"Da da da da da."

Not long after, a sound of footsteps rang out. Zhang Xiu put down the bamboo slips in his hand and looked up at the tent door with the help of candlelight. Li Ru was wearing black clothes, with big sleeves floating, and came in from outside with a very elegant look.

"Han Shouhou." Li Ru bowed to Zhang Xiu, and his sleeves fell down, making him extremely calm.

Zhang Xiu praised Li Ru's temperament in his heart. He was so beautiful, but unfortunately his stomach was full of conspiracies.

"Sir." Zhang Xiu also clasped his fists and bowed, and then asked Li Ru to sit down.

"Han Shouhou thought, what's the battle today?" Li Ru asked as soon as she sat down.

Zhang Xiu sighed and said, "Sun Jian is brave, Wancheng is strong, and Jiangdong soldiers fight fiercely. I am afraid that if I attack hard, it will be difficult to capture it in January or February."

"What Han Shouhou said is very much." Li Ru nodded.

During the daytime battle, he and Zhang Xiu could see clearly. Although the Liangzhou soldiers were brave and brave, Sun Jian was very steadily. If he attacked like this, it would be difficult for him to capture Wancheng in March and April.

Now, Dong Zhuo's side has strong enemies on all sides. Zhang Xiu is a general who leads 80,000 main forces to the south. If he is delayed with Sun Jian for a long time, he will suffer heavy losses.

I am afraid that the princes from all directions will be ready to move again. For example, although Yuan Shao was defeated for a while, he was recovering his vitality, and Jizhou's money and food are also constantly supporting Yuan Shao.

"How about digging tunnels? We attacked the city in the daytime and ordered the soldiers to dig tunnels day and night into the city." Li Ru suddenly stood up, came to Zhang Xiu's side, and whispered.

Zhang Xiu's eyes lit up slightly, then shook his head slightly, but nodded again and said, "Okay, let Wang Hui lead three thousand troops to dig the tunnel. If you want to dig during the day, there may be some movement at night."

"promise."

Li Ru agreed and went down immediately.

Zhang Xiu shook his head again. Digging out tunnels is a way to do it. This is something that everyone knows. Sun Jian may be prepared for it.

But now he and Li Ru don’t have much choice but to do it.

The so-called siege battle is the most harsh.

In history, Zhuge Liang had an absolute advantage in military strength and attacked Chen Cangcheng in the Northern Expedition, but Hao Zhao was also given the present moment.

What's more, opposite is Sun Jian and Cao Cao.

............

In the city.

However, Sun Jian and Cao Cao did not have the idle intentions of Zhang Xiu. They were delicious and delicious, and they were studying on the lamp. After the night, they asked the soldiers to clean up their bodies and burned them together.

They patrol the city walls and visit the injured soldiers. They were so busy that they didn't touch the ground until they were hungry that they turned around and sat down in the city gate tower, drinking and having a meal together.

"General Sun. Although the casualties in the siege are generally 2 to 1. However, Liangzhou's soldiers are strong, and our casualties are a little more than we imagined."

Cao Cao gently put down his wine glass, showing a worry.

"Yeah." Sun Jian nodded. He was completely confident in the Jiangdong soldiers, but now many of the soldiers guarding the city were recruited by Yuan Shu, so it was normal that they could not stop the Liangzhou soldiers.

If he hadn't had the advantage of the city wall, he wouldn't have dared to fight with Zhang Xiu.

Sun Jian's eyes suddenly lit up and he thought of a plan. He leaned forward to Cao Cao and said, "Meng De and Zhang Xiu used troops as gods and had great prestige. But now his troops are strong, he will inevitably develop a sense of arrogance. We might as well dig out the tunnel and break into his camp."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up when he heard this, and nodded repeatedly, "What General Sun said is reasonable. As the saying goes, generals are difficult to have a large army. If you make a mistake, you will lose everything. Although Zhang Xiu is handsome in the world, the troops he supervises are also elite. However, Liangzhou has 80,000 soldiers and generals are of varying quality. We suddenly broke into the camp, and we might win a complete victory if we were unexpected."

After the two of them made up their plans, they summoned Huang Gai and said secretly that Huang Gai led people to secretly dig out the tunnel.

However, authenticity is not that easy to dig, so you need to be careful not to show any movement.

Therefore, both sides digging tunnels, but progress was slow.

Time flies like a flash of time.

Five days later.

At night.

Zhang Xiu wore armor and led Dian Wei, Li Ru and more than a hundred personal soldiers to inspect various camps, provide relief to the generals, and visit the injured soldiers. He carefully instructed the generals to give the injured soldiers, food and medicine.

He knew the urinary nature of Liangzhou's generals. Many generals were only brave and fierce, had big nerves, and were not friendly to the soldiers at all.

If you don't urge it, these generals may also withhold the food of the injured soldiers.

After returning to the big tent, Dian Wei Zi waited outside, and Zhang Xiu and Li Ru entered the big tent together and sat down.

"We have been sieging the city for five days in a row. I see that the soldiers are tired of war and have low morale. They can be repaired for one or two before sieging the city."

Zhang Xiu said.

"promise."

Li Ru bowed his promise and was very happy.

"How is the authentic excavation?" Zhang Xiu immediately became concerned about authenticity, although he thought this thing was unreliable.

"Calculate the distance and have reached Wancheng City. Do you need to use troops?" Li Ru asked, pinching his soft beard.

"Finding Dianwei, Fan Chou selected 500 people to start the game. Lu Bu selected 500 people to be the back team. If the front team can gain a foothold, they will break in. If the failure is done, forget it."

Zhang Xiu thought for a while and said.

"No." Li Ru responded to the nobility and turned around. Zhang Xiu called Dian Wei in again and gave some instructions.

After returning to the tent, Zhang Xiu took off his clothes and entered the tent to rest. After blowing the light and lying on the bed, Zhang Xiu felt upset again.

"It's really easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality. During this period, I often lead my troops outside and have no woman warming the bed around me. It's really unhappy."

Zhang Xiu sighed, held back his upset and forced himself to fall asleep.

After sleeping for a while, Zhang Xiu was awakened by his personal soldiers.

"General. Mr. Li Ru is ready." After the personal soldier Long Qi bowed and woke Zhang Xiu, he bowed and bowed.

"Prepare armor." Zhang Xiu opened his eyes and took 0.1 second to wake up. He immediately lifted the bedding and stood up to the outside account. Under the service of his personal soldiers, he put on heavy armor and then strode out.

This authentic entrance is located next to the Central Military Academy.

When Zhang Xiu led his personal soldiers to come, Li Ru, Lu Bu, Dian Wei, Fan Chou and others were already there, and there were still five or six thousand elite soldiers wearing armor and swords, with momentum soaring to the sky.

Dian Wei had a crescent halberd on both sides, wearing black iron armor, with a handsome face without saying a word, and his whole body exuded a deep murderous aura.

Although Fan Chou next to him is also a general of bears and tigers, his aura is much worse than Dian Wei.

"Go ahead. If you can climb the city first, I will report to the emperor and confer two generals as generals and marquises. Wealth and honor continues." Zhang Xiu came to Dian Wei and said to Fan Chou, then looked up and said to the three hundred capable soldiers: "There are you, too. If you successfully enter the city, one will count. I will set up a big house for you outside Luoyang City, and give you wives, concubines, beauties, gold, silver and wealth. You can retire and enjoy wealth."

"promise."

In addition to Dian Wei, Fan Chou showed joy and responded heavily. Then, more than a dozen workers carried shovels and hoes first. Dian Wei and Fan Chou then led 300 elite soldiers into the tunnel, intending to board first.

"Brother is the back team, and after entering the city, he will be a great achievement." Zhang Xiu glanced at Lu Bu and said with a smile.

"No." Lu Baobao was also obedient at this moment, and there was joy between his eyebrows.

If the front is successful, then you will naturally have to enter the city to fight hard. Zhang Xiu ordered his personal soldiers to get his big black gun, with the gun on his back, waiting for the result.

Li Ru looked around and ordered a personal soldier from Zhang Xiu to take a Hu stool, and then sat down, making her leisurely and comfortable.

...........

Coincidentally, Sun Jian and Cao Cao in the city were also planning this matter.

Unlike Zhang Xiu, both of them were a little haggard. After patrolling the city wall, they came to the city gate tower to sit down, eat and drink.

After drinking and eating, Cao Cao took out a handkerchief and wiped his mouth. He looked up and said to Sun Jian, "General Sun. Zhang Xiu has been sieging the city for five consecutive days. Although we have suffered heavy losses, Zhang Xiu's army must be war-weary. The tunnel has been excavated, and I think we can send troops to attack."

"Okay. I will personally lead 500 troops to go first. Let Huang Gai and Han Dang lead 3,000 troops to serve as the rear team. They will enter Zhang Xiu's camp and defeat them in one battle."

Sun Jian was so powerful that he immediately stood up, shook his wrists left and right, intending to go out in person to serve as the commando leader.

"General Sun, please wait." Cao Cao's expression changed, he quickly stood up and persuaded: "General is the general of the first army. If something goes wrong, the army will collapse immediately. I think it's better to choose two fierce generals to board first."

Sun Jian really wanted to fight. He had been beaten by Zhang Xiu for a long time, so he was so bored. But seeing Cao Cao's hard advice, he could only stop the fire.

Immediately, Sun Jian and Cao Cao discussed it. Xiahou Dun and Huang Gai were the first to ascend the general, leading 500 elite troops to advance first.

Let Han Dang and Cheng Pu lead 3,000 elite troops to serve as the rear team. Sun Jian and Cao Cao will serve as the reserve team.

If we can successfully break into Zhang Xiu's camp, we will build up all the troops and fight.

The entrance to the tunnel was near the city gate. After the dispatch of troops, Sun Jian and Cao Cao were wearing armor and each held weapons in their hands and arrived at the tunnel entrance.

Xiahou Dun and Huang Gai were wearing iron armor and holding big swords. Behind them were five hundred elite soldiers.

"Come to get wine." Sun Jian glanced at the two of them and shouted.

"promise."

His personal soldiers responded and brought two bowls of wine. Sun Jian first picked up a bowl of wine and handed it to Xiahou Dun, then held another bowl of wine and handed it to Huang Gai.

"The rise and fall of the Han Dynasty is in this battle. I practice it for the two generals with wine." Sun Jian picked up another bowl of wine and toasted it.

"Thank you General Sun (lord)." Huang Gai and Xiahou Dun thanked each other, drank the bowl of wine, and handed the bowl to Sun Jian's elite soldiers next to him. Then the two of them clasped their fists at Sun Jian, first letting more than a dozen workers in front, and then the two led 500 elite soldiers in the back and entered the tunnel.

"Success or failure is here." Sun Jian picked up the big gun again, crossing his back, his eyes extremely sharp.
