Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1375

Attack if there is a chance, but this kind of chance is very slim, everyone knows this.

The Ming army has fought to this point, and they will be very cautious in every step. They will never reveal a gap at this juncture, and they will take advantage of the loophole they took advantage of to seize the outer city.

Once they attack, it is the choice to die together.

Sun Ce is known as the little overlord of Jiangdong. He is not only the overlord of Western Chu who inherited his martial arts from the past, but he is also domineering and staunch in his actions, but his personality is sincere.

If he had learned one-tenth of Sun Quan's thinking, perhaps there would never be a possibility of being assassinated and killed in history. After all, there is only a [-]% chance of this kind of prince who was assassinated and died in history. Just appear.

Now his father is in the city.

It means that he has been pinched seven inches from his own body. He has the courage to be invincible, but he has no room to move.

This kind of aggrieved is [-] times more humiliating than the defeat in Jingzhou, but no matter how humiliating and uncomfortable it is, in Sun Ce's mind, it is not as important as Sun Jian's safety.

Sun Jian's safety was always the first concern.

So he could only grit his teeth and admit it.

The conditions can be negotiated, if it is not enough, this hostage cannot be given. Who knows what tricks the Ming army will play after they arrive in Chaisang, and once they arrive in Chaisang, the situation will not be controlled by the state of Wu. Chaisang is far away from the Ming state The territory is just a step away.

He would never allow his father to take risks.

This is his bottom line.

"Gongjin, go talk again and tell them that any conditions can be negotiated, but the father must not leave Jianye. If they don't want to, then fight!"

Sun Ce gritted his teeth. Zhan was a helpless choice, something that would happen after the talks collapsed. As long as there were still talks, he would not be able to hand over Sun Jian's life to God's luck. He said in a low voice : "It's really inappropriate to talk about it. You can tell them that I am willing to bind myself and send them out of Jiangdong myself!"

This is his concession.

He also knew in his heart that even if the conditions were negotiated, the Ming army would not be able to loosen the inner city so easily. If the Ming army wanted to leave Jianye, they had to have an amulet.

It is impossible for him to let Sun Jian take risks.

Then the only chance is to risk yourself.

Sun Ce was willing to do it if he could keep Sun Jian safe by committing a personal risk. In his opinion, the state of Wu could live without him, and he still had his second and third younger brothers, who could inherit the state of Wu.

But Sun Jian is impossible.

If Sun Jian is gone, the state of Wu will be in chaos.

Whether it's for Wu Guo, or the responsibility and duty of being a son, he will give himself without hesitation in exchange for his father's safety.

"Bofu?"

Zhou Yu frowned. To him, Sun Ce was a brother, brother-in-law, and the person he respected the most in his life. He didn't want his best brother to risk his life.

"Gongjin, don't say any more!"

Sun Ce waved his hand and said softly: "We have already lost a city, and we have to admit it. It is impossible to be unscathed. Whether it is for Wu or for our Sun family, I would rather die instead of my father, because Wu You can't have Sun Bofu, you can't have a great king!"

Zhou Yu and Wu Jing fell silent.

This kind of choice requires courage. Once Sun Jian dies, the position of great treasure can only fall on Sun Ce. However, Sun Ce took the risk. of.

........................

Zhou Yu wanted to cut through the mess quickly, and didn't make Zhuge Liang wait for a long time. He didn't even make Zhuge Liang wait for a full day, but it was only half a day.

In the evening he signaled for a second negotiation.

Zhuge Liang readily attended the appointment.

On the suspension bridge, the two once again started a war of words and guns. You come and go, it is comparable to a bloody battle in full swing, and the fighting spirit of both sides is raging.

After an hour of negotiations, a consensus was finally reached.

The Ming army will withdraw its troops tomorrow. Before the retreat, Wu Guo announced to the world that it will withdraw from the alliance against the Ming Kingdom, stick to its own territory, and completely withdraw from this confrontation. The first to admit defeat will be the last.

Then Wu State will compensate Ming State [-] million yuan later, and separate the two counties of Cangwu and Hepu in Jiaozhou to Ming State, and only keep Nanhai County in Jiaozhou.

The last condition is that on the day when the Ming army mobilizes troops, Sun Ce will enter the camp with his own body and personally escort them out of Jiangdong.

This is an alliance under the city.

Wu Guo was very humiliated and signed an agreement on the alliance under the city to reach an agreement that Wu Jun could retreat and leave Jiangdong.

………………

Jianye City at night is silent.

Every household closed their doors and courtyards, and the streets were full of Ming army soldiers who were like wolves and tigers. Although the Ming army has not seen any brutal behavior these days, no one can guarantee that the Ming army will be a wolf one day. The sex is big, and the city is directly slaughtered.

When the city was first broken, the people tremblingly waited for the cruel treatment after the city was broken. They could only beg from the bottom of their hearts that the catastrophe would pass sooner.

As the capital city of the Wu Kingdom, it has fallen into such a crisis.

At this moment, the people of the Wu Kingdom's sense of belonging to the Wu Kingdom has dropped below zero. It is difficult for a court that cannot even protect the capital to win the support of the people.

However, in the next two days, although the Ming army broke through the city, they did not actually cause any harm to them. They just asked everyone not to go out. There were no scenes of those wolf-like soldiers pushing open the gate and rushing in, burning, killing and looting Appear.

This is good news for the people of Wu State in Jianye City.

Similarly, it also gave them a certain understanding of the Ming Dynasty, and they knew the whole thing at a glance. Some things, just by hearing about them, they would naturally have preconceptions, but seeing is believing, and what they see is different from what they hear. Let them have doubts about this matter.

What they don't know is that the discipline of the Ming army is the most strict among the princes today.

Because of the support of discipline, at present, Jianye City has not caused many fearless casualties, but some involvement in the war is inevitable.

But after the war, even if the Ming army patrolled to the door, they would not enter easily, because every army has a military police to supervise, but all the sons who go to the battlefield have a beast, and strict discipline is against the Ming army. The greatest restraint of animal nature.

Over the years, Mu Jing asked Huang Zhong to personally inspect the Military Judiciary Department in order to develop this kind of restraint in the army. The army is like a knife to him, and this knife cannot hurt himself, so he must have A scabbard, the justices-martial is the scabbard.

In this way, not only did the people of the Wu Kingdom breathe a sigh of relief, but it was also a good thing for the Ming army. At least they did not need to waste too much time and energy on the people in the city.

They can devote themselves to preparing for the retreat.

"Is there enough food and grass?"

Gan Ning did not expect that the negotiations would go so smoothly and he would not be able to take down Sun Jian. If Sun Ce was taken down, it would be an unexpected gain. The state of Wu lost an outstanding heir, and its lethality would be weakened by most in the future.

"Every food and grass in the city has been looted, but we can't bring so much. In order to break through smoothly, the food and grass that can last for a month are enough for us to kill!"

Zhuge Liang said softly.

"I have asked Jingwu Division to send my military order to Jiang Cheng through other channels, ordering the main forces of the two battalions left behind by Jiang Cheng to drive warships to meet us at the mouth of the Yangtze River, and we will be safe when we leave the mouth of the Yangtze River. The fighting power of the warship can easily break out of the encirclement, and when the time comes, the troops will be divided into two groups, one to go to Chaisang and the other to go to the coast, on the one hand, it can divert their attention, and on the other hand, it can also disperse our danger!"

Gan Ning said: "The road to retreat is full of dangers. No one can guarantee that we can withdraw smoothly. Just in case, we will leave a way out for ourselves. Your Majesty has spent countless efforts to build the combat effectiveness of our two navy divisions." , can’t all be folded here!”

"Ok!"

Zhuge brightened his head.

"Go get ready!" Gan Ning waved his hands and said to the captains, "When the sun rises, it's time for us to go home!"

"promise!"

The generals took the lead.

………………

inner city.

After two days of tranquility, Sun Jian did not relax a bit. He still stood on the top of the city, overlooking the outside of the city, ready for a bloody battle at any time.

"Your Majesty, there is news from outside the city that they have negotiated peace!"

Huang Gai's body was covered with six or seven scars, and the blood was seeping, but he still held a weapon and stood firmly by Sun Jian's side. It was impossible for him to go down to recuperate until the battle was over for a day.

Although the inner city has been trapped and basically cut off any relationship with the outside world, after the negotiation was successful, the Ming army relaxed some boundaries and allowed the two sides to exchange some information.

After all, there is another very important point. For Wu Guo, only the terms of the peace talks that Sun Wentai personally admits can be regarded as the real peace talks. The leather is completely clean, and he can't represent Wu Guo. After all, he is just an heir who can give up at any time.

And the king is the orthodox leader of Wu.

"Peace talks?"

Sun Jian felt a little distressed, he knew that Sun Ce was a proud person, how could he admit defeat so easily, if it wasn't Sun Jian who was trapped in the inner city today, no matter who it was, even if it was matched with the entire court of the Wu Kingdom, Sun Ce would kill a blood flow , will never admit defeat.

Sun Ce is for himself.

"What about the conditions?" Sun Jian's voice was hoarse.

Huang Gai lowered his head and remained silent.

"Say!"

Sun Jian drank coldly.

Huang Gai had no choice but to tell Sun Jian the news that came in from outside. Even if it made Sun Jian feel very incompetent, there was nothing he could do.

"Apology, compensation, land cession!" Sun Jian sneered sarcastically: "We still need hostages, and my country of Wu can accept such a condition. Sun Bofu, Sun Bofu, you are disappointing Gu!"

"The eldest prince is also worried about the safety of the great king. Otherwise, with the character of the eldest prince, he would rather die together than accept such an alliance under the city!"

Huang Gai said analytically.

Sun Jian was silent, so why didn't he know that compared to his second son, Sun Quan, he was too thoughtful and a little indifferent. His natural personality was like this, and he seemed a little cold to his brothers and sisters, and to himself as his father. How filial he pretended to be, he couldn't hide what was in his bones from his own father.

But exactly so, Sun Jian believed that Sun Quan was born to be a monarch.

As for Sun Ce, he is good in everything, capable, has a city, can gain a foothold in the court, is invincible on the battlefield, can govern the country with literature, and can command the army with martial arts, but he has one shortcoming, that is, he is too emotional.

Such a person, when he becomes a king, is finally affected by his own shortcomings, and it is difficult for him to last long.

For the sake of Wu, he had to lift Sun Quan out, but in his heart, he always cared about the most outstanding eldest son.

"It's Gu's fault!"

The aura on Sun Jian's body was somewhat bleak, with his hands on his back, and his eyes looking far away, he looked at the soldiers of the Ming army lined up like tigers below the city, and said solemnly: "If he hadn't been trapped in the enemy camp alone, how could Bofu be in a dilemma?" In this situation, he is willing to owe the alliance under the city, just for the sake of Gu's safety, and also wants to fight against the crime of defeat for Gu, once the alliance under the city breaks out in the future, his reputation will definitely be ruined, no matter how rare it is, the recognition of the people of Wu Kingdom!"

You can't look at one side of things. If the alliance under the city is really signed, it will have a long-term impact on the state of Wu. At that time, someone must take the blame, otherwise the court of the state of Wu will not be able to pass the test of the people.

The best thing for Sun Ce at this time is to stay on the Shanyue battlefield. He has the military exploits to conquer Shanyue, and no one can do anything to him. At that time, he will lose the support of the people, and he will even be directly impeached and abdicated.

Unfortunately, in the midst of the limelight, he rushed back to Jianye.

It was Sun Quan.

Wu Jun is closer. The soldiers and horses he recruited should have appeared in Jianye a long time ago, but now there are no traces, soldiers and horses, and people. This is enough to see that although Sun Quan is young, he can use tactics It cannot be underestimated.

"Your Majesty, at this moment, the safety of your Majesty is still the most important thing!"

Huang Gai remonstrated and said.

"Gu has already lost, Gu can't be Liu Bang, nor Han Xin, can't hide, can't kneel down, even if Wu Guo loses Gu, but Wu Guo admits defeat, then it is not Wu Guo!" Sun Jian shook his head, There was a hint of firmness in his eyes, and he said: "Send someone to tell Sun Bofu that the alliance letter has been delivered, and also tell the Ming army commander that tomorrow morning, under the inner city wall, Gu will sign it himself. There is no Gu's signature. Wu Guo will not admit any defeat to the outside world!"

"promise!"

Huang Gai took a deep look at Sun Jian.

He has known Sun Jian for a long, long time. He used to be a knight-errant who traveled the world with congenial spirits. He was also a brother who joined the army and wanted to do great things. He even assisted him in fighting from Changsha. The heroes who have walked all the way to today have fallen asleep countless times and talked all night.

He could interpret Sun Jian's every move, even a subtle expression.

At this moment, his heart felt a little sad.

But no matter what the situation was, he would follow Sun Jian without hesitation. No matter what Sun Jian wanted to do, he would be the one who escorted Sun Jian.

So he didn't object.

"Fair!"

At the end, Sun Jian called Huang Gai to stop him.

"Your Majesty has orders!"

"no!"

Sun Jian shook his head, and said softly: "It's just that I have some feelings. Back then, you guys were congenial to me, and angrily wanted to make a big career, serve the court, and be loyal to the king. I hope that one day I can be named a marquis and a minister, but These years of life and death, Darong died in Guanzhong, Yigong also fell in Guanzhong, De Mao died in Xiling for my son, one by one, do you regret it?"

"Never!"

Huang Gai said firmly: "I have always firmly believed that elder brother can become the supreme in the world and end this chaotic world!"
