Chapter 655: Madness
"Pak~"
In the empty tent, the wine buds in Cao Shuang's hands fell to the ground, and the warm wine splashed on the ground, but Cao Shuang seemed to be unconscious, looking at the embarrassed general in front of him, and there were bloodshot on his tired eyeballs, and the whole person was like a beast that chose people to devour.
"What did you say!?" For a long time, the hoarse and suppressed voice echoed in the empty tent, low, but it made people feel uncontrollable fear.
"General, the city father was attacked by the Han army, most of the grain and grass in the city were burned, and Xiahou Xuan, the general of Zhengnan, died in the city!" Wei lowered his head.
Puff~
Cao Shuang seemed to have lost all his strength and sat on the ground weakly.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, let Xiahou Xuan personally sit in the town, gather heavy troops, in order to prevent the Han army from discovering, during this period of time, Cao Shuang has formulated dozens of grain routes to confuse the Han army, thinking that it is foolproof, who would have thought that it would be found by the Han army in the end, and break through in one fell swoop!
Once the grain and grass are lost, the morale of the army will be chaotic! How can this battle be fought?
"General?" That Wei Jiang saw that Cao Shuang didn't speak for a long time, and when he looked up, he saw Cao Shuang sitting on the ground in a daze, as if he was stupid, and couldn't help but call softly.
"How much grass is left!?" Cao Shuang raised his head and looked at General Wei and asked.
"Because of a heavy snowfall, and the surrounding garrisons found that something was wrong and rushed to help, some were rescued, but the remaining grain and grass can last for a month at most!" General Wei bowed and said.
"January!?" Cao Shuang sat on the ground, leaning on the tent weakly, and said for a long time: "Send someone to Guangling to inform the Wu army that our army's grain and grass have been burned, and it can only support half a month, and I want to attack Liu Cheng's department with all my strength, hoping that the Wu army can contain Pang Tong for us!" ”
Rather than waiting for the three armies to be defeated when the grain and grass are exhausted, so that the Han army can be unimpeded, it is better to take a dangerous fight and try his best to destroy the Han army first, even if the Han army wins in the end, it is a tragic victory, and it is powerless to plot the Central Plains.
"Governor, why don't you join forces with Wu Jun and break Pang Tong first?" A general bowed to Cao Shuang and asked.
"Pang Tong is the wise man of the world, and he holds the main force of the Han army." Cao Shuang shook his head and said: "Besides, Lu Xun may not really join forces with our army to attack Pang Tong, it is better to break Liu Cheng first, cut off Pang Tong's arm, if it goes well, there is still strength left after destroying Liu Cheng, and then he will fight a decisive battle with Pang Tong." ”
In addition, fighting to the death can also reduce the consumption of some grain and grass, and maybe it can last for a few more months, but if this is said, it will be too cruel.
"Whoa!" General Wei said yes and turned to leave.
Cao Shuang began to quickly gather troops and horses, preparing to gather troops and destroy Liu Cheng all the way.
……
On the other side, after Guan Xing led the army to defeat several Wei troops who came to block the road, when he returned to Qiutou, he saw that the army was building a large number of buildings, not only building a layer of wooden walls, but even protecting them with bricks and stones on both sides, and pouring cement in the middle, which was the rhythm of building a city!
Guan Xing handed over the general order, came to the construction site and found Liu Cheng, who was supervising the construction of the city wall against the drawings, and asked suspiciously: "Zixin, what is this for?" ”
"There's heavy snow in the direction of the city father." Liu Cheng didn't explain much, but replied lightly.
"Yes, it started to burn not long ago, but the fire was huge, and the heavy snow did not stop the fire, but burned more and more!" Guan Xing said with a smile.
"This snow will rain for three days in a row!" Liu Cheng looked at the weather and frowned.
Belch...... What's at stake?
Guan Xing knows that Liu Cheng is proficient in astronomy and geography and can predict the weather, but what does this have to do with your city?
"The grain and grass of the Wei army will not be burned out, and some of it can be left." Liu Cheng glanced at Guan Xing and patiently explained: "Cao Jun will not be defeated now, what if you are Cao Shuang?" ”
"While the food and grass are still running, fight to the death!?" Guan Xing reacted, of course Cao Shuang can also retreat, but at the moment, Pang Tong and Liu Cheng are on the side, and Wei Yan is making wind and rain in the rear, this retreat, Pang Tong and Liu Cheng will definitely take advantage of the situation to bite, Wei Yan will also wait for the opportunity to move, when the time comes, Cao Shuang's situation will be even worse, he will be trapped alive, rather than this, it is better to fight against the water, while there is still some military food, first cripple all the way, can save military food expenses.
"At this time, the Wei army will inevitably go crazy when it fights, if we meet the enemy head-on, even if we can win, the losses will inevitably be heavy, and it is in the hands of Cao Shuang, it is better to stick to the camp and defend ourselves." Liu Cheng nodded and said: "After Cao Shuang's sharp spirit is consumed, General Wei Yan's soldiers and horses should be able to kill, and then the morale of the Wei army has been discharged, and it is just the right time to defend and attack, and the Wei army will be defeated by attacking from both sides!" ”
"No, Zixin, you didn't expect there to be snow in advance?" Guan Xing couldn't help but ask.
"The little brother is a human, not an immortal!" Liu Cheng looked at Guan Xing speechlessly, he understands the celestial phenomena well, but to predict accurately, it is only half a day at most, it is really calculated a few days in advance, only those near the big solar terms can, at this ordinary time, Liu Cheng is not so accurate, I am afraid that only immortals can do this kind of thing, right?
When Guan Xing heard this, he smiled, stopped talking, and began to help Liu Cheng expand the camp and the defense line.
This time, the camp designed by Liu Cheng was mainly defensive, and in addition to consolidating the defense, a large number of traps were also set up on the periphery to prevent the Wei army from easily approaching the wall.
seems to be in response to what Liu Cheng said, almost the day after Guan Xing returned, Cao Shuang led a large army to kill.
Unlike in the past, this time, the Wei army's attack was extremely crazy, and Cao Shuang divided his soldiers and horses into four routes, each of which was divided into ten teams, and attacked day and night, day and night.
In order to avoid the retreat of the soldiers, Cao Shuang specially set up four supervision teams, cowardly, those who retreated from the battle, immediately killed, no mercy, this time the number of supervision teams is extraordinarily large, the Wei army is like crazy with the strong bow and crossbow of the Han army crazy attack camp, even if Liu Cheng set up a strong camp, it was still broken by the Wei army's crazy attack like a fatality in several places, but in three days, the outer wall was completely lost, but the inner wall was stronger after three days of continuous reinforcement, even if the Wei army attacked wildly, it was difficult to shake.
"Cao Shuang is crazy!" For three consecutive days, the Wei army finally stopped, Guan Xing came down from the city wall, poured a mouthful of warm water fiercely, and gasped: "I feel that the outer wall is flattened with the corpses of the Wei army!" ”
"He's not crazy!" The air was filled with a thick smell of blood, even if the door was closed, it could still seep in, Liu Cheng sighed and said: "He just has no way to retreat, he has to make a desperate bet." ”
Picking up the wine on the table, Liu Cheng handed it to Guan Xing and said, "If you keep it for three more days, we will win!" ”
"I always felt that the Wei army was vulnerable, but today's battle ......" Guan Xing smacked his lips and said with a wry smile: "If this person fights hard, it will be really terrifying!" ”
One husband is desperate, ten thousand people can't stop him, Cao Shuang is the commander of the three armies, if he is determined to fight hard, it will be full of blood!
Today's Qiutou camp is more like a corpse city, with corpses on all sides, the Wei army, the Han army, and the fighting between the two sides has not been interrupted at all in the past three days.
The Han army is well-equipped and has sharp weapons, but it can't stand the Wei army's many and don't want to die, that crazy energy, even Guan Xing, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, is a little cold, even if it is the Han army, it is still a little frightened to be killed.
"Do you know how many teams Cao Shuang has sent?" Guan Xing looked at Liu Cheng and said: "I dare to guarantee that in the past three days, more Wei troops have died in the hands of the Wei army commander than in the Wei army under the city, and our soldiers are going crazy." ”
"Woo woo woo~" A horn sounded in the distance, it was Wei Jun's.
"Damn it!" Guan Xing's eyes were red, and he picked up the big knife with the blade and was about to leave, but was stopped by Liu Cheng.
"You rest for a while, and General Liao Hua will defend the city tonight!" Liu Cheng frowned and looked at Guan Xing, Guan Xing has not slept for three consecutive days, and his current state is a little unstable, if it goes on like this, Cao Shuang is crazy or not Liu Cheng doesn't know, but Guan Xing is afraid that he will go crazy first!
"Those are my brothers, I have been with me from birth to death for so many years, I can't ......" Guan Xing turned his head and roared at Liu Cheng.
"You have to be able to, you are a general, so you must be able to!" Liu Cheng stretched out his hand to hold down Guan Xing, his strength was surprisingly great, and it was difficult for a general like Guan Xing to break free.
"Our people have died so much, you are not in a hurry at all?" Guan Xing looked at Liu Cheng and said.
"You're tired, you must rest!" Liu Cheng looked at Guan Xing, and his tone was bland and chilling.
"Heh~" Guan Xing sneered: "You are better than me, maybe better than Sikong, but you have no feelings!" ”
Shaking off Liu Cheng, Guan Xing turned around and left.
"Bang~" Liu Cheng grabbed the table and smashed it on Guan Xing's head, directly smashing Guan Xing unconscious.
looked at Guan Xing, who had fainted on the ground with a somewhat complicated gaze, and said to the stunned guards on the side: "Go and ask for a military doctor, he just fainted." ”
"Whoa!" The guards agreed with some trepidation, turned around and left, although Liu Cheng didn't have much expression as before, but today's Liu Cheng seemed to be particularly terrifying.
Soon, the military doctor came over to help Guan Xing check and said to Liu Cheng: "It's just a skin injury, excessive exhaustion and an external impact that made him unconscious." ”
"Good life care." Liu Cheng nodded, he naturally made a measured move.
"Whoa!" The military doctor didn't dare to say much, and after saluting Liu Cheng, he ordered someone to carry Guan Xing away.
"General, Anguo ......" Liao Hua came in and saluted Liu Cheng, he heard that Guan Xing was beaten, and hurriedly came over, at this time, there can be no discord between the generals and the commanders.
"Passed out, he needs to rest." Liu Cheng didn't explain much, looked at Liao Hua and said: "Tonight's garrison, please ask General Liao to bother, this kind of offensive of the Wei army can't last too long, and now it's the limit, it depends on which of us can hold out to the end, who is the winner." ”
"Whoa!" Liao Hua nodded, and only after making sure that Guan Xing was in no major trouble did he breathe a sigh of relief, bowed down and retreated to organize the defense, there were not many soldiers and horses that could be used in the city, but there was no way to defend the city in ten waves like the Wei army, and now he could only resist!
