Cao Cao was indeed planning something. Just today, Cao Hong secretly came to the camp with a team of people, and the most mysterious captain under Cao Cao, who came with him.

It turned out that when Liu Ye was asked to build a catapult, Guo Jia suggested to Cao Cao that Cao Hong should come to help with Captain Touching Jin.

But at this moment, when the siege was blocked, Cao Cao found that Guo Jia was really far-sighted, as if he had a premonition before. With the arrival of Cao Hong's secret, Guo Jia breathed a sigh of relief. He looked in the direction of Wancheng, the corners of his mouth curled unconsciously, and then said in a low voice: "Han Fei went to prepare to dig into the city, have you thought of it?" ”

Han Fei did not stay in the city, but returned to the camp the next day. He felt that having him outside the city could make Cao Jun have some scruples. However, today, Cao's army did not attack the city, which made him feel very strange. Could it be that Cao Cao retreated in the face of difficulties, this is obviously impossible. All that's left is what he's planning! But what exactly are you planning? Han Fei couldn't have imagined it.

At this time, he sent someone to the city to inquire about Jia Xu, but there was no new news from Jia Xu's restoration of his shadow. Although Han Fei was unwilling, there was no better way, and at this moment he could only wait for Cao Cao to make another move!

Cao Cao's side really made a move, he first moved the camp directly forward twenty miles, and set up camp only ten miles away from Wancheng. However, although the camp moved forward, Cao Cao sent a team of cavalry to patrol outside the camp all day long to prevent the Wancheng and Jingzhou armies from robbing the camp.

Later, in the camp, Cao Cao instructed Cao Hong to build several large tents together, and then began to dig tunnels in the big tents. Zhang Yuren is as white as his name, but he is one of the three leaders of Cao Hong's Captain Jin. He is the one who came to Wancheng today to lead the team.

At this moment, Zhang Yu was standing in the big tent and directing his subordinates to dig the earth, and at the same time propped up the wood prepared in advance in the hole, and then asked people to use torches to burn the walls of the hole harder, all to prevent collapse. Since Cao Hong was ordered to form the Touching Gold School Captain, there have already been more than 100 tombs under this jade. Digging a hole has long been a familiar thing, but this time it was Cao Cao himself who ordered it, so he had to be very careful.

At this moment, the curtain of the big tent opened, and Cao Hong walked in. He saw Zhang Yu nodding his head and said, "How is it?" ”

"Great Commander, it's been five hundred meters of digging." Zhang Yu arched his hand at Cao Hong. Cao Hong frowned when he heard this: "Did you only dig five hundred meters in one afternoon?" ”

Zhang Yu sighed and said: "Great Commander, don't you brothers don't use their strength, it's really that the soil in this place is soft, and in order to be afraid of landslides, you have to erect wooden beams every ten meters, and then you have to bake the roof and wall of the cave hard........."

Cao Hong waved his hand and said, "I don't want to listen to excuses, I'll ask you now how many days will it take for you to dig into the city?" ”

Zhang Yu thought about it and stretched out three fingers, Cao Hong looked at it and said, "Well, if you haven't dug out the passage after three days, you all know what the consequences will be!" When Zhang Yu heard Cao Gong's words, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he spoke: "Don't worry, the commander, I will definitely guarantee to complete the task." ”

Cao Hong looked at him, didn't speak, turned around and left the big tent. After Cao Hong left, Zhang Yu wiped a handful of cold sweat from his head, and he shouted to the tunnel: "Sun Wu, a few of you come up, and I will take people down." ”

Cao Hong returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, and Cao Cao looked up and asked, "How is going on over there?" ”

"It will take three days to return to the lord!" Cao Hong replied truthfully.

"Three days? Can it be shortened even more? Cao Cao stared at Cao Hong and asked.

Cao Hong was embarrassed: "The soil here is soft, and in order to fear the collapse, I have to erect wooden beams every ten meters, and then I have to ...... the roof and wall of the cave."

"Okay, don't tell me this, I'll ask you if you can shorten it by one more day, dig a passage in two days, and send the army directly into Wancheng City?" Cao Cao asked by tapping his finger on the desk.

Cao Hong was obviously a little impatient when he saw Cao Cao's appearance, so he gritted his teeth and said, "Please rest assured, the lord will definitely be able to dig through the passage in the evening in two days." ”

"Okay, Fengxiao, the night after tomorrow is the time to take Wancheng. What do you think? Cao Cao turned his head and asked Guo Jiadao.

Guo Jia smiled and said, "The lord still has to send people to attack the city tomorrow." Otherwise, I'm afraid that Han Fei will be suspicious.

Cao Cao nodded after hearing this: "In this way, tomorrow it will still be Mancheng to lead the army to attack the city!" Cao Cao decided that Guo Jia would naturally not refute. So the next day, Li Dian brought people to attack the city again.

Of course, before the siege of the city, the catapult had already launched two rounds, and Zhang Ji did not send people to repair the city wall after yesterday. So with the bombardment of catapults, the gap in the wall became bigger and bigger.

Li Dian ordered all the soldiers to rush in through the gap with thickened shields. Zhang Ji followed Han Fei's strategy and used large stones to build many obstacles in the city to block Cao's cavalry. Not only can the cavalry march with great difficulty, but so will the infantry. As more and more people entered the city, the speed of travel suddenly slowed down.

At this time, when the soldiers in front of them came to the street, the crossbowmen on the roofs began to fire their crossbow arrows. The thickened wooden shield did block the first wave of crossbow arrows, but before they could be happy, the second wave of crossbow arrows came again. Although the wooden shield was thick, it could not protect their whole body, and many of them fell to the ground with arrows in their legs and feet.

As more and more people fell to the ground, the soldiers who entered the city did not dare to go any further. Li Dian still didn't have a good way to see it. In the face of the overwhelming rain of arrows, no one dared to say that they passed here unscathed.

Seeing that it was pointless to stay any longer, Li Dian waved his hand and retreated like a tide. Watching Cao Jun retreat, Zhang Ji said to Jia Xu with a smile on his face: "Sir, Cao Jun has retreated again." I'm afraid that Cao Cao can't think of a way to pass through our repeater array! ”

Jia Xu watched Cao Jun retreat but thoughtfully, he turned his head and asked Zhang Jidao, "How many people are attacking today?" ”

Zhang Ji thought for a while and replied, "There are almost 10,000 people. ”

Jia Xu nodded and said, "In this way, then Cao Cao didn't plan to take the city through here at all!" What is he planning? ”

In the Cao army camp, Li Dian came to hand over the order in frustration. Cao Cao heard him talk about the siege of the city, and immediately comforted him: "Man Cheng doesn't have to be depressed, there are still two days before this Wancheng will be broken!" That's where your chance comes in. ”

One more, ask for a monthly pass, ask for a recommendation, ask for a collection, ask for a reward. Recently, the growth of subscriptions has been too slow, and I would like to ask you to help spread the word. Little military master Han Fei is here to thank you!
