Chapter 787: Jiang Xia broke Zhou Yusan

Seeing such a scene, Sun Jun had already reacted, his face was pale, and he was at a loss to wait for orders.

General Sun Jun, after a short panic, immediately pulled out his horse and turned around, wanting to lead the army to rush out.

But since Wei Yan had already prepared, how could he let the tiger return to the mountain again, and each gatekeeper, except for the north and south gates, was intercepted by Huang Xu and Wei Yan himself, and the rest were arranged with more than two generals.

As long as Sun's army entered the city, there was absolutely no hope of breaking out again, and it was either a bloody battle or a surrender.

The news of the ambush reached the ears of Zhou Yu, who was waiting outside the city, making him vomit blood urgently, if all these armies were lost here, then there would really be no hope at all.

Zhou Yu regretted it in his heart, he didn't take risks if he knew it, at least he could delay for some time to change.

For now, the outcome is already a foregone conclusion.

Glancing at Sun Ce, who was lying in a coma beside him, Zhou Yu muttered to himself: "Bo Fu, wake up, Yangzhou is over, you and my hard work are all over......"

After venting to himself for a while, Zhou Yu looked at the guards who were less than a thousand people left, and said slowly: "You guys go to each other, run for your lives." ”

The people who can protect the two of them are generally cronies, and when they heard Zhou Yu's words, they knelt down and sobbed quietly.

"I won't leave, where the governor and lord are, I will be there, even if it is death."

"Yes, I can't wait, I'm willing to follow to the death."

……

Follow?

Looking at these loyal soldiers, Zhou Yu couldn't bear it in his heart, because he knew that with these people, he would be endlessly surrounded and suppressed by the Li army, and in the end he would only lose his life in vain.

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly: "You are loyal, Yu has received it, but where else can I go?" ”

One of the guards replied: "Governor, it's not Yangzhou and there are still several counties, we can help the lord make a comeback." ”

Yangzhou itself is about to be in danger, and it is impossible to hope to turn over with this.

At this moment, Zhou Yu finally understood why the overlord would rather die than Wujiang, because he had long expected that without a chance to turn over, living would only be more painful.

"Choke!"

Zhou Yu pulled out his sword violently, crossed his neck and shouted: "Go, you can go, otherwise Yu will die and wait in front of you!" ”

Zhou Yu forced each other to die, and these soldiers had no choice but to leave reluctantly.

Disbanding these soldiers and horses, Zhou Yu glanced at the fire in the city that was gradually extinguishing, a few tears fell from the corner of his eyes, and slowly closed his eyes.

The hero has no way out, where should he go, Zhou Yu thought for a long time, and finally made up his mind, picked up the unconscious Sun Ce, and went away without looking back.

Zhou Yu lost his fighting spirit and disbanded the army, and the bloody battle in the city continued, until dawn, when Wei Yan took the initiative to order not to advance, the two sides tacitly stopped to rest.

In the battle last night, although the Li army trapped Sun Jun, the losses were also very heavy, if he really wanted to take it forcibly, I am afraid that he would have to pay at least fifty or sixty thousand casualties, which was not the result Wei Yan wanted.

In order to avoid the loyalty of these Yangzhou generals, Wei Yan adopted an open and honest shout, even if the final effect was not great, Sun Jun's determination to fight to the death would be broken.

Sure enough, when Li Jun appeared in the battle zone between the two sides and shouted, Sun Jun had a commotion, and no matter how the generals tried to stop it, it could not be quelled.

After all, under the choice of life and death, most people will choose life.

The general trend is the same, the heart of surrender is spreading in the army, and the generals of the Sun army know in their hearts that when the Li army launches another offensive, I am afraid that it will be defeated.

Rather than being defeated and captured, it is better to surrender voluntarily, and there are also some options.

Chen Wu of the South Gate, after some consideration, sent someone to inform Wei Yan that he was ready to negotiate surrender.

Knowing that Chen Wu took the initiative to contact, Wei Yan knew that most of the persuasion had been successful, so he hurriedly went there in person and met at the center of both sides.

The two were enemies, and if there was much intersection, Chen Wu didn't have anything to be polite about, so he said it directly.

"General Wei, Wu Zizhi knows that there is no hope of breaking through now, and the bloody battle will only cost the lives of the soldiers on both sides in vain, so he intends to surrender."

"But Wu has one condition, that is, after surrendering, Wu doesn't want to stay in the army, he wants to return to the mountains and forests and live a stable life."

There is nothing excessive about this condition, but there is one thing that Wei Yan has to guard against.

"Yes, but General Chen, you have to stay in Jingzhou for a year, and you are not allowed to leave within this year, you will be sent to monitor, and after a year, you will regain your freedom, and the general will go wherever he wants."

Wei Yan's reply was because he was afraid that Chen Wu would go to Yangzhou again and continue to fight against the army.

Chen Wu also knew Wei Yan's intentions, thought for a moment and said: "Okay, Wu promised that, since this is the case, I will go and hand over the whole army to General Wei." ”

"Don't worry, don't worry." Seeing that Chen Wu was about to leave, Wei Yan hurriedly spoke. "General Chen, the general has a little favor, I want you to come forward to help persuade the rest of the people to surrender, so as not to do unnecessary bloodshed."

Chen Wu was not very sure about persuading others, but he still decided to give it a try, after all, his colleagues were one, and he couldn't watch them die in battle.

"Okay, but Wu can't guarantee that they will accept surrender."

"It doesn't matter, as long as General Chen comes forward, no matter whether it is successful or not, the general will remember this favor." Chen Wu was willing to go, but Wei Yan hurriedly replied, asking him to eliminate his concerns.

Wei Yan said so, and Chen Wu was not a mother-in-law, and under the leadership of Li Jun, he went to Sanmen separately and persuaded them to surrender one by one.

Under the leadership of Chen Wu, these generals chose to surrender regardless of whether they were sincere or not, after all, in this situation, they could also guess the result of fighting to the death without surrendering.

In this way, Wei Yan easily solved this problem, Jiangxia was now returned to Li Jun, and Sun Ce's forces completely lost the ability to resist and detour.

Wei Yan took Jiangxia, and did not rush to join Gan Ning, but chose to digest the interior, and wait until it was completely stable before deciding whether to send troops.

Yangzhou, in just a few months, has lost four counties, and half of the eight major families have abandoned the Sun family and turned into hiding, waiting to see how the situation changes.

Yuzhang, Sun Quan has not closed his eyes for a few days, reinforcements have been delayed, according to the advance speed of the Li army, I am afraid that in another month, Yangzhou will be occupied by the Li army.

Feeling powerless, Sun Quan has re-experienced it, this time, it is even more desperate than when Sun Jian died in battle.

Most of the auxiliary ministers left by Sun Ce advocated surrender, so that Sun Quan did not know how to choose, and there was no news from Jiangxia for a long time.

"Ugh." Sun Quan shook his head helplessly, closed his eyes and prepared to squint for a while, and then wanted to Zhang Zhao's face with joy, and hurriedly walked over.

"Second son, the reinforcements have arrived, the reinforcements are coming......"

"What!?"

"Really? How many centaurs are there? ”

"The second son, there are more than 80,000 people, and they are led by two veterans, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai."

"Huh, sure enough, the sky will not destroy my Sun clan, tell me quickly, where are the two generals?"

"Second son, don't worry, it's less than a day away, and you should enter the city in the evening."
