Chapter 20: The Reward for Saving Your Life
After the three people dressed as hunters reacted, they found that dozens of horses quickly surrounded them, and looking at the costumes, it was the guards under Sun Ce's command.
Only then did they react, they felt that their every move that had been very secretive had been known to Sun Ce in advance.
What made them even more helpless was that the person who was preparing to shoot the deer there before was obviously not Sun Ce, even if they wanted to kill Sun Ce in advance, they no longer knew where Sun Ce was.
After these dozens of horses were in place, without saying a word, they directly killed these three people.
Although the three of them didn't expect such a situation, they were obviously all battle-hardened figures, so they immediately formed a formation on the spot, took out the short knife in their hands, and immediately fought with the Jiangdong guards who were chasing after them.
More than twenty guards, that are the most elite forces around Sun Ce, besides, they are condescending with war horses, they thought that these three assassins would be taken down in an instant, but they were wrong.
The three of them were back to back facing several galloping horses, and when the horses approached, they suddenly dodged, jumped up, and after each chose a target, jumped on a warrior's horse.
After getting on the horse, the three of them immediately had a fight with the guards on the horse, and when they got close, many of the guards realized that these three people were definitely masters, and if they fought alone, most of them would not be opponents.
Not far away, on the top of a large tree, a figure sat on a thick branch, paying attention to the situation in front of him.
With the abilities of these three people, even if I fell into their trap, I am afraid that I would really be worried about my life, but how did he know about this layer?
It was Sun Ce who sat on the big tree and secretly observed, this was not his character, but after reading the letter that Liu Xie gave him, he naturally didn't dare to casually put himself in such a big risk, so he arranged such a fishing bridge, but he didn't expect it to be the same as Liu Xie reminded in the letter, the three masters were already waiting for him here.
Sun Ce understood that since the other party could send such a master, his whereabouts must have been under the close surveillance of others, even if he didn't come to hunt in the mountains today, he would never stay in Wu Jun's mansion all the time, once he came out a little, they would immediately take action against him.
With or without intention, what is the probability that he can dodge, Sun Ce knows it himself.
"Order, don't let any of them go, try to leave one alive!"
Sun Ce saw that his guards had already begun to have casualties, and hurriedly gave an order.
Although he can be regarded as relying on the ability of Liu Xie, an unknown prophet who came from, to escape such a catastrophe that makes him a little confused, Sun Ce is a person with revenge, and he must know which of his enemies sent him to do it.
Zhou Yu had reminded him not long ago that if Sun Ce could regard himself as a general who charged into battle a few years ago, now he must regard himself as the overlord of one side, and staying alive is sometimes much more important than killing many enemies.
Liu Xie didn't know if he could pit himself Sun Ce, but Zhou Yu would definitely not pit himself, he was very sure of this.
For Sun Ce, Zhou Yu is not just his confidant, he is one of the few people who has gotten along with him, and he is a person who has proven that he can help him in the snow, this relationship is even deeper in Sun Ce's heart than the old ministers who were loyal to Jiangdong that he inherited from his father.
The reason why Cheng Pu, Zhang Zhao and others assisted Sun Ce was because Sun Ce was Sun Jian's son, but Zhou Yu was by his side because he was Sun Ce.
Looking at the fierce fighting not far away, Sun Ce's expression, which was still a little calm, gradually stiffened, and after a long time, a guard covered in blood came to Sun Ce, and Sun Ce had already come down from the tree at this time, with his hands behind his back and his face solemn.
"Lord, these three people are very good at kung fu, they are not too many masters, they have killed our eleven brothers one after another, and they all drew their swords to kill themselves before they exhausted their strength, we are incompetent, please punish the lord!"
The guards knelt on the ground, obviously quite aggrieved, they have followed Sun Ce behind them all these years, although the first purpose is to protect Sun Ce's safety, but they have always been their share in killing others, and they have never been killed like this in the territory of Jiangdong.
The three of them killed eleven of them, although they were almost exhausted if they continued to fight, but they decisively ended their lives before they were exhausted, which made them feel like they had nowhere to use their strength for a while, although they did face three corpses in the end, but there was no joy of victory, and they had also been ordered by Sun Ce before, and they wanted to live.
"You died for me, why should I punish you, and this matter is not considered by me, I never expected these three to be so strong, they have made all preparations, you have done a good job, before the three of them snatched the war horses respectively, and wanted to break through from three directions, you blocked them in the circle alive, this is enough, if they let one of them escape, it will not be a good thing for me and for Jiangdong."
Sun Ce is not just a martial artist, he has a faint feeling in his heart, but he still can't grasp the point.
Looking at the three corpses on the ground, Sun Ce understood that if it weren't for Liu Xie's secret letter that even Zhang Hong didn't let him see, most of the people lying here would be himself, a person who had just dominated Jiangdong.
"Take the corpse and go back to the city!"
Dropping such a sentence, Sun Ce turned his head and left, he was indeed a little grateful to Liu Xie, but he also clearly remembered Liu Xie's words at the end of the letter.
If it is what I said, as a reward, the two women surnamed Qiao you just brought back to Wu County, don't keep them for yourself, and let them wait for me there after I have built the palace in Wu County!
Sun Ce didn't understand why the two stunning women he had finally found were known to Liu Xie, who was far away in Xuchang, and he really hadn't moved these two women, so he was ready to give one of himself and the other to his good brother Zhou Yu.
The reason why he didn't move, on the one hand, was that he had just returned to Wu County during this time, and he had been building a palace for Liu Xie's upcoming arrival, and on the other hand, Sun Ce hadn't thought about whether he wanted an eldest sister or a younger sister.
But now, Sun Ce doesn't have to think about it, whether it's the eldest sister or the younger sister, he can't keep it.
