Chapter 678: Cao Junzhong's plan

Xiahoudun and they really didn't dare to give up Luoyang City, they were outside the city to make sure there was an ambush.

But Zhang Yu's suspicion played a role, and they didn't dare to be sure, so they didn't dare to make a decision easily.

"You can't wait, you have to do something." After waiting for a long time, Xiahoudun said.

"If Zhang Yu wants to go, we don't care, let's focus on Luoyang, it's better to send some soldiers and horses to block Zhang Yu, and part of them are ready to capture Luoyang City." Xiahoudun said again.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Ang thought carefully.

"At today's speed, Zhang Yu's cavalry can reach Luoyang in two hours, and we will break through Luoyang City in two hours." Cao Ang said.

Xiahou Yuan said: "Yes or no, it will take two hours for Zhang Yu's soldiers and horses to rush back, but it is impossible for him to know the news of our attack immediately, at least one hour later, plus, if we send troops to block it, as long as one hour, then we will have four hours." ”

"According to calculations, even if Zhang Yu has too many soldiers and horses hidden in the city, at most thousands, four hours, can completely defeat Luoyang City."

After Xiahou Yuan finished speaking, several people felt that it made sense.

It is certain that there are cats in the city, but for now, the biggest possibility is Zhang Yu's suspicious plan, dragging himself and letting him leave with the prisoners and a lot of baggage.

Xiahoudun and they decided to take action.

Xiahou Yuan took 30,000 soldiers and horses to prepare to stop Zhang Yu and them.

With 30,000 soldiers and horses, Xiahou Yuan was confident that he could block Zhang Yu for at least an hour, or even longer.

As long as Luoyang City is captured quickly every day, then they can retreat into the city and hold Luoyang.

Xiahoudun's analysis was correct, it was not so easy for Zhang Yu to come back.

I've been walking for half a day, and it will take a few hours to come back with a fast horse.

What's more, they still have 30,000 troops ready to resist Zhang Yu.

After the assignment was completed, Xiahoudun did not hesitate and immediately launched an attack.

"The four city gates will attack together and take Luoyang in the shortest possible time." Since you want to move, then use the power of thunder.

"Kill." Xiahoudun brandished his sword and ordered the whole army to attack.

Tens of thousands of troops divided into several parts and slaughtered at the city gates.

The offensive is swift and full of all the attack.

"Kill."

As they rushed to the bottom of the city, hundreds of defenders suddenly appeared above the walls.

"Shoot the arrows."

Hundreds of men guarded a small area above the gate, and then concentrated their arrows to prevent them from approaching the gate.

"Sure enough."

The ambush appeared, and Xiahoudun was relieved.

Hundreds of people, a city gate with hundreds of archers, that can only delay them for less than half an hour.

"The archers suppress and attack with all their might."

Xiahoudun was also afraid of accidents, so he let the soldiers attack with all their might.

Although the casualties were not small, because the hundreds of people in the city attacked fiercely, Xiahoudun still let the soldiers rush forward in order to rush forward in order to gain time.

However, there were still too few enemies on the city wall, and the power to counterattack after being suppressed by Xiahoudun and their archers was small.

Cao's army soon rushed to the city gate and attacked the city gate.

The gates of the city were slammed, and the soldiers of the city could not suppress them.

In less than half a burnt of incense, on the city wall where Xiahoudun was located, Zhang Yu's soldiers suffered too many casualties to support it and scattered in all directions.

"Great."

There was no interference, and the soldiers slammed the city gate with all their might, and it took less than half a stick of incense to crash open the city gate.

"Concentrate your forces and kill them."

The city gate opened, and Xiahoudun did not hesitate and immediately ordered an attack.

Now that the gates are open, there can be no more hesitation.

More than 10,000 troops poured into the city gates.

When they entered the city gates, the other gates were immediately unable to hold them and retreated.

As a result, the four gates were breached, and Cao's army successfully entered the city gates.

"It's done, even if Zhang Yu has any conspiracy, we don't have to worry about defending the city." Xiahoudun said excitedly.

Indeed, Xiahoudun's biggest goal now is to take Luoyang City.

Luoyang is too important, it is the fulcrum of their western front.

After entering the city, they met resistance again, but the other side did not have many soldiers and horses, and more than 1,000 people blocked the main road.

"Kill."

Xiahoudun did not hesitate and decisively ordered an attack, which, in his opinion, could break through their defenses with a single blow.

Sure enough, the more than 1,000 soldiers did not resist for long before retreating.

They fought and retreated, leaving behind many corpses.

Xiahoudun and they stormed in, rushing all the way, wanting to control the city as soon as possible.

However, after they had made a long way there were more than a thousand enemy troops, and they were ready, and after killing and wounding hundreds of them, they threw away their bows and arrows, and continued to fight and retreat with their spears.

"Damn, so I tried to delay time, and the sword and shield soldiers charged me and clung to them."

Xiahoudun was angry, and after he attacked the city, the enemy kept sticking to them, making him suffer a lot of losses.

The four-way attack, the progress of the four-way is good, although there are enemies, but they are all retreating, as if they are deliberately delaying time.

Entering another section, they encountered more than a thousand enemy troops.

In this way, after a few times, more than 3,000 soldiers and horses from Jiangdong gathered.

Xiahoudun felt more and more that something was wrong, the enemy army had lost more than 1,000 in battle, and now there were more than 3,000, adding up to 5,000 people.

It's fine if it's in one direction, but it's a big problem if it's in all four directions.

How could there be so many enemy troops, and there was a big difference from what was predicted before, and the total total was only three or five thousand.

Xiahoudun felt bad in his heart, but he couldn't think about it at this time.

"Quickly, destroy the enemy army as soon as possible, and in addition, divide a part of the people to control the city gate and the city wall." Xiahoudun ordered.

Xiahoudun's reaction was not slow, but it was too late, and their army had already penetrated deep into the interior of Luoyang City.

"Kill."

Suddenly, there was a shout of killing, and the enemy troops who were being pursued by them suddenly began to counterattack.

"What, there is an ambush in the city, so many troops."

Xiahoudun was shocked, because at this time, it was not more than 3,000 soldiers and horses that rushed towards them, but more than 10,000 soldiers and horses.

More than 10,000 Jiangdong soldiers and horses slaughtered them.

The other three gates are similar, but the strength of the troops is different, and the overall is about 10,000.

There were so many soldiers and horses in the city suddenly, and there were 50,000 of them in the four roads.

Of course, at this time, Xiahoudun didn't know about it, and he immediately sent people to investigate the situation of the other city gates.

The news he received made his head bang and he knew that something was wrong.

"Tell the eldest prince that we are surrounded by enemies, and let him go back with the team." Xiahoudun said to the people around him.

The situation is already obvious, although they are not surrounded at this time, as long as Zhang Yu comes, they will definitely not be able to run.

It's too late to withdraw now, why did Jiangdong's soldiers and horses launch a counteroffensive, in order to stick to them.

With similar troops, Xiahoudun had no way to withdraw his army.
