The Three Kingdoms are invincible

"Wen Chang, look at the strength of Cao's army, it's quite spectacular." On the wall of Wancheng, a middle-aged general with a strong physique and a resolute appearance said to the young people around him.It's just that although he called Cao's army magnificent in his words, his tone was always flat, and he couldn't hear any timidity at all, and even faintly, there was a bit of excitement.

"Hmph, it's just a mob." The young man's face was like a jujube, with a haughty expression, which was somewhat similar to Guan Yu.

The middle-aged man is Huang Zhong Huang Hansheng, 43 years old this year, served as a general in Liu Biao's army, and was under Liu Pan's jurisdiction.Earlier, Huang Zhong and Liu Pan guarded Changsha together. After Liu Pan was transferred to Wancheng, Huang Zhong naturally followed him to Wancheng to garrison.

And that young man is Wei Yan, who is not yet 20 years old at this time, at the age of passion and impulsiveness.Although Wei Yan was young, he was quickly appreciated by Huang Zhong because of his outstanding ability.However, although Huang Zhong recommended Wei Yan several times, because of Wei Yan's arrogant and extreme temperament, he was not liked by Liu Pan.

"How can Wen Chang underestimate the enemy?" At some point, Liu Pan came behind the two of them, "This time, Cao Jun's chief general is Gao Shun. I heard that this man is a famous general in the world, and his subordinates can be regarded as rare elite soldiers in the world. You must not Look down on it."

Gao Shun's reputation at this time was already well-known, at least most of the generals did not dare to belittle him when facing him.

"Hmph, that Gao Changgong's articles are not bad, and he is quite capable as a scholar. But when it comes to fighting, I want to see how good he is?" Unfortunately, Wei Yan is not among the majority of people.Maybe it's because a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, or maybe it's because of his proud personality, in short, he doesn't pay much attention to Gao Shun.

"How can you underestimate the heroes of the world, be careful that it will be too late to regret it in the future!" Liu Pan was originally displeased with Wei Yan, but now he was even more displeased to see that he still had the idea of ​​underestimating the enemy after the war.It should be noted that Gao Shun is also a veteran general who has been famous for a long time, and you Wei Yan is just a mere military marquis, why are you so arrogant and ignore powerful enemies!Thinking of this, Liu Pan snorted coldly, waved his sleeves and left.

Liu Pan acted like this, Wei Yan only thought that he deliberately insulted him, and he was also secretly annoyed.

"Wen Chang..." Huang Zhong also felt a little troubled by Wei Yan's temper.Although Huang Zhong was not afraid of Cao Jun, he was vaguely looking forward to and excited about the upcoming battle.But in any case, Huang Zhong will never underestimate Cao Jun, and it is a taboo for generals to underestimate powerful enemies.He wanted to persuade Wei Yan a few words, but he didn't know how to speak, so he shook his head helplessly.If Wei Yan's temper doesn't change, it may be difficult for him to succeed under Liu Pan's tent.In fact, it's not just Liu Pan, who in the world would want to have a frivolous and arrogant general under his command.

"Cao's army is attacking the city!" Even if Huang Zhong wanted to persuade him, there was no time for him to organize his words, and Cao's army had already launched an offensive.

—————————————————————————————————————— After Gao Shun led the army to Wancheng, he made some adjustments and launched an attack on the city wall shock.

It stands to reason that Gao Shun commanded an army of [-], and there were [-] defenders in the city. The difference in strength between the two sides was not too great.Wancheng's defenses are strong, and it is obviously unwise to launch a strong attack under such a balance of forces.

However, 2 people is the upper limit of the number of people Cao Cao can transfer to Gao Shun at this time.Yuan Shu had to teach a lesson, and Yuan Shao had to be on guard. In this case, it would be pretty good to allocate 2 people to Gao Shun.Although the superiority of troops is not obvious, even if it is not wise to attack the city at this time, Gao Shun must give the order to attack.Even at all costs, Wancheng must be won, only this is beyond doubt, and it is the premise above everything else.

Although there is a wise counselor like Jia Xu by his side, no matter how smart a wise man is, he is by no means omnipotent.At least the use of a strategy needs an opportunity, and now in front of the walls of Wancheng, the so-called opportunity has not yet been born.

But even so, Gao Shun didn't just give the siege order in a flash of his brain.There are two reasons why he dared to attack the city. One is that Cao Cao allocated a large number of siege equipment to him, and the other is that he has never heard of Liu Pan.

Although Cao Cao couldn't give Gao Shun more soldiers and horses, he still didn't hesitate to use the siege equipment.With the participation of these siege equipment in the battle, at least it can ensure that the casualties of our own army are greatly reduced.

As for Liu Pan, the defender of Wancheng, Gao Shun had no impression at all.His understanding of the Three Kingdoms is not thorough, and it has been several years since he traveled through time, so he probably has almost forgotten those who are not particularly famous.Since he hadn't heard much about Liu Pan's name, Gao took it for granted that the other party was at best a second-rate general, so he didn't take him too seriously.

Of course, Gao Shun's prediction of Liu Pan was not wrong. Liu Pan's own ability is not very outstanding, but he has two outstanding people under his command.If Gao Shun knew that Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were in the Wancheng in front of him, he would never dare to give the order to siege the city so easily, no matter how many siege weapons he had.

It can be said that Gao Shuncong underestimated the enemy to a certain extent. This mistake was not only made by Wei Yan, but also by Gao Shun.Although it is taboo for a general to underestimate the enemy, sometimes the more famous a general is, the easier it is to make such mistakes.Feelings of underestimating the enemy may not necessarily be related to personality, but sometimes it is just a habit. When you win repeatedly, you will naturally unintentionally elevate yourself and belittle others.No matter how cautious a person is, it is difficult to avoid inadvertent changes in mentality.Cao Cao's defeat at Chibi was like this. In terms of personality, Cao Cao was definitely not that kind of frivolous person, but after he defeated Yuan Shao with inferior forces in the Battle of Guandu, he eventually felt complacent.Thinking that even Yuan Shao had been defeated, Sun Quan was not just a piece of cake.It was with this mentality that Cao Cao ended up in tragedy.

The battle was very tragic, and the rolling stones were thrown from the city wall one after another, blocking Cao Jun's climbing steps.

It stands to reason that the casualties of the attacking side would be much greater than that of the defending side, but fortunately with the help of siege equipment, the casualty ratio between Cao Jun and Wancheng defenders was not too large, almost 1.2:1.

"Archers, get ready—shoot!" Huang Zhong gave an order, and another rain of arrows shot down on the top of the city, taking away dozens of people's lives.

And Huang Zhong himself was even more unwilling to let others go, and shot three arrows in succession, piercing the throats of three Cao soldiers in an instant.

"Be careful, general!" However, just as Huang Zhong was about to bend his bow and set his arrows again, and continue to reap the lives of Cao Bing, a sergeant beside him suddenly shouted.Immediately afterwards, Huang Zhong heard the sound of the wind in his ears, and hastily bent his waist, narrowly avoiding the sharp arrow whizzing past his head.

Well fence, well fence again!If it weren't for the archers on these well rails, the casualties of their defenders would never have been so heavy!Huang Zhong was angry and anxious, but he was helpless.

Gao Shun didn't expect to be able to break through Wancheng in one day. Seeing that it was almost dusk, he ordered Mingjin to withdraw his troops early.

After the war, the two sides counted the number of casualties respectively. The Cao army killed 570 people in battle, and the Wancheng defenders killed [-] and [-] people in battle.

Gao Shun couldn't help sighing because he lost nearly one adult horse on the first day. It seems that it is really difficult to capture Wancheng.

Of course, Gao Shun found it difficult, and Liu Pan also felt uncomfortable at this time.He also knows the importance of Wancheng very well. Once Wancheng is destroyed, the land of Jingchu will have no barriers in the north.

But what's the use of worrying?Cao Jun's offensive is so fierce...
