In Changyi City, Cao Cao has got the news of the loss of Suiyang, which shocked everyone. Two days ago, he sent troops to report that he would lead more than 20000 troops to support Qiaojun. As a result, within two days, not only 20000 troops were destroyed, but also Suiyang, the hospital of Liangjun, was lost.

As soon as Suiyang was lost, the state of Liang was basically gone. You know, before Jia Kui sent out his troops, he had already transferred 2000 soldiers from each city. Now there are five counties with only 1000 garrison troops. In front of tens of thousands of troops, there are no soldiers.

Sitting on the throne, Cao Cao looked at all the people in the hall and said in a low voice, "all of you, tell me what to do? Do you want to wait for a while or send troops to Dingtao to attack the army of Huangfu Chaobo? "

"My Lord, you must not send troops to attack the East army at this time. The battle of Dingtao has only started for three days. The East army has not lost its vigour. It is not time for our army to send troops." Sima Yi immediately objected;

Xun Yu also nodded to agree with his opinion. In fact, Cao Cao also knew that this was not the best time to send troops, but he felt a little sick now. The reason why Sima Yi objected was that the battle of Dingtao had just begun and the spirit of the eastern army had not been lost. Another reason was that the troops mobilized by other counties had not yet arrived in Changyi.

In Sima Yi's view, even if we send troops to Dingtao, we must arrange the defense of Changyi. If Cao Cao's tens of thousands of Chinese troops send troops to Dingtao, the defense of Changyi will be empty. At least 20000 troops should be left in Changyi. Otherwise, Changyi will lose, which will be a huge blow to Cao Cao Cao's morale.

Seeing that no one supported sending troops now, Cao Cao changed the topic: "what's the situation of the army supporting Qingzhou now?"

"The army is still in the process of assembly. It is estimated that it will take another three to five days to complete the assembly." A nearby general replied;

"Lord," Xun Yu said in a side way, "in fact, you don't have to wait for the troops to set out after the assembly. You can make all the troops go directly to the Dongping Mausoleum of Jinan state, and every 10000 people will go directly to the Qingzhou battlefield. In this way, you can also give the East army the feeling that our army's reinforcements are constantly coming."

As soon as Cao Cao heard this, he did, so he immediately ordered it to be carried out.

The final result of the discussion was still to hold still, because the distance between Changyi and Dingtao was not far. If the army marched quickly, it was only two days' journey. Moreover, every day there are war reports coming from Dingtao. At present, the main war has just begun, and it is far from the time when we need reinforcements.

The battle is still going on in Dingtao city. On the sixth day after the battle, the Dugu brothers finally appear in the account of Huangfu Chaobo. They are here to report the progress of the tunnel.

"Lord, the tunnel is within a hundred paces of the city wall. From tomorrow on, the army must strengthen its attack on the city, so as to cover up the sound of underground excavation. Although it's not sure whether the city has detected any signs of tunnel excavation attack, it's for the sake of safety. It's better to use the siege to make a huge sound Enough to hide the sound of the excavation. " Dugu Ba asked Huangfu Chaobo;

Huangfu Chaobo also understood what he meant. Thousands of people were moving underground. Although they had already lined up to pass the earth braces according to his method, it was inevitable that they would make a big noise. If Ren Jun really arranged the earth listening things, it would really be a hard attack. Although up to now, there has been no precedent of tunnel attack in the game, it has existed in ancient times. Huangfu Chaobo did not dare to guarantee that Cao Cao's army or Ren Jun knew this. He made preparations in advance. It is not so difficult to install several large urn beside the city wall.

However, before that, Huangfu Chaobo had to confirm how long it would take for the tunnel to get through to the wall.

"How long will it take to get into the city?"

Dugu Ba replied positively: "two days and one night is enough. If it goes well, it may not take so long!"

"No, I'll give you two nights. Two days later in the morning, the army launched a fierce attack on Dingtao and broke the city in one fell swoop!" Huangfu Chaobo shook his head and said;

with that, Huangfu Chaobo turned his head and looked at Zhang Ying, Huang Wudi and other generals, and said: "you generals, from tomorrow on, the army will attack the city with all its strength. Of course, the most elite army must be ready for the general. In two days, the city will be broken!"

"The end will take orders!" All the generals got up together and responded;

early the next morning, Ren Jun was awakened by the sound of the trumpet and drum outside the city. He turned over and got up from his bed. Just as he was about to inquire, he heard the personal guard report in a hurry: "Taishou, the East army outside the city has begun to attack the city on a large scale!"

"Attack the city on a large scale? Are you sure it's not a feint like the last few days? " Ren Jun frowned and asked;

"General Li of the east city wall, General Wang of the west city wall and General Chen of the north city wall have all sent people to report to us. They are sure they are not feigning."

"Come on, give Ben the armor and climb the city!" Ren Jun orders out loud;

a few bodyguards will come in at once, put on the armor for Ren Jun, and soon a group of people will appear on the north wall.

As soon as he got to the top of the city, Ren Jun saw that the northern army was rushing towards the city wall like a tide. It seemed that he was really beginning to attack the city on a large scale.But why did the expeditionary army suddenly attack the city on a large scale, contrary to the usual attitude of slow attack in recent days. All of a sudden, Ren Jun thought of a question. Did the eastern expeditionary army already know the news that XiaHouYuan's troops were attacking Beihai on a large scale? Because the river could not sail, he was eager to get support for Beihai from the land. Perhaps Huangfu Chaobo didn't expect to get support for Beihai, but he had the purpose of encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao.

Thinking of this, Ren Jun's eyes brighten. So far, he still has 10000 hard battalions in his hands. If the eastern army really can't wait to capture Dingtao, I believe there will be a big surprise for them.

At present, the defense of Dingtao city is 10000 prefectures and soldiers. In addition to 1000 soldiers in the south wall, 3000 soldiers in each of the other three walls. In addition, 5000 soldiers of Shanyang army are deployed in the North City, 1500 soldiers in each of the East and west walls. Ren Jun's 5000 soldiers are responsible for the four walls. The ten thousand strong camp was still hidden in the city's barracks.

On the north side, Chen Wu, the commander of Shanyang army, was in charge of the four walls. On the east side, Li Zong, the commander of Jiyin County, and Wang Shi, the deputy commander of Jiyin County, were in charge of the four walls. On the south side, because it was too close to Jishui, it was impossible to deploy troops. Therefore, the eastern army was not afraid to attack from here. It only deployed 1000 soldiers, including a captain The army is unified.
