818, Cao Cao, who intended to resist to the death

At the narrow staircase passage leading from the city wall of the urn city to the bottom of the city, there were only a dozen or twenty soldiers in front of Zhu Weijun who could charge in formation.

However, Cao's army was able to set up hundreds of people in a formation, surrounded in the open space in front of the staircase walkway, and used various weapons and defensive means to prevent Zhu Wei's army from killing under the city.

Under such a manpower comparison, Zhu Weijun naturally couldn't break through Cao Jun's obstacle for a while.

Before this staircase walkway, Cao Jun's soldiers pushed up a tiger car knife wall full of blades, which was like a moving wall, forcing Zhu Weijun to retreat step by step, and no one dared to face the Sensen blade on the knife wall.

Even a fierce general like Tai Shici could hardly break through the sword wall pushed by dozens of Cao soldiers in the rear with his personal strength at this moment.

Therefore, Tai Shici temporarily retreated into the rear army formation, and then commanded the thrower who controlled the thunderbolt palm thunder, looking for an opportunity to throw the palm thunder behind the knife wall, and blew up the Cao soldiers holding the tiger car knife wall in the rear.

In this way, let the sword and shield hand step forward and use the shield against the blade on the wall, and work together to push away the blocking surface formed by the wall of these tiger car knives, so as to push out a gap that can pass people.

Tai Shi Ci was able to find an opportunity to pass through the gap, kill the Cao army formation behind the Huche knife wall, kill the Cao army soldiers in the rear, and open a bloody path for the soldiers behind him, so that Zhu Weijun could rush to the city wall.

It's just that this method is easy to say, but it's still very difficult to really do.

There were also a lot of archers on Cao's side, and at this moment, they were constantly throwing feather arrows at the Zhu Weijun piled up on the city wall, forcing the Zhu Weijun to form a shield formation to protect each other and resist the sneak attack of the feather arrows.

In this way, Zhu Weijun's thunderbolt palm thunder throwers also need to guard against the cold arrows of Cao Jun's archers when throwing palm thunder, so as not to let the palm thunder fall in their own dense military formation, so they must be protected by the sword and shield hands around them to throw palm thunder.

At the same time, it was not easy for Zhu Wei's saber and shield hands to get close to those tiger car knife walls, and many Cao soldiers would also use their spears to pass through the holes specially left in the tiger car knife wall, and stab at the hearts of Zhu Wei's soldiers who rushed up.

In addition, some Cao soldiers would climb behind the wall of the Tiger Knife Wall, condescendingly wave the long halberd in their hands, smash the heads of the Zhu Wei soldiers who rushed up from top to bottom, and pierce the defenseless throats of the Zhu Wei soldiers with their sharp blades.

As a result, in this narrow staircase corridor area leading to the city wall, the soldiers of both sides were entangled for no less than half an hour, and Zhu Weijun could be regarded as opening a passage for Tai Shi Ci, so that Tai Shi Ci could kill the Cao army formation behind the tiger knife wall.

Next, Tai Shi Ci rushed to the hundreds of Cao army formations regardless of life and death, and killed dozens of Cao troops around him with great courage and courage, only to force back the Cao army's encircled military formation, so that the Zhu Wei soldiers in the rear had the opportunity to follow Tai Shi Ci to rush down the city wall and enter the Cao army's formation, and finally broke through the Cao army's blocking formation here.

Then the soldiers of Zhu Weijun could finally rush down from the city wall to the city, completely defeating the Cao army under the city wall.

Zhu Weijun killed the trebuchet in the city wall at the first time, killed the Cao army here, and overthrew the trebuchet one after another, so that the follow-up Zhu Weijun did not have to worry about the threat of falling rocks after rushing to the city wall.

At this time, the net prepared by Zhu Weijun had already been destroyed.

It can be said that later, the soldiers who rushed up to Zhu Weijun in the follow-up were against the rocks that could fall down at any time on their heads, desperately rushing forward to kill their companions who supported the front.

Of course, with the expansion of the scope of Zhu Weijun's attack on the city wall, the range of falling stones that the catapults in the city can throw is also limited, so as long as the soldiers who Zhu Weijun rushed up to kill only passed those death areas, they did not have to worry about the problem of falling stones, and they could rush up to kill Cao Jun with peace of mind.

And after Zhu Weijun completely killed the Puyang city wall and destroyed those catapults, everything would not be a problem.

In terms of combat effectiveness, Zhu Weijun's soldiers are obviously stronger than Cao Jun's soldiers, not to mention that now, as the first troops, they are also veterans of a hundred battles who have experienced many wars in the Taishi Cishen Arrow Battalion, which naturally makes it difficult for Cao Jun, who are not the main elite soldiers, to resist.

Therefore, the soldiers of Cao's army, who were originally gathered in the East City Gate District, quickly retreated to the city along the main street of Puyang Dongcheng under Cao Cao's military order.

At this time, Cao Cao also led people to retreat into the second line of defense in Puyang City after Zhu Weijun killed the city wall, which can also be regarded as the inner city of Puyang City, and there is still a city wall to protect here.

Since Zhu Weijun broke through the outer city wall of Puyang City, it was completely possible to reach several other city wall areas of Puyang City through the city wall, so Cao Jun's control of the outer city wall of Puyang City could be regarded as a complete collapse.

However, Cao Cao also expected this, so he led his troops to retreat directly to the old city or inner city of Puyang City, and he could still use his previous arrangements to continue to resist one or two in the city.

In the neighborhoods of Puyang City, Cao Cao transformed a lot of war fortresses, which could station his troops and block the offensive of Zhu Wei's army step by step in the city, Cao Cao was still unwilling to lose, and continued to command his army, preparing to fight with Zhu Wei's army in Puyang City.

It can be said that there are no ordinary people living in Puyang City today, and the entire city has been transformed into a war fortress by Cao Cao, so even if Zhu Weijun breaks through the outer city wall, he still has to capture all blocks of Puyang City inch by inch.

This Puyang city is located in ancient times called the emperor's hill, it is said that one of the five emperors had taken this as the capital, in the spring and autumn period, Wei Chenggong moved the capital of the emperor's hill (that is, where the Puyang city is today), so Puyang city became the political, economic and cultural center of the country, at least after four hundred years.

Since then, Puyang has always been the seat of Yanzhou East County, so the population and city size of Puyang City can be regarded as one of the most densely populated areas in the world.

Now Cao Cao took Puyang City as his last position to resist Zhu Wei's army, and naturally he also had preliminary preparations, and the ordinary population of Puyang City was basically relocated by Cao Cao, leaving behind Qingzhuang and soldiers.

The scale of Puyang City also allowed Cao Cao to carefully construct the inner defense line of the city, and the area where the original Weiguo Palace was located in Puyang City also became the inner city of Puyang City, which was also the last fortress that Cao Cao thought of after the outer city was breached, and he could retreat into the inner city to resist to the death.

Of course, the inner city of Puyang City naturally could not have the scale of the outer city wall, that is, the height of two or three stories, the thickness of seven or eight steps wide, but Cao Cao could still occupy some defensive advantages.

It's just that Cao Cao has the heart to play street battles with Zhu Weijun in Puyang City, after all, even the outer city wall can be broken through by Zhu Weijun, how long can this inner city last.

Therefore, Cao Cao looked for the original buildings and courtyards in various blocks in the city and transformed them into military fortresses, but it could also resolve many of the advantages of Zhu Wei's siege equipment, and also allow Cao's soldiers to gain some defensive advantages, so as to narrow the gap between the combat effectiveness of the soldiers on both sides.

Cao Cao was never willing to let Zhu Wei easily capture Puyang, he must let Zhu Wei bleed a lot here, even if Cao Cao was defeated in the end, but Zhu Wei had to pay a great price.

Of course, if Zhu Wei felt a little headache and could take the initiative to retreat, instead of not forcibly gnawing at the Puyang City constructed by Cao Cao, then Cao Cao would also be able to survive.

Although the time it took for Zhu Wei to break through the outer city of Puyang was still beyond Cao Cao's expectations, Cao Cao still felt that he could continue to delay time with the defense of the city.

But what will Zhu Wei do in the face of such a Puyang City......
