"If we talk about the innate conditions of the Langya Army, they are certainly not bad. The only difference is the collective training. No matter how strong the people are, they will naturally be defeated if they are scattered..." Chen Gong felt panic in his heart. No matter how confused he was, at this time he was also

All we could do was hold steady and keep exploring the whereabouts of Xu Du's food and fodder, not daring to let any news slip through. For fear that Cao Ying might attack from the east and west, he secretly crossed over to Chencang and sent the food and fodder to Xiapi.

Chen Gong didn't dare to relax at all. If he let the food and grass go, his life would be in vain!

Zhang Liao's letter also arrived, and Chen Gong read it. After seeing it, Cao Xing felt relieved and said: "Wen Yuan doesn't have to worry about using troops. As long as he can intercept Cao Ren and not join forces with Cao Cao, he will be able to fight!"<

/p>

"My lord and young master, we have to hurry up. If we don't defeat Cao Cao quickly, everything will be over once Cao Ren arrives!" Cao Xing said.

Chen Gong was worried, but he looked in the direction of Xiapi calmly and restrainedly.

After retreating from Cao Cao, Xuzhou will establish several important military towns with few soldiers and generals, and the defense of the city requires more diligence...

Now, if Xu Du Cao's army had not come to fight, the front would be too long and it would be difficult to supply food and grass. With the current strength of Lu's army, it would be a desperate struggle!

Even so, in order to fight against Cao Cao's army, everyone in Xuzhou used all their strength!

This is the darkest and most difficult moment in Xuzhou.

Chen Gong closed his eyes and it would be dawn.

As night fell, several of the arrow towers Cao Cao ordered his soldiers to build were erected.

The Xiapi city wall is already pitted and dilapidated, but it continues to fulfill its mission tenaciously.

When Hao Meng saw the tall arrow tower, his expression was not optimistic.

Wiping the blood on his face, he hurriedly came to find Song Xian and said: "The arrow tower must be destroyed. If the arrows are wrapped and fired into the city, the city will burst into flames and cause chaos!"

Song Xiandao: "Prepare the trebuchet."

"I've tried it. At this distance, the aim is not very accurate, and it's very stable. I tried it several times, but it only hit the corners and couldn't knock it down..." Hao Meng said: "It would be better if we have Pengcheng's artillery.

Got it!"

After saying that, he gritted his teeth and said: "Cao Cao is going to be exhausted for a long time. His troops are extremely strong. Now he has only sent out half of his troops. If he replaces his troops in the middle of the night, he can afford it, but our army cannot afford it!"
p>

Song Xian was not optimistic either, his heart was pounding, "He wants to force us out of the city to fight with him! Force our army out of the city to destroy the arrow tower!"

Before the arrow tower was built, a lot of obstacles were used to block the front, such as leaves, big trees, etc., to prevent attacks in the city!

It is precisely because of these obstacles that the trebuchet always fails!

This made Hao Meng feel slightly angry.

Song Xian was not very optimistic in his heart. The arrow tower put too much pressure on people. However, what Song Xian was even more afraid of was that this was just an attack on the surface. This thing might divert people's attention...

The two of them were upset by these things.

A deputy general said: "General, Cao's troops have withdrawn some..."

The two of them looked down and saw Cao's soldiers retreating like a tide, but they no longer resorted to close attacks.

The two of them felt something was wrong in their hearts. If they wanted to retreat, how could they not have heard the drum signal?!

This is not a withdrawal of troops, but a change of defense!

Song Xian gritted his teeth and said: "They are taking a rest while changing troops. Damn it! Our army is exhausted, but they still have people to change hands. This Cao Cao also wants to use turns to fight!"

Because they knew that Yuan Shu used this kind of tactic against Xuzhou City in Xuzhou and was unable to attack the city, so they used this kind of taking turns to fight, and when the people were exhausted and exhausted, they would annihilate them in one fell swoop.

Even Gao Shun was angered to death by Yuan Shu, let alone them.

Relying on the overwhelming number of people and sufficient military strength, using such a base method is simply disgusting!

Now even Cao Cao is exhausted. This is because he is sure that there is a shortage of manpower in the city, so he is resorting to all possible means.

No, he is more enterprising than Yuan Shu. Not only did he build an arrow tower, but he also had to attack it from a tunnel.

Hao Meng's pupils narrowed slightly and she stared closely at Cao Bing. After they changed their hands, they no longer came forward to fight in close combat. Instead, they stood at a fixed distance away, wearing armor and holding sharp weapons. "This is

?!"

Because the city wall was constantly dripping oil, the fire burned for a day, and the wall bricks were all red-hot. It was impossible for Cao's soldiers to attack the city again at this time, and they would only be scalded to death.

Sure enough, the arrow tower started shooting arrows into the city!

Countless arrows rained down, and there were also fireballs. Once they landed in the city, the wooden houses were all on fire. Seeing that even the city was on fire, Song Xian's pupils shrank tightly and said: "Don't leave the house."

Material! Use this fire to force our army to attack the arrow tower and then destroy it... There are very few people in the city. If they are trapped among Cao's soldiers, they will stop attacking the city again!"

Hao Meng's anxious nose was covered with sweat and she said: "What should we do now?!"

"There are still guards in the city. They will put out the fire! The trebuchets are ready to throw stones and aim at the arrow tower. You must not leave the city to fight unless it is absolutely necessary!" Song Xian said: "The person who is anxious now is Cao Cao, not us!"<

/p>

Hao Meng was stunned, then understood and said: "Okay! Even if the city is really burned down, we will never open the city gate easily and go out!"

At this time, the more you can't be manipulated by Cao Cao! If Cao Cao is caught by him, he can immediately open a hole and rush into the city, and he will be dead by then.

Once Cao Cao's large army becomes angry, the entire city will be killed and burned!

Today, even if everyone in Xiapi City is really buried in the sea of ​​​​fire, Cao Jun will never be allowed to take a step!

But when I am tired, I will always think that if at this time, not ten thousand divine soldiers, but only eight thousand, are sent from heaven to destroy the arrow tower, the city can rest for a while. All the soldiers are tired, but they still have to

Be persistent.

It’s really tiring and stressful!

Sure enough, the houses in the city were burning fast. The disadvantage of the wooden houses was that once they burned, they would be quickly blown into pieces by the wind, forming a sea of ​​​​fire.

The five hundred soldiers in the city not only had to guard against rockets falling from the sky, but they also had to carry water to put out the fire.

Fortunately, a lot of water was prepared in jars and urns in the houses and streets in the city. Otherwise, the fire would not be able to be controlled at all, and it would be completely burned in no time.

Even though there is a shortage of manpower and the traffic is running out, the soldiers are constantly pouring water on the roof, so there is no large-scale fire...

The city was in a mess, and there were some fires in the inner city, but they were quickly extinguished by the soldiers!

The common people were hiding in a stone house in the inner city, and their faces were all as pale as chickens.

They were all afraid that if the city was destroyed, they would be dead. It was extremely tragic outside, and they could hear it.

Lu Xian looked at their faces, which were war-torn and weathered, and felt sad to see them.

Although she had made up her mind to take them away if the city was destroyed, she could not guarantee how many people could be saved. Firstly, she could not guarantee that everyone would be able to escape, and secondly, she could not guarantee that they would be able to escape after leaving the city.

Will not be intercepted and killed by Cao's soldiers...

At this moment, Lu Xian truly felt the battle of life and death.

Lu Bu has already gone to seize spies from Cao Ying and Yuan Ying, and assassinate them.

Because I have found a lot of them before, I am looking at the list now. The person in the shadow is very fast, and I can catch one at a time!

Lu Bu did not alarm the people, but had them dragged out and executed outside. He then guarded the inner city and the tunnel entrances and exits.

These spies from Cao Ying were so powerful that with so little manpower, they were able to dig several tunnels in the city leading to the outside of the city.

Lu Bu was very puzzled when he looked at these projects. What method did they use to hide it from the neighbors without making anyone suspicious of the movement?!

Is the world so chaotic that even if someone kills someone next door, the neighbors won’t care?!

Even if someone is actually killed, are the neighbors more afraid of the Yamen than the murderer?!

Lu Bu felt depressed. With such a large amount of work, even the soil was difficult to handle. Could those noisy sounds really be hidden from the almost silent ancient times?!

Even the noise of big projects in ancient times was no better than in modern society, with the constant flow of traffic, the sound of electric drills for renovation, the underground digging project, the processing of soil, and the sound of movement. How could it be hidden from others?!

Lu Xian looked at the cowering and trembling people, not even daring to raise their heads to look at them, and said to Xu Shu: "A harsh government is as fierce as a tiger..."

Xu Shu was also stunned and nodded.

Confucius did not realize his ideals at that time, but many of his ideas were inherited by others.

Xu Shu understood what Lu Xian wanted to do, so he looked at her and felt relieved.

If this city can be defended and she is lucky enough to survive, we must see what step she can take.

"The inner city has been secured, let's go to the city wall to help!" Xu Shu said.

Lu Xian put on her hood and said, "I'll also go to the outer city to have a look!"

The two of them talked to Lu Bu, and then took two people from the shadows with them, left the inner city and headed for the outer city.

The outer city was even more tragic. There were blazing fires on the houses. Although the fire was generally under control, many houses were still burned down. Some even the wooden structures could not hold up and collapsed directly after being burned.

Xu Shu felt uncomfortable, and Lu Xian felt even more uncomfortable. She paused and sighed: "A true warrior dares to face the dripping blood... Mr. Lu Xun back then was a true warrior."

Xu Shu said: "Who is Lu Xun?!"

"A wise man's pen is a sword and his language is a gun," Lu Xian said: "Yuan Zhi, do you know what is the most respectable thing about Mr. Lu Xun?!"

Xu Shu turned to look at her.

"Even if the world is full of holes and does not meet our expectations, we will never give up and change it." Lu Xian said: "Confucius is like this, and Lu Xun is like Lu Xun in his madness!"

Xu Shu was startled, then smiled and said: "Yes, this is what I wish!"

I don’t want to find out who Lu Xun is!

They are living in troubled times, but they are lucky enough to have little ability to change the world and reincarnation. They are still a little luckier than Confucius.

Confucius never gave up, let alone them.

When it gets dark, dawn will always come, but some people are destined not to see it, but not being able to see it doesn't mean it won't come... This is what Lu Xian wants to say.

When you die, you will get your due, and when you are alive, you will do your best to change! Reward the blue sky and caress the common people. This is what a scholar wishes! Keep moving forward! This is the spirit of a scholar!
