"He" has long since dropped the spear in his hand. Sun Ce's ability to fight Tai Shici for hundreds of rounds is all due to the steel knife in his hand and his own ancient sword skills. Once again, Taishi Ci took a step closer. With an angry roar, he slashed down with the steel knife in his hand. At the same time, he stepped back slightly. The little overlord of Jiangdong, who was already injured, could no longer show off his strength at this moment.
Taishi Ci saw that Sun Ce still had the strength to counterattack, but he slowly approached him without any rush. This battle was destined to be won, so his task was to entangle the young master of Jiangdong in front of him so that he would not have a chance. Escape. There is a plan to annihilate the Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and capturing Sun Ce would be an unexpected surprise for Jizhou.
"Don't hurt my young master." As a veteran of Jiangdong and one of the Four Court Pillars under Sun Jian, Han Dang knew that today's battle was over when he heard the sound of horses trampling behind him. But even so, he couldn't just surrender, not only because he was Jiangdong's son, but also because Sun Ce was still in front and had not escaped danger.
Rushing forward with more than a hundred soldiers gathered around him, Han Dang also appeared in front of Taishi Ci and Sun Ce as he wished. However, when he saw Sun Ce's embarrassed appearance, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart. If he arrived too late, then what would happen if he arrived too late? My young master is probably just
He didn't dare to think about this idea, nor did he think about it. After seeing Sun Ce being defeated by Taishi Ci, Han Dang stood up and blocked Taishi Ci's painted halberd, and asked the young master to hurry up. Retreat and inform the lord of our ambush. "
"Want to leave? Stay with me." Tai Shici is not having a good time now. After all, his opponent is the Little Overlord of Jiangdong. Even if he fights hard, he will take advantage of his age, but he will never be able to win completely. Sun Ce's armor was torn, and there were many wounds on his shoulders and body. He was also humiliated by Sun Ce, his helmet fell off, and his abdomen was also opened.
He shouted angrily and took action, holding a halberd in his left hand to push up Han Dang's spear, but his right hand was directed at Sun Ce. The latter waved the steel knife to stop him, but took a big step back with Tai Shici's momentum. When the two distanced themselves, the soldiers who arrived with Han Dang protected him and evacuated to the edge of the mountain road battlefield.
Taishi Ci is still just a human being after all. Although he still suppressed Han Dang with his injured body, he could not get rid of him. With Sun Ce in front, he was not very interested in Han Dang, a veteran Jiangdong general. However, the opponent risked his life to stop him. Taishi Ci, who was unable to pursue Sun Ce, could only pour out all his anger on Han Dang. .
As a brave and courageous person among the Four Court Pillars of Jiangdong, Han Dang is not afraid of Taishi Ci. He sweeps and stabs the opponent with the spear in his hand. Even if he cannot capture and kill the opponent, he can still cause Taishi Ci a lot of trouble. But it all started quickly and ended quickly. When Zhao Yun led the white horse cavalry from the alley, a sharp arrow flew out and pierced Han Dang's right shoulder.
"Poof", Han Dang was suddenly attacked by an arrow. The unprepared Han Dang was stunned and blood flowed from his mouth. This moment of pause allowed Taishi Ci to seize the opportunity and draw his halberd straight into Han Dang's arm like a cold knife. "Hissing" came another burst of pain, and he could hardly hold on to the spear in his hand.
¡°Yi Gong~~¡± Although Sun Ce was retreating, his eyes were fixed on Tai Shici and the two of them. When he saw Han Dang being hit repeatedly by an arrow in the back, he immediately exclaimed. Then his face gradually turned decisive, he threw away the two soldiers who had been holding him back, shouted angrily and rushed into the battlefield with his sword again, slashing two crossbowmen before coming to Taishi Ci again.
"You still dare? Looking for death?" Taishi Ci looked at Sun Ce who was charging again, and swung his halberd quickly, but he wanted to take advantage of the victory and kill Han Dang first. However, any famous general in the world is not easy to kill. They can always burst out with stronger strength and tenacity after being severely injured. Just like Han Dang now. Although his right arm and right shoulder were injured, he still has a spear in his hand. But it is getting sharper.
"Zhang Yide from Yan is here, the traitor will die." Zhao Yun has appeared, Zhang Fei also killed the mountain road. Fortunately, the crossbow soldiers on both sides retreated in time, otherwise they would have been seriously injured by Zhang Fei and his cavalry. Zhang Fei's appearance has always been so exciting, making Xu Huang shake his head and smile bitterly, but after the bitter smile, the eyes he looked at the Jiangdong soldiers in front were full of murderous intent.
Zhao Yun rode a horse and rushed past Han Dang. He picked up his Yajiao gun and knocked Han Dang's spear away. Then he used the gun as a stick and hit Han Dang hard on the back. After the first attack, his heart had been wounded by a sharp arrow, and now he was hit hard by Zhao Yun. A mouthful of scarlet spurted out, his eyes were black, and his body fell down, but he fainted directly on the battlefield. After doing all this, Zhao Yun He galloped away like a normal person and charged to the side.
"This guy" Taishi Ci rubbed the sharp mark on his chest armor that was scratched by Han Dang. He knew that Zhao Yun was afraid of being injured by Han Dang's desperate counterattack before he came to help. However, how could the proud and arrogant Taishi Ci be willing to accept this help? He twitched the corner of his mouth and turned his eyes to Sun Ce who was running away. He, Taishi Ci, must have a good record in battle.
There are a total of 18,000 Jiangdong children, and since entering the mountain road, no one canComing out, one by one fell to the ground under the impact of the bow cavalry and light cavalry. Sun Ce gave up the only possible chance of escape because of Han Dang. When he was surrounded by Xu Huang in addition to Taishi Ci, he was unable to even commit suicide. When the steel knife in his hand was knocked away, he could only become a prisoner of the battle. one of them.
From noon to evening, the chill in the mountain road gradually dissipated. When the general returned to the city with a mile-long prisoner team, something was not good for Sun Jian and others in the Jiangdong camp. It seemed that something unexpected had happened.
"General Guan, the city ahead is Xiapi City. According to the detective report, the people in the city have begun to migrate to Yuzhou at this moment." It had been two days since the great victory in the mountain road. Guan Yu, who had left the camp, finally walked out of Donghai County. , came to Xiapi, which was occupied by Cao Cao's troops, where he was about to start the work assigned to him by Zhen Yao.
Guan Yu habitually stroked the long beard on his chin, looked straight ahead, and at the same time gave the order to the four lieutenants beside him. You and the others will each receive 2,000 cavalry points to pursue from the southwest and southeast of Xiapi City. Once any officers and soldiers of Cao's army forcibly robbed people, they would be killed and escorted back to their hometowns. Meet in Guangling in two days, no delay."
"Nuo" the four lieutenants were ordered to leave, and the thousands of soldiers who were greeting them rushed towards the official road ahead. After all four of his lieutenants had left, Guan Yu looked back at the two thousand soldiers behind him, and said, "Follow me and kill them all." Go into the city"
Although Xiapi City was temporarily captured by Cao Cao, because Xuzhou was still in the war period, these remote cities did not have many guards even the county guards, and the prefects had not changed and were still Tao Qian's former subordinates.
Seeing Guan Yu coming with his troops and horses, the soldiers outside the city were already dead before they could react. Then he captured the city of Xiapi without wasting much effort from Guan Yu. With only half a stick of incense, the city declared a change of flag. Retaking the governor's land was only the first step in his plan. Immediately afterwards, Guan Yu began to post large notices in the city, and at the same time sent soldiers to bring back the people who had not gone far into the city.
Guan Yu was very busy in Xiapi, but Zhen Yao came to Cao Ying every day to block people. However, all the generals in his hands were in the city. No matter how Cao Mengde called the formation, Zhen Yao did not fight with the generals. Every day, both sides They all just fight with each other.
On the first day, Xia Houyuan failed to get an advantage from the sword and shield soldiers, and on the second day, Cao Hong was defeated in front of Zhen Yao's personal army. The continuous defeats forced Cao Cao to face a helpless reality. Compared with the soldiers under his command, the soldiers he had recruited from Yan and Yu in the past two years were no match for the elite soldiers that Zhen Yao had trained in the past ten years.
On the third day, Cao Cao no longer fought against him, and when he called for formation, he wanted Xia Houyuan and others to recover the fallen morale of the generals. Naturally, Zhen Yao would not fight with Cao Cao at this time. After being blocked in front of Cao's camp for nearly an hour without seeing any of Cao's soldiers leaving the camp, he slowly left with his soldiers and returned to the main camp.
Now, Zhen Yao could have led his troops into Tan City, but he still led his troops to station outside the city, but he wanted to leave an impression on the many people in Xuzhou that Zhen Yao came to deal with Cao Cao, and Cao Cao If Cao and others don't leave the boundaries of Xuzhou, they won't enter the city either.
This seems to be meaningless, but with a little publicity, it will definitely add a lot of help to Zhen Yao's rule in Xuzhou, and it will be more conducive to controlling the hearts of the people. Perhaps they saw what their lord was thinking, but on the fourth day, Xu Huang and Zhang Fei each left the city with a few soldiers and horses, and went to the camp outside the city to report to their lord.
"My lord." It's another quarter, leaving my lord's side. When Zhang Fei came to the outside of the camp and saw Zhen Yao waiting at the entrance of the camp, he immediately got off his horse and ran forward without waiting for his feet. He came to Zhen Yao and clasped his fists in front of Zhen Yao to greet his lord. "
"I haven't seen you in a hundred days. Yide has made great progress. Come on, follow me into the camp." Zhen Yao no longer needs to walk with a wooden stick. After a month of nursing, Zhen Yao has almost recovered from his external and internal injuries. He also felt the same when he saw Zhang Fei. Very happy, she pulled him and walked straight inside.
When meeting Zhen Yao, he couldn't help but report on the recent war situation. Because there were too many things going on in Tancheng, Xuzhou, Zhen Yao and his generals ate and listened, but it took an hour to finish listening. After knowing that most of the noble forces in the city had been taken care of by Xu You and Mi Zhu, he was not in a hurry to enter the city. After all, once he entered, it meant that new changes would be initiated in the city.
If Zhen Yao was most surprised among these things, it was when Zhang Fei's generals annihilated and captured nearly 20,000 Jiangdong soldiers and horses, and captured Han Dang and Sun Ce. Although Zhenyao was quite curious about Zhao Yun knocking Han Dang unconscious, he did not ask any questions.
On the other hand, Taishi Ci captured Sun Ce, which made Zhen Yao couldn't help but think to himself: History is turning, and the little overlord was defeated by Ziyi. It is also unclear whether Sun Ce can be like Taishi Ci in history and bring his subordinates. Return together. Of course, this kind of fantasy just flashed through Zhen Yao's mind. After all, the Sun family would not treat others as ministers, let alone Sun Jian is still alive.
Mocking her chin and thinking for a while, Zhen YaoThe corner of his head was slightly raised, and he sent a message asking Ziyuan to take care of these two people. I will be of great use if you keep me. "At the same time, I was secretly happy in my heart, Sun Jian, Sun Jian, most of you are in my hands now, and you are still fighting with me in Xuzhou. Compared with Zhen Yao's secret joy, the Jiangdong camp was in chaos, and nearly 20,000 soldiers were lost. It was a huge blow to Jiangdong. Yangzhou was still a barren land with a very small population at the end of the Han Dynasty. Now it has lost so many soldiers and horses all at once. This has undoubtedly increased the power of Jiangdong. I am afraid that it will not be able to go out for expeditions in a few years. .
What's worse than this is that Sun Ce's whereabouts are unknown now, but Xu You and the generals had bad intentions and captured the other party's young lord without even knowing a word from the other party. At this moment, in the Jiangdong Camp, everyone from Sun Jian to the civil and military officials had speculations in their hearts, but they neither dared nor wanted to accept this fact.
Jiangdong Zhoulang has lost his charm of the past few days, and is alone in the tent without saying a word. Although Sun Jian, as the lord, does not punish him more, it is this that makes Zhou Yu sad. It was he who suggested that Sun Ce should suffer some hardships, and it was he who suggested that he should "take advantage of the situation" and kill the Jizhou soldiers.
But now three days later, not to mention victory, not even a single soldier from Jiangdong could escape. He also sent troops to carefully explore the mountain road where the battle took place, but the result was that the Jizhou generals suffered no more than a thousand casualties. In exchange for ten times more military exploits.
Nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out. In addition to the losses in the siege these days, Sun Jian only had 18,000 available soldiers in the camp. With only this few soldiers, how could he fight Cao Cao or even Zhen Yao in Xuzhou. If it hadn't been for the lack of news until now, Sun Jian would have withdrawn his troops back to Jiangdong in despair.
The situation in Xuzhou gradually became clearer. At this moment, Wenpin and Liu Pan, who were leading the troops into Yuzhang with Liu Biao's military order, looked at the soldier and horse in front of them with deep expressions. As old neighbors in Jiangdong, they knew very well that there were many Wuxi barbarians and Shanyue barbarians scattered in Kuaiji and Wu counties. Ke Gui, this was the first time he had seen it with his own eyes, so both of them looked at the soldiers and horses in front of them very cautiously.
"Are these Han soldiers from Jingzhou in front of us?" Compared with the caution of Wenpin and his two men, the Wuxi barbarians who led the troops here were much more arrogant. The leader was about thirty years old, with a beard on his face, and his fluffy and slender hair hanging casually on the back of his head without being tied up. His clothes were also very different from those of the Han people, with only a simple layer of animal clothing. Wrapped in leather.
"If it weren't for his burly appearance and the heavy steel fork in his hand, everyone who saw him would probably think he was a madman. After all, this barbarian looks too scary. Compared with the leading barbarian, the barbarians behind him were even less human-like. Some were dancing like gods and some were screaming like ghosts. Anyway, they didn't look like an army.
The barbarian had already spoken. The two men, Wen and Pin, looked at each other without losing their momentum. After looking at each other, the general Liu Pan patted his horse and left a certain house. It was Jingzhou Liu Pan. Who are you? Why are you blocking our army's path? "Although Liu Pan is the nephew of Liu Biao, a scribe, he is an out-and-out military general. He is taller and taller than Wenpin, and his stature is not far behind that of the barbarian leader.
"That's right, I am Shakui, the Wuxi Barbarian King of Jiangdong. I have been ordered to drive you back to Jingzhou." The barbarian leader stepped on his big feet and stabbed the ground with the steel fork in his hand, but he hit a big butt. of stones crushed. At the same time, he raised his head and shouted coldly: If you all give it to me now, I will be in trouble."
Sha Kui said it lightly, but Liu Pan couldn't help frowning. They originally thought that Jiangdong's infantry were heading north and the navy was being restrained by Jiangxia Huangzu, so there would no longer be soldiers and horses, but they didn't expect that Sun Jian could actually rule them. The barbarians took it for their own use. Looking at the complacent look of the barbarian leader in front of him, I'm afraid the benefits he got from the Sun family were not as simple as the title of 'Barbarian King'.
"You wait for the barbarians to no longer live in the mountains, but you dare to lead troops to stop our Han Heavenly Soldiers. Do you know the consequences?" Liu Pan stared coldly at the barbarians in front, waved his long knife in his hand, and his officers slowly stepped forward. Although the Jingzhou infantry have not participated in battles for a long time, their superiority has always made them look down on the so-called barbarians at all, at least for now.
The disdain of Liu Pan and his soldiers made the Wuxi barbarians furious. A young barbarian who was following Shakui stepped out and said, "Father, these Han people look down on me and Wuxi Erlang, so let me and Let him fight alone and let him know how powerful we are."
Shakui was also unhappy with the Han people in front of him in his heart. Although he was defeated by the white-faced general from Jiangdong, not everyone could underestimate him so much. When he asked for a fight, he agreed to say hello, Shamoko is worthy of being my Fifth Commander. Son, go and let the Han people know what we are capable of."
Samoko is worthy of being one of the few barbarian kings who will leave his name in later generations. He is only less than ten years old, and he is carrying a large caltrop bone in his hand, but he is very powerful. He walked out of the battle formation and came a hundred steps in front of Liu Pan. He held up his gun and said coldly, "Wu Na Han, I am Wuxi Samoko. Do you dare to fight with me alone?" "
"Why don't you dare? Watch me dismount and fight you." If it were Koto TakeruGeneral, Liu Pan may have to think about it before making a decision, but facing the Wuxi barbarians, Liu Pan felt that this was an opportunity. Although I have never seen these barbarians, I have heard that these barbarians prefer personal force. If they defeat him one-on-one, there is no guarantee that this battle will be avoided.
Seeing Liu Pan finish speaking, Wenpin got off his horse and couldn't help but remind General Dao that the weapons in this man's hands were a bit strange and he might have supernatural powers. You can fight with him, and when he is exhausted, you will have a chance to win. "
Wenpin said that it was indeed a solution. Liu Pan turned his head and nodded slightly before striding forward. The steel knife in his hand was swung sideways and he said in a deep voice, "Come and attack. Let me see what you can rely on to block our army's path."
"These barbarians don't know how to be humble. Since you said you wanted me to attack first, you're welcome." Shamoko suddenly pumped his hands so hard that all the veins popped out. Then he yelled angrily and rushed towards Liu Pan with the tribulus bones in his hands raised high. Perhaps it was because the weight of his body and his legs were too heavy, and every step he took would leave a deep mark of half a foot on the ground.
"àá" The gun hit Liu Pan with a sound that broke through the air. The latter took a step back without haste and collided with him from the left side with the steel knife in his hand. ¡®Ding, ding, ding¡¯ The big iron thorns on the caltrops bones collided with the steel knife, causing a high temperature.
"It's such a powerful force. You can't come into contact with it unless it's your opponent." Liu Pan's fingers holding the steel knife began to move. Just after the brief contact, the handle of the knife in his hand trembled involuntarily dozens of times. , so that the hand holding the knife was a little numb. After suffering a secret loss, Liu Pan was alert in his heart, and the barbarian in front of him was difficult to deal with.
