Johime Three Kingdoms

Chapter 55 Zhang Xun's End
"Asshole! Why are the water thieves so bold? There are [-] of us... we still have at least a few thousand people, right?" Zhang Xun wanted to cry.

"I don't know what kind of water pirates they are, it seems... they all have them! Some are hung with brocade sails, some are hung with cloth sails, some are hung with black tigers..." The messenger replied tremblingly under Zhang Xun's red eyes and eager gaze. .

"Are they all here? Damn it! Could it be that these bastards were subdued by Baitu?" Zhang Xun is not stupid at all.

A few months ago, Han Yin suggested to Yuan Shu that he should collect water thieves on the Yangtze River. As long as Yuan Shu nodded and approved the financial and official positions, he could go to lobby, but... with Yuan Shu's background, he looked down on these people at all and ignored Han Yin. Yin’s proposal.

But Zhang Xun didn't take it seriously before. He never thought that these water thieves would dare to fight with them!
Unexpectedly, he has already been recruited by Baitu and met him at this stall...

"I'll go out and talk to them!" Zhang Xun finally regained consciousness at this critical moment.

Standing on the bow of the ship, Zhang Xun used the external broadcast function of the armor and shouted: "Fellow heroes! Are you here to vote for my lord, General Yuan?"

Yuan Shu is now nominally the General Zuo of the Han Dynasty.

"Hahaha, Zhang Xun, you claim to be a 'general', can't you even see the current situation?" Gan Ning said with a smile.

Although Zhang Xun's side has more people, if they really fight on the river, how can they, the defeated army, be the opponent of these water thieves who are soaked in the water?

"The person here is Gan Ning, the thief of Jinfan? My lord has always loved talents. You only have to escort me for this journey. Are you afraid that you will have no future in the future? My lord is the fourth and third prince in Huainan. Isn't it difficult to live a life of mere wealth? The white picture of his name?" Zhang Xun shouted.

Next to Gan Ning, an uncle who had just changed his career said with some emotion: "General Gan, I think..."

Gan Ning did not answer first, but then he pulled out a folding bow from the waist of his armor, and instantly unfolded it into a bow. Then Gan Ning pulled the bow and drew the arrow, and a bright red laser arrow crossed the river. fell onto Zhang Xun's boat.

Zhang Xun quickly took a step back, almost sitting down, and on the deck just under his feet, the arrow collapsed into a small hole...

"I don't want you to feel it, I want me to feel it." After Gan Ning had ejaculated, he turned to Dub who had just "suggested".

"Yuan Shu, the fourth and third generation of the Yuan family, has always claimed to be a high-ranking official. How could he care about people like us?" Jiang Qin said to smooth things over.

At the same time, Gan Ning's arrow seemed to be a signal, and soon several troop transport ships began to make ding-ding-dong-dong sounds from the bottoms of the ships...

"No! General, there is a thief of water ghosts below!" A soldier with good water skills said quickly to Zhang Xun.

"Set arrows, shoot them all! Shoot them to death!" Zhang Xun said angrily.

Apart from shooting arrows, Zhang Xun had no other choice. Not only was he unfamiliar with the command of surface battles, but the soldiers he led were not trained in water warfare...

Zhang Xun's thousands of remnant troops were defeated and could only fire arrows staggeringly on the water. Gan Ning's side had too many tricks, from water ghosts to simple horns on ships, to various ships equipped with The bridge plank used for docking battles, and the winch hook used to pull the opponent's ship!

Although they were at a numerical disadvantage, landlubbers like Zhang Xun did not form an effective counterattack at all in front of their bandits.

Normally speaking, in the Jianghuai area, the manpower "recruited" and "trained" by the navy have good talents - this is related to the folk customs and physique of the people in the military source area. The efficiency of navy training in the northern troop source is very low. .

It's just that Yuan Shu's army obviously has not been trained in water warfare. Facing the thieves who have been roaring proudly in the Yangtze River all year round, the feeling of powerlessness they felt outside Qu'a two days ago once again reappeared...

"General, we can't fight, leave quickly!" The soldiers urged Zhang Xun to escape.

Zhang Xun was stunned on the deck, and said with a dead heart: "Let's go? Can I go?"

Only a black shadow was seen in the distance, rushing towards him like a running bull!
Because they were already in the chaos, even the gilded armor could not fly directly. They could only use the force to jump on various ships along the way.

At this time, both sides were small boats, and everyone else on the deck was swaying when black-armored Zhou Tai stepped on them.

And there was no one else in his eyes, and he went straight to Zhang Xun...

When I think about myself being judged in the future, I will not remember the Huainan general, but I will clearly remember him... Zhang Xun, outside the city of Qu'a, in a battle of ten thousand against four thousand, he lost. Not only did he lose, but he also lost. Sent an ambush, not only sent an ambush, but also lost the ambush!

In the end, he fled to the river like a bereaved dog, but died at the hands of water thieves...

Such a record can leave a mark in history, right?
For a moment, Zhang Xun felt sad and struggled to stand up. He only felt his chest and abdomen churning, and he actually vomited blood...

After throwing away the soldiers who were trying to pull him away, Zhang Xun drew his sword and put it across his neck, saying shyly: "What else is there, what face is there?"

This time Zhang Xun committed suicide by committing suicide. At the same time, the remnants of the Huainan army had completely collapsed before he died... In fact, there was no formation!
And because it is on the river, there is very little room for "scattering" after "collapsing". Except for some generals who are proficient in water, or are clever enough and lucky enough to escape by boat in the last night before dawn, other soldiers Either he was captured, or he was fed to the fish...

After the shouts of killing died down, Gan Ning saw the tall Zhou Tai coming back carrying Zhang Xun's body like a chicken. He couldn't help but frown and said: "Just cut off the head, why did you bring it back whole?" "

"I didn't kill him. He committed suicide and was buried ashore." Zhou Tai curled his lips and said.

Who told him not to be fast enough?He got the opportunity to kill the general with good wine and Gan Ning...

But taking credit for someone who committed suicide... Zhou Tai couldn't do such a thing.

"How about you add two more? I'll tell you that I saw you kill them with my own eyes!" Gan Ning didn't have any integrity in this regard.

Zhou Tai rolled his eyes at him and ignored him.

One day later, Gan Ning and others appeared outside Qu'a City. When they learned that Gan Ning had brought back nearly [-] prisoners, Bai Tu was surprised and went out of the city to greet him.

When they saw Bai Tu come out in person, Jiang Qin and Zhou Taixin were already half relieved - before, they both called them "Bai Gong", unlike others who already called them "Lord" under Gan Ning's kind guidance.

Gan Ning didn't say much about this, and he understood that the last hesitation in their hearts was nothing more than Bai Tu's attitude.

"Xingba! Hahaha, I didn't expect you to give me such a big surprise this time!" Bai Tu came up to him with a smile and patted Gan Ning's shoulder.

"Hey, it was Zhang Xun who was just unlucky, and he happened to fall into our hands." Gan Ning said in a tone that seemed modest but actually showed off.

Bai Tu shook his head and said: "Just Zhang Xun, if you die, you will die, if you escape, you will escape. The surprise I am talking about is these two generals..."

He had known from the letter before that Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were also in Gan Ning's surrender sequence, and they were specially wearing battle armor at this time. How could Bai Tu not recognize them?
Hearing Bai Tu's obvious wooing, Gan Ning's eyebrows trembled in discomfort, but he still endured it and looked at Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin again... Sure enough, they had "fallen"!
