Chapter Seventy-Nine: Attacking the City Again

Inside Yingchuan City. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he successfully held the city today, Yun Sheng understood that these soldiers and horses in the city alone would not be able to repel Yuan Shao's army alone.

Just now, Yunsheng and Xiahou Yuan estimated that Yuan Shao should have sent more than 20,000 soldiers and horses this time, and it seems that there must be 25,000 soldiers and horses.

According to Li Hao's statistics, 655 people were lost in today's battle to defend the city. Having lost so many brothers just after the war, Xiahou Yuan was very worried, but Yun Sheng was not very worried.

Because the more than 400 people who accounted for the largest number of them were suddenly attacked at the beginning of the war, which caused them to be caught off guard, and it was also because of this that so many people died.

Later, Yun Sheng arrived in time and led them to successfully withstand the offensive, and during this period, they only lost about 200 people, and maybe even more than 100 people before 200 people.

It can be seen that relying on Yingchuan City, it is still possible to keep it for three or five days.

After Li Hao's detailed inventory, Yun Sheng and Xiahou Yuan learned that there were still 4,200 people left in the Yingchuan army. This included 650 dead soldiers and 150 who were seriously wounded and could no longer defend the city.

"There are still four thousand two hundred people left...... Li Hao muttered as he looked at the inventory list in his hand.

Yun Sheng bowed slightly, "Hmm." It's still manageable, nothing is a big deal. ”

Xiahou Yuan, who was leaning against the wall, suddenly raised his head to Yun Sheng, "You say, will Yuan Shaojun continue to attack tomorrow?" ”

Yun Sheng returned without thinking about it, "Impossible! Unless Yuan Shao suddenly went crazy, it was impossible to continue the attack. ”

Li Hao, who was stunned when he looked at the list, came back to his senses and asked suspiciously, "Why is this?" ”

Yun Sheng pondered for a moment and then sat up straight, "It's impossible for Yuan Shao to come this time without a strategist. Since there is a belt, the strategists under Yuan Shao's account should have suggested that Yuan Shao carry out a sustained ordinary attack tomorrow through today's observation. ”

Yun Sheng had this guess because he understood the truth that Yuan Shao's advisors understood again and again, and then declined, and then exhausted.

Today's battle situation has clearly told Yuan Shao that the defense of Yingchuan City cannot be quickly broken through. If they weren't stupid, they wouldn't have continued the onslaught tomorrow.

As the saying goes, fighting is fought by courage. A desperate spirit is the magic weapon to defeat the enemy.

When Yuan Shaojun still couldn't attack the next day, it was when the morale of the defenders in Yingchuan City was high.

When that time comes, not to mention that Yuan Shaojun can counterattack, it will be no problem to hold on for five more days.

Xiahou Yuan obviously understood this truth, only to see him walk up to Yun Sheng and say: "The other party's strategists should not be so stupid, again and again, and then decline, and I understand the truth of exhaustion, let alone the people in Yuan Shao's army." ”

Li Hao made a sudden realization, and Yun Sheng was also relieved to look at Xiahou Yuan and nodded in approval.

Xiahou Yuan then said calmly: "Since this is the case, then how should we deal with it tomorrow." ”

As soon as Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, Li Hao said without hesitation, "Strictly guard!" Keep on the defensive, of course! ”

It seems that this big brother is not particularly stupid, but he still understands a little.

"That's right! Don't think about attacking Yuan Shaojun, it is a bit difficult to defend the city according to the remaining 4,200 soldiers and horses in the city, let alone counterattack Yuan Shaojun. Yun Sheng gave his eldest brother Li Hao an appreciative look, and then continued to encourage the two, "Strictly guard against it!" As long as we hold Yingchuan City, it will be a victory! ”

Of course, Li Hao understands that at the moment, only by continuing to guard strictly is the right way. But as the saying goes, if you keep it for a long time, you will lose it!

It has always been a defense, and it will eventually be taken away by Yuan Shaojun.

Li Hao said distressedly: "But it's not a way to keep defending like this." ”

Xiahou Yuan nodded in agreement.

Of course, Yun Sheng understands that there will be problems in defending all the time, and it will even lead to the capture of Yingchuan, but he understands that as long as he holds on for another day or two or three days at most, Yuan Shao can retreat without attacking, and if conditions permit, he may be able to fight a beautiful counterattack.

Looking at the two of them helplessly, Yun Sheng had no choice but to say the plan, "Really! Just keep it for another three or four days, no, two days! At that time, the soldiers and horses sent by Mengde to support will arrive. Even the supporting soldiers and horses may not have arrived, Yuan Shao and he retreated. ”

The support sent by Cao Cao to support Xiahou Yuan still knew, but the soldiers and horses supporting him withdrew before Yuan Shao arrived, which is a bit ridiculous.

With the puzzled eyes of the two, Yun Sheng continued: "What is there to doubt about this. Didn't you go to Hanoi to find foreign help? Not only did I invite that foreign help, but I also learned a piece of news unexpectedly. ”

Xiahou Yuan and Li Hao were even more puzzled.

"What's the news? Good news or bad news? Xiahou Yuan asked suspiciously.

"Good news. The news is that after the discussion between the Montenegrin army and the Yuan Shao rebels in Wei County, they plan to mutiny in Wei County the day after tomorrow, and when the rebellious Yuan Shao rebels and the soldiers and horses of the Montenegrin army meet, they will go directly to attack Yecheng. Yun Sheng broke the news.

Xiahou Yuan and Li Hao looked at each other, and their hearts were very shocked.

"That's great. If that's the case, you really have to guard against it. Li Hao looked down at the situation again.

Xiahou Yuan looked pensive, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Since that's the case, then I will choose to guard against it tomorrow." Yun Sheng decided.

In fact, if possible, Yun Sheng didn't want to keep it all the time, after all, no matter who it was, he wanted to be able to fight happily in front of the battle.

Looking up at the rooftop, Yun Sheng was worried about the speed of the Black Mountain Army.

I don't know if the Montenegrin Army can succeed in taking Yecheng, and what about Yang Feng's harassment.

Time was spent in worry and vigilance......

......

The next day, early in the morning.

Yuan Shao took 20,000 soldiers and horses to surround Yingchuan City again.

Yuan Shao, with the support of the generals, slowly rode a horse and appeared in front of the army.

At the head of the city, Yunsheng and Xiahou Yuan watched Yuan Shao slowly appear in front of the formation suspiciously, not knowing what Yuan Shao wanted to do.

As long as Yuan Shaolema stopped in front of his own army, he suddenly shouted loudly towards the city: "You should have felt that you couldn't resist yesterday!" Surrender! As long as you surrender, and whoever helps me Yuan Shao take down the head of Yingchuan Taishou Li Hao, a reward of 100 gold, and a military captain will be awarded! ”

For some reason, the soldiers in the city were able to hear what Yuan Shao said, which caused a commotion. Fortunately, Li Hao's usual style is not bad, and he treats the people very well, and the soldiers just made a commotion and regained their calm.

Yuan Shao rode back and forth a few times before the army, and waved his impatient hand, "Go!" ”

Yuan Shao's army suddenly seemed to be like a flood, and a large number of soldiers and horses rushed up and began to attack!
