Chapter 709 Trap

The next morning, Hao Zhao sent soldiers to recruit cattle to be transferred back, and a total of more than 1,200 cattle were recruited. Although the number was a little smaller, it could be very useful at critical moments. Guo Jia knew very well.

After breakfast, Cao Cao personally supervised the attack on Guandu City. When Cao's soldiers saw Cao Cao personally supervising the battle, they dared to be negligent and even dared not retreat. They bravely advanced and attacked with arrows. Although soldiers were constantly hurt by their own bows and arrows during the attack, Cao's soldiers still advanced bravely.

The Cao army easily attacked the city wall, and the arrows did not stop shooting at this time; and the defensive soldiers in Guandu City did not rush out to counterattack, but retreated to a place where the arrows could not be shot, which allowed the Cao army soldiers to rush down the stairs and attack into the city in one fell swoop.

When Yu Jin saw his soldiers easily breaking through Lu Ning's defense line, this made Yu Jin feel uneasy and always felt that it was too smooth. This was not like the fighting style of Lu Ning's army. In his heart, Yu Jin always felt that Lu Ning was an elite army, fighting bravely, and he would not retreat no matter how difficult it was, and would fight tenaciously to the end.

Not only Yu Jin felt inconceivable, but Cao Xing and Hao Meng also felt that it was not right, but at this time the arrow was on the string and there was no way to retreat. They could only continue to command their soldiers to step forward and open the city gate as soon as possible.

The Guandu city gate opened without any effort, which made Cao Cao, who was supervising the battle in the distance, unexpectedly. The city gate that had not been broken in more than ten days was actually taken down in one wave. It felt very easy and it was too smooth. I don’t know where the problem lies.

When Le Jin saw that Guandu's city gate was opened by a divisor, he did not wait for Cao Cao's order and immediately led the central army to kill the city gate. The Cao army soldiers rushed to the city gate and rushed to the city gate desperately, trying to vent their suppressed anger that had been suppressed for many days.

Xu You said excitedly: "Lord, the city gate is open!"

Xun You said in confusion: "Lord, this is too smooth. There will be no traps, right?"

Cao Cao smiled bitterly and said, "I can't think of where the problem is?"

In Guandu City, Wei Yan commanded his soldiers to retreat slowly and constantly fired the Cao army with the crossbow in his hands. The formation was neat and orderly, and there was no slight chaos. When the city gate was opened, Wei Yan shouted and led his soldiers to retreat quickly, without contact with the Cao army at all.

At this time, the Cao army soldiers bravely advanced into the depths of the city as if they were picking up gold, for fear that they would be picked up by others when they were late; and a large number of Cao army soldiers outside the city flocked in, rushing into the city one after another.

Just as Cao's army rushed into Guandu City, Cao Cao's guards came to report: "Lord, letter from Xuchang!"

Cao Cao took the letter and knew at a glance that it was sent by Xun Yu, which was an expedited letter. This made Cao Cao feel a little uneasy. What important things would be in Xuchang for Xun Yu to deliver it in an expedited manner?

Cao Cao took out the letter and looked at it. Even when he saw Cao Cao's face became increasingly ugly, and even his hands holding the letter were trembling. Xun You, Cheng Yu, Xu You and others next to him were shocked. He didn't know what happened, which could make the calm and calm Lao Cao so panic.

Dong Zhao asked carefully: "Lord, what happened?"

Cao Cao sighed and smiled bitterly: "Puyang was captured by Tian Chou's army. Li Dian and Liu Yan's life and death are uncertain. The 50,000 troops in Puyang City disappeared. This is the situation introduced to Xun Yu by the soldiers fleeing back to Xuchang. The detailed situation remains to be found."

Cao Cao's words were like a heavy pound bomb, shocking the strategist and civil servants next to him. No one expected that such a result would be. This was really unexpected. For a moment, everyone was stunned and stood there stupidly.

Especially Xun You, who judged that there was something wrong with Puyang yesterday, but today I received the news of the fall, which was too fast! It shows that it was Lu Ning's conspiracy and everything was to make excuses for the offensive.

After Cheng Yu came to his senses, he immediately advised: "Lord, we should withdraw our troops as soon as possible and retreat to Chenliu immediately. Once Tian Chou's army takes Dingtao and advances into Chenliu, our retreat will be dangerous."

Xu You said: "It's too late to retreat now, and the soldiers are rushing into Guandu City now!"

Cao Cao thought for a while and said, "No hurry, he actually broke through Guandu. It's not too late to take Guandu down first and then return to Chenliu. Guandu is too important to us."

In Guandu City, Lu Ning's army quickly entered the inner city and gave the passage to Cao's soldiers; while Cao's soldiers ran desperately into the deep inside the city without any obstacles; Yu Jin felt that the situation was a little wrong, but he couldn't understand it. Moreover, even Yu Jin ordered to stop moving forward at this time, it would not do much. Even Yu Jin himself was pushed forward by the soldiers flocking to the back!

The Cao army soldiers rushed forward like crazy. After running for a while, they found that there was a city gate in front of them tightly closed, so they slowly stopped. The Cao army soldiers looked around and found that there was no Lu Ning army soldier except the comrades; and the comrades behind were still trying hard to squeeze forward, and there was no way ahead, which made the entire Cao army soldiers even more dense.

At this time, the imperial ban also discovered the trap he entered. This is a city of Weng, why did you forget it?

Guandu asked for the construction of Weng City as soon as his mother opened the building of Lu Ning. In fact, it was not a secret for this year. As long as those who passed by Guandu knew it, including Cao Cao, Yu Jin and others, they also understood that Cao's army had been disgusted for more than ten days and suddenly had a channel to vent, so they could control it, and they had long thrown the Weng City matter out of the sky.

Just as Yu Jin was about to shout for retreat, a black army soldier suddenly appeared on the city wall, holding a series of crossbows in his hands, aiming at the Cao army soldiers in the chaos in the inner city.

The Cao army soldiers suddenly saw so many crossbows appearing on the city wall, and they were shocked. This situation was like waiting for slaughter, and there was no way to fight back.

Hao Zhao gave the order, chirp! chirp! chirp!

Tens of thousands of crossbows shot into the Cao army's formation, and arrows flew out, bringing out countless blood flowers. Some Cao army soldiers were shot into hornet's nests. The entire Cao army soldiers were in chaos and were hiding from all over the world, hoping to escape the ravages of the arrows.

Yu Jin shouted loudly in a panic: "Get out! Get out of the city quickly!"

Yu Jin's screams seemed too weak in the chaos of Cao's army, and were covered by howling, screams, crying, and moans. Cao's soldiers ran around like green-headed flies, no one could control them anymore, and could no longer exercise command.

This is not the most serious situation. There is also a tragic situation that Yu Jin and other Cao soldiers are unimaginable.

Guo Jia smiled slightly and said to the messenger beside him: "Let's start!"

As Guo Jia finished speaking, the commander flag waved, and the gate of Guandu inner city suddenly opened wide. 1,200 oxen tails were on fire, with sharp knives tied to their heads, and a small piece of red cloth hung on the cow's head. The cow rushed towards the Cao army soldiers frantically.
