Chapter 685: The World is a Solid City

"There was a war ahead, and we had to take a long detour again, and now the road to Jingzhou in the north has all been blocked by Lu Bu and Yuan Shu. Cheng Yu said.

Diao Chan was wearing a plain linen, these days of wind and sun, has made her haggard a lot, in her mind, there are also a lot of memories, that is about Li Hugo, Diao Chan said: "They want to attack Jingzhou, I really don't know how Hugo is now?"

"General Li has Xun Yu, Xu Shu, and Pang Tong attached, although it may not necessarily eliminate Yuan Shu and Lu Bu, but it is still no problem to protect himself. Cheng Yu said, his lips were cracked, he hadn't eaten a full meal for many days, and he recently had a stomach upset because of drinking stream water.

Diao Chan gritted his teeth: "Honghua, how many coils and grain do we have?"

"There is only enough food for three days, and it is entangled...... It's all gone. "But I picked a lot of wild fruits along the way, so I can satisfy my hunger for a while." ”

Green Leaf said: "I finally came here, as long as I walk for another seven days, I can meet the master, we are like this now, are we going to take away a lot of roads again?"

"Not much, just a month. Diao Chan said, "We didn't have anything in the previous month, didn't we get through it, and now the rest of the road is not so difficult to walk, at least there are no refugees and bandits around here." ”

For Diao Chan's persistence, Red Flower and Green Leaf are also very curious, what kind of person is this Li Hugo, who can make a beauty like Miss Diao Chan become so desperate.

A peerless immortal like Diao Chan, I'm afraid that in any place, it is an existence that is loved by thousands of people, and as long as she is willing, with this charming appearance, I am afraid she will be able to provoke disputes between the two countries, such a person is definitely a stunner of events.

Although he was nominally the generalissimo of the imperial court, he was purely the same as the imperial court of the Eastern Han Dynasty, with his real name and no real power, so it was ugly to say that he was just an ornament.

Although he occupies Jingzhou, the nominal lord of Jingzhou is not him, but the son Liu Qi, and Li Hugo is just a metropolitan governor, and now he is facing the attack of Lu Bu and Yuan Shu, it is conceivable that Li Hugo's situation is quite bad.

However, along the way, Diao Chan has never given in to half a point, and has always been very clear about his goals.

And the battle of Shouchun has begun, Li Huguo's soldiers are divided into three routes, and the soldiers are coming to the city, but seeing that the city wall of Shouchun is towering and difficult to break, it is difficult for a while.

A large number of soldiers swarmed and killed the city wall, driving ladders and catapults, but they could not hurt the walls of Shouchun City in the slightest.

"There are too many dead and wounded, and if it goes on like this, even if our entire army is annihilated, we won't be able to break Shouchun. Xu Shu said, he gritted his teeth and said, "Shiyuan is a genius in siege, but he is not there, and he is also poor in donkey skills, and he can't do it anymore......."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding area was covered with a layer of haze, and a large number of soldiers fell from the city wall in the distance, all of them were shattered, and the death was almost one-sided.

And at the head of the city, it was Li Feng who was lucky to survive, Li Feng laughed: "You suffer death, even if you plot to sneak attack our water camp, what then, our Shouchun City is the first strong city in the world, the city wall is stacked with green steel stone and copper juice, the city wall is 100 zhang high, the battle consumption under the city wall is two zhang deep, there are all kinds of crocodile beasts in it, the city gate is 30 inches thick, even the heaviest siege radium, can not break it!"

"The villain has a will!" Sun Jian said through gritted teeth.

"Retreat, and camp thirty miles from the city. Li Hugo said.

"However, if we don't take this Shouchun City now, won't these more than 8,000 brothers die in vain?" Sun Ce hurriedly said.

Next to him, Sun Jian shouted: "The lord is doing the right thing, they have been piled up with logs and boulders on the city wall for many years, which is enough to consume us for a month of siege, if we follow the conventional method, even if it is a million troops, we have to explain it all here, and they are condescending, the bow and arrow are farther than ours, the catapult is farther than us, we have not yet attacked, we have to pay a heavy price first, for today's plan, we can only retreat first, and then think about the strategy!"

Back in the barracks, Li Hugo saw the wounded around him, one by one he was uncomfortable and groaned, he couldn't see it.

To take Shouchun, Li Hugo can follow Cao Mengde's method, in fact, Yuan Shu was finally taken down by Cao Mengde, according to history.

It turned out that Cao Mengde should have led an army of 170,000 to conquer Yuan Shu, who was the first to claim the emperor, and formulated a strategic policy of attacking the pseudo-capital Shouchun at all costs, but Yuan Shu was not stupid, after several defeats, he held on to the city, and wanted to wait for Cao Mengde to retreat after the grain and grass were exhausted, and then take the opportunity to chase and kill, and he would definitely be able to win.

Facts have proved that the strategy adopted by Yuan Shu is completely correct, just like the current situation, to win Shouchun, the price is too great, and Cao Mengde has 170,000 people, and Li Hugo now only has 70,000 people, a difference of more than half.

At the beginning, Cao Mengde went deep into the enemy's territory, and there were problems with the supply and demand of his own reserves, plus there were still 170,000 mouths to eat every day, and soon the food in the warehouse bottomed out, at this time, Cao Mengde had a plan, and ordered the military food officer Wang Gao to use Xiao Hu to distribute food, but soon, the military camp was full of dissatisfaction with Cao Mengde, Cao Mengde was in the army all the year round, he smelled the smell of mutiny, so at this time he had to find a scapegoat to help him carry this black cauldron, obviously, the military food officer Wang Gao was the best candidate, so Cao Mengde used Wang Gao to embezzle the military food, cut off his head and hang it high in the camp, showing everyone that Wang Gao embezzled your military food, not me Cao Mengdeke deducted you.

But this is only to transfer the grievances of the soldiers, the problem of military rations is still the biggest problem faced by Cao Mengde, after Wang Yuan's death, Cao Mengde knew that he had come to the final bottom line, on the one hand, there was a serious shortage of food, on the other hand, he could not retreat, because retreat will be chaotic, chaos will be defeated, so there is only one way to go, that is, to attack Xia Shouchun, and then can not attack, without Yuan Shu to shoot, he will be killed by his subordinates mutiny.

The next day, Meng De ordered the generals of each battalion to break the city if they did not break the city within three days, all of them were beheaded, Meng De personally supervised the troops to move the earth and transport stones, fill the trenches and plug the trenches, the arrows and stones on the city were like rain, there were two members of the generals who avoided and returned, Meng De cut the sword and cut down the city, and then dismounted to pick up the soil and fill the pit, so the soldiers of all sizes moved forward, and the military prestige was greatly enhanced. But in this battle, Cao Mengde died 80,000 people.

Li Hugo only had 70,000 people, and he couldn't use such a method to attack the city, so Li Hugo couldn't attack the city from outside, so he had to find another way, for this method, in the middle of the night, Li Hugo still couldn't sleep.

But at this moment, a fast horse suddenly flew past in the jungle in the distance, and the man was running from the south gate of Shouchun, Li Hugo picked up a hard bow beside him, pulled the string, and released it with an arrow.
