Zhou Yu nodded heavily and said to Sun Ce: "That's right, it's Liu Bei." ”

"Didn't you form an alliance with Liu Biao, why did you get involved with Liu Bei again?" Sun Ce asked.

Zhou Yu explained: "Actually, the person who facilitated this alliance was Liu Bei. Liu Bei is now the governor of Jingnan under Liu Biao's account, the governor of the four counties of Jingnan, and he also holds some soldiers in his hands, among which Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are invincible people, and Huang Zhong is a veteran of the battlefield, and the strength of his army is not inferior to Liu Biao's descendants. Compared with Liu Biao, who is a self-guarded man, Liu Bei is a person with great ambitions, and it is not difficult to see from the letter he wrote to me that Liu Bei wanted to take this opportunity to make a difference, but unfortunately he did not encounter a good opportunity. Moreover, Liu Bei, I also conducted an investigation, this person gradually showed his head and feet in the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, but then he was unlucky, and he did not have much power, and he has been wandering all over the place, until he arrived in Jingzhou, and gained great merit in quelling Zhang Xian's rebellion, and was appointed by Liu Biao as the governor of Jingnan, and since then he has gradually gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou......"

Sun Ce patiently listened to Zhou Yu's narration, and when Zhou Yu finished speaking, he asked: "The alliance is Liu Biao, not Liu Bei, and Liu Bei is just the governor of Jingnan under Liu Biao's account, in terms of strength, status, and prestige, they are not as good as Liu Biao, what good can it be to form an alliance with him?" ”

Zhou Yu said with a smile: "Lord, although Liu Bei has great talents, he has not encountered a good opportunity, and he has a large number of military generals, all of whom are heroes in the world." Although Liu Bei has a lot of talents, he only lacks a wise person who can really strategize. Once our two armies are aligned, the two armies will become one, and our military strength will increase dramatically. Plus my intrigue. is enough to compete with Zhang Yan. ”

Sun Ce was silent for a moment. "Gong Jin, how dare you guarantee that after I form an alliance with Liu Bei, Liu Bei will obey our dispatch?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "I have my own clever plan for this, but it's just ......"

"But what? You and my brother, what else do you use, but it doesn't hurt to say it! Sun Ce said.

Zhou Yu sneered: "It's just that the lord may need to sacrifice a person!" ”

"Who?" Sun Ce hurriedly asked.

"The lord's sister!"

"Shang Xiang?" Sun Ce was surprised, and immediately asked, "Gong Jin, what do you want to do?" ”

"I've had people inquire. Liu Bei has a wife, Gan, but has never given birth to an heir, that is, Liu Bei has no children at present. The lord's sister is the twenty-eight beauty, if she is married to Liu Bei, in this way, Liu Bei will become the brother-in-law of the lord, and naturally he should obey the lord's dispatch. Zhou Yu said.

After hearing this, Sun Ce's brows furrowed, and his eyes flashed with a strange light. asked, "Gong Jin, how old is Liu Bei this year?" ”

Zhou Yu replied: "I just turned forty this year!" ”

"Forty?" Sun Ce listened. was immediately surprised, and immediately shouted, "Liu Bei is older than me, and he is already a bad old man, Shang Xiang is only sixteen years old, and he is in the prime of his youth, you let me marry Shang Xiang to Liu Bei, a bad old man?" You also came up with this kind of strategy? ”

Zhou Yu was reprimanded by Sun Ce, and opened his mouth to explain: "Lord, you listen to me......"

"Don't say anything! I know what you're trying to say! It's okay to form an alliance with Liu Bei, but if you want to marry Shang Xiang to Liu Bei, a bad old man, I will never agree! Sun Ce said categorically.

Seeing this, Zhou Yu knew that he couldn't make sense with Sun Ce, so he immediately stopped talking, gave up, and then said to Sun Ce: "Since the lord agrees to form an alliance with Liu Bei, then I will go and deal with the matter of forming an alliance with Liu Bei." ”

Sun Ce waved his hand and motioned for Zhou Yu to leave, and at the same time agreed to form an alliance with Liu Bei, but he was very dissatisfied with the bad idea that Zhou Yu came up with, although his heart was full of anger, he couldn't send it out to Zhou Yu.

After Zhou Yu left, Sun Ce let out a hysterical cry and vented all the anger in his heart.

It was noon, Sun Ce had all the soldiers disbanded, and then they would train in the afternoon, while he rode aimlessly on horseback and walked around the city. He was distraught, did not let people follow, alone, rode alone, and soon rode out of Nanchang City.

Sun Ce rode forward for four or five miles, and then realized that he was some distance from Nanchang City, so he turned his horse's head and walked back.

Suddenly, four or five sharp arrows shot out from all directions at the same time, and flew swiftly towards Sun Ce on horseback.

Sun Ce realized the danger and immediately came to hide in a stirrup, and several arrows flew quickly from the top of his head.

At this moment, in the grass on the side of the road, an arrow was shot again, flying towards Sun Ce impartially, and by the time Sun Ce wanted to dodge, it was already too late, he only felt a chill coming from his thigh, and the sharp arrow shot directly into the flesh, and blood flowed on his thigh.

Although Sun Ce was hit by an arrow, he didn't shout, he endured the pain in his leg, turned over and rode on the back of his horse again, and at the same time noticed that twenty or thirty black-clothed masked killers rushed out from all directions, holding bows and arrows, and shooting at him indiscriminately.

Seeing that the situation was not good, and he didn't carry weapons with him, Sun Ce could only stick his body tightly to the horse's back, and with a loud shout, he urged the war horse under the seat to gallop forward, and with a stroke of smoke, he threw these twenty or thirty black-clothed and masked killers far away.

Sun Ce left in the dust, and those black-clothed people all walked forward on foot, wanting to chase them, but they heard a person shouting: "No need to chase!" ”

Everyone stopped, and all gathered around a burly and sturdy man in black, and they untied the veils covering their faces, revealing their true faces.

The person at the head, with a resolute face and fierce eyes, was none other than Zhou Tai, the general of the Han Hengjiang.

Zhou Tai glanced at Sun Ce, who had gone away, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he ordered his subordinates with satisfaction: "Retreat!" ”

Zhou Tai was sent by Chen Deng, with dozens of people who are good at archery to assassinate Sun Ce, they have been lurking in this area for a long time, and they have also figured out Sun Ce's trajectory, in the past, Sun Ce would come here to walk his horse, but every time he brought a group of entourage, so that Zhou Tai and others could not start, afraid that they had not killed Sun Ce, they would be killed by Sun Ce.

But today, maybe the heavens were secretly helping him, Sun Ce came, and he rode alone, without a single entourage.

Zhou Tai could no longer hold back the excitement in his heart, and directly ordered Sun Ce to be shot.

However, Sun Ce is also very powerful, and in the face of a sudden assassination, he was only hit by an arrow, which is really amazing.

However, Sun Ce didn't know that in order to be able to kill with one hit, Zhou Tai deliberately quenched the poison on the arrows, and as long as he was contaminated with a little bit, he would be poisoned and die quickly.

Therefore, Zhou Tai was not worried about Sun Ce running away at all, because he saw with his own eyes that Sun Ce was hit by an arrow, and this arrow was enough to kill Sun Ce.

Zhou Tai and the others all evacuated from this place, retreating as fast as possible, and at this moment, Sun Ce, who was riding on horseback, had gradually felt a little uncomfortable, his eyes were a little spent, he couldn't see things clearly, and his limbs didn't have any strength, he fought hard and rode all the way to the gate of Nanchang City, he couldn't hold on anymore, he only felt that his body was light and fluttering, and he fell directly from the horse.

"Lord!"

When the soldiers guarding the city gate saw this, they rushed up, lifted Sun Ce up, and then hurriedly sent him to the palace.

Zhou Yu was writing a letter to Liu Bei in the palace, and suddenly heard a noise outside, so he hurriedly came out to see what was going on, who knew that he just met everyone to carry Sun Ce back, he noticed that Sun Ce was hit by an arrow on the outside of his thigh, and his leg was already red with blood, and the wound was still bubbling outward.

Zhou Yu was stunned in his heart, and when he saw that Sun Ce was unconscious, he hurriedly began to make arrangements, and asked Sun Ce to be carried into the room, and then ordered: "Go find a doctor quickly!" ”

After a while, the doctor came over in a panic, saw that Sun Ce's injury was not awake, and then took a closer look at the wound on the outside of Sun Ce's thigh, only to find that the blood flowing from the wound was actually black.

"Poisonous!" The doctor immediately made a decision, immediately launched the rescue, ordered someone to cut off part of the arrow first, leaving only one arrow, the doctor asked people to wrap it in cloth, and after pulling out the arrow, he sprinkled it with gold medicine, temporarily stopping the blood flowing from the wound.

Subsequently, the doctor gave Sun Ce a pulse, while Zhou Yu and others waited anxiously on the side.

"Doctor, what's going on with my lord? What kind of poison is in the body? Zhou Yu asked anxiously.

After the doctor finished his pulse, he first sighed, then shook his head, and then said: "The old man has been practicing medicine all his life, and he has never had such a thing, the arrow is poisonous, and it is highly poisonous, after the lord was poisoned, he did strenuous exercise, so it led to poisonous gas attacking the heart, and now the toxin has spread to the lord's body, even if the Daluo Immortal descends to earth, he may not be able to save him!" You'd better prepare for the future in advance! ”

After listening to the doctor's words, Zhou Yu and the others hurriedly asked, "Doctor, is the lord really not saved?" ”

"Anyway, I have no way to save him, I have never seen or heard of the poison in him, even if I want to configure the antidote, it will take ten days and half a month. However, the lord did not have much time left, only about two days. ”

Zhou Yu looked lost, and after sending the doctor away, he immediately ordered the soldiers to go out of the city to search, and ordered that the assassin must be caught.

After that, Zhou Yu paced in Sun Ce's room, always paying attention to Sun Ce's every move. After a while, Zhou Yu ordered someone to go to Nancheng to invite Sun Ce's brother Sun Quan to come and meet Sun Ce's zuihou.

After that, Zhou Yu has been staying in Sun Ce's room, and in the face of this sudden situation, Zhou Yu also has a headache, if he doesn't handle things well in one link, the entire Jiangdong will fall into chaos.

Therefore, Zhou Yu completely blocked the news, just saying that Sun Ce was fine, but only suffered a little skin injury. (To be continued......)
