Three Kingdoms: Gou Shen I was overheard by Cao Cao

Page 480

"Besides, there are hundreds of thousands of soldiers in my city. Do you want to be an enemy of me with this tens of thousands of troops? You just retreat, and I don't care about you!"

Cao Cao didn't even bother to look at him, he held his Yitian sword high and swung it forward.

"Go to the stone! Aim at the tower! Launch!"

With an order, countless boulders were loaded and fired out.

Looking at the sky full of stones flying towards him, Yuan Shu's face turned pale!He hurriedly left the concubine beside him, and hid under the corner of the wall tremblingly.

"Hold on! Chen Lanlei Bo, you stand up for me!"

Lei Bo and the two were equally terrified, so easy to say!

You let us stand against such a big rock?What the heck!

Is this horse riding a human being able to withstand?Even if it is made of iron, it will fall apart.

"Your Majesty! You flatter us too much! We can't stand up!"

The two also shrank their heads, and hid behind the wall with Yuan Shu without grace. As for Ji Ling, seeing that the situation was wrong, he ran away directly with Yan Xiang on his shoulders.

Qiao Rui and Zhang Xun stayed with the two of them, and they also left Yuan Shu and ran away. They didn't want to become meat cakes.

As nearly a hundred large stones fell, there was a thunderous earthquake on the city wall!Their ears were almost deafened by the explosion.

Countless soldiers and generals were crushed to death for a while, even the fragments from the cracked stones killed many people.

The city tower and the arrow tower collapsed immediately when they were touched by stones, and a bunch of them were crushed to death. There were screams on the entire city wall.

"Shoot! Keep firing! Give 'em a blast!"

Cao Cao gave the order again with a stern expression on his face.

As more than a dozen rounds of stones were launched, the city wall was already stained red with blood, countless dead were killed, and the ground was covered with muddy flesh.

Those archery towers all collapsed, and Yuan Shu and the others squatted behind the wall shivering, holding up a shield to prevent the gravel from killing them.

A few minutes later, after hearing no movement, the three of them poked their heads out.

His concubines, lieutenants, military generals and civil servants all fled dead and fled, and there were not many people left on the city wall.

"Your Majesty! We can't go on like this! We must lead our troops to destroy their catapults, otherwise the city will be destroyed in a few days!"

"That's right! Soldiers don't dare to go up to the tower for defense. What if they set up a ladder?"

Lei Bo and Chen Lan turned their heads to look at Yuan Shu with eagerness in their eyes.

Yuan Shu yelled, he didn't expect Cao Cao to be so good at shooting. Others attacked the city with arrows, one by one.

It's good for him, the ejaculation is such a big lump!

"Then you guys go! You're all here for nothing! Just keep one! I'm going down first, remember to report if you have anything to do!"

Yuan Shu glanced outside the city and saw that Cao Cao was still preparing to launch a new offensive.

Quickly grabbed the corner of the dragon robe, and quickly left the city wall, this place is simply a hell!He is the Nine-Five Supreme, so he cannot take risks!

There was bitterness on the faces of Chen Lanlei and Bo, they didn't remember them when there were good things, and it was theirs when there were difficulties.

After that, Lei Bo led five thousand light cavalry out of the city, trying to charge and destroy the catapults, but they were all repelled by Xiandeng and the leopard riders!

Chen Lan stayed on the city wall, and recruited many soldiers to guard it, for fear that the enemy would attack the city with ladders.

"Your Majesty! No way! The soldiers can't rush out, their firepower is too strong! Even a shield can't do it!"

"Those dozens of iron bumps are too fierce. When our big shield is lightly touched by them, it will be broken like paper! There is no match for it!"

A few hours later, it was already dark!

Lei Bo came to the county government office and reported to Yuan Shu who was drinking Sprite.

Yuan Shu trembled all over, his heart was full of fear.

"If you can't get out the main gate, then attack from the west gate and the north gate! Do you still need me to teach you?"

Lei Bo frowned, with powerlessness in his eyes.

"But... these two gates were guarded by Pan Feng and Xia Houyuan, who came to support from Xiaopei, and they couldn't rush out at all! Your Majesty, you know their bravery!"

"What's more, the soldiers they lead add up to more than [-]! How can the last general be defeated?"

Yuan Shu was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. Could it be... Could it be that his Zhong Clan will be wiped out today?

But this emperor has only been in office for less than a month!He still has so much jewelry and money to squander!

The most painful thing in the world is that when a person dies, the money is not spent!He is not reconciled!

When he was anxious, Chen Lan also ran in disheartened, with burns all over his body!

"Your Majesty! It's not good, the big thing is not good! Thief Cao and the others shot fire oil! The fire oil caught fire as soon as it touched it, and now the city wall has become a sea of ​​flames! Soldiers were killed and injured countless times!"

"Even the military advisor Yang Hong has turned into a pile of ashes!"

Hearing this, Yuan Shu hurried to the entrance of the hall to have a look, as expected!The city gate is full of fire!Light up half the county town.

Looking at this scene, Yuan Shu staggered and fell to the ground!

"Heaven is going to kill me, Yuan Shu! I don't want to!"

"Could it be...is there no other way? I really can't beat Cao Cao? Why does he have so many magical weapons?"

Yan Xiang couldn't bear Yuan Shu's sad appearance.

After Yan Xiang sighed slightly, he glanced at Ji Ling and stood out.

"Your Majesty! If you are willing to trust the old minister, the old minister can help you!"

As soon as these words came out, Yuan Shu seemed to have grasped at straws, stood up, and firmly pinched Yan Xiang's shoulders.

"Military Master! Military Master, I believe in you! I believe everything you say!"

Yuan Shu finally understood a sentence, Lu Yao knows horsepower, and years can tell people's hearts!

I snubbed Yan Xiang in every possible way, but in the end it was this guy who solved his problems.

Yan Xiang nodded, turned around and said to Lei Bo and Chen Land.

"Two generals! Please lead your troops to guard the city wall. Let Rong make some preparations, and he will definitely let Cao Jun rest tomorrow!"

The two of them frowned, although Cao Ying was not attacked at night because of the fire on the city wall, they still did not believe that Yan Xiang could retreat to Cao Ying.

"Sir, is it reliable?"

"Don't worry! The Shanren have their own tricks, Cao Ying is nothing more than that! I can guarantee that they will not hurt His Majesty at all!"

Yan Xiang waved his hands, and the two heaved a sigh of relief, then folded their hands and retreated.

"That's good! The two of us are going to put out the fire! Just tell me if you need it!"

The two of them didn't discover the meaning hidden in Yan Xiang's words at all, and they didn't suspect him.

After the two left, Yan Xiang looked at Yuan Shu anxiously.

"Your Majesty! The minister's clever plan is to use the best plan among the 36 plans!"

"What? Let's go? Didn't you just say that you are sure they can't hurt me? That's it?"

Yuan Shu was surprised for a while.

Yan Xiang sighed.

"Yes! That's it! Look, Your Majesty, three of the four city gates have been beaten and maimed by the Cao bandits! Now only one remains unsieged!"

"If we stick here, we will be encircled and wiped out by Cao thief! He Xuzhou is near here, and now the army has 10,000+ here."

"And they are still gathering in a steady stream, and the forces are above us! We have no chance of winning!"

"I suggest that Your Majesty, taking advantage of the darkness and confusion tonight, should leave immediately through the south gate! Take the gold and silver you can carry, and hurry to Shouchun!"

Yuan Shu hesitated extremely, with a look of entanglement and reluctance.

"But...but if that's the case, I won't be able to bring much money with me!"

"If we flee with a large army, the bandits Cao will definitely pursue them at night. Wouldn't that be falling into their hands? Putting ourselves in a place where we can never recover?"

Yan Xiang shook his head slightly, a ruthless look flashed in his eyes!

"Your Majesty, at this critical moment... someone needs to be sacrificed! Now all the officials are dying and fleeing! Only General Lei Bo, Chen Lan, Jiling, Zhang Xun, and Qiaorui are left who can lead troops!"

"I think we can take advantage of Lei Bo's ignorance and keep them here to hold back Cao Jun. We can bring some troops and money and flee to Shouchun!"

"It's far away from Yanzhou, and Cao Cao's supply line can't be stretched so long, so as long as we escape back, we'll be safe!"

Yuan Shu couldn't make up his mind and hesitated.

"But this... my army and generals..."

"Your Majesty! If you hesitate any longer, the South Gate will be surrounded! When we fall into Cao Cao's hands, will he let us go?"

"If you keep the green hills, you're not afraid of running out of firewood! As long as your Majesty is alive and relying on the big tree of the Yuan family, are you afraid that you won't be able to make a comeback?"

"Besides, Shouchun Liu Xun still has tens of thousands of troops! We can also bring tens of thousands this time, our Zhong family is still a big country!"

Yan Xiang persuaded him earnestly, clarifying the stakes for Yuan Shu.

When Yuan Shu thought of what would happen to him when he was arrested, he shuddered on the spot, and immediately made a decision!

"Okay! Sir! My safety... depends on you guys!"

Yan Xiang nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I... will arrange everything seamlessly!"

Chapter 556 Dang County is broken, Lei Bo and Chen Lan surrender

"Come on! Go and inform Lei Bo, Chen Lan and the two generals, and tell them that we have a big move tonight and are going to make a surprise attack!"

"Tell them not to leave the city wall no matter what they hear, and they must hold Cao Ying!"

Yan Xiang immediately asked someone to send a message to Chen Lanlei Bo, and the two happily agreed, thinking they could turn things around.

As everyone knows, the two of them have already been sold!

That night, the two were waiting!Wait for Yan Xiang's big move!

However, the sky gradually brightened, and they didn't wait for someone to surprise Cao Ying.

"Report to the two generals! Your Majesty, Yan Xiang, Ji Ling and the others have already fled with some money and [-] soldiers and horses!"

"What? They escaped? Tamade! I'll guard the city for you!"

As soon as the words were finished, there was another bombardment from the catapult outside.

Lei Bo was so frightened that he quickly hid in the corner, hung a white cloth with a spear, stretched it out and shook it.

"Prime Minister Cao! Don't shoot! It will cause accidents if you shoot it! We surrender!"

Lei Bo was not stupid, he was not loyal to Yuan Shu, but he stayed for the sake of high officials and generous salary.

Now that he has been abandoned tragically, when will he wait if he does not surrender at this time?He knew that he would not have a chance to escape, because he couldn't escape Cao Ying's pursuit.

Rather than being hacked to death with a knife, it is better to surrender and try to get a job as an official.

Looking at the white flag on the tower, Cao Cao smiled gratifiedly.

"Brother, Yuan Shu escaped as expected. The spies saw them leave last night. You are really good at predicting things!"

Xia Houzhe smiled disapprovingly.

"There are tens of thousands of them in the city. If you want to block all the doors, they will probably fight with their backs when they are desperate, and we will suffer a lot of casualties by then!"

"But if you leave a door, they can see the hope of survival and only think about escaping. In this way, the internal differentiation will be made, and it will be much easier to break through!"

Everyone nodded. They all understood this truth, but they didn't expect Yuan Shu to be so timid, and ran away as soon as he was threatened.

In the next few hours, Cao Cao asked all the generals under his command to busy count and recruit the surrendered troops.

And he himself went to the warehouse with Xia Houzhe and Guo Jia Xi Zhicai!

A few people nestled in the vault and roamed around!

"Hahaha! Money! It's all small money! It's so cool, I got rich overnight! I didn't expect that there is so much money in King Liang Xiao's grave! In the past two years, there are military supplies!"

"My lord, from a rough look, I'm afraid there are [-] to [-] gold, right? I heard that Yuan Shu took away quite a lot! When shall we... get back that half of the property?"

Guo Jia looked at Cao Cao seriously, but his hands were not idle.

From time to time, he grabbed a tael of gold and threw it into his crotch to hide when Cao Cao was not paying attention.
