"In the end, the general was defeated and suffered heavy losses. Please punish me."
In the Yicheng government office, Guan Yu was sitting in the main seat, and no one from Wang Xuan came, so Gan Ning could only apologize to Guan Yu.
At this time, Guan Yu also had a headache and couldn't believe it. Judging from the title, Gan Ning was the same as him. The official positions in Shanghai and Lu were not subordinate to each other. Guan Yu just took advantage of Liu Bei's sworn brother, so that he could be half a head above the others. But Guan Yu had an arrogant temperament.
, has never been willing to talk about this. If Wang Xuan hadn't sent Gan Ning to his side this time, he would not have been qualified to deal with Gan Ning.
Why don't you deal with Gan Ning? It's not in line with the laws of the army, but Wang Xuan still doesn't care. It was Guan Yu who started this battle. He is really embarrassed to pass the blame to Wang Xuan.
Just when Guan Yu was in trouble, Liao Youyanxian Hua took the initiative to kneel down on one knee and said, "I would like to report to you, my subordinates feel that this is not a crime of war. All the troops led by General Gan are infantry. It is no wonder that Gan was defeated in the water battle."
General, please think again."
Huh~ Guan Yu, Gan Ning all breathed a sigh of relief.
Guan Yu narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded gently, "In this case, I will just record it. Xu Ganning has done meritorious service for his crime, and the unified liquidation will be carried out after the war."
Afterwards, Gan Ning directly expressed his intention to leave. After all, he was the commander-in-chief of the navy. The reason why he went to Shuzhong was because his hometown was there. Now that he has sent troops to the Central Plains, it is really unreasonable to confine him, the commander of the navy, here.
.
Guan Yu was really embarrassed and nodded in agreement without saying anything. Of course, Wang Xuan nodded in return.
Seeing Wang Xuan, Gan Ning said what he wanted, and Wang Xuan became happy, "I think you feel restrained, you are planning to find a place!"
"What's the matter? This is a loss at the hands of Cao Jun. Are you going to go back and blow the whistle to code people?"
"Hahaha, I was discovered by the imperial master, so I won't hide it anymore." Gan Ning nodded directly and admitted that he just wanted to go back and lead the navy to find a place. Damn it, is he easy to mess with?
Don’t let Boss Cao get upset this time. Maybe everyone will use this incident to laugh at him in the future.
"Okay, go ahead. I'll give you arbitrary power in this matter. You can do whatever you want. The provincial boss Cao always feels that he has more troops and wants to get involved everywhere." Wang Xuan received news again, and Cao Cao also
Cao Zhen was sent to lead an army of 30,000 people straight to Jiangxia, which made Wang Xuan very irritable.
"Hehe, I will definitely not disappoint the Imperial Master. I will give Boss Cao a hard blow in the waist."
The next day, Gan Ning left alone, and Guan Yu set off again with his army, defeating Zhonglu and Liqiu cities before arriving outside Xiangyang City. At this moment, four gangsters including Xiahou Dun, Xu Chu, Li Tong, and Cao Hong gathered in Xiangyang City.
There are masters who have been released outside the realm, and there are also 10,000 sailors outside the city.
With the 50,000 defenders of Xiangfan, both Xiahou Dun and others, as well as Huang Zu of Jingzhou and other aristocratic families, have 100% confidence in defending Xiangyang!
Sixty thousand versus thirty thousand, and they still occupy the strategic location of the city and the Han River. If they still don't have the confidence to hold on, then... Xiahou Dun and others might as well just die.
Outside Xiangyang City, on the north bank of the Han River, in Guan Yu's camp, Zhang Xiu also arrived with three thousand cavalry. However, in this siege, the cavalry was really not of much use. Instead, it was used to communicate intelligence from various places, encircle points for reinforcements, and fight.
What's good to start with.
In addition, Zhang Ren, who had finished his family affairs, also arrived. The senior brothers had not seen each other for more than ten years, and this meeting seemed very cordial.
Everyone else was in a good mood, but Guan Yu and Gan Ning were not in a good mood. He said that the final battle against Fancheng was hindered.
Two days ago...
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
Huge boulders were shot out by catapults and hit the top of the city of Fancheng, but apart from causing casualties to some of Cao's soldiers, they had no other effect. Fancheng's catapults were not to be outdone, and boulders were also blasted towards Guan Yu.
Relying on the advantage of the city head, the range was not compromised, and the two sides fought back and forth.
Guan Yu personally led his school swordsmen and began the first wave of siege. The father and son were the first to board the city and began to spread their cloud energy. As soon as they took their handsome postures, Xiahou Dun and Cao Hong rushed out and used their own cloud energy.
With his help, the offensive of Guan Yu and his son was immediately suppressed.
Dian Wei, Wu Anguo, and Pang De did not watch the excitement. Except for leaving one person to protect Wang Xuan's safety, the other two also rushed forward, but were stopped by Xu Chu and Li Tong... One side was suppressed by the cloud, and the other was
With the blessing of cloud energy, Xu Chu was able to turn his sword to close the door without fear of Dian Wei.
Four pairs of eight people captured each other and fought against each other. The Gangqi was so powerful that the others could not intervene at all. They occupied a large area at the top of the city. The rest of the area was indistinguishable between the soldiers of both sides. However, in the end, Cao Jun had the advantage of location and numbers, and the Han army
The army attacked fiercely for a whole morning but failed to gain a foothold on the city.
At the end of the fight, Guan Yu and others were exhausted and had to withdraw their troops.
In terms of military strength, the Han army is at a disadvantage after all. It is definitely not a problem to continue fighting like this. It is definitely Guan Yu who is in a bad mood. In fact, due to Wang Xuan's strategy of elite troops, overall, the Han army has never been as large as Cao's army.
It depends more on the quality of the soldiers and sophisticated equipment.
This gave the Han army no disadvantage when fighting in the field. After all, the number of soldiers who could be contacted at the same time in the field battle was equal, so the Han army suppressed Cao's army everywhere, but attacking the city was another matter.
Of course, this is also related to the fact that all warships of the Gansu and Ning naval forces were destroyed. There were naval forces between Xiangfan and Xiangfan to help communicate. No matter which side we attacked, the other side would have superior forces.
With the help of brothers Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu, Guan Yu launched another fierce attack. He still didn't believe it. He didn't have enough troops and experts came to help. He wanted to see how Cao Jun could resist the extra Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu.
Wang Xuan also wanted to see this.
"Pa", "pa", "pa", above the city, Zhang Ren waved his gun and fired three heavy armor-piercing wolf fang arrows in succession, and then the sounds of "swish", "swish" and "swish" sounded. Obviously
, the speed of these three arrows has exceeded the speed of sound.
Masters like Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu dare not ignore such heavy arrows. Even one shot will take away half of one's life.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Looking towards the direction where the arrows were shot, arrow towers were built behind the city wall. On each arrow tower were fifteen men holding iron bows.
Strong Archer, with just one glance, one can tell that both of them are at least at the pinnacle of the physical realm, and some of them are those who have become powerful by practicing Qi.
After all, he is Boss Cao, and he has the support of so many aristocratic families. Although there are not as many generals who can release Gang Qi as the Han army, but when it comes to practicing Qi to the Gang realm, they are really far more than the Han army. How far has the Han army developed?
Years, if it takes more than ten years, of course, Boss Cao can be completely crushed, but now, with hundreds of years of heritage of the family, it cannot be underestimated.
At this moment, there are more than twenty arrow towers behind this city wall, and there are fifteen archers on them. The targets are of course aimed at Wang Xuan's masters who can release their powerful energy.
Killing the enemy? I definitely haven’t thought about it, but it’s enough to make the martial arts warriors on Wang Xuan’s side fearful and unable to gain a foothold at the top of the city.
The reason why it didn't work last time was that Xiahou Dun and others were confident of resisting Guan Yu's four men. Now that there were two more, they naturally used them without any hesitation.
Zhang Ren and Zhang Xiu looked at each other, and naturally they were unwilling to be blocked like this and went back. It was not embarrassing enough to spread the news. Faced with the suppression of the cloud energy and being unable to steal, the two simply covered each other and jumped directly from the top of the city to the city.
Hit the arrow tower and kill him.
The spear in Zhang Ren's hand danced with afterimages, and in an instant he killed a dozen of Cao's soldiers around him, while Zhang Xiu stayed still, and under the protection of Zhang Ren, prepared to launch the big move of Hundred Birds Facing the Phoenix.
Cao's army was surrounding him from all directions, and more than a dozen armor-piercing heavy arrows were fired from the sky. Zhang Ren's eyes widened and he fired two blasts of energy to clear a small space around him. He quickly raised his gun and fired towards
Zhang Xiu's sharp arrow.
Each of these soldiers was carrying a half-man high-speed iron shield, and they were obviously specially prepared for the masters of releasing Gang Qi. A blast of Gang Qi only killed and injured more than 20 people, which was obviously not what Zhang Ren expected.
Seeing Cao's army swarming up again, Zhang Xiu was finally ready. With a wave of his spear, the huge fire phoenix, which was more than 100 meters tall, suddenly rushed forward.
