The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

But thinking about it at this time, it is normal to have this thing. After all, Liu Zheng came here to attack the county town of Kuaiji County this time. How could he attack the county town of Kuaiji County without some siege weapons?

"Damn it, since Liu Zheng is hiding something like a trebuchet, it will be a little more troublesome for us to attack."

"It doesn't matter, second brother, once Liu Yao's men arrive, we will have [-] troops and set fire to his camp. I don't believe he won't come out. As long as he comes out and fights us close, those trebuchets will be destroyed." If it is useless, it is impossible for him to disregard the casualties of his own people."

Sun Jing was not worried, and immediately explained to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian wanted to give Liu Zheng some color now, but at this time because of these catapults, he was still unable to do anything to Liu Zheng, so he could only endure it temporarily.

"Well then, just wait for Liu Yao's men."

The two sides came to open a distance again and confronted each other.

Although Liu Zheng's two throws caused some damage to Sun Jian's army, but there were not many corpses left on the scene. Liu Zheng knew that although Sun Jian retreated, the casualties were not serious, and there were no injuries.

Such an advantage is not enough for Liu Zheng's men to pursue him, but it is also what Liu Zheng wants to make Sun Jian fearful and delay the battle.

"Gan Ning, has the news passed to Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai?"

"My lord, I have sent them a message before, but according to the distance, it must take a while for them to know, and it will take time to rush over."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, people like Sun Jian will not dare to continue to attack in a while. We just wait for Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to come over. They are our hidden trump cards. As long as 1 of them arrive at our place, Sun Jian There are still some reinforcements, and it is impossible to take us down in a short time."

"At that time, Yan Baihu will lead tens of thousands of soldiers and horses to attack Fuchun. Fuchun's small manpower will not be able to prevent Yan Baihu's attack. Yan Baihu can take down Fuchun in a day or two If all the members of the family are captured, I don’t think Sun Jian will give in when the time comes!”

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he quietly waited here.

In fact, it didn't take long to wait. Soon, Liu Zheng heard it. Outside, some voices and figures appeared outside Liu Zheng's camp one after another.

At first glance, there are at least 2 reinforcements from Kuaiji County.

2 people is not a small number. With the addition of Sun Jian's headquarters, there are [-] enemy troops in this place at once. The nearby flat river can no longer accommodate so many people. .

Liu Zheng's camp isn't too good either, it's just a simple pile of wooden walls and some stones. Such a simple device, if the enemy wants to attack by force, it is almost impossible to block it.

"Attention everyone, Sun Jian's reinforcements have arrived. Presumably with these reinforcements, they will attack us soon. We must block his first wave of attacks, and then when the camp is about to be broken, you can choose Retreat, join Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's men, and launch a counterattack at that time!"

To be honest, Liu Zheng at this time is not very sure that he can use more than 1 people at this time to block Sun Jian's 4 people.

After all, it was an enemy army several times larger than his own. Although there was a simple camp for defense, the gap in numbers could not be avoided.

Of course, Liu Zheng wasn't too worried. After all, it wasn't that easy for Sun Jian to defeat him in a short time.

Just as Liu Zheng's side had just become vigilant, Sun Jian's side had already started to act.

Perhaps it was the arrival of Liu Yao's reinforcements, which gave Sun Jian some courage. It should not be too late. Sun Jian was also worried that the longer the matter was delayed, the more unfavorable it would be for them.

So after Fan Neng arrived with 2 troops, he immediately urged Fan Neng and his soldiers to increase the intensity of the siege.

Soon they were approaching the outside of the camp again. Liu Zheng knew that they wanted to attack, so he ordered his trebuchets to continue shooting outside without hesitation.

The swishing stones flew up, and when they fell again, they hit the ground, causing some losses to Sun Jian and Fan Neng's troops.

Chapter 345 The Plan of Fire Attack

But this time, the soldiers and horses under Sun Jian's command were not frightened by the attacks of these catapults. Perhaps they had been psychologically prepared for a long time, or the arrival of reinforcements gave these people greater confidence that they could defeat Liu Bei. fighting troops.

After resisting a round of catapult projections, after killing and injuring hundreds of soldiers, those Sun Jian's men finally approached Liu Zheng's camp. .

At the same time, at this time, some of Sun Jian's men carrying timber and haystacks began to throw these haystacks into the camp.

Sun Jian's people had already placed a lot of firewood outside the camp. Liu Zheng had already guessed what Sun Jian wanted to do before. Now that the wood was moved out, it was more certain that Sun Jian planned to use fire to attack. .

On Liu Zheng's side, Sun Jian had already ordered his men to set fire before he could figure out how to deal with it.

Several archers with bows and arrows immediately ignited the flames on the arrows, and then shot directly at the haystacks that had been placed in advance.

These dry haystacks are very suitable for lighting fires in such a hot summer day. As soon as the flames on the arrows fell around the haystacks, thick smoke immediately rose, and then the flames burned at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In an instant, the surrounding area of ​​Liu Zheng's camp had been covered.

Liu Zheng thought that Sun Jian's men would launch a general attack on Liu Zheng at this time, but he didn't expect that Sun Jian was so insidious that he didn't attack with all his strength at all, but started with a wave of fire.

The fire was quickly blown by the wind and burned the entire outside of the camp. Liu Zheng originally wanted to fight Sun Jian here, but it became impossible.

They could only order to retreat and evacuate from the camp. The three gates of the camp were blocked and surrounded, only the southern exit was not surrounded by Sun Jian's men.

So the way to retreat is also simple, just let your own people start to shrink gradually towards the south, form an array directly, and leave from the camp.

Of course, Liu Zheng also knew that Sun Jian deliberately left a mouth to stop besieging. chase.

Sure enough, when Liu Zheng was in the camp and began to shrink the line of defense and let the soldiers and horses leave the camp from the south, Sun Jian's soldiers and horses outside the camp also began to change.

At the beginning, some soldiers and horses stationed on both sides began to gradually shift, moving towards the southern exit, and then a large number of soldiers and horses flocked frantically to the southern entrance.

Liu Zheng took advantage of the fire and started to evacuate from the camp. At the same time, he was approached by Sun Jian's army. Half of the troops evacuated out of the camp, while the other half were still in the camp.

Sun Jian's men were killed at this moment.

"Gan Ning, take five thousand soldiers and block these enemy troops first!"

Immediately after seeing Sun Jian's pursuers, Liu Zheng gave Gan Ning an order, and at the same time let Su Fei continue to evacuate with the rest of the people.

If he fought against Sun Jian's soldiers at this time, he would be at a disadvantage. Not only would he not gain any advantage, but it might cause most of the soldiers to be buried here.

Liu Zheng has never fought such uncertain battles, so naturally the first thing he thought of was to withdraw temporarily.

Sun Jing and Fan Neng, each with [-] troops, came from the left and right of the south gate of the camp. The [-] troops were already more than Liu Zheng had in this camp.

The momentum alone is already a bit scary, but Gan Ning is also a person who is used to this kind of big scene, and he didn't feel afraid just because the other party was crowded, but also at this time, led the most powerful team under his command. Some of the elite soldiers and horses met Fan Neng's [-] troops and killed them.

On the other side of Sun Jing's army, Liu Zheng could only let Wenpin lead a part of the troops to temporarily contain them.

In this way, while fighting, retreating, Liu Zheng lost more than 3000 people at the cost, and finally evacuated from the camp completely. With a group of people, he evacuated ten miles away. Still chasing.

After eliminating 3000 people from Liu Zheng, Sun Jian only lost more than 2000 people, and drove Liu Zheng's army away in embarrassment. This is a great victory for Sun Jian.

He was also dazzled by this victory, and kept urging Fan Neng and Sun Jing to pursue Liu Zheng vigorously.

After Liu Zheng escaped, he was a little embarrassed, but he didn't feel nervous at all. After the soldiers under his command fought with Sun Jian's men, Liu Zheng understood one thing more, Sun Jian's men were not very good.

Although Liu Zheng had thousands of casualties, Sun Jian also suffered a lot of casualties, and under the dominant pursuit battle, the casualties were evenly matched. With such a result, for Liu Zheng, if the roles of both sides In exchange, Liu Zheng believes that he can defeat Sun Jian's enemies several times in turn.

"My lord, Sun Jian's people are chasing after us, and some of our brothers have fallen behind and failed to catch up. I'm afraid the casualties are still increasing."

Su Fei stood by Liu Zheng's side. At this time, Liu Zheng was only surrounded by Su Fei. Di Di and Gan Ning each led their soldiers and horses, covering the rear, not with Liu Zheng. At this time, Liu Zheng even I don't know what's going on with them, but Liu Zheng believes that with their means and strength, they won't be captured in such a battle.

"Where are our people, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin? Haven't arrived yet?"

"Here we are, Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, send people to send us a message. They are in the jungle not far away, and they have already prepared an ambush. As long as we pass by, Sun Jian's pursuers continue to pursue them, and they will be able to enter their ambush circle. At that time, we will join forces with Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin's [-] troops to fight back against Sun Jian, and at least we will be able to deal a heavy blow to Sun Jian!"

Su Fei told Liu Zheng the news he had received, and Liu Zheng looked better at this time.

"Okay, it's the right time, continue to escape, and go directly in the direction of Zhou Tai and the others."

Liu Zheng had already lured Sun Jian's men to this place, and it would not be difficult to continue to attract them to pursue. As long as Sun Jian continued to pursue, he would definitely fall into the trap.

Fighting a war is a matter of momentum. Once Sun Jian's men find themselves in an ambush, the momentum of the charge will collapse at the beginning, and the attack will start to waver.

Once this momentum is weakened, the idea of ​​retreating and fleeing will arise.

3Chapter 16 Each Wins and Losses

After a while, Liu Zheng arrived as promised, and led some people to escape to the place where Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin had ambushed in advance.

This is a small slope, covered by some trees, and there are some strange stones erected nearby, which makes it easy to hide your body. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin went here secretly from the river, and in advance To do a good job of hiding here also pays attention to the terrain here.

Liu Zheng's people soon appeared here, and joined Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin.

"Lord!"

Seeing that Liu Zheng was safe and sound, Zhou Tai was still happy. They first received the news that Sun Jian and the others were attacking with all their strength, and they were also worried about the safety of Liu Zheng and the others.

Now that Liu Zheng is intact and uninjured, he can rest assured that he just needs to prepare for how to deal with Sun Jian's army.

"Next, it's up to you."

Liu Zheng gave Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin a look of trust.

Both Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were shocked at the same time, and immediately said that they would never let down Liu Zheng's trust.

Not long after Liu Zheng appeared here, Sun Jian's pursuers arrived behind him. Those pursuers were not far from Liu Zheng's headquarters, and with all their efforts to pursue them, the time difference was not much.

The advance troops of more than 5000 pursuers arrived. Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin each led [-] men and rushed out from the left and right.

In addition to some of Liu Zheng's men and horses, there are more than 2 people at this time, taking advantage of the trend from here to fight back against Sun Jian's first wave of pursuers.

The sound of killing suddenly sounded at this time, and countless figures swayed on both sides, with a huge momentum. Sun Jian's part of the pursuers clearly only saw a few thousand people, but after arriving here, the number of enemy troops suddenly increased.

Those Liu Zhengjun who were being chased by Fan Neng's men immediately reacted and shouted at the top of their voices.

"Brothers, our reinforcements are here!"

"The reinforcements are here, the time has come to kill Sun Jian!"

"Brothers, don't run away, kill Sun Jian instead!"

"Fight against Sun Jian!"

Countless shouts came from Liu Zhengjun's side. This deafening voice was accompanied by shouts of killing from far and near. This kind of momentum made Fan Neng realize that it was not good.

"No, I got caught, the other party has an ambush here!"

Fan Neng immediately thought of Liu Zheng's ambush here, and the first thought in his mind was to retreat temporarily.

He didn't even think about having a life-and-death contest with Liu Zheng.

After all, even Zhang Ying is not Liu Zheng's opponent, and Fan Neng's strength is not as good as Zhang Ying's. How could he have the courage to confront Liu Zheng head-on.

"Retreat, temporarily retreat, and join Sun Jian's men!"

Fan Neng didn't want to use his own people to fill Liu Zheng's sword, so when he found reinforcements, he immediately chose to retreat, planning to join Sun Jian's rear troops and horses, unite with Sun Jian's main army, and use [-] soldiers and horses to deal with it. Liu Zheng.

This command to retreat made the already turbulent army even more turbulent.

Some of the soldiers and horses had already been in hand-to-hand contact with Liu Zheng's men. As soon as they fought, they were chopped down by Liu Zheng's men, and then the screams became more intense.

In the previous battles, most of the people on Liu Zheng's side were killed. After all, they had to worry about escaping while guarding against pursuers.

But now the offense and defense have changed hands, Liu Zheng's people are attacking, and Fan Neng and others are defending. The bad breath was given out, and the fight was extremely fierce.

Coupled with the help of Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's reinforcements, the number is not much worse than Fan Neng's men, and they have nothing to fear when fighting.

One face to face, Fan Neng's people lost a lot, and Fan Neng, who was in an ambush, could only start to stop the people from defending and retreating at the same time.

After a little while, Liu Zheng's troops had already launched an attack on Fan Neng's [-] army. Although Fan Neng had realized the retreat in advance, he was still seriously injured.

During such a retreat, at least one-third of the troops were restrained by Liu Zheng's troops and then beheaded. Half of the people who fought were killed.

"What's going on? Fan Neng, didn't you go after Liu Zheng? Why did you come back again?"

Sun Jian who came from the rear saw Fan Neng who had fled back from the front.

Especially when he saw that Fan Neng was in a bit of a mess, and the soldiers and horses under his command were fleeing in extreme embarrassment, he naturally asked strangely.

"General, it's not good, Liu Zheng, that guy Liu Zheng has an ambush!"

"How is this possible with an ambush, where did he get the horse?"

Sun Jian, who rushed over, was taken aback when he heard Fan Neng's words, and then his face was shocked, showing an expression of disbelief.

These days Sun Jian can be regarded as paying close attention to Liu Zheng, knowing that Liu Zheng has no other soldiers nearby, and there are no spies from Jiaozhou, so he sent him a message saying that Liu Zheng urgently mobilized troops.

So Sun Jian didn't know that Liu Zheng was hiding a navy of ten thousand people here.

Hearing Fan Neng's words at this time, his eyes were filled with surprise. After all, what he thought at the beginning was to use the current soldiers and horses to defeat Liu Zheng in one fell swoop. If Liu Zheng was still here with reinforcements, then his initial plan would be It's going to be a mess.

But he quickly realized that the surprise in his eyes immediately turned into firmness, and he continued to speak to Sun Jing and Fan Neng beside him.

"Don't worry about it, even if he has reinforcements, there won't be too many of them. We have 4 soldiers and horses in total and we can definitely defeat him. Go ahead!"

Sun Jian didn't want to miss such a good opportunity. If he retreated at this time, it would not be so easy to force Liu Zheng to such a situation next time.

So even though he knew that Liu Zheng still had some reinforcements, Sun Jian did not intend to retreat.

When Fan Neng heard Sun Jian's words, although he was a little afraid, Sun Jian's men and horses were all here. Adding his soldiers and horses, there were still some of them. The number should still be more than that of Liu Zheng. This gave Fan Neng some confidence.

"OK then."

"Everyone, rush to me!"

Sun Jian once again issued an order to the soldiers under his command. The troops of Sun Jian's army hadn't been intimidated by Liu Zheng's reinforcements yet, so they didn't have much fear at this time.

At this time, he continued to rush in the direction of Liu Zheng.
