Huang Zujun's strong bow and crossbow and Mong warships blocked the river, and Han Xuan's army was hindered from attacking. Han Xuan finally led the army to meet Lu Su, in the face of this dilemma, Han Xuan and Lu Su and others discussed, Han Xuan ordered the generals Zhou Tai and Han Dang to lead a hundred death squads, wearing two layers of armor, to rush to the side of Huang Zujun's Mengchong ship by fast boat and cut the rope of the chain warship.

Zhou Tai and Han Dang moved forward bravely, and it was difficult for Huang Zujun on the top of the cliff to inflict damage on the death squad wearing two layers of armor, and only the stones that fell could cause them casualties. Zhou Tai and the others finally approached Huang Zujun's Mong that blocked the mouth of the river, Zhou Tai pulled out his bright sword and cut the brown rope with a single sword, Huang Zujun's battleship drifted down the river, and Han Xuanjun went against the current.

Han Xuandulou was behind the boat, commanding the navy to kill it, and the momentum was magnificent. When Huang Zu saw Han Xuan's soldiers coming, he hurriedly sent Chen Shi, the governor of the naval army, to lead his troops to counterattack. Chen led several fighting ships to rush into Han Xuan's fleet, and the two armies exchanged bows and arrows, and the battle was very fierce.

Lü Meng commanded the forward troops, took the lead in the battle, and was surrounded by Chen's fleet. Sun Quan sent Zhu Zhi to the rescue, Han Xuan was to avenge him, and now that Huang Zu was in front, how could he not try his best to help Han Xuan?

Zhu Zhi commanded Mong to rush into several of Chen Zhi's fighting ships, and the soldiers on Zhu Zhi's ship took turns shooting arrows, and finally rescued Lu Meng's ship. At this time, Chen personally supervised the pursuit of the warship, and Chen asked the soldiers to set up a giant crossbow and aim at Zhu Zhi, who was commanding the battle on the ship, but Zhu Zhi was defenseless and was killed by an arrow.

When Lü Meng saw Chen Jie's big ship chasing after him, he asked his subordinates to pull the boat over, and Chen Jie's great anger had just been released, and he didn't have time to catch the arrow. Lü Meng's boat crashed into it, and Lü Meng jumped on the boat first, wielding his twin knives and slashing four or five enemy soldiers.

The soldiers under Lu Meng's command were also very brave, all of them were one against two, Chen saw that Lu Meng was brave, so he had to let his subordinates desperately block it. Seeing that he was so cowardly, Chen's subordinates did not dare to step forward, and Lu Meng took advantage of the situation to lead his troops to rush over.

The soldiers around Chen Zhi fled one after another, and Lu Meng turned the double knives in his hand over and killed Chen with a round. Chen stood up to the sword and blocked, and fought with Lu Meng for five or six times, but he couldn't withstand Lu Meng's attack. Lu Meng kicked Chen Cheng away, chased after him and killed Chen Cheng with another knife.

Lü Meng put up the banner of Han Xuanjun's army on Chen Qi's ship, and Huang Zujun's command was chaotic and was defeated by Han Xuan's army. Han Xuan's army took advantage of the victory and advanced by land and water to besiege Xiakou City. Han Xuan personally supervised the onslaught, and the siege army of Huang Daozhou was already on standby, and the three-bow bed crossbow and catapults, rushing carts, and cloud ladders were used one after another.

There was a river of blood on Xiakou City, and Sun Quan also asked Sun Jing and Han Dang to step up their offensive and finally conquer Xiakou City. Sun Quan begged Han Xuan: "Please give the right general an order to chase Huang Zu, Quan is grateful." ”

Han Xuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Zhongmou, I won't let Huang Zu escape." I have already ordered Huang Ergou to make two wooden boxes to hold the heads of Huang Zu and Su Fei. ”

Sun Quan thanked him, and Han Xuanchao said to the herald beside him: "Order the whole army, behead Huang Zu's head Feng Zhonglang General, reward 100,000 yuan." ”

Xiakou City was broken, Huang Zu abandoned the city and fled alone, Han Xuanjun searched everywhere, and was finally caught up by a cavalry. Huang Zu was in a hurry to escape, but was shot in the back by an arrow from this horseman, and Huang Zu fell off his horse with an arrow. The horseman rode up to him, and Huang Zu begged for mercy: "Strong man spare his life, I am willing to give you all my property." ”

The horseman smiled and said: "The right general has a heavy reward for Huang Zu's head, and today I will take your head back to ask for credit!" ”

After speaking, he took out his saber and cut off Huang Zu's head, drove the horse back to the city, and presented Huang Zu's head: "The villain Feng Ze has chased Huang Zu and dedicated his head and lord." ”

Han Xuan smiled at Sun Quan and said, "Zhongmou, this person is brave, hahaha." Today, I will give you the head of Huang Zu, and you will take it back to Wu County to pay tribute to General Sun Wentai. ”

Sun Quan bowed his hand and said, "General Xie." ”

Han Xuan saw that Feng Ze was still kneeling there, and said, "Pass on my order, and Feng Ze will be the general of the Broken Prisoner." Belch...... There is not much money in the army for the time being, so it is better to advance it for the general, how about it? ”

Sun Quan couldn't help but scold in his heart, Han Xuan, you are really shameless! My Sun Quan spent the blood of the boss to crusade against Huang Zu with you, first he loved to kill Pan Zhang, and then Zhu Zhi died in battle. Now that you ask me to help you pay, my Sun Quan has not obtained anything except Huang Zu's head in this battle, which is a blood loss.

Han Xuan had already sent Tai Shici and Xu Sheng to attack Xiling City before the large-scale attack on Huang Zu's army. Su Fei and Huang Zu's eldest son, Huang Shu, struggled to resist, and finally broke through the city because they were outnumbered.

Han Xuan won a complete victory in this battle, annihilated Huang Zu in one fell swoop, and occupied the Jiangxia region. After the battle, the generals waited quietly for the reward on their faces, Han Xuan looked at the crowd, and his eyes fell on Lu Meng's body: "This battle can be won because of the defeat of Chen Yu first." Who killed Chen Qi and broke the morale of Huang Zujun? ”

The generals shouted in unison: "Lu Meng! Lu Meng! ”

Han Xuan nodded at Lu Meng and said, "Lu Meng, I will order you to be the general of Yokono Zhonglang today, and lead Danyang Taishou." In office, do not forget the entrustment of the past. ”

Lu Meng stepped forward to listen to Feng, he knew that what Han Xuan said was to let him read more. Sun Quan's eyes on the side were full of loneliness, now his father's revenge has been avenged, but he has lost his troops and will never be able to recapture Jiangdong. Sun Quan sighed in his heart, Father, father, the child is incompetent and has failed to inherit your ambition.

After Tai Shici occupied Xiling, he escorted Huang Zu's family and Huang Jie, Su Fei and others to see Han Xuan, Su Fei heard that Han Xuan was going to kill him, and asked someone to ask Gan Ning for help.

Gan Ning said: "Even if Su Fei doesn't ask for it, will I, Gan Ning, forget his past kindness?" ”

Han Xuan held a banquet to celebrate the generals. Gan Ning stepped down from his seat and kowtowed to Han Xuan, exchanged blood and tears, and told Han Xuan that Su Fei had sympathized with him in the past under Liu Biao's account, and Su Fei had helped Gan Ning several times. Gan Ning said again: "If I, Gan Ning, hadn't met Su Fei, I would have already died and filled the ravine, and now I can't serve the lord loyally." Now that Su Fei should be killed, I take the liberty of pleading with the lord to save him from death. ”

Han Xuan saw that Gan Ning was so righteous, and he also remembered him and Chen Wu, and now Chen Wu went to find Cai Wenji, and he didn't know what was going on. Han Xuan's heart was empty, Chen Wu was gone, and Han Xuan also lacked a right-hand man, and it was so difficult to deal with Huang Zu.

Han Xuan said to Gan Ning: "I can let Su Fei go, but before I let Su Fei go, he went back to help Huang Zu resist me." Now that he is released again, I am afraid that he will go back to Liu Biao. Xingba, I can also be very difficult. ”

Gan Ning clenched his fists and said: "If Su Fei is spared death, he will receive the grace of the lord's rebirth, even if the lord drives him away, he will not leave, how can there be any reason to escape!" If Su Fei escapes, I would rather sacrifice my own head to replace his head and put it in the box! ”

Han Xuan agreed to Gan Ning's request and pardoned Su Fei. Su Fei thanked Han Xuan, and Han Xuan made him an official of Hengjiang Captain and let him serve under Gan Ning.

Huang Xuan refused to surrender, but he was tougher than his father Huang Zu, so Han Xuan had no choice but to fulfill him and order someone to behead him. Han Xuan remarried Huang Zu's concubines to the soldiers in the army, so that they could contribute to population growth, and now that Jiangnan is vast and sparsely populated, Han Xuan must develop the population if he wants to develop Jiangnan.

Xuchang, Dong Cheng since Liu Bei left, discussed with Wang Shuo and others day and night, but there was nothing to do. On the New Year's Day of the fifth year of Jian'an, Dong Cheng saw that Cao Cao's arrogance was getting worse and worse, and he became indignant. Liu Xie, the son of heaven, knew that his uncle was sick and ordered him to go with the imperial doctor for treatment. This doctor was a native of Luoyang, named Ji Ping, and was also a famous doctor at that time. Ji Ping went to Dong Cheng's Mansion to take medicine for treatment, day and night, he often saw Dong Cheng's long sigh and did not dare to ask.

Later, one night, Dong Cheng said in his dream: "Cao thief is leaving!" ”

Dong Cheng woke up in shock, and Ji Ping asked, "Do you want to harm Cao Gong?" ”

Dong Cheng didn't dare to answer. Ji Ping said: "Uncle Guo is panicking. Although a certain doctor has not forgotten the Han. Seeing Uncle Guo sigh for a few days, he didn't dare to ask. Just the words in the dream, I have seen the truth, fortunately don't hide it. If there is a certain use, even if the nine clans are destroyed, there will be no regrets! ”

Dong Chengnai then took out the edict of the clothes belt, let Ji Ping see it, and said: "The one who can't succeed today is that Liu Bei was broken by Cao Cao, and there was nothing to be done, so he became ill. ”

Jiping said: "Don't dissipate the public's intentions. The life of the thief is only in the hands of a certain person. ”

Dong Cheng asked Ji Ping, and Ji Ping said: "Cao thieves often suffer from head wind, and the pain enters the bone marrow. Now Dian Wei is looking for Hua Tuo, and only I can heal him. If there is a summoning sooner or later, with only one dose of poison, the thief will inevitably die, so why raise a sword? ”

Dong Cheng said: "If this is the case, those who save the society of the Han Dynasty will depend on Junye!" ”
