"Father is so afraid of that Su Zhe?" Ling Tong looked at his father in surprise, his face in disbelief.

Ling Cao said: "You have also seen the wisdom of King Wei, everyone is just a chess piece in his eyes, and his immortal technique of calling the wind and rain, such a god-like means, shouldn't mortals like me be afraid?" ”

A rhetorical question made Ling Tong speechless, and he didn't know how to refute it.

He stepped forward, patted his son on the shoulder, and persuaded him in a heartfelt tone: "Tong'er, follow the mandate of heaven, Jiangdong will perish, the Sun family will perish, after all, we are ordinary people, why bother to fight against the gods for Sun Ce, a mortal." ”

Ling Tong's body was shocked, and he fell into a deep silence, his eyes rolling uncertainly, and he fell into endless contemplation.

After a long time, he let out a long breath, looked at Ling Cao with bitter and helpless eyes, and nodded silently.

Ling Cao also breathed a sigh of relief, hugged his son's shoulder fiercely, and smiled with relief.

Since he had made a choice, Ling Tong naturally did not drag his feet, and immediately ordered the gate of Chaisang City to be opened to welcome Su Zhe's army into the city.

In the evening, the four gates of Chaisang City were opened, and the three thousand defenders, under the leadership of Ling Tong, opened out of the city gate in an orderly manner, abandoned their weapons on the ground, and surrendered to the Wei army in formation.

Ling Cao went back to Wei Ying first and reported the good news to Su Zhe.

Everything was expected by Su Zhe, and he immediately sent troops and horses to enter the city in advance to take over the city and reorganize the army.

Then, Su Zhecai sat on his crotch with the red rabbit and the sword hanging from his waist, and strode all the way into Chaisang City.

"The last general, Ling Tong, meet the King of Wei."

On the city tower, Ling Tong bowed down to Su Zhe, showing his determination to surrender.

"Hurry up." Su Zhe helped him up with his own hands, and said with a smile: "It's really a tiger father without a dog, this king can get your father and son to be obedient, why worry that Jiangdong can't be pacified." ”

Ling Tong immediately bowed his hand and said angrily: "King Wei is the lord of the mandate of heaven, the gods descend to earth, the king only hates to have eyes and no beads, and he did not descend early, and he is willing to lead the naval army as the striker, take Jianye directly for the king of Wei, and sweep Jiangdong!" ”

"Good, good! Very good! Let's drink first today, clean up the affairs of Jiangdong, and talk about it tomorrow, haha-"

Su Zhe was overjoyed, and immediately ordered another banquet in Chaisang, firstly to celebrate the fall of Chaisangcheng without a fight, and secondly, to celebrate the victory of Ling Tong, a general.

After three rounds of drinking, Su Zhe suddenly remembered that he still had one of the prisoners Jiang Qin that had not been done.

Although this Jiang Qin's martial arts ability is not as good as that of the Ling family and his son, he is also proficient in water warfare, and he can be regarded as a general, so it is naturally best to be able to subdue him.

At that moment, Su Zhe said: "Gongji, the previous Deng Shizai attacked Haiyang City and captured Jiang Qin alive, and this king also admires this person, I don't know if you can say that he was surrendered for this king." ”

As soon as he heard Jiang Qin's name, Ling Tong's eyes couldn't help but light up: "Don't hide it from King Wei, the last general has a good relationship with this Jiang Qin, and the last general is willing to persuade this person to surrender for King Wei." ”

Su Zhe's eyes lit up, and he asked Ling Tong to go and say surrender.

Suddenly, Ling Tong came to the prison where Jiang Qin was imprisoned.

At this moment, Jiang Qin was sitting in the dim cell, looking at the bright moon outside the iron window in a daze.

"Is Chaisan lost like this, alas......"

After losing his mind for a long time, he shook his head and sighed, his eyes wandering with worry and confusion.

Worried, he was worried about the future and fate of Sun's foundation.

Confused, he couldn't understand why Sun Ce, who was invincible on the Yangtze River, lost to Su Zhe, and even an important town like Chaisang fell to the enemy.

With a creak, the cell door opened.

Jiang Qin came back from his trance, and when he turned around, he saw Ling Tong walking in.

"Gongji, how could you-" Jiang Qin was surprised and delighted, with a puzzled expression.

Ling Tong exhaled lightly after seeing that Jiang Qin was fine, but said with a smile: "Gongyi, don't come to harm, I didn't expect that when Jianye said goodbye that day, we would meet again in such a way." ”

The smile on Jiang Qin's face was gradually disappearing, his eyes were full of doubt, and he frowned and said, "Chaisang City is already Su Zhe's world, Ling Tong, if you appear in front of me like this, could it be that you have betrayed the lord?" ”

"That's right, I have returned to the King of Wei with my father, and this Chaisang City is also my initiative to sacrifice the city to the King of Wei." Ling Tong did not hide the facts and admitted it calmly.

Jiang Qin's face changed greatly, and he pointed his finger at Ling Tong: "Ling Tong, the lord treats your father and son well, you actually betrayed the lord, you, you-"

He was so angry and angry that he couldn't speak for a while.

Ling Tong was neither annoyed nor ashamed, he only said lightly: "Gongyi, you don't have to rush to blame, you might as well listen to it first, how King Wei defeated Sun Ce and took down Chaisang." ”

Jiang Qin was stunned, not knowing what his intentions were.

At that moment, Ling Tong told him all about the entire process of how Su Zhe implemented the discord plan.

First of all, how Su Zhe sent people to Jiangdong to spread rumors, elevate Gao Ji's reputation, and belittle Sun Ce's prestige, so as to arouse Sun Ce's suspicion of Ji.

Then how Su Zhe tricked his father Ling Cao and used the means of releasing Ling Cao to carry out the discordant plan, which once again aggravated Sun Ce's suspicion of Ling Cao.

Then, how did Su Zhe use money to bribe Yu Ji's disciples to testify and forge Yu Ji's handwriting, so that Sun Ce believed Ji's betrayal.

In the end, how did Su Zhe set off a rebellion of the "Shanyue" people in Jiangdong and launched a fatal blow, so that Sun Ce completely believed in Yu Ji's betrayal, and ordered Lu Su to behead Yu Ji.

This chain of discord, Ling Tong said it in plain language, and Jiang Qin was shocked to hear it, and an unbelievable expression couldn't help but appear on his face.

It was a deep confusion, like the confusion of mortals who could not comprehend the wisdom of the gods.

"This is the wisdom of the King of Wei, and the fog, it is also the King of Wei who summoned us by immortal magic, so he will kill us by surprise, break through the Chaisang Water Camp in one fell swoop, and kill Sun Ce who was defeated and fled."

"Let's ask, how can such a male lord with god-like wisdom and divine power, with Sun Ce being a mere mortal, be able to fight."

"Is it wrong that we are all mortals, to submit to the gods and obey the destiny of heaven?"

Ling Tongyi's words ended with a rhetorical question.

At this time, Jiang Qin could no longer see indignation on his face, and the whole person was stunned and fell into deep contemplation.

Not only did he no longer blame the so-called "betrayal" of the Ling father and son, but even the loyalty to Sun Ce in his heart was falling apart.

Between God and mortals, what reason does he have for not being faithful to God?

"I see, no wonder Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Dong Zhuo, and the princes were all defeated by Su Zhe, it turns out that they were not defeated by a mortal, but by a god......"

Jiang Qin, who had come to his senses, let out a helpless sigh, and his tone was not half hostile to Su Zhe, but full of deep awe.

Ling Tong breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Since this is the case, then you ...... Gongyi"

"You don't have to say anything more." Jiang Qin interrupted him with a wave of his hand, "I know your intentions, and I have figured everything out, take me to the King of Wei, I am willing to surrender to him and serve him as a dog and horse." ”
