Chapter 146 Siege
~.-~ ------..
Hearing Sun Ce’s arrangement, Taishi Ci was stunned again and asked in confusion: “Sun Bofu, you just let me leave so confidently! Aren’t you afraid that I will not go back then?”
Sun Ce smiled confidently and said, "If Ziyi, you are still an ideal person and want to contribute to the people of the Han Dynasty. Then, after you have seen the current situation in Lujiang, I believe you will make a decision.
Of course, this general only has one requirement, and he must read the changes in Lujiang before making a decision. If you still want to join another wise leader after reading it, the general's people will never stop you.
As for the guards who accompany you to Lujiang, they will not be your opponent. If you want to leave, no one can stop you! They are just accompanying you, otherwise you will not see anything at all. There is no intention of surveillance on you, so don’t make things difficult for them!
Haha, OK, I will wait for you to come back! Go and wash, you've become a clay figure!"
After Sun Ce said that, he asked Song Qian behind him to take Taishi Ci to clean up himself. But he went back to the Central Army tent. Taishi Ci looked at Sun Ce's majestic back with a daze.
He murmured to himself: "What kind of person is this Sun Bofu? Is this person worthy of his effectiveness? He is so confident that he will stay?
What a hateful guy. If I had any dissatisfaction, I would have gone to Xuzhou immediately. It would be better to let him be so proud and learn some lessons."
Zhao Yun, who was passing by Taishi Ci, heard his whisper clearly. After a moment of pause, he knew that Taishi Ci was still very confused.
He was also a little curious about Sun Ce who had tried his best to capture this man and was said to be going to surrender to Liu Bei.
He took the initiative to speak to a stranger for the first time: "Bo Fu is a wonderful person, although he is not considered to be a substitute for him. However, judging from what he did in front of him, he is a maverick and crazy lord.
But I also saw it clearly. He is sincere to his family, subordinates, and the people! In his territory, every person can truly live and work in peace and contentment, without being poisoned by the fire of war, and without being suffering from hunger and cold.
You can go and see, everyone's smiles are stable and sincere that can only be seen in the prosperous times. Because as long as they work hard to do their part, they don't have to worry about the food that will fill their stomachs tomorrow. Lujiang has food.
As for the Xuande Gong who is now in Xuzhou, although he loves the people as his son and is tolerant in nature, he seems to be unable to give the people hope for a happy life!"
Taishici ignored Song Qian's greeting and was surprised to see the handsome and extraordinary general beside him.
He quickly clasped his fists and asked, "Oh! I don't know what the general calls him! The general seems to be very familiar with Duke Xuande? Could it be that he has an old age with Xuande!"
Zhao Yun smiled slightly: "I am going to Zhao Yun to temporarily serve as the cavalry commander of the Jiangdong Army. When he was in Jizhou, he was a colleague of Duke Xuande. The general also intended to serve Duke Xuande. However, he came to Jiangnan because of his family.
Okay, Yongyi is anxious. After Ziyi washes, you can come and talk in the tent!"
This is the first time Zhao Yun took the initiative to invite others to his account. It seems that he also valued Taishi Ci more. If Sun Ce, who had already walked away, heard Zhao Yun's uncle comment on him, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Because Zhao Yun, a familiar person on both sides, explained it. In addition, Taishi Ci tried it a little and knew that Zhao Yun's martial arts were even better than him.
I completely believed Zhao Yun's words. It is hard to imagine that a person without a child could reach such a level of martial arts at such a young age.
He has even broken through to the sacred realm and understood to the trusted Taishici that those who can surpass themselves will not be easy to find opponents in this world.
On the north side of Shenting Ridge, Liu Yao listened with a grim expression on his face and said that he had received a reward from Yi: "Lord, there was a scout just now. He really saw Taishi Ci in Sun Ce's camp!"
Liu Yao looked at Shi Yi with some surprise and expectation, and asked with a heavy tone: "Ziyi! He is in Sun Ce's camp? What's wrong with him? But he was injured and captured!"
Shi Yi glanced at the lord who looked expectant. He wanted to answer that one of the lords was the lord. However, Yi was loyal to his duties, but he could not violate his principles of being a human being. He could not deceive his lord on such important information.
"Lord, the scout returns Taishici's clothes are a little embarrassed. However, he has a very harmonious conversation with the enemy general Sun Ce. Moreover, his hands and feet are not tied up. He! He is the Sun Ce military camp who was riding a horse!"
It was Yi's latest information that finally confirmed the fact that Taishi Ci had surrendered to the enemy. Liu Yao finally cut off his last expectation for Taishi Ci. This village party finally disappointed Liu Yao.
When entering the Jiangdong Army camp, Taishici, who was still confused, would never have thought that his whereabouts had been discovered by the scouts of Liu Yao's army and spread throughout the army.
The reputation of the betrayer that Taishici tried hard to avoid could no longer be freed from Liu Yao's army.
In the next two months, the Jiangdong Army's army did not make any major moves. Sun Ce just ordered Gan Ning and the Chao County naval army to block the river surface outside Dantu. He led 30,000 troops to use the terrain of Shentingling to form a surround Liu Yao's 30,000 troops.
Liu Yao originally hurriedly retreated to Dantu, and relied on the terrain of Shenting Ridge to make Sun Ce's army suffer heavy losses. However, the terrain is also a double-edged sword. If you block other people's origins, you will also cut off your own path.
If Dantu has a large rear, it doesn't matter, so it will naturally be able to get sufficient support. But after Dantu, there is the river, and the east is Shenting Ridge that stretches to the banks of the river. The west is the territory occupied by the Jiangdong Army.
Liu Yao's 30,000 army trapped himself into a small Jedi. The Dantu faced the river and was a front-line city facing Jiangbei, so there was not much grain reserve in the city.
There is nothing wrong with guarding in the short term, but if you want to stick to it for a long time, you can't support it.
If you want to feed so many soldiers and people, it is impossible to complete the task with the little food in Dantu City.
Although Wujun, which is not far apart, is sufficient food and grass, it is impossible to deliver food in between Shenting Ridge and Dajiang. Xu Gong has sent grain ships several times to support Liu Yao, but they are all intercepted by Gan Ning, Zhou Tai and others on the river.
Xu Gong, who was dissatisfied, sent his only naval army to fight, but was led by Gan Ning and dozens of new sea ships, using ultra-long-range catapults and crossbows to make a fuss.
It was almost completely annihilated in just one battle, and Xu Gong had the only little naval force in his hands. (..)
