I rode and slashed unparalleled in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 663 The Tiger's Determination

"Damn, how come they came so fast!"

Sun Jian gritted his teeth, his eyes flashing with unwillingness and anger.

He thought he could take advantage of Zu Mao and others' delay to reorganize the defense and resist Su Yao's offensive.

However, reality slapped him hard in the face.

Su Yao's armored cavalry seemed tireless. They broke through one line of defense after another and rushed straight towards him.

"Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, you must stop them!"

Sun Jian shouted loudly and waved the spear in his hand, trying to boost the morale of the soldiers.

However, facing the heavy armored cavalry that was like a torrent of steel, the soldiers had only fear and despair in their eyes.

They dropped their weapons and ran away, as if they never wanted to face that terrible death again.

"Don't panic, don't be confused!"

Huang Gai and Cheng Pu shouted loudly, trying to stabilize their position.

However, under Su Yao's unstoppable offensive, their efforts seemed so powerless.

The heavily armored cavalry rushed into Sun Jian's army like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable.

They brandished spears and swords, and the horses under them trampled the ground with a deafening sound.

Soldiers fell one after another under this fierce onslaught, wailing sounds rising one after another.

Sun Jian took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and felt an unprecedented despair in his heart.

Not only did the power of the armored cavalry far exceed his imagination, but the bravery of the champion marquis was even more unstoppable.

The soldiers under his command, who had no time to form a tight formation, fell down like straw under the impact of the iron hooves.

At this moment, Sun Jian is very clear that he has reached a crossroads of despair.

If he makes the wrong choice, not only will his life be lost, but decades of hard work will also be wasted.

At this critical moment, countless thoughts flashed through Sun Jian's mind. He wanted to fight hard, but he could not find any possibility of victory.

Su Yao came too quickly and did not give him any chance to regroup. Sun Jian knew very well that if he continued to fight head-on, it would be like hitting a rock with an egg.

But retreat?

It would be extremely difficult to evacuate safely when being attacked from both sides.

Just when he was hesitating and struggling, Su Yao had already arrived.

"kill!"

Su Yao was alone, charging wildly into the formation, knocking down the soldiers who blocked his way one by one and flying into the sky.

Sun Jian and others saw Su Yao, covered in blood, like a god of war descending to earth in the crowd. Wherever he went, people and horses fell to the ground, and no one could stop him.

Every time he swung his lance, it would take away a life, as if the god of death was reaping innocent souls.

With Su Yao leading the way, the armored cavalry behind him also displayed unparalleled combat effectiveness on the battlefield.

They were dressed in heavy armor, holding sharp spears and swords, and the war horses they rode were carefully selected and trained, and were strong and powerful.

Behind Su Yao, these heavily armored knights were like ruthless bulldozers, wreaking havoc on the battlefield and knocking Sun Jian's soldiers to the ground, leaving them with no power to fight back.

This scene made Sun Jian's eyes burst with anger.

The elite soldiers he had worked so hard to gather were slaughtered and chopped to death like lambs to be slaughtered.

These soldiers collapsed almost at the first sight.

One after another people began to escape.

On the road cleared by Su Yao and others, no one dared to step forward to stop them.

People could only watch the steel torrent sweeping in.

Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and others were extremely anxious when they saw this. They knew that continuing to fight would only lead to greater losses.

"It's no use!" Cheng Pu urged, "Envoy, retreat quickly!"

"That's right, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood!"

Huang Gai also shouted anxiously:

"If it's any later, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave!"

Sun Jian stared at the heavily armored cavalrymen rushing in front of him like a tide, his eyes widened, and his hand holding the knife was bleeding from being pierced by his nails. Sun Jian had been a soldier all his life, and he could see the situation clearly without Huang Gai and others reminding him.

The defeat was like a landslide, and his army, attacked from all sides, was beyond the reach of any gods or ghosts.
But, because of this, the fire in his chest was instantly ignited.

He, Sun Wentai, is nicknamed the Jiangdong Tiger!
That's not just bragging by the soldiers; it's something he gained by wearing armor and fighting on the battlefield since he was young.

Even if he is not the most defeated, he still wins every battle.

When had Sun Jian ever suffered such humiliation?
However, the cruel reality forces us to bow our heads.

If he didn't want his tiger legend to end here and the Sun family's hard-earned foundation to be destroyed, he had to evacuate as soon as possible.

However, even if he evacuates, he cannot run away in a cowardly manner!

He must do his best to save his army.

"withdraw!"

Sun Jian's eyes were filled with fighting spirit:
"I'll cover you, you guys quickly evacuate!"

"what?!"

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Wu Jing, Sun Jing, Sun Ben and others were all stunned.

"No, Envoy!"

Huang Gai immediately advised:

"The enemy was fierce and fierce, and the envoy personally cut off their retreat and narrowly escaped death."

"If anything happens to you, our cause will be ruined!"

"Yes, Wentai, you must not be impulsive!"

When Wu Jing saw that Sun Jian was not leaving, he immediately shouted anxiously, with a hint of tears in his voice:
"Even if you don't care about my sister, can you be so cruel as to abandon Bofu and Zhongmou?"

"And your unborn child, don't you want to see him?"

"Tai Wen, let's retreat quickly. You can't risk your life just to save face!"

"madness!"

Sun Jian drew his sword, his eyes red:
"Do you think I did that for face?"

"It is precisely because the thieves are so ferocious and because I have to consider my family, that only if I personally cover your retreat can you have a chance of survival!"

"I am the commander-in-chief of the three armies. I am responsible for the defeat in this battle. If I were to flee first, the army would be disbanded in an instant."

"What's the point of me surviving then?!"

"No need to say more, just evacuate immediately!"

Everyone looked at each other in surprise. They knew that what Sun Jian said made sense.

However, Sun Jian was more than just an ordinary general and subordinate to them.

They are comrades-in-arms who have been through life and death together, relatives connected by blood, and brothers as close as brothers.

Emotionally, they could not accept watching Sun Jian face death alone, and they could not tolerate him sacrificing himself to save them.

Not to mention, Sun Jian himself is indispensable to their Sun Group.

Even if they managed to escape with their lives, if Sun Jian was gone, the business they had created with their own hands would be handed over to others, the team would fall apart, and everyone would have to live a life of dependence on others.

"Envoy, we will never leave you to escape alone!" Cheng Pu said firmly, his eyes full of determination and indomitable spirit.

"Yes, we swear to live and die with you!" Huang Gai also echoed loudly, his voice revealing endless passion and tragedy.

Wu Jing, Sun Jing and others also expressed their stance, vowing to live and die with Sun Jian and never back down.

Sun Jian looked at these loyal comrades, his heart filled with emotion and helplessness.

He knew very well that these people were truly willing to go through fire and water for him, at all costs.

However, Sun Jian also understood that he could not let them sacrifice in vain for him.

"I appreciate your kindness, but this is my decision."

Sun Jian took a deep breath, swung his sword, and said without question:
"I've made up my mind!"

"If I am unfortunately unable to return, I hope you brothers can take care of my family!"
