Wu Ping didn't expect that Diao Xiong's methods were so brutal, he refused to give in, and he even starved himself.

With her Jiangdong clan background and Sun Jian's wife, she is respectful and respectful, and she stretches out her hand to open her mouth and eat with clothes, not to mention that she has been hungry for a meal, even if it is coarse tea and light rice, she has never tasted it.

Wu Ping felt humiliated again, but he was fearless, snorted, and said proudly: "A gentleman doesn't eat the food that comes from him, do you think that you can make me succumb by starvation, you underestimate me Wu Ping too much." ”

"Mrs. Wu has a big breath." Mink Xiong sneered, "It seems that you are also used to ordinary brocade clothes and jade food, and you have not tasted the taste of starvation for those of us from humble backgrounds, very good, it will depend on how many days you can last." ”

After that, Diao Xiong had no more nonsense, and waved his hand to order the sergeant to escort Wu Ping down.

Seeing the situation, Xu Chu beside him couldn't help but say in a rough voice: "General, this Wu Ping, as a prisoner, is still so arrogant, just kill her with one sword, why bother so much." ”

"Of course it's easy to kill, but Ben wants to make her obedient and surrender, so it's interesting." Diao Xiong sneered, his expression playful.

Wu Ping was imprisoned on the front foot, and in less than half a day, Sun Shangxiang, who was in the camp outside the city, hurried to arrive.

"General Mink, what happened to my mother and second brother?" As soon as he entered the account, Sun Shangxiang asked eagerly, obviously also worried when he heard about the capture of his mother and second brother Sun Quan.

"Don't worry, since your second brother Sun Quan has surrendered to me, I naturally won't kill him, as for your mother......" Diao Xiong's words changed sharply, adding a bit of slaughter, "She is self-assured and fierce, and she is still rampantly tight, so I plan to starve her for a few days and teach her a lesson until she is willing to surrender." ”

"I plan to starve her for a few days", this sentence was an understatement, but Sun Shangxiang listened to Sun Shangxiang's drastic change.

"Mother, she is peaceful and respectful, how can she survive hunger, I implore General Mink to show mercy." Sun Shangxiang bit her lip tightly, endured the shame of groveling, and pleaded with Mink Xiong.

Diao Xiong raised his head and looked at her, but his eyes were as cold as ice, and he said coldly: "This troubled era pursues the natural principle of becoming a king and defeating a villain, and the weak eat the strong, your Sun family wants to put me to death, I didn't kill her and your second brother, I am already extraordinarily gracious, who told her to refuse to surrender, do you still want to make me kneel down and beg her to surrender?" ”

Diao Xiong's words, although they sounded cruel and cold, but they were the truth, Sun Shangxiang was smart, how could he not understand this truth.

Sun Shangxiang was speechless for a while, and his eyes were full of melancholy.

She has been captive by Mink Xiong for a long time, she has seen Mink Xiong's methods with her own eyes, and knows his cruelty well, and now her mother refuses to give in, only afraid that Mink Xiong will really starve her to death.

After hesitating again and again, Sun Shangxiang secretly gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice: "General, please give me a chance, let me persuade my mother to surrender to you." ”

Mink Xiong glanced at Sun Shangxiang, was silent for a moment, and then waved his hand and asked someone to take Sun Shangxiang to see Wu Ping.

"Thank you, General." Sun Shangxiang was grateful, and hurriedly got up and hurriedly retired.

Shouchun County Mansion, backyard cell.

In that gloomy room, Wu Ping sat there with frowning eyebrows, biting her lip secretly, and pressing her hands on her abdomen, and the sound of "cooing" came from time to time.

She had been hungry for half a day, and since she was a child, it was the first time she had been starved for so long, and she had begun to feel the pain of hunger.

The sound of footsteps sounded, Sun Shangxiang entered from outside, and when he saw Wu Ping like this, he couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Mother...... "Mother " she whispered softly.

Wu Ping raised her head and looked at the girl she saw, stunned for a moment, and endless surprises suddenly surged on her pale face.

"Xiang'er, you're still alive!" Wu Ping, who was excited, burst into tears and stretched out her hands.

Sun Shangxiang threw herself into her mother's arms, and when the mother and daughter saw each other, they couldn't cry, and they had endless things to say.

The two of them cried for a long time, and their emotions eased, but Wu Ping wiped away the tears, and couldn't help but wonder: "Xiang'er, why is Mink Xiong so kind to let you come to see me?" ”

She sighed lightly, took her mother's hand, and persuaded her: "Mother, my daughter is here to persuade her mother to stop pretending to be strong, to be that senseless reserve, and bow her head to General Mink." ”

As soon as these words came out, Wu Ping was shocked and ashamed when she heard it.

Wu Ping, who was ashamed, glared at her daughter and said in disbelief: "Xiang'er, what did the prodigal son surnamed Mink do to you, to make you like this, you actually came to persuade your mother to give in to him, do you know shame!" ”

Facing her mother Wu Ping's questioning, all Sun Shangxiang could respond to was a faint sigh.

"Mother, I persuade you like this, it is also for the good of your mother, you don't know how ruthless that mink man's methods are, if you don't give in, he will definitely starve you to death, you just listen to your daughter's persuasion."

When Sun Shangxiang spoke, her pretty face still flashed with palpitations.

Wu Ping was more and more shocked the more she listened, and the more she listened, the more angry she became, a face that still had charm was already distorted with anger, and her plump chest was also violently rising and falling because of her angry breathing.

"Xiang'er, your father is the Tiger of Jiangdong, a famous general in the world, as his daughter, how can you be so greedy for life and afraid of death, and fall to such a point, you have simply lost the face of our Sun family, are you worthy of your father!"

Wu Ping reproached Sun Shangxiang deeply, and hated him with an indisputable disappointment.

In the face of her mother's reproach, Sun Shangxiang raised her eyebrows, a little grievance appeared on her pretty face, and sighed bitterly: "At the beginning, my daughter tried her best to promote her father to negotiate peace with Mink Xiong, and everyone Mink Xiong had already prepared a carriage and horse to send me back. But my father, completely disregarding my life and death, blatantly treacherous, secretly attacked Diao Xiong, but was killed by others. Mother, tell me, am I sorry for my father, or is my father sorry for me? ”

Wu Ping's expression changed, and her excited emotions calmed down a little.

Looking at Sun Shangxiang's aggrieved face, a little shame flashed in Wu Ping's eyes, and she was speechless for a while.

After a moment of silence, the shame on Wu Ping's face gradually faded, her expression returned to anger, she glared at Sun Shangxiang angrily, and said sharply: "There are only children who have done wrong things in this world, and there are no fathers who have done wrong things, no matter what your father has done, you are not qualified to blame him, even if he tells you to die, you must obey, this is the way of humanity!" You dare to blame your father now, it's a great rebellion! ”

"Mother, you-" Sun Shangxiang was choked speechless in the face of her mother's reprimand.

The words "great rebellion and unfilial piety" are pressed on the top of her head like this, what else can she say.

Seeing that her mother was so persistent, Sun Shangxiang could only shake her head helplessly, her expression full of sadness and loss.

She was thinking about the Sun family wholeheartedly, but in the end, she was reprimanded by her mother for being rebellious and unfilial.

"In that case, then the daughter has nothing to say, mother take care." After that, Sun Shangxiang sighed faintly and retreated.

The door shut, and the silence of death returned.

Wu Pingshi lost her temper and consumed a lot of physical strength, which calmed down her mood a little, and she became more and more hungry.

"I don't believe it, that mink male really dares to starve me to death, hum!"

……

Hefei City.

In the lobby of the temporary military palace, Sun Jiantie sat on it with a blue face, his face full of anger.

Shouchun fell, the essence of Huainan was lost, and his Sun Jian was already discredited.

Now defeated and fled to Hefei, the defeated soldiers under his command are only thousands, but there is news from Shouchun that Diao Xiong is preparing to take advantage of the victory to go south and approach Hefei.

Also, the fine work left in Shouchun has sent back the news, and even his wife and second son have all fallen into the hands of Diao Xiong.

The situation was so unfavorable that it was enough to make Sun Jian extremely annoyed.

Syllable!

Sun Jian slapped the case a few times, and said hatefully: "Mink male thief, take away my Shouchun, and dare to capture my wife and children, it is really hateful, my Sun Jian will not take Shouchun back, and I will not give up!" ”

When the generals heard this, they were all shocked and shocked.

Of course, the generals knew that in such a situation of great loss of troops and low morale, it was almost impossible to recapture Shouchun, but they were afraid of annoying Sun Jian, so no one dared to squeak.

"Zibu, tell me how we can recapture Shouchun." Sun Jian's gaze fell on Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao coughed a few times, took a deep breath, and said: "It is natural to take Shouchun back, but Zhao thinks that with the current strength of our army, it is probably impossible to recapture Shouchun without a period of recuperation." ”

Zhang Zhao was straightforward and dared to tell the truth, and as soon as he said this, the rest of the generals also nodded.

Sun Jian frowned, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't take Shouchun back, will you just sit and wait for Mink Xiong to raise troops from Shouchun to the south and attack Hefei?" ”

"Diao Xiong has been fighting with our army for several months, and I am afraid that it is already the end of the crossbow, I think we might as well take advantage of this time to make peace with it, so as to buy enough time for our army to regain strength."

Peace!

As soon as he heard Zhang Zhao mention the words, Sun Jian's expression immediately changed, and he was about to get angry.

"Back then, Gou Jian lay down and tasted the courage, so that he could make a comeback and achieve hegemony, the lord god Wu Xiong is strategic, is it better to Gou Jian?" Zhang Zhao didn't wait for Sun Jian to get angry, so he asked rhetorically.

Sun Jian's body was shocked, and he was silent for a while.

With Sun Jian's wisdom, how could he not know that in this case, it would be a problem to hold Hefei, let alone regain Shouchun.

It's just that his status as a famous general has never made him able to put down his face.

Zhang Zhao brought out the allusion of Gou Jian, just to give Sun Jian face and let him have a step down.

"Besides, if the peace negotiation is successful, you can welcome back the second son and his wife, killing two birds with one stone." Zhang Zhao persuaded again.

Frowning and thinking hard for a long time, Sun Jian's mood gradually calmed down, and after a long time, he let out a helpless sigh.

"The previous peace negotiation in Ancheng, we had to tear up the agreement, and now Diao Xiong is gaining the upper hand, even if we want to make peace, I'm afraid he may not be willing." Sun Jian said worriedly.

Zhang Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the lord has a way, maybe he can lure Diao Xiong to negotiate peace with us." ”
