Thank you 'plumpine', 'mhtm11' speechless__' great generous reward, thank you to all the friends who sent their blessings, thank you!!
Outside the Xiping Fortress, Guan Yu and Guan Ping, father and son, were facing the open fortress gate, and a group of heavy infantry was arraying outside the gate, and then slowly advanced towards the ramp to the south.
The width of the ramp is not large, the frontal battle line is shorter, Cao Hong is out of the formation to attack outward, in fact, it is not a good idea, but if he does not attack, it will be difficult for Xu Chu to break through Guan Yu, who occupies a favorable terrain, if Guan Yu defeats Xu Chu, and then turns back and attacks Xiping, this result is definitely unacceptable.
Of course, Li Feng suggested that Cao Hong should defend the fortress, Xu Chu did not have to rush to attack, Guan Yu was caught in the middle and could not advance or retreat, he should take this opportunity to recover Ruyang first, and then wait until Guan Yu ran out of ammunition and food, or attack or pursue when Guan Yu retreated, it is better than a strong battle at any cost now.
However, Cao Hong and Xu Chu both rejected this suggestion, and Xu Chu did not know why, but Cao Hong was because Cao Jun had no reason to be cowardly, and in order to maintain Cao Jun's fine tradition of daring to fight, Cao Hong refused to defend it.
However, after the battle, Cao Hong found that the battle situation was as Li Feng expected, although he occupied a condescending position, and he could also set up heavy crossbow positions on the slopes on both sides, but in the face of Guan Yu under the slope, he actually presented a one-sided situation, not to his own side, but to Guan Yu's side, Guan Yu and Guan Ping were like two killing gods, waving the sharp blade in their hands, setting off a bloody storm in the crowd. From time to time, you can see a large number of stumps and broken arms, broken shields and remnants flying up, and from time to time you can see the explosion of booming skills, due to the dense formation, Cao Hong's troops suffered heavy casualties.
And Guan Yu took advantage of the stalemate with the other party, and actually turned to the slope to assault, and after a while, Guan Yu's army with high morale had already killed on the slope. frantically shouted and killed in the direction of Cao Hongshuaiqi.
At this time, Cao Hong came to his senses, Guan Yu's reputation as a top military general is definitely not a fraud, Cao Hong's own troops are really not a little worse than Guan Yu, guarding the fortress or being able to fight, and they can't fight at all in the battle!
Let's look at Guan Yu's posture. This is clearly to play the decapitation tactic, Cao Hong commanded the heavy crossbow to shoot fire, but the effect was not good, because his troops were entangled with Guan Yu's army, and even his own people were shot together when shooting, and what was even more disgusting was that his own people were facing away from this arrow. The casualties turned out to be greater than those of the other side.
Cao Hong was stunned, this battle couldn't be fought, he knew that he would listen to Li Feng, and it would be good to trap Guan Yu first.
"Retreat, retreat in echelons, let the defenders of the city prepare to suppress, trebuchets to prepare, with fireballs and oil 1
"No1
'Dangdang'
A crisp sound sounded. Cao Hong's troops retreated in an orderly manner like flowing water, and the troops that had been entangled continued to fight with Guan Yu's army, and there was no retreat, and the generals behind the straight road shouted, and everyone worked together to retreat from the enemy in front of them and retreat backwards.
Guan Yu was about to lead someone to pursue. A dense rain of arrows fell from the sky, and then there was a thud, and oil canisters and fireballs rose from the fortress, Guan Yu gritted his teeth. "Retreat 1."
failed to kill Cao Hong in one fell swoop, so that Cao Hong ran back again, Guan Yu was very depressed, but now is not the time to continue to be depressed, Pang Yuan is still dead in front of Xu Chu at the foot of the mountain, if he doesn't go to the rescue, Pang Yuan's troops may collapse at any time!
"Retreat, retreat, turn your head backwards1
When Guan Yu rushed down the mountain first, Pang Yuan's defense line was already precarious, Guan Yu's reinforcements arrived at the right time, and Xu Chu, who had already received the news, was also unwilling to retreat.
Guan Yu chased and killed for a while, and provoked Xu Chu, but Xu Chu was not fooled, he was obviously superior, why bother to put it right with a top general like Guan Yu, if he accidentally missed, it would be a good situation
Guan Yu didn't dare to chase too far, once his cavalry was surrounded by Xu Chu in turn, it would be terrible.
Xu Chu retreated and stationed a horse not far outside the mountain to repair, while Guan Yu gathered his troops to clean up the battlefield, and rearranged the defensive position, and rebuilt the traps and inverted horse piles destroyed by Xu Chu on the mountain road.
"Second General, I think we should withdraw."
Pang Yuan sat on the rock, slowly shaking the feather fan in his hand, Guan Yu looked at Pang Yuan's relaxed appearance, his teeth itched a little, and he couldn't wait to chop this guy with a knife, thinking that the situation was so serious, this thing was still so calm and relaxed, it was really inappropriate!
"Strategist, this is your advice?"
"Yes, this is my suggestion, now our army is suffering from the enemy, the enemy army does not attack our army, it is difficult to succeed, if the second general storms the Xiping fortress, Xu Chu will attack the back of our army again, if the second general attacks Xu Chu, our army is infantry, how to catch up with the cavalry?"
"Uh, but where can we retreat?"
"Hehe, withdraw to a place where you can evacuate, such as Dingling 1
"Dingling!? Guan Yu's face turned even redder, his eyes narrowed even more, and the murderous aura in his eyes when he looked at Pang Yuan seemed to be substantial: "Absolutely not!" I intend to continue to storm Xiping, and the military division tries to resist Xu Chu as much as possible, didn't the military division gather strangers, and ask them to harass Xu Chu on the periphery, and when I capture Xiping, everything will be decided 1
Pang Yuan smiled faintly: "Second general, the aliens can only play the role of harassment, and Xu Chu is a cavalry, and the speed is fast, the number of aliens who can participate is not much, and the time to issue the task is short, and the number of aliens involved is even less, if Xu Chu doesn't pay attention to it, what if he blindly attacks?" ”
"How else! I asked the military advisor to block Xu Chu, and I took down the Xiping Fortress 1 by myself
Pang Yuan glanced at Guan Yu: "The plan of the second general has been decided?" ”
"Nothing has changed1
"That's good, I will try my best to block Xu Chu's cavalry, and as for the second general, I will wait for the good news of the second general1
"Humph! There is a labor division, Guan Ping, go 1
Guan Ping looked back at Pang Yuan embarrassedly, looked at his father with some concern, shook his head helplessly, and hurriedly followed.
Wait until Guan Yu is far away. Pang Yuanhe smiled and said, "It's just a single husband, it's difficult to make a big deal 1."
As soon as Cao Hong's side was attacked by Guan Yu, Xu Chu's side began to attack Pang Yuan, and Pang Yuan also did his best, after all, he was also a seventh-order wise general, and he had a lot of paper talismans in his hand, what was the use of traps, chaos, falling rocks, and fire attacks. As long as his strategy is enough, Pang Yuan will not hesitate to use his skills.
The crossbowmen on the hillsides on both sides were asked to aim at the war horses and shoot fiercely, and many players behind Xu Chu pumped cold arrows, everyone understood that now they were rushing for time, and it was Guan Yu who took Xiping Village first. It was Xu Chu who broke through Pang Yuan's blocking position first.
Xu Chu's side was very uncomfortable by Pang Yuan's skills, but Xu Chu could only grit his teeth and attack at any cost!
Guan Yu's side is not smooth, Cao Hong's battle is really not good, but defending the city is relatively simple, coupled with the restrictions of the terrain, Guan Yu's troops can be invested at one time is very limited. And there is no way to set up trebuchets, but the defenders in the city can have a fixed long-range position set up, and they don't even need to aim, as long as Guan Yu's army rushes up, the huge oil tank fireballs in the city will be overwhelmingly smashed down, and finally rushed up against these death dangers, and Guan Yu was greeted by dense heavy crossbows.
Finally, I got to the bottom of the wall, and it was dense with rolling logs and stones. Even if Guan Yu personally led the troops to rush forward, it would be difficult to successfully ascend the city, after all, the soldiers behind him did not have his blood length, and there were indeed not many soldiers who could survive these three dense blows.
Guan Yu was anxious, he also knew that he was competing with Xu Chu for time, originally he was quite confident that he could easily take down Cao Hong, who was killed in battle. Who knew that the result would be like this, now Guan Yu is just embarrassed to freeze here, retreating, and can't wipe his face. entered, and couldn't take down the Xiping cottage.
Guan Yu's face was red and purple, his long beard was already stained with a lot of blood, and the big knife in his hand was wielded like a windmill, blocking countless arrows, and throwing skills at the city wall with his life, but how much could he kill and injure by relying on his old man alone.
"Father, father, it's no good, the casualties are too heavy to attack at all, let's withdraw 1
"Presumptuous, you dare to disturb my army's heart!?"
"Father, if the military division can't hold it, our army will be worried about collapse if it suffers from the enemy.1
"Phew1
"When 1
Guan Ping blocked Guan Yu's angry blow, and kicked back a few steps, although he raised his shield to protect his body, but he was still taken advantage of by a few crossbow arrows, shot on his arm and shoulder, Guan Ping stood firm, pushed aside the arrows that flew unrelentingly, glared at his father and said: "Father, even if you kill me, I have to say, this battle can't be fought like this, withdraw 1."
Guan Yu frowned, hesitated slightly, looked up at the city wall, and shouted unwillingly: "Rush again, rush again, the enemy is just as difficult, kill ah1."
"Kill! ~”
Cao Hong is really difficult, in such a short period of time, nearly three thousand soldiers have died on the not very wide city wall, if it goes on like this, it won't be long before Cao Hong will become the commander of the pole, Cao Hong also regrets it now, if it wasn't for the big losses in the battle before, now he doesn't have to be so critical!
However, there are people on this battlefield who are more critical than Cao Hong, that is Pang Yuan, Pang Yuan's side is not manpowered, plus the losses in the previous blockade battle, and now they are being attacked by Xu Chu at any cost, and the casualties are even worse!
Pang Yuan is not a military general after all, and there is certainly a gap between the bonus to the troops and Xu Chu, the top military general of the eighth order, to be able to withstand Xu Chu's onslaught for such a long time, thanks to Pang Yuan's seemingly inexhaustible skills, but no matter how much the calculation value is, there will be a time when it will run out, and this time has finally arrived!
"The enemy army has no skills, rush ah 1 Xu Chu keenly discovered this change, the original situation of one trap at a time suddenly disappeared, Xu Chu was overjoyed, and immediately gave the order to rush upward!
Pang Yuan sighed, grabbed the feather fan in his hand hard, glanced at the direction where Guan Yu was, and shook his head helplessly, his defense line finally collapsed! To be continued...
