Chisonggang, Jiangdong Army Battalion.

Sun Ce and Zhou Yu came to the wounded barracks to comfort the wounded soldiers.

Seeing Sun Ce come in accompanied by Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai struggled to sit up, but Zhou Tai was too seriously injured, and as soon as he fell over, he touched dozens of wounds on his body, and he snorted in pain at that time, and fell back to the couch, and the wound on his chest cracked again, and the gauze that wrapped his chest soon oozed red blood.

Sun Ce hurriedly stopped and said, "Youping, don't move, don't move." ”

Zhou Tai sighed with shame on his face and said, "Lord, the last general will disappoint you." ”

"Where did Youping say? The performance of the Rui Shi Battalion in today's battle is heroic enough, and the reason why the nest was not defeated is not because your Rui Shi Battalion is not performing well, but because of the will of God. Sun Ce gently held Zhou Tai's hand and said, "What's more, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and Youping doesn't have to take it to heart." ”

Zhou Yu also said beside him: "The fault of today's defeat is not in the Ruishi camp, but on me." ”

"My lord? Governor! The more Sun Ce and Zhou Yu said this, the more guilty Zhou Tai felt in his heart.

It's just that it's superfluous to say anything at this time, Zhou Tai can only be secretly ruthless in his heart, just wait for the injury to heal a little, and he will definitely lead the Ruishi battalion to fight again, and swear to take the nest for the Sun family!

Sun Ce also comforted: "Youping, although you can rest assured that you are recuperating from your injuries, as for the loss of the Ruishi battalion, I will give you as many people as you lose, just wait for you to recover from your injuries, you can choose people from the army, but all the military marquis below, no matter who you choose, you can take them away immediately, and no one is allowed to shirk and refuse to let people go for any reason." ”

"My lord." Zhou Tai choked up a little, and shouted the lord but choked up.

What else is there to say? I can only use this life to repay the grace of the Lord!

"Take care of your injuries." Sun Ce patted Zhou Tai's hand lightly, and then came out and asked the military medical officer, "How is General Zhou's injury?" ”

The medical officer hurriedly said: "My lord, General Zhou Tai has eighteen knife sores, six arrow sores, and one blunt force wound, and he has lost a lot of blood, but fortunately, General Zhou Tai's physique is strong enough, so he has no worries about his life, but even so, it still needs at least three months of recuperation before his injuries can be roughly recovered." ”

"Three months?" Sun Ce sighed, turned back to Zhou Yu and said, "Youping can't catch up with this big battle. ”

"But it doesn't hurt." Zhou Yu said lightly, "My Jiangdong army is like a cloud, Jiang Qin, Pan Zhang, Chen Wu, and Dong Xi are all Jiangzuo heroes, even if there is no Zhou Tai, I don't worry about having no generals." ”

Sun Ce sighed and said, "It would be nice if Ziyi was here." ”

Zhou Tai was seriously injured, Sun Ce himself was also an arrow sore that had not healed, and although the Jiangdong Army was a brave general, there was no third one who could be called the fierce general of the three armies, so Sun Ce remembered Tai Shici.

If Tai Shi Ci was here, how could Sun Ce lament that there was no fierce general available?

Sun Ce's exclamation can be said to be unintentional, but Zhou Yu's heart moved when he heard it.

Zhou Yu remembered that after hearing the news that Tai Shi Ci was still alive, Tai Shi Ci's subordinate Ma Zhong had made trouble in front of Sun Ce, threatening to wait for Zhang Niu Calf to come back, and to tie up Zhang Niu Calf and exchange it for Tai Shi Ci.

Zhou Yu suddenly thought about it, and whispered: "Bo Fu, why don't you let Ma Zhong surrender?" ”

"Ma Zhong?" Sun Ce was surprised and asked Zhou Yu, "Gongjin, do you mean to let Ma Zhong surrender and then try to rescue Ziyi?" ”

Ma Zhong is Tai Shi Ci's fellow townsman, but also Tai Shi Ci's generals, in the early peace years with Tai Shi Ci from Qingzhou south to Liu Xuan, after Liu Xiang's defeat, Ma Zhong surrendered with Tai Shi Ci Sun Ce, Xia Cai a battle, Ma Zhong because he stayed in Pan Zhang's camp to teach archery so he escaped a catastrophe.

Ma Zhong is not an old general of the Sun family, and he has nothing to do with the old Yuan family, and no one under Yuan's command should know Ma Zhong, so it is completely feasible to let Ma Zhong go into the city to rescue Tai Shici.

At that moment, Sun Ce said again: "Gongjin, what a good idea, why didn't I think of it?" ”

Zhou Yu shook his head with a smile and corrected: "Bo Fu, I said to let Ma Zhong surrender, but it was not to save Tai Shi Ci, General Tai Shi Ci doesn't need you to save the lord, as long as he is alive, he will return to Jiangdong sooner or later." ”

"Not to save Ziyi?" Sun Ce frowned and said, "Gongjin, then why did you let Ma Zhong surrender?" ”

Zhou Yu looked around and found that there was no one else within ten steps nearby except Lu Meng, so he lowered his voice and said murderously: "Booby trap Yuan No!" ”

"Booby trap Yuan?" Sun Ce lost his voice and said, "Yuan is extremely cunning, how can he be easily fooled?" ”

"I expect that Yuan will definitely fall for the trick!" Zhou Yusen smiled solemnly, and said, "What's more, even if the booby trap can't be achieved, Ma Zhong can also take advantage of the situation to infiltrate Yuan's camp and assassinate Yuan No." ”

"Assassinate Yuan?" Sun Ce disagreed, "I'm afraid this matter is not easy, last time Lu Meng assassinated Yan Xiang and almost missed, if it wasn't for Ling Caoshui's timely response, maybe Lu Meng would have been captured by Yuan No, this time Ling Ma Zhong assassinated Yuan No, wouldn't it be even more dangerous?" Even if he was lucky, Ma Zhong was afraid that he would not return, and this matter was not appropriate. ”

Zhou Yu said in a dark voice: "It is definitely not okay to hunt openly, but assassination is okay." ”

"Assassination?" Sun Ce didn't react for a moment, and frowned, "How to assassinate?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "Bo Fu, could it be that you forgot that Ma Zhong's archery skills are from the same family as Tai Shi Ci?" ”

"Ma Zhong's marksmanship?" Sun Ce's expression was stunned, and then he suddenly remembered that when he and Tai Shici fought viciously on the Shenting Ridge, Ma Zhong only rode alone to deter Huang Gai, Cheng Pu and other thirteen horsemen! forced Huang Gai and Cheng Pu to make a detour, and they were delayed for an hour to find him, almost missing a major event.

Afterwards, Sun Ce asked, only to know that Ma Zhong fired three arrows in a row, and successively shot Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang, and the thirteen horsemen such as Huang Gai were afraid of Ma Zhong's divine shooting, plus they were worried about Sun Ce, and they had no intention of fighting with Ma Zhong, so they could only take a detour in the end, which delayed for more than half an hour.

"Yes, Ma Zhong is a divine shot!" Zhou Yu said, "If Ma Zhong descends into the city by fraud, whether Yuan Xiao'er believes it or not, he will not be able to kill Ma Zhong immediately, on the contrary, for the sake of the false name of Corporal Lixian, he will also be courteous to Ma Zhong, as long as Ma Zhong is in the Yuan camp as a general, with his magic shot, in the chaos of the army, he is still worried that he will not find the opportunity to shoot Yuan No?" ”

Sun Ce's heart was moved, and he said, "But, how to deceive him? ”

Zhou Yu smiled and said, "It's okay to be so ......"

(Dividing Line)

Zhang Niucal rode a fast horse and walked back and forth between Juchao and Chaohu Lake in two days.

In Chaohu, Zhang Niucalf saw his mother, and the Zhang family's grandmother scolded Yuan's family, scolding Yuan Shu for being a chaotic minister and thief, causing a good Huainan to be dilapidated, and nearly a million people were displaced, but when it came to Sun Ce, he was full of praise, and bluntly said that Sun Ce was benevolent and righteous, and gave the Huainan refugees the best life.

The Zhang family's grandmother also forced Zhang Niucalf to kowtow to Sun Ce's immortal tablet to thank him.

Like Yuan No, Sun Ce also gained huge popularity in Chaohu Tuntian.

After all, China is now in an era of war, and almost no local princes think that it is their job to help the victims, even Cao Cao has never done this kind of thing, although Cao Cao also tuntian, but has always been a military tun! For the common people, he at most reduced or exempted taxes, and took out military rations to promote people's settlements, but he never did such a thing.

Of course, then again, the Central Plains was originally the elite land of the Han Dynasty, and it was also a place where soldiers must fight, and naturally, it also became the hardest hit area of warlord melee, and the warlord melee for many years not only caused a large number of people in the Central Plains to die, but also the scholars were forced to move to other places to avoid the war, so even if Cao Cao wanted to implement Mintun, he could not find the scholars to buy his land.

Sun Ce's biggest benefit in Chaohu Tuntian was not the millions of stone military rations he could get every year, but the return of hundreds of thousands of Huainan refugees, which Zhang Zhao probably didn't expect.

So after returning from Chaohu, Zhang Niucal's heart was in turmoil, and he didn't know what to do.

Will you return to the Yuan family, or will you switch to the Sun family? This huge problem was suddenly placed in front of Zhang Niu Calf.

Outside Juchao City, Zhang Niucal hesitated for a moment, and finally turned his horse's head and went to the Jiangdong Army camp. No matter what, Sun Ce treats him very well, and he leaves without even saying hello, isn't it ruthless and unjust?
