Chapter 921: Zhang and Lu Zhineng (II)
As soon as Lu Su said this, most of the soldiers of the Sun family were not good, and they secretly looked at each other. Sun Ce's face sank, and he was still a little hesitant, after all, Lu Su had great talent, and it would be a pity if he lost it.
"Hehe, Zijing has such a determination, why should General Sun Xiao worry about it? Let him go. At this time, Zhang Hong laughed unhurriedly. It is said that Lu Su has three talents, namely eloquence, benevolence and military management. Lu Su once studied under Zhang Hong, and Zhang Hong also understood his ability.
Sun Ce saw that Lu Su was confident, and he couldn't help but feel strong, so he agreed to come down and ask for as many followers as he wanted, but Lu Su didn't want to ride a single horse, as long as he gave a hundred taels of gold as a gift, he went down to prepare.
That night, Sun Ce personally sent Lu Su out of the camp. After Lu Su thanked him, he went up the mountain in the night, holding a torch.
In other words, in the second watch of the night, a scout suddenly came to report, saying that he had caught a fine work of Sun Jiajun, but the man said that it was Lu Su, a famous man in Jiangdong, who came to meet and discuss major matters this time. "Dongcheng Lu Dayu?" Yan Baihu's face changed, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, and at the same time secretly thought: "This child of the Sun family can actually summon this Lu Dayu, could it be that the Sun family got Jiangdong, is it really destiny?" ā
Thinking of this, Yan Baihu suddenly felt a little depressed in his heart, and thought that he was in a difficult situation now, and it was not a long-term solution to stay in this Shicheng Mountain, and it was not a long-term solution to sit on the empty mountain, not to mention Chen Yu and Liu Xuan, one was cunning and insidious, the other was old and cowardly, but they were not reliable people, and these two people were both contemptuous to him, and Yan Baihu did not want to take refuge.
"Call Rugoth! Remember, don't be rude, dare to snub my honored guests, be careful of the dog's life!! Yan Baihu's face tightened, and he was busy ordering left and right.
After a while, Lu Su entered the hall of the thief's den, and saw Yan Baihu wearing a brocade robe, with a huge figure, sitting on a tiger skin seat, and indeed a little majestic. When Lu Su saw it, he couldn't help but smile, and bowed his hand and said: "Lu Mou has heard that the king is amazingly beautiful, and when I saw it today, the rumors are indeed true." Lu is polite here. ā
"Hey, Lu Gaoshi is a famous man in Jiangdong, I am just a thief, and now I have become a thief in the court, and I don't know where to devote myself! Please also ask Lucos to find a way out for me! Yan Baihu's face was anxious, and he hurriedly walked down from the hall, pleading with a sincere face.
When Lu Su heard this, he smiled faintly: "The king is known as the king of Eastern Wude, and there is a treasure land of Shicheng Mountain to rely on, and there are countless fierce generals under his command, and the elite soldiers are like clouds, so why rush to devote himself." I think the king can defend the place, raise the light, and attack when the time comes! ā
"I sincerely begged, but Lu Gaoshi, you secretly ridiculed, this is not to sarcastically mock me!?" When Yan Baihu heard this, his face was dark and unbearable, and he stared at Lu Su coldly. Lu Su did not change color, and asked unhurriedly: "Then according to the king's opinion, why is Lu here?" ā
"Hmph, you don't have to hide it from me, I found out early that you came from the Sun family's camp, and it turned out to be like this, so naturally I want to be a lobbyist for the Sun family!"
"Then let me ask, does the king have the heart to join the Sun family?"
"I originally had the intention to divide Wu County with the Sun family, but the children of the Sun family beheaded my messenger, which was extremely rude, and many of my brothers and brothers died at the hands of him and his men, if I voted for him, wouldn't I be laughed at by the world for being ruthless and unjust, and cowardly as a mouse!?" Yan Baihu glared and shouted, his face full of anger. When Lu Su heard this, he smiled again: "If this is the case, the king naturally can't vote for the Sun family." And I didn't hide it from the king, just a few days ago, the Sun family received an edict from the imperial court that they must withdraw from Wu County within a month, otherwise they will be regarded as thieves. With the difficulty and danger of Shicheng Mountain, even if the Sun family's army attacked and took it hard, the king would defend it for a month, but the problem would not be big. ā
But it was said that Sun Jiajun surrounded the mountain, and it was difficult for Yan Baihu to know the news outside, and now when he heard Lu Su say it, his face suddenly changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "Are you serious?" ā
"Hehe, as a lobbyist of the Sun family, I will only do harm and not benefit when I tell this matter, and it is all for the sake of sincerity." Lu Su smiled, his eyes were full of sincerity, which made Yan Baihu not help believing it, but at the same time, he had a little more respect for him, and hurriedly said: "Lu Gaoshi is sincere and sincere, and this king admires it, but the matter of taking refuge in the Sun family is difficult for this king." ā
"The king is mistaken. From beginning to end, I never persuaded the king to join the Sun family. After all, the Sun family has offended the court and aroused Liu Xuan's jealousy, if the king of the court is a thief in the court, he will definitely be taken advantage of to make a big fuss, but it will also be a hundred disadvantages and no benefit to the Sun family!
And if it weren't for General Sun's respect for the king as a hero, he was afraid that once he withdrew his army, the king would be jointly wiped out by Liu Xuan and Chen Yu, and insisted on persuading the king to take refuge and hold a big event together. Lu didn't want to be this lobbyist. ā
Lu Su said it without violating his intentions, but Yan Baihu's face changed when he heard it, and his eyes widened. Now, as soon as Lu Su finished speaking, Yan Baihu's face was so dark that he was about to drip water, and looked at Lu Su coldly. Lu Su was firm and calm.
After a while, Yan Baihu let out a long breath and said in a deep tone: "The current situation is indeed unfavorable for me, but Lu Gaoshi said that the Sun family respects me and is willing to do great things with me, but I don't believe it." After all, as you said, the current situation of the Sun family is probably not much better than this king! ā
"Your lord, you are wrong. General Sun is the hero of the world, and I won't hide it from you, General Sun has decided to oppose Cao with all the soldiers not long ago! Now the court is being manipulated by Cao thieves, and the world knows it! There are many heroes from all over the world, but no one dares to resist!
After General Sun was a loyal martyr, he had long intended to confront Cao Thief, but he never had the right time. And not long ago, there was a rumor in Luoyang that Cao Thief wanted to be the prime minister, and General Sun was furious when he heard it, and immediately made up his mind to declare the world against King Cao Qin! I don't know if you have the ambition and courage to do great things with General Sun! ā
As soon as Lu Su said this, Yan Baihu's expression couldn't help but change greatly, he didn't expect Sun Ce to dare to confront Cao Cao, the number one minister today, and the shock in his heart for a while was definitely not something that words could describe.
"If the Sun family child is against Cao, it can be said that the mantis arm is blocking the car, but think about it carefully, as long as the Sun family child gets the land of Jiangdong and guards it according to the Yangtze River, I am afraid that Cao Cao will not be able to do anything about him. Moreover, the high ambition of the children of the Sun family is not even inferior to that of the young people, such a character, if I can follow the left and right, but I can also climb the dragon and the phoenix one day, this is better than being wiped out by Liu Xuan and Chen Yu! Yan Baihu's brain was spinning, but he was already shaken, and when he saw Lu Su's frank and upright face, he couldn't help but look solemn, and said humbly: "General Sun's overlord style is indeed admired by the villain." The villain is willing to surrender to General Sun, but before that, the villain still has to try General Sun's guts! ā
"Oh? Please tell me about it. Lu Su couldn't help but smile secretly when he heard Yan Baihu call himself a villain, but he didn't come out, and immediately asked in a deep voice.
"Tomorrow I will order someone to open the city gate to greet me, but I want General Sun to go up the mountain alone to meet him. What does Lugos think? At this time, Yan Baihu suddenly showed a sneer, thinking that he would see Lu Su's color change. Lu Su was not nervous, and said lightly: "If Yan Baihu thinks that this can express sincerity, it can be so." ā
After that, Lu Su escaped from his arms and took out a small package, opened it all with golden gold, and said: "This is a hundred taels of gold, it is General Sun's caution, and please accept it with a smile." ā
Although a hundred taels of gold is not much, but this at least represents an attitude of Sun Ce, Yan Baihu listened, his expression was a little better, so he ordered to accept it left and right, and wanted to leave Lu Su behind. Lu Su seemed to have expected it, and he didn't refuse.
So, early the next morning, Yan Baihu ordered someone to open the city gate early, and sent a henchman to lead a team of men and horses down the mountain to meet Sun Ce.
Half an hour later, in Sun Ce's tent. As soon as Yan Baihu's henchman's voice fell, Han Dang and Huang Gai immediately slapped a few times in unison, both glaring and shouting.
"Fuck!! What is Yan Baihu's intention to dare to let my father-in-law go to see him alone!? ā
"Wow~!! I think this Yan Baihu has eaten leopard gall, such a clumsy measurement, even a three-year-old child can't be fooled, and he dares to deceive me!! ā
Hearing Huang Gai and Han Dang's shouts explode like thunder, Yan Baihu's henchmen were so frightened that their faces changed, for fear that these two fierce men who were like fierce beasts would tear themselves apart.
"Hey! The two of them are a little restless! At this time, Sun Ce suddenly raised his hand, but shouted with an indifferent face.
"Lord, do you want to!?" As soon as Han Dang saw Sun Ce's expression, he knew what he was thinking, and his face couldn't help but change.
Huang Gai rushed out even more urgently, and shouted urgently: "If the lord is determined to go, the last general is willing to go with him to protect the left and right!" ā
"I'm willing to go with my lord!!" As soon as Huang Gai's voice fell, Zhou Tai, Song Qian, Chen Wu and other generals were not far behind, and they all got up and asked for their lives.
"Hahaha~!" Seeing this, Sun Ce raised his head and laughed, laughed, and said: "It's rare that you are all loyal and commendable, but it's a pity that Yan Baihu only invited me Sun someone." If I take you with me, wouldn't Yan Baihu laugh at me for being a coward? In this way, if I were that Yan Baihu, I would also be contemptuous, and how could I be willing to come down? ā
"But what if that Yan Baihu has another trick and doesn't really come to surrender?" Zhou Taiyi narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked in a deep voice. Sun Ce smiled, silently cast a look at Zhang Hong, who was sitting on the side, and then quickly took it back and said, "Isn't there still Lu Zijing there?" And he had already said yesterday that I should go to the receiving city today. I believe in Zijing! ā
The sentence 'I believe Zijing' hit everyone's hearts like an iron ball, and when Zhang Hong heard this, he was quite satisfied with his long beard and smiled. The faces of the generals also changed, and they didn't know how to continue to persuade for a while.
At this time, Sun Ce stood up, his eyes were firm and majestic. The generals saw that Sun Ce was determined, but they no longer tried to persuade him. Sun Ce immediately took a step, raised a somewhat uninhibited and playful smile, and said to the thief who was looking at it intently: "Let's go!" ā
Hearing Sun Ce's words fall, the thief's heart couldn't help but jerk, and after coming back to his senses, his face was full of admiration and respect, and his eyes were a little more excited, and he hurriedly surrendered his promise.
At the same time, on Shicheng Mountain, Yan Baihu's face was cold, and he was looking at the road down the mountain, when he suddenly opened his mouth and said in a low voice: "Lu Gaoshi, I have a mention of yƬ, I don't know if you want to hear it." ā
But the one who saw Yan Baihu next to him was Lu Su. When Lu Su heard this, he seemed to have expected it, and smiled and said, "The king might as well say it directly." ā
"I respect you, Lu Gaoshi, and I am even willing to surrender to the Sun family, mostly because of your face. But what if Sun Bofu didn't have the courage to come? Yan Baihu didn't say his mention quickly, but instead went around in a circle, and then turned his head and looked at Lu Su coldly.
Lu Su still had that innocent smile on his face, but his eyes were constricted and bright, as if he could see through people's hearts, and he couldn't help but smile when he heard it.
