Three Kingdoms Online Games: Battle for Hegemony
Chapter 781: Attack Puyang again
During the few days under Puyang City, Xu Rong had already reorganized the soldiers and horses. All the wounded soldiers were arranged by him to return to Baima City. Returning with them were the wounded among the 20,000 prisoners of Cao Cao Army. As for the Cao Cao Army, The other prisoners of Xu Rong will be used by Xu Rong to fill the river and open the siege channel.
As for the guards of Baima City and Baima Port, they were also transferred to the Puyang City Camp. The soldiers and horses defending the two places were handed over to the wounded nearly ten thousand soldiers.
With the addition of the 20,000 troops transferred from Sizhou and the 10,000 defenders transferred from Baima, Xu Rong replenished all his suitable soldiers and soldiers, and all the other soldiers were reorganized into several.
On the 15th, Xu Rong began to arrange for the Cao Cao army captives to fill the river and open the siege channel to Puyang City.
At the same time, the five thousand diggers of the Dugu brothers began to work, starting from a forest in the north of Puyang city, digging a siege tunnel. The five thousand diggers were divided into ten teams by the Dugu brothers, each with 500 The prisoners transported the excavated soil and dug ten passages into Puyang City.
According to the results of the discussion between the three brothers of Duguxiong, starting from five miles outside the city, it takes four to five days to dig through all five tunnels. The most difficult position is the distance between the moat and the wall below, so Xu Rong It is also ready to capture Puyang in five to six days.
Although there are tunnels in preparation, Xu Rong's offensive is still pressing, leaving Cao Jun in the city no time to take care of others.
On the first day, Xu Rong ordered the prisoners of war to fill the river regardless of casualties and open up the siege channel. In less than a day, Xu Rong refilled the moat of Puyang City at the cost of two thousand prisoners. , Nearly thirty siege tunnels were prepared. This is the third time that Puyang City has been filled in the moat in less than a year.
After a night of silence, the offensive on the next day officially began. Although Xu Rong’s offense always seemed so tepid, he was quite prepared for the rhythm of the offense. Often the offensive soldiers from the previous round were still there. On the way to retreat, but the next round of offensive soldiers has already started.
In the past, several rounds of offensives ended a day. Although the number of soldiers killed and wounded Cao Cao was limited, the pressure on the city was always maintained.
Not only that, each round of offense is not all with ordinary soldiers, but in a certain round of offense, there can be mixed with tens of thousands of soldiers and camp soldiers. This way, the Cao Cao soldiers at the head of the city are miserable for one day. When I came down, I didn't dare to relax at all.
Xu Rong's command once again amazed everyone. It was night, in the Huangfu Chaobo camp, the lieutenant generals were confident in taking Puyang.
In Puyang City, Cao Cao’s army wailed again. Although Cao Cao didn’t want to admit it, he knew in his heart that he had been defeated twice in Xu Rong’s hands, and if nothing unexpected happened, he would soon have the first place. Three times.
Cao Cao took into account the morale of the army and his own face, but Xiahoudun didn't consider so much. There were some things Cao Cao couldn't do, but he had to do it.
In the city of Puyang, among the county officials, Cao Cao was also gathering generals for discussion. After Cao Cao finished speaking, Xiahou Dun stood up and said: "General, in the opinion of the general, we must consider withdrawing. Our army is newly defeated and morale. The 50,000 army fled back to the city with less than 20,000, plus the 5,000 defenders in the city. There were only more than 20,000. The morale of the Sizhou army outside the city came to attack with the victory. From the perspective of the war, Xu Rong is not an easy generation. Rather than fighting the Sizhou army in Puyang City, he should lead the 20,000 elite to break through, save his strength, and then fight the Sizhou army."
"Yes, Lord, this is the elite after the real war. With them, we can smoothly train more powerful soldiers." Le Jin said from the side;
"Puyang city is strong, the Sizhou army is starting to attack the city, how can we give up so easily, we are not as good as the Sizhou army in the field battle, can't it be impossible to hold the city and defend?" Cao Ang immediately retorted;
Cao Anmin also stood up: "Yes, even if we are going to retreat, we have to tear off a few pieces of meat from Huangfu Chaobo, otherwise this battle will really come back without success."
Several veterans were quite cautious, especially Xiahou Dun. Together with Cao Cao, he suffered several losses in Xu Rong's hands. A few years ago he almost lost Cao Cao in his hands. It was Huangfu Chaobo who helped him. After that, he did not expect Xu Rong to become a subordinate of Huangfu Chaobo.
When he saw Xu Rong outside the White Horse City, Xiahou Dun still had the idea of avenging him back then. However, a battle a few days ago once again brought him back to reality. Xu Rong beat himself as soon as he shot. There was almost no fight back.
Today's battle, Xiahoudun clearly felt that Xu Rong did not try his best, but still let his army a little bit left and right, so at night, he did not hesitate to propose a breakthrough.
In his opinion, there are only 15,000 elites left in the 50,000 army, and the remaining nearly 10,000 soldiers serve as a cover for the army to break through. With the elite of the remaining five thousand years of war, it only takes a few months to replenish the army.
However, the two young generals were still not convinced. Although their army failed in the field battle, couldn't they defend the city?
According to what Cao Cao thought in his heart, in fact, he also wanted to lead the troops to retreat right away, but in the face of his eldest son and nephew, Cao Cao didn't want to admit defeat so easily. You know, this is their first battle. If the army defends the city and the defeat is not obvious It would be very detrimental to their future leaders to break through.
Thinking of this, Cao Cao looked at the two military divisions beside him. Sima Yi was too young. Seeing that Cao Cao looked at him, he immediately proposed not to give up so easily.
Cheng Yu was silent on the side while fondling Hu. Seeing Cao Cao looking towards him, he did not answer immediately, instead standing in front of the map, silent.
For a long time, Cheng Yucai asked Cao Cao: "Has the lord received news from Cao Hong?"
Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment and said, "Zilian sent a message the day before that he has captured Yongqiu. According to the schedule, he should have arrived at Chenliu City today, meaning Zhongde..."
"Yes, since we are going to evacuate sooner or later, the delay is one day. We only need to ensure the combat power of the most elite soldiers. The longer the delay, the longer time can be bought for General Zilian."
"Yes," Xiahou Dun clapped his hands and praised: "As expected of Mr. Cheng, since we can't hold Puyang, then it's okay to buy more time for Zilian..."
