He continued to order calmly: "Everyone, stop being alarmed and bring up the burning oil and boiling water."

As soon as the order came out.

I saw pots of scalding boiling water put in iron buckets and carried over by many soldiers.

The order is passed down.

I saw buckets of boiling water pouring down the ladder hooked to the wall.

All of a sudden.

Waves of roaring sounds continued to resound.

One after another, the soldiers who were climbing were hit by the scalding boiling water. Their hands holding the ladder were instantly scalded to swollen and blistered, and some even had their faces burned to the point of being completely burned.

Slide straight down to the ground.

Under the offensive of Boishui, the offensive of Sergeant Cao's tenacious soldiers was stalled.

Although the boiling water was not enough to kill Cao Jun on the spot.

But after being hit by the scalding water, he completely lost his combat effectiveness.

And under the car rushing offensive on the other side.

"Boom~"

There was a sound of cannons being struck by giant dragons.

I saw that every impact of the car on the door would leave a mark on the door.

The defenders on Wubao also seemed to be shaken.

Seeing such an offensive, if we ignore it, I am afraid that the door will be broken down sooner or later.

In addition, the slower-moving manhole barriers behind them also arrived belatedly.

The height of the several-foot-high manhole railing was far higher than the height inside Wu Bao.

The crossbowman on the well railing fired arrows from a high position.

It even makes it impossible for enemy troops to hide.

He could clearly see the Wu army on Wubao.

The suppressed firepower of bursts of arrows also reduced the pressure on the other soldiers in the attack.

Especially the siege engines hit the city gates crazily and unscrupulously.

However, under Lu Meng's command, fierce fire oil fell down one after another and fell on the rush car.

Accompanied by the fire arrows that had been prepared long ago.

How can a car made of wood withstand it?

In an instant, it was ignited by fire and burned blazingly.

In an instant, the car was destroyed in the fire.

Also dissipated together were, of course, the soldiers of Cao Cao who were in the car and were blocked by the fire and had no time to escape from the ring of fire.

The air was filled with a burning stench, and the unyielding wails of the soldiers before they died disappeared together.

Seeing that the rush car was successfully destroyed, Wu Jun had already poured buckets of ice water on the fire that was about to reach the gate.

To prevent the fire from spreading to the city gate and burning it down with it.

The offensives of ladder trucks and siege engines were contained one after another.

Even though at this moment the well railing was suppressing the Wu crossbowmen with their unparalleled height and unable to raise their heads, the most critical siege weapon was missing.

Cao Jun's momentum to break through Wu Fort with an unrelenting offensive was also stopped.

The fight lasted for a while.

Seeing Ruxu Wu under the Wu people's defense, it was almost as if it was impregnable, with no flaws.

When Cao Cao, who was watching the battle situation on the high slope behind, saw this, the worry on his brows couldn't help but become stronger.

Is Jiangdong so difficult to conquer?

He was defeated in Hanzhong County in the previous campaign, which greatly reduced the morale of the army.

The purpose of this southern expedition was to revitalize the country.

Before the Southern Expedition, he was also full of confidence and thought that defeating Wu would not be difficult.

And it prompted him to have such a strong belief in winning.

It was also due to the previous Battle of Hefei that our side defeated more than 100,000 invading enemies with only the defenders of Hefei.

So much so that he underestimated the fighting power of the Wu people.

Now after many fierce battles, Cao Cao came to the conclusion that the Wu people were good at fighting, and perhaps the previous battle was just influenced by the coach's factors!

Seeing that Wu could not be defeated, but his own side suffered a lot of casualties, he knew that there was no point in continuing to fight. He thought for a while and had no choice but to order his troops to retreat slowly and not to do anything else.
