Three Kingdoms Battle

Chapter 72 Killing Sun He

After paying nearly 100 casualties, the Jinfan thief finally rushed through the entanglement, and the more than 100 Jiangdong veterans were also killed and injured and almost completely lost their combat effectiveness.

As soon as the Jinfan thief got out of the entanglement, he rushed to the hill and got rid of the phalanx behind him, which made the phalanx that had been close to Liu Qi empty.

Seeing that the great opportunity was missed, Sun He immediately shouted angrily to the phalanx, "Go up."

The phalanx slowly rushed to the hills under the order of Sun He. Looking at Liu Qi rushing up, he did not fight with him. The hard fight with Jiangdong veterans just now has lost a hundred Jinfan thieves. If he fights hard with the phalanx again, it is purely looking for death. Fortunately, the range of activities on the hills is quite large, and the speed of the phalanx is very slow and can't catch up with Liu Qi at all.

It seems that everyone has forgotten the existence of the Flying Tiger Guard. Looking at the army that was cut in half, Sun He had already given up the second half of the army. In his opinion, even if the second half of the army could not seriously damage the cavalry, it was more than enough to delay the other cavalry.

He didn't know that under no command, the second half of the army was a group of sheep for the Flying Tiger Guard, although the sheep looked quite majestic. But in front of the claws of the flying tiger guard, the majestic sheep are just sheep.

Facing the phalanx that had exposed his back, Wang Yi did not hesitate to kill himself. Leading the Flying Tiger Guard to rush into the phalanx unexpectedly, and the phalanx with its back to the Flying Tiger Guard did not have the power to fight back immediately.

"Kill!" Liu Qi also did not let go of this opportunity and took the Jinfan thief into the chaotic phalanx. The Jinfan Thief and the Flying Tiger Guard united again, and the two different ways of killing made the phalanx that had barely insisted suddenly collapse.

Flying Tiger Guard and Jinfan Thief are like two bloody knives harvesting life piece by piece. One by one, the phalanx collapsed and perished under the attack of two fierce knives.

Sun He looked at the sudden collapse of the army that had just occupied the upper hand. For a moment, his face turned red and he raised his knife and madly cut Gan Ning and shouted, "It's impossible! Impossible! How could the 5,000 army be defeated by a small cavalry? At this time, Sun He couldn't accept it after seeing the defeat of the army and lost his mind.

Gan Ning looked at Sun He, who was out of control, looking for an opportunity while avoiding his big knife. Suddenly, Sun He cut into the air with a knife, and his body staggered immediately. Gan Ning's single halberd stabbed directly into Sun He's heart.

The severe pain made Sun He's brain clear. He looked at the single halberd on his chest in disbelief, looked up to the sky and shouted with all his strength, "It's impossible!" Then he fell down.

Gan Ning suddenly looked down at Sun He's head and shouted at the army, "Sun He's head is here!"

"General..." The remaining veterans looked at Sun He's people and shouted with a headache.

The originally fragmented army immediately collapsed because of Sun He's death. The soldiers abandoned their armor and fled. They knelt down and begged for mercy. The scene was extremely chaotic.

A veteran raised a big knife and rushed to Gan Ning, but was pulled by the people beside him.

"Let go of me, I'm going to avenge the general."

"You are dying. Let's leave quickly and inform the lord to avenge the general." After saying that, he pulled him away without waiting for his reaction.

Liu Qi looked at the chaos and did not stop it. After meeting with Gan Ning, he wanted to go to the south.

In a forest not far away, Liu Qi and others gathered here quietly. The soldiers helped each other silently clean up the wounds and blood on their bodies.

Afield away, Liu Qi and the three of them sat opposite each other. Gan Ning looked at Liu Qi and said, "Seventy people died, 40 were slightly injured, and ten were seriously injured." After saying that, he looked a little depressed. These people have been with him for two years. Although they know that the war will kill them sooner or later, it is still a little sad to see Gan Ning's casualties again and again.

Liu Qi didn't say anything and patted Gan Ning on the shoulder and looked at Wang Yi. Wang Yi saw Liu Qi and said, "Twenty people died, 15 people." The defense of Flying Tiger Guard is generally strong from time to time. Flying Tiger Guard was not seriously injured, and those who were seriously injured in the fierce charge were often dropped and died.

Liu Qi nodded and calculated silently in his heart. After the battle just now, the people around him shrank again, from more than 900 to more than 800. Although it defeated 5,000 troops with more than 100 casualties, it was also heavy casualties for the cavalry of more than 900 people, but fortunately it was a victory.

This time, he not only defeated 5,000 Jiangdong troops but also killed Sun He. Sun He, Sun Ce's cousin, is one of the three generals of the Sun clan. Killing him is more shocking than defeating 5,000 troops.

The reason why Liu Qi led the soldiers and horses to retreat south was that he hoped to tell Sun Ce about their whereabouts through the mouths of those defeated soldiers. Sun Ce thought that he would go south from You County to Jingzhou. Draw away the army that chased him.

I haven't considered Liu Qi from You County from time to time. Although they are close to You County at this time and have the response of Xu Shu's army, it seems easy to return to You County. However, there is only one road to You County. As long as the Jiangdong army blocks this road, he will be trapped in Jiangdong. From the beginning, Liu Qi did not intend to return to Jingzhou from You County.

Eight hundred people only rested for half an hour in the woods, and Liu Qi immediately took the soldiers and horses to Poyang City again. There was a dead silence on the battlefield. Jiang Dong's soldiers had left. Liu Qi picked up a long sword and hung it around his waist. And others will also discard the broken weapons and pick up the lost weapons again.

Then 800 people rushed to Poyang City at night. They took the horse farm and ran away before the news of Sun He's death reached Poyang City.

..................

The first to know the news of the defeat of Sun He's army was Zhongling County. The site where Liu Qi ambushed Sun He was close to Zhongling County, and those scattered soldiers were also the first to arrive in Zhongling County. The lieutenant of Zhongling County was stunned when he heard the news of Sun He's death and couldn't speak. He saw at a glance that the cavalry around Liu Qi was elite, but he didn't expect that Liu Qi could defeat 5,000 troops with more than 900 people, and he didn't expect that Liu Qi could kill Sun He.

After waking up from the shock, the lieutenant of Zhongling County immediately cleaned up and quietly left Zhongling County with his family. Sun He's death would definitely make Sun Ce furious, and this matter involved him. He doesn't want to be killed by Sun Ce. However, before leaving, he made preparations. A fire burned the county government to pieces, as if the county lieutenant had died in the fire.

With the increase of time, Sun He's army was defeated, and the news that Sun He was killed spread all over Jiangdong.

Wu Jun, Sun Ce is discussing military intelligence with the generals.

As the first minister of Sun Ce, Zhang Zhao is naturally in charge of intelligence. Zhang Zhao took the bamboo slip and handed it to Sun Ce and said, "Recently, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have been mobilized more frequently than ever. There have been hundreds of thousands of soldiers on the border between the two sides, and Yuan Shao publicly accused Cao Cao and threatened to fight against Cao Cao Cao. Cao Cao used the emperor's order to confront Yuan Shao, and the situation became more tense. Unsurprisingly, a war would break out within March.

Sun Ce was a little excited when he heard Zhang Zhao's words and said to everyone: "What do you think? When will Cao Cao and Yuan Shao fight?

Zhou Yu said calmly, "If nothing happens, there will be a fight in two months." After saying that, he looked at Zhang Zhao and nodded slightly to apologize. Zhang Zhao shook his head and said nothing. Zhou Yu was better than him for leading the army to fight.

Naturally, the actions of the two could not be concealed by Sun Ce. Seeing the harmony of their subordinates, they naturally smiled happily and said, "Gong Jin, what do you think Jiangdong is going to do?"

Zhou Yu said: "Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are the two largest princes today, and Yuan Shao has the greatest power, but Cao Cao is even better. The lord should take advantage of their war to send troops to the north to reap the benefits of the fishermen. It can also lay the foundation for my attack on the north in Jiangdong.

Sun Ce nodded. Although Jiangdong's terrain is dangerous and difficult to attack, it is also difficult to attack the north. He has been attacking Jingzhou over the years. On the one hand, he is avenging his father, and on the other hand, he is a springboard for attacking the north.

Sun Ce looked at the people and said, "From now on, Jiangdong will secretly reorganize the military preparations, and Gong Jin will be responsible for this matter."

Zhou Yu got up and said, "No."

Sun Ce looked at Zhang Zhao again and said, "As for the grain and fodder, it's just troublesome."

Zhang Zhao seemed to have expected to get up and said, "No."

Sun Ce said to others again, "You must cooperate with Gong Jin. There must be no mistake in Zibu."

"No." Everyone was in unison.

Sun Ce was happy after arranging everything. Just as he was about to entertain the ministers, he heard a cramped footsteps.

The soldiers guarding outside the door quickly came in and gasped, "Lord of the cavalry, General Sun He's soldiers said that there was something important to report outside."

Sun Ce heard a trace of warmth in Sun He's eyes. One of the three generals of the Sun family was his cousin and the other two was his cousin. Among the three, Sun He is the closest to him.

"Let him in." Sun Ce said to his own soldiers.

In a short time, the soldiers came in with a few ragged soldiers. If it hadn't been for the tattered armor that they were soldiers, I'm afraid anyone would have thought they were beggars.

When several people saw Sun Ce, they knelt down and cried bitterly, "Lord, please avenge my general."

Seeing several people, Sun Ce guessed whether something had happened to Sun He, otherwise his own soldiers would not have dressed like this. After hearing the words of several people, Sun Ce was shocked all over, and a sense of sadness surged up.

Revenge! Sun He actually died, and Sun He, who followed their father and son without regret, actually died. Then Sun Ce's anger came out uncontrollably. Looking at several people with cold eyes, he said in a cold voice, "What's going on?"

Hearing Sun Ce's question, several people quickly said what they had said a few days ago, including the cause and effect of Sun He's murder.

After listening, Sun Ce suddenly pulled out his sword with a roar and cut it at the table in front of him. The rumbling table was cut in half by Sun Ce: "Liu Qi, if I don't kill you, it's still like this." After saying that, he looked at several people and said, "Sun He is dead. You soldiers are still alive. Damn it."

Several people cried bitterly when they heard Sun Ce's words, "I was going to avenge the general, but I just wanted to inform the general. Now the lord killed me and waited for me without any complaints."

Hearing the words of several people, and looking at the ragged armor and scratched limbs of several people, Sun Ce waved slowly to let them go down.
