Reborn in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 356 Breaking Ye City

text

Yuan Shao felt a bit of a headache, and his advisers were arguing endlessly about how to attack Dingtao. The advisers headed by Xu You and Guo Tu advocated an immediate attack on the grounds that since the emperor had handed over the governance of Qingzhou and Yanzhou to Yuan Shao, how could Yuan Shao do nothing?The opposition, represented by trial and distribution, advocates not attacking for the time being and waiting for changes.

The two factions have their own reasons, and Yuan Shao didn't know how to choose.

In the end, Yuan Shao decided to adopt the recommendation of the trial and match, and not to launch an attack on Dingtao for the time being.In Yuan Shao's heart, he had some scruples about the Zhengbei army behind him, he didn't want to lose too much power in his hands.

Yuan Shaojun stood still, Cao Cao was a little surprised by this, he came all the way to the big tent, why did he lie down when he arrived? [

"Feng Xiao, what the hell is Yuan Shao doing?" Cao Cao asked Guo Jia beside him suspiciously.

Guo Jia's complexion was much better than before, and he didn't cough like before.It seems that Zhang Zhongjing, the medical sage, is really not in vain.

Guo Jia pondered: "Yuan Shao's approach is indeed strange. I wonder if he wants to let Zhengbei Army fight us to the death, so that he can take advantage of it?"

"I'm afraid Yuan Shao doesn't have such resourcefulness!" Another counselor Xun Yu doubted.

Guo Jia looked at Xun Yu, "Although Yuan Shao doesn't have such resourcefulness, his counselors are still talented."

Cao Cao nodded slowly, "If Yuan Shao really intends to do so, it will be difficult for us! We can't afford it!"

He looked up at the counselors around him, hoping that they could offer advice.

The counselors fell silent, and everyone frowned.Cheng Yu finally broke the silence and said, "My lord, since Yuan Shao has such an idea, it means that he and Chen Chu have their own ghosts. Can we send envoys to persuade Yuan Shao?"

Cao Cao's eyes couldn't help but brighten up, and he said in his heart: That's right!If it can be said that Yuan Shao will withdraw from the army, that would be the best!

Immediately turned to look at Guo Jia, and asked rather eagerly: "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

Guo Jia thought for a while and replied: "What Zhongde said is a feasible strategy, but if you want to persuade Yuan Shao to retreat, I'm afraid it's impossible!"

All the people present here are highly resourceful people, after hearing what Guo Jia said, they understood the truth after thinking about it for a while.Yuan Shao raised his army because he had a plan. How could he retreat easily without getting any benefits, unless he had enough benefits to impress Yuan Shao.

Cao Cao smiled bitterly: "What Yuan Shao wants is not population and land, how can I give him these things?"

But Xun Yu said: "Sometimes it is necessary to give up something!"

Cao Cao nodded, and then said to Cheng Yu: "Zhongde, send an eloquent person to Yuan Shao's army to present his interests. Even if Yuan Shao can't be forced to retreat, he should try his best to keep Yuan Shao on hold!"

Cheng Yu clasped his fists to agree, and then begged for orders: "My lord, why don't I send the Yuan Shaojun as an envoy!"

"You?!" Cao Cao froze for a moment.At this time, Guo Jia who was on the side said: "Zhongde's talent is enough to take on this job, but..."

Guo Jia didn't finish what he said, but everyone understood what Guo Jia meant.It's just that this trip is quite dangerous.After all, the two armies were at war, if Yuan Shao killed Cheng Yu on impulse, Cheng Yu would really not have complained.

"Zhongde, how can I let you put yourself in danger? There is no need to discuss this matter again, I will never let you go to Yuan Shao as an envoy!" Cao Cao frowned, his tone was resolute. [

Cheng Yu couldn't help being moved, and his heart to serve Cao Cao became more determined.

Cheng Yu cupped his fists at Cao Cao, "My lord is a hero in the world, and it is a great honor for Yu to serve under the tent; my lord has a great favor for Yu, how can Yu not repay it; besides, this trip is of great importance, others may not be able to take on the job !My lord, don’t miss out on important things just to be the next person!”

Cheng Yu's last words moved Cao Cao. Although Cao Cao is a man of true temperament, he is also a decisive hero.

Cao Cao walked up to Cheng Yu, held Cheng Yu's fist, and nodded heavily, "Zhongde, I'll leave this to you!"

Cheng Yu immediately bowed down, "Yu Ding

Live up to the lord's entrustment! "

Cao Cao helped Cheng Yu up, and raised his voice outside the tent: "Come here, serve the wine!"

At noon that day, Cao Cao personally sent Cheng Yu out of the camp for a few miles. Cheng Yu sat in an inconspicuous carriage and went to Yuan Shao's camp not far away under the guard of more than a hundred healthy soldiers.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

The offensive and defensive battle in Yecheng continued on the second day, and the high-morale Northern Expeditionary Army continued to launch a strong attack from the north.All routines and scenarios seem to be no different from the first day.

The battle was in full swing, and the soldiers on both sides were screaming and fighting with their lives.Relying on the advantages of equipment and strong individual combat effectiveness, the Zhengbei Army rushed up the city wall several times, and the defense of the city wall appeared dangerous several times; although Cao Jun's overall combat power was not as good as that of the Zhengbei Army, they fought quite tenaciously.

The battle lasted until noon, and the battle was still in a stalemate, and both sides paid a considerable price.

Just when everyone focused their attention on the north city wall, an army of conquering the north suddenly launched a fierce attack from the south city wall, and the army of conquering the north suddenly attacked the south city wall with one drum.

It turned out that Xu Shu observed the defenses on all sides of Ye City yesterday evening and found that although a considerable number of defensive troops were deployed on the south wall, Xu Huang was careless or the defenders on the south side were careless. It seemed a little absent-minded, and many city defense equipment were not in place at all.

Seeing this scene, a plan suddenly appeared in Xu Shu's mind.Still use the main force to attack the north, and when the two armies are stuck in a stalemate, the outstanding troops attack the south wall, and they may be able to attack Yecheng with one drum.

When the main force of Cao Jun was fighting with the Northern Army in the north, a bloody little school stumbled and ran in front of Xu Huang who was urging the army to fight on the city wall.

"General, it's not good! The Beibei Army has already entered the city from the south!" The little principal said anxiously.

Xu Huang was startled, but before he could react, there was thunderous cheers outside the city, followed by thrilling killing sounds in the city.

There is no doubt that the North Army has indeed entered the city.

"Where's Wang Xian?" Xu Huang said angrily.Wang Xian is the guard in charge of defending the southern city wall.

"General Wang Xian has died in the chaos!"

Now is not the time to discuss Wang Xian's responsibilities, the most urgent task now is to quickly gather the remaining soldiers to break through.Xu Huang urgently ordered: "Li Dian, lead the middle battalion, front battalion, and rear battalion, and immediately go out of the east gate to break through and retreat south! Order the left battalion and right battalion to follow me in the city to entangle the Northern Zheng army!" [

Li Dian hesitated for a moment, then took the order and left.

Xu Huang ordered the Zuo Battalion to continue to entangle the main forces of the Zhengbei Army on the north city wall, while he personally led the Right Battalion to the city to hold back the incoming Zhengbei Army.

At the same time, Li Dian led the third battalion with nearly [-] troops to fight out from the east gate.As soon as he left the city, he ran into the [-] light cavalry of the northern army who had been waiting for a long time. The leading general was Lv Bu, who was the commander-in-chief.Xu Shu originally planned to let Ma Chao lead the cavalry to intercept and kill here, but Lu Bu, who is the coach, shamelessly occupied this task, which made Ma Chao angry and frustrated, who called him a coach.

Li Dian was shocked, and the soldiers under his command couldn't help commotion.Tens of thousands of infantry and thousands of cavalry huddled together in a mess, a bit like a flock of sheep surrounded by wolves.

Lu Bu twitched the corner of his mouth, revealing a cruel smile. Fang Tian waved his painted halberd in the air, and the [-] cavalry immediately let out a loud shout, and then the iron cavalry galloped and began to ravage the ground.

After all, Cao Jun was not a mob. After a short period of panic, they began to form formations under the supervision and organization of the generals, preparing to face the coming torrent of cavalry.

However, due to the haste of the matter, it was impossible for Cao Jun to form an formation in time.When Cao Jun's infantry line was still sparse and chaotic, [-] iron cavalry from the Northern Army had already attacked Cao Jun's formation with the force of thunder.

Immediately, like a scene of a torrent like a wheat field, Cao Jun's infantry was overwhelmed by a powerful cavalry torrent.The screams sounded like beans, and the blood was flying in the air like raindrops.

A powerful assault on the Confederate cavalry

In front of the force, Cao Jun kept retreating, but no one turned around and ran away.The torrent of iron cavalry continued to rush forward, and Cao Jun's soldiers were constantly chopped to the ground or knocked into the air.

Without an infantry line that formed a tight battle formation, it was impossible to resist the wild charge of the cavalry.

The situation could not be reversed, so Li Dian had to order all the troops to break out of the siege.

Cao Jun was already on the verge of collapse, and Li Dian's order immediately made Cao Jun's remaining will to fight completely disappear.The expected branch breakout did not occur, and the scene in front of him was a complete collapse in panic.

Seeing the soldiers under his command being beheaded in the process of escaping, Li Dian was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do.

Suddenly seeing Lu Bu holding Fang Tian's painted halberd and killing him all the way, Li Dian was shocked, and hurriedly turned his horse's head and galloped south...! ~!
