Chapter 345
Sun Quan had already summarized the lessons of Sun Ce's repeated defeats to Liu Bei: don't talk nonsense with Liu Bei!
"And don't duel, don't duel, repeat three times!"
Also, don't be dragged by Liu Bei to waste time; if the sun sets, it will be disadvantageous for him.
Sun Quan said loudly,
"Liu Bei, I have nothing to say to you. You occupied my Yuzhang for no reason, and now you are attacking my Lujiang. Today we must determine the winner!"
Liu Bei roared,
"Sun Quan, you have been defeated repeatedly, and many in Jiangdong do not submit to you. You attacked Sun Gao, imprisoned Sun Ben and Sun Fu, and this time you came to attack Li Shu. There will be more in the future."
Zhang Fei's voice was even louder,
"Exactly, if you can't do it, don't lead Jiangdong. Who submits to you?"
"Your third brother was killed, and you didn't even go to avenge him, instead letting his un-married sister-in-law avenge him. Aren't you ashamed?!"
Sun Quan was furious at being told this!
Xing Daorong also shouted,
"Sun Quan, you little pup, come out quickly. I will surely take your head in three moves!"
"I am the Xing Daorong who Sun Ce, Dong Xi, and Ling Chao joined forces to fight last time!"
"Don't dare to come out? Then just send anyone out!"
The generals had already received Sun Quan's strict order not to duel, so naturally, no one answered!
Xing Daorong said loudly,
"No way, the Jiangdong soldiers were so valiant when Sun Ce was here. Sun Quan, you turned everyone into cowards as soon as you arrived?!"
Too heartbreaking!
Sun Quan's soldiers all had dark faces. Although Xing Daorong spoke rudely, it seemed there was some truth to it...
The live broadcast room's barrage also increased,
"Sun Quan is so pitiful, Zhang Fei and Xing Daorong are both masters of verbal abuse!"
"Don't be cowardly, just charge!"
"This is a psychological war. Whoever loses their temper and loses their mind might fail!"
"My Brother Bei is calm and composed, and seems to have no pressure at all dealing with Sun Quan!"
This time Sun Quan added Le Jin's eighty thousand soldiers, claiming twelve thousand,
He had great confidence in defeating Liu Bei,
"Three against one, and I can't win? How is that possible?"
Sun Quan gritted his teeth. This round-faced general Xing Daorong, he must kill him!
Zhuge Jin cupped his hands,
"Lord, don't argue with them. Just use regular troops to defeat them!"
Sun Quan nodded,
"Good! Send troops according to the original plan!"
"Woo~ Roo~"
The sound of war drums rose suddenly, and the sound of horns rang out long,
Sun Quan's army marched toward Liu Bei's army with neat steps!
"Kill!"
Liu Bei's three men turned their horses and returned to the army formation,
The soldiers began to prepare to meet the enemy,
Wei Yan led six thousand troops against Le Jin's twenty thousand troops!
Taishi Ci also led six thousand troops to face the Lujiang elite led by Chen Wu and Dong Xi,
Liu Bei, Chen Dao, and others led nine thousand men to deal with Sun Quan's thirty thousand center army!
Sun Quan still had ten thousand soldiers guarding him.
Both sides fired a few volleys of arrows at each other,
Arrows rained down,
The sky seemed to be covered by arrows, a black mass.
Both sides had many soldiers hit by arrows, screaming and wailing,
Liu Bei's three-shot crossbows were naturally superior to Sun Quan's, causing more than twice the damage to their own side!
The sound of horns on Sun Quan's side became more urgent, and the soldiers in the front row raised their shields and charged toward this side regardless of their lives.
Soon both sides clashed in close quarters, colliding head-on!
The soldiers' shouts,
The fierce sound of weapons clashing,
The neighing of warhorses!
The soldiers' dying screams, all intertwined together,
Both sides seemed to have entered a life-and-death struggle from the beginning. There could only be one winner on this battlefield, and the losing side could only suffer a crushing defeat!
Sun Quan looked at the scene of the fighting in front, feeling emotional about the elite nature of Liu Bei's soldiers and the excellence of their armor and weapons,
"Our army is three times his, yet we are still tied..."
Strategists like Zhang Zhao and Zhuge Jin also frowned, but thought in their hearts,
"This is the vast majority of our Jiangdong's combat power, and Liu Bei only brought twenty-plus thousand side troops. He still has hundreds of thousands of troops, how can our army block him?"
Sun Quan seemed to notice these people's thoughts and laughed,
"As long as our army defeats Liu Bei in this battle, his prestige will be damaged, and the feudal lords who do not submit to him will crusade together, and Liu Bei will surely fail!"
The battlefield gradually fell into a stalemate. Although Liu Bei's soldiers were brave, it was very difficult to defeat the opponent one against three.
Everything was developing in the direction of Sun Quan's expectations, consuming Liu Bei's troops, slowly nibbling away, and even if Liu Bei didn't suffer a crushing defeat, he could only run away with his cavalry.
Defeating Liu Bei, his prestige would soar, and no one in Yangzhou would dare to question him again.
Sun Quan was still imagining the future.
Suddenly, on the side of the battlefield,
The sound of hooves like dense drums suddenly rang out,
Sun Quan looked, and there were three cavalry units, about a thousand men each, bypassing the battlefield and charging toward his center army!
"Three thousand men want to impact my center army of ten thousand? Is this Liu Bei's trump card?"
"Order Sun Shao, Pan Zhang, and Ma Zhong to meet them!"
"Understood!"
Soon,
Six thousand soldiers on Sun Quan's side met them!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Liu Bei's cavalry quickly took down the crossbows behind their backs and fired all three crossbow bolts,
Sun Quan's soldiers were caught off guard, being shot and killed in large numbers, creating several gaps,
The sound of hooves shook, and the horns sounded urgently,
Zhang Fei, Ma Chao, and Zhang Zhang Liao's three cavalry units formed a wedge formation and plunged into several gaps!
With a boom,
The entire formation of Sun Quan's soldiers seemed to be shaken,
These three cavalry units were exceptionally elite, charging all the way with full impact!
Zhang Fei roared, his Serpent Spear flipping up and down, and wherever he passed, people were turned over, with no one being his enemy.
Pan Zhang went up to intercept, but was hit by Zhang Fei in a few moves and vomited blood. Fortunately, his guards protected him with their lives!
Ma Zhong hid in the army, nocked an arrow to his bow, and shot an arrow at Zhang Fei!
This guy was cunning and known as the terminator of great generals,
Historically, he set an ambush to capture Guan Yu and also injured Huang Zhong with a hidden arrow. His archery was also excellent.
Zhang Fei was killing with excitement, his hearing was not bad, and he heard the sound of the arrow breaking through the air, hurriedly leaning to one side,
The arrow did not hit a vital spot, but shot Zhang Fei in the shoulder!
