With the army that broke through the encirclement, it soon arrived near Cao Cao's army. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Cao Cao obviously knew the situation on the Changshe side, and the army that had already been drawn out stopped temporarily, and he himself, with a group of generals under his command, came to greet Xuanyuan Che and Huangfu Song.

The two sides met and exchanged a few words of greeting, Cao Cao said to Xuanyuan: "Since General Xuanyuan has been prepared, why didn't he tell me, causing our army to almost start overnight." ”

"General Cao, you have wronged me by saying this, I also went to see General Huangfu, and saw that the defenders in the city were really unable to resist, so I let my subordinates take the risk to meet them to break through, otherwise, how could I easily give up Changshe City."

Of course, Xuanyuan Che would not admit it, and hurriedly refuted.

"General Cao, what General Xuanyuan said is true, it is really that most of the soldiers of our army have been harmed by the poison of the other party, and they are unable to fight again, so they can only ask General Xuanyuan to take over and break through."

Huangfu Song also helped Xuanyuan Che explain, after all, the next counteroffensive battle still needs the help of these two people, so it is naturally not good for them to have any contradictions.

"General Huangfu misunderstood, is just a joke with General Xuanyuan." Cao Cao hurriedly smiled, and Xuanyuan Che also nodded, signaling to Huangfu Song that this was indeed the case.

Only then did Huang Fu Song know that the relationship between the two was good, otherwise he would not joke about this kind of thing, so he smiled and didn't say anything more.

Cao Cao instructed his generals to arrange for this group of soldiers who had just experienced the great battle, so that they could rest more and prepare for a counterattack later.

Afterwards, the three of them went to Cao Cao's big tent together, sat together, and discussed the future battle.

"In this big battle, the soldiers under him are already a little tired, and if they want to launch a counterattack, they must at least eight or nine o'clock, otherwise they will affect their combat effectiveness." Xuanyuan Che was the first to say.

Cao Cao and Huangfu Song nodded when they heard this, they both agreed, and Cao Cao said: "Since this is the case, then set off at ten o'clock, this counterattack, there is no possibility of a sneak attack, therefore, we must be ready for a strong attack." ”

"Although this battle can't be sneak attacked, but Changshe City has experienced a big battle before, and some of the defensive equipment on the city wall has been consumed a lot, and before I came out, I also ordered the soldiers to destroy the north gate and the east gate of the city, I hope that the Yellow Turban Thieves have not completely blocked these two gates by then, so that we can also be a lot easier."

"There is not much hope for this, although Bocai is a civilian, his military talent is still good, otherwise there would be no today."

"What General Cao said is reasonable, but we must succeed in this counterattack, otherwise the court will blame it, and we can't afford to bear it." Xuanyuan said.

"General Xuanyuan, I see that you put away General Zhu Jun out of thin air before, and you have the martial arts of shuttling through space, I wonder if the general can lead the army into the Changshe and assist our army in opening the city gate and attacking the city?"

Huangfu Song looked at Xuanyuan Che with a look of anticipation, if there is hope for this matter, then the success rate of the siege will be much greater.

Xuanyuan Che was about to speak, when a guard's voice sounded outside the tent: "Lord, there is news from the scouts in front that there are many yellow turban thieves around our army who have come to inquire about our army's military situation, although many have been killed by our army, many have escaped back, and I ask the lord to decide." ”

"I know, you inform General Xiahou about this, and he will send troops to clean up the surrounding Yellow Turban thieves."

"Yes." Immediately, the guards outside the tent departed.

"General Xuanyuan, I don't know what General Huangfu said just now, can you do it?" Cao Cao asked again, picking up the question that had been interrupted earlier.

"Yes, but I don't have much room to collect people, and I can only put down 10,000 soldiers, so if you want to succeed in one fell swoop, you must first wait for the army to approach the city gate." Xuanyuan Che said with certainty, but he didn't tell the truth about the actual situation, after all, this kind of thing can't be told to outsiders casually. As for whether they believe it or not, he doesn't know and doesn't want to know, anyway, he himself believes.

Then he said: "Although the Yellow Turban Thieves have suffered a lot of casualties after this battle, they must still have seven or eight million combat power, and it is impossible for these troops to enter Changshe City, and if we want to recapture Changshe City, we must first defeat those Yellow Turban Thieves stationed outside the city, so that we can attack the city with peace of mind." ”

"This matter is simple, when the time comes, my tiger and leopard riders and the golden eagle guards under your command will attack together, I believe that the army outside the city will soon be able to disrupt the chaos, and then the army will attack, I believe it will be solved soon, and when you open the city gate, then everything will be done."

"I also have an elite cavalry army of 100,000 under my command, and I can charge with the cavalry under the command of the two generals at that time." Huangfu Song also said.

"Okay, that's it, then I'll go back and make arrangements for each of us, so that we can wait for the big battle later." Xuanyuan Che stood up, said goodbye to the two and left, and Huangfu Song also left immediately, only Cao Cao was still in the tent, looking at the direction of Xuanyuan Che's departure, his face was solemn.

Dawn came immediately, and at eight o'clock, the army lit a cooking smoke, prepared food for the soldiers, replenished their physical strength, and ensured that the soldiers had sufficient physical strength in the next big battle.

Soon, the departure time at ten o'clock arrived, because of the preparation of the reminder, the army set off on time, and among them, Xuanyuan Che's Golden Eagle Divine Guard, Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and the 100,000 elite cavalry under the command of Huangfu Song also gathered together and set off together.

Among them, in addition to the 10,000 Golden Eagle Divine Guards who were included in the Qiankun Ring, the other 50,000 Golden Eagle Divine Guards who came over this time were all incorporated into this patchwork cavalry army.

Originally, Xuanyuan Che planned to leave a 5,000 divine guard for Yang Yun to guard, but Yang Yun refused, and incorporated them all into this cavalry army, and at the same time asked Xuanyuan Che to bring the 30,000 Chu troops brought out from the copy as well, but in the end, only 25,000 Chu troops were brought in the Qiankun Ring, and the remaining 5,000 were left to protect Yang Yun. Then he collected 50,000 pikemen in the Qiankun Ring, so as not to appear outside.

And Cao Cao's special troops, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, have as many as 200,000, and all of them have reached the eighth-order strength, which can be described as an extremely powerful combat force.

And Huangfu Song's 100,000 elite knights are actually just ordinary seventh-order cavalry, although their riding skills are excellent, but after all, they can't compare to Xuanyuan Che's Golden Eagle Divine Guard and Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, but for the Yellow Turban Thief, it is also an extremely powerful combat force.

350,000 cavalry were the vanguard, followed by a total of 4 million troops, followed by the rear, heading west, in the direction of Changshe.

This time, they chose to attack the east side of Changshe City, and according to the intelligence of the scouts, the Yellow Turban Army apparently realized that the Han army's counterattack was coming, and not only sealed the destroyed city gate with boulders and earth, but also placed heavy troops under the east city gate to defend against a counterattack that could come at any time.

"I didn't expect this wave to be extremely decisive, and I actually sent six million troops to garrison outside the East City Gate, and in just a few hours, a simple fortification has been erected, and it seems that this time it can only be hard-hit." Cao Cao, who was in the Chinese army, looked at Changshe City in the distance, and said to Huangfu Song beside him with a solemn face.

"Yes, now we can only pray that General Xuanyuan and they will succeed." Huangfu Song also said.

At this time, a Xuanyuan sergeant ran over on a war horse, saw the two, and hurriedly dismounted and reported: "Qiyu two generals, my lord has ordered that the forward cavalry soldiers are divided into two roads, all the way to the south, there are 100,000 tiger and leopard cavalry and 100,000 elite cavalry, which are in charge of General Xiahoudun, and all the way to the north, there are 50,000 Golden Eagle Divine Guards and the remaining 100,000 tiger and leopard cavalry, which are in charge of General Zheng Qianjun of our department. At the same time, the lord hoped that the army would launch an attack on the Yellow Turban Thieves as soon as possible, contain the attention of the Yellow Turban Thieves, and create a better opportunity for the two cavalry armies to attack from the two flanks of the Yellow Turban Army. ”

"In that case, then order the army to attack the Yellow Turban Thieves immediately and cover the cavalry attack." After Cao Cao heard this, he immediately cooperated with Xuanyuan Che and ordered an attack.

The order quickly spread throughout the ranks, and immediately, the normally marching army suddenly began to run, led by sword and shield soldiers, and launched a charge against the defenders.

Just a hundred meters away, countless arrows flew out of the Yellow Turban Thieves' camp and covered the Han army below.

Dense with arrows, even though the sword and shield soldiers had already raised their shields, there were still many soldiers who died under the arrows, or fell to the ground wounded, groaning in pain, and only by waiting for the war to end could they be healed.

After such five waves of arrow rain, the sword and shield soldiers at the forefront of the Han army finally rushed to the front of the fortifications, but what was waiting for them was not the buildings that could be easily destroyed, but the spears and spears that were suddenly poked out of the fortifications.

The Han army, which had learned a lesson, also knew how to counterattack, and many Han soldiers held shields in both hands, hit the holes in the fortifications, and blocked them, and the rear crashing wood was quickly sent up and began to destroy these simple wooden fortifications.

Seeing that the wooden wall used for defense was about to be knocked down, the whole wall actually ignited a fire, and the fire started very suddenly, extremely fast, and the entire wall was burned in an instant, and many Han soldiers who had no time to retreat were ignited by the flames and burned alive.

At the same time that the Han army was blocked by the flame defense line, the arrow rain of the Yellow Turban thieves behind the defense line did not stop at all, and after a while, nearly 100,000 Han soldiers died, until the Han army withdrew from the attack range of the arrows, and this dense arrow rain did not stop.

Looking at the flame defense line blocking the advance of the Han army in front of him, Cao Cao's face was unusually ugly, and he roared angrily at the generals around him: "What's going on!" Say, how did this fire start? ”

"Lord, we don't know."

"Lord, it must be the Yellow Turban Thief who cast a demon spell, otherwise it is impossible to burn this wooden wall to this extent at once."

"Yes, lord, this must be a demon law."

…… Cao Cao's generals discussed a lot, and finally blamed the matter on the demon law of the Yellow Turban thief, after all, as they said, it is a strange thing to suddenly make the wooden wall burst into flames, and it must be a demon law.

"General Cao, what they said is right, this is the Yellow Turban Thief's demon magic." In the end, Huangfu Song also said, and, listening to his tone, it was obviously well-founded.

When Cao Cao heard this, he turned his head to look at Huangfu Song.
