Lu Yan's reply made Yuan Shu unable to recover for a long time.
After several minutes, Yuan Shu spoke again: "Tell me, what do you want?"
"You can't give me what I want."
"Fame, fortune, beauty, glory and wealth? I, Yuan Shu, can give it all to you!"
Boss Yuan is awesome!
Unfortunately, Lu Yan remained unmoved. He even shook his head slightly and said to Yuan Shu: "You can't give me what I want."
Yuan Shu felt angry after hearing this. Is there anything I can't give?
"I can't give it to you?" Yuan Shu laughed angrily, "If I can't give it to you, can Cao Aman give it to you?!"
Yuan Shu's question echoed over Yangdi City for a long time, seeming to torture everyone's soul, "Yuan Shu or Cao Cao, who do you choose?"
Lu Yan glanced in the direction of Yanzhou, then with a smile on his lips, he replied: "At least Mr. Cao's hope is relatively high!"
Yuan Shu's anger level is now full.
He was originally very concerned about being defeated by Cao Cao's men.
Now Lu Yan actually said in front of hundreds of thousands of people that Yuan Shu was not as good as Cao Cao?
Come on, Axi! Do I, Yuan Shu, have no respect for face? Is there anyone who looks down on others like you? In what way am I, Yuan Gongli, inferior to that eunuch?
Three Questions of the Soul,
But now that Lu Yan has been chatting with him to death, Yuan Shu no longer has any thoughts of recruiting Lu Yan.
Yuan Shu only had one thought in his mind right now, and that was that he wanted to kill Cao Cao right away and then go north to overthrow Yuan Shao, so that he could prove to the world that "I, Yuan Gongli, am the best in the world!"
Seeing Yuan Shu's chariot turn around and return to the military formation, Lu Yan and others quickly returned to Yangzhai City. Without further ado, it was time for their subordinates to see the real chapter.
Neither side had the idea of a duel in front of the battle. After all, Yuan Shu already knew that Cao Cao had a fierce man named Dian Wei, and there was also Zhao Yun. A duel would only cause discomfort for himself, so it would be better to just attack the city with an army.
.
The commanders-in-chief on both sides returned to their respective military formations and began to silently prepare for the next battle.
Yangzhai is the seat of Yingchuan County, and the city is naturally tall and strong. It is understandable how difficult it would be to rely on 80,000 people to capture a city guarded by 30,000 elite soldiers.
Yuan Shu also understood this truth,
In fact, he did not necessarily want to capture Yangdi City.
It’s just that in the past year or two, first his ace Sun Jian died, then he was kicked out of Nanyang after arguing with Liu Biao, and now he was beaten up by Cao Cao’s men not long ago.
Yuan Shu now has a lump of air in his chest.
And this breath,
Only blood can heal!
...
The war is about to begin,
Xi Zhicai glanced at Lu Yan, and after seeing him nodding to him, Xi Zhicai began to assign tasks.
"Yuan Shu does not have enough troops. He should only be able to attack in one direction. General Cao Ren, lead 10,000 soldiers to guard the south wall and confront Yuan Shu head-on!"
"Here!" Cao Ren clasped his fists and accepted the order, then strode away like a meteor.
"The three generals Cao Hong, Li Dian, and Yu Jin,
In order to prevent Yuan Jiujiu from making any dirty tricks,
You will each lead five thousand soldiers to guard the other three city walls. If there are any changes in the battle at the southern city wall, I will notify you further."
"Here!" After the three people left,
Xi Zhicai said to Dian Wei;
"Lieutenant Dianxiao, you lead two thousand soldiers to assist General Cao Ren. You must clear away the soldiers of Yuan who climbed up the city wall as quickly as possible!"
"Here!"
Xi Zhicai finally looked at Zhao Yun behind Lu Yan and said: "Zilong!"
Zhao Yun took a step forward, cupped his fists and said, "The general is here!"
"You lead three thousand cavalry out of the side door and destroy as many of the enemy's siege engines as possible.
But if you encounter Yuan Jun’s cavalry, retreat quickly and don’t let the battle linger!”
"Here!"
The leading generals around him all left,
Only three literati, Lu Yan, Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai, and the bodyguard leader Xia Houlan behind Lu Yan were left.
At this time, Lu Yan suddenly said: "Zi Heng, lead your brothers to protect the two military advisors."
Even though he was very confident that Yuan Shu could not attack Yangzhai City, Lu Yan still felt that he should be fully prepared.
"Here!" Xia Houlan didn't hesitate at all. After all, he was one of the few people who knew Lu Yan's true situation, and he still had great confidence in Lu Yan.
Seeing this, Guo Jia quickly asked: "Changsheng, you gave us all your personal guards, what will you do? Who will protect you?"
Seeing that Lu Yan remained silent, Guo Jia pulled Xi Zhicai's sleeves again and said, "Zhicai, please give me some advice."
Xi Zhicai was a little hesitant. He knew that Lu Yan had some mysterious methods, but he didn't know what Lu Yan's real situation was.
Seeing that Guo Jia wanted to help persuade him, Xi Zhicai said: "Yes, Changsheng, you should keep some bodyguards."
Lu Yan felt a little moved, but he still insisted: "It doesn't matter, I have my own means of saving my life."
Guo Jia wanted to persuade him again, but Xi Zhicai raised his hand to stop him and said: "Eternal life is not an ordinary person. To be filial, we should take care of ourselves first."
"Ah? What does it mean that he is not an ordinary person? Could it be that he is still an immortal?" Guo Jia's head was filled with questions.
Lu Yan was shocked when he heard this, and said to himself: "Damn it, can this be guessed? It's Guo Jia!"
...
"Obey the order! Attack the city!"
"Siege the city!"
"Siege the city!"
Yuan Shu returned to the center of the army,
The order to attack the city was accompanied by the rumble of war drums and spread throughout all Yuan's military formations!
The sound of war drums was relatively slow at first, and the siege soldiers began to advance step by step.
Subsequently,
The drum beat began to become more rapid, and when the drum beat every ten steps, the soldiers in charge of the siege began to charge!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Because Yuan Jun had the blessing of Yuan Shu's personal presence, their morale and combat effectiveness were unparalleled.
In addition to what he said before the battle, it was not just Yuan Shu who was holding his breath to prove himself.
Every soldier under Yuan Shu held his breath and wanted to prove himself and prove that they are the most powerful existence in the world!
on the city wall,
Finally withstanding the fiercest wave of attacks by Yuan Jun, Cao Jun was able to have a moment of respite.
Cao Ren quickly replaced the first group of soldiers defending the city and replaced them with a group of fresh troops who had been waiting for a long time.
A soldier from Cao who looked to be only 17 or 18 years old ran quickly up the city wall, seemingly looking for someone.
finally,
After walking a hundred steps, he finally saw that familiar face.
The soldier's footsteps were a little heavy. He came to the man and gently touched his cold body with his toes.
"Hey, you promised to go back and visit the brothels after this fight, why are you lying here pretending to be dead?"
He forced himself to say things in a joking tone that he didn't even believe.
The tears in my eyes could not stop falling down.
"elder brother!
Wake up!
elder brother!!!"
Finally, he couldn't hold it any longer and screamed at the top of his lungs, echoing over Yangzhai City for a long time.
War is so cruel!
After Cao Ren repelled the fourth wave of attacks,
Standing with the gaping sword standing, panting heavily, Dian Wei sighed to Dian Wei, who was covered in blood next to him:
"Yuan Shu also has soldiers who are not afraid of death!"
If Dian Wei hadn't appeared in every crisis,
He, Cao Ren, might actually be defeated by Ji Ling's army and the city defenses were attacked from the front!
Dian Wei replied angrily: "Lu Zhonglang once said that no one who can become a prince is simple."
