Chapter 626: If they won’t retreat, why should I?
Sun Quan was carried to the toilet by the fierce soldiers in the courtyard.
The yard is not big. After bypassing the lobby and turning into the backyard, the toilet is in the corner.
Sun Quan was wailing all the way, and he was still holding on to the strong man beside him, as if he didn't intend to let go.
Under such circumstances, several people finally sent Sun Quan to the pit in exhaustion.
"Wu Hou...please?"
Sun Quan seemed to squeeze out a forced smile and jumped down from the arms of several people——
He turned around, as if he wanted to say something, but the strong men suddenly heard an unusual commotion.
"Thank you for your hard work... You guys have taken good care of me these past few days. I thought that when the war is over and I return to Jiangdong, I can work with these brave men again... It's just that I don't have time to accompany you.
Delayed."
As Sun Quan spoke, the painful expression on his face suddenly disappeared.
The swordsmen, who instinctively realized that something was wrong, quickly drew their swords and prepared to control Sun Quan, but they did not expect that Sun Quan would simply turn sideways... At this moment, the door of the ordinary toilet in the distance suddenly opened.
Somehow, several black-clad and masked uninvited guests suddenly rushed out...
"Not good! Enemy attack! Go and notify..."
The leader of the swordsman and axemen exclaimed. He called on his companions to hurry up and notify the large troops in the courtyard... As long as someone can return to the compound, not to mention the swordsman in the private house, he will be responsible for guarding Sun Quan in the entire alley.
All the swordsmen and axemen will rush here quickly.
At that time... no matter what tricks Sun Quan uses, he will not be able to escape from their eyes.
It's a pity...the idea is great, but the reality is very cruel.
Pan Zhang held the long blade in his hand, sprinted forward, and struck a backhand chop across his head, killing the swordsman in front on the spot.
The remaining three people had no intention of resisting. They immediately decided to escape separately and quickly convey the news. However, Pan Zhang seemed to have expected such a situation.
On the courtyard wall and on the roof, men in black descended from the sky and killed the fleeing swordsman to the ground without even giving them a chance to shout.
All the changes happened in just a thought, and four guards died on the spot. Pan Zhang realized that there was no danger around him, and he led all the soldiers to fall in front of Sun Quan——
Pan Zhang burst into tears, self-blame and guilt filled his heart. He kowtowed to Sun Quan, but Sun Quan smiled helplessly.
"A real man won't shed tears easily, so why are you crying! Aren't I still fine?"
"My lord... my lord... it is Pan Zhang who is cowardly. Because he could stand up when my lord was suffering, Pan Zhang deserves to die! You... you punish me!"
"Go, go, go! Kill all those swordsmen and axemen who have not given me any good looks in the past few days. You can receive rewards and punishments as you wish, but wait until we leave Wancheng!"
Sun Quan didn't feel how miserable and wronged he was, but...he had grown so old, and this was the first time he saw a Soochow people who really didn't give him any face. If such a person stayed in Soochow, as long as he was still alive, Sun Quan would be...
He felt uncomfortable, so he found an excuse and sent Pan Zhang away directly.
——
A bloody fight took place in Osmanthus Alley in Wancheng today.
The people near the alley seemed to be frightened by the sound of clanking swords in the alley. With Osmanthus Alley as the center, no one within a radius of several miles dared to come out to investigate the situation.
This silent bloody battle lasted for half a day.
In the evening, the inspection tour of Soochow in Wancheng finally discovered the miserable scene of Osmanthus Alley, which is like a hell on earth.
Only then did the bloody battle that took place in Osmanthus Alley today become clear to the army.
It's just that... the Soochow generals guarding Wancheng at the moment don't seem to know the reason for this bloody battle, and it's even less likely that their lord Sun Quan was not taken to the front line by Zhang Zhao in the past two days.
Just stay in this alley, only one door separates you from them——
In short, the tragedy at Osmanthus Alley was finally fooled by the generals who defended the city. After all, these dead soldiers looked left and right, and they were not dressed as the main army. When someone came to identify the corpses, everyone shook their heads.
"I hope it's not someone with a distinguished status..."
Saying this, the blood in Osmanthus Alley gradually faded away under the wash of clear water, and finally became invisible——
…
The sun has set, and the setting sun is like blood, indicating that a tragic war is actually taking place in Hefei in the distance.
Sun Quan, who was finally able to escape, was escorted by Pan Zhang and his group of personal guards, and finally escaped and came to a village ten miles away from Wancheng.
The people in Zhuangzi did not make things difficult for them. After explaining their intentions to them, Sun Quan and his party settled in the village.
It was late at night. After washing himself and changing into neat clothes, Sun Quan looked at the dim sky and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The lights in the room were dim. Pan Zhang brought a bowl of hot soup from outside the yard and handed it to Sun Quan respectfully. However, Sun Quan smiled and did not accept it - what he cared about more was actually the war in Hefei:
"Lord, you'd better drink. I haven't seen you in the past few days, and I've lost a lot of weight...Hey...I..."
Pan Zhang still blamed himself, but Sun Quan stopped him many times.
"General Pan, where are we going next?"
Pan Zhang put the hot soup on the stone table aside, cupped his hands and replied:
"Back to my lord, the general has asked someone to prepare the horses. If everything goes well, we can return to Lujiang early tomorrow morning... The war on the front line is still tense and will not end overnight. Zhang Zhao has ulterior motives... We must notify him as soon as possible
The Grand Governor and Mr. Zijing... it’s time to discuss how to deal with Zhang Zhao and those people behind him who have evil intentions!”
Pan Zhang almost said this through gritted teeth - who knows how much he has been suffering these past two days?
Zhang Zhao was powerful, but he never thought that with the support of the gentry group, Zhang Zhao would dare to put Sun Quan under house arrest - before, he thought that Sun Quan was exaggerating to compare himself to the emperor Liu Xie. If someone heard this, he would inevitably
Being chewed.
However, reality is far more magical than imagination and stories. In the blink of an eye, Zhang Zhao led his troops to imprison Sun Quan, leaving Sun Quan in an even more uncomfortable situation than Liu Xie. This made Pan Zhang clearly realize that if he waited any longer, Zhang Zhao would
If he dared to put Sun Quan under house arrest, Zhang Zhao would dare to kill Sun Quan next.
However, after listening to Pan Zhang's words, Sun Quan shook his head:
"Zhang Zhao... must be punished... He dared to imprison me, which has already touched my bottom line, but... now is not the time for us to abandon the soldiers on the front line and leave Hefei like deserters-"
"Lord... then... what do you mean..."
"General Pan, please go down. Early tomorrow morning, we will go to Hefei and return to the army. I, Sun Quan, have always wanted to live and die with the soldiers... They haven't retreated yet, why should I retreat!"
