Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
In the era of cold weapons, there is no smoke of war and no roar of artillery, but there is a kind of hot weapon that cannot be replaced, that is, bloody and cruel, which has more visual impact.
Cao Cao attacked the city with a bang, and the entire Cao army attacked the city wall like ants.
The four city gates in the southeast, northwest, and west were all under siege, and wave after wave of Cao troops made the city walls red with blood.
Although Zang Ba dismissed the soldiers, he was stationed in Kaiyang for a long time, so the entire city defense of Kaiyang was not inferior to Xiapi, and even if there was no Surabaya defense, Xiapi's protection would not be as good as him!
There was Boss Lu pressing the formation in the front, and the other three doors had Gao Shun and Zhang Liao, and Zang Ba was also stable in the presence of the army.
Liu Mang had just killed a wave of Cao's army at the head of the city, and before he had time to rest, Lao Cao's army attacked again.
There are four city gates, each of which has 20,000 people attacking, and there are tigers and leopards riding below.
"Kaiyang, Kaiyang!" Cao Cao squinted at the city in front of him, thinking that he was just a county town in Xuzhou, not as good as those important towns in Shangpi, but he was wrong, he had a numerical advantage and siege equipment, but he still suffered heavy casualties.
"Fengxiao, do you know who originally guarded this Kaiyang?!" Cao Cao asked.
Guo Fengxiao seemed to know what Lao Cao thought, took a sip of wine and said, "Zang Ba Zang Xuangao, Taishan Chinese, his father's name is Zang Jie, and he has two sons, Zang Ai and Zang Shun. When he was young, he gathered several people to rescue his father, who had been convicted, and has since gone into exile. Later, he became a cavalry lieutenant under Tao Qian, responsible for recruiting troops to resist the Yellow Turban Army. With Sun Guan, Yin Li and others, they supported troops and stationed in Kaiyang, becoming an independent force of their own. In the second year of Jian'an, he led his troops to defeat Xiao Jian and occupy Jucheng. The guide zhì Lu Bubing attacked Zang Ba, and then the two reconciled! ”
"Zang Bazang Xuangao?!" Cao Cao lowered his head and thought about it.
"This Kaiyang was originally Zang Ba's camp, and before it was subdued by Lu Bu, this was also the capital for Zang Ba to negotiate conditions with Tao Qian!" can make Kaiyang like a state capital with his own strength, this Zang Ba Zang Xuangao can not be described as a talent.
"Lord, lord, don't you always think about recruiting talents, you want to recruit Zang Ba? Okay, he is guarding the south gate now, and General Xiahoudun has already attacked several waves, and he can't even go up the city wall! "Guo Jia is also nerve-wracking, his lord is seriously suspicious, and he loves talents very much, and he wants to recruit anyone when he sees him. If it's so easy to recruit, does Lu Bu still need to come to Langxi?!
"The lord will ask for battle!" Seeing that his soldiers could not rush to the city wall for so long to attack Kaiyang, Xu Huang on the side was a little anxious
"Komeito!" Cao Cao looked at Xu Huang, who was asking for battle, and shook his head, "Don't worry, it's not time yet!" "On the head of the city, a golden-armored warrior shines in the sun, like a god of war! This is Lu Bu, as long as he stands there, Lu Bu's army is an undefeated army.
Lu Bu hasn't done it yet, how could he Cao Cao send his generals out, Xu Huang Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun, Yu Ban, Li Dian, these are all fierce generals under his old Cao, but none of these people are Lu Bu's opponents, and now it is impossible to have any other role than sending Lu Bu's head.
People fighting alone are not the opponents of tigers, but people will use stratagems, tired tactics, day and night non-stop siege of the city, he Cao Cao has people! As long as Lu Bu can be consumed to death, it is worth it to die as many people as he wants.
"It's a pity that my evil is no longer by my side!" Lao Cao's face was gloomy.
Guo Jia knew that Cao Cao remembered Dian Wei again, in the battle of Wancheng, Cao Cao not only lost his beloved son, but also lost such a fierce general.
The sky is gradually darkening, the sun is about to set, Cao Lu and the generals on both sides are relieved, in ancient times it was not like the modern night lights, in ancient times there was no light at night except for the moonlight, so the siege of the city was in the daytime.
"Mingjin retreats!" Cao Cao glanced at the golden-armored man at the head of the city, and the gold-armored Lu Bu seemed to know that Cao Cao was looking at him, so he also turned his gaze, and the two eyes looked at each other in the air, and a spark belonging to a hero like them in troubled times stirred up in the air.
"What about casualties?!" Lu Bu asked his junior colonel.
"More than 380 were wounded, and 122 people died!" The wound that the colonel said means that he is seriously injured, and he can no longer go to the battlefield, and in one day, in just one day, there are more than 500 casualties, and there are more than 2,000 people on the four city walls.
How many people are there in Lu Bu? If there are less than 10,000, can it only last for five days!?
No one pays attention to the casualties of the Cao army, and the corpses under the city are no less than three thousand, but so what? Cao Jun can afford it, but he Lu Bu can't afford it.
"What can I do if the public platform is like this?!" Lu Bu had never wanted his strategists to come up with a plan to retreat Cao Cao's army as he did today.
"Bongxian!" Chen Gong also looked gloomy, they were all pitted by Zang Ba, if Zang Ba did not dismiss the army, relying on 30,000 soldiers from Mount Tai, plus 10,000 Chen family troops on the road, and 40,000 troops in hand, Cao Cao would never dare to act rashly, but now that the 30,000 army is gone, all that is left is 5,000 stone of grain and hundreds of pairs of armor plus less than 100 war horses.
The current situation is even more severe than that of Pi, and there are no soldiers and horses outside Xuzhou who can help them.
"Hey!" Lu Bu sighed, he didn't know that he had fallen into a dead end, and the battle of Xiapi had already let him know that there was no city in this world that could not be breached.
"If you really can't do anything, Gongtai, you take Buzhi's daughter, as well as Liu Mang, Gao Shun, Zhang Liao, and Zangba, and they ride more than 100 war horses to break through!" Lu Bu's eyes shimmered: "With me, Lu Bu can definitely help you delay for a day or two!" ”
"My lord! Never! "Why is Lu Bujun called Lu Bujun, it is because there is Lu Bu's storage, if Lu Bu is gone, is this still called Lu Bujun!
Liu Mang stood aside and didn't speak, but his heart was warm, at this critical juncture, Lu Bu didn't say that he broke through but thought of his daughter and thought of him Liu Mang, to be honest, he Liu Mang actually worked for Lu Bu, but the boss Lu Bu could think of him everywhere, that feeling was like an elder! Yes, it's the feeling that the elders have for the juniors.
The button in his body that showed the teleportation had flashed up again, and Liu Mang originally planned to leave, but now.
"Give me money!" Liu Mang said indifferently.
"Huh?!" Chen Gong frowned. When is this still thinking about money?
"I said give me money!" Liu Mang repeated it again, looking at Lu Bu and Chen Gong's incomprehensible expressions, Liu Mang explained: "Three days, as long as you hold on for three days, I can come back, didn't General Zhang Liao say it, as long as there are enough horses, his wolf ride will definitely move forward!" I can bring you horses, bring armor, but I need money, a lot of money! ”
"Is that true?!" Lu Bu's eyes lit up, as long as his subordinates and the wolf cavalry of the state had horses, they were real wolf cavalry, tiger and leopard cavalry, white horse Congyi, and Xiliang iron cavalry were not taken by Lu Bu in his eyes.
"When did I lie to you!" Liu Mang rolled his eyes: "But I need a lot of gold!" ”
"How much do you need?!" Chen Gong still has a sad face, Kaiyang does not have much money left, in this troubled era, horses have become a strategic material, all controlled in the hands of several princes in the border area, such as Yuan Shao, such as Ma Teng, Han Sui and others, they are not ready to sell horses at all, even if they sell, it is a few tens of gold a horse, and at such a price, how many horses can be bought with the money left by Kaiyang.
Buying horses, Liu Mang is not an expert, but Liu Mang has a classmate whose family breeds horses, and there is a huge farm in Hongwei, Shandong.
Gold, according to the price of gold in the market when Liu Mang came, it was 3oo yuan a gram to buy an adult horse, and 35 grams to buy an adult horse, and a hundred horses was 35oo grams.
"How much do you need?!" Liu Mang asked rhetorically.
"A thousand war horses?!" Chen Gong cautiously said a number.
"A thousand?" Liu Mang calculated that it was 35ooo grams, which was 7o catties of gold when converted, and 112o gold according to the gold of the Three Kingdoms.
Liu Mang made up an integer "12oo gold!" ”
"What?!" Lu Bu jumped up in shock.
"This can't be?!" Chen Gong is not calm anymore, this price is too Nima cheating.
"Isn't it expensive?!" Liu Mang didn't know the price of war horses in the Three Kingdoms, but this was indeed the price of modern horse sales, "If it's too expensive, I can discuss it with that side!" "If you buy a thousand horses, that's more than 10 million transactions, and there will definitely be a discount for such a deal.
"No, no! Lu Bu and Chen Gong hurriedly shook their heads.
"How much gold is left in Kaiyang Mansion?!" Lu Buqiang endured his joy and asked Chen Gongdao.
"There are less than two thousand gold left, but General Zang Ba should still have a few thousand gold!" Zang Ba is ready to unload his armor and return to the field, and his mansion must have gathered a large number of assets that were originally Kaiyang.
"Good!" Lu Bu settled down and said, "Borrow 5,000 gold from Zang Ba, and say that I will return it twice in the future!" After the disaster, give all the 7,000 gold to Han Yang, I want 5,000 war horses! Lu Bu stretched out five fingers and said.
"Five thousand?!" Liu Mang's eyes widened and looked at Lu Bu, "This is 7,000 gold, even if you buy 5,000 war horses, there are still 2,000 gold left!" "Do you want to buy armor for the rest?!
Boss Lu is ready to play a big game.
