Chapter 711: The Fall of Gan Ning
In today's battle, the Jiangdong Army had been planning for a long time, and the Jiangxia Army was ambushed again and again, and it had no power to fight back, and was blindly slaughtered by the Jiangdong Army. And with the death of various important figures in Jiangxia, most of the Jiangxia soldiers lost their fighting spirit and surrendered. According to Sun Ce's order, the Jiangdong generals drove all the troops of Jiangxia in one place, with a number of nearly 6,000 people.
At this time, Huang Zhong galloped wildly, leading more than 30 riders, and fought a bloody way in the crowded Jiangdong army. Although Zhou Yu had made sufficient preparations to kill Huang Zhong and made five lines of defense in a row, he was still desperately broken through by Huang Zhong to escape. Of course, Huang Zhong also paid a lot of price for this, there were dozens of bloody wounds all over his body, and he was hit by several arrows in the back.
Zhou Yu was on a certain hillside, looking at Huang Zhong, everywhere he went, he was intimidating, and the five lines of defense he had set up were like a fictitious one, and he broke through the past, and he couldn't help sighing.
"What a tiger general! Although this veteran is in his fifties, he still has such courage, and I should be born to it! β
Huang Zhong's bravery made a person like Zhou Yu so arrogant have to admire him. Zhou Yu even felt a little sorry for Huang Zhong, if Huang Zhong was not under the account of Huang Zu, a narrow-minded and jealous and jealous master, but under the command of Sun Wentai, the ancestor of Jiangdong, the peerless hero Cao Cao or the world-shattering champion Hou Wenhan, he would definitely be able to shine early. The name of Lu Bu is the king, and it may even fall on Huang Zhong's head.
Although Zhou Yu admired Huang Zhong, Sun Jian died at his hands after all, Huang Zhong was the enemy of the entire Jiangdong, how could Zhou Yu let him escape. When Zhou Yu ordered several teams to ride quickly, rush to various passes, set up an ambush, and be sure to kill Huang Zhong!
As for the other side, Gan Ning led dozens of soldiers to flee into a dense forest, Gan Ning thought that he had thrown off the Jiangdong pursuers, and was releasing his tense spirit and preparing to rest.
Suddenly, Jiangdong soldiers and horses rushed from all directions, and when Gan Ning reacted, he was surrounded by nearly a thousand Jiangdong soldiers.
I saw that around Gan Ning, the first two circles were full of sword and shield men armed with broadswords and shields, the middle two circles were all crossbowmen with bows and crossbows, and the last circle was cavalry with spears in their hands.
Gan Ning's eyes were cold, and he looked around vigilantly, although he was forced to die at this time, Gan Ning had not given up, as long as there was a chance to escape, he would seize it!
"Hahaha!! is a good Gan Xingba, under such a formation, he has not given up and is still looking for life. Such a tenacious fighting spirit is really admirable!! β
A loud laugh sounded, and somewhere in the encirclement, the soldiers on both sides got out of the way, only to see Lu Meng with a smile on his face, riding his horse slowly.
"Lu Ziming! You will kill or chop, and come! If you want me to sit back and wait for death, it's impossible! β
Gan Ning roared angrily, grabbing the tiger tooth knife and unconsciously pinching it tightly, as if he was ready to fight for a jade stone at any time!
"Hmph. Originally, I thought you Gan Xingba was a hero in the world, but it turned out that you were just a puppet who didn't know the times! β
Lu Meng snorted coldly, and looked at Gan Ning's eyes with a little disdain. Gan Ning was furious and shouted.
"Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated!! Lu Ziming, if you want to kill, come and kill it!! It's not a hero!! β
"Gan Xingba, you have a strong martial arts, but you mistakenly fell under the command of a faint master like Huang Chengjie, and you have not been able to reuse it. You have made great contributions, but now you are still an unknown young general, are you willing to shout!? β
Lu Meng's mouth turned suddenly, Gan Ning frowned, thinking of his treatment under Huang Zu, how could he not be resentful.
"I'm at Huang Chengjie, also out of helplessness. I only hate to meet the master! β
"Gan Xingba, you have the talent to control the sea, who is not admired by the four seas? Fame and wealth, such as searching for things, how can you say that you are helpless and care under people? The so-called good birds choose trees to perch, and virtuous ministers choose the master to do things. It's not too early to see the opportunity, and it's too late to regret it. β
Gan Ning's face changed drastically, and his eyes were full of surprise, it seemed that this Lu Meng had actually come to surrender himself. But Gan Ning quickly stopped this thought, the deaths of Sun Jian, Zu Mao, Ling Cao and others were all inseparable from him. With Sun Ce's irascible temperament, he will only want to break his body into thousands of pieces, how can he be accepted under his account!
"Lu Ziming, what do you want!? Even if I want to vote, Jiangdong will not tolerate me. β
"Hehe, that's a bad statement. There is still a place in Jiangdong that can accommodate you Gan Xingba! β
"Where!?"
"Sun Erlang is a respectful and virtuous person, with clear rewards and punishments, broad-mindedness, and ambition, compared to his brother Sun Bofu, there is no better! Sun Erlang will eventually become a great cause! If you are willing to vote, he will be ecstatic and will be kind to you! β
Lu Meng's words were shocking, and he actually mentioned Sun Quan. It turns out that Sun Quan has always had the power to cultivate himself in secret, and generals like Lu Meng, who have extraordinary abilities but have not been reused, are the targets that Sun Quan secretly tries to woo.
Lu Meng had long surrendered to Sun Quan's command, and this time he was secretly ordered by Sun Quan to surrender Gan Ning, a hero who had not been reused under Huang Zu.
"Sun Erlang!? Isn't that Sun Zhongmou! Isn't it rumored that he is guilty of a strange disease!? β
Gan Ning exclaimed unconsciously. Lu Meng smiled faintly, and then replied.
"My father-in-law is a masterpiece of a generation, and he is unfathomable. He was sick in bed, which was really a plan to keep his eyes on it. Gan Xingba, I dare to assert that sooner or later Jiangdong will fall into the hands of my lord. With your skills, you will be the chief general of Jiangdong at that time. But before that, I still need to grieve you for a while, and act as a horse archer under my command. I wonder if you want to surrender or not? β
Gan Ning's face was black and calm, and a pair of sharp and slender eyes narrowed into a thin slit, looking at Lu Meng. LΓΌ Meng was very calm, and at this time, these thousand soldiers and horses were all henchmen cultivated by Sun Quan secretly, so LΓΌ Meng was not afraid that he would secretly talk about Ganning and be known by Sun Ce.
"Is this time Sun Zhongmou teaching you to come down to me?"
"Yes, too. My father-in-law, who has long admired the name of Gan Haojie, originally intended to send a fine work to Jingzhou to invite him. How do you know that it is too late, and the detailed return of Gan Haojie has been under Huang Chengjie. The Sun and Huang families are enemies, and my lord has no choice but to give up this thought. Later, I heard that Gan Haojie was powerful in the battle of Jiangxia, and my lord regretted it even more. sighed, if this fine work could have been invited one step earlier, Gan Haojie would not have killed Jiangdong generals, but Huang Chengjie's minions! Later, my father-in-law heard that Jiangxia's meticulous work was returned, and Gan Haojie made great contributions, but he still could not be reused, and felt sorry for Gan Haojie.
This time Huang Chengjie attacked Jiangdong, which was arranged by Zhou Gongjin, my Jiangdong military division. Sun Jing did not rebel at all, and the successive defeats of the Jiangdong Army were just a play, in order to lure Huang Chengjie deep into the hinterland of Jiangdong, and then annihilate it completely! If my guess is correct, Huang Chengjie should have been killed at this time, and most of his minions should have been annihilated by the Jiangdong Army!
Zhou Gongjin has planned so far this time, all because Sun Bofu, the lord of Jiangdong, wants to kill all the top and bottom of Jiangxia, and no one is left behind, so as to pay tribute to the soul of Sun Wentai, the ancestor of Jiangdong! Sun Bofu's murderous heart was extremely heavy, and my lord couldn't bear Gan Haojie's loss to the world, so before he started the army, he secretly ordered me to find an opportunity to save him.
If Gan Haojie is willing to surrender to my lord, fame, fortune and power in the future can be obtained with a single hand. If Gan Haojie is obsessed and unrepentant, he is willing to die for Huang Chengjie's mediocre lord to the end. Then, I have no choice but to carry out Zhou Gongjin's order, bring your head back to Wuhui, and pay tribute to the Jiangdong generals who died at your hands. β
Lu Meng was not in a hurry, and said slowly on the horse. But Gan Ning listened to it again and again, according to Lu Meng's words, there are only two ways out for him at the moment, descent is life, and failure to descend is death!
Gan Ning's eyes continued to glow, and the venue suddenly became dead.
"Huh? Hahaha!!! β
After a while, Gan Ning suddenly opened his mouth and laughed, and the faces of the thousand Jiangdong soldiers around him changed, ready to fight. But Lu Meng's reaction was different, as soon as he heard Gan Ning's laughter, he guessed the choice Gan Ning made, and the killing intent on his face suddenly faded.
After the laughter, the corners of Gan Ning's mouth curled up a little
g Uninhibited smile.
Sun Zhongmou dared to accept Gan, the enemy that everyone in Jiangdong wanted to kill, and Gan really had to admire such a spirit. Based on this, Gan can see that Sun Zhongmou is likely to be a masterpiece of a generation as you said! Such a person, under his command, will not bury my name of Gan Xingba.
I am willing to surrender! β
As soon as Gan Ning's words fell, he suddenly made a move that shocked the Jiangdong soldiers around him, only to see him suddenly raise his knife, sweep it hard, and hack to death five or six Jiangxia soldiers around him in an instant. The remaining dozen Jiangxia soldiers were shocked and hurriedly retreated. Gan Ning's face was hideous, he pulled out his horses, and rushed towards them quickly, and after a random chopping, the Jiangxia soldiers who had been protecting Gan Ning were all hacked to death by Gan Ning.
Lu Meng silently watched the scene of Gan Ning killing Jiangxia soldiers, not only did he not feel the slightest surprise, but he had a little appreciation for Gan Ning in his eyes. Gan Ning is making a nomination. It turned out that he had already surrendered to Sun Quan, so from that moment on, he was Jiangdong's general, and it was natural to kill these Jiangxia soldiers who had a great enmity with Jiangdong.
"Left and right! Why don't you hurry up and send General Gan my Jiangdong armor! β
LΓΌ Meng gave an order, and soon a Jiangdong soldier handed the armor of the Jiangdong horse archers that had been prepared to Gan Ning. Gan Ning smiled, caught it with his big blood-covered hand, and quickly took off the Jiangxia armor and replaced it with the armor of this Jiangdong horse archer.
Since then, Gan Ning has been hiding in LΓΌ Meng's army, temporarily serving as a horse archer. Until the future, when Sun Quan takes over Jiangdong, he will be active in the world again. Let's not talk about it for the time being.
Huang Zhong was still on the run, his fate was uncertain, and with the surrender of Gan Ning to Sun Quan, the Jiangxia army was declared extinct. Sun Ce then sent the captured 6,000 Jiangxia soldiers to one place, and then issued an order that made the 6,000 Jiangxia captives extremely desperate and frightened.
"Dig a pit in this place, take all the Jiangxia prisoners, and kill them all!"
As soon as this order came out, the six thousand Jiangxia captives suddenly screamed in horror and fled frantically in all directions. The Jiangdong soldiers, who had already prepared, immediately raised their butcher knives and slashed at these Jiangxia captives who had no blades. After a brutal massacre, nearly a thousand Jiangxia captives were slaughtered, so that the remaining 5,000 people did not dare to risk their lives to escape.
Huge pits of earth continued to appear, and those Jiangxia captives listened to the continuous sound of shoveling soil, as if they were suffering great torture. Later, there were several waves of Jiangxia captives, who couldn't stand it anymore, and fled desperately, but they were all hacked to death by Jiangdong soldiers.
Two hours later, dozens of huge earth pits were dug, Sun Ce had a cold face, and ordered a Jiangdong team to drive nearly four or five thousand Jiangxia prisoners into the field one by one.
