King of Liao at the end of Han Dynasty

Chapter 404

"Hurry up and dodge! Hurry up and dodge!" Guo Jia kept yelling, and soldiers behind him pulled Guo Jia over and hid directly under the city...

"Boom, boom..." A piece of flint hit the top of Fanyin's city. The city wall of Fanyin was not very strong, and many gaps were made in a short time...

"Stop!" Li Lin waved the flag, and Zhao Yun asked in confusion beside Li Lin, "Oh? My lord, why did you stop? If you persist for a while, I'm afraid this cloudy city wall will collapse..."

Li Lin shook his head and said, "Although this catapult is very useful, these stones and the alcohol for burning fire are very expensive and difficult to transport. After the yin and yang, there will be another one in Liyang. Let's save it, otherwise I'm afraid it won't work in Liyang..."

"En!" Zhao Yun nodded.

"Siege the city!" Li Lin gave an order, and the army immediately moved into action, "Kill..." With a loud cry of killing, the army began to attack the city.

How could Guo Jia control this? As soon as he heard the shout of killing, he rushed to the top of the wall and shouted, "Get ready, the enemy is coming!"

Cao Jun suffered heavy losses, but after all, he was also a soldier of hundreds of battles. He rushed up quickly. Although the city wall was already dilapidated, he still held up his spears to resist Li Lin's army's siege. ………

"Did something happen in the city..." Lying on the couch, Cao Cao had been suffering from a headache for a long time, but he opened his eyes weakly when he heard the loud noise, and asked Looking at Dian Wei and Xu Chu in front of him...

"This...don't worry, my lord. With the military adviser here, the city will be fine!" Xu Chu and Dian Wei looked at each other, and finally Xu Chu said that he didn't know what was going on in the city, and Guo Jia also knew about Cao Cao's situation, so he didn't send troops either. come over…………

"You all come! Lead the soldiers of the Tiger Guards to... to support the army division..." Cao Cao said weakly.

"This... We still have to protect the lord's safety!" Xu Chu wondered.

"If... If the city is lost, how can I be safe, go quickly, this is a military order!" Cao Cao said.

"No!" Xu Chu and Dian Wei cupped their hands, and then ran out. Xu Chu immediately pulled a maid over, scaring him enough. A little scared and collapsed to the ground......

"You, you must keep an eye on the lord!" Xu Chu said in a low voice, and then he will look even more terrifying...

"Yes..." The maid froze for a moment, nodded, and agreed in a low voice. When Xu Chu heard the answer, he immediately let go of the maid's hand and ran out...

With the addition of Cao Cao's Tiger Guards, plus Xu Chu and Dian Wei, two god-killing figures, the pressure on Guo Jia's side suddenly eased a lot...

To make a long story short, anyway, in the end, Li Lin still didn't capture the city, and because he didn't want to lose too many soldiers and horses here, Li Lin took the soldiers back to the camp. I can't support it for a day......

Li Lin entered the commander's tent, and immediately said, "Jingshan, hurry up and count the casualties of today's soldiers, and the grain shipped from Youzhou has arrived..."

Xu Miao hurriedly said, "My lord, don't worry, a batch of food has arrived in Youzhou, and Lord Wang of Youzhou is still preparing for transportation. After all, we have consumed too much. There are still Xianbei people threatening the back of Youzhou. Lord Wang dare not Use our army rations easily!"

Li Lin nodded and said, "Okay! You have to pay close attention to the matter of food and grass, and you must not let our army run out of food!"

"No!" Xu Miao said.

Li Lin squinted his eyes and looked outside the tent, and said quietly, "Huh! Fanyin, you can leave tomorrow!"

The next day, Li Lin was very puzzled when he learned that Guo Jia had tightened his forces and transferred the troops from the battalion outside the city and the Xiahou brothers back to the city one after another, posing as if they were going to defend Fanyin. Is this troublesome entanglement unclear?
Immediately, Li Lin led [-] Youliao elites to attack Fanyin, but when he arrived at the city of Fanyin, Li Lin frowned at the scene he saw before. In an hour, Fanyin would almost be breached, but when we arrived at the city of Fanyin, behind the city wall of Fanyin, countless people in coarse and plain clothes were driven up the wall. Yi came to persuade the people to defend the city, but the soldiers directly held the weapons against the people's backs and forced the people directly to the city wall... Just look at the people tremblingly holding the damaged spears in their hands, looking at them with fear. With the mighty Li Lin army outside the city and the dilapidated city wall, the scene is very delicate...

"Damn it!" Seeing this scene, Zhao Yun and others looked angry, and secretly glanced at Li Lin's expression, only to see that Li Lin's brows were already frowned, and his eyes were terrified. After a glance, they all silently looked at their war horses. He stretched out his hand and fiddled with the horse's mane a few times. He was very depressed. He was eager to try and wanted to be the first to climb the top of the city, that first achievement, but the situation in front of him, How should this be done...

"My lord! This..." Zhao Yun looked back at Li Lin and said,

"..." Li Lin reached out his hand to stop Zhao Yun's words, took a deep look at the city wall of Fanyin, and sighed softly, "I never thought that Guo Jia would do such a thing, and he would be a famous person in the world, ghost Guo Jia, hum!" After finishing speaking, he shook his head, and then shouted in a low voice, "Zilong! Go and drink Cao Cao and come out to answer!'"

"Promise!" Zhao Yun clasped his fists, steered the mount under his crotch, and slowly moved forward, shouting loudly, "Cao Cao, I didn't expect you to let the people drive out the city. It's really abominable to do such a shameless thing! Cao Mengde! With me come out!"

At the same time, on the top of the city, the faces of the generals are also very varied, but some of them are unwilling to use the people to defend the city and are still forced. As generals, they should die in battle and use the people to block the enemy. What happened to the army? Li Dian looked at the indifferent country and said hesitantly, "Military division! Fame, if you let the lord know... let alone this, if Li Yuanjie really feels angry in his heart and raises his troops to attack the city, then what should we do?"

"Hehe..." Guo Jia shook his head, smiled miserably, and said confidently, "Know yourself and know your enemy, and you can win a hundred battles. Although I don't know the details about Li Lin, I have heard of his good reputation. The state loves the people very much, and so do the generals under it. I have also heard that Tian Yu and Zhao Hu dug the river and flooded the city in Qingzhou. Leading the people to rescue the people, this saved them a lot, so this extremely large army of Li Yuanjie has a certain reputation among the people, I see that the people in this city are not ruthless people who are greedy for profit..."

"..." After hearing this, Xiahoudun's face revealed a bit of weirdness, and he said hesitantly, "However, it is really inappropriate to drive the local people to defend the city..."

"For the sake of the lord, I have no choice but to do this!" Guo Jia said, "Li Yuanjie, seeing my layout, must first invite the generals under his command to call the lord to answer, Man Cheng! You might as well invite him to fight outside the city tomorrow, and Li Yuanjie will retreat today !'"

"Ah?" Li Dian was full of doubts, and asked Chi Chi, "Didn't the military adviser say that Li Yuanjie is a man of great skill in warfare, and we can't fight him head-on when we run out of troops? Why..."

"That's true!" Guo Jia said helplessly, "However, even if I want to retreat, will Li Yuanjie sit back and watch my retreat? There is no need for him to send the rest of the army, just send the Youliao cavalry all the way to kill, and we will wait tens of thousands The rest of the soldiers are all sitting and waiting to die! Since this is Jizhou, what generation are we waiting for from Henan, and there are indeed Hebei people in Fanyin City, so Li Yuanjie must be worried about the safety of the people in the city, and think that we Henan people will not He is soft on the people of Hebei, so he will definitely not attack by force and hurt the lives of the people! Although a certain ordered you to drive out the people to defend the city, the people will not be harmed in the slightest!"

"This... I don't know if the military master has a good plan in mind... I hope the military master will forgive me!" The generals suddenly realized, and finally understood what Guo Jia meant, and understood that Guo Jia didn't care about his own reputation. The safety of these tens of thousands of troops all bowed to Guo Jia, and it happened that Zhao Yun's shout came from outside the city at this moment.

Just as he was about to reply, Li Dian suddenly had a question in his heart. He turned to Guo Jia and asked, "Since the military commander is determined to withdraw his troops, why did he tell Li Yuanjie that the battle will resume outside the city tomorrow?"

"Soldiers, deceitful way! My name is Mancheng. I told Li Yuanjie to retreat. A gentleman can be deceived, but he can't be ignored. Who is this Li Lin? If we really refuse to come out of this city, Li Lin will definitely issue an order immediately Siege!"

Regarding what Guo Jia said, everyone nodded in explanation. Guo Jia nodded, and Li Dian immediately went down to the city. The Fanyin City Gate slowly opened, and Li Dian galloped out on his horse, and met Zhao Yun...

Guo Jia also clenched his fists on the tower, whispering in his mouth, "One day, less than one day, Gongda has already made preparations, as long as Li Yuanjie retreats today, he can transport the lord away. It's a success, and it's a last resort to use such a trick..."

"Catch!" Zhao Yun, who was about to scold someone in the city, yelled, pointed his gun at Li Dian, and said angrily, "Who are you, but you are here to die?"

"That's Mr. Cao's generals, Li Dian, Li Mancheng!" Li Dian also had no fear on his face, and he bowed his hands to Zhao Yun...
