Chapter 351: Siege

I don't know how Yuan Shao's concubine looks, Lao Tzu will grab a few and bring them back when he arrives. Ju Yi said.

Wei Yandao: Okay, you have to ask the lord about this, otherwise you will get into trouble.

What's the trouble? What was captured on the battlefield, do you need to ask? Bring sand to the beach! Ju Yi said.

You! Come on, big boss, you'll find out later! Forget it, let's go if we don't talk about it!

In the city, Yuan Shao's face was haggard. It seemed to be a lot older overnight, and he knew that his momentum was gone. It's a bit decadent.

Lord, General Lu Kuang is back. He also brought a few pro-soldiers. Guo Tudao.

Hum! And the face is back, let him in. Yuan Shaodao!

Sin will see the Lord! Lu Kuangdao.

Yuan Shaodao: How did you come back?

Back to the lord, the last general was put back by Zhang Jie. Zhang Jie: They didn't know who the last general was, so they didn't even ask. Nearly 60,000 soldiers were also captured. Zhang Jie let it go. Each person was given a penny and a dry ration.

Xu Youdao: You mean 60,000 people were released? Each person also sends a penny? A dry ration?

Yes, the last general didn't believe it at first, but then it was true. Before letting us go, Zhang Jie shouted to his brothers, saying that he came to Xuzhou for the poor people to live a good life. I hope you don't come back to be a soldier when you go back. If we catch Ding again, if we see each other on the battlefield in the future, I hope that the brothers will throw down their weapons and surrender, and they will still let us go home! Lu Yuandao.

Bastard, come on, drag down and cut down. Yuan Shao said angrily.

My lord spares his life. The last general will be loyal to his lord. That's why I went back to the city, and the rest of the brothers ran away!

Slow! Lord, I don't blame General Lu for this matter, and I ask the lord to spare his life for the sake of his loyalty to the lord for many years. Xu Youdao.

Yuan Shao is actually angry Zhang Jie, he didn't think about Lu Kuang, it's good if people can come back, what else can they do!

Okay, if you have Ziyuan to intercede for you, I won't pursue it. Go down!

Promise!

It's a pity that Yuan Shao wanted to kill Lu Kuang just now, which made Lu Kuang hate Yuan Shao. In fact, Yuan Shao was just putting on a show, but for Lu Kuang, this was Yuan Shao really wanting to kill him!

After Lu Kuang went down. Xu Youdao: Zhang Jie's trick is indeed harmful, we can pay more attention to recruiting troops in the future, and try not to recruit these soldiers who have escaped back. So as not to take the lead in surrendering next time.

Lord, at present, we still have more than 30,000 people in the city, Tancheng is strong, as long as the city is guarded, Zhang Jie can't help us for a while. Moreover, Zhang Jie's grain and grass supply is difficult and not enough to last. Let's defend the city first! Xu Youdao.

Yuan Shao nodded and said: "Pass the order, send more people to guard the city gate, no one is allowed to open the city gate without my order." In order to prevent Zhang Jie from attacking the city gate. No one is allowed to lead a group near the doorway!

Promise!

Zhang Jie's military camp, the lord, just received a report from Kuaimalai that something happened in Jiangdong and Sun Ce died? He was stabbed by an assassin and died. Tian Feng said.

Everyone in the tent was also embarrassed when they heard that Sun Ce had died like this. It's a shame.

Zhang Jie heard that Sun Ce was dead, damn, history still went back. In history, Sun Ce also died in the fifth year of Jian'an (200).

Zhang Jie said: Sun Ce died like this, it's a pity, it's a pity that a generation of heroes died from assassins.

He was only twenty-six years old, and his son should still be young. If nothing else, Sun Ce should not pass on the throne to his son, but should pass it on to his second brother Sun Quan. After all, this is a troubled time, and passing it on to a doll will not protect the foundation of Jiangdong.

Sun Quan is eighteen years old, and he can be regarded as an adult.

Ay! One more rival!

Jia Xu said: Lord, are you saying that this Sun Quan is a fierce rival? How is he better than Sun Ce?

Hehe, if you want to talk about martial arts, Sun Quan is the same as Jie, he is okay to pretend, 108,000 miles worse than Sun Ce.

If it is to fight the country, he is far worse than Sun Ce. But if he guards the country, he is stronger than his father Sun Wentai and brother Sun Bofu.

This guy is scheming! is especially able to forbear, understands strategy, and is the same as Liu Bei. Although he is still young, he is very sophisticated and much more difficult to deal with than Sun Ce. You'll find out later.

Everyone also thought it was strange, Zhang Jie had never been to Jiangdong, how could he know Sun Quan so well? Could it be that there are spies by Sun Quan's side? Unlikely!

Well, at present, Sun Ce has just died, and Jiangdong must be panicked for a while, but with Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao here, Jiangdong can't be chaotic. We're not done here, and we can't do anything about Jiangdong for a while. Let's think about the present!

If we don't exterminate Yuan Shao, we won't be able to go anywhere. It's in vain to think about it!

Lord, at present, Tancheng can only be attacked, and there is no other way. In the past two days, we have not besieged the city, but Yuan Shao did not retreat to Qingzhou, indicating that Yuan Shao intends to hold on to Tancheng to the end. Tian Feng said.

Zhang Jie nodded and said: "Wen Chang, you take someone to take down the county towns around Tancheng, and by the way, find some food." But don't rob it!

Promise!

Bo Dao, you lead people to fill in the moat.

Ju Yi, you transfer a group of crossbowmen to Bo Dao to help fill the river!

Promise!

Gongyan sent someone to Xiapi, and asked Mi Zhu and Chen Qi to find a way to raise another 100,000 stone of grain to Tancheng. Even if you can't raise so much for a while, you have to raise at least 50,000 stone first. At least one month's food reserves for the army should be ensured.

Promise!

Wenyuan, you take people to cut down trees. Make siege engines.

Promise!

Ladies and gentlemen, we have no choice, we have to do it all at once. Take Tancheng, so as to squeeze Yuan Shao to Qingzhou and then eliminate it, of course, it would be better if Yuan Shao could be eliminated in Tancheng in one fell swoop.

Now our main forces are in Xuzhou, and there are not many troops in the rear. So you can't keep dragging it out here.

Only by exterminating Yuan Shao can we be invincible!

When Zhang Jie's soldiers were filling in the moat, the defenders on the city wall began to get anxious, and they knew that Zhang Jie was going to attack the city.

Tancheng is a big city, and there is an urn city behind the city gate. There are advantages and disadvantages to defending the big city.

The advantage is that the walls are high, making it difficult for the enemy to storm them.

The disadvantage is that the city is too big, and the defensive area is also large, which increases the difficulty of defending the city!

In addition, Yuan Shao's veterans are almost dead, and the vast majority of those guarding the city are new soldiers. Many people are scared when they see each other filling in the moat!

After three days, the moat was filled. At this time, Zhang Jie only had more than 60,000 horses, and the rest were wounded, or they were killed in the last battle. Zhang Jie simply sent the wounded to Xiapi to recuperate!

A city with 60,000 men attacking and 30,000 defenders is actually not advantageous, because it is a fortified city like Tancheng. But Zhang Jie can't help it, if he doesn't attack this time, let Yuan Shao take a breath. It will recruit troops again. I don't know if there will be more than 100,000 horses next time, so it will be endless. So even if Zhang Jie has big casualties, he has to capture Tancheng! Otherwise, the troops will never be withdrawn.

Why don't you play psychological tactics? Sima Yi said.

What does Zhongda mean? You talk about it. Zhang Jie said.

The lord can send someone to shoot some letters with bows and arrows to the city, saying that only Yuan Shao is to blame, and has nothing to do with the rest of the people. If anyone can kill Yuan Benchu, he will be rewarded with a thousand gold and sealed the county guard of Donghai.
