Just when the four generals wanted to persuade Sun Jian, their expressions suddenly changed, because they all heard the sound of rapid horse hooves coming from the front. Based on their many years of experience on the battlefield, they judged that the people rushing in front were at least
There are also more than 8,000 people!
"Lord!" Cheng Pu immediately clapped his horse and came forward to remind Sun Jian.
However, Sun Jian raised his head early and looked straight ahead. His face was no longer confused and decadent. If Sun Jian was really so easy to be knocked down, he would not be worthy of the title of Jiangdong Tiger! Even if he is
He nodded, waved his hand, stopped Cheng Pu's words, and shouted: "I have heard it! Pass the order! The entire army forms a defensive formation!"
Sun Jian gave the military order, and Cheng Pu and other four generals immediately passed on Sun Jian's military order. Jiangdong Army immediately arranged a square formation, with swordsmen holding shields in front and archers behind with bows and arrows. Sun Jian and Cheng
The four generals all looked ahead nervously, waiting for the soldiers and horses ahead who did not know whether they were enemies or friends!
Soon, a group of troops appeared at the official road in front. It seemed that the number must be larger than Sun Jian's Jiangdong Army! Sun Jian and others frowned. Obviously, there can be such a large number of troops in Yangzhou, only
Only the troops of Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, were possible! But Sun Jian and Liu Yao had no enmity in the past and have no enmity in recent times. Why did Liu Yao always want to cause trouble for himself? Although he couldn't figure out the reason, Sun Jian did not dare to let down his guard.
As early as when Chen Liu participated in the alliance, Sun Jian had already noticed that the atmosphere among the Guandong princes was subtle! The Han world was probably going to be in chaos!
After a while, the group of people in front gradually revealed their true colors. Looking at the opponent's military flag, they were indeed Liu Yao's men! Luo Yang narrowed his eyes and raised the ancient ingot knife in his hand, signaling to the soldiers and horses behind him to be ready at any time.
, then shouted loudly: "Stop the soldiers and horses in front!"
"Stop!" The soldiers and horses in front were obedient and stopped nearly five hundred steps away from Sun Jian. Looking at the densely packed soldiers and horses on the other side, Sun Jian's face couldn't help but darken. Not only Sun Jian, but also Cheng behind Sun Jian.
Not many of the four generals had good-looking faces! I saw a general riding a tall horse walking out from the soldiers and horses in front, holding a long spear, and shouted at Sun Jian: "I am Zhang Ying, the general under Lord Liu, the governor of Yangzhou!"
You dare to lead troops across Yangzhou territory without permission! Why don’t you surrender quickly and accept your punishment!"
Sun Jian's face suddenly turned livid, and he soon understood what the other party was planning! Obviously Liu Yao wanted to take advantage of Sun Jian's passing by Yangzhou to swallow up Sun Jian's troops! Five thousand Jiangdong Army! Then
What a big piece of fat! No wonder Liu Yao is tempted!
But Sun Jian was not a fat sheep to be slaughtered! Immediately, Sun Jian shouted coldly: "Zhang Ying! Don't talk nonsense! I am Sun Jian, the Marquis of Wucheng! I was ordered by the king to attack Buchen! Now I am passing by Yangzhou, what are you doing?
Dare you take action against me?" Although Sun Jian resigned from the post of governor of Changsha, his title as Marquis of Wucheng is real!
Among the Yangzhou army on the opposite side, there seemed to be some commotion when they heard Sun Jian's words! The general Zhang Ying sent by Liu Yao did not expect to encounter him, but he turned out to be Sun Jian, the fierce tiger from the east of the Yangtze River! This was really unexpected.
Zhang Ying expected it!
Originally, Zhang Ying's master Liu Yao heard that a troop of about 5,000 soldiers and horses was passing through Yangzhou, and Liu Yao became interested. When Cao Cao called for an alliance last year, as the governor of Yangzhou and a clan member of the Han Dynasty,
Of course, Liu Yao also received Cao Cao's edict. However, Liu Yao did not send troops to respond. The reason was naturally very simple. The world was in chaos. Of course Liu Yao could see that. In order to prepare for the coming troubled times, Liu Yao must
Save your strength!
Moreover, there was another reason why Liu Yao did not move the army. As a clan member of the Han Dynasty, how could he not have any thoughts about that superior position? Liu Yao even secretly thought in his heart, if Dong Zhuo gave that emperor to
It would be great to kill him! Maybe he will have a chance to compete by then! Of course, this idea only came up deep in Liu Yao's heart, and he never mentioned it to anyone.
In short, Liu Yao, who did not participate in the alliance, heard that such a troop of five thousand troops had arrived from Yanzhou. His first reaction was to stop this troop and expand it to his own team!
Originally, in Liu Yao's mind, this 5,000-man army must be the defeated army returning from Luoyang. Liu Yao didn't know very clearly about the battle situation in Luoyang. He only knew that it was not going very smoothly. Then
Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army was notoriously fierce. It was not surprising that such a defeated army retreated in defeat. That's why Zhang Ying was sent with nearly ten thousand people to intercept. But Liu Yao never expected it.
, the five thousand soldiers and horses that I thought would be easily captured turned out to be the soldiers and horses of Sun Jian, a tiger!
As soon as he heard that it was Sun Laohu in front of him, Zhang Ying immediately felt timid. Sun Jian's hometown is in Jiangdong, and it is only separated from Yangzhou by the Yangtze River. Zhang Ying knew a lot about some of Sun Jian's deeds. This Sun Jian was
But he is famous for his bravery! Zhang Ying is not sure that he can defeat Sun Jian! If Liu Yao's military order hadn't been placed on his head, he would have turned around and ran away!
"General, general! What should we do?" A sergeant from the Yangzhou Army behind Zhang Ying asked with a trembling voice. This sergeant was from Jiangdong and knew more about Sun Jian's reputation. Then
Both legs were dangling.
"Afraid, what are you afraid of!" Zhang Ying suppressed the fear in his heart and shouted angrily. He glanced at the nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses behind him and felt a little more at ease. He waved his spear, pointed at Sun Jian in front and shouted: "Sun Jian
So what! He only has five thousand people! We have tens of thousands of people! Twice as many as them! We can still defeat them!"
Zhang Ying's shout temporarily calmed down the morale of the army, and at the same time encouraged himself. Yes! What about Sun Lao Lao? I have more soldiers and horses than you now! If you don't surrender, I will beat you.
You surrender! Zhang Ying was cruel and waved his spear directly at Sun Jian in front of him and shouted: "Sun Jian? What proof do you have that you are Sun Jian? Then Sun Jian is the governor of Changsha, why did he go to the border of Yangzhou again?
Come? Huh! I think you are a traitor with evil intentions! Stop making excuses! Why don’t you surrender quickly!"
Zhang Ying was smart, but he didn't admit that the other party was Sun Jian. In this way, it was logically sound and he wasn't afraid of causing trouble to Liu Yao! Sun Jian couldn't help but snorted after hearing this, and turned to Cheng Pu behind him.
He sneered: "This guy named Zhang Ying is quite smart! He's obviously here to rob, but he actually knows how to wear a hat for himself!"
Cheng Pu chuckled and said to Sun Jian: "My lord! I have heard of this general Zhang Ying. He is one of Liu Yao's generals! It seems that Liu Yao is determined to get these five thousand Jiangdong disciples under us.
ah!"
"Humph!" Sun Jian sneered a few more times, turned his head, looked at the Yangzhou army formation in the distance with a mocking look on his face, and hummed: "You want us Jiangdong children to work hard for Liu Yao? Then we have to look at him too.
Does Liu Yao have that ability? Pass the order and attack!"
"The whole army attacks!" Before, Sun Jian didn't know where the opponent was coming from, and he was cautious in setting up defensive formations. Now he knows that the opponent is the Yangzhou Army, and he is still looking for trouble. Sun Jian, the tiger, was previously trapped in Chenliu and Hulao Pass.
Now all his anger was vented on Zhang Ying! The four generals Cheng Pu also shouted angrily after hearing Sun Jian's order, especially the most bellicose Zu Mao, who took the lead and led his troops towards
The Yangzhou Army in front rushed over!
Jiang Dongjun's charge made Zhang Ying dumbfounded! Who was going to hit whom? Why didn't he shout for a fight, but the other party rushed over first? This made Zhang Ying a little confused and hurried.
Commanding the soldiers and horses behind him to form an array! But when the Jiangdong Army charged, not only Zhang Ying was in chaos, but even the soldiers of the Yangzhou Army were frightened. A few were timid and even threw away their weapons on the spot.
Lost it, just turned around and ran away!
When Zhang Ying saw him, he shouted loudly: "Don't run! Don't run! Everyone line up for me! Line up to meet the enemy! Damn it! Didn't you hear what I said!" While shouting, he waved his spear.
He stabbed several soldiers who were about to turn around and flee.
In any case, Zhang Ying's tough tactics finally restored some momentum for the Yangzhou Army. Before Jiangdong's army arrived, he took the lead in setting up a defensive formation. However, Zhang Ying learned smartly and saw that the formation was not good.
, slapped his horse and dodged towards the military formation, and hid directly in the military formation. Just kidding! That tiger Sun Jian is not easy to mess with! Let Zhang Ying take the lead to deal with Sun Jian? The three Zhang Yings may not belong to Sun Jian.
Opponent! Don’t kill your opponent in just one round!
The first person to be killed was Zu Mao. With one move of his sword, Zu Mao slashed down the Yangzhou Army in front of him! Those Yangzhou Army soldiers were no match for Zu Mao.
, on the spot, three round heads flew into the air, and the blood sprayed directly on Zu Mao's body. As soon as the battle started, Zu Mao was covered in blood, and he looked very scary!
"Hoo! Kill!" The blood was sprayed on his face, and the unique fishy smell of blood hit his nostrils. On the contrary, it aroused Zu Mao's ferocity, and the ring-headed knife kept flying up and down at Zu Mao's left and right.
, each time it always killed several Yangzhou Army soldiers. With Zu Mao taking the lead, the Jiangdong Army soldiers following Zu Mao also had their morale greatly boosted. They raised their weapons one after another and launched an attack on the enemy in front!
Sun Jian and the other three generals who were following Zu Mao were even more excited when they saw it. Sun Jian sprinted on his horse, raised his ancient ingot sword and shouted at the three generals behind him: "We can't let Da Rong be alone.
