In the next few days, Cao Xiu, also the three thousand tiger and leopard cavalry under Cao Chong, was still stationed in the east of Jiangling City, but the surrounding teams had already left the camp in an orderly manner.
Gangneung City suddenly became a lot more deserted Of course, Cao Chong has not been idle in the past few days, anyway, there is still any wine and money left from Xu Du, so Cao Chong went to make friends with the middle-level general of the tiger and leopard ride, that is, the centurion, of course, this matter is no longer Cao Chong's horse.
For Qu Wei, Cao Chong's own personal co-optation is already inferior, if the centurion himself also goes out to make friends, it is against common sense, to put it seriously, it may make Cao Mao Wang Ran have a gap in his heart.
This sentence is not a joke, Cao Mao is Cao Cao's clan, and his identity is worthy of Cao Chong's friendship, although Wang Ran is just a Qu lieutenant, but he has military merits, in the military camp where only military merits are the first to look forward, Cao Chong went to make friends with Wang Ran, no one dared to have an opinion, but you Cao Chong will make friends with those pawns after I wait to make friends, so where will we put our faces In this era, in the end, it is still a feudal era, and everyone is equal impossible If there is a class, you must use the same method to treat that class, for example, if you are worth millions, you will never be able to enter the world of billionaires.
So this matter Cao Chong was handed over to Zhao Yan and Guo Xiao, Zhao Yan has some talent for dealing with people, there are not many battlefield tricks, and he is a good hand in charge of construction in the future.
Strategists in troubled times, heroes in prosperous times The construction of the country is not something that can be developed in a word, nor can it be developed by fighting a war, but it still depends on the tireless and sleepy work of these ministers who have the ability to build.
On the one hand, Cao Chong gathered the hearts of the tigers and leopards, but on the other hand, his eyes were staring at the changes on the battlefield.
This time, Cao Cao really attacked with the whole army, and the mushroom-like white military tent outside Jiangling City is now only left with tigers and leopards, and the 200,000 army is almost overwhelmed.
However, the 200,000 troops did not attack at once, and were generally divided into three armies, the front, the middle and the rear.
The front army of 50,000 is mainly heavy armor, the Chinese army is 100,000, most of them are foot archers and auxiliary soldiers who need to be protected, of course, Cao Cao's military tent is also in the middle army, and the rear army is mostly based on cavalry, cavalry guerrilla ability is strong, and the rear army can coordinate the battlefield, if it is attacked on either side, it can go to the rescue.
The army was vigorous, and it drove towards Wuling City.
Of course, in addition to the front, middle and rear armies, Cao Cao also scattered thousands of scouts, just for fear of Liu Bei's ambush.
As the days passed, Liu Bei didn't know if he was afraid, and he didn't go out of the city to attack.
The sneak attack was a surprise attack, but Cao Cao had already taken precautions, so the sneak attack could no longer be used, and what made Liu Bei most upset was that it was raining in the sky, and under the autumn rain, the use of gunpowder would be restricted, which was the reason why Liu Bei did not attack.
But Liu Bei's failure to attack does not mean that Cao Cao will not come.
Three days later, Cao Cao set up camp on the edge of Cen Shui, and in the middle of ten days, he sent people to write a war letter and ask for a decisive battle Liu Bei is not a fool, in Wuling City, including the recruits who have been trained for less than a month, the total is less than 20,000 people, just this amount of manpower, if you want me to go out for a decisive battle, it will not be swallowed up by your tiger and wolf army, and it is estimated that you can't even spit out the bones.
After several days of unsuccessful invitations, Cao Cao also had anger in his heart, and immediately asked the Jingzhou soldiers to attack the city.
Since it is cannon fodder, of course, you can't use your own vital forces, and you can use Jingzhou soldiers, on the one hand, you can strengthen your control over Jingzhou, and on the other hand, you can avoid the threat from the rear, so why not Although Wuling City is close at hand, it is not so easy to gnaw this bone.
The autumn rain continued, so that Liu Bei could not bring the gunpowder out, but it did not mean that Liu Bei could not use gunpowder under the eaves, but it was Cao Cao's side, because of the autumn rain, he could only use his life to attack the city.
Boom, boom, boom The explosions one by one are the loss of the lives of more than a dozen people and more than a dozen people, and those who died directly can still say that if someone is blown off a leg or an arm, they will be wailing in the autumn rain.
At this time, there was no such thing as a battlefield medic, and in the end, they either had another explosives bag to end their lives, or they would die of excessive blood loss.
The battlefield is always bloody, no matter what dynasty it is.
Woohoo The rain of arrows continued.
Boom, boom, boom The cannon rang out non-stop.
In just a quarter of an hour, there were thick layers of corpses piled up under Wuling City, but the cloud ladder did not even touch the city wall.
Cao Cao was bored in his heart, but he knew that such a siege was tantamount to giving his life.
"Let's go back first" Jia Xu got the order, and a moment later, the sound of Mingjin came from Cao Cao's army.
As for the wounded soldiers on the battlefield, unless they have relatives and comrades, they have to wail under the city, and in the face of his ending, maybe it is just a cold arrow made up on Wuling City.
As for these Jingzhou soldiers, they know that they are dying, and the reason why they have to follow one after another is very simple.
Because of the attack, you may die, but if you retreat, you will definitely die Cao Cao's 50,000 heavy armor is displayed in it, if anyone dares to retreat, there is only one ending: hacking to death with a knife They can see the two situations clearly, so the choice will not be too difficult, as for whether there is a gap in their hearts, this is not a question that Cao Cao can control.
In Cao Cao's eyes, these two or thirty thousand people would have long been dead After Mingjin, Cao Cao looked up at the sky, it was dark and dreary, and the rain was falling tricklingly, and he didn't know when he would stop.
Do you want to wait for the rain to stop before attacking?
Cao Cao shook his head, if he waited for the rain to stop before attacking, would it be ten days or a month Cao Cao didn't have time, he couldn't wait So these Jingzhou soldiers were divided into sixteen groups by Cao Cao, and attacked Wuling City in eight ways, day and night, and for a while, the shouting and killing started again, but Cao Cao's face was not very good-looking.
This Wuling City doesn't seem to be able to be captured in a short period of time.
In the next few days, Cao Cao still attacked like this, and in the end, the Jingzhou soldiers were defeated, and Cao Cao had to let his descendants come forward, and Cao Cao was not distressed when those Jingzhou soldiers died, but these descendants were dead, and Cao Cao was heartbroken.
No, you can't do that.
In desperation, Cao Cao had no choice but to withdraw his troops again The ten-day Wuling offensive and defensive battles ended with Liu Bei's victory, Cao Cao left thirty or forty thousand corpses in Wuling City, but the gate of Wuling City remained the same.
The corpses were piled up like a mountain, filling in the moat of Wuling into a hill, let alone other places.
The rain mixed with blood and water flowed and tangled in the land of Wuling, turning into a blood-colored river and mixing into the Hanjiang River system.
In the past few days, even the surface of the Han River has a layer of demon red.
But the rain bore no signs of stopping
