Liu Xuande and the others were not good at water. When they reached the front of another raft with great effort and found the oar, when they looked back, Wenpin and others had already left far away.
"hateful!"
Liu Xuande's face was livid with anger, but there was nothing he could do. The three of them could only row the raft together and chase Wenpin and others farther and farther away.
He knew very well that Wenpin must not be allowed to run away, otherwise things would go badly wrong.
Even in history, he had to go to Jingzhou, and only after finding Zhuge Liang could he develop and go to Xichuan.
But if Liu Biao knew about the eldest son of Jingzhou, Liu Qi, it would be impossible for him to go to Jingzhou. It could even be said that Liu Biao would never let him go and would send people to hunt him down.
And now he had nowhere to go, so he could only get rid of Wenpin, conceal the matter, and then continue to go to Jingzhou to coax Liu Biao.
Wenpin was injured. Even if he got ashore, he would have to treat his injuries first. He would definitely not be able to run fast. As long as he chased him, there was a high chance of catching him.
Just when Liu Xuande was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a voice under his feet. He hurriedly looked down and saw Huang Zhong, who had fainted, slowly opening his eyes.
"Mr. Xuande, what happened just now?"
Liu Xuande was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "General Huang, you were so careless just now that you didn't even notice that Cao Jun was approaching you."
"What?"
Hearing this, Huang Zhong was startled and hurriedly sat up and looked around. Only then did he realize that there were only four of them on the raft. He was even more surprised and asked hurriedly, "Mr. Xuande, where is the eldest son?"
Liu Xuande let out a long sigh, "Just now, Cao Jun attacked from a distance, and I only saved you. However, because the eldest son was far away, I didn't have time to save him. He was hit by an arrow and died, and he fell into the water.
And the three of us brothers couldn't swim, so we could only watch the eldest son sink to the bottom of the water, unable to do anything. "
At this point, Liu Xuande's eyes became wet, "General Huang, now that the eldest son is here, how can I go back to see Liu Jingsheng!"
When Huang Zhong heard these words, his face turned pale with shock and he could hardly believe his ears.
"Mr. Xuande, you said there was a sneak attack, is that true?"
Liu Xuande nodded, "General Huang, how could I lie to you?"
Huang Zhong looked around and suddenly asked, "If the eldest son was shot by a bow and arrow and fell into the water, and Wenpin has great martial arts skills, could it be that he was also shot by a bow and arrow? This is impossible!"
Liu Xuande shook his head, "General Huang, General Wen was not hit by the bow and arrow."
Having said this, Liu Xuande turned to look at the rolling river and sighed, "General Wen saw the eldest young master falling into the water, and he jumped into the water without even thinking about it.
It's a pity that he was seriously injured and could no longer move his arms. He could only watch helplessly as he sank into the water with the eldest son and never came up again. What a pity to General Wen. "
After hearing this, Huang Zhong's expression changed, "Both the eldest son and General Wen were in trouble, and I am the only one left?"
Speaking of this, Huang Zhong's heart suddenly moved, "Xuan De Gong, that's not right. I remember there are two soldiers. Where are they now?"
Liu Xuande was stunned for a moment, then sighed, "The two of them fought with the enemy, but they were shot by bows and arrows and fell into the water. Their whereabouts are unknown."
Huang Zhong turned to look at Liu Xuande, frowned and said, "If the two of them were also killed by Cao's soldiers, Mr. Xuande, then how did you three brothers escape this disaster?"
Liu Xuande was already prepared and said slowly, "General Huang, when those Cao soldiers saw our three brothers being tied up, they thought they had captured a few prisoners. They were a little careless and actually moved the raft closer to capture us alive."
At this point, Liu Xuande sighed, "Thanks to my rope being untied, I took action and knocked those Cao soldiers into the river, allowing us three brothers to escape."
Liu Xuande's words had already been thought clearly in his mind and were well-founded. After hearing this, Huang Zhong believed it in his heart and couldn't help but sigh.
"I really didn't expect that so many things happened on the raft during the time I was unconscious. It's just a pity that the eldest son and General Wen could be saved. I thought I could save them, but I didn't expect it to be like this. What a twist of fate."
Liu Xuande waved his hand, "General Huang, the matter has come to this, you'd better not feel sad."
Huang Zhong stood up and cupped his hands towards Liu Xuande, "Mr. Xuande, thank you for saving me just now, otherwise I might have been plotted by the enemy."
Liu Xuande hurriedly stepped forward to help him, "General Huang, there's no need for this. It's just a matter of effort, don't worry about it."
At this point, Liu Xuande's tone paused, but then he continued without waiting for Huang Zhong to answer his words.
"General Huang, what's happened now, what are your plans in the future?"
Huang Zhong sighed, "Now that the eldest son has been killed in battle, I am going to return to Jingzhou and inform Ambassador Liu about this."
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Liu Xuande nodded, "That's okay. Let's go together and avoid Liu Jingsheng's misunderstanding."
Liu Xuande relieved Huang Zhong's doubts and directed everyone to row the raft and chase in the direction where Wenpin had disappeared.
It was not until it was getting late that Liu Xuande and others came to the shore.
Zhang Fei jumped onto the shore, stamped his feet vigorously, and laughed loudly, "It's great to finally be down to earth, haha."
Liu Xuande nodded, and then ordered Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to go first, and then he and Huang Zhong walked slowly.
Of course, he did this not to worry about Huang Zhong's health, but to ask the two of them to chase Wenpin and catch him no matter what, otherwise it would ruin the matter.
Liu Xuande knew that Wenpin's matter had already affected his future. If Wenpin survived, he would not be able to go to Jingzhou. I am afraid that even the historical mission will not be completed, let alone one of the overlords of the Three Kingdoms. This is just a dream. .
But if Wenpin can be successfully eliminated, Liu Xuande can still go to Jingzhou and continue to do things that have not been completed in history.
this point is very important!
Huang Zhong thought Liu Xuande was concerned about his body and kept explaining.
"Mr. Xuande, although I was unconscious just now, I am fine now. It will be fine even if I walk faster."
Liu Xuande waved his hand, "General Huang, there is no rush at this moment. Once you recover a little, we will move forward as quickly as possible. Don't miss your body."
After hearing this, Huang Zhong was even more grateful to Liu Xuande. The two of them had never known each other before, but now they respected him a little more.
Maybe it was due to historical reasons, but in short, Huang Zhong felt particularly cordial to Liu Xuande.
