Chapter 50 Downstream defection

When the stern came under Deng Dang's flagship, Cen Guang stood firm as the deck trembled mutely. Since the side of the building ship was one foot higher than the stern, he had to raise his head and look around. Just then, Lou

Dozens of heads suddenly popped up on the side of the ship, seeming to be sizing up Cen Guang and his party. This made Cen Guang extremely nervous, straightening his back, holding the Zhongxing Sword tightly in his hand, and squinting his eyes to look at the expressions of the soldiers above.

Unfortunately, although the fog had become much thinner, it was still not enough for him to see clearly the expressions of the people on the boat. He could only see their vague outlines, as if they were talking to each other.

Fortunately, Cen Guang was already mentally prepared when he arrived, so although he was anxious, he was not anxious. He asked his entourage to announce his name loudly and handed over the token, saying that the military situation was urgent and he had to discuss something important with General Deng.

The soldiers on the boat had heard of Cen Guang's name and had seen Huang Quan's token, so they did not doubt that he was there. They quickly lowered the sampan from the side of the ship and called for Cen Guang and others to come up.

Cen Guang originally planned to bring more people on board the ship in order to directly control Deng Dang. However, after a little consideration, he felt that such an intention was too obvious and might alert others, so he temporarily changed his mind and let most of the people stay on the ship while he only

He took more than ten people onto the building boat.

After boarding the deck, the soldiers immediately led Cen Guang upstairs. When they reached the fourth floor, they could see a large flag with a yellow background and white edges erected high, with four big characters written on it: "

"Jiang Liu Han Tu", that was the imperial flag given to Deng Dang by the emperor after the Battle of Chengde, to show the importance of Jiangdong's promotion. Under the flag, several people gathered around a table and discussed something in front of each other.

There was a map on it, as if he was planning an advance and retreat route.

Deng Dang was tall and wearing a bright armor, which made him stand out among the crowd. When Cen Guang came, he was holding his forehead in thought with worry on his face. When he heard the footsteps, he immediately raised his head and looked over. There was clearly something in his eyes.

He felt uneasy and entangled, but he quickly covered it up. Instead, he put on a smile and hurried over to greet him, saying: "It's a war right now. Why is Captain Cen here? What's Mr. Huang's instruction?"

?"

Cen Guang did not answer immediately, but looked around carefully first and found that he had seen all the generals and subordinates here. Then he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands and said to Deng Dang: "Old General Deng, the two armies are currently at a stalemate.

, neither the enemy nor we can win in a short period of time, but from the overall situation, our army still has the upper hand. Therefore, the governor wondered if the veteran general could come forward to persuade him to surrender. With the reputation of the veteran general, he would definitely be able to break the enemy's will to fight."

Seeing the hesitant look on Deng Dang's face, Cen Guang felt murderous intention in his heart, but his face remained calm and he continued to persuade him: "The Sun family's rebellion has not surrendered yet, only because there is a supporting army like Zhou Yu.

As long as this battle can be won, Jianye will definitely surrender without a fight. What a great achievement! If the old general can successfully persuade him to surrender at this time, and the emperor will ask him in the future, it will definitely be the old general who first contributed to the pacification of Jiangnan! What is there?

But who is hesitant? Besides, if we continue to fight, we don’t know how many lives will be lost. The old general only cares about his former comrades, but he should not forget his love for his country."

These words obviously moved Deng Dang. Deng Dang lowered his head and looked down at his legs and feet. He didn't know how to answer for a moment. He could only say: "Let me think about it. Let me think about it."

But this attitude made Cen Guang extremely dissatisfied: The military order was like a mountain. If he was really a loyal minister, he would not push back and forth. However, he did not want to push too hard with his words. Instead, he quietly changed his posture and looked for someone who would not be discovered.

At an angle, the other hand touched the Zhongxing Sword at the waist, ready to draw the blade at any time. The air was cold and humid at this time, but Cen Guang's followers were sweating nervously. They were waiting for the commander's order.

But at the same time, I also hope that the general will not issue orders. After all, there are hundreds of soldiers patrolling on the deck of the ship alone.

Just when these people were silent, Cen Guang's followers, who were waiting quietly under the flagship, noticed something strange. Because the sound of rowing boats gradually came from the fog. At first, they couldn't tell the direction, and these elite Han soldiers stood up.

Wearing armor and holding swords, they looked around among the fleet. Finally, three cockroaches gradually emerged from the fog in the northwest. At first, the first cockroach carried the flag of the Han army, which made them relieved. But as the second and the third

Three sterns appeared, and they immediately became alert: these two ships were actually flying the flag of the Wu people.

The leader who led the way did not know that Cen Guang was coming, let alone that his own soldiers were right in front of him. When he reached the bottom of the flagship, he shouted upward: "Brothers! Governor Zhou has sent someone, come out to greet us!"

As soon as these words came out, the whole ship suddenly became noisy, and Cen Guang and Deng Dang who were above the building heard it clearly. Deng Dang was stunned at first, and raised his head before saying anything, but the first thing that caught his eye was Cen Guang

With a ferocious face, the sound of an extremely sharp sword cutting through the air was heard at the same time. In almost an instant, Deng Dang’s head fell to the ground. Not only did the rest of the people present not react, but Deng Dang’s own body was also unable to react.

After reacting, he still stood still, and blood immediately sprayed out, sprinkling like a rain of blood on Cen Guang's armor, the sword blade, and even his face.

Cen Guang mentioned Deng Dang's head and immediately shouted to the others present: "Who dares to move! You will suffer the same fate as this thief!" As soon as he finished speaking, the rest of his followers immediately rushed over with their swords drawn, and in a blink of an eye a confrontation was formed.

At this time, the deputy generals were so frightened that they were stunned and stiff, and they were all stunned and didn't know what to say. At this time, Cen Guang changed his color again, and said to Yan: "I believe that the internal collusion with the bandits was only done by Deng Dang. Everyone,

Now if we can work together to kill the thieves, what's the point of doing wrong?"

After that, Cen Guang saw that these people still didn't understand, and said angrily again: "You haven't ordered the attack yet!" These people who were held hostage by swords woke up from a dream, and immediately asked the soldiers to blow the attack trumpet, and at the same time gave verbal orders to the soldiers on the deck.

Said: "Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow!"

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, after the order was issued, the soldiers were not executed for a long time. They stood around the side of the ship. Although they still held bows and arrows in their hands, they looked hesitant. Only Cen

The two personal guards brought by Guang were trying to block the advance of Wu ships under the tower ship. When the officers pressed again, they only fired a sparse round of arrows, which was completely inaccurate.

At this time, a man walked out of the wooden roof of the Wu ship and stood on the bow of the stern. The soldiers on the upper boat looked over and saw that the man was majestic and stood like a withered pine. Although he was in the rain of arrows, he could not stand.

He didn't waver at all, and the most shocking thing was that the man was not wearing armor. He was only wearing a blue military uniform with a wide collar and a crimson cloak. He didn't seem to be on the battlefield. When the scorpion approached, Lou

The soldiers on the boat couldn't help but exclaimed. It turned out that they all recognized the man on the bow: it was the guerrilla general Han Dang!

Han Dang has been following Sun Jian in his expeditions from east to west forty years ago. He is now over seventy years old, with a full head of hair and gray temples. But the years have given him a strong and restrained temperament, which makes people fall in love with him at first sight.

He felt ashamed of himself, but his eyes were still as bright as they were during the Battle of Guangcheng. Because he was very senior in the army, there were almost no people in Wu who did not recognize him. Han Dang just raised his eyes and looked towards the building and boat.

, many soldiers did not dare to take any action.

Facing the two stern ships in front of him that were trying to block him, Han Dang almost didn't care at all. He glanced at the ship and immediately named a few officers and shouted to them: "Only two ships, I'll get you on board."

Thousands of people were frightened? Why don't you quickly fire arrows!" When those people heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, but the morale of the soldiers on the deck was greatly boosted, and they immediately opened their bows and fired arrows at Cen Guang's stern. It was like a sudden attack without warning.

Yu, Cen Guang's personal guards had no time to react, and iron arrows were nailed to every inch of the stern. Almost every soldier on the ship was stabbed like a hedgehog at this time, and they were almost invisible.

Modeled.

These scenes were clearly seen by Cen Guang, who was at the top. After the sampan was put down, Han Dang walked onto the building boat. The Wu people and soldiers rushed to rush over, followed by waves of cheers. Cen Guang

Suddenly knowing that the situation was over, he looked at the kidnapped lieutenants and knew that these people were obedient and that he could not prevent the Wu people from defecting. In anger, he immediately ordered his followers to kill all these officers, and then wiped the edge of his sword.

Place it across your neck.

The followers were shocked when they saw this, and they all grabbed Cen Guang and persuaded him to dive into the water and leave quickly, so that they could cover him. But Cen Guang shook his head slightly, smiled miserably at his subordinates and said: "If this battle fails, I'm afraid the army will not be able to return.

Jiangbei, I have promised the governor in advance that I will succeed, but now it is irreversible. I will be blamed for my death, so how can I have the face to continue living?" Then he said to a follower: "This sword in my hand is the sword of the late emperor.

, do not fall into the hands of thieves. After I die, you can either fight out and return this sword to Governor Huang, or sink this sword in the river!"

After saying that, Cen Guang stood in a pool of blood, holding the sword in his right hand, and stroking his hair with his left hand. After touching the position, he put the sword edge against his neck again, and then cut a large incision to the left along the direction of the sword blade.

Don't stop until it extends below the left earlobe.

At this time, Han Dang was already walking up among the Wu people. Amidst the chaotic footsteps, the followers seemed to still be able to hear the sound of their master's blood flowing. They did not dare to hesitate. Most of them took knives to the stairs to resist, except for one.

People cleaned up the mess amidst the sound of gold and iron. The follower cut off Cen Guang's head and wrapped it in a piece of linen cloth, and then wrapped it with the Zhongxing Sword. After doing all this, he jumped towards the river and made a huge splash.

Both the surface of the river and the surface of the river gradually became calmer, and there was no longer the confusion and noise.

But this tranquility was only temporary. Soon, the Wu people's bugle sounded again on Deng Dang's flagship, and then there was the sound of oars hitting the river. The building ship named "Feiyun" moved slowly

, sailed past a group of ships. Deng Dang’s soldiers, who had stopped watching, looked over and found that the flag of "Jiangliu Hantu" was no longer hanging on it, but a familiar Feiyu Tenglang flag. They immediately reacted

He came over and responded with the sound of trumpets, followed closely by the driving boats. Within three-quarters of an hour, almost all of Deng Dang's old troops had joined Han Dang's command and launched an attack on the Han warships on the flank.
