Sun Jian and Sun Ce were about to succeed, but were defeated by Zhang Liao, who was coming in time, and were very annoyed. Sun Jian hurriedly shouted to Sun Ce: "Ce'er, lead the army to attack!" Sun Ce replied, shouted loudly, and led tens of thousands of troops to rush towards the city gate. For a moment, the troops were as fierce as a tide.

Zhang Liao led thousands of troops to defeat Cheng Pu in one fell swoop. Then he saw Sun Ce leading tens of thousands of troops coming, not daring to fight, so he quickly led his army to bring the injured Xiaoyaojin warriors and the dead warriors' bodies to the city. At this time, an officer was rushing to the city gate with his subordinates carrying many wooden barrels. When he saw Zhang Liao leading his army back, he immediately went forward and clasped his fists to Zhang Liao and said, "General, we are here!" Zhang Liao pointed to the huge pit behind the city gate and shouted, "Populate all the tincture oil for me!" The officers and soldiers immediately passed the order. The officers and soldiers probably pried open the wooden barrels and poured the buckets of tincture oil into the pit.

Not long after, all the officers and soldiers of Lu Bu retreated into the city, and tens of thousands of troops led by Sun Ce had already rushed to the gate. At the same time, more than a hundred Jiangdong soldiers had already rushed through the gate and rushed to the pedals on the pit! Zhang Liao shouted sternly: "Set the fire!" Several officers and soldiers holding torches immediately threw the torches into the pit. At this time, the pit was filled with tinder oil, and when the fire source was met, it immediately burned, and a huge flame suddenly emerged from the huge pit! The Jiangdong soldiers who rushed onto the pedals were immediately in the fire cave, and were burned to scream and fell into the pit. More than a dozen Jiangdong soldiers who were lucky enough to rush through the pit were immediately knocked to the ground by the rain of arrows shot by Lu Bu's army!

Seeing the flames inside the city gate, Sun Ce had no choice but to stop the army. Looking at the burning flames inside the city gate, it seemed that fire was about to spew out of his eyes.

...

Ailang led Xu Shu and others and hundreds of personal soldiers to arrive in the forest opposite Chaisang. As soon as he arrived here, Ailang asked the officer who stayed here: "Is there any news about Ju Yi?" The officer clasped his fists and said, "General Ju Yi sent someone to send a message not long ago, saying that heavy rains on both sides of the Huai River were forced to stop on the north bank and could not cross the river for the time being..." Ailang was shocked and shouted: "How could this happen?" The officer was speechless.

Ailang became anxious and paced back and forth in the tent, saying angrily: "What's going on now? Wenyuan's troops are limited, and it's impossible to resist it for too long! Damn, this god, has disrupted all my plan!" Everyone present couldn't help but look at each other, feeling too sudden for this sudden change. Huang Yueying said: "Brother, since this happened, are you considering withdrawing the troops of the two generals Zhang Liao and Xu Huang back to the north bank and making plans?" Xu Shu thought: "Now the army led by Ju Yi cannot arrive on time. If it continues to follow the original plan, the risk is too great..."

Ailang showed an unwilling expression on his face. He was really unwilling to return the three armies of Danyang, Wujun and Kuaiji that he had already obtained to Sun Jian, which would have become a joke.

Zhao Yun suddenly said: "Lord, maybe we can change our plan..."

Ai Lang couldn't help but stop and look at Zhao Yun, and asked with hope, "Zilong, do you have any tricks?" Zhao Yun said, "What the General of the Mo is thinking is just a trick to doubt the enemy. Since the enemy has arranged a lot of detailed works in our place, they must have known about General Ju Yi's leading a 100,000 army south. Then we simply asked General Gan Ning to lead the navy to come to the water surface here with great fanfare, and we can also make a big noise here!" Everyone present was a long-standing general. When Zhao Yun said this, they all understood what he meant. Xu Shuxi said, "It's amazing! In this way, Jiangdong may think that our army is ready to attack him! The enemy troops attacking Danyang will inevitably return to rescue Chaisang!"

Ailang nodded happily and couldn't help but praise: "Zilong, you are really wise and brave!" Zhao Yun clasped his fists and said, "My lord is too much! But this strategy of his subordinates may not have deceived Zhou Yu! If the enemy is not deceived, General Zhang Liao and General Xu Huang will be wiped out. For the sake of the subsequent battle, the last general suggested that if this plan fails, he should immediately give up Danyang and Wujun and retract all his troops to Kuaiji."

Xu Shu praised, "Zilong's suggestions are very good!" Then he clasped his fists at Ailang and said, "Lord, let's do it like this!" Ailang nodded and said, "Okay! Send the order immediately!..."

...

Sun Jian and Sun Ce led their troops to attack Danyang for several days, and the battle was very fierce. Although the Jiangdong army rushed to the city countless times, they were always driven out by Lu Bu's army. After a few days of fierce battles, although Danyang City was shaky, it was still unable to break through, which made the Jiangdong army anxious. However, although Zhang Liao tried hard to defend the city, they had reached the point where they were exhausted in the past few days!

The battle of this day finally ended. Sun Jian's army, who had been attacking for a whole day, finally stopped attacking and slowly retreated to the camp. Zhang Liao stood on the top of the city and looked at the Jiangdong army that was slowly retreating to the camp outside the city, frowned tightly.

An officer rushed to Zhang Liao, clasped his fists and said, "General!..." Zhang Liao still looked outside the city and asked, "How are you? How many soldiers and horses are left?" "Only, there are more than 7,300 people left, and most of them are injured..." Zhang Liao said, "There are all very tired. If Sun Jian's army attacks again, I'm afraid they will arrive and cannot stop it!" Zhang Liao smiled and said, "Don't worry, the final victory must belong to us." Seeing Zhang Liao's expression and tone, the officer couldn't help but let go of most of his worry. He couldn't help but recall the countless battles he had experienced with the general. They encountered countless hardships and difficulties, but in the end they all overcome and won the final victory under the leadership of the general. Thinking of this, the remaining little worry in his heart could not help but disappear.

Zhang Liao was calm, but in fact no one could know his anxiety and concern. He originally thought that he could hold on with the city for at least half a month, but he did not expect that the battle would end up in this position just five or six days after the war began. He was a long-time general on the battlefield and knew very well what he was doing now. With his current state, I am afraid that it would last for three days at most, which was the biggest limit!

At the same time, Sun Jian and Sun Ce discussed the next offensive strategy in the tent. The atmosphere inside the tent was very serious. Although Danyang was shaking after the battle in the past few days, his opponents always defended the city and refused to take a step back, which made them pay an extremely heavy price, and their morale was inevitably affected.

Sun Ce said: "We have fought for five or six days, and our army suffered heavy casualties. I think this battle cannot be delayed anymore! Tomorrow we will take a gamble, and I will personally lead the Jiefu Warriors and Hengjiang Shooters to raid the west side while the army is facing the west! Be sure to regain Danyang in one go!" Sun Jian frowned and nodded, saying: "Okay! Tomorrow I will lead the army to attack the city in the west to create a chance for raid for Ce'er!" Then he said ruthlessly: "I don't believe that all the officers and soldiers of the Lu Bu army are really iron-clad!" He raised his head and glanced at everyone, and said resolutely: "In the future, I will devote all my strength until the city is captured! I hope you don't let my high hopes down!" Everyone agreed in unison.

After the meeting, Sun Jian looked at the map for a while and went to the marching couch to fall asleep.

Lu Bu's army was defeated like a mountain, and the Danyang city gate was wide open. Sun Jian was leading the army into the city. The people in the city cheered in the streets, and everyone cried with joy. The Danyang battle finally came to an end successfully. Sun Jian could not resist the excitement.

"Father! Father!..." Sun Ce's cry suddenly came, as if it was falling from the sky. Sun Jian looked around in surprise, and then suddenly opened his eyes. The scene of victory disappeared without a trace, and what caught his eye was his big tent and Sun Ce who was in a close look. Sun Jian was stunned for a moment, and then realized that the scene just now was just a beautiful dream of him. Seeing that his father had woken up, Sun Ce hurriedly said, "Father, something happened!..." Sun Jian immediately felt a bad premonition in his heart, and he sat up, frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"

Sun Ce presented a volume of bamboo slips, "The 100,000 urgent military newspaper that Chaisang just sent!" Sun Jian took the bamboo slips and opened them to read them, his face changed drastically, "What! Lu Bu's army gathered opposite Chaisang?" Sun Ce said: "Based on the previous detailed report, by counting time, Lu Bu's main force will indeed arrive opposite Chaisang in the past two days..." Sun Jian continued to look at the content of the bamboo slips, frowned slightly, "Gongjin and Zijing both suspected that this was the other party's suspicious plan?" Sun Ce nodded, "There is this possibility. But even Gongjin and Zijing could not be sure of this.

It must be the opponent's plan to doubt the soldiers. Father, we have two choices now. One is to continue to attack Danyang and then divide the troops back to help Chaisang after the city is broken. But this risk is very high. If the Lu Bu army on the opposite side is real, it will be impossible to resist with the more than 10,000 old, weak and remnants of Chaisang. I am afraid that the consequences will be unimaginable. Second, we will give up attacking Danyang immediately and return to help Chaisang immediately. Although this can protect Chaisang, if the Lu Bu army on the opposite side is just suspicious, we will miss the best opportunity to retake Danyang!..."

Sun Jian paced back and forth on the tent, frowned tightly, looking hesitant and embarrassed.

The sun rose from the east, and the darkness covering the earth quickly receded, and all sleeping things quickly recovered their vitality. On the city wall, the officers and soldiers of Lu Bu were mobilized, and the rolling stones were continuously transported to the top of the city. Although the officers and soldiers of Lu Bu were already scarred and exhausted, they were still ready to fight their opponents to the death.

Zhang Liao stood on the broken city gate tower and looked into the distance. Wen Chou, who was as majestic as a mountain, stood beside Zhang Liao, leaning on the big knife in his hand, and blood was hidden on the blade.
