The fifth year of Jian'an, May 2.

The five Chaisang families who helped the Jiangdong army defend the city were publicly executed by Gan Ning outside the city of Chaisang, and hundreds of heads fell to the ground at the same time, and the blood and water gathered into a river, staining the surface of the ground under their feet into red soil.

When this news spread, it once again shocked the entire Han Dynasty, especially the Jiangdong family, and they all fell into endless panic.

They began to analyze and weigh the pros and cons in their hearts, did they want to continue to help Sun Quan resist Jinfan? Or do you not help each other? Or simply turn to Jinfan and help them pacify Jiangdong?

If the former is chosen, once Sun Quan can't fight Jinfan with their help, then their family will definitely face annihilation; And if they choose the latter, although they will still be banned by Jinfan from the family's private soldiers, they will also gain greater benefits from the premise that many families are destroyed.

This is the era of the family is used to being strong, even if it is a local official, they have to give them three points, but this does not mean that they can be indifferent in the face of death, in fact, on the contrary, the more big the family, the more dare not take risks, no matter what, it is better to die than to live, not to mention that in addition to not having a family private soldier, Jinfan's requirements for the family in other aspects are actually not harsh.

As the so-called benevolent see the benevolent, the wise see the wise, each has their own different views, maybe the family can not bear the strength of Jinfan, but not necessarily all the families can afford to have the courage to burn with Jinfan jade, and this is the real intention of Jinfan to publicly execute these Chaisang families, kill chickens and monkeys, knock on the mountain and shock the tiger, as long as there can be a part of the Jiangdong family out of fear and choose to retreat, their road to the south of Jiangdong will be relatively smooth.

Sun Quan sent troops, and Wang Chong, whose eyeliner was all over Jiangdong, got the news as soon as possible.

Jian'an May, May 3.

Wang Chong took Liu Ye as his military advisor, Tai Shici, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Hao Zhao, and Wang Shuang as generals, and personally led an army of 30,000 to arrive at Wankou Port.

At the same time, Cheng Pu also led 3,000 elites to Hulin and confronted Wang Chong across the river.

On the fourth day, Gan Ning left 5,000 soldiers to guard Chaisang, and he led 10,000 soldiers to attack Liling.

Gan Ning took advantage of the victory to pursue, and within one day, he broke through Liling and Haidu, and Sun Ben only led hundreds of remnants of soldiers to flee back to Nanchang in embarrassment.

When Luling Taishou Sun Wei happened to lead 3,000 troops to help, Gan Ning's soldiers surrounded Nanchang, seeing that the city was strong, he was impatient, so he had to temporarily retreat back to Haidu.

On the 5th, Han Dang's army finally arrived at Pengze to join Wu Jing, and Han Dang, whose troops and horses had expanded to 25,000 men, immediately launched a strong attack on Hukou, only to be repelled by Le Jin in three consecutive rounds of attacks.

On the 6th, Gan Ning ordered Xu Sheng to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard Haidu, and transferred 2,000 soldiers from Chaisang, and led a full 8,000 troops to the Hukou camp to support Lejin.

At the same time, Jiangxia Huang Zu also took advantage of the fire at this time to rob, commanding 10,000 sailors to surround Exian County, which was broken by the Jiangdong Army last year, because Zhou Yu took away most of the army when he returned to Wu County, and now there are only 3,000 Jiangdong soldiers stationed in Exian County, which was immediately crumbling under Huang Zu's offensive, and the area around Chaisang has been captured by Jinfan, Exian County is actually a lone army, according to the current situation, it is only a matter of time before Huang Zu is recaptured.

With the repeated conflicts between Jinfan and Jiangdong, the war in Yuzhang County intensified, and the two sides fought in the Hukou camp for several days, each suffering countless injuries, but at this time, Wang Chong of Wankou Port seemed very calm and had no intention of sending troops for a long time.

"This matter is too unusual, what kind of conspiracy is this Wang Chong playing?"

Hulin, Cheng Pu frowned and muttered to himself, Wang Chong's immobility always made him difficult to let go, but he couldn't guess Wang Chong's intentions at all, and he couldn't do anything at all, which also made his mood more and more anxious.

Seeing this, the deputy general Pan Zhang on the side persuaded: "General, now our task is only to keep an eye on Wang Chong in Wankou Port, as for the rest, we are thinking too much, and it is nothing more than adding trouble." ”

"Having said that, I still feel at ease!" Cheng Pu sighed, "That's it, Wen Jue, send someone to inform the Niu Zhu guards, so that they can strictly prevent Jinfan's sneak attack, after all, Jinfan has a lot of soldiers and horses stationed in Weixukou and Liyang, in case Niu Zhu is breached, Wu County will be in danger!" ”

Pan Zhang said: "The general is reasonable, and the last general will send someone over!" ”

With that, he got up and left the tent.

And just when Cheng Pu was full of exhaustion, Wang Chong from Wankou Port was talking and laughing with Liu Ye: "Ziyang, you said that our army has not sent troops for a long time, will you be worried about Cheng Pu's hair?" ”

Liu Ye said with a smile: "Lord, Cheng Pu is sixty and three this year, and his hair has already turned white!" ”

"Then I hope he won't lose his hair in fear!" Wang Chong shrugged his shoulders and asked Liu Ye, "Have you contacted that kid?" ”

Liu Ye nodded and said: "In the next few days, he will find an excuse to break away from the army, and then secretly go to Niuzhu, and open the gate of the water village to let my Jinfan army enter!" ”

"Bo Dao is almost in Liyang, right?"

"Calculate the time, it's time for today!"

"That's good, when my Jinfan breaks through Niu Zhu, I want to see how Sun Quan can deal with it!"

In a sense, Cheng Pu's judgment was not wrong, Wang Chong's real target was indeed Niu Zhu, but Wang Chong's plan, relying on strict defense alone was absolutely useless, because the problem came from within their Jiangdong, and this rebellious person was something Cheng Pu could not have predicted anyway.

Sun Yi!

That's right, the person who chose to betray Jiangdong was none other than Sun Yi, the third member of the Sun family.

As early as a few days before Gan Ning sent troops, Wang Chong sent someone to secretly contact Sun Yi with a smile and a knife, first blowing to him Hu Kuhai, thinking that he was the most suitable person to inherit Jiangdong, and successfully led to his deep dissatisfaction with Sun Quan, and then cut to the point, hoping that he could help Jinfan take Jiangdong, and promised that once the matter was completed, he would be officially awarded the successor of Wu Hou and he would continue to rule Jiangdong.

After listening to the conditions, the seventeen-year-old boy who was unwilling to be mediocre suddenly felt excited, and it didn't take long for him to grit his teeth and agree to be Jinfan's internal response, the only requirement was to hope that Wang Chong would not hurt his family afterwards, this kind of empty check that did not need to pay any price at all, Jinfan's lobbyist didn't even need to come back to consult Wang Chong, so he patted his chest and agreed.

At the beginning, when Jia Xu offered this plan to himself, Wang Chong thought that its practical operability was not high, after all, Sun Yi was also Sun Quan's own brother, how could he easily betray it? But later, he tried it with a knife hidden in his smile, and the success rate was 60%, plus 20% of the skill layers, and the success rate that could finally persuade Sun Yi was as high as 80%, Wang Chong was stunned at the time.

Facts have proved that in terms of figuring out people's minds, Jia Xu, the old fox, is indeed much better than himself. (To be continued.) )
