The catapult was really amazing. As soon as it appeared, Cao Cao suffered a lot.
In particular, the impact on morale is even more serious.
Now many soldiers are afraid to go to the city.
"It's terrible. There are stones bigger than millstones in the world. "
"If you hit it, it's meat cake."
"Once the city wall is smashed, it is a big hole. If people are there, they will die."
"The stone was thrown by Zhang Yu's soldiers. They are all heavenly soldiers and generals."
After the soldiers went down, all kinds of rumors spread.
I can't help it. It's too scary.
A lot of them were scared.
Some people don't even know why the stone will fly, just know to hide under the battlements shivering.
Morale in the city was greatly affected.
The catapult continued to roar, and many places were smashed by them.
However, Cao Jun had no choice.
Cao Jun even wanted to give up the city wall.
It took a whole day and many places collapsed.
When a new day comes, Zhang Yu orders the soldiers to start smashing again.
After a while, Zhang Yu ordered the soldiers to climb the city.
When they climbed up, there was little resistance.
Cao Jun found that it was too late for Zhang Yu's army to climb up.
The soldiers who went up immediately occupied the important place.
"Come on, let's get an archer up there." Zhang Yu found that many soldiers had gone up, and it was a good time to attack inside.
If the city wall is occupied, the time for a decisive battle will soon come.
Cao Cao was in the prefecture, and the soldiers came in a hurry.
"Lord, the wall is occupied." The soldier reported.
As expected, Cao Cao closed his eyes and waved the soldiers down.
Several men who got the news came in a hurry.
"Mendel, while there is still a chance, you must leave first." Xu you suggested.
In fact, Xu you also wants to leave. It's too dangerous here.
But he can't say he wants to run.
Cao Cao's identity is doomed that nothing can happen to him. He has an accident. Although there is still one Cao ang, his influence will certainly be in great trouble due to this great change.
However, when Cao Cao left, the morale of the whole army was bound to drop sharply.
Cao Cao is also entangled.
"No, I can arrange soldiers and horses to escort you back first, but I will stay until the last moment." Cao Cao said firmly.
He can't leave. After leaving, Zhang Yu can take the city more easily.
"Lord, please leave with us. We can't do without you." Xun you persuades to say.
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "my son has grown up and has outstanding ability. Besides, I have several generals to protect him, and nothing will happen."
Cao Cao still didn't agree to leave. Once he left, it would be even harder to fight.
Several people tried to persuade him, but Cao Cao still didn't agree to leave.
And a few of their counselors have no choice but to leave. It's useless for them to stay. On the contrary, they will delay.
If they want to leave, they have to remove the stones at the south gate first.
In the south gate, Zhang Yu deliberately does not arrange troops, of course, to prevent them from attacking.
Put the south gate to let them leave, Zhang Yu hopes that they can run and solve them in the wild, which is better than when they get together.
Xu you and others left under the escort of more than 20000 cavalry. Zhao Yun found out and went to pursue them. After several hours of pursuing, he gave up without catching up.
On the other side of Yecheng, Zhang Yu was not in a hurry after he occupied the city wall. He just began to clean up the stones at the gate and attack when he was ready.
Now that the south gate is also opened, Zhang Yu sends Zhao Yun to the south gate to prevent them from sneaking out.
Of course, to prevent them from escaping, everything is ready. When the new day comes, Zhang Yu will take his soldiers and horses to commit suicide.
But Guo Jia and Xi Zhicai disagree.
"My Lord, this attack will never come down in three or five days. I will go back tomorrow. You can't go in until the soldiers confirm that it's safe, in case they burn another fire."
In the past, several counsellors were afraid that Cao Jun would set fire again. Cao Jun set fire, but he wanted to burn everything.
Zhang Yu had no choice but to listen to the suggestions of the two men, and Cao Jun was ready on the main roads.
It's not easy for hundreds of thousands of troops to fight in this small place, so Cao Cao asked the troops to stop at a distance.
"Destroy the city and capture Cao Cao alive."
"Capture Cao Cao alive."
"Go in."
The morale of the army in Jiangdong is like a rainbow.
Zhang Yu let more than 100000 Fusang troops advance in two directions, the other two directions Zhang Yu's troops advance.
The four gates attacked at the same time and pushed into the city.
In the south gate, they met the most resistance, which was the direction of Cao Jun's escape, so they arranged more troops.
"Kill, kill, kill."
The army entered slowly.
When Zhang Yu was outside the city, he could also hear the shouts of killing.
When the two armies meet, Zhang Yu's morale is very high.
The attack was not very smooth. Although the morale of these Cao troops was much lower, their generals came out to fight in person and blocked Zhang Yu's wave after wave of attacks.
The most eye-catching place is Fusang's army. They are not human when they are crazy.
Crazy impact, although the casualties are very large, but Cao Jun casualties are also very large.
With the cooperation of Zhang Yu's army, the effect is very good.
Cao Jun's strategy is to resist a little and try to consume Zhang Yu's army.
"After entering, check the residents on both sides to see if there are ambushes. Those who refuse to open the door can break in, but do not harm the people." Zhang Yu ordered.
This is a time of war. We can't worry too much. We must.
Zhang Yu also went to the front line in person.
As soon as he got there, he met Zhang Yan and Xia Houyuan.
"Hello, two generals. Now they are surrounded by our army. It's hard to escape. It's better to surrender with me." Zhang Yu said to them.
Zhang maxillofacial expressionless, and XiaHouYuan is broken.
"The gates of the city have been broken by our king. There is no one who can hinder our king's domination of the world. If we surrender to our king, we will still be famous in history." Zhang Yu said.
Zhang Yu naturally knows that these are all nonsense, but these words will spread. Under such heavy pressure, it is inevitable that the morale of the army will float, and some people will surrender.
