"Quick, stop them!"
At Sima Ju's command, more than half of the several thousand elite Yellow Turban soldiers split up. Under the leadership of a general, they turned their horses around and faced the Black Tiger Guards led by Cao Yu.
This team of elites marched neatly, unlike the other bandits who were in a mess. They were the backbone of the Yellow Turban Army.
It seemed that the Yellow Turban thieves weren't all idiots!
"County Deputy, Official, look, we have reinforcements!”
On top of the city wall, the East County Deputy and a few other high-ranking officials who were commanding the battle were overjoyed when they heard this. They hurriedly looked outside the city, but when they saw that there were only a few people, they could not help but be disappointed. What could they do with so few people?
But at least it was support, right? At the very least, it could rouse people's hearts.
Thus, at their behest, the news of the arrival of reinforcements spread throughout East County. The morale of the army was greatly boosted, and they stopped wave after wave of Yellow Turban soldiers from charging up the city wall.
Cao Yu estimated the distance as he sprinted. He only raised his hand when he entered the shooting range.
"Shoot!"
The Black Tiger Guards, who were already prepared, released their bowstrings and quickly loaded their arrows again.
He shot three arrows in a row, and thousands of them rained down on the Yellow Turban army.
Hundreds of people fell off their horses. Even if they were not shot to death, they would be flattened by the horses 'hooves, causing the team to instantly fall into chaos. However, under the shout of the leader, they stabilized again.
However, what greeted them was another nightmare!
As the distance was shortened, it was no longer suitable for riding archery. Under Cao Yu's command, the Black Tiger Guard put away their bows and pulled out the javelins on their backs.
"Throw!"
Three more times, three thousand javelins were thrown wave after wave into the Yellow Turban army.
The power of the javelin was much greater than that of the arrow. Many Yellow Turban soldiers were pierced through along with their horses.
Amidst the wails, another few hundred people fell. Before the two sides had even come into contact, their side had already lost a quarter of their members. This made the leader angry but also terrified. Where did this life-threatening Yama come from?
The two groups of cavalrymen collided. No one from the Black Tiger Guards made a sound. They only stabbed out with their spears. If they didn't die, they would be injured. In addition, the leader Cao Yu was unstoppable. The Black Dragon Halberd swept across a large area. No one could stop their footsteps.
After chopping vegetables and melons, the Yellow Turban cavalry was scared out of their wits. Only a few hundred people turned around and fled, not daring to stay here anymore. The Black Tiger Guards were no different from demons in their hearts!
Under Cao Yu's lead, the Black Tiger Guards did not stop and charged towards Sima Ju.
The mouths of the high-ranking officials on the city wall turned into an O shape. Where did these reinforcements come from? So powerful! Seeing the reinforcements rushing towards the leader of the bandits, he couldn't help but feel energized and secretly cheered for the Black Tiger Guards! Come on, kill Sima Ju!
Sima Ju was also stunned. These were his elites, and they were finished with just a charge? Who were these cavalrymen? Could it really be a ghost from hell?
Looking at the 'specter' charging towards him, Sima Ju was so frightened that he quivered. He screamed and ran towards Puyang County.
Want to run? No way!
"Dusk Stallion!"
Cao Yu shouted, and the Dusk Stallion immediately sped up. Like a black shadow, it chased after Sima Ju at full speed.
"Stop him! Stop him!”
The remaining 1,000 elite Yellow Turban cavalrymen were also loyal. They turned around and charged at Cao Yu.
"Get lost!"
The Black Dragon Halberd danced up and down, sweeping left and right. He didn't encounter any enemies along the way. He was riding alone, and he was able to split up the 1,000 enemy troops.
Such a showy operation shocked the county deputy and the others who had been paying attention to it at all times!
"This is the enemy of ten thousand people!"
The Black Tiger Guards took care of the enemies behind them. The Dark Stallion jumped up with Cao Yu on its back and fell towards Sima Ju.
"Die!"
"No!"
A cold light flashed, and a head flew high into the air. The canal commander who led the Yellow Turban bandits to wreak havoc in all directions was dead!
"Good!"
The people on the city wall were overjoyed. They finally saw the hope of victory!
"Everyone, let's shout together! The leader of the thieves, Sima Ju, is dead!"”
"Sima Ju is dead!"
"Sima Ju is dead!"
"Sima Ju is dead!"
The shouts resounded throughout East County. The tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers who were attacking the city were stunned and looked in the direction of the commander's flag. Where was the commander's flag? There was only a group of black cavalry, the leader of which was holding a halberd high. The head on the halberd was none other than the canal commander.
The canal commander was really dead!
Tens of thousands of Yellow Turban soldiers were instantly thrown into chaos!
Meanwhile, Xi Zhicai, Cao Ren, and a few others also led 10,000 cavalrymen over.
The charging cavalrymen against the infantrymen were simply a one-sided massacre!
The wails at the scene continued. Why would the Yellow Turban bandits still care about attacking the city at this time? All of you, run in all directions. Escape is more important!
Cao Yu frowned and roared,"Those who surrender will be spared!"
The Black Tiger Guard also roared. Finally, the 10,000 cavalrymen on the battlefield also shouted.
Who would want to die if they could?
Except for a few minor canal marshals who resisted stubbornly and were killed, and those who ran away, most of the Yellow Turban soldiers chose to surrender.
They confiscated their weapons and escorted them together. After counting, there were actually more than 20,000 people who surrendered!
That's right, these people could be selected and trained to become a capable army.
The city gates opened, and the county deputy and the others came out to welcome them.
The task of negotiating was naturally left to the actors. As for how to make East County accept Cao Cao's rule, that was also the task of the military counselor. In any case, Cao Yu would not do such a tiring thing.
No one knew how Xi Zhicai persuaded him, but it didn't take long for him to take down those high-ranking officials and allow the Cao army to move into Puyang County.
As soon as he stepped into the city, the system notification sounded.
"Ding! Mission completed. Reward: One Divine Weapon Card.”
"Another divine weapon? Use it!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining the divine bow, Thunder Bow.”
"Although it's not bad! But System, you can't be giving me whatever I lack, right?”
"Ding! The host is overthinking. All rewards are random.”
"Tsk, I'd be a fool to believe you. You're a bad old man!”
The System was speechless.
