Chapter 556
Five days later, it was late at night.
East of Fufeng City, inside the Han camp.
In the central army tent, all the generals gathered.
Liu Bei sat on the throne, drinking warm wine one cup after another, but he didn't say a word.
Although he didn't say anything, the generals could feel that there would be a big battle tonight.
And this battle would probably determine the ownership of Fufeng City.
Footsteps sounded, and the curtain was lifted.
Deng Ai rushed into the tent and bowed:
"Your Majesty, we have dug the tunnel according to the Prime Minister's instructions, and we can act tonight."
Hearing Deng Ai's words, the tent was suddenly like a pot of boiling water, and all the generals of the 12th Han Army were excited.
"The tunnel was dug so quickly?"
Liu Bei's eyes lit up, and a look of surprise flashed across his face.
Deng Mu smiled faintly and said:
"Your Majesty, Shi Zai has always been efficient and efficient. After so many years, don't you understand?"
Liu Bei suddenly realized, so he laughed and praised Deng Ai.
Then he put down the wine glass in his hand, stood up, and said sternly:
"All generals, listen to the order, the whole army will leave the camp and gather at the east gate of Fufeng!"
As soon as the order was passed down, all the generals were excited.
Soon, the gate of the Han camp opened wide.
Thousands of Han soldiers left the camp like a tide and gathered east of Fufeng.
The Han army soldiers were all holding their breath at this moment, wishing to kill all the Wei army in Fufeng City and vent their anger for the torture they suffered the day before by the snow and wind.
At dusk.
Nearly 200,000 Han troops gathered east of Fufeng.
On the wilderness, the battle flags were waving, boundless.
The swords and spears were like a forest, reflecting the frightening cold light, changing the color of the sky and the earth.
Inside Fufeng City.
Cao Cao learned that the Han army was going to attack the city, and he rushed to the top of the city without having time to eat dinner.
Ma Chao, Jia Xu, Sima Yi and others also rushed to the top of the east gate.
At this time, Cao Cao was still in anxiety.
After all, Jia Xu had miscalculated before, and did not expect that the Han army had prepared enough winter clothes to avoid the unprecedented drop in temperature.
Now that the Han army has survived the snowstorm and their morale has been revived, they suddenly came to attack the city in a large scale, which inevitably made Cao Cao worried. (To read the novels of Bao Shuang, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
When Cao Cao climbed up the tower, he looked around and felt a chill in his heart.
Two hundred thousand troops!
Looking at the formation of the Han army, Liu Bei has assembled nearly two hundred thousand troops this time. It is clear that he is going to use all the troops in the country to capture Fufeng City in one go.
This is bound to be a fierce battle!
Cao Cao's feet shook slightly, and he took a few steps back, showing a bit of panic in his expression.
"Meng Qi, whether we can defend Fufeng City depends on you!"
"Tell me, you can definitely defend Fufeng!"
Cao Cao expectedXu looked at Ma Chao.
With all the generals of Cao Wei dead or wounded, Ma Chao, a general from Xiliang, became one of the few generals he could rely on. 853
Now facing the massive attack of the Han army, he could only hope that Ma Chao could defend the city for him.
Ma Chao bowed and said generously:
"Your Majesty, rest assured. With me here, Liu Bei doesn't need to worry!"
"Don't mention that he only has 200,000 troops. Even if he mobilizes all the troops in the country to fight, I will definitely keep Fufeng!"
Ma Chao patted his chest and boasted in front of Cao Cao.
Cao Cao was relieved, and his face regained confidence. He sneered and glanced at the Han army outside the city. []
"Liu Bei, if you have the ability, just let your horses attack!"
"I have Ma Mengqi, I still have 40,000 troops, and I still have the fortified city of Fufeng!"
"I just don't believe you can break through!".
