Chapter 3114 up to half a month
In this war against Cao Cao, the most dazzling performer was Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was responsible for the Jin army's attack in the middle direction. And since the war began, the Chinese army gave Zhao Yun a lot of support, with the help of the Thunderbolt Chariot.
Cao's army was suppressed by Zhao Yun and retreated steadily. The arrival of ballistas, elephant soldiers, and rattan armor soldiers directly eliminated Cao's army from this battle.
The failure of Cao Jun made Zhao Yun famous. Even now when Cao Jun's generals mention Zhao Yun's name, they can't hide the fear in their expressions. The main reason is that Zhao Yun gave them too much shock in this battle, regardless of his personal martial arts.
His performance in commanding large armies in combat is impeccable. When fighting against such a general, one naturally needs to be more cautious.
"Tell me about the situation among the strategists and generals. Your Majesty currently attaches great importance to Wancheng. If you seize Wancheng as soon as possible, it will be of great help to your Majesty's attack on Xudu." Zhao Yundao said.
Pang Tong nodded slightly. After capturing Wancheng, it was of great significance. Wancheng was the last city that Cao Jun held in Jingzhou. Taking this city from Cao Jun's hands meant that Cao Cao's rule in Jingzhou was completely over.
Otherwise, Wancheng will always be under Cao Cao's control, which will make it even more inconvenient for the army's next actions. The best result is that after breaking through the city, all the defenders in the city can be annihilated. In this case, it will bring greater disaster to Cao Cao.
Shocking.
And after such shocking news reached Xudu one after another, it must have made Xudu's civil servants and military officers even more panicked.
The victory boosted the fighting spirit of the Jin army outside Wancheng, especially the soldiers who failed to reach the decisive battlefield and were even more eager to conquer Wancheng.
"The number of our army currently exceeds 40,000, and although Cao Bureau in the city has more than 20,000 people, you dare not leave the city easily under such circumstances. The offensive method adopted by our army is to break through Jiangling
As long as we can build a road leading to the city wall outside the city, we can successfully capture Wancheng from Cao Jun. Although the defensive force in the city is strong, our army is not comparable to Cao Jun in terms of strength.
, when the two are fighting, it is our soldiers who occupy a favorable situation." Pang Tong said slowly.
"I wonder how long it will take to build a road outside the city that leads directly to the city?" Guo Jia asked.
"At most half a month." Pang Tong said.
After Zhao Yun and others led the troops and left, Pang Tong did not relax. Besides, there were a lot of troops in the city at that time. When building a road outside the city, we must be more cautious, otherwise it would be dangerous if the defenders opened the city gate and made a surprise attack.
Already.
When the roads outside the city gradually blocked the city gate, it was impossible for the defenders to come out from the front gate of the Jin army. In this case, it would be much easier to defend against the enemy's surprise attack out of the city.
"Okay, half a month later, it's time to conquer Wancheng. After taking Wancheng into our hands, Cao's army will be shaken again." Zhao Yun laughed.
"Could it be that Cao's army has suffered few shocks recently?" Pang Tong said with a smile.
The generals in the tent burst out laughing after hearing this. During the confrontation with Cao's army, the Jin army had an absolute advantage. Even in the decisive battle between the three armies, the Jin army was still at a disadvantage in terms of numbers.
The enemy's victory was a great encouragement to the soldiers in the army.
So what if Wancheng's defenders numbered more than 20,000 people? Once the roads outside the city were constructed, the rest of the matter would be much simpler.
The defenders of Wancheng were panic-stricken. The news of Cao's army's defeat shocked the generals. The failure demoralized Cao's army. This was originally a normal thing. As long as there is a battle, there will definitely be a failure. Any
There is no guarantee that one can remain undefeated in a battle.
The fact of the failure gave Cao's army in Wancheng more worries when they fought against the Jin army. They began to doubt the army. They even doubted whether the army could win under this enemy attack.
When the soldiers in the army have such thoughts, it is the most disadvantageous to the soldiers in the army. The doubts in their hearts will make their morale even lower when fighting the enemy.
Compared with the low mood of Wancheng's defenders, the Jin army outside the city has high fighting spirit. They are waiting for the road construction outside the city to be completed before they can attack the city wall. Nothing can make their blood boil more than this.
Already.
Victory is what any army longs for. If the soldiers in the army are on the battlefield, if they are accompanied by victory, they will have an unimaginable desire for fighting in battles. And the soldiers in the army can fight in the battlefield.
The strength has been improved unknowingly. Once such an army forms a firm belief, it will show shocking strength when facing the enemy.
The current Jin army has experienced victory after battle, and they will be even more eager for victory. What the defenders of Wancheng desire most is to survive this battle. Judging from past battles,
Cao Jun indeed had a lot of problems if he wanted to win.
Cheng Yu and Xia Houyuan will not give up easily, because they are important figures under Cao Cao. It can be said that they and Cao Cao are both prosperous and devastated. No matter what thoughts the soldiers in the army have when the enemy attacks the city, in
In this battle, victory is crucial.
Only victory can mobilize the courage of the army's officers and soldiers to fight against the enemy.
Yu Jin led the Xuzhou Army to join the Jin army. After the news of the fall of Pengcheng reached Wancheng, Xiahou Yuan had many doubts about the Xuzhou Army in the city. At first, the Xuzhou Army sent an additional 10,000 troops to support Wancheng. If these armies
Betrayal at a critical moment would bring turmoil to the defenders of Wancheng. This kind of thing is possible. When the matter is not completely determined, what must be done is to be cautious.
Especially the commander-in-chief of the army must maintain absolute caution at this time. Any negligence at this time may have fatal consequences.
The Xuzhou Army who came to support was also aggrieved. What relationship did Yu Jin surrender to the Jin army? However, if possible, they would definitely choose to surrender without hesitation.
Of course, these are just the thoughts of ordinary soldiers. After all, the most seriously injured in a battle must be ordinary soldiers. They charge at the front during the battle, withstand the enemy's attack, and are always worried about their own safety.
