    "What, we are surrounded?" Yan Xing was shocked when he heard Xian Yufu's words, "How many Wei troops are there?"

    "Cao Hong and Zhang He of the front camp have crossed all the troops and horses across the Yellow River, totaling 20,000! Then Li Dian of the rear camp has led an army of 20,000, which has cut off our army's retreat!"

    "Li Dian? When did he come?" Yan Xing asked urgently.

    "We fell into Zhang He's plan. He fought with the general. It turned out that he wanted to attract our attention and let Li Dian lead his army to surround us without anyone noticing!"

    "A total of 40,000 troops" Yan Xing thought for a moment, "General Xianyu, the only plan now is to defend the camp and wait for reinforcements from General Wei and the Lord!"

    "But we only have 10,000 troops. General Wei and his military advisors are facing the army of King Wei. It will take a month at the fastest for the lord's troops to get here"

    "Don't worry, General Xianyu. Don't forget that the white horse and General Zilong's cavalry can rush to our aid at any time or cut off the Wei army's food route!" Yan Xing had calmed down at this time, "General Xianyu, you are responsible for guarding the rear camp, and I am responsible for guarding the rear camp.  Defend the front camp, we only hold on inside the camp, no matter what happens outside, we are not allowed to attack!"

    "No!"

    "We will each bring half of the repeating crossbows and half of the crossbowmen. There are four gale crossbows, two for each of the front and rear camps. If the Wei army wants to break through the camp, let them use corpses to pave the way!"

    "No!"

    Xian Yufu followed what Yan Xing said and quickly went to the rear camp.

    When Yan Xing arrived at the front camp, the captain had ordered the soldiers to close the camp gate tightly. Horse stakes and antlers were placed in front. On the two tall arrow towers, more than a hundred crossbowmen had their arrows on the strings.

    The remaining crossbowmen, holding their repeating crossbows tightly, lined up on both sides of the camp gate. The sword and shield soldiers had already set up a shield wall.  Behind the shield wall are two gale crossbows, with large crossbow arrows already set on them.

    Yan Xing was very satisfied after seeing it. No wonder the Han army was very powerful. The talents displayed by this captain of thousands were probably not comparable to those of the Xiliang army where he was in the past!

    At this time, Zhang He was seen leading five thousand soldiers and horses, slowly pressing towards this side.

    When approaching the range of the crossbow, the Wei army stopped.

    "Yan Xing, you are now surrounded by my 40,000-strong army. As long as I give the order, you will all be annihilated." Zhang He's voice was full of arrogance, "You are also a good general. I can't bear to kill you.  , My lord, the King of Wei, is very thirsty for talents. If you can surrender, you will be reused, and the soldiers under your command will also be spared death!"

    "Shut up!" Yan Xing shouted angrily after listening to Zhang He's words, "Only the soldiers of my Han Dynasty died in battle, and none surrendered. If you want to break the camp, let the Wei soldiers use their corpses to pave the way!"

    "Ha Yan Xing, you were a general under Han Wenyue and his son-in-law, but now you have betrayed and surrendered to Liu Cong. Don't you think it's funny that you are talking about loyalty in front of me?" Zhang He burst out laughing.

    "The Governor of Han was originally a Han official, and he never thought of rebelling against the Han and establishing himself on his own. But Cao Cao's rebellious heart is clearly exposed!" Yan Xing's voice was full of disdain, "Although I am not a loyal person, I can't.  He is stronger than you, Zhang Junyi, who rebelled against Han Fu and defected to Yuan Shao, then betrayed Yuan Shao and defected to Cao Cao, a complete untrustworthy villain!"

    "Seeking death!" When Zhang He heard Yan Xing's words, his face turned white and red with anger. He waved the big gun in his hand and shouted loudly, "Attack me and charge into the Han camp. No chickens or dogs will be left behind!"

    "Kill!" The Wei soldiers rushed towards the Han camp like a tide.

    "Great Wind Crossbow, fire!" Yan Xing shouted.

    The range of the gale crossbow is longer than that of ordinary bows and arrows. Each crossbow is equipped with fifty large iron arrows, so a hundred of them flew out at once.

    The soldiers in front of the Wei army held up their shields and saw iron arrows flying over their heads. The howling cold wind made them break into a cold sweat, but they were secretly glad to have escaped.

    But the pikemen at the back never thought that the Han army¡¯s arrows would not shoot at the people in front, but at the people behind. It was simply unreasonable!

    "The unjust thing is still to come. These are no ordinary arrows at all. They are like iron spears, mercilessly piercing the bodies of the Wei soldiers. Moreover, many iron arrows actually penetrated the bodies of two to three soldiers.

    The shrill screams made not only the other soldiers feel frightened, but even Zhang He and Cao Hong, who were commanding, felt a little trembling.

    "Thiswhat is this?" Cao Hong asked in surprise.

    "The Gale Crossbowthe Qin Army's Gale Crossbow!" Zhang He recognized it, "How could the Han Army have it?"

    Fortunately, there are only two Gale Crossbows. It will take a while to reload the crossbows.?a period of time.  However, the nightmare of the Wei army soldiers was not over. The crossbow arrows fired by the repeating crossbows came like a storm. Even if the shield bearers were at the front, they fell down layer by layer, making it impossible to prevent them.

    More than half of the 5,000 soldiers from the first camp were already dead or wounded before they could reach the Han army. Zhang He, who was in the distance, gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers from the second camp to press forward.

    There were no tactics at all. The soldiers of the Wei army relied entirely on their flesh and blood to pave the way to attack.  At the entrance of the Han army's camp, corpses were piling up at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon it became a mountain.

    With the cover of the mountain of corpses, the Wei army finally rushed to the gate of the camp, and the two sides began to fight.

    Yan Xing wielded his big spear and killed seven or eight centurions, thousands captains and army commanders in succession. The momentum of the Han army suddenly increased to the highest level. Coupled with the sharpness of the Han sword, the Wei soldiers who rushed up were quickly killed.  retreat.

    "Those who rush into the camp will be heavily rewarded, and those who dare to retreat will be killed without mercy!" Zhang He rushed over, swung his gun and killed several soldiers who retreated, and shouted loudly.

    "Kill!" the Wei soldiers shouted and charged forward again.

    Of course they don¡¯t care about the heavy reward Zhang He said. Even if they can earn their lives, they won¡¯t spend their lives!  It's just that they know that if they retreat, they will definitely die. If they rush forward, they may be able to get a chance.

    However, the Han soldiers guarded the camp like an iron barrel. In the chaos of the battle, the crossbowmen were able to take advantage of holding repeating crossbows to accurately shoot the Wei soldiers.  The crossbowmen on the arrow tower fired cold arrows at the centurions and thousand-centurions further away, repelling the Wei army's attacks again and again.

    After charging four or five times in a row, Zhang He was almost red-eyed. He didn't know how many Han soldiers he killed, and he didn't care how many of his own soldiers were injured or killed.

    But Cao Hong, who was beside him, really couldn't hold on anymore, because their troops had already suffered seven or eight thousand casualties. If the fight continued like this, his 20,000 soldiers and horses wouldn't be able to fight for long.

    "Junyi, we can't rush like this anymore, we have to find a way!" Cao Hong said loudly.

    "This" Zhang He looked at the pile of corpses at the entrance of the Han military camp, seemed to have just woken up, and shouted in frustration, "Send the order, withdraw the troops with gold!"

    There was a sound of gold ringing, and the surviving Wei soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly retreated.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
