Chapter 130: Xiahou Yuan's helplessness
Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin patrolled along the city wall for a week, and saw that it was like a soldier's report, and there were large armies guarding the east, west, and north sides, and only the south gate was not seen.
Xiahou Yuan's face was solemn, he looked at Le Jin and asked, "What does Wen Qian think?" ”
Lejin leaned on the city wall with both hands, looked at the Koji Yi camp that was moving to the city, and replied: "Surround three and lack one, it is to prevent our soldiers from having the heart to break the cauldron and hit morale!"
It seems that there is no one in the south, but it is the most dangerous, and Koji will set up an ambush in the south to prevent our army from withdrawing from here! ”
Xiahou Yuan nodded after listening, the lack of one of the three is the most common strategy in siege warfare, Sun Tzu's Art of War once said that "the siege of the division must be que", and the lack of false words is the lack of words.
But the purpose of Xiahou Yuan's questioning was not to let Le Jin explain the art of war for him, but to ask him what to do, so he asked again: "Is there a way to crack it?" ”
Le Jin lowered his head and muttered for a moment, and then asked Xiahou Yuan: "I'm thinking, why is Lu Yi sure that the two of us will withdraw our troops?" ”
Xiahou Yuan was slightly stunned after hearing this, and said puzzledly: "What does Wen Qian mean?" ”
Le Jin frowned and explained: "Although there are nearly 30,000 soldiers in Kojiyi, there are more than 15,000 soldiers in the city, and the city wall of Ju County is strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, where does its confidence come from?" ”
After hearing this, Xiahou Yuan also reacted, glanced outside the city, and then asked, "Could it be that Lu Yi has any tricks?" ”
Le Jin shook his head slightly after hearing this, puzzled in his heart, and replied: "Whether it is a trick or not, it depends on what he does next." If the siege is not attacked, there must be fraud, and if the army attacks the city, everything is worry-free!
Now that the lord is blocked by Tao Qian in Tan County, the two sides are in a critical situation, if the two of us lose Ju County because of carelessness, so that Liyi will lead troops to reinforce, it is too much of a crime! ”
Xiahou Yuan smiled contemptuously and replied: "Everyone in the world says that they are good at fighting, I want to take a look and see what ability he has to break through the city guarded by the two of us?"
Today, Koji Yi divided his troops to besiege the three gates, and the two of us also acted separately, I guarded the east gate, and you guarded the west gate, how? ”
Le Jin nodded and replied, "Good! ”
……
In the city, Guan Hai said to the big man in front of him: "General Koji has arrived outside the city today, and we must also be prepared to wait for the opportunity!" ”
The big man said with a worried face: "Xiahou Yuan put grain and grass in the barracks in the north of the city, and the Cao army in it is about 5,000, and we are 500, how can we succeed?" ”
Guan Hai smiled slightly after hearing this, and comforted: "Don't worry, I have been thinking about countermeasures for days, and finally come up with a plan, and I will succeed!" ”
Dahan was originally full of sadness, but when he heard Guan Hai say that he had a plan, he immediately turned happy and said: "Let's talk about it carefully!" ”
Guan Hai leaned forward slightly, and said in a low voice: "When the time is ripe, you can order people to set fire to the south and west of the city respectively.
And Xiahou Yuan and Le Jin, seeing the fire in the city, knew that there were people in the city, and they would transfer the troops of the North Battalion to fight the fire and quell the chaos.
At that time, Cao's army's grain and grass will be destroyed, and the army will have no fighting spirit, and it will collapse without a fight, and a big thing will be done! ”
After hearing this, Dahan's eyes lit up, and he stroked his palm and smiled: "Wonderful, wonderful!" ”
The next day, according to the plan, Koyi let Tai Shici lead his troops to attack the city, and the other two sides were used as feints.
The horn sounded, and the army quickly assembled, and then Tai Shici gave an order to lead the troops to carry the cloud ladder to the city of Juxian.
Xiahou Yuan watched Liyi send troops to attack the city, but instead of being nervous, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
According to Lejin's analysis yesterday, as long as Koji Yi attacks the city, the possibility of using trickery is much reduced.
Seeing that Tai Shi Ci was leading the troops closer and closer, Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly: "Archers prepare!" ”
Tai Shi Ci rode on a horse, looked at Xiahou Yuan in the city, smiled slightly, took off the strong bow behind his back, and ordered: "Take the Cao Junqi as the number, and attack the city immediately!" ”
After Tai Shici finished shouting, he quickly pulled out a sharp arrow from the quiver, pulled the bow and aimed it, and then shot it out in an instant.
Xiahou Yuan had been staring at Tai Shi Ci closely, and when he saw him take out his bow and arrow, he was shocked and shouted loudly: "Be careful of cold arrows!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Tai Shi Ci had already shot the arrow, and Xiahou Yuan and the defenders were so frightened that they hurriedly squatted under the city wall, but they didn't expect that Tai Shi Ci's target was not a person, but a handsome banner shot at Xiahou Yuan again.
With a "beep", the sharp arrow shot down the handsome flag, and then the remaining momentum was unabated, shooting on the flagpole, the power was so great, and the tail of the arrow was still swaying violently.
"Good arrows!"
Lu Yi stood behind and saw Tai Shi Ci shoot down Shuai Qi with an arrow, and praised loudly, this arrow was really beautiful!
Seeing this, the soldiers behind Tai Shi Ci also boosted their morale, and according to Tai Shi Ci's previous order, they carried the cloud ladder and rushed to the city with a shout.
On the other hand, the defenders in the city are all afraid, Tai Shici is still so easy to shoot the flag, if it is to shoot people, wouldn't it be easier?
For a while, the soldiers of Cao Jun were panicked and at a loss.
Xiahou Yuan had already gotten up, and when he saw this scene, he slammed the city wall angrily and shouted loudly: "Order, order someone to take down all the flags in the city!" Then he saw that the enemy army was already attacking, and hurriedly ordered: "Archers release arrows!" ”
After hearing this, the archers hurriedly reopened their bows and arrows, but after this delay, Tai Shici's soldiers had already attacked the city, set up a ladder and began to climb.
"Throw the rolling stones, release the thunderwood, and keep shooting!"
For a while, under the city of Juxian, the sound of shouting and killing shook the sky!
Tai Shi Ci held a strong bow, rode on a horse to command back and forth, and occasionally saw the enemy warriors, the bow was an arrow, a hundred shots, without exception.
Because of this, when Cao Bing was defending the city, he was afraid that he would be shot to death by Tai Shici.
Xiahou Yuan watched Taishi Ciyao and raise his might, and he hated it in his heart, but he had no good plan for the time being, so he could only keep loudly encouraging morale.
However, Xiahou Yuan knew in his heart that Tai Shi Ci could not always shoot with arrows, otherwise there would be no need to fight this battle.
Since the beating of Tao Qian to pacify the Yellow Turban in Xuzhou, the people in the city have never experienced a war, at this time they heard the shouts outside the city to kill, all of them killed the door, and then the whole family hugged together, hiding in the corner of the house, shivering.
Lu Yi looked at Xiahou Yuan, who was standing in the city and commanding the defense, and said to Cheng Gongying beside him: "Xiahou Yuan is worthy of being Cao Cao's henchman, and today it seems that he is above the commander of the army, but he is not in vain!" ”
Cheng Gongying was also observing Xiahou Yuan, and nodded after listening to it and replied: "There are no vain people under the fame, if you don't order Guan Hai to sneak in the city in advance, it will not be easy to break through Ju County in a short time!" ”
Koji Yi listened to it and thought so.
At this time, the two sides had already been in close proximity, Tai Shici commanded the soldiers to carry the ladder to attack the city, and Xiahou Yuan also responded with arrows and rolling stones and thunderwood, and the two sides were inseparably killed for a while.
Guan Hai in the city sat in the house, listening to the increasingly fierce shouts and killings outside the city, and his heart gradually became hot.
In less than three days, Cao Jun will inevitably shift all his attention to the outside of the city, and then he can act according to the plan, burn grain and grass, and Xiahou Yuan will be defeated!
