One thousand three hundred seventy-four mercilessly crushed


Hao Zhao is still the same Hao Zhao, but Hedong is not Chen Cang, Zhang Liao and Gan Ning are not Zhuge Liang, and history cannot repeat itself again.

In history, there are three reasons why Hao Zhao was able to defend Chencang with 3,000 people and block the attack of Zhuge Liang's 100,000 army for more than 20 days.

First, Hao Zhao was good at guarding and preparing in advance, with armor, feather arrows, rolling stones, and wood preparations, and successfully defended Chencang Pass with the reinforcements of Fei Yao and Zhang He, causing Zhuge Liang to retreat in the name of "running out of grain".

Second, Chencang is located at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, built on the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, even though the Han army is as many as 100,000, but the real attack at the same time is only more than 10,000 people.

Otherwise, the difference in strength between the two sides is close to thirty times, and Chen Cang can be broken through with just a pile of people.

Third, the main reason is that Zhuge Liang did not make up his mind to attack Chencang this time, and received a letter of help from his brother Zhuge Jin before sending troops, because the Wei army led by Sima Yi and Cao Xiu attacked Lujiang and Weixu on a large scale, Zhuge Liang intended to encircle Wei to save Zhao and relieve the pressure on the allied Eastern Wu, so he hurriedly raised troops to attack Chencang.

Before sending troops, Zhuge Liang made up his mind that he could defeat Chen Cang, and if he couldn't beat it, he surrounded Wei to save Zhao and relieve Dongwu from the siege, so he didn't have the iron heart to attack Chen Cang from the beginning.

As a result, the battle of Hefei ended with a complete victory for Eastern Wu, under the command of Lu Xun, Zhou Yi broke his hair to earn Cao Xiu, Xu Sheng showed his skills, Cao Xiu, Jia Kui exploded all over the ground to find teeth, and the loss of troops was defeated in embarrassment.

Compared with the complete victory of Eastern Wu, Zhuge Liang encountered Hao Zhao's difficult bone, and Sima Yi sent Zhang He and Wang Shuang to help, so Zhuge Liang could only lie that "the food was exhausted" and retreated, and on the way to retreat, he beheaded Cao Wei's general Wang Shuang, saving some face.

The city is located in the basin, the surrounding terrain is flat, the area is vast, and it is most suitable for a large army to fight, not to mention 50,000 people, even if there are 100,000 or 200,000 people, there is enough space to put into the battle and besiege Anyi City from all directions.

"Kill, the first to climb the city will be rewarded with ten taels of gold, and the official will be promoted to the third level" Zhang Liao galloped back and forth under the city with a horse and a sword, and loudly commanded the soldiers to attack the city.

The four walls of Anyi City are about 20 li, and the average length of each wall is about 5 li, and the defenders in the city are only 5,000 people, and some people must be left to patrol the city to guard against internal response, so on average, there are less than 1,020 defenders on each wall.

The 1,200-strong defenders were distributed on the 2,500-meter city wall, almost two meters away from a soldier, and the defense was sparse and could not form an effective deterrent to the Han army under the city.

The crossbow arrows shot were scattered, and the rolling stones were also few, which allowed the Han army to attack the city without any scruples.

On the other hand, the Han army under the city was as many as 50,000, and Zhang Liao and Gan Ning adopted the strategy of concentrating their forces to storm a city wall, and only sent 5,000 men to attack the north gate and the east gate respectively, while each led 20,000 horses to storm the west gate and the south gate.

The city wall was full of killing sounds, arrows were raining down, the city was agitated, the horns were whimpering, and countless Han troops rushed to the foot of the city wall like a carp crossing the river, with shields on their heads and ladders on their shoulders, shouting and roaring to launch a stormy attack on the shore of Anyi City.

"Shoot me hard" Zhang Liao galloped on his horse, shouted loudly and ordered the crossbowmen to fire arrows in unison, suppressing the Wei army on the city wall with firepower, covering the soldiers besieging the city, and reducing the casualties of his own side as much as possible.

Among the 20,000 Han troops at the foot of the southern city wall, nearly 5,000 professional archers were obtained, and after Zhang Liao's order, they bent their bows and arrows one by one, pulled the bowstring like a full moon, and shot wave after wave of arrows on the city wall.

"Whoosh" For a time, arrows rained down like locusts from the sky, and the Wei army on the city wall was miserable, but the soldiers on their own side were outnumbered, not to mention suppressing the Han archers under the city, and even unable to cause decent damage to the Han army carrying the ladder.

This made the besieging Han army unscrupulous, the shouts of the charge were mixed with hearty laughter, the dust under the feet was flying, and soon approached the city wall, leaning on the city wall one after another, resisting the oval shield above his head, and bravely climbing up.

More than a dozen thunderbolts made a "squeak" sound, slowly approached the moat, threw one rock after another, and flew up to the city with the sound of the howling wind, and the defenders on the smashed city wall screamed bitterly, screaming one after another, the bones smashed by the boulder were broken, and the brains burst into countless people.

After an hour of mutual shooting, the Wei troops on the south and west walls not only did not take advantage, but were killed and wounded by the dense rain of arrows and thunderbolts under the city, resulting in the already overstretched defense being even more careless, full of loopholes.

Gan Ning held a shield in his left hand and a single-edged halberd in his right hand, wearing a strong and stubborn one, taking the lead, climbing along the ladder to the top, jumping and flying to the top of the city.

"A traitor who doesn't know whether he is alive or dead, and he dares to resist stubbornly" Gan Ning's halberd flew, slashed several defenders in a row, rushed through an open area, and covered the soldiers behind him to enter the city, "Those who know the times put down their weapons, tie their hands and capture, Rao Er will not die" Following Gan Ning's pace, one after another soldiers climbed to the top of the city, brandished swords and spears and launched a fierce attack on the defenders, and the defenders on the city wall were in chaos.

With the passage of time, countless Han troops climbed the city wall along one cloud ladder after another, from dozens of people at the beginning to hundreds of people, and then to hundreds, and finally broke through a thousand people, completely occupying the upper hand, and the defenders who killed retreated step by step, and finally the army's heart collapsed, and they all hugged their heads and ran away.

Gan Ning wielded an iron halberd, slashed violently, cut off the iron cable and put down the drawbridge, rushed to the city cone and roared past, launching an earth-shattering impact on the city gate, and soon the city gate was "banged" open, and tens of thousands of Han troops swarmed in, instantly drowning the poor Wei army in the crowd.

Seeing that more than half of the 5,000 defenders had been lost, Hao Zhao knew that the general situation was gone, turned over his horse with a sword in his hand, and planned to lead his troops to break through.

As soon as he got off the city wall, he met Zhang Liao, who was holding a seven-star disk dragon knife.

"Your Wei general is Hao Zhao, the general of Hedong" Zhang Liao pointed at the big knife in his hand and persuaded him to surrender loudly, "Those who know the times are Junjie, quickly dismount and surrender, and spare you from dying." ” Hao Zhao gritted his teeth and angrily looked at him, urged the horse forward, and brandished his sword to take Zhang Liao directly: "If the husband dies, he will die, why bother with his lips and tongue Today, Hao Zhao is only dead, eat my sword" "Self-sufficient" Zhang Liao snorted coldly, and the tiger wielding the dragon knife in his hand was vigorous, and he cut off Hao Zhao's sword with just one combination.

With a backhand knife, he knocked Hao Zhao off the horse with the back of the knife, and shouted "Come on, tie me up" t1706231537:
