Zhu Huan was older than Sun Song and considered the issue more comprehensively than him. He did not agree with Liu Dun's view that it was easy for a general to catch a tiger, and he said that although Lan Yuan was not as outstanding as Lan Ji, he was by no means comparable to ordinary people.
There are not many generals available under Lu Fan's account. Since Sun Song personally requested the army, Zhu Huan, as the head general of the Jiangdong gentry, naturally cannot be timid.
The two agreed on the order in which they would go out. Lu Fan nodded with satisfaction and commanded the army to press forward slowly.
The two armies formed a formation under the city of Yichun. The Soochow soldiers who had originally braced themselves up felt ashamed after seeing the trapped troops.
Lu Fan and the generals were all amazed, thinking that this was the legendary team, and it really looked different.
Cheng Zi had experience in confronting the trapped troops near the Dongting during his second attack on Jingzhou.
At that time, Cheng Zi had experienced the power of this army, so he quickly leaned over and reminded Lu Fan: "General, the trapped army is very strong in the wild. Although we have 40,000 to 50,000 people, we may not be able to take advantage of it. It is better to adopt the method of Mr. Ziren. Liu Dun's schemes are complicated."
"I know it well." Lu Fan nodded slightly, and then asked Zhu Huan: "The young man in golden armor in front of the enemy's formation is very eye-catching. Does Xiu Mu know who he is?"
"It's Lanyuan." Zhu Huan answered with his fists clasped.
Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh: "It is said that when Liu Bei married his daughter, he gave Lan Yuan a set of golden armor and helmets. This little thief is really dazzling when he wears them. He doesn't know how talented he is."
"Never mind how capable he is, I will come forward later and invite him to fight. If Lan Yuan is too cowardly to challenge, he will be despised by the trapped troops. If he dares to come out to challenge, I will kill him for the general."
Sun Lin's armor was a gift from Sun Quan, but the quality and style were much worse than Lan Yuan's. At this time, it didn't matter who the other side fought, he would be the first to fight.
After Sun Song finished speaking, he was about to rush out with his gun. Zhu Huan and Lu Fan reminded him almost at the same time: "Zi Qiao, be careful."
"Two generals, please rest assured, I will not embarrass my father." Sun Song jumped on his horse and left without looking back.
Lan Yuan sent Chu Qing in front and asked disdainfully: "You are at the end of the road, why don't you quickly dismount and surrender? Those deserters who knew the current affairs last night are now well fed and drunk in the city, but the food is limited, so surrender early and be full." "
"You bastard, don't try to deceive the soldiers and ask me to surrender unless I die." Sun Song pointed his gun at Chu Qing and shouted loudly.
Chu Qing was startled when he heard this, and then sneered: "Looking at your young age, you have a lot of character. You can leave your name first. If you die by my gun later, you can have a private grave."
"Hmph, who do you think you are? Are you worthy of competing with me, Sun Song? Call Lan Yuan out quickly, don't be shy and hide behind." Sun Song looked at the back of the formation and mocked coldly.
Chu Qing suddenly laughed: "So he is a descendant of the Sun family. Sun Quan's son is not that old, right? So you don't need to be so pedantic. Do you know Sun Lin, Sun Gongda? We can easily defeat Chai Sang. He contributed a lot and contributed a lot. Since you are not Sun Quan’s biological son, there is no shame in surrendering. Besides, you have never fought against me, so who gave you the courage to challenge General Lan?”
Chu Qing's words were like a thunder, exploding directly in the Wu army formation, because they proved that Chaisang was indeed lost, and the culprit was Sun Lin.
Did the Sun family themselves vote? So why do outsiders still resist?
"Shut up, Sun Neighbor's seller seeking glory is really hateful, but he is not of the same lineage as me and the King of Wu. He is too soft to control. Again, you are not qualified to fight with me. Call Lan Yuan out quickly." Sun Song bared his teeth. The grin was ferocious.
"Uh" Chu Qing has never seen anyone rushing to death, or is Sun Song really the 'divine general' of Jiangdong?
"Chu Sima, go back and take command for me. I'll show you Sun Song's methods." Lan Yuan rode up on a white horse.
"Wei." Chu Qing clasped his fists and accepted the order. He gave Sun Song a cold look and turned to leave. He said in his heart, don't just talk hard.
The two looked at each other in front of the battle. Sun Song was in his early twenties and was actually only a few years older than Lan Yuan, but he looked very mature.
On the other hand, Lan Yuan inherited his father's facial features and mother's skin color, so he has a beautiful face, fair complexion, and tall stature. He is a standard handsome man.
After reading it, Sun Song secretly shook his head and thought to himself, isn't this the white-faced scholar? Are you still pretending to hold the Fangtian Halberd? See if I don't beat the shit out of you in a while.
"Are you Lan Yuan? Look at this pretty face, he is indeed more suitable to be a consort than your brother." Sun Song deliberately mocked.
Lan Yuan retorted even more harshly: "Have you met my Ji brother before, and you still come out to die on your own initiative? With such a bad mind, I'm worried about killing Jiangzhi."
"You have to earn your reputation by yourself. How dare you borrow my brother's name? If you can survive from my gun today, you will be recognized by me." Sun Song continued to talk shamelessly.
Lan Yuan was very happy to hear this, and thought, "I need your approval?" So he smiled and teased: "You are so loud, I don't know what your skills are. You are closer to Sun Lin and Sun Quan than Sun Quan. Could it be that you are the son of Sun Ce or Sun Yi? Those two people were short-lived. They are about the same age as you now."
"Lanyuan, you dare to insult my uncle and father. I will poke seven or eight holes in you today."
Sun Song was enraged, and he immediately raised his spear and mounted his horse. Lan Yuan concentrated on holding his halberd and rushed forward. The soldiers in front of both sides shouted loudly, as if they were going to overthrow the sky.
At this moment, Lu Fan even closed his eyes. He kept begging for God's blessing in his heart, because only if Sun Song defeated Lan Yuan could the current decline be reversed.
In addition, Ding Feng on the city tower watched the battle with great interest, with a very relaxed expression on his face, which puzzled Luo Tong next to him.
"Brother Chengyuan, why aren't you worried at all? Sun Song is the best in martial arts among the descendants of the Sun family. General Lan shouldn't be so reckless. If something changes, what should we do? We have no way out."
Luo Tong was three years younger than Ding Feng. He thought that there were not tens of thousands of cattle and sheep outside the city. If anything happened to Lan Yuan, Yichun would immediately be in crisis.
Ding Feng smiled and said: "What does Gongxu think of Ding's martial arts skills?"
"Brother Chengyuan is superb in martial arts and is ranked among the best in the entire Jiangdong." Luo Tong nodded in compliment.
"Haha, the person you mentioned as the top one cannot survive in the hands of General Lan. If he hadn't been merciful in the first place, how would I have been able to defend the city with you? I estimate that he is even stronger than Sun Bofu." Ding Feng shook his head slightly.
Luo Tong's eyes widened, "So powerful? I thought you were captured because of being a young soldier."
"Gongxu might as well count and see how many rounds Sun Song can last." Ding Feng looked at the city and signaled.
Luo Tong nodded, "Okay, I'll count them. They moved."
After a moment, Ding Feng turned to look at the astonished Luo Tong and asked with a smile: "How?"
"It's really well-deserved. It's only been two rounds." Luo Tong swallowed his saliva. He had never seen this scene in Jiangdong. The rising star of the Sun family was killed by Lan Yuan so quickly.
Sun Song was killed in two rounds. Lu Fan and others were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that there were two "monsters" in the Lan family. Anyone who challenged them to a duel would be killed. The morale that Wu Jun had finally gathered collapsed at this moment.
Before Lu Fan could make any arrangements, Lan Yuan raised his bloody halberd and commanded the trapped troops to start attacking.
Five thousand people attacking close to 50,000 people?
Lu Fan was sure that he was right. He hurriedly asked the generals to command the battle. However, the trapped troops were like steel behemoths, and the Wu army almost collapsed in response to the battle.
The trapped troops stopped after three miles of cover-up. More than 40,000 Wu troops were killed and their armor was thrown off. There were countless surrenders and escapees in the valley.
The commanders of various battalions in Soochow gathered up their soldiers as they fled, but when they finally counted their numbers, they found that there were less than 20,000 left.
At this time, Lan Tian led his troops from Pingxiang, successfully crossed the mountains to the east, and appeared behind the Wu army with flags fluttering.
