After listening to Zhang Wu's words, Wu Liren couldn't help but stroking his palms and laughing, got up and said to Zhang Wu: "Wensheng is really resourceful, this plan is very good, then follow this plan." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Wu Liren sent an order to Guo Kan, asking him to make a feint from the east of Shouchun, and ordered Zhao Yun to lead 5,000 troops and horses to make a feint from the west of Shouchun. Wu Liren and Ran Min took the rest of the soldiers and horses to ambush along the Huai River, waiting for Cao Cao's army.

But after a few days, the Huai River was calm, and he didn't see Cao Cao's soldiers at all. After the spies investigated, they found that Cao Jun had been transferred out of Ruyin County and headed for Nanyang County, and was now confronting Liu Biao's army.

This made Wu Liren completely blind, Cao Cao didn't want to compete with himself for longevity, right? There must be a problem in this, but it is impossible for his army to stay on the bank of the Huai River all the time.

"Lord, since Cao Jun inadvertently competed for Shouchun, it is better to concentrate his forces as soon as possible and capture Shouchun in the fastest time, even if Cao Cao wants to take it again, he will not have another chance."

Ran Min saw Wu Liren's very hesitant look, and he expressed his opinion again.

"Cao Cao is indeed a bit unpredictable, and I don't know what to do for a while. Wensheng, do you have any thoughts? ”

"Drop! Detected Zhang Wu's skill martial arts trigger, force +5, intelligence -10, the current Zhang Wu force increased to 94, intelligence decreased to 82. ”

Why did Zhang Wu trigger Wuju at this time? Could it be that his temper was not controlled because his prediction was not accurate?

Before Wu Liren could figure it out, Zhang Wu stepped forward and replied, "What General Ran said is extremely true! Now that the Cao army is no longer eyeing Shouchun, it is pointless for the army to ambush here. It is better to take Shouchun as soon as possible and defend the city, so that even if Cao Cao wants to capture Shouchun in the future, he can only look at the city and sigh. ”

Now it seems that there is no other choice, Wu Liren issued the order to withdraw the army, and at the same time let people pay attention to the movements of Cao's army at all times, and report it immediately if there is any trouble.

When Wu Liren led the army to Shouchun City again, Guo Kan had already sent someone to report the siege of the city.

The solidity of Shouchun City far exceeded expectations, and Wu Liren did not have any effective siege methods at this time, so if he wanted to break Shouchun, he was afraid that it would be difficult to complete it in a short time.

Although Wu Liren has indeed captured many cities in recent years, he has probably only captured Quanjiao purely by force. It took about a year before and after the whole pepper city, interspersed with various events and battles of different scales. Although there are not many soldiers and horses in Shouchun City, the solidity of the city is far from being comparable to that of Quanjiao. Moreover, the grain and grass in Shouchun are enough for the soldiers and civilians of Shouchun City for a year, and it is really not an easy task to capture it. At this time, Wu Liren seemed to understand why Cao Cao wanted to withdraw from the competition for Shouchun. Even if Cao Cao let Wu Liren attack, it would be a difficult battle.

"Now that our army has come to the city, do you have any good strategies to break the city?"

There was no way, Wu Liren had to convene everyone again to discuss and see what good way to capture Shouchun.

"My lord, the last general is willing to personally lead a large army to attack the city!"

Ran Min asked for orders to attack the city, Wu Liren looked at the others hesitantly, and at this time, Zhao Yun also got up and said: "Since the lord wants to break Shouchun City, he must fight quickly, otherwise the Cao army will return to the division, and our army will be in an even more disadvantageous position." Moreover, the consumption of food for our army is huge, and if it is delayed for a long time, it will be unfavorable to the army. The last general also agreed to attack Shouchun. ”

Wu Liren finally made up his mind, and said: "Then tomorrow will attack Shouchun, everyone, tomorrow's battle will be very dangerous, you must not be careful." ”

At the same time, Wu Liren still decided to write down the situation on the Shouchun battlefield in detail and send it to Xiapi, so that Wang Shouren could also refer to it together, maybe he would have a different opinion.

On the second day, Wu Liren personally led the army to Shouchun City, followed by Ran Min, Zhao Yun, General, Zhang Wu, Hua Rong, etc., Wu Liren was wearing a special red brocade robe, wearing a white tasseled silver helmet, and under the seat was a blue-eyed black-maned galloping horse, holding a tiger tooth gun, and the end was majestic. I saw Wu Lirence immediately take a few steps forward and shouted loudly to the city wall: "Yuan Shu's general trend has gone, why should you resist the righteous army with this thief, if you still have to resist stubbornly, wait until the day the city is broken, you will inevitably turn into powder, it is better to surrender the city earlier, it is not too late to know that you are lost!" ”

At this moment, a person walked out of the city wall, took out a bow and arrow, and shot at Wu Liren. Seeing this, the generals behind him were shocked: "Lord be careful! ”

Hua Rong's eyes were quick, and he immediately shot an arrow with his bow, and was facing the arrow shot from the city wall; And when Hua Rong collected his bow and looked at it again, he found that there was another arrow that was shot one step faster than him, and he had already taken the first step to shoot the bow and arrow from Shouchun City directly away. Hua Rong looked sideways and saw that it was Zhao Yun.

Wu Liren laughed and said: "It's just a dark arrow, what can you do to me!" After speaking, Wu Liren grabbed the tiger tooth gun with one hand, pointed forward, and shouted: "Siege!" ”

With an order, Ran Min and Zhao Yun each led 5,000 people and rushed to Shouchun City from both sides. On the city wall, there were Liang Shitai, Gong Du, Yang Hong, and Yuan Shu's son Yuan Yao, each commanding the defenders, staring at Wu Liren's army.

When the army rushed to the range of the archers, the feather arrows all over the sky shot towards the army of Wu Liren under the city, and the soldiers who rushed in front held shields, however, they could not protect their bodies, and people kept falling in front, but all the soldiers still rushed without hesitation. The soldiers who rushed to the city wall, someone erected a ladder, at this time, the rolling stones and trees on the city wall were thrown down one after another, and bursts of screams and painful wails resounded in the sky.

Ran Min and Zhao Yun rushed in front, and the two of them led to climb the ladder, but the oncoming boulder bowl mouth thick wood fell from the sky, and the two had no choice but to jump down again and dodge. Although Wu Liren's soldiers were elite, they were still unable to break through the defense of Yuan's army and climb to the city wall.

The siege was fierce, and Wu Liren naturally knew that Cao Cao had launched several siege battles several times, which made Wu Liren remember it vividly; But at the beginning, I was the defender of the city, and now, as the besieging party, I realize how painful the siege is. Seeing the soldiers under his command fall one by one, Wu Liren seemed to be bleeding from his heart.

The battle lasted for more than an hour, and seeing that the army had suffered heavy casualties, Wu Liren decisively gave the order to withdraw the troops. In this battle, the army lost nearly 3,000 people, and killed less than 1,000 enemies, which was the highest battle loss ratio when Wu Liren started his army.

This siege made Shouchun feel like he had taken a dose of reassurance, and the morale of the entire Yuan army was unprecedentedly high.

Yuan Yao returned to the palace and happily reported to Yuan Shu about today's battle, but after Yuan Shu listened, he didn't have any excited expression, just nodded and encouraged Yuan Yao: "The prince has worked hard!" ”

Yuan Yao was puzzled, "Why didn't my father look a little happy?" ”

"Don't you hear of Seon losing his horse? Even if Wu Ming's attack was repelled today, in the end, this lonely city was still difficult to defend for a long time; When the city is broken on the other day, today's victory is the basis for Wu Mingqiu's settlement on the day the city is broken, so what is there to be happy about?
