Chapter 124: Siege the City Gate
After seeing them, the Yellow Turban Army who were blocking the way of the Yunze Army immediately fled to both sides to make way for them, and the people were a little crying and laughing when they saw such a scene, as if the Yellow Turban Army was lining up to welcome them to come and inspect.
Therefore, with the cooperation of the Yellow Turban Army along the way, Wenmin and they quickly killed the place close to Quyang City, and when Wenmin saw the city wall of Quyang City, he immediately excitedly commanded the soldiers to attack the city gate.
However, at this time, Guo Jia stopped him and said to him: "Lord, we must be careful this time, we have now penetrated deep into the enemy's interior, and there are hundreds of millions of Yellow Turban troops around. The reason why we were able to chase here so smoothly along the way was because the Yellow Turban Army was demoralized and afraid of the might of our army, so we avoided all the way to let us chase so fast, but we are now a lone army, and the court army and player troops behind us are at least dozens of miles away, if we want to capture the city gate at this time, we will not only have to face the desperate resistance of the defenders in the city, but also probably face the attack of the Yellow Turban Army outside the city at the same time, so we will fall into the enemy's two-sided attack. ”
Wenmin was also startled when he heard Guo Jia's warning, and looked down from the sky on a dragon horse, and sure enough, he found that their hundreds of thousands of troops were already surrounded by layers of the Yellow Turban Army, although these Yellow Turban Army outside the city now have no desire to fight due to low morale and no desire to fight, and they have not come to him for trouble, but if these Yellow Turban Army clamp them from behind when they seize the city gate, then even if they can capture the city gate, the pressure on defense will be very great.
So Wenmin asked Guo Jiadao: "Then what should we do now?" Will you go back and join General Huangfu Song? ”
Guo Jia shook his head and said, "It's definitely not okay to go back now." In that case, our previous efforts will be in vain, if these Yellow Turban troops outside the city can enter the city smoothly. Then our results this time will be reduced by at least seventy percent! When the time comes, if you want to lay down Quyang, you will pay a lot of time and price. So we must stop these Yellow Turbans from entering the city now! ”
"So how do you stop them from entering the city? This time is not like the last time in Wancheng, the number of those Yellow Turban troops outside the city during the battle of Wancheng was not large. And they were all crowded at one gate, so we could prevent them from entering through the other gates, but this time the enemy was much larger than us, and even if we blocked one gate, they could still enter through the other gates. ”
"So what should we do now?" Wenmin asked.
"I don't have any good ways now, at present, we can only try to storm the city gate like last time in Wancheng, although the loss will be very large, but it is the best way to break the city in a short time."
So then the Yun Ze army followed the Yellow Turban Army who rushed towards the city to kill the city gate, but this time the Yellow Turban Army in the city disappointed the Wenmin and them. When they saw the Yunze army approaching the city gate, they sent people out to drive away the Yellow Turban Army that was entering the city and let them move to other city gates, as for those who were stubborn and wanted to forcibly break in, those who drove them also unceremoniously waved their butcher knives and beheaded them, this bloody method really greatly deterred the chaotic Yellow Turban Army, and they all obediently moved to other city gates, and the defenders of the city also took the opportunity to pull up the drawbridge and close the city gate.
Wenmin looked at the closed gate. There was some helplessness in his heart, it seemed that he couldn't do it again this time, so he had to ask Guo Jia again, and Guo Jia thought about it a little. He replied: "Now it seems that the current guard in Quyang City is definitely not a simple character, he must have guessed that we will drive the deserters and take the opportunity to seize the city gate." That's why we don't hesitate to be charged with killing friendly soldiers to prevent us from taking the city gates. Now, even if we move to other gates, the result will certainly be the same. Judging by the ruthlessness of this person's heart. Even if he gave up all these Yellow Turban troops outside the city, he would not give us a chance to seize the city gates. So we have to settle for the next best. We have tried our best to prevent the Yellow Turban army outside the city from entering the city, and I suggest that we now divide our troops into four directions, and guard them in the direction of the four city gates, so as to prevent the enemy army from entering the city and force them to flee to other places. ”
Wen Min listened to Guo Jia's crazy plan, and said with some worry in his heart: "Now that we are surrounded by enemies, it is already very dangerous, if we divide the troops again, wouldn't it be even more dangerous?" ”
Guo Jia explained: "The enemy outside the city is not to worry, they are now like lost dogs, and they also know that there are more pursuers behind them, so they are afraid of being caught up by the Han army, and it is impossible for them to dare to fight with us outside the city." Now the only threat to us is the enemy army in the city, but in this case, they are more worried about the loss of the city, so it is unlikely that they will come out of the city to attack us, and the distance between these gates is not very far, even if one of them is attacked, it is not very difficult to support each other. ”
Wenmin thought about it for a while, there is only this way, even if the soldiers are divided into four roads, each road can have nearly 200,000 troops, and there is no problem to deal with these Yellow Turban Army who are not organized like lost dogs and only care about fleeing for their lives, so they let Zhang Fei, Huang Zhong, and Gan Ning lead an army respectively, while Zhou Cang and Huang Xu Wenmin are responsible for the road together, stopping near the four city gates respectively, not to kill people, but to drive away those Yellow Turban Army who want to enter the city, and for those who flee to other places, they don't care.
After the Yellow Turban Army who fled for their lives saw that the Yun Ze Army was just preventing them from entering the city, most of them were afraid to break through the power of the Yun Ze Army, and they all fled to other places obediently, and those who dared to break through the defense line and enter the city were all ruthlessly killed.
Of course, since the Yun Ze army was afraid of the city guards on the city wall and did not dare to get too close to the city wall, it was impossible for them to prevent some Yellow Turban troops from sneaking up on the city from the edge of their defense line. But what made these Yellow Turban Army, who had finally reached the city gate in fear, despair, was that even if they broke through the enemy's blockade to the gate, because the defenders in the city were afraid of the Yunze army not far away, no matter how they pleaded, the defenders did not dare to open the city gate.
In this way, those fleeing Yellow Turban Army no longer expected to be able to rush into the city, and all fled to other places, so that the pressure on the Yun Ze Army was reduced a lot.
At this time, the Wenmin and they also saw that although the guards in the city were ruthless, they were also very conservative, otherwise they would not have refused to open the city gate and let people in because they were afraid of the Yunze army not far from the city gate, so they could be regarded as abandoning the hundreds of millions of Yellow Turban troops outside the city in vain! Although these Yellow Turban Corps are worth a lot of military exploits, such a large number is not something that hundreds of thousands of people in the Yunze Military Region can kill, and completing the task or obtaining a reward for the strategic advantage of the army is the fastest way to obtain combat exploits.
