Chapter 173: The Sky Is Falling

Sun Ce was stunned and didn't react for a long time.

"I'll go, the sky is going to fall now."

The only son Yuan Yao is gone, and it's strange that Yuan Shu is not crazy. He only chased after him with the personal guard battalion, even if Cao Cao did not ambush him, it would be a matter of minutes to destroy him. Is there any common sense about this goods, this is a marching battle, not that you are blocking the streets of Luoyang and robbing, just bring a few dog legs.

This can't be Cao Cao's calculation, right? If so, then Cao Cao is too insidious.

For a while, Sun Ce thought a lot. Zhou Yu tugged at his sleeve and whispered, "Bo Fu, this day is really going to collapse." ”

"Isn't it?" Sun Ce muttered and followed, and suddenly realized that Zhou Yu had something to say. "Gong Jin, what exactly do you want to say?"

Zhou Yu looked at him and didn't speak. Sun Ce's mind was agitated, and he suddenly understood what Zhou Yu meant. But isn't it, if Yuan Shu dies, the sky covering his head will fall, and from then on, except for his father Sun Jian, no one can suppress him.

"What did you say?" The marching couch suddenly rang, and Huang Yueying yawned and sat up.

Zhou Yu turned his back to the marching couch, and he didn't notice that there were people on the marching couch, and when he heard the sound, he realized that something was wrong, and the expression on his face became extremely exciting. Without waiting for Sun Ce to answer, he rushed out with an arrow step, moving like a rabbit, and even Sun Ce didn't react.

Sun Ce was about to turn around and leave the account, when Huang Yueying suddenly shouted: "Alas! But he forgot that his arm had been broken, and when he touched the wound, it hurt so much that tears poured out at once. Sun Ce hurriedly turned back, half-knelt on the marching couch, and held Huang Yueying's arm.

"What's wrong, doesn't it hurt?"

Huang Yueying was in tears, looking at Sun Ce's concerned eyes, and couldn't help laughing. She rolled her eyes, and was about to speak, when she suddenly remembered something, turned over and fell on the floor, and pulled the quilt over her head. Sun Ce didn't know what he meant, and was about to ask, Huang Yueying lifted the quilt again, sat up, glanced at another marching couch not far away, looked down at his clothes, breathed a sigh of relief, turned over and got out of bed, put on his shoes, hurriedly walked out, and ran away. By the time Sun Ce chased her out of the tent, she had already run away and couldn't even see her shadow.

Sun Ce was inexplicable, and Zhou Yu couldn't help but laugh when he looked at him.

"I thought you ......"

"What do you think I am?" Sun Ce reached out and wrapped his arms around Zhou Yu's neck and dragged him into the tent. "In front of you, I'm so unbearable?"

Zhou Yu was embarrassed and reached out to hold Sun Ce. "Seriously, what are you going to do?"

Sun Ce also put away his smile, sat on another marching couch, and muttered for a long time. This is indeed the best opportunity, fake Cao Cao's hand, and it was sent by Yuan Shu himself, and it has nothing to do with him at all. But the problem is that if Yuan Shu dies, with the strength of him and Zhou Yu, I am afraid that he will not be able to control so many people, and as soon as Wancheng has fallen, many of Yuan Shu's subordinates have no impression of him, and it is not easy to suddenly ask them to be loyal to him.

There are still those heroes in Wancheng, can they accept him? It's impossible to think about.

If these relationships are not settled, Nanyang must be in chaos, where is there still the energy to deal with Xu Rong, Niu Fu and other Xiliang soldiers. Once the news reached Jia Xu's ears, it would be strange if he didn't take advantage of it.

"What do you suggest?" Sun Ce thought about it for a long time, but still felt that it was not easy, so he turned to Zhou Yu to ask for advice.

"Yuan Yao's life and death are unknown, and the life and death of the Hou General are unpredictable, and Master Yan sent someone to find us because he knew that everyone else was not enough to rely on. If you want to control the current situation, or even rescue the Hou General, you and I must take action. Bo Fu, this is an opportunity, a good opportunity to clean up people's hearts. ”

"You mean to say...... To save the general? ”

"Yes, no matter whether you can be rescued or not, you can at least gain the trust of Master Yan, Yang Changshi and others. Also, the queen general has two daughters, one daughter is already married, and one daughter is to be married, if ......"

Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu and suddenly felt a chill. He knew that Zhou Yu was right, and took the initiative to save Yuan Shu, but he didn't go all out, and when Yuan Shu died in the hands of Cao Cao, he married Yuan Shu's youngest daughter and received Yuan Shu's inheritance. From the strategist's point of view, it was a perfect plan, but he felt that there was always something missing, but he couldn't say what it was.

"Well, just do as you want. I'll go now. Sun Ce stood up.

"Then I'll go into the city and arrange someone with Yan Changshi to pick you up." Zhou Yu also stood up, glanced at Sun Ce deeply, bowed his hand, and left in a hurry.

Sun Ce turned to watch Zhou Yu leave, reached out to get the armor hanging on the side, and held it in his hand, but he hesitated. He thought for a while, walked out of the big tent, and ordered, "Shiyuan, help me wear armor." Beidou, immediately gather righteous servants and prepare to go. The mountain people, beat the drums, and invite the three captains to come and discuss the matter. ”

Pang Tong and the others agreed in unison and acted immediately. By the time Sun Ce put on his battle armor, the three hundred righteous servants had already assembled and were ready to go. Huang Zhong, Deng Zhan and Dong Yu also rushed over one after another. Sun Ce was just about to speak, and Qin Mu also rushed over. His face was tired, his eyes were dark, but he stood straight. Seeing him, Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he had an extra lieutenant under his account.

"The situation is urgent, I'll make a long story short. Later, the general chased Cao Cao, which might be in danger, and Master Yan asked me to pick him up. I will take the righteousness first, and you will come later. Qin Mu, you stay in the camp, don't act rashly, your uncle will give you orders at that time. ”

"Whoa." Qin Mu bowed his hand, and then said in a snort: "General, can I make a request?" ”

Sun Ce frowned. "Say."

"I can lead the guards to follow the general. Most of my guards are from Beidi, Longxi, and some Qianghu, and they are all good at riding and shooting, so they may be able to help. ”

Sun Ce looked at Qin Mu, Qin Mu's eyes dodged for a moment, and then he resolutely greeted Sun Ce. Sun Ce raised his eyebrows. He understood what Qin Mu meant. Qin Mu didn't believe that he would go all out, and wanted to take his personal guard to ride with him, both to help him and to monitor him.

Yuan Shu didn't want to arrange him by my side purely to give Yan Xiang face.

"Okay, go get ready."

"Whoa!" Qin Mu replied loudly, turned around and ordered a personal guard. The guard nodded and walked away quickly.

Sun Ce arranged the orders of Huang Zhong and others, and left the camp with three hundred righteousness. Qin Mu's two hundred guards were already waiting. Not only did they all have horses, but they also had fifty or sixty horses to spare. Sun Ce's eyes shrank. During this time, he relied on robbing with Yuan Shu, and he also accumulated more than 200 horses, but he couldn't do that everyone had horses, Qin Mu actually had more than 200 war horses, and his strength was very strong.

As soon as Sun Ce was about to speak, Qin Mu said: "General, most of these horses were brought by me from Guanzhong, and some of them were just captured, and they were given to the general as a greeting gift, and I hope the general will accept it with a smile." ”

Sun Ce nodded and ordered those who did not have mounts to take their horses and walk.

Five hundred horsemen rushed out of the camp and galloped north.
