Zhang Chao sneered coldly, "Xuan Jia Formation! Attack!"
Zhong Shao's cavalry directly crashed into Zhang Chao's army's huge shield.
Thud!
The collision between the huge shield and the warhorses produced a fierce impact sound.
种邵以为凭借战马的冲击力，可以将巨盾撞开。盾牌再坚固，也是人来握着的。战马的冲击力足以让握着盾牌的人脱力甚至受伤，从而放下盾牌。
However, he, who had no battlefield experience, never thought that the warhorse would be knocked down to the ground by the huge shield.
"How is this possible!" Zhang Shao stared dumbfounded.
"Idiot, a noble son who has never been to the battlefield."
Zhang Chao looked coldly at the scene on the battlefield, showing no surprise at all. Everything was within his calculations.
With such a short distance, the war horses couldn't gain enough momentum to make a real impact.
"Raise your spears!"
Upon closer inspection, each of the shields held by the Cao army has two holes, perfectly sized to accommodate their long spears.
These are the latest gargantuan shields crafted by Han Ji, not overly difficult to make, but extremely time-consuming. Not only must the shields be sturdy, but their size must also meet the required standards. The holes need to ensure a perfect fit for the long spears.
Therefore, due to production issues, these giant shields were not deployed on the battlefield at Guandu.
"Push!"
Four shield formations advanced from four directions, with long spears and giant shields pushing forward. The giant shields knocked down war horses while two specially-made sturdy long spears pierced through, killing one horse and directly targeting another cavalryman.
Splatter!
Splatter!
Long spears thrust, and a cavalryman becomes a soul lost beneath the spear.
Soon, this 500-strong cavalry army was annihilated by Cao's troops.
However, Cao's shield formation did not cease.
"Archers! Three rounds of volley! Fire!"
Arrows fell in the middle of four shield formations, shooting at one thousand infantrymen standing next to Zhong Shao.
For those without armor, arrows were deadly weapons.
Having only a passionate spirit is not enough to achieve victory.
Cao Jun's shield formation is like a meat grinder, gradually compressing the living space of the soldiers led by Zhong Shao. The arrows of Cao Jun's crossbowmen didn't stop either. Since they had huge shields to block, these arrows couldn't harm their own people, allowing them to shoot freely. The soldiers crowded inside, as long as they randomly shot an arrow, they could hit the enemy.
Zhang Chao followed a shield formation and with each step, he treaded upon an endless stream of glamorous crimson blood.
Zhong Shao's face was filled with despair. How could this be just an ordinary farming army of the Cao army? How could they possess such terrifying combat power?
No wonder those old guys were unwilling to lead the troops. It turns out they had already anticipated such a situation.
"I refuse to accept it! I can't bear it! I am willing to..."
Zhong Shao Gang wanted to surrender, but unfortunately he never had the chance to utter the last word "surrender"
because there was an arrow lodged in his mouth.
It was a barbed arrow, and even though it only pierced Zhong Shao's mouth, once pulled out, he would be unable to speak again.
"Honorable Mirror Hall Chief Supervisor! In this battle, no one shall be spared!"
Zhang Chao's resolute command extinguished any hope of survival for the guards.
There must be no survivors in this battle. They did not want prominent Han court officials like Fu Wan, Dong Cheng, Yang Biao, and Zhou Zhong to be accused immediately after Lord Shao surrendered. Not only were they renowned, but they also had countless students and friends. If they all caused a commotion, Chang'an might experience a long period of turmoil.
So, Zhong Shao must die!
And those guards must also die!
虽然张超的话也激起了这些府兵困兽犹斗的决心，但在绝对的实力差距面前，并未翻出什么大浪。
When the last foot soldier fell, the giant shield was finally lowered.
The Cao army had only four injured soldiers. These three were injured because their spears broke at the same time they were replacing them with new ones. Arrows shot by archers behind the enemy's shield formation accidentally hit their own men through the holes in the giant shield. However, since they were all wearing heavy armor and the arrows were not barbed, the injuries sustained by these three Cao soldiers were not serious.
After the battle, hundreds of people emerged from the streets and alleys. They were not dressed in armor and did not carry weapons, but instead held water buckets, rags, cloth bags, and brooms.
Many people think that the broom was invented by foreigners, but in fact, the broom originated in China. As early as four thousand years ago in the Xia Dynasty, Shao Kang (also known as Du Kang), the inventor of Du Kang liquor, happened to see an injured wild chicken dragging itself forward, leaving less dust behind. He thought, this must be because the chicken feathers were used to make a few brooms. This is also the origin of feather dusters. However, because the feathers used were too soft and not durable, Shao Kang replaced them with materials such as bamboo strips and grass, transforming the duster into a durable broom.
These people first put these bodies into the bags they brought, then swept some residual limbs and internal organ fragments into the bags. Afterwards, they poured water from the bucket onto the ground and several houses in the streets that were stained with blood, using a cloth soaked in white vinegar to clean off the bloodstains on the walls. (White vinegar can break down the protein in bloodstains and remove them from the wall surfaces.)
In less than half an hour, the streets became clean and tidy. If it weren't for the faint smell of blood lingering in the air, no one would be able to tell that a battle had just taken place here.
@ Zhang Chao looked towards the west of the city. Even though Cao Ang and the others had already made all the arrangements, he still had some concerns about the situation in the Siskong Mansion.
@ However, he was worrying too much. Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
————————————————————————————————————
Half an hour ago, in the Sikong Mansion, Cao Anmin swung his sword and killed one black-clothed figure after another. However, when facing the leader of these black-clothed men, he felt somewhat helpless.
Cao Anmin fought bravely against countless black-clothed enemies in the Sikong Mansion, but he found himself at a disadvantage when confronting the leader.
This black-clothed leader and his martial arts level are the same, both being at the initial stage of the second-class. However, the black-clothed leader relentlessly uses a strategy of exchanging injuries, causing the young man Cao Anmin, who has never experienced a real life-or-death battle, to retreat step by step.
"What a mess, Anmin."
"Yes, you can't even handle this kind of guy."
Caomin gritted his teeth and, after forcefully blocking the leader of the black-clothed men's attack with his sword, he didn't even turn his head as he cursed.
"Xiahou En, Xiahou Heng! You two stop talking nonsense here and come over to help me!"
