Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Of course, these respects are only superficial. Guan Yu is just a military commander. When the family faces military commanders, there is something called contempt in their bones.

Guan Yu did not want to see the tacit understanding between the aristocratic families. What he wanted to see was the competition between the aristocratic families. Only with competition would these aristocratic families not unite.

The strength of the Jingzhou aristocratic families is too strong, which is why Liu Bei does not dare to take action on a large scale. Pressuring these aristocratic families will not do any good for Jingzhou.

After leaving the Prefect's Mansion, Cai Tu's expression flashed with an undetectable stern look. The Cai family in Wancheng and the Cai family in Jingzhou were not closely involved. This was just in the eyes of other aristocratic families. In fact, the reason why the Cai family in Wancheng was able to leave

At this point, the Cai family in Jingzhou secretly has a lot of support, but this matter is extremely obscure and other aristocratic families in Jingzhou don't know about it.

Although the Cai family in Wancheng is powerful, it is a family that has existed in Jingzhou for a long time. It has not aroused the suspicion of others. The Cai family in Wancheng is the family secretly controlled by the Cai family in Jingzhou.

The people of the Cai family in Xiangyang were eradicated by Liu Bei. One can imagine Cai's hatred for Liu Bei. Now he and Liu Cong are secretly controlled. There are more soldiers of Liu Bei in the palace, and their every move is monitored.

In the midst of this, I recall how wealthy the Cai family in Jingzhou was in the current situation because of the rise of Liu Bei. Even though Liu Bei showed great strength at this time, he could not win the support of the Cai family.

Three days later, Cao Cao's army began a large-scale siege of the city. Three city walls launched attacks at the same time. The number of Pili Chariots outside the city reached an astonishing 300. The dispatch of so many Pili Chariots at once showed that Cao Cao was determined to seize the heart of Jingzhou.

.

Although Wancheng's defenders also had Pili chariots, there was a big gap between them and Cao's army in terms of quality and quantity. In the competition between the two sides, Wancheng's defenders were on the weaker side.

This is a battle of frontal strength. What is more tested is the strength and strategy of the army, which play a minimal role here. If they want to defend Wancheng, the Jingzhou army must show sufficient strength.

As for the Jingzhou court's move to denounce Cao Cao, in the eyes of the princes, it was just an act of a weak person. The Han Dynasty may still have some influence on ordinary people, but for princes like Cao Cao who have powerful troops, the court's influence has been reduced to a minimum.

.

The continuous siege for half a month has left Wancheng beyond recognition, and the defenders have lost more than a thousand people during the siege. The moats on the three walls of the city have been filled up by Cao's army, and what will greet the Wancheng defenders will be even more fierce.

attack.

Guan Yu commanded the defenders on the west wall where Cao's army attacked the most fiercely. The aristocratic families in the city even dispatched some of their private soldiers to help Guan Yu defend the city. The aristocratic families cooperated so well that Guan Yu felt at ease. What he was most worried about before was

There is a secret connection between the family and Cao Cao.

Relying on the strength of Wancheng and the support of his family, Guan Yu was confident to defend Wancheng and provide more time for Jingzhou to mobilize troops, horses, grain and supplies. Nanyang County had an important position for Jingzhou and could not be lost.

Even the people in the city mobilized for Guan Yu. Many young men were added to the army. For every two soldiers of the Jingzhou Army, there would be one young man. Under Cao Jun's attack, these young men were lost.

Although it is very large, it is growing slowly. This is also the helpless side of the Jingzhou army. Jingzhou does not have more troops to mobilize. Compared with Wancheng, Xiangyang is more important. The number of 10,000 defenders is already huge.

Weak strength.

For three days, Cao Jun launched a non-stop attack day and night. At night, the thunderbolt chariots did not stop, which kept the defenders in the city in a tight state and did not dare to relax at all. On two occasions, Cao Jun even took advantage of the night to attack.

He launched an attack on Wancheng, but had it not been for the strong resistance of the defenders, Cao's army would have defeated it.

The war made Guan Yu realize the terror of Cao's army. He could clearly feel the progress of Cao's army in the siege. Especially the Qingzhou army, they behaved extremely crazy during the siege. What they showed was that they failed to achieve their goals.

The spirit of never giving up, and the strength of this kind of soldier, can play a vital role in a war.

Cao Jun, the main tent of the Chinese army.

Cao Cao turned his attention to Cheng Yu and said: "Zhongde, our army has been attacking Wancheng for several days. Are there any noble families in the city who secretly support me?"

This is also an issue that Cao Cao is extremely concerned about. As long as he gets the support of the noble family, regardless of the tenacity of the defenders at this time and the internal cooperation, Guan Yu will inevitably fail.

Cheng Yu shook his head and said: "My lord, there is news from Xizuo that the aristocratic families in the city are extremely supportive of Guan Yu, and even sent their private soldiers into the army to obey Guan Yu's orders."

"The Cai family in Wancheng is powerful, but is it related to the Cai family in Jingzhou?" Cao Cao asked. Before attacking Wancheng, he had already conducted a detailed analysis of the situation in Wancheng.

Cheng Yu said: "The Wancheng Cai family has nothing to do with the Jingzhou Cai family. Although the Wancheng Cai family showed favor to the Jingzhou Cai family when the Jingzhou Cai family was strong, they did not gain the attention of Cai Mao."

Cao Cao frowned slightly. According to his idea, the Cai family in Wancheng should be involved with the Cai family in Jingzhou. Otherwise, how could the Cai family in Jingzhou allow the Cai family in Wancheng to become so powerful.

After Cheng Yu finished telling what he knew, Cao Cao fell into silence.

Xun You said: "My lord, on this occasion you might as well send someone to contact the Cai family in Wancheng secretly. Cai Tu, the prefect of Wancheng, is the head of the Cai family. If we can get Cai Tu's support, it will not be difficult to pacify Wancheng. Even if Guan Yu

He is highly skilled in martial arts, but he is just a martial artist."

Cao Cao nodded slightly, turned his gaze to Cheng Yu and said: "Order the hidden men in the city to be cautious when contacting the Cai family. If these aristocratic families are unwilling to surrender to me, after Wancheng is conquered, there will be no need for the aristocratic families in the city to exist.

Already."

Cheng Yu felt a chill in his heart, knowing that Cao Cao was angry.

When facing a war, the Cai family will measure each other's strength. This is especially true in an era when princes are rising. No one wants the power of the family to suffer huge losses in the war, so they choose princes who are beneficial to the family.

Can obtain greater benefits and further strengthen the family's strength.

If Cao Cao had led his troops to attack Jingzhou when Liu Bei first took control of Jingzhou, it would have been very effective. However, Cao Cao's army suffered huge losses at Huguan and could only watch Liu Bei grow stronger step by step in Jingzhou.

Liu Bei's growth is not good news for Cao Cao, and his advisers have a clear understanding of this.
