Yongqiu, a thousand-year-old city, is a necessary place to go south from Yanzhou.
Since the dispute between Chu and Han, Yongqiu has been calm for hundreds of years, but in recent days, the surging Cao army has broken the peace of Yongqiu.
In addition to the high walls of Yongqiu City itself, there are many sandy mounds around the suburbs, which have become natural trenches and defensive points.
This is also the reason why there are often major wars in the land of Yongqiu for thousands of years, for example, hundreds of years ago, Xiang Yu debuted and became famous, and the first battle was to break the Qin army in this place, and more than 400 years later, the Tang general Zhang Xun used 4,000 elite soldiers to resist the enemy led by the general of An Lushan Ling Fox Chao, and the War of Resistance against Japan in later generations also had fierce battles in Yongqiu.
Cao Cao's army had just marched to the boundary of Yongqiu, and received the news of the defeat of Man Zhong and Liu Ye, so he immediately stopped the march, and the whole army retreated to Yongqiu City, and in the area around Yongqiu City, the sand and soil gang were connected with camp fences and horses to form a tight defense against Gongsun Bai's army.
For the defeat of the battle of Junshui, Cao Cao did not criticize Manzhong and Liu Ye too much, after all, the two of them held on to Zhang He's vanguard army for nearly half a month, and they had already won him time, even if they didn't fall into Zhang He's tricks, once Gongsun Bai's main army arrived, then Gongsun Bai would use magic to sacrifice the battleship, and the 30,000 Cao army would not be able to hold it after all.
Junshui can be lost, but the battle of Yongqiu cannot be lost, because this is his last belongings, and it is also the place where he will fight to the death with Gongsun Bai.
As long as you stick to Gongsun Bai's offensive, you can win a glimmer of life, otherwise the general trend is completely gone, and the next thing is just to survive.
He is forty-eight years old this year, and Gongsun Zhan was born in the same year, in the face of the young Gongsun Bai, if he is suppressed to retreat to the place of Guanzhong, and then wants to lie down and taste the courage and make a comeback, it will be even more difficult.
In this battle, he cannot be defeated, and if he loses, he will die Therefore, all his arrangements are to put on a posture of defending with all his strength and never attacking.
In addition to digging a deep trench in front of the city wall, erecting a high sheep and horse wall, and setting up an urn city in the city, the camp fence connected with the sand and soil hill around it is also three layers inside and three layers outside, and the horse rejection array alone is fifty or sixty steps wide, and there are trebuchets, rhubarb crossbows, and bed crossbows in the back.
The 300,000 Cao army, with Yongqiu City as the center, formed a strong defense line of twenty miles to resist the strongest soldier in the world.
In addition, Cao Cao gave a death order to all Cao troops, requiring all defenders to be divided into two shifts, the soldiers on duty should not leave their posts, and the soldiers who were not on duty must sleep with A.
In less than three days, Cao Cao personally beheaded more than 200 heads, some of whom secretly escaped, some who slept while on duty, some who slept without armor, and some who left their posts without permission during meals.
Under Cao Cao's bloody butcher's knife, those loose recruits quickly became conformist, and no one dared to joke about their heads.
Thundered In the northeast sky of Yongqiu City, there was a rolling muffled thunder, followed by a dark cloud emerging on the horizon, slowly obscuring the entire sky.
"It's coming," Cao Cao, who was standing at the head of the city, muttered.
The dark clouds that covered the sky and the sun were getting closer and closer, and it was gradually recognizable that it was a myriad of military horses galloping forward.
The embroidered flags like clouds, the halberds of the forest, the horseshoe of the drum, the smoke and dust of the fog, just like this, are swept in this way, not in a hurry, and slowly advance like this, like a monstrous flood, which is unavoidable and desperate.
When he ran to the front again, the whole ground was shaking, and Cao Jun, who was standing on Yongqiu City, even felt that the city under his feet was trembling, as if it was about to collapse at any time, and a desperate breath swept over Yongqiu like a hurricane.
This aura even Cao Cao felt, he didn't understand why he felt so vulnerable in the face of an enemy army of the same strength, and he felt like an ant in front of this sweeping army.
Soon, he found the reason.
The army of 300,000 people, stretching for more than ten miles, the horses and steps are mixed, and the pace is so neat and calm, and the chaotic sound is basically not heard, which means that at least seventy or eighty percent of the military horses are the same pace, in order to suppress those chaotic footsteps, which is an extremely terrifying thing.
And 300,000 people and horses are surging, except for the footsteps of people and horses, quietly, there is no imaginary situation where people shout and neigh, and there is a mess.
It was this terrifying neatness and silence that formed an overwhelming coercion that made the 300,000 Cao troops feel a kind of powerless despair.
Although the strength of the enemy army is almost the same as theirs, but the other party is a hundred battle elite soldiers, it is a cold-blooded animal crawling over in the sea of corpses and blood, and the whole body is filled with the smell of blood and murderous aura that rushes to the sky.
This is the real warrior, compared to these veterans of a hundred battles, at least 150,000 people in the 300,000 Cao army can only be counted as ordinary people who have just washed their mud feet on the ridges, and they are not at the same level at all.
The Gongsun army rushed closer and closer, and the trembling coercion became stronger and stronger, those veterans of the Cao army didn't feel anything, but those newly recruited soldiers couldn't help but tremble and be shocked.
Cao Cao obviously felt this panic, he calmed down, suddenly looked back, and shouted coldly to the soldiers behind him: "The whole army blows the trumpet" Woooooooo Hundreds of trumpeters raised the crooked horns at the same time, and in an instant, the distant and low horn horns rushed into the sky, and resounded over Yongqiu City in an instant.
The majestic and suffocating and desolate sound of the bull's horn, like a violent whirlwind, instantly blew throughout the city, sweeping a radius of twenty miles around Yongqiu City, making those originally restless recruits infected by this majestic horn sound and gradually quieted down.
Cao Cao saw that the Cao Jun around him finally quieted down, took a deep breath, and raised the Heavenly Sword in his hand high, piercing the sky.
Ho ho A thunderous cry immediately sounded among the cloud-like Cao Jun armor behind him.
Wave after wave of heroic calls finally completely infected the panicked recruits, and many recruits raised their weapons and shouted loudly.
In the midst of the cries of the landslide and tsunami, the 300,000 Gongsun army finally slowly stopped more than two hundred steps away from the Cao army's camp.
In the cloud-like embroidered flag, the flag of the Chinese army was wide open, and Gongsun Bai's crotch rode the sweaty and bloody horse that was as high as a divine beast, surrounded by more than a dozen brave generals, slowly came out, and galloped until more than 100 steps away from the city before stopping.
He looked at the Cao army on the city, nodded slightly, and secretly praised Cao Cao for being a dragon and phoenix among the people, originally wanted to surrender the army without a fight, causing coercion to the Cao army, disturbing its military morale, and reducing its morale, but he didn't expect Cao Cao to quickly inspire the morale of the 300,000 Cao army.
He slowly raised his head, looked at the opponent with thin eyes and long beard at the head of the city, smiled coldly, secretly lucked his dantian, and roared loudly: "Meng De, you are already in the ascendant, why bother to resist, if you increase the killing, it is better for you to apologize, I will ensure that your descendants are rich and secure, and you should also treat your soldiers well, and still retain your name, how?"
Guo Jia, who was not far behind him, couldn't help but laugh secretly, it was obvious that he would rather die than surrender to a hero like Cao Cao, Gongsun Bai put on such a high posture, it was nothing more than to claim to be a winner and suppress the morale of the other party.
Before the words fell, three sharp arrows fell from the city, like lightning, and went straight to Gongsun Bai.
The generals beside Gongsun Bai were shocked, and were about to ride out on horseback, wielding weapons to shield Gongsun Bai from the arrows, but saw a red light burst out, facing the three powerful arrows.
The three sharp arrows disappeared in a flash, and on top of the sweat and blood, Gongsun Bai stood tall, holding three long wolf tooth arrows in his hands like pinching chopsticks.
There was an uproar at the head of Yongqiu City, and all the soldiers couldn't help but gasp, because these three sharp arrows were not shot by others, they were shot by Xu Huang, a famous general of Cao Ying, and they were gently grabbed by Gongsun Bai like child's play.
"Carving insect skills, smiling and generous" Gongsun Bai laughed, and took out a horn compound treasure bow from his side, this is a six-stone longbow, I am afraid that only the Duke of Wei, who has a force of 102, can pull it in the whole world.
Woohoo Take the bow, set up the arrow, draw the bow, aim, loosen the string, all in one go, and when everyone reacted, the three wolf's tooth arrows shot like meteors towards the city tower.
The soldiers of the Cao army were shocked, Dian Wei and Xu Chu hurriedly stepped forward to block in front of Cao Cao, and many guards raised large shields to cover Cao Cao's front and head.

The sound of the sharp arrow breaking through the air was like the sound of wind and thunder, whining and flying over the heads of the soldiers, and went straight to the big banner of the word "Cao" fluttering high.
Click With the sound of wood cracking, the flagpole of the big flag was shot into four pieces and fell with a bang.
Gongsun Bai put away the longbow with satisfaction, and secretly smug himself for his archery skills, since the force broke through to 102, he turned to practice archery skills, and finally achieved a small success.
Ho ho After a moment of silence, the Gongsun army under the city let out a thunderous cheer, and the cheers spread all around, although most of the Gongsun soldiers did not know what was happening, but they knew that something good must happen, and they also responded, and the cheers were endless, and they continued for a long time.
And those Cao army defenders, who were far away from the city and did not know where to go, heard the cheers of Gongsun Jun, and they were even more panicked and at a loss, and hurriedly sent people to investigate.
"Release the arrow" Cao Cao was furious and roared.
The crossbow arrows rained down the city, but Gongsun Bai had already led the crowd to beat the horses and withdraw from the range of the crossbow arrows.
When he turned around, Gongsun Bai smiled coldly: "The heavy crossbowmen are out of the ranks, let the thief army know what a real strong crossbow is" Before the words fell, countless crossbow archers carried Wanjun repeater crossbows, lined up, and a three-edged steel arrow with a branch several feet long was aimed at the sky above the city tower.
"Wind, wind, gale, gale" With the roar of the mountains and the sea, thousands of crossbow arrows swept into the air, with a sharp sound of breaking the sky, and then turned into an endless rain of arrows, pouring towards the city tower.
