Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are also depressed now, according to the original plan, after Liu Xun came to Shangyu to attack, they led the army to retreat, and rushed to Anhui County overnight, with the marching speed of their army, they could reach the city of Anhui County in one day, but what made them feel incredible was that it was not long before the army crossed the river, and it was stopped by Huang Zu's army. Jiangxia Huangzu's training of the navy is the world's first-class elite, plus his own team was not very prepared for water warfare, the purpose was just to use a huge fleet to cross the river and land, to Anhui County, so there were no big ships, all of them were those brisk ships, red horses and other small boats, only Sun Ce and the generals took a building boat, and seven or eight fighting ships, so if you rashly start a war with the other party, your own side will definitely suffer. But if he didn't fight, Huang Zu's thousands of warships blocked his way, making it impossible for him to cross the river at all. Sun Ce couldn't help but be furious, ordered the building boat to go to the front of the formation, climbed to the top floor of the building boat, and shouted at Huang Zu: "Huang Zu Lao'er, you don't want to be your Taishou in Jiangxia, what are you doing in my Danyang territory?" Huang Zu smiled and said: "This is Jiang Xin, everyone in the world can do it, why can't I, Huang?" This time, I, Huang, am not for anything else, I just want to set off from here to Jiujiang County, since everyone has met together, and they have their own business trips, there must always be an order, right? You lead your fleet back ten miles, and wait for the old man's army to pass through before moving. Sun Ce was furious when he heard this, and immediately said: "Huang Lao'er is too deceitful, this is the territory of my Danyang County, if you want to go first, it will also be the first, why don't you lead the army back ten miles, and you will leave after we pass Guò?" But I heard Huang Zu say: "The old man can't trust you little doll, once our army moves first, you will definitely lead the army to take advantage of the situation to attack, so won't our army suffer?" Therefore, you still move first, and the old man promises not to move you. Sun Ce sneered: "Each other, you don't believe us, we still don't believe you, Huang Zu, I will promise you in the name of General Anton, as long as you pass through Guò, we will never touch you." Ben will crisscross the three counties of Jiangdong, and he has never been untrustworthy, if you agree, if you don't agree, Ben will fight you to the death today to avenge my father. I only heard Huang Zu laugh and said, "Sun Ce Xiao'er, do you think that you can threaten the old man in this way?" What kind of hero was your father Sun Wentai back then? Aren't you still dying? You are such an ignorant child to the general, it is simply not worth mentioning, if you start a war, the old man is waiting at any time, I want to see if you are a powerful Danyang elite soldier, or my Jingzhou naval army is powerful? Sun Ce couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, if he talked about the elite of the Danyang elite soldiers, looking at the whole world, I am afraid that Cao Cao's Qingzhou army could be compared with it, but this is talking about fighting on land, and as for the water army, Hugh said that there is no preparation for a water war at all now, even if he is well prepared, his Danyang soldiers are not necessarily the opponent of the opponent's Jingzhou water army, not to mention that now he is going to lead the army to raid Anhui County, if he fights hard with Huang Zu at this time, I am afraid that even if he is barely defeated, he will definitely no longer have the strength to coerce Anhui County to surrender, so that he can be regarded as a busy job this time. Therefore, although Sun Ce threatened to fight, but in his heart he was not willing to fight this battle with Huang Zu at all, although he wanted to strangle Huang Zu to avenge his father now, but he deeply knew that his current strength was insufficient, at least after occupying the Lujiang River and growing stronger, he would threaten Jiangxia by waterway and kill Huang Zu to avenge his father. What's more, now that Liu Qi occupies Yuzhang County, it is like a thorn in the flesh for the entire Jiangdong, if it is not pulled out, Jiangdong will not be stable for a day, and if you want to occupy Yuzhang, you must have a strong enough force, and then rely on enough patience and decisiveness to capture the fighters, so that there is such a possibility. And as long as Lujiang County is occupied, Yuzhang can be surrounded by his own side on three sides, whether it is by water or land, whether it is fighting or not, he occupies the initiative. Therefore, although the belligerent factor was boiling in his body, Sun Ce could only forcibly hold back the thought of fighting. But no matter what, as the commander of one side, and he is in his own territory, if he gives in like this, he will definitely lead to a decline in morale, not to mention that he is really worried that the other party will attack when he retreats, so he resolutely disagrees to make way for the other party. And Huang Zu seemed to be iron-hearted this time, and he didn't have half a point of accommodation at all, so he confronted Sun Ce's army. "The warplane is fleeting, are we just spending our time here?" Sun Ce's eyes showed a thick unwillingness, and he asked in a low voice. "At this moment, only the lord secretly ordered the Danyang Navy to also go out, and when the time comes, we will concentrate on defeating Huang Zu first, and then send troops to Anhui County, fortunately, now Liu Xun is blocked, and we can't go back at all, we still have a chance." Zhou Yu's face sank, nodded and sighed. "Looks like that's the end of it." Sun Ce hurriedly ordered Zhang Zhao to write down an order, and then ordered his henchmen to take a small boat to Qu'a to deliver a letter, and ordered Sun Quan and Zhou Tai, who were there, to lead 20,000 sailors to come in the starry night and unite to defeat Huang Zu so that they could march into Anhui County by themselves. In fact, what he hoped most was that when he saw Sun Quan's reinforcements arrive, Huang Zu was directly scared away, so that he could not only preserve his strength, but also rush to Anhui County more quickly. As for Huang Zu, as long as he occupies Lujiang and takes Yuzhang, it is not too late for him to settle the account. Under such circumstances, Sun Ce had no choice but to confront Huang Zu's army for two days. Two days later, Sun Quan arrived with 20,000 reinforcements. Standing on the building boat and seeing the huge fleet coming from behind Sun Ce from a distance, Huang Zu's face couldn't help but change, and he immediately ordered the army to retreat. "Haha, the old dog who didn't have the courage was so scared that he was so scared, he knew it was like this, why bother in the first place?" Sun Ce couldn't help laughing and scolded at Huang Zu's fleet. At this moment, Zhou Yu's face suddenly changed, and he said loudly: "It's not good, lord, we were fooled, if my expectations are good, this time Huang Zu intercepted us, it must be a conspiracy set by Liu Qi, a certain general is afraid that this battle of Anhui County will change, so we should immediately send troops to Anhui County, and at the same time be careful of Liu Qi, maybe he set up some conspiracy there?" "Wouldn't it? Now that Chaisang is in our hands, how easy is it for Liu Qi to go to Anhui County? Although Sun Ce didn't believe that Liu Qi would be able to break through Chaisang in such a short period of time, he didn't dare to guarantee that the other party would not use other tricks, so he still gave an order with a solemn expression: "The whole army immediately advanced at a high speed, and strive to reach the city of Wanxian as quickly as possible." Fortunately, the road was very smooth, the army soon came to the city of Wanxian, the army immediately surrounded the entire city of Wanxian densely, and then Sun Ce came to the south city gate, shouted at the city: "The defenders of the city listen, your master Liu Xun has died in Shangyu, the tens of thousands of troops have all collapsed, now you have no food and grass inside, no rescuers outside, if you know each other, surrender early, and you can avoid the disaster of a county, otherwise, once the city is broken, it will be slaughtered for three days." "I didn't expect that after a short time, I saw a white flag hanging on the city, and then I saw the city gate slowly coming, and a general tied up and led a team of men and horses to the city gate, indicating surrender to Sun Ce." The last general Shu Shao visited the general, he had already heard of the general's name, and he hated not to have a chance to visit, and today the general was in the city, and the last general did not dare to resist, so he led the soldiers and civilians of a county to submit to the general, and hoped that the general would treat the creatures of my county well. Shu Shao knelt on the ground and said respectfully. Sun Ce laughed when he heard this, helped Shu Shao up, and personally untied him, and comforted: "The general doesn't have to be polite, there is a general who understands the righteousness so well, how can the general do something to the creatures of a county?" The general's contribution to the city is not small, and the general will appoint you as the captain to make meritorious contributions in the future. There is another reward, General Shu, please enter the city with this general. "No, thank you, General." Shu Shao bowed to Sun Ce, and then followed Sun Ce and led Sun Ce into the city. To tell the truth, he didn't have any dislike for this Sun Ce now, but he admired this person's demeanor in his heart, and even saw that the other party treated him so sincerely, he almost couldn't help but really submit to the other party. But he had already promised Liu Ye that if he wanted to earn Sun Ce to enter the city, he couldn't break his trust with others, not to mention that Liu Ziyang, who he had always admired, found him and explained to him that the Liu Qi he was loyal to was also like Sun Ce, and more importantly, this Liu Qi was better able to know people and be good at his duties than Sun Ce, and even a nobody like himself had heard of it, and he was under Yuan Shu's account with Sun Ce back then, looking at the other party's appearance, but obviously he had never heard of himself. So Shu Shao hesitated slightly, then forcibly resisted the urge to tell the other party the truth, sighed secretly in his heart, and took Sun Ce into the city. When Sun Ce saw Shu Shao enter the city, he couldn't help laughing, and he was about to enter the city. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu suddenly stopped him and said solemnly: "Lord, it is better to let the last general enter the city first, and when it is confirmed that the city is safe, it is not too late for the lord to enter the city again." Sun Ce smiled and said: "As the main general in the army, how can this general not go to the city to surrender?" However, what you are worried about is not unreasonable, it is said that since Liu Qi'er sent Huang Zu to intercept us, there will inevitably be a conspiracy, but until now we don't know where he is now, which is indeed very weird. It's better to do this, Gongjin, you lead a part of the people to be stationed outside the city first to respond, and when the general is confirmed to be safe, you can lead the troops into the city again, in case the book will be unlucky, there will be a response. ”

"But this is also too dangerous, the lord is responsible for the safety of all the people in the three counties of Jiangdong, and he is not light, so it is better to let the last general enter the city." Zhou Yu shook his head and still insisted.
