"Woo..."

The low horn sounded outside Dingtao City. At first, it was only to the north. Then, the east and west cities also sounded. After a while, the sky-shaking drums also sounded, and then the shouts of the soldiers also sounded like thunder.

Tens of thousands of people shouted in unison, causing the tens of thousands of Cao Jun at the head of the city to be disgraced. Seeing the situation of the city leaders, Ren Jun sneered and said: "If only these tens of thousands of people can take the city down. , Then let’s guard a fart city. Can’t we just yell at Luoyang City with dozens of people?"

When the audience heard it, they all laughed.

A school lieutenant even yelled: "The prefect is reasonable. The little turtles of the Eastern Army really thought that the several-foot-high walls of the Taocheng City were not a decoration. Besides, the city can be paid back. There are tens of thousands of us soldiers. If you want to chew this Dingtao City, it depends on whether he has such a good mouth."

When the soldier next to him heard it, his face looked much better.

Seeing this situation, Ren Jun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and the two armies had already made a move in their silence.

The battle above the ground is going on like a fire, and several meters below the ground, thousands of people are also busy constantly, like busy ants, carrying baskets of soil out of the ground, and then again Carry the huge woods into the tunnel and make a good support.

The closer you get to the city wall, the more cautious the Dugu brothers are, because their tunnel will soon reach the bottom of the moat. If one is not careful at this time, it is likely to cause water seepage, and the world will give up all previous efforts. , It is also possible that all the thousands of diggers in this tunnel will be thrown here. You know, these years, their brothers have only compiled five thousand diggers. Even if a tunnel collapses, almost a thousand soldiers will All killed.

On the surface, it seems that the Diggers should be easy to supplement, but in fact it is not. The selection of these soldiers has very strict requirements. One is that they should not be too tall, and it is inconvenient to move in the tunnel. The second is that the arm strength must be strong, and the requirements for the arm strength for excavation and transportation are very high. Another point is to be careful and able to distinguish the subtle differences between various soil qualities.

Suddenly, a low voice awakened Dugu Ba: "School Lieutenant, come and see." It was a captain in charge of this tunnel.

Duguba quickly stepped forward and looked in the direction of Du Lieutenant's fingers. He could tell at a glance that the soil there was wetter than the one below, and his heart moved, it seemed that he had reached the position of the moat.

Taking a pickaxe from a soldier, Duguba carefully planed under the place with care and hope. After a while, he breathed a sigh of relief and handed the pickaxe to the soldier, looking back at the captain. Said: "From here, dig another three feet underground. Remember to reinforce this place."

"Subordinates understand!" Du Wei replied;

"Okay, I'll leave it to you here. I would have a look at several other places." As he said, he walked back without looking back under the guards of a few personal guards, since the tunnel has been dug to the moat. Next, then the other two should be about the same, he must read them one by one and he will feel relieved.

In the following time, Duguba and his younger brother inspected the other two tunnels and made sure that they had dug safely under the moat, and then returned to the camp with confidence. At this time, it will be dark for another hour. The sky had begun to darken slowly, which meant that the soldiers and horses attacking the city were about to gather their troops back to the camp.

Seeing Brother Dugu coming in, Huangfu Chaobo said, "How's the local situation?"

"Return to the lord, all three tunnels have been dug under the moat. They can definitely be dug into the city before dark tomorrow, and the passage can be opened to enter the city at any time."

"Okay, come here, give orders to General Zhang and General Huang that the army will continue to harass* the defenders in the city tonight, and continue to increase their siege efforts tomorrow."

Chuanling soldiers immediately led their orders. The reason for saying this is that Huangfu Chaobo wanted to confirm how many soldiers and horses there are in the city. Judging from the current situation, the number of soldiers and horses in the city should be around 20,000, but I saw Cao Cao until now. So far, there has been no sign of sending troops to support, and Huangfu Chaobo has no bottom in his heart.

Without the support of intelligence, Pang Tong's trio were also very clever and could not cook without rice. They could only speculate on the battle situation of the defenders in the city. However, judging from the situation of the war today, no one found anything unusual, so Huangfu was super talented. With constant harassment at night, the decision to continue to increase the offensive efforts tomorrow.

In Dingtao City, Ren Jun was gathering generals for discussion. Today’s battle was obviously much stronger than the previous few days. By the afternoon, Ren Jun had already begun to transfer his army to the city to support the battle in the city, but now Huangfu Chaobo's most elite soldiers and horses have not yet been dispatched, so Ren Jun does not intend to expose the ten thousand troops of the backbone camp too soon.

At this moment, the sound of drums resounded outside the city, which was particularly obvious on this silent night. All the generals of Cao Cao's army stood up immediately and looked outside. Soon, a soldier came in and reported: "The army of the Eastern Expeditionary Army outside the city suddenly launched an attack on the city wall, but it was almost near the moat. I retreated."

Ren Jun listened and waved his hand to signal the soldiers to retreat, but he looked in the direction of Zhongxiao. It was only two hours later, and he did not expect that the strategy of conquering the enemy would start. This action will only happen later, and it seems that tomorrow's war will be more intense.

Thinking of this, Ren Jun said to his own soldier Du Li: "Has the messenger for the lord set out?"

"After dark, we have arranged for them to cross the river and leave."

"Everyone, it seems that tomorrow’s war will be more intense, and we have to be prepared. According to the order of the prefect, the number of soldiers and horses on duty tonight will be doubled, and the Sanyo Army and the headquarters will rest under the city, ready to be prepared. Support the city and prevent the East Army from attacking the city overnight."

Having said this, Ren Jun turned his head to look at the main battalion leader Xu Hong and said, "General Xu, please prepare the stalwart camp for the battle of tomorrow."

"The final commander!" When everyone heard this, they all rushed to promise.

Almost when Ren Jun called for the generals to discuss matters, Cao Cao of Changyi also received Dingtao's military report. Looking at the battle report written by Ren Jun, Cao Cao said to Sima Yi: "Huangfu Chaobo has begun to attack Dingtao. I should have obtained information from Qingzhou and want to come around Wei and save Zhao."

After that, Cao Cao handed the battle report to Xun Yu, and after he had read it, he handed it to Sima Yi. Sima Yi took the battle report, read it carefully, and said: "It looks like this should be the case, but I don’t know that Langya Army and What's going on with General Charlie?"
