    Puyang City is the seat of Dongjun. Although it is close to the Yellow River and is a fertile place as long as there are no floods, it never thought that one day the emperor would visit, so it is impossible to say anything about it.  The facilities were planned, let alone built.

    Yes, since the emperor has arrived, he cannot be allowed to live in Cao Cao's somewhat poor mansion.

    Time was tight and the task was heavy, but with the concerted efforts of everyone in Cao Cao's army, they still built a miraculous building complex.

    During this process, the construction unit developed new techniques such as the xx method and the ¡ð¡ð method that were unprecedented in the construction industry to speed up construction.  Throughout the construction project, a total of nn national patents have been applied for, xxx innovative technologies have been applied, and yyy independent intellectual property rights have been applied. It is already at the top of the world in the construction industry, and other forces have been left behind for more than five years.  distance, and picking up the zz item is known as the "orb/diamond/treasure in the xx¡ð¡ð crown".

    Although I have said so many words that sound very familiar and make people feel unclear, there is actually only one core idea, and that is - because the speed is too fast, no matter how many methods that sound unclear are used,  , but it is inevitable that some places are not careful enough or careless. Even if it looks majestic and difficult to shake on the surface, in fact it is.

    Although it is a bit excessive to use the derogatory term "tofu dregs" to describe an imperial city, in reality, neither Cao Cao nor anyone else thinks this thing is very strong.  That¡¯s it.

    After all, you can't expect that these things that are probably temporary buildings made of construction waste that you don't know where will have high strength. After all, if you really use rammed earth as the core like the Luoyang city wall, and use strips on the outside,  Stone or large bluestone city bricks, not to mention the problem of labor hours, even the cost estimate can make Cao Cao vomit blood as his territory is compressed to the extreme.

    Of course.  If the quality of the project is not up to par, it all depends on who is being told.

    If this kind of thing faced, not to mention Li Shushi's golden cupping cannon, even an ordinary wooden trebuchet or a cowhide-covered crash car would probably have no choice but to kneel down, even if it was a group of mobs carrying a cannon.  Large log.  As long as there are enough people, the number of collisions will be enough.  It is estimated that it would not be difficult to open a few openings in these city walls.

    But if it were a group of unarmed ordinary people, unless they were Yu Gong with special skill bonuses, this thing would still be able to withstand the test of history if it was bitten with teeth and chiseled with hands.  At that time, it was actually not a big deal to create a few holes for people to pass through. After all, all the problems were just a matter of time.

    But just like the political last words given by Yu Gong to his descendants, the time required must definitely be calculated in terms of "generations".

    Of course, no matter how long it takes, they will be nothing compared to the changes in nature. It is estimated that these once towering things will turn into real dregs within a hundred years due to wind, frost, rain and snow alone.  And it's still the kind that requires a little effort, a few more kicks, and probably a few pairs of straw sandals to successfully dig a tunnel in no more than a week.

    Well, what I actually want to express after saying so many words is that the rebels who suddenly rose up found that the first and perhaps biggest problem they needed to face was the well-known but only for them  The walls of the imperial city look like a natural chasm.

    In fact, as rebels who have been preparing for a long time, their various preparations can still be said to be in an orderly manner. Whether it is food, mobilization, or various weapons, they are almost ready. Even if Cao Cao still leaves some troops in Puyang City,  A large number of troops serve as the forbidden army, but a good tiger cannot fight against a pack of wolves, not to mention that there are not many generals in Puyang City who can be named.

    But this siege equipment can be said to be completely unprepared.  Because they had not expected to encounter this situation before.

    In fact, in their original preparations, the friendly forces they had penetrated into the enemy should appear at the city gate at this time, and cooperate with them inside and outside to seize control of the city gate.  Then let this city gate become an important support for them to advance, attack, retreat and defend.

    Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement on the city gate. This reaction was indeed a bit abnormal.

    After all, even if the internal agents did not come to complete the tasks they were supposed to complete, and then they were on the scene or mixed in with the extras and yelled a few slogans in order to hang out for one more day and get a day's lunch box or the legendary salary for the extras, at least the soldiers guarding the imperial city  Seeing such a huge gathering of people, you should have some reaction.

    Anyway, it shouldn¡¯t be as dead as night like now. It¡¯s obvious that they have torches in their hands.The darkness here has been dispelled.

    "Do you think these people can play any role? Or can the abilities of these people support your ambitions?"

    Looking at the rebels who had transformed into a pot of ants below, a young voice came from an observation turret on the city wall.

    However, the owner of this voice did not seem to expect any response, and waited very patiently for a long time, so that it was just like a glimpse.  This sudden sound came suddenly and went away silently.

    Of course.  Perhaps the owner of the voice originally just wanted to say such a sentence, and then left without leaving a cloud or figure behind.

    Anyway, the quality of the rebels.  From the chaos of that moment, it was revealed that there was indeed no need to continue observing.

    But if you really think so, you do look down upon these once-high-ranking people in Yanzhou.

    "A frontal attack is no longer possible. Let Xu Xi bring his people over and set up a ladder. There are few soldiers on the other side, and we must be unprepared for the sudden use of force. Even if we immediately notify Xun Yu and other party members, it will be too late.  Late. Therefore, we must fight quickly and cannot delay the fight because of concerns about personal losses. Again, you have already embarked on this road, so don¡¯t think about the two ends!"

    After all, he was an experienced person who had participated in the strangulation war of hundreds of thousands of people. Although his ability to lead the army was really inferior, maybe not as good as Li Shushi, he was at least a person who had seen the world and would not just do it casually because of some things.  I was completely flustered by the little things.

    Um.  Of course, in the face of the menacing Sun Bofu, history has proven that his panic is actually correct to a certain extent.

    Firstly, it is because of the herd mentality of the masses when they are in panic.  Secondly, because Zhang Miao was originally the leader recommended by everyone, his words still had considerable effect.  At least everyone calmed down immediately and started to prepare according to his instructions.

    Although the rebels were a little unprepared when facing the imperial city gate because the huge log was too conspicuous and they were extremely confident that the internal agents had penetrated into the enemy, in fact their preparations were actually very comprehensive.  , at least several long ladders for climbing to high places were prepared. It was considered that when attacking the palace, the enemy might take advantage of the terrain to resist, so these things were prepared.  And now it has indeed come in handy.

    Theoretically speaking, this method of ants occupying the city is definitely the best strategy in a siege, but it also depends on the occasion and location - at this time, the enemy should be "unable to react" and the garrison in the imperial city has been observed from recent times.  It seems that there are no unusual movements, which means that even if they use this method of using people to attack, the opponent's troops will never be able to afford it.

    Even if the opponent has the advantage of geographical location and is limited by military strength, it will not be able to truly stop them.

    Of course, if you delay here for too long, it will indeed have an unknown impact on subsequent actions.  That's why Zhang Miao asked everyone to put aside their petty thoughts temporarily. Otherwise, if they still think about engaging in internal strife when they need to race against time, then they will deserve to be exterminated - God's sins are forgivable.  If you do something wrong on your own, you really can¡¯t live!

    Seeing that many rebel soldiers had climbed up the walls of the imperial city from various areas along the long ladder, everyone's mood was not only not relieved, but also raised in their throats.  Because everyone except really idiots know that if there are guards guarding the palace, now is their best chance to take action.

    Are there any idiots here?

    Maybe these people are all guys who can't see the situation clearly, but in terms of intelligence, at least under the education system of the modern society where Li Shushi once lived, they are all fighters among a group of liberal arts students, even if they are not top academics.  He is definitely a popular person whose academic performance can allow his teacher's annual bonus to increase slightly, and perhaps some additional gains.

    "Ah, ah. Ah" Sure enough, before the soldiers who climbed to the top of the city could stand firm.  Each one of them was chopped off from the top of the city at a faster speed. There were even multiple ones appearing in succession on a certain section of the city wall. Their heads were separated, or the upper and lower parts of their bodies needed to be spliced ??together before they could be reunited.  corpse.  And there is only one possibility that corpses will appear in a short time, that is, there is a very powerful guy on the top of the city who can instantly kill the private soldiers who board the city.

    After all, even if their strength is not as good as that of the regular army that has experienced hundreds of battles, soldiers sent by generals such as Xu Xi and Mao Hui who served under Cao Cao have always received a lot of professional training and have participated in some local bandit suppression or  In lower-intensity battles, even if you are unable to obtain more information due to various reasons,There are many opportunities for improvement, but it is difficult to be directly killed by ordinary soldiers.

    Although many soldiers who fell fell to their death on the solid ground due to the height of the city wall, it was not the kind of instant kill scene that left no corpses intact, and it did not look shocking. Naturally, it could not arouse the "numerous" reserve troops.  Rebels pay too much attention.

    "Don't stop, keep attacking, the enemy won't be able to hold on for long!"

    Although he shouted like this, Xu Xi did not follow the lead of those fierce generals on the battlefield and led his men to the city together.

    After all, as the frontline commander who climbed the city, he felt the pressure from the city wall firsthand. At least he estimated that even if he tried his best, he might be able to kill the weaker soldiers in his army instantly if he was lucky.

    As for the fact that every attack can kill a person, and it seems that he has killed more than a dozen people and still shows no sign of weakening, Xu Xi feels that he is still very self-aware. Sending his soldiers to die is already the limit of what he can bear, and there is no need to offend him.  If he gets involved himself, it is estimated that not only will he not be praised behind the scenes, but everything about him will be immediately divided up.

    It seems that the situation has fallen into a stalemate. The rebels have not thought of using bows and arrows to suppress the opponent, but under the cover of night, the troops guarding the city wall are all very agile.  They are good at evading, and there is a lack of sharpshooters among the rebels, so bow and arrow suppression cannot play its due role in this situation.  So maybe it was only a matter of time before the rebels attacked the city.  But in this race against time, even if it's just a little delay.  The situation of the war may change drastically.

    As Zhang Miao who had participated in the battle against Dong, and as an insider who had learned in detail from Cao Cao about Cao Cao and Sun Jian's performance in the battle against Dong, it can be said that he had a deeper understanding of this point than others present.  Yes, I understand.

    Although Zhang Miao didn't know how to arrange a battle formation, nor how to dispatch his troops to accurately penetrate the enemy's weak points and lead the occupation to victory, he was just a civil servant, a very famous civil servant, but he was also  Because he is a civilian official, he does not have the way a military commander thinks about the battlefield.  But he can look at the war situation from the perspective of an ordinary civil servant.

    "Tell Xu Si to pull out those disciples who know strategy. Since our bows and arrows cannot suppress them, then we can use what we are good at to let them know how powerful we are. Tell everyone, don't worry about mp.  I have prepared enough mysterious water, and if you perform well, you will be rewarded with mysterious wine, which is a rare 'Ten Mile Fragrance' on the market!"

    Although Zhang Miao is indeed not an excellent commander, he still showed certain qualities in this kind of battle where his own side had the upper hand.  At least several decisions have prevented the situation from developing in a direction that is not conducive to one's own side.

    ¡°Perhaps, if it weren¡¯t for some selfish thoughts in his heart, Zhang Miao¡¯s ability would be enough.  It is completely possible to seek a high status in Cao Cao's army that is gradually developing and expanding.  It's a pity that by mistake, the original friends will become unrelenting enemies after tonight.

    The participation of civilian troops in the war can be said to have had an immediate effect on the anxious war situation.

    Although it is only the simplest and low-level scorching strategy, it still plays an extremely critical role in the battlefield situation.

    First of all, the attack range of Searing Heat is much larger than that of bows and arrows, so it can attack enemies more effectively in places with a wider field of vision. At the same time, even if Searing Heat cannot attack the enemy, the fire it generates can illuminate the surrounding environment in a short time.  If you are prepared for this brief moment, both the soldiers who board the city and the archers who use bows and arrows to support the city will be able to immediately discover the defenders hiding in the shadows of the city walls.  Even if it cannot be killed immediately, it can still allow the soldiers who board the city to escape the fatal blow from the shadow.  This creates favorable conditions for him to ascend to the top of the city.

    Even if you can¡¯t see anything at first, it doesn¡¯t take long.  The accumulated advantages have forced the imperial troops defending the city to abandon the defense of several sections of the city wall and instead form small military formations on the city wall to resist the attacks of more and more enemies.

    "However, this kind of resistance is just a last resort. Their physical strength is destined to be unable to compare with the continuous flow of new troops.

    Even though the city gate is still not open, it is certain that this sudden battle for the city gate is about to end.

    "Your Majesty, General Wang has sent word that the enemy has broken through the city gate and is dividing its troops and moving towards the palace and Taiwan Province."

    "Is there any news from the emperor?"

    "The emperor has already prepared an order to fight against rebellion. In this way, those old diehards who plan to hide at home should also come out to trouble the country. Huh, those bastards, usuallyThey don't do any business here, but they always criticize their father's government orders. If they don't behave well this time, they must be punished by their father for colluding with the rebels!  "

    "Master Zixiu, please don't talk like that. They are all famous officials of our great Han Dynasty, and they are not the kind of people who would lose their honor and integrity for the sake of small gains."

    "Hmph! That Zhang Mengzhuo is also my father's best friend, and I have lived in his home for a long time. I originally thought that he was indeed a humble gentleman, but I never thought that he would be dazzled by the benefits and do such a rebellious thing.  For example. Those ministers who have survived to this day under Li Guo may not be as good as Zhang Mengzhuo, and it is not surprising even if they are connected with rebellion."

    "Hey, the young master really has too many misunderstandings about the ministers. Sometimes they can't help themselves."

    "Humph, these words are not entirely my family's words. There is also His Majesty's meaning in them. But there are some words that Lord Lingjun should understand. Your Majesty cannot come out to do such a thing, so it can only be done by us.  Let these ministers do the work for you."

    "Is this what His Majesty means? Then there is nothing we can do about it. What the Young Master said is true. We should indeed take His Majesty's thoughts first."

    Seeing Xun Yu finally showing an expression of agreement, the somewhat young Cao Ang cheered as if he had achieved some huge victory.  After all, that was Xun Yu and Xun Wenruo. Anyone could see that Xun Lingjun was about to become the centerpiece of Shangshu Ling's governance.

    However, Xun Yu was not dissatisfied with Cao Ang's attitude. In other words, although the result was a little beyond his expectation, when he thought of the scene when he met the young emperor, Xun Yu was also dissatisfied.  Feeling relieved.

    Furthermore, according to his true thoughts, he is not fundamentally different from Cao Ang. He also dislikes those people who are unable to protect the Han Dynasty.  Just to save themselves or their family, they would grovel in front of the powerful, and then start to shamelessly dominate them even if they respect them a little bit. This kind of attitude is a bit disgusting even with Xun Yu's self-cultivation.

    In comparison, those ministers who generously died because they were angry that the emperor of the Han Dynasty was kidnapped by ignorant powerful ministers, and those ministers who endured humiliation and heavy burdens just to be able to kill cruel powerful ministers can be regarded as models of loyal ministers of the previous generation and are worthy of going.  respect.

    But it is definitely not these n-generation people who are ignorant and arrogant just because they have a good father and a good husband, and they have a lot of money and acres of land at home.

    Of course, as a mature-minded politician, he is different from Cao Ang, who is young and energetic but ultimately immature.  Even if he has the same purpose, Xun Yu will obviously be more mature and perfect in terms of means.  At least, his actions need to ensure that the fundamental interests of the family will not be shaken.  Therefore, the methods will be gentler, but they will never be laissez-faire.

    The fundamental interests of the family will not be shaken, but it does not mean that the normal rise and fall will not proceed. Xun Yu has a clearer understanding of this than many people. Even he himself feels that what Guo Jia retells to him is what Li Shushi said.  The story about placing one or two predatory fish among them to keep them active is very reasonable in order to ensure that a certain type of fish can survive more during transportation.  Only running water will not rot. If it is a pool of stagnant water, then it really can only be left to ugliness to cultivate.

    After Cao Ang received the generals from Xun Yu, he trotted away from Xun Yu's government office. He would go to Wang Bi, the commander of the city defense army who was staying in Puyang.  This is the first time in his life that he has stepped onto the stage and entered the battlefield. This young man has always seemed very calm in front of his father Cao Cao.  Now, the unique vitality and excitement about unknown things that belong to young people are finally revealed.

    Of course, this may also be because he is far away from his majestic father.

    And there was another reason why Cao Ang was so excited.  However, Wang Bi, who is the captain of the city gate, can be regarded as a die-hard supporter of Cao Cao. Even if his ability is not very ordinary, he is more loyal to Cao Cao. Because of this, when Cao Cao is away on an expedition,  Under the circumstances, this loyalty naturally transferred to Cao Ang.

    In other words, as long as Cao Ang is willing, he can not only get an excellent army from Wang Bi, but it is basically impossible to be hindered by the other party for various reasons, so no matter how it is played, it will be done by him alone  Bear the consequences.

    Although it is indeed not easy for a young man with little experience to bear all the responsibilities on his own, but from another perspective, the feeling of having a heavy responsibility on his shoulders is really too overwhelming.  Had a wonderful time.

    Xun Yu, who also needed to be transferred, could not help but shake his head and chuckle when he saw Cao Ang's excitement even when he looked at his back. Sure enough, Xun Yu felt that he preferred the energetic man to the gloomy old man.  youngpeople.

    Just like Cao Cao, whom he chose to serve, he also has a vigor and drive that is unmatched by others. Perhaps only with this drive can we break through the shackles that have allowed this dynasty to decay and build a new era on the ruins.

    Of course, maybe he and his lord are not the only young people with such thoughts.

    Thinking of the young Han emperor who was not far away, and then thinking of the prince from the north who had a good relationship with Cao Cao, Xun Yu felt that maybe his road was not as lonely as he imagined, but maybe it was actually quite lively.  Not sure.

    Raising his head, his eyes were already focused on the familiar place in the distance.  (To be continued)
