Under Gwangju Castle.

"Kill, kill, kill!" Countless soldiers and horses under the banner of Cao's army surged towards the head of Gwangju City, both above and below the city were densely covered with corpses.

Blood had already stained the walls of Gwangju Castle red for him.

Night slowly fell, and the defenders at the head of the city took advantage of the night to repel the enemy's attacks again and again.

"General, do we really have reinforcements?" And one of the lieutenants at the head of the city asked the chief commander who was on the side, and said that this had been the fourth day for them to hold out.

"Yes, there will be, the king will not give up on us!" The Lord General said with certainty.

Thinking of him Hao Shao, he became famous in Gwangju in the first war, but he didn't expect to come to Gwangju again this time.

"This damn Wei Yan!" The adjutant said hatefully.

"yes, this damn Wei Yan!" Hao Shao also said angrily, Hao Shao really couldn't understand why Wei Yan rebelled.

Wei Yan helped Wang Shang win against Zhang Xiu, defeated Liu Bei, and fought against Sun Ce, so it can be said that he is the descendant of Liu Mangjun's lineage.

It was precisely because of Wei Yan's military exploits that Liu Mang taught Yuzhou to Wei Yan and his Hao Shao.

Hao Shao is good at defense, but he is not good at attacking cities, so Hao Shao gave up the position of the general of Yuzhou to Wei Yan.

I thought that Wei Yan was in Yuzhou, and Yuzhou must be impregnable, but I never thought that Wei Yan, who was the commander of Yuzhou, would rebel against His Royal Highness the King of Han and join Cao Cao's command.

Only then did the entire Yangzhou army be caught off guard.

"Mr. Frustration!" Hao Shao thought of a person, the old figure, and the last desolation. I couldn't help but sigh bitterly, "Why bother! ”

Frustrated, he committed suicide. Because at the beginning, when I found out that Cao Cao's army had made a move. It was Frustrated that he suggested that the Minister of Internal Affairs Xu Shu send troops to fight with Cao Cao's army in Yuzhou for a generation, and prevent Cao Cao's army from entering the territory of the Yangzhou army, so as to buy time for Liu Mang, the lord who was far away in Yizhou.

It could have been said to be safe, the elite of the 50,000 Yangzhou army, and the border of Chen soldiers, it can be said that Cao Cao had trouble sleeping.

If Cao Cao didn't take out several times the number of troops and horses to defend himself, then he would be able to attack all parts of Yanzhou at any time.

But who would have thought. Wei Yan, the general of Yuzhou, is Cao Cao's person.

Cao Jun and Wei Yan were attacked inside and outside, Yangzhou soldiers and horses were defeated, if it were not for the old general Huang Zhong and Mr. Fu Zhu, the two turned the tide and won most of the soldiers and horses to retreat.

I'm afraid that none of the 50,000 troops will want to come back.

In this way, there were less than 30,000 soldiers and horses who came back, and it was in this way that Hao Shao retreated from Yuzhou to Guangzhou.

Now Hao Shao's task, one is to block the speed of Cao Cao's army, so that Shouchun has sufficient preparations, and the other is to wait for reinforcements.

"Two days, Your Majesty. In two days, I won't be able to take it anymore! Hao Shao looked at the broken walls of Gwangju City. And those corpses, fortunately, the weather is not hot now, otherwise those corpses will definitely stink.

The countless wails in the dark night resounded all night, and Hao Shao himself was not able to rest well, so he found a place at random to sleep in his clothes.

The sky soon brightened, and the sun shone down on the earth.

Hao Shao was woken up by someone, because Cao Cao's army under the city moved again.

"Gwangju!" Cao Cao looked at the fortified city, and the figure holding the telescope above the city.

"This Gwangju City guard is called Hao Shao, isn't it?!" Cao Cao asked a red-faced warrior next to him.

This person is none other than Wei Yan, Wei Yan lowered his head and said, "It's Hao Shao!" ”

Wei Yan and Hao Shao set up a team in Yuzhou to compliment Yuzhou, Cao Cao thought that even Wei Yan, the general of Yuzhou, had surrendered to him, and the Yangzhou army was not worried, and the main force of the Yangzhou army was also defeated.

Ruyin, Yingshang, Xia Cai, and Runan are simply looking at the wind, even some diehards have been cleaned up by Cao Cao's army.

But I never thought that I would be deflated in such a small Gwangju city.

His army has been attacking here for four days, Cao Cao is simply non-stop attack, the defenders in the city are only 5,000 people, and they have resisted his Cao Cao's army of hundreds of thousands of troops for four days.

Cao Cao also admired the arrival of this guard Hao Shao, which is simply a human city wall.

"Go, question me, and tell this man that if he is willing to surrender, I will treat him as a general!" Cao Cao spoke very happily.

The general said it very generally, but he couldn't run away from the assassination.

The dissatisfaction in Wei Yan's eyes flashed away, he Wei Yan was burdened with the word of betrayal, and he gave up so much, not to mention that the Yangzhou army had regarded Wei Yan as a mortal enemy, even in Cao Cao's army, those generals also looked down on him, Wei Yan was only a rear general in the end, but now Cao Cao was impressed by this Hao Shao. General, this official position is not comforting.

However, although he was dissatisfied, Wei Yan now had no choice, so he could only go all the way to the dark with Cao Cao.

immediately sent someone to come forward to recruit Hao Shao, and was naturally shot by Hao Shao.

"Your Majesty, this man will not surrender at all!" Wei Yan once again dissuaded Cao Cao.

Hao Shao was one of the wolf riders in Bingzhou from the beginning, and was later recommended to Gao Shun by Zhang Liao, who felt that this person followed him to Qucai, so he gave it to Liu Mang.

became famous in Gwangju, it was Liu Mang who gave him the opportunity, the grace of knowing the encounter, coupled with his original identity, such a person must be Liu Mang's diehard.

"Okay!" Cao Cao could only nod, he was really unwilling, "This Liu Mang child has so many loyal and righteous people following him!" Ay! "Cao Cao is slowly jealous, Liu Mang's Yangzhou New Army, Cao Cao has not been captured, but these individuals are either martyred, or they would rather die than surrender, thinking that the Yangzhou army can defeat them in the end, thinking that the Yangzhou army can finally defeat him Cao Cao.

"Why should the lord worry, isn't there such a thing as General Wei Yan!" An old man beside Cao Cao said with a smile, this person is Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu is a poisoner, but all the same. He was also a man of dead dogma. Guo Jia hates to encounter Cheng Yu the most. In the eyes of people like Cheng Yu, Guo Jia is deviant.

And Wei Yan, a person who betrayed his master, is not a thing in Cheng Yu's eyes.

As soon as he said this, Wei Yan was really embarrassed, what is it called General Wei Yan.

"Zhongde?!" Cao Cao first warned Cheng Yu, and then said to Wei Yan'an, "If there is no Wen Chang, Gu still doesn't know when he will be able to evaluate the world, and the sacrifice made by Wen Chang." It's huge! ”

These words are different when they reach Cao Cao's mouth, at first it was Wei Yan who was a traitor, but in Cao Cao's words, Wei Yan worked hard for the unification of the world, gave up his personal shame, and suddenly became tall.

"Your Majesty, we can't drag it out any longer, Gwangju City should also be taken!" Wei Yan hugged his fist at Cao Cao.

"Teach it to you, Bun Chief!" Cao Cao patted Wei Yan's shoulder and said with a pleasant face.

"The last general commands!" Wei Yan immediately walked out.

"Lord, is this person really reliable?" watched Wei Yan leave. Cheng Yu began to ask Cao Cao again.

Cheng Yu is also a person who knows physiognomy, and Wei Yan has a backbone in the back of his head. He can betray even Liu Mang, let alone Cao Cao.

"He can't go back to Yangzhou, apart from me, is there a place for him Wei Yan in this world?" Cao Cao was very calm.

"By the way, Zhongde, has our army delivered grain and grass this month?" The most important thing in marching and fighting is food and grass.

It's almost the middle of the month, but the grain and grass have not been delivered.

"Haven't delivered it yet!" Cheng Yu also regained his enthusiasm for work, you must know that Cheng Yu is much older than Cao Cao, but this little old man, once he enters the working state, he is full of energy.

"It hasn't been delivered yet! What is Cao Pi doing! Cao Cao was a little annoyed, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses in this army, and the amount of money used for a day is massive, if there is no grain and grass in the camp, it is impossible to get food on the spot, Cao Cao wants a complete Yangzhou, but he doesn't want a Yangzhou that does not save one.

Cao Cao was angry, but he no longer called Cao Pi's nickname Pi'er.

"Lord, have you forgotten that you have taught this grain and grass transportation to the little boy!" Cheng Yu was upset about Cao Pi, and Cao Cao gave him Cao Pi's grain and grass skills as early as when he set out on the expedition.

gave the youngest son Cao Chong, plus Cao Chong grabbed a few Cao Piren's small tails on the supply of grain and grass, which squeezed Cao Pi out.

The current grain and grass are in the hands of Zai Cao Chong.

"Chong'er!" In this way, it can be seen that Cao Pi made a mistake, that is Cao Pi, and Cao Chong made a mistake, or Chong'er.

"Send me someone to give me a push! No, no, Zhongde, you personally run and help Chong'er plan as a whole! Cao Cao said to Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu drove Cao Cao, he was not a fool, naturally he also knew what Cao Cao thought, I am afraid that Cao Cao really has the idea of changing the successor.

Cao Pi! Second son! Although in Cheng Yu's view, Cao Pi has nothing to find fault with, whether it is dealing with the world or dealing with government affairs, rewards and punishments, he is a top ten successor, but after all, this world is Cao Cao's.

Cao Cao now has a doting meaning for his youngest son, if this youngest son is an incompetent person, it will be fine.

But this little son is a genius in the true sense of the word. Although he is young, he can be proficient in the six arts, and he is not inferior to Cao Pi in other aspects, you must know how old Cao Chong is now.

"Hey!" Cheng Yu couldn't say anything more, he could only say that Cao Pi was born at the wrong time and had bad luck.

Cao Cao's choice of Cao Chong as his successor is not necessarily a bad thing.

Immediately, Cheng Yu retreated and left.

The war in Gwangju continued, and Wei Yan took out the red-clothed battalion under the city.

All the cannons are facing Gwangju City, a few days ago it was Cao Cao who cherished Hao Shao's talent, but today it will not be.

An artillery battalion let out a roar, just like Chengdu Mansion, and countless cannonballs flew up the city wall and bombarded the city wall.

Wei Yan's unpleasant artillery bombardment was the city of the diehards who had destroyed how many of Yuzhou's stubborn resistance to the end, but today it was ineffective.

It turned out that Gwangju City belonged to Yangzhou, after Liu Mang's industrial park built the cement, the first part was to reinforce Shouchun, and then it was the dam cement project outside Shouchun City, and then it was the city of Yangzhou in Gwangju, and then there was too much cement, Liu Mang used him to build roads, which is enough to see that Gwangju is now strong.

Cao Cao used the advantage of numbers before, Hao Shao had no choice but to come hard, and now Wei Yan used artillery bombardment, although those cannonballs hit the city wall, and the city wall was also sunken in, but it was not as exaggerated as Chengdu Mansion, and the shells could only leave a mark on Gwangju City one by one, but they could not shatter them.

Wei Yan took out the cannon, and Hao Shao was not surprised, because Hao Shao had been waiting for this time too long.

Wei Yan betrayed Liu Mang, and also transferred an artillery battalion from Yangzhou, which had 3,000 cannons and 50 cannons, and 1,000 cannons and 100 cannons.

Such a heavy weapon, if it is taken outside Shouchun City, and the bombardment of ammunition is not restricted, even if it is a city made of cement, it will not be able to bear it.

Now that Wei Yan has taken out the red-clothed battalion, Hao Shao smiled, one is that his Guangzhou can consume Wei Yan's already small number of shells, and the second is that Hao Shao also has cannons in his hands.

It's not three thousand, but a thousand cannons, not many but ten, these are all transferred from Yingshui, Hao Shao has always been useless, in order to surprise Wei Yan.

"Blossom shell loading, target the redcoat battalion!" Hao Shao, who gave this order, was in pain in his heart, the red-clothed battalion was the hard work of the Yangzhou army, and over the years, there were only three battalions in total.

Now it's up to you to destroy him.

Boom, boom, Gwangju City also let out his roar, and countless flowering bombs fell in the red-clothed camp.

Cao Cao was dumbfounded, but Wei Yan's face was completely gloomy.

100 cannons against 10 cannons, the final result is known without guessing, and all the batteries above Gwangju Castle are dumb. Wei Yan himself also suffered a lot of losses, just now, under the bombardment, nearly thirty cannons were blown up, along with five three thousand city-breaking cannons.

Wei Yan waved his hand again, and the army covered the past towards Gwangju City.

Gwangju City could no longer hold on, and countless Cao troops rushed into the city.

Hao Shao wanted to die for his country, but was stopped by Xu Chu, who rushed into the city.

Xu Chu knocked the war knife in Hao Shao's hand, making Hao Shao's suicide a luxury, Hao Shao looked around with a wry smile, "Your Majesty, it is difficult for me to be loyal to you!" ”

Hao Shao also wanted to bite off his tongue, but was knocked unconscious by Xu Chu, Hao Shao was captured, and all the 5,000 Yangzhou troops in the city were killed.

Cao Cao's army entered Gwangju City, the red-clothed battalion was damaged, Cao Cao was also very distressed, but he knew how powerful these things called cannons were, and even Cao Cao was afraid, if he hadn't recruited Wei Yan by himself, with Wei Yan's handle in his hand, I am afraid that he would be Cao Cao who was unlucky.

Which city under Cao Cao can withstand such a bombardment.

The Red Battalion lost nearly one-third of its strength in the first battle, not only the artillery was damaged, but even the shells were not enough.

You must know that there is also a red-clothed battalion in Shouchun, if you use these cannons to bombard the second red battalion, there is no chance of winning.

After thinking about it, Wei Yan gave Cao Cao an idea.

Surprise attack on Yangzhou Industrial Zone. (To be continued......)
