But when it comes to siege and defend cities, there is indeed no army like an army.

This legion has always been under Zhang Chao's own control, and all training subjects are also determined. This is also a legion that is destined to be used as firefighters. The reason why Zhang Chao formed it was because he wanted them to become an invincible and defensive army.

Therefore, when it comes to siege warfare and siege warfare, a legion is the strongest existence. Originally, it was a legion that was used at a critical time, but in yesterday's battle, under the leadership of the deputy corps commander Wen Chou, he actually killed more than 6,000 Liu Beijun in the city with a loss of 3,000 soldiers.

It is definitely a miracle that the besieging side can appear with a one-to-two ratio of casualties.

That is, the first legion can do this, this is still because of Zhang Chao's guidance at all times, in order to achieve this goal, the soldiers of the first legion do not know how much blood and sweat they have shed, under the guidance of Zhang Chao's exercise, a group of soldiers were injured and persuaded to retire, and a batch of fresh blood was replenished, which is what is now the result.

I think at the beginning, there were still many people who had different ideas about this matter. After all, just for training, there were so many wounded, and even some people were not seriously injured, but they were indeed withdrawn from the first legion and changed to serve in other legions, such a large-scale personnel transfer, that is, in the first legion, everything is Zhang Chao's meaning, and no one dares to stop it.

Many people didn't understand why Zhang Chao did this at the time, but now, looking at the results of this siege battle, they are finally convinced. The lord is the lord, and even the army that is trained is extraordinary.

It's not wrong to say, can't you see the existence of Zhang Jiajun? They are known as an invincible army. Especially the heavy cavalry of the Zhang family, although there are only 10,000, if it comes to frontal slaughter on the battlefield, I am afraid that 50,000, 80,000, or even 100,000 people will not be able to make the slightest cheap.

The results of the siege of one legion naturally stimulated the other three legions. After a day of siege, the commander of the Zhang He, the commander of the Dian Wei and the commander of the Zhang Liao army went to the garrison of the first corps despite their fatigue, found the deputy corps commander Wen Chou, and asked for support.

In this regard, Wen Chou agreed in one bite. As early as noon, Zhang Chao's order came down, asking him to invite several division commanders of the first army to give lectures to the generals above the regimental commander level of the other three army corps. Although it is not expected that they will soon be able to catch up with the pace of the first army, it should still have some effect if they are not happy to sharpen their guns in battle.

Facts have also proved this, in the next two days of attack, the fourth, sixth, and seventh corps began to cooperate with the siege according to the method of the first corps, and indeed played a good effect, at least on the side of casualties a lot, on the side of the siege of the enemy to increase a little.

Under the advantages of one another, it was only a four-day siege battle, and Liu Bei's army, which originally had 200,000 defenders in Chang'an City, now only half of the 100,000 people left who could fight.

This also includes those who have suffered minor injuries but are still able to fight.

You must know that the more the battle goes on to the end, the more elite forces can be left, these people are veterans of a hundred battles, and the difficulty of wanting to be killed has undoubtedly increased a lot, but in the face of the onslaught of the four legions, they will still have a large number of casualties every day, so you can see where the danger lies.

Zhuge Liang in Chang'an City finally couldn't be as calm as he was a few days ago.

originally thought that Zhang Chao just wanted to surround Chang'an City and do something to encircle and send reinforcements. The so-called siege is just for show. But after four days, the facts told him that this was not the case at all, and the people were completely carrying out a fierce attack, and they really wanted to capture Chang'an City.

Although Zhang Chao's army, which had besieged the city fiercely, had also paid 170,000 casualties for this, their losses were extremely low compared to those who were besieging the city. Not to mention, they have nearly 500,000 troops in four legions, and they have killed 170,000 people, and there are still more than 300,000 people eyeing them outside.

"Military advisor, Zhang Chaojun is completely crazy, as long as it is dawn, he will launch a crazy attack. The offensive was wave after wave, and there was no end. The attack will only stop when it is completely dark. Zhang Fei, a fierce general with the ability to fight 10,000 enemies, finally couldn't stand it at this moment, and once again came to the city to find Zhuge Liang to discuss countermeasures.

"Strategist, didn't you say that once we fight, Cao Cao will send troops? Why haven't they come yet? Zhang Fei asked anxiously.

Every day, you can see your soldiers killed and killed, which is a very bad feeling, which makes Zhang Fei's original irritable side of his body also revealed.

It is said that if Zhuge Liang hadn't personally sat in the formation here, I am afraid that he would have led his troops to find a way out of the city. He would never stay in this city.

Feeling the anxiety and violence in Zhang Chao's heart, Zhuge Liang just glanced at him and replied: "It's only been four days since the siege of the city, even if Cao Cao wants to raise troops to help, it is impossible to arrive so quickly." ”

"Oh, too." Just one sentence left Zhang Fei speechless.

Speaking of which, I'm afraid that no one thought that it was only four days before the siege of the city, and Chang'an City lost more than half of its troops, so it was necessary to have a sense of danger that it could not be defended.

Just used one sentence, so that Zhang Fei, who was still irritable, had nothing to say. I have to say that Zhuge Liang does have outstanding points in language.

But the war between the two armies cannot be won by the strength of language. This is not above the court, you can refute others speechless if you have a reason. It's like Zhang Chao's army, after coming here, he didn't mention anything, and the reason for raising troops is to attack is the same.

Zhang Fei calmed down a little, and Zhuge Liang said slowly: "The four major legions attacking the city are indeed outstanding, I underestimated him before, so immediately send a carrier pigeon to General Guan and ask him to send troops to help." and Dong Zhuo also informed Fa Zheng and asked him to persuade that side to come to the rescue. Even if Zhang Chaotie is determined to defeat us in front of Chang'an City, then we will surround them here for a counter-encirclement and annihilation. ”

Zhuge Liang has always liked to keep a back hand in doing things, and at the same time, he is even more talented in taking advantage of the situation.

Now that it is determined that Zhang Chao is going to capture Chang'an City, his strategy will also be changed. In the past, I wanted to wait for the annihilation of the enemy army in the movement, but now it has to be changed to besiege the enemy in one place and fight it well.

Listening to Zhuge Liang's orders, Zhang Fei's confident look reappeared on his face. "Okay, then we'll be on guard for a few days, I'll see how long this Zhang Chao can bounce once the second brother and Dong Zhuo's army comes."

At this moment, Zhang Fei seemed to have seen the scene of Zhang Chao's army being surrounded and then slaughtered by himself.

The carrier pigeon was released from Chang'an City, and on the third day after that, Guan Yu's army, which was attacking Pang De under Poqiang City, suddenly began to collect troops.

This made Wei Yan, the vanguard general who was leading the army to attack the city, very puzzled.

As soon as he led the army to retreat, he returned to the big tent in the barracks and asked Guan Yu: "General, why did you suddenly withdraw the army." The city is about to be undefended, give me two days, no, I should be able to capture the city in one day at most, and then whether it is Ma Chao or Pang De, they will become the souls of the sword. ”

Indeed, when Zhang Chao besieged Chang'an, Guan Yu felt a trace of danger, and soon began to order the siege of the city, and then the city became precarious.

There were only 50,000 defenders in the city, and in the face of the 300,000 troops led by Guan Yu, they were struggling to resist.

Although it is said that it was blocked by the height of the city, the loss is indeed increasing day by day. After these days of fierce fighting, I am afraid that there may not even be 5,000 combat power in the city now. This is also the reason why Wei Yan is a little displeased.

"One day? I can't give you half a day. Tell you, I just received a letter from the military advisor, Chang'an City is in danger, and we need to rescue it quickly. Guan Yu said with a frown.

Although Chang'an City was besieged, Guan Yu didn't think it was really dangerous. There is the third brother Zhang Fei here, and there are 200,000 troops in the city, and the previous military advisor Zhuge Liang was prepared, there is enough grain, grass and food in the city, he can't think of anything, it is only six days, and he is about to call for help. Could it be that Zhang Chao's army is really so powerful, facing them, even the military advisor and the third brother can't withstand it?

Not to mention the surprise in his heart, Guan Yu at this moment has no time to think too much about the problem, Chang'an City is dangerous, if it is captured, once something happens to the military advisor and the third brother, it will be too great for Liu Bei's group, and even if it is not good, it will be ruined because of it.

is saying that Guan Yu is here, and he will never allow anything to happen to the third brother. They have a peach orchard righteousness and an oath of life and death.

That's why I didn't ask for it even if I could capture the city.

Hearing what Guan Yuzhi said, Wei Yan didn't dare to say something. He is not stupid, it can be imagined, if Chang'an City is allowed to be breached, then no one is trying to contain Zhang Chao, in that case, this enemy may go straight behind him, if so, I am afraid that they will be in danger.

That's exactly what the lips and teeth are talking about.

Even if Qiangcheng is not attacked, the great military should not be delayed, and it will be necessary to immediately counterattack Chang'an. Immediately, Guan Yu's army, which still had 220,000 troops, set off in the direction of Chang'an City.

Guan Yu and the others left suddenly, which made the exhausted Qiang City guard Pang De a little confused.
