The first general of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 374
"My lord, this is the sincere words of the veteran, I hope the lord will think twice!"

Zhang Zhao led several other Jiangdong important ministers to stand in front of Sun Quan. Sincerely speaking, people can't see the slightest bit of reluctance.

Although no one responded to Wei Tao's invitation to surrender at the time, he was trying to persuade Sun Quan to surrender afterwards.

After all, Sun Quan was in his prime. Although he was stunned for a while, he soon woke up. However, when Sun Quan woke up, those who were still his subjects came one by one to persuade him to surrender to Wei Tao!

Sun Quan felt chills all over his body, wanted to yell but didn't know how to yell, why didn't he know what these people were thinking?
For the face of the Jiangdong gentry, and for the sake of better safeguarding their interests in front of Wei Tao in the future, they are unwilling to surrender directly.

In this way, he was one level lower in front of Wei Tao.

So such a person hopes that he will surrender, that he will take over all his sins.

To put it in an ugly saying, it is: If you become a bitch, you have to set up a chastity archway.

It's no wonder that Sun Quan lost his face. Under Zhang Zhao's persuasion, he remained silent all the time, but his cold eyes sweeping back and forth made those people secretly startled.

But at the same time, a feeling of desolation reverberated in Sun Quan's heart. Almost all the team left behind by his father and brother Sun Jian and Sun Ce were killed by Wei Tao, and the newcomers he established and promoted were also killed by Wei Tao.

Now there are indeed many Jiangdong ministers among Chaisang, but how many confidant ministers can there be?
If not, how could the courtiers be so persecuted?

"Report that Mr. Lu Su is back!"

Just when there was a stalemate, another guard came to report and said.

"Mr. Lu Su asked to see the lord, may I see you?"

"Lu Su?"

Sun Quan's eyes froze slightly. He naturally knew what this was likely to be. But based on his understanding of Lu Su, he wondered if this was the case, but when it really happened, it made him stunned.

But in the same way, the other Zhang Zhao and others were overjoyed, they also understood very well.

"Let him in!"

Sun Quan's words were indescribably cold. If Zhang Zhao and the others only made Sun Quan hate them, then Lu Su was likely to make Sun Quan hate them.

With Sun Quan's order, Lu Su quickly walked in. At this time, Lu Su's face was pale and his body was weak, but his whole body had a different kind of momentum. After seeing Sun Quan, he immediately saluted Sun Quan.

"Lu Su pays homage to the lord."

"My lord? Am I still your lord? Mr. Zijing must have admitted the wrong person, right?"

Sun Quan's eyes were extremely cold, and he even got up without caring about his weakness, and put one hand on the hilt of his sword, as if Lu Su was going to slash him if something was wrong.

"The lord is naturally Lu Su's lord, and Lu Su's lord is only the lord."

Lu Su replied flatly, but obviously it was very difficult for the people in the room to believe his words. Everyone looked at him with strange expressions.

Who would believe this?
"If you hadn't surrendered to Wei Tao, why would Wei Tao let you go back? I'm afraid the condition for your surrender is that you came to persuade me to surrender! You really think that my Sun family has not fallen to this point! You can let anyone control you at will!"

Sun Quan's fingers holding the sword turned white. It was obvious that he was extremely annoyed in his heart, and even a little out of words.

"I did come to persuade the lord to surrender, but I did not surrender to Wei Tao."

Lu Su said calmly, as if he was only talking about something that had nothing to do with him.

"Dare to ask my lord to let me finish my words. After I finish speaking, Su will kill me if I want to."

"Chong!"

A cold sword was pressed against Lu Su's forehead. At this moment, Sun Quan's complexion was already ashen. If there was a slight mistake, he would stab it with the sword.

"Say it! After I finish speaking, I will let you die a worthy death!"

"My lord, do you still remember the strategy of dividing the world that I mentioned not long ago? It's a pity that Lu Su is stupid, thinking that he can see the big picture, but he ignores the details, and was calculated by Wei Tao, so that he was defeated."

Lu Su didn't seem to feel anything strange, and spoke slowly.

"If you usually lose this game, the Lord is not without a chance to recover. There are countless Jiangdong sons, and it is not difficult to build a naval army, but this is not the case now. Lord, the world is coming to a time of great struggle. Wei Tao wants to fight Take Jiangdong directly in one breath to quickly unify the world."

Lu Su has real talents and practical actions. Listening to this, even if Sun Quan is angry at this time, he has to admit that what he said is not bad.

"So what? I don't believe that Cao Cao and Liu Bei are so short-sighted. Once I fall in Jiangdong, they will be the next target. They will not understand the truth of the cold lips!"

Sun Quan was about to grit his teeth and say these words, his eyes were so cold that people dare not even look at each other.

"What the lord said is not bad. Although I don't know the specific information, no matter what I think, it will not exceed one month. As long as the lord can persist for one month, then Wei Tao will retreat. At most, he will plunder Jiangdong and lose some. Wealth can make a comeback at that time."

Lu Su sighed slightly, other people did understand this matter, but Sun Quan couldn't understand some things, the reason why he agreed to come to persuade Sun Quan to surrender was actually because he had seen it clearly.

"I believe that with the lord's ability, there is still [-]% to [-]% certainty in defending Chaisang. However, it is no problem to lose the Jiangdong navy, and it is not a problem to lose property. With the prestige of the third generation of the Sun family, no one dares to despise the lord. But losing the people who supported the lord is a big problem. Aren’t these people left by the lord’s side now?”

Lu Su's gaze swept over Zhang Zhao and the others, but Zhang Zhao and the others did not dare to look at him.

"What do you mean?"

Sun Quan faintly realized that he had made a big mistake. He naturally knew what kind of people Zhang Zhao and others were.

"Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other old generals have already gone one step ahead, and Ding Feng, Chen Wu and other generals have just died. The other advisers and generals who sat and watched the lord fight before have already had two hearts with the lord. Even if the lord relies on Sun The power of the family kept Chai Sang, forcing Wei Tao to retreat. But after Wei Tao retreats, is the Lord of Jiangdong still the Lord?"

Lu Su let out a long sigh. Sun Quan could say that he had brought himself to a dead end, and now even Lu Su couldn't do anything to save him.

"The Jiangdong aristocratic family originally had prestige, but now they are in power. If the lord has all the people under his command, he would not dare to act rashly, but now there is no one under the lord's command. If it weren't for General Wei Tao threatening outside the city, the hearts of the people must have been scattered. Look, although Zhang Zibu and others have selfish intentions, they are also for the Lord. Those who keep silent..."

At the end, Lu Su sighed again.

Sun Quan was also a hero of the moment. Hearing Lu Su's words, he naturally understood. Thinking about it carefully, Sun Quan suddenly felt cold hands and feet. If Zhou Tai and others were still there, others would not dare to act rashly, but now Zhou Tai and others are dead. , his grasp of Jiangdong was indeed at its weakest.

"Damn! Damn!"

Realizing this, a different kind of tyranny surged into his heart, no matter how wise a person was, he couldn't help but burst into fury at this time, Sun Quan swung the sword in his hand and slashed.

After venting for a while, he managed to calm down, but his eyes revealed a kind of weakness.

"The lord should also know that Moling is now in the hands of Wei Tao. If the Sun clan does not surrender now, I am afraid that whether it is the general who breaks Chaisang or other Jiangdong clans replace it, I am afraid that the result of the Sun clan will be disastrous. Alright, my lord, don't forget how General Bofu laid down this foundation in the past."

Hearing this, Sun Quan trembled slightly again.

He naturally knew that in the past when Sun Ce attacked Jiangdong, he slaughtered wantonly, and many Jiangdong clans declined because of this.

For the benefit of their own family, these Jiangdong clans naturally dare not act recklessly, but if they come to power one day...

Sun Quan didn't dare to think about it any more.

"My lord, Lu Su is incompetent, and now he offers his last plan."

At this time, Lu Su bowed to Sun Quan again and said respectfully.

"My lord is also a vassal. If he surrenders, then Wei Tao will have to respect him a little bit. There is a limit to this kind of respect. If we don't take this opportunity to deepen our relationship at this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Sun family. But to win Wei Tao's favor, Nothing is better than tricking the beauties! I heard that the lord has a younger sister who is beautiful and virtuous, worthy of serving as a dustpan, if you marry her, the favor of the Sun family will not be diminished!"

Hearing what Lu Su said, Sun Quan's expression changed, and he looked at Lu Su for a long time before saying.

"Mr. Zijing is really dedicated!"

This is to say that Lu Su worked hard after taking refuge in the new master, but at the same time it also shows that Sun Quan already agreed with what he said.

"Hehe... the lord can think clearly. Lu Su followed General Bofu all his life, and then he followed the lord. In the past, he asked himself to sit and watch everything in the world, but now he knows that he is shallow and useless. Now he can The Baosun clan under Jiuquan can be regarded as having face to meet General Bofu!"

Hearing Sun Quan's sarcasm, Lu Su didn't care at all, just smiled slightly, and then said slowly to Sun Quan.

"It's disloyal for a minister to persuade the lord to surrender. Although I, Lu Su, can't do it now, I have made a big mistake. Now that I know that the lord is safe, I can let go of my worries. I hope the lord will be smooth sailing in the future. Sun The clan will last forever. Lu Su can feel at ease under the nine springs. Lu Su bows his head and bids farewell!"

After speaking, Lu Su had an extra dagger in his hand, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, it directly pierced his heart. After a while, Lu Su's body slowly fell to the ground.

Lu Su died.

"Zi Jing!"

It wasn't until this time that Sun Quan came to his senses, but at this time the man was dead, no matter how much he shouted, it was impossible to call back...
