Chapter 269
At this moment, Sun Jing's mood is very complicated.
Although he was crowned by Sun Quan as a great general, he had no role in commanding the troops before. Even if he attacked Qiantang, Ding Feng and Sun Ben were the ones commanding the troops.
Therefore, he, the general with the highest official position in Soochow, actually does not have much real power.
Now taking over Jianye Defense, he is also a short general.
In the entire Jiangdong, he is the only military general who is still in Jianye City.
On the other hand, Sun Jiao on the opposite side, now General Wei under Liu Feng's command, ranks under the Great General, General Hussars, and Generals Chariots. He has a special status and is the absolute confidant of Prince Liu Feng.
Commanding five thousand tigers, he often followed Liu Feng to the battle!
Isn't this more at ease than a great general like him?
"Father, let's surrender the city. His Royal Highness will protect you as a chariot general and Marquis of Wucheng. With thousands of households in the city, my Sun family is still a relative of the big man." Sun Jiao's eyes are full. It's a pity that my father is nearly fifty years old and still has to lead the army to fight.
"Surrender?" Sun Jing laughed loudly, "Jiao'er, do you still remember what your father said when he asked you and Huan'er to go to Jingzhou?"
Sun Jiao's eyes were red, "My child remembers."
"After the two of us left home, we set up our own lintels."
"Don't insult Jiangdong Sun's family style, and have nothing to do with Wuzhong Sun's. They are just side branches, and you can no longer call yourself a direct descendant of the main family."
"Now that your elder brother is also in Jingzhou, he is already satisfied as a father." As he spoke, Sun Jing glanced at the lieutenant beside him. His eldest son, Sun Hao, was the only one among his sons who was by his side at the moment.
"Jiao'er, let's go back and do things by your lord's side. Since you are General Wei and an extremely human minister, you must do your duty faithfully."
"For father."
"After all, I can't bear to part with the Sun family."
"If you die for your father, don't be sad or angry."
"Here." Sun Jiao was already crying bitterly at this moment, and was dumbfounded when he saw the tiger soldiers in the army behind.
When my own general drilled them, he was as strict as a tiger. How could such a person cry?
"Go back." Sun Jing watched Sun Jiao ride his horse away, and glanced at Sun Hao beside him, "Hao'er."
"Yes." Sun Hao clasped his fists slightly.
"Go and inspect the city, assist the patrols and yamen servants, and collect the secret letters in the city."
"Here."
Sun Hao walked down the city wall with a heavy expression.
He still remembered what his father said to him when he took him to drink beside the city wall after the fight last night.
"If you can't do it, just be loyal to your father and the Sun clan. You brothers, since Jiao'er and Yu'er have established a firm foothold in Jingzhou, you don't have to accompany this old man as father." Sun Jing is only in her 40s. In this era when most people can only live to be 60 or [-] years old, they are indeed considered old people.
"If my father ordered you to patrol the city, it's when the secret service in the city is about to cause trouble. You only need to turn a blind eye and close your eyes, and withdraw to our house. After the Shu army enters the city, you can take advantage of the situation to find Jiao'er, in this way, you can also keep your official position and the songs under your command."
Sun Hao walked back to the city without saying a word, until late at night, he took the soldiers under his command to wander around the city.
Until he met Zhang Xiu.
"General Zhang Xiu, why are you here?" Seeing the hundreds of armored soldiers behind Zhang Xiu, Sun Hao frowned slightly.
"It turned out to be General Sun." Zhang Xiu stepped forward to greet him, "Why don't you take a step to talk, brother?"
Sun Hao glanced around, pressed his hands behind him, and all the soldiers retracted their weapons.
He followed Sun Hao to the side, "Zhang Xiu, what the hell are you doing?"
Zhang Xiu suddenly showed a token from under his sleeve.
"Dark guard?"
As soon as Sun Hao's expression changed, he subconsciously drew out the saber from his waist, but Zhang Xiu stretched out his hand to hold it down.
"Zhang Xiu, you traitor, your whole family lives on His Majesty's salary, why do you do such a rebellious thing?" Sun Hao glared at Zhang Zhao angrily.
His three younger brothers were all officials in Jingzhou, it was his Sun clan's business, and they were invited by Sun Shangxiang, even Sun Quan didn't dare to say anything.
Besides, if the Sun clan rebelled, they would fight over and over again, wouldn't they all be surnamed Sun?
But you Zhang Xiu, the son of Zhang Zhao rebelled, what's the matter?
How dare a subject dare to rebel against the Sun clan?
"General Sun Hao, don't get angry. I'm here to go to the south gate to persuade the general to surrender."
"If my father sees you showing this token, he will kill you." Sun Hao snorted coldly, and looked at Zhang Xiu with a smiling face, but he was not in a hurry to do it.
"But this is the only chance for the general to survive."
"What do you mean?"
"With the great general's stamina, if the city is destroyed, he will die in a deadly battle. The young general would not want to see this scene."
"That's natural."
"His Royal Highness, he also didn't want to see this scene, so he ordered the secret guards in the city to save the old general."
Sun Hao's complexion improved a little. At least, Liu Feng, as a niece and son-in-law, treats Sun Jing pretty well.
"Later, please ask the young general to take me to the top of the city to pay a visit to the old general. My son-in-law will break through the city gate without the help of the general, how about it?"
"Even if you make a sudden move and capture my father, he will bite his tongue and kill himself." Sun Hao shook his head and smiled wryly.
"Then told the old general that if he died, the Soochow Emperor in the palace would probably die too."
Sun Hao smiled wryly, and didn't care about Zhang Xiu's nonsense at the moment.
"Someone wants to know why he, Liu Feng, values our lineage so much."
"Jiangdong's Sun family has been handed down for thousands of years since Wu's famous general, Sun Wu, and is the number one general in Wuzhong."
"It should be passed on for thousands of generations. Now Liu Xi, the eldest grandson of the emperor, also has half of the blood of the Sun family."
"Now our Shu army has three Generals Sun leading the troops, which is not enough."
"The three of you, if you want to achieve the four levels of Sizheng, Sizhen, Si'an, and Siping, it will take five or ten years."
"In court, the position of the princess is not secure."
"You know, yesterday Jiangling sent a message that the crown prince's side concubine Ma Shi gave birth to a son, who was named Liu Yi by His Royal Highness the crown prince."
Sun Hao's face was cloudy and uncertain, "So, you Jiangdong ministers who are close to my sister Shangxiang, do you want my nephew to be the crown prince?"
"That's right." Zhang Xiu bowed to Sun Hao.
"I also ask the major general to complete it."
Sun Hao was silent for a few breaths, then sighed, "This reasoning still doesn't make sense, let's invite my family members here in a carriage and bring my son, maybe my father can see his grandson's face and surrender. "
"Otherwise, with his old man's temper, he really won't be able to persuade him."
A smile appeared on Zhang Xiu's face again, "Then act according to the general's plan."
