"Knock knock!"

"Woooooo

The sonorous and low war drums struck in people's hearts, and the desolate and distant horns fell back in all directions of heaven and earth.

The two armies are fighting to the death.

Shouts, screams, and the sound of weapons mingled together, and blood trickled down the walls, making small pits filled with red liquid in the recesses of the dry moat. Outside the moat, there are the bodies of fallen soldiers everywhere, some arrows are stuck in people or on the ground, and the cold wind blows a broken military flag, and under the city of Ningling, it is like a hell on earth.

Cao Cao saw through that Yuan Shu was unable to continue to fulfill the conditions of camp warfare, so he changed the policy of confrontation and stability in the early stage, and suddenly attacked with force. The siege in the early stage gave the Yanzhou army enough time to prepare for the siege, they made and stockpiled a large number of siege equipment, and gave the order to attack, and the army of Cao Cao's camp carried a ladder to push the city wood, and attacked Ningling City from all directions.

It is the player's troops that play in the front.

Players who join a faction war are rewarded for completing missions or killing enemies, and if they fail to complete the mission, the player's sacrifice will be worthless, and the faction leader will not be liable for the death pension. Adventure players with relatively weak strength are difficult to have a good performance in this level of war, so most of the player troops besieging the city now are lords; On the city wall, Yuan Shu's army was already in full array.

The defenders were of a higher level, well-equipped, and had the advantage of defending the city, and had a clear advantage in dealing with the soldiers of Cao Cao's camp who climbed the city wall. Groups of Cao Cao's lords tried to make a breakthrough on the city walls, but their efforts did not have the desired effect, and were only exchanged for merciless killing.

The archers were condescending, and a canopy of iron arrows flew out, playing the music of death in the dense crowd.

An hour passed, and the Chinese army where Cao Ying's soldiers were located could already faint the bloody aura coming from the front, and the player troops paid heavy casualties, but the damage to the defenders was minimal. Cao Ren's brows furrowed. After following Cao Cao, he had experienced a hundred battles and had long been accustomed to seeing life and death, but now he was still a little sad to see such huge losses on the front line.

He asked Cao Cao for battle: "Let's go up, those lords' troops are useless, and they will only increase casualties." ”

War is not child's play, and sacrifice is inevitable. But Cao Ren believes that the sacrifice should at least be worthwhile.

Cao Cao didn't agree, and said indifferently: "We still have a lot of lord armies available. ”

Cao Ren had fully understood Cao Cao's intentions and said more.

Ci is not in charge of the army, this is a truth that the commander must understand, not to mention that it is not his own army that is dying now. Player forces join the faction war for the reward, and take the money to do things. It's like a business, so now Cao Cao sent them to death in the siege battle, and there would be no psychological burden at all. Moreover, no matter how bad the lord's army is, it can achieve some results somewhat, even if it can't kill a single person. At the very least, it can also consume the defenders' supplies and bodies.

Two hours passed.

The lord troops of Cao Cao's camp suffered nearly half of the battle losses, and Yuan Shu's Nanyang army should have suffered more than 1,000 casualties. Under the continuous attack of Cao Cao's camp, the front-line troops on the city wall have been extremely depleted, and they have been replaced twice so far, and the high-intensity battle has made them sweat like pulp, their arms are sore, and many of them are close to the limit of their physical fitness, if the siege battle can be stopped at this time. I'm afraid most people will ignore the blood and corpses on the walls and collapse on the battlefield.

In the past half an hour, Yuan Shujun's casualties have accelerated significantly!

Cao Cao, who had been watching the battle situation, was well aware of the changes in the battle situation, and at this time he was completely sure that Yuan Shu was no longer able to hire players to help in the battle, otherwise there would never be cannon fodder. Let the elite soldiers of the headquarters die in vain.

Cao Cao still had no intention of stopping the attack.

Forced to deal with Yuan Shu's desperate gamble with camp warfare, Cao Cao paid a heavy economic price, but it was not without benefits, the most obvious benefit was that the casualty rate of Yanzhou soldiers was greatly reduced. Cao Cao didn't know why he joined the player forces in his faction. Several times more than those who joined Yuan Shu, but one thing Cao Cao knew very well was that he had very, very many mercenaries.

It was difficult for the lord's army to kill Yuan Shu's army in siege battles, and if he couldn't kill anyone, Cao Cao didn't need to pay him.

This also means that, in fact, most of these mercenaries participate in the war for free!

With so many free resources, Cao Cao will certainly make good use of every penny of their value.

Four hours passed.

As the sun set, less than thirty percent of the player troops in Cao Cao's camp remained.

Just when Yuan Shu thought that Cao Cao was about to withdraw his troops, Cao Cao replaced the siege troops with his own lineage, Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Dun, Li Dian, and Le Jin each led the main force of the three thousand Yanzhou army, mixed in the lord's troops and infiltrated the city, and after hearing the sound of the Chinese army's drums, they suddenly attacked from four directions!

The exhausted Nanyang army at the head of the city was caught off guard, and suddenly fell into great bad luck, and was beaten bitterly by the Chongzhou army, with heavy casualties. With a large number of defenders killed in a very short period of time, the defensive force was even weaker, and in less than half a pillar of incense, Xiahou Yuan's Dongcheng took the lead in making a breakthrough, more than a dozen Yanzhou soldiers occupied three battlements, and more soldiers were flying up the geographical ladder!

At the critical juncture, Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling led the fresh army to arrive, and Ji Ling took the lead and forcibly broke into the Yanzhou Army Battle Group, which not only disrupted the defensive formation of these Yanzhou Army, but also took advantage of the situation to hold a battlement, so that the follow-up force investment of the besieging side was greatly reduced. Three minutes later, Xiahou Yuan, who was rushing here to prepare to enter the city in person, saw that the last Yanzhou army in the city was slashed to the ground with a knife, and the gap that he had finally occupied was blocked by Yuan Shujun!

Of course, Xiahoudun, Li Dian and Le Jin also attacked with all their might, but while Ji Ling saved the east wall, Yuan Shujun's generals Zhang Xun, Le Zhuo, Li Feng and other generals did not dare to be idle, and they all went to the city to fight. The two armies fought hard for half an hour, and the Yanzhou army finally failed to break through the city wall guarded by the Nanyang army.

Cao Cao invested the main force at the last moment, so that the Nanyang army suffered a lot of losses, and it was considered to see the opportunity to get some cheap, and if it continued to fight, the losses would be great. Cao Cao accepted it when he saw it, and Mingjin withdrew his troops.

Perhaps because of the loss of a large number of lord troops in today's siege battle, the advantage in strength was not as good as before, and after the siege battle, Cao Cao's camp quickly made adjustments. The troops stationed outside the east and south gates of Ningling were transferred away, and only the west and north sides maintained pressure on Ningling.

On the third watch that night, Yuan Shu, who had no intention of fighting, quietly led the remnants of 8,000 to withdraw from Ningling.

However, the east gate and the south gate can be walked, and to the south is Liu Biao's territory, with Yuan Shu's current situation, it is undoubtedly to find death to run to grab land with Liu Biao. Therefore, in the end, Yuan Shu still made the same choice as in history, went out of the east gate of Ningling, prepared to go to Yangzhou to avoid the limelight, first find a place to live, and then try to make a comeback.

It's a pity that Yuan Shu's reaction was all expected by Cao Cao.

Continued onslaught during the day. After the truce, the net was opened on both sides, all in order to let Yuan Shu abandon the city and break through.

Yuan Shu walked on the front foot, and Cao Cao entered the city on the back foot.

Less than five miles out of the city, Yuan Shu fell into Cao Cao's ambush.

Letting go of Yuan Shu's front team, Cao Hong and Cao Ren each led a biao of soldiers and horses to kill from both sides, holding more torches. The sound of killing shook the sky. In the dark, Yuan Shu didn't know how many enemies he was ambushed by, and he didn't dare to fight, and the front team was not attacked, so Yuan Shu was eager to try his best to get out of the encirclement. The coach has lost his sense of proportion, and the soldiers under his command seem to have lost their backbone, and the formation is chaotic. In a panic, he only cares about running for his life.

This cheapened Cao Hong and Cao Ren, and led their troops to rush and kill, almost never encountering resistance from the formation!

Before Yuan Shu could take a breath, Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan joined forces to kill again, attacking halfway.

Yuan Shu was even more panicked, and hurriedly ordered Zhang Xun and Le to lead their troops and horses to resist, while he continued to flee with a large army.

Although Zhang Xun and Le are also quite martial, they are the opponents of the Xiahou brothers. I was worried that Cao Ren and Cao Hongfu would lead the troops to kill, and they had no intention of fighting, and they were killed left and right, and after more than ten years, Le was beheaded by Xiahou Dun. Zhang Xun was even more panicked, shook a shot, turned around and ran into the trail. Nowhere to be found.

The sacrifices of Zhang Xun and Le Yu did not buy Yuan Shu much time.

Le Jin and Li Dian robbed and killed halfway again!

After repeated ambushes, Yuan Shu was so frightened that his face was colorless, and he lay on his horse at a loss. Fortunately, Li Feng and Lei Bo stepped forward. They each led their troops to meet the battle, and before leaving, they said to Ji Ling: "Take the lord away!" ”

The situation was urgent, and Ji Ling did not dare to slack off, and led his troops to protect Yuan Shu and Yan Xiang to continue to escape.

ran out of more than ten miles in one breath, and there was no Yanzhou army to intercept and kill, and the scattered Nanyang army in the rear 6 continued to come to converge, and Yuan Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Counting the daytime siege battle, the Nanyang army had little to rest for a day and a night, and now they are all tired, and they happen to encounter a river blocking the road in front, so Yuan Shu asked everyone to rest by the river, while gathering the stragglers, while sending people to explore the way upstream and downstream, to see if they can find a bridge, or cross the river in a shallow place.

After a night of scuffle, most of the Nanyang soldiers were scattered, and the 8,000 people who went out of the city were only more than 2,000 at this time!

There was a faint sound of chickens crowing in the countryside, and the sky was about to dawn.

Yuan Shu felt a sense of relief, and it seemed that he had finally passed this hurdle. Although he lost his troops and was forced to withdraw from Jingzhou, with his existing strength, Yangzhou could go to find a decent piece of territory, and with Yuan Shu's family background and prestige, he recruited troops and talents, and a comeback was just around the corner.

But he was still too happy.

The sky is getting brighter, and the vision is getting farther and farther away.

The resting Nanyang soldiers suddenly appeared, they had been surrounded!

In the upper and lower directions of the river, there are hoplites waiting for each side; The way the Nanyang Army came, thousands of big yellow crossbows are shocking; Behind is the river, the Nanyang army gathered by the river, but there is no way out, even if someone is watery, being pointed at by thousands of rhubarb crossbows, jumping into the river is also nine deaths.

Yuan Shu's lips were blue: "Cao thief is treacherous!" I'm dying! ”

Ji Ling's face was also pale: "It's not the Yanzhou Army, it should be the Fengxiang Army......"

Yuan Shuleng paused, and suddenly screamed: "This is impossible!" Zheng Aniu wants to conquer Wa Island, and there is an edict from the Son of Heaven that a few days ago, all his sailors have been released, all! A lot of Inhumans have confirmed this! ”

Yan Xiang was thoughtful.

Ji Ling said with difficulty: "I recognize that flag." ”

Under the banner of the phoenix, a Fang Shi player slowly walked out.

Yuan Shu said angrily: "Zheng Aniu, why are you my enemy? ”

Ah Niu smiled: "Today is just a peach in return." ”

Yuan Shu's eyes froze for a moment, and he immediately remembered that he had sent Ji Ling to attack Luoyang twice, but they were all undeclared.

Now in a desperate situation, Yuan Shu was unwilling to sit still, and lowered his posture and said: "You and I have no grudges, and we have offended before, but we were deceived by traitors, and Shu often blames myself for this." is also Hanchen, and I hope that Ah Niu will be convenient, and there will be a follow-up!
