The war was not over, at least in the case of Cao Ren's army on the eastern slope wall.

After eating the cakes, Cao Ren took a team of elite soldiers around the east slope wall and returned to the military formation.

At this time, the other officials of the Cao army were also full and ready to start attacking the wall.

Cao Ren knew very well that he had not been able to capture the Dongpo Wall last night, so he would need to wait for him to use blood to attack during the day.

Fortunately, this blood does not need to be shed by Jinan people.

Soon, an army of ants moved from the rear, and they panicked and had to come to the front of the battle with a sad expression, driven by the Cao army behind.

To be precise, this is not an army, but a group of displaced people.

This is the Dingkou swept by the Plains Army itself from the vicinity, which was originally used to accompany the army as a servant, and now it is directly used by Cao Ren to fill the ravine.

It can be seen that there are also women with dull expressions in the crowd of the ant army, squeezing into the middle of the crowd like a frightened bird.

And the men inside had no pity, and kicked the women to the ground with one kick.

There was another burst of crying and crying.

Cao Ren, who watched these ugly dramas on the chariot of the Chinese army, was very contemptuous of the Plains Army in his heart, and they even swept people to the women.

What are they for?

But Cao Jun is not a soldier who loves the people like a son, so he is also indifferent to these Cao Ren.

Cao Ren gave an order to the following generals:

"After a while, you will tell these appendages that our Cao Army is different from those people in the Plains Army, we don't want them to die, we give them a chance. As long as he can go back and forth three times, he can live. He can choose to join our Cao Army, or he can continue to be the packer of the Plains Army. ”

The general got Cao Ren's order, and Pegasus rushed to the front of the ant army in front of the formation and told these people the news.

Looking at the still noisy appearance in front of him, Cao Ren shook his head.

He turned his eyes to the carriage and saw a young general pondering, so he asked curiously:

"Shengping, what do you think, it's better to talk about it."

This is called the Ascendant, it is Gao Tanglong, from Taishan County.

Since Mount Tai fell into the hands of thieves, Gao Tanglong moved to Jinan with his clan, and later became the living beings of Jinan. After Cao Cao entered Jinan, he joined Cao Cao's shogunate.

He has both humanities and martial arts, and this time he will accompany the army as Cao Ren's general.

Gao Tanglong respectfully replied to Cao Ren's salute, and then sighed from the bottom of his heart:

"I learned the way of using soldiers from the captain, and I have a little understanding."

Cao Ren is curious, he didn't start to schedule the attack on the wall, why do you have an understanding? So let Gao Tanglong speak.

Gao Tanglong pointed to the messy ant army and said something like this:

"They are like dogs and sheep, driven to be terrified. If we fill the gullies directly with them, and do not say how effective they are, it will not be easy to restrain them. And now the lieutenant can be reassured with just one word, which can be described as the art of war. ”

Gao Tang Long saw that there were still a few robes on the side and doubts, so he spoke more in detail:

"The reason is this, the captain said that as long as they push three rounds, they can be withdrawn, in fact, it is to give these people hope. No matter how dangerous the front is, as long as you grit your teeth and survive three times, you can live. This kind of hope allows them to fill the ravines with their hearts, and they do not need to be restrained by our army. ”

Then, Gao Tanglong looked at Cao Ren in the car with admiration, and said seriously:

"I often listen to Cao Gongyan's way of using soldiers, and I have one mind. Now I see that the captain has already obtained its essence with the use of soldiers, and he is really a general. In the past, when Cao Gong asked me what position I was willing to take, I said that I was willing to be a soldier under the account of Captain Cao, so that I could appreciate the teachings of Captain Cao day and night. Being able to follow the side of a soldier and do nothing, even if he doesn't do anything, is to listen to how the captain holds military discussions and gives military orders all day long, and you can benefit a lot. This is the teaching of a master like the school captain. ”

After speaking, Gao Tanglong finally bowed deeply to Cao Ren.

As soon as these words came out, the other generals standing on the edge of Gao Tanglong all looked at him with complexity.

This high hall is not only a good name, but also wakes up to the way of being an official earlier than others. If they had half of Gao Tanglong's strength back then, they wouldn't have wasted it now.

Pao Ze was silent, in fact, Cao Ren was also speechless.

Didn't he think there was anything wrong with Gao Tanglong saying this? What could be the problem? This kid obviously understands his military orders very deeply.

And Cao Ren didn't think that Gao Tanglong was a flattering villain, he still knew this person.

Cao Cao once told him that Gao Tanglong is the most respectful and humble person, and he must be treated with respect. As long as this is done, this Gao Tang Long will definitely be beneficial to him.

And now Cao Ren is satisfied to find out that there are no other benefits for the time being, but what Guang Gao Tang Long said by his side made him feel extremely satisfied.

Who says emotional value isn't value?

It's just that when Cao Ren was satisfied, Cao Chun below scoffed, but he snorted and stopped talking.

Because at this time, the ant army used to fill the ravine has already begun to run.

The food of these people is not good, and those people in the Plains Army obviously don't care about these swept Dingkou. So even if they wanted to finish the death race as soon as possible, there were still a lot of footsteps that fell to the ground.

And this one never got back up again.

These ant soldiers carrying dirt bags are running in a panic, how can they care that there is a big living person under their feet?

At this time, the Cao Jun officers behind shouted one after another:

"Bring back the sack."

But how could these ant soldiers secreted by adrenal hormones still hear these words, and when they arrived at the ravine, they directly mixed the sack with soil and piled it inside.

After completing the task, they let out a long breath and ran back with gritted teeth.

But when they returned, a rain of arrows awaited them.

They didn't understand, crying dad and calling mother, but the Cao Jun officer on the opposite side just replied coldly:

"Whoever throws the sack, die!"

Isn't it just a sack? More important than human life? Yes, at least more than these ant armies. The ant army is a consumable, but the sack can be reused.

The people who withdrew were also deaf and discerning, and poured the earth into the ravine, and then brought the sacks down.

When they withdrew, they were all scattered and panting.

At this time, when they saw Cao Jun's officials going straight here with knives, they were subconsciously frightened and wanted to run, but they had no strength for a long time, so they could only kneel on the ground and kowtow:

"Okay, okay, I really can't run, I don't dare to rest."

But what was waiting for them was not Cao Jun's long knife, but a bamboo chip.

Listen to the sermon of the Cao army:

"Every time you come back, you will have a bamboo chip, and if you take three of them, you will ask us to change them. Then you can retreat. ”

The result of escaping death made these ant annexes cheer and loudly praised Cao Jun for his exquisiteness.

After resting for a while, these people took the initiative to stand up and pick up the filled dirt bag and rushed up again.

People keep falling, and then their bamboo chips are naturally picked up by the people behind.

Xiaomin is also wise, after all, the heroes of the Cao army did not say that the chips they picked up did not count.

But you can find that many of the ant annexes have actually dragged four or five chips in their hands, but they still don't know how to withdraw them. Without him, it is because they do not know how to count.

Lamentable!

……

From the perspective of the ant army, they are experiencing the extreme speed of life and death, but this scene is not the same thing when it is changed to Cao Jun's vision.

At this time, Cao Chun looked at the ant army filling the gully suspiciously, and said uncertainly:

"Could it be that the arrows of the Tarzan army have run out? Why not? ”

A general on the side replied uncertainly:

"Maybe I think it's a waste to use it on these ant armies."

But there are others who refute:

"No matter how wasteful you feel, you won't let these people fill the ravines. Isn't that the right thing for our military to do? ”

Then the group stopped talking.

On the chariot, Cao Ren was also very puzzled, of course he would not think that this was the benevolence of any woman in the Taishan Army, for fear of hurting these Dingkou.

If the Taishan Army had been clamped down so easily, it would not have come to this point.

But for other reasons, Cao Ren couldn't think of it, he waved his hand:

"Forget it, let's look back, at least now we have indeed defeated our army."

So, a cadre of Cao army generals continued to look here.

Time passed little by little, and the ravines in front of Cao Jun were filled in one after another.

It wasn't until the last ravine was filled that the entire ant army cheered.

People need a sense of value, especially for those who are always black and white in life, any little success can make their life full of meaning.

Seeing the cheers of the ant army, Cao Ren was also very happy.

But his joy was not long in coming, when suddenly a dull drum beat sounded from the camp of the Taishan army.

Cao Ren was shocked, but before he could give the order, he saw that the Taishan army had suddenly overthrown the outer breastwork.

Overthrown?

These breastworks were not deeply rooted at all, and these Taishan troops had taken the initiative to attack from the beginning.

Cao Ren shouted in his heart:

"How dare they? How dare you? ”

In fact, the Taishan army not only dared, but also did so.

When the Taishan army overthrew the breastwork wall that was covered, they were already lined up in the camp, and rushed towards the Cao army directly under the leadership of Wang Dang and Zhang Suo.

Cao Jun was defenseless at all, and even some of the battalion leaders in front of him were still sitting on the ground to save their physical strength.

Yes, the Tarzan army shrank like a turtle, and no one could have imagined that they would take the initiative to leave the barrier and attack.

Looking at the murderous aura on the other side, Cao Ren shouted:

"Let Lu Yan take his ministry to the top."

Lü Yan was a fierce general of Xu Chu's army, and he was selected by Cao Ren as the trapping army in this battle, so he still kept the formation.

But it was too late.

Wang Dang and Zhang Suohui had already formed the two awls into a left and right awl, and directly chiseled them into the ranks of the Han army without any formation.

Among them, Zhang was the most ferocious, and directly rushed to the front line with fifty soldiers.

Zhang Suo's Zuotun general is a veteran, and he has tried to persuade Zhang Suo to retreat to the back several times. But even though the general repeatedly persuaded him two or three times, Zhang Suo still did not stop.

But the results of the battle have also expanded rapidly.

The growing unrest began to spread to Cao's army, and some of their troops took up arms and prepared for battle under the orders of their generals, while others retreated in panic due to the lack of commanders.

The front blocked the back, the back blocked the front, and the entire military road was jammed and chaotic.

But Zhang's situation is not much better.

After leading the vanguard to rush through a rout, he was suddenly counterattacked by a group of fifteen or sixteen armored soldiers.

This armor soldier is obviously the elite of a certain Cao army, and even when he is resting, he has not removed his armor.

This enemy force was very good at fighting and dealt a fatal blow to Zhang's army. Among them, He Li, the general who carried the battle flag for Zhang Suo, and was also Zhang Suo's friend He Li, died directly in battle.

Even Zhang Suo was in danger, a soldier who used a giant sword directly knocked Zhang Suo's palate guard flying, if it weren't for the basin collar armor Zhang Suo was wearing, which could block the neck, the blow just now could kill Zhang Suo.

But even so, Jang So-so's face was left with a scar.

When the enemy soldier saw Zhang Suo's appearance, he knew that he was the enemy's commander, so he did not hesitate to use his hands to ask for Zhang Suo's life.

This armor soldier is from Xu Chu's swordsman group, and his swordsmanship is very exquisite, although Zhang Suo also has a martial arts, but he is not as good as this person.

Just as Zhang was about to die, a majestic and tall armor soldier intervened.

This person is Han Gang.

This soldier, who has been in the army since Zhang Chongxue, has grown into an excellent Taishan military officer.

Han Gang was a wandering official of Zhang's department, and when he saw that his own department was in danger, he rode directly on a war horse and rushed over.

The swordsman on the opposite side didn't see Han Gang at all, so he was directly knocked away by the war horse.

The person was not dead for a while, but he was lying on the ground dizzy, but Zhang Suo changed three steps to two steps, ran to him, drew a short dagger and stabbed the man in the neck.

After defeating another Cao army, Zhang Suo joined Wang Dang on the other side.

At this time, Wang Dang was also covered in blood, and even his own camp flag was only three feet high because it was cut down several times and recaptured several times.

After the two departments converged, after a rough calculation, there were still about 200 people in Wangdang, and there were more than 100 people in Zhangsuo.

The two have been attacked since last night, and the number of people together can't make up one.

However, just as the two divisions were resting in this position, twenty or thirty more people rushed behind them, and they were scattered.

Zhang Suo picked up the water bag and was about to drink it, when he saw that the bag had leaked, and the water had almost spilled.

He could only sip the rest of the water bag and moisten his parched lips slightly.

By this point, both he and Wang Dang's side were already very tired, but as long as they saw the results they achieved, it was worth it.

At this time, the dust was flying, and there were corpses lying on the ground everywhere, although the smoke and dust were too big to see clearly, but who else could it be if it wasn't a Han soldier?

The dust was getting bigger and bigger, and it was no longer possible to see the battlefield clearly, so Zhang Suo and Wang Dang discussed and chose to stay where they were to rest.

In fact, they had already made up their minds to die when they left the camp this time, and they were calm and calm at the moment.

But half an hour later, they still did not encounter a counterattack from the Han army.

When the gale passed, they found that they were left on an empty battlefield, and Cao's army was completely evacuated.

……

In the following days, the Cao and Shen armies, which had been completely determined that Guan Yu's troops had no support, attacked the Pingyuanjin defense line again.

Then around the outer walls of Pingyuanjin, the two armies launched a bloody offensive and defensive battle.

Ding Sheng had already dispatched the last 5,000 troops from the west bank to the east bank, but even so, he still lost the front of the east slope.

Because of the large number of troops, the Han army chose a rematch, attacking in turn during the day and attacking at night.

By the 10th of July, Ding Sheng had abandoned all the outer barriers of Pingyuanjin and reduced all his forces to the inner camp.

And over there, Cao Cao also dispatched Le'an's sailors. A crew of thirty sailors with twin sails was already slowly approaching downstream.

Everything is moving in favor of Cao Jun.

Until a letter from Dongpingling arrived at Cao Cao's camp, Cao Cao still couldn't believe it.

"You said Licheng was lost?"
