"Ahziz", the smell of burnt fried meat is disgusting, and dozens of Dongwu hoplites under the city gate have fallen, they can resist spears and feather arrows, but they can't resist the pervasive boiling oil!

Like canned human flesh, they were burned red, and the smell came out, and the bad Cao army on the city gate kept pouring oil downward, making them feel pressured, and many people were hesitant to dodge, and the city car had not yet hit the city gate, which caused this kind of change, which made people depressed; Guo Jiayao pointed out that Zhou Yu's feather fan waved downward, representing several meanings, the city gate creaked and opened itself, the Cao army on the city stopped pouring oil, and the trebuchet on the high platform in the center of the city slammed, throwing and bombarding Wu Jun with all his might!

It was just a moment of change that the Wu army was stunned, and a cavalry roared out of the city, and before the two or three hundred heavy cavalry could react, they were knocked away, killed, and went straight to Zhou Yu's Chinese army!

The wind and clouds, the blood and rain are flying, everything has become so fragile under the iron cavalry of the Cao army, and the Cao army at the head of the city is also crazy, and the Wu army that has climbed the city has been killed and repelled for a while, and the Wu army that has fallen under the city screaming is definitely not a few; Cao Jun is on the rise! Zhou Yu's face was gloomy, the command flag in his hand was waving, and the black-armored soldiers of about 3,000 people were marching with a rumbling pace to prepare for battle, and the shield soldiers holding a large shield high one person high blocked the front, and behind them were the attacking troops armed with small shields and machetes; This is all of his heavily armored infantry, and the black armor in the sunlight exudes a faint cold light, allowing Guo Jia to see the same thing as the tiger and leopard riding! The feather fan in his hand shook lightly twice, the sound of Mingjin rattled, and the cavalry of the Cao army turned around at a gallop in front of Zhou Yu's formation, turned around, and killed the city again; The Eastern Wu soldiers who tried to stop it could not defeat the Cao army's iron cavalry at all, nor could they stop them from making a single move; Zhou Yu looked hesitant, according to his visual opinion, the Wu army now has at least more than 5,000 casualties, and the casualties are a little too great! But the drawbridge was captured, and this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

After hesitating for three times, Zhou Yu gritted his teeth, waved the flag, and the war drums roared again, and the battlefield that had been silent for a while became noisy again, but this time it was not as fierce as the last time, this is the truth of one drum, then exhausted, and three declines; Guo Jia beckoned, and Huang Zhong strode over: "What do you command, sir?" Guo Jia: "Seal the city gate!" The herald of the north of the city led a light cavalry attack and attacked Zhou Yu from the rear! Don't ask for killing, go straight to attack his base camp! Burn his food and grass! If you don't succeed, you have to scare him! ”

The north of the city with Zhang Jaw is the one left behind by the current siege of the three missing ones, with abundant troops and high morale, Guo Jia chose to mobilize him to harass Zhou Yu and confuse the public; Huang Zhong ordered people to start carrying huge stones to seal the city gate, and these huge stones were the cornerstones of Cao Jun's night digging of the four corners of the high platform outside the city, which was also something that the Wu Shu coalition army took the initiative to provide; "Knock knock!" , The muffled sound kept ringing, and even a battering ram with the power of 10,000 catties could not break through the gate full of boulders! The gates had been slowly sealed, and they were one step too late!

Sealing the city gate is conducive to defense, but it also has a lot of drawbacks, once there is any trouble in the city, he can't go if he wants to, with Guo Jia's character, he can't actually use this way, but he has to use it, who called Zhou Yu too powerful to break through the drawbridge gate directly?

"If you can't attack it for a long time, there will be trouble!" After Zhou Yu muttered to himself, he took a few steps forward and looked at the city with his eyes covered: "That tuberculosis ghost is Guo Jia, right?" But Li Yu has only appeared now, what has he done? It's incomprehensible! ”

Maybe Zhou Yu's crow's beak came true, Guo Jia at the head of the city: "Old General Huang!" You ready? After Huang Zhong got the order, he asked the soldiers to light the bales and hang them on the head of the city, and some of them were thrown down the ladders; The sudden appearance of the rolling flames obviously frightened the soldiers on the ladder, and the nervous overreaction actually jumped off the ladder and the burning hay generated a large amount of smoke, Wu Jun was so smoked that he couldn't open his eyes, and Cao Jun in the city had already covered his mouth and nose with a wet cloth, pulled his bow and twisted arrows and called them one by one; The Wu army was once again repulsed, and the morale was sluggish, and Zhou Yu found that even if he could grasp the weaknesses of the other party, he could never use these weaknesses to kill the enemy, but the enemy was terrifyingly strong, and he could turn the tide and respond to all changes without change; "Roar, roar, roar", the noisy sound, the neighing of horses sounded in the rear of the Wu army, and the light cavalry of the Cao army who came to the whistle held a half-burned flag of the Wu army and made an insulting gesture unscrupulously; Zhou Yu was shocked in his heart, could it be that the base camp was attacked? Grain and grass" come and go and investigate! Zhou Yu's heart was disturbed, so he was not very effective when commanding, and the Wu army couldn't attack for a long time and stopped advancing; In fact, Zhang Jaw just disgusted him, when they went to raid the Wu army's base camp, they didn't succeed, Huang Gai still defended him well, and when the herald came to report that the base camp was fine, Zhou Yu felt that he had been fooled again; Guo Jia was actually aimed at hitting his morale from the beginning and nothing else, every step he took was like this, just like opening his jaw this time, although he didn't succeed, but that half of the flag is easy to reverie, affecting your normal thinking, as the main general in the army, they are worried about the rear, so can these soldiers be stable? They're going to wonder if they won't have anything to eat tonight, right?

Based on this idea, the more the Wu army fought, the more cowardly it became, and the longer it dragged on, so did it, and now if it weren't for Zhou Yu's huge fame to suppress these soldiers by himself, maybe there would be a rout and escape; Guo Jia! I kind of know you! Zhou Yu had a sense of loss in his heart, what does it mean that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world? That's right, did he think that if he defeated Li Yu once, he would be invincible in the world? No, in this era of good talents, who dares to claim to be invincible in the world?

On the other side, the most fierce attack was in the direction of the south city gate where Liu Bei himself supervised the battle, the high-ranking officials were generous, and all the money he could reward for the beautiful women was given, and he did whatever it took to capture the city; Cao Jun is as solid as a chime stone, standing still! Liu Bei was furious and roared: "Zhao Yun! Take my guards and form a warlord! Who dares to retreat! No mercy! Zhao Yun's face flashed a trace of unbearability, but he firmly obeyed Liu Bei's order, and lined up with his personal guards of 3,000 people to form a supervision team; The war was so tragic that even Guan Yu personally braved stray arrows and rolling stones to rush upward, and Tai Shici, Fu Shiren, Mi Fang and others fought bravely! The Shu army was red-eyed and desperately approaching the city, and the number of casualties reached a large number; Cao Jun was not easy as the defensive side, although they were waiting for their work, they also paid a heavy price; Li Yu was not as calm and relaxed as he was at the beginning, and even cut down a Shu army with his own hands to boost morale; "Wenpin! How's the boiling water going? Li Yu roared, the temperature of boiling oil is very high, and it can burn a person to death in an instant, but fire oil is a scarce material after all, and it is impossible to store so much, and water is something that can be seen everywhere, although it can't kill the enemy, but it can also make them burn and lose their combat effectiveness, which is cruel! But I can't do that much right now!

"That's it! Walk you! Wen Ping looked at the boiling water, picked up the copper basin and scooped half a basin and splashed it nearby, the Shu army who had just climbed up was screamed and fell down, and the other Cao Jun also did the same, and some of the guys around him who were ready to be used as basin envoys all copied it; The whole siege seems to have turned into a Songkran Festival, but the Songkran Festival splashing water is a blessing to others Shu Jun: rub! Who the splashed me with boiling water? Cao Jun smiled evilly

Seeing that the Shu army was beaten back again and again, Liu Bei seemed calm and no longer so crazy, turned around and asked Zhuge Liang, his voice was a little hoarse: "How is Xu Shu doing over there?" ”

Zhuge Liang shook his head, and the signal did not break the situation, Li Tong, the defender in the west of the city, is also a veteran, his favorite general who guards the city, and a defender of the city can play with you in the style of some artistic youth, Xu Shu Alexander!

"Let Xu Shu Mingjin withdraw his troops, rest for the time being, don't stop on our side, keep attacking! Let Xu Shu go on at night! Liu Bei made up his mind, since it was a fierce battle, it would be a fierce battle day and night!

The other direction also put away a part of the troops, ready to fight day and night, the defense in the city was temporarily stable, Li Yu found Guo Jia and discussed countermeasures: "The Wushu coalition army has made it clear that it wants to fight with us day and night, and we are particularly at a loss in terms of troops!" The soldiers can't hold out for long! ”

"Then which direction do you think the Wushu coalition should use as a breakthrough? South and East, of course! They have to have their backs to the base camp, and if he congratulates the western wall at night when there is no southern containment, I can directly raid and destroy him, do you mean? ”

Guo Jia nodded: "Judging from their actions, they have given up the North Gate, where the terrain is relatively narrow and the water flow is too close, as a breakthrough, then the idle soldiers and horses at the North Gate are our new force, we can rotate it!" At night, they didn't dare to attack too far from their base camp! The risk is too high, and they also know the mobility of our army! ”

"Alright! How do I rotate? Would it be good to swap the north gate with you, and my south gate with Li Tong? Li Yu said with a smile, Guo Jia: "Naturally! ”

"Mr. Wenhe! It's been almost thirty days! It's been thirty days! How long can a lonely city hold on? I'm so worried! Cao Pi seemed a little restless, walking back and forth, there was only one Jia Xu in his study; Jia Xu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, according to the following, the plan has been successful!" It's just the final blow! You just have to be patient! When Huaide's news came, the army attacked in seven directions! ”

"Huhuhuhu", Cao Pi gasped a few times, coughed a few times, his throat was a little itchy, and wiped the corners of his mouth without leaving a trace, Cao Pi: "Seven ways to attack?" Which seven ways? What's the focus? What is the biggest expectation? ”

Cao Pi, the emperor, is very pragmatic, very utilitarian, and very relaxed, he only needs to tell the goal he wants to achieve and find the right person to implement it; "The 100,000 men and horses of Shouchun Xu Rong, Zang Ba, and Cao Hong are the first way, and they have now recovered the entire territory of Jiujiang and Lujiang counties! As long as Huaide won a big victory, they took advantage of the shaking of Wu to cross the Yangtze River and directly enter Lingyang, the capital of Wu, without asking them to break through Lingyang and kill Sun Quan, he just needs to stand still!

Second way! For Cao Ren, Cao Zhen, and Duan Xuan, let them lead 30,000 troops to the land of Yongliang, this place of raising horses will be taken and there is no obstacle now, plus Duan Xuan has a certain reputation in Xiliang in his early years, I think His Majesty can increase the land of two states again!

The third way! Gao Shun, Wu Anguo, Dian Man, and Cao Xing, let them lead 100,000 troops to attack Hanzhong, not trying to take it in one fell swoop, but only need to lay nails in secret! After this war, our focus will be on destroying the relatively weak Eastern Wu, and then dealing with Shuchuan, but from now on we need to plan; Fourth way! Xiahoudun, Xu Yi, Zhang Yan! Let them lead 30,000 troops to attack Jiangxia County and put pressure on Sun Quan from the side! They need to leave early on the way; Fifth Road! It is composed of Wei Yan, Lu Qian, and Lu Kuang, and Wei Yan has come with 50,000 cavalry! These people have strong mobility ability, so they can go straight to Wuling and Guiyang to sweep the Shu army, and then turn around and go straight to Yangzhou Yuzhang and Huiji to intercept Cheng Pu, who is stationed in Huiji, to come to help!

Sixth Road! Xu Huang and Lu Bin, their actions should also be earlier, like Wei Yan, let them sweep the Wu army in Changsha and Lingling first, and then join with Wei Yan to intercept Cheng Pu's reinforcements! 30,000 cavalry is sufficient; The Seventh Way! Xiahou Yuan and Zhang Liao, with 30,000 troops, entered the Eastern Danyang County and Wu County from Yuzhang County to kill Eastern Wu! Cause panic and suppress the local scholars of Eastern Wu, or order Zhang Zhao to accompany them to surrender to the scholars of Eastern Wu, and the destruction of Wu can be twice the result with half the effort! ”

"Even so, it seems that there are still a lot of troops left! Isn't General Ji Ling also in the Fancheng area? Cao Pi raised his eyebrows and asked; Hehe! Someone has to defend in front of Xuchang! can't do without the army, Waiyi", Jia Xu didn't say it later, which means that Waiyi made a mistake in his decision-making, and there would be a way to remedy it, this old man likes to play this kind of half-talk; "Good! Just do what Master Situ says! Cao Pi spread out the silk silk and began to write the holy decree, he can completely let others write it on his behalf, there are eunuchs who hold the pen and so on, he doesn't, in order to avoid some things from happening, he also pays attention to details;" Oh! That's right! Before leaving, Jia Xu added: "Your Majesty, if Huaide dies, he wants me to tell you a word!" ”

"Huh?" , Cao Pi raised his head and looked a little angry; Jia Xu said disapprovingly and lightly: "Huaide said: If he leaves like this, I hope Your Majesty will not be sad, and he must be close to the virtuous ministers, far villains, diligent in government affairs, and love Li Min, Sima Yi is not good if no one suppresses him!" ”

Jia Xu left, but Cao Pi lowered his head, and a trace of crystal tears slipped from his nose to the ground and bloomed
