Chapter 526: I'm Not as Good as You

The eyes of the two entangled with each other in the air,

A smug smile hung on the corner of Cao Ang's mouth,

Lips twitched slightly,

In a voice so low and soft that only he could hear him:

"Don't worry, I still have a lot of good things to use......"

Liu Bei on the opposite side also seemed to guess what Cao Ang said,

Nodding slightly, he said:

"I'll wait for you!"

Cao Ang went on this expedition,

Although he did not bring large siege equipment,

But it brought a huge amount of black oil,

The clay pot is prepared a lot,

Most of them are on the march,

Collected from everywhere,

Although they continue to use this type of attack,

But the stockpiles of supplies,

It's still enough for them to continue squandering for a long time,

Liu Bei's side can also afford it,

The city is well stocked,

And this time it was also prepared for a short time,

Basically, the city has been able to avoid large-scale fires.

But the fire of the city gates,

They are also helpless,

can only passively pile up high earth slopes on both sides of the city gate hole,

Block both sides,

But in this way,

It will also mean that the gates of the city have been abandoned,

Not only did he let the gates burn down,

blocked the possibility of Lu Bu's army entering Anqiu City through the city gate,

But at the same time,

Make the whole city of Anqiu,

It became a closed city.

The first day of the battle,

lasted for most of the day,

Cao Ang then ordered the trebuchet to stop the attack,

Liu Beijun finally won a chance to breathe,

Cao Ang sneered and glanced at the majestic Anqiu City,

Finally the order was given to withdraw the troops,

In the rush of gold,

Lu Bujun is like the ebb tide of the sea,

The siege was lifted.

At night, the night is as cool as water,

The heat has finally subsided,

The rest is a rare coolness,

Cao Ang stood outside the handsome tent with his hands,

Standing next to him were the two generals, Xu Chu and Xiahoudun.

Cao Ang's expression was calm,

He's waiting for a man to arrive,

After a while, a thin figure hurriedly ran over,

"General!"

Seeing this man coming,

Cao Ang breathed a sigh of relief visibly,

"Are things ready?"

"Fortunately, I was not dishonored! Everything is ready! Shogun, please look! ”

Emaciated young man,

handed a scroll of things in his hand to Cao Ang's hand,

Cao Ang took the thing,

Slightly heavy to start,

The texture is very peculiar,

Some resemble Caihou paper,

But it is much rougher and harder,

It's covered with dense handwriting,

It doesn't look like it's written by hand,

It looks like something was printed on it.

Cao Ang looked at it many times,

Then he nodded with satisfaction,

"Good! Good! Good! Well prepared. ”

Cao Ang returned the things in his hand to the man,

Turning his head to Xiahoudun on the side, he commanded:

"General Yuanrang, it's up to you tonight!"

Hearing this, Xiahoudun nodded,

A sneer appeared on his resolute face.

Half an hour later,

Several fireballs pierced the sky,

Fell on the wall of Anqiu in the distance,

The terrible sound of the alarm,

Piercing the silence of the long night,

Splashing flames,

Like bright fireworks,

Brighten up the otherwise dark night.

Because of the innumerable sand poured at the city gates during the day,

Though the city has been cleaned,

But outside the city, there was still a half-man-high mound of sand blocking the gates.

Although Liu Beijun discovered Lu Bujun's sneak attack,

But they can't go out and harass,

Countless people can only follow the methods of the day,

and sand to extinguish the flames of the city.

Liu Beijun's preparation is also sufficient,

You can't attack at the main entrance,

At the back door on the other side of Anqiu City,

There was already a team of soldiers who were waiting for the day,

Waiting for orders from above,

Less than a stick of incense after the clash at the main entrance,

This all-cavalry unit,

and he was already on his horse,

Always ready to go out and teach the enemy a lesson,

But when the gates were opened,

Less than half of these more than 1,000 people have just gone out,

Suddenly there was an earth-shattering shout of killing on the opposite side,

The first member of the general is brave and unmatched,

Rushed straight into the enemy's army,

As if he had entered a no-man's land,

The big knife in his hand flew up and down,

In the darkness, the enemies before him,

It is cut and chopped vegetables in general.

Behind him there were a large number of enemy troops rushing forward,

beat Liu Beijun, who had not yet gone out, dizzy.

"Retreat! Hurry back! Archers, shoot! Shoot! ”

The general guarding the gate at the head of the city hurriedly ordered,

In the dim light,

Can't tell the difference between friend and foe,

But Liu Beijun's guards couldn't take care of those at all at this time,

If you don't stop it,

I'm afraid the enemy will really rush into the city,

That's when it's really tricky,

After all, no one can be sure,

This is not Lu Bujun's strategy.

It was Xiahoudun who launched the charge at the back gate of Anqiu City,

Tonight he is in charge of raiding Anqiu City,

Near the main entrance, continue to throw clay pots with a super trebuchet,

Let Liu Beijun in the city be exhausted,

As for him, he led a team of elite cavalry to wait at the back door,

As long as Liu Beijun dares to open the door and appear,

They would lead their troops to rush forward and deal a severe blow.

Now that the purpose has been achieved,

The enemy general shouted the command,

He also heard it in the city,

Hurriedly issued a code,

The cavalry behind him immediately began to turn,

Begin to retreat outward,

Many Liu Beijun discovered the other party's movements,

hurriedly shouted a warning,

But at this time,

The archers above the city,

It's too late to prepare,

Only a few archers shot arrows in their hands,

The bow and arrow roared in mid-air,

Just because there is a dark night,

They can't see the enemy's traces at all,

Naturally, that kind of accuracy will not be accurate.

When charging,

Xiahoudun rushed to the front of the team first,

When retreating,

He deliberately slowed down again, the eighth library

Wait for everyone to evacuate this place first,

Finally, after everyone left,

Xiahoudun also came out of the range of the bow and arrow,

He turned around and stopped his horse,

His eyes looked at the slowly closing door,

A smile curled up at the corner of his mouth,

Stretch out your hand and touch the other arm,

When the retreat was made,

was pierced through the arm by a feathered arrow,

Fortunately, the bones were not badly damaged,

"Boom!" With a soft sound,

Xiahou Sheng broke the feather arrow,

The sharp pain only made him let out a muffled grunt.

"Withdraw!"

Seeing that the other party had already lit countless torches on the top of the city,

It was impossible to sneak attack when I wanted to,

However, this also shows that the other party does not dare to send troops out of the city easily,

Xiahoudun left the back door with peace of mind.

Although Anqiu City has undergone a series of reinforcements and reconstructions,

But there were only two gates, east and west,

The main entrance is blocked,

Liu Beijun at the back door didn't dare to act rashly,

can only passively withstand the attack of Lu Bujun.

Fortunately, although the range of those trebuchets is very long,

But after all, there are not many of them,

And all that was projected was those clay pots filled with black oil,

Just be careful,

There won't be many casualties at all,

It's just that the burning oil on the ground needs to be extinguished as soon as possible,

This also made Liu Beijun curse non-stop.

"Shuda, what do you think of Cao Ang's plan?"

Liu Bei stood outside the house,

Next to him stood Sima Fu.

Sima Fu gently rubbed his sparse beard and said:

"Tired soldiers!"

After a pause, his tone suddenly became heavy,

"I'm afraid that tomorrow the enemy army will make a big move!"

"Big move!?"

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows,

"How is the East Gate now?"

Sima Fu shook his head and replied softly:

"Now that the gates have been completely burned down, if the mound of sand and earth were removed, the whole of Anqiu would become an undefended city. And the city gate cave has been burned by fire for so long, and it has also suffered a lot of damage, I am afraid that it will be ......"

"Could it be that Cao Angjun wants to go directly into the inner city to fight!?"

Liu Bei's eyes narrowed slightly,

A bad situation comes to mind.

"That's not the case, or rather, it's not the right time......"

"Oh? What does this mean? ”

"Lord, although the city gate has been damaged, the Anqiu gate has been opened, but the enemy army does not have enough cavalry, if you want to break into the city gate under the defense of our army, you need to pay a huge price, after breaking into the city gate, you also need to fight with our army whose number is not much different from them, how can the enemy have a chance of winning? Second, even if the enemy army has cavalry as an assault team, the half-man-high mound of sand at the city gate is no less useful than the strong city gate, and it is impossible for the cavalry to rush into Anqiu City; Third, the biggest weakness of the enemy army is that there are no other large-scale engineering equipment, without the assistance of these equipment, with our strong city defense, wanting to enter Anqiu City is tantamount to a fool's dream! ”

Liu Bei's face turned from cloudy to sunny,

Finally, a smile appeared,

Sima Fu opened his mouth again at this time:

"However, I now feel that the enemy army does not seem to be in a hurry to attack the city, but rather seems to be besieging our army in the city."

"Huh?"

Liu Bei turned his head suddenly,

looked at Sima Fu on the side,

From Sima Fu's words,

He also noticed something unusual,

"Siege the master must be que?!"

Sima Fu nodded solemnly,

"Yes, Lu Bu's army's current tactics are exactly like this, they besiege but do not attack, they only use black oil and flames to harass us, creating panic and fatigue for our army, the time is still short and I can't see the benefits, but once the time is extended, our army will definitely float."

Liu Bei's brows furrowed,

"So that's the case, Shuda doesn't need to panic, he Cao Ang has just this little man, although he can trap my Anqiu City, but after a long time, the soldiers and horses from other places will naturally come to the rescue, and the siege will not be destroyed."

"What if reinforcements don't come?"

Sima Fu suddenly opened his mouth and poured a basin of cold water.

Liu Bei frowned,

looked at Sima Fu gloomily,

He didn't like the tone of the other party's speech at the moment,

But Sima Fu's words,

But at the same time, it also gave him a wake-up call,

After a moment of thought,

Liu Bei's eyes widened suddenly,

looked at Sima Fu in shock:

"You mean Xu Shu!?"

Liu Bei's gloom moment just now,

Sima Fu's real feelings,

A trace of sadness crossed the bottom of my heart,

I didn't expect it to be this time,

Liu Bei would be angry because of such a trivial matter,

But Sima Fu doesn't care about such details.

He let out a long breath and said:

"That's right, that Xu Yuanzhi sent troops to patrol and sweep in the south of Jizhou very early, starting first, we all thought that he was just deterring our army, so that our army could not act rashly, but now it seems that it should have been prepared, I am afraid that before Cao Ang besieged the city, that army had already broken into my Xuzhou and swept everywhere......"

Sima Fu's words made Liu Bei's face even paler,

His face gradually distorted,

Among them, there is unwillingness, anger, and hatred.

Sima Fu shook his head slightly,

Although he didn't see Liu Bei's face,

But it can also be roughly imagined,

Sima Fu in the bottom of his heart,

Whispered:

"Xu Yuanzhi, I'm not as good as you!"

When Lu Bu boldly enabled Xu Shu,

Sima Fu also laughed at Lu Bu for not knowing the height of the sky,

actually sent such an unknown figure,

And it's the leader who is in charge,

directly put on a posture to conquer Yuan Shao.

Sima Fu has been waiting to see this guy's joke,

Although Yuan Shao is weak,

But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse,

After all, he was once the premier prince of the north,

And there are countless famous generals under his command,

Although they are divided into many camps,

But whether it is Guo Tu or Feng Ji,

Or the trial, Xin's Shuangjie,

Those are all famous talents in the world,

Although Xu Shu hung the gold-lettered signboard of Mr. Shuijing's disciple,

But after all, I've been with Sima Fu for a while,

Although Sima Fu also admired his knowledge and ability,

But he didn't believe that he could defeat these older generation of talents.

However, the truth gave Sima Fu a slap in the face,

This made Sima Fu in his heart,

I am even more unconvinced,

When they used to be under Liu Bei together,

Sima Fu has always had a natural sense of superiority,

Even when he learned that Xu Shu later presided over the Northern Expedition of Lu Bu's army,

This sense of superiority has not been weakened in the slightest,

He was in Yanzhou, and even laid out some strategies,

helped Yuan Shao, and at the same time achieved some good results,

It's just that for various reasons,

This small local advantage,

did not change the overall situation of Yuan Shao's defeat and retreat,

Yuan Shao's successive defeats,

also made Sima Fu have to put a lot of backhands,

Abandonment or destruction on the spot,

This made him sigh for a while.

Although the general trend of Yuan Shao's defeat is difficult to change,

But Sima Fu still thinks that it is not Xu Shu's personal ability,

After all, the strength and equipment of the state army,

There are too many surpasses to Yuan Shaojun.

But now, after being besieged by Cao Ang,

Sima Fu's mind suddenly became active,

figured out a lot of key information that I had overlooked in the past,

Now that it's all integrated,

unexpectedly found that all this seemed to be premeditated,

And the man who did the sword,

turned out to be Xu Shu, whom he had been despising before,

Even with such a huge plan,

Far from being conceived by Xu Shu alone,

But it is undeniable that

The one who actually performs it,

But it is precisely this Xu Shu Xu Yuanzhi.

"Whewβ€”β€”! We still have a chance! That Lu Bu is dead now, as long as I can hold on, the victory will be mine after all! ”

Liu Bei's eyes showed firmness and madness.

"Really?"
