At that time, Sun Ce led his troops to the west to conquer Huangzu, and was walking to Shicheng (now west of Guichi County, Anhui), and heard that Liu Xun had arrived at Haidu, so he immediately asked Sun Ben and Sun Fu to lead men and horses to station in Pengze, preparing to stop Liu Xun, and he and Zhou Yu led 20,000 troops to attack Liu Xun's base camp Wancheng, breaking through in one fell swoop, and capturing more than 30,000 people. Therefore, Li Shu was appointed as the Taishou of Lujiang, and 3,000 men and horses were allocated to him to guard the city of Anhui, and the rest of the people were all moved to Wudi.

Liu Xun was shocked when he heard the news, returned to Peng Ze in the starry night, Sun Ben and Sun Fu sent troops to intercept and kill, Liu Xun was defeated, fled to Liuyi (now Echeng, Hubei), and asked Huang Zu for help. Huang Zu sent his son Huang Shot to lead a naval army of 5,000 people to help, Sun Ce waved his army to attack, Liu Xun was defeated and fled, defected to Cao Cao, and Huang Shot also fled.

Sun Ce also received more than 2,000 soldiers and more than 1,000 warships from Liu Xun. So, take advantage of the victory to attack Huang Zu.

At this time, a military Cao took advantage of the chaos to sexually assault the Bai clan who was with Sun Ce, and then feared that the Bai clan would report to Sun Ce and kill the Bai clan. ”

…… ……

On December 8, the fourth year of Jian'an (199), Sun Ce entered Shaxian (now north of Jiayu County, Hubei).

Liu Biao sent his nephew Liu Hu and Han Na, a native of Nanyang, to lead a spear team of 5,000 people to support Huang Zu.

On the 11th, Sun Ce led Zhou Yu, Lu Fan, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Sun Quan and other generals to advance at the same time, and Huang Zu's army was defeated, Huang Zu was almost annihilated, Han sighed in battle, Huang Zu fled alone, the soldiers drowned 10,000 people, Sun Ce captured 6,000 ships.

Sun Ce said in his recital to the imperial court: "The ministers straddle the horse formation, and beat the drum with their hands to fight together. The officials were excited, and they were a hundred times more enthusiastic. The heart is full of fruit, and each competes for his life. Crossing the heavy trench, fast as flying. The fire flies to the wind, the soldiers smoke fiercely, the bows and crossbows are fired in unison, and the arrows are rained. It's thrilling."

It can be seen that the battle is fierce.

…… ……

In the fifth year of Jian'an (200 years), Sun Ce defeated Huang Zu and marched east to Yuzhang, garrisoning Jiaoqiu (north of Xinjian County, Jiangxi), and said to Yu Xuan: "Huaxin (xī

Famous, but by no means my opponent. If you don't join it early, it will be inevitable that the golden drum will shake in the future, the battle situation will begin, and the lives will be ruined. Go into the city, and tell him what I mean. ”

Yu turned the order into the city, saw Yuzhang was too guarded by Huaxin, Chen Ming's interests and disadvantages, and Huaxin surrendered the city.

Sun Ce separated a part of Yuzhang County and established Luling County, appointing Sun Ben as the Taishou of Yuzhang, Sun Fu as the Taishou of Luling, and Zhou Yu as the protector of Baqiu. Tai Shici was sent as the lieutenant of Jianchang to govern Haiyu, and supervised the generals to reject Liu Pan, so that Liu Pan did not dare to intrude.

Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong and appointed Wu Jing as the Taishou of Danyang, Zhu Zhi as the Taishou of Wujun, Zhou Yu as the Taishou of Jiangxia and concurrently served as the Central Protector, Lü Fan as the Taishou of Guiyang, Cheng Pu as the Taishou of Lingling, Sun Ben as the Taishou of Yuzhang, Sun Fu as the Taishou of Luling, and himself as the Taishou of Huiji, with Yu Chuan as Gongcao, and with Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong(hó

g), Qin Song, Chen Duan, etc. are strategists, and there are many generals such as Tai Shici, Sun He, Xu Kun, Xu Yi, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Song Qian, He Qi, Dong Xi, Zhou Tai, Ling Cao, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, Quan Rou, Deng Dang, Lu Meng and others.

When Cao Cao heard that Sun Ce had pacified Jiangdong, he sighed and said, "It is difficult to compete with the people!" (You can't compete with the little mad dog)"

So, he married his brother's daughter to Sun Ce's younger brother Sun Kuang, and let his third son Cao Zhang marry Sun Ben's daughter. ordered Yangzhou Assassin Shi Yanxiang to promote Sun Quan as Maocai, and issued a conscription order for Sun Ce's younger brothers Sun Quan and Sun Yi to go to Xudu, hoping to win over and contain Sun Ce's forces.

…… ……

Sun Ce is handsome, cheerful, straightforward, generous, good at listening to the opinions of his subordinates, very good at employing people, talking and making jokes, and has a sense of humor, so he has won the support of scholars and the people, and the people are willing to serve him.

Guangling Taishou Chen Deng is the son of Chen Yu's cousin, when Sun Ce went west to conquer Liu Xun and Huang Zu, Chen Deng once again secretly sent a spy messenger to give the seal ribbon to the remnants of Yan Baihu, and conspired against Sun Ce, in order to avenge Chen Yu's defeat by Sun Ce's general Lü Fan.

At this time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu captured Anhui City, and the two daughters of Duke Deqiao (Qiao), Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, Sun Cena Da Qiao, and Zhou Yu Na Xiao Qiao.

Da Qiao lived with the army for a period of time, and when she was pregnant, she was sent to her mother's residence by Sun Ce. By this time, the family had moved to Kure County.

…… ……

Sun Ce likes to travel alone and is unguarded.

At that time, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were confronting, and when they heard that Sun Ce was preparing to cross the river north to attack Xudu, Cao Cao's soldiers were very frightened, but Cao Cao's adviser Guo Jia said: "Sun Ce has just annexed Jiangdong, and all he killed are heroes and heroes, and he is a person who can make people serve death." But Sun Ce is a rash and unguarded person, although he has millions of people, it is no different from him coming to the Central Plains alone. If an Assassin were to ambush him, he would be a one-man enemy. In my opinion, Sun Ce must have died at the hands of the Assassins. ”

Later, it turned out to be as Guo Jia expected.

…… ……

In April of the fifth year of Jian'an (200), Sun Ce was assassinated while hunting in Dantu Mountain and suffered an arrow wound to his face.

After Sun Ce was hit by an arrow, the pain was very severe, and he knew that he would die soon, so he invited Zhang Zhao and others to entrust the future.

He said: "The Central Plains is in turmoil, and with our soldiers of Wu and Yue, and the danger of Sanjiang, it is enough to watch the success or failure of its tiger fight." You are a good helper to my brother! Don't go back to the north. ”

"The Biography of Zhang Zhao" records that Sun Ce was worried that Sun Quan would not be competent, so he entrusted Sun Quan to Zhang Zhao, and instructed Zhang Zhao to say: "If Sun Quan is not competent, please take his place." If you can't take on the heavy responsibility of defeating the enemy and defending Jiangdong no matter what, sir, you can return to Jiangbei slowly without worrying about it. ”

Zhang Zhao and others wanted the third brother Sun Yi to inherit the throne, but Sun Ce called Sun Quan and personally matched him with a seal, saying: "Lead the Jiangdong soldiers, between the two battles, rampant competition for the world, you are not as good as me; But I am not as good as you. ”

He died of serious injuries on the night of the same day (April 4) at the age of 26.

When Sun Ce died, he left behind his original wife, Zhang Xun's daughter Zhang Yao (yáo), Tai Shici's sister, and Da Qiao, who had recently conquered Anhui City.

…… ……

Sun Quan couldn't stop crying, Zhang Zhao persuaded Sun Quan, helped Sun Quan to inspect the army, and sent the news of Sun Quan's succession to the Han room and conveyed it to his subordinates.

"Sou Shen Ji" said that Sun Ce died because of Yu Ji: Sun Ce killed a monk named Yu Ji, and after that, every time he sat alone, he felt that Yu Ji seemed to be left and right, and his heart was annoyed. This time, the treatment of arrow wounds has just improved, and he took a self-portrait in the mirror, and saw Yu Ji standing in the mirror, looking back, he didn't see Yu Ji, and so on again and again. Sun Ce broke through the mirror, roared hard, and his wound burst and died.

…… ……

Sun Quan claimed that the emperor posthumously called Sun Ce the king of Changsha Huan, and built a temple for Sun Ce in the south of Jianye Zhuque Bridge, and his son and grandson Shao were named the Marquis of Shangyu.

Chen Shou commented after the biography that Sun Ce was the founder, but his descendants were not named kings, and Sun Quan was righteous and thrifty.

In fact, this is a manifestation of Chen Shou's ignorance of Eastern Wu, Sun Quan regarded modesty as a virtue, so he was reluctant to use the old system of the Han Dynasty to over-praise the imperial family, and even rejected the suggestion that the ministers should appoint their sons and sons as kings many times, which is clearly mentioned in the Shangshu Servant and Hu Zong's upper book.

Sun Sheng also held different opinions from the perspective of the overall situation of the country, at that time, the situation in the world had not yet been unified, and it was appropriate to correct the name and determine the noble and low, and it was not appropriate to give Sun Ce's son a higher power and title to create an opportunity for civil strife, this was a necessary act to stabilize the situation, and Sun Quan had already established Sun Cezong's temple in Jianye, so he should not deliberately be stingy with giving status, which was obviously a necessary way to stabilize the situation in the country.
