Chapter 560: White Horse (Part II)
"Ming Gong, a large number of ambushes have been found in both directions. The captain was worried that there would be ambushes in other directions, so he ordered the little one to come back and report it, and he took the rest of his brothers to explore in other directions. ”
After listening to the news brought back by Tanqi, Gongsun Du and Guo Jia were a little more unsightly. Both of them are responsible for such omissions, if they don't find out in time......
It's just that I sent someone to inquire last night, why......
Darkness Chencang?
Gongsun Du couldn't help but think so: It's just ...... This was an ambush laid by Cao Cao earlier, and it was only ...... this morning Still is......
Gongsun Du came back to his senses, and saw Guo Jia hanging his head and saying, "Ming Gong, Jia has transgressed!" ”
"Fang Cai and others passed on the news of the ambush to General Huang and General Zhao!"
"It's okay!"
Gongsun Du waved his hand and didn't say much.
Guo Jia didn't dare to respond, and asked for a fine for half a year, forgetting that not long ago, he fought with Dian Wei for three months.
Gongsun Du thought about it and understood that Guo Jia's good intentions were nothing more than to maintain his prestige. But does he know that such maintenance is needed? In the end, Gongsun Du still agreed, just because of the kindness of his subordinates, and if he refused, it might chill him.
After the war, let's take the opportunity to reward something to make up for the filial piety!
I have to say that Gongsun Du's love for Guo Jia is really to the bones. This can be seen from the fact that he has been with him every time there has been a war in recent years.
Maybe it's because Guo Jia died early in the original history and his reputation was slightly inferior!
If anyone asks, this is Gongsun Du's answer.
"Assemble the army!"
Gongsun Du and Dian Weiyan.
Dian Wei nodded, passed the order down, and at the same time put the weapon in his right hand on his waist, and put his palm on the side of his leg, and there was no other movement.
Gongsun Du caught a glimpse of his small movements, and a smile appeared in his eyes. He then raised his binoculars and looked at the sky above Whitehorse Castle. At the same time, he didn't forget to take a look at the battle situation at the north gate, as expected, he got Xu Rong's true biography and steadily suppressed the Cao army at the head of the city.
The other two sides shouted to kill, and the shouting did not weaken, but became more and more intense.
"Cao Cao shouldn't have imagined that we would be able to spot his ambush!" Gongsun Du said with a smile.
Guo Jia also had a smile on his face, and responded: "Even if I think of it, it can only be difficult for a good woman to cook without rice!" ”
Gongsun Du's face was straight, and he said: "The war is undecided, anything may happen, and you must not make a decision!" ”
Guo Jia's face narrowed when he heard this, and his face straightened, but as long as he looked closely, he would find that his eyes were so happy.
Boom, boom~
Bang, bang~
There were fireworks in the west and south directions, and Gongsun Du looked at it, turned his gaze, and swept to the east. But seeing the smoke and dust billowing out, the figure of the Taoist passed in front of him, not to the north, but to the south.
Whose idea was this? Did they expect that I would be missing one of the three, and that it was the east gate that was missing?
Gongsun Du was a little puzzled, put away his eyes, and said to Guo Jia: "Fengxiao, how many Cao Jun are in White Horse City?" ”
"Hmm...... According to the news, Cao Cao gathered more than 30,000 people, and less than 50,000 horses arrived here. However, in yesterday's battle, thousands of losses were lost, and there should be about 30,000. ”
Gongsun Du heard Guo Jia's reply, pondered for a moment, and said: "Although White Horse City is good, it is too small after all, and 30,000 people are very crowded. If you look at it this way, how many people will Cao Cao put outside the city to ambush? ”
Guo Jia said: "Ming Gong only divided his troops this morning, so Cao Cao didn't know that we only had 80,000 horses here, so the army that lay down should be no less than 10,000, otherwise once we clashed, we could only send them to death." ”
Gongsun Du only thought for a moment before nodding in agreement, and said, "In this case, it is better to take advantage of Cao Jun's attention to be attracted, and we will immediately attack the east gate to see if we can break through White Horse City in one fell swoop." ”
After hearing this, Guo Jia clapped his hands and shouted: "Ming Gong is clever! In this way, no matter whether Cao Cao has other preparations or not, as long as we can break through the white horse, everything will be closed; Even if it can't be taken down, it can be taken by surprise and disrupt Cao Cao's deployment. ”
Then, Gongsun Du handed a message to Xu Yi, asking him to be more careful, and then quickly rushed to the east gate of White Horse City with an army of 10,000.
At the east gate of White Horse City, there is only one city gate, and as a "horse head", there is actually an urn city outside the east gate that is not an urn city. In addition, the city wall is the shortest of the four sides, which can be said to be the most difficult side to attack, and it is precisely like this that the missing one of the three will be the missing east gate.
"Dian Wei, you go up in person to see if you can take the city gate directly."
Gongsun Du marched and instructed Dian Wei.
Dian Wei had a heart, but seeing that Gongsun Du was already holding a knife in his hand, he knew that if he didn't agree, he was afraid that he would have to do it himself, so he had to say: "Yes!" However, Ming Gong also asked the brothers to protect themselves, otherwise something went wrong, and I am afraid that the head of our old man will be remembered by many people. ”
Gongsun Du knew that this was the truth, but he was still a little angry, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, I know, you can go by yourself." ”
Dian Wei didn't answer, rode his horse to speed up, ran to the front, and had to pass a hand shield, and said recklessly: "Directly build a cloud ladder!" Storm the city in one fell swoop! ”
"Kill~"
The roaring shouts of killing suddenly sounded outside the east gate, and more than a dozen telescopic ladders quickly approached the city wall, and then stretched out the ladders. Not to mention, White Horse City is indeed very high, and this telescopic ladder is only barely enough, if it is replaced with the previous ladder, it should be enough, but the security is much worse. First of all, you have to waste a lot of time when you set up a ladder.
Seeing this, Dian Wei pulled onions on dry land, jumped up suddenly, and fell to the waist of the ladder with a "bang", but fortunately the quality of the ladder was good, otherwise it would not be able to withstand such a toss.
Dian Wei smiled "hehe", used his hands and feet together, and rushed up, holding a shield in one hand and pulling the ladder in the other, but he was not affected at all.
The Cao army at the head of the city did not seem to have recovered from the sudden change, and when they reacted and fired arrows downward, Dian Wei was already less than a foot away from the city. At the previous speed, it would only take a blink or two to get there.
However, the attack of the rain of arrows made Dian Wei only put the hand shield on his head, so that the speed naturally decreased.
After a dinging sound, Dian Wei was about to climb to the top of the city, and as soon as he removed his hand shield, he saw the soldiers of the Cao army defending the city holding a stone and trying to throw it at him. Dian Wei's face changed, and the hand shield was thrown out directly, and his feet suddenly exerted force, jumping upward, and his body was in the air, but he already held the double halberd in his hand.
The Cao soldiers who threw the rolling stones only felt their arms for a while, and the rolling stones came out of their hands, smashed them in the face, and slowly fell backwards.
Dian Wei landed on the rue wall, and a halberd picked up the hand shield that he had thrown before, and a halberd blocked the spear that stabbed him, and stepped forward.
"Ah...... It hurts me! ”
Dian Wei ignored the painful cry under his feet, but instead crushed it hard, and suddenly there was no sound, and the double halberd waved left and right, cutting off the spear that stabbed again. Then, Dian Wei took the opportunity to get closer, and the double halberd swept the chest of the Cao army soldier in front of him.
Cao Jun's soldiers felt a tightness in their chests, and their bodies involuntarily flew backwards, knocking down many people.
And this is Dian Wei's purpose, otherwise with his strength, it will be difficult to directly behead him!
In the future, who will say that Dian Wei is a reckless man, that person is afraid that he is a reckless man!
Dian Wei continued to do so, knocking down dozens of Cao soldiers, clearing a wall three zhang wide, and just as he was about to continue, a dull sound of footsteps came, and when he looked up, his face became solemn.
It turned out that the Cao army guards saw that this was not a solution, and immediately let the shield soldiers form a formation and stepped forward, preparing to besiege and kill Dian Wei.
Dian Wei just felt that this would delay time, so his face was solemn, but he was not afraid. However, these are not what Cao Jun can know, and he will experience it more.
"Roll~"
Dian Wei drank violently, and the double halberd flew and slashed, knocking a shield soldier away, just like before, crushing many soldiers behind. Dian Wei knew that this had given him a lot of strength.
"We have to fight quickly, if we can't take a section of the city wall in a quarter of an hour, I'm afraid it won't work!" Dian Wei thought about it, no longer left his hand, staring at the shield soldier on the left is a fierce attack, not to mention the heavy losses, can only be defeated and retreated.
Soon, Cao Jun left nearly 100 corpses behind, and at the same time gave up the city wall that was ten feet long. The Ming soldiers took advantage of the situation to occupy it, and one shield after another was erected, and a steel knife began to show its bloodthirsty blade.
"Speed up the offensive and strive to take the urn city within an hour and attack the city."
Under the city, Gongsun Du also saw the changes in the urn city, and immediately said.
