I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 362, persuading surrender

After Liu Bei conquered Shu County, he rested here for five days.Liu Yao led three armies across the Yangtze River and joined Liu Bei.After the two sides meet up, discuss the next battle against Yuan Shu!
Joining the army, Zhu Hao said: "Now Yuan Shu only has one county in Jiujiang left, and only [-] soldiers are left, and most of them are recruits. Hefei wants to continue resisting our army!"

"Who is Sun Ce, have you never heard of it?" Zhang Fei asked strangely.

Zhu Hao smiled wryly and said: "Sun Ce is the eldest son of Sun Wentai. He is twenty years old this year. After Wentai died in battle, Yuan Shu took Sun Ce under his command. He loved him very much and taught him how to lead troops in battle. He even took Wentai to him last year. His ministry will be returned to him, which shows Yuan Shu's love for him!"

"The news from Jianghuai said that Sun Ce was extremely brave and highly skilled in martial arts. None of Yuan Shu's generals can surpass Sun Ce in martial arts! It may be for this reason that Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to Hefei to resist our attack!"

Zhu Hao also felt very embarrassed. Sun Jian was Zhu Jun's favorite student. He didn't bring Zhu Jun with him when he fought against the Yellow Turban Army. Sun Jian fought for it, and Sun Jian did not let him down. After experiencing military exploits, he quelled the Jingzhou Rebellion and stabilized the entire southern part of the Han Dynasty.

It's just a pity for Zhu Jun. Later, his favorite student mixed with Yuan Shu to fight against the court, and died young in battle!This is the pain of Zhu Jun's life. If Sun Jian hadn't died in battle, he would definitely become a famous general of the Han Dynasty!

Before sending troops, his father Zhu Jun told him that he wanted to find Sun Jian's family and bring them to Jingzhou after finding them.

What Zhu Hao never expected was that although he had found Sun Jian's family, he wanted to see him on the battlefield!

Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Yuan Shu has no one left, and he actually took Sun Ce, who is less than 20 years old, to be a general!"

Zhang Fei didn't care about Sun Ce's extraordinary bravery. In his opinion, Sun Ce just had no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys ruled the world.How strong martial arts can be at the age of twenty.

Zhang Ying, Liu Yao's general, advised: "General Zhang must not underestimate this Sun Ce. The last general has fought against Sun Ce. Sun Ce is very tenacious in battle. He takes the lead in fighting and is extremely brave. He is unmatched by ordinary generals!"

Zhang Fei said with great interest: "He is really so powerful, then I will go to Hefei to meet him!"

Liu Yao said: "Sun Ce's martial arts is second to none. May to July is the rainy season in the Jianghuai area. During this period of time it is not suitable for fighting. Hefei's terrain is dangerous and the city is strong. Even if we have an army of 5, it will be difficult to conquer Hefei during this period! If the war is delayed Over time, I'm afraid something will happen!"

Liu Yao was worried that Yuan Shao would support Yuan Shu. In this case, the war would expand to the entire Central Plains, and it would easily cause the division of the Han Dynasty. After all, Yuan Shao's power was far beyond Yuan Shu's comparison.It would be fine at other times, but now Lei Gong in Hebei is still eyeing him, and if the various forces of the big man continue to kill each other, Lei Gong can only benefit.

Guan Yu thought for a while and said, "Then we can only continue to use black powder to blow up the city. The soldiers in Sun Ce's hands are all recruits. As long as the city of Hefei is blown up by us, they will definitely panic. When the time comes, we will take the opportunity to seize Hefei. It should not be too long." days."

Zhao Yun said: "It's just an example in Shu County. I'm afraid Sun Ce will not let us blow up the city wall first, and we don't have much gunpowder. If we run out of gunpowder in Hefei, what should we do in Shouchun? To encircle Hefei, we will lead the army and the Qingzhou-Xuzhou allied forces to encircle Shouchun, as long as Yuan Shu's main force is wiped out, then Sun Ce will have no choice but to rely on him!"

At this time Zhu Hao said: "Why don't I persuade Sun Ce to surrender? If he surrenders without a fight, we can go straight to Shouchun. In this way, Yuan Shu will only have Shouchun as an isolated city. By then Even if Yuan Shu is unwilling to surrender, his subordinates will also surrender!"

Liu Bei thought for a while and said, "Then please, Brother Wenming!"

Liu Bei also knew about the relationship between Zhu Hao and Sun Ce. If he could really instigate Sun Ce's rebellion, the war could end as soon as possible. This is very important for the current big man!
Jiujiang County, Hefei County!
As soon as Sun Ce led the army to station in Hefei, his subordinates reported the visit of the envoys of the Han army.

Sun Ce asked his subordinates to invite someone over!
Seeing Sun Ce, who was tall, tall, and tall, Zhu Hao was pleasantly surprised and said, "It really looks like Wentai, it's almost carved out of the same mold!"

Sun Ce was also surprised that the envoy knew his father.

"Brother Wen Wen, why did you come here?" Cheng Pu who was on the side looked at Zhu Hao in surprise and said.

Cheng Pu was the first general to pursue Sun Jian. He also met Zhu Hao in Luoyang City back then, so he easily recognized him!
Zhu Haodao: "I am a member of the general's army, so I naturally followed the general Jiang to the Jianghuai area!"

He turned his head and said to Sun Ce: "Your father worshiped my father as a teacher back then, so I'm still a senior at Wentai. You should call me Shibo!"

Sun Ce said without any doubt, "Shi Bo, now you have broken up with me and are hostile, please forgive Ce for not being able to salute!"

Zhu Hao sneered and said: "Where is the hostility coming from! I am a subject of a big man, but if you dare to say that you are not a subject of a big man, if you really dare to say such a thing, I will replace your father and expel you from the Sun's family. Assuming the title of Marquis of Wu Cheng, he is a courtier of the great man, not a courtier of the Yuan family!"

Sun Ce said helplessly: "My lord is also a courtier of the great man. Now the general sent troops to attack us. We have to resist. The uncle will not let us wait to die!"

Zhu Hao said: "Everyone in the world knows why the general attacked Yuan Shu. If Yuan Shu was a loyal subject of the great man, he would not have attacked Yangzhou when everyone in the world was working hard for the king. What he did was the behavior of a traitor!"

Sun Ce was at a loss for a while, Yuan Shu had done too many stupid things, and he couldn't justify himself for a while.

Sun Ce could only helplessly said: "Although the Son of Heaven is my monarch, my lord is also my monarch, and now the last general can only obey one side!"

In the Han Dynasty, there is a dual monarchy system, which is a bit like the knight system in the Middle Ages. It pays attention to my lord’s lord, not my lord. Of course, this is also flexible. Sun Ce is an honest person who won't jump around repeatedly!
Hearing this, Zhu Hao said angrily: "A pedantic view, Wentai is because of its allegiance to the Han Dynasty and fighting for the peace of the Han Dynasty, that your Sun family's current prestige is there!
"Wentai fought for the big man and died for loyalty. Aren't you tarnishing the reputation of your father's first life by what you are doing now? He is a loyal minister of the big man, and he died to put down the big man's rebellion. Do you want to be the big man's rebellion!"
