The random arrows on the head of the city were shot down one after another, but most of them were still more than ten steps away from Sun Ce and were inserted into the ground, and occasionally a few of them came to him, and they were also gently flicked by the spear in Sun Ce's hand, and they fell into the dust.

Sun Ce raised his head and laughed: "Come and don't be rude, the people in the city listen, watch us shoot back, sons, go." ”

After speaking, Sun Ce urged his crotch to get off his war horse and walked westward, five thousand cavalry followed closely behind him, he felt as if he was no longer an ordinary captain, but a real leading general, five thousand horsemen lined up in several rows in front of Yangping Pass, the soldiers took off their bows, put on arrows, and aimed at the defenders on the city, but the soldiers on the city were like looking at the Western scenery, clustered on both sides of the arrow stacks, they didn't believe that at such a long distance, who could shoot from the city to the pass, all the defenders were waiting to see the jokes of these people,

"Shoot." With Sun Ce's order, five thousand arrows were shot at the head of the city, the screams on the head of the city rang out, the unsuspecting defenders were hit by arrows one after another, shrunk quickly, and could hide behind the arrow battlements, the slow movements, had been pierced through the head by arrows, and even the probe probed to look down, fell directly from the city, even if they were not shot, they were sure that their bones were broken and their tendons were broken, and there was no hope of survival.

Seeing that some of the defender soldiers on the head of the city were cowering behind the arrow stacks, and some hurriedly erected their shields, Sun Ce laughed again, and turned his horse to the east, and the whole cavalry team was like a long dragon, under the leadership of Sun Ce, galloped all the way in front of the south gate of Yangping Pass, and in the running, everyone followed Sun Ce's example and shot an arrow at the city tower, and the continuous rain of arrows pressed the soldiers in the city did not dare to raise their heads, only to hear the sound of "dangdangdang" on the shield endlessly, Some of the soldiers' hands holding shields were numb, and a few soldiers were accidentally hit by stray arrows and lost their lives.

Although the two rounds of arrow rain in a row were lively, Zhang Biao and other lieutenants were not in a relaxed mood, so dealing with the defenders in the city was tantamount to scratching the boots, that is, using up all the arrows he carried, and injuring a few people, Zhang Biao glanced at Sun Ce, although he was not convinced, but he could only swallow his anger and said: "General Sun, take advantage of the enemy's fear, order the siege of the city." ”

Sun Ce said angrily: "Siege the city, what to attack, there is no ladder equipment, how can we go up such a high city wall, we are cavalry, do you give up the war horse to be an infantry, wait for me to call for a while." ”

At this time, Zhang Wei and Yang Ang were hurrying to the city, and when they walked halfway, they heard the screams on the city, and some soldiers had already run over to report that the city was Liu Xin's army, Zhang Wei and Yang Ang's hearts were tight, they had been worried that Dong Zhuo would move south, but they didn't expect that it was Liu Xin who made the first move, and it came so fast, there was no warning in advance,

When they climbed to the top of the city, they saw that thousands of cavalry under the city were showing off their might there, Sun Ce pointed his spear at the head of the city, and shouted: "Listen to the people in the city, just now it was just a small punishment, so that you can see and see the power of my Han army, and surrender now, you can also protect your whole family without worry, if you are obsessed, when the army of my lord arrives, you will all die and have no place to be buried." ”

Yang Ang didn't know the situation of the shooting between the city and the city just now, and after listening to Sun Ce's words, he was furious, seeing that he was still far away and young, Suo surnamed Suo held the battlements with one hand, and pointed to the city with the other hand and scolded: "You things who don't know whether to live or die, with these few people, you want to make us surrender, don't leave, wait for me to come down and capture you." ”

Although Zhang Wei is also a master who refuses to accept defeat easily, he kept an eye on it and persuaded: "General Yang, why do we need to have the same knowledge as them, Yangping Pass is high and thick, and they are all cavalry, and they can't attack it in a hurry, and the grain and grass in Guanzhong are enough to support more than a month, so it is advisable to hold on to help, and wait for my brother to get the news, and then there will be an internal and external attack, and they will definitely be able to come and go." ”

Before his words fell, he heard a "whoosh", a feather arrow shot straight from the pass, hit Yang Ang's forehead, pierced the skull, the power of this arrow was amazing, Yang Ang's entire body flew backwards, "bang", he was nailed to the doorpost of the city tower, and the cheers in the cavalry array under the city were deafening.

Zhang Wei didn't expect that there was someone who could shoot arrows into the city so far away, and it was accurate and ruthless, and he suddenly asked for Yang Ang's surname, and he was frightened, the ambition just now had long been gone, and in the panic, he also hid behind the shield, peeking at the city, but saw Sun Ce slowly put down the hard bow in his hand, and was shouting loudly there: "If there is someone who does not surrender, this person is an example." ”

People who practice martial arts admire heroes the most, Zhang Biao, Li Sheng and other captains didn't expect such a little boy to have such amazing bravery, and when he looked at Sun Ce again, his eyes no longer had the contempt just now.

Sun Ce saw that all the soldiers in the city were timid, and continued: "Listen, I repeat, the entire Hanzhong has fallen into the hands of my lord, and surrendering is the only way out for you, give you an hour, if you don't surrender, you will bear the consequences." ”

Zhang Wei looked back at Yang Ang, who was still nailed to the doorpost, and was hated and afraid in his heart, he knew very well that it was almost impossible for these cavalry under the city to attack the city, but if what he said was true, Hanzhong had fallen, this Guancheng would not be able to hold it sooner or later, without Hanzhong's help, even if they didn't attack, how long could the grain and grass in Guanzhong support?

Seeing Zhang Wei's hesitation, Qin Dong, a trusted lieutenant, came over and said softly: "General Zhang, I think what this person said is not true, if Hanzhong has been lost, Liu Xin will definitely not only send thousands of cavalry to seize my Yangping Pass, now, most of the military horses in Hanzhong are in Yangping Pass, there are less than 10,000 people in the hands of the lord, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist in the face of Liu Xin's heavy troops, according to the foolish opinion of the last general, this is Liu Xin's suspicious strategy, deterring me from closing the military horses, so that our army does not dare to go out of the pass to help the lord, these cavalry under the city are only the benefit of bows and arrows, if it is close combat, Our army is outnumbered, but we are not necessarily afraid of them. ”

Qin Dong's words gave Zhang Wei a wake-up call, he gradually calmed down, Liu Xin's army was able to come here, indicating that Jiameng Pass has been lost, since Jiameng Pass has fallen, Liu Xin will definitely attack Hanzhong first, Hanzhong's troops are meager, Zhang Lu must be looking forward to his reinforcements now, then this cavalry is likely to be like Qin Dong said, just to deter them from going to rescue Hanzhong, besides, there are 40,000 troops on the pass, if he is scared to surrender with just a few words, wouldn't it become a big joke,

Zhang Wei glanced at Sun Ce under the city, and hesitated a little, this young general is too heroic, if he goes out of the customs to fight, I am afraid that no one in his army will be his opponent, but if he does not go out of the customs, what can he do to rescue the eldest brother in Hanzhong,

This is the disadvantage of poor information, Zhang Wei has no means of flying pigeons to pass on the book, and now it is impossible to transmit military information through the post station, so he can only blindly suspect here, and it is difficult to make a correct decision, however, Qin Dong is very confident in his judgment, and continues to persuade: "General Zhang, without further ado, rescuing the lord is the top priority, and the last general thinks that he can divide his troops into two ways, one way to entangle the enemy soldiers under the city, and the other way to go straight to Hanzhong to relieve the danger of the lord, and when the time comes, take advantage of the victory to pursue, maybe you can retake Jiameng Pass." ”

Zhang Wei was worried about the safety of his eldest brother, gritted his teeth, and finally made up his mind and said, "Okay, according to what you say, divide the troops out of the city." ”

But after all, he was a little jealous of the young general under the city, so Qin Dong led 10,000 people to entangle Sun Ce, and he took 15,000 people to relieve the siege of Hanzhong, leaving 15,000 people to stick to Yangping Pass.

Sun Ce waited quietly under the city, he knew that the defenders in the city would not surrender easily, and was thinking about finding a way to exert some pressure, but he saw the city gate wide open, a team of men and horses shouted and rushed out, seeing the men and horses in Yangping Pass rushing out, Sun Ce almost subconsciously waved his hand to signal the army to retreat, retreat and shoot all the way, and always keep a certain distance from Qin Dong's army, so that Qin Dong was more convinced of his judgment, and launched an attack on Sun Ce more and more hard, Zhang Wei saw this scene, and also took advantage of the situation to rush out from the gate, In the direction of Hanzhong,

If Xu Huang personally commanded this cavalry, he would definitely wave his division to meet the enemy, and use the powerful impact of the cavalry to knock the enemy into a horse, but unfortunately Sun Ce did not understand the combat effectiveness of Liu Xin's cavalry, and his combat thinking about cavalry was still in the stage of cavalry shooting, and it was precisely because he blindly kept his cavalry at a distance from the enemy that this gave Zhang Wei the opportunity to rush out, however, the cavalry equipped with strong bows and stirrups performed better in riding and archery, and took Qin Dong's 10,000 horses in circles non-stop, In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand people were shot down, and Qin Dong was so angry that he scolded,

Zhang Wei saw that his men and horses had rushed behind Sun Ce, and he was about to break away from the battle and go straight to Hanzhong, who knew that he suddenly had a whim and wanted to eat Sun Ce's cavalry and then go to rescue Zhang Lu, so he gave an order and led the team to turn around and pounce,

Zhang Biao had been on the battlefield for a long time, and when he saw that his side was being attacked from both sides, he hurriedly grabbed Sun Ce's horse head and said, "General Sun, you can't retreat anymore, hurry up and rush over." ”

Sun Ce was still not very confident about the slashing ability of these cavalry, and he was still a little hesitant in his heart, but Zhang Biao couldn't hold it anymore and shouted: "Brothers, the cavalry charges, come with me." ”

After speaking, Zhang Biao drew his saber, pointed in the direction where Zhang Wei rushed over, and took the lead in killing forward, these cavalry were well-trained, and when they heard Zhang Biao's order, they put away their bows and arrows, and the formation suddenly changed, only to see Zhang Biao burst out in front of him, like an arrow, thousands of people waved their sabers and followed closely behind, forming a huge triangle, which was inserted into Zhang Wei's formation at once, and forcibly tore the formation he had just lined up in half,

At this time, Sun Ce instead fell to the back of this cavalry team, but in the back he saw more clearly, this cavalry showed a hundred times more power than cavalry shooting when rushing to kill, Zhang Guard's team had already been turned on their backs, with countless casualties, and these cavalry were extremely excited after completing a round of slashing and slashing action, just rushed past Zhang Wei's team, as soon as they arrived behind them, under the leadership of Zhang Biao, a gorgeous turn, the entire cavalry team swept through Zhang Wei's army again like a storm, and rushed directly to Qin Dong's formation, splitting his army into pieces, and even Qin Dong himself had died in the chaos.
