Chapter 62: The Battle of Zhili IV
"Boom!" As the Yellow Turban Army regained its last foothold on the wall, the Cao Army's camp burst into cheers.
On the other hand, the Yellow Turban Army was dejected, and thousands of dead and wounded were killed and wounded before they climbed the city wall, but now they were completely driven down by the other party, Bo Cai's face was even more gloomy, and he glanced at the Cao army that had begun to rearrange the defense, and then saw that his morale had been seriously hit, and Bo Cai had to reluctantly order Mingjin to withdraw his troops.
"Bang!" Bo Cai kicked over the table in front of him, pointed to the group of yellow turban generals below who were bowing their heads and scolded: "Waste, a group of waste, 200,000 people attacking a simple camp with less than 10,000 people to defend it like this!" ”
"Qu Shuai is angry, the officers and troops in the First World War also suffered heavy losses today, and now they are afraid that the number of soldiers they can fight is less than half of the before, tomorrow our army will step up the siege of the city, and we will definitely be able to break through the official army camp before Yuan Shao arrives!" Bocai's deputy, Peng Tuo, said stiffly.
"Hmph, then Yuan Benchu can arrive the morning after tomorrow at the latest, and if it's fast, he will arrive tomorrow, no matter what method you use, even if you use human lives, you have to break through the official army camp in front of me!" Bocai ordered again.
"No!" Peng Tuo didn't say anything more, but just promised with the Yellow Turban generals.
In the early morning of the next day, Bo Cai shouted in front of the Yellow Turban Army: "The officers and troops in front of them have blocked our army for three whole days, and they are almost dead and wounded. After speaking, Bo Cai showed a look of impatience, and the eyes of the Yellow Turban Army, who had been unable to win because of hard fighting for several days, also rekindled.
"Break through the official army camp and rob all the counties of Zhili!" I don't know who took the lead in shouting the slogan, and the yellow turban soldiers below also shouted together, and the shouts shook the sky.
On the other side, the remaining less than 500 cavalry in Cao's camp grabbed their weapons, most of them were Zhili people, and their families lived here, but those infantry did not react much, they were Cao Cao's adaptation of the Yellow Turban prisoners, there were from all over the country, and it was not a big deal for them for the Yellow Turban Army to sack Zhili.
"Siege!" Seeing that the atmosphere was almost over, Bo Cai decisively ordered.
"Kill!" One by one, the Yellow Turban soldiers screamed and rushed towards the Cao army camp.
"Shoot the arrows!" The generals at all levels of the Cao army also began to command the defense, but due to the hard fighting for two days, coupled with the lack of preparation, the archers of the Cao army not only lost most of them in the last battle, but even the arrows were not much left, so the arrow rain on the head of the city was a little sparse, and the Yellow Turban soldiers who were charging with shields below saw it, and their morale was shocked, and a Yellow Turban captain shouted loudly: "There are not many bows and arrows in the official army, brothers, there are countless money and beautiful girls waiting for us in front!" ”
"Kill!" The Yellow Turban Army attacked more vigorously, while the Cao Army was a little demoralized.
"Brothers, the 30,000 army led by the lieutenant of the Chinese military is about to arrive, hold on, the Yellow Turban traitors outside are just a rabble, General Cao said, hold the camp, no one will reward thirty gold." Cao Ren shouted on the wall.
Hearing the reward ordered by Cao Cao and the news that reinforcements were about to arrive, the original declining morale of Cao Cao's army finally rebounded a little, and at this critical juncture, there was only a reward to improve morale, and he couldn't talk about ideals with this group of big-headed soldiers, wasn't that a joke?
"Quick! Rush up! A ladder finally leaned against the wall, and the hook on it hooked tightly to the wall, and a yellow turban officer continued to direct the soldiers to climb the ladder in the ladder.
"Ahh With a scream, a climbing Yellow Turban soldier was smashed down by Cao Jun's soldiers with radium wood, and fell heavily to the ground, spurting blood from his mouth and nose, but no one cared about him, and the others continued to climb, during which the Yellow Turban soldiers were constantly smashed down by the rolling stone radium wood.
"Rush!" Finally, the first Yellow Turban soldier rushed up to the wall, slashed one of the Cao soldiers who was about to smash the radium wood, and then rushed towards the nearest Cao soldier, and several Yellow Turban soldiers behind him followed up the wall, establishing the first foothold in the attack.
"Kill! Kill it! The officer of the Cao army commanded the soldiers to continue to kill the foothold of the Yellow Turban Army, in a vain attempt to push them off the wall, but soon more and more places landed the Yellow Turban Army, and the Cao army had to disperse its forces to meet the battle, and the situation became critical again for a while.
"It's coming! Soon! Kill! Bo Cai outside watched more and more Yellow Turban soldiers rush to the wall, and whispered in his mouth.
However, he was disappointed after all, only to see a Yellow Turban Army foothold, several soldiers fell directly from the wall, a strong man holding a big knife on the wall left and right, where he passed, the Yellow Turban soldiers were either dead or wounded, several self-armed brave Yellow Turban lieutenants rushed up to meet the battle, and took over the battle but Sanhe was killed by it!
"Who is this person?" Bo Cai asked Peng Tuo beside him.
"Look at this weapon and outfit, it should be Cao Mengde's brother Cao Ren!" Peng Tuo thought for a moment and replied.
"It's a pity, such a fierce general can't be used by me, seeing that there should be little left of the officers and troops in this situation, I ordered to continue to advance, and I must take Cao Ying today!" Bo Cai regretted for a moment and said again.
"The last general commands!" After Peng Tuo finished speaking, he went down to command.
On the wall, Cao Ren held a big knife and rushed into the Yellow Turban Army, killing the Yellow Turban Army on the wall, and the soldiers of the Cao Army around him followed him to attack forward, but as time went by, there were fewer and fewer Cao soldiers around Cao Ren, and I don't know when, Cao Ren looked around, and there was no one of his own soldiers around him, only nearly 100 Yellow Turban Army surrounded him.
"Kill!" Cao Ren forcibly dragged up his tired body, raised his knife and rushed towards the Yellow Turban Army, blood stained his battle robe and armor, and there were no small wounds on his body, after all, there were too many Yellow Turban Army, even if he was brave alone, it would be very difficult to toss and move in such a narrow place as the wall, and he would inevitably be injured.
Cao Ren stood with his knife in his hand, looking at the dozens of Yellow Turban soldiers around him, he had no strength, and the Yellow Turban Army who fell in his hands was hundreds of people, he was too tired.
The Yellow Turban Army who surrounded him also discovered this, and in line with the reason of taking advantage of his illness to kill him, they raised their knives to kill Cao Ren.
Suddenly, there was chaos on the periphery, and a military general with a spear rushed in, followed by dozens of Cao soldiers, killing this group of Yellow Turban Army with great momentum.
