Chapter 118: Several states are equal

The enemy was frightened, and the reputation of the little overlord was there, and they all lost their weapons, gave up resistance, and surrendered on their knees, and Sun Ce ordered not to kill a single person.

Suddenly, Zhang Ying turned his horse and walked back, was stabbed to death by Chen Wu with a shot, Chen Heng was killed by Jiang Qin's arrow, Xue Li died in the chaos, Sun Ce entered Moling, simply pacified the people in the city, and did not rest, and took the soldiers and horses to Jing County to catch Tai Shici.

After Tai Shici left, he took more than 20 strong people, and then gathered some remnants of the army, ready to go to Liu Miao for revenge. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu discussed, Tai Shici is an excellent general, it is a pity to be forced to die, whether he can be captured alive.

Zhou Yu ordered the army to attack from three directions, leaving only the east gate to deliberately let go, twenty-five miles away from the city, each of the three roads ambushed a pair of men and horses, after Tai Shi Ci arrived, it seemed that people were sleepy and lacking, and they would be captured alive.

Although there are a few people in Tai Shi Ci, but the people recruited are some mountain village men, who do not understand the discipline of the army at all, and the city of Jing County is not very high, that night Sun Ce took Chen Wu with a short knife, first climbed to the top of the city wall to set fire, Tai Shi Ci saw a fire on the city, and was ready to escape from the east gate, and suddenly Sun Ce arrived with soldiers and horses.

Tai Shi Ci sped up, and the troops behind chased for thirty miles, and then stopped, and when Tai Shi Ci walked fifty miles, he had reached the point where people were sleepy and tired, and among the reeds, a shout suddenly sounded.

Tai Shi Ci hurriedly fled, but did not expect that there was a stumbling rope in the grass, and the horse was overturned, and Tai Shi Ci fell off the horse, was captured alive, and was escorted to the camp.

When Sun Ce heard that Tai Shi Ci had been escorted to, he personally dismissed all the soldiers in the camp, and then personally stepped forward to untie the rope that bound Tai Shi Ci, gave him his battle robe, and said to him: "I know that you are a true husband, righteous Bo Yuntian, but I blame that Liu Miao is too stupid to tolerate a general like you, which led to his own failure." ”

Tai Shi Ci was very moved when he heard this, so he asked for surrender.

Sun Ce smiled: "When we duel in the Divine Pavilion, if you catch me, will it hurt me?" ”

Tai Shi Ci thought for a while and said, "I don't know about this either. ”

Sun Ce laughed, asked him to enter the account, invited him to do the above, and set up a banquet to entertain him.

Tai Shi Ci said: "Liu Jun has been defeated now, and the soldiers have no morale at all, I hope that I can personally clean up the remnants of the people and help Ming Gong, I don't know if you can believe me?" ”

Sun Ce stood up and thanked him: "What you said is exactly what I thought, I will make an agreement with you today, I hope that by noon tomorrow, you can come back on time!" ”

Tai Shi Ci agreed, and then left the camp.

The generals were a little puzzled by Sun Ce's behavior, and said, "The lord let Tai Shici leave, he will definitely not come back." ”

Sun Ce said: "I know him, he is a loyal and righteous person, and he will definitely not do such a thing." ”

However, everyone still didn't believe it, until the morning of the second day, the bamboo pole inserted at the gate of the camp could see the shadow of the sun, and Tai Shici suddenly appeared, with more than 1,000 people.

Sun Ce was very happy, and everyone was convinced of Sun Ce's ability to know people.

After that, Sun Ce took tens of thousands of people to appease the local people in Jiangdong, recruit soldiers, and many people came to defect, and the people of Jiangdong also gave Sun Ce an alias, called "Sun Lang".

As long as they heard about Sun Lang, they were all frightened, as long as Sun Ce's army arrived, not a single soldier was allowed to loot, the people's chickens and dogs were not frightened, everything showed a thriving situation, the quality of life of the people has been improved, many people prepared drinks to agree, Sun Ce used gold and silver to thank him, the cheers of the people spread all over the mountains, some of Liu Xuan's troops in the past, also took refuge in Sun Ce, for those who did not want to join the army, they were rewarded to return to the farm, the people in Jiangnan, there is nothing that is not praised, Sun Ce's power reached an unprecedented height, and his army was so strong that Sun Ce personally went to welcome his mother and uncle back to Qu'a, and sent his younger brothers Sun Quan and Zhou Tai to guard Xuancheng.

After not cultivating for long, Sun Ce took his soldiers and horses to the south to fetch Wu County.

There was a man named Yan Baihu, who claimed to be King Wu De, who was guarding Wu County, and sent troops to guard Wucheng and Jiaxing. When he heard that Sun Ce was coming to attack with his troops, he immediately sent his younger brother Yan Yu to send troops to meet at Fengqiao.

His younger brother Hengdao was immediately on the bridge, someone reported the situation, Sun Ce came out, Zhang Hong advised: "The main general is the commander of the three armies, is the lifeblood of the three armies, you can't easily underestimate the other party, I hope the general is self-respecting." ”

Sun Ce thanked him and said, "Sir's words are as precious as gold and stone, but if I always hide behind and don't take it myself, everyone will not work hard." ”

Han Dang, the deputy general who followed, went out on horse, and when Han Dang went to the bridge, Jiang Qin and Chen Wu had already driven a small boat from the river bank to kill the bridge, and the arrows were shot from the shore, and the two of them quickly went ashore to cut down the archers. Yan Yu retreated. Han Dang led the army directly to the gate of Changmen, and the other party could only retreat into the city.

Sun Ce divided the soldiers into two teams, marched together from the water and land, surrounded Wucheng, and was trapped for three days, but still no one went to battle.

Sun Ce took the soldiers to the gate to surrender, and there was a general in the city, holding the beam with his left hand, and pointing at the city with his right hand and scolding.

Tai Shici drew his bow and arrows on his horse, turned back to the people around him and said, "Look at me shooting this guy's left hand!" Before he finished speaking, the bowstring sounded, and it hit the other party, shooting through the man's left hand and firmly nailing it to the guard.

The people in the city rescued him, Yan Baihu was very surprised, and said: "I didn't expect that there were such people in his army, how could we fight!" ”

So the idea of war began to change, and he was ready to negotiate peace.

The next day, he sent his younger brother Yan Yu out of the city to envoy Sun Ce, Sun Ce invited him to drink in the camp, and after three rounds of drinking, Sun Ce asked, "What does your brother want?" ”

Yan Yu said: "My brother wants to share Jiangdong equally with the general. ”

Sun Ce immediately became angry and said, "How dare the rats compare with me. "Immediately sent someone to hold Yan Yu, Yan Yu stood up and drew his sword to cut, Sun Ce backhanded a sword, stabbed the other party to death, cut off the head, and sent someone back to the city.

This incident made Yan Baihu completely lose the idea of resistance, knowing that he was not an opponent, he actually abandoned the city and fled, Sun Ce took soldiers and horses to chase, Huang Gai captured Jiaxing, Tai Shici captured Wucheng, and several states were flat.

Yan Baihu took the remnants of the army to rob all the way on the road, and was defeated by a local person, Ling Cao, with the villagers, so he fled in the direction of Huiji, Ling Cao father and son came to meet Sun Ce, Sun Ce appointed him as a lieutenant from the conscription, and then led the troops to cross the river together.

Yan Baihu gathered thieves and distributed them at Xijin Ferry, Cheng Pu attacked, he was defeated again, and fled to Huiji overnight, Huiji guarded Wang Lang too much, and wanted to take soldiers and horses to save Yan Baihu, but a person next to him stopped him and said: "No, Sun Ce is a teacher of benevolence and righteousness, and Yan Baihu is a violent person, Yan Baihu should be arrested and dedicated to Sun Ce." ”
