Sun Ce put away his tears, invited him to sit down and said, "The reason why Sun Ce is crying is that he can't inherit his father's legacy. ”

Zhu Zhi said: "Why don't you tell Yuan Highway to borrow troops to go to Jiangdong, save Wu Jing under a false name, and really plan for a great cause, but be trapped under people for a long time?" “

While they were deliberating, a man suddenly came in and said, "I already know your plan. I have hundreds of strong men under my command, temporarily helping Bo Fu! ”

Sun Ce looked at the person in the past, who was Yuan Shu's strategist, a native of Xiyang, Runan, surnamed Lu, named Fan, and Ziheng. Sun Ce was overjoyed and invited him to sit down and discuss important matters together.

Lu Fan said: "I'm only worried that Yuan Shu won't borrow troops. ”

Sun Ce said: "I have the heirloom jade seal left by my deceased father, if I use it as a hostage, Yuan Shu should lend it to me." ”

Lu Fan said: "Yuan Highway is a person who loves vanity, and he has long had the heart of being the emperor, and Yuan Highway has been looking forward to this thing for a long time!" If this is used as a material, Yuan Highway will definitely lend us soldiers and horses, so that we can send troops. The three of them had decided to discuss with Yuan Shu the next day.

The next day, Sun Ce went to see Yuan Shu, and said to Yuan Shu in tears: "I haven't been able to avenge the murder of my father, and now my uncle Wu Jing is forced by Liu Xuan, the assassin of Yangzhou; Sun Ce's mother's family is young, and they are all in Qu'a, so they must be killed by him. Sun Ce dared to ask you to borrow thousands of soldiers to cross the river to rescue relatives and visit relatives. ”

Yuan Shu said: "Bo Fu, you have a low official position now, I am afraid that you are the commander of so many soldiers and horses, and you will not be able to serve the people." ”

Sun Ce also wanted to say that Yuan Shu was just prevaricating for various reasons.

Sun Ce had no choice but to say: "My lord, I'm afraid you don't believe that there is still a jade seal left by my ancestor here, and I am willing to leave the jade seal as a pledge to Lord Yuan!" Sun Ce held a brocade box in his hand and walked in front of Yuan Shu.

Yuan Shu hurriedly went to look at it, grabbed it and played with it for a while, and said very happily: "I didn't want your jade seal, stay with me for the time being, I will keep it for you and your father for the time being." In that case, I will lend you three thousand soldiers and five hundred horses. If this war is quelled, come back as soon as possible. ”

Sun Ce thanked him and said goodbye, so he led the soldiers and horses, and took Zhu Zhi, Lu Fan, and the old generals Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and others to choose a day to raise troops.

When I walked to Liyang, I saw a ride in front of me. Look closely at this person, this person has thick eyebrows and nose, a black face and short hair, and a strange face.

Sun Ce stepped forward and asked, "I don't know who this gentleman is?" Why are you standing in my way here? ”

This person saw that Sun Ce did not dislike his appearance, and he blocked the way of others, but still treated himself with courtesy, so this person arched his hand and said: "In Pangtong, Xiangyang, Xiajingzhou, I heard that the young general is going to Yangzhou to rescue your uncle Lord Wu. After speaking, Pang Tong laughed and touched his little beard, but this made Pang Tong's face even more difficult to admire.

Sun Ce said happily: "Mr. Mo is not the Feng Xiao Mr. Pang Tong that everyone said!" ”

Pang Tong arched his hand and said: "This is just a fallacy from the master Mr. Shuijing, Pang Mou doesn't dare to be it!" ”

Sun Ce hurriedly dismounted, held Pang Tong's arm and said, "Hahaha! All right! I have to be a gentleman, just like the ancestor has to Zhang Liang! Why worry about big things! ”

Let Pang Tong meet Zhu Zhi, Lu Fan, Huang Gai, Zu Mao, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and others. Pang Tong said to Sun Ce: "If you want to achieve great things, do you know that Jiangdong has two zhang?" ”

Sun Ce said: "What two? ”

Pang Tong said: "One person is Zhang Zhao, a native of Pengcheng, with the word Zibu; One is Zhang Hong, a native of Guangling, with the character Zigang. Both men had a talent for living in seclusion to avoid war. Why don't you visit them and ask for their help? ”

Sun Ce was very happy, so he immediately ordered someone to hire them with gifts, but they couldn't refuse. Sun Ce went to his house in person and talked with them very happily, so Sun Ce struck while the iron was hot and hired the two of them, and the two readily agreed. Sun Ce then appointed Zhang Zhao as the chief historian and the general of the army; Zhang Hong was the captain of the staff officer: to discuss the attack on Liu Xuan.

Besides, Liu Xuanzi is a good manner, a native of Donglai Muping, this person is also a clan relative of the Han family, the nephew of Taiwei Liu Chong, and the younger brother of Liu Dai, the assassin of Yanzhou; The former Yangzhou Assassin Shi, stationed in Shouchun, was defeated by Yuan Shu and drove across the Yangtze River, so he came to Qu'a to station.

When Liu Miao heard that Sun Ce's army was about to arrive in front of him, he quickly gathered his generals to discuss.

Liu Miao said: "Everyone, now Sun Ce, the son of Sun Jian, has led his troops to crusade against me. Tell me, what should I do? ”

General Zhang Ying said: "I led an army to be stationed in Niuzhu, even if there are millions of troops, I don't want to get close to the south of the Yangtze River. Before he finished speaking, one of the people under the account said: "I am willing to be the vanguard of the front!" ”

Everyone looks at the past, it is Shi Wansui from Jingzhao Duling, who served under Liu Xuan every year in Taiping, and Liu Xuan has always kept him under his account. Shi Wanzai heard that Sun Ce was coming at that time, and he was willing to be the vanguard of the front.

Liu Miao said: "General Shi, my camp still depends on you, don't move easily, please don't be impatient, let's sit in the camp here!" ”

Shi Wansui had no choice but to respond: "Said, No." ”

Zhang Ying led the army to Niuzhu and accumulated 100,000 yuan of grain in the granary. Sun Ce led the army to arrive, Zhang Ying came out to meet the battle, and the two armies converged on Niuzhu Beach.

Sun Ce was on the horse, Zhang Ying scolded, and Huang Gai went out to fight with Zhang Ying.

However, after a few rounds, suddenly there was chaos in Zhang Ying's army, and some people reported that someone in the village set fire. Zhang Ying hurriedly returned to the army.

Sun Ce led the army to come and chase after him. Zhang Ying abandoned Niu Zhu and fled while looking at the depths of the mountain.

It turned out that the people who set fire to the back of the village were two fierce generals: one was a native of Shouchun in Jiujiang County, surnamed Jiang, named Qin, and the word Gongyi; One is a person from Jiujiang Xiacai, surnamed Zhou, named Tai, and the word Youping. Both of them suffered from troubled times, and people gathered in the Yoko River to rob for a living; I have long heard that Sun Ce is a heroic hero in Jiangdong and is recruiting talents, so he specially attracted more than 300 of his henchmen to come to meet him.

Sun Ce was overjoyed and appointed him as a former lieutenant of the army. Collected the grain and weapons of the Niuzhu granary, and surrendered 4,000 soldiers, so they entered the Soldier God Pavilion.

Besides, when Zhang Ying returned to see Liu Miao after defeat, Liu Miao was furious and wanted to kill him.

The strategists Narrowing Rong and Xue Li persuaded them to resist. He led the army to camp in the south of the Shenting Mountains, and Sun Ce set up camp in the north of the Lingnan.

The person next to the question said, "Is there a temple of Emperor Guangwu of Han on the mountain near here?" ”

Pang Tong said: "There is a temple on the mountain. ”

Sun Ce said: "I dreamed at night that Emperor Guangwu summoned me to meet and go to pray. ”

Changshi Zhang Zhao said: "Lord, no. Lingnan then Liu Xiangzhai, if there is an ambush, what should I do? ”

Sun Ce said: "The gods bless me, what am I afraid of!" So he put on a boring gun and got on the horse, leading Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, etc., a total of thirteen horses, out of the village and on the mountain, to the temple to burn incense.

After dismounting and paying homage, Sun Ce knelt down and prayed: "If Sun Ce can work in Jiangdong and revive his old father's foundation, that is, he should rebuild the temple and worship at four o'clock." After praying, he got on his horse from the temple, turned back to the generals and said, "I want to climb over the mountains and visit the Liu Xiang Zhaizhai." “

The generals agreed that it was not possible. Sun Ce insisted on going, so he climbed the ridge together and looked south at the village forest. There was already an ambush on the road, and the small army flew to report to Liu Xuan, and Liu Xuan said: "This must be Sun Ce's plan to lure the enemy, and you can't chase it." ”

Shi Wansui said: "Lord, this can be chased, I am willing to be a pioneer." ”

Liu Miao said: "General Shi, don't be impatient, if it is Sun Ce's plan to lure the troops, I'm afraid we will lose our troops, so let's rest and prepare for war first." ”

After speaking, Liu Miao turned around and left, returning to the big tent.

Shi Wansui turned indignantly and said to a lieutenant general beside him: "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, Suda, are you willing to go with me and make a great contribution?" ”

Zhang Xutuo said: "I am willing to obey the general's orders!" ”

After that, Shi Wansui, Zhang Xutuo and the two of them got on the horse and chased after Sun Ce.

But he said that Sun Ce watched for a long time before returning to the horse and preparing to return. As he was walking across the ridge, he could only hear the shouting from the ridge: "Sun Cexiu is leaving!" ”

Sun Ce looked back and saw two horses flying down the ridge. Sun Ce shook the thirteen horsemen away. Sun Ce immediately waited at the bottom of the ridge.

Shi Wansui shouted, "That's Sun Ce? ”

Sun Ce said, "Who are you?" ”

Shi Wanzai said: "I'm Shi Wanzai, a native of Jingzhao Duling, and I'm here to capture Sun Ce!" ”

Sun Ce smiled and said, "I am Sun Ce." The two of you come together to fight me, and I'm not afraid of you waiting! I'm afraid. Without you, I'm not Sun Bofu! ”

Shi Wansui said: "You are more than 10 horsemen and horses, and I am not afraid!" “’

Zhang Xutuo said: "General He Lao made a move, and I will take him down!" ”

Zhang Xutuo rode his horse and speared and took Sun Ce directly. Sun Ce raised his gun to greet him. The two horses intersected, and the battle was fifty together, regardless of victory or defeat.

Cheng Pu and others were secretly surprised. Zhang Xutuo saw that Sun Ce's marksmanship did not leak at all, so he pretended to be defeated and led Sun Ce to come.

Zhang Xutuo did not go up the mountain from the original road, and finally turned behind the mountain. Sun Ce arrived and shouted: "The one who ran is not a hero!" “

Zhang Xutuo thought to himself: "There are twelve servants behind this guy, and I have only one, so I captured him alive and ate many people and snatched him." Take another ride, so that this guy has nowhere to go, so it's easy to start. ”

So he walked while fighting. Where is Sun Ce willing to give up, one rushed directly to the land of Taipingchuan. Zhang Xutuo returned to the horse and fought again, and went to fifty he.

Sun Ce swept a shot, Zhang Xutuo flashed, holding the gun hostage; Zhang Xutuo stabbed him with a shot, and Sun Ce also flashed and held the gun hostage. The two dragged hard, and they both rolled off the horse. The horse didn't know where it had gone.
