Chapter 274

"How many cavalry?"

Su Li asked subconsciously.

"One hundred thousand."

"One hundred thousand!"

Su Li had originally been worried that his own forces would not be enough, and if he were also ambushed by the enemy or plotted against by Dong Zhuo, it would be very uncomfortable.

But Zhang Wen was very generous, actually taking out one hundred thousand cavalry for him, determined to rescue Zhou Shen and Sun Jian.

Very good.

Su Li now had the confidence.

Corpse.

With the one hundred thousand cavalry given by Zhang Wen.

Su Li now had the confidence.

He was no longer afraid of being ambushed or losing troops and generals.

When leaving the camp, his gaze fell on Ju Yi.

"Ju Yi, this is the time for you to submit your letter of allegiance to me. You can choose to betray me during this process and return to the rebel camp."

"But you must think clearly: does following me, an official formally appointed by the imperial court, have a future, or does following a group of rebellious subjects and rebels have a future?"

"Moreover, even if you really break into Chang'an, you will not be able to escape the name of a rebel, and you will always be pointed at by others!"

"Abandon darkness for light, or continue to be a thief; you must choose for yourself!"

Su Li was letting Ju Yi participate in this battle.

Ju Yi's expression fell into a struggle; he had actually thought about pretending to surrender first, and then taking the opportunity to rebel.

But now, hearing Su Li's words, he suddenly felt that abandoning darkness for light was not a bad thing.

Since there was this opportunity, why continue to be a thief.

So Ju Yi finally clasped his fists towards Su Li and said: "My lord, please rest assured; since Ju Yi has decided to follow you, I will not betray you."

That was what he said, but Su Li understood very well that Ju Yi's loyalty was what it was.

If there was an opportunity, the possibility of rebellion was very high.

But now was a time when people were needed, so Su Li could only pat him on the shoulder with satisfaction, and then his gaze swept across the crowd.

"Sister Xiao Yu, Guan Hai, Zhou Cang, each of you lead your troops and follow me into battle."

"All soldiers, listen to my command!"

Zhao Yu, Guan Hai, and Zhou Cang.

Two thousand Blood-Red Dragon Cavalry and tens of thousands of ordinary troops, as well as the one hundred thousand Han army cavalry given by Zhang Wen, stood ready.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

At the order.

The main force began to follow Su Li to launch a charge, attacking the Liangzhou rebels!

The besieged Zhou Shen and Sun Jian had already fallen into a desperate situation, and the elite of the Liangzhou rebels formed battle formations, crazily attacking their two units.

Sun Jian held his spiritual weapon, the Ancient Ingot Saber, and erupted with strength infinitely close to that of a peerless general; the saber light swept through, and the bodies of the enemies were directly cut in two, blood splattering everywhere!

Countless Liangzhou rebels were like cannon fodder under Sun Jian's attack.

However, the number of Liangzhou rebels was simply too great, endless.

Coupled with the special units among them, the Huangzhong Volunteer Hu formed battle formations to contain them.

Even Sun Jian, who was already close to being peerless, was completely suppressed.

Human strength eventually has its limits.

Two fists are no match for four hands.

Not to mention, the enemies Sun Jian faced were far more than four hands.

"I am the Jiangdong Tiger; you lot, wanting to kill me, is impossible!"

Sun Jian let out a violent roar, like a tiger roaring, and a power passed down from the Overlord of Jiangdong erupted; the ordinary rebels around him were actually shaken to death by Sun Jian alive!

"Saber Breaks Mountains and Rivers!"

The edge of the Ancient Ingot Saber shone brightly, and with one slash, a large crack appeared in the ground, sand and dust flew, and countless Liangzhou rebels were buried within!

The saber light was still wandering around, harvesting the enemies who approached.

"The Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian is indeed worthy of his reputation."

Beigong Beigong Boyu and Li Li Wenhou and others stood on a hill, looking down at the Liangzhou rebels besieging Sun Jian.

Sun Jian was now like a boss, besieged by everyone.

They had no generals who could rival Sun Jian, so they could only use absolute numbers to wear Sun Jian to death.

Besides this, there were Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Zu Mao.

They were also heroic and unparalleled, killing countless enemies.

"My lord, there are simply too many enemies; if this continues, even you will be in danger!"

"We will protect you as you break out!"

Cheng Pu unleashed a martial technique, blasted open a path, and shouted to Sun Jian.

"No! If I cannot take the soldiers with me, I, Wentai, even if I escape, what face will I have to see the elders of Jiangdong!"

"We must leave! Everyone leave together!"

"All soldiers, follow me to break out!"

Sun Jian was insistent on taking all the besieged soldiers with him to break out together.

But there were too many enemies; how could they easily break out together?

"Sigh! My lord has given the order, everyone break out together!"

"Follow us and kill our way out!"

The other two great generals of Jiangdong, Han Dang and Zu Mao, also looked at each other helplessly, dancing their large blades wildly, the saber light crisscrossing, killing hundreds of enemies.

The four of them, Sun Jian, served as the vanguard for the breakout, fighting in a bloodbath; the air was filled with blood mist, and the four were thoroughly drenched as bloody men, fighting to the death...

However, the Liangzhou rebels had long since deployed heavy troops; the Huangzhong Volunteer Hu, Xiliang cavalry, and crossbow units crazily prevented Sun Jian and the others from breaking out.

Countless rain of arrows fell into Sun Jian's troops, and countless soldiers under his command died.

"Is it my fate that I, Sun Jian, should die here today?"

"Dong the scoundrel, if I escape alive, I will definitely not rest until you are dead!"

At this time, Sun Jian also knew that he had been pitted by Dong Zhuo.

Until now, he had not seen any sign of Dong Zhuo coming to reinforce them.

He could only use his own courage to kill several of the opponent's generals in succession, making the rebels tremble with fear.

But he was still suppressed by the number of rebels, making it difficult to break out of the encirclement.

Sometimes, troops could instead become a burden for a brave general like Sun Jian.

Perhaps Sun Jian and his subordinate generals Han Dang, Cheng Pu, Zu Mao, and others, by fighting with all their might, had a chance to escape alive.

But the Jiangdong sons he brought, as well as the Han army assigned to him by Zhang Wen, might be completely wiped out.

Perhaps it was the personality passed down from the Overlord of Jiangdong.

Sun Jian could not bear to abandon his subordinates and soldiers to live alone, so he still chose to fight to the death, his injuries becoming increasingly severe.

If this continued.

Even if Sun Jian was not killed by the enemy, he would die from exhaustion and loss of strength due to his severe injuries!

However, it was also at this time.

Step!

Step!

Step!

From somewhere, came the sound of hoofbeats.

And he didn't know if it was Sun Jian's imagination, but when he heard these sounds of hoofbeats, the sky, which had been daylight, was suddenly dyed with a blood-colored aura.
