Chapter 271: Bloody Battle of An Lu

Cao Jun is rampant in the world, how can it be the power of one person!

Cao's family, Xiahou's family, five good generals?

And it's not all. There are also many excellent generals who succumbed to Cao Cao's command, they may be unknown in the history books, but their skills are not small.

And at this moment, it is the peak of Cao Cao, the peak of Cao Jun.

Rampant Hebei, Liucheng slashed.

The invincible Cao army in the world, whether it is physical, experience, or morale, has reached the peak.

Xu Huang commanded the Ten Route Army to kill under the city of Anlu, and then divided into two divisions to attack Anlu from the north and east of the city. There are also four generals under Xu Huang's command.

This elected the first general to besiege the city, named Han won. It is a native of Yuzhou, once participated in the Yellow Turban, and later with the surrender of the Qingzhou Yellow Turban to Cao Cao, he was selected as a general, and Cao Cao not only did not die in the southern and northern wars, but instead achieved the position of leading the general.

This won has a majestic face, a tall body, and is wearing armor and holding a large long knife.

"Yuan Shu's subordinate general Chen Lan? Hum. Han Yuan looked up at the "Chen" flag on the city and let out a sneer.

"Kill it, if you can get to the city first. After entering the city, he first took possession of the treasury. robbed gold and silver treasures. Han Won slashed the long knife in his hand, and the sharp blade sliced a stone in half, then parted the dirt and sank deep into the ground.

"The general has an order, the general has an order. After attacking Anlu, take the treasury first. With Han Yuan's order, he personally stepped forward and shouted loudly. This motivates morale.

Cao's army is strong, but it is also uneven. In the past, when Cao Cao first started, military discipline was not very strict. There were many massacres of cities or plundering by arsons.

But now that Cao Cao is the prime minister, the march has become regular. Cao's army attacked the city and conquered the city, but it didn't hurt the people much.

But after entering the city, it is inevitable that the official warehouse will be shot first.

In the past, Han Yuan invaded Hebei, divided the county seat, and robbed many official warehouses. Therefore, the soldiers under his command knew that this order would definitely work.

"Kill !!!"

Morale was immediately boosted, and the onslaught on the city walls continued.

"General, please let me lead my troops to attack the city together." A soldier under Han Yuan's command, named Zhang Shui, commanded 800 ironclad soldiers under Han Yuan's command. At this moment, when he heard the order, he was very moved, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask for his life.

Although Han Won is brave, he is by no means reckless. Wen Yan shook his head and refused: "Now that the war has just started, I am just using this to boost morale." You are wearing iron armor, and you go to the city and die in battle to give iron armor to the other party. Falling into the moat, it is difficult to climb out. Now is not the time. Wait for the other party to be weak, and you will have a chance to go again. ”

"No." When Zhang Shui heard this, he had to put down his imminent fighting spirit and promised.

For Cao Jun, this was indeed a temptation.

The siege of the city is like this, no matter how powerful the general is, it is impossible to capture a city like Anlu in one fell swoop. It is necessary to attack in turns, and fill it with the lives of ordinary soldiers.

Then with the clamor of the elite soldiers, the city can be broken.

It's just that Cao Jun is the elite of a hundred battles, even if it is a temptation, it is like a fierce attack.

"Ding Ding Ding !!!!" Half an hour later, the sound of gold and iron came from the direction of Cao's camp, and Cao Jun's soldiers knew that it was time to retreat without Han Yuan's order.

After Han Won withdrew his troops, another general of the Cao army stepped up and continued to storm Anlu City.

"What does General Han think?" After Han Yuan withdrew, Xu Huang opened his mouth and asked.

"Under my attack, the defenders of the city did not collapse immediately, which is not bad. Chen Lan has somewhat improved since she broke away from Yuan Shu. ”

Han Won said.

"How many days will it take to break the city?" Xu Huang asked again.

This won thought about it for a moment and said, "I don't know about this." See if Zhuge Liang wins the hearts of the people, if the people help him, he can hold on for a longer time. But there is one point, Zhuge Liang will never be able to hold on for ten days. ”

"Break the city in ten days at most." Xu Huang nodded and said.

This is the gap, and Anlu's foundation is too shallow.

On the castle. After Chen Lan led the army to hold a wave of attacks by the Cao army, he breathed a sigh of relief, it was really too difficult, Chen Lan himself went into battle and killed several Cao soldiers.

But Chen Lan didn't care about resting, he led his own soldiers and shouted: "Carry the wounded soldiers down." Get medical attention. Carry the body down as well. The soldiers, who were not injured, took the opportunity to drink water and eat some dry food to satisfy their hunger. ”

"No."

As a result, the soldiers, who were very tired, had to fight hard and began to carry the corpses in an orderly manner, rescue the wounded, and replenish their strength.

In fact, there is another advantage in Anlu City, the existence of sheep intestines, which can help the wounds of soldiers heal quickly.

The wound heals quickly, and the soldier can continue to fight.

The defending sergeant had just had time to carry the wounded down, had just replenished a little water, and had eaten a mouthful of dry food. The noise of Cao Jun's drums under the city started again, and I saw a large number of Cao soldiers and soldiers, and began to attack the city wall.

It is still the old prescription, the well car, the shield soldier covers, and the ladder car builds the road to let Cao Jun ascend the city. It's just a reduction in the link of launching the vehicle.

This cycle repeats itself, and the battle is the elite of the Cao army, and there are many men and horses.

It's really strong, strong as the sky.

This is still because Zhuge Liang is defending the city, and the Anlu city is strong, so he can defend it, if he is a mediocre talent, he will be broken in one day.

However, it was said that Xu Huang's army did not move, and the remaining four leading generals each led their headquarters to attack Anlu City in turn. Once in half an hour.

Six hours a day, no stopping.

It is to bury the pot at noon to make rice, and it is also used to eat in turns. After three hours of fighting, Chen Lan couldn't stand it anymore.

It was already noon and the sun was high. Usually at this time, I sleep for a long time, and then I am in a daze, and the afternoon will pass.

But now, Chen Lan feels that the days have been going on for a long time.

I wish the sun was going down soon.

This round of Cao Jun's attack passed again, Chen Lan's body was covered with blood, and there were many traces of arrows on the armor, but he was protected by the armor.

Chen Lan herself has killed twenty or thirty Cao Jun, and the killing is soft.

And the 4,000 soldiers in the city have gradually become sparse. The soldiers who were still able to fight, who were not injured or slightly wounded, were left with only 2,000 men.

Han Yuan said that it was modest to break the city in ten days, and Chen Lan felt that it would be very good to be able to hold on for five days.

Taking advantage of this effort, Chen Lan called a personal soldier and said, "Go and report to Lord Taishou, please send a thousand people to defend the city." No matter how late it is, it won't be able to hold on today. ”

"No." This personal soldier was also covered in blood and sweating profusely, and when he heard the words, he hurriedly agreed, walked down the city wall, turned over his horse, and went to the Taishou Mansion to move the rescuers.

This Chen Lan's personal soldiers entered the Taishou Mansion smoothly, met Jiang Wan and Zhuge Liang in the lobby, and said Chen Lan's words as they were.

Zhuge Liang, Jiang Wan was very calm, and let this Chen Lan's personal soldiers go down to rest for a while and eat a mouthful of rice porridge. Then Zhuge Liang mobilized a thousand people to help defend the city.

The reason why the two of them were calm was because Lei Xu sent someone to ask for help one step earlier than Chen Lan.

And Minzhuang is only five or six thousand people, and I don't know what the effect is when I go to the city to garrison. It was a bloody battle, and the situation was about to collapse.

"Anlu City can't be defended for long. I sent someone to Exian to ask for help, but there is no news yet. I'm afraid something happened to the Jiangdong side. I'll send someone to destroy it. Gongyan, find a few loyal and reliable retinues to go out of the city. When he returned to the city the day after tomorrow, he said that reinforcements were coming. There are as many as 50,000 soldiers and horses in Jiangdong. ”

Zhuge Liang thought about it, then made preparations with both hands and commanded.

"No." Jiang Wan promised and hurriedly went down. Then, Zhuge Liang immediately sent a second wave of people to urge Zhou Yu to rescue.

Rescue is needless to say.

Jiang Wan was ordered to go out of the city today, and the day after tomorrow he came back and said that the reinforcements had arrived and would arrive soon. It is a plan to attack the heart, in order to motivate the people who defend the city, and insist on defending the city.

Wangmei quenched her thirst.

The key is Zhou Yu's reinforcements.

But Zhuge Liang knew that there was probably little hope, because if Zhou Yu's reinforcements entered immediately, four days had passed, and the army would definitely have reached the vicinity of Anlu.

Now it is quiet, either there is a problem within Jiangdong, or Zhou Yu is waiting.

In the end, the two are not one family, and it is impossible to have the same mind.

"If you can't hold on, you can only abandon Anlu City. Taking advantage of the night, he led the remnants to the Yangtze River, joined Ding Feng, and went to the water first to avoid the edge for the time being. ”

Zhuge Liang planned in his heart and had prepared for the worst.

The foundation is too shallow, and An Lu is really in a dangerous situation.

In Anlu City, it was both quiet and noisy. The people hid in their homes, closed their doors and windows, and did not dare to make a noise.

Large numbers of wounded soldiers were carried down and placed in military areas. A large number of military doctors were treated with them.

Anlu's various city-defending equipment and materials are scarce, but alcohol and sheep intestines are not less. The healer pulls out the arrow for the wounded, then cleans the wound, stitches up the wound, and travels smoothly.

On the other side, a special official led 2,000 people, divided into two teams, and went to the north and east of the city respectively. After coming to the military area, he was in no hurry to go up the city wall.

Instead, he put on leather armor and got a weapon, and then he went up to the city.

There was also a lack of leather armor and weapons in the city, some of which were taken directly from the dead soldiers. And these people only trained for three or four days.

Let them take up arms and go to the city to garrison it.

The only advantage is that Zhuge Liang has been in Jiangxia for a year and is quite prestigious. And these people are not forcibly recruited, they are all people who choose to be strong and dare to die.

It doesn't matter if you don't know how to fight, you don't know how to use weapons, you are not afraid of death when you go to the city wall, just pick up a stone and throw it down.

At this moment, another wave of generals of the Cao army had already led their soldiers to attack. Chen Lan's defense line in the north of the city was very tight, very tight, and several times there was a danger that a small group of Cao troops would climb the city wall.

When Chen Lan saw a thousand people coming up, she immediately exhaled, and then shouted, "Pay attention to dodging the opponent's arrows." Those who have no weapons go to carry stones and smash people. Those with weapons were on guard, and the soldiers of Cao who had ascended the city were besieged. ”

Chen Lan is also a general who has been in the army for many years in the end, nothing else, she has rich experience in war, and she is quite calm at the moment.

Under his command, and with the addition of Minzhuang, the defense line in the north of the city was stabilized again. It's the same with Chengdong Leixu, but the bloody battle continues.

How long it can be held, no one knows.

The key still depends on Zhou Yu's reinforcements.
