Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 394 The stalemate at Guandu, where are the variables?

Han Meng led his army to chase Chen Dao all the way, but suddenly he heard the sound of killing around him.

Knowing that he was in an ambush, Han Meng intended to order the army to turn around and withdraw from the encirclement site, but the road in the mountain is narrow, so it is not possible to turn around just by turning around.

Yuan Jun, who was at the back, suddenly saw the people in front turning around and running towards him. Before they could figure out the situation, they collided with the soldiers turning back before they could react.

Cao Jun's ambush soldiers on the mountain took the opportunity to greet Yuan Jun with bows and arrows, and rolling stones kept greeting Yuan Jun; Cao Jun who came out of the woods also rushed out, serving them with bows, arrows and spears.

Yuan Jun's rear army and the former middle army huddled together, unable to retreat, unable to advance, and became a living target for Cao Jun for a while, and a large number of people fell down in an instant.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Han Meng led his personal guards and turned around to kill him, trying to buy time for his army to retreat.

This forward charge instead made Cao Jun cast a wary weapon, afraid of hurting his own people, so he didn't dare to shoot arrows at them.

The hundreds of rebels led by Chen Dao first fought against Han Meng. He had no idea that under such circumstances, Han Meng still had a very strong combat power.

Han Meng's moves were fierce, extremely brave, and his offensive was unstoppable. Chen Dao just fought him for less than three rounds, and he was almost beaten to pieces by Han Meng!

Fortunately, Wei Yan, who led the army to ambush, came in time when he saw the general Yuan Jun. When Chen Dao was about to be killed, he rescued Chen Dao with the method of attacking the enemy and saving him.

Han Meng was ruined by a good thing, and suddenly became furious, turning over and killing Wei Yan with a pipa hammer in his hand!
Wei Yan leaned over to avoid the sledgehammer, and then raised his knife to fight with Han Meng.

But even Wei Yan was amazed by Han Meng's bravery,

"This man is so brave! If the two armies face each other head-on on the plain, even I might not be able to predict the outcome!

This person must be Yuan Shao's general, don't let him go easily! "

Thinking of this, Wei Yan cheered up and concentrated on fighting.

Although Han Meng was brave, he was only a second-rate general. It was just because of his special weapons and great strength that it was hard for him to get used to at first.

And Wei Yan is a first-class peak, and has received advice from famous experts. After the two battled to the [-]th or [-]th round, Han Meng gradually began to fall into the disadvantaged.

Most of the people who use the double hammer are powerful generals. They can often smash the enemy's skull in the first few rounds by relying on the power of heavy weapons and their own strength.

But this heavy weapon is doomed not to last.

Seeing through Han Meng's weakness, Wei Yan was not in a hurry, and slowly wrestled with him.

Finally, after thirty rounds, Han Meng was exhausted and his moves began to deform.

The more Han Meng fought, the more frightened he became. He was also amazed by General Cao's bravery, and thought to himself:

"How can a Cao general who ran out casually be able to defeat me? And the doll just now was able to fight me three times. Could it be that the brave generals in Cao's camp have overflowed to such an extent?"

Yuan Jun was retreating steadily at this moment, the front army wanted to retreat, but was blocked by the rear army.

In the great terror of life and death, some people raised their butcher knives towards their robes
Yuan Jun drew his sword and slashed at the robes of the rear army. Seeing that the situation was not good, the soldiers of the rear army finally turned around and fled.

After the rear army was overwhelmed by the former central army, Yuan Jun's soldiers finally opened up the way to retreat, but perhaps less than half of the [-] troops could escape in the end.

Han Meng looked back and saw that the way to retreat had been cleared, and he couldn't waste his life with General Cao any longer.
Han Meng saw the right time, deliberately sold a loophole, and forced Wei Yan to retreat with the injury-for-injury style of play.

Wei Yan didn't want to fight with the opponent to lose both sides, so he had to retreat temporarily as a last resort.

Han Meng got the chance and immediately left the battle, then turned his horse and fled all the way without looking back.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

Han Meng shouted while running, relying on his horse, he quickly overtook the fleeing infantry and ran to the front of the rout.

Cao Jun chased and killed all the way, and did not stop until he reached the mountain fire.

Yuan Jun could rush through the fire without hesitation, but Cao Jun couldn't afford to use his life to claim the military exploits, and he still had to fight when he arrived at Guandu.

Chen Dao looked at the growing mountain fire and said to Wei Yan, "Unfortunately, the mountain fire blocked our pursuit and failed to take the head of General Yuan."

Wei Yan shook his head and said: "Then General Yuan is also a brave man, it is not so easy to kill him."

Looking at the blazing fire again, Wei Yan sighed: "Forget it. The fire won't stop for a few days. Let's leave Jiluo Mountain for now, rest and wait for the fire to stop before heading to Guandu. "

Chen Dao naturally had no objection, and replied: "It's all up to the general!"

Guandu, outside Cao Jun's city wall.

Although Yuan Shaojun's siege equipment was destroyed by Cao Jun's catapult, after all, they had plenty of people, and it only took two or three days to rebuild the siege equipment they needed.

It is estimated that Cao Jun has a powerful catapult,

Yuan Shao did not build more wells, but focused on building scull carts, and also tried to make some trebuchets.

What made Yuan Shao angry was that,
The catapult built by his own craftsmen was far behind Cao Cao's catapult in terms of range, accuracy, and weight of the catapult. Yuan Shao finally had to give up his plan to build a catapult and shoot with Cao Cao.

Yuan Shao reinforced the scull cart and enlarged and thickened the shield, so that Cao Jun's catapults could no longer destroy the scull cart.

Yuan Jun hid behind the scull cart and came to attack the city at a fixed point every day, which made Cao Jun extremely uncomfortable.

On the city wall, it happened to be the turn to be on duty today.

He took the three brothers Tai Shici, Dian Wei, and Liu Guanzhang, and led more than ten thousand people to resist Yuan Jun's attack.

Everyone knew that the Guandu battlefield would probably be a protracted battle.

Before Yuan Jun's soldiers crossed the moat, Cao Jun stopped shooting arrows, because even if they shot arrows, most of the arrows were shot on shields and scull carts.The stone bombs of the trebuchet are not so easy to find, the surrounding stones have been dropped, and if you want to find it, you can only transport it from a farther place.Therefore, Cao Jun is saving the materials for defending the city as much as possible, and is preparing for a long-term battle.

Zhang Fei swept the two soldiers of Yuan Jun who jumped out of the city wall with a spear, and muttered: "It's really endless."

Holding a sword, Liu Bei stabbed to death a Yuan soldier who was trying to climb over the female wall. He came to Zhang Fei and said, "Third brother, didn't you really want to fight before, why are you complaining now?"

"I want to capture the flag like the second brother, instead of playing gophers here every day."

Liu Bei: "."

After Guan Yu cleaned up his defensive area, he came to Zhang Fei and Liu Bei to support him, and happened to hear the conversation between Zhang Fei and Liu Bei.

So, he said: "At least for now, Yuan Jun has no flaws. We may have to defend for a long time."

Liu Bei nodded, and said, "That's right, Guandu has become a stalemate here, and I'm afraid we need to look for variables elsewhere."

Under the city wall, Gao Lan said to himself: "Cao Jun's defense is still flawless, but our army still has to continue to attack with human lives."

"I hope the Digger Army of the military division can succeed." Seeing that the siege soldiers were driven off the top of the city again, Gao Lan had no choice but to shout: "Retreat!"
