Chapter 272: Murder and Heart
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu, who were far away on the ship, saw this scene, and their faces suddenly changed.
Such a rushing firelight spread wantonly along the reeds by the river.
How can the Huang Gai troops hiding in it get out?
Sun Quan gasped and hurriedly said,
"Quick, send someone to save the public!"
But Zhou Yu next to him came back to his senses and immediately spoke to stop it,
"My lord, no!"
"If you don't save the public, I'm afraid he will be buried in the fire!"
Sun Quan shouted.
"Lord, the public is to be saved, but we have to get the fleet out first!"
Zhou Yu said hurriedly.
was reminded by him like this, and Sun Quan reacted.
The remaining dozen or so big ships are still hiding in the reeds!
If the fire spreads, it will not only be Huang Gai who will be ruined, but the entire fleet will be wiped out with it!
Sun Quan broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly ordered,
"Quick, get the fleet out!"
But before the war drums of the order could sound, Sun Quanzao shook the boat violently.
Everyone stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
Sun Quan held on to the railing and said angrily,
"What's wrong?"
A lieutenant ran over in a panic and said with a sad face,
"My lord, there are water ghosts scuttling boats!"
"What?!"
Sun Quan and Zhou Yu were dumbfounded.
For them, this news is no less than a bolt from the blue!
"Lord, the other ships sent a signal, they all encountered the water ghost scuttling the boat, and now they can't move!"
Another lieutenant ran over.
This series of bad news is like a hammer, knocking on Sun Quan's heart.
His eyes were black, and he almost fainted!
Zhou Yu next to him breathed rapidly, and his chest fell together, showing how shocked he was.
It was only now that they suddenly understood.
I was ambushed by Huaxiong!
Looking at the Huanggai troops on the shore and the boats on the river, they were all shrouded in fire,
Sun Quan's heart was almost dripping blood.
This is his elite troops, otherwise he wouldn't have brought them out to pursue Hua Xiong!
However, it was lost here in vain, and it was buried in the fire!
He is unwilling!
Zhou Yu hated it so much that he almost crushed his teeth.
He thought that the plan he laid down was seamless, but he was unexpectedly calculated by Hua Xiong!
"Huaxiong, I'm inseparable from you!"
Sun Quan roared angrily.
"Lord, let's get off the boat quickly!"
Zhou Yu suppressed the anger in his heart and suggested.
Just now, in order to talk to Hua Xiong, their ship took the initiative to appear.
Now the bottom of the boat has been scuttled by water ghosts, and although it is stranded at the bottom of the river, at least it has not fallen into the sea of fire.
It was imperative to get out of the ship so that we could rescue the others.
Sun Quan took a deep breath, quickly stood up, and took a small boat with his subordinates, heading towards the shore.
When they reached the shore, Hua Xiong and the others had already taken a small boat and fled.
And looking at Huang Gai's headquarters and the ship, it was already a sea of fire, and there was no way to rescue it!
……
The sky was bright.
The fire was gradually extinguished.
Around the Wuli River ferry, it was a mess.
Countless charred corpses lay there in all directions.
Sun Quan sat there with blank eyes, and Zhou Yu stood aside, his face extremely ugly.
"Lord, the battle damage has come out."
Huang Gai, whose face was covered with black and gray, walked cautiously over.
Fortunately, he was very watery and good at holding his breath, so he escaped from last night's fire.
Sun Quan raised his head and glanced at him, and said weakly,
"Our army has 3,000 men and horses, and more than 2,700 people have been killed and wounded.
Three of the sixteen ships were not burned, but their bottoms were also scuttled. ”
Hearing such a battle report, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's faces became more and more pale.
Before leaving, they had information about Huaxiong and led ten times the enemy's men.
I think that I have captured Hua Xiong, and I have my hands on it!
However, in the battle last night, they didn't even catch Hua Xiong's hair, and their own losses were almost equal to the annihilation of the entire army!
How does this not make them angry?
"Let's go, withdraw the troops."
Sun Quan reluctantly stood up and prepared to go home.
Just then, a soldier hurried over.
"My lord, this is a letter found in the palanquin left by the enemy.
It says let you see it for yourself. ”
Sun Quan frowned and took the letter from the soldier's hand.
Sure enough, there were a few big words written on the envelope,
"Sun Zhongmou personally enlightened."
Sun Quan snorted coldly, tore open the envelope, and took out the letter inside.
There was only one short sentence in the letter.
Sun Quan only glanced at it, screamed, and opened his mouth to spurt blood, and fainted to death!
"Lord!"
"Lord!"
"What's wrong with you, lord?!"
Huang Gai and the others hurriedly stepped forward and supported Sun Quan.
And Zhou Yu caught the letter that was about to fall to the ground.
He picked it up and only glanced at it, and in an instant blood gushed to his head.
Zhou Yu's eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
I saw such a sentence written on the letter, "Sun Quan's clever plan to settle the world, he lost his wife and broke his army!" ”
Murder and heartbreaking!
Zhou Yu only had these four words in his mind.
Nima's hi Huaxiong robbed our women, killed our people, and even left letters to mock!
Can you be a person when you step on a horse!
……
Seven or eight medium-sized boats were speeding across the river.
From the open window, there was a loud burst of laughter.
"Lord, now that Sun Quan is probably going to cry to death!"
"He never dreamed that the lord not only did not rush to escape, but also set up an ambush!"
"We didn't waste a single soldier, and we let him die and wound countless people.
The lord is really a good plan! ”
"Especially the last letter, I estimate that if Sun Quan sees it, he will probably be so angry that he will vomit blood!"
Everyone said a word, and the atmosphere was very cheerful.
After arriving at the Wuli River last night, Hua Xiong noticed that the river was full of reeds, and thought of attacking it with fire.
It's just that no one would have thought that Sun Quan would cooperate so much and let all his subordinates hide in the reeds.
Gan Ning's sergeant with excellent water ability submerged into the water as a water ghost, close to the Sun army's warship.
The reason why Hua Xiong talked nonsense with Sun Quan for so long was to delay time for the water ghosts.
The last rocket destroyed Sun Quan's pursuers.
Seeing such a result, how could everyone not admire Hua Xiong?
"It's just a little trick to carve insects."
Hua Xiong smiled slightly.
Although he is modest, he is also very satisfied with himself.
sneaked into Jiangdong this time, not only captured Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, but also severely frustrated Sun Zheng's style, which can be said to be a full harvest.
Thinking of Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, Hua Xiong's heart moved.
He left his men behind, got up, and went to the back room.
"Squeak", and the door was pushed open by Hua Xiong.
Big Joe and Little Joe inside raised their heads and looked over.
"King Wei ......"
Da Qiao hurriedly got up.
Hua Xiong waved his hand, then sat down on the chair,
He smiled and said,
"Qiao Ying, are you still waiting for Sun Quan to save you back?"
