Lu Meng suddenly pulled out the sword, and blood flew out. Huang Gai's burly body immediately fell down and hit the ground heavily.

The person who saw this scene couldn't help but feel frightened!

Lu Meng held the sword that was still dripping blood, glanced at everyone present, and said loudly: "The situation is now hopeless. If we want to survive and see our parents, wife and children again, we can only surrender to the Han court and His Majesty the Han Dynasty!

All of us have done our best for the Eastern Wu, and now there is no need to die more people for the hopeless Eastern Wu!

However, Huang Gai insisted on asking everyone to fight against the imperial army and wanted everyone to die, so in order for everyone to survive, I had to kill him!"

When the officers and soldiers heard this, they were in a very complicated mood. They were both happy for Lu Meng's decision and regretful for Huang Gai's death. Some people couldn't help but hate Huang Gai, and they only felt that such a person deserved to be damn!"

Lu Meng turned around to look for Zhang Zhao. Seeing that Zhang Zhao was hiding behind the desk, he immediately called out: "Mr. Zhang!"

When Zhang Zhao heard Lu Meng's call, he hurried out and rushed to Lu Meng. He couldn't help but look at Huang Gai's body lying on the ground, swallowed, and clasped his fists at Lu Meng and said, "Deputy Governor, what are you doing?"

Lu Meng said: "The obstacles have been eliminated, it's time to do the right thing!"

About half an hour later, Lu Meng and Zhang Zhao led a 20,000-strong defeated general out of the prefect's mansion and went straight to Liu Xian's horse to kneel down and bow down.

Lu Meng bowed to the ground and sang in great respect: "The criminal Lu Meng led more than 20,000 officers and soldiers to surrender to Your Majesty and the Han court!"

Liu Xian smiled and said, "You have made a very wise decision. Your decision has resulted in the shortage of casualties between both sides, which is equivalent to making military achievements. As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, I will never treat you unfairly.

Lu Meng, I will now enthrone you as the General of the Yulin Army and follow me. The Wu army here is reorganized into officers and soldiers under the Central Army, and you will still be in command."

When Lu Meng heard this, he felt relieved and quickly bowed and thanked him.

Liu Xian looked at Zhang Zhao.

Seeing Liu Xian's gaze, Zhang Zhao suddenly became nervous and hurriedly said, "Sinner Zhang Zhao, I am willing to make meritorious service after he is guilty!"

Liu Xian smiled and said, "Mr. Zhang has made military achievements this time. I will enthrone you as the inspector of the Three Wus, responsible for supervising the local civil affairs of the Three Wus! If you encounter any problems, you can report to me directly!"

Zhang Zhao was overjoyed and hurriedly bowed and thanked him.

Liu Xian remembered something and said to the two people kneeling on the ground: "By the way, Sun Jing has also surrendered to the court. He is now the Governor of the Three Wus and the Prime Minister of Civil Affairs."

Zhang Zhao and Lu Meng both showed unexpected expressions, but when they heard Liu Xian's words, the only worry they had in their hearts completely disappeared.

Yuzhang, the palace of King Wu.

After seeing the emergency military information just sent, Sun Quan was furious and couldn't help but curse: "Waste! Waste! All are waste! I have high hopes for Lu Meng and Sun Jing, but they all let me down!

The entire Kuaiji County fell! The entire Kuaiji County fell like this!…………”

Zhou Yu and others were all shocked when they heard this. Someone said in disbelief: "I only received news not long ago that Lu Meng's army retreated to Kuaiji County, why did it fall so quickly?! This, this..."

Sun Quan was paced back and forth in the hall, looking extremely irritable. Everyone in the hall was silent, and everyone looked very bad.

No wonder, the three heavy troops in the east and west have been defended, and now the heavy troops in the east have been wiped out. The entire situation is already very bad for the Eastern Wu side!

Sun Quan stopped, looked at Zhou Yu with hope, and said, "Gongjin, what should we do in the current situation? Do we still have hope of turning defeat into victory?"

Everyone's eyes also gathered on Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu thought for a moment and frowned and said, "Now, there is still a chance to turn defeat into victory..."

Sun Quan immediately showed joy, while the civil and military officials seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Because in everyone's feelings, as long as Zhou Yu said there was hope, the situation was not yet completely desperate!

Later that day, Sun Quan and Zhou Yu came to the backyard of the palace. Sun Quan couldn't wait to ask: "Gongjin, what way do we have to turn defeat into victory?" When he said this, Sun Quan's eyes were full of hope and expectation.

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and said, "I'm not to hide it. What my subordinates said in the hall just now is actually to stabilize people's hearts!"

Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale, and he couldn't help asking: "You, do you mean, we have no hope anymore?"

Zhou Yu quickly clasped his fists and said, "I don't mean this. What I mean is that it is difficult to turn defeat into victory by relying on conventional means!..."

Sun Quan immediately grasped the meaning of Zhou Yu's words and asked quickly: "What Gongjin meant is that if there are no long-term means to turn defeat into victory?"

Zhou Yu nodded and thought, "Although Liu Xian's power is strong, there is also a hidden worry, that is, Liu Xian's descendants are still young, and Liu Xian has not yet confirmed his heir!

In this way, as long as Liu Xian died suddenly, his internal affairs would immediately fall into chaos of struggle. At that time, we would be able to turn danger into safety."

When Sun Quan heard Zhou Yu's words, he felt a little disappointed and frowned and said, "Does Gongjin want to get rid of Liu Xian? But this has been done more than once before, but it has not been successful.

It was not successful before, but it is even harder to succeed now!”

Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Quan, clasped his fists and said, "King of Wu, there is a chance, this matter must fall on the princess!"

In Kuaiji, the sun was already rising very high in the early morning.

Under the reflection of the rising sun, the streets of Kuaiji gradually became lively, and vendors selling goods kept hawking, with rhythmic sounds one after another. Although there were not many pedestrians on the street, they were not few.

Just two days after the end of the Battle of Kuaiji, Kuaiji seemed to have recovered a lot of vitality.

No wonder, after occupying Kuaiji, Liu Xian immediately issued many policies aimed at promoting the development of industry, commerce and agriculture, and exempted various taxes and corvee labor from the previous sects of the Eastern Wu.

These measures allowed Kuaiji to quickly recover after the war.

Although it was still early in the restaurant, there were already several tables of guests drinking and chatting leisurely.
