The 3,000 reinforcements were mainly trapped camps and tiger and leopard cavalry, and both the quality of individual soldiers and weapons and equipment were far stronger than Sun Quan's soldiers.

Although it is not enough to talk about one as ten, but one as five is more than enough, Sun Quan soon paid the price for the encirclement.

The Jiangdong soldiers on the outside were originally like a big handful of chopsticks, and the three thousand Cao Jun were like a small handful of chopsticks.

Closing the enclosure is like scattering the chopsticks, and then going to surround a small handful of chopsticks, the middle chopsticks can always maintain a joint force, while the peripheral chopsticks become weak, and it is easy to be caught and weakly clicked through.

In less than half an hour of the battle, Zhang Liao and Cao Chun tore a few holes, they not only broke through Sun Quan's encirclement, but also cut the Jiangdong soldiers and horses into several pieces, and the difference in battle losses between the two sides was huge.

"How so?"

Sun Quan stood at a high place in the rear and looked out, only to see that Jiangdong Jian'er was like a crop, and it was easy to be cut down by Cao Jun, and Cao Jun was like a tough tree, and it took many people to work together to kill one person.

It's too difficult, this is the elite of Cao Jun?

Zhang Hong was also shocked, and hurriedly offered his advice: "Lord, the combat strength of these three thousand Cao troops is amazing, and we must adjust our strategy immediately, otherwise we will suffer heavy losses." ”

"Does Zigang have a plan to teach me?"

Sun Quan swallowed his saliva, originally pretending to have a calm expression, but he was also a little flustered at this time.

Zhang Hong replied: "The tigers and leopards are well-equipped, they are all warriors who are one in a million, and those foot soldiers don't look easy to mess with, and the lord is afraid that it is not enough to be surrounded by 10,000 people."

"And then?"

Sun Quan frowned, and said in his heart that you know that the tiger and leopard ride is not easy to mess with, why didn't you remind me just now? Now that we are in this situation, it will be very difficult to adjust.

Zhang Hongzhengse suggested: "I can only send an order to General Xu, let him give up the siege for the time being, mobilize all the soldiers and horses as soon as possible, swallow these 3,000 elite soldiers first, and then it is not too late to conquer Shouchun." ”

Sun Quan hesitated: "Withdraw the soldiers who are attacking the city, and then gather the army to rush to the east of the city, I don't know how many hours it will take, I am worried that the soldiers will not be able to withstand it."

"It's better to shrink the formation immediately and slowly fight and walk in the direction of the south gate of Shouchun, so that you can meet the main force faster."

Zhang Hong didn't have time to think about it, so he made a stupid move.

Sun Quan was worried that once he retreated, Zhang Liao's elite army would enter the city and make the capture of Shouchun come to naught, so he did not agree immediately, but continued to ask: "If the enemy takes advantage of the chaos to escape into the east gate of Shouchun, won't our efforts in the past few months be in vain?" ”

"Ugh"

Zhang Hong thought so, he thought about it for a while, and then replied: "There is no food in Shouchun City, Zhang Liao and Cao Chun, three thousand people, who are not carrying baggage, how many days can they eat with their rations?" If the lord is still not at ease, he can send someone to entangle them so that they cannot easily enter the city. ”

"Good."

When Sun Quan and Zhang Hong were discussing, the situation on the battlefield changed slightly, and the Jiangdong soldiers were suppressed by the morale of Cao's army.

Tiger and leopard ride, Cao Jun is elite, really powerful.

One day, I, Sun Quan, will also raise such soldiers, and raise elite soldiers who can help me sweep the world.

Sun Quan sent a number of heralds, on the one hand, to the south of the city where Xu Kun was located, and on the other hand, to the generals and captains on the front line, ordering the whole army to fight and leave the south gate of Shouchun.

The order to fight and go was vague, and the generals and lieutenants on the front line could not clearly convey it to the troops, and some officers understood it as a retreat to the south of Shouchun City.

As a result, some of the troops gave up the battle and retreated to the southwest, and then affected the whole army like dominoes.

Seeing that Sun Quan's people retreated inexplicably, Zhang Liao, who was covered in blood, was overjoyed, and immediately asked the soldiers of the Cao army to shout slogans in unison.

"The Jiangdong rats have been defeated."

"They're on the run"

"Capture Sun Quan and capture Lord Wu alive"

Countless heart-wrenching words were shouted, and the Jiangdong soldiers suddenly panicked, turning from an orderly retreat to a brainless run, and the generals and soldiers were also disconnected due to the chaos.

Seeing that the Jiangdong army was about to be defeated, Zhang Liao immediately led his troops to chase and cover up, so that the battle that was originally evenly matched turned into a lions chasing hyenas.

Zhang Hongxian was in a hurry, Sun Quan was not familiar with the battle, and he was basically a layman commanding an insider, and the order he took for granted just now made the battlefield fall into decline in an instant.

The shouts of 'Seize Sun Quan and capture Lord Wu alive' continued, and Sun Quan could only flee with panic and anxiety, and had no ability to stop the chaos of the army.

At the critical moment, Ji Ling beheaded a few deserters to stabilize his position, and shouted at the people around him:

"Don't panic, we are not defeated, follow me to block Cao Jun."

The coverage of the battle between the two armies was too large, and Ji Ling's influence on killing the deserter Liwei was limited, but because of the 'outlierous' performance, he was targeted by the enemy's main general, Zhang Liao.

Zhang Liao motioned to Cao Chun to pursue Sun Quan, and he led a team of men and horses to take Ji Ling directly.

"Ji Lingxiu is leaving, Zhang Liao is here!"

"Zhang Liao, you are crazy."

The two broadswords collided and sparks sparked, and the two generals fought for their lives again.

Zhang Liao's strength is endless, and the more he fights, the more courageous he becomes, while Ji Ling is a little out of strength because of the fighting general in front of the battle just now, and the nearly hour he killed the enemy just now, his body has reached the end of the strong crossbow.

After only three or four rounds of fighting, Ji Ling was unable to resist Zhang Liao's offensive.

At the moment of life and death, Ji Ling forgot his bold words just now, turned the horse's head and immediately fled to the rear.

No matter what outsiders say, Ji Ling just wants to survive at this time, he knows that no matter how hard he tries, he will not be able to become a henchman of the Sun family, and it is impossible for the generals to have such treatment.

Seeing that the Lord would be the first to flee for his life, the surrounding soldiers went up and down, scrambling to be the first to flee.

Zhang Liao saw that Ji Ling's strength was exhausted, so he didn't plan to leak the opportunity to others, so he chased after him with a knife.

As the so-called hard work pays off, Ji Ling galloped wildly and accidentally knocked down a subordinate, and the mount was slightly hindered, but it was so slightly sluggish that it was caught up by the 'hunter' Zhang Liao.

"Ji Ling suffers death!"

The sound of thunder shook his eardrums, Ji Ling suddenly felt a chill in his neck, and his last consciousness felt like the world was spinning, and he was beheaded by Zhang Liao under the horse.

The news of Ji Ling's death spread like a plague, and the Jiangdong soldiers fled even more frantically after hearing this, and soon gave way to the east gate of Shouchun.

In the face of the momentum of the big victory, how could Zhang Liao and Cao Chun meet and enter the city?

The two led the army to chase and kill, and Jiang Dong Erlang, who was originally like an anal hyena, had become an antelope without a way to fight back, and it was a one-sided hunt.

Just like Xiahou Yuan's prophecy in Dangtu, Zhang Liao has become a nightmare for Jiangdong people at this moment.

Xiahoudun on the city tower looked enthusiastic, and said that this is the strength of Cao Ying's soldiers, he urgently returned to the south of the city to continue to command the defense, but found that the enemy besieging the city was retreating one after another, and the soldiers defending the city were sitting and gasping for breath to rest.

Qin Yi stepped forward: "General Xiahou, how is the situation in the east of the city?" These Jiangdong rats suddenly stopped attacking"

"The two generals, Zhang and Cao, are winning more with less, and they are chasing Sun Quan to cover up here at the moment."

"Great."

Qin Yi was just excited for a moment, and immediately reminded with a stiff face: "It's not good, Ximen was also withdrawing inexplicably just now, they should be going to support Sun Quan, after all, our reinforcements are only 3,000, and no matter how brave they are, they can't defeat Jiangdong's 30,000."

"Then you can't sit still."

Xiahou frowned, and said to Qin Yi: "You can't just do it, I'll give you five hundred people to defend the city, let the rest of the living soldiers in the city gather as soon as possible, and immediately follow me out of the city to kill the enemy." ”
