The Three Kingdoms Voyage

Chapter 161 Set sail, although there are tens of millions of people, I will go

Cui Qian looked at Sun Shao who was calm and composed in front of the battle, his face was so gloomy that he could drip water.He doesn't believe that Sun Shao can capture Xijuan City. Although Xijuan City is not a big city, there are 2000 people guarding it. For this small city, 2000 people are enough to deal with a siege that is two or three times larger. Sun Shao's direct descendants There are only 2000 people. I have never heard that 2000 people can capture a city guarded by 2000 people, unless the opponent is an idiot.

Is Li Jing an idiot?Cui Qian didn't think so.Rinan County is a long and narrow area, not more than a hundred miles wide from east to west, but more than a thousand miles long from north to south. To the east is the sea, which is a paradise for pirates. To the southwest, across the Changshan Mountain, is where Funan Kingdom is located. Li Jing can live in peace with these barbarians , naturally has his means.

Such a person led 2000 people to defend the city. If Sun Shao had 2000 people, he might still have a chance, but now he only has [-] people. In Cui Qian's view, this is simply a dream.

"This scorpion is kind." Cui Wu praised the big mouth while supporting the knife with one hand.

"Do you have the guts?" Cui Qian laughed disdainfully: "If life is gone, what kind of guts are there? He thinks he is really the overlord Xiang Yu, and he can count as ten with one? 2000 people attack the city, let's see how he ends up."

Cui Wu glanced at Cui Qian and rolled his eyes: "Do you think he has no chance to win?"

"Do you think there is a chance?" Cui Qian squinted at him and asked back with a sneer.

"Jianzhong, do you still remember the time when you single-handedly entered the pirate's lair on Giant Turtle Island?" Cui Wu said lightly, "At that time, who believed that you could come out alive? Who believed that you would become the leader of the South China Sea?" Pirate King?"

Cui Qian was taken aback for a moment, Cui Wu inadvertently uncovered a corner of his dusty memory.In the 13th year of Jian'an, his father Cui Yu was killed by an arrow while fighting with the pirates of Giant Turtle Island. The pirates under him were frightened and fell apart. Everyone, including Wu, opposed it, thinking that it was no different from sending him to death.But he didn't hesitate, and went to Giant Turtle Island with the spirit of going to the giant turtle island. In a bloody battle, he single-handedly killed the pirate leader of Giant Turtle Island, beheaded more than [-] pirates, and surrendered. More than [-] people, and most of those [-] people are now his hardcore.

The situation at that time was very similar to that of Sun Shao in front of him.

"If he really has this ability, I, Cui Qian, will only obey him in the future." Cui Qian said calmly with the corners of his mouth crooked.

Su's thick legs and thick eyebrows were furrowed, looking at Sun Shao not far away for a while, and looking at Cui Qian on the other side for a while.Both worried about Sun Shao and hesitated.He also had no hope for Sun Shao's siege, but he was not worried about Sun Shao's life. What he was more worried about was that if Sun Shao failed, he was afraid that the South China Sea that had just been pacified would cause trouble.And once Sun Shao lost his strength, the pirates from the East China Sea would have no good end. It would not be easy to travel thousands of miles and return to the East China Sea.It can be said that although he has strong ships and guns, at most half of his men can return to the East China Sea. If nothing else, where does he get the luggage?
His fate was tied with Sun Shao when he accepted Sun Shao's ship.

So he was even more angry at Sun Shao's recklessness.

However, he also knew that if Sun Shao didn't take the gamble, he would be caught in a dilemma, and all previous successes might be wiped out with this failure.

"General, we can't just watch like this." Wei Ping reminded: "Cui Qian wants to read the general's jokes, we can't do that."

"I tried to persuade him, but he didn't listen." Su thick legs said sullenly: "I want to help, but he doesn't allow it, he has to bear it alone. After I have said it, if I go to help again, I'm afraid it will make Cui Qian feel uncomfortable. It's a joke, but it's not good."

"General, we don't have to go into battle in person." Wei Ping said softly, "We can attract some of the defenders and share their pressure as long as we put on a stance on the other side. As long as we make a stance, Cui Qian dare not remain indifferent , he can also attract part of the defenders, so that there will be fewer enemies facing General Fubo."

"Is that so?" Su Chuke hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Let's do it this way, it's a little bit of our kindness."

Wei Ping took the order and hurried to make arrangements.He ordered people to push the baggage cart to the front of the formation, the archers lay behind the baggage cart, ready to shoot, and the other infantry stood behind, in a posture of climbing the city and attacking.Li Jing in the city didn't dare to take it lightly when he saw it, and immediately increased the defensive force on the opposite side of Su's thick legs.Cui Qian saw that Su's thick legs made a feint attack, hesitated for a moment, did not dare to say nothing, led people to form a formation in the west of the city, and Li Jing also mobilized some people to defend in the west of the city, only in the west of the city. The southern city where Sun Shao was going to attack had left a thousand men. In his view, Sun Shao had less than 2000 men, and without siege equipment, a thousand men would be enough to defend.

Half an hour later, Sun Shao returned to the front of the formation. He was wearing heavy armor, with a ring-sword stuck in his waist, and stood majestically in front of the three hundred warriors he had just picked out.Shuai Zeng was holding his pocket-handle, and Chen Hai was holding his three-stone bow, standing upright behind him.

Sun Shaochang took a deep breath, looked at the three hundred expressionless strong men in front of him with as firm eyes as possible, and waited until they all looked at him in silence, then he shouted loudly: "Who can tell me who is the most powerful cavalry in the world?" ?”

Of the 150 strong men, more than 80 were the elites given to him by Guan Yu, more than 70 were warriors who followed Gan Ning to attack Cao Ying, and 300 were the latest fierce soldiers he picked out.They are all veterans who have experienced many battles. Although they feel that attacking the city with [-] people is a dead end, but for them, life and death have long been ignored, and their mood is not too turbulent.It's just that when I heard Sun Shao's question at this time, I was a little confused.

"No one knows?" Sun Shao smiled, hands behind his back, and circled back and forth twice in front of the formation.

"General, the most powerful cavalry in the world are tiger and leopard cavalry." A man in the formation shouted.

"That's right." Sun Shao nodded, and continued to pace calmly, "The tiger and leopard cavalry are known as the world's famous cavalry, and they can indeed be called the most powerful cavalry in the world. I heard that every warrior of the tiger and leopard They are selected from among the centurions, and each of them enjoys the treatment of a captain, which can be said to be one in a million. Then, who can tell me, who is the strongest navy in the world?"

This time without too much hesitation, the 300 people shouted in unison: "We!" The pride was beyond words.

Sun Shao smiled, and stretched out his hand to signal for everyone to be quiet: "You are right, we are the most powerful navy in the world, and this is beyond reproach. In our eyes, the Yizhou Navy, Yangtze River Navy, and Qingxu Navy are nothing more than a Dish."

"Hahaha..." The three hundred men burst into laughter.

"Then... who is the strongest pawn in the world?"

Everyone was silent, and after a while, a voice said: "It's the camp that fell into that year."

"No." Immediately, someone retorted: "It's the sword and shield hand of our Guan family."

"And—" Before the words finished, someone retorted loudly: "It should be the personal guard battalion of our General Zhechong."

"I don't think it's right. It's the Tiger Warrior Camp under Cao Ying Huhou."

"What kind of tiger battalion? It means he didn't meet us, otherwise he would be beaten to death."

Sun Shao raised his hands and signaled the people who were holding on to their own opinions to be quiet. The people who were arguing immediately quieted down and looked at him with burning eyes, hoping that his answer would become Sun Shao's final answer: "Yes, what you said is falling into the camp , Guan Family Sword and Shield Hand, and General Zhechong’s personal guard battalion are all powerful infantry, in addition, there should be Zhang Liao’s [-] pieces, but these people are not the most powerful infantry.”

"Then who is it?" a fierce soldier shouted.

"Do you know why I only pick 300 people?" Sun Shao shouted.

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads again and again.Sun Shao now has 2000 men who can be deployed. According to common people's opinion, the current military strength is already insufficient, and betting on all 2000 men may not be able to win. It is undoubtedly irrational to choose only 300 men to attack the city.They didn't understand Sun Shao's insistence on picking only 300 people. Now that Sun Shao mentioned this issue, they all pricked up their ears and listened to see what Sun Shao's purpose was.

"In the far west, there is a small country called Sparta, and there is a super powerful country called Persia. Persia has an army of one million, and it can almost dominate the world. However, Sparta only sent three hundred warriors. The million-strong Persian army was defeated at Thermopylae Pass. Gentlemen, are such pawns the most powerful pawns in the world?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one didn't think it was a lie, 300 people defeated a million army?This is a myth, right?

Sun Shao looked at them with a smile: "I know, you can't believe this is the truth, but I can tell you clearly that it is the truth. After this battle is over, I will sail west and take you to Wenquan Pass Go and see and listen to their heroic deeds. But..." He suddenly shouted sharply, his face that was as gentle as a spring breeze just now suddenly became extremely ferocious: "Today, we will make those 300 people into the past, we will make them Look at everyone, we are the most powerful infantry in the world. Among you are the sword and shield fighters of the relevant family, the personal guard battalion of General Zhechong, and the most powerful navy in the world, but from now on, you are not the most powerful pawns in the world. The sword and shield hand of the family is not the personal guard battalion of General Chaochong, nor is it a navy division, but me, the sharpest sword in the hands of General Fubo Sun Shao. You will start to become famous all over the world from this small city of Xijuan During the conquest, you must make the warriors of the Tiger camp, the trapped camp, and Sparta bow their heads, and you will become the nightmare of any enemy, and you will become the most powerful infantry in the world. Do you have confidence?"

A series of roars shocked everyone. After a brief silence, Ding Feng was the first to draw out his sword and shouted: "I will follow the general to the death."

"Follow the general to the death—" 300 people roared in unison.

"Destroy Xijuan City and become the most powerful pawn in the world." Chen Hai raised his sword and roared.

"Destroy Xijuan City and become the most powerful pawn in the world." The 300 people roared in unison with red eyes.

Sun Shao was very satisfied. With a wave of his hand, Zhao Xiu pushed out a hundred or so barbarians from Linyi Kingdom who had just been captured a few days ago, and lined up under the city.When Li Jing saw it, he couldn't help feeling flustered, these people were all from Lin Yiguo, how did they fall into Sun Shao's hands?Could it be that Ou Chu was defeated by Sun Shao?

"Soldiers in the city, listen up, these are rebels from Xianglin County. They used their self-esteem to establish a country without authorization. They also colluded with Li Jing and bloodbathed more than a dozen villages near Lurong a few days ago. No matter old or young, women or children , all of them were spared, and now they were defeated by General Fubo, and brought to Xijuan to comfort your fathers and folks who died innocently and tragically, and let you see Li Jing's true face."

Some of the soldiers in the city were from Lu Rong. They knew that the barbarians of Linyi Kingdom invaded frequently, so they didn't doubt these words. When they heard that their hometown was bloodbathed by the barbarians of Linyi Kingdom colluded with Li Jing, they immediately fell to the ground crying.Li Jing was shocked, and immediately sent people to isolate these people to prevent them from causing chaos.With such an arrangement, Sun Shao's accusation was virtually confirmed, and even those soldiers who had nothing to do with Lu Rong were a little dissatisfied.

Zhao Xiu continued to say loudly: "General Fubo's order to punish crimes only punishes the head of the crime, not the rest. As long as the coerced ones put down their weapons, they can be saved from slaughter. Anyone who dares to be obsessed with obsession, like these rebels, will be killed without mercy! "After speaking, he waved his hand and slowly retreated into the formation.Out of the 300 people behind Sun Shao, more than 100 people came out and rushed to the kneeling captive. They raised their knives and dropped them. More than 100 heads immediately rolled down in front of the formation. Blood gushed out and dyed the city red. It was shocking. .

Sun Shao took the pocket from Shuai Zeng's hand and put it on his head, calmly fastened the belt under his jaw, looked at Li Jing, who was surrounded by guards at the top of the city, with a distorted expression, sneered, and took Chen Hai's hand. With the bow in his hand, he draws the bow and nocks the arrow, his fierce gaze spans a distance of 120 steps, staring fixedly at Li Jing's face, he releases the arrow.

Li Jing shuddered violently, subconsciously stepped back, and screamed: "Guards——"

The long arrow whizzed towards, and shot into the chest of a personal guard standing in front of Li Jing with a "pounce", the sharp arrow pierced through his leather armor, passed through his body, and emerged from behind.The guard screamed, took two steps back, and fell on his back.

Sun Shao started to run. He kept drawing his bow and shooting arrows while running. In just a hundred steps, he shot eight arrows, each of which was aimed at Li Jing, without giving Li Jing a chance to breathe. , so that he could only keep going backwards, and kept letting the guards step forward to block the arrows.

Ding Feng brought dozens of strong men and rushed to push a few baggage carts. With a loud roar, he overturned the baggage carts under the city, and the people behind followed him and piled up the baggage carts. A slope was piled up under the city, and a few soldiers rushed over carrying two door panels and threw them on the slope to make a simple climbing slope.

"Shooting arrows——" Li Jing was irritated by Sun Shao's arrogance, and he wanted to conquer Xijuan City with such a simple slope?Do you think I, Xijuan City, are just paper?He ordered the archers to shoot arrows, and to stop Sun Shao with a dense rain of arrows.Sun Shao and the others were all wearing heavy armor, not even shields. Facing the long arrows shot from Xijuan City, he turned a blind eye. While running, he drew the bow and released the arrows. He himself was quickly shot into a hedgehog, but the arrow was caught between the nail leaves. Although there were occasional shots that pierced through two layers of nail leaves, none of them could cause him fatal damage.A little pain not only failed to stop him, but aroused his even more blazing killing heart.

Under the stunned gaze of the two armies, Sun Shaofei rushed up the city wall. When he was only three steps away from the city wall, he let go of the bowstring and shot the last long arrow. The long arrow flew across the distance of three steps in an instant. A defender who stabbed with a spear shot and killed him. Immediately afterwards, he took advantage of the gap that appeared in the dense defense when the defender threw his spear and covered his neck. He leaned in and swept the iron bow in his hand. It hit a defender's neck fiercely, with a muffled "crack", that defender was thrown horizontally by him, and his companions around him lost their footing.

In a moment, Sun Shaohe slammed into the defenders, with an iron bow in his left hand and a sword in his right hand, he slashed left and right, like a tiger entering a pack of wolves, invincible.Facing his fierce attack, the huddled defenders rushed up one after another, but were knocked to the ground by him without exception.A splatter of fresh blood soon sprayed Sun Shao into a bloody man, but he didn't bother to wipe it off at all. He just swung the saber and iron knife in his hand tightly, and firmly guarded a small area of ​​the city. A place is like a boulder in the sea, no matter how stormy the waves are, I will not move like a mountain.

The long-lost violence filled his whole body, and his usual playful smile turned into a fierce one.Although his face was hidden behind the visor, his sharp gaze shocked everyone who saw him, and every shout of his was a soul chasing order, which would snatch away a life and squeeze The defenders together were like a group of shivering sheep in front of him. Although there were many people, they were completely suppressed by his momentum, and they just stabbed out the weapons in their hands mechanically.

"Kill!" Sun Shao shouted, the bow string of the iron bow was cut by a sword, and the back of the bow suddenly burst open, and it slammed on the head of a black and thin defender, making him dizzy and turning around , In the blink of an eye, the long knife came whistling, and cut off his head with a single knife. The spring of blood rushed his head into the air, spraying the head and face of the companion next to him.Sun Shao let go of the bow, snatched the saber in his hand, and slashed down, splitting the defender behind who was staring at the tumbling air into two pieces.

In just a few breaths, seven or eight corpses fell in front of Sun Shao.

Chen Hai and Shuai Zeng rushed up to the city wall. They both wielded their swords and tightly guarded Sun Shao's back, shouting in unison: "General, we are here."

"Go up and cover the brothers to climb the city." Sun Shao, who had already fallen into a bloodthirsty rage, took two steps forward, raised the knife in his hand, and beheaded the two of them.With a swing of the long knife in his left hand, he pulled away a spear, and the long knife in his right hand came to him with lightning, beheading the spearman with one blow, and then collided with his body, knocking the spearman upside down and flying.

"Kill!" A halberdman yelled violently, and the long halberd was like lightning, stabbing directly at Sun Shao's chest.Sun Shao didn't try to fight, instead he bumped forward and met the sharp halberd.The long halberd pierced through the first layer of iron armor, and then pierced through the second layer of iron armor, but Sun Shao was unafraid and charged forward without hesitation. He was so crowded that his footing was unstable, and he staggered back.

Sun Shaoyuan opened his eyes and pushed the halberd hand back with brute force. At the same time, the two long knives in his hand flew left and right, beheading the defenders who rushed up one by one, and finally cut on the handle of the halberd. He only felt a strong force coming, his hands went numb, he lost consciousness immediately, and could no longer hold the halberd, Sun Shao squeezed the halberd, took a step forward, the long knife flashed, and slashed fiercely on his neck.

Behind him, there were bloodstains along the way, five or six corpses.

The defenders were frightened out of their wits by Sun Shao's bravery. Although the weapons in their hands pointed at the bloody Sun Shao, their legs trembled involuntarily, and no one dared to move forward.They clearly saw a companion stabbing Sun Shao's chest with an iron halberd, but Sun Shao was safe and sound, but that companion was beheaded by Sun Shao in one fell swoop. This situation was beyond their expectations. Could it be that Sun Shao Unkillable?
