"It turned out that Cao Ang left his main force and went to Yuzhang to bring Liu Yao's troops!"

Outside Shu City, Zhou Yu looked at the banners of the 30,000-strong army coming from the south of Jiangdong Army. Then he suddenly realized that his mood sank to the bottom.

Even though Zhou Yu was full of military plans, he never thought that Cao Ang had such a plan. He was brave enough to ride to Yuzhang alone and capture Liu Yao's troops from the hands of Liu Yao, who was seriously ill and was about to die!

After all, in Zhou Yu's opinion, this was a dangerous strategy. Liu Yao also had his own heirs, so he didn't try it! If Liu Yao does not want to pass on his power to his son

, or if Liu Yao dies, Cao Ang will be unable to escape alone. Zhou Yu couldn't help but feel more and more fearful and shocked towards Cao Ang!

What kind of genius is this Cao Zixiu? Why can Sun Ce fail to conquer Liu Yao even after several years

?

Liu Yao's general, Tai Shici, could not be subdued for a long time.

How long had Cao Ang been in Yangzhou?

How could he allow all of Liu Yao's troops, including Tai Shici, to follow him northward?

Zhou Yu took a deep breath and suppressed his shock. He stepped down and looked at Sun Ce, who had an extremely gloomy look on his face, and said,"My lord, you should kill the enemy with good generals and lead Jiangdong's elite troops to leave quickly, otherwise you will be attacked by Cao Ang from both sides!"

The reason why Zhou Yu said this is because for the Jiangdong Army, the situation is not favorable at this moment.

Those thousands of hussars alone cannot be underestimated. Even if the

70,000 Huainan Army is not as good as Jiangdong's elite, they can still fight. Once, Sun Ce's main force in Jiangdong was restrained.

At this time, if Cao Ang led Taishi Ci and other 30,000 Yuzhang troops to attack again, the Jiangdong army would be in danger of being defeated.

After all, outside Shucheng at this moment! , Cao Ang's troops reached more than 100,000, and they were all three organized troops.

However, Sun Ce's troops only had more than 90,000, and only about 50,000 of them were Jiangdong's main force, and the rest were all recent ones.

The Zulang Mountain Shanyue bandits and the private soldiers and recruits of various families in Lujiang County who surrendered in half a month are so mixed and have not yet joined.

It will be fine if the battle goes smoothly.

But if the war goes unfavorably, the newly surrendered people will probably be killed.

They will immediately collapse and disperse!

Zhou Yu suggested that Sun Ce attack Lujiang. He originally wanted to take advantage of Cao Ang to make an established fact before sending troops to Lujiang.

Now that Cao Ang is approaching with force, he should naturally withdraw his troops and not confront him in Shucheng. Fight.

Anyway, half of the Lujiang River south of Shucheng has fallen into Sun Ce's hands. He can retreat temporarily and wait until that half of the county is completely digested before making further calculations.

"Lord, Gong Jin is right, the situation is unfavorable, we should withdraw our troops first!"

On the side, Yu Fan, a counselor from Jiangdong, also agreed with Zhou Yu and suggested withdrawing his troops before Cao Ang's army surrounded them.

Sun Ce looked unhappy when he heard this and said:"Although Cao Ang has moved soldiers and horses from Yuzhang County, Liu Yao's The whole army is just a defeated general under me!

Why worry?

He, Cao Ang, has an army of more than 100,000 here, and I also have nearly 100,000 soldiers and horses!

And I see that the Huainan Army in the north is controlled by Liu Bei. I also know that Liu Bei is more than thirty years old and has accomplished nothing.

He once controlled a whole state in Xuzhou, but his property was taken away from him, so he could only rely on others.

There is no spirit in such a person who has been defeated repeatedly.

Although there are 70,000 troops and horses, only 30,000 soldiers of the Lujiang family can stop it."

"The hussars under the city were also surrounded by an array of bows, crossbows and spears and were unable to charge forward.

Therefore, I have fifty thousand elite troops from Jiangdong, so we can go south to fight Cao Ang!

Fifty thousand versus thirty thousand, I have the advantage!

It only takes a moment to defeat Yuzhang's troops and capture Cao Ang among the thousands of troops!"

When he said this, Sun Ce was high-spirited and very confident.

This is not because Sun Ce is too arrogant, but judging from the current battlefield situation, it is indeed the case.

Without Liu Bei's spirit, the hussars will not move. Under such circumstances, Sun Ce can mobilize 50,000 Jiangdong troops to attack Cao Ang's 30,000 troops in the south.

However, the situation on the battlefield will never change based on one side's will.

For example, at this moment, Sun Ce just wanted to lead 50,000 Jiangdong troops. The main force destroyed Cao Ang first.

The hussars under the city suddenly moved! Under the way of Li Cunxiao and other five tiger generals, the spear formation surrounding the hussars was instantly broken out of a gap.

The crossbowmen had little effect, because when the hussars first charged into the formation, they fired a round of powerful crossbows from a distance.

Most of the thousands of powerful crossbows owned by Chen Wang Liu Chong were equipped by Cao Ang.

Therefore, before the hussars charge into the formation, a powerful crossbow can knock down several rows of enemy troops! Li Cunxiao wields his spear like a dragon, Xu Chu is like a tiger descending from the mountain, Zhang Liao's spear is like lightning, and Guan Yu's Qinglong Yanyue sword is like a blue dragon. Going out to sea, there is nothing to be done!

Zhang Fei raised his snake spear and laughed happily while charging

, followed by thousands of hussars, like dragons and tigers, like wind and lightning, Sun Ce sent them. The spear formations and crossbowmen that surrounded the hussars were immediately killed!

Among the Huainan new troops in the north, Liu Bei originally wanted to let go, but he was unwilling to help Cao Ang. With a ready reinforcement, the Hussars moved again. If they didn't contribute, they would have no way to explain. So, with a heavy look, Sun Ce began to beat the drums and advance.

Immediately, he felt great pressure.

First, the more than ten thousand thieves under Shan Yue Qu Shuai Zu Lang were the first to collapse.

Zu Lang was killed by Xu Chu's sword. The more than ten thousand Shan Yue thieves were suddenly leaderless, and there was no way to fight against Sun Ce. What loyalty?

They threw off their armor and scattered.

On the battlefield, morale is very important.

Cao Ang led Yuzhang's troops from the south, which made all the troops in Jiangdong's army a little uneasy. The first to collapse?

The more than 30,000 private soldiers of Lujiang County's aristocratic families, although their combat effectiveness is still elite and stronger than ordinary thieves, in this somewhat headwind situation, they don't want to fight to the death, but want to preserve their strength.

In addition, Liu Bei's 70,000 Huainan Army began to exert force.

The more than 30,000 private soldiers of the Lujiang family were unable to withstand it and retreated.

At this time, Sun Ce's Jiangdong main force was caught in the middle..

Just now, Sun Ce was shouting that I have the advantage and will take the opportunity to destroy Cao Ang first, and his expression instantly became extremely exciting...

Even though he, the little overlord, has been in the army since he was sixteen and has experienced hundreds of battles, he has never seen the battlefield. The situation took such a turn for the worse!

At this moment, Sun Ce began to regret not listening to Zhou Yu Yu Fan's advice immediately and leading the main force to retreat. The two troops had been defeated.

Seeing that if they didn't leave, they would be beaten by Cao Ang's three troops, so Sun Ce hurriedly ordered:"Withdraw the troops!" withdraw troops!"

In view of the fact that Cao Ang's 30,000 troops and horses were blocking the way to the south, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu did not retreat south, but walked east of Shucheng.

About a hundred miles east of Shucheng is the Yangtze River, and across the river is Sun Ce's Jiangdong hinterland Danyang. After entering Danyang County and traveling more than a hundred miles east, Danyang County governs Wanling.

Sun Ce's uncle, Wu Jing, the governor of Danyang County, guards Shucheng there

, and there are many mountains on all sides, especially the mountains to the east. At most.

A few dozen miles to the east are two mountains with winding mountain roads, which is advantageous for the Jiangdong soldiers and horses who are adapted to the mountainous and watery terrain in the south, but for Cao Jun's hussars. It is disadvantageous.

The mountain road is winding and the rocks are rugged, which is not conducive to the cavalry's scattered attack. In other words

, as long as they enter the mountain road a few dozen miles east, the hussars will not pose any threat to them!

The previous dozens of miles of road were full of dangers!

Someone had to cut off the rear to avoid the danger of being defeated by the hussars.

So without waiting for Sun Ce's order, Han Dang stepped forward from Jiangdong's army and said,"My lord, go first." , I will lead my troops to cut off the rear!" Having said that, Han Dang led thousands of soldiers and horses from his headquarters to form an array on the spot.

Han Dang was originally from Liaoxi County. He was appreciated by Sun Jian because of his bravery and good fighting skills, good at riding and shooting, and amazing arm strength.

Sun Jian was very loyal.

After Sun Ce's death, he led his troops back to help Sun Ce establish Jiangdong's foundation. He was both loyal and extremely brave, and ranked among the top twelve tiger ministers in Jiangdong. Ranked third.

At this moment, Han Dang adheres to his loyalty of serving the Sun family for two generations and takes the initiative to lead his troops to cut off the rear. His loyalty and bravery are commendable!

"General Han, I will lead the main force to withdraw into the mountains to the east, and you can withdraw quickly!"

Sun Ce gritted his teeth, knowing that this was not the time to hesitate and push back, so he told Han Dang this sentence and hurriedly led the main force of more than 40,000 Jiangdong troops to withdraw eastward.

Not long after, Li Cunxiao and other five powerful generals took the lead with the portable hussars. Kill to

"Will you recognize me, Lord Han Yigong of Jiangdong?"

Han Dang rode his horse out and shouted loudly. He immediately opened his bow and set an arrow, and shot more than ten arrows in a row at Li Cunxiao and other five generals. They were more than a hundred steps away, and they roared away.

Just The skill and power of such a series of arrows are accurate, which shows that Han Dang is good at riding and shooting, so he is appreciated by Sun Jian, and his words are true!

"Good archery skills!"

Across the way, Li Cunxiao, Zhang Liao, Guan Yu and other generals couldn't help but shine with admiration when they saw Han Dang's rapid-fire attack.

However, they were not ordinary people, and those arrows were not Being shot down in mid-air means being avoided.

The generals have some appreciation and admiration for Han Dang. After all

, at this juncture, those who are willing to sacrifice their lives for their lord must be loyal ministers and righteous men!

On the military battlefield, one respects the opponent's loyalty, but cannot show mercy unless the opponent has been defeated and captured.

Obviously, Han Dang came with the intention of dying. Unless he died in battle first, he would not give in!

The only thing that can be done for such an opponent is to respect and support him!

Li Cunxiao, who had the fastest horse among the five generals, rushed to Han Dang first.

Han Dang shouted and raised his troops to meet him. Li Cunxiao also roared and waved. King Yu swept towards Han Dang's heart.

With a clang, the two collided with each other, and the weapons collided with each other, making a loud noise.

Han Dang is worthy of being a minister of Jiang Biao, his arm strength is really extraordinary, compared to Xiao Xiao. Overlord Sun Ce was not far behind

Li Cunxiao. After this blow, Han Dang almost lost his weapon. Although he was finally able to hold it, his arm was shaken violently, and the tiger's mouth cracked, and he was knocked out on the spot. He was bleeding, suffered serious internal injuries, and fell off his horse! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

0 Please give me flowers.

This is the power of Li Cunxiao's one blow!

Even Zhang Liao, who is also a member of the Five Hussars, Not long ago, he was unable to resist Li Cunxiao's attack at Xiaopei City!

At that time, Li Cunxiao did not use all his strength because his lord Cao Ang wanted to capture Zhang Liao.

But this time, Li Cunxiao also acted like his enemy Sun Ce.

Not far away in the south, Cao Ang, who led Yuzhang's troops, did not stop Li Cunxiao.

However , Cao Ang also respected Han Dang for his bravery and loyalty.

The army fights, each has its own position, and there is no right or wrong.

Han Dang is loyal to the Sun family and his son, and it is impossible for him to surrender because of the kindness of Sun Ce's father, Sun Jian.

Li Cunxiao rode his horse past, and Han Dang, who was seriously injured and fell from his horse, slowly closed his eyes with shock and unwillingness.

When Han Dang died, even the soldiers and horses under Han Dang were like the generals, not greedy for life and afraid of death.

He tried his best to stop him, but how could he be the opponent of the Hussars? After a moment, all the Hussars rushed over, leaving only the defeated soldiers who were killed or wounded or trampled on the ground.

……[]

"My lord, the hussars are catching up. I'm afraid General Han Dang has already……"

Among Sun Ce's troops who were withdrawing, Jiangdong generals heard the heavy sound of horse hooves from behind and couldn't help but said with sad faces.

At this time, Generals Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai suddenly looked at each other, gritted their teeth and tightened the reins:"My lord, hurry up, I and I will intercept you for a while!"

With that said, the two men took the three thousand bows from their headquarters. Pistols, form up on the spot!

These two men are also Jiang Biaohu ministers, and their loyalty and bravery are commendable, but they are still no match for Li Cunxiao and other generals.

After a while, the Hussars broke through their obstruction. Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai died at the hands of Zhang Liao and Xu Chu. All three thousand troops and horses under his command were wiped out!

It was precisely because of the desperate obstruction of Han Dang and Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's troops that they even fought to the last soldier, delaying the hussars for a period of time.

Therefore, Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and others were able to lead the remaining main force and retreat to the mountain pass east of Shucheng.

Seeing that they were about to enter the mountain pass, they saw Li Cunxiao and thousands of hussars chasing after them again.

To the southwest, Cao Ang also led several hundred cavalrymen from Liu Yao, including Tai Shici, in a circle to catch up and stop them at the mountain pass.

Obviously, he did not intend to let Sun Ce and Jiang Dongjun go.

Smoke and dust were billowing not far away. It seemed that the 70,000 Huainan New Army and 30,000 Yuzhang troops had temporarily abandoned the fleeing Lujiang soldiers and Shanyue soldiers and followed them.

This made Sun Ce and Zhou Yu's face look a little pale!

If they are entangled at this mountain pass, then the Jiangdong Army, which is less than 50,000, will inevitably be completely destroyed by Cao Ang's army of more than 100,000!

"rush out!

There are only a few hundred cavalry of Cao Ang in front of us. How can we stop the tens of thousands of elite soldiers from Jiangdong? Sun Ce gritted his teeth and wanted to boost his morale and ordered to rush in.

But Zhou Yu pulled Sun Ce and stopped Sun Ce's impulse:"My lord, although there are only a few hundred Cao Ang's riders in front, they are blocking the mountain pass."

This place is so narrow that the army cannot maneuver around it. It can be said that one man can hold the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it.

Cao Ang was so brave that he once rode more than 100,000 men with a hundred horses in Chen County, and even shot down Lu Bu's golden crown with one arrow in Xiaopei. According to legend, his bravery was even greater than that of Li Cunxiao. Since he dared to block the mountain pass, it showed that he had confidence.

Moreover, the hundreds of riders behind Cao Ang, including Tai Shici, were also elites from Liu Yao's tent.

In the battle of Shenting Ridge, Tai Shici and his lord fought neck to neck, and the remaining young general Jingqi and others also looked brave.

If the Lord attacks rashly and cannot break through the mountain pass in a short time, he will be bitten by the hussars behind him.

Then one hundred thousand Cao's troops pressed forward together, which was extremely disadvantageous!"

After Zhou Yu made this analysis, Sun Ce's face was still ugly, but he also calmed down a bit:"Then what should Gong Jin think? Zhou

Yu pondered for a moment, and then said:"The best thing is for the lord to give in to him and apologize. But he claims that the lord also wants to conquer the rebel Yuan Shu for the court. He didn't know that Cao Ang came to Lujiang. This is a misunderstanding."

As I expected, if Cao Ang defeated Yuan Shu this time, Yuan Shao of Jizhou would be shocked and would no longer sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers.

If Cao Ang fights to the death with his lord here, even though our army is at a disadvantage, it will suffer a lot from the trapped beasts.

If Yuan Shao attacks Xudu at this time, the Cao family will be in trouble!

The Lord has thrown tens of thousands of troops and horses to Cao Ang to give him face.

At this time, if he is willing to obey the orders of the Hussar General and lead the Jiangdong troops to contain Jingzhou so that he can return to Xudu with peace of mind, Cao Ang may be able to let him go.

If Cao Ang doesn't allow it, you can abandon your horse and go into the forest and go around the mountains on both sides!"

Zhou Yu's analysis and suggestions, although a bit embarrassing, are undoubtedly the best way under the current circumstances.

So after struggling for a moment, Sun Ce chose to listen to the advice.

A man can bend and stretch, not to mention that Sun Ce was not there before. Yuan Shu’s subordinates bent over

"Is that Brother Cao Zixiu in front? Why is Brother Cao like this!

Listen to Brother Yu’s explanation. What happened today is all a misunderstanding.……"

Sun Ce took a deep breath, looked at Cao Ang from a distance, and began to surrender and ask for peace... spoon...
