S-level auxiliary system: All the heroes of the ages are for my own use

The potter quickly set off for Jizhou with a team of soldiers and horses.

At this time, Lu Bu, who was lurking in the mountains, had already had people closely observe the gates of the four cities. At the north gate, they found a pottery merchant leading a group of soldiers out of Xuzhou City.

The spies hurried back to report the incident to Lu Bu. When he learned that the pottery merchant was going out, he must have sent reinforcements, so he quickly called a Jin Yiwei who accompanied the army and asked him to follow the pottery merchant all the way to see where he wanted to go to rescue the soldiers.

Jin Yiwei received the order, got on his horse, and chased after the potter.

On Cao Ren's side, in the large tent of the Chinese army, Cao Hong, Xia Houdun, and Xia Houyuan gathered here to discuss how to attack the city tomorrow.

This time they brought the siege engine, Cao Ren said to the crowd:

"Tomorrow we will lead the army to Xuzhou to call for battle, but I am afraid that old Tao Qian has been too scared to show his face. They will definitely not go out of the city to fight our army, and then they can only attack Xuzhou city by force."

Several people also knew that Tao Qian was already terrified when they attacked Xuzhou last time. This time they came, they had only one way to attack the city.

In the blink of an eye, it was the morning of the second day. After the soldiers had eaten, Cao Ren led the army and directly pressed towards Xuzhou City.

Seeing this, Cao Bao and others on the city wall cheered up one after another. Cao Bao shouted loudly:

"Cao Jun is here, cheer me up and prepare to fight Cao Jun to the death!"

The soldiers on the city wall quickly looked down the city, and all they saw was darkness. Some veterans felt a little timid when they saw Cao Jun after the last battle with Cao Cao's army.

At this time outside the city, Xiahou Dun came out alone, holding a unicorn tooth, pointed at the city wall, and shouted:

"Listen, people in the city, I am Xiahoudun, open the city and surrender quickly, otherwise after entering the city, I will kill without mercy!"

When Cao Cao heard Xiahoudun's call, he responded unwillingly:

"Thieve Cao is so shameless, he came to attack our Xuzhou again and again, has he forgotten? How did he escape last time!"

When Xiahoudun heard that this man didn't follow the routine, he scolded his lord. He couldn't bear it, and said:

"Old Tao Qian killed my lord's father. If brothers Liu, Guan, and Zhang hadn't sneaked into our army when they attacked Xuzhou last time, you wouldn't be arrogant here. If you have the guts, you can come down and fight!"

Cao Bao knew how Xuzhou won last time. Hearing that Xiahou Dun asked him to go down to fight him, he smiled contemptuously and said:

"If you really have the ability, then attack and kill every single one of you!"

Cao Ren listened to the conversation between the two, and said to Xiahou Dun:

"Yuan Rang, come back and prepare to attack the city. They dare not go out of the city to fight our army."

Xiahou Dun looked at the man in the city viciously, and kept that man in his heart, and planned to kill him after breaking through the city gate, so as to relieve his hatred.

After Xiahou Dun returned to the team, Cao Ren raised his weapon and shouted:

"Brothers, take the city, I invite you to drink and eat meat! Kill!"

Cao Ren gave an order, and the soldiers behind all shouted, "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Immediately afterwards, they all rushed to the gate of the city.

When Cao Bao saw Cao Jun rushing, he ordered the archers to get ready. The archers opened their bows and arrows one after another, aiming at the soldiers rushing down the city.

When Cao Jun was about to rush to the city, he only heard Cao Bao's order, and all arrows were fired, and they shot directly at the soldiers and horses rushing below.

All of a sudden, the charging soldiers fell to the ground one after another. Cao Ren immediately ordered the shield soldiers to go up to help other soldiers resist the rain of arrows.

Although there is a shield, when tens of thousands of arrows are shot down, it is inevitable that some unlucky ones will fall to the ground, but the number of casualties is reduced.

The soldiers carrying the ladder broke through the difficulties and obstacles and got under the city wall. They put the siege ladder on the city wall and began to climb up.

Cao Bao, Zhang Kai and others had been observing the Cao army attacking the city below, and seeing that someone had already come up the siege ladder, they hurriedly ordered the soldiers to throw stones down.

The stones hit Cao Jun's soldiers on their heads, and all of them burst their heads, fell down, and their brains splattered everywhere.

At the same time, a group of shield soldiers escorted the siege vehicles and walked towards the city gate.

It's a pity that Cao Cao had already ordered people to raise the suspension bridge. The siege vehicles could not move forward and could only stay by the moat. The soldiers could wade across the river, but the siege vehicles were so heavy that as long as they fell into the moat, Definitely no longer available.

Seeing this, Cao Ren said to Xia Houyuan who was beside him:

"Miaocai, shoot off the rope of the suspension bridge and let the suspension bridge come down, otherwise how can we attack the city."

Xia Houyuan was not only good in martial arts, but also very good at archery. Hearing Cao Ren's words, he no longer hesitated, hung his weapon on one side of the horse, and took down a big bow from the other side of the horse.

Because the distance was too far, Xia Houyuan rushed down the city with a longbow in his hand. When he got close, he looked up at the ropes of the suspension bridge. chain!

Xia Houyuan took an arrow from the side of the horse, put it on the longbow, and aimed at the iron chain on the suspension bridge.

Xia Houyuan loosened his hand holding the bow, and the arrow flew out, shooting straight towards the iron chain.

When the arrow collided with the iron chain, sparks flew everywhere, and the iron chain showed no sign of breaking.

Seeing this, Xia Houyuan shook his head helplessly, turned his horse's head, and went back in the direction where Cao Ren was.

Back beside Cao Ren, Xia Houyuan said:

"Zixiao, it can't be done. The suspension bridge is not a rope, but an iron chain as thick as the wrist. The arrow shot up and sparked a burst of sparks, and there was no sign of breaking at all."

After hearing Xia Houyuan's words, Cao Ren felt a little troubled, and said:

"What should I do? I brought the siege engine, but if I can't use it, it's just like ordinary waste, and the target is too big, and it's easy to be attacked."

Several people were a little helpless, and finally Cao Ren ordered the siege engine to be withdrawn, and only the siege ladder was used.

After a day of siege, Cao Jun didn't take advantage of it, so he had to withdraw his troops back to camp in despair.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Cao Ren, who looked helpless, looked at the aggrieved faces of several people, and said:

"Which one of you has the means to break the iron chain of the suspension bridge? If the suspension bridge comes down, the siege vehicles can rush in, no matter how strong the city gate is, they can finally break through. If we attack the city like today, I'm afraid, it will be very difficult for us." Go into the city."

Everyone lowered their heads one after another, and began to think about how to cut off the chain. Xiahou Dun said:

"Unless someone can climb up and cut off the iron chain with a big knife, there is no other way to break the iron chain."
