Chapter 416
Sun Quan was suspicious by nature, but at the critical moment of life and death, he didn't care about taking risks. Sun Quan grabbed the saddle tightly, first controlled the mount to retreat a few steps, and then flew forward longitudinally with his legs clamped on the horse's belly.

Gu Li stood by the side of the road and picked up his whip and whipped it violently, in this way to give Sun Quan's horses a boost.

I saw the war horse galloping on the bridge pier, suddenly jumped up on the edge of the broken bridge, and flew to the south bank with Sun Quan on horseback. At this time, He Qi, who received the rescue order, was leading his army.

Sun Quan rode his horse across Xiaoyaojin, overlooking the soldiers on the south bank for a brief moment in the sky, and at that moment he felt like flying.

The horse landed with one front hoof just on the bluestone, and the bluestone was blown extremely smooth by the river wind. The horse's center of gravity was unstable due to the slippery front hoof, and the moment it landed, the horse leaned forward and almost fell, and finally threw Sun Quan on the horse. go out.

Just like that, Sun Quan was thrown like a dog, and he fell to the ground with his face covered in mud, embarrassed to see anyone.

"My lord, are you alright?" He Qi hurried over to help him up.

Sun Quan stood up and patted the dirt on his body. He pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out that Gongmiao is here. What can happen if the horse stumbles? It's not so easy for Zhang Liao to capture me. If the bridge breaks, he's out of danger too?"

He Qi knelt down, cupped his fists and wept, "Your Majesty, as the master of the people, you should be cautious. Why are you cutting off the heir for us today? If the generals know this, they will not feel at ease. Once the lord is in danger of losing Jiangdong, I hope you will take this as a warning for the rest of your life."

"Today is my fault. I thought we were well prepared, and that Zhang Liao might not dare to chase after him. I never thought that. From now on, I will keep it in mind." Sun Quan lifted He Qi up and thanked him.

On the surface, Sun Quan spoke beautifully, but in his heart he complained that the generals were not active in attacking, and that they retreated faster one by one.

Seeing that there were still fighting on the other side, He Qi knew that there would not be too many people who could escape, so he suggested to Sun Quan: "My lord, you can go to the ship first, and I will stay here to meet the rear army. I wonder who is still fighting on the other side?"

"Yi Gong and You Ping are still on the other side, I want to stay here and wait for them." Sun Quan added in his heart that he got out of the car, and he did not know how many guards he had trained so hard.

"My lord just promised me not to take any risks," He Qi reminded.

Sun Quan glanced at the situation on the other side, then turned and left. Many Jiangdong soldiers had already jumped into the river because they knew how to swim, and Cao Junjun would never chase deserters who were swimming.

In the melee in the distance, Han Dang and Zhou Tai also gradually approached Xiaoyaojin. Looking at the situation, it was known that Sun Quan had escaped safely.

Because Zhang Liao gave the order to round up, Cao Jun's attention was all on Zhou Tai. Those soldiers who wanted to make meritorious deeds tried their best to stop them, and they kept calling Zhou Tai with long spears and short halberds.

Zhou Tai was covered in blood and shot several times, but he still refused to discard Sun Quan's helmet and robe. Fortunately, veteran Han Dang defended him desperately, and finally led him out of the siege to the river.

"The little lion bridge ahead is broken. You Ping quickly take off your armor, and I'll take you to swim to the other side." Han Dang had already begun to remove his armor while speaking.

"The armor can be taken off, but the helmet belongs to the lord." Zhou Tai hesitated.

Seeing this, Han Dang yelled angrily: "When is this? Take off my clothes and armor quickly."

Zhou Tai was startled when he heard that, then nodded and endured the severe pain to remove his armor.

During this period, two Cao soldiers chased after him, and Han Dang swung his knife to kill him directly. Then he jumped into the river with Zhou Tai and paddled with one hand to swim to the south bank.

When Zhang Liao rushed to the river, Han Dang had already swam to the center of the river with Zhou Tai in his arms. He glanced at the helmet and robe on the ground, and then told Cao Bing behind him, "Shoot me a volley of arrows."

Then the arrows flew towards the river like raindrops. The wind and water on the river were so strong that it was difficult for the arrows to hit the people in the water, but they couldn't hold back and shot too many, Zhou Tai's aching body became a target.

When Han Dang took him to the opposite bank, there were several arrows sticking out of Zhou Tai's back in a coma, and He Qi quickly asked someone to carry them away. As for the thousands of Jiangdong soldiers stranded on the north bank, he was not going to wait any longer.

The Jiangdong soldiers in northern Jinbei had no generals at this time, and the soldiers and horses on the other side gradually disappeared in front of them. When they were desperate, they had to kneel down and beg for Zhang Liao's surrender.

Zhang Liao Xiaoyaojin beheaded 5000 people, captured more than [-] soldiers from Jiangdong, and only a few hundred jumped into the river to escape. He also almost captured Sun Quan himself several times, and won a complete victory in the defense of Hefei.

On the way back to Hefei City, Li Dian traveled with the army on a wooden cart. The arrowhead on his lower back had been taken out, and he could not ride a horse until the wound healed after simple treatment.

Zhang Liao seemed rather happy because of his complete victory, and his relationship with Li Dian was greatly eased during this time.

"Fortunately, Mancheng's arrow didn't hurt deeply, otherwise we wouldn't have won this battle. If I had used more strength, maybe you wouldn't have been hit by the arrow." Zhang Liao looked a little regretful beside the carriage.

Li Dian shook his head lightly, "Who can guarantee that the general will not be injured? Why should General Zhang blame himself? But is the person who shot the cold arrow a stroke?"

"That man looks like a barbarian. I've seen him raise his bow several times. His riding and shooting skills are indeed very powerful. It should be a part of Han Dang's hometown in Liaoxi, but I have already asked someone to check it. The stroke will definitely vent his anger on Mancheng," Zhang Liao replied.

Li Dian smiled wryly and said, "It doesn't matter if Leng Jian is here or not, it's just a pity that 'Sun Quan' got away."

"I didn't expect Sun Quan to be so outstanding in martial arts, but he looks too old. Even if he doesn't die in this battle, he will be seriously injured." Zhang Liao analyzed with a frown, because he saw that the man in the river was covered in blood, and was eventually pierced into a hedgehog by arrows. .

While the two were talking, a lieutenant came over with a pawn. Seeing this, Zhang Liao asked curiously, "I asked you to investigate the purple-bearded man who shot the sniper. You brought such a man here?"

General Pi clasped his fists and replied, "General, you said that the purple-bearded man who shot the cold arrow is not Han Dang's part at all, and his identity may be."

"What could it be?" Zhang Liao was very puzzled.

General Pi pushed the surrendered soldiers behind him, pointed to Zhang Liao and said, "Come and tell General Zhang, who is that purple-bearded man who shot the sniper?"

The soldier swallowed his saliva, lowered his head and replied in a low voice: "He is the Lord of Jiangdong."

"What did you say? That's Sun Quan? Ah Ye." Li Dian turned over and sat up when he heard the shock, but the wound burst open because of being too excited, and the pain kept rolling down his forehead.

After repeated confirmations, Zhang Liao finally knew what he had missed. He and the purple bearded man even looked at each other a few times, and deduced that the golden helmeted general was not Sun Quan at all.

After knowing the truth, both of them regretted deeply. Zhang Liao regretted that he missed the great achievement of capturing the general, and Li Dian regretted that he was shot by such a waste.

Hefei was victorious, and the battle report was sent to Hanzhong by the fast horse.

Cao Cao laughed out loud after reading the battle report, and everyone in the hall didn't know what happened and didn't dare to ask.

"Why is Meng De laughing?" Everyone was silent, but Xiahou Dun couldn't hold back.

Cao Cao raised the battle report and said with a smile: "Gu once said in the past that he should be like Sun Zhongmou when he has children. It seems that this sentence is full."
