But this time, the soldiers and horses under Sun Jian's command were not frightened by the attacks of these trebuchets, perhaps they had already been mentally prepared, or the arrival of reinforcements gave these people greater confidence that they could defeat Liu Zheng's troops.

After resisting a round of trebuchet projection, after killing and wounding hundreds of soldiers, those men and horses under Sun Jian finally approached Liu Zheng's camp, and the swords and guns were destroyed at this time.

At the same time, at this time, some Sun Jianmen and horses, who were carrying timber and haystacks, began to throw these haystacks into the camp.

Originally, a lot of firewood had been placed outside the camp by Sun Jian's people, and Liu Zheng had already guessed what Sun Jian wanted to do, but now that the wood was moved out, it was even more certain that Sun Jian was planning to attack with fire.

Liu Zheng's side hadn't figured out a way to deal with it, so Sun Jian had already ordered his men to set fire.

A few archers with bows and arrows immediately lit the flames on the arrows, and then shot directly at the haystacks that had been placed in advance.

These dry haystacks were perfect for igniting fires on such hot summer days, and as soon as the flames from the arrows fell on the bushes, smoke rose and then the flames burned at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In an instant, it had already covered the surroundings of Liu Zheng's camp.

Liu Zheng thought that Sun Jian's men and horses would launch a general attack on Liu Zheng at this time, but he didn't expect that Sun Jian was very insidious, and he didn't attack with all his strength at all, but came first with a wave of fire.

The fire was soon blown by the wind, burning the entire outside of the camp, and Liu Zheng originally wanted to fight with Sun Jian here, but it became impossible.

He could only order a retreat, to withdraw from the camp, the three gates of the camp were blocked and surrounded, and only one exit in the south was not surrounded by Sun Jian's men.

Therefore, the way to retreat is also simple, just let your people start to shrink in the southern direction gradually, directly form an array, and leave from the camp.

Of course, Liu Zheng also knew that Sun Jian deliberately left a mouth not to besiege, and the purpose was simple, that is, he planned to take all the remaining soldiers and horses to pursue Liu Zheng in this direction when Liu Zheng and the others retreated from here.

Sure enough, just when Liu Zheng was in the camp and began to shrink the defense line, allowing the soldiers and horses to leave the camp from the south, Sun Jian's soldiers and horses outside the camp also began to change.

At first, some soldiers and horses stationed on both sides began to gradually move towards the exit to the south, and then a large number of soldiers and horses began to frantically flock to the entrance to the south.

Liu Zheng took advantage of the fire and began to evacuate the camp at the same time, just as he was approached by those Sun Jian's troops, half of the men and horses evacuated from the camp, and the other half were still in the camp.

Sun Jian's men were killed at this time.

"Gan Ning, you take 5,000 soldiers and block these enemy troops first!"

After Liu Zheng immediately saw Sun Jian's pursuing soldiers and horses, he gave Gan Ning an order, and at the same time asked Su Fei to continue to evacuate with the rest of the people.

At this time, if you fight with Sun Jian's soldiers and horses at this time, you will inevitably be at a disadvantage, not only will you not have any advantage, but you may also bury most of the soldiers and horses here.

Liu Zheng has never fought such an uncertain battle, so naturally the first thing that comes to mind is to withdraw for the time being.

Sun Jing and Fan Neng, each led 10,000 troops, and killed them from the left and right at the south gate of the camp, and the 20,000 army was already more than Liu Zheng in this camp, all the soldiers and horses.

The momentum alone is already a bit terrifying, but Gan Ning is also a person who is used to seeing this kind of big scene, and he did not feel scared because of the large number of people on the other side, but at the same time, he led some of the most elite soldiers and horses under his command to kill Fan Neng's 10,000 army.

On the other side of Sun Jing's troops, Liu Zheng could only let Wen Ping lead a part of the soldiers and horses to temporarily contain one or two.

In this way, while fighting, while retreating, Liu Zheng lost more than 3,000 people on his side, and finally completely evacuated from the camp, with a group of people and horses, evacuated the range of ten miles, and Sun Jian's soldiers and horses were still pursuing.

After eliminating Liu Zheng's 3,000 people, Sun Jian's side only lost more than 2,000 people, and drove Liu Zheng's army away in embarrassment, which was a great victory for Sun Jian.

He was also carried away by this victory, and kept urging Fan Neng and Sun Jing to start vigorously pursuing Liu Zheng.

After Liu Zheng escaped, he was a little embarrassed, but there was no tension at all, and after the soldiers and horses under his command fought with Sun Jian's people, Liu Zheng understood one thing more, Sun Jian's men and horses were not very good.

Although Liu Zheng had thousands of casualties, Sun Jian's side had the same large casualties, and under the dominant pursuit battle, the casualties were actually equal, so as a result, for Liu Zheng, if the roles of the two sides were reversed, Liu Zheng believed that he could defeat Sun Jian's enemies several times as many times as much.

"My lord, Sun Jian's people, are chasing after them, and some of our brothers have fallen behind and have not followed, but we are afraid that the casualties will continue to increase."

Su Fei stood by Liu Zheng's side, at this time Liu Zheng was only Su Fei by his side, Diploma and Gan Ning each led their soldiers and horses, covering in the rear, and did not be with Liu Zheng, at this time, Liu Zheng didn't even know what the situation was on their side, but Liu Zheng believed that with their means and strength, they would not be captured in such a battle.

"What about our people, what about Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin? Haven't arrived yet? ”

"When we arrive, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, send someone to send us a message, they are in the jungle not far away, and they have already prepared an ambush, as long as we pass, Sun Jian's pursuers continue to pursue, and they will be able to enter their ambush circle, and when the time comes, we will unite Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's 10,000 soldiers and horses to counterattack Sun Jian, at least we can give Sun Jian a heavy blow!"

Su Fei told Liu Zheng the news he received, and Liu Zheng's face looked better at this time.

"Okay, it's the right time to come, continue to escape, and go directly in the direction of Zhou Tai."

Liu Zheng has already lured Sun Jian's men and horses to this place, and it is not difficult to continue to attract them to pursue, as long as Sun Jian continues to pursue, he will definitely fall into the trap.

Fighting a war is a matter of momentum, once Sun Jian's people find themselves in an ambush, the momentum of the charge will collapse at the beginning, and the intention of attacking will begin to waver.

As soon as this momentum weakens, the idea of retreating and fleeing will arise.
