Chapter 479: Breaking through Jianye
Jianye West Gate.
"Report, the three generals sent their subordinates to fetch food, and asked the captain of the city gate to go out of the city to greet him." A soldier in disguise ran to the city gate, raised his head proudly and shouted at the city.
The captain of the city gate suddenly became angry, and complained to his subordinates: "The three generals are so big, and they will send a grain and grass officer to greet them!" ”
"My lord, silence. If it falls into the ears of the three generals, adults will inevitably suffer from flesh and skin. A small pair reminded.
"Didn't you just carry grain and grass out of the city? How do you get lucky? Could it be that Sun Yi grew up eating! The lieutenant was so angry that he didn't dare to speak.
"Why should you meddle in your affairs, we are not responsible for the food and grass, as long as we guard the city gates."
Sun Yi is brave and fierce, outstanding in force, violent in character, and strict in governing the army. The civil and military generals of these vassal families were not less troubled by Sun Yi. As soon as he heard that it was Sun Yi who came, the city gate guards didn't even bother to ask about the code to enter the city, so as not to be troubled. Besides, there was Sun Quan's army of 100,000 not far away, and the Jianye defenders never dreamed that Jia Xu would come to Jianye from under the nose of Sun Quan's army.
The captain came to the city with a group of soldiers guarding the city, opened the city gates, and greeted them. When he came to the 'grain transport' troops, the captain took a closer look, and there was a familiar face in the crowd, which turned out to be the Hukou guard. The lieutenant said jealously: "The general of the defeated army was also taken in by the three generals, but I can only accompany the city gate in my life, where is the reason!" ”
The lieutenant didn't dare to show too much dissatisfaction, and went straight up to make a gesture of please.
Guo Da, the general arranged by Jia Xu, Guo Da held back his glance at the general at Hukou, strode forward and followed the captain to the city gate.
Without a trace, the general dodged into the group of soldiers at the city gate, advancing side by side next to the captain, and affectionately holding the captain's hand and asking for warmth. Guo Da suddenly became nervous, afraid that this general would expose them immediately. Seeing the drawbridge getting closer and closer, my heart rose to my throat.
"Do it!"
The city gate was in sight, and Guo Da was worried that the water would be reversed, so he had to take the lead.
As soon as Guo Dagang shouted, the general raised his knife and cut the captain in two with one sword. Guo Da was so shocked by the general's movements that his hands slowed down.
"I am determined to serve the general, General Guo should not be suspicious. We'll take down the city gate side by side, and see me make a vote! The general shouted loudly and slaughtered into the crowd of soldiers from the city gates on both sides.
The incident happened suddenly, and the defenders couldn't react for a while, and they became a mess.
"Close the city gates, beat the drums and warn ......"
Guo Da took off the hard attack on his back, continuously opened his bow and arrows, and shot at the defenders in the city. Guo Da's archery skills were very good, and there were no missed arrows within a hundred steps, and each arrow hit a soldier who was closing the city gates.
"General Zhao doesn't want to fight, it's important to take the city." Guo Da saw the shadow of the arrival of reinforcements in the city, and hurriedly reminded the general who was fighting bloodily.
The general slashed the soldiers defending the city in front of him with a sword, raised his long sword, and ran to the city gate with the soldiers.
Jia Xu, who was waiting five miles away, waved his hand, and 30,000 iron horsemen rushed towards Jianye with a shout.
The rumbling sound of horses' hooves, the river is sluggish.
Jianye shouted outside the city to kill the heavens, and the Jiangdong soldiers in the city hurried to support. Guo Da led the Chang'an soldiers to pestle at the gate of the city, and fought against the Jiangdong soldiers who surrounded them. The soldiers of Chang'an and the soldiers of Jiangdong fought together. The combat strength of the Jiangdong soldiers was obviously inferior to the Chang'an soldiers, and after a moment of fighting, the sparsely numbered Chang'an soldiers had the upper hand.
Zhang Hong was summoning the family to express his views on the matter of Sun Quan holding 100,000 heavy troops and not moving. Zhang Hong sneered: "You are worried, we are all big families, and the stability of Jiangdong depends on all of you here, not the Sun family." Is it that his grandson can threaten, with a clear gun and a sword, and a puppet to do it. Not to mention that he only has 100,000 rabbles in his hands, that is, to give him a million troops, if we don't cooperate, what can the Sun family do in Jiangdong? ”
The old man of the Zhu family also said: "It seems that Sun Quan has been too comfortable in the past few years, since he wants to unload the mill and kill the donkey, don't blame us for turning him into a puppet completely." ”
The rest of the families also nodded in agreement. At this moment, the teacup on the table shook, and a doorman broke into the mansion in a panic. Zhang Hong was just about to scold, but the doorman shouted loudly: "Master, it's not good, the enemy cavalry is coming into the city." ”
The people of the family are like thunder, it is unbelievable.
"What about Sun Quan? Where is Sun Quan? And where is his army of 100,000? Zhang Hong was shocked: "I understand! This is Sun Quan deliberately letting Jia Xu come to the east, the purpose is to wipe out our family in order to clear the obstacles for him Sun Quan! ”
Everyone was struck by lightning, and they forgot to react for a while, and even forgot to scold Sun Quan angrily, leaving only one thought: "Run!" ”
"Yes, run!"
"But all my possessions are in the city!" Thinking of this, Zhang Hong only felt that the sky was dark for a while, and he had no strength to support his body.
"There are still a lot of children in my family who are in Jianye, so do this?" The other patriarchs also said with difficulty.
"Damn Sun Quan! Why did you put Jia Xu to build a business? If he can't bear it, don't blame us for being unjust! Surrender! Instead of running out of Jianye and losing all the property accumulated for generations, it is better to take the initiative to surrender, although Lu Bu is ruthless, he will not kill all the people who surrender voluntarily! Zhang Hong said suddenly.
"Let's go! Come on! Don't even think about getting away if you don't go again! Don't give hope of surrender, who is Lu Bu? Butcher of the family. Surrender, joke, wait for death! ”
Some families whose family property is not in Jianye will quit and surrender with Zhang Hong? Even if Lu Bu doesn't kill them all, at least he will scrape the ground and harvest the family's industry.
"Don't let anyone go!" Zhang Hong suddenly changed his former elegance, his face was hideous, and he opened his hands to stop the gate: "Someone!" ”
Zhang Hong shouted, and countless private soldiers rushed out of the front yard and surrounded the lobby.
"Zhang Zigang, what do you mean? Do you want to leave us with you for a burial? ”
"Everyone, I'm sorry! For the sake of the family, I have to make this decision and imprison you! With all of you surrendering together, Jia Xu will not embarrass us. If I let you go, it will be the catastrophe of my Zhang family. After Zhang Hong finished speaking, he bowed down tremblingly and prayed for sin, and after three consecutive bows, he got up and instructed his family:
"Good students serve all gentlemen, and they must not be lazy."
After Zhang Hong finished speaking, he turned around and rushed out of the mansion: "Let's go, go to the palace." ”
Jianye was in turmoil. As soon as Zhang Hong arrived on the street, the civilians were running around, fearing the iron horsemen entering the city like tigers. This is also thanks to the propaganda of the Jiangdong family, who blackened Lu Bu into a person who killed people when he saw them, and ate human flesh raw as a butcher for military rations.
In Jianye City, all the elites were taken to the Qinhuai River by Sun Quan, and the remaining less than 3,000 old, weak, sick and disabled people did not even make a symbolic resistance after Jia Xu broke through the West Gate, and returned directly to the city to rob the civilians of money and food, and then planned to escape from the other city gates.
Jia Xu's army entered the city, and the city was full of chickens and dogs, crying and screaming, which made Jia Xu dumbfounded. The streets and alleys are full of scenes of Jiangdong soldiers robbing the people in the city.
"General Wang, General Lu, General Zhang, General Guo, the four of you each take 3,000 men and horses to guard the city gate, General Guo Da leads 10,000 cavalry to set up a partial camp in the south of the city, and Jianye is a horn, I am afraid that it will not be long before Sun Quan will raise 100,000 or more troops to counterattack Jianye." After Jia Xu finished his order, he remembered Lu Bu's military order and decided to divide the remaining 8,000 people in his hands into another 3,000 to maintain law and order.
"The rest of the horses, follow me to attack the royal city!" Jia Xu looked at the last remaining 5,000 cavalry and laughed at himself: Jianye's security actually needs him, an aggressor, to maintain.
A large wave of people came to the moat of the royal city, and a disheveled old man in the city was in the front, and behind him was a golden plaque carried by two family members, which was the plaque of King Wu rewarded by Cao Cao.
The old man saw an old man dressed as a Confucian separating the crowd, knowing that the person who came was known as a poisonous man, and Jia Xu, who had defeated Cao Cao and Lu Bu several times, did not dare to be careless, and first took the gift of the disciple: "In Zhang Hong, Xiajiangdong, the old Wenwen and Mr. Daming, have been fascinated for a long time." I don't want the two of us to meet in such an occasion and in such a way, ashamed and ashamed. ”
"It turned out to be Zhang Zigang, who was literary, rational and righteous, and was a world commander. Mr. Da's name is like thunder. Sun's talent is only possible in the vast Jiangdong. Compare with Mr. below, just like fireflies and bright moons. Sir, don't be too humble. "What kind of person is Jia Xu, Zhang Hong lifted out the plaque of King Wu, and Jia Xu knew what Zhang Hong thought. Not arrogant at all, but solemnly bowed down.
"I'm sorry, across the city, this is not a hospitable gift. Hong was deeply ashamed. It's just that Hong is uneasy in his heart, and wants to ask what Mr. means by coming here? Is it to kill and rob all or how? ”
Jia Xu knew that this was Zhang Hong questioning him about Chang'an's attitude towards Jiangdong, although Zhang Hong had the intention to surrender to protect the family business, but he was really too anxious, maybe he would fight to die and burn all the grain and grass in the city, and Jia Xu would not be able to stay when he wanted to.
"Governing Wu with Wu." Jia Xu thought about it and replied ambiguously.
"What's the explanation?"
"Whether it is Chang'an or Jiaozhou, whether it is Jingzhou or Yangzhou, it is my Han territory. The general once said that Jiangdong must be governed by Jiangdong people. Mr. is a hundred times more talented than me, is the pillar of the country, if Mr. wants to return to the arms of the Son of Heaven, Xu Ding should try his best to promote Mr. Yangzhou Assassin History. He reunites the world day by day, and the three princes and nine kings are not the position of a gentleman? Jia Xu was full of big words and lies.
Zhang Hongxiang was much older, and sighed: "I don't want any high-ranking officials, nor do I want any assassins Shizhou Mu, the three dukes and nine Qings." As long as I can ensure that my family business is not lost and my family is not defeated, I will be at ease. ”
Jia Xu was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Xu uses reputation as a guarantee, and my Chang'an Iron Cavalry and Minqiu have committed no crimes." As long as Jianye supplies our army with food and grass consumption, it will ensure that no soldier plunders and loots and disturbs the people's livelihood. ”
"Sir's reputation spreads, I believe it." Zhang Hong said helplessly, Jia Xu is known as a poisoner, and he has done a lot of things to turn his face and not admit it. But Zhang Hong didn't have a choice, could it be that with two or three of his old and weak people in the city, he could block the tens of thousands of iron horsemen outside the royal city? Zhang Hong just wants Jia Xu to have an attitude, at least in this way, Jia Xu will not go back on his word without concealing it openly.
"Kaesong!"
This roar, Jia Xu was even more happy. Zhang Hong represents the Jiangdong family, and with Zhang Hong's support, the situation will not be as difficult as it is now.
