Liu Qi's heart went back and forth a thousand times.

But in fact, Cao Cao was feeling uneasy at the moment.

Liu Qi's troops and horses, whether in terms of quantity, fighting prowess, or equipment, were firmly suppressing him, and they definitely suppressed more than one of them.

Now, for Cao Cao, the only way to win is to use a 50,000-strong army to contain Liu Qi's 80,000 elite troops here, and then let Lei Xu and Mei Gan contain Liu Qi from behind. Only in this way can he have a chance of victory. Otherwise, he will never win in a head-on battle. .

Thinking of this, Cao Cao, who was riding on his horse, shouted to the generals around him:

"Liu Qi's son is cunning and treacherous. He killed the emperor and plotted against my general. He has arranged such a large battle here today because he wants us to die without our bodies intact. We must not sit back and wait for death. As long as we kill Liu Qi, we will be destroyed." Only those who are traitors in the south can return home rich and honorable, and enjoy peace!

I ask you all to charge with me, defeat the Southern thieves, capture and kill the false emperor, and then the whole world will be our paradise!

There is still a chance of survival if you fight to the death, otherwise there is only death.

You guys, follow me and charge!"

After saying this, Cao Cao rode out first, holding his long sword high in his hand, and headed towards Liu Qi's army formation hundreds of steps away.

Of course, Cao Cao would not actually go to the front line to charge. His main purpose of doing so was just to show it to his soldiers.

Cao Cao took the lead bravely, and the soldiers directly under him were inspired by his bravery and immediately followed Cao Cao and rushed to the opposite camp.

Cao Cao's words and performance spread quickly throughout Cao Cao's army through word of mouth.

No matter who is the orthodox or the puppet dynasty, their lives are all their own. Cao Cao's words are reasonable and arouse the fighting spirit of 50,000 Cao Cao soldiers. These Cao soldiers were originally brave people, although their morale was low after several defeats. , but his ambition was soon aroused.

There is still a way to survive if you fight hard, but there is only a way to die if you retreat.

All of a sudden, 50,000 Cao Cao soldiers were on the move.

Fifty thousand Cao Cao's troops were like a black, sticky flood. Countless swords, spears, swords and halberds were wrapped in the flood, and they poured rapidly towards the Han army from the other end of the plain.

In an instant, dark clouds rolled and thunder burst out, as if the whole world was shaken by the sound.

Liu Qi looked at the black flood pouring in and sneered in his heart, was he going to fight to the death and sink the boat?

Liu Qi turned to look at Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, and Pang Tong behind him.

"Three dear friends, can we fight?"

The three of them surprisingly unanimously bowed their hands to Liu Qi and said: "You can fight!"

The momentum of the 50,000 Cao army charging in the distance seemed to have caused the wind to turn. From the side where Cao's army was charging, gusts of cold wind blew towards the Han army, blowing on the face like a steel knife. Just like scraping.

The strict formation of the Han army was somewhat scattered by the strong winds. Coupled with the overwhelming momentum of the 50,000 Cao soldiers who were getting closer and closer, the soldiers of the Han army were also a little frightened.

After all, the opponent's morale seems to be surprisingly high, and their fighting spirit is also surprisingly strong.

But they had no fear in their hearts, because in the chariot behind them, the emperor was watching them.

The soldiers, who were a little frightened, secretly turned their heads and looked behind them. When they saw that the flag representing the emperor's identity was still flying, they felt at ease.

With the invincible Emperor with them, they have nothing to fear!

Fifty thousand Cao's troops came at a very fast pace. After a while, they were only two hundred steps away from the Han army.

At this time, the messengers in the army kept reporting the distance between Cao's army layer by layer, so that Liu Qi in the rear could understand the situation and make better decisions.

"Two hundred steps!"

When the distance reached the imperial chariot, Sima Yi suggested that Liu Qi shoot an arrow to stop the opponent's momentum, but Liu Qi refused.

"One hundred and fifty steps!"

When the distance was reached again, Zhuge Liang, Sima Yi, Pang Tong, etc. all asked Liu Qi to order the arrows to be fired, but Liu Qi remained silent.

"One hundred steps!"

When the distance reached Liu Qi, in addition to Zhuge Liang and others, Liu Bei also asked Liu Qi to release the arrow quickly, but Liu Qi remained unmoved.

"Eighty steps!"

When this distance reached the high platform, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others also hurriedly requested orders.

It was only at this time that Liu Qi gave the order.

As soon as the emperor's order came out, the entire Han army finally began to take action.

Dozens of soldiers who had been waiting for Liu Qi's military order suddenly became excited when they saw the order flag waving.

The ordering soldiers also had order flags in their hands. After receiving Liu Qi's military order, they immediately rode out on horseback and passed orders back and forth in the military formation.

"Your Majesty has an order: Shoot the thieves!"

"Your Majesty has an order: Shoot the thieves!"

The high-pitched voice of the order spread throughout the three armies.

After General Liu Jun, who had been anxiously waiting for the military order, heard the order, he took out his weapons and issued orders to the soldiers led by his headquarters.

"Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Just now, the Han army was still waiting for danger, and the Han army, as calm as the sea, finally made waves.

Their offensive and momentum first rippled a little, and then came like a giant wave.

The Han army's formation retreated toward the two wings like ebbing water, revealing the three thousand crossbowmen hidden in the middle.

These three thousand crossbowmen have already been ready to go. The whole process is rigorous but not messy. Their movements are as regular as clockwork robots, making neat movements.

Countless sharp arrows shone coldly like death's scythes, waiting to harvest the enemy's lives.

Then, the general in front of the formation let out a heart-rending cry - "Shoot!"

The arrows that were ready to go were like flying fish that had been waiting for a long time to pounce out of the ocean, piercing the air and stabbing away.

In an instant, the sharp arrow shot out, covering the sky and the sun!

Sharp arrows pierced the air one after another and struck hard at Cao Jun.

Soon, the sound of sharp arrows breaking through Cao's army was heard.

This sound was like a symphony played by the God of Death himself. In just an instant, it took away the lives of hundreds of Cao Jun soldiers!

The faces of those Cao Jun soldiers who were shot still showed incomprehensible looks of fear, and at this time their bodies were being nailed to the ground by sharp arrows!

But I have to admit that Cao's army's combat power is indeed impressive.

Even in the face of such a stormy attack, Cao Jun's soldiers still rushed forward desperately without stopping.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cao Jun's generals urged the soldiers to move forward quickly. They knew very well that they were already within eighty steps of Liu Qi's army.

The opponent can only release this round of arrows at most. As long as they rush in front of them, these bows and arrows will be of little use.

At this time, the enemy's formation has not yet closed or reorganized. In terms of formation situation, this is really a God-given opportunity.

Liu Qi didn't know the thoughts of Cao Jun's generals, and he would not take the initiative to guess the other party's intentions. The key for him now was to sort out his thoughts and defeat the enemy step by step according to his own plan.

As the enemy got closer and closer, Liu Qi did not order the formation to be closed. He decisively ordered the crossbowmen to fire the second round.

Thousands of arrows fired!

After the first round of shooting, the Gongnu Battalion quickly carried out the second shooting in accordance with Liu Qi's military order.

As Cao's soldiers got closer and closer, the crossbowmen in the middle of Liu Qi's army could clearly see the ferocious expressions on the faces of those Cao soldiers who were charging at the front.

It was really scary! But they were unmoved.

"Fire the arrow!"

After the order to fire arrows was given this time, the Han army's crossbowmen shot more carefully and harder.

The arrows shot wildly towards the enemy's formation, killing hundreds of Cao's troops in an instant.

Being attacked by two consecutive arrow rains, the death squads at the front of Cao's army suffered a lot of casualties, and their morale had dropped a bit.

Under the command of Guan Yu, more than ten thousand halberd soldiers were positioned in front of the Han army's formation, forming a copper and iron wall based on flesh and blood and fortified by the mighty long soldiers and infantry.

Next, it was a head-to-head fight between the two sides, without the slightest trickery.

The murderous floods that filled the sky and covered the earth were getting closer and closer to the Han army's formation.

Fifty steps!

Thirty steps!

Ten steps!

Finally, not long after, Cao's army charged with anger, hatred, and belief, and slammed into the Han army.

This collision caused the shouts of killing from the two armies to suddenly rise into the sky, and the situation changed.

"Boom!"

Under this collision, hundreds of Cao's soldiers were pinned alive by the halberds in the front row.

But similarly, more than a thousand Han soldiers were knocked to the ground by the other side under this collision, and then trampled by the rushing Cao army, losing their lives in an instant!

"Kill!"

"Kill the thief!"

The soldiers from both sides shouted loudly at the same time, and for a moment, the color of the world changed due to the confrontation between the two sides.
