My Three Kingdoms is a bit fierce

Fifteen thousand Cao soldiers' foot soldiers were scattered, carrying ladders and struggling to advance through the rock-covered wilderness outside Huguan.

In this more than a month of siege warfare, countless stones were thrown onto this wilderness, and together with the various siege equipment of the Cao army that were destroyed, this originally flat wilderness became very mottled and difficult to walk.

Cao Jun advanced slowly, and when he reached a distance of three hundred meters, the expected rain of stones fell.

In the face of these terrifying stones falling from the sky, Cao Jun did not seem to be flustered, they were used to Xi, or they were numb.

Cao's army advanced in the rain of stones, and from time to time a sergeant was smashed to the ground.

When Cao's army advanced to a distance of only fifty meters from the city wall, a scene that everyone in Cao Jun had expected happened. The crossbow trucks, which had long since stopped shooting, unexpectedly roared together, and the dense rain of breathless arrows made a creepy whooshing sound and crashed straight towards the flow of Cao Jun's soldiers.

Suddenly, the screams were stacked, and the Cao army, which was advancing towards the city wall, fell like a seedling that suddenly encountered a strong wind.

The soldiers of Cao were horrified and involuntarily stopped, but they were afraid of Cao Cao's harsh military law and did not flee backwards.

At the same time, Cao Cao and his generals and strategists, who were watching the battle from behind, couldn't help but be taken aback when they saw this scene. In their minds, in these days of battle, the bows and arrows of the Northern Army should have been consumed! How dare you use a weapon like a repeater? If the arrows run out, the situation of the defenders will be even more difficult!

These days, the Northern Army did stop using the crossbow carts that consumed extremely arrows because the arrows were insufficient, but now the situation is different, Chen Chu brought 600,000 wolf's tooth arrows, which is enough for the Northern Army to consume for a while. However, Cao Cao's side did not know about this.

Cao Cao frowned and looked at the pass not far away that made him break his brain and heart, and only hesitated for a moment before resolutely ordering: "Beat the war drums!" Urging the Army! Don't go back! "。 One of the most important reasons why Cao Cao gave such an order was that he speculated that the Northern Expeditionary Army most likely wanted to use such a blow to frighten his own side.

As Cao Cao's order was handed down, Cao Jun's war drums beat more rapidly.

Hearing the sound of war drums, the soldiers of the Cao army in front couldn't help but turn pale, and then a ruthless color appeared on everyone's cheeks.

Cao Jun roared and continued to move forward, this time at a faster speed than just now.

Next, another unexpected scene appeared. I saw that the crossbow carts on the city wall fired again, and there was no interruption in the distance between Cao's army advancing under the city wall.

Under the sweep of waves of arrows, Cao Jun was killed and wounded. Cao Cao, who was watching the battle in the rear, was frighteningly white.

Although Cao Cao was scheming and resolute, he couldn't help but feel a tingling sensation in his heart when he saw his soldiers fall one by one.

After suffering heavy casualties, Cao Cao's army finally advanced under the city wall, and then Cao's soldiers howled and erected the ladder. At this time, the siege equipment in the hands of Cao Jun only has a ladder, which is very helpless, the wilderness outside Huguan is densely covered with large and small stones, and it is difficult for heavy equipment such as heavy equipment such as storming vehicles, movable arrow towers, and catapults to advance in this road condition.

As soon as Cao Jun came to the city, the Northern Army desperately threw wood and stones down, and at the same time hooked the ladder of Cao Jun with his halberd hand, and then a group of soldiers shouted together to pick up the ladder, and then pushed forward violently, the ladder fell backwards, and the soldiers of Cao Jun on the ladder shouted and flew in the air, and then fell to the ground together with the ladder.

Cao Jun worked hard to finally have soldiers climb the city wall, but before they had time to cheer, they were sent into the underworld by a piece of sword light.

Cao Jun felt that the opponent's combat power was unexpectedly strong, more than twice as strong as the combat power shown by the opponent some time ago.

Cao Jun couldn't help but be a little puzzled, they still didn't realize that it was not the Northern Army that was stationed at Huguan who was fighting them, but the reinforcements of the Northern Army.

Cao's army desperately charged the city walls, but their efforts only paid for greater casualties. The few soldiers who had stormed the walls were cleared before they stood for a moment.

Looking at Huguan from where Cao Cao was standing at this time, he saw that Cao soldiers climbed the city wall like ants, and then fell like raindrops. It was a sight to behold.

"Lord, something is wrong! I think it should be the reinforcements of the Northern Army who have arrived! It was Cao Cao's number one military advisor - Guo Jia who spoke. Guo Jia's brows were furrowed at this time, and his expression was very solemn.

Cao Cao couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard this, and when he hurriedly ordered: "Quick! Mingjin retreats! "。 Cao Cao himself was a resourceful person, and as soon as he heard Guo Jia's reminder, he immediately thought that the most likely possibility of the current abnormal performance of the Northern Army should be the arrival of reinforcements from the Northern Army. If it was the reinforcements of the Northern Army that arrived, then it would undoubtedly be a foolish act for him to send the soldiers to death by besieging the city like this.

A moment after Cao Cao's order was handed down, a sudden and loud golden bell rang out.

Then, Cao's army, which was desperately attacking the city, retreated like a flood at a receding tide.

After the siege troops retreated, Cao Cao was surprised to find that the original siege force of 15,000 people was now less than 6,000 people left!

The loss of more than 9,000 people in such a short period of time made Cao Cao both shocked and heartbroken.

After collecting his troops and returning to the camp, Cao Cao immediately convened the generals and strategists to discuss the matter.

"Fengxiao, the reinforcements of the Northern Army have arrived! Do you want to continue the siege? Cao Cao frowned and asked Guo Jia at the head of the right.

After thinking for a while, Guo Jia replied: "Chen Chu's current reinforcements are only 70,000 people!" What needs to be figured out now is, how many of these 70,000 people did Chen Chu put into Huguan?

Cao Cao nodded, did not speak, and waited for Guo Jia to continue to explain.

Guo Jia paused and continued: "It's best for our army to stop attacking the city for the time being!" At the same time, pay close attention to the situation on Yuan Shao's side, and judge the number of reinforcements that Chen Chu put into Huguan according to the situation on Yuan Shao's side. If Chen Chu puts the main force in the direction of Keiguan, then we will rush to attack Huguan and be sure to enter the state as soon as possible; If Chen Chu puts the main force on our side, then we can only wait and see what happens!

Cao Cao nodded slowly and accepted Guo Jia's suggestion. In fact, Cao Cao was very reluctant to be so passive, but the current situation made him have no better choice.

In the days that followed, the originally fierce and noisy Huguan quieted down. The camp of the Cao army seemed very quiet, and there was no movement.

Cao Cao had not attacked the city for several days, and Chen Chu and his soldiers were also happy to be idle.

On the third day after Chen Chu led his army to Huguan, there was news from Bingzhou that was neither good nor bad.

Taking advantage of the departure of Chen Chu's army, the scholars of Bingzhou gathered together to prepare for a rebellion, but as soon as the men and horses of these scholars were assembled, they were wiped out. The iron wall guards, which had been prepared for a long time, were led by the fierce general Dian Wei, and they fought on all sides, and in an instant, they killed these rabble who had been temporarily assembled by the Shi clan, and they turned their horses and cried wolves.

The scholars were taken aback when they saw the Iron Guards appear, because they had clearly seen with their own eyes that the five thousand Iron Guards had already left Bingzhou with Chen Chu.

In fact, it was just an illusion that Chen Chu deliberately showed to the scholars, if they didn't let them see that the army had left, how could they dare to do it? If they don't do it, how can Chen Chu justifiably wipe out these opposition forces?

Chen Chu led the army to leave Bingzhou for thirty miles, and the five thousand iron wall guards left the army and quietly returned to Bingzhou. In this regard, except for a very small number of people such as Lu Su who stayed in the state, even many of Chen Chu's staff members did not know.

Where are these rabble gathered by the gentry clan as opponents of the fierce Iron Guards! They only resisted for less than half an hour, and then they completely collapsed!

The rout scurried like sheep in a pack of wolves.

The Iron Guards were divided into more than a dozen teams to disperse and chase after them, while the other part of the Iron Guards, who had not made a move on the periphery, quickly converged to the middle.

The trapped warrior rebels were rapidly compressed, and in this case, the rebels slowly gathered together, like schools of fish in a pond caught in the nets of fishermen.

In the end, nearly 3,000 still alive rebels gathered in an open field south of the city of Bingzhou, which was the deliberate result of the Northern Army.

The rebels were surrounded by a circle of fierce and murderous iron guards, and on the nearby rooftops, many archers had bent their bows and arrows, aiming at the panicked rebels who were surrounded in the center.

Seeing this scene, the rebels were terrified, and some even trembled involuntarily. Usually they are scoundrels at most, where have they ever encountered such a situation in front of them; Before the rebellion, all had in their hearts the yearning for the land, wealth, and beauty promised by the nobles; They simply didn't expect them to fail.

"Whoever lays down his arms, don't kill!" The majestic Dian Wei stood at the forefront of the battle armor with horns and iron armor, holding a pair of terrifyingly large iron halberds, his voice rolling in the air like thunder.

With Dian Wei's roar, the surrounding iron wall guards suddenly took a step forward and shouted at the same time. Suddenly, the evil aura of slaughter spread, which made the already frightened rebels even more frightened, and some of the weapons in the hands of the timid fell on the spot, and stumbled back a few steps and sat on the ground.

However, in this case, there are still people who try to resist. "Brothers, don't listen to them! They lied to us! If we lay down our weapons, we'll be dead! A shrill voice rose in the midst of the rebels.

Dian Wei's eyes froze, and then he strode towards the center of the rebels.

Seeing Dian Wei, who was like an ancient giant beast, striding over, the shrill voice sounded again, "Quick!" Let's go together! Kill him! As long as we kill him, we will not only survive, but also occupy the state! The shrill voice seemed to be a little frightened and anxious.
