After Sun Ce was defeated and retreated, the Jingzhou army led by Huang Jie and Liu Xun's army surrounded Sun Quan's camp and called Sun Quan to come out for dialogue. When Ma Hong learned from the captives that the general who was guarding the camp was Sun Quan, he smiled and ordered Sun Quan to be captured alive. Jiang Qin led a team of guards to protect Sun Quan at the gate of the camp and talked to Liu Xun and Huang Jie.

Ma Hong and Gan Ning Liu Ye also followed, only to see that Sun Quan was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a slightly yellow complexion, and a height of about seven feet six inches. A face as if carved by a knife, with well-defined features, angular, a pair of oblique eyes under a pair of sword eyebrows, the oblique eyes are slightly unstable, and under the tall nose is a moderately thick lip.

Ma Hong looked at Sun Quan's appearance, and said secretly in his heart: Sun Quan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms has purple hair and blue eyes, fine eyes, square mouth, and a strange appearance that is different from ordinary people, but this person in front of me is an ordinary-looking person.

"Who's going to speak?" Sun Quan, under the escort of Jiang Qin, said loudly.

Huang Jie glanced at Ma Hong and nodded slightly, Ma Hong got Huang Shot's meaning, patted his horse and said, "The little general is Sun Quan, Sun Ce's second brother?" ”

Sun Quan looked at Ma Hong, who came to answer, and saw that Ma Hong was younger than himself, frowned, and replied loudly: "Exactly, who are you?" ”

"In Xia Ma Hong, I recruited the little general to ask the little general to surrender, and before surrendering, I asked the little general to see two things." After Ma Hong finished speaking, he gestured to Gan Ning, who was standing aside with two heads in his hands.

Gan Ning stepped forward with two heads and shone his face at Sun Quan, one of the two heads was cut off half of his face, and the other face was hit by an arrow, which was not so easy to identify, but Jiang Qin recognized Zhou Tai's head at a glance, and he was angry in his heart, and he wanted to draw his sword. Sun Quan held down Jiang Qin's sword and said to Ma Hong: "Your Excellency, can you return the head of our army general to me." ”

"Yes, it's just that the little general will tell the names of these two fallen generals, and I will ask for a reward for the meritorious Captain Gan Ninggan?"

Ma Hong said with a smile, he had already asked the prisoners to identify the heads of Cheng Pu and the candlestick. At this time, he deliberately told Sun Quan the news that Gan Ning killed Zhou Tai and Cheng Pu, just to let Sun Quan understand that it was Gan Ning who killed Cheng Pu, and Cheng Pu, as the patriarch of the Sun family, died under Gan Ning's men, so Gan Ning would definitely not dare to take refuge in the Sun family in the future.

Sun Quan shook his teeth, if he lied at this time, then if Ma Hong found out, he might not return Cheng Pu's head to him. Sun Quan thought about it carefully, clasped his hands and said, "It is the head of General Cheng Pucheng of our army and the head of Zhou Tai." ”

"In that case, Captain Gan killed Cheng Pu, but it is a great achievement." Ma Hong said with a smile.

When Gan Ning heard Cheng Pu's words, his hand holding Cheng Pu's head tightened, and he was overjoyed in his heart, killing Cheng Pu, this great achievement will definitely make him an official and a knight. After the joy, Gan Ning thought again, why did Ma Hong announce that he had killed Cheng Pu in front of the two armies, he didn't know that he had the heart to join Sun Ce, could it be that he wanted to improve his prestige? This young man has a good heart.

Jiang Qin's eyes widened, looking directly into Gan Ning's eyes, and he wanted to immediately rush up and slash at Gan Ning, who killed his best friend Zhou Tai, and he was so angry that he wanted to eat his flesh and cut off his intestines. Gan Ning chuckled and looked at Jiang Qin's head, raised his head slightly, and had an expression that he was not afraid of death.

"Your Excellency, please keep your promise and return the heads of the two generals to me." Sun Quan's eyes showed a slight uneasiness.

Ma Hong laughed and said, "Captain Gan, return the head to him." ”

Gan Ning walked forward with two heads in one hand, and the long sword at his waist with the other hand, Jiang Qin pressed the sword with one hand and walked towards Gan Ning. When Gan Ning handed his head to Jiang Qin, Jiang Qin pretended to take his head and quickly drew his sword to stab at Gan Ning. Gan Ning had already taken precautions, smashed his head at Jiang Qin's hand that drew his sword, and stabbed at Jiang Qin. The sword on Gan Ning's waist was a broken sword, and the saber that he cut last night was broken, so the speed of drawing the sword was very fast, Jiang Qin's sword had not been pulled out, and Gan Ning's sword had already stabbed into Jiang Qin's throat, and it was inserted into Jiang Qin's throat without the slightest stop. The next moment, the sword was drawn, blood sprayed on Gan Ning's face, and Jiang Qin fell down in shock. Gan Ning sneered and looked at Sun Quan, who signaled to keep moving left and right. Gan Ning saw that Sun Quan had no intention of going up, so he bent down and picked up two human heads and threw them at Sun Quan, and then slowly retreated back in the face of Sun Quan.

"Little general, give you a stick of incense time to think, to descend or not to surrender, if you surrender, I can ensure that you do not die, and your soldiers can survive. If you do not, I promise to storm your camp within an hour. ”

Ma Hong said loudly.

Sun Quan was silent, and after Ma Hong and the others left, he clenched his fists and opened his eyes wide, with tears in his eyes.

When he returned to the barracks, Ma Hong took off his sad saber and handed it to Gan Ning with both hands, and said: "Hong sees that Captain Gan's saber is broken, Hong has an extra weapon here, and Captain Gan can still take advantage of it." ”

Gan Ning took the sword from Ma Hong's hand, pulled it out, held the wooden pole that was slashed to the side with one hand, and cut the wooden pole with one sword. Gan Ning was overjoyed, looked at the sword in his hand carefully, stroked the sword body with his hand, and then thanked Ma Hong: "Such a divine soldier, thank you for the love of the military advisor." ”

"This sword was also acquired by accident, and I think it can play a greater role in the hands of Captain Gan."

Ma Hong looked at the sword in Gan Ning's hand, this sword was Xu Shu's Yitian sword that picked up Cao Cao, although Ma Hong didn't know about it, but Ma Hong tried this sword afterwards, it was extremely sharp, not weaker than his sword.

Huang Jian looked at the sharp weapon in Gan Ning's hand, his eyes were full of envy, and he looked at the sword on Ma Hong's waist. Ma Hong's heart trembled, and he said secretly: I only cared about currying favor with Gan Ning, but I forgot about Huang Jie.

"General, Hong also has a short sword here, give it to the general."

Ma Hong took out a short sword and handed it to Huang Shot.

Huang Jie said that he was embarrassed, but he still took the sword with joy.

"Dare to ask the military advisor, this sword can be named!" Gan Ning stroked his sword and asked.

Ma Hong shook his head.

"Since it is the military advisor who gave the sword, please also ask the military advisor to name it." Gan Ning said.

Seeing Gan Ning's insistence, Ma Hong thought for a moment and said, "How about calling it a streamer?" ”

"Good name! Good sword! The friend of the military advisor, Gan Ning made a deal. Gan Ning said with a happy face.

Ma Hong was stunned in his heart, and said secretly: ****, it's so easy to buy, can you make a friend with a sword? Are you talking about it, or do you really want to make me a friend?

"It's an honor to have a friend like Captain Gan." Ma Hong said with a smile like water.

Suddenly, the guards came to report, and Sun Quan closed the camp gate and refused to surrender. Liu Xun has led the army to attack, and he has come to ask Huang Jie for support.

Huang Jie looked at Ma Hong and said, "Strategist, do you think we will wait for Liu Xun to fight some people, and then we will go up?" Or go out now. ”

Ma Hong smiled slightly and said, "You can go out of the army and pull out the camp with all your might." Because we don't know when the defeated Sun Ce will return. ”

Huang Jie nodded and said: "Okay, Captain Gan, I'll give you 3,000 men and horses, you go to pull out the camp, and you will definitely break the camp before Liu Xun's army breaks the camp." ”

Gan Ning was about to retreat. Ma Hong stopped Gan Ning and explained: "Captain Gan, we must capture Sun Quan alive, we can use him and not hurt his life." ”

Gan Ning smiled at Ma Hong, showed his white teeth and said, "As long as you work, you will be fine!" ”

Seeing Gan Ning being so murderous, Ma Hong shook his head and said, "No, you must bring it back completely." If our army wants to retreat to Jiangxia safely, it must need it as a hostage. ”

Liu Xun's military camp, Liu Xun personally led the troops to attack the camp, and according to the strategy of the military advisor Liu Ye, he ordered Sun Quan to be captured alive.

"Senior brother, let's see who broke through the enemy's camp first and captured Sun Quan!" Liu Ye looked up at the sky, the dark clouds were dense, and there would be a heavy rain soon.

The heavy rain was about to fall, Ma Hong picked up the bowl and took a sip of cold water, and said slowly: "Senior Brother Ziyang, this time I must you follow me back, Liu Xun, you can't follow." ”
