Three Kingdoms: My Strategy Simulator

Faced with the sudden ambush of the Yizhou army, Wei Yan had immediately organized troops to try to clear the boulders and open a way out.

But the dense rain of arrows, wood, stones, and even kerosene that kept falling from both sides...

This not only prevented Wei Yan from quickly opening a retreat route, but also caused countless casualties among the Jingzhou soldiers. Wei Yan was even hit by an arrow in the arm.

Fortunately, Liu Biao's arrival stopped Wei Yan's desperate attack.

Upon seeing this, Wei Yan was overjoyed to see a chance of life. He led his personal guards, who numbered less than 100, without hesitation to meet up with Liu Biao, and together they worked together to quickly clear a way out of the valley.

When this opening appeared, Wei Yan rushed out immediately, even completely forgetting that his nominal lord was still behind him.

Or perhaps Wei Yan already harbored some resentment towards Liu Biao.

In the Battle of Wu County, Wei Yan asked himself what a great achievement he had made, but not only did Liu Biao fail to fulfill all the promises he had made before, but he even seemed to be suppressing him in his words and deeds.

Originally, when Liu Biao led his army to attack Yizhou, Wei Yan volunteered to be the vanguard, hoping to make another great contribution.

However, the position of vanguard was finally given to Cai Mao by Liu Biao, and Wei Yan was sent to the rear army.

Wei Yan, who was already a somewhat sensitive person, immediately felt that Liu Biao was worried that his achievements would overshadow his own. This made Wei Yan feel that his future was bleak and he was very dissatisfied.

Unexpectedly, the situation changed so quickly that Wei Yan, who was in the rear army, had a glimmer of hope compared to the rest of the Jingzhou army.

By the time Liu Biao came out of the hole, Wei Yan had already led a dozen of his trusted men into the forest and disappeared without a trace.

Liu Yan could imagine that it would be difficult for Liu Biao to escape back to Jingzhou, and Wei Yan could also imagine it.

Wei Yan had no intention of dying here with Liu Biao, and he also knew that if he followed Liu Biao he would only be chased by countless Yizhou troops, so Wei Yan led a dozen of his trusted men and escaped into the mountains and forests.

"Wei Yan!!"

Liu Biao looked at Wei Yan who had disappeared without a trace, and knew that this man had abandoned him. This made Liu Biao very angry, but he could do nothing about it.

When the rest of the guards came out of the gap one after another, Liu Biao took a look and found that there were only about 600 of them left. This made Liu Biao feel sad, but he did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly fled towards the plank road he came from.

Due to the terrain, even though Liu Yan, who was on the mountain wall, had sent pursuers to the valley entrance early in advance to intercept Liu Biao, it was not easy for him to go around the high mountain wall and return to the valley entrance.

It was not until Liu Biao had been running for half an hour that a group of pursuers returned to the entrance of the valley and chased in the direction of Liu Biao.

However, through the small opening opened by Liu Biao, a steady stream of soldiers from Jingzhou also escaped, which also caused considerable obstacles to the pursuing troops sent by Liu Yan.

As Liu Yan walked away, the wailing sounds in the valley continued for half a day before the ambush was declared over.

Countless corpses were lying in the valley...

Among the nearly 100,000 Jingzhou troops, eight out of ten were killed or wounded.

In order to avoid the outbreak of plague, the Yizhou army naturally needed to clean up the battlefield, and even cleared the huge rocks blocking the two ends of the valley entrance to avoid blocking this important plank road in Ba County.

However, given the medical conditions in Yizhou, there was obviously no way to treat the seriously injured prisoners. Most of the injured prisoners were directly killed.

Even though Liu Yan sent 20,000 Yizhou soldiers to clean up the battlefield, it took until the next night to complete the cleanup.

'While chatting and laughing, one hundred thousand Jingzhou soldiers were reduced to ashes...' This undoubtedly made Liu Yan very proud. Even though there was no news of the capture of Liu Biao after a whole day, it did not affect Liu Yan's good mood. He simply sent a few more people to encircle and blockade the enemy.

In Liu Yan's view, Liu Biao was just like a bird locked in a cage but still refused to accept its fate. There was no possibility for him to fly out of Ba County.

……

And the fact was just as Liu Yan expected.

After Liu Biao escaped from the nightmare-like valley, he ran almost non-stop for a whole day and night, not daring to stop for fear of being caught by the pursuers from behind.

The undulating plank road built along the mountain left no room for cavalry to operate.

Whether it was Liu Biao or the pursuers behind him, they all relied on their feet to chase and escape.

Fortunately, Liu Biao had once been a marquis of the Northern Army and had trained his body. Even though he had ruled Jingzhou for several years, his foundation had not completely collapsed, nor had he been completely drained by alcohol and sex, so Liu Biao was able to hold on.

By now Liu Biao had fled back and forth along the plank road for hundreds of miles, and even when he passed by the Qunin City that he had once controlled, he did not dare to enter the city.

However, running without stopping for a whole day and night had not only drained all of Liu Biao's physical strength, but even most of the personal guards who had protected Liu Biao along the way had fallen behind, leaving only about 300 people, and almost all of them had reached their physical limit.

As it was getting dark, Liu Biao looked back at the plank road behind him and confirmed that the pursuers would not be able to catch up for a while, so he collapsed in the tunnel.

"Rest, rest for the whole night."

As Liu Biao's order came out, many of the personal guards who were also gritting their teeth and holding on collapsed to the ground one after another.

That is to say, Liu Biao usually treated these personal guards of humble origins with great kindness, and almost every personal guard was loyal to Liu Biao and was willing to die for him before he followed him here.

But after a day and a night of escape, the sudden relaxation made almost everyone, including Liu Biao, feel extremely sore legs and a feeling of about to lose consciousness.

As the sky gradually darkened, Liu Biao, who had been resting for a long time, finally took the water bag and dry food handed to him by his personal guards. After preparing to replenish his strength, he arranged for the sentries to stand guard to guard against the pursuers behind.

A voice filled with suppressed anger and ecstasy suddenly sounded at the corner about a hundred steps ahead.

"It is just as the teacher said. If Liu Biao suffers a great defeat, he will have to pass through this place when retreating."

As soon as these words were spoken, Liu Biao's face changed drastically and he struggled to get up.

However, the other guards who had just relaxed found it extremely difficult to stand up again.

At the corner where the voice came from, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, looking extremely heroic, walked out calmly. Behind Sun Ce were family generals such as Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and a group of soldiers fully armed.

Liu Biao's expression was tense and he felt desperate, and he spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Who are you? Are you someone sent by Liu Yan?"

Sun Ce had a gloomy face, suppressing his emotions and not letting them explode. He walked thirty steps away from Liu Biao before stopping and saying.

"You don't know me, but I know you!"

"Sun Bofu from Jiangdong has come to take your life to pay tribute to your father!" (End of this chapter)
