Cao Jun held on for two full hours. Yuan Jun finally retreated like a tide due to excessive casualties, and the first wave of offensive failed.
However, Yuan Jun seemed determined not to give Cao Jun any chance to breathe.
Just as the former army withdrew, another group of 50,000 troops, led by Jiang Yiqu, Zhang Nan and other generals, attacked!
"Attack attack!"
"Don't give Cao Jun a chance to breathe, continue the attack!"
Seeing that Yuan Jun did not give him any chance to rest, Sergeant Cao refrained from cursing.
"Damn Yuan Jun... Are you in such a hurry to get reincarnated?"
"Ah...my hands...are a little bit unresponsive..."
"The bastard Yuan Jun is here again, cheer up!"
"Yuan Jun is determined to break through our defense!"
"Come on! Fight!"
...
Sergeant Cao's soldiers had no time to sigh, as a new wave of Yuan Jun's offensive was already approaching!
"kill!"
"Break Guandu and enter Xuchang!"
Tens of thousands of Yuan troops burst into earth-shattering shouts!
Seeing another dark crowd coming in, there were less than 6,000 soldiers left on Cao Jun's city wall, and despair and fear began to rise in their hearts...
"Gudong!" A soldier swallowed hard.
"Damn! Why are my feet starting to tremble? Hold on, hold on!"
"Mom... If your child is not filial, I'm afraid I will have to repay your kindness in raising you in the next life..."
Huang Zhong looked at Yuan's army coming in again. He still had high morale, raised his weapon and said, "Reinforcements will be here soon! Soldiers, defend!"
Huang Zhong's words cheered up the soldiers' spirits and raised hope in their hearts, "Yes! I still have reinforcements!"
"Hold on! You must hold on!"
"Damn it, I can't stand it anymore!"
"Kill!"
The trebuchets, bows, arrows, and crossbows roared again. They were doing their best to weaken the enemy's combat power before the two armies came into contact.
However, Yuan's army has too many people, and Cao's army has less and less ammunition. The battle that follows will become increasingly fierce!
Yuan Jun rushed to the bottom of the city wall again, and another brutal siege began!
The red blood knife in Huang Zhong's hand slashed across the neck of a Yuan Jun primary school officer. There was a "stab" sound, and the primary school commander's head rolled to the ground. The eyes that were still staring blankly on the bloody head were still filled with...
A look of shock, confusion and unwillingness.
However, one Yuan Jun commander died, but more Yuan Jun soldiers and generals surrounded him!
many!
There are so many soldiers in front of you, all of them are soldiers from Yuan!
...
Six thousand soldiers of Cao Cao withstood the attack of 50,000 Yuan troops!
Crazy!
On the city wall, everyone was killing like crazy!
However, Zhang He keenly saw a hint of decline in Cao Jun's madness. He greeted Gao Lan and said, "Uncle Yuan, let's go too!"
"Okay!" Gao Lan agreed, and then greeted: "Soldiers, follow me to the city!"
This time, Zhang He and Gao Lan will personally go to the city to fight!
Zhang He is a first-class master, and Gao Lan is also a near-first-class master. The two of them mounted their horses on the oar, leapt over each other on horseback, and stepped onto the city wall!
When Huang Zhong saw the enemy general ascending the wall, he immediately cleared the surrounding soldiers and faced Zhang He.
Wei Yanze approached Gao Lan, and the two of them had to block Yuan Jun's generals, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous...
However, Huang Zhong and Wei Yan had been fighting at high intensity for two consecutive hours, and now they were showing signs of exhaustion.
Gradually, the two of them began to fall into disadvantage in the battle with Zhang He and Gao Lan...
Of the six thousand defenders, two thousand were killed again!
Huang Zhong and Wei Yan were exhausted, but Zhang He and Gao Lan became more and more courageous as they fought. The battlefield situation was extremely critical!
"call!"
"Keng!"
Huang Zhong was hit by Zhang He's fine iron spear and flew backwards several meters and hit the female wall. Only then could he stop his retreating body.
Wei Yan's helmet flew off with a shot from Gao Lan. With disheveled hair, he grabbed Gao Lan's spear and pulled him and the gun in front of him. In the end, the two of them twisted and rolled on the ground!
Just when Cao Jun's defenders were about to collapse, Cao Jun's reinforcements finally arrived!
"General Huang, I'm here to help you!"
"Old Wei! Let go of that man and let me come!"
Finally, when Huang Zhong and Wei Yan showed their defeat, Taishi Ci and Dian Wei arrived!
The two special armies of Beiwei Army and Tiefutu were still hidden in the camp. Taishi Ci, Dian Weiliang and Cheng Yu only came with 10,000 ordinary soldiers to support and change defenses.
Taishi Ci was also an expert archer. Although he and Huang Zhong secretly competed with each other, they also cherished each other. But now the city wall had become a mess, and if he continued to shoot arrows, he might accidentally hurt his own people. So Taishi Ci gave up his bow and arrows, holding a handful in each hand.
Su Tiedao, after sprinting for more than ten steps, suddenly jumped and turned, and the two swords slashed towards Zhang He's head!
Zhang He didn't react slowly. He raised his spear and blocked Tai Shici's attack!
"Keng!"
"Keng!" twice!
The fine steel spear made by Zhang Hebai Steelmaking burst out with sparks after violent contact with Su Tiedao!
Zhang He was repulsed by Tai Shici's attack and took several steps back before regaining his balance.
At this moment, Zhang He's arms were slightly numb, and he was shocked and said in his heart: "So strong! This is another strong general! Cao Cao has really many strong generals!"
The thought in Zhang He's mind just started,
On the other side, Gao Lan screamed and flew backwards. This brother was not very lucky and was targeted by Dian Wei...
With the addition of fresh troops, Huang Zhong, Wei Yan and Li Dian led the remaining troops back to the camp to rest.
And Yuan Jun's second wave of offensive was finally suppressed.
Xun You and Jia Xu are mainly responsible for logistics.
Looking at the wounded who were being tossed back and forth by the military doctors, Jia Xu couldn't help but sigh: "It's tragic..."
There were ten thousand defenders, but when they retreated there were already less than five thousand... If it weren't for Cao's army's strict military discipline and the resolute morale of his soldiers, the whole line would have collapsed.
Almost everyone in the retreating defenders was wounded, and on average each person had at least three wounds.
While Xun You asked the military doctor to speed up the treatment of the wound, he also sighed and said: "This is why we need to end the troubled times as soon as possible!"
Although Xun You's original intention was nothing else, Jia Xu felt a little ashamed in his heart when he heard it.
Jia Wenhe, one word can cause chaos in the world!
"Sigh... I hope I can make up for my sins in my lifetime..."
...
Cao's army was far inferior to Yuan's army in strength.
This time Yuan Shao handed over the command of the 300,000-strong army to Zhang He and Gao Lan, which was considered to be the right person to entrust.
Zhang He is good at maneuvering, taking advantage of the battlefield and geographical advantages, and is good at discerning the enemy's weaknesses.
He divided his army of 300,000 into six batches of 50,000 each to engage in wheel battles!
Cao Jun also had to switch defenses in batches. What they competed with Yuan Jun was endurance!
Whoever can't hold on first and who can stand to the end will be the final winner!
From the beginning to the present, the battle between Cao and Yuan has lasted for a full twelve hours. Yuan's army changed a group of men every two hours on average. This moment was approaching the end of the sixth batch of army attacks.
However, Cao's army had too few troops, and their first city wall was captured during Yuan's fourth attack.
The second city wall was also in danger under the attack of the sixth batch of Yuan's army.
Zhang He stood on the first city wall, looked at the second city wall a hundred steps away, and said to Gao Lan: "If we take this city wall, Cao's army will no longer have any danger to defend!"
Gao Lan hung his badly injured left arm and asked excitedly: "Jun Yi, are your Euphorbia warriors finally going to be dispatched?"
Zhang He's eyes sparkled, and his cloak fluttered in the wind behind him, "Raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while, the Euphorbia will be the last straw to break Cao's army!"
