Sun Ce led the army to Xunyang in a hurry, stopped, counted the people, and among them, he broke the captain Deng Dang. Sun Ce saw that a young general looked sad but still did not hide his heroic spirit, so he asked left and right: "Who is this?" ”

Left and right: "Captain Deng's wife's brother-in-law Lu Meng and Lu Ziming also." ”

Sun Ce summoned him and asked, and saw that Lu Meng answered freely and spoke generously, so he made him Sima of other departments, and still received Deng Dang's subordinates.

Looking at Sun Jian's injury again, the arrow in his left arm is fine, take it out, and apply the wound medicine. There was only one arrow, but it was diagonally inserted from the left arm into the left chest very deeply, which made the military doctor dare not attack.

Sun Ce was also dumbfounded when he asked, this is going to forcibly take the arrow, and if Sun Jian doesn't do it, he will die. Sun Ce, who was resolute and resolute in the past, had no idea for a while, after all, it was related to his father's life.

Fortunately, it didn't take long for Sun Jian to wake up on his own. Seeing that there was still an arrow stuck in his body, he ordered the military doctor to take the arrow, and Sun Ce and the military doctor went to Sun Jian and explained the situation. Sun Jian said angrily: "If the eldest husband dies, he will die, why not look forward and be a villain?" ”

Then he ordered the military doctor to draw the arrow. Seeing this, the military doctor couldn't, so he bowed to Sun Jian, then breathed calmly, then held the arrow shaft with both hands, exhaled and opened his voice, and in just one moment, he pulled the arrow shaft out of Sun Jian's body. I saw that on top of the arrow, there was a piece of meat upside down. Sun Jian's wound broke a big hole, and blood gushed out. The medic was busy with the medicine and wrapped it in cloth.

Sun Jian was covered with cold sweat, and there was blood in his mouth, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word, and when he looked closely, he had fainted in pain.

Seeing this, Sun Ce exclaimed sadly: "Father! ”

The military doctor took care of Sun Jian, and when he took a breath, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said to Sun Ce: "Major General, the general is fine, just a temporary coma." ”

The battle report arrived at Liu Biao's place, and when he heard that Huang Zu and Liu Pan had set up an ambush to break the Yangzhou soldiers, Sun Jian was shot and fell off his horse, and his life and death were uncertain, so he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Then he rewarded the three armies, and gave a lot of property and property to Huang and Liu. Then he said to the ministers: "Sun Wentai is defeated, with the full strength of my Jingzhou, with Cao Mengde, why not?" ”

The ministers were silent. This time, it was the main battle faction that firmly gained the upper hand. Outside the city of Xiangyang, there is a mountain, the mountain range is not high, but the scenery is very good. There are flying springs and waterfalls, strange trees and strange stones. Since the Great Rebellion in the Central Plains, countless people have moved their families south to Jingzhou to hide in this peaceful world to avoid disaster. Some people couldn't help but go out of Jingzhou, some people went to Qingzhou thousands of miles away, and some people watched coldly and didn't want to serve Liu Biao, so they settled in this mountain. Sometimes they meditate and talk about the scriptures, sometimes they watch the scenery together, and their lives are very happy.

However, for readers like them, the change of the current situation is an unavoidable topic after all. On that day they sat down together again and talked together. During the banquet, he talked about the battle between Liu and Cao.

Du Xun said: "Cao Gong came with a crowd, I am afraid that Jingzhou will be difficult to beat. ”

Zhao Yan smiled while sitting: "There are several generals in Jingzhou, with 100,000 armor, and there is a strong city as a support, and there is no shortage of grain and grass. Why did Zixu say this? ”

Du Xian said with a smile: "Cao Mengde is bright and hard, Liu Jingsheng is faint and lazy, this is one of them; The people of Yu Yan are concentric, the soldiers are excited, the civil and military forces of Jingzhou want to fight and peace, and there are endless disputes, and this is the second; Cao Jun's long-term battle journey, Jingzhou's weak division, this is also the third. With only these three articles, it is known that Jingzhou is difficult to stop Cao's southward footsteps, not to mention that Jingzhou is under the enemy on its belly and back, and there is no strong reinforcement outside? ”

Fanqin said: "Zixu's words are very reasonable, fortunately I didn't vote for Liu Jingsheng, otherwise I would be a prisoner now." ”

Du Xi stroked his beard and said: "With Hubert's talent, Cao Gong will be useful, why bear to be imprisoned?" ”

These three are all Yingchuan people. Zhao Yan is even more famous with Du Xi, Chen Qun, and Xin Bi, known as the four scholars. When the Central Plains was in turmoil, they took their families from Yingchuan to Nanyang. After all, it is comfortable and stable, and it is close to Yingchuan.

At that time, Liu Biao asked these three people to come, and they were overjoyed, treated them with courtesy, and invited them to banquets from time to time. At that time, Fanqin was moved, and Zhao Yan and Du Xi persuaded him together. Du Xun said even more fiercely: "I am afraid of the comers with my son, and I want to be in the middle of the dragon, and I will wait for the phoenix." Could it be that Liu Mu should be the master of chaos and commit the elderly? If the son sees that he can, he is not a disciple. I and my son are indispensable! "Let's talk about living in seclusion together, if you always show off your talent and vote for Liu Biao, this boat of friendship will capsize immediately.

At that time, as soon as Fanqin saw that his two good friends were persuaded like this, he extinguished this thought. An lived in seclusion outside Xiangyang City until now.

Fanqin heard Du Xian's words, but he looked at another person and said, "If Yuan is straight and useful, why is Jingzhou afraid of Cao Jun?" ”

The Confucian scholar next to him, who had not spoken, listened, just opened his eyes and smiled, then squinted his eyes slightly, and wandered away. Zhao Yan and the others also sighed. They are both Yingchuan people, and they are naturally clear about Xu Shu's details. Xu Shu obviously has great talents, but Liu Jingsheng thinks that he is from a poor family and has been a fugitive, so he doesn't need it. It's a shame.

Seeing that Xu Shu didn't say a word, Fanqin said again: "If Jingzhou is owned by Cao Gong, what do we want to do?" "But inside and outside the words, he is still unwilling to be lonely.

Zhao Yan and Du Xun glanced at each other, before the situation in the world was clear, he really didn't want to vote for Cao Cao like this. After all, there is still a Liu Bei in the north. It's just that it's been dormant for years, and it's not good to be out of office anymore. When the family provides for itself, it is time to give back to the family. Besides, if Cao Cao can capture Jingzhou in one fell swoop, it is really difficult to say who will belong to this world in the future. Liu Bei has Qing, Xu, You, and He, but You, and He are border states, and they have always been poor, and there are Hu people who are troubled. And Cao Cao's Yan, Yu, and Jing are the essence of the Central Plains, if they can be managed well, not to mention the supreme position, it is not impossible to inherit for several generations.

So Zhao Yan said: "If Cao Gong can get Jingzhou, he will be the master of the destined world, and he will be able to help Huaxia, and I know that he will return." Du Xun and Fanqin listened, thoughtfully, and nodded secretly.

At this moment, Fanqin turned his head sideways again, looked at Xu Shu and said, "Does Yuan Zhi have an idea?" ”

Xu Shu said: "You wait to go, I have my own plans." ”

As soon as Fanqin heard this, he knew that Xu Shu was unwilling to vote for Cao, and the princes of the world, Xu Shu couldn't even look down on Cao Cao, so there was only that place. Fanqin's mind moved, and he said to Xu Shu: "In this way, I will first congratulate Yuanzhi Pengcheng Wanli." ”

They chatted a little more, and then they dispersed.

After everyone dispersed, Xu Shufang opened his eyes, looked at the green mountains and green waters, the lush forests and bamboos, and said quietly: "Liu Xuande's eloquence, I want to help the ambition in my chest, how can I not vote?" If Liu Xuande doesn't come, I won't come out! ”

All the way north is Cao Cao's territory, and Xu Shu still has an old mother, otherwise, he would have gone to Liu Bei a long time ago, how could he have waited until this time.
