Sun Ce turned his grief and indignation into strength and continued to reorganize his troops.
His next move was to attack Wu County.
The army was stationed at the border, and a mighty pressure swept across the entire county.
He wanted to pacify River East as quickly as possible.
During this time, he received the help of someone.
Zhu Zhi!
He was an old subordinate of Sun Jian and later served in Yuan Shu's army.
The court sent Taifu Ma Riyu to patrol the local area and promoted Zhu Zhi as the commander of Wujun.
Sun Ce attacked Liu Yao, and Zhu Zhi also responded in Wujun and attacked Xu Gong, the governor of Wujun.
Xu Gong was firmly defended by the fist and was defeated by Zhu Zhi.
The power that Zhu Zhi represented was definitely not something that Xu Gong could compare to.
Sun Ce easily occupied half of Wujun and led his army to pursue Wucheng.
Wu Cheng was controlled by the Mountain Thief Yan Baihu. He was quite famous in Shanyue and could mobilize Shanyue's forces.
Sun Ce's army arrived at Wucheng and sighed.
Sun Jian's Marquis Wucheng came from this.
After his father died, his best friend Zhou Yu went north, which made Sun Ce's thoughts surge.
"Lin Yuan, take down this city."
"Yes, sir." Xiangyu cupped his fists and said.
Wuwuwu--
Amidst the sound of the horn, the Huai Water Battalion formed up under the city.
Their sabers had yet to be stained with blood, but Wu Cheng was destined to be stained with blood today!
The city was eerily quiet and the atmosphere was oppressive!
Jiangdong's reputation as a tiger and a sharp person shook the whole city.
They were waiting for the order to attack the city and let out aggressive growls.
Xiang Yu's eyes were cold as he rode forward and shouted,"
"Surrender, or break through the city and die."
The majestic voice almost cracked the city walls.
Yan Baihu had never seen such sharpness before. It was as if a mountain was pressing down.
"You are Xiang Linyuan?"
"Since you know my name, why don't you surrender?" Xiangyu shouted coldly. The spear in his hand flickered with a cold light.
"You're not worthy."
Yan Baihu said indifferently.
At this moment, he still did not know what kind of monster he had provoked. His face was full of arrogance.
"Attack the city!"
Xiangyu shouted, his voice shaking the mountains and shaking the mountains.
The Huai Water Battalion soldiers 'eyes were calm, but all the guards felt a bone-chilling chill.
"Using the enemy's blood to build the invincible reputation of the Huai Water Battalion.”
"Let all the enemies flee upon hearing the news and feel the terror of blood!”
Xiang Yu raised his arms and shouted. The Huai River Camp's flag fluttered in the wind.
His orders echoed in every soldier's ears and were carried out unwaveringly.
Attack the city.
It was activated.
Under the barrage of arrows, the Huai Water Battalion broke through and secured the scaling ladder firmly under the city wall, facing the rain of arrows as they climbed up.
Jiang Qin felt the determination of the soldiers and was deeply shocked.
"Is this the Huai River Battalion?"
"Damn it, how can I lose to my subordinates!”
All obstacles in front of them would be destroyed.
Four hours later, Xiang Yu broke out of the city and started a street battle.
The guards looked at everything in front of them in horror, their bodies trembling unconsciously.
Xiang Yu rode his horse to break through the obstacles. The iron spear emitted a cold light and drew out a bloody mist.
Jiang Qin caught up and chopped off the head of the guard. It spun and fell to the ground.
"I don't want to."
"Don't come over!"
"I am willing to surrender!"
Yan Baihu knelt on the ground, offering his dignity.
A late surrender was cheaper than Dong Zhuo's money.
Xiang Yu's spear pierced through Yan Baihu's chest, bringing out a piece of his heart, staining the area with scarlet blood.
Yan Baihu's body lost its strength and collapsed to the ground.
The bluestone floor seemed to have been moistened. A row of green grass squeezed out from the cracks, looking especially green.
Yan Baihu was used to bullying the people.
Did they really think they could fight against the main army?
He had obviously overestimated himself.
Xu Gong fled to Yuhang and joined Xu Zhao.
"Xu Zhao is loyal to the old king and loyal to his old friends. This is the ambition of a man.”Sun Ce shook his head and decided to let them go.
Cheng Pu advised Sun Ce to get rid of the two of them, but he was reprimanded by Sun Ce.
Cheng Pu had no choice but to find Xiangyu and said,""My lord is benevolent and doesn't want to kill these two thieves. If this goes on for a long time, the two thieves will certainly become a disaster.”
Xiang Yu naturally knew the principle of cutting the weeds and removing the roots, but Sun Ce had his own moral principles.
If he destroyed Sun Ce's morality and promoted his own " loyalty," he would definitely attract criticism.
Xiang Yu agreed to persuade Sun Ce, but he would not do it himself.
At night, he finally found an opportunity to tell Sun Ce about Xu Gong.
Sun Ce slowly told him the secret. It turned out that the previous governor of Wujun was Sheng Xian, a famous person in Kuaiji and a good friend of Kong Rong.
At first, Sheng Xian was appointed prefect of Wujun, but later resigned due to illness.
Xu Gong, who was then the commandant of Wu County, took his place and led Wu County.
Sheng Xian was persecuted by Xu Gong and hid in Xu Zhao's place.
Zhu Zhi had obtained Sheng Xian's help in Wu County to successfully expel Xu Gong.
Xu Zhao was Sheng Xian's savior, so he was naturally very grateful.
Behind them stood the aristocratic families and gentry of Wu County.
As for why Xu Zhao took Xu Gong in, it was because of his good friend Yan Baihu.
Xu Zhao and Yan Baihu were close friends, and it was also because of Shan Yue.
They were able to get along well with the great clans and the Shanyue Tribe, and they also had Zhu Zhi's friendship.
Sun Ce did not act rashly.
Now that Yan Baihu had been killed, if they were to touch Xu Zhao, Shanyue would probably start a riot.
In other words, Sun Ce did not touch Xu Zhao because he wanted to protect Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu was speechless.
He killed Yan Baihu and shocked the entire Wu County?
Wasn't this guy just a passerby?
