Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 849 Allied Attack 1
The atmosphere in the camp of the allied army was rather delicate. The soldiers and horses of the various princes seemed to be a little wary of each other. After the plan to raid Gongsun Xu failed, Cao Cao had to convene everyone again to discuss the next matters, but this time, I am afraid These princes are not so easy to talk to.

In the big tent, Cao Cao was still delivering his impassioned speech. He had to get angry, otherwise the next thing would be difficult to proceed, and the rest of the people listened quietly, even though Cao Cao's words were not very innovative.

"The enemy army is powerful and occupying the city. We must work together to defeat Gongsun Xu and break through Shouchun." Cao Cao looked at the crowd and said, "As long as we can break through this city, the gold, silver, food and grass in the city will be taken by you and others." .”

After the heavy news was thrown out, someone was finally moved. Zhang Xiu, Liu Biao, and Liu Bei agreed with Cao Cao. They didn't know how many good things there were in Shouchun City, but they knew in their hearts that Yuan Shu dared to proclaim himself emperor because of He hoarded a large amount of grain, grass, luggage, gold, silver and jewelry in Shouchun.

There are too many things they want in the city, as long as they can win Shouchun in the shortest time, everyone will definitely be able to make a fortune, but there is a premise, that is, as soon as possible.

Gongsun Xu has occupied Shouchun for a while, and Yuan Shao in the north failed to send troops to the south to block Gongsun Xu's retreat as agreed. During this period, Gongsun Xu can completely transfer the supplies in the city. Given time, maybe he could really get rid of all the jewels and luggage in the city.

Obviously, Cao Cao is also anxious now. He himself is jealous of the valuables and jewels in the city, but he knows that he will definitely not be able to take them down alone, and now his allies are obviously not that high-minded. Those who didn't wait early saw hope. Only in this way can he continue to command this war.

"Leader, in my opinion, it is better for us to divide our troops to attack Shouchun." Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Shouchun's city wall is too high, and there are many defenders in the city. If we gather together, we may not be able to take it in three to five months." Next. In order to prevent the defenders in the city from transporting away the luggage and jewels hoarded by Yuan Shu, we must seal the gates of the city.

Therefore, I suggest that each of us lead our subordinates to attack a city gate. Whoever enters the city first will gain the greatest benefit. What do you guys think? "

"I agree." Sun Ce suddenly slapped the table and shouted, "It's very fair, at least it won't be counted against."

"I also agree." Liu Biao looked at the crowd and said with a smile, "However, everyone also understands that there are only four gates in the city, but we have five armies, and most of the main forces of our Jingzhou are escorting food and grass in the rear, so our Jingzhou army is considered a city gate." The disadvantage is that I have joined forces with General Zhang for many years, and this time, I am afraid that the two of us will have to join forces to attack one of the city gates."

Liu Biao knew that his army was not elite enough, and compared with others, his generals were not enough, so he had to find allies for himself. Among others, Zhang Xiu was the only one who was the best to win over. It was all under his control, and Zhang Xiu had no reason not to cooperate with him. In fact, Liu Biao knew in his heart that if he invaded the city, the jewels Zhang Xiu got would eventually go to him, because what Zhang Xiu wanted was food and grass, and he was short of food and grass. And Jingzhou has these.

"Okay, everyone has said that, so let's make it so." Although Cao Cao's face is not good-looking, there is nothing he can do. He can indeed overcome all opinions, but the consequences will be very serious. Moreover, as long as he can break through the city wall, Wouldn't he still have no share in the jewels and luggage in the city? At that time, he could use his status as the leader to make more points.

"My general Cao Ren is already attacking the south gate, then our army will mainly attack the south gate..."

"My Jiangdong disciples are willing to attack the East Gate..."

"If you are not prepared, I would like to lead my subordinates to attack Ximen..."

Liu Biao and Zhang Xiu had no choice. They only had the east gate to attack. The others obviously wanted to take advantage of it. The north gate was the retreat route of the northern army, and it was considered a hard bone.But Liu Biao didn't care, what he wanted was the jewels and supplies in the city, and if other people didn't help him, he didn't mind saving his strength and letting him go.

Two days later, the allied forces attacked the four city gates. Gongsun Xu also made corresponding arrangements. From going south to now, Gongsun Xu has wasted a lot of time here. If he really wants to fight here, I am afraid that this The war has to go on for more than half a year.

"Except for the grain, grass and some jewels left in the city, all the other materials have been transferred." Jia Xu cupped his hands and reported to Gongsun Xuhui: "The three warehouses ordered by the lord have also been properly arranged, and the subordinates have drawn a detailed map. Some people were unwilling to leave with us, and the soldiers and their families who returned to our army basically evacuated Shouchun.

My lord, our army's original plan has been completed, and there is no need to die here. The subordinates believe that we can break through the encirclement and quickly go north to join Han Sheng. "

"Calculate the food and grass that cannot be taken away." Gongsun Xu nodded and replied: "As for the jewels, let's bury them there first. We will pick them up when our army goes south. It is true that we can leave now, but The enemy will not stop there, so we will still have to delay for a few days.

The enemy army has already started attacking the city, so we still have to consume their energy first. I will be in charge of the defense of the south gate, and Zilong will be in charge of the north gate. At that time, we will most likely retreat from the north gate, and Wen Yuan will be in charge of the east gate. , Ji Ling, you and Huang Xu are in charge of the west gate. I want you to guard the city and not attack. After ten days, we will discuss the breakout plan. "

"Master, besides those three warehouses, there are still a lot of food and grass that cannot be taken away. Do you want to..." Guo Jia looked at Gongsun Xu, and he seemed to have guessed what Gongsun Xu wanted to do, but he Gotta make sure.

"We have all come to Shouchun for so long, and we have to make some compensation for disturbing the local people." Gongsun Xu said with a smile: "Furthermore, the Tao is obtained from the people and used for the people. Think of it as doing something good for my uncle Yuan Shu, to compensate the people in the city. "

"The subordinates understand, so, huh, it's best,,,,,,"

The loud attack horn sounded outside the city. Cao Cao had many troops under his command, and he was the leader of the alliance. He must be the one who launched the attack first. The south gate had been reinforced by Gongsun Xu. If he wanted to break through the iron-like city wall, he might have to let the soldiers They take their lives to fill.

On the city tower, Gongsun Xu looked at the densely packed enemy army outside the city and sneered, "Come on, all of you, the city walls defended by our northern border army have never been lost. Aren't you Cao Cao a lot of people? Come, I don't care if you kill them or bury them!" .”

The other three city gates are relatively quiet at the moment. Even though Cao Cao has already launched an attack, there has been no fighting at these three city gates. It seems that there are many people who have always taken advantage of it, but there must be no one who really wants to bleed.
