The Jagged Cavalry of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 89 089 Zhang Yan hits the arrow
Zhu Zhi nodded, and said slowly: "Yuan Shu has been coveting the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom for a long time. If the Major General can dedicate the Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom to Yuan Shu, exchange it back to the old department, and ask Yuan Shu for some soldiers and horses, Yuan Shu will definitely give a hundred of them. Yes. In this way, the major general will have his own troops, and he can ask Yuan Shu for a prefect, so that he can develop himself and no longer be controlled by others."

After hearing Zhu Zhi's words, Sun Ce frowned, looked thoughtful, and said after a long time: "The Jade Seal of the Chuan Kingdom is the treasure that my father tried to protect. If it falls into Yuan Shu's hands, I will miss my father's attention." Under the Nine Springs, I will definitely not be able to rest in peace...Uncle, I will consider your suggestion, but at this stage I still want to fight hard with my own ability, I don't believe it, I can't make a name for myself! "

Zhu Zhidao: "No matter what the major general decides, we, the old lord's old troops, will follow the major general as always."

Seeing Zhu Zhi's loyalty to him, Sun Ce suddenly felt a lot warmer in his heart. At least, his father's old department did not betray him because of being appointed by Yuan Shu.

"You should have contact with Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, right?" Sun Ce asked.

Zhu Zhi nodded, and said: "On the surface, they don't have much contact, but in private, they have a close connection, and they are all like me, they all care about the major general, and they all look forward to returning to the major general again one day. Do the work of a dog and a horse for the major general."

Sun Ce was very relieved, wrote three letters respectively, and handed them all to Zhu Zhi, and said in a low voice: "Yuan Shu usually controls me more strictly, so you hand over these three letters to Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Zhi respectively." Be the three uncles and say hello to them on my behalf. I have not been in touch for so long, it is completely unavoidable, and I ask the three uncles to forgive me."

Zhu Zhi hurriedly put away the letter, stuffed it into his arms, and said to Sun Ce: "Don't worry, Major General, I will definitely hand over all the letters to the three of them. Major General, I have been here for a while. In order not to cause trouble Yuan Shu's doubts, I'll take my leave first."

"Well, I won't give it away, uncle, please take care!"

"Major General, just relax. I believe that the Major General will have a turn of events. By then, it will be the time for the Major General to make great achievements."

"Thank you uncle for your comfort!"

Zhu Zhi withdrew from Sun Ce's tent, but Sun Ce did not dare to leave the tent to see him off, for fear of being seen.

The night was getting darker, Sun Ce blew out the candles, lay down on the couch with his clothes on and fell asleep, but he tossed and turned on the couch, unable to fall asleep, his mind was full of thoughts about how to get rid of Yuan Shu...

At this moment, Zhang Yan was also unable to sleep. After a bloody battle during the day, he finally defended Zhuyi City, but instead of being happy, he became more and more worried.

The battle during the day is still imprinted in his mind. Yuan soldiers almost occupied the tower several times. If the soldiers hadn't worked together and resisted to the death, Zhuyi City might have been captured by Yuan Shu long ago.

It is an indisputable fact that Yuan Shu's soldiers have many generals. During the battle during the day, they beheaded more than 7000 Yuan soldiers, captured more than 1000 people, and drowned more than 2000 people in the Sui River. Together, they were almost wiped out. Ten thousand yuan soldiers.

Although Zhang Yan led the army to successfully repel Yuan Shu's many attacks and wiped out Yuan Shu's [-] troops, in fact, this victory also cost his side a painful price.

On my own side, more than 600 soldiers were killed in battle, and more than 5000 were injured. There are 2 soldiers in the city, but now the casualties have almost reached half.

If Yuan Shu continues to attack like this tomorrow, it is unknown whether he can hold this small Zhuyi City again.

At dawn the next day, Zhang Yan woke up early, fearing that Yuan Shu would come to attack the city again, and he also made his subordinates fully prepared to defend the city.

After yesterday's battle, the morale of the soldiers in the city has improved a lot, and those Cao soldiers who surrendered are no longer afraid of death. Tai Shici, Niu Jin, Xu Sheng, Wang Bo and others are all busy in their own way and actively arrange defense.

At Chenshi, the scouts came back from outside the city. Zhang Yan immediately called the scouts to the top of the city tower and asked Yuan Shujun's movements.

When Zhang Yan learned that Yuan Shujun was camping five miles away and the army hadn't seen any movement, he couldn't help feeling a little curious.He sent several scouts to continue to pay attention to Yuan Shujun's movements.

However, throughout the whole day, Yuan Shujun did not move at all.

At night, when the scouts came back again to report that Yuan Shujun hadn't moved, Zhang Yan became even more curious.

Zhang Yan couldn't figure out what Yuan Shu was thinking, so he only needed to send out scouts to monitor closely.

But on the third day, Yuan Shujun still huddled in the barracks without moving. The scouts watched from a distance and monitored closely, but they did not find any movement of Yuan Shujun.

Zhang Yan was puzzled when he received such news. It stands to reason that if Yuan Shujun didn't come to attack, he could feel at ease.But his heart was in a mess, and there was a faint sense of uneasiness.

For this reason, Zhang Yan specially ordered [-] cavalrymen to go out of the city with Tai Shici, Niu Jin, and Xu Sheng, and went to the front of Yuan Jun's camp to see what happened.

Yuan Shujun's camp was only five miles away from Zhuyi City. Zhang Yan and others could soon see Yuan Shujun's camp. Closed tightly, the big camp was even more lifeless, lifeless at all.

Zhang Yan saw that Yuan Shu's army was heavily guarded, but there was no movement at all. He even led the cavalry around the camp and watched from a distance, but he still didn't find anything wrong.

So Zhang Yan had no choice but to lead his troops back to the city. As soon as he arrived in the city, he received a report from a scout saying that Yuan Shu had led the army down the river and had conquered the enemy, and was now going to the lower Pi.

This news was like a time bomb, which exploded with a "boom" at this moment, causing Zhang Yan's mind to buzz.

"What did you say, Yuan Shu led the army to conquer the enemy?" Zhang Yan couldn't believe his ears. He just inspected Yuan Shu's camp with his own eyes. Why did Yuan Shu's army appear in Xiapi?

The scout said: "This matter is absolutely true. There are only three thousand soldiers and horses left here. The subordinates have already found out that the person who leads this army and horses is Sun Ce, Captain Huaiyi!"

Zhang Yan frowned, no wonder he didn't see the slightest clue, it turned out that the person staying here was Sun Ce.He immediately ordered [-] soldiers to attack Sun Ce's camp. Since Yuan Shu captured Qulu and went to Xiapi, it is too late for him to go now, so it is better to attack Yuan Jun's camp first. Camp, grab Sun Ce and talk!

Once the order was issued, Zhang Yan rushed towards Yuan Jun's camp where Sun Ce was located with [-] soldiers and horses.

But when he led the army to Yuan Jun's camp, there was no one in the camp, and Sun Ce led the army to retreat.

Zhang Yan then led Tai Shici, Niu Jin and other cavalry to pursue Sun Ce, but Xu Sheng and Wang Bo led their troops back to Zhuyi City.

With a loud shout of "drive", Zhang Yanchuo, gun in hand, rode his horse and galloped, Tai Shici and Niu Jin followed closely behind, followed by the cavalry, and a group of people chased in the direction in which Sun Ce and others retreated.

Zhang Yan chased after less than five miles, and saw dust flying in front of him, mixed with the neighing of horses.

There was a smile on the corner of Zhang Yan's mouth, and he finally caught up. This time, he will never let Sun Ce escape again. He must seize this opportunity and kill Sun Ce, so that in the future, Sun Ce will not be sitting in Jiangdong. , it is even more difficult to deal with.

Zhang Yan chased wildly all the way, the horse under his seat was extremely fast, as if he had understood Zhang Yan's mood, he suddenly accelerated, chased after him like flying, and soon drove into the dusty place.

Passing through the dusty fog, Zhang Yan saw dozens of Yuan Bing driving the horses running forward, and some branches were tied to the tails of the horses. Those dusty illusions were actually just dozens of soldiers. The illusion created by the cavalry.

What about the truth?Where is Sun Ce?
"Not good! It's a trick!" Zhang Yan had an idea, and his heart suddenly became clear. He hurriedly reined in the horse's reins, and stopped in place for an instant. He squinted his eyes, fearing that his eyes would be dazzled by the dust, and hurriedly turned the horse's head. , and run backwards.

"Whoosh!"

A feathered arrow shot out from the bushes by the roadside, and then hundreds of arrows shot out, all heading towards the dusty place.

"My lord!" Tai Shici and Niu Jin saw that there were all ambush soldiers on both sides of the road, and all the bows and crossbows were fired at the dusty mist that Zhang Yan was chasing past. shouted.

The sound of "Ding Ding Dang Dang" continued to come out in the fog. Zhang Yan waved the iron gun in his hand and kept covering it. However, there were too many arrows, like rain, and he couldn't cover it at all.

"puff!"

But when he heard a muffled sound, Zhang Yan suddenly felt a burning sensation on his back. A feathered arrow pierced through his armor and stuck on the shoulder blade on his back, causing excruciating pain.

"Herod—"

The black cloud treading snow horse under Zhang Yan's seat was also hit by an arrow in the buttocks, and immediately let out a long and shrill neigh, and ran forward with all four hooves.

With a sound of "swish", the Wuyun Treading Snow Horse rode Zhang Yan on its back, and galloped out of the fog.

Tai Shici, Niu Jin and the others saw that both Zhang Yan and Wu Yuntaxuema were injured, they separated immediately, and each led a cavalry to rush towards the ambush soldiers on both sides of the road. .

"Where is Zhang Yan going to escape? Take another arrow from me!" In the mist, a loud and high-pitched voice suddenly sounded.

Immediately afterwards, a black feathered arrow shot out from the gradually dissipating dust and mist, and flew directly towards the back of Zhang Yan's head.

Zhang Yan vaguely felt a force behind him, and glanced back, but when he saw the arrow coming, he took a breath and hurriedly lowered his body to avoid it.

With a sound of "shua", the arrow shot off the cherry blossoms on Zhang Yan's head. If Zhang Yan had evaded later, Zhang Yan would have been shot through the head by now.Thinking about it makes me shudder.

Zhang Yan leaned close to the horse's back and looked around, only to see Sun Ce majestically riding a war horse, holding a big bow, standing there with a disappointed face.It was Sun Ce who shot Zhang Yan with an arrow.
