Chen Qun thought that he could be rewarded, and he could get some credit at worst.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Cao Cao shouted angrily: "Do you think that this appearance is stupid, or do you think that the Ming army is stupid enough?" Will you watch you dig a pit and jump in? ”

Chen Qun's neck shrank and hurriedly retreated.

When the rest of the people saw it, they immediately lowered their heads.

Rubbish!

Cao Cao scolded secretly and set his eyes on Cheng Yu and Jia Xu.

Cheng Yu immediately didn't dare to slack off, got up and said: "Prime Minister Qi, after discussing with Lord Jia, I think that the strength of the Ming army is indeed very strong, but because of its huge size, the scope on it is not small, if you can add something to him, maybe the speed will not be so fast." ”

"Huh?"

Cao Cao's eyes couldn't help but light up.

However, Jia Xu said: "It's just that the Ming army can make this thing, and if you think about it, you can think of this, and there must be another way to deal with it." ”

Cao Cao laughed and said, "He has a good plan, and his true appearance has also crossed the wall ladder." However, the eyes that looked at Cheng Yu and Jia Xu were much softer, and with his wisdom, he wouldn't think that they couldn't think of a solution, just to give him face.

That's the difference between top and secondary!

The next day, fighting resumed.

Gao Shun looked at the Cao Jun who was rushing and instructed his subordinates: "Everyone be careful, Cao Jun has suffered several losses, and if you come back this time, you must be prepared for other things." ”

"Yes, Dudu!"

This time, Cao Jun is not a rabble, he can be regarded as the mainstay of the army, not the elite, but the elite.

Gao Shun looked at them with a flickering in his eyes, as if he had a different idea, but somehow, in the end, he died down.

The time has not yet come!

When Cao Jun entered the range of fifty zhang, Gao Shun shouted unhurriedly: "Prepare to release arrows!" ”

The sound of "bangbang" sounded almost at the same time, and the bowstrings were all tightened.

Thirty zhang!

"Put~"

Woohoo......

Six thousand six hundred crossbow bolts flew out from the 660 shields on the front, shooting at Cao's army. Cao Jun has already suffered several losses, so naturally he will not be unprepared. Cao Cao, who played the legacy of the Han Dynasty, was not comparable to Liu Bei in the poor man's ditch, although their heavy shields still couldn't completely block these strong crossbows, but with some other preparations, they could also prevent most of them.

Gao Shun was not disappointed when he saw that he had killed and injured more than 300 people, but continued to order the arrows to be released.

Another wave of crossbow arrows was released, and the losses of Cao's army increased greatly, reaching thousands of people, just because they were close, and the lethality of the bows and crossbows doubled. However, it also brought Cao's army closer to the fortress of war.

"Lost~"

With the shouting of a general of the Cao army, the soldiers of the Cao army threw out the sacks, cloth bags, stones and other objects in their hands one after another, and accurately smashed them on the top of the war fortress.

After the front was lost, the back continued to be lost, and it didn't take long for the war fortress to pile up a hill of all kinds of things, and the speed was greatly reduced.

"Governor, do you want to open the window and get rid of these things?"

Faced with his subordinates' proposal, Gao Shun did not reply immediately, thought about it, shook his head and said: "No, Cao is a thief and treacherous, it must not be so simple, let's see what Cao Jun does next." ”

"Yes!"

Although his subordinates responded, Gao Shun, who was helpless, heard it clearly.

Gao Shun didn't pay attention to it, his eyes were on Cao Jun, who was running endlessly, and he ordered again: "Keep releasing arrows!" ”

"Yes, Governor."

Answered, paused slightly, and said: "Dudu, but we don't have many crossbow arrows left!" ”

"I'll talk about it when I'm done."

When Gao Shun said this, he didn't move his head for a moment, just because he noticed the problem.

"Is this trying to bury us alive? I don't have too much appetite, so I'm going to die! ”

The size of the war fortress is not small, but it is only relative, and it is far from the mountains. Under Cao Cao's orders, Cao's army constantly threw all sorts of things, most of which fell on top of the war fortress and a few on the periphery.

Due to the heavy increase in burden, the speed of the war fortress decreased again, and there was a faint tendency to be surrounded and submerged by Cao's army.

"Go to the left and get out of this battlefield."

"Yes, Dudu!"

It's heavy, it's slow!

But the momentum has increased, and the Cao army on the left was either pierced into a hole or vomited blood under the attack of the Ming army's spears and the impact of the war fortress. Occasionally, a few Cao soldiers who pretended to be injured and fell to the ground, trying to enter the war fortress to destroy, were not allowed to enter it, but at the same time, they were simply not allowed to fall, they just lay on the ground and died a good death.

The siege of the Cao army was suddenly resolved, except for the war fortress, which seemed to be an arm for the Ming army, the others seemed to be of no use.

"Governor, Cao Jun has another move!"

Gao Shun, who had been watching Cao Jun's movements in front, received the report, and his brows couldn't help frowning, but he didn't see any other movements that needed attention. However, Gao Shun didn't believe that his subordinates dared to lie about the military situation, so he asked, "What's the situation?" ”

"Governor, right! Cao Jun seems to be digging into the ground? ”

"Huh?"

Gao Shun was stunned, walked quickly in the war fortress, came to the right, looked to the right through the hole, and looked at the place he had passed before. I saw Cao Jun soldiers turning into ordinary people, holding hoes, big knives and other things of different appearances and digging on the ground.

"Huh! Is this trying to dig a hole to stop us? Or is it an ambush from it? I'm afraid these people are not out of their minds! ”

Gao Shun said disdainfully, and then ordered: "Order, let our army come out and walk, and let Cao Jun wake up, let them remember that we are not fighting alone." ”

"Yes, Governor."

Shout...... Boom~

As the fireworks rose into the air, Cao Cao felt bad. It was the first time he'd seen it, but it wasn't the first time he'd heard of it.

"Prime Minister, the Ming army will move, it's better to retreat temporarily!" Cheng Yu was very discerning, and immediately suggested, "Besides, today is just a temptation, so we have to mobilize the cavalry of the Ming army, which shows that our method is effective, but we need to be fully prepared." ”

Cao Cao got down the steps, and naturally responded: "It's okay, Mingjin retreats!" ”

With the sound of "Dangdang" sounding, before the Ming cavalry arrived, the Cao army retreated like a tide.

The Ming army chased for a while, and when it was about to enter the range of Cao's army's large-scale equipment, it stopped, and then slowly retreated as if provocative.

"Hateful! These bastards think that our bed crossbow is too big to move, so they ignore our true appearance, which is really hateful. Cao Cao's eyes almost wanted to breathe fire. In order to deal with the Ming army, Cao Cao ordered the craftsmen of the imperial court to make bed crossbows and other instruments that were more powerful enough to threaten the Ming army, but the disadvantage was that they were too heavy and too large to move.

On the first day of the battle, Gao Shun found the bed crossbow and other objects in Cao's army. In order to verify its power, Gao Shun also deliberately let the war fortress get closer to test it. The result surprised Gao Shun very much, and the shield that was hit on the war fortress was greatly dented and almost pierced. Gao Shun was sure that if he hadn't formed a war fortress and let most of the forces be unloaded, it would not only break the heavy shield, but also produce great lethality. Therefore, Gao Shun did not approach again, and at the same time ordered the generals to assemble ballistas, catapults and other equipment, intimidating Cao Jun not to use bed crossbows and other objects to approach.

Wrong is not so, no matter how big and heavy the bed crossbow is, no matter how difficult it is to move, it is not that there is no way, but it can't, just because the catapults of the Ming army attack farther and more numerous.

Cao Cao had a feeling that Gao Shun was training his troops, otherwise he would have been defeated with these large equipment of the Ming army, and it was precisely because of this that he was in a hurry and wanted to break through the war fortress as soon as possible and get a chance to win.

In Xuzhou, Gao Ran got the help of the trial and matched, and Wu Jun reached a stalemate.

Before, under Lu Su's strategy, Gao Ran suffered several small losses, although the loss was not large, but it was also quite annoying. After the trial arrived, under his suggestion, Gao Dian responded to all changes unchanged.

Under Sun Ce's tutelage, Wu's strength was only one line lower than Cao's army in the Sun-Liu-Cao coalition army, and it was much stronger than the Zhiyi army. It's just that they, like the wing army, are mostly infantry troops, that is, Lu Su is powerful, otherwise they would have been broken by the Ming army led by Gao Lan.

"King, I'm afraid that the Ming army has another conspiracy, so it's better to leave early!" Lu Su also gave Sun Ce advice to retreat.

Similarly, Sun Ce also refused, but he was not as hypocritical as Liu Bei.

"Retreat? Where can we retreat, not now, not in the future, this battle determines the general trend of the world in the future. ”

I have to say that it is really not so simple for Sun Ce to be a prince all the way, and he can see through the essence at a glance.

It's just that the first thing to happen was Hanzhong.

Chen Cang, because Xu Rong and the others moved fast enough, when the news reached Ma Chao's ears, it was already a few days later.

"What? Chen Cang was taken by the Ming army? What are the defenders of Chen Cang eating, and why is the news only coming now? And where did the 100,000 Ming army come from? So many people appeared in Chencang, why didn't the others report it, are they all blind? So many people can't see it? The guards of Duyang and Yongxian should all die! It's a waste of food to live! The furious Ma Chao almost strangled the person who delivered the letter, but fortunately Ma Dai stopped him and saved his life.

"Big brother, now is not the time to pursue this! If you let these people enter Hanzhong, it will be troublesome, and you need to return to help immediately! ”

"That's right!"

Ma Chao calmed down and said, "Pass on the order, set off for reinforcements quickly!" In addition, immediately send someone to inform Ling Ming that he must stop people in the valley. When the time comes, he will fight back and forth with Ben and break it in one fell swoop. ”

"Yes, General!" Ma Dai responded, and said, "The Ming army may also attack Xiliang, and I must immediately notify my father." ”

"Well, you can arrange it!"
