the initiative to come forward and shouted: "General Cao Ren, you are also a famous general of the generation.

    Even His Majesty once praised you as a wise man.  At this moment, we are surrounded by our army and have no way to escape.

    Rather than letting your men die with you, why not switch sides and surrender?

    With your strength, you will definitely be able to make contributions to your majesty in the future and find generals and titles.

    It is better than hiding under Cao Cao and being in panic all day long.  "

    Zhang He had good intentions, but it was impossible to impress Cao Ren.

    After all, Cao Ren and Cao Cao are uncles and brothers. They have a very close relationship, and they are loved and reused by Cao Cao.

    Therefore, Cao Ren rejected the other party with great disdain and cursed Zhang He.

    Seeing that Zhang He failed to persuade him to surrender, he could only return angrily. At the same time, he ordered his men to step up their defenses to prevent the other party from taking the opportunity to break out.

    After such a long battle, it was already evening, and even Zhang He couldn't help but feel hungry.

    Zhang He rolled his eyes and immediately paid attention.

    He immediately ordered his soldiers and horses to start cooking on the outside of the encirclement. After a while, the aroma filled the valley.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
