The moon stars are scarce, and the frogs chirp and the insects chirp.
Because of the fires everywhere, the land of more than 150 miles from Huai'an to Rong County has been deserted, and the people in the villages and towns have all abandoned their homes and fled to the direction of Cangwu, that is, there are still residents in Rong County, Bushan, Alin and other county seats.
Zhao Yun, Cheng Yanjin, and Yang Youji led 500 cavalry, escorted Sun Quan and Huang Gai for more than an hour, drove more than 80 miles, and did not even see a single figure.
"Damn, it was calculated by Zhang Zhao, an old horseman, one hundred and fifty miles from Huai'an to Rong County, if the White Snake Ridge was in the middle of the two, it should have arrived a long time ago.
Pinch your fingers and calculate, let's walk at least more than eighty miles, I haven't even seen a figure, as far as I can see, just turn around and go back, so as not to fall for Zhou Yu's tricks" Cheng Yanjin walked a little impatiently, blowing his beard and glaring.
Sun Quan listened to Cheng Yanjin's words, and his eyes were anxious: "I have an appointment with General Kong Ming, how can I walk forward for a while without faith, and maybe I will meet the people under my command." ” Zhao Yun knew that the princess from the Peacock Dynasty was very important, because having her would allow the Han to have a strategic ally and relieve the pressure of enemies on all sides, and it could even be said that this woman called Cleopatra was more important than Yang Qilang.
"Sun Quan is in our hands, I'm not afraid of Zhou Yu's deception, I'll go ahead to find out the news" Zhao Yun instructed Cheng Yanjin and Yang Youji to lead the team to escort Sun Quan and Huang Gai to walk slowly behind, and he went to the front to spy first, and then made a decision before it was too late.
Before the words fell, Zhao Yun shouted, and the jade unicorn under his crotch shot out like an arrow from the string, and soon left the team behind.
Riding a horse and whipping for more than ten miles, Zhao Yun found a bare hill, swaying white under the light of the bright moon, vaguely able to see the crowds on the hill, the war horses neighed from time to time, a rough estimate, about five or six hundred horses, presumably this is the people and horses who came to exchange Sun Quan.
Zhao Yun hid in a hidden place and observed for a while, but found nothing suspicious, then turned his horse back to find Cheng Yanjin and Yang Youji, and ordered: "Sun Quan's troops are waiting for more than ten miles ahead, and you escort Sun Quan and Huang Gai to the front with me, and return General Yansi and Princess Peacock." ” Cheng bit Jin and scolded: "Zhang Zhao, this old thing is cheating, it is clear that the White Snake Ridge is between Huai'an and Rong County, let's go forward for more than ten miles, almost two-thirds of the way, but it is cheaper for Zhou Yu, a traitor."
In my opinion, let's not leave here, send someone to inform the Sun family soldiers opposite, if you want to change, bring someone over, don't change and pull down" Zhao Yun soothed: "It's okay to walk more than ten miles or less than ten miles, you don't have to worry about it, it is imperative to smoothly change back General Yansi and Princess Peacock." ” At that moment, Zhao Yun was leading the way, Cheng Yanjin and Yang Youji escorted Sun Quan and Huang Gai to follow, and the five hundred cavalry marched forward in formation, heading straight to the White Snake Ridge and swept away.
On the White Snake Ridge, more than ten miles away, Zhou Yu personally went out, took Zhou Dong, Zhou Dewei, and Zhang Zhao to lead five hundred henchmen and cavalry, and quietly concealed Pei Xingyan, Yue Ji and other Guishan generals, and came to the White Snake Ridge as Zhang Zhao said, waiting to exchange prisoners with the Han army.
And Wu Yunzhao was stabbed by Zhao Yun, and he was afraid that he would not be able to recover in a month, so he could not accompany him.
"Peacock princess, it's really a good means, Zhou Yu is so convinced, there is nothing to say" Looking at the empty post road north, Zhou Yu sighed helplessly.
Since Zhang Zhao came back from the negotiation and said that Zhuge Liang asked to exchange Yang Yansi and Cleopatra for Sun Quan and Huang Gai, Zhou Yu knew that he had been deceived by Cleopatra.
But the wood is already in the boat, and Zhou Yu has no choice but to obediently send the person back, missing the great work in hand.
Although Sun Quan's prejudice against Zhou Yu became deeper and deeper, Zhou Yu knew that he had to do his best to assist Sun Quan for Sun Ce's sake, and the so-called appointment of Sun Yi as the lord was just a negotiation rhetoric, and he would never take this step unless he had to.
The Guishan civil official, who was bribed by Zhou Yu to act as a translator, immediately translated Zhou Yu's words to Cleopatra, and Cleopatra smiled triumphantly after hearing this: "You didn't lose to me, but to your own demons. ” After a pause, Cleopatra said: "Since these days, I have admired Zhou Dudu's way of using troops, in our Peacock Dynasty, you are definitely one of the best handsome talents, why do you want to succumb to the Kushan, lead the foreign race to attack your own country, why don't you repent, turn against the battle, and bury the Kushan army, so that you may be able to atone for your sins." ” Zhou Yu's face was like frost, and he said coldly: "I can't turn back, and my heart doesn't allow me to turn back."
"How do you say this?"
Cleopatra puzzled.
Zhou Yu's tone was a little resentful: "I am a brother and sister with Bo Fuqing, he died at the hands of Liu Wei, I must avenge him, fulfill his long-cherished wish, and let the Sun family achieve the cause of the Five Tyrants" "Haha, this may be your own idea," Cleopatra let out a sneer, sneering at Zhou Yu's words, "Do you think Sun Bofu's long-cherished wish is to use the iron cavalry of the alien race to achieve the cause of the Five Hegemons, do you think Sun Bofu will be proud of you under the Nine Springs, stop deceiving yourself, our Peacock Country often says that the bitter sea is boundless, and the back is the shore, I advise you to rein in the precipice as soon as possible."
"Shut up" Zhou Yu was furious, raised his hand and slapped Cleopatra, "Everything I do is for Bo Fu, no matter what way I use, as long as I can make the Sun family become a hegemon, I think Bo Fu will definitely smile Jiuquan." ” "The Han army is coming" Zhou Tong, who was looking ahead, whistled to warn, and Zhou Yu immediately ordered Zhou Dewei and the soldiers of the whole army to cheer up, be careful of the Han army's deception, and no longer bother with Cleopatra.
The Tao is not the same, she doesn't know what it means to be a confidant to die, and she doesn't understand that the mountains and rivers meet the bosom friend, her biggest wish in this life is to realize Bo Fu's long-cherished wish, so that the Sun family can become a hegemon, so that under Jiuquan can he stand up his chest and say to Sun Ce, "Bo Fu, I have lived up to your expectations" Soon, Zhao Yun led five hundred horsemen to sweep over, and the two sides shot their own positions, confronting each other from a stone's throw away.
After a few simple opening remarks, Zhao Yun drank Ling Yangyouji and Cheng Yanjin to push Huang Gai out, and said loudly: "Let's release people at the same time, neither side can cheat."
Zhou Yu didn't talk nonsense, waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Dong and Zhou Dewei to push Yang Qilang and Cleopatra out, untie the ropes, and let them walk towards the array of the Han army.
On the Han army's side, Cheng Yanjin and Yang Youji also untied the ropes that bound Sun Quan and Huang Gai and let the two go back.
One step, two steps, three steps Yang Qilang and Cleopatra walked side by side to the Han army, and the oncoming Huang Gai was half a position behind Sun Quan, always vigilant, loyally protecting the young lord.
The two sides each walked forward sixty or seventy steps, Sun Quan happened to pass by Cleopatra, looking at Cleopatra's playful smile, Sun Quan was angry from his heart, and suddenly an arrow rushed towards Cleopatra, intending to hold this woman hostage, first catch her back, and then say, you must not lose so much "Brother, shoot Yang Yanhei" Seeing Sun Quan's sudden move, Zhou Yu hurriedly commanded Zhou Dewei.
With a "whoosh", Zhou Dewei bent his bow and arrows at the fastest speed, and shot an arrow at Yang Qilang's back.
As long as Yang Qilang is knocked down, Sun Quan and Huang Gai will be able to control Cleopatra, and this transaction will be a big victory, allowing Zhuge Liang to lose the princess and the general, and let out the evil anger in his heart.
"Hehe, he actually released an arrow" Yang Youji let out a contemptuous mockery, and after Zhou Dewei's arrow was distracted, he bent his bow and pulled the bowstring like a full moon.
Zhao Yun and Cheng Yanjin were not in a hurry to make a move, they knew how earth-shattering Yang Guerrilla's archery skills wept ghosts and gods, and one arrow could shoot through seven layers of armor, which was simply the reincarnation of Yang Yuji.
Zhou Yu actually ordered Zhou Dewei to release a dark arrow, which was simply an axe for the class and humiliated themselves, everyone didn't have to do it at all, and Yang Guerrilla would teach them to be people When Zhou Dewei's arrow was about to hit Yang Qilang, it collided head-on, sparks flew everywhere, and the two arrows broke at the same time, and then fell to the ground.
Yoyuki's movements were as swift as a ghost, and after the first arrow was fired, he fired a second arrow at Sun Quan's back with lightning speed, intending to protect Cleopatra.
Because when he came, Zhuge Liang repeatedly told him to protect the safety of the Peacock Princess no matter what, which is related to whether the Han Dynasty can have an ally that fights side by side.
At the critical juncture, Yang Yuji didn't have time to think about it, and ran towards Sun Quan's back is an arrow.
The arrows from the string shot with the sound of the wind, like lightning and flint, and there was nowhere to escape from heaven and earth.
"The Lord Gets Out" Huang Gai, who had been following Sun Quan, saw that Yang Yuji's arrow was coming quickly and quickly, roared, and knocked Sun Quan away with his body, saving Sun Quan with flesh and blood.
With a loud "duh", the arrow shot by Yang Yuji with all his strength pierced Huang Gai's back, penetrated the heart, and pierced out from the front chest, and the powerful force made Huang Gai's bones make a breaking sound, which was especially clear in the night, making people feel creepy.
"Old master, Huang Gai has tried his best to die as he deserves" The white-haired Huang Gai roared, spat blood from his mouth, fell to the ground, and closed his eyes.
"Sun thief, dare to deceive" Yang Qilang was furious, a hungry tiger pounced, grabbed Sun Quan's shirt and lifted him above his head, and was about to fall down hard, only to scare Sun Quan into shouting "help" At the critical moment, Zhao Yun rushed out and took over Sun Quan from Yang Qilang's hands, saving one of his lives.
Just because Zhuge Liang has already used a divisive tactic against Sun Quan, wouldn't it be a waste of his previous efforts to throw him to death now Sun Quan was lucky to save his life, and he was so frightened that he sat on the ground with a face as pale as dirt.
And Zhao Yunzao escorted Cleopatra and Yang Qilang back to the Han army camp, whistled, and led the five hundred Han troops away. t1706231537:
