Chapter 877: Truth is Reality

“…… Roar! Roar! Roar! ”

“……”

Xiahoudun's fierce actions seemed to reactivate the morale of Cao Cao's troops in Xiangxian County, and a deep roar came from near and far, and finally it seemed that the entire city was about to boil.

"Put!"

Yang Rui waved his hand again, commanding a large area of siege equipment such as heavy trebuchets, large national collapses, and small catapults behind him to start a long-range attack again.

Previously, Xiahoudun invited Huang Zhong to fight again, and Yang Rui blocked the continuation of the heads-up with practical actions, but in fact, it was because after Xiahoudun pulled out his eyes, a system announcement was released, and there was a situation that Yang Rui did not expect.

"System Announcement: Xiahou Xuan's behavior of pulling out the arrow triggers the hidden setting, completes the fateful plot, Xiahou Xuan's state is fully restored, and his personal strength is improved......"

The system actually has a small hole in the matter of Xiahou pulling out his eyes!

The arrow given by Huang Zhong to Xiahoudun was a great favor to him in the final analysis, enabling Xiahoudun to complete the fateful plot, not only helping him fully recover his state, but also improving Xiahoudun's strength, which Yang Rui and everyone present did not expect at all.

It's no wonder that Xiahoudun will continue to shout on the city wall, and he will continue to fight Huang Zhong alone.

It's not that Xiahoudun's strength will definitely surpass Huang Zhong, you must know that there is still a big gap between him and Huang Zhong before, but at this time, Xiahoudun's state is at its peak, and the momentum driven by the Pulling Arrow Eye-Piercing incident is also sharp, Yang Rui doesn't want Huang Zhong to fight again in this situation.

Thinking about it, through the improvement brought by the stimulation of pulling arrows, Xiahoudun's strength should have been greatly reduced to Huang Zhong's strength. The result of the re-fight between the two is really not so certain.

Again. The morale of Cao Cao's soldiers guarding the city in Xiangxian County was also deformedly mobilized. Yang Rui happened to attack through a large number of siege equipment, and then came to cool down Cao Cao's subordinates.

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak ......"

"Boom! Rumble! Boom ......"

"Bang! Boom! Bang ......"

"Boom la la ......"

“……”

As boulders, solid bullets and other objects smashed into the city head again, the guards at the east city gate and the nearby city wall were once again pressed and couldn't raise their heads, and Xiahoudun and other generals on the east city gate also shrank their heads and hid.

The morale of Cao Cao's troops in Xiangxian County, who had just recovered, was rapidly lowered again, and it continued to last for about a stick of incense, and the entire county town of Xiangxian County, including the other three city gates, fell silent, and the morale of the troops who had just boiled up also eased again.

At this time, the east gate of Xiangxian County and the nearby city wall had almost been cut by half of its height, so Yang Rui ordered to suspend the weapon attack. And under the noses of Cao Cao's subordinates, he began to transfer siege equipment, preparing to attack several other gates.

The remaining half of the city wall at the east city gate is actually unable to effectively defend at this time, not to mention how much Cao Cao's troops lost in the siege of the city, the city gate tower and the city wall that have been cut off are already rugged everywhere, and it is difficult for the defenders to stand on it.

The function of the half-pulled city wall is almost the same as that of the fence of the village-level territory, and it can only block the footsteps of the besieging party, but it cannot give full play to the geographical advantages of defending the city.

At this time, if Yang Rui attacks the section of the city wall, all kinds of ladders, rushing cars, hitting wood, and wooden ladders will be on the same page, and it should not be difficult to achieve a breakthrough.

That's it. The offensive and defensive sides are still fist-to-flesh confrontations, which is not the best way for Yang Rui, who has already taken the initiative. Yang Rui was not ready to forcibly attack the city until he had to, after all, the price to be paid by the besieging party was generally relatively greater!

In this time of incense, Yang Rui's mind was still on the system announcement caused by Xiahoudun before, in the historical facts and romance, Xiahoudun's loss of his left eye happened during the battle with Lu Bu, but he didn't expect that at this time in the game, Yang Rui's side was changed to help him complete his fate.

However, if you calculate the time, it almost coincides with the current game stage, which is also when Cao Cao conquered Xuzhou, and even the year is the same.

What Yang Rui cares about is not the plot itself, but the stubborn "return" behavior of the game system.

Once upon a time, it was precisely because of the system setting that Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao, who had been rescued by Yang Rui and established their power, were directly crushed by the rolling wheels set by the system when Yang Rui was temporarily away, and finally died fatefully.

The current event is also a fatalistic event, in fact, it also reflects the stubbornness of the system's setting.

In the beginning, Yang Rui has always used and maintained the inherent setting, and as a player who is familiar with history and various materials, he can certainly use this inherent setting to develop and strengthen himself.

It wasn't until Ding Yuan and Qiao Mao died that Yang Rui realized that he had become a prince himself, and he was also beyond the scope of the "inherent setting".

Yang Rui has to admit that there is indeed this possibility!

At this point, it can be seen from the NPC plot launched in the Three Kingdoms Civilization Region - Choosing Trees and Perching, the historical celebrities/historical generals who were "assigned" to Yang Rui by the system at the beginning are very few, but at the last moment they comfortingly "distributed" Guan Hai to Yang Rui.

Although Guan Hai's strength is also very good, compared to the number of historical generals/historical celebrities who have taken refuge in the past in large numbers of other princes, Yang Rui has gained much less.

In the previous battle with Cao Cao and Lu Bu, Yang Rui was much inferior to the two sides in terms of the number of generals, and the problem of lack of generals and commanders obviously broke out, otherwise the final battle situation may be very different.

It can be said that Yang Rui is currently in urgent need of manpower at the level of historical generals/historical celebrities, which is also the reason why he did not immediately launch a full-scale attack after he surrounded the county seat of Xiangxian County, Yang Ruixin has the idea of effectively weakening Cao Cao while being able to capture one or two generals, even if this probability is not high.

"Withdraw all the troops on one side of the west city gate, and the other three sides will not attack, and the siege equipment will attack from outside the south city gate, and then move to the north gate to continue ......the attack," Yang Rui ordered.

On the way to Xiangxian County, Yang Rui had already discussed with Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei, Zhang Ning, Han Dai, Ding Yao, Huang Wudie, etc.

It can be said that this strategy is not unusual, but Yang Rui knows that Cao Cao is resourceful, so he does not intend to deceive Cao Cao much in terms of strategy, so he simply does it and directly exposes his intentions.

In the case that Yang Rui has a large number of powerful siege equipment, and Xiangxian is only the county seat, it seems that there are not many options left for Cao Cao. (To be continued.) )
