The battle was extremely tragic, although Zhang Jaw had been prepared, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to have such a big determination, and so decisive, he said that he would fight, and he would go all out as soon as he shot, all kinds of siege equipment were transported, and there were still many preparations in the rear, which shows that Cao Cao has been planning for this day for a long time, and this hero is not idle.

Standing at the head of the city, followed by Gao Ran, the two of them have worked together since Han Fu was under Han Fu, they are like brothers, and now they are watching and helping each other, guarding this place together, and vowing not to take half a step back.

"Those catapults are too threatening, but now the Cao army is attacking fiercely, and it is difficult for us to get out of the city, which is really hateful!" Gao Ran clenched his fists fiercely, his eyes flashed with anger, but he also knew that there was nothing he could do, his strength was not an opponent such as Xiahoudun, and Cao Jun's defense was tight, even if he went out of the city, he couldn't destroy the catapult, what should he do?

Dong'e also has catapults, which have long been in a state of attack, and the situation has been smashed out one by one, which has made Cao Jun's casualties very heavy, but Cao Jun's catapults are obviously superior, and the effective attack distance is farther.

Speaking of which, Cao Cao's military strength is too strong, three Tianwu Realm generals, hundreds of thousands of elite troops, this is enough to cause a sensation anywhere, now Lu Bu is dead, the Xiliang army is defeated, in addition to Zhang Fan, I am afraid Cao Cao is the second largest prince, and his strength is incomparable.

"The lord has a plan, let's be restless, just guard the city without losing it!" Zhang Jaw sighed lightly, in fact, he also wanted to fight, but the current situation was really unfavorable to his side, and there was only one way to die if he went to war, he was not a reckless man, and he knew how to do it.

But how long can you keep it? Cao Cao's offensive like this, I'm afraid that Dong'e City will definitely be broken within two or three days!

Suddenly, Zhang Jaw's eyes widened suddenly, and he gasped violently, because he found that twenty catapults had been launched from Cao Cao's rear team, this kind of catapult was slightly smaller than the one that had just been put into the battlefield, it was obviously just an ordinary thing, but no matter what, it had a powerful lethality, and this lethality was not aimed at the defenders, but directly at the essence, against the city wall!

"Quietly transport our catapults up the city walls, condescendingly, and destroy these big guys!"

Zhang Jaw immediately ordered that the newly transported catapult was exactly the same as the one he owned, with the same range, and his own side was attacking from a high position, relatively speaking, the range was longer, and it was entirely possible to destroy it and buy time.

Soon several catapults were transported up the city wall, and the experienced controllers launched them after some adjustments, and the boulder drew a perfect parabola in the sky, hitting Cao Jun's catapult, destroying it and sending debris flying.

"Good vote!" Zhang Jaw praised it, which was undoubtedly very inspiring to the army, and it was a beautiful counterattack.

However, before he could be happy, countless fires suddenly broke out among the soldiers and horses of the Cao army under the city, and then soared upwards and flew towards the city!

"Be careful, it's a rocket!"

Gao Ran shouted and shot down the nearby rockets, but the enemy's target was obviously not here, and several catapults that had just been transported to the city were shot, igniting a fire and instantly scrapped.

"Damn, you've been tricked!" Zhang Jaw's face was pale, and he felt that his movements were under the control of the other party, although his own catapult had a shot, but after all, there were not many, and two of the boulders thrown by Cao Jun missed, and Cao Jun's round of rockets shot straight up, but his own losses were greater than Cao Jun's, which was undoubtedly a round of calculation.

The defenders were furious, and the rolling wood and stones were constantly pushed down, coupled with the flying arrows, slaughtered the Cao army under the city, but the losses were still irreparable, and there were only a dozen catapults in Dong'azhong, and five were lost in a row, and the next battle was even more difficult.

Outside Dong'a, Cao Cao was sneering, and Cheng Yu Xunyou was following him, and he had to admit that Zhang Jaw was brave and strategic, but compared with these people, he still seemed very immature and not an opponent.

Cheng Yu is also good at playing conspiracy, and said at this time: "Zhang Yan left Yanzhou, this seems to be our opportunity, but in fact, there is a great danger brewing in it, is it worth it for the lord to do this?" ”

The headless and brainless sentence made Cao Cao's face change slightly, and he snorted coldly: "It's worth it!" I didn't expect that the storm would not watch me sit big, and there must be other back-ups, but this time I had to launch, there was no better opportunity than this! ”

He said: "Although the Jizhou army is brave and elite, but its main force is not here, Zhao Yun Huang Zhong and others followed the wind and clouds to fight in Sili, Zhang Jaw is also a good general, but it is difficult to stop our army!" I just need to destroy Zhang Jaw with lightning speed, even if he is in turmoil, even if he has great powers, what can he do to me? ”

Although Guo Jia died, none of Cheng Yu and Xun You were idle, in fact, when Ma Chao sent someone to ask, Cao Cao had already thought about it clearly, he knew that once Zhang Yan left Yanzhou, Zhang Fan would definitely not be able to sit idly by, and there would be tricks against him, but since Cao Cao dared to do so, he was fully prepared!

On the one hand, he has already built a lot of siege equipment, recuperated for a long time, and has the confidence to quickly seize the city once it breaks out, on the other hand, he sent Yu Ban to pretend to make a large number of troops and horses to Qingzhou to make the illusion of sending a large number of troops and horses, in fact, the real mobilization of soldiers and horses is only tens of thousands, but let Yu Ban lead the army to ambush at the junction with Xuzhou, because no matter what, Zhang Fan on the side of the division is impossible to move, and it is difficult for the Jizhou army to support the situation in Qingzhou, and it is difficult to send troops, if there is really any danger, it can only come from Xuzhou, so he made arrangements in advance to prevent accidents.

Cao Cao's appetite is very big, on the one hand, he wants to pull out the thorn in his eye, and on the other hand, he wants to ambush the people who come to help, whether it is Tao Qian or Zhou Yu, at that time, he must take it lightly, if he can blossom on both sides, then his great cause has taken a firm step!

Zhang Fan seems to be strong now, but in fact, the military strength is still insufficient, the allies are only Jiangdong and Youzhou, Xuzhou is barely one, but Tao Qian is weak, almost negligible, if Yu Ban can succeed, it can naturally disintegrate Jiangdong's vital force, so that Zhou Yu does not dare to advance again, can only return to Jiangdong in disgrace, and after the defeat, Tao Qian will definitely be honest and dare not take another step out of Xuzhou!

At this time, Cao Cao has captured Zhangjaw and disintegrated the powerful combat power of the Jizhou army, which is the opportunity for him to rise, to threaten Jizhou if he advances, and to develop steadily when he retreats, the best of both worlds!

The most important point is that once Zhou Yu and Tao Qian are defeated, the rest of the princes will find that Zhang Fan is not invincible, the most critical of which is naturally Jingzhou Liu Biao, he used Cheng Pu's attack on Jiangling to prevaricate Ma Chao, and once he finds that the victory has been biased towards the coalition army, he may not be able to fight back, Cheng Pu's Jiangdong Army is fighting away, and Liu Biao has a tacit understanding in secret, so he will naturally not be guarded, and it is very likely to be directly annihilated in Jingzhou!

As a result, Jiangdong's strength was greatly damaged, Liu Biao returned to the camp, and Cao Cao's power increased dramatically, how should Zhang Fan resist?

Conspiracy, counter-conspiracy!

This is Zhang Fan's chance, isn't it his Cao Cao's chance?

Cao Cao is not the kind of person who will sit back and wait to be killed, he is a generation of heroes, bold and fearless, if he really wants to fight, who is afraid of whom?
