The Cao army's posture today is a bit different. Although the Cao army attacks the walls of Dang County every day, they often set up a formation and attack with expedition troops for a while, and then gathers and moves like an exercise. Then they beat drums and then withdraw back to the camp for dinner. But today it is different. The Cao army sets up a formation in the east and south directions of Dang County. The number of long-range troops is several times that of usual. The huge rocks and giant crossbows that cover the sky and the sun fly into the city, like splashing water.

Then, amid the dense sound of war drums, the infantry corps of Cao's army arranged neatly square formations and began to advance in two thousand units, followed by well railings, siege cars and siege ladders and other large equipment. It seems that Cao Cao was playing the game today.

"Order the Ninth Catalog Team to replace the oil tanks! Order the Tenth Catalog Team to replace the fireballs, and attack freely after a volley!"

"promise!"

"Order the Inhuman Army to prepare a round of skill volleys!"

"promise!"

"The heavy crossbow troops are in charge of the division according to the predetermined area!"

Pang Yuan's order was passed down like flowing water. The war machine composed of the defenders of Dang County and the players began to run with full force. Huge rocks flew around the city, arrows were like locusts, shouting and killing on the city and under the city, splattering blood, the skills of the explosion flashed, and the burning large equipment emitted a strong light under the very gloomy sky covered by flying objects all over the sky.

This is the battlefield of flesh and blood!

"Please pay attention to recovering blood! The less blood comes back!"

"Don't be stingy with paper talismans, throw them down!"

"Keep the formation. Don't lose the bonus!"

The strangers on the city wall are all rich players, and they know that the most important thing on the battlefield is discipline. With discipline, there is a battle formation. With a battle formation, there is a guarantee of victory.

However, the players under the city are not bad. They are marshalled in the battle formation of Cao's army and placed in the infantry legion in the form of squads. They can also rely on the formation to exert their strong combat power and toughness, especially the ability to deliver damage output. The paper talisman and skill volley of the alien are indeed a big killer.

"Sir, Cao's army is gathering outside the city wall to the west!"

"Oh. It seems that Cao Cao decided that the general would not appear."

Pang Yuan's mouth slightly raised, which was not difficult. As long as the mission was distributed, it would be difficult for Lu Bu to raid with enough players around the battlefield. Moreover, Lu Bu is really not around Dang County now, so Cao Cao seized this opportunity and wanted to attack with all his might. He captured Dang County in one fell swoop.

Seeing the endless enemy troops lined up under the city, rushing up like a tide, Pang Yuan had to admire Cao Cao's decisiveness. It was not impossible to want Dang County, but it would cost a price!

"Tell all units to fight back with all their might, except the cavalry. All troops will be put into defensive wars, so don't be stingy with supplies. Throw all weapons and paper talismans onto the enemy in the shortest time!"

"promise!"

Cao Cao was on the command car in the back formation, and the command car transformed with a well railing was high enough to take overall charge.

"Lord, the enemy's counterattack is very strong."

Cao Cao shook his head: "Well, I guess I've used the reserve team, which shows that Pang Yuan has already made plans to give up Dang County, but he just wants to kill and injure our army as much as possible!"

"Since that's the case"

"Tell the front army to pay attention to rotating front-line troops, and the central army advances to range as soon as possible to give the front army the greatest support. In addition, give priority to supplementing the aliens to the front line!"

"promise!"

"Lord, will this cause a rebound from Yi Ren?"

"How could this be? This is their own request. When attacking Dang County, Yiren is more active than us!"

Cao Cao said with a smile, but a cold light flashed in his eyes. Xi Zhicai tightened the fur on his body and squinted his eyes to look at the battlefield where the smoke was rolling. The wind was northwest, and the smoke was blown over, which smelled very pungent. Xi Zhicai couldn't help but cough loudly.

"Zhicai, you go down first and be careful!"

"Ahem, it's okay, I'm just choking by the smoke."

On the top of the city, Pang Yuan could see Cao Cao's command car from afar, but unfortunately there was no skill that could attack such a long distance, otherwise it would be the most enjoyable for it.

"Sir, the scouts in the northwest direction of the city will be rewarded. Everything is normal. If you fight with the scouts of the enemy, both sides will be injured."

"Very good, I understand, let them continue to investigate and never slackew."

"promise!"

Zhang Xun, who was standing beside him, frowned, hesitated for a while and asked, "Sir, why should we pay attention to the northwest direction? Is our army planning to evacuate Dang County?"

"Haha, even if you don't evacuate, it's necessary to leave a way out!"

"With Cao's current offensive, if we blindly defend, we may not last long."

"That's right, so we have to leave a way out!"

"But why didn't Cao Cao arrange cavalry here in advance?"

"If that's the case, would you still choose to evacuate?"

Zhang Xun thought for a while and nodded, "I understand that Cao Cao wants Dang County, so he would rather let us go!"

"No, he can still pursue him from behind. If our army's evacuation pass is blocked, Dang County will become a place to fight to the death. This is not a good deal for Cao Cao, and our army is the same. Now is not the best time to fight to the death with Cao's army."

Zhang Xun nodded in convincingly and stopped talking.

The battle has been going on like this. Cao Cao's troops are relatively abundant, and the front-line troops are strongly supported by players, and their combat effectiveness is maintained quite well. From the perspective of the troops' attributes, Cao Cao's troops' bonus is obviously one level higher than Pang Yuan's, which completely offsets the city offensive and defensive bonus brought by Pang Yuan to defend the city. The battle loss ratio between the two sides made Pang Yuan very dissatisfied, but it is no wonder that others are not making Pang Yuan's own force and commander enough? Zhang Xun is obviously not Cao Cao's opponent.

By the evening, the casualties of the Dang County defenders had exceeded 30,000, and the Cao army suffered approximately the same losses, and perhaps even less. What's worse is that there were no reserves in the city to rotate. The defenders' energy and physical strength were almost at their limit, but the Cao army under the city was still rotating easily, maintaining high combat effectiveness and morale.

If the defenders continue to fight like this, the losses of the defenders will be further amplified. Pang Yuan sighed slightly when he saw this, and had to admit that he was not Cao Cao's opponent to put the order.

"The command is sent to the long-range troops concentrate the attack targets at a distance of 300 steps and carry out a rapid fire. The defenders at the top of the city retreat in order, and the cavalry go out of the north gate. Take positions along both sides of the road. The defenders in the south city retreat first, then the east city and the west city!"

"promise!"

"They are going to retreat!" Cao Cao looked at the enemy army that suddenly changed the target of shooting. He said with a little excited as he browed.

"Then Zidan can attack!"

"Yes, let Zidan go around the west city and pursue the enemy. But don't be greedy for merit and make progress. Be careful of the enemy's ambush and counterattack!"

"promise!"

The messenger picked up a horn, and the whimpering horn echoed on the battlefield in the twilight. The cavalry that was originally behind the side moved, and the rumbling hooves were like thunder, and the earth shook with trembling.

"The carriage is on both sides, heavy crossbows are ready, and the cavalry disperses to the periphery, allowing the enemy to rush in!"

Seeing Cao Cao's heavy cavalry appear, Pang Yuan's cavalry took the initiative to move out of the front.

When Cao Zhen's troops saw the enemy cavalry leaving the passage, revealing the carriages and infantry on the road. After hesitating for a moment, he still issued an order to attack!

"High crossbow volley! Let it go!"

Cao Zhen, who was charging, was surprised to find that after the carriages lifted the tarpaulin, there were giant crossbows inside. In a burst of loud noises, thick arrows shot over the tiger and leopard cavalry that were charging in front. It was already very difficult for these heavy cavalry to change direction. Now the war horse in front fell, and immediately implicated one piece. Then various skilled paper talismans from the enemy's opposite army were thrown over, and the charge of the tiger and leopard cavalry was interrupted, and the advantages of the heavy cavalry were gone.

Then, the enemy's heavy crossbow shot, bypassed the heavy cavalry in front, and blasted at the light cavalry following closely behind. The light cavalry that was scattering to both sides was immediately overturned by the people who were shooting.

At this time, the enemy cavalry who had just left the road rushed in from both sides, trying to cut Cao Zhen's formation open. Seeing this, Cao Zhen immediately ordered a turn, turned around in the direction of the enemy's carriage formation, rushed away the enemy's raid from the side, and left the battlefield.

After packing up his troops, the young Cao Zhen couldn't help but wiped his cold sweat. It was so dangerous just now that he thought he could beat the dog in the water, but he was almost beaten by someone accidentally. Heavy cavalry is not an invincible existence. When someone grasps his weakness, infantry can easily restrain the heavy cavalry.

Pang Yuan's retreat was orderly, and the troops retreated out of the battle in an orderly manner. The fierce Cao army chasing behind would be bitten to death by Pang Yuan. After suffering several losses, the brave aliens became honest and could only force Pang Yuan out of Dang County step by step according to Cao Cao's command, and then demolished various traps and ignition traps in the streets and alleys of Dang County. By the time they finished their work, the sky was almost dawn, and Pang Yuan's troops had already run away.

After a little repair, Cao Cao led his elite troops to set out first. After joining Cao Zhen, he followed Pang Yuan's troops and carefully chased him to Yongyang. Then he built a camp under Yongyang City, preparing to attack Yongyang.

Dang County was lost in one day. Although it was beyond everyone's expectations, Lu Bu's troops did not participate in the war at all during this period, which also gave a reasonable explanation for the defeat of Dang County. Besides, everyone was not optimistic about Pang Yuan and Cao Cao's orders, and the result is now reasonable.

Dang County was lost, and Xiayi became an isolated city and could not be held firm. Pang Yuan had already ordered the Xiayi defenders to retreat. In addition, Xiayi and Feng Kingdom also lost the cover of their flanks, and Ju Su was under great pressure. However, Cao Cao's eyes were now staring at Yongyang. Yongyang's strategic position is too important now, and Cao Cao would not give up this and take care of it.

Therefore, after winning Dang County, Cao Cao immediately used Dang County as the support point to increase troops towards the Yongyang Camp and began to prepare for the Yongyang Battle. So where did Lu Bu, who had disappeared from the battlefield in Dang County?

Cao Cao was actually a little nervous. Although he had already prepared for the exchange, it was not until the news was completed that Cao Cao finally put down the huge rock hanging in his heart. (To be continued...)
