Yuan Shu still adopted Yan Xiang’s suggestion.

However, it is not fully adopted.

Yuan Shu did not want to defend Yanzhou, but wanted to make a gesture to let Zhou Cheng know that he was determined to defend it.

Therefore, Yuan Shu personally led an army of 50,000 people and rushed to Xuzhou to assist Puyang at any time.

After Ji Ling received Yuan Shu's order, he also ordered to strictly guard Puyang.

……

It's still the same as attacking Chen Liu.

Before Zhou Cheng attacked Puyang, he built a high platform in the shortest possible time.

The high platform is enough to see clearly the situation at the top of the city.

Zhou Cheng, Jia Xu and others climbed to the high platform and saw that wooden logs, rolling stones, etc. had been prepared on the top of the city.

It's obvious.

Ji Ling had no intention of retreating.

Ji Ling was good at defending the city. Historically, Ji Ling once defended the city until Cao Cao ran out of food and gave up the attack on Shouchun.

At this time, Ji Ling learned from the past and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

Zhou Cheng said:"Attack once."

Following Zhou Cheng's order, the horn sounded.

Boom, boom, boom!!!

The frequency of beating of war drums is getting faster and faster

"kill!""kill!""kill!"

The soldiers of the Death Fighting Battalion were advancing forward.

The infantry was about 600 steps away from the city head.

At this time, the trebuchets began to throw stone bombs and fire oil cans.

Bang bang bang!!!

Some of the stone bullets hit City walls, some hit the city head, and some fell in front of the city wall

"Correct the landing point!"

The sergeants of the Shenji Battalion are observing and starting to make modifications based on experience.

On the side, the crane is loading.

The second round of launch!

Hundreds of trebuchets bombard the city wall at the same time. The effect is very shocking.

The city The Yuan army above has already suffered casualties.

Although the number of casualties is not large, this is just the beginning.

"Crossbowmen at the ready!"

"Well railing, push forward before rushing!"

"Prepare the siege ladder!"

"Fill the soil bags with the soil filling truck!"

"Go faster!"

"The Yongrui Battalion is ready to move forward!"

"The Marksman Battalion is ready to move forward!"

With the flag waving, the formation of thousands of troops began to press forward.

On the top of the city, Ji Ling looked at the enemy troops that were as densely packed as ants. He took a deep breath and said:"Archers, prepare!"

On the top of the city, Ji Ling has already erected Juma and Deer Antlers.

The purpose of setting up Juma and Deer Antlers is to further compress the space on the top of the city so that Zhou's soldiers cannot exert their full strength after ascending the city.

Moreover, there are Deer Antlers With He Juma blocking the way and Yuan Jun holding spears and crossbows at the rear, it was safer.

It is undeniable that Ji Ling defended the city with all his heart.

And the result of the siege was indeed not as good as Zhou Cheng expected..

Even though they attacked the city, they were still forced to retreat.

And it is impossible to fill up the moat today.

"Ming Jin withdraws his troops and attacks again tomorrow."

Zhou Cheng ordered to withdraw his troops. Today, he lost thousands of soldiers, and Ji Ling was about the same.

……

"Yuan Shu led the army to Xuzhou."

When Cao Cao was approaching Xiapi, he heard the news that Yuan Shu personally sent troops.

Cao Cao knew that Yuan Shu wanted to show his strength and let Zhou Cheng understand that Yuan Jun also had the strength to resist Zhou Cheng's march south.

In the battle for Puyang, the outcome is not important. , the important thing is the process.

If Ji Ling can hold Puyang for a month, or even longer, then Zhou Cheng will consider withdrawing his troops.

Because after the army left, the wealthy clans and thieves broke out, and the garrison camps and military camps were not as good as The expeditionary force is reliable.

Of course, Cao Cao cannot care too much now.

Because the victory or defeat of Puyang has nothing to do with him.

Cao Cao has offended Yuan Shu, and it is difficult for Liu Biao to tolerate it.

It is impossible for Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou, and Jingzhou Stay.

The first place Cao Cao can go now is to Jiaozhou.

But to go to Jiaozhou, he has to pass through Jingzhou. Will Liu Biao let him go?

Otherwise, he can go directly to the southeast and cross the river to Jiangdong.

It's just a refuge. Sun Ce?

Cao Cao would not do this.

Then, the only place to go is Yizhou.

Go to Yizhou to temporarily join Liu Zhang.

It is rumored that Liu Zhang is weak, but Yizhou is rich.

The aristocratic families, wealthy families who have fled to Yizhou in recent years, There are many scribes.

After arriving in Yizhou, they may be able to make a comeback.

Moreover, Liu Ye has already gone to Yizhou in advance to contact Liu Zhang.

Xun Yu and Xun You also believed that Liu Zhang would choose to accept Cao Cao in order to fight against Zhang Lu and Han Sui.

To At that time, if we can capture Hanzhong and go north to Liangzhou and Yongzhou, we can expect that

……

Liu Biao found Kuai Liang and Kuai Yue.

Before Yuan Shu sent troops, Yuan Shu sent a letter to Liu Biao, urging Liu Biao to send troops.

Liu Biao knew that Zhou Cheng was going south and posing an increasing threat to Jingzhou.

But Liu Biao did not have the confidence to defeat Zhou Cheng.

Liu Biao was also not optimistic about Yuan Shu and did not think he could win.

It's just that Yuan Shu personally wrote a letter to urge him. If he doesn't send troops, it won't be good.

However, more troops were added to Yanzhou.

Who should be sent?

There is no one whom Liu Biao trusts the most than Liu Pan.

However, Liu Pan had to guard Nanyang and not move lightly.

Send a clerk? Wenpin had more than enough to defend the city, but not enough to attack.

Moreover, Liu Biao still needs Wenpin to guard Jingbei and cannot move.

Finally, Liu Biao thought of Cai Mao.

Therefore, Liu Biao planned to use Cai Mao as his general, and then transfer Huang Zhong from Liu Pan's command to command 30,000 troops.
