Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2400 No Choice
Chang Xi is the prefect of Donghai County and the parent official of this place.

There are many varieties of parent officials.

It's like parents who have broken their hearts for their children, worked hard, and squeezed out the last drop of bone marrow to nourish their children. Of course, there are also those who are high above them all day long, pointing fingers, scolding those who are light, and beating and scolding those who are serious, expressing that it is a big deal. Yes, and then open another small type.

In reality, there are many forms of blood-related parents, both good and bad, so how can we guarantee that the "parents" who are only falsely called "parents" will adopt an attitude towards the weaker "children"?
Obviously, no one can guarantee.

Even in the same country, in different counties, the experience of the people will not be the same.

In the process of taking office as a parent official, will these people understand what caused their hardships in life?They don't know at all, and they don't think that sometimes it is the political game above that leads to the occurrence of certain events, and makes their lives wasted in an inconspicuous place.

It's like being in Tan County.

Under the not-so-high city walls, all kinds of damaged siege and defense equipment were scattered everywhere.Beside these broken wooden boards and stakes, there are corpses that have been soaked in the rain and are somewhat whitish.Under the city wall, there are gaps dug everywhere, like the holes of groundhogs.

There are several ways to attack the city wall, and Zang Ba chose the stupid one. On the one hand, it is because Zang Ba’s subordinates are not elite soldiers and can master many complex tactical changes. On the other hand, are they stupid? The method will of course take more effort...

After all, sometimes, stupid ways can make people look like they are very diligent.

There is no credit, there is hard work, isn't it?
Especially the holes that were dug out at the root of the city wall are enough to prove Zang Ba's "merit" in attacking Tan County.But when this "merit" is not necessarily what others want, it has become a "laughing stock" from "merit".

Zang Ba's subordinates were covered in mud, rain, blood, and retreated in embarrassment. On the high ground of the mound, those soldiers of Cao Jun poked their heads out to look at them, and then they didn't know who said something, which immediately caused a burst of excitement. The roar of laughter is like the crowd standing around the monkey mountain in later generations, staring at the monkeys passing under the monkey mountain.

"Hey!Look at that red ass! 』

These soldiers of Cao's army are naturally the trusted soldiers and horses under Cao Cao's direct subordinates, who are responsible for holding the formation.

Compared with Zang Ba's soldiers, the soldiers directly under Cao Cao are of course better equipped, with more sophisticated equipment, sharper knives and guns, and more armor. Simply put, they are a group of soldiers wearing clothes and armor. A group of people without clothes and armor laughed.

"what!There's a black ass over there! 』

"Oh haha……"

so happy.

On the slope of the highland, there is an army formation surrounded by cloth curtains.In the army formation, there are guards of Cao Jun, who are extremely strong in coir raincoats.These personal guards who belonged directly to Cao Cao looked coldly at Zang Ba's soldiers struggling in the muddy water, as if they were looking at a stone, without any emotion.

Cao Cao was sitting under the veil of the Chinese Army. Although the rain was pattering, the surrounding area was relatively dry. He was sitting on a wooden stool with a slight smile on his face, as if he hadn't done it this time. Not to come to fight, but to go hiking and picnic.

Changxi rebelled, and Zang Ba sent his army to besiege the city and attack.

Seeing Zang Ba making a siege posture, Cao Cao was not impatient at all, and even advised Zang Ba to lead people to enlist all the people in the vicinity to join the army, and all the villages and cities around Tan County were robbed. Looting, everything that cannot be taken away is burned...

As a result, Donghai County, especially around Tan County, suddenly became a purgatory on earth!
Zang Ba's subordinates were not without discussions, but in fact, ordinary soldiers did not know Cao Cao's intentions, but after the big hats were pressed down, Zang Ba had to lower his head, pinch his nose, and tuck his tail Follow Cao Cao's "suggestion" and walk step by step into the abyss.

At least follow Cao Cao's "suggestion" to do it, and you can delay it a little bit, but if you don't do it, you will die faster!
Zang Ba suspected that Cao Cao had already seen everything he had done.Zang Ba even felt that Cao Cao might have already thought about it when he set off, and he never wanted to see a Taishan army that was swinging in the middle and might pose a threat...

Even if it turns the East China Sea into a blank land!
But where there are people, there is land. How many lands can withstand such burning?What kind of plans does this General Cao have?Even if Chang Xi was killed, the East China Sea would definitely be over, and then what ability would there be to defend Jiangdong in such an area?Could it be that even Jiangdong doesn't matter anymore?
Zang Ba deliberately delayed from the beginning, and then Cao Cao's "suggestion" step by step made him have to speed up the intensity of the attack, and it rained again...

This made Zang Ba really want to vomit blood.

Attacking the city in the rain is obviously more disadvantageous for the attacking party, but they can't stop, so that now, even Zang Ba doesn't know how many Taishan troops will be filled in this Tan County!

Zang Ba's face turned blue.

In the canopy behind Zang Ba, dozens of Zang Ba soldiers with decadent expressions were maintaining order inside and outside the shed. Winding out, like red snakes crawling on the ground.

There is no way to treat serious injuries, and there is no good treatment for minor injuries, but you can't let them be placed next to uninjured soldiers, which will lead to the collapse of the originally not very strong military spirit.

Moans continued to come from behind.

The soldiers who had a fever due to wound infection, even in their drowsiness, were moaning uncomfortably, and some were calling for their mother...

Zang Ba didn't need to look back to see clearly that his subordinates, even if they were slightly injured, were able to survive [-] out of [-] under such weather, which was considered luck.

The rain seems to be trying hard to wash away the evils of the world, but the whitened corpses, like a mountain of ironclad evidence, are fixed in the mud, unmoving.

From the city gate to the trench, from the trench to the barracks, there are corpses at almost every step.Some of these corpses were tidied up, but most of them didn't have time, or didn't have the intention to tidy up, so they let these corpses lie on the ground in muddy water!
"General Zang! ”A messenger of Cao Jun stomped on the red snake-like liquid crawling on the ground, and said, “Please, General! 』

Zang Ba focused slightly, "Got it..."

Cao Jun's messenger didn't say much, he turned around and left, as if he would suffer some bad luck if he stayed for a long time.

"General..." Zang Ba's confidant guard was somewhat worried.

"..." Zang Ba pondered for a moment, waved his hands and said, "It's okay, let's see if there are any other medicines and bandages, and bring some more for my brother... Come here as soon as you go..." Cao Cao will not do anything to him now.At this level, verbal criticism and reprimands are meaningless. If you want to do something, it will be a difference between life and death.

"I've seen the general! 』

"Xuan Gao..." Sure enough, Cao Cao smiled, as if he was very satisfied with Zang Ba's battle, "Come on, sit down!"Sit first! 』

Standing up, the sight line is much worse, but it is almost the same when sitting down.

"I don't know if the general will call you here..." Zang Ba sat down, "What order do you have? 』

"Hahahaha..." Cao Cao smiled, "It's nothing serious... Haha, I just want to ask Xuan Gao how he is, are you tired?"Can you still hold on? 』

This problem, if it is in the workplace of future generations, it is not easy to say whether it can or cannot be done casually, let alone in the present?

Cao Cao smiled, like a big boss full of affinity.

Zang Ba had a stiff smile on his face, like a project manager who couldn't complete the task but had to report.

At such a moment, it seems that there are several options, but in fact...

If the answer is "yes", you can continue to hold on, which means that Zang Ba will continue to invest his soldiers in the siege, and continue the siege like a meat grinder!

Then answer "no", since you can't, then let Cao Cao take command, isn't it normal?So once Cao Cao takes over the command, is it equivalent to depriving Zang Ba of his military power?Even after this battle is over, those soldiers except Zang Ba's headquarters will naturally become Cao Cao's subordinates...

Answering "I don't know if it is possible", the result is still not too different from answering "No".After all, this is in the army. On the one hand, ambiguous answers will not be accepted by Cao Cao, and he will definitely be forced to choose whether he can or cannot. On the other hand, the time given is not enough. It doesn't matter about workplace tasks, but a decisive battle on the battlefield where people will die if they don't do it well!
Because it is not only the East China Sea that is fighting at the moment, Xiapi is also facing the Jiangdong Army. If the channel cannot be opened in Tan County, and the soldiers cannot reach Xiapi in one day, then it means that Xiapi will take an extra day. risk!

So what about answering "yes" and then secretly procrastinating?Just like what Zang Ba did before.

Seems to work.

This is the only way, but it can't be delayed for too long.After all, the people around Tanxian County have basically been wiped out, and they have been exhausted. No matter how much delay there is, it will also consume Zang Ba's troops.

Unless the spring rain becomes heavier and changes from drizzle to heavy rain, then the offensive can naturally be stopped.

Such things as weather cannot be controlled by manpower, so no matter how you say it, you can't push Zang Ba's responsibility, but who knows how long this rain will last?

Once the spring rain stops, I believe Lao Cao will immediately force Zang Ba to fulfill his promise. After all, this is not the workplace of later generations. If subordinates fail to complete the task and beat and scold the police, this is in the Han army. If Zang Ba talks nonsense, If the promise is not fulfilled, Cao Cao can use it to march!
If Zang Ba makes a big deal and resigns, I will quit. If I don’t stay here, I will stay in my place. Hehe, if Zang Ba really does this, Cao Cao must be laughing.

As I said before, there is a water on the left and right of Tanxian County, Yishui Mushui is blocked on the left and right, Tanxian County is blocked in the front, and Cao Cao's army is blocked in the back!Zang Ba blocked Chang Xi, and Lao Cao blocked Zang Ba!

What Cao Cao hopes most is that the Taishan army falls apart, and if Zang Ba does this, it means that the Taishan army is really finished. Zang Ba himself may be able to save his life for a while, just like Xu You, but he will definitely not live for long .

Zang Ba raised his hand to surrender, and Chang Xi would surely die. Yin Li was under the control of Man Chong, and Sun Guan and Wu Dun, who were the only ones left outside, would not be able to last long!
So at the moment, as long as Zang Ba spits out "I can't" or "I don't know if I can", the fate of the Taishan Army will be clearly visible immediately!
By that time, can Zang Ba still maintain his position in the Taishan Army?Oh, you yourself have given the command of the army to Lao Cao, why are you clamoring for us to oppose Lao Cao and become self-reliant?Are you making wool? !
Then Zang Ba can express that he was just confused for a while, and then tell Lao Cao that he chose the wrong one at that time, and slapstick in the office, saying that if Lao Cao does not return the troops to him, he will die to show his ambition and want to fight from the top of Mount Tai. Jump down?

Ha ha……

"Don't worry, General! Zang Ba could only grit his teeth and say, "Now it's raining continuously for days, so the city can have a chance to breathe. If the rain stops, it will be..."

Zang Ba said nothing, but suddenly he was stunned as if he had been casted with a body-holding technique.

Cao Cao looked into the distance, then looked left and right, laughed twice, and looked at Zang Ba with some playfulness in his eyes, "Xuan Gao is really favored by God's will... Look, isn't it, The rain has stopped...」

Zang Ba swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty.

Is this a favorite?
This is a scam!
The sound of fighting and screaming sounded again.

After the rain stopped, it was natural to launch a new round of offensive.

Zang Ba was oppressed step by step by Lao Cao, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to attack.

The moat around the city of Tanxian County was filled up again where it was washed away by the rain. Naturally, these discarded siege equipment, sand bags, and corpses that died around the city were used.

On the newly filled passage, you will see some arms and feet protruding from the sand or puddles, and occasionally move in the air, as if the undead are trying to stand up again from the sand.

There are also some who don't know whose heads are floating in the muddy puddles. I don't know if they were trampled or for other reasons. These heads are like moldy beef balls. They can't tell the front and back, with dry and scattered hair Wrapped on the surface of the meat ball, from time to time because of the vibration around the passage, they collide with each other, and then rotate...

Under the attack, most of the blue bricks on the surface of the city wall in Tan County have been peeled off, exposing the rammed earth layer inside, and even collapsed in many places.The defenders in Tan County took advantage of the gap in the attack to repair the collapsed place with wooden fences, sand, bricks and stones, but this repair was still not strong enough.Surrounding the wooden fences at these collapsed places, the two sides fought the most fiercely, and the most people died. The surrounding soil turned into a purple-black color, like the sauce of braised pork, so thick that it could be drawn.

Standing on the city wall of Tan County, Chang Xi, just like his name, couldn't keep any rationality in his irritated mind, but angrily shouted at Zang Ba under the city: "Beast!"traitor!Scum!running dog!I'm right here!Kind of you come up!heads-up! 』

In fact, Chang Xi was also injured. Although it is said that he also wore armor, the armor is not omnipotent. It does not mean that wearing armor can ignore the damage. These wounds not only cannot restore Chang Xi's sanity, but also hurt and stimulate Chang Xi. Even more irritable and angry, like a wounded wild boar.

Therefore, this wild boar, Chang Xi, didn't seem to realize that Tan County had indeed reached its most critical moment!
The city walls of Tan County are already riddled with holes, and many generals and soldiers under Chang Xi suffered heavy casualties. The loyal soldiers who followed Chang Xi suffered heavy casualties. Even the people in Tan County were also in the midst of such a battle of defending the city. He couldn't escape, and was forced to participate in the defense. If he looked into the city at this time, it would be as devastated as the city wall of Tan County.

At this moment, Chang Xi's subordinates standing on the city wall are also injured. Although compared with Zang Ba's army outside the city, they have more conveniences to avoid rain in rainy days, but that's all!

In addition, the army outside the city, in addition to Zang Ba, also has Cao Jun!

In the distance, behind Zang Ba's army, there are countless soldiers of Cao's army, their heads are surging, their armor is cold, and there are many swords and guns. Qiqi's reply sounded, no matter in terms of fighting spirit or the level of elite soldiers, these Cao troops are obviously taller and stronger than Zang Ba's men!

So even if it can survive Zang Ba's attack, can it survive Cao Jun's attack?
Even if you can procrastinate one day, can you procrastinate the next day?

Although Chang Xi was shouting as hard as he could, trying to single out and boost the morale of the soldiers with his own bravery, it didn't do much. The faces of the surrounding guarding soldiers were still full of despair...

Chang Xi breathed heavily, then turned around, stood on the steps of the collapsed city gate, kicked half of a wooden stake into the air, and dropped it to the side, attracting the attention of the surrounding soldiers, roaring loudly Said: "The East China Sea is ours!"Tan County is ours!Brothers follow me and fight everywhere, if there is food and drink, I will share with you!If you have money and women, I will share them with you too!This East China Sea, this Tan County, is our last piece of land!To tell you the truth, I have already sent someone out to ask for help, and it will arrive soon!Brothers, if you fight to the death with me, I swear to the gods that I will share everything with you in the future! 』

"In such a chaotic world, you can either eat meat and drink, and be a superior person, or you can kick your legs and count on death!" ’Chang Xi yelled almost with all his strength, and he could even see the saliva spewed out in the air when he yelled, and scattered in the air, ‘I am here, Chang Xi, this county can’t be trapped!Our reinforcements are coming!When the time comes to fight out, we will win! 』

"We will definitely win! 』

Chang Xi said some decent words, which also slightly aroused the morale of the soldiers.The soldiers on the city wall looked left and right, and raised their swords and guns to Chang Xi one after another, expressing their determination to continue fighting with Chang Xi...

In fact, taking ten thousand steps back, they have no choice. Most of them belong to the soldiers under Chang Xi's command. Even if they surrender, even if they can survive, they will become the most low-level cannon fodder and die in the next battle. Inside, so, what good options can there be?

God likes it like this, it looks like there are one, two, three, four choices, you can choose which one, but in fact, when the real thing comes to an end, you will often find that there is no choice at all !
