After guarding the border for his father for three years, the daughter-in-law returns home and becom

"promise!"

The generals received the order and immediately went down to prepare.

Sun Quan rode a tall horse, surrounded by a group of personal soldiers, and marched out of Xiaoyao Town in a mighty manner, heading towards Zhang Liao.

The two armies soon met.

"Aren't these Zhang Liao's remnants? Why are they trying to use the same old trick to attack my camp again?"

Sun Quan pulled the reins of his horse and looked at Zhang Liao's army with disdain.

"Haha, I didn't expect to see you again so soon. I didn't kill you enough last time, and my cavalry can't wait to take your head."

Zhang Liao rode out and came to the front of the battle formation. He stared at Sun Quan coldly with a disdainful sneer on his lips.

Hearing this, Sun Quan looked at Zhang Liao's cavalry, as well as the dust and shouting not far away.

It was obvious at a glance that Zhang Liao was going to use his old trick again.

But if I fail to capture Zhang Liao in a short period of time, wouldn't the tragedy happen again?

"Zhang Liao, you should take your remaining troops and leave. I am going to withdraw my entire army now. There is no need to cause more casualties."

"You come and go as you please. What about the more than 300 knights who died?"

Zhang Liao swung the cold goose-feather knife in his hand, pointed the tip of the knife at Sun Quan's nose, and shouted: "Last time you got away with it, this time I will take your head to commemorate the souls of my three hundred brothers in heaven!"

Zhang Liao's words were filled with righteous indignation and murderous intent, as if he was an enraged lion that could suddenly attack and hurt people at any time.

Sun Quan was intimidated by Zhang Liao's momentum and felt a little uneasy.

He subconsciously wanted to step back, but the warhorse under him seemed to sense his master's fear, paddling its hooves restlessly and refusing to take a single step back.

"General, what should we do now?"

At this time, the personal soldiers around Sun Quan saw this and hurriedly asked in a low voice with a hint of panic in their tone.

"What are you afraid of? Zhang Liao is just bluffing! We have an army of 100,000, so why should we be afraid of his mere 500 cavalrymen?"

"Pass the order down and prepare for battle!"

Although Sun Quan spoke toughly, he had already started to back down in his heart.

at this time.

Another deputy general rode up to Sun Quan and said in a low voice, "General, I think this matter needs further consideration!"

"Oh? Tell me."

Sun Quan glanced at the deputy general with a sidelong glance, feeling a little impatient.

"General, think about it, Zhang Liao's cavalry came and went without a trace, and caught us off guard last time. They suddenly appeared again this time, could they be taking the opportunity to raid our camp?" the deputy general analyzed.

When Sun Quan heard this, his heart skipped a beat.

Yes, Zhang Liao’s cavalry is elusive. If they really bypass me and attack my camp, that would be terrible!

"General, if we fail to capture Zhang Liao now, won't we be defeated and flee again?"

"I think we should let the three armies retreat, and we will cover the rear."

"If Zhang Liao dares to continue the attack, then he will be a complete traitor."

The soldier who spoke earlier spoke again.

"But now they have committed treason."

"That's not the case, General. It was us who attacked last time, so it was understandable that they tried to stop us. But now we are returning to the capital to report, and they actually raided the Great Zhou army. We can use this as an excuse to boost morale," the deputy general explained hastily.

When Sun Quan heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Yup!

Why didn't I think of this?

Now that Chu Yang has rebelled, if I can take this opportunity to spread the reputation of clearing out the bad guys, wouldn't that be justified?

Thinking of this, Sun Quan immediately made a decision in his heart.

"Pass the order, the entire army retreat!"

Sun Quan swung the spear in his hand violently and gave a loud order.

"What? Retreat?"

"General, are we going to retreat just like that?"

"This... this is too cheap for that kid Zhang Liao, isn't it?"

Upon hearing Sun Quan's order, the other generals were immediately furious and began to express their opposition.

"Shut up, everyone!"

Sun Quan roared angrily, and the generals were frightened into silence.

"This general has made up his mind. Execute the order immediately! Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed!"

"promise!"

Although the generals were somewhat unwilling, they did not dare to disobey military orders and had to obey the orders reluctantly.

soon.

Sun Quan's army began to change direction and retreat along the way they came.

Seeing this, Zhang Liao curled his lips into a sneer.

"Want to escape? It's not that easy!"

"Brothers, chase them! Today, we must make these traitors pay with blood!"

"Kill!"

At Zhang Liao's command, the 500 cavalrymen behind him immediately rushed towards Sun Quan's army like arrows.

"General, Zhang Liao and his men are catching up!"

Sun Quan looked back and saw Zhang Liao's cavalry, like maggots on the heel, biting tightly behind him, and he was immediately furious.

"Damn, this kid is really haunting!"

Sun Quan spat fiercely and shouted to the soldiers beside him: "Pass the order, Zhang Liao is plotting rebellion and attacking the Zhou army returning to the capital, stop them!"

"promise!"

The personal guards received the order and hurried down to pass on the message.

Soon, Sun Quan's rear army engaged in battle with Zhang Liao's cavalry.

However, Sun Quan's army was already in low morale, and they were caught up in the battle in a hurry. How could they be a match for Zhang Liao?

After just one encounter, they were killed by Zhang Liao's cavalry and their troops were completely routed.

"Trash! They are all a bunch of trash!"

Seeing this, Sun Quan became furious and started cursing.

He just couldn't understand why his army of one hundred thousand couldn't even stop Zhang Liao's mere 500 cavalrymen!

"General, what should we do now? Two thousand vanguards appeared in the smoke and dust just now, and they are coming towards us."

A personal soldier pointed around with a pale face and said in a trembling voice.

When Sun Quan heard this, he was immediately shocked.

He looked up quickly and discovered that an army had appeared in the smoke and dust at some point.

At this moment, his brain was working frantically, thinking about the next plan.

If the other side really has only 3,000 people, then my army of 100,000 will definitely win.

But if other reinforcements appear, wouldn’t I be defeated and my reputation would be ruined!

If he retreated, he could at least leave behind 50,000 troops, and he would just be besieged by the traitor Chu Yang.

It's not shameful to lose to Chu Yang!

"Damn it! Retreat! Retreat for me!"

Sun Quan couldn't help but swear, turned his horse around and fled backwards.

"General! Where should we retreat to?"

The personal soldiers beside him were sweating profusely with anxiety. An army of one hundred thousand was now in chaos. How could there be any order?

"Where else can we retreat to? Of course, we should return to the capital!"

Sun Quan shouted angrily, "When I get back, I will report Chu Yang and make him pay for it!"

He had only one thought in his mind at this moment, and that was to escape! The farther the better!

at the same time.

Zhang Liao led five hundred cavalrymen, like a black lightning, and shuttled freely in Sun Quan's army. Wherever he passed, people and horses fell to the ground and blood flowed like a river.
