Chapter 686 Kuaiji(1/2)
Zhou Yu surrendered, and the two old stubborns Huang Gai and Han Dang also surrendered. The entire Jiangdong civil and military officials were basically in the hands of Liu Mang. Jiangdong and his party could be said to have gained a lot. Now they are waiting for the Sun brothers to decide the outcome in Kuaiji.
"Kill, kill, kill!" Under Kuaiji City, half of the corpses were piled up. After being beaten during the day, people needed to be sent to clean the corpse at night. The manpower had no time to get it done, so he could only retreat to the city directly and burn it after it was difficult.
The corpses on the top of the city were easy to deal with, but the better corpses fell into the moat outside Kuaiji City, and a corpse bridge formed apart from the moat.
The original bluestone structure was no longer visible in the city walls of Kuaiji, and it was completely dyed red by blood.
The two sides have no skills in fighting now. It should be said that both sides are already red-eyed. Sun Ce, who was sieging the city, only needed to beat the drums to advance, and countless soldiers of the Jiangdong Army climbed up the city walls of Kuaiji to fight with his fellow countrymen or tribes.
Sun Ce's 50,000 troops came, but now he only has more than 20,000 troops, almost 30,000 troops were lost, and Sun Quan in the city wall was not much better. Although the people could be cannon fodder, you must know that if you really drive Sun Ce's elite troops down the city wall, you have to use your own elite troops. What's more, sometimes the people are not helping but hindering, because once the people are afraid, they will retreat, which may disrupt the entire Sun Quan army's defense line.
So Sun Quan was not much better. At least for a few days, there was no smile on Sun Quan's face.
On the south gate, Zuo Li's precious son Zuo Jie, the eldest son Zuo, was also wearing a general uniform and a human-like man-like patrolling the city wall. Although the south gate is not the main battlefield like the north gate, there have been fierce fighting in the past few days. Although the eldest son Zuo Jie did not have much effect on appearing on the city gate, it could at least encourage morale.
"Yang Kui, you are doing well. I will mention you to my father and lord!" Zuo Jie looked at the city wall with satisfaction. The main person in charge of the South Gate was Zuo Jie's father Zuo Li and Yang Kui. No, it should be said that it was Lu Su. Although Lu Su is talented, he is not valued by Sun Quan now. Because he has to survive the scene in front of him, the Zuo family, who is rich and has someone, is what Sun Quan needs. Yang Kui was naturally arranged to come down to Zuo Li's hands, and Zuo Li went to rest. He asked Yang Kui to take responsibility for a little, but Yang Kui could not touch the soldiers and horses, and the military power of the soldiers was all in the hands of his Zuo family.
"All this is what Yang Kui should do!" Lu Su said to Zuo Jie humbly.
Zuo Jie enjoys such respect. You must know that before this, Zuo Jie still focused on Lu Su.
"Hey! I don't know when this will end!" Our Zuo Jie, the eldest young master Zuo, also began to worry about the country and the people. Of course, he was not really worried about the country and the people, but because Kuaiji City was besieged, all industries in the city were abandoned, and he, the eldest young master Zuo, had no place to play.
Lu Su couldn't help but turn his eyes when he heard the complaints of Master Zuo, "Yes! It would be great if this war ended soon. In this way, we can also relax and relax!"
As soon as we heard about Fenghua and Xueyue, our eldest master Zuo's eyes lit up immediately. He looked at Lu Su and couldn't help laughing strangely, "It turns out that our Lord Yang Kui and Yang also like this." As the saying goes, it's better to steal than a wife than a concubine, and it's better to steal than not. Therefore, although our eldest master Zuo has a wife from several rooms at home, he still likes to go Fenghua and Xueyue.
"Who doesn't like this man!" Lu Su also said with a smile.
The young master nodded, "It's also a man, an animal that always thinks with his lower body. "But Mr. Yang Kui, you look like you, I don't know if there is any sister who is willing to serve you!" Zuo Jie said to Lu Su as if he was a pity. Lu Su was a strong man with a 8-foot-foot body. Unfortunately, this face is useless.
"Haha, do you have to see if Zhang De looks good? You can just have money. If he thinks he is less than a hundred yuan, I will give him a thousand yuan. If he thinks he is less than a thousand yuan, I will give him ten thousand yuan. There is always a price they are willing to." Lu Su said indifferently.
"Brother Yang, this is not OK. We are going to be romantic. It's meaningless to spend money like this!" Zuo Jie said to Yang Kui as if he had experienced it.
"Oh? Then I'll ask Mr. Zuo to teach me!" Yang Kui listened to Zuo Jie over there for a long time with an interest.
It was getting dark, and our Zuo Jung-san had already left with a sense of taste.
"Bah!" Seeing Zuo Jie leave, Yang Chen couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of water at Zuo Jie's back. This Zuo Jie is a person who is not enough to make things better, but such a person has become their boss because of the power in his family. How can Yang Chen feel comfortable?
"Brother, let's leave as soon as possible!" Yang Chen said to Lu Su next to him. Their mission to come to Jiangdong was to re-arrange Jiangdong to Yangzhou, but now it has been almost completed. The lord's troops there have been stationed in Jianye, and Sun Ce is also under the banner of Yangzhou. Now it should be the time for them to succeed and retire.
"No, we can't leave now! Our mission has not been completed yet!" Lu Su shook his head. It's very simple to leave now, but Kuaiji is still in Sun Quan's hands. In the end, Sun Ce may not be able to get a bargain. Maybe the Yangzhou army will send troops to make a fuss. At that time, I don't know how many people will die, so Lu Su thought of breaking Kuaiji City from the inside.
Therefore, even if the city is made of steel, it has flaws. This broken house is his inside. If he finally penetrates into the enemy's internal situation, it would be a waste if he does nothing.
"Then we will send someone to send a letter to let the Sun Ce army on the opposite side come to break through the city gate!" Yang Chen said to Lu Su.
Lu Su shook his head with a wry smile, "Not that simple, let alone whether the Sun Ce army on the opposite side would trust them. Even if he trusted them, Lu Su would not be able to touch this city gate, because Zuo Jie was indeed a fool. But the father of the eldest young master was a shrewd man. The defenders at the South Gate did not give Lu Su any military power. So although Lu Su is a deputy, he could only command the common people to help consolidate the city defense.
So if you open the city gate as Yang Chen said, don’t joke. You can be taken down before you even reach the city gate.
"But if we wait like this, we can't take the city gate. Zuo Li took the military power tightly. How could you get it? Brother~" Yang Chen was still persuading Lu Su to leave, because Lu Su had already paid enough for Jiangdong, and that military power was Zuo Li's private soldiers. He only listened to Zuo Li's.
"No, these soldiers are not just listening to Zuo Li!" Lu Su shook his head and said to him.
"Yeah?" Yang Chen frowned, but then he understood a little, "Brother, are you talking?"
"These are all private soldiers of the Zuo family. In addition to the head of Zuo Li, there is also the young head of Zuo Jie!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen, and he was about to start from Zuo Jie.
Compared to the old fox Zuo Li, Zuo Jie is much easier to deal with.
Two more days later, the attack level of Sun Ce's army under the city was also reduced, because after all, Sun Ce's subordinates were also humans. They could not maintain their full attack, and at least they needed a rest, which also gave the Jiangdong rebels in the city a time to rest.
Zuo Liren is old, so his energy is not as good as before. When there is no fierce attack from the enemy on the city wall, Zuo Li chose to go back and rest, leaving his eldest son here.
"Brother Yang!" Since Qian and Yang Kui's discussion on the romantic relationship between Qian and Yang Kui, Zuo Jie has now brought his relationship with Lu Su a lot, so when he saw Lu Su there, he nodded and greeted Brother Yang.
"Big Young Master!" Yang Kui also hugged his fists.
"Come on, Brother Yang has time today. Let's talk about the romantic affairs I had in Jingzhou back then." Zuo Jie showed off to Yang Kui over there. When other gentry children went to study, our Zuo Master Zuo took most of the brothels.
"I tell you, do you know that music hall in Jingzhou? It's simply a paradise on earth!" Zuo Jie was talking, and Lu Su was listening softly from the side. Did he express a feeling or a compliment to our Zuo Jie, Zuo Master, it turns out that you have been to so many places, so fiercely.
Our young master, Zuo, will nod and answer, that is, what about this young master, how about it.
In the past two or three days, our Lord Lu Sulu is going to meet this Master Zuo Jie and Zuo.
"Brother Yang, wait for the war here to end, so that Brother Yang will definitely take Brother Yang to Jingzhou together so that Brother Yang can also experience the fun of the Jingzhou music hall." Master Zuo Jie generously invited our Lord Lu Su to Jingzhou for a casual time.
"Master, do you want this war to end as soon as possible?" Lu Su suddenly asked Master Zuo next to him.
‘Nonsense, who doesn’t want this war to end soon. “The eldest master said it without thinking, but then he became alert. Although our Zuo Master is a little unreliable, he is still influenced by some problems. This is the critical time for Kuaiji to defend the city, so our Zuo Master will put on armor and come to the city wall to boost morale.
"What do you want to do? What are your intentions?" The young master looked at our Lord Lu Sulu vigilantly.
"Haha, Master, what can I do? I just want to let the Master get better early! If there is one, then I'm thinking of asking the Master to take me to Jingzhou to see the legendary Jingzhou music hall!" As he said that, Lu Su also showed a very yearning look.
"Yes!" Master Zuo nodded. He had been holding it in for a long time, but he couldn't find any fun. "It's all this damn Sun Ce. If he didn't surround me, how great would it be to Kuaiji."
"Yes, so as long as we defeat Sun Ce's troops, the siege of Kuaiji will naturally come into contact with it! Otherwise, let Sun Ce keep surrounding him, and I don't know until the year of the Monkey Horse Month!" Lu Su spread his hands to the young master Zuo next to him and said that there was no solution.
"Yes! We have been attacked by Sun Ce's son with soldiers, why can't we counterattack them? Our soldiers are much more than Sun Ce!" Our Master Zuo is worthy of being an ignorant person. Indeed, there are much more soldiers and horses in Kuaiji than Sun Ce outside the city, but brother, can the elite be compared with others? You are all ordinary people. They are all people who act as soldiers with kitchen knives. There are 30,000 soldiers and horses in the south gate of Master Zuo, of which only 3,000 cannon fodder, and the other 27,000 are cannon fodder.
"Young Master, as long as we send troops to defeat Sun Ce's army outside the city, the siege of Kuaiji will be lifted. You can go out and have a good time, so that I, Yang, can also enjoy myself. You can also make the Zuo Prefect look at you, even in front of your lord. You can also make your name come forward, and even, you can say that your lord will make you a prefect!" Lu Su stationed at the side of our Zuo Grand Master, who wanted to let Zuo send troops. This will allow Sun Ce's army to attack better. The reason why Sun Quan's Jiangdong rebels in Kuaiji can last for so long is because of the city wall. Once the advantage of the city wall is gone and they are fighting outside the city, then Sun Quan's Jiangdong rebels will not be far from death.
"I don't want to be a prefect, I want to be a general, and my subordinates command thousands of troops. This is the glory. I will kill whoever I want. If I want to get, let the army kidnap me!" Our Zuo Master next to me began to daydream.
"Young Master, now Zuo Taishou has 30,000 troops in his hand, waiting for Kuaiji to siege. These 30,000 troops are all yours. If you are the heroes of Kuaiji who have solved the siege of Kuaiji, then aren't the hundreds of thousands of troops under the lord's command all yours? In this way, you are the Grand Marshal of the Army in Jiangdong!" Lu Su was bewitching our Zuo Grand Master.
"Master Marshal of the Army?" Our Zuo Master's eyes were almost shining.
"Does the eldest young master still remember the Zhou Yu's mansion we went to? As long as you can take over the siege outside the city, then Zhou Yu's location is yours. You are my Jiangdong Grand Commander. At that time, I, Yang Kui, will ask the Grand Commander to leave a seat for me Yang Kui!"
"You didn't lie to me? Let me be the chief governor?" Master Zuo envied Zhou Yu very much. That's right, Zhou Yu and Zuo Jie are the same age. Zhou Yu became the governor of a state, and even his father had to bow and salute when he saw Zhou Yu. But Zuo Jie was afraid that his father would be so scared that he would die. His father yelled and didn't dare to speak immediately. If he became the chief governor, would his father dare to yell at him like this?
"How could I, Yang Kui, lie to you, Master! I can swear to God!" Yang Kui swears to Master Zuo, of course our Lu Su did not tell lies. If our Master Zuo really contacted, the siege of Kuaiji would not say that Sun Quan would really give Zuo Jie the position of the Grand Governor, but the premise is that you can lift it.
"But! My father must not send troops outside the city when he says something to me. As long as we guard the city well!" Zuo Jie and Zuo Grand Master were still hesitating. Zuo Grand Master was still afraid of his father. His father ordered him to be stationed on the city wall, and he didn't need him to fight. Naturally, there were family generals, so he just had to sway everywhere in his armor.
When Lu Su saw that Master Zuo was hesitating, he immediately panicked a little, "Young Master, I'll say something bad, don't listen!" Lu Su was about to take the medicine.
"What is your relationship with you Brother Yang and me, but it doesn't matter!" Our Master Zuo was very generous.
"The eldest young master, Zuo Taishou is still a man of 60 years old. His heart and energy are no longer good. Besides, if Zuo Taishou could see that he could break the strategy of Sun Ce's army outside the city, he would have been no longer the prefect. I am afraid that the position of this great governor would be your father." Lu Su said to Zuo Taishou, that is, your father does not have this ability, he has short-sighted vision and cannot see where the victory is, so he only has the ability of the prefect but does not have the ability of the great governor.
"Then Brother Yang, have you already had a plan to defeat the enemy?" Zuo Jie still asked Yang Kui next to him with a little guilty conscience.
"This is natural!" Yang Kui nodded.
"Then why didn't Brother Yang go directly?" Although Zuo Jie was a little bit 2, he was not a fool.
"Master, I, Yang Kui, brought a servant to Jiangdong and surrendered to the lord. Even if I have a plan, I must have troops!" Lu Su complained to Zuo Jie.
Lu Su brought one Yang Chen with him. Can the two of them defeat an army?
"Then you can go and talk to your lord!" Zuo Jie said to Lu Su.
"Tell me to the lord? If the General of the Conquest East could listen to our husband, he would have broken the army outside the city long ago!" Yang Chen next to him suddenly spoke.
"Yang Chen! Shut up, don't say it!" Lu Su's face suddenly changed drastically and was about to step forward to stop Yang Chen from speaking.
"Sir, I'm going to say it, I'm going to say it. If it weren't for that villain named Zhang, how could you have been here? If it weren't for that villain, the person commanding at the North Gate now should be you, not him, by the side of General Vibration!" Yang Chen shouted there, and Lu Su hurriedly stepped forward to block Yang Chen's mouth. Yang Chen was sobbing that he couldn't speak.
"Big Young Master, Big Young Master, it's okay for Yang to teach this. Let the eldest young master laugh!" Lu Su said to Zuo Jie with a laugh.
"Wuwuwu!" Yang Chen was still struggling, but he didn't expect Lu Su to slap him directly. "Don't shut up, do you want to kill us? You don't know that person. Is it okay if he hears us?" Yang Chen closed his mouth and stopped talking after Lu Su said this.
"Your High Master also asks us to keep these words secrets. You can't let outsiders hear them, otherwise we will be master and servant, hey!" Lu Su sighed,
"Don't worry, don't worry, Brother Yang, I, Zuo Jie, will never tell others!" Zuo Jie was thinking as he said. The person named Zhang, who was named Zhang Jie, who was like this. The only one who could match was Zhang Zhao next to the Lord Gongsun Quan. Does this Yang Kui and Zhang Zhao have a conflict? Zuo Jie seemed to have been a detective himself. He even wanted a strategist.
Yang Kui has the ability. Zuo Jie also knew that otherwise a few people would not have entered Zhou Yu's mansion without knowing it and escaped without knowing it. Such a talented person was also right next to the Lord Gongsun Quan.
Could it be that person who excluded him? That's why Yang Kui was not satisfied with that person? Thinking about Yang Kui basically had no rights at this southern city gate, Zuo Jie couldn't help but nod. It seemed that this was really the case.
Zuo Jie was right, but he was definitely not an exclusion of Yang Kui. If Zhang Zhao had to exclude Yang Kui, he would have sent Yang Kui aside, instead of letting him at the South Gate. Another reason for letting Yang Kui be at the South Gate was to ask Yang Kui to help the Zuo family father and son to give advice. However, this old prefect Zuo Li was too conservative. He was treating Yang Kui as a thief to guard against Yang Kui, thinking that Yang Kui would chop off his military power and snatch the troops from his hands, so there was no possibility of Lu Su contacting the troops on the troops, which led to Zuo Jie's illusion that Lu Su had no power, and all of this was what Zhang Zhao said about exclusion.
"Since the eldest master has heard of it, I, Yang Kui, won't hide it from the eldest master! That Zhang, because of my talent, Yang Kui, was afraid that I, Yang Kui, would become a confidant around the lord, so he excluded me everywhere and did not give me the opportunity to give advice in front of the lord. He did not like me, Yang, and there was no need for me, Yang, to fall in love with me, Yang, and then I was under the command of Mr. Zuo. If I talked about my plan, then in the end, the battle will be over and the siege of Kuaiji City will be lifted, but I, Yang, will definitely lose my contribution! Instead of taking advantage of that Zhang, it is better to tell you, you, I believe that the eldest master's character will definitely not disappoint me, Yang Kui!" Lu Su was not stingy with the praise of Zuo Jie, which made Zuo Jie a little bit Kobe floating.
"When the eldest young master is the Grand Governor, I, Yang Kui, only need to be a lieutenant or military advisor. I, Yang Kui, will definitely assist the eldest young master. What is his Zhang family? The Zuo family is the leader of the gentry in Jiangdong!" Lu Su's temptation became increasingly greater, making Zuo Jie start to breathe heavily. The Grand Governor, I still want to become the leader of the gentry in Jiangdong. How great is this temptation?
"Brother Yang, no, Mr. Yang Kui, are you sure?" Zuo Jie was moved and asked Lu Su next to him.
"Eight, no, no, only 70% sure!" Lu Su said to Zuo Jie on the side.
"Sir?" Yang Chen didn't understand. At this time, Zuo Jie was moved. It should be said that it was 100%. You must be 100% sure, otherwise how could our Master Zuo be deceived?
Yang Chen didn't understand. Lu Su deliberately said success as 70%. He couldn't say it all, because there are only two possibilities for something that can be done with confidence. The first is that this is too simple, and the second is that this is a trap.
Although Zuo Jie is second, he is not stupid. If he is stupid, he would have been cheated of as the eldest son of the Zuo family for a long time.
‘If Lu Su said that he was 100% sure and was completely sure, then Zuo Jie could immediately judge that Lu Su was lying him. Is Sun Ce’s troops so easy to deal with? If he could be so easy to deal with, he would have been tidied up long ago, and he still had to wait for you Zuo Jie to come? So there is only another possibility left, that is, Lu Su was lying to him. Zuo Jie could immediately judge.
Then Lu Su not only could not use Zuo Jie, but also could be taken down by Zuo Jie.
But now Lu Su said 80% of the time, it was not enough, and it also reduced the city to 70% of the time. This made Zuo Jie feel moved. At least he confirmed one thing, that is, Lu Su was not lying to him. Maybe this is true.
Seventy percent of the chance of winning? Although it is not 100%, it is not low. It is enough for Zuo Jie to be moved, but Zuo Jie is still not satisfied because he is afraid. He is afraid that if he is really touched by these 30 percent, it will be over.
So people are contradictory. Zuo Jie thought that Lu Su was not lying to him, but thought that it would be great if he was 100%.
"Mr. Yang Kui, why don't I notify my father first!" Zuo Jie hesitated. After all, this is a big deal. Although this pie is good, you have to have the ability to eat it. Don't end it becomes a trap if you don't eat it, so Zuo Jie thought to tell his father to ask his father to help him make an idea.
To be continued...
