Chapter 167

: The war begins

The next morning, Yuan Shao opened his eyes drowsyly and heard the sound of a thumping stone smashing the city wall. Yuan Shao laughed in his heart. Cao Cao was really stupid. He spent manpower and material resources so much that he had to work so hard all night, and no stone hurt the soldiers in Jizhou.

At this moment, Cao Cao looked at the city wall of Jizhou in the central army. The stones had exceeded half of the height of the city wall. It took about an hour to start the attack.

Cao Cao was secretly happy. Even if Tian Feng saw his playing style, it was too late. The overall situation was settled. Cao Cao happily turned around and returned to his big tent.

Yuan Shao looked at Tian Feng sleeping soundly. It seemed that he had really exhausted Tian Feng. It was time for Tian Feng to take a break. Yuan Shao thought to himself, if it weren't for Tian Feng, now I, Yuan Shao, would have to live under someone else's roof. It's really a poor family to see filial sons, and the country would be ruined and loyal ministers!

The city guardian looked out of the city on Jizhou City. There were too many stones on the ground, and Luo Duduluo came out of the mountain. At this moment, the city guardian felt something was wrong, but he couldn't see anything. He just felt that this way was either extremely stupid or something wonderful!

At this moment, the city guards became more and more worried, and finally couldn't help but run to the attic to pay homage to Yuan Shao.

After entering the attic, Yuan Shao said to the city guardian: "What are the movements of Cao's army?"

The city guard replied: "I still use a catapult to smash the city walls, but I am a little worried."

“Why?”

The city guard said, "The last general is familiar with military tactics, but I have never seen such a fighting style in the book. If it is not extremely stupid, then it has no intention. The drunkard's intention is not wine, lord!"

The conversation between the two woke Tian Feng up. Tian Feng opened his eyes and saw that Yuan Shao had woken up, and the city guard was kneeling down and replied. Tian Feng asked, "What is the intention of the drunkard? "

The city official said, "The last general thinks that Cao's army's approach should have no intention!"

Tian Feng's eyes immediately flashed away from the turbidity, and he looked at the city guardian brightly and said, "Take me to see it."

Tian Feng and Yuan Shao followed the city guard to the city wall and looked out. The city under the city in front of him was full of stones, and they had already reached the city wall. Suddenly, a small stone flew over and hit Tian Feng. Tian Feng fell to the ground with a sound. Yuan Shao ran to Tian Feng in panic. Just as he was about to help Tian Feng up, Tian Feng turned around on the ground and said, "Lord, I'm fine, I'm just hit by the stone in my chest, I can't die."

Tian Feng endured the pain and looked at the stone of the catapult and said, "Lord, Cao Jun's catapult should have moved forward twenty steps, and now he has thrown it here with small stones."

Tian Feng saw countless small stones throwing over again, Tian Feng shouted, "Master, be careful, and after hearing this, they squatted down. A stone larger than a fist flew over the top of their heads. Tian Feng squatted on the ground and looked gloomy, and then said to Yuan Shao with tears in his eyes: "Master, it's over, we are over."

Yuan Shao said: "Why did Tian Feng say this?"

Tian Feng said: "Lord, Cao's army is not smashing our city wall, but paving the way for our army. The stones outside are already the same height as our city wall. Now throwing small stones on it is to make it easier to walk, so as not to be bumpy and difficult to move."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao suddenly realized it and said angrily: "Cao Ah, traitor."

Tian Feng agreed in his heart that he had been defeated because the archers then covered the city and rushed lightly, the 200,000 troops in our city were all new recruits, and they could not stop the Cao army's army's long-term battle. It was difficult to escape now. Not only were the 200,000 troops besieged the city, but defenses might have been arranged at each intersection.

The situation is over, we can only die in Jizhou City.

Yuan Shao said to Tian Feng: "How should we meet the enemy?"

Tian Feng said regretfully: "It's over, our advantage is gone, and the width of the city wall is limited, so the garrison cannot hide at all. We have lost our advantage, and we are new recruits, so there is no possibility of winning."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao said, "Then our 200,000 army has a chance of winning."

Yuan Shao said: "Since Cao Cao is coming, there must be ambushing at the ferry on our way back, and we have no chance of escaping. Moreover, there is Cao Cao's territory all around. If we escape to Xuzhou, there will definitely be heavy troops waiting for us."

Yuan Shao said: "Then we can't wait to die here, either."

Yuan Shao grabbed Tian Feng, pulled Tian Feng down the city tower, and said to the 20,000 soldiers under the city: "Prepare to meet the enemy."

After a long time, Tian Feng came to his senses and looked at Yuan Shao walking with his arm. Tian Feng said, "Lord, we should gather Yan Liang and Wen Chou's 200,000 troops now, and then escape from Jizhou with one click."

Yuan Shao was relieved when he heard Tian Feng's speech. He let go of his hand and looked at Tian Feng and said, "How can we break through? If the 200,000 army came out of the city gate, it would be too long, and there would be no possibility of breaking through at all!"

Tian Feng said: "Lord, we can break through the road of Cao's army."

"What?"

Tian Feng said again: "Lord, I mean, we can let the army go from the city wall. When Cao's army rushes, we can go directly to the Cao army's road and gather 200,000 troops to pounce on it. In this way, the Cao army will be in chaos and we can break through the front. Cao Cao will definitely not expect that we will break through the front and catch him off guard."

Yuan Shao thought about it and said, "Okay, after taking us out, where should we escape?"

Tian Feng said: "After we rushed out of the encirclement of Cao's army, we asked the soldiers to escape to the southeastern mountain range. When we entered the mountain, we would run along the mountain range to Xuzhou."

After hearing this, Yuan Shao shouted directly: "Come here, send me my order, gather Yan Liangwen Chou's army to wait at the main gate."

Tian Feng said: "Lord, let all the soldiers bring hardware and rice with them. You must be quick. After we escape, we must let the soldiers have food, so we will have no food, and we will have no supplies at all."

Yuan Shao ordered what Tian Feng said.

Cao Cao saw that it was almost done, and the stones were piled up with small stones on the road. It should be no problem to step on it. Cao Cao ordered the archers to prepare. Tens of thousands of archers stepped forward and prepared to prepare. Cao Cao shouted: "Attack."

The archers pulled the bow and began to shoot arrows, while the light cavalry and assault infantry began to attack, and the city guards shouted, "Defense, the arrows are coming!"

All the soldiers picked up their shields to defend themselves. After a rain of arrows, the city guards shouted: "The enemy has attacked and encountered the enemy."

After a series of rain of arrows flew over and met the enemy. After that, Yan Liangwen chou arrived in front of the main gate. Tian Feng said: "We break through and we will break out of the encirclement of Cao's army in one battle. If we fail to fight, we will not be able to escape."

The soldiers of Cao's army had already climbed the pile of stones, but the stones were really unstable. Moreover, the horses were on it, and many of them fell down. The city guards ordered the start of shooting arrows, and the cavalry and infantry front army fell down!
