Chapter 76: Chaos
"Xun Yu, surrender Kaicheng!"
Outside the city of Xuchang, Lu Bu's army pressed the border.
"Lu Bu, if you attack my Yanzhou and kill my Yanzhou soldiers, you can know the consequences!"
Xun Yu shouted angrily.
"What consequences? Naturally, a certain person took Yanzhou, and Cao Cao became a lost dog. ”
Lu Bu said proudly that when Cao Cao escaped from him, causing the later princes of the Eighteenth Route to crusade against Dong Zhuo, this matter has always been a pain in his heart.
He always hated Cao Cao in his heart, so when he lost and Chen Gong proposed to attack Yanzhou, he decisively agreed.
"Lu Bu, it's just wishful thinking to want a certain Kaecheng to surrender!"
How could Xun Yu surrender to Lu Bu, you must know that he is the most disdainful of people like Lu Bu.
"Xun Yu, I have heard that you are loyal for a long time, and when I see you today, it is really better to be famous than to meet!"
At this moment, Chen Gong mocked Xun Yu at the head of the city.
"Chen Gong, I know you, and the lord praises you a lot, but I don't know why you want to take refuge in this Lu Bu."
Xun Yu replied bitterly.
"Wen Hou is the Wen Hou of His Majesty, killing Dong Zhuo Kuang Fu Han Room, who does not follow Wen Hou, can it be that he follows the unkind and unrighteous Cao A, Lu Bohao's family kindly took him in, and even killed chickens and sheep to entertain him, but he Cao A hid it, but killed Lu Bohao's family with a sword, so unkind and unjust, ungrateful, how can I Chen Gong follow."
When Chen Gong talked about this incident, his emotions suddenly rose.
"Xun Yu, why follow Cao Cao, a traitorous villain, why don't you help someone to kill back to Chang'an and assist Your Majesty."
Lu Bu spoke at the right time.
"You don't know how the wolf is ambitious, if you want to fight, then fight, if you can kill it, then it is your ability."
Xun Yu was not moved at all.
"Xun Yu, don't know what to do!"
Lu Bu was furious.
"With such a heart, you can achieve great things, Lu Bu, you have already seen the result."
After finishing speaking, Xun Yu looked up to the sky and laughed.
"The three family slaves, if you want to fight, you will fight, don't delay time."
At the head of the city, the majestic sea was drinking, and the rough voice was heard clearly inside and outside the city.
"Three family slaves, come to fight!"
The defenders of the city shouted in unison.
"The whole army obeys the order and attacks the city!"
Lu Bu was furious.
"Soldiers, kill!"
Zhang Liao drew his sword and shouted, took over the command of Lu Bu in an instant, and became the leader in commanding this siege battle.
Lü Bu and his generals are all brave and good at fighting, but they are all generals on horseback, except for Zhang Liao, the rest are not good at siege warfare.
Arrows flew towards Xuchang City, and in an instant, the defenders at the head of the city were traumatized.
"Wen Ruo, you leave first, and the defense of the city will be handed over to so-and-so!"
At the head of the city, Xiahou Yuan escorted Xun Yu to leave the city, for Xun Yu, a literati, the city wall was undoubtedly extremely dangerous.
"Miaocai, you must stabilize the situation, save arrows as much as possible, don't fight them head-on, and let the soldiers protect their own safety with the help of the city wall......"
Xun Yu did not refuse Xiahou Yuan, and while going down the city wall, he was also telling Xiahou Yuan.
"Wen Ruo rest assured, Xiahou Yuan will definitely defend Xuchang City."
Xiahou Yuan promised Xun Yu.
"I'll wait!"
Xun Yu nodded.
Xun Yu's departure did not end the battle, and Lu Bu's soldiers and horses frantically flocked to the walls of Xuchang City.
Many of Lu Bu's subordinates were soldiers from Bingzhou, and in the big battle, they paid attention to speed, and the same was true of this siege battle, and in the blink of an eye, the first batch of soldiers had already rushed under the city wall in the rain of arrows.
Soon a series of ladders were set up on the tall city wall, and there were soldiers on the wall who tried to push the ladder away, but the brackets at the bottom of the ladder made it impossible for them to push it at all.
Of course, this process is extremely tragic, this section of distance does not seem to be long, but hundreds of corpses have been lying down.
Thunder stones and rolling logs continued to fall from the city wall, and many soldiers under the city wall were hit, and the moment they were hit, their heads were broken and bleeding, and they fell to the ground.
Lu Bu's soldiers are not without the ability to fight back, and their accurate archery skills continue to harvest the lives of the soldiers defending the city.
The fighting between the two sides is getting worse and worse.
"Boom!"
At this moment, there was a heavy knock on the gate of Xuchang City.
A group of soldiers came to the city gate with the help of the bumper wood, and slammed the city gate again and again.
"Boom!"
……
"Boom!"
At the head of the city, the defenders were naturally attracted by them, and they were soon targeted by the defenders, with thunder stones rolling and arrows constantly flying towards them.
Lieutenant General Lu Bujun held a wide shield and forcibly pressed the thunder stone on his head.
The bumper wood continued to bombard the city gates, but the shaking of the gates was indescribable.
Because behind this city gate were not soldiers, but stones and dirt, at the beginning Xun Yu had the mentality of defending the city wall, and the four city gates were almost completely blocked.
Not only is it difficult for the enemy to penetrate but also to rush out.
The battle continued, shouts of killing and screams continued to be heard, and countless soldiers fell.
……
At the same time, the battle in Xuzhou was also continuing, and Cao Cao had no idea that his base camp had been attacked by Lü Bu, and most of Yanzhou had been captured by Lü Bu.
"Lord, if it goes on like this, we can't afford it! There is not much food and grass, and there are not many medicinal herbs, but our wounded are increasing every day. ”
Cao Ren's face was extremely ugly, after nearly a month of fighting, they were already exhausted, although this battle was no longer a siege battle, but for the soldiers of Cao Jun, it was even more dangerous and more tragic.
"So what do you say?"
Cao Cao stared at Cao Ren with wide eyes.
"Lord, withdraw, there is no hurry to take revenge!"
Cao Ren admonished.
"Withdraw? You let a certain retreat now, you don't have to forget, how many soldiers died here in this battle, we have lost tens of thousands of soldiers, the war has been more than half a month, but now you let a certain retreat, Cao Ren, if it weren't for your surname Cao, with your words, a certain would have killed you! ”
Cao Cao pointed at Cao Ren's nose and cursed, belittleing Cao Ren to the extreme.
Cao Ren lowered his head, not daring to look at Cao Cao.
"Listen, Xuzhou must be taken!"
Cao Cao shouted angrily.
"The last general commands!"
Cao Ren yelled.
Cao Jun was uncomfortable, as opponents Liu Bei and Tao Qian were also uncomfortable, Liu Bei's 50,000 army had lost half of it, not only those who died in battle, but also those who fled, and the morale of the army was low to the bottom.
Tao Qian's soldiers and horses also lost more than half, and the people were panicked and frightened, all of them were worried about their own safety and death, and they were even more unbearable than Cao Jun.
……
"Lord, there's an urgent message from Wu County!"
On this day, Sun Ce received a letter from Wu Jun.
"I didn't expect Tao Qian to come to this hand!"
Sun Ce laughed and said, using women and finances as bargaining chips to invite himself to make a move, which not only solved the crisis in Xuzhou, but also owed less favors.
"Lord, do we want to intervene in the affairs of Xuzhou?"
Han Shizhong asked.
"Since Tao Qian invited, it's not bad to go to Xuzhou to have a look!"
