How did Sun Ce die in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms?

According to records, Xu Gong reported to Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty that Sun Ce was brave and should be recalled from Beijing to control his use, so as to avoid future troubles. When this watch was obtained by one of Sun Ce's spies, Sun Ce blamed Xu Gong and ordered him to be killed. After Xu Gong's death, his followers hid in the folk to avenge him.

The assassin shot at Sun Ce at the first opportunity, and this time he seriously wounded Sun Ce. After being shot by an arrow, Sun Ce was in unbearable pain and died of his injuries on the night of April 4th of the same year at the age of 26.
