Yes, after several successive strong attacks were fruitless, and there was Zhang Liao's central dispatch on the opposite side, and under the sturdiness of strict defense, Cao Cao finally chose to temporarily Mingjin.

He didn't expect that this Xiliang Lieutenant, who he looked down on at the beginning, named Zhang Liao, would be so strong in commanding ability.

Of course, Zhang Liao's success surprised many people.

What Cao Cao also didn't expect was a group of Xiliang guards on the Tiger Prison.

They stared at them with big eyes and small eyes, dumbfounded.

Before, they all had to look at Zhang Liao, the hairy boy in their eyes, and they had to suffer a lot.

Who really thinks that this guy seems to be really capable!

Recalling the comfortable feeling when Fang had just accepted the appointment under his subordinates, all the generals couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

They actually saw a trace of Xu Shuai's shadow on this young captain.

Can you imagine?

They themselves are a little unbelievable about their thoughts, you know, Xu Rong is handsome, that is the lord is full of praise, as their Xiliang, recognized as the strongest commander of the man!

Now, I actually saw his shadow on the body of a stinky hairy boy?

For a while, the generals on the city wall couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring, and they were more and more in awe of Zhang Liao, a young general.

At this point, after seeing Zhang Liao's command skills, the Xiliang guards on the city wall also expressed their willingness to cooperate with Zhang Liao in the next battle with practical actions.

In this regard, Zhang Liao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In the final analysis, the strategic position of this tiger prison is still too prominent, causing him to suddenly take on a heavy responsibility, and naturally he does not dare to be careless.

....

Of course, one failure doesn't mean anything.

Soon, the second attack of the Confederate forces began to prepare again.

The princes of the three roads, tens of thousands of soldiers, were quickly assembled.

Standing at the forefront were the 7,000 soldiers under the command of Cao Cao himself.

When Cao Cao's gaze swept over, the soldiers all straightened their spines, although some were eager to try, and some were a little apprehensive.

But without exception, the soldiers are all upright, which is a posture of being ready to fight at any time.

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction.

After two months of training, the obedience of these soldiers recruited from Chen Liu can be described as new.

Although when it comes to real combat effectiveness, it is still incomparable with those veterans who have been fighting for a long time.

But each of them is an extremely strong man, and it only takes a few bloody battles for them to become an elite division!

Cao Cao set his sights on the troops sent by the other two princes.

Since the attack has already begun, this time there is no need for any strategy, it is completely a collision of the strength of the two sides.

He decided to integrate the elite of the three armies and take the tiger prison in one go!

However, for the importance of the West Gate of the Tiger Prison, the Xiliang guards are no worse than Cao Cao.

Even Zhang Liao at the head of the city was informed that he needed to go to Lu Bu to report the battle situation in person.

It is also not forgotten to allocate a deputy general to lead 2,000 troops to garrison the city corner, and ask him to prepare more strong bows and crossbows, and make defensive preparations before going down the wall.

This is a stalemate that is destined to be time-consuming and labor-intensive.

"Yuan Rang, it's all up to you!" After Cao Cao discussed with Wei Hong and Bao Xin, he drew 2,000 elites from their troops, and merged more than 1,000 elites from his own family, and the two armies merged into one and handed over to Xiahoudun to lead.

"Siege!" Cao Cao's hopeful Xiahou gave an order, and rushed out with 3,000 elite troops, and the sergeants shouted to kill Zhentian, all of whom said: "General Xiahou is here, and the enemy general will not surrender quickly!" ”

Outside the West Gate, countless figures shouted this sentence, and with each sentence, their momentum increased by one point.

Xiahoudun pulled the reins of the horse with satisfaction, looked back at the army on foot behind him, and saw that the soldiers under his command were full of expression and high morale, and couldn't help nodding secretly.

Seeing that the morale was available, he immediately led his troops to Simon.

"Jing Yan stepped forward! Suppress! The ladder is tight! The first to climb the city wall, reward! Xiahoudun licked his lips, and while moving quickly, his mouth promised loudly according to what Cao Cao had taught him.

The world is indeed the most terrible army that is not afraid of death, braving the bow and arrow of the tiger prison, the well is slowly moving forward, and the archers and crossbowmen on it have shot back.

More than a dozen hurried ladders, surrounded by 3,000 elite soldiers, fell in the direction of the city wall.

The ancient ladder was a little different from the current ladder, it looked more like a long shelf with a hook.

When approaching the walled city, the Confederate soldiers who stayed on it could hook the wall with iron hooks, so that the Confederate soldiers below them could climb the wall in a steady stream.

As for the Jing 阑 thing, it is prepared for the gōng nǔ hand.

Because when attacking the city, the defenders on the city wall have a huge lethality to the soldiers besieging the city below.

Most of them gathered around the ladder, slowly leaning towards the west gate, holding a wooden shield that was not well made but practical.

At this time, Xiahoudun, who was also holding a shield in his left hand and holding a knife in his right hand, climbed quickly on the ladder, letting thousands of arrows rain down, but he was unharmed.

Behind him were the eight hundred Xiahou clan townsmen, these townsmen were all private soldiers, who had been trained for a long time, and at this time they were following behind Xiahoudun, and they were not afraid to see the rain of arrows falling.

At this time, the tiger prison was closed, and it was really like rain of arrows, whistling endlessly.

If other armies had suffered such a blow, they would have been defeated a long time ago, but these Xiahou private armies were worthy of being elites, and they rushed to the west gate wall under the rain of arrows.

Bang!

After paying a lot of casualties, the first ladder hooked up to the city wall, and I saw more than ten soldiers of the Alliance Army on the ladder frame, jumping onto the city wall with red eyes.

Xiahou shouted angrily: "Bold thief! An dare to be stubborn, and he didn't send his head quickly, saving a certain amount of effort. ”

The guards on the tower of the city condescended to shoot arrows with their strength, which provoked Xiahou to be angry and bloody.

A looming phantom flickered behind him, and the figure suddenly became floating.

Brush brush brush ~

The red light flashed all over his body, and Xiahoudun's movements suddenly became extremely fast, and a big knife waved continuously, like a life-chasing rope, and in just one moment, the defenders of the enemy's city head fell down with their eyes in their eyes, which was really powerful.

And Xiahoudun also took advantage of this to quickly move upward.

Seeing that Xiahoudun had approached the city, Cao Cao suddenly shouted, "Drumming!" Cheer for General Xiahou! ”

The soldiers of the Alliance Army who were beating the drums held their breath and smashed the drum face to death, and the drum beat suddenly rose a few points.

With a sudden jump of his feet, Xiahou Dun, who jumped on the city wall, burst out two cold lightning bolts in his eyes, and while sweeping the nearby Xiliang defenders, he hurriedly urged the soldiers behind him to cover up and kill.

He took the lead, and there was no one under him, and the guards who looked at him were in front of him, and he slashed with a knife, hitting the neck, and a head rolled down the wall with a gurgling and lost his life.
