Chapter 736: Breaking the Construction Industry
Just when the Wei army was approaching the city, the Jianye City at this time was already in chaos, and the panicked people wanted to get out of the city, but they were blocked at the city gate.
The morale of the army in Jianye City was in turmoil, and with only 30,000 defenders, they had no chance of winning at all in the face of the elite of the hundreds of thousands of Wei troops who were like wolves and tigers!
"Mother, mother!" A handsome young man ran into the backyard of the palace with a strong face, and this person was Sun Jian's second son, Sun Quan.
A woman with a kind appearance and charm still walked out with the support of the spleen girl, and said unhappily: "Zhongmou, why are you so flustered? ”
Sun Quan took his mother from the handmaiden's handmaiden and said to the maidservant: "Go and bring the queen's clothes in a package!" ”
The maid looked at the old lady with some confusion, and Wu Guotai, who was also famous in later generations, frowned and asked, "Zhongmou, is something happening?" ”
Sun Quan nodded, and said with a frown: "Cao Cao personally led the troops here, and now the more than 100,000 troops of the Wei army have come to the city, and Jianye City has begun to be in chaos!" ”
Wu Guotai was stunned for a moment, "You mean, the Wei army has already arrived in the city!" ”
Sun Quan nodded, and urged anxiously: "Mother, we have few soldiers, and it is impossible to defeat the Wei army!" Hurry up and escape from the city with the child before the Wei army has formed an encirclement! ”
Wu Guotai frowned and hesitated for a moment, shook his head, and said: "I have lived here for a long time, and besides, this is the capital of my Great Wu, after I am your father, I can leave during this period!" Flee yourself! ”
Sun Quan couldn't help but be anxious, and hurriedly came up to persuade his mother to escape from the city with him, but Wu Guotai was already determined, Sun Quan finally sighed helplessly, held his mother's arm and said: "Since the mother is not leaving, of course the child will not leave either!" ”
Wu Guotai couldn't help but feel pleased. But he glared and scolded: "You stinky boy, your wings are hard? Disobedient? ”
Sun Quan pretended to be a scoundrel and smiled: "Mother, I know you deliberately scolded the child!" Actually, mother, you don't have to worry too much! The walls of Jianye are tall enough to hold on for a period of time, and when the father and eldest brother lead the army back, the siege of the Wei army will definitely be lifted! ”
Wu Guotai couldn't help but sigh. touched Sun Quan's head, and sighed with a kind face: "You! Disobedient since childhood! It's a big deal, our mother and daughter died together! ”
A moment later, Zhu Ting, the general in charge of defending Jianye, came to the mansion and reported: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince, Queen Niangniang, many people are crowded at the gate of the city, and the last general is worried about the change of the people!" ”
Wu Guotai frowned and asked, "What does the general mean?" ”
"It's better to kill one and do a hundred!" Sen Han's killing intent flashed in Zhu Ting's eyes.
"No! How can you kill innocents indiscriminately? ”
Wu Guotai's eyes couldn't help but flash with disgust. "You go down to persuade each other, don't use the sword in vain! If there is a violation, Hugh blames the palace for not remembering your past exploits! ”
Zhu Ting's heart sank, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and promised, and retreated.
In the middle of the night, Jianye City, which had been noisy all day, finally quieted down, and there was not a single pedestrian on the street, only a team of patrols patrolling the street. There was an atmosphere of slaughter in the city.
Suddenly, a group of dark shadows appeared on the streets west of the city and rushed towards the city gate. Immediately, a rapid sound of swords and soldiers mixed with exclamations, warnings, and screams sounded under the West City Gate.
A moment later, the sound of horses' hooves was loud, and a fierce and unusual cavalry rushed into the city from the wide open city gate, and then the fire was shining brightly, only to see countless Wei troops rushing towards the city gate, and there were many black-clothed people under the city gate to guide the Wei soldiers who entered the city. These people are the shadow troops who have been lurking in Jianye City for a long time.
The Wei army that entered the city fought several small and not very fierce battles with the defenders of Wu, and then the defenders with Zhu Ting laid down their arms and surrendered to the Wei army.
Some Wei troops searched for the remnants of the Wu army in the city, another part of the Wei army quickly took control of key areas such as granaries in Jianye City, and some Wei troops quickly took control of the palace under the leadership of Dian Wei and Cao Pi. But though they surrounded the palace, they did not enter.
Early the next morning, the people opened their doors and poked their heads out with apprehension, and when they saw the black-clothed and black-armored Wei soldiers on the street, they couldn't help but be shocked, and quickly shrank back.
After being frightened at home for a moment, he found that Wei Jun did not seem to mean to hurt them, so he summoned up the courage to open the door and walked out.
There were more and more people on the streets, and the expressions on their faces gradually calmed down, and the Wei soldiers didn't even look at them, and went about their own business.
"Orbital orbit"
The sound of the gong suddenly sounded, and the people could not help but follow the voice, only to see three soldiers coming from the other side of the street, one of them carrying a gong and striking it.
While beating the gong, the sergeant raised his voice and said: "Jianye's fellow villagers, my Wei army's expedition to Wu is the way of heaven, our Wei army is strictly disciplined, and has never harassed the people, so you don't need to panic!" If there is a sergeant who is a traitor, you can go to the Taishou Mansion to accuse, and His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei will make the decision for you! In order to compensate the villagers for their losses in the war, His Majesty the Emperor of Great Wei issued a special decree that all the people of Jianye would be exempted from paying land tax for three years, and the merchants would be exempted from paying for one year! The words fell, and the gong was struck again.
Hearing this, the people immediately began to discuss, and many people's faces showed surprise, this year, Sun Jian's harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes have made them suffer, Cao Cao's measure made him win the hearts of Jianye and even the entire Wu State in a very short period of time.
Cao Cao rode across the war horse to the outside of King Wu's palace, and Dian Wei and Cao Pi, who were waiting here, hurriedly greeted him and hugged his fists and said, "See Your Majesty (Father)!" ”
Cao Cao nodded, glanced at the palace, and asked, "No one trespassed, right?" ”
Dian Weihong said: "No! ”
Cao Cao jumped off his horse, accompanied by Dian Wei, Cao Pi and dozens of royal forest soldiers into the palace, and the maidservants who were cleaning at the gate saw dozens of Wei soldiers walking in. The Wei army is in! ”
It didn't take long for Cao Cao to see a few people walking out from the rear, and when a very young man was holding a graceful and luxurious woman, Cao Cao immediately knew that it must be Sun Jian's wife, the famous Wu Guotai in later generations!
Cao Cao came to Wu Guotai and stopped a few steps, clenched his fists and asked, "Is this Mrs. Sun?" ”
Wu Guotai replied to the etiquette of a nobleman, and replied: "The old woman is, I didn't expect the dignified Emperor Wei to come to meet the concubine in person!" (To be continued.) )
