Chapter 32 Attacking Ping'an Mengde with Troops

Cao Cao also saw Zhang Yi under the city, and it was a little difficult to see Zhang Yi's tall figure. Cao Cao really wanted to step forward and say a few words to Zhang Yi and ask him why he rebelled!

But think about it! A few days ago, Cao Zhen came back from Xiahou Yuan and told Cao Cao a guess. Cao Cao was also certified by Chen Deng and Yu Ban, and he couldn't help but think that his fate was ill-fated!

In fact, Cao Cao didn't care much about Zhang Yi killing Cao Ang and Dian Wei. The two armies are at war! There is damage that is certain, and no one can guarantee that nothing will happen.

But he also knew why Zhang Yi was like this, just like Zhang Xiu, he was also trembling when he faced Cao Cao now. Anyway, Cao Ang is Cao Cao's son, Cao Cao doesn't mind, how can Zhang Xiu and Zhang Yi not mind?

You can't have the heart to hurt others, and you can't have the heart to defend people! What's more, not everyone in the Cao family is as generous as Cao Cao!

Cao Pi, the heir re-cultivated by Cao Cao, has been haunted by this matter. When Zhang Yi first defected to the past, Cao Pi knew that he was Zhang Xiu's person, so he always wanted to deal with him.

When he was in Liyang, every time Zhang Yi went to see Cao Cao, Cao Pi would look at him with very hostile eyes. Zhang Yi was really afraid that he would let someone kill him one day, so he thought about taking Shouchun with him here after taking it. Then he found the jade seal in Shouchun, and Zhang Yi's ambition completely grew.

Although Cao Cao didn't know everything about this, he could guess seven, seven, eight, eight. Don't say that Cao Pi is hostile to Zhang Yi and Zhang Xiu, but which of these generals in his family is not hostile?

Anyway, now that he and Zhang Yi are up against, then they have to defeat him.

Cao Cao looked at the city wall, and there were only one or two thousand people. Ping'an County is relatively small, and even if there are soldiers and horses in the city, there will not be too many. As an expert in the use of soldiers, Cao Cao knew that there must be less than 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city.

Returning to the camp, Cao Cao also received a return from Tanma, and Zhang Yi actually divided the army into five parts, each of which had about four thousand.

Moreover, these five parts are quite difficult, they are all thirty or forty miles apart, and they can still support each other. Each part is garrisoned by generals, Li Jing, Shang Shifu, Gan Ning, but Zhou Tai of Shuizhai is not famous.

Cao Cao also has some difficulties, this is a long snake formation, the head and tail move, the tail moves, and the middle two ends move. The only thing Cao Cao could do was to divide his troops and let people block the reinforcements, so he could target an attack.

Xun You proposed: "Although Ping'an City is small, it is also blocked by high walls, so it is better to attack the left and right battalions first and lure Zhang Yi out of the city for a decisive battle." ”

Guo Jia also said: "Ganning should be attacked, and the only ones who can support Ganning in time are Ping'an and Shuizhai." The water village is full of water armies, and the land battle must be a little weaker, so we have more chances of winning. ”

But Xu You didn't think so, "The so-called capture of the thief and the king, Zhang Yi's army is full of morale, and he must first defeat Zhang Yi and hit his morale before he can be defeated in one fell swoop." If we are dragged by Zhang Yi and wait until Huaishui is civilized, we can only retreat. ”

Cao Cao agreed with Xu You's point of view, Xun You and Guo Jia's strategies were very good, but he didn't have that much time.

Xun You said: "According to Huaishui Kaihua, but more than a month, it is impossible to capture peace. If our army can't capture Ping'an, it will only increase Zhang Yi's arrogance. ”

Xun You's worries were very reasonable, but Xu You said sarcastically: "Xun Gongda is so timid, how can he achieve great things?" Everything is done by manpower and by the mandate of heaven, how can things be done without manpower? ”

Cao Cao hurriedly said: "Don't be annoyed, Ziyuan, Gongda is cautious." ”

Cao Cao actually thought that what Xu You said was right, if he couldn't dispel Zhang Yi's arrogance, it would be very difficult to deal with Zhang Yi in the future. If Zhang Yi develops the reputation of winning a hundred battles, his soldiers will be three points weaker before fighting, then it will be a fart!

Therefore, even if it is to suppress Zhang Yi, it is necessary to directly attack Ping'an.

"Let the craftsmen install the siege equipment as soon as possible, and we will attack Ping'an City."

Guo Jia said: "My lord, it is better to send someone to attack the water village and burn its ship, maybe it can reduce our logistical pressure!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, if he took the water village, when Huaishui was civilized, there would be no threat from Zhang Yi's army behind him, and he might be able to stay south of Huaishui for a few more days. Although it is still difficult to get through Huaishui, at least it is safe.

"Xu Huang, you lead 3,000 people to attack the water village."

"No!" Xu Huang immediately agreed.

"During the siege, Zhang Liao led 3,000 men and horses to block Master Shang and his apprentices, and Zhu Ling led 3,000 men and horses to block Gan Ning."

"No!" Zhang Liao and Zhu Ling received the order.

After the arrangements were made, Cao Cao only waited for the siege equipment to be installed. Two days later, Cao Cao began to attack the city, and more than a dozen rushing cars, crashing cars, and wells were pushed towards Ping'an City.

Zhang Yi stood on the tower and looked at it, and the cold wind blew, giving him some goosebumps on his face. The cold wind on the city wall is much colder than below, if it weren't for the fact that he has accumulated a lot of down from chickens, ducks and geese in the past two years and made a lot of down jackets, the winter would have been really difficult.

He put his hat on, and it was much better. Under the cold of winter, Zhang Yi especially misses Shouchun's warm kang. He is a man who wants temperature, and he popularized the warm facilities of the kang to the south of the Yangtze River.

Especially in the winter in the south, the inside of the house is not as hot as the outside, and it is cold in the bed. No wonder the yellow fragrance warm seat in the twenty-four filial piety is counted as one! If there is no one to warm the mat, you will be sleepy as soon as you enter the bed! This is also why rich people have warm seats, and they really don't come because they are lustful! You must know that there is no distinction between men and women who use warm mats.

Fighting in winter is very sinful, Zhang Yi has a deep understanding, so he will give the soldiers the best measures to warm up. Seeing that everyone around him was wearing down jackets, he was also very happy, it was good if he couldn't freeze.

"Ready! Archery! ”

The archers shot arrows at Cao Jun's chariot and chariot, while the crossbowmen shot arrows at Jing Yan!

The rain of arrows has passed, and the hit rate is not very good! Zhang Yi sighed in his heart, although he was warm, he was still a little unable to do it! You can't wear gloves yet, and the hit rate is even lower if you wear gloves.

Fortunately, the crossbowmen did not have much influence, and they just continued to aim after all. So they all wore gloves and shot Cao Jun on the well to death.

Cao Jun naturally counterattacked, but Cao Jun on the well fired back, only to find that the range was not enough. Hurriedly let the soldiers below push forward, and they all tried to stay behind the wooden fence.

In this way, Cao Jun will have to withstand several rounds of Zhang Yi's arrows.

Zhang Yi wanted this effect, he himself took out his bow, looked at a well a hundred paces away, and shot an arrow, and an arrow hit the wheel of its lower part.

"Cards!"

The arrow snapped, but there was only one iron arrow left on it, and as the well advanced, it got stuck on the ground.
