Zhang Ming had 25,000 troops in western Liaoxi, including 10,000 cavalry led by Guan Yu, 5,000 infantry led by Xu Rong, and 10,000 cavalry led by himself.

In Youbeiping, there were 30,000 troops of Gongsun Zan in the city to defend, which was more than Zhang Ming's entire army.

"Big brother, there are 30,000 troops in Youbeiping, and it can't be broken in a short time." Guan Yu said.

With an army of 30,000, it is indeed difficult to break.

Zhang Ming said: "Then don't attack first, let Linzi City fight first, and we will find an opportunity." ”

Soon, a month passed, there was no fight outside Linzi City, and Youzhou was also very calm.

But that calm soon erupted.

Gongsun Chan listened to the advice of Yuan Shao's side and besieged it for a month.

Although there was no war this month, Gongsun Chan and the others have been actively preparing.

A lot of siege equipment was built, and everything was prepared.

The time of the month has finally arrived.

"Soldiers, Linzi has become an isolated city, and we will definitely break through the city within ten days."

"Kill."

Gongsun Chan ordered an attack, and tens of thousands of troops began to attack.

The onslaught on Linzi City, in this month, Linzi City has become two meters taller.

Yes, the city was built directly with cement, which was raised by two meters.

It was completed half a month ago, and the cement was also dry by this time.

It was built in front of them, and Gongsun Chan couldn't help but want to attack several times, but in the end he endured it.

The onslaught began, and fierce clashes broke out on both sides.

The army under the city, the morale is very high, they besieged for a month, the army besieged, facing the lonely city.

It's a very understandable situation, and it's easy to win.

That's what they think, so morale will be so high.

After a day of onslaught, Gongsun Chan was on their side, with high morale and fierce attacks.

The day passed, and the morale was available.

At night, the attack was stopped, and Gongsun Chan specially called Gongsun Fan.

"How are Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses?"

Gongsun Fan reported and said: "Big brother, this Yuan Shao's army is really hardworking, a little worse than us, but it is understandable, after all, they are not fighting for themselves." ”

Gongsun Chan had always been afraid that Yuan Shao's army would paddle here, but it didn't, they attacked very hard.

Yan Liang and Gao Ran took turns to lead their troops to attack, as if it was theirs who defeated Linzi City.

Inside Yan Liang's big tent, Gao Ran and Xu Yu were also there at this time.

Yan Liang said: "Sir, if we continue to fight like this, when the city is broken, our army may also be exhausted." ”

"It doesn't matter if it's gone." Xu You took a sip of tea, tasted the product and said: "This battle, can buy us time, we have vigorously expanded our armaments and trained the army, we have been besieged here for a month, and at the beginning we have recruited 70,000 soldiers and horses in various places, and now we have started training, as long as we can hold on for three months, train for three months, and when the time comes, when Gongsun Chan wins, the original army can also be killed." ”

Yan Liang and Gao Ran felt a little better at this time, after all, it was their soldiers who died.

Each of the three parties has its own plan.

A new day begins.

Xi Zhicai said to Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei, and Xu Huang: "Gongsun Zhan and they will attack for three days at most, and then we will reduce the intensity. ”

On the new day, Gongsun Chan and they were still attacking, and Xi Zhicai and they were defending with all their might, paying a lot of price.

On the third day, it began again, with the same fierce attack.

After three days of onslaught, more than 3,000 casualties were paid in Linzi City.

And Gongsun Chan is at least twice as much as them, if not more.

From the fourth day onwards, Gongsun Chan and the others were unable to maintain such an intensity of attack.

And Xi Zhicai began to pay attention to reducing casualties, so that soldiers could protect themselves well, and effectively reduced casualties.

The two sides began a tug-of-war.

Ten days after the start of the attack, the city was still firmly in the hands of Xi Zhicai.

Gongsun Zhan and they paid the price of 10,000 people, but they still did not break through the city.

Ten days of rhetoric, just to boost morale, although very effective, but at this time the soldiers are sluggish.

"Big brother, it's better to rest for three days and attack again."

The ten-day period has arrived, and the soldiers must be given a rest and morale.

Gongsun Chan ordered a rest, and then asked the generals to go to the various armies to pacify the soldiers and restore the morale of the soldiers.

During the break, the opera in the city also held a meeting.

At this time, everything in the city was under the command of Xi Zhicai.

"Everyone, the next attack, we will start to implement the plan, Gongming pay attention to preparation, the two generals Zilong and Yide, kill out of the city, this time to kill and injure the enemy, pay attention to the order."

Zhang Fei rubbed his hands, very excited.

The three said they understood.

Gongsun Chan rested for three days, his morale recovered, and then he and Yuan's army began to attack again.

Yuan Shao's 10,000 troops, there are still more than 7,000 at this time, and they are still very hard.

Gongsun Chan's army had been adjusted, and their morale had recovered a lot.

Tens of thousands of troops, again in formation.

Gongsun Chan did not rush to attack, but fought under the city.

"The defenders in the city, you and others have become lone troops, and Liaodong has also been attacked by our 100,000 allied troops, and they have not quickly opened the city to surrender to save their lives."

Gongsun Chan sent someone to shout.

In the city, Xi Zhicai, Zhao Yun, Zhang Fei and Xu Huang are all there.

Xi Zhicai smiled easily, and then took out the megaphone left by Zhang Ming and shouted: "General Gongsun, even if you attack, I am afraid that when you take the city, you will suffer heavy losses, Yuan Shao has already grown in wings, and then it will be time for me and Yuan Shao to attack you." ”

Xi Zhi knew that Gongsun Zhan just thought that they were incomprehensible and bluffed.

Gongsun Zhan vomited blood when he heard this, he also knew that Yuan Shao wanted to take the opportunity to expand his strength, but he didn't think that Yuan Shao would be able to expand his strength in a short period of time.

And Gongsun Chan has always thought that it will be easy to lay down a lonely city.

"Attack."

Gongsun Chan knew that persuasion was ineffective and he couldn't continue to talk nonsense.

Ordered to attack.

The army began to storm and the city was defending quite hard, but soon, they began to slowly feel that they could not hold on.

Gongsun Chan was overjoyed and once again ordered a part of the army to join the attack.

"Hahaha, the city can be broken overnight, continue to attack."

Gongsun Chan didn't suspect anything, thinking that his previous words had an effect.

After all, it is a lonely city, without support, surrounded by a large army, and there is only one fate.

And inside the city, Xi Zhicai ordered the army to retreat.

At first, half of the people were retreated, and the pressure on the city's defenses immediately increased.

After retreating for half an hour, Xi Zhi ordered the retreat of half of the people again, and then said to Xu Huang: "You can go and destroy the city wall." ”

A group of people began to destroy the walls.

"Destroying the walls?"

Yes, this is what Xi Zhicai has calculated a long time ago, and it is true that they will destroy the city wall.

Underneath the city walls, there is a layer of hollow space that can accommodate a person to bend over.

However, these hollow areas are supported by dense wooden piles, and at this time some of the wooden piles have been cracked under tremendous pressure.

At this time, a group of people went in and cut down the stake directly with their knives.

The four walls of the city began to be cleared, and the wooden stakes were cleared.
