As the war drums beat, morale rose for a moment, and countless armies headed directly towards Tan County.
"kill!"
There are dozens of climbing ladders all over the place.
The soldiers on the city defense obviously did not expect that Cao Jun would move so quickly.
Without any warning, ten thousand troops charged over.
The expressions of the soldiers on the city defense changed drastically.
"Quick, tell the lord!"
"Archers prepare!"
The soldiers surrounding the city defense moved closer to this side.
Obviously, at such a tense moment, Liu Bei could not have been unprepared, and countless soldiers came to the city wall one after another.
The prepared falling rocks were thrown downwards, while countless arrows were shot towards the army below.
Immediately afterwards, a scene that made them despair happened.
These soldiers are all covered in armor, and unless you can aim your arrow at their faces, attacks from other locations will not cause any damage at all.
Even if you are lucky and hit a location not covered by the armor, it will not be fatal. Only the falling rocks can still have a certain effect.
However, the accumulation of rockfall was limited and transportation was troublesome. They could not find more. After just a few rounds, the rockfall was exhausted.
However, the 10,000-strong army only injured less than 1,000 people.
"My lord, my lord! Something bad has happened. Cao Jun is preparing to attack!"
The soldiers who left the city defense immediately came to Liu Bei to report the situation.
After hearing this, Liu Bei's face instantly turned pale.
"How is that possible!"
According to the information he read, Cao Jun made very few forceful attacks, and they all used strategies to make detours.
Liu Bei reacted almost instantly.
"Everyone, come to the city gate!"
Then he shouted loudly: "No matter what, we must guard the city gate!"
Liu Bei's eyes were already covered with bloodshot eyes, showing strong unwillingness.
"impossible!"
"Impossible, how could I, Liu Bei, live here?"
Under Liu Bei's order, everyone headed towards the city gate. At this moment, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei also rushed over.
The faces of the two men were not good-looking. Now that Cao Jun was attacking, the defense of Tan County was average. In addition, the money was lost, and the Mi family's support disappeared.
Even for the storage of feathers and arrows, they don't have much left.
At this moment, Liu Bei was obviously still unwilling. He looked at the two of them and said, "Yun Chang, Yide, follow me to defend the city. If we can defend it, we can survive this disaster!"
"If we can't hold on, we'll flee again!"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei on the side nodded and said: "Okay, brother, we will let you go."
All the fighting forces in Tan County are moving towards the city defense. It is obvious that Liu Bei does not want to lose this last city. After all, now that all the heroes are together, it is difficult to obtain a city.
Liu Bei knew this very well, so he was so obsessed with Tan County.
Facing the fierce attack of Cao Jun, these archers could not stop them at all.
The soldiers climbing the ladder seemed to be able to predict what was happening on the city defense, and they even avoided the soldiers' attacks with ease.
And this is not a coincidence, all the other soldiers around him are like this.
From the perspective of outsiders, these soldiers were by no means the first time they attacked the city. They were definitely veterans among veterans.
The defenders on the city defense looked shocked. What else could they use to defend the city?
Zhao Feng, who was watching all this from a distance, smiled, and everyone on the side also showed a hint of admiration.
In the simulation training arranged by Zhao Feng, some soldiers were trained in simulated siege warfare.
These trainings were unprecedented in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Who would have thought that someone would spend huge financial resources to train these things?
The weapons used in the training were naturally made of wood, and the simulated height of the city wall was all paid for with money.
Looking at these soldiers who had easily boarded the city defense, Zhao Feng showed a smile. You must know that the intensity of city defense in their simulated training was even higher than this.
At that time, these soldiers who have participated in the city siege simulation can be formed into a separate military formation and called city-breaking tiger soldiers.
This was one of the reasons why Zhao Feng didn't have any rebuttal in the face of the strong attack. He just wanted to see the results of their training.
After all, Zhao Feng still cares about these soldiers.
On top of the Tan County city defense, the defenders had no idea that Cao Cao's army was so fierce and had already scaled the city wall in such a short period of time.
The faces of Liu, Guan, and Zhang who hurried over suddenly changed drastically.
Cao's army, which was already crowded on the city defense, was fighting with Liu's army, and the soldiers who climbed up the ladder were ignored. Countless soldiers rushed up one after another.
In terms of combat power, these soldiers are no match for Cao's army. Within a quarter of an hour, the entire city defense will be occupied by them.
Moreover, a large wave of soldiers have gathered above the city defense and are approaching the city gate, obviously preparing to open the city gate in one fell swoop!
Liu Bei looked shocked.
"How is that possible!"
Can the city be breached so quickly?
In the minds of the three of them, they had never heard of such a battle in which the city defenses could be defeated in a short period of time.
Liu Bei couldn't help but tremble. In just a moment, he had already made up his mind.
"Second brother, third brother, let's retreat!"
If you can persist in something, you will naturally persist for a while, but Chengmen is almost unable to persist, so why persist?
Liu Bei didn't hesitate at all and was ready to run away. After all, Liu Bei's name was not given casually.
There is no way to do this, and it is not a deliberate attempt to blackmail him. Liu Bei has always been at a disadvantage in the early stage, and he will naturally run away if he cannot be defeated.
But precisely because of this, Liu Bei has great potential and can become a hero.
After all, those who did not escape have become steamed buns, and those who ran away are the real heroes!
Liu Bei did not call out to the soldiers who were still guarding the city gate, because he needed these people to cut off his rear.
They just retreated directly with the soldiers who had not reached the city gate.
"The gate of Tan County is lost, everyone retreats!"
As Liu Bei shouted, all the soldiers retreated.
At the same time, without the support from the rear, the Tanxian City Gate was completely separated and disintegrated, and was truly lost.
With the influx of Cao's army, the gates of Tan County were opened directly, and countless people showed shocked expressions.
After resting on the first day, they attacked on the second day, and within an hour, the city was broken!
This is also unique in history, and it is definitely the fastest battle.
You know, it's not unusual for people to fight for a tough battle even if it lasts for a month.
At this moment, all the soldiers along the way in Tan County were killed by Cao Jun, and blood flowed into rivers for a while. Countless people were frightened and hid in their homes.
But there was no sign of Liu Bei and others, so they obviously abandoned the city and fled.
"Zilong, don't worry about Tan County. You immediately lead five thousand elite cavalry and head towards Qingzhou to chase Liu Bei!"
"There will be someone in Qingzhou to pick you up when the time comes!"
Zhao Feng said directly.
Cao Cao on the side looked puzzled and asked: "Then why did Liu Bei flee towards our Qingzhou?"
"Since the military advisor had already predicted this, why not stop them all?"
