Chapter 239 Bloody Battle of An Feng Seven

Wu Jun's attack did not stop all night long, but the effect of the attack was unsatisfactory. During the day's attack, Wu Jun could occasionally break through the defense line in a small area and rush to the city. But throughout the night, not a single Wu soldier could

After completing the breakthrough, most of the Wu soldiers were shot to death, wounded or crushed to death during the climb. Judging from the fighting throughout the night, it seemed that the Wu soldiers were here to kill people.

This is first related to the difficulty of siege at night. For the defenders, there is basically no difference between day and night. Even if there is some difference, it is minimal and does not affect the defense effect at all.

But it was different for those who were attacking the city. It was completely dark, and the eyes could not see anything. Even if there were some obstacles and traps along the way, they could not see them. Many people lost their lives because of this.

In fact, if you want to attack, you must light a torch for lighting. After lighting, it is equivalent to exposing your position to the Wei army. The archers of the Wei army hiding in the darkness can launch a sneak attack with cold arrows. The Wu soldiers move forward holding the torch, which is equivalent to

Set up a living target for others.

Secondly, the morale of the Wu army plummeted, and they were no longer as high-spirited as they had been during the previous attack. No matter how brave and brave the Danyang soldiers were, they were also humans, not machines, and they would always get tired and weak.

Zhuge Ke was self-willed and did not respect the military strength. He tried to use the flesh and blood of Wu soldiers to build a road of revenge. However, under the strong Anfeng City, it was in vain no matter how many corpses of Wu soldiers were piled up.

Compared with the sluggishness of the Wu Army, the Zhengnan Army's defense was orderly and watertight. The "three shifts" tactical strategy arranged by Cao Liang made the Zhengnan Army not feel tired at all, and fought at full strength all night long. Wu Jun

In front of them, you can't get the slightest advantage.

After being surrounded by Anfengdu, the Southern Conquest Army fought a particularly difficult battle. In order to break out of the encirclement, they fought desperately. In the end, they suffered more than half of their casualties. Many familiar comrades from Paoze were not able to walk out of the forest in the end.

This battle left an unforgettable and painful experience for the Conquering South Army. All the survivors had a heart for revenge, and avenging their brothers who died was their greatest long-cherished wish.

Of course, this was only their deepest wish. In the Battle of Anfengdu, the Conquering South Army suffered heavy losses, and revenge seemed very far away.

But they didn't expect that just two days later, they would have the opportunity to face off against the Wu people again, and they would rely on the city to overlook their opponents from a high position.

This battle was a hearty battle for the Conquering South Army. When they pulled the bow strings, they all felt a sense of revenge. The screams that the Wu soldiers had made beforehand seemed to them like the most beautiful music.

, can comfort the souls of those comrades who died in battle.

Cao Liang only stayed up for the first half of the night. By the second half of the night, he was too sleepy. After all, Cao Liang fought side by side with Wang Ji during the day and never rested at all.

However, the fighting status of the Zhengnan Army made him feel relieved. Even if Cao Liang went to bed, he could still sleep soundly. As long as he followed this method of fighting, Wu Jun would not be able to break through Anfeng City no matter how hard he tried.

When leaving the city, Cao Liang specifically told Ren Lan to abide by the battle plan of three shifts every two or three hours, so that the Wei soldiers would have sufficient time to rest and maintain sufficient physical strength and high spirits.

Fighting spirit.

This is very important, because Wu Jun's attack cannot be just for this day and night. In the next few days or even longer, Wu Jun's attack will be continuous. Wei Jun must be prepared for long-term operations.

.

Cao Liang remembered that the longest city defense battle in history was the Diaoyu City in the Southern Song Dynasty. It actually held on for thirty-six years. Until the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, the city had not fallen. It was a miracle in the history of war.

.

However, the Battle of Anfeng could not last that long. Not to mention that there were reinforcements from Sima Yi in Huaibei. Even if he was a hundred reluctant, he could not stand still. Due to the pressure from the court, Sima Yi finally

They will cross the Huaihe River and attack Huainan.

Even if Sima Yi can't count on it, Cao Liang doesn't believe that the Wu army's hundreds of thousands of troops can persist for a long time. After all, the huge logistical supplies required for the battle are not something that the Wu army can bear for a long time. The larger the army, the greater the scope of the battle.

And the time will be shorter. As long as Anfeng City can hold on for a period of time, the Wu army will naturally be unable to resist and will eventually retreat on its own.

The war is about logistics, food, grass, baggage, and ordnance supplies. These are the foundation of an army. In order to plan this attack, Sun Quan must have been planning for a long time. With the national power of Wu, he could support an army of 200,000 in a short time.

There is no problem with the supplies, but as time goes by, I'm afraid it may become unbearable.

Anfeng City is different. Generally, an important border town like Anfeng has extremely sufficient grain reserves, at least for more than half a year. Even if more than 15,000 people are added to the Southern Army, Anfeng City guarantees

There is no pressure on the supply of food and grass for two or three months.

Just such a long time is enough to bring down the Wu army.

Cao Liang left the city with the first group of conquering southern troops who ascended the city. The ones who took over the battle were the Wei soldiers from the Xiaoqi Battalion and the Guerrilla Battalion.

Naturally, you cannot ride horses when fighting in the city. The Xiaoqi battalion abandoned their horses and climbed into the city at this time. Naturally, they cannot be compared in terms of combat effectiveness. However, the fighting spirit of the Xiaoqi battalion did not slacken because of the loss of the horse. On the contrary, the morale of the Xiaoqi battalion was high. Under Wen Qin's

Under his leadership, they filed into the city and took over the defense.

With Wen Qin here, Cao Liang naturally felt more at ease. Wen Qin had always been known for his calmness and magnanimity, and was very good at commanding the army. It would be best for him to assist Ren Lan in defending the city.

Cao Liang said a few words to Wen Qin, Wen Qin immediately nodded in agreement, and Cao Liang left with peace of mind.

After returning to the station of the Conquering South Army, Cao Liang slept peacefully and peacefully. He really slept soundly. Even the loud sound of killings on the top of the city did not affect his good dreams.

When Cao Liang woke up in the morning, he found that the deafening shouts of killing at the top of the city had disappeared and became silent. Cao Liang wondered whether Zhuge Ke had changed his character and actually suspended the siege. In this way

, Zhuge Ke’s hard work that day and night, wasn’t it all in vain?

Cao Liang quickly got up and rushed to the top of the city. On the way, he met Wang Ji who had rested for the night. Wang Ji had obviously recovered a lot and his face was radiant. He also heard the news about the top of the city.
