The Three Kingdoms are invincible

In this battle, a total of 790 people were lost in the camp, and a total of [-] people were lost by the euphorbia fighters.

The losses of both sides are not insignificant. Although the Euphorbias only sent 1000 people to fight this time, the total number of them is 3000. Therefore, the loss of nearly 800 people has not yet constituted a fatal blow. It really needs rebuilding.

Although judging from the number of casualties, the trapped camp still killed more than a dozen people in the end than the Euphorbia soldiers, but from the perspective of the battle situation, anyone can see that the trapped camp is the one that wins after losing first.

What's more, Zhang He's call for gold to withdraw his troops was also an expression of admitting defeat.

After this battle, Cao Jun's morale rose sharply, while Yuan Jun's morale was sluggish.

If it was an easy victory, although Cao Jun's morale would rise, it might not rise as fast as it is now.It is precisely because this victory did not come easily that it is even more precious.The trapped camp was suppressed and beaten by the euphorbia warriors at the beginning, and they were on the verge of defeat, but in the end they fought desperately and turned defeat into victory.Therefore, after seeing such a fierce fight in the trapped camp, the morale of Cao's army rose significantly.

On Yuan Jun's side, seeing a victory that was about to be won but finally lost, the sense of loss was indescribably uncomfortable.In addition, Yuan Shao wanted to execute General Zhang Xi because of his defeat in the First World War. Although the generals persuaded him and failed, this kind of chilling behavior still dealt a blow to the morale of the army.

The fight ended in failure, Yuan Shao stopped talking nonsense and let the whole army attack.Facing Yuan Jun's mighty offensive, Cao Cao naturally led his army to resist to the death.Because Yuan Jun's morale was low and he had no intention of fighting, although Cao Jun's numbers were far inferior to the opponent's, they fought a comparable scene with him.In the end, after the two sides each paid thousands of casualties, they actually stopped fighting at the same time with a tacit understanding, and withdrew their troops one after another to set up camp.

The subsequent war trend was similar to the original historical development. Although Yuan Shao's army was strong, Cao Cao had no choice but to defend the camp, and Yuan's army could not overcome it for a long time.Yuan Shao then followed the advice of the judge and selected strong and strong soldiers from each battalion to come to Cao Cao's stronghold and build a mountain with shovels and soil.At the same time, Shenpei personally led the archers to guard the throat and prevent Cao Jun from coming to destroy the pile.When the fifty earth mountains were built, Yuan Shao ordered his soldiers to build bows and oars on the earth mountains, and ordered the crossbowmen to shoot arrows at the Cao camp below, causing great damage to the soldiers in the Cao camp.

In the face of the enemy's fierce attack of bows and arrows, Liu Ye, a counselor under Cao Cao's account, rushed to build several catapults overnight. Shoot arrows from the top of the earth hill to Cao Ying below.

Seeing that the earth-mountain method was ineffective, the judge offered a plan to dig a tunnel. However, Cao Cao also observed the excavation, and finally this plan came to nothing.

The two armies confronted each other at Guandu, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye. Although Yuan Jun maintained an overall advantage over Cao Jun in these ten days, with the efforts of Cao Cao and his subordinates, they were still unable to win. What a glorious victory.

Although the battle situation is not very favorable for one's own side, it is not easy to fight to this level in the face of such a disparity in power, so the atmosphere in Cao Ying is not serious.

However, just half a month after the war between the two sides, a letter of appeal for help from Xuchang made the atmosphere in Cao Ying suddenly freeze to freezing point.

The content of the letter is very simple, and it only adds up to a few words, but it caused a huge wave in Cao Ying.

"Sun Jian sent troops from Jiangxia, with more than [-] troops, and has conquered Wancheng, and the troops are approaching Xuchang. Please help!"

Sun Jian moved!At this critical moment of confrontation between Cao and Yuan, Sun Jian raised his troops to the north.

As early as in the original history, the little overlord Sun Ce deliberately stepped in when Yuan and Cao were fighting, and sent troops to attack Xuchang.It's a pity that before Sun Ce raised his troops, he was ambushed by three of Xu Gong's retainers during a hunting trip. He was seriously injured and died not long after.

However, the current Lord of Jiangdong is Sun Jian instead of Sun Ce. Although Sun Jian's character is as fierce as Sun Ce's, he is not as frivolous and violent as Sun Ce.In the process of unifying the great clans in Jiangdong, Sun Jian was kind and powerful, rather than relying solely on killing.Although most of the Jiangdong gentry did not return their hearts to Sun Jian, an outsider, and still adopted an attitude of obedience and indifference to him, but there were not many people who clearly opposed Sun Jian, let alone anyone who would send assassins to assassinate Sun Jian.

Even if an assassin wants to assassinate Sun Jian, it is not easy.After all, Sun Jian was surrounded by so many protections that it was difficult to have a chance to strike. Sun Jian himself would not be like Sun Ce, who would go to some remote place alone while hunting without taking anyone with him, and give the assassin the opportunity to attack in vain.

Although Jiangdong has not yet been completely pacified, it is generally under Sun Jian's control. The only major problem is the corruption of the Shanyue people.However, the two heroes in the north are fighting, and this is the best opportunity for Sun Jian. He doesn't want to miss the opportunity to win the world because of the Shanyue incident.So after leaving some soldiers and horses under the command of General He Qi to defend against Shanyue, Sun Jian personally took command, with his eldest son Sun Ce and Zhonglang General Zhou Yu as his deputy commanders, and Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai and others as generals. , raised [-] troops, starting from Jiangxia, which was occupied last year, and went north to attack Cao.

Under the onslaught of the Jiangdong Army, Wancheng, Cao Jun's southern barrier, was quickly conquered.After the capture of Wancheng, the Jiangdong Army still had [-] people left, and they did not stop at the moment, and immediately went straight to Xuchang.

At this time, Xuchang's defender was Cao Ren, with Xu Rong, Li Dian, and Yu Jin as his deputy, and Xun Yu and Jia Xu as his conspirator.However, although Cao Ren can be regarded as the top five generals under Cao Cao's account, Xu Rong, Li Dian, and Yu Jin are all good generals in the world, and Xun Yu and Jia Xu are excellent advisers, but there are less than two defenders in Xuchang. Wan!Besides, among the enemy army, Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai, etc., which one of them is less famous than those civil servants and generals in Xuchang City?

Although Xuchang City is the current capital of the Han Dynasty, it was not considered a big city at first, but was gradually repaired and expanded after welcoming the emperor.Although Xuchang City had been built to a considerable scale at this time, it was still far behind other fortified cities in the world in terms of its fortification.

So, [-] versus [-], it is really difficult to keep Xuchang, and the situation is in jeopardy!

At this time, Cao Cao was confronting Yuan Shao, and the situation was not going to be any better. Now that Sun Jian stepped in again, it would be even worse.If Xuchang City is unfortunately captured by Sun Jian, then Cao Cao's painstaking efforts and efforts over the past few years will all be in vain.

If that's the case, it's really beyond redemption!
