Chapter Nine Hundred and Eightieth Grab Time
The army went to Changshan County, and Yuan Jun and Zhang Yu in the north of Zhongshan Kingdom and Zhang Yu in the south ignored it.
There are still a lot of Yuan Jun in the south, and the cities in the north are mainly to release some soldiers and horses symbolically. Those troops are far away from the center of gravity of Jizhou, and they have no intentions.
This time Zhang Yu set off first with an army of 150,000, while the army behind continued to rest and rest for an extra day, and then followed with food and grass.
After Zhang Yu captured the city, he put 5,000 people here, and prepared to take the rest away.
Heading towards Changshan County, the south is also fighting fiercely at this time. Yuan Jun has no generals to lead him. Facing Cao Jun's many generals and warriors, it is difficult to resist.
Cao Jun this time has an army of 850,000, with only a few hundred famous and unknown generals.
Yuan Jun has a large number of people, but the city has been lost.
Guo Tu and Shen Pei don't care about fighting for power at this time. If the Yuan family perishes, the things they do will not be much better if they go to other places.
"My two sons, at this time we can only use the army to defend the city, consume the enemy's army, and then stretch Cao's battle line." Guo Tu said.
The judge also said: "Yes, two sons, the enemy army is strong, we can't beat it head-on, the opponent is all elite soldiers, we can only rely on the solid city defense."
"In addition, the eldest son is constantly recruiting soldiers and horses in Bingzhou, and we need to train more troops in the rear. If it is not possible, Cao Cao will consume a lot of soldiers and horses, and we will be able to make a comeback if we retreat to Bingzhou."
Yuan Shang and Yuan Xi agreed to their proposal.
The two have personally gone to the front to lead the troops, otherwise it would be difficult to resist Cao Jun's offensive.
Guo Tu said again: "My two sons, it is not appropriate for us to divide our troops at the moment. Let us divide our army of 300,000 troops into three cities and do the same for each other. If we can't hold on, we will retreat together."
The cities in the south of Jizhou are relatively dense, and their troops are also densely deployed.
Cao Cao's fight was not very smooth. Although he attacked the city and pulled out the stronghold, Yuan Jun was not without strength.
After capturing another city, Cao Cao summoned his generals and said, "Yuan's army is in a group, and the losses are huge. What can you do?"
Cao Cao brought out several advisers, Xu You, Cheng Yu, Jia Xu, Man Pang, and Xun You.
Cao Ang was in Xuchang,
It is enough to have Xun Yu assisting him.
"My lord, if we lay siege for a period of time, we will easily capture them when their morale collapses," Man Pang said.
Xun You immediately objected and said: "My lord, although this plan is sound, Yuan Jun is still recruiting soldiers and horses. Although the newly recruited soldiers and horses are not very threatening, they will be a trouble after all."
After they discussed for a while, Cao Cao asked Cheng Yu again, "Zhongde, what's your opinion?"
Cheng Yu came out and said: "My lord, Yuan Jun's army is here. We have two methods. One is to surround them and send a group of soldiers and horses to go around and attack other places. The other method is to attack by force."
Cao Cao was a little unhappy, this is not a good way.
Looking at Jia Xu again, Jia Xu said: "My lord, our opponent is not Yuan Jun, but Zhang Yu, and Zhang Yu cannot be the first."
Cao Cao suddenly understood that their enemy was not the enemy in front of them, but Zhang Yu.
Seize the strategic location and compete with Zhang Yu in the future.
Cao Cao immediately made a decision.
"Starting tomorrow, we will attack Yuan Jun by force." Cao Cao said.
Xu You nodded approvingly, and then said, "Ah Man, I have an idea."
Cao Cao had a smile on his face. He was already a prince at this time, but Xu You still called him that because of his childhood friendship.
He was very dissatisfied in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. He said, "Ziyuan, tell me quickly."
"It's okay to attack by force, but we only attack one city by force, and encircle and annihilate part of them first, breaking the triangular formation that they are in harmony with each other."
Cao Cao was very happy, and then said: "That's it."
Cao Cao began to line up his troops.
Everyone worked together to make reasonable arrangements.
The next day, Cao Cao began to attack the city.
They assembled an army of 280,000, surrounded a city with 200,000 troops, and prepared to attack fiercely, while other soldiers and horses were stationed around the city, preparing to deal with Yuan Jun.
It was Yuan Xi who was surrounded, and he brought a hundred thousand soldiers and horses.
The city is quite strong, so Yuan Xi is not worried, a hundred thousand soldiers can hold on for a while no matter what.
Cao Jun began to attack fiercely, attacking the city wall.
Under the command of the general, the army has been forcibly attacking.
Shock wave after wave.
One day passed, Cao Jun did not stop, and continued to attack.
Yuan Xi was on the run all day, and he kept sending soldiers to the city wall to resist the enemy's attack.
At the end of the day, Yuan Xi and the others suffered heavy losses, with over 10,000 troops killed in battle.
But Cao Jun suffered more casualties, at least twice as many as theirs.
Cao Jun suffered so many casualties because he did not have as much money as Zhang Yu's family.
It doesn't matter if Zhang Yu's weapons are well equipped, the important thing is that he has more bows and arrows.
The sky is full of arrows, and there are tens of thousands to tens of thousands of arrows in one round.
After one round, it is a large sum of money. It is not arrows that are shot out, but money.
Now Cao Jun is very poor, and his money is spent elsewhere. He is not as crazy as Zhang Yu when it comes to archers.
Even ordinary infantry learns archery.
It costs money to learn archery, and it costs a lot of money. It is not enough to just issue bows and arrows.
To train, a lot of arrows are wasted every day to practice during training.
One day and one night passed, Cao Jun was still attacking fiercely, and the other two cities came to attack with soldiers and horses after discovering the situation.
They went out of the city to attack Cao Jun. Cao Jun arranged an army to resist and fought a big battle.
Yuan Jun didn't get much advantage, and then withdrew.
But their attack obviously also had a certain impact on Cao Jun's siege army.
As the day and night passed, Cao Cao was worried and left.
His side was fighting fiercely, and Zhang Yu's side was also approaching the battlefield.
Going past Wangcheng, not far away is Quyang County, where Yuan Jun dug a deep trench and waited for it.
After Zhang Yu and the others reached the periphery, they ordered the surrounding areas to be sealed off.
"Grandma Xiong, this Yuan Jun actually hid in a tortoise shell." Dian Wei cursed loudly after arriving.
Turning around, it is estimated that it will take two days to fill the trench.
Zhang Yu is also a little anxious, Changshan County is still more important to him.
"Fill the trenches immediately, cut off their support, and threaten them," Zhang Yu said.
At this time, Cao Jun's soldiers and horses are attacking Zhao State in the south of Changshan County. Once they occupy them all, they will definitely go north to grab the territory with Zhang Yu.
Time is the territory, Zhang Yu is a little anxious.
Zhang Yu and the others started to act, and Zhang Yu was thinking about how to capture this city as soon as possible.
Having already stormed a city to set an example for the enemy, Zhang Yu did not intend to use the original style of play this time.
To fill the trenches, of course, let Fusang's army come.
