Bang!

Zhao Kuangyin's dragon stick hit the wall, and a whole wall pile was broken and stones were sputtered!

Xiahou Yuan gritted his teeth, held the big knife, and crazily blocked Zhao Kuangyin's fierce attack.

"Thirty-six Styles of Panlong Stick!"

Zhao Kuangyin knew that the other party was Xiahou Yuan, and he fought with Xiahou Yuan with all his strength. The Panlong stick swept across the board, opened and closed, and actually suppressed Xiahou Yuan.

"Zhao Kuangyin, our Wei army has no grudges and your Song army, so why do we seek death!"

Xiahou Yuan waved his big sword, and the sword light churned, fighting to the death to resist Zhao Kuangyin.

The town guarded by Xiahou Yuan was attacked by Zhao Kuangyin's Song army and was surrounded by enemies.

Xiahou Yuan did not expect that Zhao Kuangyin would lead the army to attack himself, and Zhao Kuangyin's force was still above him.

"Xiahou Yuan, if you serve me, I can spare your life!"

Zhao Kuangyin defeated Xiahou Yuan and wanted to subdue this powerful general of Cao Wei and use it for his own use.

Just relying on Zhao Kuangyin's own team is not enough to compete for the Central Plains.

"Don't think about it!"

Xiahou Yuan was united with swords and a strong sword spirit. He fought with Zhao Kuangyin and was never willing to surrender to Zhao Kuangyin.

"The North City Gate has been broken by me, Pan Mei!"

Pan Mei led a team of Song troops to break through the north gate while taking advantage of the chaos. The Song troops equipped with large numbers of infantry armor and divine arm bows entered the town, like an iron armored army, occupying the streets and alleys.

"not good!"

When Xiahou Yuan saw the Song army entering the city, he knew that the situation was hopeless, so he had to flee in panic.

Only more than 10,000 Wei troops stationed in this town fled, and the rest of the Wei troops either died or surrendered.

The towns around Xuchang were attacked by the three major princes and quickly fell.

Forty-five thousand troops are at the city!

"Report! In the northeast, 150,000 Song troops marched straight in, and General Xiahou was defeated!"

"Report! In the southwest direction, 150,000 Qi troops are approaching Xuchang, and Yingyang Town is besieged by Qi troops!"

"Report! In the southeast direction, 150,000 Jin troops have appeared outside Xuchang City!"

Cao Cao gathered troops in Xuchang City, three princes and 450,000 troops, and has formed an encirclement!

"When Fengxiao and the three princes of the three families attack, I'm afraid I'm no longer able to defend Xuchang."

Cao Cao summoned many famous generals such as Dian Wei, Zhang He, Le Jin, Xiahou Dun, Guo Huai, and Cao Zhen, all waiting for Cao Cao's orders.

It’s just that Cao Cao seemed to have lost confidence in himself.

If Cao Cao had to deal with any of the three princes, he would have confidence and not be at a disadvantage.

Cao Cao could even barely deal with two of them, such as Nurhaci and Sima Yi joining forces, and Cao Cao did not suffer much.

But Zhao Kuangyin, Sima Yi, Gao Huan, and the three princes joined forces and attacked again suddenly, and Cao Cao could not think of how to defeat the enemy.

Fortunately, Cao Cao left a way out for himself in advance.

Liu Ye, a strategist under Cao Cao, had already been ordered to go to Hebei in advance to negotiate with Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu.

"The soldiers of the three families have a total of 450,000 troops. This is the destruction of national-level troops. It is indeed difficult to resist by our soldiers alone. The only one who can come to save us in time is the troops of the six Central Plains Towns established by Zhang Hua. But even if Zhang Hua rescues us, Zhang Hua will annex us..."

Guo Jia quickly analyzes the current situation Cao Cao is facing.

In any case, Cao Cao's forces were besieged by the three princes and were almost defeated.

"I was originally a Han minister and never became emperor. Emperor Guangwu promised to be appointed as Qiao Gong. If I don't blame him, I'd better go and join him."

Cao Cao had many famous generals, but facing the three giants in the Central Plains, Cao Cao knew he was defeated and decided to clean up his soft and run away.

It was winter and the Yellow River was frozen. Cao Cao could have led his troops across the Yellow River and defected to Emperor Guangwu.

With Emperor Guangwu's luck, he could suppress Yuan Shao and Cao Cao.

Many civil and military officials of Cao Cao's power also regarded themselves as Han officials. They did not object to Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu, who defected to the Eastern Han Dynasty, and even supported Cao Cao's decision.

Resigning to Liu Xiu does not affect their status, and Liu Xiu's situation is much better than Cao Cao.

As the overlord of Hebei, Liu Xiu had few princes in the world who could surpass Liu Xiu.

In contrast, Cao Cao was sandwiched among several princes of the Central Plains and was still hostile to Sima Yi, and his situation was not easy.

The 120,000 Wei troops in Xuchang City were about to abandon Xuchang and retreat to the north, the three troops formed an encirclement of Xuchang from all directions!

The Song army, Qi army, and Jin army gathered under Xuchang city!

Xiahou Yuan, Li Dian, Yu Jin, Cao Ren and other peripheral guards knew that Xuchang City was in danger, so they abandoned the outer town and led their troops back to Xuchang to meet with Cao Cao.

The number of Wei troops in Xuchang reached 170,000.

However, compared with the 450,000 army outside the city, Cao Cao's 170,000 people were a little less.

Zhao Kuangyin, Gao Huan, and Sima Yi met successfully under Xuchang City.

"Sima Zhongda, I didn't expect you to hire this person again."

Zhao Kuangyin discovered that Sima Yi had a peerless general, Wang Yanzhang, a powerful general from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Zhao Kuangyin, who also came from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, was not unfamiliar with Wang Yanzhang.

In the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Li Cunxiao had the highest military power, followed by powerful generals such as Xia Luqi, Wang Yanzhang, and Shi Jingsi.

"I paid a considerable price to hire Wang Yanzhang. His lord only asked him to serve me for one month, so I didn't have much time to delay."

Sima Yi spoke out loud.

In order to defeat Cao Cao, Sima Yi did not hesitate to borrow people from the princes of Shandong.

Sima Yi's power had the mighty general Beigong Chun of the Western Liang Dynasty, but Beigong Chun was not enough to fight with the powerful generals under Cao Cao's command. Therefore, Sima Yi spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to hire Wang Yanzhang to serve for one month.

In a month, it costs tens of thousands of taels of silver, which shows Wang Yanzhang's weight.

Even so, Wang Yanzhang's lord was not very willing to lend Wang Yanzhang.

Gao Huan said: "There is no need to talk nonsense now. Surrender Xuchang as soon as possible, otherwise the Xia army would react, and it would be too late."

"Okay! We will divide our troops into three groups to attack the city!"

Zhao Kuangyin, Sima Yi and Gao Huan have been planning for a long time and are already at the city, so they immediately set out to attack.

Zhao Kuangyin led dozens of Song army generals including Zhao Guangyi, Pan Mei, Cao Bin to attack the North Gate.

Sima Yi led dozens of Jin generals, including Sima Shi, Wang Yanzhang, Beigong Chun, Yang Hu, Du Yu, etc., and attacked the Nanmen.

Gao Huan commanded dozens of Qi generals, including Gao Aocao, Gao Changgong, Huluguang, Duan Shao, etc., and attacked Ximen.

Woo--

The tragic trumpet echoed in Xuchang City, and the three soldiers attacked Xuchang quickly with simple flying ladders.

In the Central Plains region, an unprecedented tragic siege war broke out.

There were hundreds of famous generals fighting between the two sides, with a total of more than 600,000 soldiers and horses!

All the six towns in the Central Plains established by Zhang Hua were alarmed by this extraordinary battle.

Zhang Xutuo, who was guarding Ruzhou, Fan Zhongyan, who was guarding the chief of the chief, Li Ji, who was guarding Daliang, and the commanders of the three major legions immediately ordered martial law.

The Jinyiwei had already learned in advance that the princes of the Central Plains were summoning troops.

Originally they thought that the princes of the Central Plains would join forces to invade.

But it was hard for Zhang Xutuo, Fan Zhongyan and Li Ji to imagine that Cao Cao was attacked.

"Gao Huan, Sima Yi, and... Zhao Kuangyin, this is about to start cleaning up the market."

At this time, Fan Zhongyan saw through the intentions of the three princes.

The three princes took the lead in destroying Cao Cao. The next step is likely to be to capture the six towns in the Central Plains established by Zhang Hua, completely clear the field, and then the three princes defeated the male and female. The winner was the overlord of the Central Plains.

The Northern Song Dynasty minister Fan Zhongyan was not very willing to fight with Song Taizu Zhao Kuangyin, but at this time the two sides had a conflict of positions, and Fan Zhongyan was also in a dilemma.

When the Xia army responded, Xuchang's offense and defense had become fierce.

Cao Cao had many famous generals under his command, but he had to face military generals from three dynasties!

Sima Yi also paid a big price to hire Wang Yanzhang, the fierce general of the Liang Dynasty, to help the battle!

Wang Yanzhang led heavy armored infantry to attack the city, and suppressed Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan with one and two!

"Hahaha, Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, we meet again!"

Wang Yanzhang swung the iron spear in his hand, took the lead in climbing the city, attacking Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan without any disadvantage.

"It's this monster again..."

Xiahou Dun's one-eyed eyes showed a hint of fear.

Wang Yanzhang had amazing force and used his own strength to challenge Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan, so that Xiahou Dun, Xiahou Yuan could not destroy the Jin army, Xiahou Dun, and Xiahou Yuan who had climbed the city could not help but be anxious.
