Chapter Twenty-Six: The Little Overlord
"The revenge of killing my father is not shared with the sky!Gao Cheng, I, Sun Ce, swear to the sky that I will cut off your head with my own hands!" Sun Ce gritted his teeth and swore secretly in his heart.
A few years ago, he received the news of his father's death, so he took his family to Yuzhou to join Yuan Shu, after all, when the princes met the alliance, Sun Jian was a general under Yuan Shu. With this layer of origin, Yuan Shu saw that Sun Jian had worked for him, and generously accepted the other party.
Sun Ce's appearance is outstanding, his heroic spirit is extraordinary, and he has stepped into the realm of refining in just two or three years, and his strength has progressed extremely fast, and he has directly chased Yuan Shu's henchman Ji Ling. He soon rose to prominence in the army and was gradually valued by Yuan Shu. He was appointed as the captain of Zhichong, and his status was only below Ji Ling and Zhang Xun.
Without Gao Cheng's existence, Sun Ce had the resources left by his father and had a great chance of becoming the lord of Yangzhou. However, now that Yangzhou has fallen into the hands of Gao Cheng, he wants to become a small overlord and dominate the Central Plains, so he can only find another territory.
After Gao Cheng came to this world, he had a deep impact on the direction of this world, and Liu Bei, who would have become the lord of Xuzhou, now joined forces with Gongsun Zan to fight against Yuan Shao in Youzhou. The land of Guanzhong was occupied by Wang Mang. Wang Yun and LĂź Bu joined forces to occupy Bingzhou. The original timeline has been altered beyond recognition.
"Bo Fu, why are you still here, the Lord is summoning us to the big tent to discuss it!Come with me!" At this time, a middle-aged general in armor not far away came over and said.
His gaze swept over Sun Ce's face, as if he had sensed the deep hatred in the other party's heart, and followed Sun Ce's gaze to look at the camp of the Yangzhou army opposite.
By this time, the shouts of the battalion on the opposite side had gradually become lower. You don't need to look to know that Gao Cheng personally led reinforcements to reinvigorate the originally demoralized Yangzhou army, and if you want to defeat your opponent, you will have to fight a hard battle.
"Uncle, you said that we will fight against Gao Cheng this time, what are the chances of winning?" Sun Ce had a strong hatred in his heart, and he wanted to kill his enemy immediately, but he also knew that Gao Cheng had been in Yangzhou for several years, and Yangzhou had accumulated an unknown amount of grain and grass and trained many troops over the years. It is definitely not an easy task to defeat and kill him.
The middle-aged general who was called his uncle by Sun Ce was Zhang Xun, a general under Yuan Shu. The Lujiang Zhang clan where he was located was uprooted by Gao Cheng in one fell swoop, and he had the same bitter hatred for Gao Cheng as Sun Ce.
Both of them have an enemy, so they avoid some feelings of sympathy, so under Yuan Shu, Zhang Xun and Sun Ce have an excellent relationship, and they are commensurate with uncles and nephews.
"What are the chances of winning? Hahahaha, is Fei Bofu worried that he won't be able to win this battle?"
Zhang Xun laughed when he heard this, and he had a strong confidence in Yuan Shu in his expression. He smiled and said, "Bo Fu, do you know that in order to deal with Gao Cheng, the lord has invited five family elders from Runan, and one of them has cultivated to the ninth level of soul refining, holding an artifact, which can almost be compared to the legendary gods!"
"In addition to the five family elders, there are also the battle formations we have trained according to the Soldier Sacred Book, and the million-strong army under the command of General Ji! Such strength is enough to sweep the Central Plains! And Gao Cheng is just a side branch of the Bohai Gao Clan, with a shallow background, even if he can urge the Jade Seal of the Inheritance Kingdom, he can't stop our full attack!"
Sun Ce nodded slowly, indeed, with the full support of the Runan Yuan clan, what could Gao Cheng do even if he had the heirloom jade seal? He was invincible with two fists and four hands, and the Yuan clan dispatched five powerful family elders, each of whom was a powerful master. Coupled with Yuan's artifact, he can definitely defeat Gao Cheng.
Yangzhou military camp.
Hundreds of thousands of troops came down from the warships, and Jiang Qin and Dong Xi led the army to expand the camp and carry the baggage. And Gao Cheng, Xi Zhicai, and Zhou Cang came to the big tent of the Chinese army under the leadership of Wu Anguo.
"Lord!"
As soon as Gao Cheng entered the big tent, Lu Dai, Zhou Tai and Chen Wu greeted him, among them, Lu Dai and Chen Wu were pale, and their bodies were still a little similar, only Zhou Tai's cultivation of the exercises was extremely fast, and he could no longer see weakness on the surface, and he had the strength to go into battle again.
"The subordinates were too careless, and they were plotted by Yuan Shu's army, which led to the defeat of our army and the huge losses, and I also asked the lord to surrender!" Lu Dai bowed down with shame on his face.
He is the commander of this army, and he has an unshirkable responsibility for the defeat of the army a few days ago. Since Lu Dai led the troops, he had never suffered such a defeat, and even the lord came to help in person, so his mood was difficult to calm down.
Zhou Tai and Chen Wu bowed down and pleaded guilty to Gao Cheng together.
"Get up! Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, this time Yuan Shu gathered a large army, it is to prepare for a decisive battle with our army, your troops are insufficient, it is not easy to block the opponent's attack, I know all this......" Gao Cheng said softly. Lift the three of them up.
Lu Dai's lips trembled slightly, and when he heard this, a warm current surged in his heart, and he was moved.
After Gao Cheng came to Ruyin, the army quickly settled down. Soon two days passed, and the armies of the two sides did not start a major battle in these two days, but the military spirit above the camps of the two armies became more and more intense, containing boundless ferocious aura.
Heaven and man are connected, and more than one million soldiers on both sides have a murderous aura in their chests, and when condensed, they can even trigger celestial phenomena. If a general who is proficient in the battle formation of the soldier makes a move, he can even condense this fierce military qi into a barrier to resist the enemy's large-scale spell bombardment.
......
On this day, Gao Cheng was sitting in the big tent and was dealing with various things in the army. Suddenly, I heard the sound of war drums outside. His mind moved, and he quickly got up and walked out of the big tent.
"It's the sound of the war drums of Yuan Shu's army!"
As soon as Gao Cheng walked out, he saw Zhou Cang and a person walking hurried one after the other, and Zhou Cang hurriedly reported: "Lord, the enemy army opened the camp and dispatched 10,000 cavalry!"
Gao Cheng frowned slightly, jumped forward, and came to the viewing platform not far away, from here to the distance, a heroic young man with a spear in his hand, with 10,000 cavalry rolling over.
This young man was surrounded by blood-red qi, and there was a faint shadow of a banner above the heavenly spirit, and his momentum was masculine and domineering, which made people can't help but cast their eyes on him.
"Sun Ce, Sun Bofu?"
A name flashed in Gao Cheng's heart, although he had never seen Sun Ce's appearance, but after seeing the young man in the distance, he directly judged the origin of the other party. Sun Ce was not yet twenty years old, and he had reached the peak of the Refining Gang Sevenfold Void Realm. has become a first-class general in this world.
His mind turned, Sun Ce came with 10,000 cavalry, it was definitely not to attack his own camp, 10,000 cavalry against hundreds of thousands of troops was undoubtedly to die. The other party should want to fight.
As Gao Cheng guessed, Sun Ce led the cavalry to set out first, and then Yuan Shu's camp rushed out with hundreds of thousands of troops, and Yuan Shu personally led the generals under his command to move slowly behind and press Sun Ce's formation.
