"Then your Highness means not to swore an alliance with me, Jiangdong?"
Zhuge Jin couldn't defeat Liu Chan, so he simply broke the jar and threw it away.
If there is no alliance, there is no alliance.
It's a dead end for you and me!
"If you, Jiangdong, are sincere enough, it is not impossible to swear an alliance."
Seeing that there was still room for tact, Zhuge Jin asked, "Your Highness, please speak clearly."
Liu Chan was not polite to him, and said directly: "First, return all nine counties of Jingzhou and Xiangzhou; secondly, we killed more than 10,000 soldiers in Jingzhou and caused hundreds of thousands of people in Jingzhou to be displaced. We must pay compensation! Thirdly, we have to pay compensation!" , let your lord surrender to my father! The fourth is to bring 30,000 soldiers from the east of the Yangtze River to mine, mine, build roads and build the city for me. The fifth is to supply grain and grass. One hundred thousand shi will be sent every month; the sixth is to provide food and grass for me. "
Liu Chan kept talking, but Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan turned pale when they heard what Liu Chan said.
"Your Highness is like this? Does that mean you are sincere?"
Zhuge Jin snorted coldly and said: "The three counties of Jingzhou and Jiangxia County cannot be returned, and the matter of professing vassalage cannot be done. As for the compensation and food and grass matters, we must also discuss them."
Seeing that Zhuge Jin couldn't make up his mind, Liu Chan also knew that it would be useless to continue talking to him.
"If you can make up your mind, you can continue talking now. If you can't make up your mind, then I will go find Zhong Mou to make up his mind!"
Liu Chan stared at Zhuge Jin, who opened his mouth and said: "There is nothing to talk about, then we will see the outcome on the battlefield!"
At this moment, Zhuge Jin also stiffened for a while.
It's not that he doesn't want to talk.
The bottom line Sun Quan gave him was completely inconsistent with Liu Chan's requirements. How could we talk about it?
"That being the case, let's see the guests off!"
If the two armies are fighting and do not kill the envoys, it is better for Zhuge Jin, the 'crouching dragon and phoenix', to stay in Jiangdong.
After Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan left, Liu Chan stood up immediately. He ordered: "According to the original plan, the army will set out to attack the Jiangdong military camp outside Huarong City!"
"promise!"
Immediately, a follower took the order and went out of the city to report Liu Chan's military order.
"If we don't defeat Sun Quan today, I'm afraid this peace treaty will not be finalized."
Sun Quan still has illusions.
Negotiate terms with me?
Then you must be qualified to negotiate terms!
Nothing can be accomplished with words. Victory or defeat all depends on the sword!
Liu Chan put on light armor and went out of the city to mobilize. After that, he sent out troops, aiming directly at the Jiangdong military camp outside Huarong City!
After coming out of Huarong City, Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan rushed to the Jiangdong military camp.
The fifteen-mile journey was quickly reached without sparing any effort.
It was noon at this moment, even though it was early winter, Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan were sweating profusely.
"I want to see my lord!"
He jumped off the horse, ignoring the tingling sensation in his legs, and quickly walked into the military camp.
In the main tent of the Chinese army, Sun Quan was wearing light armor. Just now he went to the military camp in person to be with the Jiangdong soldiers in order to win people's hearts and improve morale.
effect
It does have some effect, but only a little bit.
If you want to restore the morale of the army, you must win a battle.
But now, where can he win the battle?
"Report~"
The messenger rushed into the tent and said, "The two envoys have returned."
Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan are back?
Sun Quan immediately stood up from his seat and couldn't help but rush out of the tent to greet Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan.
How long have you been here?
Just come back?
Could it be that Mr. Liu was so happy that he directly agreed to the peace terms?
Too.
I still have tens of thousands of powerful soldiers in my hands, and I have eighty-one counties in Jiangdong as my support. If Liu Gongsi wants to revive the Han Dynasty, he must win over Sun Zhongmou.
It must be so!
Sun Quan walked out of the tent with a smile on his face, and at this moment, Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan, who were sweating profusely, also walked outside the tent.
When the two of them saw Sun Quan coming out to greet him in person, they quickly saluted and said, "I will pay my respects to my lord."
"No need to be polite."
Sun Quan helped Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan up, and he hurriedly asked: "How is this mission going?"
How was the mission?
Zhuge Jin and Yu Fan looked at each other, both of them looking troubled.
Seeing the two people's expressions like this, Sun Quan's heart thumped and he secretly thought something was wrong.
Is it impossible to go on a mission?
The smile on his face gradually disappeared, and his voice became much colder.
"What happened?"
Zhuge Jin lowered his head, but had no choice but to step forward and said: "The Crown Prince Liu Gongsi of Hanzhong did not agree to the lord's peace terms. Even the ministers dare not agree to the terms he proposed."
Zhuge Jin told several of Liu Chan's conditions, which made Sun Quan, who was listening quietly, very angry.
"Young Liu Chan is bullying others too much!"
He snorted coldly and said: "Do you think I, Jiangdong, really have no one? Do you think I, Sun Zhongmou, am not the opponent of his Gongsi Liu?"
"Our Jiangdong soldiers are elite, not inferior to their Jingzhou soldiers!"
Sun Quan was about to boost his morale, but Zhuge Jin also said what he said next.
"My lord, Duke Liu has come with a large army now. I hope my lord will make preparations as soon as possible."
Are you really coming?
Sun Quan was shocked, and the confident look he had just pretended to encourage him completely disappeared.
"What? Are you coming to attack now?"
Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun and Zhu Ran behind him and asked, "Everyone, what should we do now?"
Gu Yong stepped forward at this moment and said: "My lord, why don't you agree to Liu Gongsi's conditions? Now the morale of our army's sergeants is low, and the generals under the command of Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, are all elite and invincible. Go ahead There is no chance of winning if we engage in battle, I hope my lord will think twice!"
Another one surrenders.
Sun Quan snorted coldly, looked at Lu Xun, and asked, "What do you think Boyan?"
Now that the morale of the army is unstable, even the upper-level counselors and generals are feeling timid.
Logically speaking, he should agree to Liu Gongsi's conditions.
But Liu Gongsi's conditions were too harsh.
The Lord will definitely not agree!
Moreover, now, Jiangling's army is pressing down on the territory, but they dare not say a word of war. If this is the case, I am afraid that they will be controlled by others, and the conditions for Liu Gongsi's peace negotiation will only be more harsh!
"My Lord, I think this battle must be fought. If we don't fight this battle, it will be difficult to make peace!"
Gu Yong had a wry smile on his face and said, "We are going to fight, but can we win?"
Although Sun Quan didn't like hearing what Gu Yong said, his words still made sense.
beat?
If the battle is lost and the army is defeated, then Liu Gongsi will not need to negotiate peace.
He simply used his soldiers to achieve his goal.
"There is no need to go out of the city to fight with them, just defend the military stronghold!"
Defend the military stronghold?
"It's just that this military stronghold was built hastily and is not strong. How can it withstand the attack of Jiangling's army?"
Defending the military stronghold?
This military stronghold is just some antlers, traps, arrow towers, and a wooden wall.
Can they stop Jiangling's army?
Not only was the general who spoke unsure, but no one in the audience was confident that he could defend the Jiangdong military stronghold.
"Everyone!"
Lu Xun looked around at the generals and said: "We are waiting for tens of thousands of troops to form a large formation. As long as the front is withstanding, we may not be defeated. We are not going to fight in the field. We only need to defend the military stronghold."
If you can't win in the field, can't you defend?
"Think about your relatives at home. If we lose this battle again, I, Jiangdong, will be known as a coward. How can you still have the wealth you have now? If Jiangdong is occupied by Liu Gonghe, Jiangdong's wealth and silk will still be there. For your use? It will be shipped to Chengdu early."
Lu Xun's words indeed played a role in boosting morale.
Even if you are not thinking about the Lord, you must also think about your own interests.
Liu Bei, the king of Hanzhong, could no longer squeeze out his Jiangdong ministers and generals.
Although Liu Gongsi is young, he has countless elite soldiers and generals, and many advisers. How can there be a place for Jiang Dong's generals beside him?
Once defeated today, the land east of Jiangdong will become a vassal of the King of Hanzhong.
Most of the wealth produced in Jiangdong must be transported to Jiangling or even Chengdu.
Jiangdong's son wanted to sacrifice his life and blood for the king of Hanzhong to revive the Han Dynasty. As cannon fodder, Jiangdong's daughter became the plaything of people in Jingzhou and Yizhou.
This situation must never happen!
Making them loyal and stimulating combat power is not as direct as the direct benefits.
After Lu Xun finished speaking, the fighting spirit returned to the faces of those generals.
"In this case, we will fight to the death to block Jiangling's front!"
"That's right. If you win, you will both be prosperous, and if you lose, you will both suffer. If you want to negotiate a peace, you have to set the conditions!"
"My lord is waiting with me, so what else is there to be afraid of?"
When the generals in the field say something to you and I say something to you, you really feel like a loyal minister.
Sun Quan's face became much better, and he said to Lu Xun: "Let Boyan arrange the specific affairs!"
"promise!"
Lu Xun happily accepted the order.
Since Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong, cannot be defeated, I, Lu Xun, cannot be defeated by you either!
He immediately ordered.
"General Zhu Ran, you lead the elite cavalry and roam outside the military stronghold, waiting for opportunities."
"promise!"
Zhu Ran immediately led his troops and left.
"The whole army is divided into three battalions, front, middle and rear. The front camp is made up of sword and shield bearers, heavy armor troops and spearmen. The middle camp is made up of crossbowmen, spearmen and rangers. The rear camp is made up of sword-wielding infantry."
Lu Xun's arrangement was very quick and the order was very clear.
With his military order, the entire army was mobilized.
Not long after, Liu Chan led tens of thousands of troops and marched in front of the Jiangdong military stronghold.
Outside Jiangdong's military stronghold, numerous Jiangdong soldiers gathered together to form a thick line of defense. Wearing armor and holding spears and bows, they looked majestic and displayed the bravery of warriors.
In front of the military stronghold, swordsmen, shield-bearers and heavy armor troops were lined up neatly in rows, with high morale and their eyes firmly fixed on the direction of Jiangling's army.
Jiangdong soldiers were distributed on the wall, on the towers and around various strongholds. On the sentry tower high on the wall of the village, there are archers and crossbowmen who closely observe every move of the enemy and are ready to shoot arrows at any time.
The river wind whistled, the flags fluttered, the soldiers' armor flashed with cold light, and their breath revealed firm determination.
The military formation of Jiangling's army was no worse than that of Jiangdong's army opposite. They lined up neatly, flags fluttering in the wind, soldiers arranged in square formations, and the hoofbeats of war horses roared. They were wearing armor and holding swords, and their ferocious aura filled the entire battlefield.
The victorious army is as powerful as a rainbow!
The two armies faced each other, the atmosphere was tense and depressing, and the smell of war condensed in the air.
The sun shines through the clouds and shines on the soldiers, reflecting their resolute expressions and cold eyes. The wind blew the flags and made a rustling sound, as if describing the coming fight and bloody battle.
The entire battlefield was filled with a tense atmosphere, and soldiers on both sides gritted their teeth, preparing for an imminent battle.
The two sides in the confrontation each carry different missions and beliefs.
The Jiangling army naturally wanted to perform meritorious service and avenge their dead comrades.
As for Jiangdong's army, they want to defend the military stronghold in order to achieve a good peace negotiation effect. When it comes to their own interests, they have to fight hard!
The entire battlefield was wrapped in a tense atmosphere, and the tension that was about to break out made people feel palpitating.
In this vast land, the confrontation between Jiangdong's soldiers and Jiangling's army was like a prelude to war. As soon as the war drums sounded, the swords and swords engulfed the armies of both sides.
"Your Highness, please allow the last general to go and fight against the general!"
When generals confront each other, doesn't this prepare him for a battle between generals?
The previous battle failed to kill Zhu Ran, now, Zhu Ran is going to be killed!
"Can!"
If the generals in front of the battle are victorious, their morale will naturally increase.
After receiving the order, Ah Hui Nan ran out wildly. The battle ax in his hand shone with a chilling light under the sunlight.
"I am Ah Hui, who dares to fight to the death with me?"
In front of the formation, Ah Huinan held a giant ax and pointed at the Jiangdong Army formation, looking very arrogant.
"This barbarian is disgusting!"
"I am being bullied by no one in Jiangdong? My lord, let me go and challenge you!"
"If the barbarian general is allowed to run rampant again, how will the soldiers in the army still have morale?"
Seeing Ah Hui'nan being so rampant, Jiangdong's generals couldn't stand it anymore and asked for a fight one after another.
Even if we are going to die in battle, we can't let that barbarian general step on our heads and shit!
"Bo Yan, what do you think?"
Sun Quan felt a little hesitant and looked at Lu Xun.
"My lord, Ah Hui Nan is asking for a battle. If we don't go out to fight, our morale will be low. We have to be short of a strong general to fight with Ah Hui Nan. We don't want to win, we just want to be undefeated."
Ah Hui Nan was too fierce before.
He defeated Zhu Ran, beheaded Quan Cong, and pursued Sun Quan. He was like a demon and looked upon the Jiangdong army as nothing.
Such fierce generals are really difficult to defeat.
When the soldiers in Jiangdong saw this, they felt terrified.
"My lord, let me go meet Na Ah Hui Nan for a while!"
Ling Tong stepped forward to ask for orders at this moment.
Previously, he led the dismounted tiger soldiers to rescue Bu Lianshi and Han Dang, but failed.
He was ashamed to disappoint his lord Sun Quan!
Now that the barbarian general Ah Huinan was embarrassing his Jiangdong sergeants in front of them and preventing his lord from coming to power, how could he sit idly by and ignore them?
Kill him!
"Public achievements."
Sun Quan looked at Ling Tong, hesitant in his heart.
When he asked Quan Cong to fight before, he was unsure. What was the result?
Quan Cong, who was originally his son-in-law candidate, was cut in half by Ah Huinan. Ling Tong was his confidant and favorite general. If he died again, wouldn't there be no one around him to use?
Moreover
When fighting generals, one needs to be cautious. What if Ling Tong is sent forward but fails to defeat the barbarian general A Hui Nan and is killed by the formation?
He, Sun Quan, can no longer afford to lose, and he cannot lose again!
"Lord, don't worry!"
Ling Tong saw Sun Quan's hesitation and said: "Although the barbarian general Ah Hui'nan is brave, I have seen him fight several times and I have already figured out his tricks. Not to mention defeating him, I will fight with him." There is no problem in a tie. Moreover, this Hui Nan has been fighting for many days and has numerous hidden and open wounds. If it can be delayed for hundreds of rounds, I am afraid that I will kill him instead of him killing me! "
Ling Tong was not a reckless person. After listening to his analysis, Sun Quan couldn't help but have some hope in his heart.
Lu Xun also said from the side: "My lord, now only General Ling Tong can take action."
"good!"
Sun Quan no longer hesitated and gave the order immediately.
"Gongji, this time I go to fight against the general. I don't ask you to win, but I ask you not to be defeated. Go ahead. If you can kill the barbarian general, I will not be stingy with the reward. I will allow your son to enter the palace and serve as my attendant!"
Don’t think about yourself, but also think about your descendants!
Ling Tong nodded heavily, his eyes narrowed slightly, with a dangerous light flashing inside.
He's just a mere barbarian.
I have countless warriors in Jiangdong, how can I be afraid of him?
After Ling Tong saluted, he immediately jumped on his horse. He was holding a broadsword, a sword tied to his waist, a long bow on his back, and a quiver of arrows and a round shield tied to his horse's waist.
With all the equipment in place, Ling Tong immediately ran out of the formation.
"That barbarian general, don't be so arrogant. Your grandpa Ling Tong is here to meet you!"
Ling Tong?
Ling Tong held a broadsword, the blade flashing with cold light, and carried a long bow on his back with the bow string tightened. Wearing armor, he looked majestic, riding on a war horse, with galloping hooves, like a bolt of lightning piercing the battlefield.
Ah Huinan held a giant ax in his hand. The ax was broad and powerful, with a sharp blade. He is also riding on a war horse. His huge body complements the war horse, giving people a powerful and majestic feeling.
His body was covered with heavy armor, and the protective gear was inlaid with copper nails, flashing with bursts of cold light.
The two met in the center of the battlefield, with firm eyes and high fighting spirit.
"It seems that I, Hui Nan, have killed the souls of the dead with my axe, so I have to give you Ling Tong's name!"
Ah Hui Nan burst out laughing.
The horses neighed and their hooves kicked up dust.
The two-faced generals and the eyes of tens of thousands of people were all fixed on these two people.
"Noisy! I'll see you under the knife and die for your grandfather!"
Ling Tong brandished his sword, the light of the sword was like a waterfall, and it was unstoppable. He was like a tiger coming down the mountain, attacking fiercely, and every slash contained powerful power. Ah Huinan wielded the giant axe, and every chop seemed to bring about the force of wind and thunder, which was astonishingly powerful.
"This Ling Tong cannot be underestimated!"
In the past, Ah Hui Nan used force to defeat the enemy. His giant ax connected with the opponent's sword. Under the huge force, the opponent could not even hold the weapon steady, so Ah Hui Nan would immediately find a flaw, thus achieving the purpose of killing the enemy.
However, this Ling Tong was like a roundworm in his stomach. He was very familiar with his moves. He didn't come to confront him head-on with swords at all, but used ingenuity to neutralize his brute force.
Suddenly, he couldn't take down Ling Tong.
"snort!"
Ling Tong snorted coldly and thought to himself: A barbarian general is a barbarian general. Do you really think you can conquer the world with one move? I've seen through my underwear. If he can't come up with other moves, then Ling Tong will win this battle!
But then again, Ah Hui Nan, do you have any other moves?
Dang Dang Dang~
The giant ax and the broadsword intertwined, and the two of them killed dozens of times, but there was still no victory or defeat.
Damn it!
Ah Hui Nan gradually became impatient.
He is now like a ferocious tiger, but opposite him is a nimble cheetah. Although not as strong as him, he can always neutralize his attacks.
He had the feeling of a fist hitting cotton.
The more impatient you are, the harder you use it.
Huhuhu~
After dozens of rounds, Ah Huinan was already out of breath.
He has brute strength and great strength.
However, this giant ax weighed tens of kilograms after all. He swung it more than a hundred times and the physical exertion was much greater than that of the man holding the knife opposite.
In addition, he had been fighting for many days, and the wounds on his body were aroused in such a fierce battle.
Ah Hui Nan bit the corner of his lip, a look of pain on his face.
good chance!
Seeing that Ah Hui Nan was exhausted, how could Ling Tong let go of such a good opportunity?
He had a long knife in his hand and immediately slashed towards A Hui'nan's neck.
"Yeah yeah~"
Not knowing where the strength came from, Ah Huinan suddenly became violent and started fighting with Ling Tong again.
Another dozen rounds passed, and the two of them went back and forth, evenly matched in every move.
The light of the sword and the shadow of the ax intertwined, and the air was filled with the sound of metal collision and whistling, as if the entire battlefield was filled with the battle between these two people.
Time passed by minute by second, the war horses panted non-stop, and the bodies of Ling Tong and A Huinan were covered with beads of sweat.
You general, are you really not tired?
Ling Tong pushed his horse back a dozen steps, took off the long bow from his back, and took out the arrow tied to the horse's waist.
Whoosh whoosh!
In less than three breaths, three arrows shot towards A Hui Nan's vitals.
Dang Dang Dang~
Ah Huinan used his giant ax to resist.
"Thief general, suffer death!"
Ah Huinan rushed forward, intending to kill Ling Tong off his horse while Ling Tong was shooting arrows, but he did not expect that Ling Tong would already have the sword in his hand.
clang!
The giant ax and the sword connected, and the two turned away, preparing to rein in the horses and fight again.
However, Ling Tong bent his bow and drew an arrow, turned his head and shot A Hui Nan from behind.
"Drive~"
Ah Huinan just turned his horse's head and saw the arrow coming at high speed. At this moment, he had no time to raise the giant ax in his hand to block it. He had to lie down to avoid the vital point.
Phew~
The arrow pierced A Hui'nan's left arm.
pain!
The severe pain made Ah Huinan sweat break out on his forehead.
"The barbarian will die!"
While you are sick, I will kill you!
Ling Tong rushed forward, but Ah Huinan was in severe pain and did not dare to fight anymore, so he had to run back to the military formation.
"Hahaha, hahaha!"
Ling Tong looked up to the sky and laughed twice. He just felt extremely happy in his heart.
The previous humiliation was all won back after the general's victory.
"He's just a barbarian, how can he be my opponent, Ling Tong? I, Jiangdong, are not someone you can bully at will!"
Ling Tong raised his sword and shouted: "I am invincible in Jiangdong, and my army in Jiangdong will be victorious!"
Behind him, our Jiangdong soldiers, who saw the general's success in fighting, were also invigorated and shouted:
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
"Wan Sheng!"
Ling Tong felt happy as his morale had returned. But after saying this, Ling Tong did not dare to make excuses, and immediately rushed back to the Jiangdong military formation.
If another general emerges from Jiangling's army and wants to fight with him, how can he have any chance of winning in his current exhausted state?
Just say a harsh word, and you still have to leave when it's time to leave.
"Okay, okay!"
In the Jiangdong army formation, Sun Quan looked at Ling Tong returning in triumph, and the smile on his face never stopped!
Morale is soaring!
After fighting against that Liu Gongsi for so many times, he finally won back the victory among the generals.
"You have made a great contribution to the public achievement!"
Originally, he hoped that Ling Tong would not lose to Na Ah Hui Nan among the generals, but he didn't expect that Ling Tong would find Na Ah Hui Nan's flaw and defeat him instead.
"Thanks to Lord Hongfu, I was lucky enough to win."
Ling Tong couldn't stop the smile on his face.
certainly
With this victory alone, Ling Tong has not reached the point where he is about to float.
"My lord, now that we are victorious, we may be able to send envoys to the Jiangling military formation to negotiate peace with Liu Gonghei."
Gu Yong's face showed joy and he urged from the side.
Negotiate peace?
Sun Quan snorted coldly and said: "Now, why do we need to negotiate for peace? The morale of our army is very high. At that time, we will send troops to attack his Jiangling army formation and capture and kill Liu Gongsi!"
"Yes, where is the need for peace now?"
"Don't try to increase the enemy's prestige or destroy the morale of our army. Now we have to order the army to cover us up!"
Ling Tong was even more straightforward and said: "Please give me the order to send troops, my lord. I will definitely cut off the head of Mr. Liu's dog!"
Military spirit is available!
The military spirit is available!
Sun Quan felt happy in his heart. The humiliation and pressure on him for many days had finally been relieved a lot at this moment.
He waved his hand and was about to give an order.
"Order the whole army"
However, before he finished speaking, Lu Xun stood up and stepped forward, interrupting what Sun Quan was going to say next.
"My lord, it is not appropriate to attack at this moment!"
Um?
Sun Quan looked at Lu Xun, frowning slightly, and his tone was quite dissatisfied.
“If we don’t attack now, when can we attack?”
If you don't send troops to attack while morale is high, after a few days, morale will be gone, and it will be even less possible for you to be Liu Gongsi's opponent.
Aren’t you, Lu Boyan, from the main war faction?
Why are you like Gu Yong now, thinking about surrender all day long?
"My lord, please listen to what the general has to say."
Lu Xun did not win the battle, and the morale of the army was high, so he changed his mind.
"Bo Yan can speak his mind!"
After receiving Sun Quan's consent, Lu Xun immediately began to analyze.
"Although our army has won the battle and the morale of the army is high, my lord, looking at it, is there any chaos in the Jiangling army formation opposite?"
After hearing Lu Xun's words, Sun Quan raised his head and looked at the Jiangling military formation opposite.
He shook his head slightly.
"The army on the opposite side is well-organized and there is no panic."
"Although Ah Hui Nan was defeated in the battle, his military strength was not damaged, and his morale may have been slightly depressed. However, he had won several battles in several days. How could it be that because of the defeat of the general, his soldiers had no desire to fight? Exactly. On the contrary, I am afraid that the Jiangling soldiers are all holding their breath in their hearts! Our army is here to cover up the enemy, so there is little chance of winning."
Lu Xun's analysis was reasonable and well-founded. Sun Quan couldn't help but think deeply, and the smile on his face disappeared bit by bit.
But Lu Xun’s words were not finished yet.
"Besides, even if our army wins, so what? Is it possible to win a big victory? If it can't be a big victory, what's the difference between it and the victory of a fighting general? What the lord wants is just to negotiate a peace. Can he really win Jiangling?"
Take Gangneung?
yes!
The look on Sun Quan's face became a little desolate.
When he led his troops here, his original intention was to capture Jiangling, but what about now?
Do you still dare to think about Jiangling?
I can’t even think about it.
Now, all he wanted was to be able to escape unscathed so that Liu Gongsi's sharp knife would cut his flesh less. This was Sun Quan's idea.
"In that case, Ziyu, you go to Liu Gongsi's army to discuss peace."
"promise!"
The general won the battle, and Zhuge Jin gained a lot of confidence, so he immediately accepted the order and left.
At the Jiangling military formation, Liu Chan looked at Ah Hui, who was covering his arrow wound and full of shame, and said, "Victory and defeat are common matters for military officers, so you don't have to worry about it."
Ah Hui sighed and said: "It's a pity that I failed to kill the general and missed the Lord's important event, so that the morale of Jiangdong's army was restored."
Liu Chan smiled softly and said: "If he can come back, I can beat him back. General, go down and rest for now."
"promise!"
Ah Hui Nan retreated, and Liu Chan was just about to order his men to beat drums to attack him, when he saw a horse standing out from the Jiangdong army formation, and the person sitting on it was none other than Zhuge Ziyu.
Zhuge Jin?
Liu Chan frowned slightly, coming to discuss peace again?
"Your Highness, I am the envoy of the Marquis of Wu, here to discuss peace."
Liu Chan drove his horse forward, chuckled, and said, "You don't have enough weight in what you say. If you sincerely negotiate for peace, will your lord come over?"
Let the lord come over?
Zhuge Jin was stunned for a moment and said, "Your Highness is joking. How can my lord go deep into the enemy's formation?"
If Sun Quan was captured, wouldn't his Jiangdong army be dispersed?
If you deliver it to your doorstep, my master will not be so stupid.
"The two armies agreed to meet in front of the formation."
Liu Chan pointed to the position in the middle of the two armies and said: "Marquis Wu and I will not bring any other attendants."
Zhuge Jin followed Liu Chan's line of sight and looked over.
The two armies were eight hundred steps apart, and the distance between them was four hundred steps, which seemed to be no problem.
"Haha, is it possible that your master is really a rat from Jiangdong and you dare not come to see him?"
Seeing Zhuge Jin's hesitation, Liu Chan deliberately spoke to provoke the general.
Zhuge Jin stopped his horse and said, "I'm going to report it right now."
In the Jiangdong army formation, Sun Quan had a look of surprise in his eyes after hearing Zhuge Jin's words.
"Invite me to meet and discuss peace?"
His eyes flickered, and for a moment, he didn't know what Liu Chan was thinking.
"My lord, soldiers are treacherous. This Mr. Liu is very cunning. We are afraid that there is some deceit in him, so we must not go forward."
Gu Yong from the cautious faction immediately stepped forward and said.
Sun Quan was also worried that this was Liu Chan's trick, but if he didn't go, wouldn't Sun Quan really become a rat from Jiangdong?
He looked at Lu Xun and asked, "Do you think Boyan wants me to go or not?"
Lu Xun touched the short beard under his chin, thought for a moment and said, "In my opinion, the Lord must go on this trip."
"go?"
Gu Yong said on the side: "What should I do if there is a fraud?"
"Since they meet in the middle of the two armies, Liu Gongsi will not dare to cheat. He is a trustworthy person and does not dare to make fun of his own credibility."
Not kidding about credibility?
Sun Quan felt uncomfortable.
Does this mean that I, Sun Zhongmou, don’t take my credibility seriously?
"The situation is in front of the two armies. If there is a change, the Lord will drive back, and there will be enough time."
Lu Xun looked at Sun Quan with burning eyes.
That look seemed to say: Lord, do you dare to go on this trip?
Dare to go?
If there is no danger, why don't I dare to go?
Jiangdong rat?
Not me, Sun Zhongmou!
Moreover
He wanted to see his good nephew and son-in-law, and see what kind of talent he was, so that he, Sun Quan, could be defeated repeatedly.
"Just go and see him, so what?"
Zhuge Jin is incompetent and cannot negotiate terms.
If I, Sun Quan, take action, how can Mr. Liu not be impressed by my magnanimity?
Soon, the news was reported to the Jiangling army formation.
"Your Highness, do you really want to go? I'm afraid it's a bit dangerous."
Guan Yinping looked at Liu Chan, with worry in his beautiful eyes.
"Then Zhongmou isn't afraid, so what should I be afraid of?"
Liu Chan looked around at the generals and advisors beside him and said, "Don't worry. When it comes to martial arts, I'm not much inferior to Sun Quan."
After saying that, Liu Chan immediately drove his horse forward and rushed to the military formation.
Seeing Liu Chan coming out of the queue, Sun Quan, who was wearing a purple robe, also raised his horse and stopped five steps away from Liu Chan.
The two looked at each other.
What a handsome husband!
The heroic crown prince of Hanzhong!
The body is majestic and the appearance is dignified. A pair of eyes shot cold stars, and the two curved eyebrows were as thick as paint. The chest is broad and broad, and it has the majestic power that makes people worship when they put their heads on it.
No wonder he has so many capable ministers and generals accompanying him, this skin is quite good.
Liu Chan looked at Sun Quan from the side.
He has a purple beard, blue eyes, bright eyes, a square mouth and a big mouth, and his appearance is strange and majestic, which is different from ordinary people.
Whether it is Sun Jian's biological child or not is a little hard to say.
"I wonder whether I should call you uncle, father-in-law, or prince?"
Liu Chan added in his mind: Maybe he can be called a fellow-minded person.
"snort!"
Sun Quan snorted coldly and said: "Whatever you want to call it, do you agree to the terms of the peace negotiation or not?"
Sun Quan stared straight at Liu Chan, filled with murderous intent, as if he was afraid of Liu Chan.
However, Liu Chan had seen so much of the world, how could he be frightened by a mere glare?
"Cut the three counties of Jingzhou, pay compensation, supply grain, grass and military equipment, send 30,000 young men to forgive you, and send Jiangling as a pledge."
Liu Chan's peace negotiation conditions have never changed.
"Hahaha~"
Sun Quan laughed loudly and said: "Now that my general has won the battle, the morale of the army is high. If I don't cover up the army to attack and kill you, I will give you face. If you don't know the rules, you will see the difference between the swordsmen and the soldiers on the battlefield."
Liu Chan took a deep look at Sun Quan and said: "The prince is sitting on the land east of the Yangtze River. Is it possible that he has a disobedient heart? Is he delusional to aspire to the Central Plains? To achieve the cause of becoming a king?"
Sun Quan narrowed his eyes and said: "With the flow of luck, Jiuding will become easier. The general trend of the world may belong to anyone."
"You can't dominate the world just by relying on Jiangdong. If you can capture Xuzhou, you may have a chance, but you are short-sighted and only think about Jingzhou."
Liu Chan snorted coldly, and then said: "Wei is so powerful that if you and I form an alliance, it is possible to defeat Wei. If I attack Wei, and you attack me behind my back, how can I succeed?"
Sun Quan's eyes flickered and he said nothing.
"The terms of the peace negotiation must not be changed, but I will help you Jiangdong capture Hefei. Then you can plan for Xuzhou. This land of Jiangxia is of no use to you."
Of course, all the conditions for peace talks are indispensable.
But I can draw a big picture for Sun Quan.
Help you capture Hefei!
As for how to help, this is up to him, Liu Chan.
Sun Quan narrowed his eyes slightly, as if thinking about it in his mind.
"hehe."
He sneered and said, "Thinking of using sophistry to win over our three counties in Jingzhou? Don't even think about it!"
Sun Quan stared at Liu Chan coldly and said: "It seems that there is no winner today, which is not good."
Liu Chan's face was very relaxed, and he even had a smile.
"Uncle, oh no, father-in-law, I, as a junior, still have something to say to you. If there is a battle today, no matter who wins or loses, there will be no winner. Xiakou is restricted by the ban, and the public security and others will attack No, my army is as powerful as a rainbow. Can you really stop the front of my troops? If you lose, it will be a complete defeat. Not only will Jiangxia not be able to protect it, but both Zhenzhen and Jiangdong will suffer losses."
The smile on Liu Chan's face was very warm, but the words behind his words were extremely cold.
He is talking about a cruel reality.
"Whether this battle is won or lost, I will definitely take Jiangxia County. If this battle is fought, your soldiers will suffer heavy losses. Do you still have the ability to attack Hefei and plan Xuzhou? I hope you will think carefully and don't let it happen for a moment. He was so angry that he gave up his hope of hegemony."
Want to dominate?
Want to dominate the world?
This is something that ordinary people cannot do.
Then you have to endure what ordinary people cannot endure.
Anger towards me, Mr. Liu?
Just hide it.
Now for you Jiangdong, giving up the three counties of Jingzhou, forming an alliance with me, and causing trouble for Wei State and Hefei is your best and only way out.
Sun Quan looked struggling. It was obvious that he was persuaded by Liu Chan.
Can you win the decisive battle with Liu Gongsi now?
He had no idea.
Although the generals have won and their morale has improved a little, can they really defeat Jiangling's army?
If they cannot win a battle and fall into a stalemate, and Xiakou Yujin blocks the grain route on the river, there will be problems with the logistics of his Jiangdong army. Once the army is weak, retreat will be inevitable.
The army on the south bank of the Yangtze River may not even be able to return to Jiangdong because Yu Jin is blocking it at Xiakou.
He has an army of 30,000 to 40,000 people on the south bank!
No room for error!
Once his Jiangdong vitality is severely damaged.
Fight for world hegemony?
No!
Even keeping Jiangdong is a luxury.
"This matter. I will return to the formation, discuss it with my staff, and then inform you of the result."
Now, Sun Quan did not dare to directly agree to Liu Chan's request.
"Can."
This is an important decision after all, and Liu Chan naturally understands Sun Quan's caution.
"But don't let it take too long. I only give you a quarter of an hour. When the quarter of an hour comes and there is no news, our army will come to cover you up."
It was impossible for Liu Chan to give Sun Quan too much time.
Give them too much time and they will have a lot to think about.
Thinking too much will naturally be detrimental to Liu Chan.
"snort!"
Sun Quan said nothing and rode away.
"Please think carefully, sir, and don't make a mistake. Your wife has been captured by me in Huarong City. Haha, if I am slow, anything I can do is possible."
When Sun Quan reined in his horse and left, Liu Chan said something faintly behind him.
Sun Quan's heart tightened, and he suddenly felt that a green hat was about to be put on his head.
He hurriedly drove his horse to the military formation.
Inform the generals and advisors in the Jiangdong army about the conversation with Liu Chan.
There was a moment of silence.
Gu Yong immediately stood up and said: "In this case, we can turn our hostility into friendship with Mr. Liu and return to the ranks of allies. We can even get Hefei and expand into Xuzhou. This can be regarded as achieving our lord's goal that day."
Before, Sun Quan was confused whether to seek Xuzhou or Jingzhou.
The result later was that he wanted to plot Jingzhou.
but now
But he was forced by Mr. Liu to seek Xuzhou.
"Lord, I can agree to the peace negotiation, but the specific matters need to be discussed carefully. For example, Mr. Liu wants to help me plan Hefei. How did he plan it?" Lu Xun warned.
Zhuge Jin nodded and said =:
"For food and grass matters and compensation matters, we need to set a figure acceptable to Jiangdong, and send young people there? Thirty thousand people are really too many. We should have a good discussion with Liu Gongsi, the crown prince of Hanzhong."
Among the generals and ministers, no one opposed the peace negotiation.
Sun Quan also knew what they were thinking.
Perhaps for him and Jiang Dong, this is the best result.
only
He first betrayed his alliance with Liu Gongsi, and then betrayed his alliance with Wei.
He, Sun Quan, has really become a dishonest and unjust person.
But he thought about the possible future career as king and the safety of his wife in Huarong.
He immediately ordered.
"Tzuyu, you will be responsible for the specific peace negotiations and discuss them with Mr. Liu. As for the bottom line, that's it."
Sun Quan and Zhuge Jin met face-to-face to discuss the matter, and after the latter listened, he immediately accepted the order.
"I will definitely live up to my lord's high expectations!"
Seeing Zhuge Jin's leaving figure, Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief.
That Mr. Liu is so disgusting, he dares to threaten me with his wife.
However, thinking about the possibility of cuckolding, Sun Quan had better hurry up and get the trainer back.
Why does my own woman need others to love her?
