My Three Kingdoms is not right
Chapter 45 Zhou Gongjin participates
The southeast of Shouchun is flat and open, and Sun Ce knew that these women could not possibly outrun the pursuers.
Without hesitation, he instructed Liu Xun, "Your Highness, please escort my family first. I will lead the troops to cover the rear."
Knowing the urgency of the situation, Liu Xun nodded emphatically: "Take care, Bofu!"
His motion sickness had almost completely subsided, and now, clad in armor and armed with a gun, he mounted his horse and rode away.
The convoy immediately started moving and sped south. The wheels crunched and creaked over the potholed dirt road. The horses neighed incessantly as they were whipped, and the dust they kicked up obscured the view behind them.
Inside one of the carriages, a valiant young woman drew a short sword from her waist and was about to lift the curtain.
The older sister behind her grabbed her wrist: "Shangxiang, what are you doing!"
"Second sister, let go! I'll go help you fight off the enemy!"
"Stop fooling around!"
The girl addressed as "Second Sister" remained composed, her azure eyes radiating a convincing strength: "Eldest Sister is brave and decisive; she will surely return safely. Don't cause her any trouble!"
In the distance, shouts of battle could be heard, and the faint sounds of clashing swords could be heard.
Liu Xun, mounted on his horse, frequently looked back. Dust obscured his vision, and he could only see shadowy figures of men and horses entangled together.
He knew in his heart that although Sun Ce was brave, the difference in the strength of the two sides was too great.
Hopefully, she can use the terrain to hold off the pursuers and buy some more time.
……
The convoy traveled for about half an hour, bumping along the road.
The shouts of battle grew fainter and fainter, gradually being drowned out by the sound of the wind and wheels.
Liu Xun breathed a slight sigh of relief, when suddenly he saw a cavalry force emerge from behind a small hill ahead!
This enemy force numbered about two hundred men. It was clear that Qiao Rui had spotted the convoy and sent troops to bypass it, intending to ambush and kill Sun Ce's family.
At present, Liu Xun only has four carriages and more than thirty guards.
Facing cavalry that outnumbered them several times over, they had no chance of winning.
"Leave a few men to protect the carriage and continue forward, the rest of you follow me to meet the enemy!" Liu Xun shouted, then spurred his horse towards Yuan Shu's army.
Before Zhao Yun could stop him, he gritted his teeth and followed after him with his spear.
Liu Xun's martial arts skills have reached 81 points, and with the guidance of Zhao Yun and Xu Huang on his journey south, his skills are now far superior to what they used to be.
He was riding the "Shadowless," a prized horse given to him by Cao Cao. In this critical moment, he unleashed astonishing fighting power.
Like a tiger among sheep, it had already taken down several enemy soldiers in an instant.
Zhao Yun was eager to protect his lord and stayed close by his side, wielding his silver spear with impenetrable skill, ensuring that no one had the chance to launch a sneak attack on Liu Xun.
Those who accompanied Sun Ce across the river this time were all Sun's most loyal and valiant retainers.
Seeing the frail and delicate princess so brave, with her master's family behind her, they were all inspired with tremendous courage.
He fought bravely and recklessly, forcing the attacking cavalry into a state of disarray.
Sun Shangxiang was leaning against the car window, completely mesmerized.
The young man in black armor was like a dragon emerging from the sea, galloping across an enemy army ten times its size.
The midday sun shone on his handsome face, his green robe stained with blood, his black hair flying wildly, making him look like a celestial being.
"Second sister, who is this man?"
The girl next to her shook her head: "I don't know."
She, who was usually calm and composed, looked somewhat infatuated.
However, despite Liu Xun and Zhao Yun's extraordinary martial prowess and the fearless courage of Sun's elite soldiers, the disparity in troop strength was simply too great.
As time went on, the balance of power on the battlefield gradually began to tilt in the opposite direction.
Just then, a rapid bugle call sounded from the south.
Another army dressed in Yuan Shu's military uniforms appeared ahead.
Liu Xun's heart sank, but he saw them charge at Yuan Shu's cavalry without stopping.
Are they friendly forces?
Then a general rode up on horseback.
She possessed an elegant demeanor, dressed in a plain white brocade robe. Her crimson battle robe clung to her figure in the river breeze, outlining her slender and graceful silhouette.
He has a high, straight nose, well-defined lips, and a composed smile at the corners of his mouth.
"Zhou Yu is late, Your Highness has been frightened."
Zhou Lang!
No, Madam Zhou!
Liu Xun was in a daze when he heard the sound of galloping hooves behind him; Sun Ce's rearguard had arrived.
-----------------
With the appearance of Zhou Yu's ambush troops, the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.
They first defeated the two hundred detachments that launched a surprise attack, then joined forces and caught Qiao Rui's main force off guard.
Then, they calmly boarded a boat on the north bank of Chaohu Lake and sailed down the Ruxu River towards the Yangtze River.
Reeds rustled on both banks, and waterbirds took flight in fright.
Liu Xun disliked traveling by boat.
When he read Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he didn't understand why Cao Cao was so foolish as to chain his ships together with iron chains.
Now he understands.
Fortunately, the waters of Ruxu were calm, and she was on a large ship prepared by Zhou Yu, which was much more stable than sailing on the Yangtze River.
"Your Highness."
Sun Ce strode over, followed by a group of people.
She had removed her armor and changed into a dark blue brocade robe. Her hair was tied up with a silver hairpin. She had shed the murderous aura of the battlefield and looked like a heroic noblewoman.
But her eyes were still red, clearly she had just been crying.
"I, along with my entire family, kowtow to express our deepest gratitude to Your Highness!"
After Sun Ce finished speaking, he was about to kneel down. A whole bunch of people behind him knelt down in quick succession.
"Bo Fu, get up quickly!" Liu Xun hurriedly reached out to help him up. "We are already sworn siblings, why be so formal?"
Sun Ce stood up, his eyes still red, and held Liu Xun's hand tightly: "If Your Highness hadn't risked your life, I'm afraid I would never have seen my father and sisters again in this life."
"The Sun family will never forget this kindness. In the future, whatever Your Highness commands, our Sun family members will brave mountains of knives and seas of fire without hesitation!"
A gray-haired man behind her stepped forward and bowed deeply, saying, "On behalf of the entire Wu family, we thank Your Highness for your help."
This was Sun Ce's father, Wu Zhangfu.
Liu Xun quickly stepped forward to help him up: "Mr. Wu, please get up quickly. Bo Fu and I are kindred spirits and sworn brothers. You are my elder, and it is only right that I do my part to help you."
Wu's husband looked at him with a kind expression and exclaimed, "Your Highness is so heroic and unstoppable on the battlefield, yet so approachable, refined, and handsome in private. You are truly a rare man, unparalleled throughout history!"
Just as Liu Xun was about to say a few words of modesty, he heard a clear voice ring out beside him:
"Your Highness, you were incredibly skilled and impressive in killing the enemy! You were just as good as my elder sister!!"
Liu Xun followed the sound and saw that the speaker was a young girl dressed in a red outfit. Her pretty face was bright and spirited, and she was looking Liu Xun up and down with a bold and direct gaze, without the slightest hint of embarrassment.
"Shangxiang, please don't be rude!" Sun Ce glared at her and introduced her to Liu Xun, "This is my third sister, Sun Ren. She is young and doesn't know the rules. Please don't take offense, Your Highness."
Eh?
Sun Ren and Sun Shangxiang?
Why is she a loli?
Liu Xun thought that in this world, the genders were reversed, and Sun Shangxiang would also become a man.
