The soldiers crowded into the narrow urn city, first the defenders of the east gate retreated, and then Sun Jian's army immediately pursued and killed.

However, due to the limited capacity of the urn city, after the defenders retreated, there was only half of the space left, so although Sun Jian's army was numerous, there were only more than 1,000 people who could squeeze into the urn city and Cao Jun for close combat, and the vast majority of the rest could only watch outside the urn city.

The fighting was fierce.

Although the number of Sun Jian's troops who squeezed into the urn city to fight with Cao's army was not very large, in this way, the thousand defenders would not be defeated immediately, which would allow Cao Ren to buy some time. But despite this, the situation is still urgent, don't forget, Sun Jianjun's base is extremely huge, even if the content of the urn city can't accommodate too many people, they can completely use their huge base to consume the defenders' remaining strength in batches.

In Cao Ren's heart, it is now a complete battle of time, to see whether the defenders of the East Gate will be consumed first, or whether the reinforcements can arrive first.

Hurry up and get reinforcements, so there is hope to turn the situation around.

However, the battle of time was only a unilateral idea of Cao Ren himself, and in Zhou Yu's opinion, since the city gate had been broken, the offensive and defensive battle of the city of Wengcheng would definitely end in the victory of his own side, even if all the reinforcements of the other side arrived. If the other three reinforcements really arrived before the fall of Wengcheng, the impact would be at most to make the time for the self-army to conquer Xuchang City go back a little longer, and the casualties of the self-army would be slightly larger.

In short, since they entered the city, the Jiangdong Army had no reason to withdraw from the city. The total number of soldiers in the city is far less than that of the Jiangdong army, as long as the Jiangdong army firmly occupies the gate of one side, it will be an invincible situation. Even if all the Cao troops in the city came to help, at most, the Jiangdong army would incur some greater losses. As for trying to turn the tide of battle, sorry, you don't have a chance!

Cao Ren may know these truths, but he is absolutely unwilling to think about it now, let alone think about it in that direction.

Kill the enemy! Now all you have to do is to throw away all distractions, don't think about victory or defeat, don't think about the consequences, the only thing to do is to pierce the enemy's chest with the spear in your hand!

Cao Jun and Sun Jianjun were strangled together, fighting to the death in this small place.

Blood splattered five steps, disemboweled, and the head was separated...... In such a small place, the situation of blood, limbs, and internal organs flying all over the sky seemed to be extra permeating. Compared with the rushing and killing of thousands of troops and horses on a large battlefield, in such a narrow battlefield, the fighting between the two armies has a different kind of tragic atmosphere.

A group of people was cut down, and then another group of people were cut down, and then ...... The sergeants suddenly found themselves unable to cut down the enemy soldiers......

Why?

Before you know it...... The corpses were already piled all over the place, and it was difficult for him to move, let alone kill the enemy.

Although the battle has not been many casualties on both sides so far, the combined casualties of the two armies are estimated to be less than 300 people. However, in this narrow urn city, the corpses of three hundred people were still piled up everywhere, making it difficult for people to move an inch.

At this time, Cao Ren suddenly found that the effect of facing the enemy in the urn city seemed to be even better than he imagined. Blocked by corpses, the enemy's attack will inevitably slow down, while the own army will be able to hold out longer.

Zhou Yu also saw that the self-army was obviously hindered at this time, so he thought about it and understood the reason after a little thought.

It seems that if you insist on storming the city, although you will definitely be able to conquer Xuchang, it will still be too troublesome after all, and it seems that you have to think of some other way.

"My lord, remove all the soldiers, we can attack with fire." Zhou Yu had already come up with a plan just by turning in his head. In the narrow terrain of the Urn City, under the premise that the city gate was already under the control of its own army, it was a natural decision to use fire attack.

"Hmm." Sun Jian bowed slightly, approving Zhou Yu's offer.

"What? The enemy troops withdrew? Why? Just as Cao Ren was still thinking about what to do next, he suddenly saw Sun Jianjun in the urn city quickly retreating to the rear, and in the blink of an eye, he retreated cleanly.

Zhou Yu will never let himself go for no reason, there must be some trickery in this.

"Not good!" A thought suddenly crossed Cao Ren's mind, making him shocked.

Fire Attack! The enemy definitely wants to go on fire!

It must be so! The total size of the urn city is so small, if you set it on fire, there will be absolutely no place for your thousand people to escape, and the only result will be a pile of barbecue.

Fight your way out of the Urn City? That's also death.

However, it seems that it is much better to be hacked to death by the sword of the enemy than to be burned alive by fire.

"Brothers, the enemy wants to set us on fire, so let's go out and fight them!" Cao Ren shouted at the soldiers. Now there is no other way but to kill!

If you don't want to fight, then wait to be burned alive in the urn city.

Hacked to death by a sword or burned to death by fire, choose one or the other, I'm afraid no one will choose the latter. Being burned to death by fire was extremely painful, and almost every corpse that was burned to death was deformed and curled up in shape, which was unbearable to see.

Cao Ren took the lead and rushed to the front of the whole army.

A thousand people followed, rushing out of the urn city.

On the outskirts of the urn city, Sun Jianjun's soldiers were about to light a fire, only to see Cao Ren suddenly stride out and stab him with a shot.

"Kill!" It's all reached this point, if you can kill one, you can earn one, and you can't care about the others anymore!

"Kill!" The soldiers of the Cao army rushed to Sun Jian's army in front of them with the mentality that they would even pull a dismount if they died.

"Huh?" Seeing Cao Ren leading the troops out, Zhou Yu was slightly stunned, and then couldn't help but express his admiration for this enemy general again.

The city was lost and immediately retreated into the urn city, and at this time, when he saw the self-army withdrawing from the urn city, he immediately guessed his intention to attack, this Cao Ren is definitely a good general in the world.

It's a pity, he is Cao Cao's brother, and he belongs to a person who is absolutely impossible to subdue, otherwise he would really want to persuade Sun Jian to try to take him into his account.

"Surround them, kill them, and capture this Xuchang City!" Sun Jian looked at the battlefield in front of him and ordered.

With his own army of 26,000, it will take a pillar of incense at most to kill these 1,000 enemy troops. In other words, after a stick of incense, Xuchang City is his own!

Sun Jian finally couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart, and the color of joy spread across his face.

These thousand people are just ordinary city guards, not as elite as the trapped camp, even if the trapped camp is here, under the difference of more than 20 times the number, it will definitely not last long.

Although these more than 1,000 people all fought with Sun Jianjun with the intention of dying, it didn't take long for them to be slaughtered quickly. Now in the battlefield, only Cao Ren and a dozen of his own soldiers are still resisting.
