In this dense jungle, Yuan Yao's army launched a thrilling ambush battle. The foliage and trunks of the dense forest provided natural cover, allowing Yuan Yao's soldiers to quickly conceal their figures, while the archers were able to aim at the enemy more accurately.

A rain of arrows whistled down from above, shrouding everything in the jungle in shadow.

The soldiers around Sun Ce dodged one after another, but the rain of arrows came too suddenly, and many people were still in a state of panic and surprise.

I didn't expect to be ambushed by enemy troops in this place.

The rain of arrows poured down, and countless arrows pierced through the dense vegetation and trees, instantly hitting the ambushed Sun Ce's army, and the soldiers under Sun Ce's command had to stand up in the rain of arrows and began to use their shields to avoid the damage of the arrows.

And some soldiers without shields can only panic and look for cover to avoid being hit by arrows.

As the rain of arrows gradually stopped, Yuan Yao's men and horses finally rushed out from the rear, and the two armies began a fierce hand-to-hand fight, and the soldiers picked up the swords and guns in their hands and launched a fearless attack. In the ghostly battle, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the land was covered with all kinds of weapons, blood, and body fragments.

Sun Ce's men and horses, after all, were all elites, and after a short period of panic, Sun Ce organized a large army, quickly stabilized the formation, and began to fight with Yuan Yao's men and horses.

However, in just a moment, Sun Ce realized that the soldiers under his command had been pursuing for a long time, and they had no rest at all, and their physical strength was seriously consumed, and they were suddenly ambushed, and their morale was greatly hit, and in the face of the high morale of Yuan Yao's army, they were at a disadvantage.

Obviously, after being ambushed, it has become very difficult for his soldiers to defeat the enemy, especially the elite enemy.

After Sun Ce defeated a few enemy soldiers, more and more enemy troops appeared on the left and right.

Seeing that his own soldiers and horses began to suffer more and more casualties, Sun Ce's face was already gloomy.

Sun Ben and Huang Gai appeared at Sun Ce's side and began to persuade Sun Ce to retreat.

"Young master, we are surrounded by enemy troops, and we can't continue to fight."

"The enemy is prepared, there are enough men, we are ambushed, the soldiers are panicked, they have been dispatching non-stop, and we can't continue to stalemate with the enemy."

"Withdraw, withdraw to Wanling County, and we will have the strength to fight!"

Sun Ben and Huang Gai persuaded Sun Ce on the side.

Sun Ce had no choice but to do so, although Yuan Yao was right in front of him, but the soldiers around him were even more noble, and it was a blood loss to die a single death, and it was difficult to repel Yuan Yao under such circumstances.

Instead of being here, fighting Yuan Yao and putting himself in danger, it is better to retreat temporarily and save time in order to fight again in the future.

At this moment, suddenly a crisp shout sounded in the distance: "The enemy is completely surrounded by us!" Can't let them run! ”

Such a voice spread on the battlefield, and it made the soldiers under Sun Ce's command fall again like they were struck by lightning, and the morale of the soldiers under Sun Ce's command, which was not high, fell again.

"Withdraw!"

Sun Ce glanced at Yuan Yao hatefully and gave the order to retreat.

Being ambushed and suffering in front of Yuan Yao again, this was a great shame for Sun Ce.

was steadily pressed by Yuan Yao twice in a row, Sun Ce's teeth itched with hatred, but the more he wanted to regain face in front of Yuan Yao, the easier it was to mess up and be seized by Yuan Yao.

In the first wave of confrontation, Sun Ce lost several hundred men again, so he had to retreat in disarray.

did not dare to continue the pursuit.

And Yuan Yao watched Sun Ce take his men and horses and retreat decisively from the battlefield, and did not give the order to continue the pursuit.

It's not that Yuan Yao doesn't want to take advantage of Sun Ce's loss to defeat Sun Ce's elite in one fell swoop, it's just that he asked himself, at present, he doesn't have that strength.

Although Sun Ce fell for his ambush plan, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and there were many elite generals under Sun Ce's command, if he really resisted desperately, it would not be easy for Yuan Yao's men and horses to control Sun Ce.

What's more, Sun Ce has gathered a lot of soldiers and horses from Wanling County, and he already has more troops than Yuan Yao.

It was because he ambushed Sun Ce just now that he leveled the gap between the two sides, otherwise the outcome of this big battle would be unpredictable.

"Master, Sun Ce's men have withdrawn, should we send someone to chase after you?"

"Poor Kou Mo chase, Sun Ce is not a small person after all, the background is still there, although we fell into our ambush plan, but we don't have more strength to pursue him."

"The top priority is to withdraw to Moling County first, recuperate temporarily, and wait for our reinforcements."

"As soon as the reinforcements arrive, come and confront Sun Ce head-on."

Yuan Yao looked at the thousands of soldiers and horses behind him, it was obviously not a good time to fight with Sun Ce.

Hearing this, Liu Ye nodded, and didn't speak again, in fact, he didn't recommend Yuan Yao to chase after him.

In this way, after Sun Ce withdrew, Yuan Yao also quickly took the remnants of his men and horses and continued to retreat, keeping up with the footsteps of Zheng Bao and Zu Lang.

In just two days, most of the soldiers and horses were withdrawn to Moling County.

In Moling County, Zheng Bao and Zu Lang still have palpitations.

As soon as they thought that Sun Ce had already been with Wu Jinghui in the city, they had a big head, but this time fortunately it was Yuan Yao who reminded them early, otherwise if they continued to stay in Wanling County, there would definitely be only a dead end.

However, after this incident, Zheng Bao and Zu Lang admired Yuan Yao more and more.

Yuan Yao learned that Sun Ce had entered the city, but instead of fleeing by himself, in order to cover them to leave first, he took his men and horses to stay behind and help them buy time.

This made Zu Lang and Zheng Bao both awe-inspired.

For Yuan Yao's character, it has improved a lot of levels.

After returning to Moling County, Zheng Bao immediately sent someone to inquire about Yuan Yao's news.

I'm afraid that something will happen to Yuan Yao.

Fortunately, the news came quickly, Yuan Yao ambushed the soldiers and horses in the back, and inflicted a heavy blow on Sun Ce, Yuan Yao was okay and returned to Moling.

As soon as they returned, Zheng Bao and Zu Lang immediately came to visit.

"Childe, childe."

Zheng Bao ran to Yuan Yao crying.

"You can be regarded as coming back, if you don't come back early, how can I go back and explain to Your Majesty, little old man."

"Childe's righteousness, in order to cover our retreat, he actually stayed behind and broke off, from today on, my grandfather's life is Childe's!"

Zu Lang also expressed his loyalty to Yuan Yao.

Yuan Yao looked at the two of them with a smile of relief on his face.

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not back well, and Sun Ce is just like that."

"By the way, I have another good thing to tell you, that Sun Ce was ambushed by me, and once again lost some manpower, in a short period of time, it should not pose much of a threat to us."
