At this time, if the city gate is opened and the enemy army rushes into the city, will it not be captured?

On the ninth day, Huang Quan couldn't stand it even more, because these small dirt slopes were constantly moving closer to the city wall like a moving Great Wall, growing taller! The result is that both the enemy and the enemy are on equal heights!

In this way, when the two sides attack, although the defender has the cover of the arrows of the city wall, the attacker has a catapult to press the formation. If the infantry attacked the city and the archers on both sides fired at each other, there would be a situation where the probability of casualties was similar, which Huang Quan could not afford. And once this catapult is replaced with ***, there will be a large area of buildings burning, and the panic of the people in the city will spread rapidly.

But what is strange to Huang Quan is that Liu Cong has been holding back and has not fully used the advantages of siege equipment to attack the city. Only catapults and archers. At the beginning, there was a day of onslaught, and in the past few days, not even the ram and ladder have appeared. Huang Quan didn't know that this Liu Cong was really reluctant to cripple Chengdu. In the land of the four battles in Xiangyang, once there is an accident, you can also escape to Chengdu and entangle with Cao Cao and Sun Quan with geographical advantages.

The most unacceptable thing for Huang Quan was that Zhang Lu and Ma Chao did not move at all. This Liu Cong has besieged the city for more than ten days, plus the time he stayed in the city before, it is enough for the two princes to fully prepare, especially Zhang Lu, who is separated from Shuzhong. Huang Quan judged before that according to the current situation and past style of these two people, they would never let go of such an opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

That Ma Chao was forced by Cao Cao* to be anxious, and felt that the time was ripe, so he resolutely raised the anti-flag regardless of the safety of his father and brother. Now Yizhou is a battle between the two Liu, and wars are raging. Even if Liu Zhang is no longer the Yizhou Mu, it will not affect the motivation of both of them to send troops. The scouts sent out by Huang Quan at night did not come back to report the news, I don't know if there was no news, or they were intercepted on the road.

Huang Quan was only anxious at the moment, but he was glad that Liu Cong did not launch a full-scale attack. If it blooms on all sides, the city must be very chaotic, plus Liu Zhang has already surrendered, and the army is disheartened, it is definitely not the opponent of Jingzhou soldiers.

And to Liu Cong's same surprise, Huang Quan's heart is strong, and he is obviously calmer than Liu Zhang under such great pressure. And the civil strife that Liu Cong hoped for has not appeared, which shows that Huang Quan's ability to control it is still good.

Is it really a four-door attack? Then the people of the city will be in trouble.

This is really not what Liu Cong wants, but according to the development of this situation, Liu Cong has to choose this way. The summer grain harvest is imminent, and if you don't capture Chengdu and pacify Yizhou before then, you will miss the summer harvest and autumn planting, which may mean losing a year for the hegemon.

Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, Zhang Ren and others in the camp were also helpless, if they fought in the wilderness, they could still charge.

"My lord, Mr. Fa has a letter!" Fa Zheng was responsible for the siege of the West Gate, and took into account the scheming to divide the people of Chengdu, so since he went to the West Gate, he was not summoned by Liu Cong, and he has been holding his position. In case of trouble, he sent a herald, and occasionally used letters.

Hearing that Fa Zheng had a letter, Liu Cong hurriedly took the letter and looked at it seriously.

Fa Zheng said in the letter that the lord is a clear guide, this Huang Quan is stubborn by nature, and regards the lord's benevolence and righteousness as weakness, and he is afraid that he will continue to resist stubbornly. Today, many people gather at the West Gate every day, but they are never allowed to go out. He is begging the Lord to send two catapults to attack Simon while there are many people...... In this way, Chengdu will be chaotic!

What a Fa Zheng!

After Liu Cong read it, he forwarded the letter to Zhuge Liang, and Zhuge Liang also frowned.

I have to say that Fazheng's strategy is very cruel to the people in the city, and it is not what Liu Cong wants. But once there are casualties, the people of Chengdu will definitely panic even more, because Huang Quan will never open the city gate.

Then the common people will resent Huang Quan and Liu Cong at the same time, and even more people will resent Huang Quan. Especially those people of insight, Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang has surrendered, Yizhou celebrities Xu Jing and Pang Xi have also surrendered, the previous unknown young general Huang Quan, what are you resisting? What is the intention? There is also the fact that Liu Cong only symbolically attacked the East Gate for several days, so that the other people close to the Third Gate naturally understood that this was a mercy on the part of his subordinates.

"Lord, although this law is good, after the city is broken, the people of Chengdu resent the lord. Liang thought that now Huang Quan was already a trapped beast, so it was better to surround the three and let him escape......"

The city is generally divided into four sides, and when a famous general attacks the city, it is generally not surrounded on all sides, but leaves a gap. This is because if you are surrounded on all sides and leave no room to escape, the enemy will fight to the death, and it will be difficult to succeed if the gains outweigh the losses. If there is a gap, there is a possibility that the enemy will escape, and it is likely that he will not try his best to defend the city but abandon the city and flee, so that the remnants of the enemy can be pursued.

The siege of the three ques is a common practice in the siege of the city in the era of cold weapons. However, that was also for the early stage of the battle. Now Huang Quan has made up his mind to stick to it, and there is not much place to escape from this Yizhou. Even if Liu Cong used Wai San Que Yi at the beginning, Huang Quan would definitely not flee.

However, now that the siege has been several days, the people in the city are panicking, and the officers and men in the army are estimated to have loosened......

Liu Cong pondered for a while and then suddenly raised his head.

"Zhang Ren listens to orders!"

"The last general!"

"Let you quickly bring 3,000 elite soldiers, four catapults to support Ximen, and the specific actions are subject to Xiaozhi's arrangement!"

"The lord ......" Zhang Ren is a native of Yizhou in the end, Liu Cong discussed with Zhuge Liang before, and he listened to a rough idea. So when he heard that he was going to bombard the people of Ximen with a stone cart, he still hesitated, hoping that Liu Cong would be patient and continue to fight for the cultural attack.

"General Zhang, this is also a helpless move, rest assured, this general knows it! The indiscriminate killing of innocent people is not the work of the general! After you arrived, everything was arranged by filial piety. Liu Cong knew that Fazheng's strategies were often a bit extreme, but the effect was very obvious. Xidoumen flooded Zhang Ren, and the suburbs of Chengdu forcibly collected grain and grass, which one did not take the risk. Since ancient times, there have been very few solutions exhausted, and the current method of correcting the Fa is the best.

"No!" Zhang Ren immediately received the order.

"Someone, pass on my order: order the soldiers besieging the south gate to retreat five miles and ambush them to the west of the avenue."

The herald went down immediately. Zhuge Liang smiled slightly on the side, the lord is going to use both strategies and prepare to launch the final general attack.

Just as he was happy, Liu Cong spoke again, "Kong Ming, I will work hard for you next, you take three thousand soldiers and horses to the east of the avenue to ambush, you must not let go of that Huang Quan, this person is ambitious, once he escapes, the air will be in chaos in Nanzhong!" ”

"Liang understands!" Zhuge Liang is good at politics and weapons. But in this troubled world, who doesn't want to lead the army to fight and make meritorious contributions?

When Zhuge Liang first came out of the mountain to assist Liu Cong, he never thought that Liu Cong would come in person in battle, but he was full of economy but rarely had the opportunity to fight. This time, he finally became a coach in Shu. But after arriving in the city, he became his own butler and advisor with peace of mind. This didn't wait until now Liu Cong seemed to remember that Zhuge Liang could also lead the army, although it was only an ambush, it was very likely to catch the enemy's leader, and Zhuge Liang naturally did not dare to slack off.

After the distribution was completed, Liu Cong asked Liao Hua to watch Liu Zhang and the others, and he and Zhao Yun led the rest of the soldiers to the east gate together.

Huang Zhong and Yu Ban saw Liu Cong leading the team to come, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Lord, what is this?" ”

"Pass the order, and in an hour, the whole army will storm!"

"Yes!" Huang Zhong is a military general, and he doesn't think as much as Liu Cong, Zhuge Liang, and Fa Zheng. The army lasted for more than ten days without pain, he couldn't hold it back for a long time, and he wanted to fight happily! This order is the spirit, and now return to his front camp, pass the order, and let the soldiers sharpen their knives and guns.

In Chengdu, Huang Quan and several other major generals also kept an eye on the movements of the enemy forces outside the city. After all, the two sides have been in a stalemate for so long, and the preparations that should be made are almost complete, and a decisive battle may be ushered in at any time, so despite being physically and mentally exhausted, Huang Quan still persevered in the fighting spirit.

"Report, report to the general, Ximen has gathered thousands of people, wanting to flee Chengdu!"

"Resist, give me all the resistance. Tell the people that Liu Cong will withdraw his troops soon, so that they can rest easy. In addition, porridge sheds were immediately opened in the middle of the city to the people whose houses in the eastern part of the city had been destroyed. ”

"Report ...... General, the enemy army at the west gate began to attack the city. There were four catapults, all of which threw *** and light stones into the city, injuring dozens of people, and some houses were on fire......"

"Hold on, evacuate the people quickly!" Hearing that the enemy army was attacking Ximen with catapults, Huang Quan's face turned green.

Although he has always been mentally prepared, at present, the people of Chengdu know that it is Fa Zheng who is responsible for the siege of the West Gate, and it is safest to go out from the West Gate. But now, the besieging forces have lost patience and have begun to siege the city. This time, it is not Liu Cong who the people resent, but his Huang Quan. He is the one who keeps the people out of the city!

"Report to the general, the enemy army at the south gate suddenly withdrew for some reason......"

"South Gate? Is it one of the three rounds? Huang Quan muttered to himself after hearing this, and suddenly stood up: "Strictly block the news, don't let the other three generals know!" ”

Huang Quan is familiar with military books, so he naturally knows the strategy of encircling three queyi, which is to shake his military spirit. But if some timid people hear that the south gate can run, they will definitely slip away! So you can block for as long as you want.

……

"Report, report to the general, the enemy is attacking the east gate!"

"Huh? Is it still the same as usual? ”

"No, there are a lot of people, a city hammer, and countless ladders!"

"Come with me!" Most of Huang Quan stepped out and ran directly to the East City Gate, where Liu Cong had been engaged in civil construction for several days outside the East City Gate. At this moment, Huang Quan is in full attack, Huang Quan knows that this time it is true!

When Huang Quan stood on the tower of the East Gate again, the four small dirt slopes outside the city were already full of enemy troops, and several catapults continued to throw stones at the city wall and the urn city. And at the foot of the city wall, countless enemy troops are pushing the city hammer in an orderly manner, and the ladder is moving forward in the rain of arrows!

"Soldiers, cheer up and follow me to repel the enemy's attack!" Huang Quan drew his sword and pointed out the city. He knew that no matter what, he had to withstand this wave first, whether it was war or peace, and he could only talk about it later. And since the enemy has decided to attack, Huang Quan can't find anyone even if he wants to negotiate at this moment!
