After patrolling the city, Cao Cao already had many ways to break through Wan City. At least, it would not be a problem for a month.
Xi Zhi, who had come with them, had just passed winter. Under the treatment of Zhang Zhongjing and Hua Tuo, he had temporarily quit drinking and was much better.
Now, he had become the military advisor.
He also had many ways to break through without killing too many soldiers.
"It would be great if Wan City could surrender. Zhang Ji just died, and although Zhang Xiu's reputation is great, he lacks the power to intimidate others.”
Cao Cao immediately agreed." That's right. Advisor Jun's vision is unique and not inferior to Yixuan's.”
Xi Zhicai immediately bowed slightly, a smile on his face.
"Zhang Xiu, this kid, he's not old. I heard that he's outstanding in martial arts? There was also the title of Northern Spear King, but in reality, he was only fighting with mountain bandits and bandits. There was nothing to worry about.”
Cao Cao coldly snorted, feeling that he was in the bag.
Xi Zhicai continued," I feel that killing the enemy is not important. They have just been defeated and Zhang Ji has just died. This is a time of turmoil. If we can intimidate Zhang Xiu now, we can recruit them to surrender. This army came here starving. If they don't want to starve again, they might succeed."”
Zhang Liao, Cao Hong, and the other generals agreed with his words.
"If we can get them to surrender, our military strength will increase by quite a bit.”
Cao Cao chuckled." Of course. Everyone, follow me to challenge him tomorrow. If we can get Zhang Xiu to open the door and fight, we can get Dian Wei to take down his prestige. If we can beat him until he is invincible, even if Zhang Xiu has a backbone, his soldiers will naturally be disloyal.”
……
At this moment, Xu Zhen's supply camp had sent out 200 people to escort the grain. They set up a grain station every 20 miles along Xuchang. They used local materials to build shacks and store the grain, forming a grain transport line.
This way, they could prevent sneak attacks and bandits from looting.
Although there weren't any mountain bandits in Xuchang.
His elite team had already arrived at the north of Wan City, only a mountain away from Cao Cao.
Similarly, Xu Zhen, Guo Jia, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong had gone to a high place to observe the situation in Wan City.
The arrangement of the soldiers inside was not so neat and seemed rather loose.
Xu Zhen was deeply touched by this. He had seen many soldiers.
Among them, the most memorable one was the 5,000 soldiers that Liu Bei had brought with him. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led them, and Zhao Yun was a borrowed general. Other than that, all the soldiers had a sense of worship towards Liu Bei.
He could do it as if he was controlling his arms and fingers, risking his life.
Next was Cao Cao's army, Xiahou Dun's army. As long as Xiahou Dun raised his spear and waved his arm, no one would make a move. A pin drop could be heard, and there was silence. Every soldier's eyes were filled with killing intent.
Such a soldier, just based on his aura alone, could suppress one. How could his combat strength not be strong?
As for Xu Zhen's 500 elite soldiers, they were mostly arrogant and fearless. After all, they were trained to fight in small areas. They were not good at charging into the formation.
Now that he had improved his riding and archery skills, his archery skills were more accurate and powerful. With the lead of the riding and archery general, Huang Zhong, the combat power he could unleash was naturally not low.
However, the army in Wan City was still very loose.
Xu Zhen thought for a moment and understood.
"Zhang Xiu is Zhang Ji's son, and Zhang Ji has just died. He took over this army not too long ago and hasn't had time to train it yet, so the combat strength of this army isn't very strong.”
"If that's the case, why did Lord Xu come here?" Guo Jia asked curiously. I feel that with Cao Gong's abilities, he should be able to take down the city in less than half a month.”
Xu Zhen shook his head.”
"If I say Wan City will surrender, do you believe me?”
Guo Jia was stunned. He had thought about surrendering. After all, Zhang Xiu was like a stray dog. There was Cao Cao in the north and Liu Biao in the south. If they fought, it would be a desperate struggle. They would be eliminated sooner or later. There was nowhere to run.
However, this person's thoughts were the hardest to guess. Who could say for sure?
"I believe you."
But he still smiled bitterly and said yes.
Judging from the time he spent with Lord Xu, anything this person said could come true.
"Our military equipment, armor, and spears are all refined and refined repeatedly. The materials used are also the best in the Great Han Dynasty. In the supply camp, there are even more elite soldiers and well-trained generals.”
Guo Jia repeated a few sentences and then said,"Now, it can be said that there's no mistake.”
Xu Zhen sighed." That's why I'm here.”
"What are you worried about?”Guo Jia couldn't understand even in his dreams.
He had been thinking about it for the past few days, to the point where he couldn't sleep at night. This was because, no matter how he thought about it, Guo Jia was certain that he would win this case in Wan City.
However, every time Lord Xu mentioned it, he would sigh. He even called Dian Wei a…a…stupid…servant. It seemed like he was scolding him like that. General Dian Wei was a man, so why was he a servant?
Guo Jia was about to be possessed.
"Me? I'm just worried that Old Cao will drift off and sleep with Zhang Xiuzhi's aunt!”
Xu Zhen said unhappily.
Guo Jia was stunned.
S-sleeping with someone else's aunt?
What kind of fetish was this?
"This…this is impossible…"
Guo Jia muttered to himself. No matter how he looked at it, Cao Gong did not seem like the kind of person who liked to sleep with other people's wives…
Initially, he felt that it was fine if Xu Zhen did not answer him. Now that he had answered him, it made him even more confused. Which f * cking military book would write such a plan?!
He could even foresee other people sleeping with women?
……
Early the next morning, Cao Cao's army set off and arrived at Wan City. Zhang Xiu and Jia Xu stood at the city gate and saw the tens of thousands of soldiers.
Zhang Xiu immediately panicked." Advisor Jun, what do you think…how do we break out of this situation?”
Jia Xu's eyes were also somewhat moved as he said indifferently,"General, don't be anxious. Since it's a battle, it's nothing more than a battle of generals. Let's see the general's ability first.”
"Good!"
Zhang Xiu immediately went down to the gatehouse and reorganized his troops. He led his troops out of the city and soon saw a tall and mighty man coming from Cao Cao's camp. His arms were strong and his eyes were filled with a murderous light.
It was as if a god had descended to the mortal world, making people feel that they did not dare to fight. They felt that the general in front of them was like an iron cast body that could not be matched.
A deputy general under Zhang Xiu came out and shouted,""Thieving general! Let me fight you!"
As the warhorses galloped over, Dian Wei stepped on the iron stirrups and exerted a little strength. He pulled out his halberds from the sack and swung them fiercely.
Herod!
The general's warhorse neighed and fell to the ground!
With a heavy thud, the dust scattered to both sides, and the person was also struck to death.
The soldiers behind Dian Wei roared and cheered. Their momentum instantly reached its peak.
"Hahaha! Again! All of you in Wan City are thieves. None of you can fight.”
Dian Wei waved his halberds and stared at Zhang Xiu!
Zhang Xiu was currently in the prime of his youth. Ever since he had learned the spear technique, he had never fought with a fierce general. Now that he had seen one and was even provoking him, he naturally couldn't help it.
"Thief general, report your name!"
"Your grandfather, Dian Wei!"
Dian Wei lifted the halberd with his right hand and pointed the halberd in his left hand at Zhang Xiu. He shook it a few times and shouted,"Come!"
