After resting for a while, the Yellow Turban Bandit Army made a comeback and sent those Yellow Turban Bandit Army who had never fought to attack the city, as if they did not intend to give Zhending City the slightest respite;
For three days in a row, the army was sent to rush to the city every day, three times a day, not giving the defenders on the city wall the slightest chance to rest, and under the persistence of Yan Liang and others, they finally withstood the impact of the Yellow Turban Bandit Army.
In the past three days, the Yellow Turban Thief Army has also suffered a lot of losses, with more than 50,000 soldiers under Zhangba's command and more than 40,000 killed under Zuo Mustache;
On the fourth day, Zhangba also sent 30,000 "immortal" Yellow Turban thieves, because Chu Han sent Shura Wei, and failed to wreak havoc outside the East City Gate;
As a result, after five days of fighting, more than half of the officers and men under Zuo Mustache were killed, including 5,000 men and horses on the first day, 30,000 or 40,000 horses killed and wounded in the chaos of the night attack, 30,000 horses and horses injured by the "immortal" Yellow Turban Army, and more than 40,000 men and horses killed in three consecutive days.
Although the loss of Zhangba was a little less than that of Zhizuo, it was almost 90,000 horses killed, so Chu Han was basically about the same as the mission;
The player also had 30,000 horses killed, and now the total strength of the player is only more than 50,000 people, including 10,000 horses at the east and west city gates, plus 2,000 horses under Wang Jun and Wu Sheng, and there are almost 12,000 horses in general;
As for the North City Gate, it is a little less, the player still has 15,000 people, plus Chu Han has been stationed by Tai Shici just in case, with a strength of about 5,000;
Because the players were scattered in formation, they did not cooperate with the formation, and only 35,000 of the 125,000 men and horses were left in the end, and almost sixty percent of them were killed, which can be described as a heavy loss;
And Chu Han's army also suffered heavy losses, after all, they were only recruits with limited combat effectiveness, and of course, there were many recruits who had undergone the baptism of war and transformed into elite soldiers on the battlefield;
After the first battle, in addition to Tai Shici, Wang Jun and Wu Sheng's subordinates, there were 2,000 Shurawei men and horses, and more than 20,000 ordinary troops.
On the fifth day, Zuo sent 40,000 horses, divided into four teams, desperately taking turns to storm the south city gate, with a desperate posture;
At the same time, Zhangba also left 10,000 horses outside the east and west city gates, and the main force of 30,000 horses moved to the north city gate.
"Zizhen, you see that this left mustache is not crazy, and he is so crazy to hit the south city gate..."
Chu Han was also quite surprised by this, this left mustache was too impulsive, the "immortal" Yellow Turban Army with strong combat effectiveness before couldn't help them, and now it was so late to attack the city wall;
"Hehe, lord, this Zuo Beard is not a fool, he has two possibilities for doing this, one is that he thinks that our army has suffered heavy losses, and wants to break through the south gate in one fell swoop, which is a temptation;
There is also a possibility to cover people's eyes and ears and use a powerful offensive to draw the attention of our army to the south city gate, so as to carry out the plan of repairing the plank road in the dark and Chencang, but it is really difficult to predict how it is..."
Jing Xiang disagreed, as a wise man, he could figure out other people's minds from any detail, and this left mustache naturally couldn't escape his eyes;
When Chu Han heard this, he looked thoughtful, and said in surprise: "Well, this left mustache didn't get any benefits in the hands of our army, so he must be unwilling, but what does this left mustache want to do?" ”
Jing Xiang looked at the camp of the Yellow Turban Thief Army outside the gate of the South City, and said slowly: "The so-called upper army is plotting, the second is the attack, and the last is attacking the city, since the strong attack can't take the real city, then you can only use other methods, I think it should be to pay attention to Longyuan Valley..."
"Hit the attention to Longyuan Valley? It seems that I am going to use the strategy of encircling the point to send reinforcements, this left mustache still looks a little brainy, but fortunately, our army is also prepared, so I will send a message to Zilong..."
When Chu Han heard this, he naturally understood Zuo Yan's plan, frowned, and then stretched out, intending to send a message to Zhao Yun and let Zhao Yun lead the army to attack the rear of the Yellow Turban Thief Army.
"No, since they plan to encircle the point and send reinforcements, then our army will use the strategy of desperation, burn its grain and grass, and the Yellow Turban Thief Army will be in turmoil, and our army will have a chance to win..."
Jing Xiang waved his hand when he heard this, although it is a good strategy to use Zhao Yun to lead the army to attack the rear of the enemy, but it is far from shaking the foundation of the enemy's army, and now that the two armies are in a stalemate, burning grain and grass can best hit the enemy's military heart.
"Once the grain and grass are roasted, what should I do if the Yellow Turban Thief Army Dog jumps over the wall?"
Chu Han also knew that burning grain and grass was a good way, but when the Yellow Turban thieves saw that the grain and grass were burned, they would definitely jump over the wall in a hurry and make a last stand.
"Report, inform the city lord, General Taishi has sent news that Zhangba is leading the main force to attack the north city gate..."
At this moment, Chu Han Jingxiang heard the words of the messenger sent by Tai Shici, and glanced at each other, looking as expected.
"How many Yellow Turban Troops are there outside the gates of the East, West and North Cities?"
"Back to the city lord, there are 10,000 horses outside the east and west city gates, and 30,000 horses outside the north city gate!"
"Very good, let's go down first..."
"Lord, it seems that this Zuo Mustache and Zhangba are finally no longer fighting separately, and each has sent 50,000 horses to attack Longyuan Valley, so it seems that this battle depends on who can seize the opportunity..."
"The 100,000 troops of the Yellow Turban Thief Army have turned to attack Longyuan Valley, it seems that they are not going to surround the point and send reinforcements, but to cut off our army's back road..."
After figuring out the movement of the Yellow Turban Thief Army, everything became clear, and now Chu Han's face finally changed.
"The lord doesn't need to worry, with the two generals Xue Ba and Sun Yang, plus General Zhao Yun on the side, Longyuan Valley can't be lost in a short period of time..."
Jing Xiang did not change color, but really determined a lot, and seemed to be in his chest.
"Zizhen, then let Zhao Yun lead the army to burn the grain and grass of the Yellow Turban Thief Army?"
Now that the Yellow Turban Bandits' plan has changed, their strategy has naturally changed.
"It was a mistake in judgment before, it is useless to burn grain and grass, if my prediction is correct, there will be a drastic change in the city tonight, and the Yellow Turban thief army will also attack the north and south gates with all their strength tonight;
Especially the North City Gate, but maybe the enemy will use a method to hide people's eyes and ears, and the East and West City Gates cannot be relaxed in the slightest, and at the same time, let General Zhao Yun pay attention to the movement of the Yellow Turban Bandit Army..."
Now it's time to battle the enemy's wits and courage, so if you miss the pool, you will be doomed.
Subsequently, Chu Han immediately secretly summoned Zhao Yun and asked Zhao Yun to secretly investigate the movements of the 100,000 Yellow Turban Thief Army.
At the same time, the 100,000 Yellow Turban thieves who went to attack Longyuan Valley actually divided their troops again, and the men and horses along the way seemed to use special magic techniques, and they actually added 50,000 horses out of thin air;
If you look closely, you will find that these 50,000 horses are just phantoms, but Zhao Yun, who went to monitor the movements of the Yellow Turban Thief Army, did not find any tricks in it;
At the same time, more than 100 miles away from Zhending City, there was a Han army, this Han army was a reinforcement from Yuanshi City, the number of almost more than 30,000 people, was leading the army to Zhending City.
The curtain of darkness has finally fallen, and the direction of this battle is finally about to appear.
In the darkness, Chu Han and Jing Xiang stood side by side, looking at the darkness outside the city, silently, as if waiting for the arrival of the storm...
