Chapter 819

After listening to Pang Tong's analysis, all the generals looked at the battlefield under Renqiu City one after another. It was as Pang Tong said. The generals were all surprised. Zhu Huan said, "that's 80000 Youzhou soldiers! It is also a large army in our Soochow. Is it that Cao Cao's troops are so large that they do not need such 80000 troops? "

Pang Tong shook his head and said, "it's because the number of troops is too large, so Cao's army, who came to attack Youzhou, can't control such a huge army! But the commander of the Cao army is indeed decisive! There are no other ways to deal with these troops that are not as effective as they are now. "

After a glance, all the generals were waiting for his explanation. Pang Tong continued: "there are several ways to solve the threat of this huge troop surrender. One is to send people to escort these troops back to Yanzhou and slowly train and digest them. Of course, there are many advantages in doing so. Now Cao Cao's troops are insufficient, and the 80000 troops can really solve Cao Cao's urgent need. However, this method has a disadvantage. After all, the troops and horses escorting 80000 troops are indispensable. It is doomed that Cao's army will give up the battle of Youzhou and come again next time. I'm afraid it will not be so easy to beat Gongsun Zan into such a mess as he is now. "

"The second way is to disarm and release these troops. Of course, the advantage is that it can spread the good name of Cao's army and be conducive to Cao Cao's rule in the future. However, it is a hidden danger that the 80000 Youzhou soldiers who have been trained regularly may attack Cao's army at any time. At that time, Cao's army will be attacked by Gongsun Zan in the city and the soldiers from outside the city. Of course, there is another way, that is to kill these soldiers on the spot, once and for all. But if you do this, the butcher's name will always be with Cao Cao. It is estimated that Cao Cao will not be able to stay in Youzhou. Not only that, but also his rule in other places will be affected. "

Speaking of this, Pang Tong took a complex look at the camp of the Cao army and said, "but the commander of the Cao army made the best decision decisively and sent the 80000 troops to attack the city. In this way, firstly, the main purpose of reducing the troops was achieved; secondly, the strength of Gongsun Zan's garrison was also consumed; thirdly, the garrison at the head of the city was also Youzhou soldiers, which could be said to be fellow townsmen. The killing between fellow townsmen could greatly reduce the morale of the garrison and hit Gong sun Zan's reputation in the Youzhou army. It's really a safe strategy

After listening to Pang Tong's explanation, all the generals gasped. According to Pang Tong's statement, the commander of Cao's army understood that it was 80000 lives to smash the 80000 troops on the city wall as cannon fodder!

"Shiyuan, what are we going to do next?" Cao Mao's tactics are not good at the way they are used to fighting. However, it's not wise for them to look at the bright side of the army.

Pang Tong smiles and says, "general Zu! Our task this time is to help Gong sun Zan, but we and Gong sun Zan are not allies. We don't need to help Gong sun Zan too much. Let the dog bite the dog between them. When they are almost finished, it's time for us to go out! "

Although some people can't stand Cao Jun's carelessness to human life, all of them are men fighting on the battlefield. None of them is a soft hearted role. Listening to Pang Tong's saying, they are all based on Sun Jian's business and obey Pang Tong's arrangement.

Pang Tong looked at the camp of the Cao army, and his mouth was slightly cocked. The commander of the Cao army was indeed a good opponent. If possible, he really wanted to fight him fairly. However, this battle can not be fair from the beginning, only waiting for the opportunity to fight again in the future.

In Cao's camp, Jia Xu seemed to feel something, turned his head and looked toward the southeast. He didn't know why. From the beginning, Jia Xu always had some restlessness in his mind, which was very rare for Jia Xu. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei on one side know Jia Xu's intention, but they are still worried when looking at Renqiu City. Guan Yu turns around and just wants to ask Jia Xu when he can start the general attack, but he sees Jia Xu staring at the other side in a daze.

"Sir! What's the matter? " Guan Yu is a little strange. After all, Jia Xu has never seen this expression before.

After hearing Guan Yu's question, Jia Xu turned back and pondered for a while and asked, "general Guan! Have scouts been sent around the city? "

Guan Yu nodded his head and replied, "yes! Yes! Didn't sir give orders last night? Early this morning, I sent several groups of scouts out. Up to now, I have not heard of any enemy attack. "

"Oh." Jia Xu lowered his head and thought again. Although Guan Yu said so, Jia Xu was more and more upset. Seeing Jia Xu, Guan Yu bowed his head and thought about something. Finally, Guan Yu couldn't help asking, "sir! You see, those troops have almost consumed. Is it time to start the general attack

After hearing Guan Yu's question, Jia Xu raised his head and looked at the battlefield. As Guan Yu said, under the urging of the Cao army behind him, the troops from Youzhou attacked the walls of Renqiu City. There are less than 30000 people left in the huge 80000 people, and 50000 people died under the city wall in more than one hour. Of course, these troops did not fail to achieve results. Now, some troops have already attacked the city head, and began to fight with the garrison on the head of the city."It's time!" Jia Xu stood up and temporarily cast off his uneasiness. He said to Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, "two generals! Next, we're going to have to work hard! Let's also ask the two generals to lead the army to attack the head of the city and take down Gongsun Zan! "

When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard this, they were overjoyed. At the same time, they clasped their fists at Jia Xu. Zhang Fei's snake spear never left his hand. Guan Yu also reached out to take the green dragon sword from his own soldier's hand. They turned around and walked towards the mount. After turning on the mount, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, with their legs clipped, killed the remaining Cao troops directly towards Renqiu City.

"Kill!" Guan Yu and Zhang Fei directly led the army to the front of the Cao troops who had been waving flags and shouting. Under the leadership of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, more than 100000 Cao troops finally began to hold their weapons and kill in the direction of the city wall.

At the head of the city, Gongsun fan, who had just killed an enemy, turned his head and looked out of the city. Suddenly, he was surprised and called to Gongsun Zan, who was still killing the enemy: "Lord! Look

Gongsun Zan cut the enemy soldier in front of him in two with one sword. Hearing Gongsun fan's voice, he also turned around to see that Cao's army, who had been in place for a long time, began to kill and run towards the city wall. Gongsun Zan could not help but smile bitterly. Although there were many enemies in front of him, he could still hold the whole city's garrison. Now there are so many fresh troops coming from the other side, how can Gongsun Zan resist it!

"My Lord! What to do? " Yan Gang also killed Gongsun Zan and helped him kill the enemy.

"What to do?" Gongsun Zan said with a bitter smile, "now that the city is besieged on all sides, it is impossible to escape from this Renqiu City. How can I know how to do it?"

Gongsun fan also stood by Gongsun Zan and said, "Lord! Today, even if we fight to death, we can't give up with them! "

"Yes! My Lord! Yan Gang is willing to advance and retreat with the public! " Yan Gang is also a ferocious face, while cutting and killing the enemy who climbed to the city head, while shouting. Although Yan Gang is not Gong sun Zan's family like Gongsun fan, he was promoted by Gong sun Zan. Gongsun Zan has the kindness to know his situation. Yan Gang will never betray Gongsun Zan in any case.

"Good!" Gongsun Zan is also aroused by the words of the two generals. Who is Gongsun Zan? That's the killing general in the frontier! Today in this small Renqiu City, fight with these Cao troops!

Although Gongsun Zan and other Youzhou generals have lofty aspirations, the reality is always cruel. With more and more soldiers boarding the city, there are fewer and fewer garrisons on the head of the city. Although Gongsun Zan had transferred all the garrisons of the city to the north gate, he was still defeated by the enemy, and at this time, the Cao army led by Guan Yu and Zhang Fei began to climb the wall.

Just as the front Cao army was about to climb up to the top of the city, an urgent cry of gold sounded behind the Cao army. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei suddenly turn their heads and look at Cao's barracks behind them, full of doubts.

"Second brother! What's going on? Why did it suddenly sound golden? " Zhang Fei looks at Guan Yu, puzzled.

Zhang Fei asked Guan Yu, but Guan Yu didn't understand why Mingjin was needed. He had to shake his head. How can they be reconciled to the withdrawal of their two brothers. Guan Yu immediately pointed to a sergeant and ordered, "go to the camp quickly and ask why you withdrew!" After the sergeant was ordered to leave, Guan Yu continued to take the army to attack Renqiu City, vowing to seize Gongsun Zan.

"General Guan! General Zhang However, before Guan Yu and Zhang Fei made a few steps forward, there were bursts of calls behind them. Guan Yu turned around and saw that it was the herald next to Jia Xu. Jia Xu had already guessed the temperament of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei and sent someone directly.

"General Guan! General Zhang! Lord Jia ordered the whole army to withdraw! " Although the herald came on horseback, he was still out of breath.

Guan Yu frowned, but it was hard to refute Jia Xu's face. He stopped with Zhang Fei and said to the herald, "why did you order Mingjin to withdraw? If we can't persuade our brothers, we will never withdraw! "
