Chapter 660 conquers Ji County
Just when the general was thinking like this, Cao Jun had already climbed the city wall of Jixian County.
Cao Jun was really a tiger and wolf army, and after rushing to the city wall, the Cao army soldiers launched a crazy battle against the Yuan army on the city wall. Yuan Jun was Cao Jun's opponent, and after a moment of fighting, Yuan Jun couldn't support it.
Seeing this situation, the defender really didn't know what to do. I thought that I could hold out for a while with the number of people, but the strength of the Cao army was obviously directly proportional to the weakness of the Yuan army. Compared with Cao's army, Yuan's army was its opponent, and Yuan's army was defeated very quickly.
Yuan Xi was immediately very angry when he got the news, but when he heard that the city wall was now a little precarious, Yuan Xi finally realized that he could not continue to hide it privately. frowned slightly, and then Yuan Xi ordered someone to lead 10,000 elite Yuan troops to support Cao's army.
After the elite of the Yuan army joined, the offensive of the Cao army slowed down significantly. After all, the elite is the elite, even though the combat effectiveness of the Yuan army is not comparable to the Cao army, but in the slightly narrow place of the city wall, the combat effectiveness of the Cao army is obviously difficult to play.
Moreover, as far as the eye can see, most of the entire Jixian city wall is occupied by Yuan soldiers. At this moment, it is dazzling, and it is impossible to distinguish that soldier is the elite of the Yuan army, and that soldier is the cannon fodder of the Yuan army.
At this moment, Yuan Xi's strategy has finally worked, and the vast number of Yuan soldiers have finally stabilized the situation. Not only that, but Yuan Jun gradually began to gain the upper hand. After all, Cao Jun had been fighting on the city wall for a long time, and his physical strength was naturally somewhat depleted.
And the soldiers of the Yuan army on the wall of the Yuan army are endless, and if they kill one, they can make up for at least two. In such a situation, how can the soldiers of the Cao army continue to kill. In the end, Cao Jun chose Mingjin to withdraw his troops, after all, now that the Yuan army has gained the upper hand, and if it continues to fight, Cao Jun will only suffer heavy losses.
After weighing the pros and cons, Zhao Fei ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops. Zhao Fei didn't want Yuan Jun to suffer heavy losses, after all, Cao Jun still had a secret weapon. Now the master named Zhao Xuan has not contacted Cao Jun, but it is not too late to think about it.
Zhao Fei was not wrong at all, in the dead of night, a hanging basket was quietly hung from the city wall. There was a lean man on top of the hanging basket, and after the hanging basket landed, the man looked around vigilantly, and then quietly disappeared into the night.
Soon after, this lean man appeared in front of Cao Jun's camp. Explaining his intention, this person was brought to Cao Cao and Zhao Fei.
Zhao Fei looked the person up and down, only to feel that the person in front of him had shrewdness in his eyes. Zhao Fei nodded slightly, and then asked, "Did Zhao Xuan ask you to come?" Zhao Fei's tone added a little majesty, and this was something that Zhao Fei could add.
The person who came gave Zhao Fei and Cao Cao a deep salute, and then said loudly: "That's right, Master Zhao is my master!" The tone of the person who came was full of respect, but Zhao Fei didn't care very much.
"Why did your master let you come here?" Zhao Fei asked loudly, Zhao Fei was actually very concerned about taking Jixian County. He didn't show that he didn't care so much, and kept letting the soldiers of the Cao army stand still. Cao Jun consumes a lot of grain and grass every day, and Zhao Fei knows this better than anyone.
"My master asked me to ask the prime minister, has the prime minister received the news he sent someone?" The lean man asked flatteringly.
"Hmm!" Cao Cao nodded with a deep groan, but didn't say much. At this time, Zhao Fei spoke again: "Time is precious, let's pick the important ones." It's getting dark now, and I don't want to spend more time on this! ”
The lean man was obviously stunned, he obviously didn't expect Zhao Fei to say this. The man pondered for a moment, and then said: "Lord Hui, my master said that the master can open the gate of Jixian County for Cao Jun, but my master can't help much to capture Jixian County!" ”
Zhao Fei grinned, and then said in a deep voice: "As long as Master Zhao can open the door of Jixian County for our army, it will be a great achievement." ”
"My master also said that the elite of the Yuan army in Jixian County are under the control of Yuan Xi, even if my master can open the city gate for Cao Jun, but after attacking the city, it depends on Cao Jun himself!" The man said loudly.
Regarding this matter, Zhao Fei obviously didn't take it to heart. Yuan Xi's elite is just a joke in Zhao Fei's eyes, and when the strength is equal, the Yuan army can't even beat the soldiers under Zhang Yan's command, let alone the elite of the Cao army.
"In that case, reply to your master, let your master open the city gate tomorrow, and leave the rest to Cao Jun!" Zhao Fei said in a deep voice.
The lean man nodded, then resigned and left. Back at the hanging basket, the man was hoisted up the city wall. After saying hello to the generals guarding the city, the man walked towards Zhao Xuan's mansion.
At this moment, in Zhao Xuan's secret room, Zhao Xuan and several generals were waiting for the news brought by the man. At this moment, the entire secret room was unusually quiet, no one spoke, they just waited quietly, waiting for news from Zhao Xuan's henchmen.
Finally, there was a knock on the door, and a lean man appeared in front of everyone.
Zhao Xuan was obviously the most anxious person, he took a step forward, and then asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation?" ”
"Taiwei Zhao asked me to tell you, open the city gate at noon tomorrow, and the rest will be handed over to Cao Jun!" The man hurriedly told Zhao Xuan about the matter.
After listening to his confidant, the people in the secret room immediately began to discuss. At this time, only one general said in a deep voice: "It doesn't hurt to open the city gate, but whether the Cao army can occupy the county seat of Jixian County." If not, we will suffer! ”
There are a lot of Yuan soldiers in the city, if the Cao army can't take Jixian, it will definitely be the generals who open the city gate who will suffer. Although they knew that Cao's army was strong in combat, they would not be beaten down by Yuan's army today. This made Yuan's generals somewhat disappointed.
"If you want to do great things, you need to take risks. If you are really afraid of death, then what is the purpose of your gathering here! Zhao Xuan said in a deep voice. Now it's ready to fly, but I can't imagine that there are people who are afraid at this time.
Zhao Xuan was very helpless, why didn't they think about it, if the Cao army could conquer the city wall of Jixian County in one battle today, then what was the use of themselves to the Cao army. Only in this case can you have the value of existence. Otherwise, Cao Jun really won Jixian County, so he would have nothing to do with it.
"The combat effectiveness of the Cao army is obvious to all, although the Yuan army defeated the offensive of the Cao army today, but the losses of the Yuan army are huge. If the elite of the Yuan army can really compete with the Cao army, will Yuan Xi be able to recruit troops everywhere to resist the Cao army! Zhao Xuan said in a deep voice.
Hearing Zhao Xuan say this, everyone sighed for a while, and then someone took the lead and said: "I will listen to you, my lord, what will I do, what will I do!" ”
"I know that your biggest concern is the safety of your family. In that case, we need to plan well, not only to rescue your family, but also to help Cao Jun take Jixian! Zhao Xuan said in a deep voice.
"After you go back, you and others will arrange for each of you to have five hundred soldiers hidden around your house. As long as Cao's army enters the city, you will command the soldiers to take the mansion. After seizing the mansion, you will not go out, and after the war in the entire Jixian County subsides, you are trying to find a way to contact me! Zhao Xuan instructed everyone.
Everyone nodded, they were naturally worried about their families, so Zhao Xuan's arrangement made everyone very satisfied. As long as you protect your family, that's it. Moreover, Zhao Xuan is definitely worth believing, arranged by him, he should be fine.
Zhao Xuan let everyone disperse, and then he fell into deep thought. Zhao Xuan knew that tomorrow's war was related to the safety of his life, and whether he could survive or not depended on his life. If you have a big life, then everything is easy to say, but if one is not careful, then there is nothing.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, the time of the day passes. Early in the morning, Cao's army attacked again. Cao Jun rushed towards Jixian County, but Yuan Jun's reaction today was obviously faster than yesterday.
But Zhao Fei didn't care about these at the moment, he was waiting quietly, waiting for the arrival of noon. In order to be able to successfully take the city of Jixian County, Zhao Fei naturally arranged for the soldiers of the wolf pack to be on standby. After all, their elite level is trustworthy, and with them, as long as the city gate is opened, there is no possibility of closing.
Noon gradually came, and the gate of Jixian County, which had been closed for a long time because of the ban, slowly opened. Seeing the city gate wide open, Zhao Fei obviously didn't have any suspicions. He hurriedly ordered the wolf pack to attack, hoping to take Jixian County.
Cao's army rushed into Jixian County, and Yuan Xi obviously didn't know about it. It wasn't until Cao's army completely occupied the gates of Jixian that Yuan Xi realized that the situation was wrong.
Now that the city gate is broken, the city wall on which Yuan's army depends has lost its effect. Without the protection of the city wall, the low combat effectiveness of the Yuan army was instantly exposed. With the city wall, they may still have some self-confidence, but without the city wall, they suddenly lost their support.
When Yuan Xi got the news, the entire Jixian County had reached the point where it was uncontrollable. Cao's army had already entered the city, and was swarming towards him.
Knowing that the city wall of Jixian County had been lost, Yuan Xi immediately made the decision to break through. His arrangement in this matter can be regarded as saving him. The elite people in Youzhou are all under their control, and with the existence of these soldiers, then they have the possibility of breaking through.
Commanding these elites, Yuan Xi began to break through to the north of the city. And Cao Jun obviously didn't want to let go of Yuan Xi easily, so he launched a siege and interception of Yuan Xi.
After a battle, the sky was dark, and under the powerful combat power of Cao Jun, the soldiers around Yuan Xi were gradually decreasing. They were either killed by Cao's army or surrendered. Even if they are elite, they are still afraid of death.
Now Yuan Xi is obviously in a stalemate, even if the city gate is highlighted, but Cao Jun has formed a situation of encirclement against him. And at this moment, a cavalry suddenly came, and this person was none other than his general, Jiao Touch.
