Chapter 493, the situation took a sharp turn

Seeing that there was a raging iron pot next to it, there was a lot of lard in it, and the flames were soaring, Xu Chu rushed to the front in a few steps, the tip of the knife was gently lifted at the bottom of the pot, and the oil pot with the flame suddenly flew to a dome tent on the side.

The night wind is howling, the wind is helping the fire, the fire is raging, constantly rushing into the night sky, the flames are churning, the night sky is illuminated as bright as day, the fierce fighting, the rush of shouting and killing, soon alarmed the soldiers in the Cao camp, many soldiers did not wait to put on the armor and rushed out of the big tent with their pants, came to the outside of the tent, looked at the monstrous fire around them, all stupid in place, Dong Yi and others did not love to fight, the wind and clouds were like the clouds, in the Cao camp village, arson everywhere, wantonly slashed and killed Cao soldiers and Cao generals, Hao Zhao rushed out of the camp with a gun, He quickly glanced around, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers beside him, "Don't panic, quickly sound the trumpet, and the whole battalion is on alert." ”

"Don't you think it's too late?" A faint disdain drifted in the wind in the distance, Hao Zhao just turned around, swish, a cold star flew in, Hao Zhao screamed, and hurriedly dodged sideways, but it was the old general Huang Zhong who shot the arrow, the cold arrow came quickly, as fast as lightning, poof, an arrow pierced Hao Zhao's left arm, seeing Huang Zhong riding a horse to kill, Hao Zhao hurriedly fled to a crowded place, in the face of Huang Zhong such a super-first-class general, no matter how fearful he was in danger, and then he fought to the death, it was useless.

The fire was raging, the sound of killing shook the sky, Cao Cao, accompanied by Xiahoudun and others, rushed out of the handsome tent, looking at the tragic situation in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh. After stabilizing your mind. Cao Cao hurriedly ordered his soldiers to put out the fire. However, in the bitter cold of deep winter, even if water sources can be found in the vicinity, most of the rivers have already frozen into ice, unless the big river like the Xiangjiang River has not frozen, but after all, the distance is too far.

There was not enough water to extinguish the fire. Even if there is a water source, once the fire burns, it will not be able to stop it in a short time.

Tens of thousands of Cao soldiers were in a mess, barely organized, and they couldn't stop Dong Yi and the others, after all, Dong Yi's side was all first-class fierce generals, Wang Yue's swordsmanship was outstanding, and Xu Chu's brute strength was amazing. Huang Zhong walked through Yang in 100 steps, and his knife skills were skillful. Wei Yan's blood is strong, brave and difficult, everyone swept the leaves in the wind, rushed left and right in the Cao army camp, galloped wantonly, set off bursts of bloody wind and rain, the fire ignited by the entire Cao camp was also blooming everywhere, and even the grain and grass that was heavily guarded by the Cao soldiers were also lit by Huang Zhong and Wei Yan.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth angrily, beat his chest, and urged the soldiers to surround Dong Yi while fighting the fire, the entire Cao camp was in a mess, noisy like a vegetable market, and even the panicked Cao soldiers didn't know whether to rob and kill Dong Yi or put out the fire first.

Killed until dawn, Dong Yi and others left, the entire Cao camp was completely plunged into a sea of fire, Sun Ce, who was not far from here, got the news, and just wanted to lead the troops to support, but was stopped by Xi Zhicai, until the sky was bright, Sun Ce was late, and Ji Ling suddenly received an urgent report from Nanyang asking for help, and did not dare to hesitate, and led the troops back to Nanyang that night.

Cao Cao's soldiers suffered more than 10,000 casualties, and almost all the more terrible grain and grass were burned, and the angry Cao boss almost vomited blood, and under the anger and fire, Cao Cao once again led the troops to level Xiangyang City, but when he led the troops to kill outside Xiangyang City, looking at the white city wall in front of him, Cao Cao was stunned for a moment.

After a night of preparation, the entire Xiangyang City, wrapped in silver, frozen for thousands of miles, the four city walls of the east, west, north and south are all covered with a thick layer of ice, even close to the ground of the city wall, the same, Cao Cao was shocked, very unwilling in his heart, ordered people to beat drums to attack the city, however, the difficulty of the siege has increased sharply, many soldiers did not wait to rush to the city on the feet of unstable slip to the ground, even if the ladder is on the city wall, the guards gently pushed, the ladder suddenly slanted to the side, and then with a burst of screams, He fell straight down.

"The hateful Dong Yi, it's really unreasonable." The siege fell into a stalemate, and Cao Bing was worried and did not dare to press the whole army, which was really good for Dong Yi and others.

Every night, Huang Chengyan will take people to the city to sprinkle water, the ice is getting thicker and thicker, and the difficulty of attacking the city is getting bigger and bigger.

As a result, within a few days, the bad news came one after another, and for a while, the entire Cao Ying tent was as silent as death.

LΓΌ Bu and Yuan Shao suddenly sent troops, not only captured more than a dozen cities in Yanzhou in a row, but even Yuzhou, which Yuan Shu promised to give to Cao Cao, was forcibly taken away by Yuan Shao and Lu Bu, and the men and horses of Guan Hai Taoqian were not ambiguous, the entire Yanzhou was simply embattled, the situation was extremely dangerous, every time, every moment, there would be cities occupied by the enemy.

"Lord, lord..." Seeing that Cao Cao was silent for a long time, Cheng Yu and the others hurriedly stepped forward to ask, for fear that Cao Cao would be angry.

"Lu Bu, Yuan Shao, Liu Bei, the three alliances, I should have expected it a long time ago, hey, it's all to blame Meng De for being careless, I can't imagine that Tao Qian, who has always been weak and incompetent, dares to send troops, and the even more puzzling Guan Hai actually sent troops with Tao Qian?"

Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Lord, I'm afraid this is Dong Yi's conspiracy again, you must know that Tao Qian has responded to Dong Yi in the past, and he has sent five thousand reinforcements to fight against Dong, this time, I am afraid that he has been bewitched by Dong Yi again." ”

"I can only say that there are capable people under Dong Yi's account, and it is difficult for ordinary people to convince Tao Qian, this point, Meng De couldn't be clearer, it seems that the sky will not destroy Dong Yi."

All the grain and grass were burned, the siege war fell into a stalemate again, and there was such a big mess in Yanzhou, if you don't return to the army, I'm afraid Yanzhou will be carved up.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth with hatred, and he was really unwilling in his heart, after all, he was seeing that Xiangyang City was about to end.

"Report, Lord Qi, the big thing is not good, General Ji Ling returned to Nanyang, and was suddenly robbed and killed by Wuling Shamoke on the way, seriously injured, almost killed, did not wait to return to Nanyang, and encountered the siege of Xiandeng Juyi, so far he has not been out of danger, I am afraid that his life is in danger."

"What? What's going on here? How could Ju Yi and Shamoko suddenly send troops? How many soldiers and horses did they bring with them? Cao Cao's head buzzed, the bad news came, and he almost fell to the ground in shock.

"Shamoke commanded 50,000 troops, Ju Yi followed Gan Ning, Gan Ning personally commanded 50,000 male soldiers, and now, he is besieging Nanyang."

As soon as the messenger finished speaking, the scout sent by Ji Ling came, "My general is trapped in Shenwuling, and I have come to ask the two generals for help, hoping that the two generals will send troops quickly." (To be continued.) )
