On the city wall, in an instant, everyone held their breath.

Some of the women who had just come up carrying the boulders looked out of the city and fainted in fright!

The long sword raised high in Liu Bei's hand has not been put down.

There was no fear in his eyes, but some envy.

This is Cao Cao and Yuan Shao's reinforcements!

If one day, I can have such a strong army, why can't I level the world and help this great Han country?

The army is getting closer.

About five hundred paces from the city walls, the army stopped.

As far as the eye can see, the entire outside of the city is full of soldiers!

Not long after the army stopped, a neat roar rang out: "Let! ”

The entire army moved quickly to both sides, making way for an unobstructed avenue to come out.

When all movement fell silent again, the rear of the army, in the far distance, the sound of horses' hooves rang out.

Dozens of figures wearing iron armor and riding war horses approached.

At the forefront were the two.

The person on the right is a middle-aged man who is tall and has a shocking scar on his left cheek.

The middle-aged man holds the reins of a horse in his left hand and presses his sword on his waist with his right hand.

He was smiling at the moment, with a high-spirited look on his face.

The one on the left is noticeably much shorter.

He was talking to the middle-aged man on his right at the moment, his face calm and confident.

His eyes kept staring at the top of the city wall, staring at Liu Bei, who was holding his sword aloft.

The two of them stopped at the edge of the moat with several ironclad figures behind them.

Beside Lu Yi, Tian Yu pointed to the tall figure on the right and said, "He is Zhu Ling, the commander sent by Yuan Shao to aid Cao Cao." This time, he led nearly 30,000 reinforcements, all of whom were the elite Jizhou infantry. ”

He pointed to the figure on Zhu Ling's left and said, "This shorter one is Cao Cao." ”

On the city wall, most people saw Cao Cao for the first time.

Lu Yi too!

Unlike the image of Cao Cao in the various games and TV series he watched before he crossed over, this Cao Cao looked much more ordinary, far less tall.

Tian Yu saw that everyone seemed to be very nervous, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. Cao Cao is not so terrible, when Dong Zhuo was in charge of cholera, he and my eldest brother went to Peiguo to recruit troops and horses, and I had dinner with him at that time, that is, a very ordinary person. ”

"And he's been defeated many times."

"Even several times, I was almost killed."

"During the crusade against Dong Zhuo, he was once ambushed by Dong Zhuo's general Xu Rong, and the whole army was annihilated, leaving only him and his younger brother Cao Hong. If Cao Hong hadn't ceded his war horse to him and led the enemy away, he would have become a dry skeleton a long time ago. ”

When the people of the major families heard Tian Yu say this, their faces really looked a lot better.

Cao Cao looked up at Liu Bei and said loudly: "Xuande Gong, don't come unharmed!" ”

Liu Bei looked down at Cao Cao and replied, "Gong Cao, it's been a long time!" ”

After a pause, Liu Bei said, "Gong Cao, I have a word." ”

Cao Cao said: "If you surrender, everything is easy to say." Nothing else, no need to talk! ”

Liu Bei said: "Cao Gong, Ling Zun's death is really regrettable. But, the culprit has already been killed by you—"

Cao Cao waved his hand and interrupted Liu Bei's words: "I said, don't talk about the rest!" ”

"Xuande Gong, for the sake of you and I who once fought against Dong Zhuo together, I specially came to persuade you to open the door and surrender."

"If you open the door and surrender, I will only kill Tao Qian's old thief and his three clans."

"If you are stubborn, then when I break the city—"

Cao Cao's right index finger pointed at everyone on the city wall: "You, you, you, everyone, all have to die!" I will slaughter Tancheng and avenge my father!" ”

The people of the major families on the city wall all looked at Liu Bei with some fear.

Liu Bei squinted his eyes, looked down at Cao Cao and said, "Since that's the case, then there's nothing to say." ”

Cao Cao met Liu Bei's gaze and sneered: "Stubborn! ”

After speaking, he pulled the reins of the horse and rode away.

Zhu Ling and others followed.

When Cao Cao, Zhu Ling and the others withdrew to the rear of the army, a sharp horn sounded, soaring into the sky!

The army outside the city suddenly surged towards the moat!

On the city wall, some family members collapsed directly to the ground.

Cao Jun, the siege is on!

If you can't hold it, you'll all die here today!

Liu Bei was still holding his sword high, his eyes staring at the outside of the city.

In the army outside the city, dozens of teams carried ladders and quickly rushed to the edge of the moat, and put the ladder on top of the moat.

Dense soldiers like ants, carrying wooden shields, poured up the ladder!

Only then did Liu Bei put down his raised saber and roared, "Archer! Offensive! ”

On the city wall, the archers raised their bows and arrows in the air, and shot them at an oblique angle!

One row of archers finished shooting and quickly retreated, and the other row of archers quickly rushed up and raised their hands to shoot!

Feathered arrows rained down among the soldiers who crossed the ladder of the moat.

These soldiers have no armor! All dressed in cloth!

Rao was wearing shields, but they still couldn't block the attack of the feather arrows.

The screams were incessant.

Vast swaths of soldiers were shot and fell into the moat wailing.

But more soldiers rushed over the ladder as if they could not hear or see.

Rushing across the moat, they raised their shields high, forming a wall of shields!

The soldiers in the back carried the siege ladder and rushed through the shield wall and put the siege ladder on the wall.

"Archers back off!"

"Push the siege ladder team to make up!"

"Golden juice!"

"Boulder!"

Liu Bei kept walking back and forth on the city wall, roaring.

The archers quickly retreated.

A small group of soldiers, holding huge wooden forks, crossed towards the siege ladder.

Some of the siege ladders that had just been put up were directly overturned by the forks.

However, more siege ladders simply can't be pushed!

There are already people on the siege ladder!

The lower part is even more supported by soldiers!

Under the city walls, countless soldiers carried weapons and climbed up the siege ladder.

They were still halfway through the siege ladder, and huge boulders were falling down!

The head blossoms!

Flesh and blood!

Under the city, the follow-up soldiers seemed to be not afraid of death, trampling on the mountain of flesh and blood, and continued to climb the siege ladder.

This time, as the boulder fell, countless hot gold juices poured down on his head.

A miserable cry filled everyone's eardrums.

On the siege ladder, wave after wave of soldiers climbed up and fell down with teeth and claws.

The cycle went on and on for nearly half an hour.

Behind the army outside the city, Cao Cao looked at the mountains of corpses piled up under the city wall in the distance, frowned, and said to the herald beside him: "Mingjin withdraws the troops!" ”

Tancheng was clearly well prepared.

If you continue to attack like this, the city will not be broken, and your own soldiers and horses will be defeated!

These soldiers and horses were all transferred from Yanzhou, accounting for eighty percent of all his soldiers and horses!

If this is over, the battle for hegemony in the future will be extremely dangerous.

He didn't dare take that risk.
