The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

After Sun Jianqiang left Yuan Shu's barracks and returned to his tent, he immediately ordered to raise troops.Of the 2 soldiers brought from Changsha, after several battles, there were less than [-] left. Only these [-] soldiers could not deal with Yuan Shu.So Sun Jian left in a hurry, without taking any extra things, left the city from Luoyang, and headed south all the way to Changsha.

By the time Yuan Shu reacted, Sun Jian had already left.Yuan Shu could only sigh, and sent someone to write a letter to Sun Jian, hoping to return to Nanyang for the sake of his family.Sun Jian sneered a few times, and abandoned Yuan Shu's letter to the wilderness.From Luoyang to the south, after passing through Wancheng, the road is divided into two, one leads to Yiyang, and the other leads to Fancheng.The destination of these two roads is Changsha, but the road conditions are different. One is a waterway and the other is a dry road.From Yiyang, you have to go through Zaoyang and cross the Yangtze River to reach Changsha; if you go to Fancheng, you can go down the Xiangjiang River to Changsha.

"My lord, where are we going?" Cheng Pu asked: "A few days ago, there was news that Liu Biao sent Huang Zu to stop us in Yiyang. If we go to Fancheng, we may encounter Liu Biao's army in Xiangyang. That side is not good for us. !"

"It's better to go by water!" Han Dang said: "Our army has been fighting continuously, the soldiers are exhausted, and they have traveled so far. If we encounter Huang Zu, it will be more dangerous. If we board the boat from Fancheng, as long as we are careful enough, we should not encounter the Jingzhou navy. , and it is faster to go this way, even if Yuan Shu sends troops to chase after him, he can still get rid of it!"

Sun Jian nodded: "Yes! Let's go to Xiangyang. If Liu Biao doesn't leave the city, if he dares to come out, let him come and go!"

Long Fei and his team have already passed Tongguan, and they will arrive in Chang'an in two days.Along the way, news from Luoyang kept coming, paying special attention to Sun Jian's movements.On the day Sun Jian left Yuan Shu, Long Fei couldn't sit still.He wasn't worried that Heibing would be bad for him, but that he was interested in the jade seal in Sun Jian's hands, and it was time to implement Jia Xu's plan to steal the dragon and turn the phoenix into a phoenix.

Long Fei found Jia Xu, and Jia Xu took out the fake jade seal made by others and put it in front of Long Fei.It's really like that. He has never seen a jade seal, so he can only make graphics according to the description in the classics for craftsmen to make.But having said that, how many people in the world have seen the jade seal, as long as they see the words "obeyed by heaven, and live forever", everyone thinks that it has surpassed the jade seal.

"Although this thing is a fake, if it is placed after 2000, it will be considered a cultural relic, hahaha..." Long Fei joked.

Jia Xu said: "It doesn't matter whether it's true or not, as long as everyone thinks it's true, it's true. When is my lord going to leave? I heard that Sun Jian has already arrived in Wancheng, so I guess he will go to Fancheng, pass Xiangyang and go to Xiangjiang River to return to Changsha. My lord wants to leave." Go and wait outside Xiangyang city!"

"In this case, then go to Xiangyang and find the second brother, brother Huang and Dianwei!"

When Sun Jian's army left Wancheng, the first goal was Deng County, which is the junction of Nanyang and Xiangyang.Both Yuan Shu and Liu Biao deployed heavy troops here to prevent the opponent from attacking them.The soldiers on Yuan Shu's side said that they didn't get Yuan Shu's order, and seeing Sun Jian approaching menacingly, they had to get out of the way.But Liu Biao's Jingzhou soldiers are different. Sun Jian is still a general of Yuan Shu's army, and a sudden attack is an attack.The Jingzhou army resisted desperately, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides.Helplessly, the Jingzhou soldiers hadn't passed through the battle formation, so how could they fight with these people who had just come off the battlefield. In one morning, Sun Jian defeated the Jingzhou soldiers, took three thousand prisoners, beheaded one thousand, and captured the entire Deng County.

Liu Biao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot when he learned that Sun Jian had come towards Xiangyang instead of Yiyang.Kuai Yue said: "My lord, Xiangyang is an important town in Jingzhou, and there is nothing to lose. You can quickly send someone to invite General Huang Zu to return to the army to help defend Xiangyang, so that Xiangyang will be safe!"

Kuai Liang said: "Even if Huang Zu returns to the army, it may not be effective. Sun Jian wants to use the Xiangjiang River to go down the river and return to Changsha. We should take precautions as soon as possible!"

Cai Mao sneered: "Going down the river? Just kidding, my [-] sailors are vegetarians? I don't want to inquire about the sailors in Jingzhou who dare to underestimate me?" Let's arrange the troops and transfer all the ships east of the Xiangjiang River to Jiangxi, let me see how he, Sun Jian, will go?"

Sun Jian captured Deng County and took Fancheng without stopping.The defenders of Fancheng surrendered without a fight. Sun Jian got a lot of food and grass, so he assembled his army in Fancheng to prepare for battle.The spies came to report that Cai Mao, the commander of the Jingzhou navy, had already sent all the ships on the east bank of the Xiangjiang River to the west bank, and sent [-] sailors to defend the Xiangjiang River, making preparations.At the same time, Huang Zu, who was originally in Yiyang, was returning to the army, preparing to attack from both sides.

"Bastard Liu Biao! He really thinks that this little Xiangjiang River alone can block my way?" Sun Jian slapped his hand on the case: "Pass me a military order, and start building more rafts to prepare for crossing the river today!"

Sun Jian was originally from Wu County, and he had been the prefect in Changsha for many years. Most of his generals were from the south, so water warfare was not difficult for them.Not to mention a Xiangjiang River, even if the Yangtze River is in front, these people have a way to cross.Cai Mao's navy is considered elite in Jingzhou. To these people who have experienced life and death battles, they are just dolls who have never been on the battlefield.

In three days, a thousand rafts were built.No one can accommodate 30 to [-] people. The small rafts are connected together to form a large raft, and a piece of large rafts are connected on the water surface, and the entire Xiangjiang River is like a flat land.At Sun Jian's order, Sun Jian, Sun Ce and his son personally led the charge, Cheng Pu and Han Dang protected the wings, Huang Zhong led the archers followed, stepped on the pontoon bridge built with rafts, and rushed towards Jiangxi with shouts.

Because of the obstruction of the raft, Cai Mao's navy was divided into two, and was suppressed by the archers led by Huang Gai. The advantage of the navy was not reflected at all.Cai Mao anxiously ordered to release arrows, but Cheng Pu and Han Dang on the left and right wings blocked them with shields.The Xiangjiang River, which is only four to five hundred meters wide, was crossed in an instant.Sun Jian, Sun Ce and his son came out of the cage like fierce tigers, and rushed to the Jingzhou army to block the attack on the bank.

The chief general of Jingzhou, Zhang Yun, was Liu Biao's nephew, who was deeply trusted by Liu Biao, and he handed over the defense of Xiangyang to him.Zhang Yun had a close personal relationship with Liu Cong, the second son of Liu Biao. Liu Cong married the niece of Mrs. Cai, Liu Biao's stepwife, and Mrs. Cai was the sister of Cai Mao, the commander of the navy.In this way, Zhang Yun and Cai Mao also have some friendship.After discussing with each other, they decided that Cai Mao would defend the Xiangjiang River with warships, and Zhang Yun would defend the shore with his feet.

What they thought was right, they just overestimated their own strength.Sun Jian used Huang Zhong's 200 archers to restrain Cai Mao's navy, while the remaining [-] troops attacked Zhang Yun.In the beginning, Zhang Yun was a bit overwhelmed. As soon as the two armies came into contact, the Jingzhou soldiers had seen such fierce soldiers. In an instant, more than [-] people fell under the butcher knife of Sun Jianjun.Seeing the blood, Sun Jian's army fought more and more courageously, while the Jingzhou soldiers turned around and ran away.Zhang Yun couldn't stop, so he could only hide in Xiangyang City together.Sun Jian's troops approached the city, and Cai Mao's navy had no choice but to retreat.

Liu Biao did not expect that Sun Jian would be so brave that he had no strength to fight back after the first battle, so he had to order the city gates to be closed and defend Xiangyang to the death, waiting for Huang Zu's reinforcements.Sun Jian went to the city of Xiangyang and shouted at the defenders on the city: "Liu Biao, you can only be a coward! I beat you so hard that you dare not come out in the first battle. When I take Jingzhou, I will tear your body into thousands of pieces." !"

No matter how provocative Sun Jian was, Liu Biao just stayed behind closed doors.And Huang Zu's reinforcements have arrived in Xinye, and will soon return to Xiangyang.Cheng Pu suggested that Sun Jian board the ship and retreat to Changsha immediately, but Sun Jian said with a smile: "There is no one in Jingzhou, take down Xiangyang, and then go down the river. Jiangling and Jiangxia are linked together. Yuan Shu dare not underestimate me!"

"That's right! This Liu Biao is such a wimp, let him be the shepherd of Jingzhou, it's better to let his father do it!" Sun Ce said immediately.

"My lord, I'm still a little worried!" Cheng Pu said again: "Xiangyang City has high walls and thick walls, and it's not easy to take down with our current strength. If Huang Zu captures Fancheng, we won't be able to last long without food and grass. I heard that Liu Biao has appointed Han Xuan is the prefect of Changsha, if we don't go back sooner, it will be a great disadvantage to us if Han Xuan stands firm!"

"We have Jingzhou and we are afraid of Changsha?" Sun Ce disagrees.

Sun Jian smiled and nodded approvingly: "What my son said is very true. As long as Xiangyang is taken, Jingzhou will fall into the hands of our father and son. Pass on my military order and attack Xiangyang again!"

Watching the flames of battle in Xiangyang City, Long Fei took his horse and heaved a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, Sun Jian hasn't left yet. If he gets on the boat, we will be too late to chase him! Let's go up the mountain and have a look!"

Yanshan Mountain is the tallest mountain in the north of Xiangyang, and the situation in Xiangyang can be seen at a glance from here.Sitting on the top of Yanshan Mountain, Long Fei, Zhao Yun, Huang Zhong, Dian Wei and others watched the movement down the mountain.Sun Jian is attacking Xiangyang. His soldiers are so brave that they seem to have reached the city wall.In order to protect their homeland, the soldiers of Jingzhou have to fight no matter how afraid they are. Once life and death are ignored, the rest will be superfluous.Not to mention, the craziness of the Jingzhou soldiers resisted several times of fierce attacks by Sun Jian's army and repelled Sun Jian's army.

Sun Jian's face was full of anger, and he kept urging the soldiers to continue to attack.He even personally led the charge and rushed to the head of Xiangyang city.Zhao Yun nodded: "This Sun Jian is really a leader!"

"Fart! This is a reckless man!" Long Fei said: "As a commander, you should control the entire battle situation from your own position. You can only take the lead in the soldiers, and the only generals who can strategize and win thousands of miles away are the talents of generals, like Sun Jian. He can only be a general of a hundred men! The Han court made him a general, what a joke!"

"Then what can I do? How high an official can I be?" Dian Wei interjected.

Long Fei looked at him: "You! Martial arts are better than Sun Jian, and bravery is stronger than Sun Jian. If I were the emperor, I would definitely make you a riding captain!"

"Hey hey..." Dian Wei smirked. He knew that the captain of the cavalry was bigger than the hundred generals, which meant that he was stronger than Sun.

The battle in Xiangyang was in full swing, and Fancheng, which was across the river from Xiangyang, suddenly burst into flames, which stunned the Jingzhou army and Sun Jian army who were fighting fiercely.
