Three Kingdoms: Li Shimin, dressed as Liu Shan, forcibly abducts Sun Shangxiang.

Chapter 22 Sun Huan: So he really is my cousin!

Boom!

North bank of the Yangtze River

A surge of anger.

"Oh, it's my cousin!"

Sun Huan's mouth was warm, but his face was already icy cold.

This person clearly came here specifically to make fun of me...

Wow~

The waves crashed against the shore, and the river wind howled.

Between heaven and earth,

It seemed to fall into a sudden silence!

Two pairs of equally young eyes,

Facing each other from a distance.

Only the roar of the river on the shore still echoed in Sun Huan's ears...

Looking at the young man wielding a spear and riding a horse, he felt that the man was even more dashing than the Grand Commander Gongjin he had seen in the past...

eccentric!

A ridiculous thought suddenly popped into Sun Huan's mind: why did he feel like a hare on the ground being watched by an eagle in the sky?

This absurd idea was instantly extinguished by Sun Huan.

Although we do not know this person’s true identity, judging from his demeanor, he must be a person of great renown!

But right now,

Not knowing when the pursuers behind him would catch up, how could he have time to get entangled with him here?

Sun Huan didn't say a word.

He immediately drew his bow, nocked an arrow, and aimed at the figure opposite him...

But he had already exhausted all his strength during his breakout, and his arm went limp as he drew the bow...

huh~

An arrow flew crookedly...

Liu Shan instinctively and easily tilted his head to avoid it.

Suddenly,

A familiar feeling suddenly washed over me!

"This feeling is..." Liu Shan suddenly gripped the powerful bow on the saddle, instinctively about to draw the bowstring!

Flowing smoothly like clouds and water, incredibly silky...

He remembered.

Xuanwu Gate

Yuanji's arrow also missed!

then……

And that was the end of Yuanji's story.

With immense willpower, Liu Shan lowered the powerful bow, his face filled with regret. "What a pity, Sun Huan was far more useful than Yuan Ji..."

"But we cannot kill them!"

Hee hee hee!

Seeing that his arrow had failed to achieve its purpose, Sun Huan did not hesitate to spur his horse forward and charge with his spear!

I am, after all, a veteran of battle.

Dealing with such a brat is a piece of cake.

Da Da Da~

Sun Huan dismounted and his four hooves flew, kicking up mud.

Just as they were beginning to see the other person's facial features clearly, the other person remained seated on the horse, motionless.

Could this guy be scared out of his wits?

Thinking of this, a cruel smile appeared on Sun Huan's face: "Kid! Blame yourself for overestimating your abilities..."

Bang!

Sun Huan suddenly felt a powerful force coming at him.

The spear in his hand was completely out of control and flew out of his grasp!

The next moment, I felt a heavy blow to my waist!

Before he could react, he was smashed off his horse by the opponent's spear.

He fell heavily to the ground!

He was so badly hurt that he was completely disoriented and seeing stars!

"you……"

Sun Huan was about to get up when

Suddenly, he felt the hairs on his throat stand on end, a chill running down his spine...

Looking down, he saw the gleaming spearhead pressed against his throat!

in an instant,

Sun Huan's face was ashen...

Over the years, Sun Shuwu has fought countless battles. What kind of elite soldiers and generals haven't he seen? What kind of masters haven't he encountered?

But this guy is younger than me.

But only two strikes!

He knocked himself off his horse and was captured... It's unheard of!

At the critical moment of life and death,

He lay on the ground.

Looking up at Liu Shan,

A forced smile, more like a grimace, stretched across his face. "Oh, so it's my cousin..."

At this moment, their lives were in the hands of others.

Not to mention my cousin,

Even if he claims to be his biological brother, I'd have to accept it, even if it means refusing to believe it.

"During the Battle of Yiling, I was worried about my uncle's safety, so I personally went to Shimen Mountain to escort him back to Baidi City..."

"We're all relatives, why is my cousin doing this?"

Liu Shan remained calm: "My father is deeply grateful for my cousin's kindness in seeing me off..."

"I have been specially ordered to cross the river and escort my cousin to Baidi City!"

"To express the bond of kinship."

……

……

Huang Quan's camp,

Inside the central command tent,

"General, how could we betray our lord for our own lives and wealth?"

"It was only because of the lives of these ten thousand Han soldiers that I... I had no choice but to surrender to Cao Cao."

"Shi He is absolutely right. Moreover, the scouts sent to deliver the surrender document to Cao Wei have already set off. It is pointless for you, General, to grieve over this now!"

Shi He and Pang Lin were trying to comfort Huang Quan.

At this point, Shi He and Pang Lin couldn't help but feel saddened.

Once the letter of surrender is sent out...

It's too late to regret it now!

From now on, the words "traitors" will likely be etched into their very being.

Even if they could explain,

It was said to be for the lives of the Han soldiers in the camp.

It was said to be in order to preserve the vitality of the Han dynasty.

But if I told you, how many people would believe me?

"well……"

Huang Quan let out a long sigh, his spirits broken: "That may be true, but despite all the difficulties we faced, we still ended up betraying our master and defecting to the enemy."

"Quan was well-versed in Confucian classics from a young age and received the teachings of sages, yet now..."

But it became a joke!

The sage spoke of loyalty, forgiveness, benevolence, and righteousness, and the proper order between ruler and subject, father and son. Yet now he himself has surrendered to Cao Wei, who usurped the Han throne.

Without father or ruler, abandoning country and family!

He was favored by the Han emperor for his selection and important appointment, and this is how he repays the Han emperor?

Moreover, although he has now surrendered to Cao Wei, his family is still in Yizhou.

Even though the Han emperor was known for his benevolence,

But Huang Gongheng committed such a treacherous act of betraying the emperor and the country that even if the emperor punished his own family, the people of the world would probably only applaud and cheer...

Now,

Huang Quan was filled with sorrow but had nowhere to vent it, so he could only pick up the wine cup on the table and drown his sorrows in alcohol.

At this moment,

A figure rushed into the tent in a panic.

"Report! General, General..."

"Huh? Why are you back?"

Huang Quan had just swallowed half a sip of wine when he looked on in astonishment: "Didn't I tell you to go to the Wei border? Why are you back so soon?"

The visitor was a scout sent to the State of Wei to deliver a letter of surrender.

The scout swallowed hard. "General, yes, it's Sun Huan who's back!"

How could Sun Huan have returned?

He'd already said all that, so why would he come back?

Could it be that they've brought troops to retaliate?

How many troops did he bring?

"Soldiers and horses?"

The scout paused for a moment: "He did bring troops, but they don't look like troops... he..."

Seeing that the scout was speaking incoherently,

Huang Quan grabbed the ring-pommel sword and charged out of the tent.

however,

What happened next stunned him instantly...

In front of the main tent,

Hundreds of soldiers stood behind Sun Huan.

Sun Huan sat high on his horse...

He was bound hand and foot, his face covered in dust, and he sat high on his horse, his mouth even stuffed with rags.

This man was Sun Quan's most valued cousin!

He commands 5,000 elite troops stationed in Yiling City!

Now, the north bank of this great river is almost entirely controlled by Jiangdong. Who has the guts and the ability to actually kidnap Sun Huan?

What on earth is Jiangdong up to?!

For a time,

Huang Quan's mind was in complete chaos.

His eyes were filled with confusion.

He subconsciously took a few steps forward, as if trying to see clearly whether the person in front of him was indeed Sun Shuwu.

suddenly,

da~

da~

da~

A sound of horses' hooves,

The sound came from afar, gradually drawing closer.

The hundreds of soldiers behind Sun Huan dispersed to both sides without hesitation...

The sun was setting in the west at this time.

The crimson sunset cast its glow upon Huang Quan's face.

It stung so badly he could barely open his eyes.

He could only vaguely make out a figure on horseback, holding a spear and riding slowly towards him.

That seemed to be a young man.

He is even younger than Sun Huan.

da~

da~

da~

The rider moved slowly, but the sound of his iron hooves pounding the ground grew ever heavier.

Even if you can't see the person's face clearly,

But the opponent's heroic and spirited demeanor was almost unstoppable!

It can't be hidden at all...

"Who is it?"

"Who exactly is this person?"

Ignoring the blinding light of the sunset, Huang Quan strained his eyes to see...

Suddenly,

Another figure appeared on foot behind the young man...

Guan Xing?

Guan Yu's son?!

Is it him?

Huang Quan was dumbfounded.

He could hardly believe what he was seeing.

Guan Yu's son, how could he be here?!

At this moment, Guan Xing was supporting a large banner.

That banner is...

Boom!

The river wind howled, causing the great banner to flutter wildly in the wind.

The banners just happened to block out the glow of the sunset.

But it was also illuminated by the sunset, turning it a blood-red color, like a raging fire that never goes out!

On the red flag,

The black five-clawed dragon raised its head and glared angrily.

It seems to still be looking down on the world.

Still overlooking this vast land of China!

Huang Quan was struck dumb; how could he not recognize this banner?

I thought I would never see this banner again in my life, but unexpectedly, at this time and place, I met this banner again...

In an instant,

Two streams of tears flowed down Huang Quan's face: "The dragon flag and the great banner!"

"It's His Majesty's dragon banner, the emperor's flag!!"
