Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1377

Sun Jian's sudden attack was beyond everyone's expectations, including Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang thought about many, many contingencies, but he really didn't expect that this one suddenly happened, and he was just a little bit short, and he was directly beheaded by Sun Jian.

Fortunately, the Ming army has always been very strict about the safety of officers.

Although Zhuge Liang did not wear battle armor on the outside, he was wearing inner armor on the inside of his robe. This inner armor is made of fine steel, and there are very few in the Ming Dynasty. The special supply is basically a general of the army, such as The level of General Zhonglang, perhaps only a strategist at the level of General Zhonglang can have it.

But such a strong inner armor was still scratched by Sun Jian's sword, and the blade pierced through the skin, but fortunately, it did not cause more damage.

Zhuge Liang retreated quickly and stood firm. The left and right guards had already come up to protect him, and the archers behind him had already aimed at Sun Jian. At this time, even if Sun Jian had a strong fighting power, he could not kill him. It's safe.

But his face is not very good-looking.

The entire elegant face looked a little ferocious, he raised his head slightly, looked at Sun Jian in front of the gate, and looked at the back of the inner city, and he didn't even intend to open the gate to come out for reinforcements.

His heart was half cold.

At this moment, he already understood Sun Jian's intention.

This is death will.

Sun Wentai wanted to sacrifice his life for righteousness, in order to restore Wu's reputation, to preserve Wu's backbone, and even for Wu's military spirit that had begun to collapse.

He has only one choice.

"Wu Wang's sword is really fierce and unparalleled. Liang is really lucky, and he learned it!" Zhuge Liang himself lost to Sun Jian this time. After all, losing is not losing. It is impossible for Sun Jian to underestimate him.

"Old and useless!"

Holding the hilt of the sword, Sun Jian plunged the sword upside down into the ground in front of him. His eyes were cold, he glanced over it, and said indifferently: "I think I, Sun Wentai, have been rolling around in Jiangdong for dozens of years. With a loud battle, I was beaten." Known as the fierce tiger of Jiangdong, but the old tiger has lost all his teeth, and he can't even kill a scholar in close quarters, what a pity!"

He really wanted to drag Zhuge Liang to hell.

It would be best for Gan Ning to show up too.

In this way, he can directly drag both of them to hell, and no one would think that when he is so weak, he will suddenly attack and catch them by surprise.

Even if he has no internal energy now, but the foundation of a martial arts practitioner is still there, as long as the strike is fast enough, killing someone is not a problem.

Unexpectedly, it still missed.

This frustrates him.

Zhuge Liang touched the wound on his abdomen and saw that the stainless steel inner armor had been cut open. He felt a sense of survival in his heart. Thanks to the inner armor, otherwise he would have been buried here today.

Since he already knew Sun Wentai's plan, he couldn't give him this chance. He gritted his teeth, waved his hand, and ordered secretly: Once he makes a move, he will do whatever it takes to catch the living!
He gritted his teeth and ordered directly: "Prepare to attack the inner city!"

"Listen clearly, those in the city, if you don't want your king to be captured by us, quickly open the city gate!"

At this time, the inner city was broken, even if Sun Jian died, there were still Wu's civil and military officials who could be used as hostages, and there was still a chance to retreat completely.

"You don't need to be so troublesome, Gu, I have already ordered that as long as Gu leaves the city, no one can open this city unless it is breached. This is Gu's last military order!"

Sun Jian seemed to know Zhuge Liang's plan very well. He smiled, and slowly raised the long sword in his hand. Pointing at the edge of the sword, he swept it around, and said calmly: "At the top of the city, everyone is looking at Gu. I know what I'm going to do!"

"Similarly, you are very clear that until now, you can't catch Gu. The only person in the world who can catch Gu is Gu himself. No one else can, unless it's a corpse!"

His words are domineering and strong.

The will to die in my heart has been revealed.

"King Wu, this is the end of the matter, why bother to burn everything?" Zhuge Liang said gloomyly.

If Sun Jian were to die, the Ming army would be in a position where offense and defense would switch in this battle. Next, the chances of the Ming army breaking through the siege were less than [-]%.

You know, the underdog will win.

If Sun Jian was really willing to give up his life, then the whole Wu army would burst out with a fierce evil spirit, fierce as fire, and sweep the entire battlefield.

When the time comes, there will be endless battles.

It is really uncertain how many Wu Jun can break out of Jianye City.

"Everyone has to be responsible for what he has done. If you are alone, you should too. When you easily entered our Jianye Capital, you should have expected today's scene!"

Sun Jian said very calmly: "Your Ming army defeated my Jianye, which is the defeat of my country of Wu. Be a man, you have to admit when you lose. Back then, the overlord of Western Chu was not as good as Wujiang. That was his punishment for losing!"

Sun Jian said: "I am the monarch of the Wu Kingdom, and I also want to have an explanation for myself. tomorrow!"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly raised his sword to the sky, and roared angrily, the sound waves could travel far, at least above the inner city, thousands of sons of men could all hear clearly.

"Listen, Son of Great Wu, because of Gu's ignorance today, the enemy invaded the Jianye capital, messed up our Jianye city, and harmed our Jianye people. Gu is an unforgivable crime!"

"I am willing to take responsibility for my own crimes, and I hope the people of Wu will be punished!"

"However, even if the country loses alone, the country of Wu is undefeated. Today, our country of Wu has hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, which have already been stationed outside the city. In a few days, the enemy will be wiped out in the city. But it is not advisable to cast a mouse because of loneliness. !"

"Today, I am willing to take responsibility for my own mistakes, and I am willing to accept the crime and punish those who are in front of the armed forces and the people!"

"Of course, I, Da Wu, must not be blackmailed. My son, Da Wu, would rather have broken pieces of jade than tiles!"

"After the lonely death, the king's position will be passed on to Sun Bofu!"

Finished.

His sword shot out suddenly, as fast as lightning, and it slashed across his head, a stream of blood spattered three feet high, and a tall figure fell slowly under the sunlight.

A generation of Jiangdong tigers fell.

"Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty!"

On the top of the city, bursts of shouts sounded angrily.

Only Huang Gai Eryi didn't understand, he didn't seem to have the slightest reaction, he didn't even open the city, he didn't rush out to save people, he just stared blankly and quietly.

But the palm of his hand was dripping with blood from his nails.

Zhang Zhao didn't know when he appeared on the top of the city. His eyes were full of tears, and his face was full of tears. When he entered Jiangdong and met the Lord of Ming Dynasty, Sun Jian was like him.

But now, he is powerless to protect his benefactor.

He knew very well that Sun Jian could not die. Even if the inner city was breached, they would still have a chance. Even if Wu Chaotang was slaughtered, Sun Jian might not be beheaded.

But for Wu Guo.

Also for the shame brought about by this battle.

Sun Jian chose the most steadfast path. He wanted to use his own death to win a round for this battle. Otherwise, Wu would end up in an irreparable end.

The current him, seems to be exactly the same as the Overlord of Western Chu back then. Even if there is a glimmer of life, it is difficult for him to survive, not only because of the current situation, but also because they cannot live with the pride in their hearts.

"Zhao, send off the King!"

Zhang Zhao knelt down, faced the city, and shouted loudly.

"Congratulations to the king!"

"Congratulations to the king!"

Countless soldiers knelt down abruptly, and the sound waves sounded one after another, as if they could break through the nine heavens, it was very ferocious, and even spread continuously towards the outer city.

……

"Damn it!" At this moment, Zhuge Liang seemed to be able to feel the chill from the nether world.

This time, he was tricked by Sun Jian.

"Boom boom boom!!!"

At this time, the sound of siege like a shocking wave came directly from the outer city.

The main force of the Wu army began to attack from the outer city.

The timing is just right.

Zhuge Liang couldn't take care of this much anymore, he had to go back immediately and discuss with Gan Ning, otherwise they would have to wait for the entire army to be wiped out here.

When he returned to the central army, Gan Ning also had a gloomy look on his face. He used his binoculars to see clearly what happened in the inner city. The most important thing to intercept the arrows was that he shot them himself, and his reaction was fast enough. , but still half as slow.

"General Gan Zhonglang, we are going to change our strategic plan!"

Zhuge Liang said directly: "Sun Wentai's suicide has pushed us into a desperate situation. Our entire army may be wiped out in this city!"

The situation changes with a single thought!
"Ok!"

Gan Ning sighed: "Sun Wentai's courage is rare in this world. How heroic it is for a monarch to kill himself in the city. The Wu army will inspire 120% of their morale and fight us to the end!"

"This battle is unavoidable, the only way to break through!"

Zhuge Liang said: "Soldiers are precious and fast. Although the siege has begun outside the city, the connection between the outer city and the inner city must have been cut off by us. They may not be able to clearly understand that what we have to do is in the city. In this reaction, highlight their encirclement as much as possible!"

"Don't divide the army into two groups!"

Gan Ning thought for a while, and said: "No one can get out if we go to Chai Sang. We can go directly to the East China Sea. As long as we can get out of the sea, the sky is high and the sea is wide enough for us to roam, and no one can catch up!"

He raised his head, and his eyes swept across the Jianye Capital: "The king had a trick back then, we can follow it!"

"Burning the city?"

Zhuge Liang swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

This is a sinful thing.

A fire in Mujing burned the whole of Luoyang. For so many years, those people in Shilin have been pinned to death in history with their own pens.

Still can't stand up until now.

Even in the future, even if one day the Ming Kingdom wins the world, unless it learns from Qin Shihuang's tyranny and burns books to bury Confucianism, otherwise, it will eventually leave a bad name in history.

If they followed Mujing's trick and used the fire to escape, they would probably bear the whole Jiangdong's infamy, and both of them would become a member of the pillar of shame.

Even in the entire scholarly community, if there is no way to turn over, it will inevitably be named as a brutal killing god like Qin Zhibaiqi.

"I would also like to take pity on the people in the city, but who will take pity on me? I am the son of tens of thousands of Ming soldiers. Our expedition to Jianye is for the sake of the Ming Dynasty and for the sake of getting ahead, not for the shroud in horse leather!"

There was a hint of ferocity in Gan Ning's eyes: "You don't need to do this, I will do it myself, if someone is responsible for this monstrous wronged soul in the future, I am also willing!"

In troubled times, without a strong and firm fighting heart, one cannot survive on the battlefield. It's not that he doesn't want benevolence, nor does he want to let these innocent people go.

But which is more important, he holds a ruler in his heart, and the benchmark is very clear.

Even if he knows that once he returns to Yudu, he may be punished by countless civil officials, he is still willing to do so, this is his way of killing on the battlefield.

"at this point!"

Zhuge Liang is not a person who does not take responsibility. Together with the expedition, they captured Jianye together. No matter if there is a big reputation, they are responsible for it together. Fight, leave the rest to me!"

"Aren't you afraid?" Gan Ning narrowed his eyes.

"There is nothing to be afraid of!" Zhuge Liang smiled and said calmly: "For the peace of the world, we have to pay the price after all. How many sons we have sent off on the battlefield over the years, even we ourselves can't tell. But going forward and succeeding, it’s not for a peaceful and prosperous world, the balance that can’t be negotiated, only the prosperous world that can be killed!”

"Your words are more and more like the style of a king!"

Gan Ning laughed loudly: "Then today, the two of us are fighting a dead end in Jianye. Let's see who can stop us!"

"The first stone city!"

Zhuge Liang said: "I had already thought about today's incident that day. On the back road, I kept an eye out. To break through the Stone City, only the main force of the first battalion is needed, on the Qinhuai River!"

"Sun Bofu, who I blocked, you open the way. Our main warship on the Yangtze River should arrive soon. When the time comes, we will withdraw immediately after the meeting. In addition, be careful of Jiangbei's counterattack. Taishi Ziyi has arranged such a dense warship in Jiangbei. Killing the formation will not allow us to escape from the Yangtze River smoothly, they will definitely continue to attack us along the Jiangbei line!"

Gan Ning said.

"It's dark!" Zhuge Liang said, "This is the only chance."

"But it's getting dark now?"

Gan Ning gritted his teeth: "It's been several hours, it's a bit hard to hold on!"

"No way, we have to hold on!" Zhuge Liang said in a low voice: "It's time to test our combat effectiveness!"

The two must have made a plan, and immediately started to move. This scene was a breakout in a desperate situation. Wu Jun's killing intent was already high, and the army surrounded them heavily.

No one can guarantee whether the Ming army can break through the siege.

………………

Outside the South City.

under the city gate.

Wu Jun was working on a ferocious project, and a Danyang County soldier charged forward one after another. There were not many engineering equipment, because they were also insufficiently prepared, but there were enough ladders, and breaking the city was just around the corner.

"how much longer!"

Sun Ce's heart was burning with irritability. At this moment, he was worried. There was something wrong with his father's order, but he didn't dare to think about it. He could only break through the city quickly.

"The Ming army on the city is standing firm, with great fighting spirit, and the arrows are very dense. It will take us at least an hour to break through!"
