this moment.
Sun Ce did have murderous intentions towards Zhou Yu.
Although Zhou Yu was his good friend, how could he not be disappointed and angry when he made such a big mistake?
As violent as he is, haven't he killed many people out of anger over the years?
"The Lord calmed down his anger, and Zhi felt that it was indeed strange that he had failed in this battle."
At the critical moment, Zhu Zhi suddenly spoke to dissuade him.
Sun Ce was slightly shocked, the murderous intent in his eyes faded a little, and he turned back to glare at Zhu Zhi.
"Zhi Nai participated in it personally, and even personally overthrew the old general on behalf of the Duke, and went to Liu Ying to feign surrender."
"Frankly speaking, Governor Zhou's plan is indeed flawless and unparalleled in its ingenuity."
"The detailed layout of this plan was also reported to Governor Zhou and the lord. I believe the lord also knows the essence of this plan."
"Such an unpredictable plan, even if Zhang Liang is reincarnated, Zhi thinks it will be impossible to see through it."
"Zhi really can't figure it out. Who in the world can see through it?"
"Even if Deng Mu was scheming, Zhi didn't believe that he had this ability. Sun
Ce looked blank and said coldly:
"If Deng Mu hadn't seen through it, where would this defeat have come from?"
"You have said so much, what do you want to say? Zhu
Zhi took a deep breath and said solemnly:
"Zhi thought that it was probably a spy in our army who leaked Governor Zhou's plan to Liu Bei."
"Because of this, Liu Bei was able to take advantage of the situation and defeat our army."
As soon as these words came out,
Sun Ce's face suddenly changed.
Zhou Yu was also shocked, as if he was suddenly awakened.
"What you said makes sense. I was puzzled before. How could that big-eared thief see through my plan?"
"After what you said, there must be a spy in our army who is secretly seeking refuge with Liu Bei!"
Zhou Yu nodded repeatedly and hurriedly agreed with Zhu Zhi.
It was as if Zhu Zhi's explanation made him grasp a life-saving straw. Only by firmly believing can he regain his self-confidence.
"Then who is so brave that he dares to betray me, Sun Ce!"
Sun Ce's face was as sharp as a knife, and anger rose again in his brows.
"There are only a few people who know about this plan. Apart from the Lord and the Governor of Zhou, only Generals Zhi and Huang, Lu Zijing, and Kuai Yue know about it."
"General Huang and Kuai Yue were killed by Liu Bei, so they must not be spies."
"Zhi was deeply favored by the late Duke Wentai and his lord, and he must repay the favor with death, let alone betray his lord."
"In this case, only Lu..."
Zhu Zhi coughed a few times and did not finish saying the name.
"Lu Su?"
Sun Ce and Zhou Yu called out the name in unison.
Zhou Yu looked shocked and shook his head anxiously:
"Zijing is a close friend of me, and he is also a man of justice and wealth. I don't believe that he would secretly communicate with Liu Bei! Zhu
Zhi sighed softly and said: 250
"I heard that the ancestors of Lu Zijing were in business for generations and were born as businessmen."
"Governor Zhou, the reason why you and he became close friends is simply because he helped you with food and grass, and we formed a friendship because of profit."
"Now, who can guarantee that Liu Bei will not promise him huge benefits to induce him to secretly defect?"
"Businessmen, after all, it is their nature to value profits over justice."
Zhu Zhi was born in a noble family, and his words naturally showed contempt for businessmen.
Zhou Yu felt shuddered in his heart and couldn't help but fell silent.
Zhu Zhi's"reasonable and well-founded" inference left him speechless for a while.
Lu Su His background as a businessman is his flaw.
In this situation, only Lu Su is the most suspect.
"If you really let me know that it was Lu Su who betrayed me, I will never let him go~~"
Sun Ce clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. at this time.
Pan Zhang entered and presented a letter to
"To inform my lord, a messenger came from Xiakou and delivered a handwritten letter from Liu Bei."
Liu Bei's letter?
The three people in the hall were slightly shocked, and their eyes were all focused on the silk letter.
Just after winning a great victory, a personal letter was immediately sent. What did Liu Bei want to do? Could it be that he wanted to show off his power and humiliate him
?
No?
Sun Ce didn't bother to pick it up, and waved his hand to Pan Zhang to read it out in public.
Pan Zhang opened the letter and read it in public.
Sun Ce's originally disdainful expression gradually began to twist, and bloodshot eyes began to become densely covered in his wide-open eyes.
Zhou Yu and Zhu The two officials looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.
In this letter, Liu Bei actually proposed to use 5,000 Jiangdong prisoners in exchange for Lu Su's family members!
That's 5,000 soldiers and horses.
How many old, weak, women and children were Liu Bei willing to exchange?
Besides, after all, why did Liu Bei want to exchange Lu Su's family members?
The only explanation is that Lu Su must have surrendered Liu Bei!
"Lord, Nalu Zi Jingding has surrendered to Liu"
"He was just a subordinate to his lord, but Liu Bei was willing to use five thousand men and horses in exchange for his family, which shows that Liu Bei valued him."
"Zhi guessed that it was probably because Lu Su had made great contributions that Liu Bei had to do this."
"As for Lu Su, what great contributions could he have made for Liu Bei?"
Zhu Zhi asked sternly.
What great achievement?
No need to ask, it was naturally the great achievement of leaking Zhou Yu's plan to Liu Bei, helping Liu Bei to use it, and achieving a complete victory!
"Good on you, Lu Su!"
"I, Sun Ce, treat you well, but you dare to betray me and take refuge with that big-eared thief!"
"If I don't kill you with my own hands, I swear I won't be a human being!"
Sun Ce cursed loudly and was extremely angry.
Obviously, he was convinced that Lu Su secretly communicated with Liu Bei.
Zhou Yu also had deep disappointment on his face, shook his head and sighed:
"Lu Zijing, Lu Zijing, I regard you as my confidant, but I didn’t expect you to betray me and my lord!"
In the hall, several Jiangdong ministers scolded and disappointed Lu Su.
"Lord, how should I reply to this letter from Liu Bei?"
Pan Zhang asked cautiously.
He didn't mention it, but when he mentioned Sun Ce, he became even more furious, and his anger rushed into his head.
"Lu Su, you cheating traitor, do you still want your family back?"
"Send me an order to arrest Lu Su's family members and imprison them immediately, and behead them all!"
"I want to destroy his whole family!"
Sun Ce's violent nature broke out and he wanted to kill people in a rage.
Zhu Zhi was shocked and did not expect that Sun Ce would react so violently.
Originally, he just wanted to expose Lu Su's defection, but he did not expect to put Lu Su's whole family to death.
After all, the trouble is not harmful to his family.
Unexpectedly, he forgot that Sun Ce was good at killing, and went on a killing spree in anger.
Zhu Zhi wanted to persuade him, but he knew the young lord's temper. At this time, he was angry, so he only tried to persuade him. Maybe he was asking for trouble.
He had no choice but to look at Zhou Yu, hinting that Zhou Yu would plead for mercy.
Zhou Yu was silent for a long time, and after hesitating again and again, he just sighed.
Although he knew that Lu Su had been betrayed based on a letter from Liu Bei alone. He has turned his back and surrendered to Liu Bei, which does seem a bit far-fetched.
But he has no choice.
Someone must take the blame for the defeat of this battle.
Otherwise, he will bear all the blame for the defeat alone.
Jiangdong Those generals who are dissatisfied with him will definitely attack in groups, and Sun Ce will also lose trust in him.
This is something he will never accept.
Since Lu Su is suspected of collaborating with the enemy, then he will bear the blame.
"I can't lose my military power, I still have to bear the humiliation and take revenge on that big-eared thief and Deng Mu!"
"As long as I can wash away my shame, I can give up everything——"
Zhou Yu touched the scorch marks on his face, and a determination as cold as iron flashed in his eyes.
…
Xiakou.
More than 10,000 elite infantrymen are ready to go north to Wancheng.
In the mansion.
Before Liu Bei left, he hosted a banquet in honor of Lu Su.
"Zijing, I have prepared a letter to Sun Ce, offering five thousand surrendered soldiers in exchange for your family."
"I believe that your family will be reunited in a few days."
Liu Bei smiled and revealed the news to Lu Su.
Lu Su's body trembled violently, and his face that was originally clouded was instantly replaced by surprise.
Of course Liu Bei knew that this banquet was to honor the corporal who wanted to surrender to him.
Whether out of loyalty or concern for the life and death of his family, Lu Su has been thinking about how to politely refuse Liu Bei's kindness again.
Who would have expected that Liu Bei would suddenly reveal such a big deal. Although you
, Lu Su, He is a little famous, but he is far from being comparable to the world-famous scholars like Xun Yu!
This Liu Xuande can't hold a single state, but he is willing to surrender five thousand soldiers in exchange for a little person like you?
Lu Su really can't believe it , Liu Bei can actually value himself so much! (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
"How can Su be so virtuous, but Liu Shijun treats him like this? Su really..."
Lu Su's voice was hoarse. He was extremely flattered at this time and didn't know how to respond to Old Liu's kindness.
Liu Bei, however, looked sincere and said seriously. :
"Zi Yu said that Zi Jing, you have the style of a king and you are a great talent in the world, and you will definitely be able to help our country."
"If I can get help from Ziyu, how can a mere five thousand soldiers be surrendered?"
Lu Su was shocked again and looked at Deng Mu in surprise.
He really couldn't figure out why he and the legendary Deng Mu had never met before. Why did the other party think so highly of him (bdbe) and actually asked Liu Bei? Highly recommended
"Zijing, I still say the same thing. In today's world, it is not only the Lord who chooses his ministers, but also the ministers who choose their masters."
"Compared with Sun Ce and his master, it is clear at a glance who is the wise master of the world."
"If you follow Sun Ce, the most you can do is assist a Han traitor who is separatist."
"If you assist the lord, you can help him re-establish the Han Dynasty, and your name will go down in history and be famous for generations to come."
"It's up to you to choose where to go."
Deng Mu gave another good advice.
This time, he released the big killer weapon of"re-establishing the Han Dynasty".
For people like Lu Su who were not short of money and had lofty ambitions, re-establishing the Han Dynasty would leave a name in history. Undoubtedly very tempting[]
Otherwise, Cao Cao would not have recruited countless heroes in a short period of time with the emperor's banner of righteousness.
To put it bluntly, these heroes are not going for you, Cao Cao, but for the ideal of supporting the Han Dynasty.
Deng Mu's big killer weapon exploded in Lu Su's heart, causing him to suddenly be ignited with passion.
"Liu Shijun..."
Lu Su secretly clenched his fists, his mind was agitated, and his psychological defense collapsed in just one thought.
At this moment,
Chen Dao walked into the hall with a solemn expression.
"Let me inform my lord, there is news about Chai Sang. Liu
Bei's eyes lit up and he said hurriedly:"But Sun Ce has agreed to exchange for Zijing's family. When will he send them?""
Chen Dao sighed
"Reporting back to the lord, Sun Ce rejected the lord’s exchange terms."
"He also believed that Lu Zijing secretly communicated with the lord and leaked the secret of Zhou Yu's fire attack plan, causing his tragic defeat."
"Sun Ce was so angry that he ordered the entire family of Lu Zijing to be killed!"
In the lobby, it was as if thunder exploded.
Everyone, including Deng Mu, also had a look of surprise in their eyes.
"Sun Ce——"
Lu Su let out a miserable scream and fell down on the table, tears streaming down his face in an instant.
Liu Bei looked horrified and said angrily:
"Is Sun Ce crazy? Even if he refuses to exchange, why is he so cruel and ruthless that he kills Zi Jing's family?"
What Sun Ce did was completely beyond the scope of Liu's understanding.
After all, in history, he treated Huang Quan's family well after Huang Quan surrendered to Wei.
Whether he abandoned him intentionally or was forced to Old Liu had almost done his best to not sin as much as his family.
He couldn't figure out why Sun Ce killed Lu Su's family before Lu Su surrendered him.
He would rather not surrender 5,000 soldiers than simply surrender. Kill to vent your anger?
"In the battle of Xiakou, countless soldiers and generals were lost."
"This fiasco required a scapegoat, and Lu Zijing was the scapegoat chosen by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to maintain their reputation."
"What's more, Sun Ce is a violent and murderous person. It's not surprising that he committed such atrocities in a rage."
After the initial accident, Deng Mu immediately saw through Sun Ce's motives.
Liu Bei suddenly understood, and he couldn't help but feel ashamed on his face, and blamed himself:
"Bei is kind-hearted and wants to exchange Zi Jing for your family, so that Zi Jing can have no worries for you and can assist Bei in reviving the Han Dynasty."
"Unexpectedly, my move actually angered Sun Ce and caused harm to Zijing’s family.Poisonous hand"
"Zijing, I can’t help you."
Lu Su wiped away the tears from his eyes and forced himself to calm down.
"That Sun Ce is moody, violent and prone to killing!"
"They want to use me as a scapegoat for the defeat in order to restore their prestige."
"The murder of the Su family was all caused by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, and had nothing to do with the envoy! Lu
Su said something sad and angry, then took a deep breath and bowed deeply to Liu Bei:
"Su was honored by your envoy for your support. Today I feel repentant and willing to surrender to my envoy!"
"Su please be the vanguard. In order for you to conquer the east of the Yangtze River, I swear to kill the two thieves Sun Ce and Zhou Yu!"
Lu Su surrendered.
Not only did he surrender, he was also filled with the fire of revenge and vowed to be incompatible with Sun Ce.
"Zijing, please get up quickly."
Liu Bei hurriedly helped Lu Su up.
Seeing a great talent join him, Old Liu was naturally very happy.
But when he thought that Lu Su's family members were all harmed by Sun Ce, he felt sorry but couldn't be happy.
"My lord, Su is fully aware of Chaisang's city defense and Jiangdong's army."
"Many Huainan generals under Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, such as Jiang Qin and Ding Feng, all recommended Su to Sun Ce."
"Su Ke secretly revised the book and persuaded these people to turn to the lord and act as an internal agent."
"Please lead your army immediately and take advantage of the situation to move eastward. Su Bi will help your lord capture Chaisang and kick open the door to Jiangdong!"
Lu Su is eager for revenge and can't wait to ask Liu Bei to immediately use troops against Sun Ce and Jiangdong.
Liu Bei looked at Deng Mu, but he was a little embarrassed.
Now the battle of Xiakou has just ended, and the soldiers have not rested yet, so they immediately use troops against Chaisang It was obviously too hasty.
Moreover, according to the previous agreement with Deng Mu, he had to go to Wancheng first and teach Cao Cao a lesson.
"Now that Zijing has surrendered and the situation has changed, we should adapt accordingly."
"Well, my lord can continue to station troops in Xiakou and prepare for the eastward march to Chaisang at any time."
"This trip to Wancheng will allow General Guan to lead his army, and Mu will go alone to join General Guan to deal with Cao Cao."
"Within ten days, Mu will defeat Cao Cao and come to join the lord!"
"At that time, we will go eastward with the current to get firewood!"
Deng Mu adjusted his strategy in time and formulated a new military strategy for Lao Liu. He defeated Cao Cao within ten days.
What a crazy tone.
Lu Su, who was originally angry, couldn't help being surprised by Deng Mu's bold tone.
"Cao Cao used his troops like a god, and his powerful strategy far surpassed that of Sun Ce."
"His subordinates Xun Yu, Guo Jia and others were also wiser than Zhou Yu."
"Su heard that Cao Cao had nearly 50,000 troops in Wancheng. Can Commander Deng defeat Cao Cao in ten days?"
Lu Su is also an honest man, and he directly expressed his fear of Cao Cao's strength.
When Liu Bei was reminded, he couldn't help but ask:
"Ziyu, if Yunchang goes north to Wancheng, he can only bring more than 10,000 troops at most."
"Including Wancheng Huo Jun's 5,000 soldiers and horses, the combined force is only 15,000."
"Do you really have a chance to defeat Cao Cao within ten days with these fifteen thousand troops?"
Deng Mu smiled faintly and asked:
"My Lord, when did Mu ever break his promise?"
Liu Bei was shocked.
Looking back on this journey, no matter how many enemies there were and outnumbered, Deng Mu always made every effort and never lost.
Even if Cao Cao was fighting this time, he was far stronger than Liu Biao and Sun Ce. Let's talk.
With this in mind,
Liu Bei was no longer worried and said happily:
"The military strategist has no plans left. If he said that Cao Cao would be defeated in ten days, then he must be able to defeat him in ten days!"
"Bei and Zijing are sitting here in Xiakou waiting for the military advisor to return in triumph!".
