Chapter three hundred and ninety-six the army suppresses the city
Seeing that most of the militiamen he had mobilized were wiped out by Cao Jun's momentum before the battle began, Chen Gong's face instantly turned livid. Although he knew in his heart that this battle would not be easy, he did not expect it.
As soon as this started, the difficulty soared to this level. ¤八¤八¤Read¤书,☆←o
"Report~"
Chen Gong's face was as dark as water. Just when he was about to respond, a captain rushed over and shouted with a panic look on his face: "Military advisor, Cao Jun general Li Dian appeared at the north gate, and Yue Jin appeared at the east gate.
Xia Houshang appeared at the west gate and is now leading his elite troops to storm the city gate. The brothers over there can hardly hold on any longer!"
Chen Gong looked solemn, looking at the 45,000 siege troops outside the South Gate City, and instantly understood what Cao Cao meant. Life or death was at stake at this moment. Cao Cao obviously wanted to take advantage of the large number of troops regardless of casualties.
After defeating the Puyang defenders, his main attack direction must be the south gate, which has the flattest and widest terrain. As for the other three gates, it is presumably to contain Chen Gong's energy and the power of the city as much as possible.
Thinking of this, Chen Gong glanced at the strong civilians who had collapsed on the ground under the pressure of tens of thousands of Cao's troops outside the city, with almost no effect. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. He couldn't do anything here, but it was not the same elsewhere.
He waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice, "Send the order, all the strong civilians at the south gate and the government soldiers prepared in the city should go to the east, north, and west."
Guard the city at the three gates. Tell Hou Cheng, Song Xian, and Cheng Lian that the main force of Cao's army is at the south gate. The other three gates are just secondary attack points. As long as they all defend according to a certain arrangement, Cao's army will never be able to attack.
, if they can’t even do this, then let them go and plead guilty to the Lord when he comes back!”
"No!" The captain and orderly soldiers who were waiting nodded quickly, turned around and left quickly.→八→八**Reading, ↓o≥
After pondering for a moment, Chen Gong showed a ruthless look on his face and said sternly: "Cao Xing, please leave the matter of wolf riding alone for now. I know you are good at shooting. You can follow behind me in a while. As long as Cao Jun is close to the city,
In front of you, whoever the command flag in someone's hand is pointing at, you will shoot at someone. If you kill each person, you will be rewarded with a hundred gold. It will be recorded as a great achievement!"
"No!" Cao Xing, who had been following Chen Gong, flashed a hint of excitement on his face. He naturally understood what Chen Gong meant. Out of confidence in his archery ability, he lowered his head and looked at the leading generals of Cao's army outside the city.
When he was talking to the captain, his eyes unnaturally shone with gold, his tongue curled up slightly, and he murmured with a smile: "It's all good silver, no no, it's gold paper."
, it’s a credit! Hehe!”
In fact, Chen Gong's previous order for him to assemble four thousand wolf cavalry to prepare for an attack made Cao Xing very uneasy. Compared to his absolute confidence in his own shooting skills, Cao Xing felt uneasy about commanding his own cavalry to charge and fight.
But he didn't have much confidence anymore. The reason why he was able to charge and fight with the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and gain the reputation of an eight-strong general was actually due to his extremely metaphysical archery skills.
Whenever charging, Lu Bu must be at the forefront of the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. With Lu Bu's strength, he not only bears the strongest attack in every war, but also withstands and defends most of the enemy's attacks. This puts pressure on the generals on his side.
It was greatly reduced, and Cao Xing took advantage of this bonus to be silent in every battle.
He hid aside breathlessly, shooting arrows and picking up leaks. In one battle, he used his top-notch archery skills to kill more than ten people, which was a great achievement. If he was lucky, his archery skills would be triggered.
In metaphysics, if you directly kill a big shot and kill him, the credit you get will be enough to last him a long time.
In short, Chen Gong's changes in his arrangements at this time instantly brought Cao Xing back to the rhythm that he was very familiar with and liked. Although this time there was no Lu Bu in front of him, but relying on the city wall, Cao Xing
In my heart, I was not afraid, and muttered secretly, "Nothing is better than leading the troops out to charge and fight!"
Chen Gong actually didn't care about the attitude shown by Cao Xing around him, nor did he think there was anything wrong with using power and wealth to stimulate his subordinates. As long as Cao Xing could meet his requirements in the end, some gold and merit would be the rewards he deserved.
After the arrangements were made, Chen Gong lowered his head and looked at the Cao army approaching step by step. In addition to the more than 5,000 elite soldiers and horses stationed around Cao Cao and the main banner, there were four square formations left. According to this scale and the terrain of the south gate,
, I'm afraid these 40,000 people have to go into battle at the same time. Cao Cao and Xi Zhicai obviously have the idea of overwhelming others with force and taking Puyang in one fell swoop at any cost.
"Tap! Tread! Tread!"
Cao Jun approached step by step at an extremely slow speed. Above the sky, Cao Jun's condensed military momentum rolled over and crushed in the sky like a stormy sea. With the force of thunder, it moved towards the city in one wave after another.
Lu Bu's army pressed down.
"Do you want to use your military force to break the city?" Chen Gong frowned as he looked down at the city. Cao Jun did not choose to charge quickly, but instead advanced towards the city at an extremely slow speed. Cao Jun's plan could not be concealed from him.
, he turned his head slightly and figured it out. After all, Cao Cao, Xi Zhicai and others had not never used this kind of siege method, which was the most suitable, traditional and royal method when the troops were superior.
To suppress them with force, if placed in the historical context of the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it would be nothing more than a military strategist’s statement. However, placed in the context of this late Eastern Han Dynasty, when the overall power level has been strengthened by special forces, it would be the Eight Classics that can be used to determine victory or defeat.
The method of using military force to suppress people is not only to suppress the personal force of generals and the spiritual talents of counselors, but also to use the concentrated military force of the army to create powerful spiritual and physical strength for the entire enemy soldiers.
Pressure, thereby fundamentally reducing the enemy's combat effectiveness and strengthening one's own chances of victory. However, generally speaking, although military pressure is very strong, it is more aimed at the energy released by generals and the spiritual power released by counselors.
Generally speaking, as for the overall troops and horses, it generally depends on the strength of both sides, the eliteness of the soldiers and generals, the ability of the generals to command the troops, and the degree of compatibility and tacit understanding with the troops and horses they command, and then the soldiers.
Strengthening of formations and talents.
Of course, if one can reach the level and tacit understanding of Gao Shun and his men, the number of people is actually not important anymore. Although eight hundred versus eighty thousand people cannot win, with the blessing of the military soul, the momentum is absolutely unbreakable.
.In short, all is said and done, no matter it is
The general's personal martial arts, the outward expression of Gangqi. Or the counselor's natural ability, mental pressure, or military strength, military soul, formation, military formation, etc. There is absolutely no mention of who restrains whom, or a level competition.
, the principle is that if you are high, you win, if I am low, I lose.
Who is stronger and who is weaker on both sides? If Ming Dao really fights, the result will naturally appear... 11
