Chapter 689: Zhang Xun surrenders

"Sun Xiao'er, listen to me, Lao Tzu will never surrender!! If you want to kill, you have to chop, even if you want to do it!! Otherwise, don't blame me for insulting the eighteenth generation of your Sun family's ancestors!! Zhang Xun shouted angrily, his face was full of hideous ferocity, and he just wanted to provoke Sun Ce to die. Sun Ce ignored it, snorted coldly, pulled out the horse and left. Seeing Sun Ce like this, Zhang Xun was even more angry, and was about to insult, but he was gagged by a white silk stuffed by a Sun family soldier, and he could only whine.

But by noon, all the officers and soldiers under Sun Ce's command had just finished reorganizing and dividing all the prisoners, and now the total number of Sun Jia's army was nearly seven or eight thousand, and two-thirds of them were all from Yuan Shu's deployment. It's just that now these people all hate Qiao Rui very much, so Sun and Zhou are not afraid that they will rebel.

At this time, the scout reported quickly, as Zhou Yu expected, Qiao Rui took advantage of Zhang Xun's fighting last night, withdrew all the deployments of Anyang, and rushed to Ancheng, the main city of Runan. At the same time, after Qiao Rui left, he also specially taught Xizuo to spread legends in the city, saying that Zhang Xun and Sun Ce had long had a friendship, but now seeing that the situation was not good, he had already secretly taken refuge in the Sun family. And because of this, Qiao Rui had no choice but to abandon Anyang in order to protect the main city of Ancheng!

"Woo~~!! Woo~~!! When Zhang Xun heard the report, he couldn't help but roar angrily, but he was still gagged, but he didn't know what he was scolding.

Zhou Yu smiled, then cast a look at Ling Cao, Ling Cao understood, and immediately rushed over with a fierce look, grabbing the white silk in Zhang Xun's mouth.

"Wow, ahh~~!! The little man of the bridge not only deceived me, but also slandered me like this!! If I don't kill him, how can I swallow this grudge!? I saw that Zhang Xun was furious, so angry that his face was red and his ears were red, and he scolded on the spot.

"Brother Zhang, you also said in the past that a man's husband should be happy and revengeful, otherwise he will not be a hero! In the past, my father sacrificed his life and forgot to die for Yuan Shu's dog thief, and made countless achievements. But after my father died, Yuan Shu's dog thief fell into the well of my grandson's family and took advantage of the fire to rob him! This revenge is not shared, I seek revenge on him, it is the filial piety of the whole!

And Brother Zhang, you are indiscriminate, aiding and abusing, and now you are humiliated, but you can't do anything, so as not to be desolate~! ”

"Humph!! Child, don't want to use such a little trick as agitation!! My lord is eloquent and strategic, but he is not a wise man, how can you be a child like you!? ”

"If that Yuan Shu dog thief is really Mingjun, with his family background and financial resources, I am afraid that he would have unified the south a long time ago, how could he fall into such a dangerous place today, and how could there be a selfish and indiscriminate general like Qiao Rui under his command?" Speaking of this, Sun Ce showed a bright smile. Zhang Xun's eyes widened slightly, and he didn't know how to refute for a while. As Sun Ce said, Yuan Shu was arrogant, self-serving, and often acted casually, with unknown rewards and punishments. It is precisely because of his temperament that there are many subordinates under his command who only know how to flatter and are selfish.

Seeing that Zhang Xun didn't answer, Sun Ce shot out two fine lights with a pair of overlords, and then said: "And under the command of my Sun Bofu, the military is strict, everything is governed according to the law, based on benevolence and righteousness, filial piety first, rewards and punishments are based on merit, do not look at relatives, do not take the noble and low." Therefore, everyone can strive for self-improvement and work together to create a great cause!! ”

only listened to Sun Ce's loud shouting, the words were powerful, everyone listened to it, and their hearts were shocked, and their eyes became hot. Zhang Xun looked around and found that the civil and military forces in this small tent, everyone's eyes were so sincere and full of fighting spirit, and the whole gave people a sense of righteousness and brightness. After thinking about it, Zhang Xun suddenly remembered that in the Shouchun Palace, Yuan Shu's command was obviously full of talents, but for some reason he seemed lifeless, and sometimes it even made people frightened.

"Brother Zhang, Yuan Shu, whether it is his talent or his nature, is not the choice of Mingjun. Although Sun has not yet become a big player, there is no shortage of young talents under his command, and there are even some loyal ministers to my Sun family to help! Sun is very confident that in the future, in this troubled world, he will create a great cause, but if you are willing to surrender to me, you must make the best use of your talents! Sun Ce's domineering shout was like a magic force, Zhang Xun had to admit that his heart was shaking, and he couldn't help but look at Sun Ce.

For some reason, at that moment, Zhang Xun's heart fluttered, and then his body knelt down uncontrollably, and when he reacted and said that sentence, it was too late.

"I want to surrender!"

The impact of four simple words is far from unimaginable. It can be known that Zhang Xun is one of the three-pointed knives under Yuan Shu's command and has a high status in Yuan Shu's army. Now, whether Zhang Xun is afraid of death or wants to take revenge on Qiao Rui, but his choice to surrender to Sun Ce, who is far younger than himself, is already very unexpected. At the same time, Zhang Xun's move undoubtedly inspired the cadres under Sun Ce's command and made them have greater expectations for the future.

As for Zhou Yu, what Zhou Yu thought more about was that since Zhang Xun threw himself like this, the five or six thousand prisoners in the army could be prepared faster and mobilized in the future.

"Hahaha~~!! Good! Good~!! Good~!!! In the future, I will have Brother Zhang's assistance to help me grow my wings, so why worry about the great cause~!? As for Sun Ce, he was overjoyed because of his old love and love for Zhang Xun, so he hurriedly got up and rushed over, helped Zhang Xun up, and personally untied him.

The next day, Sun Ce ordered Zhang Xun to lead 3,000 troops to Anyang, and the soldiers of Anyang City were shocked when they saw that it was Zhang Xun, and some people even believed that Qiao Rui said that Zhang Xun and Sun Ce colluded. However, because Zhang Xun is known for his loyalty in the army, there are many soldiers who refuse to believe Zhang Xun's betrayal. Zhang Xun then told Qiao Rui the ins and outs of being greedy for life and afraid of death, and abandoning and slandering him. At this time, many people suddenly woke up and responded to Zhang Xun one after another, and the city became chaotic. Seeing this, Zhang Xun hurriedly opened the door, and many people immediately responded. Zhang Xun was waiting outside, only to see the city gate open, and immediately led the troops to rush in, before the crossbowmen in the city could react, Zhang Xun led a lot of deployments into the city.

And the Sun family's army, who had been waiting for the opportunity to move, but as soon as he heard Zhou Yu's order, the whole army set out and went towards Anyang City together. When the guards in the city saw this, they were all frightened and scattered, and at this time, Zhang Xun shouted surrender to avoid death, so more people turned to Zhang Xun's side. And the other three city gates, and the people and horses who were stationed in the city, heard that the east gate had been breached, not only did not quickly rescue, but fled for their lives, many of them soldiers and soldiers left, did not forget to loot the merchants, the people, and even some family mansions were also smashed, making Anyang City a wailing cry.

When Zhang Xun heard that someone was looting, he was furious and immediately led his troops to kill. As for Sun Jiajun, Zhou Yu heard about the situation in Anyang at that time and knew that this was a good time to appease the people, so he immediately transferred the soldiers and horses to the three teams of the city, of which Huang Gai and Ling Cao led one team to pursue the fleeing enemy army, and the other two teams were led by Sun Ce and him respectively, one left and one right, each to one side, to quickly suppress the turmoil in the city and pacify the people!

Zhou Yu allocated a certain amount, and everyone immediately led their troops according to his allocation. By noon that day, the turmoil in the city had been quickly pacified under the joint efforts of Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Zhang Xun, and countless prisoners had been taken.

Sun Ce was also ruthless, beheading all the captives who injured the people in the looting, and the people could still be excited and applaud at first, but when he saw that Sun Ce had beheaded almost five or six rounds, and there were nearly sixty or seventy people, but he had no intention of stopping, he gradually showed a look of horror and fear, and some people couldn't even stand it.

Seeing this, many soldiers did not dare to persuade Sun Ce, but came to Zhou Yu instead. After all, Sun Ce is obedient to Zhou Yu, and more importantly, Zhou Yu is not only fair-skinned and handsome, but also easy to speak, of course, this is on the premise that he will not anger him.

It turns out that Jing has been getting along for many days, Zhou Yu's temperament, everyone now knows five or six, among them, don't look at Zhou Yu is approachable, in fact, he is arrogant from the bottom of his bones, if he doesn't like or dislike people, most of them can't eat and go. Once, there was a soldier who behaved rudely, often without covering his mouth, and was very displeased with Zhou Yu, who had just arrived but could control the power in the army, so he often slandered in front of the generals. Many people secretly reported to Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu did not attack, anyway, he gave him ten jars of good wine, which was very flattering. When the soldier had received the reward, he was overjoyed, and he boasted in front of the people, and when he said that he was rising, he wanted to open the altar and drink. At that time, many people kindly persuaded him, saying that there was a clear prohibition of alcohol in the army, and that he could only drink alcohol except in the case of celebration or orders from above, otherwise he should be severely punished. How do you know that the soldier got carried away for a while, not only ignored the kind persuasion of others, but also really opened a jar of wine and drank it, who knew that just a few sips, a soldier rushed into the tent on the order of Zhou Yu, and scared the soldier who was drinking almost choked to death on the spot, and then the soldier was taken to Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu actually listed more than ten crimes at once, if they were all severely punished according to law, the soldier was afraid that he would be killed several times, and he was so frightened that he quickly admitted his mistake and begged for mercy. In the end, Zhou Yu can be regarded as an adult, and it is said that nearly three-quarters of him was exempted, but Rao was like this, and he still beat that person to the point that his skin was rotten, and he passed out to death, and after that, no one in the army dared to oppose Zhou Yu, and he didn't even dare to say bad things lightly.

Of course, Zhou Yu has always respected me and I respect you, as long as you don't provoke him and show a certain amount of respect, it's easy to say.

But he said that when Zhou Yu listened to the persuasion of those soldiers, he should not share their thoughts, but only smiled and said: "To govern the world, it is not enough to have benevolence and righteousness, it must be governed by law and discipline, as long as it violates the law and hurts the society, it must be severely punished, and it must not be tolerated and adulterous, so the so-called 'law' can have majesty at all, so that everyone can obey it!" ”

As soon as Zhou Yu's words came out, everyone listened to them reasonably, and they couldn't help but bow their heads.

It turned out that Sun and Zhou had long discussed how to govern this troubled world in the future, and the two finally agreed to rule by law and discipline, believing that as long as everyone abides by the law and discipline, and strictly enforces it, the society will have rules and regulations, stable and not chaotic!

Without further ado, it seems that Sun Ce beheaded all the criminals that day, and the people were in awe. Sun Ce then taught people to open the grain depot, and because Qiao Rui was in a hurry last night, there were nearly thousands of loads of grain left in the grain depot. Sun Ce then taught the people to take out half of it and distribute it to the people, so as to appease the people, and Anyang quickly stabilized.

But this time, he turned his gaze back to Cao Ren's tent. When Cao Ren heard the results of the Battle of Anyang, Rao was a figure like him, and he couldn't help but be shocked, and even swallowed his saliva.

"In this way, the Sun family's army now plus the defenders in Anyang City, there are tens of thousands of people, plus the people and horses who sneaked from Jiangdong, there are nearly 20,000 soldiers! In just this half a month, the Sun family's army has grown so far, it's really terrifying!! There must be a peerless strategist in this Sun family's army whose talent is comparable to that of Chu, Han, Zhang, and Fan!! Cao Ren shook his spirit and thought secretly.

At this time, a soldier suddenly rushed in, and saw him in the dust, burly and bold, it was Cao Hong.

"Hahahaha~~!! Great joy, I just came back from Liu Xuanli, and Liu Xiang has promised that in three days, he will send troops to Huainan~!! As soon as Cao Hong's words came out, everyone's hearts were shocked again. It turned out that Cao Ren had received a secret letter from the military advisor Xun Yu a few days ago, so he sent Cao Hong and a group of elites to secretly go to Yangzhou to discuss with Liu Miao about the attack on Yuan.
