Chapter 30: No Entry and Exit (continued)
The first day of October is the first day of the last season of the sixth year of Jian'an.
And in the afternoon, the north wind Xiao Xiao gradually rose, and when he saw that the sky was gloomy and about to rain, Sun Ce and his subordinates, who fled south along Huang Ze, finally waited for Tai Shi Ci's belated pursuers at the intersection of Qinghe and Huang Ze!
It's not ridiculous at all, it's really waiting, a group of deserters are waiting hard for the pursuers.
It is said that on the way to escape south, Sun Bofu learned that the pontoon bridge guarded by Li Jin had been occupied by Tai Shici, so the two sides fell into a dilemma at the same time.
The situation at that time was that Sun Ce was on the inner side of the Qing River, and Tai Shici was on the outer side of the Qing River.
Among them, the strength and combat power of Tai Shi Ci's department are absolutely superior...... Although in order to maintain the encirclement, Taishi Ziyi divided a full 10,000 soldiers and horses along the way to guard and deploy along the river, but when he arrived at the pontoon bridge in the southern section of the encirclement, he still had more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, and he was fully mounted. Such a configuration is of course absolutely superior to Sun Cejun, who also has 10,000 soldiers, including 3,000 soldiers led by Sun Ce's confidant Dong Xi. Because Sun Cejun was extremely tired and frightened by now, and Tai Shici was here to be a hunter.
However, the battlefield is about the terrain and the time of day, and at this moment, a Qinghe River, which is famous all over the world because of the downstream Qinghe County, has become a delicate balance between the two.
Of course, Sun Ce didn't dare to cross the river, if he dared to cross, no matter where he crossed it from, Tai Shici would be able to attack half-way and easily end the battle; Correspondingly, Taishi Ziyi also has a sense that it is not easy to cross the river...... Because one thing is obvious, it may be that Sun Ce himself has outstanding prestige among the ten thousand Jiangdong disciples, so although his subordinates are tired and frightened, they are far from reaching a state of loss of discipline and combat effectiveness.
In other words, Tai Shici also needs to take into account that he was half-crossed by Sun Cejun, who was a little difficult to return to the school; and also to consider whether because he crossed the river by himself, causing Sun Cejun to take the initiative to divide his troops to cross the river and escape; It is also necessary to consider whether Sun Ce and other important figures will be allowed to abscond while in chaos; It is also necessary to consider whether Han Dang and Cheng Yu, two big men who do not need to be killed, will take away the credit......
To put it bluntly, although the difference in strength between the two sides is obvious, but when the war comes to this, Sun Ce's strategic goal is too low, and he can simply live one by one. And from Tai Shici's point of view, he needs to make a full contribution!
It's pitiful, I went to Liaodong to recruit soldiers once, and when I came back, there was nothing!
Not to mention that Zhao Yun relied on Pingliang's merits to become a general before, Zhao Zilong's personality has nothing to say in Ye, and he has a good relationship with Taishi Ziyi. The key is that even Zhang Liao's Keju overlord can save a bunch of enemy chieftains in his tent, and he will inevitably be a marquis after the war...... Is he too Shi Ci to be on the head of that kind of person?
The eldest husband was born in this world, seeing the world turned upside down, he was naturally generous in his heart, and wanted to make an immortal contribution to the three-foot sword, and by the way, he was sealed or something, how could he be left behind in a daze?
Therefore, the best and only way to solve this battle is for him to eat Sun Ce's entire army by himself, and then independently capture or kill the two famous people in this army - Dong Xi and Sun Ce!
So, under such an asymmetrical mentality, after the two sides held each other for a while, especially when the sky began to be gloomy and it was likely to rain soon, considering the problem of cavalry combat ability, Tai Shici, who finally had more leeway, chose to take the initiative to march!
His people divided his command into two, and most of the foot soldiers, about six or seven thousand people, were handed over to the deputy generals Zhu Ling and Huangfu Jianshou, and asked them to directly go to the outside of the junction of Huangze and Qinghe where Sun Cejun was stationed to set up a formation to monitor and prevent his generation from taking the opportunity to escape, while Taishi Ziyi himself took almost all the troops on horseback, about four or five thousand people, to cross the river from a pontoon bridge a little farther away, and it took a long time to complete the preparation, and then hurriedly marched towards Sun Cejun.
Unexpectedly, Sun Cejun did not move his troops throughout the whole process, neither took the initiative to attack Bandu, nor did he take the opportunity to cross the river to fight to the death with the Yan army infantry on the other side of the river, but quietly waited until the Taishi Ci Department was fully prepared and led thousands of cavalry to arrive.
The reason is simple - it's going to rain!
"It's going to rain." Sun Ce looked at the clouds above his head that were gradually thickening to the point of dripping, and let out a rare long breath. "I've known it was going to rain since yesterday, but I've finally waited for it...... Yuan Dynasty! β
Dong Xi hurriedly bowed his head and obeyed the order.
"It's up to you today." In the midst of the rumbling of the horse's hooves, Sun Ce lowered his head and spoke earnestly on the other party's arm. "Until the last resort, we can't go into Ze to hide, we don't know the road, and the troops will be the result of the collapse when they enter, and we can't get it back at all...... Now the plan is that you use 3,000 armor soldiers to try to top the opponent's cavalry, as long as the rain falls, the cavalry of the Yan army will not be so powerful, and if the rain is bigger, I can't say that we can still take advantage of the chaos to defeat the other party and leave the whole army. β
"My subordinates know." Dong Xi's eyes were red because of lack of sleep, but when he heard the words, his momentum did not decrease, and he immediately raised his voice to respond. "Didn't Tai Shi Ci also come here in a hurry because he knew it was going to rain? In order to fight for merit, they have left us a glimmer of life, and the last general will receive the great favor of the general, and he will inevitably not retreat! β
Sun Ce sighed for a moment when he heard this, but he bowed his head again and again: "That is the case, you lead the armor soldiers to defend the front army, and I will take the rest of my subordinates to defend the middle army, we must go back alive!" β
"The situation is critical, the general can go back alive!" Dong Yuandai simply answered. "The end will not be worth mentioning!"
After that, this Huiji brave general didn't wait for Sun Ce's reply, he turned around and left directly, and went to the front army to meet the enemy.
The sky was getting more and more gloomy, and it was almost dripping, and unexpectedly, Tai Shici, who had been tossing at the pontoon bridge for a long time before, once again wasted the precious cavalry window, and actually played the routine of talking before the battle.
"I have heard rumors from Ye Xia that Uncle Sun is called the little overlord of Jiangdong, and he has the courage of ten thousand people." Tai Shi Ci was in front of the horse, and he asked from afar, and the light cavalry platoon behind him was tight, and the flags were densely covered behind. "If you are not talented, you will also be praised by the Queen Mother and Yan Gong, and you may be able to compare with Xiaobawang...... I don't know if Sun Bofu has Yaxing, go to the front of the battle?! β
Tai Shici's voice is clear and his posture is heroic, and since this statement comes out of Dong Yuan, he naturally wants to send it back...... Of course, in essence, it is still procrastinating for time, although Dong Xi is a rough man, he is not a fool.
And when the guards came back, in an instant, Sun Ce really had the desire to talk to each other, and even come to the front of the battle to fight alone, anyway, his character, the king of heaven and Lao Tzu are not afraid, the key is that he can also greatly delay time, if it is really dragged until the rain is drenched, then the matter will be done.
But after thinking about it, he himself was exhausted at this time and did not mention it, the key is that the army is all supported by his own prestige, if this is lightly separated from the main formation, it will be bad for the opposing cavalry to rush around.
So, the guards turned back to the front of the formation alone, but told Dong to attack one or two slightly.
Dong Xi will understand, but he slowly got on the horse and went out of battle, and spoke for his own general: "My general is the hereditary Han lord Wucheng Marquis, the general of the Feng Po, and the right general of your lord, Zhao Gong, is in the same hall as the Han Chen...... What qualifications does a subordinate have to deal with my lord? And if you want to talk about martial arts, you will be here, and you are willing to come and learn! β
Tai Shi Ci sneered when he heard this, first looked back behind him, then looked up at the dark clouds in the sky, and didn't answer a word, and directly reined in and returned to the formation.
Seeing this, Dong Xi didn't care, he just thought that someone had reminded the other party of the rain problem, so he also reined in and returned to the battle, and then stood in the center of the front army, ordering the three thousand armor soldiers who were in the front to be vigilant for a while.
And the 3,000 Hui Ji Armor soldiers, although in the previous two days and two nights, only a little rest in the west of the Huangcheng in the early morning and around the morning of the day, they were really tired, but they still cheered up at the next moment when the general of their own country was born in their hometown, and prepared to meet the enemy.
On the other side, as far as the eye could see, after Tai Shici returned to the formation, the light cavalry behind him split into two, separating the two wings like a wave, and seemed to be preparing to attack from the flanks as expected...... However, as the light cavalry got out of the way, Tai Shi Ci walked into the military formation two hundred steps deep, Dong Yuandai and the Huiji armor soldiers in the front row only felt momentarily confused.
Because after separating the light cavalry, a cavalry team that was not strange or strange, but ordinary and absolutely unusual, actually appeared in front of him.
There are not many of them, about four or five hundred horsemen, the queue is distinct, everyone is in heavy armor with cowhide gloves, riding boots, and hideous face armor, and all the crotch is a tall horse, and then there is no bow and arrow, but the person is holding a steel spear five or six feet long!
And the spear is also a bit strange, because the spearhead of the spear is extraordinarily long and wide, more like a steel lance!
So far, although it is frightening, it is still within the scope of cognition, it is nothing more than a group of exceptionally elite armor riders, and who doesn't know the name of Ye Xia armor riders? At this time, although there is a big war ahead, it is common to leave a few hundred old people to look after the family.
For example, there were rumors before that some of the righteous servants under the command of Yan Gong who did not have much political capital before, that is, those who advanced to the rank with archers and horses, after reaching a certain age, if they were unwilling to go to the local area to be county lieutenants and the like, they could also stay and continue to participate in the garrison of Tongquetai as cavalry. But at this time, he only enjoys the treatment of righteous servants, but he can no longer occupy the establishment of three thousand righteous servants.
I think it's supposed to be these people.
And back to the present, the real problem is, or what makes Dong Yuandai and others confused, that these four or five hundred armor riders actually have a full set of horse armor for each ride!
Horse armor is not a new thing, but four or five hundred horse armor with a tall horse, a knight with heavy armor, and such a long steel spear is undoubtedly a new thing, and it is a new thing that is enough to make the legs and stomachs of all those experienced in the battlefield tremble.
And almost instantly, Sun Ce, who was also stunned when he saw this scene from afar, understood why Tai Shici, who was obviously in a hurry, was delayed at the ferry for so long, and he had to say so much nonsense at this time?
It's not that Tai Shi Ci is too frivolous, but people are taking the time to prepare this thing!
It should have been armor at the ferry before, and it should have been a formation just now!
And the left and right light horses got out of the way, Tai Shi Ci also stood in front of the horse armor horse, and as a gust of winter thunder rolled through the sky, Tai Shi Ziyi no longer hesitated, directly raised the halberd forward, and ordered to charge!
Horse armor is said to be equipped, human armor is called armor riding, and the name of these 500 horsemen should be armored riding. And the five hundred armored horses were immediately activated after the order, although the speed was extremely slow, but as the extremely deterrent mass was driven by the war horse, the horse's hooves rolled across the ground, just like winter thunder rolling across the sky!
At the same time, two thousand light horsemen, separated from the left and right, spread straight along the two wings, connected with the middle armored horse, like an iron eagle, spread their wings and swooped straight forward!
Sun Bofu, who was far behind, was dumbfounded, and Dong Yuandai, who bore the brunt of the attack, was in a hurry, and he didn't have time to pay attention to any light cavalry, so he could only follow the most basic method of defending cavalry, order the whole army to stabilize, and let the crossbowmen step forward to shoot those armored cavalry coming from front......
The bow and arrows rained down, falling into the armored cavalry formation that was rumbling and rolling less than a hundred paces away in front of them, but it had no effect! Instead, it reminded the troops...... In fact, it was only after being shot that the armored riders in the front row raised the steel lance of amazing length in their hands!
The crossbowmen were in despair, and almost all of them hurriedly retreated into battle without waiting for orders!
And the soldiers in the front row have also lost their minds at this time, because this feeling of invulnerability and sharpness is really terrifying! Not to mention the impact of this sheer quality! They can almost imagine...... Even if the armor army formation behind him really has the chance to block this kind of troops, as the front row, they are destined to be crushed by this army!
As a result, almost following the crossbowmen who had rushed into battle, before they even made contact with the opposing knights, the armorers in the front row turned around and fled, which then caused the whole army to shake.
Dong Yuandai, who was standing under the banner of the former army, was furious and immediately wanted to draw a knife to kill people and control the situation. But at this time, the Yan military armor cavalry had already rolled into the formation, and just like everyone imagined, everything in front of him was crushed in one fell swoop!
The strength of the former army collapsed in an instant!
If you have to use one word to describe the situation in front of you, it is probably invincible, right?
Not only that, Dong Xi looked around and saw that the light cavalry of the Yan army had been inserted into the gap between the armor soldiers and the Chinese army behind him in due time, and behind the armored cavalry, there were more than a thousand horse knights who were so strange that they only had a ring-headed knife followed in to clean up the battlefield.
The three cooperated, and there was no way out for the front army!
"Captain, you can't do anything, you still have horses, faster than them, quickly turn around and escape!" At this time, it was Dong Xi's personal guards who began to persuade Dong Yuandai to leave.
As a drop of rain fell on the tip of his nose, Dong Xi sighed when he heard this, but dismounted directly, and helped a frightened guard, who was also the youngest child of Yuyao in his hometown, onto the war horse, and sent the other party away with only one whip.
The rest of the guards were stunned.
"I have received the great favor of General Sun, and I am here to prepare for the enemy, how can I leave my post without permission?" Dong Xi turned around and calmly agreed. "He's the youngest, let him go!"
After that, Dong Xi didn't say anything more, but stood proudly under his own flag, drawing his sword to face the armored cavalry rolling in.
The guards of about thirty or forty people looked at each other, and some of them covered their faces and fled, but the vast majority of them drew their swords against each other like Dong Xi. As soon as the armored cavalry that came with the gallop arrived, several guards in the front position didn't know whether it was out of loyalty or to get rid of fear, so they actually roared directly and struggled to catch up.
However, to no avail, they did not have time to draw their swords and spears before they were picked up by the armoured cavalry or the horses themselves, and then reflexively knocked back into their formation.
Poor Dong Yuandai himself didn't even have time to kill a person, so he was easily smashed to the ground by his subordinates, and then crushed into pulp.
Sun Bofu watched from afar, and saw with his own eyes that the three thousand armor soldiers he was proud of were crushed to the ground by a photo, and the ten thousand troops on his side were even more frightened in an instant The whole army collapsed, but he was gloomy, and fled into Huang Ze in embarrassment in the raindrops that had just fallen - he didn't want to die yet, and he had too many reasons not to die!
In fact, in addition to the fact that Li Jin, a fool who was bent on death, could not easily let go of the path of princes, Sun Ce also had more direct and reasonable reasons...... When his father died, he became a lost dog, and now if he is also dead, the second brother Sun Quan is only fourteen years old, and the whole family is pregnant and children, wouldn't he have to be slaughtered?
In the process of unifying Wu County and Huiji, he didn't know how many blood feuds he had with many people!
His grandson Bofu is not only a prince all the way, but also the head of the family, responsible for the life and death of his family! The persuasion to return to Cao Ang that day was faintly for this, and today's embarrassment escape is even more for this!
The rain was pouring down, and Tai Shi Ci wanted to see Sun Ce's banner fall, and then thousands of people not only fled into Huang Ze in embarrassment, but also angry!
However, anger turned to anger, and Taishi Ziyi did not dare to slack off, and his people ordered the cavalry to end quickly, but on the other hand, they ordered the other side to prepare to intercept on the periphery...... At the same time, he hurried to confirm the whereabouts of Sun Ce and Dong Xi, as if he was mentally prepared to go to Ze to search for Sun Bofu in person.
However, it was destined for tomorrow.
Sun Ce also knew that it was impossible for Yan Jun to chase after him tonight, and he also knew that in this situation, it would not be good for him to have too many people around him, so after entering Huang Ze, he quickly took advantage of the heavier and heavier winter rain and his outstanding physical condition to get rid of most of the people, and then hid in a relatively hidden withered yellow reed!
And took out the dry food he carried with him in the winter rain and hurriedly replenished his strength!
It is definitely not pampered, but he has moved around with his father since he was a child, and Sun Ce, who has suffered a lot for this, knows very well that he does not know the geography of the road in Zezhong, and the sky is dark at this time, if he moves in a panic, he will only get lost in the rainy night, and he will not step into the mud pit with one foot, and he may be suffocated to death by the mud!
The only strategy is to try to save and replenish physical strength at this time, survive the night, and tomorrow during the day, after the sight has improved, then find a way to leave.
However, the winter rain was abundant, and Sun Bofu, who had barely eaten something, really relieved himself at this time, but it was impossible to sleep peacefully for a while, so he could only sit in the reeds and seriously think about the current situation.
However, it was clear that the overall situation of the Central Plains and Jiangnan after this battle had been extremely clear, but Sun Bofu couldn't think about it, because he couldn't help but think about the invincible Yan military armor and cavalry of the five hundred blockers just now.
In all fairness, Sun Ce is definitely not unfamiliar with such a thing as horse armor, because his father Sun Jian, as a very distinctive martial artist in this era, has basically traveled most of the world. From the jungle of Jingnan to the hills of Huiji, from the desert of Xiliang to the grassland of Saibei, Sun Wentai is definitely the best in the world in terms of battlefield adaptability, tactics and equipment!
This is also a fundamental reason why the Jiangdong Tigers were based in the world in the past.
Therefore, Sun Bofu did not lack the knowledge of the cavalry, but the more he understood these things, the more cold Sun Bofu was hiding in the reeds......
First of all, horse armor forging is not easy, so if you want to form such a cavalry, you must first have a large-scale forging and smelting base. This kind of base, Qingzhou has, Hedong has, Sanfu has, now it is said that Youzhou has built a very large iron official, Liaodong seems to also have a Pingguo iron official is very famous. Of course, Nanyang also has it, and it was once the best and biggest iron official in the world, and the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse.
Therefore, there is no doubt that this kind of horse armor can be forged in Hebei and the Central Plains, but not in Jiangdong, and even more so in the grassland.
Secondly, excellent war horses are also needed, and there are a large number of excellent war horses, because it is too rare to have the ability to carry horse armor and a heavily equipped heavy cavalry, and even if there is, it is extremely expensive...... This is really no problem, only Gongsun Xun and the Xianbei people on the grassland can do it, and the south of the Yellow River can't even think about it.
Finally, it's money!
You must know that such a cavalry, even if it is an excellent war horse, knight, horse armor, and human armor, is not so simple to form, it needs training, maintenance, and maintenance...... Sun Bofu knew very well in his heart that today, when these five hundred cavalry appeared in front of him, there must be more than 1,000 additional horses and soldiers and civilians behind him, who were specially responsible for carrying equipment and supplies, and he had to help these five hundred knights put on armor and hand over steel spears before the war.
Thinking of this, Sun Ce, who was wet from the rain, raised his head and sneered in the reeds, but he suddenly understood why Tai Shi Ci was so slow to encircle, and he knew more clearly what was going on with the 1,000 light infantry who only held the ring head sword today.
But after laughing, there is despair and silence.
Of course, this kind of horse armor heavy cavalry is powerful, but it is not invincible, and the formation of a good crossbow and a waist crossbow is absolutely breakable, that is, if the soldiers of the Dong Raid Department who were rushed away today can be in a better mental state, eat and drink enough, and line up with a long enough spear, the other party may not dare to really rush rashly.
As for the time and geography of rain and snow, rivers, hills, forests, camps, horse rejection, etc., which naturally limit the cavalry, as well as human factors, not to mention the human factor.
In fact, according to Sun Ce's guess, the money and food of such an armored cavalry that can be easily terminated by 500 is enough to raise 1,500 world-renowned Yexia armor cavalry, or 3,000 ordinary Jianrui light cavalry, or 4,000 elite infantry armor soldiers, and even 5,000 sword and shield light infantry or 5,000 crossbowmen......
But so what?
Could it be that the Yan army does not have elite armored cavalry, light cavalry, ordinary armor soldiers, light steps, and crossbowmen?
The Yan army has all of them, but they still have the strength to spare, so they have such a team of 500 armored cavalry that is invincible under certain conditions! And today they played the value they deserved...... At the age of eighteen, he led a remnant army to defeat the world's hero Liu Bei and won a foothold in two counties under the nose of Liu Bei, a powerful man in the world, and often won and lost each other, so that he boasted in his heart that he could run rampant with 100,000 soldiers. But today, he led probably the greatest force he could do, with 10,000 soldiers, including 3,000 armor soldiers, but he was rushed and scattered by 500 cavalry in such a face!
There is also Dong Xi, this Huiji Haojie has always looked down on Zhu's father and son as a Huiji, but after he entered the Huiji, he personally led the crowd to Gaoqian Pavilion to greet him......
For a moment, Sun Bofu suddenly wanted to cry. Only the rain kept coming, and I didn't know if I cried!
The rain continued to drip in early winter, and Sun Ce didn't know if he was too tired, but he successfully fell asleep in the rain and dreamed non-stop all night.
He dreamed that he won this battle, captured Yecheng, and got the grain, grass, money, and ordnance that the Yan army had saved for three years in one go, and then directly burned it, shaking the world. Then he took Gongsun Xun's mother, wives and concubines, children, and important ministers as hostages, forcing the Yan army, which was in turmoil, to negotiate peace with the Central Plains coalition army.
Next, the two sides slowly retreated, and he sent Dong Xun to Guandu to meet his father Cao Cao overnight, and persuaded the other party with the next argument of Gaozu and Xiang Wangyuan, tore up the contract, and directly attacked Gongsun Xun, who was unstable and had no support, on both sides, and surrounded the other party on the white horse.
And this Yan Gong was like King Xiang from Chen Wuyan to see his father in Hebei, so he killed himself on a white horse.
Immediately, Hebei was divided across the board, Gongsun Zhan was based on Sanfu, Gongsun Yue was based on Liang, Gongsun was based on Jizhou, and Gongsun Ping was based on Youzhou.
After the war, Cao Cao recovered the Central Plains, Liu Bei according to the two Huai, the two sides immediately fought again, and he sent troops from behind Liu Bei, all of them took Jiangnan and Lianghuai, forcing his uncle Liu Xuande to defect to Liu Biao in embarrassment. Then he was ready to continue to go north, attack Yafu, and become the world's hegemon, but he was besieged and killed by his second brother Sun Quan in his hometown in Wu County.
After his death, he escaped into the Yellow Spring, and when he saw his father, his father scolded him, asking why he didn't listen to his last words and forcibly raised an army? And why don't you take him as a lesson, as if he was young, he only had martial arts in his eyes, so that he acted tough and killed innocents indiscriminately?
Sun Ce was just about to answer, saying that he was just unconvinced, but suddenly he stumbled, and he was directly cold, and then immediately woke up.
It turned out that although the rain continued to stop at this time, it was already bright, and at the same time, the original reeds under Sun Bofu's feet had become reeds - a night of rain, the water surface of Daze gradually rose, and the water had risen to this!
Sun Ce had a long dream, and was drenched all night, and he was afraid that he was soaked in the middle of the night, and he also had an unbearable headache for a while, and he was quite dizzy, but he still managed to get up because he couldn't stay for a long time.
I saw that the people moved first, warmed up a little, and then forcibly swallowed all the remaining dry food in the rain, and threw down the armor and steel helmet on their bodies that were destined to affect their movements in the swamp and reveal their identities, except for a pair of exquisite and sturdy cowhide boots that were put back on after pouring out the stagnant water, plus a necessary ring knife tied to his waist, and he hurriedly left.
The rain did not stop, but the basic light and shadow were still distinguishable, Sun Ce found his bearing, hurried southwest, and prepared to cross Daze, escape from the war-free west of Huang Ze, and sneak back south.
However, Sun Bofu was not without trouble along the way.
First of all, the rain overnight, just as the reeds turned into reeds, although the road in Zezhong was visible and seemed to be feasible, it often stepped into the mud as soon as it stepped down, and had to find the way again...... When necessary, Sun Bofu even needs to swim in the cold early winter, because for him who has a good water nature, deep water is definitely safer than mud pits!
Sun Bofu knew that those mud nests that had been soaked by the overnight rain were the deadliest places in the swamp in early winter, the first kick seemed to be very safe, but the next kick directly lost the entire thigh, and it was difficult to find the way back when he pulled out.
Secondly, he had to avoid his pursuers and routs...... At first, it was just to avoid the rout, but in the morning, the Yan army, led by many local fishermen, entered Ze to search in large groups, which was much more dangerous at this time, and he knew how valuable his head was.
And it was at this time that Sun Bofu heard from the surrender words of these soldiers that the Seventh Army had indeed been wiped out!
Li Jin, Lejin, and Gao Gan died in battle;
Huang Zhong led the headquarters and the remnants of Lejin to surrender;
Zhang Chao and Cao Hong committed suicide.
Coupled with Dong Xian, who died in battle, it seems that his most valuable person has not been captured and killed, so it is no wonder that he is so moved.
However, even so, Sun Bofu continued his excellent water and physical strength, and continued to go all the way to the southwest, gradually getting rid of most of the pursuers and routs.
And in the afternoon, as the rain gradually decreased, he actually saw the land in the southwest in the distance, which surprised him even more!
However, at this time, Sun Bofu was almost exhausted, and there was no dry food to replenish. And the more tired and headaches he had, the more he got lost in the swamp, and sometimes, he even felt farther and farther away from the land over there.
But in any case, it seems to be the road of endless heaven, tired and confused, Sun Ce actually met two fishermen wearing hats, looking from a distance, one big and one small, as if they came to catch fish after the rain.
Sun Bofu, who was hiding behind the reeds, thought about it for a while, but he was happy and relieved in his heart - he was happy because there were fishermen, which meant that the land was really not far away; Dading is because this is the southwest of Huangze, although it still belongs to the Inner Huang Territory, but separated by a large swamp within a radius of 20 miles, it is destined to be unrelated to the battlefield, and the fishermen who come here to catch fish probably do not know what happened yesterday and the day before yesterday in the left side of the Inner Yellow City, so there is no need to worry.
So, the person gritted his teeth and stepped forward and shouted directly.
One big and one young two people turned around, it was an old man and a girl who was only seven or eight years old, the old man carried a fish basket, as if he was a family laborer with the army, the old man took his granddaughter while taking advantage of the slack rain to fish to improve his life.
"Uncle!" Sun Ce woke up in his heart and immediately asked. "I am a pawn of Neihuang County, and I was ordered by the county to take a boat along the Qinghe River to deliver the news to Liyang, but the rain rose on the road, and the boat ran aground in the river, and now I can't even find the road, but falls into the mud...... Which side of the front is directly ashore? β
The grandfather and grandson flinched for a while, but after all, the old man was silent for a while, and then reluctantly pointed in a direction behind him.
Sun Ce looked over, but there were still two forks in the direction of the other side, so he continued to frown and ask, and the old man continued to point out exactly one of the two forks in the road in panic.
At this moment, Sun Ce didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately rushed forward. But after only walking a few dozen steps, the person woke up in his heart - he was really drenched in the rain, his accent was so bad, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he had already exposed his feet, and the old man did not open his mouth, as if he was also aware of this, so there was no need to think about it, the road he pointed to here must be a dead end soaked in rain! Even Yan Jun said that he couldn't come later!
So he hurriedly turned back again, and with an inexplicable anger, he did not hesitate to pull out the knife, and killed the old man who was blocking his granddaughter with his arms open, and Fu raised the knife again to kill the girl...... However, looking at the girl's frightened and crying appearance, Sun Cefu, who had a splitting headache, thought of his young sister of a similar age, but he couldn't bear it after all!
Moreover, Sun Ce turned around and saw the blood and water under the corpse of the old man on the ground flowing into the muddy water, and he also remembered his father's depression because of some things back then, and his special teachings for this, the bathroom was even more ashamed, but he always felt that it was taken for granted, and he should not be so kind to a woman.
In the panic, Sun Bofu sighed, in the end, he threw down the crying girl, put away the knife and turned away, and hurriedly fled from another road.
But not long after, suddenly, there was a trumpet sound from the left, and then the faint crying of the girl behind him also stopped. Knowing that it might be the chasing soldiers coming, Sun Ce couldn't run more and more, but suddenly his feet slipped and half of his body fell into the mud!
The movement behind him is getting closer and closer...... Sun Ce, who knew that he had reached the most dangerous moment, didn't have time to think about it, he just gritted his teeth and struggled to move forward in the mud that was deep to his waist, and he was actually preparing to forcibly cross this quagmire to avoid the pursuers behind him.
But at such a speed, where can it be time? Not to mention that he only walked a few dozen steps in the mud before he almost lost his strength.
I don't know how long it was, just when Sun Bofu was dizzy and almost to the limit, a group of chasing soldiers had already chased from behind, and the person at the head was actually Tai Shici, who was covered in mud but angry.
Sun Ce looked back and thought about surrendering for a moment...... Surrender is to cut off the road of the princes, but it is the most responsible choice for the family. However, after the last strength of the people turned around in the mud, they saw that the girl in the ill-fitting robe was being held in the arms of a person dressed as a local pavilion official, but Sun Ce couldn't speak, but just silently faced each other.
Since this is the case, it should be punished! Why bother?!
In an instant, an inexplicable thought surged into Sun Bofu's heart, but it made him extremely relaxed...... Struggling in the quagmire of this troubled world, it is too tiring.
Tai Shi Ci looked coldly at Sun Ce, who stopped dozens of steps away and turned around, directly pulled out the longbow wrapped in oil paper from behind him, bent the bow and took the arrow, and shot an arrow, but only hit the other party's shoulder at such a distance!
Sun Ce snorted, but there was still no superfluous expression.
If you do this, you deserve this punishment!
Why bother thinking about it?
And soon, with the surrounding more than a dozen Yan soldiers and local pavilion officials who came with Tai Shici, they also drew their bows and arrows one after another, and fired at Sun Ce continuously, but Sun Bofu was shot alive in the mud pit of Nei Huang Ze.
He was twenty-two years old.

"Sun Ce is in Wu, Qin Song is the guest, worship is the mastermind, it is to gather civil and military, and discuss the four seas and the Tai, and it must be ruled by force. When Lu Ji of Wu County sat at the end of his youth, Yao said loudly: "In the past, Guan Yiwu was Qi Huangong, Jiuhe Zhuhou, one Kuang world, no military vehicles. Confucius said: "If people from afar are not satisfied, they will cultivate virtue and virtue." 'The present commentator does not practice the art of moral acquisition, but only the martial arts, and the performance is uneasy. 'Strategy, smiled and asked left and right, Song said: "This Lu family knows that the general will be military first, and the general will not kill the boy who sits on the taboo, so he is good at talking nonsense." 'Strategy, revenge, and laughter, is to achieve land by land, and the sword and soldiers are not stopped. βThe Book of Old Swallows. Volume sixty-three. Biography XIII
"At the end of the Han Dynasty, and Sun Ce died, Emperor Ren was in front of the army, and when he heard about Guandu, he sighed: 'In terms of grandmother, Sun Ce is a little overlord, how can he die in the quagmire.' Zhuge Liang was sixteen years old, never said much, and when he heard it, he was solemn and solemn: "In the past, there was always a strong crowd, cross-state and land, and the people who served were big, but they were defeated and died in Dongcheng, and the clan was burning, and they laughed for thousands of years, and they were not righteous, and the people of the tomb were abused. However, the overlord still does not kill Tian's father, and he is called a little overlord, and his father kills his son in the throne, and his son kills his ancestors in a desperate way, and now he dies in the mud, isn't it worthy of his name? Emperor Ren withdrew from the table to thank him. β"The World Speaks New Words". Proverbs
