Chapter 1071: Those who have attained the Tao are more helpful
Wuyin County, outside the county seat. ***
The black-pressed army stood in formation, and the neat team exuded a domineering and majestic atmosphere. Under the scorching sun, the bright steel knife shook slightly in mid-air, revealing a heart-palpitating murderous aura.
"Kill! Kill! ……”
The soldiers outside the city raised their necks and roared with all their might, their eyes full of bloodthirsty light.
The lack of food in the army is a well-known thing in the Wei army.
The purpose of Cao Cao's attack on Wuyin County was also well understood by the Wei soldiers. If they want to have food to eat, they want meat to eat, and if they want to return home safely, they must conquer Wuyin County.
With a clear purpose, the soldiers were extremely excited.
"Boring! Boring!!! ”
The sharp sword slowly and rhythmically struck the shield with a snapping sound.
The roar of the sky and the sound of swords slapping shields sounded one after another, causing the defenders on the upper floors of the county town to feel tremendous pressure. This is the momentum of all the Wei soldiers, which makes the defenders of Wuyin County feel very depressed, and even out of breath. They looked at the soldiers outside the city, their faces pale and their expressions flickering, as if they were facing an ancient beast.
These defenders were soldiers from Wuyin County, not soldiers brought by Zhang Liao.
In their eyes, Cao Cao's soldiers were mighty and majestic.
Some of the defenders even thought that the army outside the city was invincible.
This is the psychological pressure created by Cao Cao's painstaking solitude.
Cao Cao looked at the situation on the city tower with great satisfaction, and slowly raised the sword in his hand. In an instant, all the sounds stopped, and there was silence inside and outside the city, and there was not a single sound.
Cao Cao smiled and shouted, "Where is Zhang Liao? ”
For Zhang Liao, Cao Cao had a certain impression.
In the past, Lu Bu led troops to attack Yanzhou, and Zhang Liao was among them, so Cao Cao had some impressions.
Zhang Liao held a nine-foot long knife in his hand, his head held high, his expression was cold, and he was full of majesty. Cao Cao's voice came, and Zhang Liao immediately replied: "Nanyang guards Zhang Liao here, what is the important matter of King Wei?" ”
Cao Cao flicked his sleeves and shouted: "This king led a large army to kill, and Wuyin County is already in danger. If this king wants to enter Wuyin County, it is only a matter of rebellion. If Zhang Taishou surrenders in Kaicheng, this Wang Qiu will not commit any crimes, and if Zhang Taishou does not surrender, this king will not be polite. ”
Zhang Liao shouted: "Cao Cao, you are just a defeated subordinate of my lord, but you are really shameless. You lost the battle in Xiangyang, but you ran to Wuyin County to show your teeth and claws, others are afraid of you, but I am not afraid of you. ”
Cao Cao's brows furrowed and he shouted; "Zhang Liao, have you figured it out?"
Cao Cao showed enough strength, but Zhang Liao was still stubborn, which made Cao Cao very unhappy. If Zhang Liao surrendered without a fight, everything would be perfect.
Zhang Liao shouted coldly: "Cao Cao, if you want to fight, you will fight, what is the general afraid of?" ”
In a word, it shows a tough attitude.
Cao Cao's face was gloomy, and he shouted: "Siege!" ”
At the sound of an order, the Wei soldiers attacked.
Zhang Liao's expression was solemn and a little nervous, he had already sent a message to Wang Can, asking Wang Can to send troops to support. However, Cao Cao was in front and Wang Can was behind, and it would take a little time for the Shu army to arrive, which required Zhang Liao to delay time. Zhang Liao looked at the lieutenant beside him, and ordered in a deep voice: "Immediately, the people in the city of Dongyuan said that Cao Cao was going to slaughter the city and rob it, and let them take up arms to defend the city." ”
Zhang Liao had nearly 10,000 soldiers under his command, but he felt that it was not safe.
If the people of the city participate in the defense of the city, this is a powerful and invincible force.
Captain Hug Fist; "General, the last general will immediately inform the people."
After the lieutenant turned to leave, the Wei soldiers attacked.
Zhang Liao was a little nervous in his heart, but he still calmly commanded the defenders to defend against the enemy. In the face of the swarming Wei soldiers, Zhang Liao did not panic, did not fear, but kept fighting.
The more critical it is, the more calm it is.
Zhang Liao ran back and forth on the castle tower, encouraging the soldiers on the castle tower to kill the enemy.
"Smack! Syllable!!! ”
A cloud ladder was erected on the city tower, and the Wei soldiers, who had already been impatient, launched an attack. One by one, the soldiers climbed on the ladder, like light apes, constantly scurrying upward.
Not long after, Wei soldiers rushed forward.
One by one, the Wei army rushed up, and the two sides launched a fierce battle.
The 10,000 soldiers brought by Zhang Liao were different from the defenders in the county town, and they were more courageous. Even though the Wei army was attacking like a tide, it was still blocked by the defenders on the city tower.
Cao Cao saw that the army failed to gain an advantage, and said hatefully: "If our army's camp is not burned, you can use a thunderbolt to throw boulders to attack the city wall and smash the city wall of Wuyin County." It's a pity, it's a pity......"
Cao Cao sighed again and again, very disappointed.
Cao Cao's army was withdrawn halfway, without carrying siege weapons, only a simple ladder siege.
As a result, the difficulty of the siege increases in a straight line.
Cao Ang stared at the city tower, and saw countless people wearing coarse linen clothes and holding hoes and wooden forks suddenly appear on the city tower, and exclaimed: "Father, look at the city tower, there are people participating in the war, Zhang Liao mobilized all the people in the city to protect Wuyin County, we have encountered a hard bone." ”
Cao Cao's eyes swept away, and his mood became even heavier.
is a good Zhang Liao, who actually organized the people in the city to resist, and reacted quickly enough.
Zhang Liao looked at the people around him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Only when the people help can they form the strongest defense.
Even though Cao Cao's army was strong, thousands of people in the city knew that Cao Cao was going to slaughter the city, and they rose up to resist, which was the most powerful force. Cao Cao did not have a siege weapon, and if he could not enter the city, it would be difficult to break the city, which was Zhang Liao's self-confidence. The siege was fought from noon to night, and the city was littered with corpses.
The people were killed and wounded, the defenders were killed and wounded, and so were the soldiers under Cao Cao.
Overall, Cao Cao's losses were greater.
Liu Ye looked at the bloodstained city wall, frowned and said: "Lord, the people of Wuyin County have all come to help Zhang Liao, and they are all resisting to the death, and it will be difficult for us to win if we stay in Wuyin County!" In fact, Liu Ye wanted to say that those who have attained the Tao will have more help and those who have lost the Tao will have little help, but he didn't dare to say it, so he could only persuade Cao Cao tactfully.
The slaughter of the city and the snatching of grain is a taboo.
Cao Cao's face sank like water, and he shouted hatefully: "Collect the troops!" ”
"Bell! Clang! Clang!! ”
The gong sounded, and when the Wei soldiers heard it, they retreated like a tide.
Zhang Liao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Wei soldiers retreating. When the soldiers defending the city saw that the Wei soldiers had retreated, they laughed loudly, and a smile of joy appeared on their bloodstained faces. The people on the city tower were even more rejoicing, holding up the weapons in their hands and jumping up, congratulating them for holding their homes and not being slaughtered by Cao Cao, and some people even cried with joy.
All because they kept their homeland.
Zhang Liao did not relax his vigilance, as long as there were no reinforcements for a day, he could not relax for a day.
Cao Cao is still outside the city, and there is still a threat.
