Chapter 801 is stale
Xiahou Dun's hand felt heavy, his whole body fell backwards, his arms were forced, and he used this skill in reverse, and the spear stabbed forward violently, just blocking Sun Jian's onslaught!
"Public reply 1
Sun Jian roared wildly, his eyes were red, his body turned like the wind, and he swirled along Xiahoudun's spear, and the long knife in his hand roared towards Xiahoudun's neck.
Xiahoudun had to rush to the right side, and then the spear swept and slammed towards Sun Jian's waist.
'When/
With a loud bang, Sun Jian's entire body flew up, but Sun Jian seemed to have been prepared, and landed lightly and accurately on the battlement wall, the long knife was diagonally in front of him, but his eyes looked out of the city wall, Huang Gai's body was pushed out of the city wall by Xiahoudun, and it was falling under the city wall at the moment.
Suddenly, a white light flashed, and Huang Gai's body disappeared, only a pair of steel shovels tumbled and fell in the air, falling in the blood-soaked mud blood under the city wall.
"Xiahoudun, I will write down this account, and I will repay it to you one day
After speaking, Sun Jian shouted: "Withdraw 1."
Sun Jian turned around and disappeared on the battlement, Xiahoudun pushed up the face barrier on his face with some regret, sighed slightly, chased to the wall, and said loudly: "Sun Wentai, there is no selfish enmity on the battlefield, you are a villain!" Haha Huaxiong's revenge has not yet been avenged, and now he holds a grudge again! It's really a villain who will repay him, villain 1
Of course, Xiahoudun is hitting Sun Jian's morale and reputation, if this kind of thing can't be grasped, then it's really stupid!
"The enemy is defeated! Kill 1
"Kill~! Kill! ~”
The sound of the defenders on the city walls was shocking. Sun Jian's army under the city was a little sluggish, although Sun Jian was not harmed, but it is an indisputable fact that Huang Gai died in order to protect Sun Jian, and Sun Jian himself also withdrew from the city. Apparently still the attack is not effective. In this case, Sun Jianjun's morale was greatly reduced.
"Withdrawal 1
Sun Jian glanced at Xiahoudun who was showing off his might on the city wall hatefully, and the hatred in his heart was surging, not only because Xiahoudun killed Huang Gai. is even more because Xiahoudun's words just now aroused the shame, anger and unwillingness hidden in Sun Jian's heart! This emotion was tumbling in Sun Jian's heart, and he could no longer calm down.
Don't be angry!! Sun resolutely decided to withdraw first, otherwise today's losses may be even greater, and if he even folded himself under this city, it would not be a joke. It's a disaster!
The whining horn sounded, the crossbow arrows and gravel in the sky flew more cheerfully, the long-range troops on both sides were working hard, one side was trying to contain the long-range troops in the city to help their troops retreat smoothly, and the other side hoped to take advantage of the opportunity of the enemy's retreat to kill and injure the enemy as much as possible, you know, the biggest damage on the battlefield. It often occurs in the event of a rout in pursuit.
Sun Jian's troops did not collapse, so they gradually retreated in an orderly manner, although there were some losses, but the losses were not large, but. The loss of morale is considerable.
Sun Jian did not rush to lead the army back to the camp, but formed a formation outside the firing range and reorganized his troops before starting to retreat in an orderly manner. There is no longer a chance left to Xiahoudun.
Xiahoudun at the head of the city couldn't help but choke his wrists, this Sun Jian was really tenacious, and in this case, he didn't have a crazy counterattack, and he didn't mess up his own position, and he was able to withdraw slowly and methodically, and he really deserved his name as the Jiangdong Tiger.
At night, under the whirring cold wind, Xiahoudun's cavalry continued to harass Sun Jian's camp, as well as the Inhuman troops and Inhumans who came out of the camp, and the battle lasted almost all night.
The next day, the regrouped Sun Jian continued to gather troops to attack Hefei City, but Sun Jian no longer dared to underestimate Xiahoudun's ability, just a decent siege, and even more often just use the siege to train his own troops, every once in a while, he replaced a force, and then withdrew the troops that were not too big to repair, compared to the infantry besieging the city, but the long-range troops fought quite hard.
Xiahoudun saw Sun Jian's plan, and naturally he was happy to cooperate, he needed to train the soldiers, because he still had a large number of militia in his hands, just with the help of Sun Jian's plan to attack the city for a long time, to train his militia, these militiamen have become veterans after a few battles, and the efficiency of defending the city must have skyrocketed!
As a result, what seemed to be a fierce battle was actually that the casualties on both sides were not large, and after a whole day of siege fighting, the casualties were less than one-fifth of the first day.
At night, Xiahoudun's people attacked again, and this kind of harassment naturally had no impact on Sun Jian, but for the aliens who followed Sun Jian to attack Hefei, Xiahoudun's harassment was too hateful, and he didn't dare to go out of the camp at night, and he couldn't do any tasks, so he could only stay in the camp honestly to do production and maintenance tasks, which was absolutely intolerable to the aliens.
After reacting to Sun Jian to no avail, many strangers simply left and turned to Xiahoudun's camp, at least they could come out to harass Sun Jian at night, and they didn't have to be bored in the city.
In this way, unconsciously, the situation that was originally extremely favorable to Sun Jian was quietly changing, and the balance of forces between the two sides was slowly returning to a state of parity, and all this stemmed from Sun Jian's overly impatient attack, and from Sun Jian's loss of a general's blow to morale.
What makes Sun Jian even more helpless is that Xiahoudun is too steady, almost without a sense of adventure, he will not take advantage of Sun Jian's unstable foothold and send troops to sneak attack, nor will he send troops to sneak attack because Sun Jian is frustrated, let alone send troops to sneak attack because Sun Jian has failed to attack for days and his morale is low.
This made all of Sun Jian's plans and calculations come to naught, and Xia Houdun made up his mind to be a turtle, Sun Jian had a thousand skills and had no way to get Xiahoudun out of the turtle shell, but he couldn't gnaw on this turtle shell, and accidentally broke a big tooth, sadly!
As for Xiahoudun, he was not in a hurry at all, Sun Jian's rush attack on the first day and Huang Gai's loss unexpectedly made Xiahoudun pick up a big bargain, but Xiahoudun was not greedy for cheapness, which is also the reason why Cao Cao was relieved to let Xiahoudun come to confront Sun Jian, if it was Xiahouyuan, maybe he would take advantage of Sun Jian's loss of the general to expand the results, and the result would be bad.
Now Xiahoudun's situation is very good, which is completely in line with Xi Zhicai's previous strategic concept, and also in line with the tactical requirements of Cao Cao's deployment, now Sun Jian is firmly glued to Hefei City, Sun Jian who has damaged Huang Gai, and Sun Jian, who has lost face, will basically not withdraw his troops, and Xiahoudun is also careful not to attack Sun Jian's logistics line too much.
Of course, Xiahoudun is also worried that if he hits the logistics line too much, he may fall into Sun Jian's trap, and then the gains outweigh the losses, and the cavalry released outside the city is still of great significance to Xiahoudun, at least, now he can force a lot of strangers to take refuge on his side, and with the accumulation of these aliens' contradictions against Sun Jian, it will definitely be a huge blow to Sun Jian.
If Sun Jian couldn't help but destroy his cavalry first, it would be even better, if he wanted to destroy these scattered cavalry, it would take a lot of energy and time, not to mention, if he didn't put his mind to it, maybe he would be planted in it, don't forget, after all, this is Xiahoudun's home field, not Sun Jian's land.
So the Hefei battlefield formed a stalemate, one in the city leisurely, one outside the city to try their best, one anxious, one is trying to delay, this battle really became a bad battle, even Sun Jian himself felt embarrassed, but also said that Huainan came to Liwei, the result was to Huainan lost people, not only lost the army, but also made no progress, and with the world-famous, brave and unparalleled Sun Jian, but is just a member of Cao Cao's generals, how high is this, Needless to say, everyone can see that Sun Jian is a little afraid to think about what those people in the Jiangdong clan will think of Sun Jian.
Cao Cao was naturally very happy to get Xiahoudun's battle report, if it weren't for the fact that Lu'an was also actively preparing for the battle now, Cao Cao wanted to put up a banquet to celebrate, it seems that Xi Zhicai's first step strategy has been successful, and as long as he can defeat Zhang Zhiyuan, who can arrive tomorrow, this farce of besieging Huainan should be over, and he can also greatly redeem his reputation that has plummeted a lot.
Xi Zhicai is also very happy that Xiahoudun has overfulfilled the task, the most important thing for Xiahoudun is to greatly reduce Sun Jian's face, and now Sun Jian can't afford to lose his face the most. p> However, Xi Zhicai didn't dare to celebrate so soon, after all, this was just a good and somewhat unexpected start, not only did Xiahoudun's side need to continue to fight wits and courage with Sun Jian to maintain this good situation, but also Cao Cao's side also needed to be able to fight quickly and defeat or annihilate Zhang Zhiyuan's troops as soon as possible.
Of course, Xiahou Yuan's side is not unimportant, but compared to the two battlefields in the east, the battlefield on the west side has the least impact on the entire battle situation and strategy, of course, it can't be taken lightly, if Xiahou Yuan fails to contain Zhao Yun, and Zhang Zhiyuan of Lu'an and Sun Jian of Hefei are frustrated, Zhao Yun may come to the rescue and respond to these two battlefields in turn, so that Tian Ji's horse racing strategy will not be able to play, and it will become Zhao Yun playing two dozen and one to bully less!
If that happens, things will be bad! Therefore, Xi Zhicai did not have the intention of celebrating, but reminded Cao Cao that he should concentrate on preparing carefully for the battle, so as to defeat Zhang Zhiyuan in one battle.
And Zhao Yun, who was worried by Xi Zhicai, is also facing the same situation as Sun Jian at this moment, Xiahou Yuan can't defend it, bullying Zhao Yun is a cavalry, and his siege ability is poor, in the face of Xiahou Yuan's stubborn defense tactics, Zhao Yun is also having a headache now.
