The good night was lonely, Gu Yong, the patriarch of the Gu family who was confined in the Dongwu Palace, did not sleep, he picked up a yellowed letter from the book under the lamp, it was Sun Quan's correspondence with him over the years.

There are many deeds of "not being able to see people" in it...

There was a certain kind of youthful grief in his aging and cloudy eyes, once upon a time, how much Sun Quan relied on the major clans, and what a beautiful situation these patriarchs of these great clans were, saying that they were in the land of Eastern Wu... It is not an exaggeration to determine life and death in the snap of a finger.

But now, they are confined here, like canaries in a cage, able to see the sky, but can no longer break free from the cage.

"Alas... Alas—"

Gu Yong couldn't help but let out another faint sigh.

At this moment, the window was knocked on, Gu Yong was startled, walked to the window and asked in a low voice, "Who?" ”

"Hongyan sent me to deliver a letter to the patriarchs—"

Swan goose?

This name, Gu Yong is not unfamiliar, the same, he knows... This name can be described as taboo in Eastern Wu, and it was an organization formed by the die-hard loyalists of Sun Ce and Tai Shici, with the aim of subverting Sun Quan's rule.

If it was in normal times, when he heard about "Hong Yan", Gu Yong would definitely shout loudly and find someone to arrest him, so as to avoid being implicated with it and make Sun Quan suspicious.

But now, the situation dictates... Gu Yong didn't make a sound, just walked quickly to the window and opened the window a little.

A paper ball was thrown in, and he picked it up and looked at it, and his expression changed drastically...

At this time, Zhang Wen, the patriarch of the Zhang family, Yu Qiu, the patriarch of the Yu family, and Kong Shen, the patriarch of the Kong family, also lay on the bed and tossed and turned, because of the grief in their hearts caused by the confinement, the coughing sound became more severe, and they couldn't sleep one by one.

Gu Yong suddenly broke into their room and said, "Wake up, just now the man in black has entered this palace and given me a letter, let's go to the main hall to talk——"

Zhang Wen, Yu Qiu, and Kong Shen were shocked, and hurriedly turned over and rushed to the main hall.

"What letter?"

Gu Yong's face was pale, as if he was facing a great enemy, and gave the small paper ball in his hand to everyone, and everyone opened it while coughing.

The moment they saw the content, they were like wooden carvings, showing an expression of disbelief, and even coughing stopped.

Then, a wave of excitement appeared on their faces...

Even the aging body couldn't help but straighten up.

Gu Yong was the first to shout: "Even if Sun Quan is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust... If you do it, you are conspiring with the tiger, and this time you did it-"

On this night, the patriarchs of the other major clans who were imprisoned also had their own thoughts.

Facing the paper ball that was suddenly thrown into the room, Zhang Wen, the patriarch of the Zhang family, was lying calmly in the room, but after seeing the paper ball, he put his sword and armor on the side of the bed, while Xie Feng, the patriarch of the Xie family, was pacing in the room where he was imprisoned.

In the end, Zhang Wen and Xie Feng could no longer contain the panic in their hearts, and quickly walked towards the main hall.

There were servants passing by in the palace, they inadvertently turned their heads, and found a black shadow under the window of the main hall of the palace, these servants quietly poked forward two steps with bated breath, only to see that under the black shadow was a disheveled patriarch of the big clan.

Gu, Lu, Zhu, Zhang;

Yu, Wei, Kong, Xie... Without the Lu family and the Zhu family, the other six family patriarchs gathered, and they lay out of the window one by one and looked at the dim candlelight, under which there was a faint light, reflected on their old and wooden faces.

At this time, the servants seemed to realize something... They instinctively wanted to report it, but suddenly realized that the sea of purgatory fire in the Neijiang River had forced their master, the lord of Eastern Wu, to take the brave chariot to inspect the tiger horse.

The entire Jianye City? Where else can anyone report it?

So...

What are these patriarchs doing strangely?

"Should they?"

A servant's words haven't been blurted out yet.

"Shhh

Another servant hurriedly covered his mouth and solemnly reminded: "Don't talk, you and I haven't seen anything, and we have forgotten everything that happened tonight, so that we can live for a long time." ”

…

In the early morning, the Zhou family's mansion... A glimmer of light poured into the room through the window.

Xiao Qiao woke up, she habitually got up and went to the ancestral hall, wanting to serve her late husband Zhou Lang the hot tea she cooked, Xiao Qiao is the best at making tea, and Zhou Lang also likes to drink it.

Therefore, after Zhou Yu died of illness, for several years, Xiao Qiao would serve a cup of tea in the morning and evening to talk about lovesickness...

But this time, when she habitually went to greet her subordinates to serve tea sets, she was shocked to find that the entire Zhou Mansion was empty, and the atmosphere here was cold and terrifying.

She suddenly cheered up and hurriedly searched around, until she saw people in the main hall, it was Sun Shao, Tai Shixiang, Zhou Jun and Huang Bing.

They were armoured, and their hands were firmly on their swords.

Xiao Qiao's footsteps froze, looking at these people in shock, she was stunned for a while... But in front of them, these familiar juniors suddenly seemed to have become strangers.

Because, their long-suppressed countenances are now glowing with an elegant, smart, confident, and determined look. It seems to be the appearance of Zhou Lang of Chibi back then.

Xiao Qiao was in a trance, and asked in a trembling voice, "You... How is it here? Why does it look like this? ”

Sun Shao replied calmly: "Mrs. Qiao, we have finally waited for this day, for my father, for General Taishi, for General Huang, and for Governor Zhou... For those countless heroes who were loyal to Eastern Wu and fought until the last moment, but were stabbed to death by Sun Quan's dog thief... They and we have been waiting for this day. ”

- "For... Is it Zhou Lang?'

Xiao Qiao felt that her eyes were sour, she seemed to have a premonition of something, but she still asked suspiciously: "You... You have just arrived, don't you sit for a while, are you going to go out? ”

Sun Shao still replied firmly: "Don't sit down, I'm going to go now!" ”

"Does it have to be today?"

This time, it was Zhou Yu's nephew Zhou Jun who replied categorically: "The battle is mediocre and there is no way, it is today..."

Xiao Qiao seemed to suddenly think of something, "That Xun'er... He, has he been hiding it from me? ”

"It's... Zhou Xun Gongzi just didn't want Mrs. Qiao to worry! Sun Shao said softly: "And Mrs. Da Qiao, I am also waiting for this Jiangdong to reunite with Mrs. after another day..."

"What if it fails? You... You, and Xun'er..."Little Joe shouted uncontrollably, "in case... What if? ”

This time, Sun Shao, Tai Shixiang, Zhou Jun, and Huang Shan looked at each other and exchanged glances, and they became more determined.

"Taking advantage of this earth-shattering strategy laid by the prince of Yunqi, taking advantage of this God-given opportunity, we must do this, and we must make that Sun Quan dog thief pay the price for all his past actions!"

Xiao Qiao was a little distracted, she knew that this was a joint decision including his son, but she was still a little worried.

Because in her experience world, Sun Quan can be defeated countless times, but for her son Zhou Xun, for these juniors in front of Hongyan, as long as they defeat once, it will be completely over!

"Maybe when Gongjin was poisoned, if I knew the truth, I would be as desperate as you, but now... Time seems to erase all of this, making me unusually calm? And how many soldiers can you have? No matter how bad Sun Quan is, he still has 5,000 cars in his hands to get under the tiger guard, all of which are loyal to him Sun Quan... I... Although I am a woman, I know that Sun Quan is not easy to deal with, what you have to do, I... I'm really scared! ”

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—"

The blade of the sword was unsheathed, four people, four swords were drawn at the same time, they looked at Xiao Qiao solemnly, and the afterglow had already glanced out the window, "Mrs. Qiao doesn't know yet, as early as half a year ago, this is the place where we raised the dead, our sword... After enduring it for half a year, finally... Finally ready to be unsheathed today, Madame Joe, look at these swords, these swords are extremely sharp! ”

This...

Xiao Qiao took a deep breath, inexplicably because of the words of these juniors, she became much more determined and decisive in an instant.

It's just that she couldn't believe it, "You say... Half a year ago, the Zhou Mansion... Zhoufu is already a place where the dead of wild geese are raised in captivity? Are the dead hidden in this mansion? Why I... Why I don't know anything! ”

Xiao Qiao was talking, it seemed that because of nervousness, she retreated again and again, and she couldn't help but exit the door, and when she arrived at the back door of the room, she didn't think... It was something in the back.

And under the thin shadow of the sun, the bright swords reflected the cold light of Sen Ran, which made Xiao Qiao completely wake up...

When she raised her eyes again, she saw more than 500 white-clothed dead soldiers standing in the courtyard, each holding a sharp blade, killing terror.

At this moment, she finally realized that Sun Shao and the others were not deceiving people, these five hundred dead soldiers had been hiding here for months, and they could not be triggered!

All forbearance is for the sake of this day!

At this moment, I only heard a "clang", like something in the room.

Immediately after, these white-clothed dead men stood up one after another, their steps in unison...

Sun Shao was the first to walk out of the room, his sword pointing at the palace of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

"Are you all ready?"

…

…

The morning light was slightly dewed, the gate of Jianye City was opened, and on the pontoon bridge, a group of cavalry was moving forward.

And under the support of these cavalrymen, a luxurious, spacious carriage was in the middle.

This is Sun Quan riding with his five thousand carts under the tiger... Hearing that the river was attacked by a flying ball, and under the sea of purgatory, the iron cable of Lianjiang was at risk of being melted at any time, Sun Quan couldn't sit still anymore, and took the car to the riverside to take a look at it as soon as possible.

When many people heard the news, they also rushed to stand at the head of the city, looking at the red fire on the river.

There was a lot of talk in the crowd.

"I heard that in the past, Fancheng was burned down by Guan Jia Shilang's heavenly fire, and now the fire in Omijiang, in addition to breaking Wu Hou's iron cable across the river? Is there also a deterrent purpose? ”

"Don't say it, no, Wu Hou has already taken the car to get off the tiger and ride to support... There is a tiger riding under the car, don't say that the iron cable Hengjiang is still there, but it is really melted, and Wuhu Port is not so easy to fall..."

"Don't say this big thing, if it weren't for the fact that Guan Lin didn't burn the people and Li Shu, a fire directly burned Wuhu Port, and then... How can there be a tiger riding under the car? Where is there still a naval army in Soochow? What's more, when Chaisang and Lujiang were back then, many people also said the same, but who are Chaisang and Lujiang now? ”

"No, then Guan Jia Shiro hasn't burned Wuhu Port yet? Didn't we break through Yecheng yet? Then again... Wu Hou has been detaining those big clan patriarchs, and this is not a problem! ”

"Shhhh You don't want to die, be quiet! ”

In the crowd, there was no shortage of people with wild geese, and they all wore hats, and when they saw Sun Quan's carriage, they raised their eyes from the eaves in their pockets to observe the carriage from a distance.

Finally, a person from Hong Yan was in an excellent position, and he saw it clearly, and he whispered to the person next to him: "It is indeed Sun Quan, if it is fake!" ”

"I'll go and pass the news to the Zhou Mansion immediately... Now that Sun Quan is out, it's time for Hongyan to act! ”

In this compartment, the dark tide of the wild goose is surging in an orderly manner.

Over there, Lu Meng approached Sun Quan and said softly: "Wu Hou took five thousand cars to get off the tiger ride, the more I think about it, the more uneasy I become, and I think about it again and again, if there is an accident within Jianye, what should I do?" ”

Sun Quan looked at Lu Meng: "No, there are still you!" With you, what can happen? There are still officers and soldiers left in Jianye City... It's enough to deter the small group, not to mention... At this time, if the iron cable of the Hengjiang River is really melted, Wuhu Port is lost, and Jianye City is stationed with tens of thousands of soldiers and horses? What's the point? Take 10,000 steps back and say, those big clan patriarchs are imprisoned, how can there be chaos in the tribal of these big clans? ”

"But..."Lu Meng still felt that something was wrong.

But apart from the word "but", he couldn't open his mouth anything, it seemed... It's that he's overhearted.

The horn sounded, and the tiger rider under the car quickly galloped towards Wuhu Port...

Many people looked at the surging soldiers and horses, and from time to time discussed, "It can be described as an eventful autumn..."

"Wash and sleep, who knows who will be the king banner at the head of this city at noon?"

"Wow, mother, I'm going home, I'm going home..."

It seems that many old and young women in the crowd are also there, and they all have confused eyes, full of worries about the future of Jiangdong.

…

…

Sun Shao pointed to the map of Jianye City, which detailed every fortress in Jianye City.

He said generously: "Sun Quan took 5,000 carts to get off the tiger cavalry to support, the dragons in Jianye City have no leader, General Zhou Xun will find ways to delay the arrival of Sun Quan's army in Wuhu, what we need to do is... Before Sun Quan arrives in Wuhu, take the first step to rescue the patriarchs of the major clans trapped in the palace! ”

Immediately, Sun Shao instructed: "Zhou Jun, you take a pair of dead soldiers to attack the palace, Taishi Xiang, you go to stop Lu Meng, Huang Shan... You take a hundred people to control the palace, and you must keep Wu Guotai, foot trainers and other Wu palace ladies in your hands..."

Speaking of this, Sun Shao instructed again: "I will personally control the arsenal..."

"Good..."

The crowd responded in unison.

Sun Shao finally added: "According to the plan of the Cloud Banner Prince, the flying ball in the sky will parachute a soldier and horse to assist us, and the Jingzhou Navy will also vigorously attack Wuhu Port to attract Sun Quan's attention, and we will wait for the task... It's also the way to win... It is to rescue these big clan patriarchs, as long as they get their support, send these patriarchs to Wuhu Port first, persuade the defenders there to give up resistance, and welcome the king of Jingzhou, this battle will be won! ”

Tai Shixiang took the initiative to ask, "If our army takes the palace, the enemy army will inevitably surround the palace, and at that time... The armament of the arsenal will become the focus of the enemy's contention, and it is also the most dangerous place, Brother Shao, why don't I exchange with you, I will attack the arsenal and defend the arsenal! ”

is worthy of being Tai Shici's son, who took the initiative to stand up at this time and took on the most difficult task.

Huang Shan and Zhou Jun also echoed: "Yes, the arsenal is very important, and Brother Shao is the leader of my Hongyan, so there must be no mistakes, so this arsenal, we will guard it..."

Sun Shao opened his mouth with a majestic face, "Although Hongyan is not a military, he also pays the most attention to the rules, I am the lord of Hongyan, at this time my words are rules, and I will do what I say..."

After that, he suddenly got up, walked out of the window, walked to the body of the dead soldiers, the sunlight overflowed in the sky, and the outside seemed to be a vast and deep sky, the morning sun was born, gorgeous as blood... Even the wind blows like a full ruse!

There were several rows of dead soldiers standing in the courtyard, they looked at Sun Shao with bright eyes, and the soldiers in the front row shouted, "General? When to kill? When will Sun Quan be punished without a way——"

Sun Shao's gaze slowly and stared at these stoic faces one by one, and he could clearly remember that each of these people in the first row was because of some family feuds... and Sun Quan do not share the sky, different sun and moon!

The gaze of so many hatreds gathered seemed to be so small for the entire Dongwu, but at this moment, when they converged in one place, people couldn't help but think of four words - "The edge is exposed!" ”

Sun Shao said with emotion: "All the monarchs have a common enmity with the Sun Quan dog thief, since the death of my father Sun Ce, the little overlord, since the death of General Tai Shici, the first fierce general of Eastern Wu, since the death of Zhou Lang, the governor of Jiangdong, since Xu Kun, Wu Jing, Sun Yi, General Huang Gai... After his death, you have endured with me to this day, for more than ten years, I know you, you know me, I and you all know that the murderer behind the murder is Sun Quan, but we have never had an accident, we have always been forbearing... I'm waiting, I'm waiting for the day when I will kill that Sun Quan dog thief with one blow! Today's auspicious time has come, and the trend of thieves is in this day. I and all the kings can comfort the martyrs in the sky, if they are defeated... I go with you and the heroes—"

All the dead knelt down together and shouted: "Follow the wild goose, destroy the unruly, and die without resignation—"

Tai Shixiang shouted, "Swear by blood..."

Immediately, all the dead soldiers drew their swords together, and a cold glow was like blood, and in an instant, the blood rose from the knife, and everyone cut a slight wound on their arms, allowing the blood to flow down.

Tai Shixiang, Sun Shao, Huang Shan, Zhou Xun... He also drew his sword, cut his arm, and solemnly smeared the blood on his lips.

Until this time...

Sun Shao shouted: "Let's go, the day of the thief is today——"

…

…

On the watchtower of the Jianye City Palace, several guards were discussing something with terrifying faces.

"You said that Wu Hou took the car to ride out of the tiger to support Wuhu this time? Can you withstand the Jingzhou army? ”

"I've heard, not only the Jingzhou Army, this time... Even Guan Yunchang came, personally coordinating and deploying the attack on Wuhu, plus the sea of purgatory fire was in front, how could Zhou Xun hold it? I'm afraid that before Wu Hou arrives... The port of Wuhu has been captured! ”

"Wu Hou also has General Lu Meng under him, during this time, at the suggestion of General Lu Meng, Wu Hou made drastic reforms and returned the land to the people, which has been quite effective... Maybe with the help of General Lu Meng, can Dongwu turn the crisis into safety? ”

"Hehe... Open your eyes and see, what else is Soochow doing to turn the crisis into safety now! Take those great patriarchs in the palace? This is nothing more than drinking water to quench your thirst, and if you don't do it well, you will be backfired..."

While the guards were talking...

Suddenly, a guard by the window asked in a trembling voice, "W-What is that?" ”

Several guards crowded to the window, only to see smoke and dust billowing from the street in the distance, several horses galloping first, hundreds of people running, more than a hundred flags, in the reflection of the dawn sun, the words on them were clearly visible.

Taishi –

Tai Shi Ci's Tai Shi!

Sun –

Sun Ce's grandson!

Zhou –

Zhou Yu's Zhou!

There is also Xu Kun's Xu, Huang Gai's Huang, Wu Jing's Wu...

And the names that can never be seen, and the banner that their surnames represent.

Here they come, here they come ...

They are furious and murderous!

With a "snap", one of the guards was so frightened that his legs were paralyzed, and the whole person fell to the ground, and he shouted in panic: "Hurry... Go and report to General Lü Meng, go and report to General Lu Meng..."

It's just that I don't know if it's because the guards on the watchtower are all weak and unable to move, or if they are instinctively unwilling to move...

The guard shouted loud enough, but no one went to report to Lu Meng.

Lu Meng was studying in the pavilion at this time, he liked to read very much, and reading made him forget all his troubles for a short time...

At this time, one of the guards ran out of breath and rushed over and shouted, "General Lu... No... Oh no, the palace... The direction of the palace was attacked, the palace gave up resistance, and the thief army has... Already rushed in! ”

What?

Lu Meng was taken aback, the most feared thing still happened, he jumped three feet, and hurriedly asked, "Thief soldier?" Where did the thieves come from? ”

He hurriedly rushed out...

At this time, the streets and alleys were already in chaos, and you could hear the neat steps in the streets and alleys, as well as the shouts of the majestic Didi...

The shouts of killing came from the palace, from the arsenal, and from the nearby streets and alleys.

"General Lu, it's... Is it a wild goose? ”

"Hongyan?" Lu Meng raised his head in astonishment, as a diehard loyalist of Sun Quan, as a military general who used to be Sun Ce's heavy weapon, he is no stranger to Hongyan, this is a legion formed by the personal guards of the past heroes, Lu Meng was quite jealous of it, but because of Sun Quan and the suppression of Hongyan by major families, in Lu Meng's experience world, Hongyan has been abolished...

It's no longer a cause for concern...

But who would have thought that it was they who were giving Dongwu a fatal blow at the weakest moment of Soochow.

"Soldiers... Soldiers..."Lu Meng hurriedly shouted: "There are still thousands of troops in my mansion, quickly gather them and go to the arsenal... Recapture the arsenal and get the weapons, so that the situation can be stabilized..."

As he spoke, Lu Meng snatched a soldier's fast horse, and along with his sword, he lifted the sword... Quickly rush to the side of the alley!

"Enemy attack, enemy attack—"

"Soldiers, arrays... Quick, quick..."

When Lu Meng's mansion was inside, the sound of the enemy attack resounded, and the parts that were originally quite slack instantly raised their spirits.

They quickly put on their armor and ran out of the house one by one, forming a military formation...

They carry their armor with them, but their weapons need to pass through the arsenal...

Lu Meng's confidant lieutenant immediately ordered, "The general has been killed in the arsenal, I will follow him as soon as possible, the thieves are just thieves, today... If you can save the situation, you will be a great achievement! ”

As he spoke, the whole part moved... Fly out as if you were going out.

But at the moment of going out...

All these parts stopped, because, beyond the moon gate... Above the sky as far as the eye can see, among the countless flying balls, there are countless Jingzhou soldiers who jumped bravely and jumped...

They were in the sky, not knowing what they had touched, and then one by one they spread out like petals.

For a time, the petals covered the entire sky...

And the appearance of this scene, in the hearts of all the Dongwu tribes, subconsciously converged into four words - Heavenly Divine Soldiers!

That's right...

Enemies are jumping from the sky, and this image... It's like a heavenly soldier descending from the sky, which makes people daunting and terrifying, so that every soldier of Dongwu has his legs like lead and stops.

In this day and age, the unknown... Always the most terrifying-
