Spoiling History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Sun Quan had been exchanging letters with Lu Meng, and he was well aware of the war situation in Jingnan.

Jingnan's progress is in an orderly manner, and the blueprint for demarcating the river and governing it outlined for him by Lu Meng and Lu Yi is slowly becoming a reality step by step.

Although Jiangling is difficult to attack, once Jingnan is completely destroyed, Jiangdong will have enough capital to carry out a long confrontation.

If Jiangling can hold on for one month, can it hold on for half a year? Can you hold on for a year?

When Jiangling is defeated, the power of crossing the river will take hold, and Jiangdong can sit back and relax.

Under such circumstances, Sun Quan could not restrain his complacency in the end, so he invited guests to the high platform and filled the wine barracks with his relatives and friends.

The smoke curled up in the stove, and I was slightly drunk.

A chamberlain hurried in, approached the Lord of Jiangdong and whispered a few words.

A few words are like a basin of cold water, dispelling all the charming thoughts that arise after the drunkenness rises.

Impossible! Sun Quan's first reaction was this, but then he stopped speaking, waved his hand behind him and turned into the back hall.

The sudden disappearance of the host of the party did not cause any disturbance.

After entering the back hall, Lu Yi saw that Sun Quan had taken off a sword from the wall.

Lu Yi remembered that the original owner of this sword was Sun Jian, the Polu general. Although it was not a sword, it had witnessed the rise of the Sun family in Jiangdong, so it was of great significance.

It's just that this sword has been hung up since Jiangxia was defeated, and it was not taken down even during the expedition to Hefei last year. Now...

The chamberlain said that a naval force was coming, with the words Liu Guan on the ship, and a warship that was extremely large, like a treasure ship.

The treasure ship is Sun Quan's naval vehicle. It has a huge hull and is expensive to build.

But because the hull is too large, it travels slowly. Sun Quan basically uses it as a floating palace, but he didn't expect Liu Bei...

A look of surprise flashed across Lu Yi's face, but he understood in an instant:

There must be something wrong in Jiangxia. The navy crossed the border and attacked Jianye directly to break the siege of Jingnan.

Sun Quan nodded and began to put on his armor. Lu Yi also hurriedly stepped forward to help.

While changing clothes, Sun Quan analyzed methodically:

Bo Yan is right. If this navy appears so quietly, it must be avoiding Zi Ming and not fighting.

I want to use a sudden attack to disrupt the enemy's position.

Sun Quan also made up his mind:

Bo Yan quickly compiled a letter with my seal, and sent his trusted followers to circumambulate Baidu Mountain to avoid the traitors, and the navy sent it to Ziming.

Lu Yi nodded, and even drew a piece of paper. While studying the ink, he looked at Sun Quan, his eyes asking what he wanted to write.

Instruct Lu Ziming to step up the attack. Don't worry about Jianye. Sun Quan sneered.

The intentions of this navy were too straightforward, and Sun Quan thought it was just a desperate move.

The more eager they are, the more it shows that Jiangdong has a huge advantage in Jingzhou!

At this time, Sun Quan, who was only in his early thirties, also became angry. There was a reason for the failure of Hefei. Do you really think that he is an incompetent person who can come up to rub the tiger's beard?

Lu Yi was stunned for a moment, but in the end he didn't say anything. He bowed his head and finished writing, stamped Sun Quan's seal on it, and then hurried out to find a capable messenger.

Sun Quan, who had finished dressing up, returned to the venue. This outfit finally woke up a group of people who were drunk and staggering. Some people had already smelled an unusual smell.

There was a clever man who seemed to think that Marquis Sun was going to play a new trick. He came over with a smile and was about to make fun of him, but Sun Quan kicked him to the ground mercilessly.

So the banquet finally sobered up.

The thieves in the Navy are doing dangerous things in order to intimidate Jianye and make the frontline troops withdraw.

While saying this, Sun Quan slowly drew out his sword.

This was not a sword. The sound of unsheathing it was hoarse and unpleasant, making the young men present hold their breaths and concentrate.

I believe that this battle is related to the survival of Jiangdong's foundation, and the army in Jingnan cannot retreat even half a step!

Those who saw the wind and moved faster were already nodding frequently, but they didn't know whether they agreed with Sun Quan's words or the sword's edge, or with the soldiers who were everywhere around the banquet.

Sun Quan held the sword that once belonged to his father and brother, pointed the tip of the sword diagonally at the ground, and spoke in a slow but extremely firm voice:

Now that Jianye is in danger, we have the responsibility to defend the city.

Please come to the city with me and live or die with Jianye.

Lu Yi, who had arranged everything well, came back and saw this scene.

Although Lu Yi understood from the bottom of his heart that Marquis Sun wanted to avoid doing anything wrong while defending the city, Lu Yi was not happy with such drastic measures.

But after a few slanders in his heart, Lu Yi was able to understand the situation quite clearly and stood silently behind Sun Hou without saying a word.

Things progressed quite smoothly. Although a few young talents were weakened by the drinks, they still firmly climbed the city wall with the help of the soldiers, vowing to live and die with Jianye.

The leader, Sun Quan, hid behind the thickest parapet, looking at the extremely conspicuous silver bells and brocade sails in front of the huge ship. He felt angry, but his face became calmer.

Under Gan Gui's order, Jingzhou Navy approached the dock in an orderly manner, and then crossed over one by one.

The sight of the ships made all the young leaders in Jiangdong widen their eyes.

Living in Jiangdong, they are certainly no strangers to warships, but this is the first time they have seen this kind of crossbow moved to a warship.

It’s just that these young people who have lived in Jiangdong for a long time don’t quite understand:

This crossbow is so huge and placed next to the side of the ship. How to deal with the jumping gang?

But this doubt soon disappeared.

Following Gan Gui's order, only the sound of 噌噌噌 was heard, and then everyone felt the city wall under their feet shaking gently.

One of the thinner female walls has been shot through completely, and there are still several crossbow arrows that have penetrated halfway into the city wall, and the tails of the arrows are still trembling slightly when they are exposed.

There were also several giant crossbow arrows that shot over the city wall and penetrated the city gate building. One of the cornices was blown up, and there were still several big holes left in the middle.

The power of the crossbow was so frightening that Jiangdong's talents immediately obeyed and bowed down, wishing they could dig a hole in the city wall and get in.

But Gan Gui also complained fiercely:

This place is located in the hinterland of Jiangdong. Marquis Sun actually built such a strong city. Who could he defend against?

Immediately, Gan Gui did not hesitate and ordered the ships to agree on an order with each other and conduct a continuous attack strategy.

He also gave a special order to shoot the strong crossbow as far as possible towards the top of the city wall.

After the Battle of Jingxiang, Guan Yu summarized the usage of several giant crossbows. The most typical one is to shoot at the wall indiscriminately to break the enemy's courage when breaking Fancheng, and then climb up to break the enemy's city.

But Gan Gui felt that in terms of bravery, her father was inferior to General Guan, who was as majestic as a god.

Therefore, General Guan felt that this style of play was stable, but Gan Gui realized more steadily that this style of play was not suitable for him.

Therefore, Gan Gui's goal is even simpler: to blow up the female wall and leave the guards with no place to hide first.

The accuracy of the giant crossbow was not very easy to control, but after a whole afternoon of persistent shooting, most of the parapet at the top of Jianye City had collapsed.

Jiangdong's noble officers were all lying on the ground trying to stay away from the city wall. Sun Quan showed a very calm demeanor and spent the entire afternoon leaning next to a collapsed female wall to watch intently.

First of all, what he was most sure of was that the navy's tactics today were probably completely different from before.

Although the damage of crossbow arrows is limited to scorpions and the like, it can be a devastating blow to small boats.

As the owner of the same giant boat, Sun Quan understood better that a huge hull could have advantages against small boats.

The Jingzhou navy has a secret method to drive the giant ship to move quickly, which makes up for the biggest shortcoming of the giant ship.

And...except for the initial burst of fire, there was no movement from the giant ship. Such a calm posture actually made Sun Quan feel chilly, as if the other party was planning something bad.

As night began to slowly cover the river mouth, Sun Quan also took some simple food from Lu Yi, but before he could put it into his mouth, he saw the giant boat starting to move.

Gan Gui carefully ordered the soldiers to adjust the direction of the ship so that the bow and side faced the direction of Jianye, and then slowly approached step by step.

It was not until the soldiers who had jumped down to confirm the depth of the river warned that the bow of the ship was in danger of hitting the bottom that they stopped. At this time, the bow of the ship was less than 300 steps away from the city wall.

On the bow side is a brand new gadget installed on the giant boat this time.

It is still a giant crossbow, but it is slightly different from the conventional giant crossbows on the ship. It has more iron parts and the crossbow body has also undergone many changes.

But it is these modifications that allow specially made crossbow arrows to be placed on it.

This is an almost pure iron and heavy crossbow arrow, with a gleaming barb at the front end and a thick rope connected to the tail.

Under the aim of several experienced crossbow operators, the giant crossbow was carefully turned and then aimed at Jianye's city gate.

Although the distance of 300 steps was very close, because the crossbow arrows were all new and there were ropes dragging them behind, several soldiers still missed the target twice.

Until the third time, after holding my breath and concentrating, all I heard on the boat was a crisp whoosh sound.

Gan Gui was overjoyed. He did not need to give instructions for the next operation. The anchor rope at the stern was slowly tightened to fix the position of the ship. Zhao A and others in the cabin once again pedaled together. The round car at the stern rotated slowly and began to recover the entanglement. The rope on the round car, this rope passed through the fixture of the topmast, came to the bow, passed the new crossbow, and finally connected to the city gate of Jianye.

The wheel axis rotated slowly, and as the rope tightened, Jianye's closed city gate soon made an overwhelmed creaking sound.

Gan Gui laughed loudly, there is something interesting!

This new disguise was originally designed to deal with surface battles, shoot at enemy warships, and then speed up to rush forward. The main purpose is to hit the target with one unavoidable hit.

It was Gan Gui's whim to use it to hook the city gate, but now it seems that the effect is unexpectedly good.

This scene was so conspicuous that it actually made Sun Quan break into a cold sweat for a while.

The fiasco at the foot of Hefei City would occasionally appear in his dreams.

As a witness, Sun Quan may understand better than anyone else how miserable he was and how Zhang Liao won.

Open Sun Tzu and Six Tao, and you can find clues about Hefei's victory or defeat in them.

But the scene in front of him was completely different. Sun Quan had tried his best to understand the navy in front of him, but these actions could not change the situation on the field. The city gate was still in danger.

For a moment, Sun Quan felt a little regretful. If he had put aside his grudges and talked with Liu Bei in detail after the defeat in Hefei last year, maybe the navy in Jiangdong could do the same?

Sun Quan could even tell that the rope crossbow on the ship was not for siege. After pulling for a while, the iron crossbow arrow fell off.

But now Jianye is almost in a state of being beaten unilaterally, and this loss will not have any impact.

And sure enough, soon the sailors on the giant boat pulled the rope to retrieve the crossbow bolt, and then fired it again.

Sun Quan suddenly wanted to scold his mother, but in the end he restrained the urge. He looked at the buttocks sticking out on the city wall, shook his head and walked down. Now that the city gate was broken, he wanted to To defend his Jiangdong.

Sun Quan took the lead to go down to the city, which made these heroes feel like they had been granted amnesty. For a moment, they all wanted to escape from the top of the hell-like city wall. Sun Quan was even knocked around and staggered.

The loud bang coming from the city gate below and the panicked and confused shouts of the soldiers made Sun Quan too lazy to care about it.

With the addition of Sun Quan, the area near the city gate quickly stabilized, and Sun Quan also caught a glimpse of the leader of the navy.

Too young, this was Sun Quan's evaluation. For a moment, he felt a little love for talent in his heart, but when he looked at the old soldiers beside the young coach, why did he seem familiar?

But soon, Sun Quan threw all these thoughts out of the window, because Gangui Dalala made a very sincere suggestion:

Marquis Sun, do you want to surrender?

Sun Quan was almost furious. He pointed his sword at Gan Gui and said word by word:

The only good son of the Sun family who died in battle!

A clear disappointment appeared on Gan Gui's face, but it quickly disappeared and she changed to another sentence:

Why don't you see General Gan under the command of Marquis Sun?

After hearing these three words and thinking of the Jinfan and Silver Bell, Sun Quan suddenly understood the vague feeling of familiarity just now:

Son of Gan Ning? Gan Gui?

Gan Gui didn't think it was surprising. After all, his father had no foundation in Jiangdong and was never within the scope of Sun Hou's win, so naturally he would pay less attention to people like him.

It can even be said that Gan Gui was surprised that Sun Hou still remembered his name.

Seeing Gan Gui nodding in confirmation, Sun Quan laughed angrily:

Gan Xingba fled privately, but you asked me?

Gan Gui immediately looked at each other with his soldiers, and then the old soldiers burst into loud admiration:

As expected of General Lao Gan!

This made Gan Gui's worries completely let go. In fact, although he kept saying that he was powerful, Gan Gui was also afraid that Sun Quan would tear his face and use his father as a hostage, which would be tricky.

After her doubts were dispelled, Gan Gui looked at the group of Jiangdong talents behind Sun Quan with a playful expression.

Once upon a time, he also wanted to be among them, but now looking back, he just finds it ridiculous. He shook his head and said:

Marquis Sun, today's greeting should be regarded as repaying my father's kindness in the past. Tomorrow I will come again to attack the city.

Sun Quan stood there and watched Gan Gui retreat, with a feeling of sadness that only he knew in his heart.

Although Gan Gui said he would come back tomorrow, the city defenders still needed to be vigilant.

But what he didn’t expect was that when Lu Yi knocked on Sun Quan’s bedroom the next day, he brought another news:

Wu County urgently reports that Shan Yue has sent out troops, Yangxian has fallen, and is now besieging Piling!
