Like an ant, a piece of black pressure came from the sky, overwhelming, terrifying and abnormal.

This is the scene in the eyes of the defenders at the head of Xuchang City, and everyone's scalp is numb.

Not long ago, some people shouted that the people of Jingzhou were a group of weak barbarian people, and they did not dare to face the imperial court head-on, but now this scene made everyone's hearts shake violently, completely subverting their cognition.

This is the soldier of Jingzhou? This is Jingzhou's strength?

As the highest power figure in Xuchang, Cheng Yu stood at the head of the city for the first time, his face was gloomy as ink, like a cloud overhead.

The "ant colony" in the distance slowly approached, and finally became a shaking human head in the eyes of everyone, the armor was neat, the formation was condensed, and there was not much scattering even in the march. Half an hour later, it finally stopped three miles outside the city.

Soldiers, like a torrent of steel, stand still, like a giant reef at the bottom of the river.

"Zilian, if it's you, how long can you hold it?" Cheng Yu asked in a deep voice, as if he was speaking to the void in front of him.

Cao Hong stepped forward from behind him and said, "Half Moon!" Half a month later, Hong didn't dare to say! ”

Cheng Yu suddenly turned around: "What if you add the people in the city?" ”

Cheng Yu looked at Cao Hong with cold eyes, and his cold gaze made Cao Hong very uncomfortable, Cao Hong suddenly lifted his breath and said, "Ten days!" ”

"Huh?" Cheng Yu's eyes were even colder, and Cao Hong felt some pain in his face.

"Among the capitals, there are about 500,000 people, but most of them are people from large and small families, each with their own thoughts, not only can they not work together to resist the enemy, but they may also turn against the enemy and open the door to thieves!"

"A month! Stick to it for a month, you are not guilty, insufficient, you raise your head to see Wei Gong! Cheng Yu said unceremoniously.

Cao Hong's mouth was bitter, but he also knew how important Xuchang was, once the city was broken, it would have an extremely significant impact on the entire Central Plains and even the overall situation of the world, and the world would inevitably undergo great changes again, and the Cao family would inevitably plummet and would no longer be able to control the situation in the world.

"Hong did his best!"

Cheng Yu suddenly reprimanded angrily: "As a general, you are so cowardly, how can you still meet the enemy." If you are facing the lord, do you dare to speak like this? ”

Cao Hong gritted his teeth and suddenly knelt to the ground to the north: "Lord, Cao Hong swears here that he will definitely hold Xu Du for a month, even if it is one day short, he is willing to die with Xu Du!" ”

Cao Hong's words touched many people around him, and they all knelt facing the north: "I am willing to die with Xu Du!" ”

Cheng Yu nodded with a little satisfaction, the morale of the defenders, who had just been depressed due to fear, had improved slightly, and they were all engrossed in watching the enemy troops in the distance, for fear that one would be attacked by the city without paying attention. Although everyone knows that this kind of worry is redundant, but they can't stop the fear in their hearts, they have to be like this, even if Cao Hong orders them to go back to sleep at this moment, they don't feel sleepy.

The clouds were gathering, and the Jingzhou army outside the city continued to arrive, for a whole day, it was still like this, and it seemed endless.

In the blink of an eye, Cheng Yu and Cao Hong went to the city again, and couldn't help but gasp. I saw that a few miles away from the south gate, the enemy camp that stretched for miles was brilliantly lit, shining like day. Under the firelight, the walls were forested, the flags were fluttering, and the military appearance was very terrifying.

Obviously, the Jingzhou army is full of people who have mastered the essentials of military aircraft, otherwise there would be no such neat military village. The two looked at each other, and both saw the shock and horror in each other's eyes.

In the distance south of the city, the torches lit by the Jingzhou army from afar were like long dragons, winding on the roads everywhere, slowly advancing towards the enemy camp, and more troops were entering the city.

The Jingzhou army was extremely powerful, which made the defenders of Xuchang City extremely heavy, which was also the strategy mentioned in a secret letter that Fa Zheng asked Zhang Fei to bring to Pang Tong.

The Jingzhou army outside the city was actually not as many as Cheng Yu and Cao Hong saw, but only about 50,000 people led by Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, Zhao Yun and others.

The rest of the people were led by Guan Ping, Zhou Cang, Yin Li and other generals, each holding four torches, two people in a row, coming slowly, just to give the Xuchang defenders a sense of momentum and difficult to resist. It is also the four big characters that Fa Zheng gave to Pang Tong, "bullying people".

Obviously, Pang Tong understood the meaning of Fazheng, and there was such a big show.

As for the camp outside the city, there are already a large number of people, and the generals of the Jingzhou Army are even more in accordance with the military order, the camp is more polite, the false flag is erected, and from a distance, it is really lined up, and the feathers are forested.

But this trick is not just a pretense to scare people, Liu Yong is coming, there are still 30,000 troops around him, once these horses arrive, they also need to camp, but they just stand up early, but the terrifying atmosphere created by this is extremely amazing.

As for Cao Hong's desire to explore the camp, it was basically hopeless, so he quietly sent out five waves of scouts in the city, and no one came back until dawn.

You know, the normal establishment of a team of scouts is fifty people, and the five waves are a full two hundred and fifty people, and there is no one who has come back, what does it mean?

Now Xuchang is a lonely city!

At the south gate, which was not besieged by anyone, it was also temporarily blocked by Zhao Yun, and the scouts who came secretly before and after were all broken in the hands of the ambushers, and a few agile people who wanted to escape back on horseback could not escape the strong bow in Zhao Yun's hand, and none of them were spared.

For two consecutive days, the news that the whole city of Xuchang was besieged finally spread throughout the entire Xuchang City, even if Cheng Yu and Cao Hong desperately blocked the news, it was to no avail, the entire Xuchang City began to be immersed in a dull low pressure, no one laughed, no one made noise, and even the voice was subconsciously lowered when speaking, and everyone seemed to be worried that the loud voice would lead to some unpredictable disasters.

After three days, Gao Ran finally arrived with Hou Cheng, Lu Su and 10,000 horses.

All the generals gathered, the stars in the big tent were shining, and looking at it, there were no famous generals in the world, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun, Gao Lan, Zang Ba, not counting Gan Ning, who was sitting in Yuzhang, Huang Zhong, who was expanding his territory in Xichuan, Wei Yan and Zhang, who had already guarded Hanzhong, and even Pang Tong never thought that Jingzhou would have such a glorious day, and he couldn't help but be full of pride.

"Everyone!" Pang Tong Zhengse bowed to all the civil and military forces, "Although the lord has not yet arrived, Xuchang has become a turtle in the urn, but this is the key point of Cao Thief, it is difficult to ensure that he sent his generals to come secretly, so you must not be careless, don't reverse Yuan's original mistakes!" ”

Pang Tong convened everyone, not because there were many major military discussions, but to inspire everyone again. After all, Cao Cao's concept of great power has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and people can no longer have the idea of wavering.

Seeing all the civil and military generals gathered in the big tent, everyone was suddenly angry and full of emotion in their hearts.
