The Three Kingdoms: Summoned generals at the beginning, shocking Cao Cao

Chapter 57 Han Xin detours, Cao Jun is upset!
The sound of hitting the city gate continued.

"Keep rushing!"

At this time, Cao Cao saw that soldiers had rushed up the city wall, so he planned to pursue Chen Sheng and rushed into Jian'an City in one breath.

The messenger immediately gave an order, and the armies of the princes who attacked Jian'an City from all directions received the order and began to increase their numbers without hesitation.

The sound of war drums resounded everywhere!

This kind of rush continued from morning to night, but Cao Cao's army still failed to take Jian'an City, and the heavy rain gradually stopped.

"Bang bang bang!!"

Some of the musketeers on the wall began to pick up their muskets and shoot.

The successive falls to the ground gradually weakened the morale of Cao's army, and some of them began to flee without fighting!
The main reason is that they don't know how they died, which makes them fearful!

"Prime Minister, the heavy rain has stopped. Under the concentrated offensive, both of us have been injured. At this time, the rain has stopped and the opponent's firearms have a chance to play again. I look at the weather. In one or two hours, the rain will start again. Get off, it won't be too late to attack when the time comes!" A counselor stepped forward and said.

Cao Cao looked up at the gloomy weather, stood up and looked not far away, nodded slightly and said: "That's the only way, Jian'an City can't be taken in one go!"

"Send the order down!"

"withdraw!"

The messengers below began to send orders, and the surrounding army began to retreat in full swing.

"Prepare the cannon!"

Seeing Cao Jun start to retreat, Bai Qi breathed a sigh of relief. Although the poor should not chase after them, they still have to suffer.

While speaking, the soldiers began to move the shells in the tower, and the generals in other directions naturally gave such orders one after another.

"Bang bang bang!!"

In an instant, guns fired from all sides, with some musket sounds mixed in.

The retreating Cao army was defeated by the artillery. At this time, due to the bombardment of the artillery, it was even more confused and retreated like crazy.

"Hahaha……"

Although the soldiers on the top of the city were also in a state of embarrassment, they couldn't help laughing when they saw Cao Jun's embarrassment.

Laughter one after another, for a long time without a break!
At this time, Han Xin was still galloping.

"drive!"

"drive!"

"hiss--"

When the sweaty horse under his crotch was running wildly, he suddenly pulled the reins and stopped.

"General, what's the matter?" A general stepped forward and asked.

"The spies we sent haven't come back to report for a long time!" Han Xin looked at the distance and frowned.

"This..." The general glanced back, his lieutenant shook his head again and again, and he immediately replied with certainty: "General Qi, the three spies really haven't replied for a long time!"

Han Xin immediately raised his finger and pointed to the distance, "Did you see the valley in the distance?"

The general turned his gaze and saw a gourd mouth.

"General, you mean..." the general hesitated.

"Our spies were probably ambushed there, and the other side's army would definitely set up an ambush on the way to support Jian'an City, so as to prevent their own army from being flanked, and the valley in the distance is really the best place for an ambush, allowing us to There is no return! If there are too many of us, we can directly destroy the entrance, so that we have to take a detour!" Han Xin said in a deep voice.

The general was very convinced by Han Xin's words, clasped his fists and said, "What does the general mean?"

"Take the map!" Han Xin got off his horse and began to observe the map with a group of generals.

"There are two places we must pass when heading to Jian'an for support. In addition to the distant valley we are going to, there is also a pass in the north that is extremely easy to ambush!"

"A few days ago, when the flames of war ignited, the lord must lead the army southward, and they must also pass through that valley. I think we might as well take a detour to flank them, so that it will be convenient for the lord and them to pass by then!"

"Only by going to Jian'an City together with the lord's army, can we solve the predicament of Jian'an City. It may take some time for us to pass by here now!"

Han Xin pointed at the map and said.

"What the general said is very true! Please give the general an order!" All the generals clasped their fists together.

Han Xin nodded, "Send someone to inform the 2 troops behind to join us in the north. We will go straight to the northern pass, take this place, and then join the Lord to help build Ancheng together!"

"The last will obey!"

The generals each started their own arrangement.

On Jian'an City, all the soldiers began to rest and barbecue.

Generally, it would be good if the soldiers on Cao Cao's side had enough to eat, but on Liu Bian's side, after several years of recuperation, broiler chickens could be said to be in droves, which usually satisfied the soldiers' meat-eating possibilities as much as possible.

At this time, the soldiers were tired all day, so of course they slaughtered pigs and sheep to make them full so that they could meet the next battle.

During this period, the fragrance of meat spread to the surrounding armies of princes led by Cao Cao.

"Ah? What a meaty smell! I haven't smelled it for many years, let alone eaten it!"

"The smell seems to be coming from Jian'an City!"

"It should be the generals in the city feasting and drinking, right?"

"It must be!"

"Fart, haven't you heard? The lord over there, Liu Bian, pursues a policy of recuperating with the people. In recent years, the people have eaten meat every year!" A soldier in Sun Ce's army ran away from the army due to artillery fire They dispersed, and finally came to Cao Cao's barracks.

When he heard that only generals could eat meat, he couldn't help laughing, and told what he had heard.

"Is it true? The common people eat meat together? Are you kidding? Ordinary people are good enough to eat, and eat meat? Hahaha..." Cao Cao's army came from the north, and the conditions were difficult, so naturally he didn't take it seriously.

The soldier was speechless: "Our family is in Kuaiji. Later, we fled to Yuzhang County with the Governor Zhou. Later, I met a relative of mine who was looking for his wife and children near Yuzhang. We chatted for a long time!"

"It's just what he said alone. Who knows if it's true?" Some soldiers still didn't believe it and turned to ask others, "You think so?"

The surrounding soldiers smelled the smell of meat, swallowed their saliva, and nodded repeatedly. After all, it was sour.

If you can't eat it yourself, you don't want to admit that others can eat it!
What's more, you haven't seen it with your own eyes?

"I am stationed in Xin'an. How could I not be clear? There were some refugees nearby who rushed to Kuaiji, one or two. The problem was that they came in groups. Later, Liu Bian captured Lujiang City and released part of Lujiang River. The soldiers in the city gave them food rations to go back. Soon after, many people from the territory of the old thief Yuan Shu came to seek refuge with Liu Bian. You are not far away, so you must have heard some rumors, right? Generally, The princes gave their troops not enough food to eat, but they turned around and released the captured soldiers and gave them food rations to go home. Do you think they have a lot of food?" The soldiers from Sun Ce's army were angry. continued.
