A Journey to the Game World

Chapter 267
"My lord, although I don't know why you have this urge! But no matter what angle you consider it, it seems that I shouldn't stop you, lord!"

It's just that the current situation is not optimistic. If the general lets the lord leave rashly, it will have an impact on the overall situation!

Therefore, I would like to ask my lord to be more considerate, at least until the outer city is successfully captured.Lord, don't act rashly, lest it affect our army's formation! "

At this time, apart from the victory in this war, Ma Chao might not be able to find any other reason to suppress Du Huo.

Therefore, he had no choice but to use this war as an example, and the effect of it was indeed remarkable.

Ever since Ma Chao mentioned the war situation, Du Huo has really become more at ease!

And it's not surprising about this, although Du Huo wanted to exercise his ability.But that was just his idea after all, but the current battle has already taken shape, if it is because of such a temporary idea of ​​his that affects the current battle situation, it will definitely be worth the candle!
Therefore, no matter how much Du Huo wanted to go to the battlefield, he could only suppress the thoughts in his heart and forget all about it!
The battle in the distance was still exciting, and the outer defenses seemed particularly strong under Tai Shici's deployment.

Even if it is described as impenetrable, it is not an exaggeration!

However, although the city wall is strong, it is still unbearable after all, the continuous blows!

Although the city wall has no tendency to collapse, the dust and debris that fall with the blows have never stopped.

Although Taishi Ci's troops are abundant, they are not of much use. The current number of soldiers that can be accommodated on the city wall is only more than two thousand!

Besides these two thousand soldiers, even if Tai Shici had thousands of troops under his command, he would not be able to let those soldiers climb the city wall again!

So at the moment, most of Taishi Ci's troops are actually stationed in the city, and what they are currently doing is just trying their best to block the biggest gap in the city wall - the main city gate!

At the time of the siege, Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei's soldiers had already prepared a division of labor in advance.

When the war broke out, Jiang Wei led his soldiers directly to the city gate. His purpose of this trip was to attack the city gate and let the army enter the city.

Compared with Jiang Wei, Zhao Yun's attack method was more dangerous, because he still used the usual method before, building a ladder to climb up the city wall.

In fact, no matter how far the battle situation progresses, no matter how different the number of soldiers and the culture of the two sides are.

This kind of engineering method will never change. After all, in this world, there is no mechanical assistance, and there is no artillery support.

Therefore, if you want to successfully attack the city, you can only rely on your own flesh and blood to collide with the sword, gun, sword and halberd.

In fact, no matter what the war situation turns into.In the end, what we fought for was only three aspects: national strength, people's strength, and financial strength.

Now, on these three levels, Du Huo will overwhelm Sun Quan in any aspect.

So as soon as this battle started, the result was already very obvious, but Sun Quan refused to admit defeat, and he couldn't admit defeat either!

Therefore, the emergence of this war is both necessary and meaningless!

The capture of the outer city lasted about three hours.

The solid walls of Jianye City can be regarded as providing Sun Quan with the most solid protection.

Although this guarantee cannot last long, at least judging from the current situation, the result of incomplete failure will not be achieved overnight.

Three hours later, the soldiers who attacked the city were extremely exhausted. If they continue to bite the bullet and grit their teeth to attack the city at this time, the loss of equipment and casualties of soldiers will probably be raised to a new level. high.

Therefore, in order to ensure the stability of the follow-up battle, Du Huo took the lead in withdrawing the soldiers from the most stalemate situation between the two sides.

As for the withdrawal of Du Huo's army, Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this incident was far from over, in Sun Quan's view, it was already a matter of luck.

Because if it was based on his expectations, the defense of the outer city would not last for half a day at most!
Unexpectedly, due to the current retreat of Du Huo's army, the city that could have held on for half a day was abruptly delayed for a day!

However, although this is a good thing, Sun Quan can't laugh no matter what!

In fact, from the moment Du Huo's army entered the Wu territory, Sun Quan had already reached the point where he could not sleep or eat!

In fact, no matter it was before or after the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan's Soochow Wu had never gained much benefit from the disputes in the world.

Although in name, he and Du Huo Cao Cao share the world equally.But in fact, he is just living in a corner alone by relying on the natural danger of the Yangtze River!
However, now, Du Huo has directly penetrated Soochow's barrier, and the animals without the barrier are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

So, if Cao Pi refuses to send troops to help, what will be the end of Soochow?Sun Quan can be said to know better than anyone else!

However, although he knew that all the resistance was futile, he still refused to give up.

Because, he always had a glimmer of hope for Cao Pi. After all, when Cao Cao proclaimed himself emperor, Sun Quan had already bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister!

Even though it was only a title of vassal in name, in the eyes of the world, Sun Quan had already bowed his head to Cao Cao!

Therefore, now that Du Huo is conquering Soochow, he is actually challenging Sun Quan, but in name he is directly targeting Cao Pi!
Therefore, if Cao Pi feels that he can't hold his face and can't gain a foothold in front of the world, then he may send troops to assist Soochow and preserve Sun Quan's status!
However, regarding this consideration, it is nothing more than Sun Quan's wishful thinking!
In fact, Cao Pi's consideration was much more comprehensive than Sun Quan's.

Or, it can be said that Cao Pi was more realistic!
After all, Cao Pi is not Cao Cao, Cao Cao may still care about what the people of the world think!
But Cao Pi has already thrown the hearts of the people of the world aside!

Because in his vision, whether it is Sun Quan's Soochow territory, or the land of the two states under Du's command.

Those are all his hostile territories. Although he intends to recover them, as long as those territories are not recovered for a day, then the people there will not belong to the people of Wei after all!

Therefore, if you look at it from the perspective of his current thinking, then no matter how many people in Jiangdong died or were injured, all of this has nothing to do with Cao Pi!

Anyway, this war did not start because of him, so there is no need for him to be responsible for this war.

Therefore, it is precisely because of the evasion of this kind of thinking that Sun Quan's thinking of asking for help was also blocked!
But, it's a pity.At this time, Sun Quan was far away from Cao Pi Mountain, so he was absolutely unable to fathom Cao Pi's thoughts.

And precisely because of this reason, Sun Quan's final resistance caused Du Huo a lot of trouble.

In the afternoon, Du Huo's army withdrew from the battlefield, and Zhao Yun and Jiang Wei each led their own troops back to camp to rest.

This battle seemed to end in a stalemate.

However, Du Huo didn't care about the current ending.

After all, in Du Huo's view, this result was not a result at all.

At best, this was just a halftime break, the enemy was too stubborn, and Du Huo's army was too tired.

If they all dragged their bodies down and went to fight and fight, it would be considered as a victory in the end, and it would be a lose-lose situation for both sides!
Naturally, Du Huo would not adopt such a stupid move that injures the enemy by one thousand and damages himself by eight hundred!
Therefore, in the next few hours, the two sides fell into a truce!
It's just that although it was a truce, Sun Quan still had nowhere to escape.

Right now, Jianye City has been surrounded like an iron barrel by Du Huo's troops.

The current situation is somewhat similar to when Du Huo attacked Chengdu City!

It's just that Liu Zhang is not as good as Sun Quan, and Jianye is not as good as Chengdu, so looking at the overall situation, this battle is a hundred times more difficult than the original attack on Chengdu!
During the truce, Du Huo also had a brief discussion with the generals.

And the purpose of this discussion is nothing more than Du Huo, to solicit the opinions of the generals.

In fact, Du Huo's side already had an absolute advantage, if Du Huo was willing to throw away the soldiers' lives!

That was captured by Jianye City, so naturally it could be accomplished in one go.

However, capturing Jianye and occupying Soochow was not Du Huo's last battle after all.

If at this time Du Huo is desperate and uses all his troops to attack Jianye City!

Then in addition to winning, it will also plant a disaster for Du Huo himself.

As for this point, Du Huo is naturally able to think clearly, so when a general makes this suggestion, Du Huo will usually pretend to be puzzled on purpose under normal circumstances!
Those smart generals, seeing Du Huo's appearance, would naturally understand his intentions.

As for those confused generals, Du Huo naturally didn't need to waste words with him, because no matter how much he explained, they still wouldn't understand.

However, Du Huo will pay special attention to them in future appointments and dispatches.

As for how capable and high level they are, Duhuo can also get the results from these small things.

In fact, judging from the results of recruiting generals and training soldiers after such a long period of time.

Although some of the soldiers in Du Huo's army were outstanding, most of them were mediocre. As for this result, Du Huo could not help but admit it!
