Gongsun Chan eventually launched a frantic attack on Nanpi City.

The reason why he did this was probably because he had already received the news that Yuan Shao was sick on the bed, so he felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and refused to let it go. Therefore, in the past few days, he did not hesitate to spend a large number of soldiers to launch round after round of attacks on Nanpi City. Of course, although Gongsun Zhan's men and horses are several times or even more than ten times that of Yuan Shao's side in Nanpi City, after all, on the battlefield, the besieging side always has to suffer a loss, and the blood cost is large, so if Gongsun Chan wants to finally break through Nanpi City, he will inevitably have to pay a heavy price.

However, in Gongsun Zhan's opinion, this price is actually nothing, with him, according to the current good momentum, it is only a matter of time before he wants to break through Nanpi City. And time is indeed the biggest problem, even Chen Nuo has to admit it. Ever since Gongsun Zhan was preparing to attack Nanpi City, Yuan Shao completely handed over the defense of Nanpi City to him, and ordered other generals to obey his arrangement and cooperate with him to defend Nanpi City. Since Chen Nuo took over Nanpi City, he has been constantly organizing people to defend against the attacks of Gongsun Zhan's side. Of course, his defense was effective, and several waves of attacks on Gongsun Zhan's side were defeated by him. It's just that Chen Nuo can also understand that although his side has resisted the thieves for a while, if he wants to defend Nanpi City, what he can do at the moment is actually far from enough. And the survival of Nanpi City seems to be only in time, once Gongsun Zhan's side persistently attacks Nanpi City, I believe that when the time is ripe, it will only be a matter of time before he Nanpi City is taken down.

Since Yuan Shao handed over Nanpi City to him Chen Nuo, if he still can't change the unfavorable situation of Nanpi City, he Chen Nuo doesn't say that he will be ridiculed by others because of this, but he is afraid that he himself will not forgive himself. It's just that, judging from the current disadvantages of Nanpi City, how easy is it to keep it? The thieves are not as good as the yellow turban thieves they met before, nor are they a group of rabble, they are not only several times outnumbered by him, but because of the successive victories, the momentum is very strong, if you want to repel them, how can you easily solve them in one sentence or two?

Originally, there was still a wide moat outside the city of Nanpi City, which could play a role in blocking the thieves and easing the attack of the thieves, however, because of the arrival of winter, the river surface was completely frozen, which was cheaper for the thieves. The thieves were not even spared the filling of the earth, rushed directly from the river, stepped on the solid ice, and then erected a ladder, set up siege equipment, and launched a direct attack on Nanpi City. In this way, the pitiful advantage of Nanpi City was also lost, so that they had to face the rounds of attacks of the thief army.

Today's battle is also extremely tragic, the siege of the city is dead, the defense of the city is dead, no one will let anyone, no one will easily retreat. Although Gongsun Zhan's side wanted to pull out Nanpi City in one go, they were the besieging side in the end, and they had to pay much more than the defenders, so it was not easy to do this. Finally, after losing a lot of men and horses in a tragic attack, and still failing to make any breakthrough, they had to sound the golden sound of withdrawal and slowly retreated. In this battle, the side of Nanpicheng gritted its teeth and stood firm, and temporarily won the victory of the guards. But this victory was accomplished on the basis of paying a heavy price. However, this 'tragedy' also applies to Gongsun Zhan's side.

Below the city, although the men and horses on Gongsun Zhan's side slowly retreated, the corpses discarded under the city were like small mountains, whether they were friends or enemies, they were all piled up together, blood and water flowed in harmony, not to mention how sad it was. Although both sides left behind the corpses on the ground, even if they closed their eyes, they could know that there were far more corpses abandoned by Gongsun Zhan's side than on Chen Nuo's side. However, Gongsun Zhan's desperate style of play is nothing more than relying on his own large number of people, and he does not necessarily take this small sacrifice in his eyes. However, it is not the same for the Nanpi City side. The defenders of Nanpi City are already few, and if they continue to fight like a funeral, sooner or later they will 'make ends meet', and I am afraid that it will be over.

And even if he was in the face of Gongsun Zhan's incessant blows, he could still support Nanpicheng to the end, but the losses on his side would definitely be very heavy, and it was not something he could easily afford. This kind of victory, even if it is barely possible, is only a miserable victory, which Chen Nuo is of course extremely unwilling to see. Therefore, how to minimize the casualties on his side while ensuring the protection of Nanpi is the top priority that Chen Nuo should consider at present.

But how can this be done? Chen Nuo frowned slightly, and raised his eyes to look into the distance. In the distance, under the city, there are endless tents of Gongsun Zhan's department, as if they can't be closed at a glance. There were enemies in front of him, which made Chen Nuo even more worried. Chen Nuo's brows pulled back again, staring at the city wall in front of him. The battlements of the city wall were covered with scratches and mottled on the solid rammed earth, and more were stained with blood and turned into dark brown bricks. Chen Nuo gently stroked it with one hand, and the tips of his index finger trembled slightly, as if when he passed by them, in addition to feeling a heavy bloody aura, it was more of the historical aura it carried.

There was a wind blowing slowly, cold and swishing, blowing on Chen Nuo's body, and Chen Nuo couldn't help but shudder. Looking at the battlements in front of him, stroking the city bricks under his fingertips, and then looking at the enemies under the city, Chen Nuo's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had thought of something. But the light in his eyes was only a flash for a moment, and he was about to grasp it, but he was inadvertently interrupted. From behind him, a pawn ran and reported to Chen Nuo: "Chen Hou! Oh no, General Zhu Ling's men and horses suddenly reversed! ”

"What?" Although Chen Nuo was thinking about other things in his mind, he was also taken aback when he suddenly heard the news. He didn't have time to think about it, he immediately turned around, glared at the man, and asked, "What's the matter?" He didn't dare to delay here, and immediately set off to rush to the camp where Zhu Lingjun was stationed. Behind him, the pawn who delivered the news followed closely, and said to Chen Nuo: "Chen Hou didn't know that General Zhu and his men were dissatisfied with the bullying of Lu Wenhou's subordinates, and complained to General Zhu to no avail, so the crowd was excited, so they rebelled, saying that they wanted to kill Lu Wenhou and ask for justice from Lu Wenhou......."

Chen Nuo raised his eyebrows and said, "What a mess, explain things clearly!" The messenger didn't say a word, but he confused Chen Nuo, and he had to briefly tell Chen Nuo about the whole incident on the road. It turned out that when Zhu Ling's subordinates passed by Lu Bujun's military tent, they didn't want to be splashed with cold water by the other party on the way they had to pass. Originally, this was not a big deal, but because of the cold weather, the water on the ground quickly froze, so it was troublesome. And what's worse is that these people who passed through the big tent of Lu Bujun are all Zhu Ling's communication soldiers, and they are all horses, and they are afraid of bumping and bumping halfway when they want to come to the horse's speed, not to mention running on the ice, where can they walk steadily, and they were immediately slid by the cold water ice, and the horses fell needless to say, and the bad thing is that several people on the horseback were injured because of this.

Because of this, their subordinates were extremely angry at the actions of Lu Bu's subordinates, so they specially instigated their general Zhu Ling to ask Zhu Ling to find Lu Bu to theorize. However, Zhu Ling has never been a troublemaker, and in line with the principle of calming things down, he persuaded his subordinates not to care, let alone alarm Chen Nuo because of this trivial matter. I didn't want Zhu Ling's attitude to arouse everyone's anger, and I didn't listen to his advice, and I wanted to go to Lu Bu to settle accounts. Speaking of which, although Zhu Ling is accustomed to sand warfare, and he is also a guy who is not afraid of death when fighting, he is a weak and incompetent person when dealing with disputes between his subordinates, and he was bullied by his subordinates to this point, but he was powerless, so that he got into the current situation.

When Chen Nuo heard this, his nose snorted heavily, and he didn't express his opinion. At this moment, the people who were making trouble from Zhu Ling's camp had already come out, and they met Chen Nuo on this road. Chen Nuo immediately stepped forward directly with all the guards, asked the guards to stop the troublemakers, and then asked where Zhu Ling was. At this time, Zhu Ling ran forward from behind, also with a helpless face. He hadn't suppressed everyone for so long just now, but when he saw Chen Nuo coming, it was like seeing his relatives, and he immediately complained to Chen Nuo. Chen Nuo was also very unhappy when he saw his incompetent appearance, so he naturally didn't give him a good look.

Chen Nuo left Zhu Ling alone, and just asked these troublemaking soldiers about the incident again, these soldiers were afraid of Chen Nuo's coercion, so they naturally didn't dare to mess around, so they told Chen Nuo what happened, and said it very finely, of course, it was more about adding oil and vinegar, nothing more than counting Lu Bujun's trouble. When Chen Nuo heard this, he nodded, and sneered: "Lu Fengxian's military discipline is lax, this is famous, even Yuan Gong is helpless against him, you want me to give you anger, how to do it?" Do you want him to come and apologize to you, or do you just arrest his subordinates and punish him? I don't think you can tell you why, right? So, it's better for us to let them go, the adults don't remember the villain, spare him once, it also seems that we are broad-minded, right? ”

When Chen Nuo said this, even if everyone was still unwilling, they didn't dare to refute it, so they obediently returned to the camp with Chen Nuo's arrangement. Chen Nuo's side, because of this incident, was inspired, and he thought of a wonderful trick. Perhaps, whether you can retreat from the enemy depends on this move.
