Before the early morning, Dong Zhao received more accurate news that the cavalry led by Yan Xing had crossed the Ji River and arrived at the city of Changyi.

The appearance of cavalry made Dong Zhao alert. He knew that the number of cavalry in Jiangdong was limited, but his combat effectiveness should not be underestimated. From generals to war horses to weapons, they were the strongest in the world. Not long ago, Yan Xing defeated Zhang He and avenged a revenge for his wife's death in the battle.

After repeated consideration, Dong Zhao decided to launch an attack as soon as possible and then withdraw to Changyi.

He adjusted his formation and sent five thousand powerful crossbowmen and five thousand sword shield soldiers. The spear soldiers set up in Shanxi, Jinxiang to block the cavalry, and sent his own personal guards to prepare for the response. In addition to leaving him with 50,000 elite soldiers in Jizhou, Yuan Tan also left him with a thousand cavalry as personal guards. For Yuan Tan, who lost Youzhou and lacked war horses, these thousand cavalry were quite precious, which was enough to reflect his trust and expectations for Dong Zhao.

Facing Yan Xing and the elite cavalry led by him, Dong Zhao did not dare to take it lightly.

As it was getting dark, Dong Fang launched an attack on Sun Guan's position. He was condescending and tried his best. He sent out the most elite guard camp to attack Sun Guan's position as soon as he made a move. After a day and night of fighting, he could not eat. Sun Guan was exhausted and his arrows were exhausted, leaving only the last attack. With nearly 20,000 elite soldiers from Jizhou who plundered the formation, he had no scruples and did not have to stop.

The sound of war drums sounded, and the powerful crossbowmen began to shoot. The dense rain of arrows tear through the air, flew into the sky, turned around and shot into Sun Guan's formation. One thousand infantrymen were divided into two parts. Under the leadership of the two commanders, they rushed towards Sun Guan from different directions. Two thousand infantrymen were ready to attack. Once Sun Guan's position had a flaw, they would rush in and completely tear away the defenses of Sun Guan and others.

Hearing the sound of war drums and the sound of arrows breaking through the wind, Sun Guan and Chang Feng jumped up almost at the same time, pulled out the war knife, and hissed loudly.

"Raising the shield--"

After being surrounded, Sun Guan and others rushed repeatedly, but failed to break through, but exhausted the arrows. At this moment, facing the Jizhou Army's arrow formation, they had no other way but to raise their shields. They were trapped in this empty space. The only thing they could help them block the rain of arrows was Lu Jun, the tombstone of the Gu Sili School Commander. They were surrounded by nearly ten times the army, tired and hungry. If there was no news of reinforcements coming, they would have collapsed long ago.

In fact, Chang Xi had already proposed surrender, but was rejected by Sun Guan. Sun Guan said that even if Ji Ling didn't come to save us, Zang Ba would definitely not give up on us. Brothers for so many years, you have to believe Zang Ba. If you surrender, will you fight face to face with Zang Ba in the future? Besides, what is Dong Zhao? He is not a dog of Yuan Tan, and Yuan Tan is not a match for King Wu, so he will not be able to do so. Yanzhou is the King of Wu sooner or later. We surrender to Dong Zhao now and betray the King of Wu. If we are defeated by King of Wu in the future, wouldn't we seek death?

Chang Xi was temporarily convinced by Sun Guan, gave up the idea of ​​surrender, and finally persisted until the arrival of reinforcements. At this moment, he led his troops to block Dong Zhao's attack on the south side, and the task of rushing to the formation was handed over to Sun Guan. Sun Guan was good at martial arts, brave and good at fighting, and was better at attacking than him. As long as he could break Dong Je's blockade and rush up to Jinxiang Mountain, he could hold on for a longer time.

While Chang Xi ordered the soldiers to form a dense formation and conceal each other, he regretted not having rigorous training like Ji Ling. He didn't see any difference in normal times. After joining the formation, the gap in combat effectiveness was too obvious. Yesterday, he faced Dong Je, and Ji Ling could easily defeat Dong Je, but they were beaten by Dong Je, and they injured nearly a thousand people.

If he could go back alive this time, he would definitely make up his mind to train these bastards. Chang Xi swore and looked west while waiting for the reinforcements to appear, cursing Ji Ling from time to time. It has been a day and a night, and Ji Ling has not appeared. It seems that he will definitely not be able to count on him.

When Chang Xi was cursing, Sun Guan was not in the mood to think about this. Seeing the Jizhou army approaching under the cover of the arrow formation, he widened his eyes and clenched the sword in his hand. As soon as the arrow formation stopped, the Jizhou army had just launched a charge, he jumped up and rushed out.

"Brothers, come on, cut these Hebei gangsters--"

The guards roared and rushed out with Sun Guan. They used to be in the mountains and walked in the mountains all year round. Later, they learned mountain warfare from Taishici. Crossing mountains and ridges was like walking on flat ground for them, and even uphill had no effect. Yesterday, they repelled Dong Je at least a dozen attacks with this advantage, and now they are also fearless.

But they soon discovered that today's situation was different. Although Sun Guan was very brave and roared and killed two people in a row, the other party did not give in and continued to rush forward. The two swords, shields and hands surrounded Sun Guan, and the spearman thrust the spear straight. Sun Guan's hand slowed down and got a spear in his lower abdomen. He roared and threw away the shield, held the spear and pushed it out, then rushed over with the spear, and cut off the spearman's head with one knife.

But he also paid a heavy price and was stabbed on his back. If it weren't for the solid armor, this knife would have seriously injured him.

Seeing that Sun Guan was injured, Sun Guan's personal guards became anxious and rushed forward desperately. Some of them were Sun Guan's tribe's children, and some were brothers who had followed Sun Guan for many years. All their wealth and honor were tied to Sun Guan. Naturally, they could not watch Sun Guan die in the formation and stepped forward to protect Sun Guan's wings. The Jizhou army was not outdone. Qu Junhou personally rushed to the front of the formation and commanded the siege of Sun Guan, hoping to kill Sun Guan in front of the formation and resolve the battle as soon as possible.

The two sides were bothered together and refused to give in to each other, and they were hard to solve.

Seeing Sun Guan rushing to the formation and leaving the formation, Dong Fang was in the middle of his mind and immediately sent out the most powerful personal guard to surround him from both wings, and be sure to kill Sun Guan in front of the formation. Once Sun Guan dies, these bandits will collapse and the battle will be over quickly.

Sun Guan was caught in a heavy siege, rushing left and right, but failed to move forward, let alone defeating the opponent's attack. There were more and more enemies around him, and his armor was distinctive. He was not an ordinary Jizhou army, or even Dong Je's personal guard camp, but Dong Je's guards.

"Swoosh! Swoosh!" Two feather arrows shot from different directions. Sun Guan felt something was wrong. He tried his best to change his body, barely avoiding one arrow, and he could not avoid another. The arrow shot through his left thigh, causing him to stand almost unsteadily. He looked down at the wolf-tooth armor-breaking arrow, and Sun Guan felt a chill. This was an armor-breaking arrow specially used by snipers in the army. Dong Fang was determined to kill him.

"Be careful of the hidden arrow!" Sun Guan roared, snatched a shield and cut off the neck of the Jizhou sword and shield hand. He used the shield to protect the face. With his eyes swept, he fired at least three sniper crossbowmen, holding the crossbow, and the cold crossbow arrow pointed straight at him. Sun Guan subconsciously raised the shield, but his heart felt desolate.

At such a close distance, it is another six-stone crossbow, so the shield in his hand may not be able to block it.

I didn't expect that I would die here.

But he did not hear the sound of a strong crossbow breaking the shield, but heard a rain of arrows. In fact, no arrow fell on his shield, but instead made a panic cry at the Jizhou army. Before he could understand what was going on, the guards cheered.

"General, reinforcements are here, reinforcements are here."

Sun Guan was overjoyed. "Where is it Nu Kouer? Where is he? I want to settle the score with him. Why are you here now?" He turned to look west, but saw nothing. The guard shouted loudly: "It's not General Zang, but Governor Ji! Governor Ji! Look up, on the mountain! On the mountain!"

Sun Guan raised his head and looked over the head of the Jizhou Army. Then he found that there were several battle flags behind Dong Fang. On one of them, there was a phoenix bird rising from the fire, spreading its wings and roaring with his head. A huge character Ji embroidered on the battle flag next to it, which was undoubtedly Ji Ling's battle flag. Blasts of arrow rain were pouring down from the hillside and falling into the formation of the Jizhou Army. The Jizhou Army suffered heavy casualties, and no one of the three snipers could see it. I thought it had been shot and killed by the archers beside Ji Ling.

Sun Guan was stunned. He always thought that the reinforcements were Zang Ba, but he never expected it to be Ji Ling, but he quickly realized that Ji Ling's subordinates had stronger combat power and were condescending, and they had a greater chance of defeating Dong Fang.

Sun Guan stood up, raised his sword and shouted wildly. "Beat the drum, kill Dong Je!"

"Kill Dong Je!" The soldiers shouted loudly and rushed towards Dong Je's position amid the sound of war drums. Chang Xi also found Ji Ling, was ecstatic, and immediately led his subordinates to launch a counterattack into Dong Je's formation.

Dong Fang was attacked by pincers and was attacked by Ji Ling first, and his team was in chaos. He did not care about killing Sun Guan, and ordered the soldiers to change their formation and stick to the spot. In the first wave of attacks, he lost more than 30% of the crossbowmen, and the long-range strike was no longer able to compete with Ji Ling. He could only hope that Dong Zhao could react in time, adjust the formation, and send reinforcements.

Their target was not Sun Guan, Chang Xi, but Ji Ling. Since Ji Ling came, he could not be let go. It was not surprising that Ji Ling might appear on Jinxiang Mountain. Dong Zhao made sufficient preparations. When he fought against the Black Mountain bandits in Wei County, many subordinates were skilled in mountain warfare, and could compete with Ji Ling.

Dong Jian stood in front of Sun Guan, Chang Xi and fought to the death. These Jizhou troops were worthy of being the elite of the battle formation for a long time. They quickly recovered from calmness and formed a formation to defend on the spot. Sun Guan repeatedly attacked and added several wounds, but still failed. There were sounds of war drums coming from behind. Dong Zhao launched an attack, and thousands of soldiers rushed into their previous positions and forced them over. Chang Xi turned around to block the attack, but he lacked troops and his physical strength was almost at the limit, and he could not stop the attack of the Jizhou army. Seeing the familiar soldiers falling into the ground and blood, the Jizhou army was getting closer and closer, Chang Xi's eyes were red.
