Chapter 1682: Defection Before Defeat

The actions of Jiang Dongbing on the same boat surprised Huang Gai.

He didn't think about Lu Xun's plan to serve the imperial court, standing on the small boat that entered the water, looking up at Lu Xun on the boat, Huang Gai was stunned.

"Old General Huang!" On the boat, Lu Xun arched his fist at Huang Gai and said: "Our naval army is superior to the imperial army, but it has been defeated repeatedly, which shows that Wu Hou did not comply with the will of heaven. Now that the image of defeat has appeared, why doesn't the old general join the court with a certain one? ”

At the same time as Lu Xun shouted, a snow-white flag was raised from the sound of the boat.

The white flag means that the Jiangdong naval army surrendered to the Han army.

The resisting Jiangdong Navy soon saw the flag raised by Lu Xun's warship and stopped resisting.

The Jiangdong Army did not fight back again, and the Han Navy soon stopped attacking.

Some Han soldiers approached the warships of the Jiangdong Army, jumped on the enemy ships, and took down the Jiangdong Army's swords on the ships, and the water battles that lasted for several days gradually came to an end.

Looking up at Lu Xun, Huang Gai's face was blue and red for a while.

He gritted his teeth and said to Lu Xun hatefully: "Lu Xun, Wu Hou treats you well, we should share our worries for Wu Hou, but you turned against you before the battle, what is the reason?" ”

Huang Gai's questioning made Lu Xun feel a little guilty.

At a young age, he became the governor of Jiangdong, relying on Sun Quan to promote him exceptionally.

Now that the general trend has gone, even if he does not surrender to the Han army and leads the Jiangdong naval army to fight, Jianye will be broken by the Han army sooner or later.

Sooner or later, it is better to serve the court earlier, although it may not be possible to be an official and enter the knighthood, at least he can save his life.

Holding on to the side of the boat and looking at the yellow cover on the small boat, Lu Xun still felt a little guilty in his heart.

With a faint sigh, he said to Huang Gai: "Old general, we are Han ministers, even if Wu Hou is also a Han minister. Now that His Majesty is crusading against Marquis Wu, we will fight the court to the end, even if we win by luck, we are just rebellious ministers and thieves......"

"Shut up!" Lu Xun was about to persuade Huang Gai, but Huang Gai shouted at him, with a cold face, because of excitement, the muscles on his face were trembling and said: "Cannibal Lu, but he does the thing of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle." If you meet Wu Hou in the future, how should you deal with it? ”

"The old general doesn't have to be like this!" was scolded by Huang Gai because his cheeks were flushed, but Lu Xun still persuaded him: "We will serve the imperial court, and in the future, Your Majesty will break through Jianye, or you may be able to say a few words for Wu Hou......"

"Isn't the Metropolitan Governor stupid?" In the past, when Huang Gai called Lu Xun the governor of the capital, his tone was respectful, but this time he was full of ridicule, and said coldly: "I have been fighting with the court for many days, and now our army is surrounded, and I saw that the general trend has gone, so I surrendered to the court, do you think Your Majesty will be reused?" ”

was stunned for a moment when questioned by Huang Gai, and Lu Xun was also muttering in his heart.

If he had served the imperial court earlier, Liu Wei might have really reused it because he had alleviated the resistance for the imperial army's southward movement.

Now that the defeat has appeared, and he surrenders to the imperial court again, at most it can only be regarded as surrender and being reused, which is not even a thought about at all.

His mind was really churning, and Lu Xun felt the hull of the ship shake violently, and the two Han Junlou ships leaned against the hull of his ship almost at the same time.

The hulls of the boats touched, and some people jumped off the Han Junlou boat.

The first two people, Lu Xun is very familiar these days.

One of the white-robed and silver-armored Han army generals was none other than Zhao Yun, who had stayed in Zhou Yu's camp for many days, while the other one who was holding a Fang Tian painting halberd and was as burly as a hill was the fierce general Lu Bu.

These two people got on the boat, and Lu Xun knew that even if he wanted to regret it, it would be too late.

The Jiangdong Army of the whole ship could not be the opponent of the two of them, let alone a group of Han soldiers following them.

"The Metropolitan Governor understands righteousness, and we admire it!" In front of Lu Xun, Zhao Yun arched at him with his fists and said to him: "Your Majesty has landed on the shore, please go with the Governor and meet Your Majesty!" ”

Zhao Yun invited him to meet Liu Wei, and Lu Xun answered and said to him and Lu Bu: "It's just that the old general Huang Gai is still unwilling to serve the imperial court." ”

Glancing at the small boat under the boat, Zhao Yun happened to see Huang Gai draw his long sword.

With a bad thought in his heart, he snatched the strong crossbow from behind the soldiers on the side, set up an arrow on the strong crossbow, and aimed at Huang Gai.

Drawing out his long sword, Huang Gai raised his face and laughed a few times, and shouted to Lu Xun on the boat: "The Metropolitan Governor has served the imperial court, and the last general wishes to fly Huang Tengda in the future." It's a pity that the last general is a veteran of Jiangdong, who used to follow Wentai, and now Jiangdong is going to be thrown away from the hands of the last general and others, if he surrenders, he will have no face to see the old master after death. The last will be the first step! ”

The words shouted by Huang Gai were not only pathetic, but also revealed his contempt for Lu Xun.

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his long sword and was about to kill himself.

As soon as the long sword was put on his neck, Zhao Yun's fingers moved slightly, and he picked off the spring of the strong crossbow.

The crossbow bolts flew like lightning towards Huang Gai, and he happened to be on the sword.

The strong force, even if it was Huang Gai, he couldn't resist it, and with a crisp sound of "dang", his palm was numb, and the long sword flew out of his hand.

"Capture Huang Gai!" Shooting away the long sword in Huang Gai's hand, Zhao Yun raised his hand and pointed at him, giving an order to the Han army Xiaoge who had already arrived nearby.

Several small boats approached Huang Gai, but the Han soldiers did not step forward to capture Huang Gai.

The leaky boat has mostly sunk into the water, and if you wait a little longer, the yellow cover will have nowhere to rely on.

The Han army that approached the small boat and surrounded Huang Gai in the middle.

The small boat under Huang Gai's feet is already only the side of the boat still exposed on the water.

Standing on the small boat, he could already feel some fluttering under his feet, and the river water hit his calves, making him a little unsteady.

Huang Gai wanted to take the opportunity to snatch a small boat when the Han army approached, but the approaching Han army did not immediately attack him, but aimed at him with a strong crossbow.

was targeted by a strong crossbow arrow, Huang Gai was really a little scared.

Drawing a sword to commit suicide is one concept, being shot into a hedgehog by an arrow is another concept!

No one is pointed at by a strong crossbow, and there will be no tension in the heart.

The boat sank little by little, and finally, the boat gang also sank completely into the water.

When the boat sank into the water, the boat completely lost its buoyancy and quickly sank to the bottom of the river.

Without the yellow cover of the foundation, his feet were empty, and he suddenly fell into the water.

Although Huang Gai also knows some water, he is not like those Jiangdong troops who specialize in water tasks, but they can come and go as freely as if the Yangtze River was on land.

Falling into the water, he slapped the water with both hands, although I didn't sink, but I couldn't do anything to kill the Han army.

Huang Gai fell into the water, and on the small boat of the Han army, the soldiers of the Han army took out the big net one after another and threw it at him.

Under the hood of the big net, Huang Gai wanted to hide, but he was in the water and had nowhere to hide.

Huang Gai struggled desperately, trying to break free from it, but the more he tore the net, the tighter the net covered him.

The Han army on several small boats shouted almost at the same time, and everyone worked together to pull Huang Gailian with a net, rowed the small boats, and docked the building boat that Zhao Yun and Lu Bu boarded.

When he arrived at the ship, Zhao Yun waved his hand to the soldiers on the ship.

The Han army on the small boat threw the rope of the big net towards the building boat.

The Han soldiers on the ship hurriedly took it, and a group of soldiers pulled the rope and dragged the yellow cover onto the deck.

Seeing Huang Gai being fished out of the water like a big fish, Lu Xun didn't feel good in his heart.

However, the general trend has gone, even if he regrets it, it is too late, the Jiangdong naval army surrendered to the Han army, and the battle on the river has been completely terminated.

Dragged onto the deck by the Han army, Huang Gai spit out several mouthfuls of water in a row, but he did not give in, and after spitting a few mouthfuls of water, he raised his head and glared at Lu Xun and the others.

Making eye contact with Huang Gai, Lu Bu frowned, and said to the Han army beside him: "Take this person into custody and hand it over to Your Majesty!" ”

Several Han soldiers answered, stepped forward, untied the big net that bound Huang Gai, pressed him to the ground, and tied him up with hooves.

On the river, the battle of the naval army is over.

Zhou Yu Water Village on the south bank of the Yangtze River, but there are constantly ferries coming and going.

Every time the ferry boat entered the water village, many Han soldiers would be left behind, and then return to the north bank to take the Han army on the shore across the river.

Many of the soldiers of the Han army are from the Central Plains, and it is not that they do not know how to swim, but the Han army who can swim is much worse than the Jiangdong army that grew up on the bank of the Yangtze River since childhood.

What's more, many of the Han soldiers who couldn't swim were panicked by the waves when they crossed the Yangtze River, and many of them looked for a place to vomit after crossing the river.

On the river, groups of Han troops have landed.

The Zhou Yu military camp of Nuoda was also very crowded after the Han army crossed the Yangtze River.

Many Han soldiers were not assigned to barracks, so they had to set up tents in the barracks and move in temporarily.

Liu Wei refused Xiao Qiao's request to see him.

It's not that he doesn't know that Xiao Qiao has a pretty face that captivates the city and the country, but Xiao Qiao is Zhou Yu's wife, as the emperor, it is a little difficult to meet the wife of his subordinates!

It was Zhou Yu who proposed that Xiao Qiao come to meet Liu Bian, and when Liu Bian refused, he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

But after thinking about it, Liu Wei did this to follow the ethics of an emperor.

Zhou Yu also immediately understood why Liu Wei, who fled Luoyang with Tang Ji and had almost nothing, was able to restore the Han family without attaching himself to any heroic heroes and relying on his own ability!

Standing by the river, Liu Wei held his hands and looked at the soldiers of the Han army who were landing on the shore, and a smug smile appeared on his face.

The Yangtze River is the only obstacle in front of the Han army, and now that the army has crossed the river, the Jiangdong Sun clan should not be able to support it for too long!
