Chapter 994: Feints are already stressful

In the palace, Liu Yin was cutting trees with a wooden sword.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Cao Cao lay on the bed and fell asleep.

In the entire Xudu City, only Liu Yin and Cao Cao were the most calm.

One plays, the other sleeps, completely unconcerned about the battle outside the city.

"What's going on, did Zhao Jun come in?"

Some high-ranking officials have already sent their servants to investigate near the city gate. Always ready to escape.

It is impossible for them to live and die with Xu Du.

Naturally, they want to put their own interests first.

Although Zhao Hui's rumors have always been benevolent, they dare not hand over their lives and countless money to uncertain benevolence.

Especially those big officials who have embezzled countless amounts of money.

They are most worried that after Zhao Hui breaks the city, he will use them to kill chickens and monkeys.

In Youzhou, Jizhou, Zhao Hui killed corrupt officials and corrupt officials, I don't know how many there are for a long time.

Xu Du these people, naturally they have also heard of it, many people are related to them, and some side branches also came to Xu Du from Youzhou, Jizhou, specifically to join them.

Besides, the newspapers in Youzhou and Jizhou, every time they find out the list of corrupt officials, they will also be made public.

There are lessons from the past, and the corrupt officials in Xudu City are all frightened.

Anyway, after leaving Xu Du, the money they embezzled was enough for them to squander.

Why stay here and take risks, waiting to be settled by Zhao Huiqiu.

On the city wall, 30,000 recruits were mobilized and held on the city wall to fight bloodily.

And in the city, countless servants of wealthy families looked up and watched. As soon as the figure of Zhao Jun appeared on the city wall, they would immediately run back and report to their master.

However, Zhao Hui only made a feint today.

Dian Wei and Zhao Yundu still stayed under the city and did not move.

On the city wall, although the 30,000 Cao army were all new soldiers, but now under the command of Man Chong, they still blocked the Zhao army.

The shouts of killing were loud, but there was no Zhao army on the city wall.

Although the ladder was also pushed out, Zhao Jun, who climbed the ladder, pretended to fall after climbing halfway.

"Zhao Yundianwei doesn't move, it seems that Zhao Jun is really just a feint." Cheng Yu also swallowed back the hanging heart.

In less than half an hour, the 20,000 Zhao troops retreated.

"Xun You, today is just to practice your hands, I will give you another day, if you don't open the city gate tomorrow, don't blame me for being ruthless." Zhao Hui reappeared under the city.

Man Zhong secretly pulled out his bow and arrows and aimed them at Zhao Hui. But he was pulled by Cheng Yu.

Zhao Hui is not so easy to kill, even if Man Pet shoots a dark arrow, it is difficult to shoot Zhao Hui.

Although Zhao Hui also understood that they were stalling for time, it was better not to provoke Zhao Hui.

In case this arrow angered Zhao Hui, so that Zhao Hui did not wait for tomorrow, and directly launched an official attack, Xu Ducheng would not be able to defend it at all.

Just now, the Zhao army only feintmed, but for the 30,000 Cao troops on the city wall, the pressure was already very great.

That is, the Zhao army did not climb the city wall, so the 30,000 defenders did not panic completely, but many of the orders issued by Man Chong were not in place.

Watching Zhao Hui leave, Xun You said: "It seems that we can only delay this day, and tomorrow Zhao Hui will really attack Xudu." ”

"Why didn't you just let me shoot him?" Full of pets.

"Can't shoot."

"Let's go, let's go back to the city first." Xun Yu Dao.

As Xun Yu and the others walked down from the city wall, the servants of those families in the city disappeared in an instant, and immediately went back to inform their masters.

The Zhao army didn't break the city, and they didn't need to run away.

"It seems that Zhao Jun is like this."

"Let the kitchen, hurry up and bring the food to you."

I was nervous for a long time, and now I heard that Zhao Jun had withdrawn, and I suddenly felt very hungry.

It's just that they don't know that Zhao Hui is just a feint attack today, and they really think that Man Chong and Xun You and others, with 30,000 recruits, can really block Zhao Hui and defend Xu Du.

If you want to hold on, it's not that simple.

Night!

Cao Cao, who had slept all day, summoned Xun You and others to the Prime Minister's Mansion again.

"When you came, you weren't discovered."

Cao Cao, who had slept for a day, was full of energy at the moment.

The fatigue of many days was swept away.

"Nope."

Xun You and they were very careful when they came.

And at night, the whole city was under martial law, and no one dared to appear outside.

"What is the form of the battle today?" Cao Cao asked.

Xun You said: "It's difficult, Zhao Hui's soldiers are elite, Zhao Yundianwei didn't move today, he just feints, if Zhao Jundianwei makes a move tomorrow, no one can stop him." ”

Although he is good at planning, Xun Yu is equally superb in the overall control of the battlefield, and he is only short of temporary command of the local battlefield.

Today, Zhao Jun is only a feint, but whether he can hold it or not, Xun Yu Cheng Yu, and Man Chong are very clear in their hearts.

If you want to defend Xudu, unless there is a miracle.

30,000 recruits have become elite soldiers overnight.

Moreover, Cao Ren, Cao Xiu, Xu Chu and other generals all appeared on the city wall.

Now, as long as Zhao Yundianwei ascended the city wall, no one would be able to stop them.

The Zhao army will soon be able to storm the city.

"Today, the Zhao army feints, how is our army performing, can they improve?" Cao Cao did not appear on the city wall today, and he did not know how the thirty thousand recruits behaved.

In today's battle, although the Zhao army was a feint, it can barely be said to have experienced the baptism of war.

The recruits will make a little progress, and they will know how cruel the battlefield is, and the next battle will not be more tense than today.

Xun You shook his head.

"If, tomorrow is against the Jingzhou army, these 30,000 recruits can barely fight, but against the Zhao army, if the enemy army attacks with all its strength tomorrow, the 30,000 recruits will collapse in an instant."

Today, Zhao Jun feinted, and Xun You, Cheng Yu and others saw it.

But 30,000 recruits did not.

Although there are also veterans in it, but at this time, that little veteran is of no help at all.

If the recruits want to be chaotic, the veterans can't control it, and because the recruits are in turmoil, the veterans will follow the chaos.

Out of a hundred soldiers, there are thirty recruits, and as soon as the recruits collapse, they will collapse with the veterans.

What's more, among the 30,000 Cao troops, the number of recruits has already exceeded half, and at least 20,000 are recruits.

There are 10,000 veterans left, and they haven't experienced many bloody battles, and they can't even be counted as elite soldiers.

The elite soldiers in Cao Cao's hands had already been lost in Guandu.

The last time the 500 cavalry went to burn the grain and grass, they were all transferred from the generals in the army.

Today, these recruits thought that they were blocking the Zhao army, but tomorrow, when they faced the Zhao army again, and it was a stormy attack, they would collapse faster.

"My lord, I found that someone was secretly out of the city." Xiahoudun's people suddenly came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to report.

Tonight, Xiahoudun, who came back, brought men and horses to guard the city wall.

However, there are very few people who know Xiahoudun.

Even Wang Cai didn't know that Xiahoudun was on the city wall.

Xiahoudun just took over a hundred-man team and patrolled the city walls.

But at this moment, he had already spotted several people, dressed in night clothes, quietly out of the city.
