Chapter 985

Zhou Yu has been standing on one side, he observed all the reactions of Huang Gai. Because Zhou Yu thought that Huang Gai was a prisoner, and now he is released, which is a little strange. To be sure, Zhou Yu believed that Huang Gai's loyalty and courage were impossible to surrender, but the reality was cruel. What if Huang Gai really had?

Zhou Yu turned his mind and asked: "general Gong Fu, why did Zhang Xiu release you?"

Huang Gai said: "Zhang Xiu didn't say why. He only told us clearly that he would lead the fleet down from the Yangtze River to Wuxian. Zhang Xiu's ferry on the Yangtze River set us free. At that time, Zhang Xiu released more than 10000 soldiers of Wu state, but in the end, only more than 1000 soldiers withdrew with me. The rest of the Wu soldiers have all fled. "

After hearing this, Zhou Yu's face changed greatly.

He got it!

This is Zhang Xiu's calculation.

Zhou Yu looked at Sun CE and said eagerly, "Your Highness, Zhang Xiu's mind is extremely poisonous. The reason why he released more than 10000 prisoners is to disturb the local people and make people think differently. "

"The more than 10000 defeated and captured soldiers must have fled back to their villages. After these people publicized Zhang Xiu's strength, the whole state of Wu would have a floating heart, thinking that Zhang Xiu's army could not be stopped. "

"This is Zhang Xiu's poison plan."

"With the help of the people, the state of Wu was disturbed."

"Of course, Zhang Xiu released the prisoners and reduced the pressure on food and grass, so as not to let the prisoners consume countless food and grass. Today, the army led by Zhang Xiu is going straight to Wu County, which is even more crucial. "

"Although Wu county is strong, but people's hearts are floating down, the garrison in Wu county may not be able to keep it."

With sharp eyes, Zhou Yu said, "the first thing we need to do now is to arrange for our soldiers to rush back to Wu County, and order Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zhen, who are left behind in Wu County, to stay. And we're here, and we're coming back with the army. On the way back to Wu County, we should constantly recruit soldiers and expand our strength. If only the present strength is not enough to help Wu County. "

Sun CE said, "what Gongjin said is true."

"Fast, it must be fast!"

Sun CE's eyes are extremely sharp.

"Your Highness, I'd like to go back and send a message first."

Just at this time, a young general around Sun CE stood up. His name is Lu Meng. Now he is not well-known. He is a young general under sun CE's command. He has a lot of brains among the younger generation.

Sun cehan said: "Lv Meng, you have excellent riding skills. You can go back and send a message to the king. Don't worry. When you return to Wu County, you will let Zhongmou take charge of the overall situation on behalf of our king and stick to it with all your strength. "

"Here it is

Lu Meng's fist should be thrown.

He took two horses and drove on quickly. Along the way, Lu Meng kept on running day and night. After one horse was abandoned, he replaced another one and rushed back to Wu County in the shortest time.

Because he was in a hurry day and night, but also before Zhang Xiu, the first step back to Wu County. It's just that the story of sun CE's defeat has been spread in the city of Wu County. The civil servants and military generals of Wu state are in a mess, which can be described as panic.

Everyone was worried.

Some civil servants headed by Zhang Zhao thought that they could not stop the army of Qin and should surrender in order to preserve the state of Wu. Even some of the sun family are like this.

After all, sun CE was defeated.

Even Lu Su is dead.

The 60000 troops brought out by sun CE were almost annihilated. It is conceivable that they caused great waves in the state of Wu.

However, Sun Jing and Sun Quan are simply stuck.

When LV Meng returned, he went directly to see Sun Quan and said Sun CE's order. Today's Sun Quan is in his early twenties and has long been an adult. Although he did not inherit the foundation of the state of Wu as he did in history, today Sun Quan is quite dignified and resourceful.

He got sun CE's order and immediately arranged for Zhuge Jin to be called.

Zhuge Jin is a member of his staff.

In addition to that, there was also Bu Gu. Bu Gu was not only Sun Quan's adviser, but also Sun Quan's elder brother-in-law. Because Bu's sister married Sun Quan.

In the hall, Sun Quan sits in the main seat.

Below are LV Meng, Zhuge Jin and bu Jia.

Sun Quan looked at the crowd with a solemn expression and said: "brother arranged for LV Meng to come back and send an order, so that our country would take charge of the overall situation. Obviously, he wanted to fight Zhang Xiu to death. Now Zhang Xiu comes from the Yangtze River and estimates that it won't take long to arrive. "

"To call you here is to discuss how to deal with the current situation."

"The Manchurian princes, countless people clamored to surrender, with surrender to protect the state of Wu. Hum, it's the first time I've heard that surrender can protect the whole country. It's really new. "

Sun Quan said, "what do you think we should do to reverse the decline?"

Zhuge Jin stroked her beard and said slowly, "the second young master, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan, as well as Yu fan, Xue Zong and Zhang Wen, all agreed to surrender and thought that they could not stop Zhang Xiu. It's not easy for civil servants to do so. After all, the strength of these people is quite strong and influential. If you want to resist with all your strength, you are likely to be hindered. "Bu said: "brother Zhuge is right. The situation is decadent. It's really not easy to plan a full-scale Anti Japanese war. Even if we do our best, what if some of them, who are willing to do something, agree on the surface, but actually do it secretly? "

Lu Meng had a sharp look in his eyes and said, "if you want me to say that as long as you suggest surrender, you'd better kill all of them."

"Not right!"

Zhugejin shook her head and said, "he killed ministers and civil servants. When the news came out, it made the state of Wu more turbulent. It is impossible to do such a thing. Otherwise, it is tantamount to self destruction. Especially Zhang Zhao and Zhang Dan, who dares to move? "

Sun Quan's eyes were deep and he asked in a deep voice, "Ziyu, what do you think we should do?"

Ziyu is zhugejin's character.

Zhugejin replied: "second young master, I suggest that we should call all the people together first and make it clear that his highness will order a death fight. Then, we will see who will persuade us to surrender. "

"As long as it's the surrender, find a reason for the time being and put them in jail."

"These people don't need to be put to death. After all, there is no shortage of these people in Wu Kingdom. So we should detain them first to stabilize the situation. If we don't kill them anyway, our families will not dare to act rashly. "

Zhu Gejin put forward suggestions.

After thinking about it, Sun Quan nodded: "not bad, not bad!"

He agreed with the plan mentioned by Zhuge Jin, but Sun Quan had his own ideas, but he didn't reveal them. Immediately, Sun Quan arranged for his attendants to summon all the civil servants of the state of Wu to the palace of King Wu.

Sun Quan brought Zhuge Jin, bu Jia, LV Meng and others to the meeting hall. In addition, Sun Jing, Wu Jing and other members of the sun and Wu families were also present.

Sun Quan did not sit on the throne. He placed a seat under the throne as his seat.

In about two quarters of an hour, all the people gathered.

Sun Quan looked around at the people, especially Zhang Dan and Zhang Zhao, and said slowly, "after the news of brother Wang's defeat in Poyang Lake came back to Wu County, the whole county was in a state of panic, and everyone was worried."

"I have heard that many people have discussed surrender."

"But now, brother Wang arranged for LV Meng to return first, and ordered our country to supervise Wu's affairs, and ordered him to fight to the death to resist Zhang Xiu's attack. Now Brother Wang is determined to fight to the end. "

"But even so, I have to ask you more, what do you mean?"

Sun Quan was not impatient and said, "after listening to the suggestions of the princes, we'll come up with a plan to resist Zhang Xiu. After all, Zhang Xiu takes the Yangtze River waterway and will soon arrive in Wu County. Although you can speak freely, it's OK to say so. "

Zhang Zhao was not only a civil servant of Wu, but also the helmsman of Zhang Jia.

He had to consider not only the situation of the state of Wu, but also the situation of his family. Zhang Zhao said, "second young master, in view of the current situation, the old minister thinks that the state of Wu can't hold on. It's better to protect the whole country and be a minister to the state of Qin than to let the people's lives be ruined. "

This is Zhang Zhao's attitude.

What's more, the trend of Zhang Xiu's defeating Yuan Shao, killing Cao Cao and destroying Liu Bei's state of Chu is getting closer and closer. At this point, Zhang Zhao is not optimistic about Wu.

If sun CE had never been defeated in Poyang Lake, that would be fine. However, sun CE's defeat in Poyang Lake also damaged Lu Su and countless soldiers. Under such a premise, Zhang Zhao no longer insisted that he should surrender.
