The Three Kingdoms: The strategist will stop, and Rome will be unified

Chapter 200 The north of the Yangtze River belongs to Cao Cao
Outside Nanjun, Guan Yu was the chief general, and Zhang Fei, Yu Jin and others were the deputy generals leading [-] troops.

Now that Lu Bu is away, Gao Shun is the only one stationed in Nanjun.

"Gao Shun, surrender before leaving the city!"

"Your grandfather Zhang Fei will not kill you today!"

I saw a trace of panic on Gao Shun's face in the city, but he soon calmed down, looking at the approaching army, panic appeared in his eyes.

At this time, why did Cao Jun suddenly kill him?
He was unaware of the news that Cao Jun had killed him, and even the spies didn't detect any movement.

Cao Jun didn't even intend to send troops yesterday. These soldiers under Cao Jun seemed to have no need to rectify, and they killed them in an instant.

Moreover, they still took advantage of Lu Bu's absence and led the army forward. This was obviously a conspiracy, and it was definitely not a coincidence!

Gao Shun looked at the soldiers under the city and said in a deep voice: "The enemy army is powerful, don't go out of the city to fight, everyone stick to the city defense!"

Gao Shun can still see the analysis of the situation.

Now there are [-] defenders in Nanjun, [-] in Wuling, and the remaining [-] soldiers were taken away by Lu Bu to attack Changsha.

But Guan Yu said lightly: "Today I am ordered to recover Nanjun. If I am sensible, I will open the city gate as soon as possible, so as not to lose my life!"

Gao Shun looked at the countless soldiers below, and couldn't help but panic, whether this Nanjun is guarding or not!

Looking at Cao Jun below, Gao Shun gritted his teeth and said, "Stop talking nonsense there, and step into this city gate if you have the ability!"

The city defenses of the seven places in Jingzhou are not bad at all, and Changsha is the worst. The city defense of this southern county should be able to keep Guan Yu and the [-] army from attacking.

"Everyone is going to defend the city, and just [-] soldiers want to take my Nanjun?"

After the words fell, Gao Shun didn't intend to open the city gate.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't have such a good temper anymore, and continued to argue with Gao Shun.

I only heard Zhang Fei shouting: "Everyone, kill me!"

Fifty thousand soldiers charged straight away, the soldiers at the front held their shields high, and behind them covered countless climbing ladders and headed towards the city wall.

Gao Shun couldn't help but change his expression when he saw the extremely skillful actions of these soldiers breaking the city.

Not to mention that these soldiers are wearing heavy armor and walking like flying, the follow-up soldiers are also organized into various formations in an orderly manner, and countless soldiers are advancing quickly under the cover of heavy infantry shields.

And the arrows flying down from the city defense had little effect, not much effect at all.

Even falling rocks and rolling logs didn't have much effect. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and others didn't want to waste any time at all.

When there was a disagreement, the soldiers began to charge.

Behind the battlefield, Guo Jia watched all this indifferently.

"Within half a day, Nanjun must be taken!"

Under Guo Jia's well-organized command, Cao Jun was even more impeccable.

Yu Jin, who was protecting Guo Jia from the side, showed curiosity.

"Why the military division?"

Guo Jia said solemnly in his eyes: "If we can't capture Nanjun in half a day, we must retreat!"

"It should take half a day for Lv Bu to return after defeating Changsha. If we don't grasp this opportunity, we will face the enemy!"

"So for us, if persuading surrender is useless, then we will attack!"

At this moment, the soldiers in front of the formation are still constantly attacking the city defense. It seems that a strong attack may damage many soldiers, but compared to Lu Bu's army of more than [-], these damages are nothing!
The climbing ladder was successfully erected under the cover of heavy armor.

The heavy infantry in the first column held their shields high and rushed to the front, and countless soldiers climbed up the climbing ladder.

Gao Shun, who was personally in charge of the defense of the city, shouted loudly: "Locking rocks, falling rocks!"

Under Cao Jun's impenetrable defense, the archers on the city defense could not play any role at all. Watching Cao Jun climb up step by step, Gao Shun became more and more panicked.

According to this trend, it didn't take half an hour for Cao Jun to directly attack the city defenses. This scene is too exaggerated.

But Gao Shun couldn't think of any way to retreat from the enemy, and almost used all the city defense methods that could be used.

"Everyone, get ready to face Cao Jun!"

Gao Shun glanced sideways, with a cold approach.

The soldiers preparing for battle in the city immediately gathered towards the city defense and the city gate.

Obviously, the city couldn't be defended anymore, and the city defenses in Nanjun couldn't form any organization in front of these soldiers.

Although the general who came to lead the army was Guan Zhang, but this rigorous formation must be guided by an expert behind him.

Gao Shun is alone, what will he use to guard the South County?

Under Cao Jun's several attacks, the soldiers continued to climb up through the climbing ladder.

The soldiers who were ready stepped forward to resist, but how could Liu Biao's old troops compete with Cao Cao's soldiers?

At first, a [-]-[-] situation could be formed, but as Cao Jun continued to climb up, these soldiers were vulnerable.

Gao Shun's face was ugly. According to this trend, Nanjun would definitely fall.

"The enemy army is huge, our army should preserve its strength, fight again in another day, and withdraw!"

With Gao Shun's decisiveness, the decision would be executed immediately, and he would directly lead the [-] participating soldiers to abandon the city and head towards the south gate.

After the troops withdrew, the city gate was immediately occupied by Cao Jun, and the city gate opened wide.

Zhang Fei looked at Guo Jia behind him and asked, "Military Master, then Gao Shun, should we chase or not?"

Guo Jia shook his head and said: "Occupying Nanjun is the first priority, so Gao Shun doesn't need to worry about it, and Gao Shun still has a camp in his hands. I'm afraid it will not be so easy for us to keep him!"

As a military adviser, how could he not be able to tell the difference, the most important thing now is to occupy Nanjun.

If he continued to pursue, he might encounter Lu Bu who returned home in defeat, and the gains would outweigh the losses.

After obtaining Nanjun, their goal has been achieved.

I only heard Guo Jia say lightly: "Everyone is stationed in Nanjun, rectify the troops and horses, and prepare for the follow-up army to come!"

The southern part of Nanjun already bordered the Yangtze River Basin, so there was no need for them to pursue it, and Lu Bu and all his soldiers should move closer to Wuling County and the southern part of Nanjun.

Although it is said that Nanjun was captured, it was only the northern part of Nanjun.

As the dust of this battle settled, with Dongting and the Yangtze River as the boundary, the northern part of Jingzhou fell into Cao Cao's hands.

In the south of Nanjun, the defeated Gao Shun fled here.

"Gao Shun, why are you here?"

Lu Bu's face darkened, looking at Gao Shun's embarrassed appearance, it was obvious that this explained everything.

The northern part of Nanjun has been lost.

Chen Gong said with an ugly face: "It's probably because the north has fallen. I didn't expect Cao Jun to come here at this time."

Gao Shun also shook his head and said: "My lord, you have only left for an hour, and Cao Jun immediately killed him. It must be premeditated, and Cao Jun's ability to attack the city is simply hard to describe."

Although he wanted to explain, he still gave up. If the city is lost, it is lost. No matter how much it is said, it is useless.

The two of them did not blame Gao Shun for his fall.

Cao Jun was going south at this time, and he couldn't resist it at all.
