When Cao Wei began to cross the river to attack, because the naval army of Eastern Wu had already gone north to meet Liu Bei, the entire Yangtze River defense line was almost equal to no defense, and Dantu became the first line of defense to resist Cao Wei's entry into the interior of Eastern Wu. So the fight here is in full swing every day.

On the one hand, Cao Wei, who is already cornered, and on the other hand, Sun Quan's group, which will collapse as soon as the Dantu is broken, so both sides have done their best on this point.

However, Jiangnan is good at manipulating boats, and the army in Jiangdong is really unfamiliar with the urban offensive and defensive battles, and is almost pressed and beaten by the desperate Cao family, but fortunately, his Dantu city wall is tall, although it is always precarious, but it is all to save the day.

But the consumption of troops in the city was indeed too great, so Cheng Pu had to constantly ask Sun Quan for reinforcements to make up for this huge consumption.

Sun Quan could only continue to send troops and horses around to reinforce Cheng Pu, so that the army of Eastern Wu became a tactic to add fuel.

Cheng Pu held the sword and patrolled the city defense between battles.

The city was scorched above and below, and there were layers of corpses inside and outside the city, and the Dongwu soldiers standing on the city wall were all thin and exhausted.

Walking to a section of the city wall, I saw several soldiers throwing the corpses of several Cao soldiers out of the city, and then throwing the corpses of their own soldiers into the city.

But it is very obvious that there are not many corpses of Cao Jun, that is, three or five, but there are thirteen corpses of soldiers on his own side.

This is the difference between the northern soldiers and the southern soldiers, in terms of height or strength, they are much stronger than their own soldiers, if there is no city wall to rely on, then they are not the opponent of Cao Wei's army in the field.

Holding on to the city wall, Cheng Pu looked sadly at the Cao Wei camp outside the city that was connected to the sky.

If you continue to consume like this, sooner or later you will be destroyed by this group of desperate guys, and your Jiangdong will soon cease to exist.

At this time, Zhao Ai, the deputy general beside him, came over and whispered: "The Taishou of Wu County has just sent a messenger to report to us that Wu County has no soldiers to send now. ”

Cao Pi held the city wall with both hands and didn't say anything.

Zhao Ai reported again: "Wu County Taishou said that now there are a large number of wealthy clans and people in Jiangbei who have moved south, because he has no soldiers in his hands, he is powerless to stop, and those Central Plains people who moved south are extremely fierce, seizing villages for their own use, seizing the developed land for their own use, ignoring the officials at all, and some places have been armed by the families of those wealthy families who have gone south, attacked the county seat, drove away our officials, and replaced them with their flags, the situation is already quite serious. ”

Cheng Pu closed his eyes in pain.

Cao Wei's great migration brought people like a flood of beasts, everywhere they passed, they took the best things for themselves, and although the resistance of the southerners was also fierce, in front of these desperate guys, the final outcome could only be failure.

And in his own place, he constantly sent reinforcements from soldiers from all over the country, leaving other places to guard empty, and now the actual situation is that Cao Wei has occupied the eastern part of Jiangdong.

After a long time, Cheng Pu sighed: "How many reinforcements have we received?" ”

Zhao Aimo calculated that the lord had requisitioned a total of 300,000 troops to Danyang Wu County before and after. ”

"Let me ask you, how much did we get in total?"

Zhao Ai said bitterly: "There are less than 100,000 people who have entered Dantu City. ”

Cheng Pu fell silent again.

Cheng Pu already knew about Cao Wei's army intercepting his reinforcements outside the city, and those who were disabled had already informed him of the news.

The enemy is attacking at the point of action, and the strategy of waiting for the rabbit is a plan, but you know that this is the case, but you can't do anything, because the Dantu can't lose it, so you can only watch the enemy's plan go unplanned.

But this situation finally changed, because after being attacked many times, Jiangdong finally understood the insidiousness of the enemy, so Huang Gai and Han Dang were sent out and began to collect troops in various places, preparing to form an eastward group, with no less than 200,000 men and horses, ready to reinforce themselves.

This is good news, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief, as long as I hold on for a while, and wait until the two old brothers have formed these reinforcement groups, then I can come to the inside and outside to annihilate the opposite Cao Wei army on the Yangtze River in one fell swoop.

When I was thinking about it, there was a sudden drum beat outside the city, and as far as the eye could see, rows of Cao Wei's black soldiers from Cao Wei's enemy camp began to rush out of the barracks in array, and all kinds of ladder catapults began to swing apart, and the black pressure was overwhelming, and it was terrifying to look at.

Another offensive and defensive battle is about to begin.

Cheng Pu carefully observed the enemy's situation, but found that today was different from the past.

In the past, when the enemy attacked, the number of troops moved would not exceed 20,000 each time, but this time on his side, hastily estimated, there were 50,000 people, and in the east and west of the city, the sound of war drums was faintly heard, and there, there must be an enemy ready to attack.

This is the enemy preparing for a general offensive.

Seeing such a situation, Cheng Pu not only did not get nervous and panicked, but let out a long breath, and the decisive battle finally began.

In Cheng Pu's view, Cao Wei's sudden launch of a decisive battle shows that the situation has changed, what kind of change?

The first possibility is that the rear of the enemy is occupied, and they are already running out of food and grass.

But this is actually not seen by Cheng Pu.

The enemy's rear was occupied by the enemy, so these Cao Wei's troops had no way to retreat, and the dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, which was ready to fight desperately.

Food and grass are scarce, but not necessarily.

This time, Cao Wei moved to clean up the entire Xuzhou they occupied, and scavenged everything that could be eaten, even if the people did not leave them the only little seeds, standing here, looking at the distant pontoon bridge, there were still ant-like transport vehicles on it, and the materials were transported to Jiangnan day and night, and there was no sign of cutting off at all.

So, the remaining one may be what Cheng Pu wants to see the most, that is, they feel the pressure, where does the pressure come from? The biggest possibility is his own reinforcements, that is, the rescue group of Huang Gai and Han Dang's two old brothers has already driven over.

Persistence, as long as you hold on, then your victory will come, Cheng Pu thought so hopefully.

Although the southerners are weak, the southerners are more tenacious than the northerners, so let's compare them to see who is more tenacious.

Cheng Pu suddenly drew his sword, jumped on the city, and shouted to his soldiers: "Hold on, we will win, brothers, hold on." ”
