Chapter 1033: Two Battalions Destroyed (Page 1/1)

Cao Ren was a very capable Cao general, and Zhang Liao could not break through his defenses several fierce attacks.

In the end, the two sides fought hard there, constantly investing more troops.

In about three hours, the more than 20,000 troops who were surrounded were all wiped out.

During these three hours, there were a large number of casualties both inside and outside.

Both sides suffered huge casualties, but Zhang Liao and the others still did not give up, attacking wave after wave, which made Cao Ren very helpless and could only accompany him to the end.

The bloody battle continued, and the casualties continued to rise.

On the other side, Zhao Yun suddenly joined the battlefield and won a big victory.

His attack was so effective that it was impossible for Cao's army to retreat immediately.

Huang Zhong and the others came out and dealt a huge blow to them.

Under the double blow, Cao's army was in a dilemma, only five miles away from the city, but it was difficult for them to retreat.

Xiahou Yuan led the army back and tried to rescue the trapped army.

But Zhang Yu's army is too resilient, and they will not retreat from the battle.

Xiahou Yuan's attacks could not be effective several times.

The two armies fought like this, and the encircled Cao army suffered heavy casualties.

Most of the more than 10,000 infantry led by Zhang Xiu had been killed in battle, and he grabbed the war horse and took command of the cavalry.

Under the leadership of Zhang Xiu, they still can't turn the tables around, and they are still fighting hard.

The army suffered more and more casualties.

Zhang Xiu chose to break through.

He broke through from the flank, but he was targeted by Huang Xu, who pursued him with an army.

The two sides fought outside the city.

Xiahou Yuan saw that Zhang Yu's army had sent a detachment of soldiers and horses to outflank him.

"Let's go."

Don't dare to delay, the army inside can't be saved, so he can only go first.

Not long after Xiahou Yuan left, Zhang Xiu broke through with dozens of people and chased after him.

Zhang Xiu originally broke through with thousands of people, but there were only a few dozen people who could break through.

Seeing them running in the direction of the city, several people did not pursue, but concentrated on exterminating the Cao army inside.

After some fighting, Huang Zhong wiped out the army inside, capturing more than 8,000 prisoners and more than 20,000 horses.

After the victory, the camp of the Cao army was occupied, and Xi Zhi asked people to reorganize the military camp and prepare to be stationed here.

"The strategy of the military advisor is really effective, and finally this Cao camp is taken, and then you can directly attack the city wall." Huang Zhong said.

Xi Zhicai looked at Cao Ying and nodded with satisfaction and said, "We will strengthen Cao Ying, and we can launch a strong attack in about two days." ”

Xi Zhicai thought again in his heart: "At that time, Fusang's army will also be able to participate in the war." ”

Cao Ren's side fought for a long time, and finally retreated.

In this battle, on Xi Zhicai's side, Cao's army lost more than 80,000 people, and Zhang Yu's army lost about 30,000 people.

On Cao Ren's side, Cao's army lost more than 40,000 people, while Zhang Yu's army lost 60,000.

In general, it was Zhang Yu who won, after all, he completely annihilated a military camp, and he was only 20,000 people besieged and finally wiped out.

Cao's army retreated, and both barracks outside the city were lost.

In another battlefield, in the battle between Tai Shici and Cao Ang, both sides lost more than 100,000 people each, and neither had the strength to attack.

Cao's army lost more than 100,000 people, and had to transfer more than 30,000 people from other places to prevent Tai Shici's sudden attack.

In this way, Cao Cao's troops were even tighter.

After this battle, Zhang Yu and the others also stopped for a while, they occupied the two large camps of the Cao army, and began to strengthen the camp, preparing to camp there.

The next day, 100,000 Fusang troops came to support, and at the same time, a large number of grain, grass and siege equipment were also transported.

Zhang Yu called Xi Zhicai to discuss with Guo Jia, but several generals Zhang Yu did not dare to let them come, lest the camp be suddenly attacked and there would be no one to preside.

"Despite the victory, this Yecheng is still very strong, but what can be done?" Zhang Yu asked.

At this time, Zhang Yu was a little anxious, he couldn't use troops on the Yangzhou side if he didn't break through Yecheng as soon as possible, and Cheng Yu was ready to attack again.

"Lord, Cao Cao is well prepared, and there is no good way, only to work hard." Guo Jia said.

Xi Zhicai couldn't think of any good way, although the two had a good plan, but Cao Jun's smart people were also a lot of people.

Zhang Yu has already achieved a strategic advantage, as long as he doesn't make a big mistake, he is desperate.

Zhang Yu sighed and said, "Okay, two days later, we will start storming the city, and we won't stop attacking until we take the city." ”

Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses still have more than 600,000, and the rear is still replenished from time to time.

In Pingcheng, Xinbei, Zhang Zhao and others were collecting food and salaries everywhere, and they were training soldiers and horses in various counties.

The number of soldiers and horses trained in each county may be 35,000 in a county, and these 35,000 people do not put much pressure on a county, but the total number of troops is more.

This time, a total of 200,000 soldiers and horses were recruited and trained.

After training, they will be sent to the front line to replenish the main battle force.

Then just keep training.

In Jiangdong, Ling Cao has been training more than a thousand officers.

The military academy established here is not very famous, because there are no big officials here, and the training is all middle and lower-level officials.

There were no middle-level officers before, and later let the young generals that Zhang Yu wanted to train also come here for training, and a group of excellent middle-level officers were produced.

Ling Cao was very aware of the role of this military school.

It has always been the army, and it is these middle- and lower-level officers who can really reflect the combat effectiveness.

Senior generals can only grasp the general direction, lead troops, train the army, and these are usually these people who are accomplishing.

Generals, commanders-in-chief can generally only focus on the big aspects.

Zhang Yu's war machine was all running, and the development of the entire territory inevitably slowed down, or even stopped.

At this time, Zhang Yu did not carry out any major projects except for the continuation of road construction.

Two days passed quickly.

Zhang Yu's support has also arrived, and it's time to start the war again.

"Burn all the city gates to me, we can't get in, and this Cao army doesn't want to come out." Zhang Yu ordered.

After burning the city gate, Cao's army had to block it with stones, and then they couldn't get out, and they couldn't attack the camp if they wanted to.

The best way to burn down the city gate is to use alcohol, smash a few more alcohol clay pots, and a rocket can solve it.

The city gate was burned down, and if so, Cao Jun immediately blocked the city gate with stones.

"It seems that we can only stumble to the end." Cao Cao said with some amazement.

When the city gate is blocked, many of their tactics will not be used, what night attack, what cavalry will attack out of the city, all this will not be carried out.

Zhang Yu's army began to attack, attacking on three sides to the north and east and west at the same time.

Zhang Yu invested two-thirds of his troops to attack, and the other part of the cavalry wandered around, and there were all kinds of unexpected situations.

Cao Cao took the initiative to cut off Yecheng's support and did not give Zhao Yun a chance to sneak attack.
