Chapter 37: Diehards

Sun Ce's voice fell, only to hear three terrible sounds of breaking the air, three rockets from the east, west, north three directions at the same time, Sun Ce and more than 2,000 Jiangdong soldiers watched the three rockets in the air across the curved arc, one fell into the withered yellow grass, before he came to his senses, the three fires had already burned.

Sun Ce was the first to react, his face changed greatly, and he roared sharply: "The whole army will speed up and pass through Maling immediately!" ”

However, it's too late! More rockets were fired in the air, constantly accumulating around the Jiangdong army, the hay carefully prepared by the Lujiang soldiers, which finally exerted its due power, the fire spread rapidly, the wind helped the fire, and soon burned into a piece, from the north, east, and west The three directions were violently pressed, trapping Sun Ce and more than 2,000 Jiangdong soldiers in the middle, leaving only the swamp in the south without fire. Sun Ce was shocked, and before he could give an order, under the threat of fire, more than 2,000 Jiangdong soldiers who were panicked had already fled without waiting for his order.

"Porphyry ......"

Jiang Dongjun jumped into the icy swamp like dumplings, and the thick mud immediately reached their knees, making it difficult for them to walk, and a few unlucky ones sank quickly and disappeared into the mire in the blink of an eye, making the Jiangdong soldiers who did not fall into the water behind them look frightened, not jumping, not jumping.

The raging fire soon spread, standing on the shore can no longer resist the scorching fire, the desperate Jiangdong soldiers closed their eyes, jumped into the swamp, stayed on the shore will be burned to death, although jumping into the swamp may also die, but at least there is a great chance of survival.

Sun Ce was also wrapped up in the chaos and was about to ride his horse and jump into the swamp, but was stopped by Zhou Yu on the side. Zhou Yu was different from the soldiers who were happy in his heart, and he said to Sun Ce:

"Bo Fu, wait and see, since Liu Xun has designed such a vicious fire attack plan in Maling, he will definitely not leave our army a way out in the swamp in the south, I am afraid that there are more vicious means waiting for it."

Zhou Yu is worthy of being a famous young talent in Jiangdong, and the incident really made him guess it.

This swamp is only a dozen feet, and the success rate is still quite high if a person rows through the swamp on his stomach. Although some people sank, many more were able to successfully row through. When the first few hundred Jiangdong soldiers rowed across the swamp and prepared to go ashore, a shout of killing suddenly sounded in the woods opposite the swamp, and then a large group of Lujiang soldiers rushed out of the woods, and at a cursory glance, they judged that there were more than 2,000 people, and the sharp-eyed people soon found that most of these people were archers.

As soon as they stood still, they shot their bows and arrows, and the arrows rained down in the air. Sun Ce wanted to die, and he was ambushed twice in one day, and they were all archers. I didn't even have a chance to fight the enemy soldiers, so I was beaten like this for no reason.

Sun Ce rode on horseback in despair, feeling inexplicably sad in his heart. Recalling that when he set out from Jiangdong, he was still full of ambition and high spirits, and he never thought that he would end up like this. But Sun Ce is Sun Ce after all, and he soon came out of his grief again.

He shouted loudly: "The soldiers are dead anyway, and we will fight with them."

"Yes, it's all death anyway, and I fought with them," the crowd responded excitedly

The veteran Han Dang couldn't help frowning, looked at the swamp in front of him, and secretly gritted his teeth and made a decision.

He shouted loudly, "Brothers, now that we have reached a desperate situation, the Lord has treated us well, and we will repay our kindness with death today." This swamp is only a dozen feet, and we need warriors who are not afraid of death to lie down in a row in the bath to make a human meat bridge for the lord. The lord can get out because of this, I, Han Dang, am the first, and it depends on you whether the lord lives or dies today. ”

After Han Dang took the lead and lay down, the soldiers who were loyal to Sun Ce behind him did not hesitate at all, and lined up in a row like dumplings. But in a moment, a human bridge took shape.

Seeing that the human flesh bridge had been completed, Han Dang then shouted at Sun Ce: "Please don't hesitate, please step over me quickly." ”

"Uncle" Sun Cehu had tears in his eyes, Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu Huang Gai and others also had red eyes, and finally gritted their teeth and stepped on these loyal soldiers.

Fortunately, the ground in front of them is not very wide, and the archers of the Lujiang soldiers cannot give full play to their due advantages. And the leading general Zhu Neng is even more idiot, in this case, he doesn't know how to distance himself and block the Sun army in sections, but gathers the army together and prepares to rush up.

The Sun army on the opposite side was not given in vain, the distance between the left and right was only a dozen zhang, and they also began to bend their bows and arrows to cover Sun Ce's attack. Under the cover of his own archers, Sun Ce brandished his broadsword all the way to block the flying arrows, and the distance of more than ten zhang was instantaneous.

The rain of arrows of the Lujiang army shot out, and Sun Ce had already killed in front of him. It was followed by Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Jiang Qin and several other generals, as they rushed to the opposite bank, the Lujiang soldiers lost the advantage of bows and arrows, and in terms of combat ability, they were naturally not the opponents of Sun Ce's elite generals.

Sun Ce just charged and killed a bloody path like chopping waves. The thousand people who blocked the way, Zhu Neng was even split in half by Sun Ce on the spot, Sun Ce was still unrelieved, and then he smashed his head with a knife.

Seeing that the main general was dead, the Lujiang soldiers suddenly became a mess. Sun Ce was about to turn around to rescue Han Dang, but was stopped by Zhou Yu. "Bo Fu, don't be rash, we can't live up to General Han's good intentions, the Lujiang army behind us is close at hand, they will soon catch up, and we won't be able to leave if we want to." It's not too late to avenge this revenge after we return to Jiangdong. ”

"What Gong Jin said is, Lord, let's go first, don't live up to the dedication of the righteous father, as long as the lord escapes, the righteous father will definitely smile Jiuquan." Cheng Pu and Huang Gai also persuaded with tears in their eyes

Sun Ce's eyes were red with blood, and he bowed three times in the direction of Han Dang before getting up and leaving. When he left Maling, Sun Ce had only more than 1,000 soldiers left.

As for the soldiers in the bath land, they didn't die much, because Liu Xun had already ordered to kill less if he could, and he couldn't make too many enemies if he wanted to occupy Jiangdong later.

When Deng Qiang and his group caught up, they found that the Lujiang soldiers on the opposite side were already in a mess, and Sun Ce and the others had already disappeared, so he spat fiercely and scolded: "This Zhu Neng is really a waste, he missed the lord's big event, and he deserved to die, which can let them escape?" ”

Then Deng Qiang's eyes fell on the Jiangdong army who was trapped in the swamp, and he admired the soldiers in front of him who were willing to be the bridge of human flesh: "You have done your best, your lord fled because of your heroic sacrifice, you are worthy of heaven and earth, and even more worthy of his grandson Bofu." My lord is benevolent and righteous, as long as you are willing to surrender, I will not embarrass you in the future, think more about your wife, children and parents in your family, I advise you to surrender quickly.
