We think too much about it, and this worry is unnecessary.

Artillery, I left a thousand infantry escorts. It was these 1,000 infantry who easily blocked the reinforcements of Eastern Wu.

Soochow reinforcements rushed forward with spears and broadswords. A thousand infantry with muskets in their hands around our red-coated artillery lined up.

Our guns have not yet been switched automatically, and it takes more than ten seconds to reload a bullet. So 300 people put a bullet in an echelon and took turns.

When the distance was within range of the firearms, our infantry firearms aimed at the Soochow army rushing from the opposite side.

"Bang bang bang! ......" After a burst of smoke, the Soochow army that rushed to the front fell in an instant.

The soldiers in the back are still rushing forward, and our second echelon is ready.

"Bang bang bang! ......" After another burst of smoke, the Soochow army fell again.

Although the soldiers of Soochow sacrificed two groups, they were getting closer and closer to our artillery.

So our infantrymen did not have time to change the gunpowder in their guns, and they took out the grenades on their waists.

Grenades were thrown into the Soochow army like a flock of crows.

In an instant, the Soochow army blossomed. The power of the grenades was enormous, and their strikers were killed and wounded.

Our army that rushed out of the city has already caught up, and this reinforcement from Soochow is simply charging to the death.

By the time we rushed over, this group of Soochow reinforcements had already been surrounded by us. They eventually surrendered.

Our army is overwhelmed, and our hot weapons are completely victorious. In this battle, we killed more than 3,000 people in Eastern Wu and captured more than 6,000 people. And we only paid the price of seven casualties, three of which were due to the explosion of shells. The four unlucky ghosts died from cold arrows.

After a short break, we drove straight in. Everything is so simple. Often, as soon as our cannons are fired, one or two cannons are fired at the opposite side, and the opposite side will obediently surrender.

Finally, we hit Sun Quan's hometown.

Sun Quan and his generals are waiting for us on the city walls.

We have the same siege, the same first to use artillery to carry out a shock attack.

After our first round of artillery fire, I stood under the city with a loudspeaker.

"General Sun, it's been a long time."

Sun Quan stood on the city wall with a sword hanging from his waist. And they didn't pull it out, they had already seen the power of our cannons, and knew that it would be futile to resist.

"Mr. Tu, don't come unharmed. I can't see that your heavenly thunder is so powerful. Are you deceiving people too much, and what kind of ability is it to win with heavenly thunder? I have the ability to come over and fight to the death with my Sun Quan. ”

I smiled, Sun Quan is also a hero. Stronger than Cao Cao.

So I said, "General Sun, I can't do as much as you right away." But as you can see, our artillery is hugely powerful. It is in vain that you resist. ”

In troubled times, Sun Quan groaned for a moment and said, "Mr. Tu, you and I are old friends." Let's not sell it, you say, what conditions. ”

Those who know the times are Junjie, and I admire Sun Quan's courage to take it up and let go.

"General Sun, as long as you lay down your arms and surrender. We promise not to touch a single hair of you or any of your men. Instead, we'll reuse you and your men. We are not fighting the world for ourselves, but for the Son of Heaven who welcomes us. General Sun has probably heard that the whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister. We are all courtiers of the Son of Heaven, what do you say? ”

Sun Quan nodded: "What Mr. Tu said is very true, we are willing to surrender."

"Okay, General Sun has a general understanding. Tu admired! ”

I'm very happy that it is the best choice to be able to take Soochow without blood. No one is born with a penchant for killing.

I continued to shout, "General Sun, you are a hero. I won't say anything superfluous, if you surrender in Kaecheng, this Soochow is still your General Sun's. We can make you the lord of this Eastern Wu. Continue to serve your people in Soochow. It's just that we don't need to provoke this war with the blood of our soldiers anymore, you say. ”

The Soochow soldiers on the city wall immediately exploded, which was good news. We agreed to Sun Quan's surrender. We will continue to reserve positions for Sun Quan, but we will not give him military power again, and Sun Quan, like Liu Bei, will govern one side and benefit the people.

This is a huge temptation of interests, if Sun Quan is lowered, his face and his treatment will continue to be preserved.

"Mr. Tu. Thank you Mr. Tu for your kindness, Sun is grateful. Just allow me to think about it. ”

Sun Quan is obviously tempted, and the iron needs to be struck while it is hot. So I smiled: "Of course you can, as long as General Sun is willing to surrender." Except for the soldiers of Soochow, everything else is still yours. ”

There was no more talk on the wall, and I did not persuade again.

I continued to have the soldiers around the city, and I waited. I knew Sun Quan would agree.

Sure enough, after a while, the gates opened. Sun Quan led his civil and military officials out.

Our men immediately greeted us, and I stepped down from my tiger chair and ran over.

"Oops, General Sun. Congratulations, General Sun's benevolence and righteousness, Tu admires and admires. ”

At least I have to give him a step down, so I continued: "General Sun is for the country and the people, so that the people of Eastern Wu will not be ruined. I thanked General Sun for the people of Eastern Wu. ”

People had to bow their heads under the eaves, Sun Quan did not have the arrogance of the past, he hugged his fists: "Mr. Tu is polite." As long as Mr. Tu is willing to treat my people of Eastern Wu well, Sun Quan will be loyal. ”

I took his hand: "General Sun's words are wrong. We are not loyal to anyone, we are for the Han. ”

Sun Quan regarded this as my hypocrisy, for the sake of the Han. Who doesn't know that the current Han Dynasty is already in name only, and I am still attacking the city in the name of Sheng Han.

At that moment, Sun Quan smiled: "What Mr. Tu said is right."

In order to appease the people, I took Sun Quan's hand and entered the city together.

This trick worked very well, and the people of Soochow whispered. They didn't expect me to be so polite to Sun Quan. Since he was polite to General Sun, it was better for these people, so the people in the city celebrated.

The first thing our men did when they entered the city was to collect the surrendered troops. Collect their weapons and take them over.

We replaced the guards of Sun Quan's mansion with our men.

I said, "General Sun, if you have any needs, or if you have any grievances. Please also ask General Sun to inform me, and Tu will definitely give General Sun an explanation. ”

Sun Quan smiled: "Mr. Tu is polite. As long as Mr. Tu treats the people of Eastern Wu well, Sun Quan has nothing else to ask for. ”

I nodded: "The people of Dongwu are also the people of my Han Dynasty." We are a family. ”

Sun Quan laughed: "Yes, we are a family."
