Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 450 Lu Su Envoys Chu

In front of the second floor, Liu Jing actually saw Lu Su, which surprised him greatly. How could Lu Su be here?He immediately ordered the guards to invite Lu Su to the tavern.

Not long after, Lu Su came to the bank of the Cao River with a few entourages. Lu Su cupped his hands and said with a smile, "What a coincidence, I just arrived in Wuchang, but I didn't inform the government in advance. Please forgive me!"

Liu Jing laughed loudly, "This is Zijing's fault. We can't show our friendship as landlords. For the sake of our old friendship, we won't be fined. Zijing might as well get on the boat and talk about it."

"I'm disturbing the state shepherd!"

Lu Su was not too late, and he boarded the boat happily. Although the battle between the two families had just ended, it did not affect the personal friendship between Lu Su and Liu Jing. The two sat down in the cabin, and Liu Jing said with a smile: "I think this time Wu Hou Xizheng, Zijing should be in the opposition!"

Lu Su smiled wryly, and said with regret on his face: "Not only I object, but Gong Jin also firmly opposes it. But Wu Hou insisted on going his own way, and eventually made a big mistake. I don't know what to say."

The smile on Liu Jing's face disappeared, and he said lightly: "It's nothing. If I didn't want to go west, maybe I would take the initiative to attack Jiangdong, each for its own country, and the interests dictate it. Difficult to deal with aftermath."

Lu Su was bitter in his heart, now that he had something to ask for, he had to bow his head, and said after a while, "Can I ask Zhou Mu to discuss and resolve the aftermath for the sake of our two families fighting Cao Cao together? We will not invade Jingzhou again."

Liu Jing smiled coldly, "But your Marquis Wu's reputation is so impressive!"

Lu Su was silent, he didn't know what to say, this atmosphere made him feel very embarrassed, Liu Jing was not a mean person, and he didn't want to deliberately embarrass Lu Su, there was no need for it.

Liu Jing smiled again and said, "But because of my friendship with Zijing, I can return Princess Shangxiang to you first, without any conditions."

Lu Su was overjoyed. Liu Jing's willingness to let go of this meant that the negotiation could continue. He no longer mentioned the matter of negotiation, and had to proceed step by step.

Liu Jing brought Lu Su to the VIP station, Wang Yicheng greeted him, bowed and saluted, "See Zhou Mu!"

"How is Princess Shangxiang now?"

Wang Yicheng showed timidity on his face, and explained: "The princess insisted on going to the prisoner-of-war camp, and she went on a hunger strike for three days. It happened that Mrs. Zhou Mu came to visit her, so she agreed to her request. The princess is now In a POW camp."

As Wang Yicheng said, he secretly looked at Liu Jing's face, and saw that he was a little displeased, so he quickly added: "I heard that she was placed alone, and the madam even sent a female guard to protect her, it seems that the madam and the princess knew each other before. .”

Liu Jing generally forbids his wife to intervene in government affairs, and his wife moved Sun Shangxiang to a prisoner-of-war camp without authorization, which of course made him unhappy, but when he heard that his wife and Sun Shangxiang knew each other, he turned pale and turned to Lu Su and said, "It's very Sorry, let's go to the POW camp again!"

Lu Su was worried in his heart, how could the princess live in a place like a prisoner-of-war camp with a daughter of gold, but he was a little relieved when he heard that there were female guards protecting her.

The two got on their horses and ran towards the prisoner-of-war camp outside the northern city, escorted by a brigade of cavalry.

The prisoner-of-war camp is actually a military camp, covering an area of ​​over a thousand acres. At present, tens of thousands of Jiangdong prisoners of war are being held. General Li Jun leads [-] soldiers to guard them, and the security is tight.

However, in order to prevent the prisoners of war from making trouble, all the officers above the general level were imprisoned separately, including Tai Shici, Lu Meng, and Xu Sheng, who were also under house arrest in the city.

Liu Jing ran all the way to the prisoner-of-war camp, Li Jun heard the news and came out to welcome him, Liu Jing immediately asked him, "Princess Jiangdong is being imprisoned here?"

Li Jun knew that Liu Jing would ask about this sooner or later, so he nodded, "She's in the barracks, please state shepherd come with me."

Liu Jing led Lu Su into the prisoner-of-war camp and walked all the way to the northwest corner. There was an area surrounded by camp fences, covering an area of ​​about three acres, with several white tents set up and special soldiers guarding the outside of the camp fence. , outsiders are not allowed to enter, and there are eight female guards inside to protect Sun Shangxiang, of course it is also a kind of custody. [

Liu Jing led Lu Su into the barracks, and several female guards quickly stepped forward to salute. Liu Jing glanced at the tent and asked, "How is she? Is she still on a hunger strike?"

The female guard leader shook her head, "Report to the state shepherd that she is better now, but her body is very weak. The military doctor came to see her yesterday and said that she will need to lie still for at least half a month before she recovers."

Liu Jing walked to the big tent, glanced inside the tent through the gap, and saw that Sun Shangxiang seemed to be lying on the couch, not asleep, so Liu Jing asked with a smile, "Can I come in?"

After a while, a bitter voice came from the tent: "I am your prisoner of war, you can do whatever you want, do you still need to ask me?"

Liu Jing raised the curtain and walked in, but Lu Su hesitated for a moment and didn't follow in. The two will be husband and wife in the future, so he can't get involved.

As long as the princess is safe, he is relieved, he hastily withdrew to wait outside the barracks, and several personal guards also withdrew, and there were female guards around the big tent, so they were not worried.

Liu Jing walked into the big tent, and saw that Sun Shangxiang had turned his back, the quilt was tightly covered, and even his head was covered, leaving only a strand of black hair outside the quilt.

Liu Jing sat down beside her couch, and said gently: "I'm here to tell you, when you get better, I'll let you go back to Jiangdong."

"Hmph! I would never believe what you said." Sun Shangxiang snorted coldly.

"Why don't you believe me?" Liu Jing said with a smile, "Could it be that my majestic Jingzhou Mu will still trick you into a little girl?"

"Whether your words count or not, you know in your heart!"

Sun Shangxiang actually alluded to Liu Jing's promise to let her "shoot" three arrows, but in the end Liu Jing rejected the appointment, but Liu Jing had long forgotten about it, and he really didn't understand it.

"Okay! Tomorrow morning, I will arrange a boat to take you back to Jiangdong, believe it or not."

Sun Shangxiang lifted the quilt, sat up suddenly, and glared at Liu Jing, "Don't be hypocritical, I will never go back!"

Liu Jing was not angry, he smiled, "Why don't you go back, is it comfortable to live here?"

"It's none of your business."

"Why shut it up with me? If I don't like some prisoners of war, I will expel them. The same goes for you. I will expel you from Jingzhou. Where do you want to go? Whatever you want, leave early tomorrow morning!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Jing got up and left. Sun Shangxiang bit her lips tightly, and just when Liu Jing was about to leave the account, she said loudly: "I am also a member of Jiangdong. If I want to leave, I will go with the soldiers. I will never give up. Let them go back to Jiangdong alone, if you want to send me back by force, I will jump into the river and kill myself!"

Liu Jing stopped and looked back at her. After a while, he nodded, "In that case, I will let you go back with the Jiangdong soldiers. You will set off together tomorrow morning."

"Wait a minute!"

Sun Shangxiang stopped Liu Jing and looked at him in surprise, "What did you just say?"

Liu Jing said calmly: "I just said, for your sake, release all Jiangdong soldiers, including the soldiers captured in Lujiang County, a total of more than [-] soldiers, all of them will be released back to Jiangdong."

"Have you reached any conditions with my brother?" Sun Shangxiang couldn't believe it, and asked suspiciously.

"Miss Shangxiang, you have underestimated Liu Jing's heart. At the beginning, I released 10,000+ Cao Jun prisoners of war. Did I mention any conditions? This war is not the fault of the soldiers, including you. We were not supposed to be enemies."

After finishing speaking, Liu Jing smiled faintly, opened the tent and walked out, Sun Shangxiang watched his back disappear, her white teeth bit her lips until she turned white, she felt as if she had knocked over a five-flavored bottle, her emotions were complicated, and she didn't know what it was like

Liu Jing walked out of the big tent and saw Lu Su standing far away from the fence, so he stepped forward and said with a smile, "Why did Zijing escape?"

Lu Su laughed awkwardly, "Since Zhou Mu intends to let her go, I think it's better not to see her for now."

"Not only her, I will send all Jiangdong soldiers back to their hometowns."

Lu Su was stunned, he was deeply moved, Liu Jing let him go before negotiating, no one could compare with this kind of heart, who said he was not sincere in negotiating, Lu Su suddenly bowed and bowed deeply, "The state shepherd Lu Su was overwhelmed with gratitude for letting my Jiangdong soldiers go home, and on behalf of Marquis Wu and Jiangdong's elders, I would also like to thank Zhou Mu for his benevolence!"

Liu Jing patted him on the shoulder lightly, and said with a slight smile: "Zijing said one more word, I only said to let the soldiers go back, but I didn't say to let the generals go, Zijing must not think too much of me. "

After finishing speaking, Liu Jing walked away, and Lu Su shook his head after a while. He was very satisfied to be able to let the soldiers back. Li Jun and the others beside him couldn't help laughing. They also thought it was wrong. All the prisoners of war are sent back, how can there be such a good thing in the world?

At night, Liu Jing was lying on the couch with his hands under his head, looking at the dark roof thoughtfully. Tao Zhan stretched out his smooth arms from under the quilt, gently stroking his face, and said in a low voice. Asked: "Why aren't you asleep?"

"I'm so tired all the way, I can't sleep!"

"Who told you to ask for more... Well, can't you rest for two days?" Tao Zhan complained a little.

Liu Jing chuckled and didn't answer her. After a while, Tao Zhan asked quietly, "Are you really determined to marry her?"

"Who?"

"What do you say?"

Liu Jing was silent, and said for a while, "I don't know either."

Tao Zhan sighed and said, "I'm not actually jealous, I just want to say, no matter what the purpose of marrying her is, since she's married to you, you should treat her well and let her get a real husband, don't be an exchange of benefits." victim of the

Liu Jing was very surprised, he didn't expect his wife to say these words, after a long while, Tao Zhan whispered again: "I just hope you don't forget the old when you get new."

Liu Jing was moved, he turned around and hugged his wife tightly, and whispered in her ear: "You are my wife, no one can replace you."

Tao Zhan put his face on her husband's chest, and sighed deeply in his heart, who can understand the pain and pain in her heart?

The wharf outside Wuchang was crowded with people, and more than [-] Jiangdong prisoners of war lined up waiting to board the ship. Everyone was very excited to finally go home and reunite with their relatives. Many people were so excited that they cried bitterly. They thought they would serve hard labor in Jingzhou , I didn't expect that they would be released after only one month.

One after another, the Jiangdong soldiers began to line up to board the ship. On another Qianshilou ship, Sun Shangxiang stood at the bow, silently watching the crowds on the pier and the excited faces of the soldiers. It was gratitude for rebirth, a longing to go home, and their cheers were clearly an indictment of war.

The soldiers are no longer wearing armor, but wearing the clothes of ordinary people. The shadow of war can no longer be seen on them. They have changed from soldiers to ordinary farmers, fishermen, and businessmen. Life, no need to face death anymore, Sun Shangxiang sighed softly, at this moment she also suddenly became extremely disgusted with war.

She lowered her head to look at the helmet in her hand. It was a silver helmet given to her by her brother before she left for the battle. .

She used to be so fanatical about war, but at this time, she seemed to be reborn in the war. Before her eyes, there were tens of thousands of soldiers who were burned, killed, and drowned in the river. Their wailing, crying Shouting and begging for mercy, those vivid scenes deeply hurt Sun Shangxiang.

Soldiers can still die, but how should their parents, wives and children mourn, and who can they rely on for their long lives?

War!Satisfied the desire for power of several people, but turned several soldiers into bones, and plunged their families into endless pain.

Sun Shangxiang sighed deeply, raised his hand, threw the helmet into the Yangtze River, turned and returned to the cabin.

A large ship started, connected to a long team, and sailed along the mighty Yangtze River to the distant Jiangdong
