Three Kingdoms: I, the Emperor of Wei, am loyal and pure!

At the end of July, the third year of Jian'an.

In the Han world, the autumn wind suddenly blows.

The weather is gradually getting cooler.

In the city of Wu County, the young new lord of Jiangdong, Sun Quan, had dark green eyes, filled with despair.

He had exhausted all previous agencies and sent Lu Meng to the front line.

The original intention was to take the opportunity to cause Cao's army to be infected with the disease and be forced to retreat, so as to keep Jiangdong safe.

However, he never expected that Cao Jun was already prepared to deal with the epidemic and quickly extinguished it.

Moreover, he took the initiative to publish the prescription and gained a reputation of benevolence and righteousness.

Sun Quan's reputation was actually affected. He stole the chicken but lost the rice...

Zhou Yu also sent a letter to Sun Quan, asking Sun Quan to purchase the herbs in the prescription and treat the soldiers' illnesses.

But Sun Quan felt that buying those medicinal materials cost too much, so it was better to use the same money to recruit various tribes in Shanyue and prepare ready-made troops.

Moreover, people from all over Shanyue have lived in the mountains filled with miasma for many years, so they are already immune to miasma diseases.

If you use that money to recruit Shanyue, you can get a fighting force that can be drawn out to fight.

There was even extra budget to send gifts and borrow troops from Shixie in Jiaozhou.

However, Sun Quan's calculation of economic accounts was clear, but he failed to calculate people's hearts accurately.

In other words, Sun Quan, who was mean and ungrateful, never cared about the thoughts and hearts of his soldiers from the beginning.

He knew that if he did this, the soldiers on the front line who contracted the disease would be dissatisfied.

That's why he sent a secret message to Zhou Yu, asking him to deal with the sick soldiers privately.

However, Zhou Yu did not do this, so the officers and soldiers fled one after another and returned to Cao's army.

Sun Quan was furious, changed his generals before the battle, and kidnapped Zhou Yu back to Wu County for questioning.

It's not that he didn't know the dangers of changing generals before the battle, but if Zhou Yu hadn't been replaced, all the Jiangdong soldiers would have fled back to Cao's army sooner or later...

Sun Quan originally thought that as long as Cheng Pu and Lu Meng could stay on the front line for a few more days.

The reinforcements from various Shanyue tribes that had been recruited with huge sums of money could also be put in place.

However, the development of the situation was not based on Sun Quan's ideas.

Before reinforcements from the Shanyue tribe arrived at the front line, Jiangdong's soldiers secretly communicated with Cao's army and volunteered their camps to surrender.

Cheng Pu was unable to save his life and committed suicide in the army.

Lu Meng tried to escape, but was kidnapped by his subordinates who mutinied.

Before being executed by Cao Jun, Lu Meng also exposed Sun Quan's instructions in public, which further ruined Sun Quan's reputation...

So, after Cao Jun broke through the defense line of Danyang County, he marched straight in. The Jiangdong army and people followed the scenery and betrayed Sun Quan.

Even many of the Shanyue tribes that Sun Quan had recruited with large sums of money surrendered directly to Cao's army.

The rest did not help Sun Quan fight, but simply dispersed and fled back to the mountains...

Cao Jun did not encounter any decent resistance, so he captured all parts of Wu County, leaving only the county and city.

"Report to the lord! Cao Jun's forward is already a hundred miles away!

Everyone asked to see the lord outside the mansion, and asked the lord to come to the city to preside over the defense!"

"Report to the Lord (agab)! Cao Jun's forward has reached fifty miles away!

Most of the people outside the mansion have dispersed. Anyone who wants to surrender to Cao's army!"

"Report to the lord! Cao Jun's forward has reached thirty miles away!

The Lord Sheriff asked the lord to make a decision quickly. Should he surrender or flee?"

Sun Quan sat on the main seat in a daze, and every few hours, reminders from his confidants sounded in his ears. However,

Sun Quan turned a deaf ear to the reports of the servants and did not react at all.

There is no greater sorrow than the heart. Death, Sun Quan was already desperate in his heart.

Because there were less than a few thousand defenders in Wu County...

The main force in Jiangdong had been taken away by Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu.

Later, Sun Quan asked Lu Meng and others Several generals, each with 3,000 troops and horses, and a total of more than 10,000 troops in reserve, went to the front line.

Here in the county, there were only less than 10,000 troops and horses left.

And as these days, Cao's army marched straight in, and Jiangdong's army Many civil and military officials, soldiers and civilians surrendered to Cao Jun openly or covertly. It can even be said that most of the civil and military officials in Jiangdong were ready to surrender as soon as Cao Jun arrived.

Even the nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in the original county were convinced. In panic, most of them fled.

Only three or four thousand veterans were still in the city.

These veterans were personally led by Sun Quan's father Sun Jian and brother Sun Ce. They were grateful for the kindness of Sun Jian and Sun Ce, so they did not disperse.

But , in Sun Quan's eyes, thousands of veterans could not stop the 200,000 Cao Army and the more than 100,000 surrendered Jiangdong Army.

So he was simply unwilling to make the last effort.

Even if there were some loyal Jiangdong civil and military personnel, such as Sun Quan His clan brother Sun Bi and his maternal uncle Wu Jing also tried to persuade Sun Quan to cheer up.

But they could not arouse Sun Quan's interest at all.

Even Sun Quan had not thought about escaping. Now he is ruined and his family has been betrayed. Even if he escapes from the county and looks at the world It was so big that there was almost nowhere to go.

Seeing how decadent Sun Quan was, even the old ministers who originally wanted to be loyal to the end were disappointed.

Even Sun Bi and Wu Jing walked away, leaving Wu The wife and Sun Jian's youngest daughter Sun Shangxiang were picked up to prevent Sun Quan from hurting others if he couldn't think about it.

Soon, Cao Jun came to Wujun City.

And the city gate was immediately blocked by the civil and military officials from Jiangdong. The aristocratic family was opened.

Without a single cry of killing, Cao Jun's vanguard, led by Xu Huang and Tai Shici, rode into the city. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Liu Yao, Jia Xu and others were also there Surrounded by the main force of the army, they set up camp outside the city.

Jiangdong Civil and Military Affairs invited Zhang Zhao, who was under house arrest by Sun Quan, and led by Yu Fan, Wu Jing, Sun Ben and others, and presented Jiangdong's Household Order Atlas , to express surrender

"Why have you come to surrender? Where is your lord Sun Quan?"

Liu Yao looked at Zhang Zhao, Wu Jing and others and said calmly. In the past, Liu Yao was a Yangzhou shepherd conferred by the imperial court. He was defeated by Sun Ce and lost his troops and retreated to Yuzhang County. Now he is still a minister of the imperial court.

The canonized Yangzhou Mu and the Grand Governor of the King's Division led their troops to the city and destroyed the foundation established by Sun Ce with their own hands. They were proud and proud.

Zhang Zhao, Wu Jing and others looked hesitant and didn't know what to say.

I couldn't say it. Sun Quan is already in despair, so he should just leave everything alone, right?

"Report! There's a fire in the city's mansion!"

At this moment, someone came to report that the mansion in the center of the city was on fire.

"It seems that Sun Quan is the son of the Jiangdong Tiger and the younger brother of the overlord Sun Ce. He is somewhat bloody. He committed suicide by walking through fire.……"

After Liu Yao heard this report, he sighed slightly.

Not only him, but Zhang Zhao, Wu Jing and others also thought so. They sighed in their hearts, but they also felt that this was a strong and honorable ending for the Lord of Jiangdong.

At least I didn’t insult Sun Jian and Sun Ce’s heroic reputation.[]

However, not long after, another report sounded:"Report! There is a man running out of the burning house, claiming to be Sun Quan and asking for surrender!"

As he said that, someone brought Sun Quan, whose face was blackened.

After everyone confirmed that this person was Sun Quan, Liu Yao couldn't help but snorted coldly:"Sun Quan, didn't you burn down your mansion and set yourself on fire?

How could you come to ask for surrender again!"

There was a hint of complexity and fear in Sun Quan's green eyes. :"I originally wanted to throw myself into the water, but I hated that the water was too cold.

I wanted to burn myself, but I hated that the fire was too hot.……"

Obviously, Sun Quan regarded other people's lives as trivial, but when it was his own turn, he was halfway through committing suicide, retreated directly, and ran out of the sea of ​​​​fire...

This repetition immediately made General Cao Jun and Jiangdong Wenwu present. , everyone looked down upon Sun Quan even more.

The water is too cold and the fire is too hot, just like the butt of jokes!

It would have been better to surrender from the beginning and not become a laughing stock for such an act...

But for Liu Yao and the others, capturing Sun Quan alive was a greater achievement than letting Sun Quan commit suicide.

Originally, they sat back and watched Sun Quan commit suicide because they wanted the son of Sun Jian, the lord of Jiangdong, to retain some dignity.

But Sun Quan was greedy for life and afraid of death and refused this honor.

Liu Yao, Jia Xu and the others naturally didn't mind being able to capture Sun Quan alive...

Jia Xu even stroked his beard and said with a meaningful smile:"That's good, it can make Sun Quan and Yuan Shu, Lu Bu, Yuan Shang, Gongsun Zan and others We met in the prison of Xudu.

When the world is peaceful, we will deal with it together.……"
