    Cao Zhen had a gloomy look on his face. He found that he had been having nightmares recently.

    It¡¯s still the kind of nightmare that I can¡¯t control.

    The ten-day deadline mentioned by Zhao Yun was getting closer and closer, and Cao Zhen became more and more panicked.

    For example, last night, after a busy day, I thought I could have a good rest.

    But he had several dreams intermittently, each dream was different, but there was one thing in common, that is, Zhao Yun broke through the Hu Pass, and then walked towards him with a sinister smile on his face.

    On one occasion, he was captured alive and cooked alive.

    There was another time when I was tied up and put on a trebuchet, and flew into the air. I was awakened every time, and my back was always wet and covered in cold sweat.

    As these trebuchets continued to project special stones, Cao Zhen was no longer confident in guarding Hu Pass.

    Maybe Zhao Yun can really do it and win Hu Pass within ten days.

    Even if Cao Zhen worked hard for more than ten days, what about twenty days?

    It¡¯s scary to think about it.

    Every day starts with a trebuchet throwing boulders.

    No one can sleep with that rumbling sound.

    Cao Cao's army was on the city wall, trembling.

    At noon, Zhao Yun sent out siege troops, commanded by Zhang He.

    The army was vast, and siege equipment such as ladders and wells were everywhere.

    "Listen, you cowards in Huguan, surrender quickly, otherwise the sword will be merciless, and when we fight in, there will be a river of blood." Zhang He roared from below. He has been on the war for so long and has not been able to fight well. Now he finally has  Opportunity.

    "Fire the arrow!" Cao Zhen shouted from the city wall.

    He has been working extremely hard these past few days and has not been able to sleep well. He has long had a fire in his heart. Once he was angered by Zhang He, he could no longer bear it.

    ¡°Fuck, isn¡¯t it just for fun?  come!  Who is afraid of whom!

    Zhang He roared angrily: "Cao Zhen, you are a shy turtle, how are your butt flaps?"

    Damn it, you really don¡¯t know what to do!

    Cao Zhen¡¯s stab wound was almost healed, but now that he was provoked by Zhang He, he became furious.

    "Set me an arrow! Shoot him, shoot him!"

    Cao Zhen knew that there was no possibility of d¨¦tente between the two sides, so he was asking for trouble by arguing with Zhang He about surrender.

    Zhang He said this to mock Cao Zhen. The latter was Cao Cao's godson and would not surrender easily.

    "Attack, capture Cao Zhen and cook him in a pot!"

    Zhang He shouted and ordered the soldiers to attack layer by layer.

    Cao Zhen¡¯s anger increased. He had just dreamed of being cooked last night. Did it really come true?

    Whoosh whoosh whoosh¡ª¡ª

    Cao Cao¡¯s troops on the city wall began to fire arrows to prevent the ladder from being built.

    Thirty wells were pushed out from Yangzhou, and they were densely packed with crossbowmen.

    Cao Zhen's expression changed, and he was frightened by the Yangzhou Army's generosity.

    "Charge! Charge!" Zhang He shouted and commanded, and then yelled a few more words, "Cao Zhen, wait for me, I will only hurt your balls this time!"

    Cao Zhen¡¯s face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and his buttocks were aching. If his balls were also injured, how could he survive?

    Whizzing¡ª¡ª

    The crossbowmen on the well began to fire, suppressing Cao Cao's army on the city wall.

    The two sides began to compete with each other and fired fiercely.

    If you are not careful, your life may be in danger.

    The infantry took advantage of the gap, put the ladder on the city wall, and began to climb along the ladder.

    ¡°Well done!¡±

    Cao Zhen personally commanded, and his personal guards protected him with iron shields to guard against crossbow arrows fired from Jinglan.

    "Pour the water on!"

    Cao Zhen roared angrily and asked the soldiers to push up the prepared boiling water and pour it down the ladder.

    Several Yangzhou soldiers raised their shields to block, and some of their skin was wet and painful.

    They endured the pain and continued to raise their shields to block their comrades below.

    "Fire oil!"

    Seeing that the hot water had little effect, Cao Zhen ordered the soldiers to bring up the prepared kerosene.

    When the kerosene flowed down the ladder, the Yangzhou soldiers quickly abandoned the ladder and retreated in an orderly manner.

    Then the fire broke out, immediately burning more than a dozen ladders.

    Of course, there were also some unlucky ones who didn¡¯t have time to retreat and fell down one by one screaming.

    "Cao Zhen, do you only know some dirty tricks? - Give me rockets!"

    When Zhang He saw this, he was furiousstop.

    The crossbows continued to fire, while the archers fired rockets.

    The two sides went back and forth, and for a while, the Yangzhou Army did not take advantage.

    At most, they are well-trained and their losses are limited.

    Generally speaking, Zhang He still suffered a little loss.

    Cao Cao¡¯s army had a large shield defense and had prepared defensive tools long ago, so the casualties were not that heavy.

    The Yangzhou Army¡¯s most effective means of attack are crossbows and bows.

    It¡¯s a pity that Cao Zhen was on guard.

    Zhang He looked at his soldiers screaming in the city. He was in unbearable pain and could not help but frown.

    The battle lasted for three hours and finally ended in the defeat of the Yangzhou Army.

    "Hahaha, our army is victorious!"

    Warm cheers erupted from the city wall, and Cao Zhen also breathed a sigh of relief.

    His preparations all came in handy.

    Zhang He retreated reluctantly, but the terrain of Huguan was "a hollow in the middle with two peaks facing each other, as strong as the mouth of a pot." It was not to mention steep, and if you want to win, you must be prepared for a protracted battle.

    "Thank you for your hard work." Zhao Yun said calmly.

    Seeing Zhao Yun so calm, Zhang He found it difficult to understand.

    "Zilong, the ten-day deadline is coming soon. Don't worry, I'm worried for you."

    After finishing speaking, Zhang He sighed.

    During this period, they weakened the will and morale of the defenders, but there was still a long way to go before they achieved real victory.

    Today¡¯s siege is the best example.  If you want to win the Hu Pass, you must sacrifice your life to fill it.

    "Jun Yi, don't panic, take your time, it's Cao Cao who should be anxious." Zhao Yun said confidently.

    "How do you say this? What are you hiding from me?" Zhang He also sensed something unusual and asked quickly.

    Jia Xu smiled slightly and said: "It's very simple, just do your own calculations."

    Think about your sister!

    Zhang He almost cursed.

    "Please ask your military advisor for advice!"

    In Yangzhou, you must maintain a humble attitude so that someone can answer your questions.

    ¡°Otherwise, everyone will pretend to be an expert.

    "The stone-throwing attacks in recent days have put great pressure on Cao Cao, and he will definitely find ways to destroy it."

    "And today's siege made Cao Cao see the 'weak' nature of the Yangzhou army."

    "I guess reinforcements from Cao Cao's army are coming soon. Combining these three points, what do you think of?"

    Zhang He understood it after thinking about it for a moment.

    Cao Cao will definitely go to war!

    And the way of fighting is probably a night attack!

    Because until now, they have not found any reinforcements from Cao Cao's army.

    And Cao Cao is in Huguan, how could there be no reinforcements coming?

    When all factors are combined, the inference is very reliable.

    "Is this why you made fake catapults?"

    "Many of those catapults are fake. They can't hide them from Cao Cao's army, but they can't hide them from his own people.

    "Yes, everything is ready. It just depends on whether Cao Cao will be fooled." Jia Xu said confidently.

    "Insidious! So insidious!" Zhang He had to admire him.

    From the beginning, Jia Xu was trapped.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
