Chapter 69 Breaking Cao
Li Lin saw these players' discussions. Although Cao Cao's 35,000 troops were only putting more effort into his opinion. After all, this space is too single and the difficulty is not too high. Choosing this is more familiar and convenient to cultivate players, making them familiar with real fighting skills, and screening out warriors who can really engage in battle. Of course, now being restricted by reality, all people are chosen. When the restrictions in the future decrease, directly selecting better talents in reality will have a higher success rate.
Soon, the spies came to report that Cao's army had set up camps at the important road twenty miles outside Xuchang City, and the siege would happen soon.
Li Lin sat upright in the prefect's mansion in the city, directing soldiers to dispatch the city guarding, city gates, how to defend the city walls, public security in the city, equipment and food for the city guarding, and arrange the matters one by one.
Soon three days later, Cao's army appeared under the Xuchang city wall.
The Xuchang city wall has been in war for a long time and is already in ruins. Although it is urgently repaired, you can still see gaps everywhere. This is the reason why the city gate is not satisfied with its durability, only about half of it.
As expected, Cao's army was divided into five teams, with Cao Cao personally commanding seven thousand men and horses to suppress the formation. The other four armies were Xiahou Dun, who led 7,000 soldiers and horses, mixed infantry and cavalry, and about one thousand cavalry; Xiahou Yuan led 7,000 soldiers and cavalry, and 1,000 archers and cavalry, and the remaining six thousand were infantry archers; Li Dian led 7,000 infantry, and Le Jin led 7,000 soldiers and horses.
Under the escort of the counselors, Cao Cao stood in front of the city gate and observed the city head. He saw flags waving, neatly arranged, and complete guards. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, knowing that this siege was not easy, and then the sergeant shouted upwards.
"My little man Xie Yuan, I have always treated you very well. I will not want to repay the kindness of the master. How can I rebel against me with Chen Gong? I am really unfaithful and unfilial!"
"Mr. Cao's words are wrong. The public uses personal grudges to abolish public weapons, slaughter the people, and ignores the righteousness. How can they talk about loyalty and filial piety? Although far away is vulgar, they are ashamed to be with the king. When a former colleague heard the far away, Cao Gong is not a wise ruler and dies at any time. Good birds choose trees to live on, so why not make plans early!" Li Lin relied on the system to pronounce the voice loudly and the sound reached several miles. Everyone who heard it was moved. For a moment, Cao's morale dropped slightly.
Chen Gong stood on the side of Li Lin and looked at the Cao army camp. He saw that the generals in the past were serious and somewhat moved, and the soldiers looked tired. He knew that the Cao army was unstable and had to hang out with Lu Bu for a long time and could not rest. He thought to himself that the general had said that Le Jin had already been in touch with him. Since this is the case, it would be today to defeat Cao.
The two sides debated for a while, but naturally they had no results. After all, they had to speak with swords and guns.
"Assiege!" Seeing that Xie's army's camp was strict and could not speak with words, Cao Cao stepped back and waved his hand to let the army attack.
For a moment, the infantry moved forward, the cavalry overtook the formation, and the Cao army rushed towards the Xuchang city wall.
As the ladder passed, the soldiers risked their lives to climb. Before the middle of the way, they were smashed by the rock-beating wood on the city wall, bloody and screamed in succession. Although the infantry was expensive, they had no achievements. It made the general Cao's heart angry.
At this time, Xiahou Yuan led the archers to suppress the archers under the city to resist the archers on the city wall.
Seeing that time had passed for a long time, he saw that the soldiers were murderous intent was turbulent and the time had arrived, so he hurriedly launched the military tactics.
"All the soldiers obey orders, and the battle method is flying!"
A thousand archers heard the order and ran out from one side of the formation. The horse's hooves were connected, and smoke and dust filled them. They rushed past under the city wall, and at the same time they shot the bows and arrows in their hands.
For a time, arrows flew on the top of the Xuchang city walls, and there were countless people who were hit. Although not many died, they were greatly damaged. For a moment, the soldiers on the city were much more careful and no longer as brave as before.
"Damn it", Li Lin saw this on the top of the city and pointed with one hand, "Shao Xiahou Yuan, let's go, see my tactics!"
The individual general's skill and intelligence were reduced and he threw three out in an instant, and he tied the Xiahou Yuan's troops in a row.
Xiahou Yuan felt his mind dizzy, and then he saw that the troops were already in chaos and almost collapsed. The formation was in chaos. He hurriedly stepped on his halberd and stabilized the troops, but he saw that his morale was low and he could no longer use the military tactics for a period of time. Fortunately, his side was attacking the city and was not afraid that the other side would take the opportunity to rush to the formation, so he slowly retreated to the back and rested.
Li Lin originally wanted to see the gap between the soldiers on both sides and let the players exercise. He did not take the initiative to perform personal stunts, but after being attacked by Xiahou Yuan's military tactics, he understood that if Cao's army was allowed to perform in turn, the city would not be able to support it, and few people in the army could use military tactics to fight against it.
Then, as long as Cao's army came forward, Li Lin would use his intelligence to reduce his strength. The accompanying special effect would make the enemy in chaos. Even if Cao General could resist, he could not use military tactics in this situation. He could only rely on ordinary fighting between soldiers to exchange his life, which would prevent his morale from being frustrated.
After the morning passed, Cao's army had taken turns to attack, and the remaining energy was exhausted, so they stopped their troops and returned to the camp.
In the evening, Li Lin led the generals and other players to discuss in the prefect's mansion.
Chen Gong said, "General, the opportunity to defeat Cao is tonight. Please command three thousand elite soldiers. The palace is willing to follow the horse to achieve full success."
"Lord, General Le Jin has replied to the letter and will raise the fire as a call. Just wait for the fire to catch a fire in Cao's camp, and then raise troops to respond." At this time, a Qu Zhang surnamed Du suggested.
Li Lin thought for a brief moment and asked the Tianyan system to calculate it quickly. Cao's morale had fallen, and it was another night attack. The inside was not bad. The success of the sneak attack was very high, which means that Cao's army was prepared for it. His own tactics and stunts had a greater effect in the dark night. General Cao could not take care of the army at all. Moreover, he had never exposed this point. Cao's army must have been unpredictable and was innate.
"Okay, I will personally lead all the cavalry in the city, and the Gongtai will lead 5,000 troops to the back to respond. The rest of the people guard the city and will not make any mistakes. The day of the defeat of Cao will be on this evening. After the matter is completed, each will be rewarded!" Li Lin issued a military order, and everyone urgently allocated troops and arranged various matters.
At midnight, through the system map, Li Lin found that Cao's army camp had already fallen asleep, and only patrol troops were left, so he led his troops out of the west gate, bypassed Cao's army's scouts and headed straight for the camp.
When he arrived at the camp, he looked from a distance that all the sentries at the gate were in high spirits, and it was obvious that they had received strict orders and were not allowed to slack off. But even so, with the help of the system, Li Lin soon discovered the omissions of the enemy.
The weak point is that it is in the northwest of the camp, with a higher terrain and fewer guards. Li Lin quietly led his troops to climb up the high slope, allowing the horse to slowly approach.
There were more than fifty steps away from the camp. The soldiers on the high-rise sentry tower in the camp still found the shadows of the brigade. They quickly beat the drums and gongs, shouting endlessly, "The enemy is coming, go and report to the lord."
Li Lin had no hope of getting into the enemy camp. Unless the enemy was sleeping to death, thousands of people would never be able to enter silently.
But being able to get so close is enough to keep the enemy from preparing.
Regardless of consumption, Li Lin threw out two intelligence reduction tactics to the patrol troops hundreds of meters away, causing chaos in the enemy group and there was no time to get here.
"Attack, the first camp to enter, the captive commander of a hundred generals!" Li Lin shouted.
Several players behind him led their personal guards to the camp without fear of death, took out their pavilions, and tried to cut the fence, or tried to climb over, or dozens of people hit the walls together, trying to push them down.
The patrol troops had no famous generals and could not resist this kind of military skills. They soon dispersed without fighting, giving Xie Jun a lot of time to break the village wall.
When Xiahou Dun hurriedly led the personal guards to come, Li Lin's troops had already cut down the fence, and a large number of soldiers rushed in, setting fires, killing people, and driving away. The entire Cao army camp was in chaos, with people neighing, and generals everywhere shouting, gathering personal soldiers and trying to resist.
"Stay it all for me, run around and kill them!" Xiahou Dun was full of murderous aura. After conquering Tao Qian, the remaining one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-eyed one-wolf, full of ferocity.
Soon a group of troops were forcibly gathered by him and rushed towards this gap. No enemy soldiers along the way were spared.
Xiahou Dun took the lead, and no soldier in Li Lin was a general whom he joined. A player did not believe in evil and wanted to make great contributions by killing famous generals. He brought the fifty confidant soldiers beside him, holding Park Sword and surrounded him.
Xiahou Dun smiled coldly, and his men and horses merged. He ran over. With a spear, he stabbed the leading player and the horse. The other dozens of soldiers were stunned and dispersed.
Li Lin looked from afar and knew that this would happen. Cao's army was not afraid, but these famous generals became extremely brave with this law of space. None of them was their opponents, which was a bit tricky.
"Shanhou Dun, don't be arrogant, look at my magical general's skills!" Li Lin did not hesitate this time and issued five tactical stunts with reduced intelligence to the troops beside Xiahou Dun.
Xiahou Dun felt dizzy and was about to cheer up, but there were four more people in a row, which caught him off guard. He had never seen such generals in daily battles. Even when he fought against Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, the other party could just leave the army and activate the skills of the divine generals alone. There was never a reason to activate them continuously. This kind of skill of the generals that was instantly fired is simply unheard of, and his heart was cold.
"Oh, it hurts so much!" Xiahou Dun covered his head and couldn't sit still immediately and fell down.
In the midst of chaos, hundreds of arrows suddenly shot over and over. If he could call or dodge on weekdays, he would not be able to hurt him. But at this time his mind was dizzy and he was powerless. He could only barely block a few and was hit by several arrows.
"Oh, little man, how dare you hurt me with a hidden arrow!"
Before Xiahou Dun got up, hundreds of soldiers of Xie had already killed all the chaotic Cao soldiers and surrounded him, with swords and guns coming and unable to move.
"General Xiahou, it's been a long time since he was caught." Li Lin was delighted when he saw that he easily captured such a famous general. Although he relied on the power of the system, if this continues, there will be no one more than him in the space of the Three Kingdoms.
