The two Yisong rushed over and without saying a word, stripped off Yuan Shu's fine armor and replaced it with heavy armor. Dian Wei bent down and carried Yuan Shu on his back.

Yuan Shu shouted: "Boy, don't be loyal, I will drag you down, and none of us can get out!"

"Kill out!" Sun Ce ignored Yuan Shu, jumped up, and killed the sword, shield and crossbowman on the flanks.

At this time, Beidou Feng had already confronted the spearmen. The spearmen were densely deploying formations, and the spears poked like a forest. Yi Cong waved Thousand Army to fight head-on. The Thousand Army to defeat the enemy was still sharp, but the spearmen were not weak, and they continued to fight. Yi Cong worked very hard and people kept falling to the ground.

Even with heavy armor, it is inevitable to be injured when facing the spear. Once injured and slow down in the hand movements, more spears will pierce in. No matter how elite soldiers are, they cannot withstand the continuous stabbing of the spear, and casualties will increase rapidly. In order to cover Sun Ce and Yuan Shu's breakthrough, Beidou Feng fought to the death and fought hard, hoping to tear a gap and counterattack Cao Cao, but he has never been able to do so.

Sun Ce led the way. The best equipment here was him, not only heavy armor, but also brocade armor. He used a small shield to protect his face, rushed to the sword and shield hands in one breath, threw out the small shield, waved Qianjunpo and slashed and killed. After a moment, he cut down several people and rushed to the crossbowman. Qianjunpo swept across, and suddenly several people were killed. The crossbowman panicked and fled one after another.

Seeing this, Cao Cao sneered, shook the battle flag, commanded more infantry to surround him, and set up a three-level formation in front of Sun Ce.

"Bo Fu, let me go, without Dian Wei helping you, you will die." Yuan Shu hissed.

Sun Ce gritted his teeth and answered Yuan Shu with his actions. Thousands of troops defeated and swung each other, killed more than ten people in a row, and broke through another level of formation.

Inspired by Sun Ce's courage, Yi followed his slogan and followed his steps. He fell down and immediately someone made up for it to protect Dian Wei and Yuan Shu and prevent them from incurring any danger.

"Are you stupid?" Yuan Shu sighed and closed his mouth. He did not move, trying not to cause trouble to Dian Wei.

Sun Ce stepped forward and swung his sword toward the oncoming spear soldiers. Thousands of troops broke left and right, swung two spears open, and the central palace rushed forward. The tip of the knife pierced into the chest of a spearman. With a low roar, he raised him high, shook his arms and threw him away. In a moment, two spears took advantage of the gap. Sun Ce sank his shoulders and elbows, spread a spear, and dodged another spear, bullied his body, kicked the spearman's lower abdomen, kicked him back a few steps, and hit his companion. Sun Ce then cut off half of his body with a knife.

Without Dian Wei, Sun Ce's pressure increased greatly. Although he broke through the third formation one after another, he had several injuries on his body. He was unaware of it, and became more and more heroic. The blood flowed in his body, making him unable to control his emotions. He didn't want anything, he just wanted to kill and drink the enemy's blood.

"Thousands of troops!" Sun Ce yelled.

"Break!" Yi Congs roared.

Cao Cao looked at Sun Ce who had gone forward and broke through the three formations in an instant, and shook his head. "It's worthy of being the son of the tiger in Jiangdong. What a pity, it's a pity."

Cao Hong was frightened and kept licking his lips, unable to say a word. Cao Ren didn't say anything, but his blood-filled eyes looked at Sun Ce in the distance. He was arrogant and brave and refused to convince others, but today he was shocked when he saw Sun Ce. He was convinced of Cao Cao's evaluation. No wonder Cao Cao wanted to set up this trap. It turned out that it was not for Yuan Shu, but for Sun Ce.

If this person is not eliminated, he will definitely be a strong enemy.

Cao Cao ordered to mobilize troops to build one after another to block Sun Ce's way. The war drums and thunderous battle flags flew, and more people rushed up the hillside and lined up heavily, surrounding Sun Ce and others. The casualties continued to increase, one after another, one after another, but the entire team gradually narrowed, like ice constantly melting under the sun, and like mulberry leaves being constantly eroded, getting smaller and smaller.

But the powerful crossbow never came.

——

Qin Mu was anxious and continued to attack and shoot with his personal guards, trying to break through Xiahou Dun's defense line and respond to Sun Ce.

However, Xiahou Dun defended very steadily and did not give him any chance. He used a spearman to line up in front of the formation. When he saw the cavalry approaching, he ordered the crossbowman to shoot together. The crossbow is the natural enemy of the cavalry, especially when it has a numerical advantage, the shooting together is extremely lethal. After several charges, Qin Mu lost thirty or forty people, and was injured. His voice was hoarse, but he still refused to give up and rushed to the scene with all his strength.

Xiahou Dun was also helpless. Cao Cao was encircling and annihilated Sun Ce and needed his reinforcements in great need, especially in urgent need of strong crossbowmen. Cao Hong was unable to respond, and a large number of crossbowmen were killed by Sun Ce's surprise attack, and almost all the remaining strong crossbowmen were here. Without strong crossbowmen, Cao Cao could only command his soldiers to fight against Sun Ce in close combat, and the casualties were shocking. If there were strong crossbowmen, it was possible to quickly resolve the battle and reduce casualties.

These thousands of people were Cao Cao's only team. Some were the county soldiers of Dongjun, and some were recruited by Cao Cao himself. In the battle of Xingyang, the 5,000 soldiers funded by Weizi were destroyed. He went to Yangzhou to recruit soldiers. Chen Wen, the governor of Yangzhou, and Zhou Xin, the prefect of Danyang, supported Cao Cao's 4,000 people. As a result, a mutiny occurred as soon as he arrived in Longkang. Even Cao Cao was almost killed. In the end, there were only more than 500 people left. These more than 500 people and the more than 1,000 people gathered later were Cao Cao's direct troops. If they were all here, it is hard to say whether Cao Cao could gather another group of troops.

The continuous defeats were not only the loss of confidence, but also the money. The Cao family was rich, but Cao Cao's father Cao Song did not think that Cao Cao was the material for leading troops to fight. He refused to pay the money, and even refused to follow Cao Cao. He would rather take his family to Xuzhou. If he was defeated this time and lost all his money, Cao Cao would probably collapse in confidence.

As Cao Cao's good brother, Xiahou Dun knew Cao Cao's mood best and wanted to kill Qin Mu in one breath and rushed to reinforce immediately.

But he couldn't. Although Qin Mu only had more than a hundred cavalry, once these cavalry rushed into the formation, it would cause a major setback to morale and would likely cause the entire formation to collapse. He could only grit his teeth and fight with Qin Mu until Qin Mu retreated voluntarily.

But Qin Mu didn't seem to have the intention to retreat. He was like crazy, regardless of the fewer and fewer people around him, and he launched attacks again and again. Although it was weak, it never stopped. People kept falling down and people joined. The fallen knights arrived one after another, and saw Sun Ce's battle flag still flying on the hillside, they joined Qin Mu's team and rushed to Xiahou Dun's position without hesitation.

Xiahou Dun couldn't stop, so he could only grit his teeth and persevere.

The battle is in a deadlock and no one can retreat.

The shouts of killing shook the sky, the sound of war drums thundered. Some people kept falling down and people kept dying. The bodies were messy, spreading across the hillside, and blood flowed, dyeing the land red. The dead grass had been trampled, and the soil became soft and slippery. Thousands of people were fighting together, fighting for themselves, and they didn't even know who they were just mechanically raising the weapons in their hands and chopping them toward those they had never known each other in front of them.

Cao Cao sat upright on the horse's back and looked at Sun Ce who was fighting left and right in the battle formation and sighed softly.

If it weren't for war, we might be friends.

Unfortunately, I have to kill you now. Once the power crossbowman arrives, it will be the time for you to die. Enjoy this last time.
