Chapter 445: Persecution
readx;
Why did Huang Zhong faint, the reason is very simple, a man in his seventies was slashed on the shoulder, and he didn't even have a careful bandage, so he chased all the way to have signs of fainting, which is already a miracle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
At this moment, Huang Zhong was actually seriously injured because of blood loss, but he knew that he must not fall, if he fell here, the five thousand strange soldiers might fall apart, and the miraculous deeds he had made at the risk of his life would also be in vain, and what was the use of Sun Quan in his hands?
Seeing that the Lord was about to fall, Huang Zhong pushed away the hands of the soldiers with all his strength, and held it down with his teeth, and froze in place for a long time, and it was easy to take a breath of relief, and then he exhaled lightly: "The old man is fine, guard Sun Quan strictly." Orders were issued to all armies to close the gates as soon as possible and complete the overall control of Jianye. ”
At this time, Huang Zhong, the slight shock caused by every word he said, as if he could pull to the wound on his shoulder, was so painful that his heart and liver were broken. But he could only endure it silently, and did not dare to show it in front of the soldiers, for fear of affecting the morale of the army.
After deploying everything, it was not until it was dark that Huang Zhong had the opportunity to find a palace room of Sun Quan to recuperate, and when there was no one left and right, he collapsed on the collapse as if he had collapsed.
After a short time, he was secretly sent into the army, and when he saw Huang Zhong's terrifying appearance, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
Huang Zhong struggled to sit up from the couch, and said with a forced smile: "The old man has a slight injury, you can help me take a look." ”
Lang Zhong hurriedly stepped forward with the medicine box and helped Huang Zhong take off his armor, when he saw that half of his body was stained with blood and sticky, he was already a little uneasy in his heart. When he gently tore the clothes around the wound, he couldn't help but gasp.
"Old general, when did you get injured, why did you only summon the little one now?" Lang Zhong's face was full of confusion.
"At that time, the situation was urgent, and it was too late to pass you on, so you don't have to ask more, just take care of it." Huang Zhong didn't want to say too much.
Lang Zhong didn't dare to ask more, carefully treated the wound, and said while healing: "Old general, you have suffered this knife wound very seriously, hurting your muscles and bones, and you have to recuperate for a year and a half before you recover." ”
Huang Zhong smiled bitterly: "Are you joking, my five thousand dead soldiers went deep into the national capital alone, under this situation, do you think I have time to recuperate?" ”
Lang Zhong was stunned for a moment and sighed: "However, if you don't calm down and recuperate carefully, with the old general's current injury, I am afraid that if you are not careful, you may endanger the old general's life." ”
Huang Zhong took a deep breath and said resolutely: "You just need to use medicine with me, I have my own way to survive, as long as I can survive until the surrender of Wu State, I will have no worries." ”
This Lang Zhong has followed Huang Zhong for many years, and he is also familiar with the temper of the old general of his family, although he is extremely worried about his injury, he can only sigh helplessly in his heart.
The process of healing the wound is the process of torture, Lang Zhong was busy for an hour before treating Huang Zhong's wound, and after taking the medicine, the seventy-year-old veteran could only lie there and barely sleep.
The next day, when the sky was still bright, Huang Zhong woke up by himself, endured the pain on his shoulders, and went out again to inspect all the key points of Jianye.
After a whole day of fierce fighting yesterday, the 5,000 Han army has basically controlled all the gates of Jianye, and the remaining more than 1,000 Wu troops have either been wiped out or scattered and fled, and many ministers and royal relatives in the city have also fled out of the city, but most of the magnates have become prisoners of the Han army.
After ensuring the completion of control of Jianye City, Huang Zhong rushed to see Sun Quan non-stop.
The monarch of Wu Guoguo, who was once invincible and had infinite scenery, was gray at this moment, like a lost dog, and his mental state was worse than that of Huang Zhong, who was seriously injured, and he couldn't sleep for a whole night after being locked up.
When the gate opened and Huang Zhong and more than a dozen heavily armed armor soldiers rushed in, the depressed Sun Quan couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
Huang Zhong looked at Sun Quan coldly, Ling Lie's gaze stared at him for a full ten seconds, and then with a gesture of his hand, the soldiers behind him brought up the pen, ink, silk book, and the emperor's seal and placed it in front of Sun Quan.
"Sun Zhongmou, the general trend has gone, in order to prevent the living beings from suffering again, you will write an edict ordering the Wu troops everywhere to stop resisting and surrender to our Han Kingdom on the spot."
Huang Zhong's tone was quite polite, but Sun Quan's face was even more desperate because of it, he froze there, motionless and did not react.
Huang Zhong didn't talk nonsense with him, and after a while, more than a dozen women, children, old and young, were dragged into the palace, some of those people were Sun Quan's harem concubines, and some were princesses and princes, all of whom were members of the Sun royal family.
Sun Quan's face was shocked, and he didn't know whether he was worried about his family or ashamed to face them.
Huang Zhong pointed to the crying women and children and said: "So far, if you still have childish thoughts, then don't blame me for being ruthless." If you obey and obey orders, I, Huang Zhong, can swear by my honor to protect the personal safety of your Sun family. But if you continue to disobey, I will kill one of your family members every quarter of an hour. Whether these people live or die depends on your choice. ”
At this moment, Sun Quan's heart is suffering from unprecedented torment, although he has become a prisoner of the ranks, but as the king of a country, the last dignity still exists, and he is unwilling to use that piece of paper to tear his last dignity.
But on the other hand, he knew that the general trend was gone, even if he didn't obey his fate, the destruction of the Wu Kingdom would be irreversible, and his own flesh and blood family would be killed because of this, and he couldn't bear it.
In this fierce ideological struggle, a quarter of an hour passed in a flash, and Huang Zhong's face became more and more ugly.
Sun Quan's silence annoyed the veteran who was suffering from the pain, and he pointed to a child and shouted, "Drag this kid out and behead him." ”
The soldiers responded and dragged Sun Quan's prince Sun He out, and the young prince was so frightened that he forgot to cry at the moment, and the whole person was trembling like dementia and was dragged out of the hall by the Han army.
'Killing women and children who are powerless is not what I Huang Zhong did, but the current situation is special, and it can only be so. ’
Huang Zhong was secretly sighing in his heart, and Sun Quan, who had been silent, finally couldn't bear it anymore when he saw his beloved son going to Huangquan, and shouted urgently: "Let go of my son, I can just write this edict." ”
Huang Zhong was secretly relieved, thinking that he finally didn't have to bear the infamy of slaughtering women and children.
Sun Quan agreed, even if it took half a day of hard work, more than ten handwritten edicts were sent to the front line of Runan, Jingzhou and Qingxu, for the generals who held military power on the front line, only Sun Quan's handwritten edict completely convinced them.
In addition, there were many edicts, only covered with jade seals, sent to the states and counties in the rear of the Wu State, and the edicts ordered the local officials to change their flags and banners, and return to the Han Kingdom on the spot.
Jianye's shock, before Sun Quan's edict to the front line, Lu Shu, Cao Zhen, Lu Meng and other generals heard the news, all of them were shocked, however, these resourceful people quickly figured out how the Han army "fell from the sky", so the commanders quickly drew up a plan, ready to transfer a part of the soldiers and horses back to King Jingqin.
Qingzhou, Zhu Xucheng.
At this moment, the news of the fall of Jianye was only known to Cao Zhen and a few other high-level officials, and the low-level soldiers did not know that their national capital had fallen.
In such an era, the capital of the empire is a sacred symbol of a country, and the fall of the capital often means the demise of a country.
In the past history, the Jin State captured Bianliang, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, although most of the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty was still under control, but the fall of the national capital directly led to the demise of the Northern Song Dynasty.
In the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Dijing, the king of Yan, was difficult to raise troops, and originally only occupied a corner of Yanyun's land, but he rode all the way south to break through Nanjing, and the defenders and officials from all over the country immediately directed to Zhu Di.
Cao Zhen knew very well that if the news spread, the 70,000 soldiers on his front line were likely to collapse in an instant, so he tried his best to suppress the spread of the news, and at the same time mobilized 10,000 soldiers from his henchmen to prepare to be led by Xu Gai and go south to Jianye Qinwang.
"I really didn't expect that Fang Shao's guy would use the strategy of attacking Jianye in the floating sea, and I still lost a move after all." At this time, Cao Zhen, although the other party hated him like bone marrow, he also had to admit that he was inferior to his opponent in terms of wisdom.
At this time, Cao Zhen suddenly understood that every move he took, whether it was a big victory in Yancheng or a transfer of troops to attack Qingzhou, everything was in Fang Shao's calculations, and the reason why people let you eat such a big sweetness in Qingzhou was nothing more than to prepare for a surprise attack on Jianye.
"One move of chess, can lay down ten ways of foreshadowing, is it the work of human intelligence, whether this person is a human or a ghost!" Cao Zhen sighed again.
Xu Gai saw that Cao Zhen was a little depressed, so he was relieved: "That Fang Shao doesn't have three heads and six arms, the reason why he was able to successfully attack Jianye in the sea is nothing more than good luck, the general don't care." Now that all the soldiers and horses are returning to Shiqin Wang, what if Huang Zhong Lao'er and the thousands of lonely soldiers occupy Jianye, it is not a dead end in the end, and the overall situation is still in the hands of the general. ”
Cao Zhen sighed lightly: "I hope so, I'm just worried about Your Majesty's safety now, as long as Your Majesty is fine, everything is still salvageable, if ......"
Before the words fell, the soldiers outside spread that the edict of Emperor Jianye had arrived.
Cao Zhen was stunned, the two glanced at each other, and hurriedly went out to greet the order.
When the envoy who came in a hurry read out the emperor's edict ordering him to surrender to the Han State on the spot, Cao Zhen only felt that a volcano erupted in his chest in an instant, and the rolling rock flow burned all his internal organs in an instant.
At this moment, Cao Zhen's mind was blank, and the feeling that life was worse than death occupied his body and mind, and after a while, he raised his head to the sky and screamed, vomiting blood in his mouth, and then fainted to the ground.
