Chapter 528: Attack!

After this small episode, Cao Cao continued to order: "Miaocai, an hour after Meng Qi launched an attack, you will urge your soldiers to launch a general attack from the south gate!" I will distribute all the canisters of fire oil to your men! As for the specific offensive strategy, I'll talk to you later! ”

After Xiahou Yuan hugged his fists and promised, he glanced at Ma Chao and Gan Ning with a very hateful face.

This made Ma Chao, who was unhappy in his heart, jump out directly, and hugged his fists with an uneven face: "Your Majesty, why did you give all the oil cans to General Xiahou?" ”

Cao Cao glanced at Xiahou Yuan, and didn't say much, just smiled: "Because the south gate will be the main direction of attack."

Hearing this, Ma Chaoshun snapped his mouth, and his face was dumbfounded.

Cao Cao glanced at the generals and asked in a loud voice, "Do you have any other questions, generals?" ”

After waiting for a while, Cao Cao saw that no one raised any doubts, so he raised his voice and said, "Since there is no problem, then go back to the camp and prepare!" ”

The generals agreed in unison, Yuguan withdrew from the big tent, but Xiahou Yuan and Guo Jia stayed.

Cao Cao carefully instructed Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan nodded, and said with a solemn fist: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the last general will definitely be able to capture the South City Gate!" ”

Cao Cao nodded, patted Xiahou Yuan's shoulder, and said with a smile: "I believe that Miaocai will definitely be able to do it!" ”

Hearing this, Xiahou Yuan couldn't help but show excitement.

Cao Cao patted Xiahou Yuan's shoulder again, turned his head and asked Guo Jia on the side: "Fengxiao, do you think there is anything inappropriate about my arrangement?" ”

Guo Jia thought for a moment and arched his hand: "Since Your Majesty plans to concentrate on the use of fire oil cans. Why not just concentrate all the canisters on one point? ”

Cao Cao was stunned for a moment, thinking of the truth of the later generations, and then touched his chin and nodded: "Feng Xiao's words can be described as a word to wake up the person in the dream!" ”

"Wonderful. Abandon the use of oil canisters on both sides of the city, and concentrate all the thunderstorms on one point! I want to surprise Liu Qi and Zhuge Liangjunchen! Cao Cao's eyes shone with excitement.

Early the next morning, the war drums of the Wei army were beaten early, and then the army reorganized from the Jing Han army launched in the north

Under the cover of catapults and heavy bed crossbows, tens of thousands of soldiers of the reorganized army pushed various siege equipment to attack the city walls.

The battle began to heat up, with the Wei army storming the walls and gates like raging waves, and soldiers from both sides engaged in hand-to-hand combat on the city. The sound of killing shook the sky, and the soldiers on both sides who were killed kept rolling down from the city.

However, the reorganization army is slightly inferior on the whole. After all, the Jing Han army has the advantage of terrain, and the combat effectiveness of the reorganized army is obviously inferior to the elite soldiers of the main force of the Wei army.

However, the reorganization army at this moment is completely different from the time when it fought against the Wei army in Jingzhou in the north, and after the iron-blooded tempering in recent months, the reorganization army, a new army that has not been formed for a long time, has been completely reborn. In time. It is believed that the reorganized army will be able to grow into an elite division comparable to the main army of the Wei army.

Under the personal leadership of generals at all levels, the reorganized army continued to launch round after round of fierce attacks on the city wall, and the offensive was wave after wave, and the battle lasted for nearly half an hour, and both sides suffered considerable losses.

Gan Ning stared at the battlefield in front of him, showing an anxious look, and suddenly ordered the herald: "Let the follow-up soldiers also join the attack for the general!" ”

"Yes!"

After hearing this, the herald beside Gan Ning answered with his hand and immediately ran down to convey Gan Ning's order!

A moment later, the 10,000 true elite of the Wei army, led by a mid-ranking Wei general, left the main formation and advanced towards the city walls. At this moment, the battle on the head of the city is in full swing, although the soldiers of the reorganized army have attacked the head of the city in many places. However, it was unable to expand the results of the battle, and was in a stalemate with the Jing Han army.

Suddenly, several barrels of boiling oil were dumped from the shooting holes on the upper edge of the gates, and then several torches fell, and the whole car became a torch, and the soldiers pushed the vehicles to crash several times, and finally were forced to run out of the doorway.

On the head of a city on the city wall, the soldiers of the Jing Han army desperately counterattacked the Wei army that rushed to this city, the battle was extremely fierce, and from time to time there were scenes of the same death, the situation was more and more unfavorable for the Wei army, and the Wei soldiers who fought at the head of the city were killed one after another, and were compressed backwards by the tide of Jing and Han soldiers who kept coming up.

Suddenly, the Jing Han army, who was fighting fiercely in front, felt that the Wei army in front of them seemed to be different from just now, with stronger momentum and more fearless of death. At this moment, the Wei army that was fighting with the Jing Han army was not the soldiers of the reorganized army, but the elite of the Wei army who had just reached the top of the city through the flying tower.

The elite of the Wei army shouted wildly, and attacked forward with an indomitable momentum, a Wei soldier did not avoid the long knife facing the oncoming slash, and actually roared and slashed at the other party's head, the other party was taken aback, and hurriedly returned the knife to parry, and opened the obstacle knife that attacked him with a sonorous sound, and the Wei soldier immediately turned around, the barrier knife shrank back, and then slashed out horizontally towards the opponent's abdomen, only to see the blood light burst, and the other side fell down with a frightened look.

As more and more elite soldiers of the Wei army joined the bloody battle at the head of the city, the situation on the battlefield changed again, and it became more and more favorable to the Wei army.

However, with the two fierce generals Huang Zhong and Huo Jun leading 5,000 Jing Han elites to join the bloody battle at the head of the city, the situation on the battlefield gradually returned to a stalemate.

The bloody battle lasted for nearly half an hour. At this time, the Wei army in the west began to attack the city of Changsha.

The Wei army attacked Changsha City on the west and north sides at the same time, and the offensive was like a tsunami like a landslide, and the west and north walls were crumbling under such a thrilling onslaught.

Liu Qi paced back and forth in the temporary palace, his heart was extremely anxious, there were only Zhuge Liang and Yi by Liu Qi's side, the two did not speak, they both frowned, in the face of the strong pressure brought by the Wei army, Zhuge Liang at this time has completely lost the chic posture that he usually has.

A scout hurriedly ran into the lobby, "Report, return to Your Majesty, Prime Minister, the Wei army has launched a strong attack on the west and north sides at the same time, and our army has suffered great losses!" The two generals, Huang Zhong and Huo Jun, asked His Majesty to send reinforcements as soon as possible! ”

Hearing this, Liu Qi's face turned pale for a moment, and then he immediately set his eyes on Zhuge Liang's body.

Zhuge Liang pondered: "The Wei army should be brewing a bigger offensive, so now we can't increase our troops to the west and north!" ”

Liu Qi frowned, and said worriedly: "However, the west and north sides are fighting quite hard!" (To be continued......)
