Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 359: Collapse of Moling

"Lu Xun, how many military horses do we have now?"

Finally, in this heavy atmosphere, Sun Quan spoke.

Lu Xun, who was standing at the front, had his head raised the whole time. He stepped forward and said, "Lord Wu, with the defeated soldiers we have gathered, we still have about 10,000 soldiers."

Ten thousand soldiers and horses.
Ten thousand soldiers and horses!
With only 10,000 soldiers and horses, how can we fight against Liu Bei?

Sun Quan's expression changed from expressionless to fierce, and he shouted: "Ten thousand soldiers and horses? Relying on these people, when Liu Bei comes, it is better to surrender directly!"

After saying this, he looked up at the officials, and seeing that they all had their heads down, he said coldly, "I wonder if it will be effective if you go back to recruit soldiers?"

That’s right, in fact, only Gu Yong and Lu Ji returned to Wu County because Sun Quan asked everyone to go back to their hometown to recruit soldiers.

But under the current situation, there are too many people who have left and never returned!
There are very few people like Gu Yong who can come back.

As for recruiting troops.
Where is the person?
Even if there is someone, they can no longer let Sun Quan do anything to them!

They were beaten to a pulp the first time they went up for battle. If they go up again, they will definitely be beaten to a pulp as well!

Who is still willing to work for Sun Quan?

To put it bluntly, wars are fought for merit!

You always lose battles, you don't get any merit, and you even lose your life. Who would want to recruit troops for you?
When Sun Quan asked the question, naturally no one said a word.

"boom!"

Sun Quan saw that after he asked, there was silence in the field, and no one said a word. His face changed, and he waved his hand to clear the sundries on the table, and angrily asked: "Now Liu Bei has come to kill you, but you are not helping, why?"

Naturally, no one could answer Sun Quan's question.

Sun Quan became even more angry when he saw this, and felt that all the people in front of him had surrendered one by one!
But then he shouted: "Why don't you say anything? But you have been cooperating with Liu Bei for a long time, waiting for the time when I am defeated?"

When Gu Yong heard this, he realized that Sun Quan had gone completely crazy.

After hearing this, those who were willing to fight to the death for him would probably be disheartened.

But think about it, it's normal for him to become what he is now.

After all, they had just captured Hefei and were in high spirits. Who would have thought that Liu Bei would suddenly attack at this time and the situation would take a turn for the worse.

Now Hefei is still in our hands, but Jiangdong is gone!

Under such a major change, everyone would have some emotional fluctuations, but Sun Quan looked a little crazy, which clearly showed that he was not a wise leader.

Now think about
Sun Quan, who grew up under the influence of his father and elder brother, is indeed not as talented and ambitious as Cao Cao and Liu Bei!

Gu Yong was thinking about all kinds of things when he heard a voice coming from the side.

"Wuhou!"

"In Jiangdong, we have already recruited soldiers many times, and there really is no one left!"

Gu Yong took a quick look and found that it was He Qi.

He Qi had been with Jiangdong for nearly twenty years. In the first year of Jian'an, when Sun Ce was expanding Jiangdong to Taimo, he recommended He Qi as a filial and incorruptible official after observing him.

In the following years, He Qi mostly fought against the Shanyue people, focusing on being a "Shanyue Killer".

But even if he was just fighting the Shanyue, He Qi was quite powerful! He made many contributions and was a great contributor to Jiangdong.

Normally, He Qi's words carried some weight, and Sun Quan respected him very much. But today, there was no question of respect or disrespect!

But Sun Quan's expression suddenly changed, and he said, "No one? Then when Liu Bei comes, do you want me to go into battle myself?"

He Qi really didn't know how to respond to this. He could only mumble, not knowing how to respond.

Fortunately, Sun Quan didn't want to keep staring at He Qi. He relaxed his expression and looked at Gu Yong beside him and said, "Lord Yuan Tan, how are you doing?"

"It's been a month since I went back, but I haven't recruited even a single person?"

The hall was packed with people, so Gu Yong naturally knew why they were staring at him.

Isn't it said that the compromise with Liu Bei and Lu Ji was the most profound?

Now that Lu Ji is not around, Sun Quan will naturally keep an eye on him.

However, Gu Yong was also a shrewd man, so he stepped forward and bowed, "Replying to Lord Wu, I went back to the county and took great pains to finally recruit fifty young and strong men."

Fifty people?

When Sun Quan heard Gu Yong say fifty people in a serious tone, he was so angry that he almost laughed!
Either there is no one here, or there are only fifty people. Are you just sending away beggars?
Upon hearing this, Sun Qun slammed the table and said, "In one month, you only recruited fifty people? Yuan Tan, you really took a lot of effort!"

Gu Yong could naturally tell that Sun Quan was being sarcastic, but he was not panicked at all.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just the fifty people he brought with him, it could even be said that they were the largest number of people present.

The remaining.
Probably all zero!
Therefore, Gu Yong was not panicked at all. He just said to Sun Quan with a peaceful face: "Thank you, Lord Wu. This is what I should do."

Good guy.
Gu Yong pretended not to hear Sun Quan's sarcasm and continued speaking.

But doing so would be somewhat disrespectful to Sun Quan.

Everyone was slightly surprised. They didn't expect Gu Yong to be so disrespectful to Sun Quan.

Sun Quan looked even uglier!

He cursed in his heart: "Gu Yong! You think I don't know about the relationship between you and Xing Daorong! Xing Daorong is my mortal enemy, but you have a close relationship with him!"

Although Sun Quan was crazy, he knew that now was not the time to take action against Gu Yong.

After all, I have no evidence!
Does that mean we have to arrest people just because they have connections with Liu Bei's army?
Then he and Liu Bei were also married.
Of course Sun Quan could do whatever he wanted. If he was really filled with hatred, he would force Gu Yong to suffer.

However, doing so would be too embarrassing, and the entire Jiangdong would probably abandon me.

Although Sun Quan was a little crazy, he was not crazy to this extent.

Even though he cursed in his heart, he could only keep a cold face. He stopped looking at Gu Yong and turned to look at the others and said, "Although we can't mobilize troops today, we are not without a way to deal with Liu Bei."

"Now I have no choice but to go north in person to seek help from Cao Cao!"

!

When everyone heard that Sun Quan was going to go find Cao Cao in person, they were all shocked!
How could the lord personally deliver this to the door?
He Qi hurried forward and said, "Lord Wu, think twice. Cao Cao is not moving his troops right now. I'm afraid there is internal turmoil. If you go, I'm afraid you will be in danger."

When He Qi said this, he was really concerned about Sun Quan, but unfortunately, he didn't know what he did to touch Sun Quan's sore spot, making him so angry!
"Think twice, think twice, and think again. Liu Bei has already taken his seat. I can only think about why I should rely on incompetent people like you!"
