Chapter 514: Attack on Shouchun

Kill!!!

Outside Shouchun City, the shouts of killing were endless, and the blood and bones were piled up outside this Shouchun City, and there was almost no place for people to step on, and even the moat several meters wide outside Shouchun City was faintly flushed with a strange red.

However, the armies of Cao Cao and Lu Bu continued to rely on siege equipment and launched an attack on Nashouchun City. And this siege has been going on for three full hours, and there has been no pause for half a minute.

At this moment, everyone has already killed the red eyes, and everyone is confused by the murderous aura on this battlefield, even if there is a dead end in front of them, they will not hesitate to rush forward.

As early as half a month ago, after Cao Cao and Lu Bu's army solved the 200,000 army of Na Ji Ling, they directly sent troops to Shouchun, and the 300,000 army surrounded this Shouchun City without hesitation.

The art of war has clouds, ten and surround it, five and attack it, and divide it twice.

Although the army had been surrounded by Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shouchun before, it was just an expedient measure.

300,000 against 200,000, it is true that there is an advantage. But if you want to besiege this Shouchun City, it is absolutely unrealistic.

Not to mention that Cao Cao and they don't have enough troops, even if they can really have enough troops, it is impossible to encircle this Shouchun and die inside.

You must know that this Shouchun is his Yuan Shu's lair, and the equipment and food in it are unusually sufficient. I'm afraid that before he Cao Cao trapped that Yuan Shu to death, there would be no food to eat on their own side.

The potter had promised to provide food and grass for the Allies, but it couldn't be endless. Sooner or later, you'll run out. Therefore, the strategy of besieging is absolutely unrealistic.

And it is not a good way to attack the city directly, although they have an advantage in terms of troops, but after all, Yuan Shu has the advantage of the city wall. If they attack the city directly, even if they can take Heshouchun, it will definitely be a heavy loss, and the gains outweigh the losses, but they will follow Liu Yao's wishes and have a sandpiper to compete for the fisherman's profit.

In desperation, Na Lu Bu had no choice but to set up a professional scolding team of 300 people and bring soldiers and horses to the scolding team. Want to see if there are any opportunities.

But it's a pity. If someone else comes to scold the formation, I'm afraid that I will really be dazzled by the scolding of these three hundred people, and then directly lead the troops out to fight alone.

But now this person who scolds the formation is Lu Bu. The world's number one general, who dares to provoke it. Even Ji Lingna, the most powerful of them, was no match for his Lu Bu, let alone their little minions.

In addition, a group of scribes such as Yan Xiang and Li Feng desperately demanded that they not be allowed to go out to fight, and they hung up their exemption cards. It also made no one under his command send troops without authorization. Go and die.

And if this is dragged on, it will be five days. Then Cao Cao and Lu Bu were also a little anxious when they saw such a situation.

For a while, they couldn't do anything about this Shouchun, who was like a turtle shell. He Yuan Shu only cared about defending the city. No matter how much you scold, what else can you do, there is no way to say it.

And if this situation drags on, it will be very unfavorable for them. They also saw that this Yuan technique wanted to delay time by strictly guarding it. As long as the food and grass in their army are used up, this crisis will naturally be resolved.

He Cao Cao also had to say that this method was indeed the best way, if it dragged on, then the first one who couldn't hold on was definitely Cao Cao and them. If they can't take this Shouchun in a short period of time, I'm afraid they can really only come back with their own troops, whether it is for him Cao Cao or for him Lu Bu. That's something you don't want to see.

If he, Liu Yao, seized such an excuse, I am afraid that he will use the holy order to punish them. If he Liu Yao came to ask the two of them to enter Jixian County to plead guilty. How could the two of them go. Once I go to Naji County, I'm afraid I won't be able to get out in this life.

But if he doesn't go, it will be disobeying the holy order, and he will be directly caught by him Liu Yao with an excuse, and then he can send troops to deal with them, and at this time, he Cao Cao is also very clear that even if he can add up to Lu Bu, it is definitely not his Liu Yao's opponent.

Therefore, the only way is to take down this Shouchun and not let him Liu Yao get an excuse.

This is the previous scene, he Cao Cao and Lu Bu are also worried that the night is long and dreamy, and the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be for them.

Therefore, the idea of directly attacking the city was also raised. Of course, they were not so reckless and directly attacked Shouchun in a big way. Instead, a part of the troops was divided to tentatively attack the city first.

Since he Cao Cao and Lu Bu are allied, then naturally they can't just look at it and don't do it. He, Liu Bei and Guan Yu, led 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the North City Gate. Lu Bu's brother-in-law Wei Xu and Cao Xing also led 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the West City Gate.

On Cao Cao's side, Xiahou Chun led 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the south city gate, and Cao Ren also led 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the last east city gate.

Dispatched 80,000 troops at one time to jointly besiege this Shouchun City from all sides, although it was just a temptation, but it was also a big deal.

On Yuan Shu's side, in the face of the direct siege troops, they naturally would not sit idly by, and immediately Yuan Shu's four generals, Liu Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo, and Chen Lan, each led an army of 30,000, one of them guarded a city wall, and fought against Cao Cao Lu Bu's allies.

At the beginning, Cao Cao and Lu Bu planned to test it first, to see how the combat effectiveness of the Yuan Shu army was, and by the way, to see if there was a way to find some opportunities from it.

But what they never expected was that the combat effectiveness of Yuan Shu's army was so weak. Even if they were 20,000 to 30,000, that would have the upper hand.

Actually, it's no wonder. How could Liu Xun, Qiao Rui, Lei Bo, and Chen Lan be compared with Guan Yu and Xiahou Chun.

As for that army, not to mention, although his Yuan Shu's army was able to beat him Liu Biao, it was purely because his Liu Biao's army was also weak.

But now as soon as he encountered the army of Cao Cao and Lu Bu, this disadvantage suddenly came out.

Don't mention Lu Bu, not to mention that all the soldiers under his command are elite divisions, even if it's not, as long as he Lu Bu is still in one day, his Lu Bu's army can exert two hundred percent combat effectiveness.

And he Cao Cao is not weak, he brought 200,000 Qingzhou troops this time, this is his Cao Cao's most powerful force, and where is his Yuan Shu's weak people can resist.

The two armies were just a face, and Yuan Shujun was directly suppressed.

Immediately, when he Cao Cao and Chen Gong saw such a situation, without saying a word, they did not hesitate to order to continue the siege of the city, and this time it was no longer a temptation, but the whole army pressed on and attacked the city with all their might.

Obviously, he, Cao Cao, is ready to take this Shouchun City in one fell swoop. (To be continued......)
