"The last general is incompetent! Please punish King Wei! Xu Yuanlang, who returned to the camp to serve as the first attacker, was in tattered clothes and covered in blood; Poof, he knelt down and pleaded guilty.

"The enemy's bow and arrow are too powerful, what is General Xu's crime? Besides, today is just a temptation, I already have a way to deal with them, General Xu doesn't have to blame himself, please hurry up. ”

Li Mi asked Xu Yuanlang to get up, and then said to everyone: "The enemy has a powerful bow and arrow, and we can't fight with it." Tomorrow, everyone will cut down trees and make trebuchets to suppress the enemy; Then use siege vehicles and building vehicles as cover to continue the siege. And they did as they were commanded, and went down every man to prepare.

A few days later, Li Mi built the siege equipment and came to the city again to storm Caozhou. Duan Zhixuan looked at the city and laughed: "Li Mi is poor!" Let them see how powerful our catapults are! ”

The Wagang army had just entered the battlefield pushing catapults and siege engines; Suddenly, I heard a "woo" above my head, and something was whistling.

"Boom!" Huge and dense stones fell from the sky, "Boom! There was a loud "crackling" sound, and the catapults and siege engines of the Wagang Army were quickly shattered to pieces.

At this time, the Wagang army was frightened, and they panicked one by one and didn't know whether to advance or retreat.

"Firebomb fire!" Duan Zhixuan roared, and pieces of firelight flew away with thick black smoke.

"Boom!" These bombs were made up of clay pots filled with tung oil, and the outside was wrapped with hemp rope soaked in fire oil; After being ignited, it dragged a long tail of flame across the sky.

The fire pot hit the ground and burst with a bang, then ignited; A sea of fire within a radius of a few zhang; The Wagang army can't be extinguished at all; Soon became a living person.

"Ahh The formation is in disarray. Duan Zhixuan looked at the city and laughed. Li Mi withdrew his troops back to the camp with a pale face.

Duan Zhixuan asked people to be on guard, and after returning to the city, he did not rest, but patrolled around; A conversation between a couple caught his attention.

"It's really strange, the water level of the well has been dropping continuously for the past few days, and our ropes are almost out of reach."

Duan Zhixuan's head slammed, and he secretly shouted: "Not good! What a cunning Li Mi! I didn't expect that I still underestimated you, and actually gave me a plank road to repair the plank road and Chen Cang in the dark! Come back to camp! ”

After returning to the camp, Duan Zhixuan ordered the empty water tank to be buckled upside down and buried half in the ground; The arranger listens at all times. In the evening, someone finally reported that there was a strange sound of knocking under the eastern city.

Duan Zhixuan snorted coldly, led people to the place of the accident, and then ordered someone to dig a trench horizontally, and stepped forward to boil boiling water with a cauldron.

In the middle of the night, there was a bang, and a piece of the trench suddenly protruded; Then I heard a god say, "How did you dig it out?" Let's get out and see what's going on? ”

Then the breach grew bigger and bigger, and with a bang, a large hole appeared, and out of it came a soldier wearing a Wagang uniform. As soon as he came out, he saw that the lights were bright outside; Someone was looking at them with a smile.

"It's not good to have enemies! We've been discovered, go back! ”

"It's too late to run! Pour! With that, the boiling water in the iron pot rumbled down at once. Immediately, there was a terrible howl below.

After a long time there was no sound below; After waiting for a while, Duan Zhixuan felt that the water was almost seeping; Then let his subordinates go down with bows and arrows to check. As a result, there was a terrifying corpse below, and the remaining Wagang army had already fled.

Duan Zhixuan ordered the tunnel to be sealed with stones; Fill in the good ditches; Arrange for someone to continue monitoring and then return to the camp to rest.

Li Mi received a report from the soldiers who had fled back, and knew that the stratagem was seen through by the enemy; He didn't rush and smiled: "Okay! This time it's Duan Zhixuan's luck, see how I win him later. ”

In the next few days, Li Mi only tentatively attacked Caozhou, and did not attack the city with all his might; This made Duan Zhixuan worried; He discussed with Wang Wendu and others for several days, and he didn't know what medicine was sold in Li Mi's gourd.

Wang Wendu said: "Chief, is this Li Mi trapped us here, and plans to send troops to attack the county towns around us and surround us from all sides." ”

Duan Zhixuan frowned and thought for a while, "I don't rule out this possibility." So be it! Wendu, you led 5,000 people to garrison Juye County; Wang Hu led 5,000 people to garrison Dongming County to prevent Li Mi from sneaking up on our left and right wings. ”

The two of them agreed, went out and left. Duan Zhixuan ordered his subordinates to be on guard, but there was still no movement for several days.

Just when he was confused, the Wagang army outside the city suddenly launched a fierce attack. Their whole army was dispatched, with shields in front and archers in the rear.

Duan Zhixuan didn't care about what he was suspicious of, and came to the city to direct the battle; The Great Demon Kingdom fired thousands of arrows, and the catapult also kept throwing stone bullets and fire bombs; It gave the Wagang army a lot of damage.

Today's Wagang army seems to be stimulated, and they carry a bag on their backs; rushed forward with all his life, came to the city, threw down his pocket, turned around and ran.

Duan Zhixuan was secretly surprised, and said in his heart: "Why are these people carrying these bags with their lives?" The moat of Caozhou has long been filled. Do they still want to make a mountain of dirt? Not good! Destroy these dirt bags for me! ”

Duan Zhixuan thought of a possibility, and turned pale with fright; Anxious shouting. However, the speed of the Wagang army was extremely fast, and the defense was tight, and these dirt bags were not afraid of fire and water; In less than a day, the Kung Fu Wagang Army built a dirt slope almost equal to Caozhou City.

"It's a big deal!" Li Mi laughed, he shouted, and the Wagang army rushed up the dirt slope, and then put down the pedal to connect with Caozhou City.

"Kill!" Uncle Wang took the lead with a silver spear in his hand and killed him first. Duan Zhixuan was also anxious, he mobilized all the personnel, bows and arrows, thunderbolts, and oil jars smashed towards the enemy without life.

The Wagang army was also not afraid of death, they had just been cleared a large area, and they rushed up again with the strength of the crowd.

In particular, although Wang Bodang and other generals were injured, they still fought in front and did not retreat; Covering and motivating the follow-up troops, they rushed forward.

Li Mi ordered the chariots to move forward to the front line to command the battle, and they took the hillside as the main road, supplemented by the ladder building car, and the ram kept attacking Caozhou City.

The battle continued into the evening, and the two sides were still strangled at the head of the city, and neither of them advanced a single step.

Li Mi ordered: "Beat the drum!" If you don't break through Caozhou today, you vow not to withdraw troops! Duan Zhixuan roared angrily: "Beat the drum!" Assault of the whole army! If you don't have casualties, you must put it down! ”

"Kill!" Both sides were red-eyed and devoted themselves to the fight; The corpses above and below the walls were pounced on a thick layer; The plasma under his feet was trampled and fluttered.

Just when the two armies were fighting desperately in Dongcheng, an army suddenly came to the west of Caozhou. They are under the banner of the Great Demon Country, and they are wearing the clothes of the Great Demon Kingdom. The general led by the leader went to the city and shouted: "Listen to the people of the city! We are the ranks of the Shanzi Division, the 5th Regiment, the 3rd Battalion. I came to Caozhou to help on the order of the demon king Chitose. ”

Now most of the people in Caozhou are concentrated in the east, and there is only one battalion of about 500 people stationed in the west. They heard the shouts and looked down with torches, and sure enough, it was their own team below.

The first general raised the horse lance in his hand and said, "What? Still don't believe us? Brothers, bright guys, let them see! ”

"Boom!" The blue crossbow machine in the hands of these people was raised. Zhao Cheng, the battalion commander guarding the city, breathed a sigh of relief and said: "It's really your own people, let them come in Kaicheng!" We're short of manpower, so let's help! ”

"Yes!" His men quickly opened the gates; Zhao Cheng led people down to greet him. The general outside the city smiled coldly and urged the horse into the city.

The two armies met at the gate of the city, and Zhao Cheng suddenly found that the other party's clothes were stained with dried blood; Some are still in tatters; But the knight on the horse was in good spirits, and it was obvious that the clothes had been stripped from the corpse.

"Oh no, I've been tricked!" Zhao Cheng thought of this and found that the enemy had rushed across the drawbridge; He screamed: "Enemy attack! They are enemies! As he spoke, he rushed forward desperately; His soldiers closed the city gates without saying a word.

The enemy's general rushed forward, and the horse lance in his hand stabbed out like lightning, and with a pop, Zhao Cheng was picked under the horse. Then he rushed into the position of the Great Demon Army.

"Kill!" The two armies fought over the city gates; "Boom!" "Boom!" Thunderbolts were thrown into enemy positions; The bombed sneak attack army hid in Tibet; The soldiers of the Great Demon Kingdom took the opportunity to close the city gates.

"Open it for me!" A burly general rushed forward; A 300-pound Yanling thirteen songs in his hand were rounded and smashed the city gate.

"Dang!" There was a loud bang, and the gates that were closing were smashed and trembled; The soldiers who had closed the door were shaken and rolled down; The army from outside rushed into the city gates.

"Fight with them!" The 500 Great Demon Kingdom soldiers stationed at the city gate rushed to the enemy like crazy, so that the enemy who rushed into the city gate could not rush in for a while, and the two armies formed an anxious state at the city gate.

Duan Zhixuan, who was fighting with Li Mi, suddenly heard the explosion of the West Gate, and was frightened. How could Simon have a fight? Where is this army? I can be sure that this is not Li Mi's army! So where did they come from.

It was Li Jiancheng's army that came; After receiving Li Mi's report, Li Jiancheng knew that the army on the left was completely annihilated, and he faced Cheng Zhijie with little victory. He resolutely decided to join forces with Li Mi to jointly attack the Great Demon Kingdom.

After making the decision, Li Jiancheng used a suspicious tactic and quietly evacuated the area of Liuxian into Caozhou. This time, even Cheng Zhijie was concealed, and Caozhou did not receive any news.

They went out day and night, and did not attack Juye County at all, but went around the city and came to the west gate of Caozhou.
