Chapter 65: Closing the Siege

Chapter 65: Encirclement

At the fourth watch, the lights in the Cao army camp were bright. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Cao Cao stood at the top of the position, with a sword hanging from his waist "leaning on the sky". Below him were the generals of the army who were all in good armor.

"Xu Huang, Yu Ban, Le Jin, the three of you led 20,000 troops to attack the north gate. Xu Chu, Xiahoudun, Cao Ren, the three of you led the troops to attack the West Gate. Xiahoudun, Li Dian, Cao Hong, you attack the south gate. Cao Cao looked at the generals and said loudly: "The generals must use their lives to break through this city in one fell swoop!" ”

The generals were murderous and said yes.

Subsequently, Cao Cao gave Xia Houen another sword with the same name as "Yitian", "Qingyu", and said: "You hold this sword and urge the armies to move forward." There is no patrol, chop! ”

Xia Houen took the Qingyu Sword, and everyone was awe-inspired.

Afterwards, the generals rushed back to their camps and rushed out from all parts of the camp with tens of thousands of troops. The flaming torches were like stars in the sky, illuminating the area around the camp as if it were daylight.

Such a big movement naturally can't be hidden from others. The gongs on the earth city rang loudly, and several people shouted loudly: "The enemy army is coming!" ”

In Liu Bei's army, which is not far from Cao's military camp, everyone is also wearing armor and never leaving the army. Liu Bei wore a soft armor close to his body, put on another iron armor outside, pressed the "True * Yellow Dragon Sword" in his hand, and asked: "Cao Jun suddenly moved, why in the end?" ”

Zhang Fei and Guan Yu each brought divine soldiers and stood on both sides of Liu Bei. After listening to Liu Bei's question, Guan Yu said: "Brother, don't worry, even if Cao Cao sends troops to raid, Yide and I will be able to escort my brother to fight a bloody way!" ”

Although Zhang Fei has a lot of literary literacy, his temperament is quite irritable, and he shouted at the moment: "I have long said that Cao Ah is uneasy and kind. Why don't I and Yun Chang each lead an army, go into the Cao army camp, and cut off the head of Cao Apu! ”

Liu Bei's face was uncertain, but he still knew that it was not appropriate to move lightly at this time. He listened to the movement outside for a while, and commanded in the eyes of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei: "Order all the troops, guard the camp, and don't go out lightly." ”

Zhao Yun has been standing at the door of the big tent, holding his fists to receive orders, and then he went with Chen Zhi to order the army.

After a while, a Cao military captain came over with some soldiers and presented Cao Cao's handwritten letter to Liu Bei. Liu Bei took it and took a look, and saw that the silk book read, "Send troops today, don't break the thief and don't return" Yunyun.

Liu Bei smiled bitterly, picked up the pen and wrote a few words on the silk book, and then handed it to the lieutenant, and said, "Please reply to General Cao, and say that you know." We will send troops to attack the east gate. ”

When Captain I went out, Guan Yu asked, "Cao Cao sent troops to attack the city?" ”

"Exactly." Liu Bei said: "Although the soldiers are not tired of cheating, but this kind of situation makes people very .... Very ....."

Liu Bei is a kind-hearted person, at least he has always shown himself as a kind-hearted person. Even behind people's backs, they don't want to speak ill of people. He believes that when a husband stands in the world, he must be true to his word and never regret his death. Such a reversal of the word would greatly contradict his philosophy.

"How can Cao Apu be like this?" Zhang Fei shouted: "Could it be that seeing that the second brother is not in the limelight, he is afraid that Gu Lu will drop us, so he plans to just take the lead?" ”

"General Cao..... What a very human being. Liu Bei said: "Since we and Cao Cao are both His Majesty's courtiers, then, let's work together in this battle." ”

After a pause, Liu Bei said again: "I think those people in Tucheng can't stop the siege of Cao Cao's tens of thousands of troops, and we can at least let more people survive in the past." ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei agree with this. When they followed Huangfu Song to attack the Yellow Turbans, they saw Huangfu Song order nearly 100,000 Yellow Turban captives to be slaughtered together.

At that time, the three brothers were very unimpressed by this, and in private, Liu Beijiu sighed and said: "Can killing people like this make the world peaceful?" General Huangfu is a good general in the world, but why..... Why... To do something like this? ”

In Tucheng, the defenders have made a lot of preparations in the past half a month. However, their strength is only 4,000 now, and the slaughter city is small, and the city walls are not high, so they can't stop the steady stream of Cao soldiers.

Bright brilliance burst out, and Xu Huang, who had a scarlet on his head, held a mountain axe, and used his ultimate move as a peerless general, "Big Blow".

A big blow deals damage to enemies within a certain radius ——— the difference in force value multiplied by a certain factor. When the force value exceeds that of the opponent, it can cause the opponent's morale to be shaken.

The light wounded or killed a group of defenders at the head of the city like a physical sword, and then, Xu Huang took the mountain axe in his hand and slashed at a shield with a "dang" sound, and cut it into two pieces along with the shield. The steaming internal organs flowed down with the snow, turning the castle into a Shura hell in an instant.

Although before that, many soldiers were turned into charcoal-like things by the "big blow", but it was still not as bloody and cruel as Xu Huang's violent blow.

North, west, and south shouted together. Dozens of generals of the Cao army approached the city wall with fifty or sixty thousand soldiers, and then those brave and warlike generals swarmed up and suppressed the resistance of the city head with various skills.

Although the defenders also killed and wounded many Cao soldiers with the support of their stubborn fighting spirit, and even killed and wounded many more enemy troops at the beginning, their casualties increased rapidly after the stalemate period ended.

Even if Gu Lu is brave, he can only defend a city wall without losing it. In the other two directions, Cao's army quickly pinned down the defenders, then captured the head of the city and took control of the city gates. After the city gate was opened, the Cao soldiers who had endured many injuries rushed in, drowning the defenders, who were absolutely inferior in numbers, in the vast sea of people.

Outside the east gate, Liu Bei's three brothers stood quietly in the darkness with more than 3,000 soldiers. On the other side of them was the earthen city, which had been enveloped in flames and the sound of fighting.

"Big brother, what should I do? Shall we go up, or shall we wait for the enemy to flee from here before attacking? Zhang Fei said a little impatiently: "If you wait any longer, Cao Apu's army will attack it!" ”

Guan Yu also said: "The number is too different, and the Yellow Turban Army won't last long." ”

Liu Bei looked at the fire burning in the city, and then looked at the sky that was gradually becoming brighter, and finally made up his mind: "Order, attack!" ”

The horn sounded to indicate the attack, and Liu Beijun, who had been silent for a long time, quickly spread out his formation and leaned towards the east gate. (To be continued.) )
