"Hurry up! You're taking so long, what do you do to eat on weekdays!!"
The more he chased, the harder he found that he could not catch up. Sun Quan became more and more irritable. With nowhere to vent, he could only scold the people around him.
But even so, there was still a gap between them and Sun Shangxiang and others who were fleeing in front of them, which they could not catch up with in a short time.
finally…
"I have already heard the sound of the river! Hurry, hurry, hurry! Stop cutting the reeds and rush out!"
As he spoke, the river surged and the sound of impacting the river bank became clearer. Sun Quan gritted his teeth, and regardless of his image, he walked away and rushed forward. He only heard a sizzling sound, and Sun Quan's rather expensive robes had been blown away.
Some of the low, toothy bushes in the reed marshes had more than one gash torn out.
As Sun Quan's speed exploded, the soldiers of Soochow moved forward at full speed. One by one, they jumped out of the reed swamp and rushed to the river bank. The scene was like a carp jumping over a dragon's gate.
"No! Where are the people!?"
As a result, before Sun Quan could be happy, the scene in front of him was like a basin of cold water pouring down on him, causing Sun Quan, who was originally so powerful, to wilt in an instant.
On the river bank, Sun Shangxiang and others had long since disappeared.
Some of them were just some old men fishing by the river, and there were boats floating unsteadily at the ferry.
There were waves and the gurgling sound of the water. Just when Sun Quan was stunned, a subordinate suddenly shouted to Sun Quan:
"Lord...Lord! The princess is on that boat!!"
At this time, Sun Quan belatedly saw a giant ship, almost the same size as the Dongwu Tower Ship, slowly sailing out of the blind spot of the reed marsh.
The ship was crowded with people, and there were many soldiers with sharp weapons guarding the sides and decks of the ship. No matter how you looked at it, this ship was not a huge thing that a businessman could charter.
Looking in the direction of his subordinate's fingers, the people standing at the bow of the ship, looking quietly at him, weren't they Sun Shangxiang and the others?
"This...what the hell...who is responding to them?"
"Damn it! Stop it!!"
Sun Quan was going crazy. He felt that his mind was on the verge of explosion. He was so angry that he poured all his anger on his long bow——
Rushing down the slope, the ragged Sun Quan bent his bow and arrow, and used all his strength to shoot at the strange man at the bow of the boat.
He must be Lu Qinghou, his intuition told him so.
However, he was really mad because of his anger. Due to the insurmountable distance and the exaggerated size difference between the ship and Sun Quan, the arrow that originally shot through the air was already exhausted by the time it reached the vicinity of the ship.
It didn't even touch the side of the ship, it just slipped in mid-air and fell powerlessly into the river.
The fishermen on the fishing river looked at the disheveled Sun Quan like a fool, but Sun Quan didn't pay attention to these strange looks at all.
There is countless resentment in his heart that cannot be relieved, and countless doubts that still need to be answered.
The key is...his little sister...Sun Shangxiang, along with his sister-in-law Da Qiao and others were all taken away by the man named Lu Qinghou. On such an issue that was obviously related to a man's dignity, such a desolate situation made Sun Quan directly break.
Beware.
"Marquis Lu Qing! What on earth are you...who are you!"
The hysterical shouting was filled with a hint of despair, and the tribesmen who hurried over felt a little pity for Sun Quan.
Sun Quan just knelt on the rocky beach by the river, looking at the ship moving away, helpless.
As if he heard Sun Quan's cry, the man he had been staring at walked to the side of the ship and shouted to him on the river bank:
"General! Please go back and tell the Governor that he was defeated this time, not because he was too weak, but because I was too strong!"
"It's not a shame to lose to me, Yi Xiaotian, twice! I'm very much looking forward to the next fight with the Governor - please take good care of yourself. I'm here, Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Shang Xiang and the others are
I will never be wronged!"
Sun Quan faced the river wind and knelt on the river bank. His face was not only shocked, but also shocked.
As if he had heard some incredible fact, Sun Quan did not get up again until the ship disappeared at the end of the river and the sun set.
"Lord...Lord...should we go back?"
Everyone was indeed frightened by Sun Quan. Hundreds of people were waiting for Sun Quan to speak by the river, but it was getting dark now. If they didn't leave... they might really catch a cold.
Sun Quan struggled to get up. He waved his hands, as if denying the facts he had heard with his own ears. But when he was halfway up, he knelt down again - his knees had been worn out and he was still on the ground.
His hands were also pierced into the palms by many gravels.
Suddenly, a straightforward voice came from behind. With the help of everyone, Sun Quan turned around in a daze, only to see a group of soldiers with bruised noses and swollen faces, who looked even more miserable than him, staggering towards him.
"What are you..."
Sun Quan had not yet recovered from the shock that his opponent was Yi Xiaotian. Seeing such a terrifying scene again, he could hardly speak.
As soon as they saw Sun Quan's men with bruised noses and swollen faces, they knelt down to him in tears, kowtowed and told him what had just happened.
——
I don’t know how long the tribesmen talked, but in short, after listening, Sun Quan smiled.
"Five hundred people...can't catch a single person?"
"Hahaha...hahaha..."
Sun Quan laughed angrily.
Yes, judging from the reports from his subordinates, the fact is that Zhao Yun ran away and five hundred of them were beaten to a pulp. It was not until just now that they regained their breath and hurried to the riverside to report the situation.
"No...no...Lord...originally...we were about to catch that Zhao Zilong, who knew -"
…
"Zhao Zilong! Let's capture him without mercy!"
"This time you stopped us here. If it weren't for the Lord's order, we would have captured you on the spot!"
Zhao Yun knew very well that these aggressive Soochow soldiers in front of him were trying to break down his psychological defense with words.
But he couldn't find any reason to refute it - this group of soldiers was obviously the most elite regular army in Soochow. Not only that, they were familiar with what formations to use when fighting more against less... In fact, in the face of sheer numbers,
, no matter how powerful an individual is, he will eventually be defeated. This is an iron law on the battlefield.
The non-stop battles made Zhao Yun exhausted, because they gave up the plan of breaking through Zhao Yun's blockage and just surrounded Zhao Yun to consume his physical strength. This group of Soochow soldiers had already done a very good job.
'Sun Quan hasn't sent any news back yet, so it seems that Sir and the others have successfully escaped... I must break out, otherwise...'
He kept thinking about how to break the deadlock, but his gradually blurred vision and heavier breathing made Zhao Yun's steps begin to become extremely slow.
"Succeeded!!"
While Zhao Yun was not paying attention, someone finally discovered the flaw. He held a hammer in his hand, aimed at Zhao Yun's ribs, and threw it there with all his strength. By the time Zhao Yun reacted, he was already unable to pay attention to the attack.
Got——
'Dead corner?'
'hateful…'
'Is it really going to happen today...'
For a moment, Zhao Yun felt many waves in his heart. With apologies to Liu Bei and Yi Xiaotian in his heart, he was finally ready to give up.
But the facts are always surprising.
Just when the hammer was about to hit Zhao Yun, a copper rod shot out of nowhere and directly drove the head of the hammer into the ground.
A man similar in stature to Zhao Yun jumped into the encirclement from behind many Soochow soldiers.
