In this battle, the trapped camp lost a total of 806 people, and the Euphorbia lost a total of 791 people.

The losses on both sides were not insignificant, although the Euphorbia only sent 1,000 men to fight this time, but its total number was 3,000, so the loss of nearly 800 men did not form a fatal blow, but for the trapped camp, it really needed to be rebuilt.

Although in terms of the number of casualties, the trapped camp still killed more than a dozen people in the end than the Euphorbia, but from the perspective of the battle situation, no matter who can see that the trapped camp lost first and then won, and it was really the side that won in the end.

What's more, Zhang Heming's withdrawal of troops can be regarded as a statement of admitting defeat.

After this battle, the morale of Cao's army soared, while Yuan's army was demoralized.

If it is an easy victory, although the morale of Cao's army will rise, it may not rise as fast as it is now. It is precisely because this victory was not easy to come by that it is even more precious. At the beginning, the trapped camp was pressed and beaten by the halberds, and it was on the verge of defeat, but in the end, it fought hard and turned defeat into victory. Therefore, after seeing the trapped camp after such a vicious battle, the morale of the Cao army rose extremely large.

On Yuan Jun's side, seeing a victory that was supposed to be in hand but finally lost, the sense of loss was not to mention how uncomfortable it was. In addition, Yuan Shao actually wanted to behead the general Zhang He because of the defeat in the First World War, although in the end it failed because of the generals' advice, but this kind of chilling behavior still caused some damage to the morale of the army after all.

The battle ended in failure, and Yuan Shao stopped talking nonsense and let the whole army press on the attack. In the face of Yuan's mighty offensive, Cao Cao naturally led his army to resist to the death. Due to the low morale of Yuan's army and its unwillingness to fight, although the number of Cao's army was far inferior to that of the other party, it was also on par with it. In the end, after each side paid thousands of casualties, they actually stopped at the same time with a tacit understanding, and withdrew one after another to set up camp.

After that, the trend of the war was similar to the development of the original history, although Yuan Shao's army was strong, but Cao Cao had no choice but to defend the camp, and Yuan's army could not overcome it for a long time. Yuan Shao then listened to the advice of the trial, selected strong soldiers in each battalion, and came to Cao Cao's village together, using shovels and soil to build a mountain. At the same time, the judge personally led the archers to guard the choke point and prevent the Cao army from coming to destroy the construction matters. After the completion of fifty earthen mountains, Yuan Shao ordered the soldiers to build bows and oars on the earthen mountains, and ordered the crossbowmen to continuously fire arrows at the Cao camp below in the oars, bringing great damage to the soldiers in the Cao camp.

In the face of the enemy's fierce bow and arrow attack, Cao Cao's adviser Liu Ye rushed to build several catapults overnight, and when the Yuan archers shot arrows, Liu Ye ordered the soldiers to throw huge stones at them, resulting in countless casualties among the Yuan archers, so that no one dared to shoot arrows from the top of the mountain to Cao Ying below.

Seeing that the method of soil and mountains was invalid, he tried to dedicate a plan to dig tunnels, but when excavating, Cao Cao also observed, and in the end this plan was still fruitless.

The two armies confronted each other in Guandu, and in a blink of an eye, more than ten days passed, although the Yuan army maintained an overall advantage over Cao's army in the past ten days, but under the efforts of Cao Cao and his subordinates, they have never been able to achieve any brilliant results.

Although the battle situation was not very favorable to his side, in the face of such a disparity in strength, it was not easy to fight to this level, so the atmosphere in Cao's camp was not dignified.

However, half a month after the war between the two sides, a letter from Xuchang asking for help suddenly froze the atmosphere in Cao's camp into a freezing point.

The content of the letter was very simple, adding up to only a few sentences, but it set off a huge wave in Cao Ying.

"Sun Jian sent troops from Jiangxia, raised more than 70,000 troops, has conquered Wancheng, and the troops are approaching Xuchang, hoping to help quickly!"

Sun Jian moved! At this critical moment of the confrontation between Cao and Yuan, Sun Jian actually raised troops to the north.

As early as in the original history, the little overlord Sun Ce deliberately intervened when Yuan Cao was fighting and sent troops to attack Xuchang. It's a pity that before Sun Ce could raise his troops, he was ambushed by three of Xu Gong's disciples during a hunting trip, was seriously injured, and died not long after.

However, the current lord of Jiangdong is Sun Jian instead of Sun Ce, and although Sun Jian's personality is as strong as Sun Ce, he is not as frivolous and irritable as Sun Ce. In the process of unifying the Jiangdong clan, Sun Jian was both powerful and powerful, rather than blindly relying on killing alone. Although it is said that most of the Jiangdong Shi clan do not belong to Sun Jian as an outsider, and still adopt an attitude of yang and yin against him, there are not many people who clearly oppose Sun Jian, let alone anyone who will send assassins to assassinate Sun Jian.

Even if an assassin wanted to assassinate Sun Jian, it would be an extremely difficult task. After all, Sun Jian was surrounded by a lot of protection, and it was difficult to have a chance to start, and Sun Jian himself would not be like Sun Ce, who didn't take anyone with him when hunting, and ran to some remote place alone, giving the assassin a chance to do it in vain.

Although Jiangdong has not yet been completely pacified, it is generally under Sun Jian's control, and the only big problem is the turmoil of the Shanyue people. However, the two heroes in the north are fighting, this is the best opportunity for Sun Jian, and he doesn't want to miss the opportunity to win the world in vain because of the Shanyue incident. So after leaving some soldiers and horses under the command of the general He Qi to resist Shanyue, Sun Jian personally took command, with the eldest son Sun Ce and Zhonglang general Zhou Yu as the deputy marshal, and Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai and others as generals, raised 70,000 troops, starting from Jiangxia, which was occupied last year, and went north to attack Cao.

Under the onslaught of the Jiangdong army, Wancheng, the southern barrier of the Cao army, was quickly overcome. After capturing Wancheng, there were still 60,000 people left in the Jiangdong army, and they did not stop at the moment, and immediately went straight to Xuchang.

At this time, Xuchang's guards were Cao Ren, Xu Rong, Li Dian, and Yu Ban were deputies, and Xun Yu and Jia Xu were conspirators. However, although Cao Ren can be regarded as the top five generals under Cao Cao's account, Xu Rong, Li Dian, and Yu Ban are all good generals in the world, Xun Yu and Jia Xu are the top strategists, but they can't stand the Xuchang garrison with a total of less than 20,000! Besides, among the enemy army, Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai and others, which one of them is smaller than those Wenchen generals in Xuchang City?

Although Xuchang City is the current capital of the Han Dynasty, it was not originally a big city, but it was gradually repaired and expanded after welcoming the Son of Heaven. At this time, although Xuchang City has been built on a large scale, the strength of the city is still far from that of other strong cities in the world.

Therefore, 20,000 against 60,000, it is really difficult to hold Xuchang, and the situation is precarious!

At this time, Cao Cao was confronting Yuan Shao, and the original situation was not much better, but now Sun Jian inserted such a kick, which can be said to be even worse. If Xuchang City is unfortunately broken by Sun Jian, then Cao Cao's hard work and efforts over the years will be all in vain.

In that case, it will be a catastrophe!
