Jiang Ya stayed in Xuchang at the moment and couldn't be mobilized, Guo Jia was seriously ill and was also recuperating in Xuchang, and Xun Yu raised grain and grass, and now Cheng Yu was left under Cao Cao's military division, but for the phantom array, Cheng Yu couldn't come up with a good way to crack it!

"Tomorrow I will try to attack other enemies, Liu Bei can't arrange phantom arrays on every city wall!" In desperation, Cheng Yu could only suggest this. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cao nodded, now there is no way to do this!

In the afternoon of the next day, Cao Cao's army set out!

The 300,000 army lost 50,000 last night, but the 250,000 army is still unstoppable in momentum!

With Cao Cao's order, the 10,000 soldiers of the death battalion began to close the city wall, their purpose was not to attack the city, but to find out where the phantom array existed.

The phantom array laid by Xu Shu can't be seen from the outside at all, only to try human lives one by one, although this method is cruel, but it is also the most practical!

A tentative attack, but also let Cao Cao and others find out the details, Xu Shu's phantom array, only in the four city gates are arranged, but the city wall is not, which also makes Cao Cao breathe a sigh of relief, if Liu Bei really worked hard, the entire Shouchun City outside the layout of the phantom array, this attack, it really takes a lot of effort, but even if it is to attack the city wall, it will be difficult.

"Whole army, siege!" Now that he has found out the details, Cao Cao did not hesitate and immediately ordered.

Randomly, 200,000 people under the leadership of Xiahou Yuan, Xu Chu, Yu Ban, and Le Jin began to storm Shouchun, of course, the city gate did not dare to set foot in, and could only forcibly attack the city wall.

Just attacking the city wall, which reduced the pressure on Liu Bei's defenders a lot, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei Tai Shi Ci took turns to go into battle, blocking Cao Cao's army that was attacking the city, and at the end of the day, Cao Cao's army had not even climbed up the city!

At night, Cao Cao's army tent.

"Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are worthy of being a rare fierce general in the world, my subordinates just rushed to the city, and before they landed, they led people to kill and throw them down the city!"

"And that Tai Shi Ci is also very good, not only is his marksmanship outstanding, his archery skills are also good, and his defense is not leaky, so it is difficult for us to attack!"

"yes, yes!"

......

And Cao Cao listened to the sighs of the generals below, slapped the case angrily, and said loudly: "One Liu Bei, will you retreat?" So when you meet Yang Xu and those generals under them in the future, are you going to turn around and run away? Yes? ”

In the face of Cao Cao's fierce questioning, the generals did not dare to speak, so they could only hang their heads and remain silent!

And Cao Cao, pacing for a long time, then asked Cheng Yu: "How long will Liu Ye arrive?" ”

Cheng Yu thought for a while and said, "Calculate the time, you should be able to arrive within three days!" ”

"Okay, then I'm attacking Shouchun three days later, and this king doesn't believe it, just one Shouchun, just one Liu Bei, can block the majesty of our army!"

"King Wei is wise!" At this time, the generals below shouted in unison.

Cao Cao waited for Liu Ye, not because Liu Ye had the ability to reach the sky and could break the phantom array, but because the siege equipment and catapults that Liu Ye escorted this time.

Catapults, giant long-range attack weapons, can cause huge damage to the city wall, although it cannot break the phantom array, but it is used to attack the city, especially the city wall, but it is a first-class weapon!

It has been three days since Cao Cao's last attack, but in the past three days, Cao Cao's army seems to have forgotten about the siege, which makes Liu Bei and others uneasy!

"Strategist, what are Cao Cao's plans?" Liu Bei couldn't help but ask Xu Shu!

"I'm afraid Cao Cao is waiting!" Xu Shu thought for a while and said.

"What are you waiting for?" Liu Bei was puzzled and asked again.

"Siege equipment, or the rainy season!" Xu Shu responded, "No matter what it is, it is extremely unfavorable for us!" ”

"But what I'm sure of is that Cao Cao should be waiting for siege equipment, after all, there is still a month in the rainy season, and he can't wait for that time, because in this month, a lot of variables will happen, not to mention, whether Sun Ce will come to help, and Yang Xu will not sit idly by and watch us being annexed by Cao Cao!"

"So, Cao Cao waited, it should be a siege machine, I heard a few years ago that Liu Ye, a skillful craftsman under Cao Cao, has developed a giant siege weapon, which can throw thousands of pounds of boulders into the city, causing huge damage, and his subordinates thought, Cao Cao should be waiting for it!"

Xu Shu told his conjecture eloquently, but it made Liu Bei's brows furrow even tighter.

At this moment, Shouchun's troops are not dominant, and he originally wanted to rely on the phantom array laid by Xu Shu to delay the time of Cao Cao's attack, but now it seems that it is unrealistic!

"Is there any way to deal with it?" Liu Bei asked again, now there is a person next to Xu Shu who gives advice, so when he encounters something, he has to go straight to Xu Shu to come up with some ideas!

But in the face of the unprecedented catapult, Xu Shu could only smile bitterly, before seeing the huge power of the catapult, he couldn't make any effective response.

"It's better to wait for Cao Cao's army to attack the city, and then his subordinates can figure out a way, it's too early to say!" Xu Shu said!

Liu Bei nodded, now he didn't even see the shadow of the catapult, but he talked about how to crack it, which was really worrying!

However, only one afternoon later, the war drums in Cao Cao's army roared, the sound of killing shook the sky, and Cao Cao began to attack the city!

In this siege, Cao Cao prepared to come, more than a dozen giant catapults, one by one, with the general's command, loaded with stone bullets, and then thrown into Shouchun City!

Huge stone bullets, like devils urging their lives, smashed many buildings in the city at the same time, and some fell on the city wall, making the city wall crumbling!

After a stick of incense, Cao Cao's army began to set out and launched an attack on the city wall!

The city walls were destroyed everywhere, and the remnants of the walls were broken, which made Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Tai Shi Ci and others who defended the city doubly difficult!

And Liu Bei also rushed to the city wall at this time!

"King Huai, it's not complete here, please King Huai quickly go down to the city!" Tai Shi Ci saw Liu Bei rushing towards the city, and hurriedly stopped him!

"What's not safe, as the king of Huai, I have to live and die with the soldiers!" Liu Bei shouted angrily, then with a sword in one hand, he rushed to the city wall, killed a Cao soldier, and then shouted: "The city is in the people, the city is dead!" I, Liu Bei, am willing to fight to the death with all the kings! ”

"The city is in the people, and the city is dead!" The morale of the defenders at the head of the city has soared, and the Cao army who will commit crimes has been blocked back again and again!

Despite this, without the strong protection of the city wall, the proportion of the defenders' losses has increased a lot compared to before, and at the end of the day, there are tens of thousands of casualties!

This made Liu Bei unable to sit still, there were only a total of soldiers and horses in Shouchun City, and he lost 10,000 on this day, how many days could he last?

"Strategist, is there a clever plan to break Cao Jun's catapult now?" Liu Bei seemed to grasp a life-saving straw and asked Xu Shu! (To be continued.) )
