Dong Zhuo used all his strength to attack the city, but his own people used all their strength to hold them back.
No wonder the Marquis of Dongyang never mentioned the matter of welcoming Emperor Xian. It turned out that he had expected it a long time ago.
To welcome Emperor Xian, you must welcome those ministers. There are not so many evil spirits among the ministers.
¡°What¡¯s the use of keeping these people who are not engaged in production?
"But now that Yanzhou is not stable, how can Cao Cao kill him?"
I have a headache~
Cao Cao¡¯s head was about to explode. None of these people were safe.
"My lord, Dong Zhuo's army's siege has begun!" Xiahou Yuanhui reported.
"Who is defending now?" Cao Cao cheered up and raised his head.
No matter how troubled you are, you can¡¯t show it in front of your subordinates.
To be a commander, you must give your subordinates enough confidence.
"Cao Ren." Xia Houyuan said briefly.
Cao Cao nodded, immediately dressed neatly and came to the city gate.
"Kill!"
The shouts of killing soaring to the sky immediately brought Cao Cao into another world, and the matter of Xiandi and his ministers was temporarily put aside.
"Commanders, follow me to kill the enemy!" Cao Cao took out the Yitian Sword and pointed at Dong Zhuo who climbed up the city wall.
Seeing the lord coming in person, Cao Cao's army immediately pounced on the enemy like tigers.
Once again, Dong Zhuojun was driven off the city.
"This Cao Cao really has some tricks up his sleeve!" Dong Zhuo snorted coldly.
"It's just because the city wall is tall. If we fight in the field with real swords and guns, will we be afraid of them? One hundred thousand flying bear troops are enough to destroy them!" Niu Fu said.
Li Jue and Guo Si agreed: "General Niu's words are reasonable."
After all, the Flying Bear Army was led by the two of them, and as the main force, they did not go into battle.
Dong Zhuo's expression gradually improved, and he suddenly asked Li Ru nervously: "I heard that Liu Dingfang is here again?"
Li Ru nodded and said: "Our scout team destroyed more than a thousand people, so I sent people to investigate. Dongyang Hou led 20,000 men to guard Hulao Pass, and he has no intention of participating in the war at the moment."
I want to get a bargain again!
This was Dong Zhuo¡¯s first thought. Liu Dingfang is a very cunning person, and this cannot continue.
"Is there any way to get rid of him?"
Dong Zhuo asked this, and Li Ru had to say that he did, but he really had no good way, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "My lord, just teach Cao Cao a lesson. By annihilating his 150,000 troops, you can save your face. At that time, we will negotiate to force Cao Cao to hand over Emperor Xian."
Damn it!
That¡¯s all it can do!
Dong Zhuo is very unwilling, but there is no better way. You Liu Dingfang can't stay in Hulao Pass like a mangy dog, can you?
As soon as Liu Dingfang left, he could beat Cao Cao at any time without fear of him disobeying.
Thinking of this, Dong Zhuo reluctantly accepted Li Ru's plan.
Continue to attack Luoyang fiercely!
Wave after wave of troops climbed onto the city wall, and the newly built wells also moved into action, causing Cao Cao's army to suffer miserably.
After more than ten days, Cao Cao lost a total of 30,000 troops. This is an astonishing number!
Dong Zhuojun also suffered heavy losses, probably between 40,000 and 50,000.
This is a siege battle. You can imagine how awesome the Xiliang cavalry are. Even if they attack the city, they will not be inferior.
"We will suffer a great loss if we continue to spend like this." Xia Houyuan said.
Of course Cao Cao also knew the current situation, but he couldn't be distracted. It's not that he hadn't thought about attacking the camp, but the risk was too great.
Because after leaving the city, we have to face the Xiliang cavalry, the real cavalry.
So Cao Cao wanted to reduce the battle to a siege, but he didn't expect Dong Zhuo's army to be so fierce.
? Completely incredible.
As a result, Cao Cao is now unable to divide his troops to guard Hulao Pass.
With Hulao in Liu Ke's hands, Cao Cao was still a little worried.
"My lord, how about we try to attack the camp tonight?" Yu Jin said uncertainly, and he was not sure either.
"Wait a minute!" Cao Cao said.
Dong Zhuo attacked the city for three consecutive days, exhausting Cao Cao's army.
Similarly, Dong Zhuojun has also reached a critical point.
"Attack the camp tonight!" Cao Cao said with finality.
That night, there was noThere were no stars in the moon, it was pitch black.
Cao Cao divided his troops into three waves, including Cao Chun's tiger and leopard cavalry, and Xia Houyuan and Yu Jin's five thousand soldiers and horses.
The general who stayed behind became Cao Ren. Cao Ren did not dare to neglect at all. He was waiting at the top of the city at any time, waiting for news. If something unexpected happened, he would also be responsible for the rescue work.
Xia Houyuan easily broke into Dong Zhuo's camp and lit the fire, but Dong Zhuo's reaction was very strange and there was no panic at all.
"No! I fell into a trap!"
Xia Houyuan immediately fired his flaming bow and arrow to signal the other two groups of soldiers.
Sure enough, Dong Zhuojun came from all directions like a tide.
"Haha, little thief, where are you running from?" Li Jue laughed.
Li Ru had long expected that Cao Cao would gather his troops to make a dangerous move, so he was on guard. I just don¡¯t know which day Cao Cao will choose to launch a sneak attack. Because of this, Li Jue didn't sleep well for three whole days.
Fortunately, the wait has finally come today!
The army came out and immediately surrounded Xiahou Yuan's five thousand troops.
Xia Houyuan was anxious and wanted to break out, but was blocked by the Xiliang army.
"Brothers, that guy is so good at fighting, he must be a general of Cao Cao's army. If you kill him, I will be rewarded heavily!" Li Jue laughed.
The Xiliang army fought more bravely.
Fortunately, at this time, Cao Chun led the tiger and leopard cavalry to come out and rescued Xia Houyuan.
But Cao Cao's army also lost five thousand troops and horses. This was thanks to Xia Houyuan's alertness, otherwise the loss would have been even greater.
Cao Cao closed his eyes silently.
Why is it so difficult to defeat Dong Zhuo once?
Cao Cao considers himself a genius and will not underestimate himself because of this.
Suddenly, he thought of Liu Ke's "second pursuit method", which is to pursue once, pretend to fail, and then pursue a second time.
It was like this last time that he was able to take advantage of it and defeat Dong Zhuo's 200,000 troops.
So, is it possible to conduct a second night attack?
As long as you can succeed, what about picking up people¡¯s wisdom?
Cao Cao expressed his thoughts and everyone was shocked, but it was indeed a good idea.
Even Xia Houyuan, who had just escaped, was full of praise and said: "My lord has a clever plan, I will definitely succeed this time!"
Cao Cao selected elite soldiers again. Two hours later, it was almost dawn. This time, they attacked from another direction.
Dong Zhuojun was really unprepared!
Cao Cao set a fire and burned some food and grass.
However, this time he brought too few people, only 5,000 people.
And Dong Zhuojun¡¯s total is 300,000! Even if part of them is lost, it is not possible for a mere five thousand people to attack at night.
Therefore, there is no doubt that Cao Cao failed again, but caused greater losses to Dong Zhuo.
In other words, this wave is not a loss.
If a hundred thousand troops were sent out together, would they be able to defeat Dong Zhuo?
Cao Cao regretted very much that he did not have enough courage. Because the city wall gave him great confidence and completely restricted his thinking.
Without a desperate risk, how can you win when there is a huge disparity in strength? (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
