Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 652
Fighting opportunities are fleeting, Cao GUI and Cao Can are famous generals in the world, so they can naturally understand this truth.If they still can't take Mengjin Pass before the enemy's reinforcements arrive, it means that their operation this time has failed.

Therefore, after the capture of Xiaopingjin Pass, it was only less than two days of rest for the soldiers to recover their fighting power.Afterwards, Cao GUI and Cao Can began to lead the army to attack Mengjin Pass.

Catapults and bed crossbows can be used not only as defense equipment, but also as siege equipment. These things were naturally reserved in Xiaopingjin Pass before.

On the same day, when the enemy army broke through the pass, Xu Huang immediately ordered the granary and these equipment to be burned down when the last thing could not be done.However, Cao GUI and Cao Shen also reacted very quickly, and immediately implemented remedial measures.

In the end, although a lot of food and grass were burned, most of the equipment was seized by Cao GUI.In order to break through Mengjin Pass as soon as possible, Cao GUI used all these equipment.

But Zhang Liao, the head of the five good generals, was not a vegetarian. Although the enemy's offensive was fierce, the Mengjin Pass guarded by Zhang Liao stood like a solid rock.

But today, everything seems to have changed a bit.

"Gongming, get everything ready. When the time comes, we must not leave even a single ounce of food to the enemy!" Zhang Liao couldn't help but let out a icy smile as he looked at the Cao-Yuan coalition forces that were continuously launching fierce attacks under the wall.

"Don't worry, General!" Xu Huang replied with cupped hands, with a trace of paleness in his face.

Although Xu Huang escaped back to Mengjin Pass alive last time, his injuries were not serious. If Zhang Liao hadn't been short-handed, Xu Huang would not have been injured to go into battle.

Now, in Mengjin Pass, the only generals Zhang Liao could use were Xu Huang and Li Zongtang.

"Zong Tang, the military adviser's orders have been completed!" Zhang Liao asked again, turning sideways to another general beside him.

"Don't worry, general, everything has been done according to the requirements of the military adviser!" Li Zongtang replied confidently.

"Okay!" Having got the desired answer, Zhang Liao's face suddenly showed joy.

"General, the enemy general Cao Ning has already attacked the city wall, and the brothers are about to be unable to stop it!" It didn't take long before a low-level officer ran over in a panic and said in a panic.

Before, in order to deal with the two masters Cao Ning and Jiao Ying, Zhang Liao specially sent [-] strong crossbowmen to watch them.But today Zhang Liao withdrew those [-] strong crossbowmen, and due to the strong attack of the Cao Yuan coalition forces, during this period of time, especially the new army with low combat strength has suffered a lot of casualties.

Therefore, some small flaws in the defense began to appear continuously, and it was precisely because of this that Cao Ning climbed onto the city wall in one fell swoop today.

"Pass the order, let the brothers start to retreat!" Zhang Liao glanced at Cao Ning who was killing all directions from a distance, and said coldly.

It was said that Xu Huang and Li Zongtang were not surprised. Although they didn't know the whole content of Wang Meng's letter to Zhang Liao, they just needed to do their own things well.

Although I don't know what Wang Meng's plan is behind the abandonment of the pass, but the sky is falling and there is a tall man supporting it, and they are not qualified to intervene in these matters as the two of them.

Zhang Liao had already made preparations, and there were two thousand new troops with low combat power who were abandoned, so the retreat was proceeding in an orderly manner.

"No, order Generals Cao Ning and Jiao Ying to take down the pass wall first, and don't enter the pass rashly!" Zhang Liao retreated like this, and Cao GUI immediately sensed something was wrong.If something goes wrong, it will be the enemy. Zhang Liao's retreat is so weird this time, there may be fraud behind it!

Beside Cao GUI, Cao Shen nodded in the same understanding.Cao Shen's ability was no worse than Cao GUI's, and he also realized something was wrong in the first place.

On the city wall, although Cao Ning and Jiao Ying were unwilling to let Zhang Liao go like this, they did not dare to openly disobey the order and pursue them, so they could only deal with the batch of abandoned sons left by Zhang Liao for delaying time.

Soon, the command of the general was lost, and the combat power of the Cao Yuan coalition army was far higher than this group of new troops. Finally, these new troops could not bear the pressure of the battlefield and the killing, and they collapsed and abandoned one by one. Putting down the weapon in his hand, he began to kneel down and beg for surrender.

"Lead three hundred sergeants to escort those surrendered soldiers, plant more flags, enter the pass quickly, and investigate carefully!" After successfully taking down the pass wall, Cao Shen instructed Sima, a member of the army beside him.

The army Sima is also a veteran of many years. In this situation, he has already realized that something is wrong, but he dare not say a word.After entering the customs, there is still a possibility of survival. If he dares to disobey the general's order even if he is a small army commander, Cao Shen will kill him on the spot.

Xiongxiong's raging fire ignited, from the granary to the armory to every corner of the pass, even nearly half of the pass.

When Cao GUI and Cao Can saw this sudden change, they immediately said to themselves that it was a fluke. Fortunately, they were extra careful, otherwise, the army behind them would be finished.

At the same time, at the next moment, the two of them issued an order to let the soldiers behind them put out the fire quickly. After they captured Mengjin Pass today, the goal of sending troops this time was achieved.

Next, Cao Yuan's main army, which was originally on the front line of Hulao Pass, would pass through Xiaopingjin and Mengjin passes continuously, and enter Sizhou in one fell swoop.Before that, they only needed to defend Mengjin Pass before Cao Yuan's main force, and not let the opponent take it back.

However, although he avoided the fire attack this time, Cao GUI always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong!
However, even so, this did not affect Cao GUI's official takeover of Mengjin Pass.In Cao GUI's view, once Mengjin closed, they would already be invincible.Even if the enemy has any conspiracy, he just needs to remain unchanged to respond to all changes.

As long as the main force at Hulao Pass arrives, everything will be a foregone conclusion, even if the enemy has any plans, it will be turned into a fantasy.

……

Not far from Mengjin Pass, Zhang Liao did not show any surprises when he heard that the fire did not cause any damage.In the midst of this fire, Zhang Liao had no extravagant hope that it would produce any results.

The opponents are veterans in the battlefield, and this kind of trap will not be stepped into so easily.This fire is just to make the other party think that this is their calculation behind it.

But in fact, when Cao GUI and Cao Shen personally led the army into Mengjin Pass, the battle finally really started.
