Hundreds of thousands of troops blocked the water in the siege of Fancheng.

Luo Cheng's Jingzhou army was responsible for entering the city to solve the remnants of Li Dian.

6 The 200,000 troops of Xun, Bai Qi, and Liu Bowen were still stationed outside the city.

After the end of the Great War.

Li Dian was imprisoned.

The captured Cao soldiers were also confined in the school grounds.

All the high-ranking generals gathered at the castle guard's mansion.

The joy of victory made everyone laugh.

Crumb.

Liu Bowen said: "In Wancheng in Nanyang, there are 15,000 of our elites, all pretending to be ordinary people, once the army arrives, they will immediately arm themselves, cooperate with us inside and outside, and conquer Wancheng in one fell swoop." ”

"A small Nanyang actually dispatched our army of hundreds of thousands..."

&1t;i>&1t;/i>

6 Xun said with a smile: "I knew that this was the case, why not attack Hanzhong directly?" ”

Luo Cheng sat on the top seat, took a sip of tea and said, "General 6 is not right. The Military Aircraft Department has the consideration of the Military Aircraft Department, and the terrain of Hanzhong is dangerous and condescending, and it is not easy for our army to capture it. Nanyang is the old land of our army, and there is an internal response, and it is easy to attack, how can the two be comparable? ”

"Okay, good.... 6 Xun dragged a long voice and said: "It is a good thing to be able to recover Nanyang. Let's not delay, let's leave as soon as possible and end the war. ”

"Hmm."

Liu Bowen opened the map and said: "The key to this battle is degree. Cao Ren overestimated his garrison in Fancheng and underestimated the combat effectiveness of our army, and he felt that it would be difficult for us to attack the city without artillery. This made him not rush to Li Dian's aid in time. We must take advantage of Cao Ren's reaction before we can wave our army to Wancheng, unite with our Neiying, and recover Wancheng. ”&1t;i>&1t;/i>

"What Mr. Berwyn said, and what I wanted to say. Can you agree? Luo Cheng asked.

All expressed their support...

Luo Chengdao: "Okay." I immediately sent someone to send the captives to Xiangyang. Our troops and horses will march to Wancheng in the early hours of tomorrow. Strive to resist Wancheng within two days. ”

"No."

The people answered.

Cao Ren's army of 100,000 had arrived in Xicheng.

Yue Fei, who was stationed in Xicheng, didn't expect Cao Ren to be so bold and dare to attack his Xicheng. You must know that at this moment in Xicheng, there are 100,000 Yizhou troops stationed there, and they are personally commanded by him.

Don't you want a decisive battle?

Want to eliminate the Yizhou Army?

Yue Fei couldn't help but snicker in his heart: "You don't take me too seriously, do you?!" ”&1t;i>&1t;/i>

No matter what Cao Ren's purpose was, it was impossible for Yue Fei to back down. He had to face Cao Ren, because only by facing Cao Ren could he hold Cao Ren back, and it would be easier for the Jingzhou army to attack Nanyang.

A few days later.

Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan led 120,000 Yuzhou troops to Xicheng and joined forces with Cao Ren.

A total of 220,000 troops!

Regardless of the combat effectiveness of the army, in terms of the number of troops, it was more than twice as large as Yue Fei's Yizhou army.

Thus.

Cao Ren's purpose in coming to Xicheng was not to simply fight him, but to eliminate him, eliminate the Yizhou army he brought from Yizhou, and even want to recover Hanzhong.

"Hmph, I don't have a small appetite..."

Standing on the tower of Xicheng, Yue Fei said to Gao Pei, the Shu general on the side: "Go and order the vulture bones and ask him to transfer the Wudang Fei Army to Beicheng." When I was engaged in battle with Cao Ren, I ordered him to raid the Yuzhou army. I want to see if the Wudang Flying Army, which is known as invincible in 6 wars, can defeat the 100,000 Yuzhou army. ”&1t;i>&1t;/i>

"No."

Gao Pei responded and was about to leave.

Yue Fei stopped him again and said, "Just in case, I will also give you 20,000 elites, and you lead them to Beicheng." If the Wudang Flying Army can't defeat the Yuzhou Army, you will immediately rush to help. ”

"Yes."

Gao Pei returned to the city and went to the camp of the vulture bones.

Shu general Yang Huai walked behind Yue Fei and asked weakly, "Is the Metropolitan Governor preparing for a decisive battle with the 220,000 Cao army?" ”

"Xicheng is just a small city, and it is difficult to hold on. If we wait for the enemy to come in, we will be very passive, so we have to take the initiative. As long as the Wudang Flying Army of the Vulture Bone can make a draw with the Yuzhou Army. I am sure that I will defeat Cao Ren. Yue Fei said.

"It's too risky....

"The use of soldiers is the use of risk, and there is no victory without danger." Yue Fei also learned this sentence. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

In fact, he fights very safely, and never takes risks...

Yang Huai was still worried, and said: "Our Yizhou Army is the best at offensive and defensive warfare, not at field warfare. We don't have a war horse either, and if we fight Cao Ren in the field, the last general will be worried... ”

"You're right."

Yue Fei glanced at Yang Huai and said, "But..... I've got my own measure. ”

"Yes."

Yang Huai's status in Shuzhong is second only to Zhang Ren, but he is not like Zhang Ren, who is reused by Yue Fei. Maybe it's because he doesn't have military exploits. So many times he didn't dare to express his true opinion.

Yue Fei said that he had his own measure, and he could only wait and see.

....................

After Cao Ren joined forces with Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan, his strength doubled. &1t;i>&1t;/i>

In the camp of the Cao army in the eastern suburbs of Xicheng.

Cao Ren was ready to attack Xicheng, gathered his generals, and gave the order to march.

"Xiahou Yuan."

"Yes."

Cao Ren said: "You lead 50,000 Yuzhou troops to attack Beicheng." ”

"No."

"Xiahoudun."

"Yes." A one-eyed general stepped forward.

Cao Ren said: "You lead 70,000 Yuzhou troops and line up in the northeast to supervise the battle." If the battle doesn't go well, you can rush to the rescue. Pay attention to Yue Fei in the city, don't let him escape. ”

"No."

Xiahou replied.

"The rest of the generals, follow me to attack the eastern city. Tomorrow, the third watch will make food, and the fifth watch will come out, and the siege will begin before noon. I will spend two days destroying Yue Fei and his 100,000 Yizhou army, occupying Xicheng, and then returning to Nanyang to help in the battle. Cao Ren prayed silently in his heart: "Li Dian, you have to hold on for a few more days." ”&1t;i>&1t;/i>

"No."

Everyone answers.

Next.

Xiahou Yuan led 50,000 Yuzhou troops to Beicheng.

Xiahoudun led 70,000 Yuzhou troops to supervise the battle in the northeast corner.

Cao Ren led an army of 100,000 and attacked Dongcheng.

With such a triangular formation, the troops besieging the city can be reinforced. It can be seen that Cao Ren didn't dare to underestimate Yue Fei, for fear that Yue Fei would play some tricks, so he took out 70,000 troops to prevent accidents.

Knock knock...

At noon, Cao Ren's troops arrived in Dongcheng and challenged with drums.

Yue Fei said bluntly: "Cao Ren, if you have the courage, come and attack the city!" ”

Cao Ren was originally here to attack the city, so of course he would not hesitate. He mobilized 10,000 elites to serve as the main force for the siege. The rest set up a two-yi Taiji array in the rear.

"Siege!"

Roar, roar, roar...

The soldiers marched towards the west city with neat steps.

On the towers of the west and east cities, the huge stones, broken logs, archers, and so on necessary to defend the city have been prepared. When the enemy was close, Yang Huai drew his sword and shouted: "Shoot the arrow!" ”

Whoosh...

Thousands of arrows flew down.

Yue Fei was too lazy to watch, he had more important things to do now.
