Chapter 563 Retreat without Breaking the City in 3 Days

Although Xiang'an County is guarded by tens of thousands of people at the moment, it is not the place where they focus on defense. The focus of defense is on several other counties in the north.

Zhang Yu and the others approached quietly, and half a day later, Zhang Yu and the others were already more than 30 miles away from the city.

"Order the soldiers to rest, and we will launch an attack in the evening when they are eating." Zhang Yu ordered.

Zhang Yu and the others began to rest.

By evening, the soldiers had rested and had eaten their fill.

"Soldiers, this battle must break through the county as quickly as possible." After gathering the army, Zhang Yu mobilized before the battle.

"Yes."

"mighty."

"mighty."

"mighty."

The whole army boiled and obeyed Zhang Yu's order.

"Set off."

Pointing at Zhang Yu's long halberd, the army began to advance.

Half an hour after setting off, Zhang Yu and the others were discovered, but Zhang Yu and the others had already penetrated within a dozen miles.

Xiang'an County panicked.

Five miles outside Xiang'an County, a checkpoint was originally set up, defended by 5,000 soldiers and horses.

"Break through their checkpoint." Zhang Yu roared.

Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses pushed over neatly. Before the people arrived, the arrow array arrived, and a large number of arrows slanted down.

The scene of thousands of arrows attacking was very scary and chilling.

Soldiers easily broke through this small checkpoint, which was originally used as a warning and to delay the time for the city.

But facing Zhang Yu's army, he didn't last for a quarter of an hour.

Flatten the checkpoint, and the army besieged the city.

"Listen, garrison in the city,

Our lord said, if you can block us for three days, we will take the initiative to withdraw. After the siege, Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to shout.

"seriously."

"We just need to hold on for three days, three days will be fine."

"Haha, if you can't beat Zhang Yu, it's not easy to defend for three days."

"I hope Zhang Yu didn't lie to us."

Zhang Yu's sudden shout stunned the enemies in the city.

Who has ever seen a war fought like this.

Attack for three days, if there is no breakthrough within three days, then they will retreat.

There is something like this?

But Zhang Yu did just that.

Before the start of the battle this time, Zhang Yu shouted to the head of the city, as long as he defended for three days and held it, then Zhang Yu would stop attacking.

The guards on the top of the city are also full of confidence. No matter whether Zhang Yu will keep his promise, their morale will be high within three days.

"This Zhang Yu is too arrogant." The guard said.

The lieutenant next to him also looked optimistic, and then said: "This Zhang Yu claims to have never been defeated, so he is naturally arrogant. This time, as long as we hold on for three days, his myth will be shattered, and the general will be famous at that time." It's noisy."

The Lord General is naturally in a good mood, and he naturally has confidence in three days.

"There are 60,000 defenders in our city. Although 50,000 are second-line troops, with this number, we can beat them no matter how hard we try." The general said.

There was optimism in the city, and they knew they couldn't stop Zhang Yu, but that didn't mean they couldn't stop Zhang Yu for three days.

This Xiang'an County is a small county. The county seat is not big, but it can accommodate a population of 200,000. They have reinforced it before, and they have also stockpiled some defensive items.

The city is very lively, and they are also very optimistic.

Zhang Yu quietly watched them bustling under the city.

"My lord, if we can't attack after three days, do we really have to withdraw our troops?" said a lieutenant next to Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu nodded and said, "That's right, we value integrity the most, and if we really can't win this time, we really have to withdraw our troops."

"My lord, it's no problem to capture this small city of Xiang'an, but why did my lord promise that they will withdraw their troops? Doesn't this make them defend desperately?" said the lieutenant general.

"Yes, they will definitely defend desperately, but after they tried their best, they found that if they still can't defend, they will collapse quickly." Zhang Yu said: "Tell them in half an hour, if we break through the city within three days , there is not a single army left inside."

"My lord, no, if this is the case, they will definitely defend the city with all their might, and we will have to pay a higher price." The deputy general said.

Zhang Yu raised his hand to restrain him and said: "I naturally have my own ideas, besides, we don't have time. This battle has been carefully planned, but we have to capture Xiangyang City within two days, otherwise it will be very detrimental to our battle." influences."

Half an hour later, Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to shout.

The city shook again.

"Hmph, Zhang Yu is too arrogant."

"Let the soldiers do their best, not only to prevent them, but also to kill them in large numbers."

"What the hell is Zhang Yu going to do?"

When the guards in the city heard the news, they were so angry, Zhang Yu didn't pay attention to them at all.

The soldiers also talked a lot, and their previous joy immediately wavered.

That's why Zhang Yu called out again after half an hour, just to make them happy and sad.

If they win, they can survive, but if they lose, they will be completely defeated, and even their lives are not guaranteed.

They were also very surprised that Zhang Yu made a surprise attack here this time, because they knew that Sun Ce sent troops, but they didn't expect Zhang Yu to strike first.

The general defending the city also noticed that the morale of the soldiers was beginning to shake, so he ordered: "Tell the soldiers, don't talk about defending for three days, we can defend for five days without any problem."

"Let the soldiers start preparing immediately, Zhang Yu and the others may launch an attack soon."

The guard gave the order, and the soldiers slowly stabilized and began to prepare.

"My lord, the defenders in the city are starting to prepare, why don't we carry out a surprise attack as soon as possible, otherwise the more time we are given, the harder it will be for us to fight." The lieutenant general said.

Zhang Yu shook his head and said, "Tell the soldiers my decision, and attack after another hour."

Zhang Yu was the only authority in the army. When he gave an order, no one dared to object, and he carried it out immediately.

"You must not disappoint the lord. The lord said three days will be three days."

"What are you afraid of? This is just a small city. I think it can be broken in two days."

"Well, it's almost two days, let the people under my hands go all out."

"Yes, go all out and don't let the lord down."

 …

Although the morale of the enemy is high, the morale of Zhang Yu's army is also high.

Everyone is gearing up, ready to fight for Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu didn't think about the situation that his own morale would increase, because this decision would hurt his own morale anyway.

But Zhang Yu knows that his army has undergone strict training, as long as it can perform normally.

However, this is a good thing after all, which makes Zhang Yu more confident.

"What a good army, what a good soldier, don't worry, I will not let you down, and I will lead you to win continuously." Zhang Yu said.

The enemies in the city were actively preparing, but Zhang Yu and the others rested for an hour, and did not prepare to attack until one and a half hours in the afternoon.

Zhang Yu sat on the horse, looking majestic and majestic, looking at the city in front of him, with a heroic heart.

"kill."

The halberd swung forward, and the situation on the battlefield changed suddenly. The strongest system to dominate the Three Kingdoms
