Chapter 262: What a big gap
The sky was overcast, and there was no light in sight.
On the rolling hills, Sun Quan and his hundreds of remnants hurried along.
It has been three days since he left Danyang County, and before, Sun Quan's personal army, plus more than 1,000 defeated troops led by Zhuge Jin, plus some stragglers who were temporarily gathered, Sun Quan was barely able to put together an army of thousands of people.
But now, the hearts of the people are scattered, the soldiers have fled, and by now, there are less than 500 soldiers and horses around him.
There are still four or five hundred miles away from the nearest county of Huiji County, and there is no village in front of it, and there is no shop in the back, and the soldiers are hungry and tired, and the people are panicked.
Behind him, the surging cavalry was approaching.
At this point, Sun Quan didn't know why he still wanted to escape, even if he could escape to Huiji alive, he knew very well that the general trend was gone, and he had no chance to recover.
He really couldn't understand why, in less than a month, he had gone from being the overlord of the three states to such a situation of betrayal and homelessness.
How difficult it is to rise. decay, but so fast.
Such a huge gap between heaven and earth, until now, Sun Quan can't accept it.
He didn't dare to think about it, and the thought of it made his heart ache like a knife.
"Lord, everyone has been marching for most of the day, and they are too tired to work, so it is better to take a break for a while." Zhuge Jin gasped and pleaded.
"Oh."
Sun Quan just responded listlessly, and immediately strangled the war horse under his crotch.
Five hundred panting remnants sat silently on the side of the road resting.
No one spoke, and the atmosphere was deadly silent.
"Lord, drink saliva."
Zhuge Jin wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and offered the water bladder with both hands.
Sun Quan took it listlessly, took a sip indiscriminately, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Ziyu, do you think we still have a chance to return to heaven?" β
"This ......"
Zhuge Jin was stunned for a while, and sighed lightly: "Don't think about it too much, the lord will arrive at the meeting first and then see the opportunity to act." β
Although Zhuge Jin's words were comforting him, in fact, the gloomy tone was a euphemistic acquiescence that the general trend had gone.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a sandstorm of dust rising from the west avenue.
Immediately after, the ground began to tremble faintly, a sign that the cavalry was rapidly approaching.
Zhuge Jin was taken aback, and hurriedly climbed to a high ground with meteors, panting and looking far away, only to see that at the end of the avenue, there was indeed a black cavalry formation overwhelming.
After three days and three nights, the enemy finally caught up.
Zhuge Jin's expression changed greatly, and he stumbled down the hill slope and shouted: "Lord, the enemy is chasing, let's retreat quickly." β
Sun Quan had not yet reacted, but the soldiers had already jumped up like an electric shock, and they were ready to flee in a panic.
At this time, Sun Quan, who was sitting in the shade of the tree, remained motionless.
His expression was dull, his eyes were blank, as if half of his three souls and seven spirits had been lost, and the whole person just sat there numbly, ignoring the approaching danger.
"My lord, the enemy's cavalry will arrive soon, and if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave."
Zhuge Jin was so anxious that he almost rolled up his sleeves and personally dragged Sun Quan up from the ground.
After hesitating for a moment, Sun Quan slowly stood up, his sluggish expression faded, and in his place, it seemed to be some kind of determination.
He glanced at these soldiers who still did not give up, looked up to the sky and sighed, waved his hand and said: "The enemy is coming, so let's all disperse and escape." β
Everyone was stunned, and they didn't understand what he meant for a while.
Zhuge Jin was immediately shocked, he knew that Sun Quan was planning to give up resistance and be captured.
Thinking of this section, Zhuge Jin gritted his teeth and choked up: "Lord, before the mountains and rivers are exhausted, you don't have to be like this. β
Sun Quan smiled bitterly: "The general trend has gone, and I don't want to deceive myself anymore and do that senseless struggle." Needless to say, I've made up my mind, you don't have to worry about me anymore, just disperse. β
When it came to this, the soldiers looked at each other, and soon some people were frightened and retreated first.
As soon as someone took the lead, the rest of the hesitant people followed, and the team of hundreds of people dispersed, and in the blink of an eye, there was no one left, only Zhuge Jin was still with him.
Sun Quan saw that Zhuge Jin did not move, so he said: "Ziyu, what are you still doing here, your younger brother is Liu Bei's mastermind, Liu Feng must hate him deeply, you stay here, I am afraid that Liu Feng will be angry with you." β
Zhuge Jin smiled helplessly and sighed: "Liu Feng has half of the country, where else can I hide?" Whether it is life or death, I face it with my lord. β
The people betrayed their relatives and left, and when they were at the end of their rope, there was only one Zhuge Jin left by their side.
At this time, Sun Quan, in addition to being desolate, also got some comfort in his heart.
In this way, his lord and his ministers stood like stone statues under the trees beside the road, quietly watching the torrent of iron horses rushing closer.
#####纡马ε¨ζ±δΈηεε°δΈε₯ι©°, Liu Feng's mood at this time can only be described by the word "cool".
The first time he set foot in Jiangdong was to save his life, and he came to ask Sun Quan in a low voice.
This time, he was galloping recklessly on this vast land as a conqueror.
The war horses used by his cavalry were all good horses from the north captured from Cao Ying. Although this 3,000-strong cavalry is not as elite as the tiger and leopard cavalry, it is unrivaled in the south of the Yangtze River.
The only thing that annoyed him a little was that his eldest brother seemed to have had too much contact with Liu Bei back then, and he was infected by it, and his escape skills were not inferior to that of the famous long-distance runner.
Although Sun Quan has gone to the general trend, the Sun family has been running Jiangdong for many years, and Yu Wei is still there, if he is allowed to flee to the southern counties, it will take some effort to conquer him.
Liu Feng's eyes had turned to the north at this time, and he didn't want to waste too much energy and time on exterminating Sun Quan, a lost dog.
Just as he was thinking about himself, suddenly, his eyes lit up.
Directly in front of the avenue, the two figures caught his eye, and one of them looked quite familiar.
Soon, the image in the field of vision became more and more obvious, and suddenly, Liu Feng accurately recognized the person.
Sun Quan, the man standing on the side of the road, was the guy with blue eyes and purple hair.
The moment he recognized Sun Quan, Liu Feng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he knew that the entire Jiangdong really belonged to him.
Ride up, and it's here in the blink of an eye.
Thousands of galloping cavalry rushed around the two men under the tree, and the flying dust was so choked that Sun Quan had to cover his mouth and nose.
Liu Feng made a move with a silver spear, and his knights quickly reined in the war horses.
The dust fell, and the earth fell silent. Four thousand pairs of hideous eyes, like a cold front, stared coldly at the two people in the encirclement.
A hole opened in the ring formation, and Liu Feng drove his Lu Ma to slowly step forward.
His eldest brother was right in front of him, and this was the second meeting in their lives, but the occasion and each other's mood were very different.
At this time, Liu Feng seemed to be able to feel that there was something called "happiness" flowing in his blood.
At this time, he was indescribably happy.
"Brother Zhongmou, don't come unharmed."
Liu Feng, who was standing high on the horse, faced Sun Quan with a condescending and contemptuous attitude.
Sun Quan's face swelled with a complicated expression, embarrassed, ashamed, indignant, and lost...... All kinds of emotions pierced his heart like a sharp needle.
The corners of his mouth barely squeezed out a sneer, and Sun Quan pretended to be calm and said: "Thanks to your brother-in-law, I still have a breath of air." β
That "brother-in-law" is full of irony.
Liu Feng pretended to be surprised and said, "I almost forgot, I turned out to be Brother Zhongmou's brother-in-law." However, at the beginning, Brother Zhongmou's army slaughtered to Jingzhou with great momentum, and almost forced me to surrender to Cao Ying, at that time, why didn't Brother Zhongmou remember that I was your brother-in-law? β
"You-"
The old thing was brought up again, and Sun Quan was immediately choked speechless, and his whole face was red.
At this time, Zhuge Jin next to him hurriedly said: "General Liu, the matter has come to this, my lord has decided to give up this Jiangdong, why don't General Liu be tolerant and generous, let him go over those things in the past." β
"Who are you?" Liu Feng's gaze shifted to the side.
"Under Zhuge Jin." In response, Zhuge Jin's expression was calm, and his words were not hurried, but he looked like he was in danger.
No wonder he was so calm, it turned out to be Zhuge Liang's brother.
Liu Feng bowed his hand, his expression was a little more polite, and he smiled: "It turned out to be Mr. Ziyu, I have been looking up for a long time." β
Then, he turned his gaze to Sun Quan and said lightly: "Since Mr. Ziyu has spoken, how can I not give him this face." As long as Brother Zhongmou is willing to surrender to me, I can write off the old things. But I don't know if Zhongmou is really willing to surrender to me Liu Feng? β
Liu Feng stared at Sun Quan deadly, just to listen to him say the words of bowing down to him.
Sun Quan is uncomfortable, as the former lord of Jiangdong and the overlord of one side, he doesn't have the words "subservient" in his dictionary at all.
knew that Liu Feng wanted to tear off his last dignity, but he had no choice.
Between life and dignity, he can only choose the same.
After twisting for a long time, Sun Quan could only hang his head and whispered: "I am willing to surrender to General Liu." β
"What? I didn't hear it, please ask for help, can you be louder. Liu Feng tilted his ears and deliberately pretended not to hear.
Sun Quan's face was swollen like blood, so he had to bite and say, "I, Sun Quan, originally intended to surrender to General Liu." β
Liu Feng hadn't played enough, and still said, "Your voice is too small, I still haven't heard it." β
Under such humiliation, Sun Quan was about to go crazy, and at this moment he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
Under the humiliation, Sun Quan didn't care about his image, and said loudly with his voice: "I said, I, Sun Quan, am willing to surrender to you, General Liu." β
This time, the three thousand generals around him could all be heard, and they couldn't help but laugh at Sun Quan's ugliness.
Liu Feng nodded with satisfaction, and raised his head and said, "Okay, I, Liu Feng, accept your surrender." Come on, send Zhongmou off quickly, and send him to Jingzhou overnight. β
