Chapter 1947 Unmanned King
Wan Yu's lament was not unreasonable. The ten thousand people he led were almost the last main force of Cannon Wu. If most of them were annihilated by Shanyue people in Heifeng Gorge, then Jian'an City would not have many troops to defend against the enemy. Not to mention the Wei army that was likely to come, even the two Shanyue people, Hua Qiu and Hong Ji, could not stop it.
So, this time, the Wu Kingdom was really over, and Master Wu Sun Hao was completely cold.
All this stems from Sun Hao's greed, arrogant, extravagant and debauchery. After Kuaiji fell, they fled to a nearly wild place in Jian'an. Logically, Sun Hao should have worked hard to revive the country and prepare for the restoration of the Wu Kingdom.
But Sun Hao seemed to have forgotten that they were still in the process of escape. Behind him, there were pursuers from Wei who might have come, and they actually acted as a hero in Jian'an City, cleared up Shanyue, and plundered slaves just to build a palace for Sun Hao.
But are Shanyue people so easy to provoke? As the saying goes, rabbits will bite people when they are anxious, let alone Shanyue people who are dominant in Jian'an Mountains.
Although the Shanyue people have maintained a peaceful relationship with the local government over the years, this is also based on the premise that the well water does not violate the rivers. This time, Sun Hao sent his army to suppress Shanyue, which actually caused a big blow. Not only did it bring disaster to Wan Yu who led his troops to the expedition, but it is also an unknown whether Sun Hao can survive this disaster.
In other words, when Shan Yue was angry, the entire Jian'an was shocked. Sun Hao, he and his men misjudged the situation. The Battle of Black Wind Gorge completely changed their destiny.
Hua Qiu stood on the top of the mountain and glanced at the battlefield with a cold gaze. At this time, the Shanyue people had completely occupied the advantage on the battlefield. They launched a final attack on the trapped Wu army.
This is completely a Jedi. After the Wu army entered Heifeng Gorge, there was no chance of escaping, and the Shanyue people did not need to be captured. Even if they gave up their resistance, they could not escape the fate of being beheaded. What the Shanyue people needed was only their heads. After these heads were taken back, there were rewards and rewards.
The Wu army was completely desperate. At least seven or eight thousand Wu army trapped in the valley, none of them could go back alive. Wan Yu committed suicide, and the Wu army fell into a state of chaos. He could no longer organize any effective resistance. Under the attack of the Huaqiu tribe and the Hongji tribe, the entire army was destroyed and no one survived.
Hua Qiu looked coldly at the Shanyue people executed the Wu soldiers one by one in the cruelest way. There was no ripples in his heart. For Hua Qiu, these people were just ants and were not to be jealous. Next, they had more important things to do, that is, to march into Jian'an City, solve the Shanyue people who were robbed by the Wu people, and to question the emperor, the culprit of the Wu Kingdom.
The remaining Wu army escaped back to Jian'an by chance, and also brought back the bad news about Heifeng Gorge. Everyone in Jian'an City, including Sun Hao, was stunned.
However, before they could wake up from the shock, the Shanyue people had already surrounded Jian'an City. Now, the people stranded in the city had no chance to escape, so they could only defend Jian'an City to the death.
The Shanyue people have never fought siege wars, and they do have great shortcomings in this regard. Although they also tried to tie long bamboos into ladders, the city walls were very high, and those simple ladders were unable to be used at all. They were destroyed by the Wu army and even crushed themselves, Hua Qiu also thought of many ways, but the shortage of siege equipment caused their siege operations to be repeatedly frustrated.
There was no choice but to use the method of long-term siege to siege the city, trapping the Wu people in the city to death to starve, and then forcing them out of the city to break out.
Although he temporarily defended the city, Sun Hao was worried. After all, tens of thousands of Shanyue people outside the city refused to retreat, and the food in the city was limited, which could not last long.
Now Sun Hao can only count on the people from other prefectures and counties to come and serve the king. Fortunately, before Jian'an was besieged, Sun Hao had issued an edict to the governor of Jiaozhou and the prefect of Yuzhang, asking them to send money and food and troops to serve the king.
Originally, Jian'an City was not a big city, and its population was extremely limited. The Wu court moved its capital here, and so many people suddenly came to the city. With the size of Jian'an City, it was simply unbearable. The Shanyue people besieged the city for only one or two months, and the grain warehouse of Jian'an City had already reached its bottom. Now, except for the people who were serving the king, Sun Hao no longer had any hope.
But time passed day by day, the situation in Jian'an City was in full swing, and there was always danger of destruction. But Sun Hao looked at the autumn water and the broken autumn clouds, but he could not see the men who were trying to save the king.
Obviously no one took him, the court, seriously. The edict issued by Yun, was like a muddy cow that entered the sea, and there was no news. Seeing the food in the city gradually exhausted, people were in panic, and the army had no fighting spirit. If this continued, it would be impossible for Jian'an City to be able to defend it.
"Your Majesty, you'd better break through as soon as possible. If you keep going, you will be dead." Liu Ping advised Sun Hao.
These days, Sun Hao has become very manic. Every day, he kills people and kills people. If there is any unpleasant thing, he will attack his close servants. The servants around Sun Hao are simply a high-risk profession. Very few of the people sent to Sun Hao to serve him have lived for ten days.
Sun Hao's cruelty and tyranny made many people feel heartbroken. Except for the prefect Liu Ping, no one has the courage to approach him actively.
In addition to killing people every day, Sun Hao just drowns his sorrows by drinking. After getting drunk, he even came to kill people unscrupulously. After hearing Liu Ping's words, he stared at his blood-red eyes and said drunkenly: "Break through? This is the sky and the earth are big, I... where else can I go?"
Liu Ping couldn't help but frown. He was so arrogant that he had lost his country's king for eight lifetimes. He was stupid and incompetent, and he was bloodthirsty. It was really unreasonable that the Wu Kingdom would not perish.
But Liu Ping could not leave it alone. Now the situation in Jian'an is already in danger, with no food and grass inside and no reinforcements outside. If you just keep it alone, you can only sit and wait for death and want to escape a way out. You can only take advantage of the fact that there is still some last-dip of food to make the soldiers eat, and breaking out is the way out. If you don't leave at this time, you will have no chance in the future.
Seeing that Sun Hao was drunk and almost unconscious, Liu Ping didn't care much about it. He asked someone to raise Sun Hao, stuff it into the carriage, and head straight for the city gate.
