    Early in the morning on the second day, after breakfast, there was an earth-shattering drum sound from Cao Ying.

    The defenders at the top of the city heard the sound and took action quickly.

    They knew that the sound of the drum was the signal for Cao Jun¡¯s attack.

    Sure enough, after a while, the dark Cao army rushed forward again.

    Yesterday was Han Hao's first attack, and he only wanted to test the strength of Zhang He's defenders.

    Therefore, a total of five thousand troops were dispatched.

    But today he is determined to take the city in one go.

    Therefore, 10,000 troops were dispatched directly, and the rest were on standby in the rear, ready to swarm at any time.

    Facing more Cao Jun than yesterday, the defenders looked very cautious, knowing that today would probably be another tough battle.

    After yesterday's test, both sides have a general understanding of the enemy's forces.

    Therefore, as soon as the bayonet is red, all kinds of means are poured out.

    Although on the scene, Cao Jun¡¯s casualties still far exceeded those of the defenders.

    But you must know that Cao Cao¡¯s army numbered 20,000, but the defenders only had 4,000.

    And as the defenders continue to die, the defensive strength of the city wall will plummet.

    By then, the real crisis will come.

    Zhang He understands this, and Han Hao also understands this.

    "Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked his life and attacked the city so desperately.

    Today¡¯s attack is still brutal, even more severe than yesterday.

    By the time the troops retreated in the evening, Cao Jun had suffered nearly 4,000 casualties.

    Zhang He's garrison was also reduced to less than 3,000 men.

    Therefore, although today's consumption was huge, Han Hao became more confident.

    "I think this afternoon, the strength of the defenders on the city has begun to decline.

    It can be seen that the other party also consumes a lot of money.  From what I can see, the city will be destroyed tomorrow!  "

    Originally, after two days of huge consumption, Han Hao's generals already had the intention of retreating.

    However, under Han Hao's analysis, he regained his confidence again and looked forward to tomorrow when the city will be broken.

    In Wushi County, Zhang He was also thinking about countermeasures.

    The consumption in these two days is really too great. The other party can support it, but I cannot bear it.

    "General, we are running out of arrows, and we can only hold on for one day at most!"

    "General, the rolling stone and wood have almost been consumed. We have even used the bricks and stones from the damaged houses in the city.

    That¡¯s it, I can only hold on for one more day at most.  "

    ¡°General, with the current number of soldiers, it is no longer enough to cover all the city walls.

    You can only choose two of them, otherwise the numbers will be scattered and you won¡¯t be able to withstand the opponent¡¯s onslaught!  "

    The people under his command kept reporting all kinds of news, but none of them was exciting.

    After hearing this, Zhang He frowned and remained silent for a long time.

    "Has everyone finished speaking?"

    Zhang He finally spoke out: "I probably know the situation reported by the generals. In fact, in the final analysis, there is only one sentence.

    That¡¯s why our army is in a very difficult situation now!  The generals understand that I also have an idea.

    ¡°Moreover, this general can foresee that if the enemy continues to attack with such intensity, our army will be able to persist for two days at most.  "

    After hearing this, the generals¡¯ faces became even more ugly.

    They naturally understood what Zhang He said, but they just didn't want to admit it.

    ¡°And now that the generals have spoken out, we can no longer deceive ourselves and others.

    However, Zhang He¡¯s expression was unusually calm, making everyone even more confused.

    "I have a plan to avoid the fate of the city being destroyed and people dying. It just depends on whether the generals have the courage to carry it out!"

    "General, just say it. Everyone is trapped in the city now, and life or death depends on it.

    As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will definitely try our best to fight for it!  "

    One of them was the first to answer, and other generals also echoed and agreed with this statement.

    Seeing this, Zhang He nodded with satisfaction and told his plan.

    "You can only wait for death if you stick to it, so I decided to take the initiative!"

    "What? Take the initiative? But without the protection of the city wall, wouldn't our army suffer greater casualties?"

    When all the generals heard this, they were all shocked and at the same time became even more puzzled.

      Originally they thought they had some plan, but they didn¡¯t expect it to be like this. Wouldn¡¯t this speed up their demise?

    Faced with the doubts of his subordinates, Zhang He didn't care.

    "Hahahahaha, generals, please listen to me carefully. Even you can't think of this plan, let alone the enemy's army?

    Moreover, after two days of fierce fighting, Cao's army must be exhausted.

    So our army took the initiative to attack suddenly, and the other party couldn't react at all.

    When the time comes and we cooperate with the reinforcements, we will definitely defeat Cao Jun in one fell swoop and lift the siege!  "

    When everyone heard Zhang He's narration, they couldn't help but nodded in approval.

    But upon careful analysis, a huge problem was discovered.

    "Reinforcements? Are His Majesty's reinforcements still arriving?" All the generals said in surprise.

    However, Zhang He shook his head, like a basin of cold water, dousing their excitement.

    "His Majesty's army has not arrived yet, but have you forgotten that I sent Xiong'er out of the city before?"

    After everyone was reminded, they thought of Zhang Xiong¡¯s previous farewell without saying goodbye.

    Some people thought that Zhang He asked his son to leave early when he saw that the enemy army was strong.

    Now after listening to Zhang He¡¯s words, I realized that this had long been part of his plan.

    Zhang He arranged Zhang Xiong to the dense forest outside the city just to wait for this moment.

    Because a thousand sergeants cannot play a big role in the city.

    But if placed outside the city, it can catch you by surprise and become a surprise weapon.

    I am afraid that even Cao Jun could not imagine that Zhang He, who was already short of troops, would divide his troops again!

    After listening to Zhang He's story, the generals immediately became excited and full of confidence again.

    At this time, Zhang He revealed what he had done tonight.

    He decided to personally select eight hundred dead men, quietly fight out at night, and rush straight into the enemy camp.

    The enemy must not have expected that the other party would dare to take the initiative to attack, so they naturally neglected to take precautions.

    Zhang He can take advantage of this to create the momentum of thousands of troops in the night and defeat the opponent in one fell swoop.

    Then, when Zhang Xiong, who was ambushing in the mountains, heard the news and attacked again, he would definitely defeat Cao's army like a bamboo.

    When the generals heard this, they felt very excited just thinking about it.

    Therefore, almost everyone signed up to participate, hoping to fight with Zhang He to defeat the enemy.

    Afterwards, Zhang He arranged for the generals to go down and select the warriors.

    And he went straight to the kitchen and ordered the cooking soldiers to cook the sheep and slaughter the cattle to support these warriors.

    Therefore, the city that had been quiet became lively again.

    The soldiers were naturally very curious, but soon everyone knew the general's arrangement.

    Therefore, everyone took the initiative to sign up to join, and the momentum was huge for a while.

    Finally, after careful selection, eight hundred warriors were finally selected.

    These people's combat effectiveness is almost the strongest in the army. Under the leadership of the generals, they lined up in the open space in front of Zhang He's camp.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
