Chapter 114: Encirclement and Reinforcement

More than ten rolling logs and more than ten stones were smashed at the head of the city, and some of the rolling logs and stones were smashed on the ground, raising countless dust; Part of it smashed on the vanguard soldiers under the city, and countless blood splattered out; Some of them smashed on the shields held aloft by the shieldmen, causing them to spit out a mouthful of blood and wilt their breath.

"Don't be afraid! Rush over with a square formation cover! ”

Sun Bin has a cloud in the art of war: "The method of the phalanx: it must be thin and thick, and the formation is there." The thinness of the middle is also, and it will be in the future. Thick and square, will be specialized. Stand in the back to protect the generals.

Cao Jun stepped forward in an orderly formation and covered the rushing car to reach the city gate.

"Bump!"

"Roar!"

"Roar!"

Boom!

Boom!

The crashing wood on the rushing car slammed into the city gate again and again, and dozens of soldiers inside the city gate used their bodies to resist the city gate to prevent it from being knocked open.

When the ancients fought wars, they rarely actually sealed the city gates with earth and stones. Defending the city will inevitably be breached, and it must be combined with harassment from time to time to be invincible. If the guards seal the city gates, it will be regarded as a sign of the defenders' determination to fight to the death.

"Pour hot oil!"

At the head of the city, the big iron pots tied to the wooden shelves were steaming, and several soldiers directly drew their swords to cut the ropes tied to the big iron pots, and all the pots and oil fell down to the city.

"Ahh

"Scald me!"

"Help me!"

Boiling hot oil was poured under the city, and some Cao soldiers were burned with bubbles all over their bodies, their skin was red, and they fell to the ground and rolled; There were also some soldiers who reacted quickly and used the iron shield in their hands to block the hot oil, but the iron shield conducted heat, and the high temperature instantly spread from the iron shield to the hands of these soldiers, burning these soldiers directly throwing down their shields.

I have to say that this wave of hot oil has brought a lot of trouble to Cao Jun.

Seeing this, Cao Hong stepped out of the nest car, took the drumstick in the hands of the drummer, and beat the drum himself.

Knock knock!

"The general himself beat the drum for us! Kill! ”

"Sons, kill!"

"Invincible Bears!"

The siege of the Zhan Xiong army lasted for a full hour and a half, although the original plan was a feint, but if the reinforcements from Zhuqi and Ganyu arrived to capture Licheng, then they could pretend that the city was still there, and then set up an ambush, let the enemy army enter the city, close the door and fight the dogs.

"That's it! Mingjin retreats! ”

"Collect the troops!"

"Collect the troops!"

A sound of gold sounded, and Cao Jun slowly retreated.

"General, do you want to pursue?"

Xu Tian shook his head, "The Cao army has 100,000 soldiers and horses, although Cao Hong has withdrawn, but there is still a large army behind him, once our army goes out of the city to pursue, it will inevitably be surrounded and suppressed." ”

"Pass my orders! Don't chase! Hold on to the city! ”

"No!"

Xu Tian turned his neck, he was so tired that he choked for an hour and a half, but he was not sure if the four armies of Cao Jun would attack in turn, and he did not dare to go back to the mansion to rest. Xu Tian hesitated for a while, walked into the corner tower, and fell directly to the ground and fell asleep.

Xu Tian's composure, which he could still sleep during the war, infected the defenders and made them calm down.

However, what Xu Tian didn't expect was that after they were blocked by the Cao army, the Leopard Army was no longer here in Licheng.

The defenders of Zhu Qi and Ganyu learned that Licheng was besieged by Cao's army, and each sent 6,000 men and horses to reinforce the army. There is no way, Zhu Qi and Ganyu each have 10,000 troops, and sending 6,000 reinforcements is already the limit.

It's just that 12,000 people and horses are not enough for Xiahou Yuan to "eat".

In this ambush operation, there were 25,000 people in Xiahou Yuan's main army, the Leopard Army, plus all the cavalry troops of each army gathered here, a total of almost 37,000 men and horses.

Coupled with the bravery of the Cao army, even if it was just head-on, Xiahou Yuan was confident that he would break through the enemy's reinforcements, not to mention that they were a well-planned ambush.

"Kill!"

"Swift as a leopard!"

The Leopard Army suddenly got up from the hillside, bent their bows and arrows and shot at the enemy reinforcements, and the 16,000 cavalry led by Xiahou Yuan himself also killed the two entrances and exits of the valley at the first moment.

"Swift as a leopard! Kill! ”

A rain of arrows fell on the heads of the two supporters, catching them off guard, and the sound of horses' hooves terrified them.

"There's an ambush!"

"It's Cao Jun! We're surrounded! ”

"Ahh I've been shot! Help me! ”

Xiahou Yuan's golden knife was immediate, clashing back and forth, and the golden dragon wind slashing knife in his hand was stained with blood.

"Attack quickly, attack the enemy unprepared!"

Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly, the golden dragon slashing wind knife slashed obliquely, the knife slashed, as if the knife shadow was thousands, the main general of the Ganyu City reinforcements raised his spear horizontally to block, but the barrel of the gun was split, Xiahou Yuan split again, and cut off the head of the main general of the reinforcements in Ganyu City.

Xiahou Yuan asked the soldiers around him to take off his head, and then ran to the commander of another support army, the golden dragon slashing wind knife was as fast as lightning, and the sword wind made a sound of breaking the air in the air, just like its name, cutting through the air, breaking through the wind and slashing.

"Ahh

A scream came out, and the main general of the reinforcements in Zhuqi City was also beheaded by Xiahou Yuan. Xiahou Yuan mentioned the head of the main general of the reinforcements in the second city, and roared angrily, "The enemy general will give the head!" Don't wait for you to get off the horse and surrender quickly! ”

The reinforcements of the second city saw that Cao's army was powerful, and even their two main generals were beheaded one by one, and they still beat a fart. Suddenly, many people directly threw down their weapons and squatted on the ground to surrender.

Seeing this, the deputy general of the reinforcements in Zhuqicheng sighed helplessly, threw down his weapon, jumped off the war horse and surrendered, and the deputy general of the reinforcements in Ganyucheng also had no choice but to surrender.

"Xiahou Qing! Xia Houjie! The two of you each led the generals of the headquarters to change into the dead Xuzhou army clothes and armor, and opened the city gate with the two generals! ”

The two young generals hugged their fists and said goodbye, they are the young talents of the Xiahou family, and they can be regarded as Xiahou Yuan's nephews, they are extremely agile and flexible on the battlefield, so Xiahou Yuan has always taken the two of them with him. After all, they are the children of the Xiahou family, and since both of them have some talents, Xiahou Yuan doesn't mind taking care of them. Moreover, as the commander-in-chief of the first army, he also needs his own cronies, and he also needs some staff to help him in the military.

After the two lieutenants learned of Cao Jun's plan, Xiahou Yuan also promised them that they would be credited with opening the city gate, and the two said that they would cooperate unconditionally.

There is no way, the position of the demote is very embarrassing, whether he can keep the status he originally had, it would be good to ensure that he lived, and he would encounter all kinds of white eyes and contempt.

However, who knows that this is not an opportunity, after all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Cao's army is powerful, and Tao Qian will definitely not be able to hold Xuzhou, maybe they can also earn a credit from it.

Poor Xu Tian is still holding on to Licheng, holding on to and waiting for help, he doesn't know that the reinforcements he was waiting for have been defeated and captured by the Cao army, and now those surrendered troops are going to take the Cao army to capture the two cities of Zhuqi and Ganyu.
