Chapter 203: Calling the Formation
The news soon spread throughout Shouchun City, and when Chen Ji, who was guarding the city gate, learned the news, an inexplicable coldness flashed in his eyes. At this time, he felt that his choice was unusually correct, and Yuan Shu was really not a master.
But now is not the time to rebel, and only in the most critical moments can you prove your importance. At this time, they surrendered, not to mention whether Cao Jun would believe it, even if they believed it, the value they embodied would be different.
Although Cao's army had many siege equipment, it still took a lot of effort to conquer Shouchun City, which was heavily guarded. After all, there are so many taxis piled up in Shouchun City, even if they are killed one by one, it will take a long time.
Not to mention what others think, anyway, Du Chen at this time was very happy. The battle was surprisingly smooth, and the 10,000 Yuan troops were not missed, and they either died or surrendered. On the other hand, except for a few casualties in the Suzaku battalion, the other two troops were unharmed.
With such a small casualty in exchange for such a huge victory, how could Du Chen not be happy. However, Du Chen was very happy, and Cao Chun was also smiling from ear to ear. The only one with an abnormal expression was Gao Shun, the commander of the Xuanwu Battalion.
Since entering the camp, Gao Shun's face has not been better. This battle was really aggrieved, and he was still talking to his soldiers just now. But as soon as the words fell, before he could do anything, Yuan Jun surrendered one after another.
Thinking of how happy the White Tiger Battalion led by Zihe was to rush to kill the enemy formation, and then thinking of what happened to him, Gao Shun's heart was very different.
Gao Shun's table xiàn, Du Chen had already seen it in his heart. Of course, not only Du Chen, but everyone in the tent saw Cao Chun with a depressed face. However, at this time, because Yuan Jun was here, everyone couldn't say anything. And when Du Chen ordered Yang Feng to go down to recuperate from his injuries. Cao Chun was the first to laugh shamelessly.
Seeing the shameless Cao Chun, Gao Shun's mood was not to mention how depressed he was.
"Zihe, it's okay!" Du Chen shouted at Cao Chun angrily, then turned his head to Gao Shun and said: "Gongxiao doesn't need to be like this, the battle has just started, are you so worried that there is no battle?" ”
Du Chen's words. made Gao Shun comfort a lot. That's right, the battle has just begun, and there are still unimportant things to follow.
Seeing that Gao Shun's expression was a little better, Du Chen spoke again: "This time, we are well prepared, and Yuan Shu has also seen that our army is strong. This will definitely make Yuan Shu timid. Take me to bombard him for a few days, and when Yuan Shu thinks he can't stand it, he will definitely break through. When the time comes, the order to pursue Yuan Shu will still fall on the body of the Xuanwu battalion, are you still afraid that you will not have meritorious service! Gao Shun listened to Du Chen's words. After pondering for a moment, his face finally improved, and the gloom on his face just now disappeared in an instant.
And Cao Chun, who was on the side, saw Gao Shun's face change so quickly, and he also secretly stammered beside him. Then, he couldn't help but joke: "Even if what Mr. said is true, but defeat is defeat." Gongxiao, don't forget jì, you still owe a month of lunch. ”
Heard Cao Chun's ridicule. Gao Shun, who was already calm, suddenly became depressed again. Then, he glanced at Cao Chun fiercely. Then he stared and said, "Manly man, if you lose, you lose." If you are a man, do you dare to compete with Shun again? ”
Cao Chun smiled, and then said: "When you are a pure fool, pure talent will not be deceived." Mr. once said: There are many dreams at night, and the pure and idle egg hurts. Why bother yourself! ”
Cao Chun stiffened his neck and said, looking how hateful and hateful he was. On the other hand, Gao Shun, his face was already stinky at this time. Seeing this, all the people in the tent couldn't help but laugh.
Hearing everyone's laughter, the thick-skinned Cao Chun didn't have anything unusual. And Gao Shun, who was already angry with Cao Chun, was red-faced, embarrassed and didn't know what to say.
"Alright, that's it!" At this time, Du Chen spoke out to stop him. A joke is a joke, but the two of them must not be allowed to see what is going on. Whether it is the White Tiger Battalion or the Xuanwu Battalion, they are all the elite of the Cao Army. The two complement each other, and the combat power that erupts is absolutely amazing. But if there is a contradiction between the two, it will definitely be a big loss for Cao Jun.
"Dust can't figure it out, the troops under the command of the two of you, you are cavalry, he is infantry, there is nothing to do with the two, why fight for your life. If Zi really wants to compare with you, it will be compared with Zhongkang's Qinglong Battalion. Du Chen looked at Cao Chun with a smile and said.
Du Chen's words somewhat made Cao Chun's face a little weird. It's not that Cao Chun doesn't want to compare, it's that he doesn't have the strength to compete with the Qinglong Camp. The soldiers of the Qinglong Battalion are all masters of riding and archery, and their riding skills and archery skills are higher than those of the White Tiger Battalion. This is an indisputable fact, even if you don't admit it.
Seeing Cao Chun's appearance, Du Chen shook his head and said, "Zihe doesn't need to be like this, the battle is about coordination." A battle can only be won under the coordination of multiple arms, and it is not just one branch of the army that can decide life and death. ”
"You have a different division of labor, and there is really no comparison. You may think that the archery skills of the White Tiger Battalion are not as good as the Vermilion Bird Battalion, but have you ever thought that the Vermilion Bird Battalion does not have any impact ability, while your White Tiger Battalion can gallop in the enemy formation, rushing back and forth. ”
"Your White Tiger Battalion's killing skills may not be as good as the Xuanwu Battalion, but your marching speed and pursuit speed are definitely not comparable to the Xuanwu Battalion. Therefore, each has its own advantages and has its own role. If you fight in coordination with three parties. The Xuanwu battalion was in the center, the Vermilion Bird battalion was wandering left and right, and the White Tiger battalion was charging into battle, how spectacular and powerful it was. Just ask, who in the world can resist such elites. ”
Du Chen's words made Cao Chun see a new tomorrow. Through Du Chen's enlightenment just now, Cao Chun also had some epiphany. That's right, sir's words are not wrong at all. Whether it's cavalry, foot, or archer, all have their own advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, I don't care about this matter.
Thinking of this, Cao Chun's eyes flashed with a hint of determination. Then he turned his head to look at Du Chen, and then said in a deep voice: "Sir, you can rest assured, Chun has already figured it out." ”
"In that case, let's go down and rest over there." Du Chen nodded with satisfaction, then turned his head and said to the rest of the soldiers in the tent: "You all go back to the camp quickly to rest." The war is coming, you and others have enough body to make meritorious contributions on the battlefield! ”
"No!" All the generals took the order in unison, and then pushed down one after another to rest. The big war is coming, and you have to keep your best body in order to be able to fight beautifully in battle.
After the congregation will leave Du Chen's tent. Du Chen smiled slightly, and then he turned around and went down to rest.
The march is a very fortunate thing, even though the marching speed is not fast when Du Chen comes, but most of the marching time is spent on horseback, so tiredness is certain. In order to have a better mental state tomorrow, Du Chen needs enough rest. Only when you are strong can you have the strength to defeat the enemy. Before the enemy is defeated, he is exhausted, and he must be the one who loses.
A day's rest. Whether it is Du Chen or Cao Jun, they have restored their mental and physical state to the fullest state. And all the siege equipment has also been loaded.
After getting this series of news, Du Chen knew that it was time to start attacking Yuan Shu.
"Pass my order, order all the men and horses, and follow the dust to Shouchun City and call for battle." Du Chen said coldly, with a little domineering in his words.
"No!" The soldiers knelt down to receive the order, and then turned around and walked out of Du Chen's camp. Not for a while. The soldiers returned, and the three armies were ready to go.
Du Chen nodded. Then he walked out of the big tent, mounted his war horse and rode towards the gate of the wall.
Outside the Cao army camp, all the Cao army soldiers stood here neatly. Every soldier of the Cao Army is resolute, and the thick aura of slaughter makes the birds in the sky dare not approach.
Du Chen looked at the black-pressed Cao soldiers and didn't say anything. It's not that Du Chen doesn't know what to say. There are so many soldiers, even if they say it themselves, most of them can't hear what they say.
Du Chen waved his hand, and then the army marched forward. All the way, in a safe location. Du Chen stretched out his hand to restrain the army. He glanced at Shou Chuncheng, and then said to the generals beside him: "Zixiao, go and call the battle!" ”
Cao Ren hurriedly received the order, and then stepped forward. In a place where he thought it was safe, Cao Ren grabbed the reins and began to shout and curse outside the city.
Cao Ren's mouth is not poisonous, and his hurtful words make people even more angry when they hear it. And Du Chen also valued Cao Ren's point that made him come forward to call the battle.
Looking at Cao Ren, who was scolding in front of him, the generals of the Cao army couldn't help but shrink their necks. In the past, they had learned the power of Zixiao, but now that they saw it, they knew that their understanding of Zixiao was still quite one-sided. Back then, Zixiao was merciful to himself.
Cao Ren scolded for half an hour, and in this half an hour, he didn't even drink a sip of water.
But even though Cao Ren scolded so fiercely, Yuan Jun cowered in Shouchun City without showing his head at all. Du Chen had expected this. Presumably Yuan Shu was already panicking at this time, and he dared to order his soldiers to go out of the city to face the battle.
Since Yuan Shu can't come out, he can attack the city with peace of mind. He ordered Cao Ren to be called back, and then he asked the soldiers to retreat all the catapults.
The officers and men of Cao's army were all exceptionally effective, and in a short time, all the catapults were ready to be launched. Du Chen looked at the catapults one by one, and a cruel smile appeared on his face.
Even if you can't get out, just rely on these hundred and ten catapults, and the dust will make you want to stop. Your tortoise shell is indeed very hard, but if the dust smashes it, will you still be able to hold back and not go out.
"Pass the dust order, order all the catapults to smash the dust hard!" Du Chen said coldly, and Li Tong, who was beside him, hurriedly went down to give the order.
Moments later, the catapult camp was immediately busy. Then, with a loud sound, the catapults threw the boulders one after another.
I saw boulders whistling and speeding towards Shouchun City. And with the loud bang, the boulders fell on the walls of Shouchun City, and in an instant, Shouchun City was in a panic, in front of the huge stones, the thin armor on their bodies did not play any role at all. (To be continued......)
