Jiangdong, Danyang County, Jing County.

The rebellious general Sun Ce had just swept away a group of thieves, and was checking the topographic map to prepare for the next battle, when the guards came to report: Song Chao, the captain of the colonel, asked to see him.

Sun Ce immediately put down the map and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, please come." ”

Soon, Song Chao, who was dressed in military uniform, walked in quickly, Sun Ce got up to greet him, and said with a smile: "Uncle, please take a seat." ”

Song Chao saluted respectfully and said, "In front of the general, how dare your subordinates sit down." ”

Sun Ce laughed: "You and I are like brothers, how can you be up and down, please sit down." ”

After that, he didn't wait for Song Chaofen to say it, so he pulled him to sit down.

After the two sat down, Sun Ce asked, "I don't know what happened to Uncle Qi?" ”

Song Chao showed anxiety and grief on his face, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that the general was harmed by the villain, and Song Chao wants to go to Jiangbei to investigate. ”

Sun Ce sighed, and there was sadness on his face: "The general is talented and martial, and the heroes of the world don't want to die at the hands of villains, which really makes Ce's heart ache!" ”

During the crusade against Yuan Shu in July, Sun Ce ignored the rebellion of Wu County and Danyang behind him, and sent troops to Jiangbei to help Zhang Liao contain Liu Xun, the Taishou of Lujiang, but soon after hearing the news of Yuan Shu's defeat in Yuzhou, seeing that the general situation had been decided, Sun Ce thought of Wu County and Danyang, so under the persuasion of Sun Quan and the ministers, he wrote a letter to Zhang Liao, explaining the reason, and led the troops back to Jiangdong to quell the rebellion.

I didn't want to hear the news that Zhang Liao was ambushed and killed by a villain a few days ago yesterday, he didn't believe it at first, and sent someone to Jiangbei to investigate, and finally confirmed that the news was true.

At this time, I heard that Song Chao was going to Jiangbei to investigate, and immediately said: "The general also has a great favor to me, so I should go to Jiangbei with my uncle." ”

Song Chao was grateful in his heart, and hurriedly dissuaded: "The Jiangdong rebellion has not been settled, how can the general leave?" If the general sees harm, it is useless for the general to go, if he is still there, all the armies in Jiangbei will move, and Song Chao will be enough! Song Chao remembered the righteousness of the general, and the general also knew that he wanted to take care of the overall situation of Jiangdong and not fall short. ”

Sun Ce frowned, now the situation in Jiangdong really made him unable to leave, he pondered for a moment, he could only sigh, and hugged his fists and saluted deeply: "If Uncle Qi sees the general, send the message back quickly, I will go to see you in person!" ”

Song Chao nodded.

Later, Sun Ce and Zhang Hong sent Song Chaoji's 800 soldiers and horses to the riverside and arranged for boats to cross the river.

Not long after Song Chao left, Sun Quan and Changshi Zhang Zhao hurried over.

Zhang Zhao hurriedly said: "General, Song Chao is a good general, he must be the first in every battle, and he is strict in governing the army, and he has the style of Zhou Yafu, why let him go?" ”

Sun Ce sighed: "When the general sees harm, my uncle gets up to find the old master, which is a loyal and righteous act, how can I stop it and make it unjust?" ”

Zhang Zhao paused and said: "Since he went to find Zhang Liao, I am afraid that it will be difficult for him to return, and if the general and others break their arms, it will take a lot of trouble to pacify Jiangdong." ”

Sun Ce said: "The general was harmed by the villain, and I was also sad, but it was difficult to get out, so my uncle went to Jiangbei to investigate, and I also fulfilled my wish." ”

Sun Quan said suddenly: "Brother, a few days ago, the imperial court once passed the news that Zhaozhou County has been removed from the post of General Zhang Liao......

"Not bad." Zhang Zhao said loudly: "The general serves the imperial court, not Zhang Liao, and now the imperial court has removed Zhang Liao from his post, there must be a reason, and the general should also act cautiously, so as not to be slandered by others." ”

Sun Ce looked displeased, he was a smart man, and he knew that the original intention of the two was to keep Song Chao, so he immediately said categorically: "The husband is in the world, and he should repay his kindness, and the general is kind to me, how can I forget it!" Song Chao's matter has been decided, don't persuade again! ”

Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao glanced at each other and could only sigh secretly.

Sun Quan said again: "Brother, the rebellion has not been settled, Chen Yu is still here, it is imperative for the elder brother to set Jiangdong first and punish Chen Yu." ”

"Not bad." As soon as Sun Ce heard Chen Yu's name, he revealed his killing intent: "Kill Chen Yu!" ”

……

Jiangbei, Lujiang County, Tongyun is low, and the sky is still drizzling.

Outside Shu County, there was a slaughter, tens of thousands of people knelt on the ground outside the city, or trembling, or crying in despair, or kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Around them, there were tens of thousands of soldiers standing silently, and the blades were cold.

Not far away, there is a Beijing Temple, and countless heads are piled up.

On the ground, blood and rain trickled and stained the land.

A few days ago, the general Zhang Liao was ambushed in the area of Shu County and was killed.

The first one to go crazy was Xu Chu, who had just rescued Zhang Jian.

After Xu Chu learned the news, he was furious, and immediately slaughtered all the 5,000 thieves captured during the rescue of Zhang Jian, and then led 7,000 horsemen to charge westward, sweeping Chaohu Lake.

Under the report of the traitor, Zhang Liao's news has long been leaked, most of the thieves in Chaohu are concentrated in Feixi Road, Xu Chu killed all the way crazy, the corpses were almost piled up on the road, more than 30,000 beheadings, the entire Chaohu Lake was shocked, all the bandits fled from this area frantically, the nest of thieves in Chaohu Lake was empty, and there were no bandits for more than ten years.

At the same time, Huang Zhong and Zang Ba, who had just broken through Shouchun by land and water, also received the news, and the two were shocked and angry, and immediately led their troops south, going straight to Lujiang, and all the bandits and rebels they encountered along the way were also killed.

The whole Jiangbei is bloody!

Those families who were plotting against Zhang Liao behind the scenes were frightened and panicked, but the second unlucky one was not them, but Liu Xun, the Taishou of Lujiang.

The news of Liu Xun's participation in the ambush of Zhang Liao was discovered by Yang Han, and after Xu Chu, Huang Zhong and Zang Ba learned about it, the three soldiers immediately joined forces to besiege Liu Xun.

At that time, Liu Xun was not in Shu County, the seat of Lujiang County, but at the junction of Jiujiang County and Lujiang County, near Chaohu Lake.

Liu Xun had just kidnapped Yuan Shu's family, and before he had time to withdraw to Shu County, he was besieged by Huang Zhong, Zang Ba and Xu Chu.

Huang Zhong, Zang Ba, Xu Chu, no matter which one of them is a first-class fierce general in the world, not to mention that the soldiers under his command are all elite, under the siege of their three-way soldiers and horses, Liu Xun has almost no power to resist, and 20,000 soldiers and horses will collapse at the touch of a button.

The prestige of the general Zhang Liao in the army is very high, Xu Chu and the three of them hated Liu Xun for ambushing his claim Liao, and tens of thousands of soldiers were even more angry in their hearts.

Liu Xun didn't expect Zhang Liao's troops to react so much, and the combat power was so terrifying, his soldiers and horses did not have the slightest resistance, seeing that the general trend had gone, he was shocked and horrified, and hurriedly fled south with the remnants, wanting to flee back to Shu County to defend the palace.

Huang Zhong, Zang Ba, and Xu Chu pushed sideways, leaving corpses all the way to the outside of Shu County.

Liu Xun did not escape, he was captured by Xu Chu five miles away from Shu County, and taken to the outside of Shu County, and all the remnants of his command who were not killed were also driven here.

On the road where Zhang Liao was ambushed, the big and small bandits were also swept away by Zang Ba's army.

At the same time, all kinds of shadows rummaged through almost every corner of Shu County, looking for the general.

The bandits in Shu County all rumored that Zhang Liao had been killed, but there was no body to be found, and no one could tell where the general Zhang Liao died.

This made Xu Chu and other generals even more angry and crazy, all the bandits who had ambushed Zhang Liao were all killed, and tens of thousands of heads were built outside Shu County to form a Jingguan.

Xu Chu's anger and hatred in his heart were unabated, and Liu Xun and more than 10,000 people under his command were detained under the city of Shu County, and they were all killed! And vowed that if the general could not be found for a day, he would not stop killing for a day.

Kill Liu Xun's 10,000 people, if you can't find the general, you will slaughter Shu County! And then there's Wan County!

Huang Zhong and Zang Ba were a little sensible, and they also knew Zhang Liao's consistent style, so they didn't agree with Tucheng, and just wanted to find Zhang Liao's traces as soon as possible.

But Xu Chu, the brute bull, went crazy, and no one could stop him.
