A hundred miles away, in the north of Guangling County.
The tide is rolling and the flags are flying.
Just when Gao Yi, who was warm-hearted in ancient times, held a candlelight conversation with Du Xiuniang in line with the humanistic concept of caring for orphans and widows.
Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong, has personally led 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers, crossed the natural chasm of the Yangtze River, and arrived at Guangling County.
Hundreds of warships, driven by Jiangdong soldiers, moved north along the river.
At that time, Chen Deng and his son had served under Lu Bu, but when Cao Cao invaded Xuzhou, the father and son severely attacked Lu Bu from behind.
Now Gao Yi sent Zhang Liao to lead a large army and stationed it in the north of Guangling County. They might attack at any time.
Instead of sitting back and waiting for death, it’s better to take the initiative!
Guangling County and Wu County were only separated by a river. Chen Deng had heard about Sun Ce's reputation in Wu County and knew that he now had strong soldiers and horses and had the potential to sweep across the east of the Yangtze River.
Therefore, Chen Deng promised Sun Ce a huge profit and strongly invited Sun Ce to come to help in the battle.
This time, Chen Deng can be said to be in full force.
The only 20,000 soldiers in Guangling County were mobilized, together with the 30,000 Jiangdong soldiers under Sun Ce, for a total of 50,000 soldiers and horses. They were known as: an army of 100,000 and a thousand ships.
Just as Sun Ce was sailing on the bow of the boat in high spirits.
In all directions, countless torches suddenly raised, illuminating the dark night sky instantly.
Sun Ce was startled and hurriedly raised his sleeves to block the glare of the fire.
On the ship, tens of thousands of Jiangdong soldiers were also in panic, looking for bunkers nearby in an attempt to block the light.
For a moment, the boat deck seemed extremely crowded.
After a few breaths, his eyes gradually adapted to the light, and Sun Ce put down his arms, looked forward intently, and took a deep breath.
Rockets filled the sky like meteors, shooting from all directions.
Sun Ce hurriedly waved his spear to block the incoming rockets.
For a time, the Jiangdong soldiers on the ship suffered heavy casualties, and dozens of warships were set on fire by rockets.
Sun Ce was filled with resentment. After blocking several waves of arrows, he had time to look for the enemy.
I saw a large number of enemy ships laying horizontally on the waterway ahead, blocking the way for Jiangdong soldiers to go north.
And on those ships, there were all enemy soldiers wearing armor and sharp weapons.
The general at the head has a face like purple jade and eyes like bright stars. Wearing full armor and holding a yellow dragon hook sickle, he stood on the bow of the ship with his eyes wide open.
He is really dignified and majestic.
"How dare you, the rats from the east of the Yangtze River, invade us? Don't you know that this is my lord's territory?"
I heard the four words Jiangdong Rats!
Sun Ce's color changed almost instantly.
It's like the blood in the body naturally rejects these four words.
Just when Sun Ce ordered the entire army to attack and ram the enemy ships ahead.
Southerners are good at boats, Northerners are good at horses.
Zhang Liao has been on the battlefield for many years and knows that when it comes to water battles, the northern wolf soldiers under his command are definitely no match for the Jiangdong soldiers.
Immediately ordered thousands of wolf soldiers under his command to return to the city, not giving Jiangdong soldiers a chance to fight on the water.
Before leaving, Zhang Liao shouted:
"Rat! I'll let you go tonight. If you dare to continue heading north, this is the place where you will be buried."
After hearing this, Sun Ce's eyes were filled with anger and he was about to return to the north, but was stopped by Zhou Yu next to him.
"Bo Fu, the river is blocked now, and the enemy has discovered our traces. If we rush northward, we may be attacked by the enemy at night again."
"Why don't we wait for them to dock and stay where they are until dawn tomorrow? Then we can urge Chen Deng to quickly dispatch Guangling County soldiers to attack Xiapi border together."
Sun Ce was still angry and hit the ship's plank with his long spear. He snorted coldly and said: "According to Gong Jin's words, we will stay where we are for reinforcements. When we are reunited with Chen Deng's troops, we will return to the north." Go forward and attack Xiapi State to avenge today's night attack."
…
On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, in Xiapi City.
Firecrackers startle dreams and gongs and drums make noise.
The streets and alleys are overcrowded.
Today is the day when Xuzhou Mu Gaoyi gets married, and it is also the day when he takes in concubines.
The direct wife Gao Yi wants to marry is Lu Lingqi, the daughter of Marquis Wen.
The concubines to be accepted are four beautiful widows: Mi Zhen, Gan Mei, Du Xiuniang, and Diao Chan.
Originally, when Lu Lingqi learned that Gao Yi wanted to take Diao Chan as his concubine, she felt a little conflicted.
But after all, the window paper has been pierced. She, Lu Lingqi, is just a woman. How dare she bear the word "jealous wife" and prevent her husband from taking concubines and procreating heirs.
After all, my husband is so handsome and unrestrained, and his body is as crazy as a devil. Not to mention just four concubines, even if he has more than ten concubines, he will still be able to slay his concubine.
Anyway, she and her husband have been childhood sweethearts and have been in love for a long time. Those concubines can't shake her status as the head wife.
Why should I be a jealous woman and attract criticism from others?
…
I heard that this Lord Zhou Mu is going to marry five stunning beauties today.
Today, before it gets dark, there are a large number of people in the city, bringing their families with them to watch, hoping to see the true appearance of the five beauties.
After waiting for a long time, a convoy welcoming the bride finally appeared on the road.
The leader is a handsome young man wearing a red wedding robe of Shu brocade and riding a dark horse.
The eyes are like bright stars, and the mouth is like a hanging river.
The temples are as sharp as a knife, and the eyebrows are like ink paintings.
The face is like a crown jade, and the lips are like grease.
A perfect skin as rich as jade.
Gentle and elegant, incomparable bones.
Elegant and transcendent, like an immortal.
As the wedding convoy slowly passed by, five splendid carriages carrying stunning beauties appeared in front of everyone.
On both sides of the carriage, there were hundreds of young, beautiful, and graceful dowry maids.
These dowry maids were all gifts from Gao Yi's uncle Mi Zhu, and they were all considerate and sweet girls.
Gao Yi originally strongly refused this, but He Mi Zhu gave too much.
Therefore, Gao Yi could only ignore his conscience and reluctantly accept his uncle's wishes.
Just as Gao Yi was deep in thought.
Suddenly, a sentry rider came flying from a distance.
"Your Majesty, General Zhang Liao ordered his subordinates to send military reports."
"Chen Deng, the governor of Guangling County, colluded with Sun Ce from Jiangdong and led 50,000 troops to invade. Now General Zhang Liao has clashed with Sun Ce's 30,000 Jiangdong troops and is facing off in Ling County."
Hearing this, Gao Yi frowned and said in a cold voice: "How dare you invade my territory, don't you know that this is the way to die?"
"The order of the Mujun of this prefecture was passed, and Yuan Zuozong was ordered to lead three thousand snow dragon cavalry to Ling County to assist Zhang Liao's troops."
After this little episode.
Everything went smoothly afterwards.
Soon, it was Gao Yi's favorite plot: the wedding night!
Gao Yi, who was slightly drunk, came to the backyard with the help of several young and beautiful maids in the greenhouse.
"My lord, I wonder which lady's room you plan to go to first?"
Hearing this, Gao Yi couldn't help but fall into deep thought. He had just been busy exchanging glasses with the guests, but he had forgotten the highlight of the night.
Diao Chan! Ganmei! Mi Zhen! Lu Lingqi! Du Xiu Niang! Choose one of five?
What a joke!
Only children can do multiple choice questions?
Gao Yi stretched out his finger and gently hooked it on the beautiful maid's nose, showing a smile.
"Ask Ganmei and the others to rush to Lingqi's room, and tell them that I will have a billion-dollar business deal with them later, and I want to discuss it with them at night."
