Because this time it was Sun Ce who personally blocked the attack, Zhang Xiu naturally did not dare to attack easily. After resting outside Lingyang City for a few days, Zhang Xiucai gathered his generals and formally invited Sun Cejun to fight in Lingyang City.

Sun Cejun's side was naturally in response. The city wall of Lingyang is low and dilapidated, and the defense against bandits is okay, but it is completely unreliable to use it as a stubborn resistance in front of 40,000 regular soldiers.

When the colonel sent by Zhang Xiujun to invite the battle returned to Zhang Xiujun's formation, the gate of Lingyang City was opened, and a knight with bright armor and golden helmet went out of the city surrounded by Huang Gai, Song Qian, Chen Wu and other Jiangdong military generals, and the Jiangdong Mabu Army followed closely behind.

After a while, the Jiangdong Army in soap armor and green clothes lined up in formation against Zhang Xiujun, who was in black armor, blue clothes and gray clothes. Zhang Xiu introduced several personal generals, fought horses, and wanted to meet the little overlord Sun Ce for a while.

As soon as Zhang Xiu appeared, the eyes of the soldiers in Jiangdong immediately changed. They all looked extremely resentful, wanting to eat the skin of their flesh relatives. Although Sun Ce, who was in the middle, was wearing a bronze mask in today's battle, the endless anger and gnashing of teeth revealed in it were felt by Zhang Xiu at a glance.

In fact, Jiangdongjun's reaction was lower than Zhang Xiu's psychological expectations, and Zhang Xiu knew that what he did would cause much hatred among Jiangdong soldiers. Just betraying the alliance and secretly attacking will be despised by ordinary people. Not to mention that in order to achieve his own goals, Zhang Xiu also sent assassins to disguise and assassinate, and to do things to such a despicable and obscene level, at this moment, there is no Jiangdong fierce general who jumped out to attack and kill Zhang Xiu to take revenge, which is already a great restraint.

Jiang Dongjun didn't scold, and Zhang Xiu was not too embarrassed to take the initiative to scold. just steered the war horse under the seat steadily, and slowly rushed to the front of the two armies in the eyes of tens of thousands of Jiangdong soldiers who could almost kill.

Over there, Sun Ce finally raised his arm and opened his lips, but the voice he made was very low, presumably because of the arrow wound on his face, he couldn't open his mouth and roar loudly.

"The whole army comes forward and kills the thief army!"

Zhang Xiu was stunned for a while, but he never thought that Sun Ce would directly give the order for the whole army to rush and kill!

Hu Che'er, Zhou Cang, Li Feng, and Cao Xing, who were always on guard against Sun Ce's prancing horse, took out a gun to pick Zhang Xiu, and the four generals were also a little blind, but they soon reacted, and the four of them were in one direction, protecting Zhang Xiu and posing as a retreat at any time.

Zhang Xiu was also stunned for a moment, and didn't have time to think about why today's Sun Ce would go against the usual norm of going out to kill the generals in person when fighting, so he immediately drew his sword, slashed down, and shouted: "The iron cavalry rushes into battle, and the whole army breaks the enemy!" ”

However, Zhang Xiu's shouts were still drowned in the shouts and kills of the Jiangdong army. The voice of Jiangdong Army veteran Huang Gai even overshadowed Zhang Xiu's shouting order by himself. I saw that General Huang Gaihuang, a veteran of Jiangdong who was in the prime of life, waved the iron whip in his hand, took the lead, shaking the beard under his mouth to supplement Sun Ce's military order: "The lord has an order, kill Zhang Xiu, the person who embroiders this fang, reward a thousand gold, and seal a county of food!" ”

Although Huang Gai's roar covered Zhang Xiu's order for a while, Ji Ling and the others in the military formation saw Zhang Xiu's sword swinging action clearly.

Without waiting for the order of Ji Ling, the supreme military commander in the military array, the eight hundred Xiliang Iron Cavalry directly belonging to Zhang Xiu rushed straight towards Sun Cejun, who was surging and killing in front of him, under the command of Li Feng's spear raised high by Zhang Xiu's side.

Ji Ling then ordered: "The ordinary heavy cavalry in the army will charge the formation with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, the light cavalry will outflank the two wings, and the light and heavy foot soldiers will follow the general to press the whole army." ”

With Ji Ling's command, although Zhang Xiujun lost first in terms of momentum and opportunity, the position was not chaotic, and he still maintained an absolute military advantage and pressed the Jiangdong Army in an orderly manner.

At this moment, Zhou Cang, who was beside Zhang Xiu, was the first to persuade: "General, let's retreat a little further and avoid the edge of Jiang **'s cavalry for a while." ”

Zhang Xiu's first reaction at the moment when the Jiangdong Army suddenly launched a charge was to temporarily retreat, and at this moment, after listening to Zhou Cang's worried words, he was also psychologically inclined to retreat to protect himself.

However, after taking another look at Sun Ce, who was wearing a bright armor and a golden helmet and a copper mask, he was attacking with all his might, but another emotion rose in his heart. Immediately set aside Zhou Cang, who was guarding in front, and inserted the sword back. While stretching out his hand and asking Li Feng for his tiger head golden gun, he said coldly: "Sun Bofu can still kill with injuries, and my whole body is still healthy, why can't I kill the general and capture the flag?" ”

Li Fengke, who carried the gun for Zhang Xiu, was an extremely courageous brave general, and without saying a word, he immediately took the tiger head golden gun and handed it to Zhang Xiu.

Zhou Cang was a little embarrassed, but Hu Che'er and Cao Xing were arrogant for a while.

The next moment, Zhou Cang and Li Feng held their guns and stood on Zhang Xiu's left and right, and Cao Xing stood behind Zhang Xiu's horse with a bow and arrow. Hu Che'er knew that his riding skills were not perfect, so he dismounted and stood in front of Cao Xing's horse.

The next moment, Zhang Xiu and Zhou Cang Li Feng formed a small triangular formation, and rushed towards the Jiangdong Army. And Cao He and Hu Che'er rode step by step, followed by Zhang Xiu's three horses, and also rushed towards the Jiangdong Army.

The first one to fight Zhang Xiu was Huang Gai. The so-called one inch long and one inch strong, Zhang Xiu's tiger head golden gun is still very deterrent. But Huang Gai didn't test the way of playing first, and came up to catch Zhang Xiu and fought hard. For a while, relying on the iron whip in his hand to overcome the rigidity with the characteristics of Qu Kerou, Zhang Xiu was almost unable to parry.

On the other side, Sun Ce intercepted Li Feng, who also used a gun, to fight, I don't know if it was because Li Feng and Zhang Xiu had been practicing day and night in recent years and improved his marksmanship, or because Sun Ce was seriously injured and had not recovered.

Zhou Cang caught Song Qian, a young warrior in Jiangdong, one relying on brute force and the other on technique, but they were comparable.

Zhang Xiu's resolute rush also aroused Zhang Xiujun's passion for killing. Xiliang Iron Cavalry rampaged in the direction of Zhang Xiu, and thousands of heavy riders followed. After that, 40,000 Xiliang infantry and Huainan infantry followed closely and went up to cover the killing.

Chen Wu, the first fierce general under Sun Ce, led the Jiangdong elite soldiers on the left flank of Sun Ce's army, and Chen Wu, who had escaped the strong impact of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, led the sharp soldiers of his headquarters to be the first to counterattack into the Zhang Xiujun infantry regiment, and killed the left and right in it, making an excellent example for the main force of the Jiangdong elite soldiers who were specially deployed on the flank. Zhang Xiujun's right-wing Huainan pawns were in great confusion for a while.

Zhang Xiu's general, Chen Lan, who supervised the right-wing foot soldiers, could not let Chen Wu take dozens of people to take his prestige, and immediately led the light soldiers of the headquarters to face Chen Wu, who was making waves.

It's just that Chen Lan quickly regretted his actions to underestimate the enemy, and after three rounds of fighting with Chen Wu, who had a strange appearance and a yellow eye, he was almost unarmed. If it weren't for the timely appearance of his good friend Lei Bo, Chen Lan would have been honored to become the first general to die at the hands of Sun Cejun since Zhang Xiujun's southern expedition to Jiangdong.

However, Rao is Chen Lan and Lei Bo fought Chen Wu together, but they were still killed by this Jiangdong fierce man and jumped and hidden.

In the end, Tai Shici, who was rushing to kill in the middle, noticed the abnormal situation here, and came to help in the battle, which left Chen Lan and Lei Bo under Chen Wudao's life.

On the other flank, Zhang Xiujun bravely captured Song Xian, the general of the Jiangdong Army, and Xu Yi, the general of the Jiangdong Army.

On the front, Ji Ling alone blocked Deng Dang and Ling Cao's two generals, Sun Ce, although he had the upper hand, it was difficult to defeat these two people for a while.

Look at Zhang Xiu and Huang Gai again. Huang Gai scolded and fought, while Zhang Xiu kept holding his breath to deal with it. After nearly two years, Zhang Xiu's soul was finally fully integrated into this body, and he finally mastered the Hundred Birds and Phoenix marksmanship. In the face of generals like Huang Gai, you can also fight with him.

"You are such a treacherous villain who betrays the alliance and sneaks up on the alliance, and you have the face to face my lord again, and then face my Jiangdong children!"

"Xiliang barbarian, why are you so empty-hearted, despicable and treacherous like a snake and a fox, I Huang Gai should have slashed you alive in Wu County that day!"

"How can a person like you who is unbearable not have sores on his back and die of thunder?"

“……”

No matter how Huang Gai scolded, Zhang Xiu kept his mouth shut, and devoted himself to Huang Gai and the Jiangdong soldiers around him who were attacked with guns.

Of course, the main reason why Zhang Xiu didn't reply to his scolding was because Zhang Xiu really had no face and no confidence to scold Huang Gai.

Indeed, Zhang Xiu took advantage of Sun Ce's lightness and unpreparedness, and used fraudulent and disdainful means to defeat Sun Ce and seek Jiangdong. Zhang Xiu admitted this, and naturally did not have the face to speak ill of Huang Gai again.

……

Half an hour later, the battle between Zhang Xiu and his generals and Sun Cejun's generals still did not determine an obvious victory. But the outcome of Zhang Xiujun and Sun Cejun has already been decided.

Not to mention the combat power of 20,000 Xiliang soldiers. Just said that Ji Ling's 20,000 Huainan soldiers were not inferior to more than 10,000 Jiangdong's injured and weak people. What's more, there are elites directly belonging to Zhang Xiu participating in this battle. Without working to fly the bear soldiers, only relying on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry and the Qianghu Bow Cavalry were enough to defeat the Jiangdong Army.

As for those brave Jiangdong Army generals, as long as they get rid of ordinary Jiangdong Army officers and soldiers, ordinary Zhang Xiujun generals are enough to kill Sun Ce, Huang Gai and others.

And that's exactly what happened. Although Sun Ce, Huang Gai, Chen Wu and others fought with all their might, the role they played was only to extend the time of the rout of the Jiangdong Army.

Over there, Zhang Xiu still didn't defeat Huang Gai, who was in the prime of life, but he was defeated after his army established a victory. Zhang Xiu, who had suffered a flesh wound on his back and wrist, was not supported, and a group of Zhang Xiujun generals led by Zhou Cang caught Huang Gai in turn.

It's just that Zhang Xiu was panting, but he still couldn't drink it in time, and Ji Ling stabbed Ling Cao in the chest with a three-pointed two-edged knife. made his expectation of recruiting Ling Cao and Ling Tong's father and son before the war shattered.

Deng Dang, another Jiangdong general who fought against Ji Ling, was knocked off his horse by Ji Ling and captured by Sergeant Zhang Xiu.

Dong Xi, who fought with Hu Che'er, did not use more physical strength, and was eventually injured and captured.

Jiangdong Xiao general Song Qian, when he was facing the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, was shot by a secret arrow from Cao Xing, fell off his horse on the spot, and died under the iron hoof.

……

The most fierce ones were Chen Wu and Tai Shici. The two fought each other, and each left a lot of wounds on each other's bodies. In the end, Tai Shici and Chen Wu were both exhausted, and Chen Wu, who was covered in blood, was finally stabbed to death by Chen Lan and Lei Bo and dozens of pikemen!

With the annihilation of the Jiangdong Rui soldiers under Chen Wuji, the entire battlefield was left with Sun Ce, who was fighting with Zhang Xiu's personal general Li Feng alone.

These two people fought, but none of Zhang Xiujun's soldiers stepped forward. It's not because Sun Ce's name as a little overlord is too powerful, but because Zhang Xiu has an order that Sun Ce is not allowed to bully more or add more guns and arrows to Sun Ce, leaving Sun Ce a fair and honest way to die.

The outcome of the battle has long been predestined, so naturally there is no need to repeat it. However, Sun Ce, Huang Gai and others would rather die until they were defeated, but the choice of not getting out was beyond Zhang Xiu's expectations.
