Chapter 516 Can You Bear the Consequences? Are You Worthy?

In Wu County, Sun Quan was sitting at the gate with a dark face, quietly waiting for Lu Xun's arrival, and the 13,000 cavalrymen who were withdrawn from the battlefield by Lu Xun were now waiting outside the city.

These cavalrymen who had just come down from the battlefield stood beside the war horses in an orderly manner, without saying a word.

The war horses seemed to feel this solemn atmosphere, and none of them snorted.

Soon, there were bursts of horse hoof sounds from the west, and when the horses finally appeared in sight, one of them went straight forward and soon came to the city gate.

The person who came was none other than Lu Xun who came to ask for punishment.

"Young Master! Why did you let the 17,000 cavalrymen in the city join the battle?"

Lu Xun's tone was still gentle until now. After all, the one standing in front of him was the young master, otherwise even if it was Zhou Yu and others, Lu Xun would be furious at this moment. For his own career, Lu Xun still tried his best to restrain himself.

"Lu Xun! I haven't asked you yet! Why did you take the initiative to lead only 10,000 people to fight Zhang Liao? And why did you withdraw the previous people after the people I sent arrived at the battlefield?"

Lu Xun was about to speak, but was interrupted by Sun Quan's words like a string of cannons.

"Ten thousand people have dragged Zhang Liao into the quagmire. In just a short time, nearly 800 people were killed. If you brought everyone, Zhang Liao would probably be destroyed by now! Or is General Boyan afraid that Sun Quan will die and you will not be able to continue to lead the troops? Are you going to be a deputy general under my brother again?!"

Sun Quan's words were heartbreaking. It was no longer limited to the blame for the war, but rose to the level of Lu Xun's ambition.

Lu Xun was furious at this moment and could no longer bear it.

"Sun Quan! If more people can defeat Zhang Liao, then he should have been defeated the first time when he had only 1,000 cavalrymen against your 50,000 men. And in the battle of Jiangling City in Xuzhou, with 130,000 to 10,000, why didn't he take Jiangling City, but suffered heavy losses instead?"

"Ten thousand people were able to fight back and forth with Zhang Liao, but 27,000 people couldn't? It's ridiculous!"

Sun Quan stood up suddenly. This boy who had always been gentle and elegant finally revealed the kind of hostility that was passed down in their Sun family.

"Even if you can't take it, it's because of your wrong command! After you withdrew these people, the number was even less than 10,000. Why did you still lose to Zhang Liao? Didn't you say that 10,000 cavalrymen were enough to fight Zhang Liao?"

Lu Xun was so angry at Sun Quan's words that he trembled all over. He wanted to explain to Sun Quan, but his pride as a famous general made him unwilling to bow his head.

"General Boyan, go and have a rest. I will be in charge in person from now on! General Boyan just needs to obey my orders."

"Aren't you afraid that you can't defend Wu County? Can you afford the consequences?"

Lu Xun gritted his teeth and said, while Sun Quan smiled contemptuously.

"Whether I can afford the consequences or not is not the point. What I know is that you absolutely can't afford it."

Sun Quan waved at Lu Xun and stopped looking at him. Instead, he waved at the cavalrymen who had just arrived behind Lu Xun and the cavalrymen who had been waiting outside the city.

"Everyone, after entering the city, drink a lot of wine and eat a lot of meat. Wait until tomorrow morning, and fight Zhang Liao again, and defeat the enemy all the way!"

The cavalrymen all became agitated when they heard this. Even as the most precious cavalrymen, they could not eat meat every meal, or even every month. Now that they have lost the battle, they still have meat to eat. How can they not be happy?

Some of them frowned. They were all Lu Xun's confidants. Seeing Sun Quan treating Lu Xun like this, they were naturally indignant. However, seeing that Lu Xun himself did not say anything, they could only swallow their anger and follow the cavalry army around Wu County and came to the cavalry camp in the south of Wu County.

It was late at night and the moon had quietly climbed up the treetops.

The military town had been recaptured by 10,000 sailors. After the food and grass inside were swept away, they emptied the military town again, leaving an empty military town for Zhang Liao and his men.

For a while, the situation in Yangzhou Wu County became more bizarre and unpredictable because of Sun Quan's arrival.

On the other side, in Jiangxia County, the night was dark. Gu Rubing, accompanied by Zhang Fei and three Bai Libing lieutenants, went to Sun Jian's camp.

In fact, Zhang Fei alone would be enough, but Zhang Fei was worried that the other side would rush out, leaving him no time to take care of other things, and then harm Gu Rubing, so he asked to bring these three Bai Li soldiers' thousand-man captains. These three thousand-man captains were all second-rate generals. Although they were not good enough, they could delay Zhang Fei for some time.

At that time, even if they really wanted to harm Gu Rubing, under the protection of the three people, they could give Zhang Fei some time to react, so that he would not be without any trump cards.

A group of five people, no, it should be six people, after all, Zhang Fei was still holding Sun Ce in his hand. The group went straight to the Jiangdong camp ten miles east of Jiangxia County.

The camp was brightly lit, and countless bonfires surrounded the fence of the camp. There were fire pots and burning bonfires, illuminating the entire camp. In the camp, there were countless soldiers holding torches and walking back and forth, showing the solemn atmosphere of the camp.

When Gu Rubing and Zhang Fei were still two miles away from the main camp, the cavalry patrolling nearby rushed forward and surrounded them, leaving only a gap in the front for them to pass through.

They just surrounded Gu Rubing and the others, chirping and saying something, but never took any other action.

Gu Rubing looked around at everyone with contempt.

"What's the matter? You dare to surround yourself but don't dare to take action. If you have the courage to take action, I will respect you as a hero. Now, hey, you are just a group of cowards pretending to be powerful!"

Gu Rubing's words were extremely provocative, and he almost said that he would hit me if I didn't obey.

If these people didn't come here under Sun Jian's instructions, then Gu Rubing wouldn't believe it anyway. This was obviously an insult to him, so how could he get what he wanted.

"Everyone, the reason why you don't dare to go up now is because my third brother is here? Do you think you are no match for my third brother? Hahaha, it doesn't matter, have you seen these three people behind me? They are my subordinates The three captains in the first battalion, all of you, as long as you are a first-rate general, can swarm up and try to surround and kill the three of them. I have absolutely no objections to your success, okay?"

As soon as these words were said, everyone present began to get excited. With so many people surrounding and killing three people, and there could also be military generals joining the battle, no matter what, they wouldn't be able to defeat three people.

Everyone, look at me and I look at you, no one dares to be the first to step forward.

"King Lie, who among us knows whether Master Yanzhou Mu will intervene."

One of the leaders shouted that although they were facing the enemy in battle, they still praised Gu Rubing and Zhang Fei for their official positions. After all, if Zhang Fei got angry, he would be able to twist off his head in just a few breaths.

Sun Jian asked them to come here to show off Gu Rubing's power, not to seek death.

"Hahaha, my words are hard to follow. As long as you don't have someone above the first-class generals to take action, then my third brother will never take action."

"kill!"

As soon as Gu Rubing finished speaking, the person who asked the question shouted "Kill", then took out two spear heads from his waist and threw them out. He also waved the spear and charged towards the three of them.

Gu Rubing smiled slightly, finally being fooled.

"Three of you, I leave it to you."

The three people behind him grinned.

"Lord, leave it to us."

The three men clapped their horses and then began to charge forward. One person moved forward slightly, and the other two followed closely. The three actually formed the simplest cavalry formation and began to charge.

There were hundreds of people surrounding them, including four second-rate generals, who were obviously here for them.

There should be no surprises in a battle between three people and hundreds of people, with such a huge disparity in combat power.

And the fact is indeed the case. There was no big surprise, it was just that the results were reversed. The three of them killed hundreds of people and cut off the heads of the four second-rate generals with their own hands.

The battle ended quickly, only taking about a quarter of an hour, because the three of them were really brave. The three of them lined up and charged, giving each other's backs to each other, and charged into the crowd like horns. In the middle, they no longer move. Taking advantage of the spear, one person is responsible for one enemy, which can not only effectively prevent the enemy from sneak attacks, but also ensure that their own combat power will not be wasted.

In this way, the three of them survived the repeated attacks by hundreds of people from the other side, and completely wiped out each other.

Only two first-rate generals were left standing there, watching this scene blankly. These two were Zhou Yu's lieutenants. They had followed Zhou Yu on the battlefield for many years, but they had never seen anything like this.

Three little-known captains were able to withstand the attack of hundreds of cavalry. I am afraid not many people would believe this. After all, the opponent was not a long-established general, but just a subordinate of Gu Rubing. Just a captain of thousands.

"You two are still here, do you want to fight with my third brother? These three brothers of mine can't be bullied by you two. If you two are still interested, let my third brother play with you two?"

Gu Rubing was not the kind of person who spoiled children. Seeing the two of them about to burst into flames and almost eating the gazes of the five of them, Gu Rubing moved Zhang Fei out without hesitation. Such a legendary general was here. How can I still suffer a loss by my side?

Zhang Fei didn't waste any time. He held Sun Ce in one hand and a spear in the other. He rode up to Gu Rubing, raised his spear and pointed it at the two of them.

"Either get over here and let your Grandpa Zhang stab you to death with a spear, or get out of the way like a dog and don't get in the way!"

Zhang Fei's mouth always only curses the simplest words, but his attack power is often surprisingly high. After Zhang Fei yelled like this, the two first-class generals whose faces were about to disappear into the night could only turn around and leave even if they were unwilling to do so. .

What else can you do if you don’t leave? Is it really necessary to try it out with Zhang Fei? Isn't that just looking for death? They haven't lived enough yet.

Sure enough, just as Gu Rubing expected, the next two miles went smoothly and they arrived at the camp. At the entrance of the camp, there were several people guarding the door, as if they knew that no matter how many people were guarding, they would not be able to escape. It was no use, there were only a few people at one gate.

"Prince Lie, I have offended you, please put your weapons here."

A man who looked like a school captain came forward tremblingly and said with trembling voice. He wanted to die in his heart at this moment. Why would he send a little guy like him to disarm him? Isn't this a joke?

Zhang Fei stepped forward and stood between Gu Rubing and the little boss.

The tomb-like eyes widened and looked at him fiercely, with undisguised murderous intent in his eyes.

"See who this is?"

As Zhang Fei spoke, he raised Sun Ce in his hand so that the people guarding the camp could see clearly, and at the same time, he rewarded Sun Ce with a hand knife.

This means that Sun Ce is already a legendary general. Otherwise, with Zhang Fei's style of fighting, he would probably be beaten to death along the way.

After seeing their young master being held by the opponent's hand, everyone was shocked and speechless, including the two first-rate generals who had just besieged them and survived. Their expressions also changed drastically. They were just trying to stop them, but they actually They didn't notice that the person Zhang Fei was carrying all the time turned out to be their young master.

The two knew the stakes involved, and waved to the gatekeepers to signal them to let them go. At the same time, they came to the front from behind Gu Rubing and the others. They had to report this matter to Sun Jian as soon as possible.

Sun Jian invited Gu Rubing here precisely because he had Huang Zhong in his possession. Unexpectedly, Gu Rubing not only came, but also brought their young master.

After Gu Rubing and his party leisurely arrived at the place that Sun Jian had prepared early, Gu Rubing couldn't help but chuckle.

On the empty land of the racecourse, a pavilion was suddenly erected, and the appearance of the pavilion was exactly the same as the last time Gu Rubing and Sun Jian had a conversation around the stove while making tea.

"Quite vindictive."

Gu Rubing chuckled and walked straight into the pavilion.

In the pavilion, Sun Jian had been waiting here for a long time. At this moment, his face was so gloomy that he was almost dripping with water.

In addition to Sun Jian, there were several people standing in the pavilion, including Zhou Yu, Gan Ning, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and even Cao Zhang. Beside Gan Ning, there was a general who was also in a coma. It was Huang Gai. Loyal.

However, Huang Zhong was obviously not like Sun Ce. The person who was knocked unconscious by Zhang Fei looked more like someone who had endured tremendous torture and passed out due to exhaustion.

"Please take a seat."

Sun Jian just glanced at Sun Ce, and then restrained himself from looking at him.

Seeing Huang Zhong's appearance, Gu Rubing felt an unknown fire surge in his heart, without even looking at Sun Jian.

"Who do you think you are, worthy of sitting with me?"

Sun Jian was stunned when he heard this, as if he didn't expect that Gu Rubing would be so disrespectful to him. He was about to get angry, but he saw Gu Rubing holding his precious son behind him in one hand, and holding a eight-foot-long snake spear on the ground in the other. Zhang Fei's anger went away on his own.

"Prince Lie, isn't it because I asked you to come here today to resolve the misunderstanding between us? Why bother?"
