At this time, Yuan Shao was about to faint.

Although he has had many setbacks and even great difficulties since the incident, the final result is quite satisfactory after each difficulty.

Whether it was Zhang Yan's powerful Black Mountain Army, or Gongsun Zhan's White Horse Yicong, who was known as the elite of the world, they were all defeated under him in the end.

Now that he is victorious, he leads 200,000 elite soldiers in the land of Sizhou to the south, like Mount Tai pressing the top, and he originally thought that he could easily defeat Cao Cao, who he had never looked at.

As a result, the Central Plains was leveled in one fell swoop, and he Yuan Shao became the de facto master of the Han family.

But today's battle will be like this, something he never dreamed of before leaving

suffered repeated setbacks, not to mention the loss of soldiers, but was blocked by Cao Cao's army in such a little-known place as Guandu.

And the barrier defended by Cao Jun's army on the opposite side was not a city at all, but just an earthen wall that Cao Cao had temporarily piled up.

At this time, Yuan Shao's heart couldn't help but flash a person, Lu Yi.

If Koji Yi and his Xianden camp were here, the earthen wall opposite must have already been trampled under the feet of the "First Death Soldier", just as he had defeated the White Horse Yoshiko.

It's a pity that Koji Yi has been killed by him, and the first camp no longer exists, and it is impossible for him to admit that he killed the wrong person in the first place.

"Pass the order, and whoever is the first to climb the city will be promoted to three levels and rewarded with ten thousand gold!" At the same time as Yuan Shao's solemn military order, he offered a heavy reward.

Immediately, a soldier rode on a fast horse and shouted loudly to deliver his order: "The lord has an order, and whoever is the first to climb the city will be promoted to the third level and rewarded with a reward of ......."

……

Cao Cao, who was on the other side of the city, was in the opposite mood of Yuan Shao, and now he was already smiling with wrinkles on his face, and he couldn't support it.

"Hurry, hurry! Hanging stones, launching! ”

After seeing the miraculous effect of the repeating trebuchet, he ignored the danger, and personally fought beside him, commanding the slingers.

The trebuchet made by Ma Jun is very convenient, and someone has already loaded the big stones into a net bag of hemp rope, and the soldiers only need to hang the bags of stones on the thick iron hook of the roulette.

Then, a soldier next to him began to spin the huge roulette wheel with something like a winch.

At first, it spins slowly, but with the help of the inertia of the stones, the wheel spins faster and faster.

At a certain speed and angle, the net bags were cut one by one in an instant, and the stones were thrown out at a very fast speed.

And that's just a few breaths away from the last launch.

The stone was thrown dozens of feet into the air, and then it went down to Yuan Jun's head, and immediately smashed Yuan Jun into crying father and mother.

The stones were so high and so dense that they could not be resisted by flesh and blood.

"This time, Ping'er recommended Ma Yishi to make this artifact, and the credit is not small," Cao Cao smiled and said back.

"This is the responsibility of the son-in-law, don't worry about it," Liu Ping said politely.

"Hmmm! I know what you have done," Cao Cao nodded and said, "I will reward you after you return to the army." ”

This time he went north to resist the Yuan army, Liu Ping led the army to behead Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and made artifacts such as the giant high crossbow and the roulette catapult, so that the Cao army could hold Guandu.

Liu Ping's establishment can be described as an immortal achievement, no matter how much he is rewarded, it is not too much.

But everyone understands that at this time, the Cao family's life and death are still on the front line, and the reward is nothing.

Only by defeating Yuan Shao and holding the chassis of the Cao clan can the reward at that time be effective.

Cao Cao is a more pragmatic person, and the son-in-law Liu Ping opposite is a smart person, so there is no need to say something vain.

The goal of Weng and his son-in-law is the same, that is, to overcome the difficulties together, win this battle, and then share the wealth.

……

Countless boulders fell from the sky, and in an instant, countless Yuan Jun were smashed into flesh and blood, and countless people were killed and injured.

Although there is the temptation of Yuan Shao's huge reward, if you have a life to take money, you have to have a life to spend money.

Each of them struggled in fear to avoid the boulders falling from the sky, and when they climbed to the top of the city, it was difficult for them to rush through the open area in the middle.

Yuan Shao, who was supervising the battle in the back, and the strategists were secretly anxious.

The judge finally couldn't help it, and stood up and said: "Lord, if it goes on like this, the soldiers will suffer heavy casualties and low morale, so naturally they have no intention of attacking the city, and it is not a way."

The only way to temporarily withdraw from the army is to think about it in the long run. ”

"Lord, Zhengnan is reasonable!"

"Take a step back and open the sea and the sky, the lord is bright-minded, why should you care about the gains and losses at this time?"

It is rare that at this time, the ministers of the Yuan army are no longer fighting in the nest, and everyone persuades Yuan Shao to temporarily withdraw from the army.

Everyone knows that Yuan Shao has a good face, and now he is even more careful, according to this situation, even if the soldiers fight hard, they may not be able to win Guandu, and they will not benefit at all.

"Hey! Retreat for now. ”

Yuan Shao sighed, he just wanted to find a step down, so he waved his hand and gave the order to withdraw the army.

Inside the big tent, Yuan Shao gathered a group of advisers to discuss what to do next.

"Cao Jun's crossbow arrows and trebuchets are powerful, can you have a good strategy to teach me how to break the enemy?" Yuan Shao glanced at the ministers, especially at Fu Zhi.

Although he hates frustration, he has to say that this person can always come up with ideas at critical moments.

It's just that now the frustrated professor lowered his eyebrows and didn't say a word.

The same is true for the rest of the people.

In fact, they still haven't figured out how Cao Jun could have multiplied the power of crossbow arrows and stone throwers in such a short period of time.

Cao Jun had fought with others before, and he had never seen such a sharp artifact used, so it must have been something that had happened recently that they didn't know about.

It's a pity that now that the two armies are facing each other, they can't send a detailed work to investigate.

With so many big rocks falling from the sky, what good plan can they have to deal with it?

Seeing that all the strategists had become stuffy gourds, Yuan Shao couldn't help but be angry, frowned and frowned: "If you can't take Guandu, is it possible to force me to return to Hebei?"

Ha!

I mobilized the army and personally led an army of 200,000 to the south, but now I was resisted by Cao Agui's 50,000 soldiers, lost my troops, and fled back in disgrace, how should the people of the world think of my Yuan family?

I, Yuan Shao, don't I want to become the laughing stock of the world? ”

Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Yuan Shao slapped the table, and the more he talked, the more excited he became, and his voice became higher and higher.

"Lord, don't retreat!" Frustration finally stood up and said decisively.

"Oh, what is the best plan for me? Tell me quickly," Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked out from behind the table, and took the initiative to walk up to Fu Zhi, looking at this annoying guy eagerly.

Who would have thought, but he shook his head and said: "There is no good strategy in the next place, and it can break Cao Jun's strategy of throwing stones." ”

"What the hell do you want to say?" Yuan Shao's face suddenly turned cold.

If there is no countermeasure, and he is not allowed to withdraw his troops, isn't this a joke for him?
