Chapter 39: After the War
"What!? They ran away!? And Ziyi he...... He also ......"
Hukou battalion, watching his subordinates hang their heads one by one, kneeling in front of him in shame to plead guilty, Sun Ce's eyes were red, and he couldn't even believe his ears.
With a 'bang', Sun Ce slammed the teapot on the table to the ground, and the splinters flying all over the ground were like sharp daggers, stabbing the hearts of the Jiangdong generals present.
"Say! What the hell is going on!? Sun Ce asked loudly with a cold face.
Sun Ce was very angry, not because he was successfully escaped by Jinfan, nor because he lost five or six thousand people, but because his most trusted confidant and favorite general was gone.
Sun Ce is a meritocrat, the most capable person, and Tai Shi Ci is undoubtedly one of the best in terms of martial arts, character and leading troops to fight, even today, Sun Ce will miss the encounter between him and Tai Shi Ci in Shenting Ridge a few years ago.
At that time, Tai Shi Ci was still a scout under Liu Xuan, the two were hostile, and after a heads-up, Sun Ce grabbed Tai Shi Ci's halberd tied to the back of his neck, and Tai Shi Ci picked Sun Ce's helmet, which can be described as equal and indistinguishable.
After Tai Shi Ci returned to Shun, the two were also like-minded and like brothers, if it weren't for Tai Shi Ci's seniority in the Jiangdong Army was too shallow, when he went to Jinfan before, the one who would have been the coach would never be Huang Gai, but Tai Shi Ci.
But such a talent who was regarded by Sun Ce as the future of the Sun family was unexpectedly fallen in a battle that he thought was no suspense and even more insignificant to Jiangdong, how could Sun Ce not feel indignant?
"I'll tell you!" Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yu, who was the division of this battle, stood up before Huang Gai.
Originally, this kind of thing, the first person who should be responsible is Huang Gai, who is the main general, but Huang Gai is old, Zhou Yu really can't bear him being scolded by Sun Ce, after all, Sun Ce's domineering and strong is famous, and he doesn't recognize his relatives when he starts his temper, and Huang Gai's personality happens to be very hard, if he accidentally hits Sun Ce, it will be light to be drawn dozens of boards.
Zhou Yu didn't exaggerate too much, just told the whole story as it was, and only added a sentence at the end: "Before, a soldier saw General Ziyi and Jinfan General Gan Ning fighting for hundreds of rounds without winning or losing, and was finally shot in the shoulder by Jinfan leader Wang Chong with an arrow, and when we cleaned up the battlefield later, we couldn't find General Ziyi's body, so according to my speculation, General Ziyi was not killed on the spot, but was only captured by Jinfan." ”
Obviously, Zhou Yu had already figured out Sun Ce's mind and knew very well the source of his anger.
Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, and the anger on his face unconsciously subsided a lot: "In this way, Ziyi may still be in the world?" ”
Zhou Yu nodded: "As long as that Wang Chong doesn't want to develop into an undying enemy with my Jiangdong, General Ziyi will not be in danger for the time being!" ”
"That's it, as long as Ziyi is still alive." Sun Ce breathed a sigh of relief and instructed Zhou Yudao, "Find out Jinfan's movements as soon as possible, no matter what the price is, you must bring Ziyi back safely." ”
"No!"
"By the way, is Gan Ning's martial arts really so strong that he can fight Ziyi for hundreds of rounds without falling behind?" Sun Ce asked curiously.
As soon as Zhou Yu heard this, he immediately knew that Sun Ce had a strong interest in Gan Ning: "This matter is not very clear, after all, I didn't see it with my own eyes, but that Gan Ning shot down the banner of General Ziyi with an arrow, which led to the rout of our front army, this thing is true." ”
"It seems that this Wang Chong and Gan Ning are both rare talents." Sun Ce said with emotion, "Gong Jin, you put more thought into it, if you can make these two people use it for me, my Jiangdong Army will definitely be like a tiger!" ”
Zhou Yu looked bitter when he heard this: "Bo Fu, I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult to do, if Wang Chong really has the heart to surrender to my Jiangdong, he will not fight with us before and have to escape from Poyang Lake." ”
Sun Ce frowned and said, "The more capable a person is, the stronger his self-esteem, why was Wang Chong's reaction so fierce before?" In this matter, the first thing we have to do is to reflect on ourselves, if I were Wang Chong, I'm afraid that Zhong Xiang and Youping wouldn't want to come back that day! ”
Zhou Yu's expression froze, although Sun Ce did not say it explicitly, but he heard the blame in his words clearly, after all, it was his idea to let Zhou Tai secretly talk about the surrender of Li Tao before, if he hadn't done more, maybe so many things in the future would not have happened.
"Hmph, Wang Chong, you wait for me, one day, I will definitely make you my subordinate!" At this moment, Zhou Yu turned all the grievances he received from Sun Ce into resentment towards Wang Chong.
――――――――――――――
On the other side, at this time, Wang Chong had already led the Jinfan soldiers down the river and entered the Jiangdong boundary.
After counting, the loss of Jinfan in this battle was about 2,000 people, that is to say, if Wang Chong did not use the skill of 'walking for the top', the number of their casualties should be around 4,000.
With 10,000 horses against 20,000 Jiangdong elites, not only did they successfully break out of the opponent's encirclement, but their own losses were less than half of the opponent's, such a record is enough to be called a big victory.
After this battle, Wang Chong's experience points were even more surprisingly large, with a full 6,511 points, plus 1,000 experience points rewarded for the successful use of skills, the total number reached an unprecedented 7,511 points.
Wang Chong sighed with emotion: "Tsk, it seems that in the future, this experience value will still have to be fished from the regular army!" ”
In fact, the number of enemies killed by their Jinfan this time was only more than 5,000, and the reason why the experience points they gained would exceed 6,000 was mainly because from those Jiangdong soldiers who had positions, Wang Chong did not get just 1 point.
For example, you can get 5 points for killing a captain, 10 points for killing a chief, 20 points for team rate (Dubo), 50 points for Tun generals, 100 points for military Sima (Qu Chang), and 200 points for Qianren Governor (tooth general), these people alone have given Wang Chong more than 1,000 experience points.
And with these 7,511 points of experience, Wang Chong's level was like taking an elevator, and it skyrocketed by several levels at once.
Name: Wang Chong (word Shaolin)
Grade: 16
Experience: 1755/2300
Skills: Camouflage, Lv3 Walking, Lv1 Capture the Thief and Capture the King, Lv3 Throwing Bricks and Attracting Jade, Lv1 Watching the Fire from the Other Shore, Lv1 Waiting for Leisure
Skill points: 5
When Wang Chong's level reached level 15, the system had another prompt, and now he can open the sixth thirty-six tricks, and the skills to choose from are 1: robbing with fire, 2: hiding a knife in a smile, 3: adjusting the tiger from the mountain, 4: golden cicada shelling, 5: blossoming on the tree, 6: bitter meat meter.
Wang Chong thought for a while, and then chose the second skill, Hiding the Knife in the Smile.
Although the other five skills are also very practical, this smile hides a knife, and Wang Chong will just use it next.
