Chapter 293: Xiangyang

Zhu Rong was defeated for a while and retreated to Kuimen. Sun Jianjun took the opportunity to counterattack, the two sides launched a fierce battle under the Kuimen Pass, for two consecutive days, Sun Jian's army attacked day and night, the infantry continued to attack the Kuimen Pass like a tide, the killing sound of both sides echoed in the mountains, and the blood of both sides dyed the Kuimen Pass bright red. However, Sun Jian's army was never able to break through the defense of Kuimen Pass, and because he was worried about the cavalry of the Blue Wolf Army that was about to arrive, Sun Jian's army took the initiative to retreat.

A day later, the Blue Wolf Army arrived on the battlefield, and the two sides entered a stalemate phase.

Along the Shangyong line in the north and along the Xiangjiang River, the armies of both sides were in a state of stalemate, and the more than 100,000 armies of both sides confronted each other, but they did not launch an active attack, and the air on the battlefield seemed to be frozen.

The city of Xiangyang is obviously much more deserted than before, there are few customers in the tavern and tea shop, and the only few guests are also talking about the current war, and everyone can hear that everyone is worried. A young man in a green cloth shirt sighed, "Hey, our Xiangyang was originally the land of fish and rice, but after Liu Biao died, he became a piece of fat for all forces!" Today you call, tomorrow I call, the soldiers and brothers fight, endless! originally thought that Sun Jian would be the lord of Jingzhou and could enjoy peace in peace, but he didn't expect him to provoke Lu Bu! Now it's okay, Lu Bu has fought back, Nanyang is lost, and the 700,000 army is pressed on the border! Ay! ”

The young man in the white shirt who accompanied him sighed empathetically, "Who says it's not!" I really don't know if Wu Chenghou can hold it! If Lu Bu is beaten in, it will really be the sky falling! ”

The two sighed, took a sip of wine, and chatted again.

On the street outside the door, a patrol group walked by, and the officers and non-commissioned officers all scanned the pedestrians on either side with wary eyes. Pedestrians on both sides were in a hurry, not daring to stop on the street.

Sun Ren, dressed in military uniform, rode to the Qiao family's mansion. Turning over and dismounting, a servant had already come forward to take the reins of the horse. Sun Ren entered the gate, all the way to the embroidery building in the backyard, saw two stunning beauties with extremely similar appearances, and called with a smile: "Sister Da Qiao, Sister Xiao Qiao." "It turns out that these two stunning beauties are the so-called Jiangdong Erqiao, and they are really 'born beautiful and difficult to give up, raised in the deep boudoir people do not know', the body is light, the waist is slim, the hair is like a cloud, and the two delicate faces are picturesque, if there are fairies in the sky, they are the two in front of you.

When Er Qiao saw Sun Ren, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly greeted him, Xiao Qiao complained: "Sister Sun Ren, I haven't come to see us for a long time!" Sun Ren smiled: "It's too busy to live in!" Sister Xiao Qiao, don't be surprised! Xiao Qiao pursed his lips and smiled, dragged Sun Ren to the window of the moon cave, and the three women sat down around a small table. The three are delicate and gorgeous, with different styles, Da Qiao is mature and charming, Xiao Qiao is beautiful and refined, and Sun Ren is heroic, as if the three famous flowers of the Heavenly Palace have fallen into the dust.

Da Qiao asked worriedly, "Sister, I heard that Lu Bu's army is coming to the city, what is the situation?" ”

Sun Ren couldn't help frowning when he thought of Zhang Lang he had seen in Xiangyang, "Lu Bu's 300,000 main forces have been approaching the city of Fancheng, but they haven't launched an attack, I don't know what the idea is!" ”

Xiao Qiao hurriedly asked, "I heard that Lu Bu is brave and invincible, is it true?" ”

Sun Ren nodded, "If you talk about martial arts, Lu Bu is probably invincible in the world!" He frowned, "Not only that, but I also think that this person is more treacherous than the average person!" Hmph, he's a treacherous bastard! ”

Er Qiao showed a look of surprise, and Da Qiao asked puzzledly: "Listening to my sister's words, do you know that Lu Bu?" ”

Sun Ren was startled, quickly shook his head, stroked his hair and said, "How do I know him!" ”

Da Qiao thought of the current situation, and couldn't help but sigh, "The princes of the world are strife, I don't know when I will be at peace!" Little Joe sighed sympathetically. Sun Ren said confidently: "I believe that my father and brother will definitely be able to sweep the world and clarify Yuyu."

Er Qiao smiled. Da Qiao hesitated for a moment and asked a little shyly, "Da Gongzi, is he okay?" ”

Sun Ren pursed his lips and smiled, "Sister Da Qiao misses her eldest brother?" ”

Da Qiao was embarrassed, hanging his head, and his delicate face was red. Xiao Qiao on the side pursed his lips and smiled.

Sun Ren frowned and said: "Big brother is in a bad mood, not long ago he fought with Ma Chao under Shangyong City and was defeated by Ma Chao!" ”

Er Qiao was shocked, and Xiao Qiao said in disbelief: "Someone can defeat the eldest prince?!" Who is that Ma Chao? Could he be even more powerful than Lu Bu? Listening to the meaning of Xiao Qiao's words, it seems that in her mind, Sun Ce is invincible in the world.

Sun Ren frowned and said, "Ma Chao was originally the commander of the Xiliang Army, and Ma Teng was his father. Er Qiao had heard of Ma Teng, and he was surprised. Sun Ren said: "It is said that when Lu Bu led the army to the west that day, he fought with Ma Chao for more than 100 rounds before defeating him, and Ma Chao respected Lu Bu's martial arts, so he took refuge in Lu Bu!" ”

Er Qiao was shocked and inexplicable, and Xiao Qiao shouted in a state of affairs: "Ma Chao is not Lu Bu's opponent? ”

Sun Ren nodded, glanced at Xiao Qiao, and said with a smile: "I said, Lu Bu, he is invincible in the world!" Er Qiao couldn't help but be very disappointed, the invincible brother who was originally in his mind suddenly became a third-rate commodity. Hehe, in fact, how can Sun Ce be a third-rate product, but the person who is put out to compare with him at this moment is too powerful, Lu Bu naturally needless to say, one Fang Tian painting halberd is invincible all over the world, and Ma Chao is definitely a super-first-class general who is ten thousand enemies, isn't there a so-called 'one Lu and two horses'? It is normal that Sun Ce is not the opponent of the two of them.

Sun Ren frowned and said, "Lu Bu's terrifyingness is not only his personal super martial arts, but also the elite foot riders he has trained!" I heard the defeated sergeant say that when he was in Nanyang City that day, Uncle Huang set up a dense formation on the street with tens of thousands of elite infantry troops in an attempt to expel Lu Bu's army, but the opponent's thousands of armored iron cavalry stubbornly rushed tens of thousands of elite infantry troops to the point that the corpses were piled up, and the army collapsed! ”

Da Qiao changed color and said: "I usually listen to the servants to tell the fierceness of Lu Bujun, I originally thought it was just an exaggeration to spread falsehoods, but I didn't expect it to be true!" Xiao Qiao was silent, with a deep sadness on his face.

Sun Ren blamed himself: "What do you think I'm talking about? Sister Big Qiao, Sister Little Qiao, do you have time, let's go out of the city to ride horses and relax! Er Qiao was quite moved and nodded one after another. Don't think that Er Qiao is the kind of daughter who hides in the boudoir and doesn't go out of the second door. The women of this era are not like later generations, they are definitely very athletic. The three women immediately left the embroidery building, went to the stable to lead the horses, and went out.
