Zhang Hong returned to Danyang.
Although Zhou Yu had received the news, he had not rushed back to Danyang from Wujun.
Wujun needed generals to guard it, and Zhou Yu couldn't get away at all.
Zhang Hong reported the detailed process of his trip to Nanchang to Sun Ce.
After hearing this, Sun Ce became furious and said: "According to their exchange method, the hard work of these two generations of my Sun family will be wasted.
There are so many officials and generals."
All left behind In the hands of Liu Yao and Tai Shici, the people they fell into our hands are all crooked melons and cracked jujubes, none of them are useful.
No, we can't trade with them like this.
If we trade according to their method, my Sun family will lose.
There will be no chance of success again.”
Zhang Hong thought for a while and raised his hands and asked: "I don't know how the lord wants to deal with this matter.
There must be a solution as soon as possible.
We can't keep the old lady and several young masters and young ladies in prison."
Sun Ce was furious: "I, Sun Ce, provided their family members with good food and drink, but they also imprisoned my family members in prison."
Zhang Hong said quickly: "My subordinates were still in prison when they went down.
After my subordinates' persuasion, they took my lord and General Zhou's family members to live in my lord's former residence."
Sun Ce was a little less angry, but still said: "No, I have to lead troops to rescue them."
Zhang Hong hurriedly pulled Sun Ce to persuade him: "My lord, you must not do it.
Your family is in their hands.
If your lord goes there with troops, it will probably cause misunderstandings.
It will be bad if they hurt your lord's family.
I suggest this."
Let’s get the family members back first, but then I still insisted on leading troops to attack, and my subordinates stopped trying to persuade me.”
Sun Ce thought it right and agreed to exchange the families of both sides first.
According to the agreement between Zhang Hong and Tai Shici, the lords of both sides would not come forward, and the exchange of hostages would be completed by their respective subordinates.
The hostage exchange took place in Lingyang City, which is currently controlled by Taishi Ci's side.
The hostage exchange took place five miles outside the city, and each party was only allowed to bring a hundred soldiers.
Both sides were very careful, fearing that they would be plotted by the other party, but this exchange went smoothly.
After all, the exchange was the family of their respective lords, and no one wanted to cause complications.
After exchanging family members, both parties breathed a sigh of relief.
This time Sun Ce did not listen to Zhang Hong's dissuasion, but led his troops to attack Lingyang without notifying Zhou Yu.
Sun Ce knew very well that if Taishi Ci did not return the officials and generals he captured, Sun Ce would not have enough officials and generals to govern and guard Danyang, Wu County and Kuaiji, and the officials he captured from Liu Yao were all Some officials have little talent, and these people cannot be loyal to him and serve him in a short period of time.
His most trusted civil servants Zhang Zhao and others, as well as veteran general Cheng Pu and other generals, were all in Taishi Ci's hands.
If he did not rescue these people, he would really have trouble sleeping and eating.
In order to fight against Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, Taishi Ci set up his home in Lingyang City.
This city is not big, but it is the city closest to Sun Ce's power.
Here, Taishi Ci has 12,000 men and horses.
It can be said that he and Liu Yao have most of their troops here.
Only seven or eight days later, Sun Ce led his men and horses to the gates of Lingyang City.
Of course, Taishi Ci would not let Sun Ce besiege the city.
In fact, even the 10,000 men and horses brought by Sun Ce did not have the strength to carry out a siege.
Sun Ce relied on his bravery and led his soldiers and horses to fight under the city.
He raised his spear and shouted at the city wall: "My dear Taishi Ci, do you dare to come down and fight Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong?"
Taishi Ci smiled and shouted: "Is someone else calling me Little Overlord, or is it you who calls yourself the Overlord?"
Sun Ce's face turned red and he shouted: "Whether it's someone else's name or a self-proclaimed one, do you have the guts to fight?"

"You think I, Taishi Ci, am afraid of you?"
Taishi Ci said after saying this, "Come here, order two thousand soldiers and horses and follow me out of the city to fight."
After the sound of a tong drum, the city gate opened wide, and Taishi Ci rushed out of the city gate with two thousand soldiers and horses.
Sun Ce did not wait for the opponent to form a formation, and then rushed towards Taishi Ci on horseback.
Taishi Ci was not afraid, waved back and asked the soldiers to line up, and then he rode towards Sun Ce.
Both of them were masters with guns, and the fight was extremely fierce.
The battle scene was surrounded by wind and sand, and the sound of weapons clashing could be heard endlessly.
The soldiers on both sides watched with fear.
The two fought for more than a hundred rounds without deciding the outcome.
They didn't feel any fatigue at all.
The more they fought, the more energetic they became and the more energetic they became.
Sun Jian stabbed Taishi Ci's horse.
Taishi Ci was willing to show weakness and stabbed Sun Ce's horse, but Sun Ce had to change his moves to block.
He had finally managed to get the horse to collapse, but he was stabbed to death.
It was impossible to get it, but Taishi Ci had no worries in this regard.
There were many good horses in the court, and he could get one at any time if he wanted one.
Taishi Ci flew over from the horse and knocked Sun Ce to the ground.
The two rolled on the ground several times.
Sun Jian grabbed the halberd on Taishi Ci's back, and Taishi Ci pulled out Sun Ce's hand.
The ancient ingot knife at the waist.
On the ground, long weapons were too restricted.
Both of them threw away their spears.
One held a Gudian sword and the other held a halberd and started fighting.
The killing was also inextricable.
From morning to noon, they both felt nauseous.
They were so hungry that they gave up.
"Stop, I'm hungry.
I'll fight again after eating wine and meat," Sun Ce shouted.
Taishi Ci snorted coldly: "I'm afraid you won't succeed."
The two of them mounted their horses and returned to their own formation, one with his troops back to the camp and the other with his troops back to the city.
The two men continued to fight in the afternoon and continued until dusk.
Again, there was no winner, so they each returned with their own troops.
After two battles on this day, both sides understood that they were matched against each other and would encounter talented people, and no one could do anything about the other.
Early the next morning, Sun Ce sent someone to deliver the battle invitation and asked Tai Shici to fight outside the city.
Since there was no winner or loser in the battle, the two sides fought in battle formation outside the city.
After receiving the battle notice, Taishi Ci looked at it, smiled, and said to Sun Ce's soldiers who delivered the message: "Go back and tell Sun Ce, I have city defense, why do you want to fight with him outside the city?
I'm not mentally ill, it's all for no reason."
I, Tai Shi Ci, can't do this if he loses too many soldiers.
If he, Sun Ce, has the guts, he will send his troops to attack."
The soldier took back the battle post and returned to the camp, telling Sun Ce exactly what Tai Shi Ci said.
Sun Ce was in trouble when he heard it.
It seemed that Tai Shi Ci was not easy to fool.
He was very smart and would not suffer any losses.
If we really want to attack the city, Sun Ce only has 10,000 men, while Taishi Ci has more than 12,000 men.
If we fight with a small number, we still have to attack the city.

No matter how hard we fight, we can't win this battle.
Only then did Sun Ce realize that it was too reckless to lead his troops out to attack Taishi Ci this time, but it would be too shameful to retreat in such a dejected manner.
Besides, there were still a large number of subordinate officials and generals in Taishi Ci's hands.
How could he do that?
Just returned in vain Sun Ce led his army back twenty miles to camp, and faced Taishi Ci in a stalemate, hoping to wait until Taishi Ci's flaw appeared.
Sun Ce was waiting for Taishi Ci to make a mistake, but others were trying to take advantage of Sun Ce.
Who was Yuan Shu?
Yuan Shu was originally attacking Liu Bei's general Guan Yu with his troops, but Lu Bu's sudden appearance not only eliminated Yuan Shu's advantage, but was also almost outflanked by Lu Bu from the right wing.
If he hadn't retreated in time, his retreat would have been cut off.
This made Yuan Shu feel aggrieved.
Two troops sent out failed to return, and Yuan Shu felt very angry.
No, he received news that Sun Ce led troops to sneak attack Danyang, beat Liu Yao away, and captured it again.
Wujun and Kuaiji, His mind became active.
This was the time when Danyang, Wujun and Kuaiji were most unstable.
Sun Ce had not yet established a firm foothold in Jiangdong.
If he sent troops to attack Jiangdong at this time, there was a high possibility of seizing Jiangdong's territory.
As soon as Yuan Shu was encouraged by his counselors, he couldn't bear it any longer.
He immediately appointed Ji Ling as his general and commanded 50,000 troops to garrison in Liyang.
He collected ships on the edge of the Yangtze River and prepared to cross the river to attack Jiangdong.
Sun Ce was thinking hard about defeating Taishi Ci when he suddenly heard that Yuan Shu was preparing warships by the river to cross the river to attack Danyang.
His expression changed drastically on the spot and he immediately ordered the entire army to break camp and set off back to Danyang.
Yuan Shu's army was watching across the river with great fanfare.
The people of Danyang and Wu counties, which had not yet completely stabilized, were panicked.
The officials were not interested in handling government affairs, and the soldiers who had just surrendered were also unsettled.
After such a big thing happened, Zhou Yu in Wu County couldn't sit still anymore.
He arranged for his subordinates to stay behind and rushed to Danyang with his own soldiers.
However, he heard that Sun Ce had led his troops to fight against Taishi Ci.
He was so angry that he was upset. table.
His temper was lost, but he could not turn a blind eye to Yuan Shu on the other side of the river.
He immediately organized troops to deploy defenses.
Soon, Sun Ce led his army back to Danyang.
After meeting with Zhou Yu, he was scolded by him.
Sun Ce also knew that his behavior was too reckless this time, and Zhou Yu would let him go as long as he apologized and admitted his mistake.
In order to better resist Yuan Shu's army, Sun Ce moved his headquarters from Danyang to Moling, and formed troops with Zhou Yu to fight against Yuan Shu's army.
There are soldiers patrolled by Sun Ce on the riverside day and night.
As long as Yuan Shujun makes the slightest movement, Sun Ce will know it immediately.
Although they had made sufficient arrangements, facing Yuan Shu's army with an absolute advantage in numbers, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were not sure, and even felt helpless.
They were prepared to fight with open fire, and they did not engage in conspiracy and tricks.
Zhou Yu's There is no good way to think of.
The two of them sat in the lobby and sighed.
Sun Ce asked, "Gong Jin, is there really nothing we can do?"
Zhou Yu shook his head and said: "There are not many ways to do it militarily.
The navy left by Liu Yao cannot be used.
The navy we trained was defeated by Taishi Ci in Chaisang.
We can only strengthen defense at the passes on land.

If we want In a head-on confrontation, they have 50,000 troops, but now we can mobilize at most 15,000 troops, which is more than three times our number.
This battle is not easy to fight, but it is not impossible at all."
Sun Ce immediately said: "If you have a way, just tell me quickly, why bother with me?"
