A fire breaks out at the top of the city. If you continue to stay at the top of the city, you will only be burned to death by the fire.

Zhou Cheng looked at the city head with a sinister look on his brows.

Jia Xu said:"My lord."

Zhou Cheng said:"Ming Jin withdraws the troops."

Jia Xu didn't need to remind Zhou Cheng what to do.

He didn't expect Cao Ren to be so determined!

Moreover, he even burned his own people!

Dang Dang Dang!!!

With the sound of the gong.

The army and horses that were attacking the city began to retreat, and from the top of the city, the soldiers covered with fire jumped directly into the moat after descending from the city.

Some even jumped directly from the ladder.

Plop! Plop! Plop!

More people didn't even bother to wait for the ladder. After climbing over the battlements, they jumped directly into the moat.

"General Dian, retreat quickly!"

At this time, Zhang Tao shouted at Dian Wei.

Seeing that the soldiers were retreating, Dian Wei stamped his feet angrily, then turned and retreated.

Guan Yu breathed a sigh of relief.

Chen came to Guan Yu and asked:"General, are you okay? no?"

Guan Yu shook his head, and then said to Chen Dao:"Count the casualties."

"Here."Chen Dao immediately went to count the number of people.

There were still corpses burning on the top of the city.

When the grease burned, there was a crackling sound, and a smell of meat filled the city.

After the fire was extinguished, the charred corpses on the ground were so disturbing. It made people sick.

Cao Ren also sent people to clean up the corpses on the city wall and count the casualties.

In this battle, the Zhou army killed 2146 people.

Among them, 449 people were in the death camp, 1662 in the death battle camp, and 35 Zhou soldiers were killed.

Cao Jun 1,757 people died in battle.

Liu Bei's army died in 1,564. The casualties of the defenders were thousands more than those who attacked the city.

Moreover, Cao Ren also used up almost all of the most elite reserves.

How should we defend the city tomorrow?

We really have to die together. ?

……

Facing the wind and snow, under the leadership of a mountain hunter, we crossed the mountains day and night for several days and nights.

More than 20,000 Jiangdong elite soldiers led by Sun Jian finally climbed over the steep mountains and took a shortcut to get in front of Zhao Yun's cavalry.

Sun Jian immediately ordered his soldiers to rest in the leeward direction.

And at the foot of the mountain is the official road leading to Jishui.

Sun Jian and other soldiers rested for a while, then ordered them to cut down trees and block the official road.

Because Zhao Yun's 10,000 cavalry are all cavalry, they cannot abandon their strengths and compete with others to cross mountains and ridges.

However, despite being left behind, Zhao Yun didn't care as the cavalry could still catch up.

By the afterglow of the setting sun.

Zhao Yun looked ahead and said,"Have the scouts come back?"

Everyone knows that there are three major cavalry in the Zhou army.

Breaking dawn, tigers and bandits.

However, Zhao Yun and others all know that the most important cavalry is the light cavalry battalion.

The cavalrymen of the light cavalry battalion are good at running, reconnaissance, disguise, infiltration, etc.

Simply omnipotent.

Thanks to them for continuing to track Sun Jian.

Otherwise, Sun Jian really could use the mountains and forests to throw them away completely.

Pang Tong climbed up a hillside, put his hands on a tree, looked around for a moment, and said:"Jiangdong's army and horses are in front of our army at this time. They must have found a trail and are driving for days!"

Traveling for days means that Jiangdong's army and horses are exhausted..

A tired army is the best time to attack them.

About two hours later.

The scouts from the Qingqi Battalion came back on horseback.

The scout dismounted and reported:"Jiangdong's army has set up camp at the official road pass ahead."

Oh no!

So fast!

Zhao Yun's heart skipped a beat.

They were not familiar with the terrain in this area.

As a result, Sun Jian took the initiative.

Zhao Yun said:"Sir, what do you think?"

Pang Tong said:"The entire official road is completely blocked. If our army wants to pass through, we have to attack by force. But Sun Jian has arranged the camp well. If we attack by force, our army will lose troops and generals. It is inevitable."

Zhao Yun frowned and said,"In this case, if we take a detour,……"

If you take a detour, it will take another day.

Pang Tong said:"The only way is to attack by force."

Zhao Yun nodded, and then ordered the soldiers to have a full meal before preparing to attack Jiangdong Army.

The pass was about ten feet wide. At this time, Jiangdong's army cut down a large number of logs to block the pass.

Reject horses, antlers, trap horses, and at the same time, arrange a large number of archers.

Sun Jian divided his general's horse into two parts.

Ten thousand people went to Jishui, and ten thousand people stayed at the pass.

The terrain here is difficult and easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Moreover, the terrain was not open enough for the Zhou army’s cavalry to fully deploy.

……

The scout dismounted and reported the situation of Zhang He and Sun Jian's army.

Sun Jian actually took the lead and occupied the dangerous pass.

If Sun Jian is allowed to cross Jishui smoothly, he will leave Zhou Jun behind.

The scout then said:"General Zhao has led his army to attack, but he can't attack by force."

Zhang He said solemnly:"No matter the casualties, we must break through the pass."

If Sun Jian is allowed to go north, it will be a great threat to the rear.

If Sun Jian had fought all the way to Zhenliao City, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Zhang He knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately led his cavalry to the pass.

And at the pass.

A brutal fight has begun.

The corpses of war horses covered the ground.

Zhou Jun and Jiangdong Army were already fighting for the pass.
