Three Kingdoms: Stealing the Tiger Talisman and forcing Yuan Shao to become a monk

Chapter 249 Iron Fire Melting City! !
"What it is?"

Cao Ren looked in the direction pointed by the lieutenant general, and when Dang even couldn't help but shrink his pupils, the next sentence he blurted out was:

"Come on, quickly fire the feathered arrows and disperse the enemy army!"

But just as the words came out of his mouth, Cao Ren woke up from a dream and looked down in shock at Yuan Tan's tribe, who was fighting with the last [-] lives!

Now, how could Cao Ren not be able to react? It was clear that everything in front of him was Yuan Tan's scheme!

The more than [-] defenders before him have been dragged down and disabled by the continuous onslaught of Gao Lan, Huang Zhong and Pound's three troops.

The original remaining [-] fresh troops were an important reserve to prevent emergencies.

As for Yuan Tan, it was obvious that he had already figured this out!
So he did not hesitate to go into battle personally and lead his own cavalry to the top of Shouchun City in order to force out his last ten thousand troops!

Right now, the last mobile forces in Shouchun City are held back by Yuan Tan, and they even seem to be defeated by Yuan Tan!
And below the city, the smile on Gao Lan's face could almost be clearly seen by Cao Ren. This made Cao Ren not panic!
but……

After all, Cao Ren is a battle-tested veteran, and even a mighty warrior known as an iron wall in the Cao camp.

Even in the face of such an adverse situation, Cao Ren finally calmed down after a short period of panic.

Although Yuan Tan had many miraculous achievements on the battlefield, in Cao Ren's view, no matter how strong Yuan Tan was, he was still just a human being.

As for the defense of Shouchun City, Cao Ren was confident that no matter what kind of siege weapon Yuan Tan used, it would be futile to easily shake the defense of Shouchun City.

This is not because of Cao Ren's arrogance, but because of the dislocation of thinking between the two parties.

For Yuan Tan from later generations, although the defense of Shouchun City is strong, it is rare in the world.

But if you want to break through Shouchun City, there are too many methods you can use.

The reason why the tiger crouching gun was used was because the system drew this lottery.

However, although the tiger crouching cannon is a first-class siege weapon in this era.

But for one thing, there is still a certain gap between the tiger crouching cannon restored according to the design drawings and the real tiger crouching cannon in the Ming Dynasty.

If there was a burst of artillery bombardment at Shouchun City, there would probably be heavy thunder but little rain.

If you want to really play the effect, you must replace it with solid bullets.

But the solid bullets given by the cheating system are only [-] rounds.

This means that the tiger crouching cannon must not only be fired with one shot, but also be fired accurately and steadily!
However, it was the first time for the soldiers who operated the tiger squat gun to go into battle.

In order to avoid any accidents that shouldn't happen, Yuan Tan did not hesitate to go into battle in person.

More than a thousand soldiers rushed to Shouchun City with him, forcing Cao Ren to send out the last [-] fresh troops.

What I want is at this moment, Gao Lan can squat the tiger and bring it close enough to Shouchun City!
The closer you are to Shouchun City, the easier it is for the soldiers to manipulate the artillery positions and aim, and the less likely it is to make mistakes!
"Send the order, all units, prepare to retreat!!"

Looking at the artillery team that has almost arrived at the pre-arranged location.

Yuan Tan whispered to the soldiers on the left and right sides.

The soldiers on both sides immediately understood, and with the alloy steel knives in their hands, they stabbed out several times quickly and accurately.

In a blink of an eye, the surroundings were moved closer, and the Cao Ying soldiers who wanted to hold Yuan Tan's troops were cut down to the ground.

The blood flowed all over the ground, and Cao Ren on the tower frowned.

"This alloy steel knife... I don't know if our army can imitate it."

Cao Ren looked at the alloy steel knife gleaming in the sun, thought for a while, but withdrew to the battlefield again.

Based on Cao Ren's battlefield experience, it was obvious at a glance that something was wrong with the actions of Yuan Tan's army.

It's not that he wants to fight hard and break up their troops' defense.

On the contrary, it seems to be... retreating?

What does this mean?
A bad thought had already arisen in Cao Ren's mind.

Although Yuan Tan had few soldiers, he relied on the bravery of the chief general, Yuan Tan himself, and the sharpness of the alloy steel knife in the hands of the thousand cavalrymen.

Facing the encirclement of the ten thousand fresh troops, except for being rushed back a dozen steps at the beginning because of the small number of people.

For the rest of the time, he was completely suppressing the soldiers of Cao Ying, relying on Cao Ren's strict military management.

That's why they were not dispersed by Yuan Tan's personal soldiers.

But now, Yuan Tan actually abandoned the good situation on the top of the city and led the crowd to retreat!

This abnormal behavior... only means one possibility, that is, the unknown attack under the city wall absolutely exceeded Cao Ren's previous expectations!

Not even the city walls are safe, so Yuan Tan will withdraw from the battlefield as quickly as possible to avoid the possible aftermath!

"Could it be some Thunderbolt car?"

Cao Ren stared at the bottom of the city wall, Gao Lanbu's movements, his eyes were full of confusion.

With such a powerful weapon, Cao Ren could only think of the Thunderbolt Car as a possibility.

After the Battle of Guandu, Yuan Tan seemed to have imitated a thunderbolt car that was even better than theirs. Cao Yingzhong had also heard rumors about this.

When Yuan Tan attacked Xiliang, the thunderbolt car gave Yuan Tan's army a great advantage.

But the problem is, regardless of the shape and size of the thunderbolt car, it is absolutely impossible for Gao Lan to push it directly under the city wall like it is now!

Just when Cao Ren was in a daze.

The mystery is finally revealed!

Gao Lan aimed at Yuan Tan and him, who had been staring at the central section of the north city wall of Shouchun for a long time, and confirmed that this section of the city wall was blown down.

It will not affect Yuan Tan, who has evacuated to the edge of the north city wall at this moment.

Gao Lan no longer had any worries in his eyes, and swung his right hand fiercely!

As early as the craftsman camp had just built the tiger squatting cannon, the soldiers who followed Jiang Qi and studied the method of firing the tiger squatting cannon.

Quickly push the solid ammunition into the chamber one by one, and then follow Gao Lan's order.

Light the lead!

"I don't know how powerful the solid bullets that the major general admires are so powerful."

Gao Lan covered his eyes with his hands as a curtain, looked at the Shouchun city wall in the distance, and muttered to himself.

However, as soon as the words fell, Gao Lan's originally calm face changed drastically!
boom!
Boom boom boom boom!
At first, it was just a bang.

But immediately afterward, [-] rounds of solid ammunition from the Tiger Crouching Cannon successively bombed the area in the middle of the north wall of Shouchun City without stopping for a moment!
Less ammunition, so better steel used on the blade!

Yuan Tan also thought about the method of scattering, but with twenty solid bullets, no matter how densely Cao Ren's defenders stand.

If [-] ammunition were thrown in, it could cause thousands of casualties, which is already quite a feat.

It may be possible to temporarily make Cao Ying lose control, but once Cao Ren reacts, the next Shouchun attack and defense may fall into an even more tragic street fighting.

For Yuan Tan, this was absolutely intolerable.

He can accept less than [-] casualties to conquer a strong city.

But once street fighting broke out, the number of casualties was beyond Yuan Tan's control.

Even in the end, Shouchun City can be conquered quickly, which can be filled with [-] Xuzhou troops.

It is very likely that in the end, if you can leave yourself with [-] battle-ready soldiers, it will be regarded as a soldier's life, and Cao Jun is terrified.

But... once the city wall of Shouchun, the tiger crouching cannons that were gathered together, were blown down in one fell swoop!
The shock caused by that, and the subsequent impact, are much greater than simply breaking through a section of the city wall!

Because... the Shouchun city that was destroyed and the complete Shouchun city are two completely different concepts!
The Shouchun city wall was destroyed. Even if Cao Ren wanted to fight again, he would consider more.

For example, the city wall of Shouchun City has been breached, even if it is lucky to drive out the Yuan Tan tribe who invaded the city.

The remaining dilapidated Shouchun City must also be unable to resist the follow-up army attack in Hebei, and Shouchun City, which has lost its role as a bridgehead.

It was no longer worth it for Cao Ren to waste all his remaining [-] men on the battlefield.

Instead, he directly led the remaining soldiers and horses to Cao Ying and established the southern line of defense along Chenliu-Xuchang-Runan.

Prepare for the next battle between Cao Ying and Hebei.

Be more useful.

And Cao Ren's reaction did not exceed Yuan Tan's expectations!
After the northern city wall was blown down for a while!
Huang Zhong and Pang De, who had already been behind Gao Lan's department and were ready, reacted quickly after a brief shock.

"I didn't expect the major general to prepare such an artifact!"

The shock in the second general's heart was like that of Cao Ren on the top of the wall at this moment, and it couldn't be more shocking.

However, compared to the bitterness in Cao Ren's heart, the two were joyful and enthusiastic, urging the soldiers behind them to walk along the section of the city wall that was blasted away by the tiger crouching cannon.

Launched the final fierce attack towards Shouchun City!

"General! What shall we do?!"

"How to do?"

At this moment, Cao Ren only felt that his lips were full of bitterness. He had calculated thousands of times, but he never thought that Yuan Tan would conjure up such a terrifying siege weapon.

Until now, Cao Ren only felt a buzzing sound in his mind. He didn't even know what methods the enemy used when attacking the city.

What can only be seen clearly are twenty unknown weapons, like long pipes, suddenly spewing out twenty streams of fire.

After hitting the wall of Shouchun city.

I am proud of myself, the Shouchun city wall I built is like paper paste, all of them are broken!

"With such an artifact, how should we defend next!"

Cao Ren was already a bit out of his wits.

Maybe Yuan Tan didn't even think that his tiger crouching cannon really shocked Cao Ren as expected.

It's just that the shock seemed a bit too much, so that Cao Ren's fighting spirit was completely lost.

In fact, this can't be blamed on Cao Ren, whose mind is not firm.

It is really the appearance of the tiger crouching cannon, which is too epoch-making, and its power is too shocking.

That is to say, if Cao Ren was here, anyone with a little less will would think that Yuan Tan used some kind of immortal technique.

The sky thunder was triggered and bombarded on the wall of Shouchun City, which caused such a terrifying effect!

"Iron Fire Melting City! My destiny is mine, the whole army! Attack! Be sure to kill Cao Ren here!"

Just when Cao Ren was in a daze and didn't know what to do.

However, Yuan Tan had already directly urged the Overlord Breaking Heaven Halberd in his hand, and slammed it to the ground, using it as a fulcrum.

The whole person was like a big roc, jumping into the air with joy, and in a blink of an eye, he fell into the army formation of Cao Ying, and shouted angrily!

Then he led the remaining [-] pro-riders, like a tide, toward Cao Ying's army, overwhelming them!
