Except for the king of Shang, who speaks business, normal people will not use cavalry to attack the city.

Zhang He was only able to drive two or three thousand captives and return to Dong Huang.

Dong Huang, who watched the whole battle, was not disappointed that Zhang He was unable to capture the city gate.

Dong Huang actually knew very well that there was only one chance to take the opportunity to capture Yecheng, and that was that Zhang Ji was able to break the city unexpectedly that night.

As a result, Zhang Ji not only failed to break the city, but also died in a stream.

Dong Huang can only sigh and die.

Zhang Ji in history died in the middle of a stray arrow, but he didn't expect that Zhang Ji in this world would also die under a stray arrow!

"That's the trial trial who ambushed and killed Zhang Ji, right? The army is encamped and besieged! Today, day and night, let the Jizhou captives shout and persuade them to surrender, and drive the Jizhou captives to attack the city early tomorrow morning! ”

Dong Huang glanced at the scribes at the head of the city from afar and ordered.

Dong Huang decided to use a strategy to attack the heart.

This time it was not Jia Xu's suggestion, but Dong Huang's own idea.

In the era of cold weapons, the best way to deal with the fortified city is to attack the heart and let the fortress break through from the inside! This is the most time-saving and labor-saving way to reduce casualties!

In history, the trial and defense of Yecheng is still very famous, if it is not betrayed by a traitor, Cao Cao may not be able to capture Yecheng!

Today's situation is different from history.

Today's Yecheng defense is worse, the army is weaker, the morale is lower, and the possibility of rebelling against more traitors by attacking the heart is higher!

People are greedy for life and fear death, when it is really time to decide the life and death of themselves and their families, how many people will be willing to fight to the death for a so-called lord who escaped alone?

Dong Huang is very confident in his plan.

Standing on the castle tower, the judge didn't know what was waiting for him! At this time, he was about to be angry with Liu Pan!

In order to boost the morale of the army, before Liu Pan went to war, the trial specially invited some powerful figures and patriarchs of big families in Yecheng to watch the battle, hoping that Liu Pan could really win, so as to give these people a certain amount of confidence!

However, the truth slapped the face of the judge.

Looking at the powerful figures in Yecheng whose faces had changed miserably, the trial could only understand them with reason and emotion: "Everyone, Dong Zhongying is brutal and unkind, causing trouble to the court and oppressing the people; His nephew Dong Baijie is even more brutal and lustful, once he enters Yecheng, he must be ruined! At that time, it will be difficult for your family to avoid the fate of men being slaughtered and women becoming playthings! ”

The trial is half a warning and half a statement of facts.

Dong Jiajun's notoriety has already spread all over the country, no matter how black it is, it can't be overstated!

Looking at the uncertain gazes of these powerful people in Yecheng under their own deception, the judge breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that these cowards had listened.

"For the sake of the world, for the people of Yecheng, and for everyone's own net worth and lives, we will never allow Dong Huang's army to attack the city! Dong Huangjun came from afar, and the road behind him is not quiet, and it will not last! And Liu Jizhou has already rebelled against Dong Zhuojun's general Lu Bu, and formed an alliance with Gongsun Chan and others, as long as everyone sticks to the time, reinforcements will come soon! ”

"Don't you hear about the battle of Kunyang, Emperor Guangwu?"

In the end, the interrogator aggravated the tone and struck while the iron was hot.

I don't know if Lu Bu has really fallen, and I'm not sure if Gongsun Chan and the others will come back, but the matter has come to this point, and I can only deceive one day at a time!

The reason why the trial is so hard to defend the city is not to repay Liu Biao's kindness. In fact, he and Liu Biao have not met a few times. He did this, firstly, for the sake of the full name festival, and secondly, the butt decided the head, and he was very unkind to the Liangzhou barbarians of the Dong family; The third is that he wants to prove his ability, and he wants to be a person who supports the building and collapses.

In the opinion of the trial, although Liu Pan was defeated with the main force, if he could gather the private soldiers of the big families in Yecheng, it would not be a problem to gather another 20,000 people! And the unified use of all the private soldiers can not only prevent some ill-intentioned families from surrendering to Dong Zhuo, but also make up for the lack of troops to a certain extent, and win time for Liu Biao to prepare reinforcements.

However, it is still too naïve to have not experienced the trial of the real war!

When Dong Huangjun drove tens of thousands of prisoners captured by Chaoge to Yecheng City to shout, Yecheng suddenly fell into a huge panic, and the little courage that the wealthy family had just been aroused by the trial also disappeared.

At this time, the defenders of Yecheng finally remembered Dong Huang's prestige!

It's not a battle of the same level at all!

Some people of insight also began to slander: "Liu Xiu personally participated in the battle of Kunyang, where is Liu Biao now?" ”

The people in Yecheng were panicked.

Outside Yecheng, Chao Ge desperately promoted Dong Huangjun's policy: within three days, the surrenderer's family did not commit any crime; If no one surrenders within three days, all the men will be killed and all the women will be used as military prostitutes under the breach!

Dong Huang also made a list of the number one families in Yecheng with the help of Zhen Yan, and directly threatened these families!

Of course, the trial also realized Dong Huang's sinister intentions, accelerated the pace of integrating the army in the city, and replaced many generals who did not look so reassuring with his family's generals.

On the first day, under the high pressure of the trial, no one in Yecheng went out of the city to surrender.

In this regard, Dong Huang did not feel lost, but drove the captives to start a tentative siege of the city.

The day's assault, in which the captives were killed and wounded thousands, filled several trenches, and filled a wide road over the moat.

Although the garrison successfully held the city, the situation was not much better than that of the captives coerced by Dong Huang, and this group of untrained rabble with different intentions did not give full play to the advantages of the defenders, but there were deserters.

Although the trial match barely defeated the besieging troops with strong suppression, the trial also knew that he might not be able to hold out for long!

The trial has already regretted his stubbornness, but when it comes to this, he can't bow his head and worship, right? He wants to save face when he interrogates someone.

The trial still wants to die, but the wealthy family in Yecheng already hates the trial: You judge someone who wants to be a loyal minister, why let us die!

However, to make them surrender in a desperate way, they also have concerns! They were not only afraid that Dong Zhuo would be liquidated after losing power in the future, but also that they would not be able to maintain their position or even be slaughtered after surrendering.

In short, it is the kind of psychology that wants benefits but is not willing to take risks.

However, not everyone is looking ahead here, and if there is one person who surrenders, he is very resolute!

This person's name is Jurong , and he is the nephew of the lord of the city guard!
