Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 714: Stalemate

Chapter 714

The square inches above the city’s head was the time when the heroes used their weapons, and Tai Shici, a fierce general with a knight and a thousand, was able to show off his skills, with spears and halberds in his hand, which killed the Cao soldiers on the city’s head. Chenghe.

Cao Cao noticed the brave and invincible Tai Shici, and couldn't help but ask Cheng Yu next to him: "Zhong De, who is the Jiangdong general holding a spear and spear at the head of the city?"

Having collected the Jiangdong Army information in advance, Cheng Yu, who had been prepared for a long time, calmly said: "Back to the prime minister, this is Jiangdong Army General Tai Shici, a native of Donglai in the North Sea. He followed Kong Rong in his early years and was later turned into a general by Liu Yaozheng. We fought with Sun Ce, convinced him, and since then I am willing to work for Sun Ce."

"Beihai Donglai people?"

Cao Cao's eyes lit up: "Can his family stay in Beihai?"

Qingxu two prefectures are now under the rule of Cao Cao, and Beihai County belongs to Qingzhou. If Taishici's family members are still in Beihai, maybe they can do something about it.

Cheng Yu shook his head: "Tai Shi's benevolent mother is very filial, and after he defected to Sun Ce, he took his mother from Qingzhou to Jiangdong."

"It's a pity." Cao Cao shook his head regretfully.

In just half an hour, the corpses of Cao Jun were piled up under the city. Cao Bing’s corpses were mixed with the corpses of Jiang Dong soldiers, but it was Cao Jun’s first soldiers and soldiers who climbed the city’s head. Sergeant Jiangdong desperately tried to win each other's life, and as a result, one slipped and rolled off the top of the city. The two went to death, but there was no beauty in the love story, only the brutality of blood.

The masonry above the city and the soil outside the city were filled with arrows from the Cao and Sun armies. The intensity of the war can be seen from the density of the arrows.

Cao Cao frowned as he stared at the dead and wounded Sergeant Cao.

"It seems that Jiangdong Soldiers are really resilient. It seems that Shu County will not be able to attack for a while. It is a pity that if we can go hand in hand with the second, and the north and the south will attack Jiangdong, wouldn't it be nice?" Cao Cao sighed.

Cheng Yu on the side whispered: "Prime Minister, our army can attract the main force of Jiangdong Army led by Zhou Yu here, and it is enough to create opportunities for Xiahoudian Army."

"Well, there are many casualties in the siege, so it's better not to attack."

Cao Cao shook his head and said, "No wonder Sun Tzu said that it is the best policy to defeat the soldiers without fighting, and the siege is indeed the lower policy."

Within this short half an hour, the Cao army who had attacked the city had killed and injured more than a thousand people. If Cao army attacked at any cost, it was feared that all the lives of 20,000 soldiers would be filled into the city of Shu County.

"Pass the order, let's retreat!"

Cao Cao gave the order, and the sound of Mingjin sounded in the army.

Dangdang!

Hearing the voice of Mingjin, Cao Chun and Le Jin, who were supervising the battle, had to act in accordance with the order despite their doubts. After all, if they violated Cao Cao's general order, the consequences would be serious.

In desperation, Le Jin and Cao Chun had to order to retreat.

"withdraw troops!"

Cao Bing, who was fighting fiercely above the city, was killed happily. Although he heard the voice of Mingjin, he was puzzled, but he followed the order, stepping on the ladder, and retreating to cover each other.

The Cao Jun who had attacked the top of the city retreated like a tide, and only Cao Jun's body remained on the top of the city for a while. Retiring the ladder truck, Cao Jun escorted the ladder truck to turn around and back into the formation.

"Cao Jun retired!"

"Our army repulsed Cao Jun!"

Seeing the Cao Jun slowly retreating under the city, thousands of Jiangdong Army all cheered and shouted, yelling at the Cao Jun under the city. A bold Jiang Dongbing uncovered his trouser belt, exposed the bird, and peeed under the city.

"Courageless Cao Bing, drink your grandpa's urine."

Sergeants Jiangdong laughed all the time when they saw it, while Cao Bing was furious and called for battle.

"Damn it, how dare these Jiangdong Rats take advantage of our army?"

"General, attack again, death is better than humiliation!"

Cao Xiu, who was irritable, was even more angry and asked Le Jin for his orders: "Lieutenant Le, Cao is willing to personally supervise the army and attack Shu County."

Le Jin glanced at him and said solemnly: "Wen Lie, the general also wanted to turn his head back to attack the city and be ashamed. But the military order is like a mountain. Since Prime Minister Cao has issued the military order, I will just follow it."

After that, Le Jin ignored him, and Cao Xiu grunted angrily, and rode his horse to follow.

Watching Cao Jun retreat, the Jiangdong Army guards in the city were naturally yelling, and Jiangdong Army general was also smiling. Only Zhou Yu's face was cold and his brows frowned as if thinking about something.

Chen Lie wiped the blood and sweat on his forehead, greeted him with a smile, and said to Zhou Yu: "The chief governor, I didn't think that Cao Jun, who is well-known in the world, was just like this. He retreated after attacking less than half an hour."

But he suddenly discovered that Zhou Yu's face remained as usual, and he couldn't help but wondered: "Don't you think that the general governor is happy that Cao Jun has retired?"

"Under the prestige, are there any imaginary scholars?" Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Zi Lie, don't you think Cao Jun is a bit anticlimactic?"

"A staggering tail?" Chen Wu scratched his scalp, and said to a little bit: "It seems that this is the case... Cao Jun's offensive was extremely fierce during this half hour, but he retreated inexplicably."

"Test!" Zhou Yu said suddenly.

"what?"

"Testing, this is a test of Cao Jun."

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed brightly, seeming to understand: "Cao Jun still has more power, but Cao Cao doesn't want to smash with our army to the end. He just wants to test the combat effectiveness of my Jiangdong army, so he attacked for a while and found out about me. After the army was fictitious, it retreated."

Chen Wu wondered: "Then what is the purpose of Cao Cao? Is it possible to achieve just to trap our army?"

"There is a possibility."

Zhou Yu said slowly: "Cao Cao is a scheming man and is good at using tactics to deal with enemy forces, such as breaking the yellow turban and attacking Xuzhou. If not necessary, he will never consume his troops. There must be another plan."

Chen Wu thought about it for a while, only feeling that his head felt like a thousand needles pierced, with a faint pain, and hurriedly shook his head.

"I can't think of it anymore. Most superintendents are extremely clever, maybe I can think of it. But, no matter what Cao Jun is, I wait for the grain and grass to be sufficient, just consume it with him."

When Li Shu rebelled, he had long estimated that Jiangdong Army might besiege Shu County. Therefore, most of Lujiang County’s grain and grass were concentrated in Shu County’s treasury in advance. Even more than 20,000 Jiangdong Army would be enough to eat two or three. Month, so Zhou Yu didn’t have to worry about food issues for a while.

After Cao Cao ordered the troops to be returned to the camp, Cao Xiu and other Cao generals were unreliable and asked him to fight, but Cao Cao flatly refused.

"The truth is that there is another decision, you just have to wait patiently!"

Then Cao Jun besieged but did not attack.
