The knights on both sides collided, the war horses collided, and the knights stabbed each other with spears. There was no fancy, it was the simplest and most violent assassination. The war horses ran quickly, and life and death were only in a moment. No one knew whether they could survive. The next moment they stabbed their opponent, they might be stabbed by another opponent.

In a moment, many knights were dropped on both sides, but the losses of the Jizhou cavalry were even heavier. In addition to Wang Ze being shot by Ma Chao with an arrow, several knights around Wang Ze were also hit by short spears thrown by Pang De and others. The lethality of these short spears was stronger than that of crossbows, and shields and armor could not provide enough protection. Even the huge war horses could not bear it and fell to the ground with sadness. Flag-holding soldiers were the focus of the target, and even wearing spear armor, they were not spared. They died on the spot, and the battle flag in their hands was slammed.

After succeeding with one blow, Ma Chao felt relieved and whistled, the knights turned their horses' heads and broke into contact with the Jizhou knights.

Wang Ze and the knights around him were killed. The Jizhou knights not only lost their command, but also interrupted the charge formation, and chaos occurred. The knights behind them had no time to react, and the war horses in the zone fell one by one.

Seeing that the charge of the Jizhou knights was interrupted, Ma Chao and others broke out of contact and ran out of the coverage of the crossbow cart. The Hou of the powerful crossbow camp who opened his eyes widened and observed the situation shouted loudly. Ten crossbow carts began to shoot, two hundred feather arrows roared out, and then two hundred more.

The Jizhou knights were hit hard again, and more than a hundred cavalry were shot and dozens of people fell to the ground. Most of them could not die for a moment and whimpered on the ground. Seeing this, the other knights were shocked and avoided the shooting of the crossbow truck. If Wang Ze was not dead, he would definitely use the shortcomings of the slow shooting speed of the crossbow truck at this time to attack. However, without the command of the general, the knights fought on their own. No one was willing to risk being shot up and instinctively chose to save their lives. Even if someone wanted to go forward and rush forward, they were disturbed by others and could not accelerate in time.

The seemingly subtle differences led to a world of difference. Grasping this precious time, the crossbow cart re-rolled the strings and launched it again. Three consecutive shots, shooting 1,200 arrows, two or three hundred knights were injured in the arrows, and more than a hundred people fell to the ground, screams one after another, and sounded one after another. The dense arrows on the ground completely destroyed the fighting will of the Jizhou knights. No one dared to come forward to fight, and they scattered one after another, riding their horses and fleeing far away.

Ma Chao returned from the horse and chased the defeated soldiers. The crossbow chariot stopped shooting. An infantryman stepped forward and killed the injured Jizhou knights one by one. He also found Wang Ze's corpse and battle flag from the pile of corpses, cut off Wang Ze's head, inserted it on the flag spear, and sent it to the central army.

Seeing Wang Ze's head and battle flag, Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief. Brother Ma really lived up to his expectations and took one as ten, killing the generals in the face of battle. He sent someone to insert the head and battle flag between the two sides and demonstrated to Shen Pei.

Seeing Wang Ze’s battle flag and head, the Jizhou army was silent and silent.

Seeing someone coming from the opposite side holding Wang Ze's battle flag, Shen Pei had an ominous premonition. After obtaining Hu Qian's confirmation, his face turned blue and red, and his fingers were numb. He thought that the cavalry had obvious advantages and victory was not a problem, but he did not expect that he was severely injured as soon as he went to the battle, and even Wang Ze was killed by the formation.

Ma Chao is so good at fighting? He can even kill generals in front of the battle with one against five?

He was blocked by Sun Ce's formation and was too far apart. Shen Pei could not see the cavalry fighting. He couldn't understand why such a result occurred. In Yingchuan, Sun Ce had defeated the Hun cavalry twice. He recalled the battle story that Xun Yan said and analyzed the tactics that Sun Ce might have adopted. The more he thought about it, the less he felt. He was defeated twice, one because he was not familiar with the terrain, and the other because he was attacked by Yan Xing. Ma Chao participated in the battle both times. Shen Pei asked himself that he had enough knowledge of him and believed that Wang Ze was sure to win, so he sent Wang Ze to the battlefield.

But the result proved that he made a mistake in his judgment. Wang Ze was not only not Ma Chao's opponent, but also lost so quickly.

I don’t know if it was because of the weather or because of the tension, Shenpai’s forehead was covered with sweat, and her back was soaked with sweat, and the silky clothes were stuck to her body, which was very uncomfortable. The first battle was not good, Shenpai looked at the battle formation opposite, weighed the pros and cons, and tried to find a feasible tactic. After thinking about it, he found that he had no way to win, and everything was full of risks. In addition to having more than twice the advantage of military strength, he was controlled by Sun Ce everywhere.

Could it be that we can only fight with Sun Ce to sacrifice all these soldiers here? This should be the result that Guo Tu hopes most?

The sun is getting higher and higher and hotter. Even with a car cover, Shen Pei is still dizzy and has difficulty breathing. The weather in May is already hot, and it seems that Henan is hotter than Hebei by a river. Such weather is even more in thick battle robe. Under the scorching sun, even Hu Qian, who is in his prime, can't bear it, let alone Shen Pei is over fifty years old.

Shen Pei's mood became more and more anxious. He suddenly thought that if there was a heavy rain at this time, it would be good, at least it could cool down. As soon as the thought came, he immediately woke up and shook his head vigorously, throwing this ridiculous thought out of his mind. Tuo Yi was deceased by heavy rain, and he didn't want to follow Tuo Yi's footsteps.

At this time, Hu Qian reminded: "Shen Gong, Sun Ce seems to be going to attack."

"What?" Shen Pei was surprised and happy, and felt relieved. Although Sun Ce took the initiative to attack a little strangely, he finally didn't have to confront him in the scorching sun. Sun Ce was young and could hold on, but he couldn't hold on. He was almost dizzy, and maybe he would have heatstroke at any time.

Shen Pei wiped the sweat from his face, squinted his eyes, and looked into the distance. Hu Qian was right, Sun Ce was indeed attacking, and the left and right wings were changing formations, from the horizontal formation spreading north and south to the vertical formation, like two sharp knives, coming eastward.

What did he want to do? Shen Pei ordered the powerful crossbow soldiers to prepare for shooting and intercept Sun Ce while analyzing Sun Ce's possible tactics. He didn't quite understand Sun Ce's intention. It was not surprising that Sun Ce took the initiative to attack, but what was going on with the left and right wings at once, and even tempted the temptation and attacked directly? If this is true, Shen Pei would be relieved. He had seven thousand powerful crossbow soldiers, which was enough to make Sun Ce pay a heavy price. But he felt that Sun Ce would not do this. Sun Ce was strong, but he was not stupid and would not make such a decision that was similar to killing him.

He must have had some tricks, but I didn't expect [     Fast Update].

Shen Pei was sweating like rain, and her face looked even more ugly. I wonder if it was because Sun Ce's subordinates were approaching, and the sky and earth in front of him were brighter, so bright that it made people unable to open their eyes. Hu Qian felt something was wrong with Shen Pei, so he hurriedly held Shen Pei, helped him sit down on Hu's bed, and took the prepared cold water, fed Shen Pei and drank two sips.

Shen Pei recovered a little, raised his hand weakly, and gasped: "Gongxing, take a closer look at Sun Ce's formation and tell me, don't let go of any suspicious points."

"Okay." Hu Qian said, looking up, suddenly exclaimed, and said to the guard beside him: "What is that shining? Is the armored cavalry?"
