After a long time, after Cao Ren commanded the defenders of the city wall and successfully repelled the first wave of tentative onslaught outside the city.

Thousands of barrels of cold well water have been transported to the city by a group of young and strong laborers.

Seeing the thousands of buckets of well water in front of him, Cao Ren breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and immediately ordered the soldiers to lift the buckets.

"The whole army obeyed the order, and they all brought me buckets and watered the city walls."

Seeing this scene from afar, Ye Baikui's brows furrowed, and he was slightly puzzled.

"General Lu, you are good at snow warfare, do you know why Cao Jun poured water on the city wall?"

Lu Shengxiang stretched out his hand to stroke his long hair, pursed his lips, and sighed a little tricky: "This Cao Ren is really worthy of being a general who guards the city." ”

"I can actually think of a way to pour water and ice to strengthen the city wall. In this way, it is difficult for these soldiers under our command to climb the ladder to the city wall. ”

"For today's plan, there are only two ways, the first way is for us to garrison outside the city, wait for the sky to clear and the ice and snow melt, and then go to attack the city."

"Another way is for us to rely on crowd tactics to force these surrendered captives to continue to storm the tower. Using their corpses, a staircase was piled up under the city that led to the city walls. ”

Ye Baikui hugged his fist slightly towards Lu Shengxiang, and exclaimed expressionlessly:

"General Lu, what a ruthless man! All right! As the general said, I will let the Euphorbia take those surrendered captives to attack the city. ”

Just as Ye Baikui was about to give an order.

On the endless skyline in the rear, an army suddenly broke through the snowstorm.

Ye Baikui and Lu Shengxiang raised their eyes and looked at each other, and their hearts were settled.

It turned out that Gao Yi had already led the rear army to arrive.

Now the two armies have converged.

There were nearly 30,000 foot riders.

If you storm a city gate with all your might.

The odds add a few points.

……

"Stomp, stomp!"

As the sound of the hooves of the snow tread approached.

Gao Yi had already driven his horse to Ye Baikui and the others.

At this time, he had already changed into a Confucian robe.

Wearing a full suit of Ugin battle armor, covered with animal skin cotton clothes, and covered with white robes to hunt in the wind, the helmet was tightly sealed, revealing only a pair of eyes, mouth and nose.

And the snow treading black horse on his crotch is also covered with a full set of horse armor, although it seems heavy, but because of the ingenious joint design, it is flexible and mobile.

When Gao Yi learned about the current battle situation.

A hint of hesitation flashed in his starry eyes.

If you use human life to pile up the stairs, although you can go directly to the head of Xuchang City.

But how many lives will it take to be a brick of meat to build this long ladder?

Five thousand corpses?

Obviously not enough.

At least a full ten thousand corpses are needed.

Or even more and more corpses.

It's not that Gao Yiyi is soft-hearted and unwilling to fill in the corpses of those surrendered captives.

It's just that after this battle, if Cao Cao led the army to kill, where would he still have enough soldiers to resist the large-scale attack of Cao's army?

If it doesn't work, those prisoners who have been bullied and oppressed suddenly come to the battlefield and turn against each other, wouldn't this be more than worth the loss.

"If you want to capture Xuchang City, there are actually more than these two ways, there is also a third way."

"It's just that I've never tried this method, so let's try this Xuchang City today!"

"Pass my military order, order all the cavalry to follow me straight to the city gates, and today I will show the world what is truly invincible."

Hearing this, Lu Shengxiang hesitated a little, glanced at Ye Baikui, bowed down, and persuaded: "The lord can't!" ”

"Now the city walls are covered with ice water, which is not conducive to cavalry siege at all!"

If in normal times.

Lu Shengxiang would take advantage of the cavalry's ultra-high mobility to run around the city and launch a rain of arrows on the enemy troops on the city walls.

By the way, one hundred and eighty horsemen will be selected to act as death squads, and the horses will rush wildly, using the power of the war horse's charge to crash into the city gate with an indomitable bang.

And so on and so forth, and so on, and again, until the gates were slammed.

But now, after Cao Ren poured a large amount of ice water on the city wall, the ice water flowed to the surrounding land.

As a result, the road surface around the city wall was slippery for hundreds of kilometers, and it was impossible to withstand the continuous running of a large number of war horses.

Therefore, Lu Shengxiang did not propose such a method.

Now that Gao Yi suddenly proposed to attack the city with cavalry, Lu Shengxiang felt a little unreliable in his heart.

Only then did he change his humble posture in the past, and he spoke out to dissuade him.

Gao Yi waved his hand and said with an arrogant smile: "A small city gate, how can it be allowed to resist the advance of our army." ”

"Go with Ben Hou, and you will be able to take the enemy city."

After that, Gao Yi didn't bother to continue to explain, knocked the horse's belly lightly, and stepped on the snow under his crotch to understand the master's mind.

In a split second.

There was a hiss, and the hooves were raised.

Swift like the wind, running to the gates.

The black jade-colored mane fluttered in the wind, in stark contrast to the white robe draped by Gao Yi, and the black and white reflected each other.

Seeing that Gao Yi had already stepped out of the halberd.

Lu Shengxiang and Ye Baikui didn't have time to speak, they hurriedly turned over their horses and shouted towards the rear military formation:

"All the cavalry obey the order and quickly cover the siege of the lord!"

"Those who are the first to enter the city will be given 100 women, a bounty of 1,000 taels, and 10,000 acres of fertile land."

Hearing this, the Xiliang Iron Riders, who were still a little sluggish, became high-spirited, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Soon, the 7,000 brave cavalry, composed of 3,000 Liyang light cavalry and 4,000 Xiliang iron cavalry, drew their swords and spears one after another.

Quick as a wink.

Seven thousand brave cavalry, forming a cone-shaped cavalry formation, rushed all the way to the city gate.

At this moment, Gao Yi had already commanded his halberd and gradually approached the gate of Xuchang.

When Cao Ren on the city tower heard that this person was Shouchunhou Gaoyi, he couldn't help but be overjoyed and ecstatic:

"Hahaha! It's really a good time to see the moon! It was actually a high thief who personally attacked the city, Brother Xiahou, I, Cao Ren, avenged this blood feud for you today. ”

"Archers listen to the order, release the arrows for me!"

"Hurry up and release the arrows! A reward of 10,000 for shooting a thief. ”

As soon as the military order came out.

The countless archers on the city wall immediately pulled their bows and strings, aiming Sen Sen's arrows at Gao Yi.

In the next moment, arrows rained down.

Gao Yi now has the combat power of the overlord, and he has also inherited the riding skills of the overlord, and the cooperation with the black horse under the crotch is simply seamless.

Face thousands of arrows that soar into the air.

Gao Yi just tugged on the horse's reins to the right, and the black horse under his crotch jumped up.

easily avoided this wave of arrow rain attack.

"Shoot me the arrows!"

"Keep firing the arrows!"

"Shoot the thief and get three levels higher."

Cao Ren's eyes were fiery, and he commanded the archers hoarsely, and they all fired arrows towards the place where Gao Yi was.
