Three Kingdoms: I, the eldest son of Cao, a loving father of a great man!

Sun Ce also knew the importance of Xiangyang City if it was lost.

There will be loopholes in Jingzhou's defense system. At that time, Yuan Shu can march straight in and attack Jiangdong.

Therefore, Sun Ce wanted to take advantage of the current chaos of war to seize Xiangyang.

Sun Ce thought of doing it, and immediately led eight thousand elite cavalry to Xiangyang City.

Outside Xiangyang City.

Sun Ce and Cai Mao faced each other from a distance.

Since Cao Ang left, he handed over the defense of Xiangyang City to Cai Mao, so the latter naturally did not dare to take it lightly.

"Sun Ce, I heard that you are young and don't want to serve the country, but you spend all your time playing in the world.

In fact, he is a rebellious official and a traitor. I would like to advise you today, retreat as soon as possible, there is still a chance of survival. "Cai Mao shouted.

"Cai Hao, stop talking nonsense. If you want to fight, fight." Sun Ce didn't bother to say anything more, so he directly drew his sword and pointed at Cai Hao and said.

It turned out that a shield bearer was unable to dodge and was stabbed through the throat with a spear.

"Kill!" Sun Ce yelled without showing any signs of weakness. The war horse rushed out, holding a big gun and killed Cai Hao.

Cai Hao knew that Sun Ce was brave and good at fighting, and his shield wielders were also very powerful, but he didn't expect that he couldn't stop Sun Ce.

"Ding-ding-dang-dang." A sound of gold and iron sounded.

"Hmph!" At this moment, Pang De, who was watching the battle, snorted coldly and swung the halberd in his hand fiercely.

"Pfft pfft."

The shield bearer swayed and fell to the ground.

Cai Hao turned pale when he saw this and hurriedly shouted: "Retreat, retreat."

It's just that Cai Mao seemed to have been prepared and couldn't intercept him at all. In the end, he could only watch Cai Mao escape.

"Kill." Sun Ce became even more excited when he saw this.

The two sides fought together and were inseparable.

Cai Mao was furious and shouted: "Sun Ce, don't be crazy. I have to kill you today. Archers, shoot this rebellious minister and traitor to death."

Following Cai Mao's order, hundreds of crossbows began to change direction and aimed at Sun Ce.

Pang De's eyes were cold and he glanced around. The remaining shield bearers were all trembling with fear.

In just a few moments, more than 300 people were killed by Sun Ce's soldiers.

The sound of a knife cutting into flesh was heard. Sun Ce led his soldiers into the group of shield bearers, killing them crazily.

"Pu Chi." A spear broke and blood spattered everywhere.

Cai Mao knew that he couldn't go against it, so he simply ordered to retreat.

He felt that there was no need to talk too much nonsense with Cai Mao, because Sun Ce knew that the cooperation he mentioned before was just a joke.

"If you want to leave, stay with me!" Sun Ce was overjoyed when he saw this, and led his soldiers to kill him.

Cai Hao's expression changed and he quickly raised his gun to fight.

"Bastard!" Sun Ce was furious when he saw this result, but he knew that Cai Mao dared to leave.

Adequate arrangements will definitely be made. If he pursued forcefully, he would probably lose even more.

"My lord, don't be upset. We can capture Xiangyang City first. Then we can slowly deal with Cai Mao." Zhou Yu comforted him.

"Well, Gong Jin is right." Sun Ce's anger calmed down a little.

Immediately, Sun Ce led the army and continued to Xiangyang City.

In Xiangyang City, Liu Cong, Dian Wei and others gathered in the meeting hall.

Although they were arranged by Cao Ang to defend the city, they had always been very indifferent to Cai Mao.

"What should we do?" Liu Cong said bitterly.

"Cai Mao is a cunning man, and this matter may not have anything to do with him. But we still need to be careful." Dian Wei said after a moment of pondering. "So what do you mean?" Liu Cong believed Dian Wei's words. Therefore, he asked immediately.

"We can assume that Cai Mao and Sun Ce colluded." Dian Wei said calmly.

"hiss."

Everyone took a breath when they heard this.

"If so, that would be troublesome." Liu Cong had a look of horror on his face.

The death of Liu Biao severely weakened the power of their faction. If Sun Ce contacted Cai Mao again. Then they're screwed.

"So, we must get rid of Sun Ce as soon as possible. Or find a way to hold him back so that Cai Mao has no time to worry about Liu Xie." Dian Wei said slowly.

"But Sun Ce occupies the east of the Yangtze River and is known as the marshal of the world's soldiers and horses. How can it be so easy to get rid of him." Liu Cong sighed and said.

"Haha, what about the Grand Marshal of the World's Soldiers and Horses? As long as we arrange it properly, no matter how powerful he is, he can't overturn the world." Dian Wei said confidently.

Although others think Dian Wei is too optimistic, after thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is really feasible.

"But if this happens, Xiangyang will be in danger." Liu Cong said worriedly.

"Don't worry. Xiangyang City is so impregnable that even Sun Ce can't break it. And we have reinforcements, so there is no problem in defending Xiangyang." Dian Wei said confidently.

"But where is the master?" Liu Cong hesitated.

"Master, we can discuss it in the long term." Dian Wei shook his head and said.

"So, I'll wait and see." Liu Cong nodded.

Immediately, everyone started discussing the defense of Xiangyang.

On the other side, after Sun Ce rested for a while, he continued to lead his troops to attack fiercely.

The city wall of Xiangyang is tall, thick and extremely strong. Even though Sun Ce's attack for a long time failed to break the city, Sun Ce was not discouraged at all, but became more and more courageous with each defeat.

The generals under Sun Ce were also brave, and their attacks were successful every time.

The defenders in Xiangyang City also felt the pressure, and their morale gradually declined.

"General, the enemy troops outside the city are becoming more and more fierce. What should we do?" A general came to Dian Wei for help with a face full of fear.

Dian Wei frowned, it was really difficult to defend the city now.

However, Xiangyang City was not built. The city walls were strong and heavily guarded.

Although Sun Ce's troops were sharp, taking Xiangyang would not be a matter of time.

But the soldiers in Xiangyang cannot hold on forever. After all, the soldiers in Xiangyang City are not Jiangdong Army.

Their physical strength is exhausted relatively quickly. Moreover, Xiangyang City’s food reserves are not enough to last until next spring.

If this battle lasts too long, Xiangyang City will be doomed.

This is where Dian Wei has a headache.

"Send my order and the whole army will break out of the encirclement." Dian Wei thought for a long time and decided to take the risk to break out of the encirclement.

Outside Xiangyang City.

Sun Ce was commanding his troops to attack the city, when suddenly he heard the sound of drums and horns.

"The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking." The soldiers and horses under Sun Ce suddenly became commotion.

"What's going on?" Sun Ce was shocked and hurriedly dismounted to check the city gate, only to see a group of black-armored infantry suddenly come out from the flank and charge into the city.

Sun Ce was shocked, what kind of army is this? Why haven't you seen it?

"Kill." After this force entered the city, they immediately showed their astonishing power.

They were as fast as thunder, holding weapons to harvest the lives of Jiangdong's army like chopping melons and vegetables.

"This army is not simple." Sun Ce looked at the uniforms of this army and a thought flashed in his mind. (End of chapter)
