Yanzhou, Puyang.

Since Liu Ye returned to Luoyang, he issued an order to garrison all over the country. The Liangzhou army defeated the siege of Yuan Shao, Liu Biao and other princes. For a moment, the Liangzhou army was quite quiet all over the place. He thought that there was no war recently, so Yu Jin returned to Puyang.

"It was carried by heaven, and the emperor ordered that general Pingdong was stationed in Yanzhou, which shocked the Central Plains and became the vassal screen of the capital city. I am very pleased with it. Today, I was promoted to Zhendong general, and I am here. "

Yu ban knelt on the ground, claimed to receive the order, sent off the eunuch, and stood up.

"Congratulations on general Zhendong." Xu Shu, with a smile on his face, arched his hand.

Yu ban waved his hand: "thank you for your heavy weapons. In fact, during this period of time, the general didn't do anything. It's a shame."

During these days, Liu Ye led tens of thousands of Liangzhou troops to defeat Yuan Shao first and then Wuhuan in Hebei Province. Zhang also defeated the powerful Nanyang army in Nanyang, only in Yanzhou. Although the troops were mobilized, he did not experience the war.

Xu Shu said with a smile: "it's not necessary to do so in Zhendong. The general ordered that the troops should be stationed vigorously to save grain and grass, so as to send troops to sweep the whole world in the future, and then Zhendong general would be indispensable."

Yu Jin nodded his head and said confidently, "my royal master will certainly be able to sweep the world."

It was during the discussion between ban and Xu Shu that a voice suddenly rang from the outside.

"The villain wants to see the general."

"Come in." Exclaimed Xu Shu.

When Xu Shu said this, he heard only a rush of footsteps, and a soldier from Liangzhou came in. He was very dusty. Obviously, he came all the way to report the news.

"What's going on?" Xu Shu asked.

"General, master." The Liangzhou soldiers gave a salute to the two men, then gasped for breath: "Cao's army launched an attack on Xue county. The enemy's offensive was very fierce, and our army suffered heavy casualties."

"Cao's army set up troops to attack Xue county?"

Yu Jin and Xu Shu looked at each other, and they could not help frowning.

"Well..." Yu Jin comforted Liangzhou soldiers and said, "this will know. Discuss with Xu Junshi. You can go down and have a rest."

"Thank you, general." The messenger's face was full of gratitude. He was tired all the way. He was immediately led down to rest by a guard.

"It's really strange." Xu Shu frowned and said, "how could Cao Cao choose to attack our army at this moment?"

"When Yuan Shao and Liu Biao attacked our army, it was the best time for Cao Cao to send troops." Xu Shu explained to the ban: "both Yuan Shao and Liu Biao were attacking our army. At that time, our army had some difficulties in the supply of food and grass. If Cao Cao chose to attack Yanzhou at this time, our army would have to fight in three ways. If there were any mistakes in any way, it would be extremely fatal, but Cao Cao did not send troops."

"Now that the battle of Yecheng is over and the general is still in Luoyang, why did Cao Cao set up troops to attack Xue County instead?" Xu Shu doubted.

Yu ban also frowned: "yes, Cao Cao is always cunning and wise. How could he choose to send troops at this time? Did he think that Cao Jun's own strength would be able to compete with our royal division? "

Xue county is located at the junction of Lu state and Pengcheng County, and is also the border area of Yanzhou and Xuzhou. If Cao Cao wants to enter Yanzhou, he must take Xue county.

However, the reason why Cao Cao chose to march into Xue county at this time caused the confusion of Xu Shu and Yu ban. Why didn't Cao Cao attack Yanzhou when the Liangzhou Army started several battles, but chose this opportunity?

"Cao Cao must have planned something else!" Xu Shu affirmed.

"Well." Yu Jin nodded his head to express his affirmation.

"But what is the real purpose of Cao Cao?" Xu Shu fell into deep meditation, but he couldn't think for a moment.

"Anyway, we have to send troops to support Xue county first." Yu Jin frowned and said, "Xue County guards are only a thousand, and they can't support for a few days under the fierce attack of Cao's army. We must send troops to support as soon as possible."

Yu ban told Xu Shu, "I don't know how many men and horses Cao has sent. I will personally take 10000 soldiers to support Xue county to see what Cao Cao is up to."

State of Lu, Xue county.

"Kill!"

Outside Xue County, nearly ten thousand Cao troops were arrayed in several thousands of troops. They were dressed in blue uniforms and floated with the strong wind. For a moment, it seemed like a blue sea surrounded Xue county.

Thousands of Cao's troops set up ladders and threatened the walls of Xue county.

Bang!

The ladder was erected and fell heavily on the city wall of Xue county. The iron hook stretched out from the upper end firmly grasped the wall bricks. This kind of ladder is a sharp weapon for attacking the city.

The garrison in the city can use the impact pole to break the ladder against the enemy attacking the city, but this kind of ladder with iron hook is not good, because the hook firmly hooks the wall.

Dong Dong Dong Dong!

Thousands of Cao troops climbed on the ladder and launched a fierce attack on Xue county. Thousands of Cao soldiers bite steel knives with leather shields on their arms and climb up with hands and feet."Cao army has attacked the city!"

"Pour gold juice!"

At the top of the city, the guards of Yanzhou army turned over a large vat emitting hot air.

Boom! The liquid in the big VAT is dark yellow. It has been baked and boiled at high temperature just now. Therefore, the hot gas comes out, and suddenly it is under the hood. Cao Jun, who was poured with gold juice, immediately screamed. The leather armour was immediately scalded by the hot gold juice, showing the forest white bone.

The golden juice is boiling at a high temperature with feces. At this time, when the head is poured down, it naturally opens the skin and meat poured by the army on the attacking side. Even if he was not scalded by the golden juice for a while, he would be infected and died later. Moreover, in this era, there is no solution. It can be said that he must die.

Although some of his comrades screamed, the fighting will of these Cao troops was extremely tough, so they continued to climb with their teeth clenched.

Although the gold juice is a sharp weapon for guarding the city, the total amount of gold juice on the tower is no more than these.

At this time, nearly a thousand Cao troops had already rushed to the tower with high speed, showing the ring head sword in their hands.

"Kill!"

Cao's troops on the top of the city are like tigers down the mountain and dragon on the sea. Their morale is greatly improved. On the contrary, the garrison soldiers in Xue county were ordinary soldiers of the prefecture, not elite field soldiers of Liangzhou army. When they saw Cao Jun, they were afraid of each other like tigers and wolves.

"Cao Jun is coming up!"

"Hold on, everyone. Don't let the enemy occupy the city."

Although the county soldiers in the city fought hard, more and more Cao soldiers came up from the ladder and gradually covered the city. More and more County soldiers were killed and wounded.

After Cao Jun killed all the county soldiers on the head of the city, he rushed into Xue county.
