Chapter 912: One Release and One Kill
Pujia Pass, the top of the city, under the flying of a huge golden dragon battle flag, inside and outside the pass, you can see a queue of Wu soldiers in and out everywhere.
After the rest is completed, the vanguard army has already marched under the city of Ba County, and the main army will naturally be pulled out, and the opening is imminent, and all divisions and regiments are concentrating on every soldier under their command, and Guancheng is naturally a little lively.
In the Guancheng, a camp dedicated to holding Shu army prisoners, a radius of ten miles from this camp, was heavily martial law by the Wu army soldiers, and the Shu army soldiers in the barracks could not fly.
In an independent barracks, Chen Zhi, the general of the Shu army, sat on a chair with a heart like stagnant water, although he was not very old, but his hair was messy, the whole person was unkempt, haggard, and his eyes looked ahead, but there was no trace of light in his pupils, as if he was an old man who had been dying.
It's been many days since the battle, but he still hasn't been able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Pujia Pass was broken inexplicably, the defeat was too fast, it was simply a mountain of defeat, and now he can't figure out what was going on after that chaotic night.
How did Wu Jun enter the city?
How did Wu Jun get around behind them?
There was too much confusion, Chen Zhi didn't want to think about it, and it didn't make any sense to think about it, because he understood one thing, the battle of Pujiaguan was defeated, and Liu Bei was also defeated.
can't hold such a majestic pass as Pujia Pass, whether it is Bajun City or Chengdu City, in the end, it will definitely not be able to stop the iron cavalry of the Wu army.
At the time of the chaos that night, when he retreated, he saw that he was about to be blocked by the Wu army in the city, and he chose to lead the Bai'er elite soldiers to break off, hoping to buy a little time for the king Liu Bei to break through.
The battle was so brutal that every time I think about it seems like a nightmare. Watching the white-eared elite soldiers die in battle, but he was powerless to save, his heart was like a knife, most of the thousands of white-eared elite soldiers had been killed in battle, he should not have survived, but he survived.
He didn't choose to kill himself to fulfill his loyalty. It's not that he's cowardly, but because in his opinion, self-deprecation is the most cowardly behavior.
He was waiting, waiting for the butcher's knife of the Wu army.
Click!!
Footsteps sounded, coming, was it a butcher's knife, or was it a ......
Chen Zhi didn't care, he still sat quietly in the chair, and even the light in his eyes didn't mean to change.
"Chen arrived. What are you thinking about my advice these days? Outside the barracks, Sun Quan pushed the door in, looked at the motionless young man with a burning gaze, and asked.
This young man who is stubborn and stubborn is a mess but Sun Quan wants to surrender the Shu army general.
"Sun Zhongmou, even if you ask me a hundred more times, I will still say the same thing. Chen Zhi will never enter Wu, I was born to be a king. Death is also the king's ghost! ”
Chen Zhi's voice was so cold that there was no trace of emotion.
"Bastard, you dare to call Your Majesty by name!" When Lei Ding heard this, his expression was furious, and he stepped out from behind Sun Quan, and the anger on his body exploded, and the killing intent was directed at Chen Dao.
Chen Zhi felt the breath of gangqi. Only then did he slowly raise his head, looking at Lei Ding, the commander of the Great Wu Praetorian Guard, with a cold smile on the corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but glance at Sun Quan, and smiled faintly: "He is your majesty." But he is the enemy of my Shu Kingdom, calling him Sun Zhongmou, that is if I still give him face, if I don't give him face, a cat and a dog will be just like that! ”
"You're looking for death!"
Lei Ding naturally couldn't bear his words, and directly drew his sword, the blade of which was cold and cold.
"Lei Ding, don't be impatient!"
Sun Quan hurriedly stretched out a hand, pressed Lei Ding's shoulder, and said with a smile: "He is not my Great Wu Zimin, just a title, whatever he wants!" ”
"Your Majesty, this fang is so arrogant, why keep him, just behead the sacrificial flag!"
Lei Ding was a little shy.
When the army goes out, it is necessary to behead the head of the enemy general, and use the blood of the enemy army as the meaning of sacrificing the battle flag, and killing Chen Zhi and sacrificing the battle flag, which can definitely give the morale of the Wu army to a higher level.
"Hahaha, Chen Zhi's head is here, come and get it at any time!"
When Chen Zhi heard this, he pointed at the two of them, laughing wildly, ambitious and fearless.
"Lei Ding, you go out first!" Sun Quan said.
"No, Your Majesty, this fang is not an ordinary person, his martial arts are powerful and invincible to ordinary people, if I can't protect you, I definitely don't worry that you can go within five steps of this fang!"
Lei Ding's persistent way.
"Okay, then shut up for me!" Sun Quan was helpless.
"No!"
Hearing this, Lei Ding put the sword back into its sheath and stood aside, although he didn't speak, his eyes still looked at Chen Zhi fiercely, holding the hilt of the sword, as long as he moved a little, he directly drew the sword.
"Uncle Chen, in fact, you are still young, you are a good martial artist, and you are in a good year, why bother with it!"
Sun Quan walked up, looked at Chen Dao, a playful smile rose slightly at the corner of his mouth, and said step by step: "Liu Bei has already left you, and you have tried your best to protect his safety, you don't owe them anything at all, the ants are still surviving, you are a man with a great future, why are you bent on death, surrendering to my Da Wu, is the best way out for you now!" ”
"The eldest husband is alive, why not be afraid of life and death, I Chen Zhi is not a big person, but I don't want to live in this world with a white head, but I have to endure the torment of the soul day and night, I follow my heart, I am loyal to my righteousness, if I descend to you today, it is against my heart and unrighteous, please forgive me Chen Zhi can't do it!"
Chen Zhi was fearless and said categorically: "Sun Zhongmou, you underestimate me too much, if you know me, you don't have to waste your tongue, my heart is firm, I am not afraid of life and death, if you want to kill, you will be killed, if you want to be sleepy, but if you let me escape, I will kill you in the future!" ”
"It seems that your loyalty to Liu Bei has reached a life and death relationship!"
Sun Quan squinted, he loved and hated Chen Zhihe, and now he understood a little that Cao Cao couldn't get Guan Yu's mood.
This kind of person has the ability, makes people appreciate, has character, and makes people love, but if they miss it under fate, it makes people helpless.
"Since I, Chen Zhi, have followed the king, the king has trusted Chen Zhi and entrusted him with important tasks, and Chen Zhi will not rebel in this life!"
Chen Zhi grinned at the corner of his mouth and raised a smile: "I can't afford the weight of your Sun Zhongmou!" ”
"It seems that I can't convince you, but I really don't want to kill you!"
Sun Quan sat in front of Chen Zhi and looked at him. sighed.
"Sun Zhongmou, if you don't kill me, one day, even if I climb, I will climb next to the king, you can't lock me up!"
Chen Zhi's heart throbbed slightly, but his expression was very firm.
"That being the case. I still don't want to kill you, and after thinking about it, I think I should give you a chance! ”
Sun Quan's gaze flashed with a gleam: "I can let you go and put you back to Liu Bei." ”
"What about the conditions?"
Chen Zhi's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light like stagnant water, but his attitude was very calm.
"No conditions!"
Sun Quan's heart secretly moved, this Chen Zhi was much calmer than ordinary people, he smiled: "I have absolute confidence that I can take down Shuchuan and Liu Bei, but I just want to know whether your loyalty to Chen Zhi has been questioned!" ”
"You want to sow discord?" Chen Zhi's eyes were cold.
"Yes!"
Sun Quan admitted this very calmly. Said: "I will let you go, but I will definitely do some work to make Liu Bei misunderstand you, I want to know, does Liu Bei trust you as always?" ”
"I believe in the King!"
Chen Zhi said very firmly.
"A game is not to the end, don't talk too much, maybe you, the relative guard, you don't know Liu Bei as well as me!" Sun Quan said.
"It's not a game!"
When Chen Zhi heard this, his face was a little pale.
"But in my eyes. This is a game, and the result of the game is where you belong in the future. So you go, you can go now! ”
Sun Quan shrugged, didn't care about his words, and said with some expectation: "I hope that the next time we meet, you will choose to surrender to our Dawu!" ”
"Do you really dare to let me go? You have to know that Shu and Wu do not share the sky. I am not selfish in righteousness, I will never remember this kindness, on the battlefield, I will still take your life, at the cost of it. Behead you! ”
Chen Zhi looked at Sun Quan in disbelief, and his words were three points heavier.
"Hehe, cut off my head, you can't do it!"
Sun Quan looked at him and said: "I am Sun Zhongmou, Great Wu Sun Zhongmou, this is my self-confidence, the person who can kill me will definitely not be you, Lei Ding, you return his weapon to him, and then give him a fast horse, send him out of the customs, and let him go back." ”
"No!"
Lei Ding was unwilling, but he would not disobey the order, he stepped up and faced Chen: "Please!" ”
"Sun Quan, I hope I won't regret it in the future!"
Chen Zhi glanced at Sun Quan deeply, and then without looking back, he strode out of the barracks.
"I will never regret what I do!"
Sun Quan looked at his back, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and his smile was a little cold, as if he was calculating something: "It's just...... I hope you won't regret it either! ”
"Your Majesty, you are letting the tiger go back to the mountain!"
At this time, Xu Shu's figure appeared behind Sun Quan without knowing what.
"The preliminary overall situation of the Western Expedition has been decided, even if this war tiger returns to the mountain, it will not change any outcome of Shuchuan, but I let him go this time, but I can make him a general in the future!"
Sun Quan's eyes flashed with a calculating light: "Among the generals of the Shu camp, some of them will not want even if they surrender, but some of them, I must get, Chen Shuzhi's loyalty is very suitable for my heart, even if I take a little risk, this general, I will also get it!" ”
"But I see his determination, I'm afraid that even if it falls into our hands again in the future, he may not be obedient!" Xu Shu said: "Besides, if you let him go like this, you may not be able to provoke the feelings between Liu Bei and him, Liu Bei has this mind, when the time comes, we will not be a bamboo basket to draw water, and send them back a general!" ”
"Huh!"
Sun Quan stretched out his hand, patted Xu Shu's shoulder, and smiled: "Yuan Zhi, Chen Zhi is indeed loyal, and he is also the kind of die-hard, but he is also a person who cherishes his life, otherwise he would not be a prisoner with his ability, and he has long wanted to be loyal and righteous in blood."
I let him go this time, not to sow discord, but just to bury an introduction in his heart, Liu Bei is not dead, he will not surrender, but if we can kill Liu Bei, he will lose his goal, and it will not be impossible to become a Great Wu general in the future! ”
"For the faint possibility, this is a big risk!" The corners of Xu Shu's mouth twitched and said.
"To calm the world, talent is fundamental, if I can get the loyalty of this general, I am willing to take this risk!" Sun Quan smiled and said, "It's time to see what I do, even if I can't get him in the future, my loss will not be big!" ”
"Your Majesty's courage is something that a minister can do!" Xu Shu complimented and asked, "Then Chen Deng, what does Your Majesty plan to do?" ”
"Kill!" Sun Quan said mercilessly: "I want to kill the boiling Yang, just as the whole Shuchuan knows that Chen Deng was beheaded by me!" ”
"Why?"
Xu Shu was a little surprised, Sun Quan took so much trouble for Chen Zhi, it can be said that he was cherishing his talents, but Chen Deng's talent was definitely not weaker than Chen Zhi, but he didn't recruit and killed him directly.
"Yuan Zhi, some people, I want to surrender in every possible way, but some people, even if he is willing to surrender, I don't dare to use it!"
Sun Quan's eyes showed a murderous light, and he said coldly: "Chen Deng's mind is too deep, he has lost the bottom line in doing things, and he has a grudge with Da Wu three or four times, I am sure, even if he is a Toucheng, he will turn against the water, put him by his side, I am afraid that when he will bite Da Wu back, the gains outweigh the losses, and I plan to use his life to provoke the relationship between Chen Zhi and Liu Bei!" ”
"Your Majesty will kill one after another, it can be described as a clever plan!" Xu Shu suddenly understood Sun Quan's calculation, and said with some admiration.
"What kind of scheming, it's clever wisdom, you can't speak?" When Sun Quan heard this, he squinted at him very unhappily and corrected him. (To be continued.) )
