Chapter 477: Sun Jian Died in Battle (II)

Sun Jian only left scouts at the gates of each city and kept a close watch; Now the people in the city began to backfill the trenches, and these scouts were powerless to stop them, so they had to repay Zhu Ran, who was sticking to the barracks, because he had few soldiers and heavy responsibilities, so he didn't dare to stop them.

can only blame Sun Jian for having few soldiers, otherwise he would not have made such a low-level mistake, giving Patriarch Huang a chance to backfill.

Seeing that the Yangzhou soldiers did not come to stop him, the Huang patriarch knew that Yangzhou's troops were tight, so he was even more courageous, so he simply ordered people to fill in the trenches outside the north gate, and ordered two thousand Danyang soldiers to prepare for battle.

Since there were no obstacles, the two trenches were not difficult to fill.

Huang Zu fought very aggrieved, and many officers and soldiers on both wings could not enter the battle because they had to beware of the enemy's cavalry, otherwise the Yangzhou cavalry would never attack, and they would suffer a serious blow.

However, Sun Jian's side fought very smoothly, with the Danyang soldiers opening the way in front and the other infantry expanding their results in the rear.

Patriarch Huang is still standing on the city wall, watching the battlefield in the distance, the Jingzhou side has obviously fallen into the disadvantage, but relying on the large number of people, it is still struggling to insist, if the Yangzhou cavalry goes up again, Huang Zu will definitely be defeated.

Therefore, Huang Zuchang decisively issued an order to attack, led by the Huang family 2,000 Danyang soldiers and 2,000 infantry to attack Sun Jian's camp, it is best to burn their heavy grain and grass and other materials, even if they can't burn valuable materials, as long as there is a big battle and fire in the Yangzhou military camp, it will affect the morale of Yangzhou soldiers.

Two thousand Danyang soldiers attacked, and two thousand infantry divided into two teams, feinting from the left and right sides, and after the Danyang soldiers rushed into the enemy camp, they had to take the opportunity to prevent fire.

So the two thousand infantrymen went out of the city with a bundle of firewood or grass to be used for the fire.

The Danyang soldiers went out of the city from the north gate, and the Huang patriarch ordered the soldiers guarding the four gates to go out of the city and shout, knock on their weapons, and make a gesture of support; I hope it can affect the morale of the officers and soldiers in Yangzhou, slow down the attack, and reduce the pressure on Huang Zu.

Sun Jian was unmoved, feeling that the tired soldiers in the city would never dare to go out of the city to fight, so he ordered the infantry to continue the attack, and defeated the Jingzhou soldiers in one go.

Zhu Ran, who was guarding the barracks, did not dare to be careless, and sent troops to guard everywhere, and his 4,000 infantry were assembled and on standby.

The Danyang soldiers were brave and ferocious, and they were indomitable and rushed straight to the Yangzhou military camp; Infantry feints on the left and right flanks and protect the flanks.

The defense of the Yangzhou military camp was lax, the fence was drummed down, and the Danyang soldiers rushed into the camp and ran head-on with Zhu Ran's 4,000 infantry.

Seeing that the only Yangzhou soldiers in the enemy camp were stopped by the Danyang soldiers, the other 2,000 infantry saw a rare opportunity and immediately began to set fire to and loot, and those wounded were also successfully beheaded, and their heads were cut off, which became the combat exploits of the Jingzhou soldiers.

4,000 ordinary infantry, how can they be the opponent of 2,000 Danyang soldiers? Even if Zhu Ran was brave, the Yangzhou soldiers were still killed and retreated; At this time, the camp was full of fires and shouts, and they did not know how many enemy troops had come, and they were afraid.

The Danyang soldiers became more and more courageous, and the Yangzhou soldiers scattered and fled; There were few soldiers and generals, and Zhu Ran was powerless to stop it, so he had to abandon the camp and go to Sun Jian to report.

The infantry Sima came to report that all the Yangzhou baggage had been burned, and the Huang family leader felt that the task was completed, and immediately ordered to return to the city quickly, he did not want to be retaliated by the Yangzhou cavalry.

A raging fire erupted in the camp, shocking both sides of the battlefield.

When Zhu Ran arrived, Sun Jian knew that the camp had been lost, coupled with the fire he had seen before, his baggage was lost, and suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out of the distance, and he fell off the horse.

All the Yangzhou soldiers stood on the spot, their baggage was lost, and they were finished.

Huang Zu did not take advantage of the situation to kill, but urgently ordered the soldiers to retreat, intending to return to the valley barracks; He believed that the enemy's baggage had been lost, and as long as he held the city, the Yangzhou army would definitely retreat without a fight.

Half an hour later, Sun Jian woke up.

After understanding the situation, Sun Jian immediately made a decision, ordered Zhu Ran to personally lead the infantry to attack the city, and was determined to take Xiling City, divided 3,000 cavalry to Zu Mao, and went around to loot grain, he personally led Huang Gai and other 4,000 cavalry to pursue Huang Zu, and strive to seize the grain in Huang Zu's hands, temporarily relieving the urgent need.

Previously, the Yangzhou soldiers did not plunder the surrounding people, Sun Jian believed that these people would be the people under his rule from now on, and they could not bear to be harmed, but now they can't take care of so much, and it is a fluke to be able to return to Yangzhou safely.

The troops retreated, the Yangzhou cavalry did not pursue, Huang Zu was overjoyed, and rushed back with the army; He and forty crossbowmen guarded him with war horses, and it was not easy for him to abandon his army and go alone, so he had to ride his horse and break his horse.

An hour later, suddenly there was a huge sound of horses' hooves behind him, Huang Zu knew that it was broken, and it must be the Yangzhou cavalry chasing after him; He had no choice but to organize a formation to meet the enemy.

The running panting soldiers, at this time their faces were so frightened that their faces were bloodless, and now their physical strength was very exertional, how to resist the cavalry? However, they also knew that the infantry would not be able to outrun the cavalry, and if they continued to escape, they would be completely annihilated by the cavalry; Therefore, everyone still obediently obeyed Huang Zu's orders and lined up to meet the enemy.

Huang Zu rode a horse and commanded behind.

Sun Jian had no way to retreat at this time, and led the cavalry to move forward bravely and rushed straight to the Jingzhou military formation.

The hastily organized defense, how could it be Sun Jian's opponent?

After a burst of shooting, Sun Jian rushed into the enemy formation, and the big knife flew over, and the Jingzhou soldiers he killed were splashed with blood and limbs.

On both sides, Huang Zu and Xu Kun followed up on the left and right, like a sharp arrow, straight into the Jingzhou army array.

Sun Jian fought a bloody way and went straight to the last Huang Zu, he thought, the commander of the horse behind must be Huang Zu, if Huang Zu is killed, the Jingzhou soldiers will collapse by themselves.

Jingzhou soldiers seemed to understand Sun Jian's intentions, and actually dodged to both sides, making way for Sun Jian.

Huang Zu was shocked, immediately turned his horse's head, and accelerated his escape with forty guards; Now is not the time to save face, save your life first.

Sun Jian led his troops in pursuit.

Huang Zu thought to himself, if this is the case, sooner or later he will be overtaken, so he immediately made a decision, so he led the forty guards to leave the road and rush towards the gentle slope and dense forest on the east side.

Seeing that Huang Zu and the others gave up their horses and fled into the dense forest, Sun Jian was unmoved and continued to pursue.

Huang Gai dissuaded: "Lord, every time Lin Mo enters, be careful of ambushes." ”

Sun Jian said viciously: "Huang Zu is rude by nature, why would he use this trick? If you don't kill Huang Zu, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in your heart. ”

Huang Gai couldn't stop it, Sun Jian had already dismounted, carried a big knife, and rushed towards the dense forest, he had to keep up with the guards to protect Sun Jian's safety.

Huang Zu did not go far, but lay down to rest after a gentle slope, he really couldn't walk.

Suddenly, the person in charge of the guard whispered forward: "Young master, Sun Jian is chasing after you?" ”

"How many? How dare he follow the jungle? ”

"Only Sun Jian is in front, and everyone else is behind."

Huang Zu was in a good mood, thinking that this is the place where Sun Jian died, as long as Sun Jian is shot, the Yangzhou soldiers will definitely retreat, so he said: "Everyone prepare, shoot Sun Jian with arrows in a while, otherwise, none of us can escape." "These crossbowmen are the elites secretly cultivated by the Huang family, and their combat power is far above the Danyang soldiers, to be precise, the dead soldiers trained by the Huang family.

Everyone nodded, and ambushed all around under the arrangement of the crossbow captain.

Sun Jian believed that he was strong in martial arts, and he didn't take Huang Zu and the others in his eyes at all, and rushed all the way, leaving Huang Gai and the others behind.

When he entered Huang Zu's ambush circle, a loud "bump" suddenly came, and after that, the loud noises continued one after another, Sun Jian estimated that he was broken, and he must have been ambushed by the enemy.

Before he could react, several bolts pierced his body.

Huang Zu is really cunning! Is it going to die here? The great cause has not been accomplished, and he is unwilling! That was his last thought.
