In this era, people describe children as extremely smart, and they will say that this child has the demeanor of Gan Luo when he was a child. After all, he is a legendary figure who became Prime Minister at the age of nine, so he will naturally be regarded as a myth.
Sun Quan was often said to have the style of Gan Luo when he was a child. This is really not just talk. He has read poetry and books since he was a child, and his literary talent is amazing. He began to go to war with Sun Ce at the age of fourteen, and he could provide some unique ideas from time to time. The insight made Sun Ce feel inferior.
When he was fifteen years old, Sun Ce worshiped him as the county magistrate of Yangxian. Needless to say, if it weren't for Gan Luo, Sun Quan's fifteenth county magistrate would probably have become famous for a while.
So when Sun Ce entertained guests later, he would often say to Sun Quan, Brother Quan, these people will be your subordinates in the future.
Sun Quan often used this to flog himself, and he was open-minded and eager to learn.
There is actually no problem with what Sun Ce said, but it is not easy for Sun Quan to really rise to power.
Apart from anything else, Zhou Yu could crush him in terms of prestige in the military, let alone Sun Ce.
In fact, he was quite helpless at this point. He was proficient in all of the Six Arts of Gentleman, and even Ma Zhong praised him for his extraordinary talent in shooting.
However, these skills are suppressed by Sun Ce's reputation as the Little Overlord, and are not worth mentioning at all.
The Sun family started with martial arts. Sun Jian led the Jiangdong children to become famous. When the eighteen princes rebelled against King Dong Qin, it can be seen that even Yuan Shao was willing to worship him as a vanguard.
Needless to say, Sun Ce had never lost a single battle before the Guangling battle, and he was known as the little overlord.
The light of father and brother is so dazzling. If you want to uphold your father's ambition and share your worries for your brother, this is a great opportunity to establish your authority.
He hoped that there would be a subtle flaw in Guangling City, a flaw that was not easy to see, and then it would fall into his eyes. In the end, this subtle flaw would be expanded infinitely and he would win a beautiful battle.
Just like Lin Mo.
Speaking of which, Lin Mo was only two years older than him, and he had always kept this in mind.
Sometimes I also think that my martial arts skills cannot surpass those of my father and brother. If I want to become more powerful in the military, I can only learn from Lin Mo.
That night, Lu Bu led his men to surround Xiao Guan. He made it clear that he would not let Lin Mo go, but he attacked regardless of the consequences. This scene was seen by the Jiangdong scouts.
Therefore, those words of "willing to fight to the death for Marquis Lanling" have also become Sun Quan's longing.
How he hoped that one day the children of Jiangdong would be like Lu Jun, shouting that they were willing to fight to the death for Sun Zhongmou.
Damn the visuals, just thinking about it makes people excited. I really don’t know how Lin Mo did it.
Sun Quan expressed envy.
However, Sun Quan was not someone who just envied without taking action.
For example, at the moment, 27,000 troops formed a long dragon heading towards Guangling, so he volunteered to be the vanguard, riding his horse at the forefront.
"Sir, you'd better go to the Central Army."
Han Dang's suggestion was not adopted by Sun Quan. He shook his head, "My father and brother always take the lead in fighting. I am still young and dare not not follow my father and brother's example."
Moreover, this trip is not to attack the city, but to strengthen the power of our army and gain insight into the defense of Guangling City.
Uncle Han doesn't think that a mere 6,000 soldiers and horses in the city dare to leave the city rashly, right? "
After saying that, Sun Quan laughed to himself.
Han Dang thought about it for a while and felt that it was indeed unlikely, so he didn't say anything more. He just asked people to urge the soldiers in the rear to move faster.
As the army advanced, the outline of Guangling City began to appear in the distance.
At the gate of the city, Lu Su and Chen Deng looked at the endless Jiangdong army and felt a little frightened.
According to Zhang Liao's idea, he waited for them to set up a stronghold and suddenly rushed to kill them, but they came directly to the city gate. What was their intention? They couldn't attack the city immediately, right?
Inside the city gate, Zhang Liao, Yu Jin and Xu Sheng were each riding a war horse, holding on to their weapons and getting ready to go.
The eight hundred guards behind them also had firm eyes and cold expressions. Everyone knew that not many people would come back alive from this battle, but no one had a fearful expression on their face.
If it must be said that there is, it would be forbidden.
In this team of more than 800 people, Yu Jin appeared quite uneasy.
I have been in the army for some years and have fought many fierce battles, but I have never done anything as ridiculous as today.
It's so messy, it's so messy.
Sun Quan had already led five thousand forward troops to the city. He looked at the city gate and sighed: "The city of Guangling is more than four feet high, and with six thousand soldiers and horses, it is enough to hold on for a life-and-death battle.
There seems to be no damage to the southern city wall, but I'm afraid it's hard to do anything about it. "
Han Dang nodded and agreed: "Young Master is right. The city wall in the Guangling area that is eroded by the river wind should be the northwest wall. When Lu Bu attacked the city last time, it was also in the north. I think the city defense there will be insufficient. "
"Then let's take a look." Sun Quan raised his whip and pointed to the west, intending to circle the city.
Han Dang shook his head, "Young master, it's better not to act rashly. Only when the Chinese army arrives can we take full measures."
As Han Dang, a veteran of his uncle generation, said this, Sun Quan could only be patient.
Inside the city gate, Zhang Liao pulled up the hooked sickle leaning on the ground. This action indicated that a shocking battle was about to begin. The breath of the eight hundred people was stagnant and they looked at him quietly.
Zhang Liao first looked back at everyone, then looked at Yu Jin and Xu Sheng, and finally, slowly raised his left hand.
The soldiers at the city gate had already taken down all three door bolts, holding on to the door knocker, and finally pulled the heavy city gate inward under the signal from Zhang Liao's eyes.
Sun Quan, who was still commenting on Guangling city defense with Han Dang and Ling Cao, was dumbfounded.
In fact, the five thousand Jiangdong troops arrayed behind him were dumbfounded. Why did they open the city gate?
Even before the two veteran generals Han Dang and Ling Cao could react, Zhang Liao had already galloped out, with Yu Jin and Xu Sheng on his left and eight hundred heavily armored guards holding various weapons behind him.
As they rushed out, five drums started beating at the same time on the horse trail at the city gate.
"Brothers, follow me and kill!"
Zhang Liao took the lead. When he was two feet away from Jiangdong's army, he pinched the horse's belly. Gray Shadow jumped with all his strength and took him into the formation. With a powerful hook and sickle, he swept across the entire army, killing the eight soldiers in front of him. Jiang Dongbing swept away.
Without waiting for them to replenish their positions, Gray Shadow continued to charge forward. Under Zhang Liao's swing, the hook sickle chopped down the three sergeants on the right to the ground. At the same time, he picked up a standing shield on the ground and smashed it directly to the left. It was two sergeants who fell to the ground and vomited blood.
"Master, retreat quickly, retreat quickly!"
This guy went crazy and actually rushed out on his own initiative. Even a veteran on the battlefield like Han Dang was stunned. He had never seen such a posture before. A few hundred people dared to defeat an army of 5,000 people.
Han Dang and Ling Cao were like this, let alone the five thousand Jiangdong soldiers. They were just following to explore the camp. They didn't think that the other side would dare to go out of the city to fight, let alone rush out with hundreds of people. Big mess.
Shengsheng Yiyijin and Xu Sheng also rushed forward before they finally reacted and shouted: "Kill the enemy! Kill them!"
Fortunately, after Zhang Liao rushed into the front line, he only broke out into an open space and did not pursue Sun Quan. Otherwise, with the distance between the two being less than three feet, Sun Quan would be in danger even with Han Dang and Ling Cao by his side.
Even so, Zhang Liao was like a ball of flame burning in the Jiangdong Army. His hook and sickle opened and closed, and no less than three people would fall to the ground with each pass.
"The thief will be crowned!" A Jiangdong deputy general rode his horse towards Zhang Liao. Zhang Liao did not retreat or dodge. Seeing that the distance was close, he raised his hook and sickle from bottom to top.
The lieutenant general was forced to tighten the reins, and raised his horse high. Before it could land, the gray shadow spiritually took two steps forward, the hooked sickle flashed past, and the lieutenant general's chest was filled with blood mist.
"Don't be chaotic! There aren't many enemies coming, so surround them! Where are the drummers? Beat the drums, beat the drums quickly to meet the enemy!" Han was worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield. He did not rush forward with a big hob, but raised his voice. He shouted and used his prestige in the army to stabilize the situation.
As the fourth general who followed Sun Jian to conquer the world, Han Dang's prestige was second only to Cheng Pu. The effect of such a shout did come out. Jiangdong Army began to stabilize and the war drums began to beat.
At that time, eight hundred personal guards had finally followed up. Zhang Liao tightened the reins upon seeing this, and the gray shadow rushed forward, his hook and sickle lurching left and right to tear a path.
He was like the arrowhead of an arrow, cutting out a point. The eight hundred guards behind him were responsible for expanding the point. They followed Zhang Liao, waving their respective weapons to chop, stab, or pick. Or slash, blocking Jiangdong's army who wanted to encircle them, and unable to get close.
Every time Zhang Liao, who was at the forefront, swung his sword, blood would fly everywhere, and his face, armor, and horse were stained layer by layer. Zhang Liao, who was getting more and more happy with the killing, could clearly feel the long-lasting dust in his body. His blood finally boiled again, so he shouted while killing:
"Zhang Wenyuan! Zhang Wenyuan! Zhang Wenyuan!"
In front of Zhang Liao's long sword, Jiangdong's army collapsed at the first touch. The killed armor was shattered into pieces and screamed repeatedly.
He just rushed into the enemy formation one man and one horse to clear the way in front. The hook and sickle weighing several dozen kilograms was flexible in his hands. If he got closer, no matter whether he was fighting back or defending, he would mercilessly harvest them.
Where Zhang Liao rode his horse, he left behind two rows of corpses and a field of blood.
At the same time, Zhang Wenyuan's voice resounded through the sky, making the eight hundred personal guards even more courageous. There was no hesitation at all. They were already extraordinary in skill and relied on wearing heavy armor. They even did not hesitate to use one sword for another to follow. Jiangdong soldiers cut each other down.
The value of 20,000 gold was reflected when Jiang Dongbing's ring-headed sword struck the heavy armor made of iron, leaving a white scratch. Even when the spear warrior sprinted, he could not penetrate the armor. Wei was overthrown to the ground.
Except for Han Dang who was able to chop down several people with the big hob in his hand, Jiangdong Army's attacks most likely failed to cause damage to the guards.
On the other hand, they fell one after another under various weapons. Even the shield soldiers failed to withstand the halberd attack of the guards.
The team of 5,000 people was actually cut through by the 800 personal guards led by Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao turned his horse's head, the ferocious look in his eyes was intimidating. He clearly had an absolute advantage in strength, but he was subconsciously retreating.
The military morale that had finally been gathered was shaken to pieces by his unreasonable charge.
"Hurry! Hurry up and go immediately to tell the Chinese army to speed up!"
Han Dang raised the big hob and shouted: "Master, hurry up, Ling Cao and I will intercept this beast!"
Zhang Wenyuan is a madman, no, these hundreds of people are crazy!
In this case, if Zhang Liao cannot be fought immediately and allowed to continue to charge, the morale of the army will inevitably collapse, and even more troops and horses will be of no avail.
Ling Cao accepted the promise and rushed towards Zhang Liao with Han Dang with his spear in hand.
Zhang Liao's charge this time not only brought the morale of the eight hundred guards to the peak, but also gave Yu Jin hope of victory. It could even be said to have subverted his cognition. For a moment, his chest was filled with excitement, and he held up his hands. Chang Dao followed Zhang Liao closely.
I thought that being captured by him was just a fluke, but now it seems that it is not the case. This man is really the number one warrior under Marquis Wen!
At the same time, Xu Sheng was riding behind him. When he was charging, he was close to Zhang Liao's left wing. Sometimes he cut out the iron chain sword in his hand, and sometimes he swept forward. He was extremely flexible and blocked a lot of trouble for Zhang Liao.
As far as martial arts are concerned, Yu Jin and Xu Sheng are both good players, but Zhang Liao is so dazzling that Han Dang Lingcao can't see the others and wants to quickly kill this thief general who calls "Zhang Wenyuan".
Zhang Liao, who was at the forefront, flashed his hooked sickle with a cold light and swept it across. Ling Cao raised his spear to block, but failed to catch it. The spear was swung away, but it was Han Dang's big hob that struck him to stop him. This blow.
The three of them were fighting together. Zhang Liao, who was one against two, was not afraid. Zhao Zilong was one against four in the enemy formation. At this point, when Zhang Liao was planning to take down Ling Cao, who was weak in martial arts, he was behind him. A big knife struck Han Dang.
It's forbidden.
Taking advantage of the charge of the war horse, the sword fell with great force, forcing Han Dang to give up besieging Zhang Liao and raise his sword to block.
Yu Jin's martial arts skills were not weak. He used the kite to turn over, the goshawk to pounce on food, and the dragon to go out to sea. He used three killing moves in a row, which made Han Dang retreat continuously and get out of the battle circle with Zhang Liao.
Ling Cao faced Zhang Liao, who was fighting fiercely, and was at a disadvantage. Under normal circumstances, he should avoid his sharp edge. It can be seen that the eight hundred personal guards are still behind. If they don't block the arrow, the Jiangdong disciples behind him may be defeated. The situation is to bite the bullet and fight Zhang Liao.
The swords and guns collided with sparks. Sergeant Jiangdong tried to sneak attack from the side, but was killed by Zhang Liao who swung away Ling Cao's spear.
After killing three spearmen, Zhang Liao suddenly let go of the hooked sickle he was cutting, and then he tightened his grip on the handle at the bottom of the knife. At this moment, the range of the long knife was expanded to the maximum. Ling Cao was so frightened that he immediately leaned back and pressed his back against the war horse. It looks like an iron bridge.
After the cold light passed by, he immediately stood up. Without raising his gun, a sharp knife passed by, and Ling Cao's head was thrown away, and blood spurted out from the cut.
Xu Sheng caught the fallen head and raised it high, shouting sternly: "We must win! We must win! We must win!"
Jiangdong's older generation of warriors died under Xu Sheng's sharp knife. Zhang Liao didn't feel that the opponent was taking credit, but laughed and said: "Okay! Wen Xiang killed well!"
Sun Quan, who was watching the battle from a distance, was horrified when he saw Ling Cao being killed, and shouted: "Ming Jin, retreat quickly!"
The general was killed, the formation was in chaos, and the morale of the army was shattered. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that Sun Quan would shout for gold.
What's more, the hundreds of people on the other side are all infantry, not cavalry, making it difficult to chase them down.
Dang Dang Dang~
The harsh sound of ringing gold replaced the sound of roaring war drums, and the Jiangdong disciples fled in panic.
Seeing this, Han Dang was unwilling to do anything but could only escape from the ban and fled on horseback.
