Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 896 Zhou Yu’s Monopoly 2
In Xindu, soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were frequently mobilized, and they tended to gather northward. During the time when Sun Ce was recuperating in Poyang, Sun Quan used his power to eliminate dissidents, and had already controlled more than 5 Jiangdong Army near Xindu. More than 4 generals and schools in Kuaiji, Lujiang, Wujun and other places are now facing the threat of Sun Quan, and many people have expressed their willingness to support Sun Quan in running Jiangdong.

Since Sun Ce swept across Jiangdong and rectified the army, the situation in Jiangdong has been booming. Up to now, Jiangdong has a total of 10,000+ land and water troops, including more than 8 sailors, more than 10,000 infantry, and less than [-] cavalry.You know, this is the capital that Sun Ce has accumulated in just a few years. Compared with Liu Biao, his strength may not be enough, but Jiangdong has such a large territory, and it is very convenient to station [-]+ people. There are hundreds of thousands of troops, but they are scattered all over the country. Now they are threatened by Gongsun Xuyi, and they can't gather an army to resist in a short time.

Zhou Yu marched for more than a day, and now he has entered the territory of Xindu. He only brought 2000 brave soldiers from the personal guards. After all, he did not come to fight. His goal was to take away the family members of important generals and the detained generals.He didn't dare to tell Sun Ce about this, because he knew Sun Ce too well. There are only two people in this world who can make Sun Ce bow his head. One is Sun Jian and the other is Gongsun Xu. After Sun Jian died in battle, Sun Ce's temper sometimes changed. He will become more irritable, and once he encounters troublesome things, he may kill someone at any time.

Therefore, Zhou Yu knew very well that if he knew what Sun Quan was doing in Xindu, Sun Ce would probably do something like fratricide.The title of Little Overlord of Jiangdong is not boasted, it is obtained by Sun Ce's sword and gun. All the enemy soldiers who have seen Sun Ce on the battlefield are afraid of Sun Ce's ferocity and violence, and all of this is not pretended by Sun Ce Yes, that was his nature.

Sun Quan conspired to seize military power, detain important generals in the army, and imprison the generals' family members. No one could bear these actions, even if he and Sun Ce were brothers.As a good brother, Zhou Yu didn't want to embarrass his sworn brother, so he chose to face all this alone. He believed that Sun Quan was just the beginning, as long as he led the army to arrive, Sun Quan would probably let him go.

"Come and stop..." On the city tower, the defender looked at Zhou Yu's two thousand soldiers and shouted: "There is a general's warrant, and those who don't have a warrant are not allowed to lead troops into the city."

"I am Zhou Yu from Eastern Wu." Zhou Yuce immediately stepped forward and shouted: "I am here to carry out a mission under the orders of my lord, and open the city gate quickly. You cannot afford to delay my lord's important affairs."

"General Zhou, I already saw that it was you." On the tower, a general shouted: "However, you are not in charge of this place. Without my lord's warrant, no army can enter the city. You have to think clearly."

"Your lord, Sun Quan?" Zhou Yu said angrily, "This is Jiangdong, and it is my elder brother Sun Ce's territory. When will it be his turn to be the master? What are you? How dare you stop me here? Who gave you the courage? Well, three months ago, you weren't even a lieutenant colonel, how did you become a city gate guard now, and who promoted you.

My Jiangdong athlete, which one is not the result of bloody battles on the battlefield? Only military achievements can be promoted. This is something that my Jiangdong disciples know. Have you ever been on the battlefield? Have you ever made contributions? What qualifications do you have? Put on this armor and show off your might here. "

Several roars made Pan Zhang unable to raise his head when he retorted.It is true that he has no military exploits, and he has almost never been on the battlefield. He is able to sit in this position entirely because he was born as a soldier of Sun Quan and has done a lot of things for Sun Quan. A school lieutenant can't get along.

"I'm also a child from Jiangdong, so I don't want to fight with you." Pan Zhang thought for a while and replied, "Zhou Yu, you have committed a rebellion, and you have already committed a capital crime. It is still too late to repent. My lord is kind, and I will definitely not argue with you." However, if you persist in your obsession, this place is your grave. It’s okay for you to want to die, but don’t implicate the two thousand brothers behind you. Also, if you don’t think about yourself, don’t you think about your family? ? What about the families of these brothers behind you? Don’t you also consider their life and death? "

"Pan Zhang, you are so brave, you dare to threaten me." Zhou Yu said angrily, "Whoever gave you the order, who gave you the power, three drums, if you don't open the city gate, I will kill you!" , then I will see how you explain to Sun Quan."

"General, my lord has ordered you not to use force." On the tower, a captain leaned into Pan Zhang's ear and said, "If there is too much commotion, the aristocratic families in the city will not agree, and Zhou Yu is very popular in Jiangdong. The soldiers in the army also support him very much, if we kill him now, the soldiers in the army may mutiny."

"Then bring him in." Pan Zhang snorted coldly: "Order the archers to prepare. As long as Zhou Yu is dead, we can say that the white ones are black. What are you afraid of? When the time comes, there will be no evidence for death."

The gate of the city opened slowly, and Pan Zhang rode out to salute and said, "General Zhou, you also know that this is the new capital. If you bring so many people here at once, I will definitely not let you enter the city. If you have something If you want to tell my master, you can enter the city by yourself, as for these brothers, I am afraid they will stay outside the city."

"They are my personal guards, why can't they enter the city." Zhou Yu sneered, "Pan Zhang, you don't understand military affairs. I don't blame you. I'll tell you now. One-tenth of the personal guards, capped at [-], I commanded no less than [-] land and water troops in Jiangdong, and now only [-] personal guards are needed to protect, is there still a problem?

Don't mess with me, Sun Quan asked you to be a general. Is this how you embarrass him?I don’t know what to say, brothers, prepare to enter the city,,,,,,”

Pan Zhang stood aside angrily. Zhou Yu was a man of great wisdom and eloquence. There was no general in Jiangdong who could compare with him. Therefore, Pan Zhang couldn't refute Zhou Yu's reprimand.

"Send the letter to the lord, and prepare to do it." Pan Zhang said to the soldiers around him: "Zhou Yu led the army privately to make trouble, to kill the friendly army, and to try to assassinate the lord and the lord's family members. Hmph, just because of this, he killed Zhou Yu." , others dare not say nonsense, go, the lord is waiting."

Seeing Zhou Yu leading two thousand soldiers into the city, Pan Zhang sneered. In his opinion, Zhou Yu was just throwing himself into the trap. There were more than [-] defenders in the city, all of whom were under the control of his lord Sun Quan. In his hand, if he counts with his heart or not, Zhou Yu will definitely stumble this time.

Tens of miles away, a team of more than 4000 cavalry is galloping. The guards under Sun Ce are all from cavalry. They have experienced the most difficult battles with him on the grasslands. Their specialty is rapid marching. Now he only wants to Chasing Zhou Yu back, and the rest, he hasn't thought that much yet.
