(Recommended reading: Two days later, the time has come for the tripartite coalition forces of Cao, Liu, and Sun to besiege Shouchun City.

At three o'clock, as the leader of the coalition army, Cao Yingli was the first to sound the earth-shattering 'gathering drum', and then, the Xuzhou Army Camp and the Jiangdong Army Camp also sounded a continuous horn sound, and the three-way army poured out, like three fierce beasts that had sharpened their minions, and pounced on Shouchun's fat!

According to the prior deployment, Shouchun was on all sides, Liu Bei attacked the east gate, Sun Ce attacked the south gate, Cao's army was the most powerful, divided into two, Xiao Yi commanded 70,000 troops to attack the north gate, Cao Cao personally led the rest of the generals to attack the west gate, hundreds of thousands of troops, surrounded by iron arms on all sides, the army array was mighty and impenetrable, not to mention people, even a fly would not want to fly out!

In the city, in the face of the powerful offensive of the coalition army, Li Feng, Chen Ji, Le Zhuo, and Liang Gang were also actively preparing for war, and the four of them each guarded one door, and ordered all men in Shouchun City, regardless of age or age, to be given swords and guns; In order to prepare more rolling wood and thunder stones, they ripped off the walls of Yuan Shu's 'pseudo-palace', and the main hall was demolished several times.

And they also understand that this is the strongest blow of the coalition army, but it is also the last blow, as long as they can grit their teeth and get through, the opponent's spirit will be lost, and they will not be able to attack again, and when the grain and grass are exhausted and the division veterans are tired, they will naturally retreat!

"Heaven bless, break the city today!"

In the west of the city, Prime Minister Cao Cao was dressed in gold armor and red robes, holding the sword of Yitian, and immediately in the middle of the military formation, and his three sons Cao Pi, Cao Zhang, and Cao Zhi were lined up behind him, looking at Shouchun City in front of him, and his heart was full of emotion.

More than two months have passed since the middle of September and the end of November, and the army has fought bloody battles one after another, with tens of thousands of soldiers killed and wounded, countless amounts of grain, grass, and ordnance consumed.

Regardless of victory or defeat, this is the only battle, if you win, you will dominate, and if you lose, you will retreat!

"Prime Minister, the hour has come, please give the order!" The strategist Guo Jia urged the horse to come to the front, in order to boost morale, today he also put on a soft armor for the first time, and wore a sword at his waist!

"Okay, pass the order to the Jiangdong Army, let them do it!" Saying that, Cao Cao raised the command flag in his hand, and the whole army began the final preparations.

"No!"

"Woo! Woo! Woo! ………… Doodle! ”

Three long and two short, the melodious sound of the horn spread far away......

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the south of the city, in the Huaishui River, the Jiangdong Navy has been lined up for a long time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu each put on battle armor, holding swords, standing side by side on the 'Yuhuang Boat', commanding this huge siege battle, and the rest of the generals are lined up on both sides, ready to listen to orders!

"Beat the drums, attack!" Hearing the sound of the horn, Xiao Bawang-Sun Ce waved his hand and took the lead in issuing the military order to attack.

"Boom! Boom! …… Roar, roar, roar! ”

The flags swayed, the drums sounded like thunder, but the Jiangdong Army's large array did not move at all, but drove dozens of warships from the water village, these ships are relatively old, and the color of the ship board is also different shades, obviously all of them have been repaired, and there are not many sailors on it, but they are loaded with a large amount of sand and gravel, and the waterline pressure is extremely low!

This fleet sailed all the way into the moat of Shouchun, chose a place with the narrowest water surface to stop, and then the soldiers above took out iron drills and giant hammers, and in teams of two, they actually struggled to chisel the bottom of the boat~~

"Ding! Bite! Bite! ……”

The hammer head falls, and the sawdust flies!

How did the already broken warships withstand such a beating, and soon the river water gushed out of the holes, and the soldiers jumped on other boats and watched the row of warships full of sand and gravel sink, and then another row of boats rowed over, still in the same place, in the original way, one by one!

Jiangdong soldiers have lived in the land of water since childhood, there are no measuring tools, let alone clairvoyance, they rely on the change of water flow, they simply stacked dozens of sunken ships to form an underwater embankment, constantly increasing and thickening~~

And with the formation of the embankment, the moat, which was originally turbulent, finally eased down, and finally turned out to be like an ordinary small stream, which could only trickle, or even the water did not move!

'Sinking the ship and plugging the river', this is the method that Zhou Yu came up with, since he was frustrated by Xiao Yi two days ago, he was indignant in his heart, meditating on the plan to break the city, and vowed to break Shouchun City first, so as to get out of his heart!

Seeing that the river was blocked, Yuan Jun in the city suddenly cried, like mourning, if the most important line of defense of the moat is lost, then Shouchun City will be equal to the **** people.

"Wan Sheng! …… Wansheng! ”

On the contrary, the coalition soldiers were thunderous with joy and morale, as long as they could cross the river, when it came to besieging the city, who were they afraid of these land tigers?

"Woo! Woo! ~~Besiege! ”

The horns sounded in unison, and the combined forces of Cao, Liu, and Sun launched the military order to attack at the same time, and hundreds of thousands of troops shouted and swooped towards Shouchun City, like a huge wave, impacting a sand sculpture that had lost its foundation, and it was only a matter of time before it was destroyed!

The north gate is the direction of attack that Xiao Yi is responsible for commanding, according to the steps that have been deduced on the sand table a long time ago, the crossbowmen of the brigade rushed to the front line and began to suppress the Yuan army on the city wall with a rain of arrows, while tens of thousands of auxiliaries carried sandbags and desperately filled the moat, all of them bravely forward!

Last night, Prime Minister Cao Cao specially inspected the auxiliary barracks and made a promise to them, as long as they can break through Shouchun today, then they will forgive all their previous sins, and all of them will be restored to their free bodies.

Such a temptation in front, how can the auxiliaries not fight to the death, they put sandbags in front of them, blocking the rain of arrows shot from the city wall, but the feet are fast like flying, everyone has only one thought, "rush over, fill in the moat, must fill it ~~~"

The morale of the coalition army is like a rainbow, and the fighting is energetic, but the Yuan army in Shouchun City is fluctuating, and there is no determination to fight to the death, no matter how the 'four ministers' scold, the soldiers just can't muster up the energy, even Yuan Shu's 'pseudo-emperor' fled with the emperor and concubines, who do they give their lives to?

"Hold on to the city, and if there are negative ones, cut them!"

In desperation, Li Feng and others had to personally kill a few deserters who were unwilling to go to the city to resist, and hung their heads on the shafts of spears to threaten those soldiers to go to the city to defend, which barely stabilized the situation.

However, this kind of combat effectiveness forced out by killing is naturally greatly reduced, the soldiers are still slow, shrinking their hands and feet, the auxiliaries under the city have thrown tens of thousands of sandbags into the moat, Yuan Jun's arrow cluster is sparsely shot out, and it is very uncertain, and there are some soldiers, taking advantage of the fact that the general who supervised the battle is not close, simply leaning against the female wall, pulling the bowstring a few times from time to time, making the sound of archery, but in fact, not a single arrow cluster was shot out~~

Si, noon, and Wei, for three whole hours, with the efforts of 100,000 auxiliary soldiers, the moat, which was originally forty or fifty steps wide, was really filled out of several roads more than ten zhang wide, leading directly to Shouchun City, seeing this opportunity, Cao Cao did not hesitate to use a killer weapon~~ siege vehicle!

"Roar! Roar! Roar! ”

Fifty soldiers in a group, all of them were strong men over eight feet tall and shirtless, shouting in unison, and launched siege monsters --- siege towers from the large array!

This siege tower is more than five zhang high, higher than the Shouchun city wall, divided into two layers, can load more than a dozen soldiers, equipped with wooden wheels below, surrounded by guardrails, covered with raw cowhide, ordinary weapons can not hurt it at all, and the soldiers inside can take advantage of the height advantage, wantonly shoot the enemy, and after the tower body arrives close to the city wall, the card knife hand inside can also jump over, hand-to-hand combat!

In addition to more than a dozen tall siege towers, there is also a 'siege crash car' that can be pushed by hundreds of people is also slowly pushed out!

This is definitely a giant on the battlefield, eight pairs of huge iron-clad wooden wheels, covered with two and a half feet thick solid wooden boards, wrapped in iron sheets, not to mention arrow clusters, even the general rolling wood, boulders smashed down, can not hurt it in the slightest, below is sixteen arms thick iron chains, hanging a three-zhang long spire of giant wood, the tip of the wood is also wrapped with thick iron sheets, behind are more than a dozen long and thick ropes, the soldiers pull the rope together, you can use the sharp wood to hit the city gate, the force is ten thousand, even the strong city gate, can not withstand its impact, It can be said to be a unique weapon to break the city!

"It's over, it's over!" Looking at these war monsters launched in the coalition array, as well as the cloud ladders, bed crossbows, nest cart ...... that could not be seen at a glance, Yuan Jun's hands and feet on the city wall were cold, and now everyone knows that Shouchun City can't hold it!

Seeing that all kinds of siege equipment had been moved in place, Cao Cao turned over and dismounted, throwing off the big red robe on his body, on the other side, the three brothers of the Cao family worked together to carry a huge war drum, and the strategist Guo Jia held two arm-thick drumsticks.

"Boom! …… Boom! Boom! …… All the army is attacking! "In the army of ten thousand horses, Prime Minister Cao Cao personally beat the drums and cheered, and gave the order for a general attack!
