Silver Fox of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 209 The Swimming Prince Sun Zhongmou

On July [-]th, early in the morning, at the first moment of the eclipse, white mist rose on the Qingshui River.

The tumbling river water rolled up the waves, and the saplings in the river were slapped to the shore.

Although the surface of the Qingshui River is not as exaggerated as the Yangtze River, it is more than one mile or two miles wide at the wide part and more than 200 meters at the narrow part.

The Lingyang section happens to be relatively moderate, with a width of more than 300 meters, especially when the tide is still high recently.

Therefore, Shen Chen asked the soldiers to cut down a lot of wood these days, and connected them together with ropes, wooden rivets, and rattan, and used a large boat to block the river.

Soldiers coming and going inside and outside the city kept coming and going, and they carried boxes of supplies to the ship, mainly bows and arrows.

As one of the three supply points in the rear, Lingyang not only has more than 20 stones, grain and grass, but also a lot of bows and arrows.

After staying in Lingyang for nearly 20 days, Shen Chen decided to set off again for Yi County.

In the past few days, he and Zhou Yu have been in constant correspondence, discussing back and forth where the hostages should be exchanged.

After several "friendly consultations" and "in-depth exchanges of mutual opinions", the two sides finally "reached an agreement" and completed the "win-win cooperation".

Under Shen Chen's insistence, the two sides must exchange hostages in Yi County.

As for Zhou Yu, naturally, after several "deliberate considerations" and several "strong objections", he finally couldn't hold back his thighs, and "reluctantly" agreed to this condition.

After all, for him, putting the hostage exchange in Yi County was the best choice.

Once Huang Zu was used to exchange Sun Quan and Zhang Hong back, he would be able to immediately order a general attack. In this way, the Lv Meng army who cooperated with Yunxi would definitely wipe out the support troops sent by Shen Chen and Liu Pan.

So in this kind of tacit understanding between the two sides, they also began to make arrangements for each other.

The inside and outside of Lingyang City was busy.

After breakfast, Sun Quan and Zhang Hong were also pulled out. Under the escort of the soldiers, they left the county government mansion and arrived at the wharf outside Lingyang City.

After being imprisoned for nearly a month, Sun Quan's complexion deteriorated a lot. At first he looked like a high-spirited rooster, but since he was singled out by Shen Chen for a good beating, he seemed to be slack, with no fighting spirit.

But after seeing Zhang Hong, he immediately cheered up.

At this time, several large boats had parked on the pier, and many soldiers were walking to the boats, taking their positions under the command of generals at all levels.

"Father."

When Sun Quan saw Zhang Hong, he hurried over and saw that his complexion had changed a lot, and he was very worried.

He still respects Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao from the bottom of his heart.

"Xuan'er."

Zhang Hong glanced at him in relief.

During this period of time, they had been detained separately and met very rarely, which made him worry all night long.

Fortunately, seeing each other again today, both of them have nothing to do, so they are at ease.

"It's really a father-son relationship."

Wearing an armor, Shen Chen appeared in front of the two with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zigang, there is good news. Sun Quan plans to exchange your father and son with General Huang Zu. We are going to Yi County soon, and we will exchange protons there." .”

"I hope General Shen can keep his promise."

Zhang Hong said in a deep voice: "You can reach Poyang from Yi County going south. Presumably Liu Pan in Nanchang has already sent someone to meet you at this time."

Shen Chen nodded and said: "That's natural, so let's invite you two to board the boat."

"Why are Xuan'er and I not in the same boat?"

Zhang Hong noticed that the soldiers apparently wanted to separate them and put them on two ships.

Shen Chen explained: "To be on the safe side, we should score the points."

"Then can't we have two rooms in one ship?"

Zhang Hong asked.

Shen Chen shook his head and said: "No, in order to prevent accidents, we have to be on two separate ships, but sir, don't worry, after Yixian County, Zhou Yu will bring General Huang Zu over to exchange father and son with sir, and you will meet again."

Zhang Hong said calmly: "You guys haven't sailed yet, and the old man and Xuan'er haven't seen each other for a long time, so we stand together at the pier and wait for a while, chatting, it should be okay."

"this one"

Shen Chen looked around, there were countless soldiers and horses on the left and right, and there were dozens of guards around them guarding them, and it was impossible for them to escape, but for the sake of safety, he said: "Yes, but Henry Zhang must be tied up."

"Come on."

As soon as Zhang Nan, the deputy general beside him, waved his hand, two soldiers came up and tied Henry Zhang's hands like handcuffs.

Sun Quan and Zhang Hong looked at each other, and Zhang Hong shook his head slightly.

After tying them up, Shen Chen told the surrounding soldiers who guarded them: "Let them sit here, and watch closely."

"Yes."

The soldiers agreed with a loud bang.

Shen Chen turned around and left, busy with his own affairs.

After waiting for him to leave, Zhang Hong whispered to Sun Quan, "Xuan'er, how are you doing these days?"

"Father Lao is concerned that everything is fine and they did not abuse the children."

Sun Quan replied.

"Well, then I'm relieved."

Zhang Hong deliberately said: "It seems that Marquis Wu still misses the old man, so he is willing to exchange Huang Zu."

Sun Quan said: "It's all because of my father's high morals, and because Marquis Wu has always been respectful and respectful to his father."

"I hope everything goes well with this proton exchange."

"Isn't Liu Pan here to meet Shen Chen? Zhou Dudu will not act rashly in comparison."

"Speaking of which, it's kind of weird."

"What's so strange?"

"Shen Chen and the generals around him are all wearing battle armor."

Zhang Hong said in a low voice.

"Battle armor?"

Sun Quan was shocked when he heard this sentence.

Sailors rarely wear armor.

Because fighting on the surface of the water, if you are not careful, you will fall into the water.

After entering the water, the armor weighing more than ten or twenty catties will turn into a deadly sinking stone.

Therefore, no matter how good the water quality is, sailors will choose light clothes.

They are going to take a boat now, even if they want to fight, they shouldn't wear armor.

So this can only mean one thing - the opponent is ready to go ashore to fight!
"Could it be."

Sun Quan muttered softly.

Zhang Hong sighed, "I'm worried too, I should be more careful."

"Ah."

Sun Quan nodded.

The two chatted about other things for a while.

After about two or three quarters of an hour, the Jiang Xia navy finally withdrew from Lingyang City.

Zhang Hong and Sun Quan were taken into the front and rear two big boats respectively.

"Go in!"

Sun Quan was taken into a room at the bottom of the cabin, and the soldiers pushed him in violently.

"hateful."

He staggered a few steps and almost fell because his hands were tied.

Just as Sun Quan turned his head to scold the soldiers angrily, the soldiers slammed the door shut.

Sun Quan cursed secretly, and only then did he look around and take a look at the surrounding environment.

This is a torture room at the bottom of the bilge. It is not completely sealed. There is a ventilating window of a small size. Light comes in from the window, illuminating the entire room.

There is nothing else in the room, just a bed and a toilet. Obviously, being a prisoner doesn't have to think about how well you can live.

Sun Quan walked to the side of the ventilation window.

He noticed that the columns on the window were made of wood, not iron bars. Obviously in order to prevent him from escaping, his hands and feet were tied up because the wooden windows might not be able to stop him.

"Humph."

Sun Quan snorted coldly, thinking that Shen Chen thought there was nothing he could do if he was tied up?

Then he sat on the ground and groped his feet.

These days he was not noticeable either, and accidentally found a small dagger under the bed in the backyard of the county government mansion where he was being held.

Although he didn't know where the dagger came from, he hid it cleverly.

At this time, he was locked in the bilge, so he immediately began to grope.

After a while, the small dagger he hid in the shoe was taken out. The dagger was about the length of a person's middle finger, and the handle was very thin. It was not so much a dagger as it was a sharp file.

He held the dagger upside down with both hands, and began to cut the rope that bound his wrist. After less than 20 seconds, the rope fell to the ground.

After regaining his freedom, Sun Quan immediately walked to the door and carefully listened to the movement outside.

There was no sound outside.

If you look from the window, the boat is still sailing, because there is fog on the river, you can only feel the bumps of the boat, but you don't know where you are.

So Sun Quan went to the window again, clutching the rope in his hands and covering his hands, so that if someone came in suddenly, he could pretend to be still tied up.Secondly, he has other uses for this rope, preventing others from jumping into the river from hearing the movement.

What he didn't expect was that things were going very smoothly. When he cut the wooden pillar with the dagger, no one outside disturbed him at all, and the sound of the boat sailing on the river also covered the sound of him cutting the wood.

In less than a quarter of an hour, he cut off the wooden pillars on the window. Sun Quan moved the bed to the window, tied the legs of the bed with ropes, and then stood on the bed and began to climb out of the wooden window.

He was extremely tall, and it was still very difficult to climb through the wooden window. It took a lot of effort to get out.

The fresh and free air outside made Sun Quan full of energy.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that the boat was floating mightily on a lake as vast as the sea, and the shore was not far away, less than twenty or thirty feet away.

Sun Quan began to climb down along the ropes on the window, and slowly came to the bottom of the boat, where oars stretched out from the holes on both sides of the boat and rowed continuously.

He was imprisoned in the second cabin, and the third cabin was where the sailors rowed.

In order to avoid these oars, Sun Quan moved his body with difficulty, finally slowly dipped into the water, and finally let go of his hands gently.

The whole person fell gently into the lake.

The boat sailed at high speed on the lake, and after only a moment, it was already a hundred meters away.

Sun Quan, who dived into the water, did not emerge from the water until there was no movement above his head, looked at the direction where the big boat was leaving in the distance, a contemptuous smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then crawled towards the shore.

Although he is the lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan had many other interests before inheriting the position. Not only did he like hunting, but he was also very good at water. Swimming would not be a problem for him.

Soon he climbed to the shore. At this time, he was already very embarrassed, his whole body was wet, and his body temperature dropped rapidly.

Sun Quan looked around and saw that the surrounding forest was dense, the shore was lush and green, and it was still raining lightly.

For a while, I shivered with cold.

But in order to avoid being discovered by the enemy, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and use both hands and feet, and climbed into the forest.

Stumbling all the way, covered with a lot of mud, like a savage in a mess.

Sun Quan didn't know where this place was, but he only needed to know one thing - that is, he could return to Lingyang by following the direction the ship came from!
So without hesitation, he got into the forest and headed north along the coast.

　Outrageous, it puts pressure on the author every day.Some people say that the protagonist was calculated by Lu Su, and the image of a wise man is not good.However, Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi sometimes plot against each other, isn't their image of a wise man not good?

　　In wars, things like the right time, place, and people are all about harmony. In the battle between Lu Su and the protagonist, Lu Su had the upper hand. If the protagonist was in the city, Lu Su would not be able to fight. Lowering one’s wits, but I’m writing group portraits, the IQs of the main characters and supporting characters are all online, and it’s interesting to fight each other’s wits and courage, so it’s impossible for me to lower my intelligence for Lu Su. If readers ask me to lower my intelligence, I’m sorry, I can’t do it.

　　Another thing is about Sun Quan. Some people said why they didn't ask the captured soldiers to ask Sun Quan.

　　First, the protagonist does not know that Sun Quan is in the city, so of course it is impossible to ask Sun Quan inexplicably if he is in the city.

　　Second, it is also said in the book that the soldiers protecting Sun Quan are the most loyal Sun Jiajun, and their family members are all in Jiangdong. Did they betray Sun Quan because they didn't even want their family members?

　　So the protagonist didn't ask, and the captured soldiers didn't say, which is the most logical, otherwise Lu Bu almost captured Cao Cao, why didn't the people around Cao Cao betray him?

　　Also, everyone complained about the release of Sun Quan. Just kidding, if you catch him once, you can't catch him a second time. Wouldn't it be good to slowly humiliate him?
　　Finally, there is the question of the family. This is even more outrageous. Where did the family come from in the deep mountains and old forests in the southeast hills? At least I checked a lot of information, but I didn’t find any traces of the family. They are all from Shanyue.

　　To sum up, there are answers in the book for what you think is unreasonable. I hope you read the book carefully and don't keep putting pressure on the author.
