"Brother, mother asked me to take you home."
Sun Quan's eyes wandered around, not knowing where to land.
Sun Ce stared at Sun Quan stupidly, not knowing what to say.
Only the lively Sun Shangxiang wore his joy calmly on his face and kept looking at Sun Ce and then at Sun Quan.
They are biological siblings.
But how long has it been since the three brothers and sisters have been able to face each other like today?
The soldiers of the Chu army did not lack the courage to fight bloody battles, and they also lacked the tenderness of iron-bloodedness. No one could bear to disturb this moment, and they were filled with joy, happy for Sun Ce and happy for the three brothers and sisters. At this moment, the joy of surviving the disaster surged into my heart again, making it difficult for people to distinguish between these and those.
"Reporting to my lord, the second army division has led its troops to retreat here, and Liu Bei is pursuing them."
The scouts coming from the messy battlefield at the rear interrupted the scene and brought Sun Ce's consciousness back to the battlefield.
"Uncle Huang, lead 10,000 people and me to meet Gong Jin. The others will organize the battlefield and build a temporary defense line here."
"Take orders!"
"Take orders!"
Zhou Yu and Zhao Yun led the remaining remnant troops back one after another, and no one could block Sun Ce's return south. The Chu army was finally able to escape the trap woven by Wei and Xu Han.
The huge building boat slowly crossed the river, and the Chu army's military flags roared in the river wind. The fluttering flags were all dotted with bloody stars.
Once they calmed down, all the pain climbed up their bodies, and the soldiers leaned tiredly against the cabin and fell asleep.
Sun Quan brought a large ship with a capacity of 60,000 people, but when he returned, it was almost full of 30,000 people. The large ships one after another seemed empty everywhere.
When the blood of fighting on the battlefield dissipates, when the joy of escaping from life dissipates, what is left in this body?
Ji Shu couldn't explain his current mood, and what he tried to say was empty.
Sun Quan brought reinforcements from Jiangdong, and also brought follow-up news about Shouchun - Shouchun City was lost, Zhou Tai died in Pengcheng, and the entire Huxiao camp was annihilated.
Sun Ce didn't speak. He just stood at the front of the ship. No one could see his expression at this moment.
The short Yangtze River and its shallow banks have returned to Qu'a Port in just a blink of an eye.
Back to Jiangdong!
The soldiers came off the surrounding ships one after another, but Sun Ce stood motionless on the bow.
"Lord?"
The people around him couldn't help but called him worriedly, and then they saw Sun Ce walking off the boat in a daze.
Ji Shu knew what he was thinking, he must be thinking about Xiang Yu.
Back then, there was a small boat parked in front of him with a few soldiers beside him. Why did Xiang Yu refuse to return to Jiangdong? I'm afraid no one feels the same way as Sun Ce at this moment.
Sun Ce stepped onto the land of Jiangdong, and then his legs weakened and he knelt on the ground.
"Lord!"
The generals were startled and just wanted to help him, but as soon as they stretched out their hands, they consciously stepped away. Sun Ce's whole body seemed to exude some kind of inexplicable aura, which made people stop and make them reluctant to get close.
Sun Ce raised his head and knelt there quietly, as if he had lost his soul.
"One hundred thousand soldiers! They entrusted their lives to me, and they followed me to conquer the world and quell the troubled times! However, before an inch of success was accomplished and an inch of land was not leveled, they died inexplicably."
Sun Ce asked, looking down at his hands in confusion.
"One hundred thousand soldiers, one hundred thousand elite soldiers! I only brought back more than 10,000 people! One out of ten! Nine deaths! This defeat is all my fault!"
"ah!"
Sun Ce angrily hit the ground with his fist.
"Lord!" "Lord!"
How could the soldiers dare to let him do this? Seeing this, they quickly stepped forward and worked together to restrain Sun Ce.
"Lord, don't do this! Don't do this!"
"The main blame for this battle is Liu Bei's betrayal. He used the pretext that my lord formed an alliance with Dong Zhuo and turned to Cao Cao to surround and kill our troops before the battle, with the intention of encroaching on our land of Chu. This kind of hatred will be repaid tenfold in the future! Why should my lord take all the blame? On yourself?"
Stop talking about it??????
Stop talking??????
Ji Shu and Zhou Yu were still standing on the boat, watching everyone trying to persuade Sun Ce. They tried their best to stop Sun Ce from venting his self-harm, but they could not take a step to persuade Sun Ce like everyone else.
Stop talking about it??????
Stop talking??????
What they said is not wrong. Liu Bei really wanted to get his hands on Chu's territory.
But, but, Liu Bei's excuse turned out to be true. Isn't that ridiculous?
Sun Ce really secretly formed an alliance with Dong Zhuo to deal with Cao Cao!
Hahaha~~
What the treacherous and greedy Liu Bei said was true. He was full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and spoke openly and fearlessly!
"This defeat is all my fault!"
Sun Ce couldn't stop crying. This was the second time Ji Shu saw Sun Ce cry, and the first time Sun Ce cried in front of everyone.
Ji Shu and Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce quietly, speechless.
Yes, this is Sun Ce's fault.
His mistake was not that he secretly formed an alliance with Dong Zhuo to give Liu Bei a talking point, but that he gave up his plan to pacify the world for personal vendetta! If a large army of soldiers pointed at Shuchuan, what would be the result today?
Sun Ce finally understood his mistake, and it cost him the lives of more than 80,000 soldiers. How could he not feel pain?
One thought can lead to eternal hatred.
This is his sin, and he can only live with this sin.
??????
It had been several days since we returned to Jianye City, and nothing special had happened. Cao Cao was still fighting bloody battles with Dong Zhuo in Wancheng and Luoyang, and Liu Bei didn't have the courage to cross the river at this time.
Everything was so peaceful.
The moon is as bright as jade, and it is difficult to tell whether there are clouds in the thick night. Only when dark clouds cover the moon will the traces appear.
Little by little, the bright moon passed through the dark clouds. It was unclear whether the moon was moving or the dark clouds were moving.
So quiet.
gorgeous.
Just like that, Ji Shu leaned against the window sill, drinking glass after glass of wine.
Are there any immortals in a war?
No!
Is there any way to win a war but never lose it?
No!
These are all things that should be taken for granted, so what else is there to worry about?
No need to think too much, just drink!
If one or two glasses of wine don't taste very good, just pick up the wine bottle and pour it in directly.
The spicy nectar covers the taste buds, passes through the throat, and burns the stomach.
Cool!
Delicious!
With a creak, the door was pushed open. Ji Shu glanced over and waved with a smile.
"Xu Tu, come on, come on, drink with me! Today's wine is not bitter, spicy, and delicious!"
Xu Tu walked quietly to Ji Shu's side. His right sleeve was empty and fluttered when the wind blew. This was Guangling Na who was injured in the last battle. From then on, Xu Tu had no choice but to leave the army. Ji Shu asked him to come back and serve as Yueying's bodyguard.
"Sir, you can't drink any more."
"Hehehe, this little wine is nothing. I'm not the second brother. It's still early."
Ji Shu smiled softly and drank another cup in a blink of an eye.
"Okay, since you're so good at drinking, I'll drink with you. You have a drink, and I'll have a drink."
A touching voice came from outside the door, making Ji Shu freeze.
Xu Tu sighed and walked out. Huang Yueying walked in with a round belly.
With a creak, the door was closed. Huang Yueying picked up a wine glass on the table and slowly walked to Ji Shu and handed it to him, indicating that he could pour the wine.
Ji Shu was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and he was completely sober from the wine.
The two were in a stalemate for a while. Yueying's eyes were full of blame, but she spoke softly.
"You three brothers are truly a man of virtue."
"??????"
"After being drunk for so long, it's time to wake up. Don't you still have a lot to do? Is this the end of it?"
"Finished?"
The veins on Ji Shu's hands were exposed, as if he was about to crush the wine bottle, he said with a ferocious expression.
"How could you let it go like this! No one can bully me like this without paying any price! No one!"
Looking at the roaring Ji Shu, Huang Yueying gently hugged him.
"Then do what you have to do!"
It smells so good!
There was a faint fragrance on Yueying's body, which made Ji Shu calm down and want to fall into a peaceful dream.
"I'm very happy that you can survive. I want to thank Zhou Tai."
Ji Shu couldn't help but hugged Yueying gently, buried his head in her arms, and locked his voice in his throat.
