Chapter 39: The Imminent Death of Man

"How so?" Seeing that it was the Xuzhou army that was killed on the other side, Sun Quan and Sun Yi looked at each other. In fact, not only them, but even Zhao Feng and Gao Ran, who were ordered to come to intercept them, were also a little unexpected. Because Sun Yi is killing frantically in order to stabilize the morale of the army these days, many grassroots soldiers dare not speak out. Especially those recruits who have just been recruited, they regard Sun Yi as a murderer. The day before, there was a recruit who wanted to escape and was used by Sun Yi to correct the Fa, and his brother was a military horse, and he happened to be sent to patrol the night that night, and it was also coincidentally in charge of this section of the city wall that was smashed just afternoon. Remembering the hatred of his brother's killing, and feeling that there was no future in holding on, the man gritted his teeth and ordered his men to throw sandbags into the moat, which formed a gentle slope, and then led the crowd out of the city.

When the Xuzhou army found out about their movements and came up to surround them, these people were not afraid, they simply surrendered directly and told the whole story. Liu Bei didn't dare to slack off after hearing the news, and after a hasty discussion with Pang Tong and Lu Su, he hurriedly sent people to kill into the city from this gap. By the time the defenders of the other city walls found out, more than 2,000 people had already entered the city, and the Jiangdong army was really in a big trend.

"Lord, if Sun Quan escapes, he must go south to Jiaozhou, or west to Luling, and he needs to send two people to intercept it as soon as possible!" Pang Tong admonished again. Liu Bei also agreed, and immediately asked Zhao Feng and Gao Ran to block the West Gate, Chen Zhi and Huang Zhong to block the South Gate, and handed over all the cavalry to them, and led the rest of the generals to attack the city.

Zhao Feng and Gao Ran hurried all the way to twenty miles outside the West Gate, and then ordered the whole army to be on guard carefully. As a result, I didn't wait for long, and sure enough, a group of people arrived, and then they appeared to stop each other.

"Huh, Sun Yi?" Under the torch, Zhao Feng was shocked to find that among this group of people, the first one was his old acquaintance Sun Yi. With his mind turning, Zhao Feng looked at another young man beside him who looked somewhat similar to him, although the bright light of the torch flickered a little, Zhao Feng could still see that his beard was purple and his eyes were also green.

"General Gao, we've made a lot of money, that's Sun Quan!" Zhao Feng immediately understood the identity of this young man. Gao Ran was also overjoyed when he heard this, seeing that there were only more than 1,000 people on the other side's way, including chariot soldiers and family members, and he had 2,000 cavalry alone, he shouted at the moment: "Sun Quan has not dismounted and tied up, when will he stay?" ”

"Second brother, I'll drag them down, you go quickly!" Sun Yi gritted his teeth and said, then slapped his horse and danced his spear and stepped forward to kill Zhao Feng. Sun Quan was shocked, looking around with only Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong on the side, and immediately gritted his teeth and hurriedly drove the horse away. It's a pity that although Sun Yi's idea is good, it is wishful thinking. Zhao Feng saw that he was rushing up like a mad tiger, and he didn't fight him hard at the moment, and directly handed it over to Hao Zhao and Feng Xi behind him to catch him, and he and Gao Ran bypassed him and took Sun Quan directly. Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to intercept them, but Zhao Feng was stopped by Pan Zhang, the latter's protector was anxious and knew that his martial arts were not as good as Zhao Feng, and the current moves were all exhausted, but Zhao Feng was helpless for a while. But the gap between Gao Ran and Ma Zhong is too big, and Ma Zhong has been swept off the horse by Gao Ran after three moves. Gao Ran didn't have time to take his surname, and quickly crossed him and drove directly to the fleeing Sun Quan to chase him, although Sun Quan's horse was also a good horse, but his riding skills were really not as good as Gao Ran in the north, plus the Xuzhou war horse was added by Zhao Feng to the horseshoe, and it didn't take long for Gao Ran to catch up.

"Ahh Sun Quan was unarmed, and was captured alive by Gao Ran from his horse in just one moment. The latter raised Sun Quan's hands high above his head, and shouted: "Sun Quan has been captured, and those who surrender will not be killed!" This shout completely shattered the fighting spirit of all the Jiangdong troops present, and the soldiers abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and Pan Zhang and Sun Yi were soon defeated and captured. Together with Sun Quan's family, none of them were able to escape.

"General Gao has made this great achievement, congratulations!" Zhao Feng saw that Gao Lansheng had captured Sun Quan, although he regretted that he couldn't capture him alive with his own hands, but it was good to catch him after all. Gao Ran was also humble when he heard this, and everyone escorted Sun Quan and a group of people back to the meeting.

By the time the fierce fighting in the city had subsided, it would be time for the dust to settle. At this time, Liu Bei and the others figured out why the defenders suddenly went crazy and destroyed the Great Wall, and the feeling was that Sun Yi was angry at the murder. Zhao Feng is not surprised, Sun Yi was such a violent person in history, and later asked his subordinates to kill him, and now it is not surprising that he behaves like this.

The inventory found that the Xuzhou army fought fiercely all night, with no more than 5,000 casualties. More than 8,000 defenders were killed, and the rest were captured or surrendered, and the battle went far better than the Battle of Wujun. After all, the combat effectiveness of the Jiangdong Army is now significantly lower than that of Wu Jun during the Great War. Since Sun Quan and below, all the officials and family members of the Sun Group have been arrested, and none of them have escaped the net. And Cheng Pu and other die-hard factions had to stop resisting after learning that Sun Quan was captured, and had no choice but to surrender.

"Lord, do you know where Zhou Yu is?" Zhao Feng asked a little eagerly, in his opinion, the value of these people was not as valuable as a Zhou Yu. Liu Bei obviously forgot about this stubble, and when he heard Zhao Feng's reminder, he hurriedly found someone to ask, and after many inquiries, he learned that Zhou Yu had been on death row by Sun Quan for more than a month.

"Get out of here!" Liu Bei hurriedly said. However, when Zhou Yu was brought to Liu Bei and Zhao Feng, almost everyone didn't recognize him. Once upon a time, Zhou Yu was so heroic and confident. Although his skin was so fair that he looked a little girly, this did not hinder his elegance in the slightest, and he could not be associated with the sick man in front of him who was tortured and dying, with a skinny head and a disgusting smell on his body. "Hurry up and ask a famous doctor for treatment!" Liu Bei almost roared and ordered.

After a short time, several doctors were invited one after another, and after several diagnoses and treatments, the conclusions were all the same: Zhou Yu was already suffering from lung disease, and was imprisoned on dark and damp death row for more than a month, plus torture, and now he has run out of oil and lamps, and only has a few days to die at most. Liu Bei and the others were all taken aback when they heard this, "Sun Zhongmou, you are too ruthless!" Liu Bei hated and said. Although the people in Xuzhou did not have much friendship except for Lu Su and Zhou Yu, they all felt sad when they saw him being tortured so badly by Sun Quan. Zhao Feng felt even more uncomfortable, this discord plan was designed by him and Pang Tong at the beginning, originally he only thought that Sun Quan would lock up Zhou Yu, but he didn't expect him to directly want Zhou Yu's life. I wanted to persuade him to join the Xuzhou Group, but now it seems that there is no hope.

In the afternoon, I heard a report from the maid who was ordered to take care of Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu was now awake, and asked to see Lu Su and Zhao Feng. Liu Bei was also a little stunned when he heard this, but he quickly agreed. At that moment, Lu Su and Zhao Feng came to the room where Zhou Yu was placed, Lu Su went in first and talked for a while, and Zhao Feng waited outside. After about a cup of tea, Lu Su came out, with tears on his face, and at the same time motioned for Zhao Feng to go in.

"Gong Jin!" Zhao Feng was a little hesitant, but he still called Zhou Yu that. The latter was lying on the bed, although his body no longer emitted stench after bathing, but the abnormal flushing on his face, as well as his eyes that did not have much radiance, all showed that his life was coming to an end.

Seeing Zhao Feng, Zhou Yu reluctantly smiled. "What a divisive plan, Zhao Botao, I am completely planted in your hands this time." Zhou Yu said breathlessly, and when he said these few words, he was coughing.

"Gongjin, Hugh wants to say that." Zhao Feng said hurriedly, but saw Zhou Yu waving his hand slightly to signal him to stop, and said with some emotion: "I, Zhou Yu, am already hanging by a thread, why can't Your Excellency say a few words to me?" ”

"Alas!" Zhao Feng also sighed when he heard this, and then said abruptly: "Gong Jin, I never expected things to come to such a point. Although I have the intention to harm you, I have no intention of killing you! ”

"Hehe, Bo Tao's words may not be false. I think that even if Brother Bofu has a spirit in the sky, I am afraid that I would never have imagined that his brother would be so cruel to me, let alone Your Excellency? Zhou Yu smiled faintly, but his eyes were looking at the roof, as if he was looking for Sun Ce.

"That's right, it's not you who loses, it's Sun Quan!" Zhao Feng also set the tone for this battle in Jiangdong. Zhou Yu was not surprised when he heard this, and took a few breaths before continuing: "Let me ask you, if you had to design me, would you still be so polite to my wife?" After speaking, Zhou Yu actually looked at Zhao Feng with slanted eyes, as if he wanted to see something from his eyes.

"I admit it's despicable to use your wife to calculate you, but it's the best plan I can think of." Zhao Feng bowed his head a little helplessly. Glancing up at Zhou Yu, Zhao Feng mustered up the courage to continue: "I, Zhao Feng, am not a decent man and gentleman, but I can't coerce you with your wife in public and private. ”

"It's serious, how can there be a righteous man and a gentleman on the battlefield?" Zhou Yu seemed to be very open-minded, and then sighed: "When Shouchun City is down, Bo Tao invited me to Xuzhou. To be honest, I wasn't completely unmoved, but I was deeply moved by Bo Fu's knowledge and didn't want to stay away. Moreover, Bo Fu is also a British master, and we will do our best to assist him, so he may not be able to win the world, so why should he set up another court? I never expected that in less than three years, both of us would die at the hands of Botao, it was really providential!. Speaking of this, Zhou Yu coughed violently again, and Zhao Feng hurriedly stepped forward to help him pat his back and let him catch his breath.

"Gong Jin, I don't want to say anything. Do you have any unfulfilled wishes? I'll help you do it, even if you kill Sun Quan! Zhao Feng saw that Zhou Yu's eyes were a little broken, and his heart was cold, and he hurriedly asked.

"No need! I, Zhou Yu, originally wanted to assist Brother Bo Fu to achieve a hegemony, but I didn't want him to go before me. I thought that even if he couldn't achieve hegemony, he would have to keep Jiangdong, the foundation we laid with our own hands, but who expected to meet Bo Tao, only to know that there were people outside the world. Liu Bei is so lucky, if there is no Your Excellency, how can he have today's achievements? Zhou Yu panted.

"If there is no Gongjin, why would Sun Bofu sit in Jiangdong?" Zhao Feng just asked rhetorically, Zhou Yu glanced at Zhao Feng when he heard this, and suddenly smiled: "It seems that no one has ever appreciated me like Your Excellency?" ”

"Heroes cherish heroes!" Zhao Feng sighed. Zhou Yu seemed to be relieved when he heard this, but he just gasped and stopped talking. Suddenly, Zhou Yu's breath suddenly became rapid, Zhao Feng was shocked, but seeing that his right hand, which had been weak, he didn't know where the strength came from, so he held Zhao Feng's right arm tightly, raised his head and said intermittently: "Sue, tell my wife, I want her to be small, be careful!" Without finishing a word, he suddenly lost his strength and lay back on the bed with a "bang", and then stopped moving.

"Gong Jin!" Lu Su, who had been waiting outside the door, also rushed in when he heard the sound, but Zhou Yu couldn't answer him anymore. Zhao Feng looked at the grief-stricken Lu Su and Zhou Yu, who was already motionless, and was silent for a long time, but only let out a long sigh.
