181. Chapter 181 Death of Huang Zu(1/2)

Cai Zhong was about to catch up with Sun Quan's ship, and his heart was so happy that he was about to explode. At this moment, a soldier suddenly pointed at the north bank and shouted: "General, the water village has caught fire!"

Cai Zhong turned around and saw that the fire in their water village was soaring into the sky, the smoke rolled, and the fire continued for several miles, swallowing the entire water village. Cai Zhong was shocked. He suddenly realized that he had been trapped in the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, and he was so anxious that he shouted: "The warship turned around!"

But it was too late, and only the sound of drums was heard, and the sound of killing was heard on the river surface. Warships from all directions surrounded him and rushed towards him. Cai Zhong was so scared that he sat on the ground. He realized that he had caused a huge disaster.

Cai Mao was awakened by soldiers while sleeping. When he heard that the water camp had caught fire, Jiangdong's arms ship rushed in from all directions. He was so anxious that he cursed: "Why didn't that idiot in Caizhong stop it?"

"Military advisor, General Cai was tricked to lure the tiger away from the mountain. He was tempted by someone pretending to be Sun Quan to defend against the empty defense. Jiangdong Army talent......"

Cai Mao yelled in anger, kicked the soldiers who reported the letter and ordered: "Give up the warship, all soldiers will go ashore quickly!"

Cai Mao summoned more than 16,000 soldiers and rushed to the ashore. At this moment, a shout of killing broke out in the woods on the shore. Zhou Yu personally led 5,000 troops to kill. Xu Sheng, Xu Sheng, the left army, Pan Zhang, and thousands of Jiangdong soldiers instantly rushed into the Jingzhou army.

Most of the Jingzhou army fled ashore from their dreams, and their armor was not worn and their weapons were not taken. The Jiangdong army suddenly killed them and caused chaos. The Jingzhou army trampled on each other and everyone rushed to escape. Without any resistance, they were quickly defeated, and countless surrendered.

Cai Mao pretended to be a soldier in the chaos and fled from the battlefield. He did not dare to stay and fled back to Xiangyang directly.

On the south bank, Jiangdong Water Village, Sun Quan stood on the big boat with his hands behind his hands, looking at the fire in Jingzhou Village, he was very happy and turned around and smiled at everyone, "It is worthy of being Zhou Lang. With just raising his hands, the reinforcements in Jingzhou were wiped out."

The master Bo Cheng Bing smiled and said, "Since Cai Mao has been defeated, why not take advantage of this opportunity of high morale and act in one go to wipe out Huang Zu!"

Sun Quan nodded and ordered his personal soldiers to the enemy: "Tell me the order to Zhou Yu. There is no need to pursue the defeated army anymore. The entire army will prepare for war tomorrow and encircle and suppress Huang Zu!"



















If Huang Zu is compared to an animal at this time, he is a trapped beast. Since his eldest son Huang She defeated Wuchang, Huang Zu realized that the end of the world was approaching, especially when Sun Quan killed all the Huang family, what Huang Zu felt was not angry, but a kind of inner trembling, which made him panic all day long and drown his sorrows by drinking all day long.

In the room, the guard Ding Ping carried a jar of wine to Huang Zu. Huang Zu carried the jar of wine, poured a large bowl of wine, and then waved his hand and ordered Ding Ping to retreat. Ding Ping was the first guard of Huang Zu and a relative of his aide Jiang Qi. He gained Huang Zu's trust because of exposing Su Fei and became Huang Zu's confidant guard.

He quickly retreated. At this time, the door of the big tent was opened with a "brush!" sound. Su Fei walked in anxiously. Ding Ping was shocked and hurriedly hid behind the tent.

Su Fei was originally Huang Zu's deputy general, Huang Zu's left and right arm. However, last year, the attack on Chaisang failed, Huang Zu suspected that Su Fei had surrendered to Liu Jing secretly, and he was not allowed to take charge of the army anymore, and only gave him a free position.

This time Jiangdong launched a large-scale attack on Jiangxia. Su Fei advised Huang Zu several times, but Huang Zu never ignored it. Su Fei had just received the news that Cai Mao was defeated. He was anxious and rushed in desperately.

"Does the prefect still have the heart to drink now?" Su Fei stamped his feet in a hurry.

Huang Zu glared at him fiercely, threw the wine bowl hard, and cursed: "With my consent, you dare to break into my big tent. Are you tired of living?"

"Prefect, Cai Mao has been defeated, Sun Quan is summoning a large army, and the fire is on the rise!"

"What!" Huang Zu was scared and sweated in cold sweat. He woke up immediately after drinking. He couldn't say a word for a long time.

At this time, Su Fei sighed and said, "Bizhi also received another news. Liu Jing took back Chaisang, captured Lu Meng, and defeated Jiangdong Army. Beizhi believed that if the prefect cooperated with Liu Jing now, he might be able to protect Jiangxia. The prefect, withdraw his troops to Chaisang!"

Huang Zu slowly walked forward, suddenly grabbed Su Fei's clothes, stared at him viciously and said, "I understand now that you are the undercover agent Liu Jing is placed beside me, right?"

Su Fei also shouted with hatred: "I have devoted all my efforts to the prefect and have no selfishness, but the prefect said that I have ulterior motives, so how can I bear it!"

Huang Zu sneered and shouted: "Come here!"

Dozens of personal soldiers snatched in, Huang Zu pointed at Su Fei, "Drag this person out and beat him to death!"

Dozens of personal soldiers dragged Su Fei down like wolves and tigers, and Su Fei cursed: "Zu Huang, kill me today, and you will die tomorrow!"

"Drag it out and beat it to death!" Huang Zu yelled in a rage.

At this moment, Jiang Qi hurried in and knelt down and said, "Don't calm down, it's not the time to kill him."

Huang Zu sat down heavily, took a breath and said, "Why isn't it time to kill him?"

"Prefect Su Fei has a great prestige in the army. Killing him now will inevitably shake the morale of the army and will not help the prefect fight against the Jiangdong army. It is better to take him into prison first and then kill him later."

Huang Zu was in a state of confusion. He also felt that Jiang Qi's words had some truth, so he ordered: "Don't kill him for the time being, detain me, and then kill someone else's head in two days."

Jiang Qi advised again: "Now that Cai Mao was defeated, the Jiangdong army will inevitably attack us in large numbers. If we fight against the water, our army will definitely be defeated. The prefect would rather abandon the ship and go ashore and use the advantage of the territory to confront the Jiangdong army. If the situation is unfavorable, you can also withdraw Nanjun by land. What do the prefect think?"

Huang Zu pondered for a long time and finally nodded and agreed, "As long as he said."



















Huang Zu gave up his warship and withdrew his troops ashore. He divided 15,000 people into two battalions, and the first battalion was commanded by his son Huang She, and was stationed west of Xiakou.

He himself led 10,000 people to station in Xiakou, and the two battalions were ten miles apart. According to Huang Zu's idea, if he was unfortunately defeated, he could retreat to Huangshe Camp and lead the last 5,000 people to escape to Nanjun, with some capital in his hands.

At night, Jiang Qi walked back and forth in the tent with his hands behind his back. Seeing that Huang Zu was about to die, how could he not think of a way to protect himself? He didn't want to bury Huang Zu. At this time, his son Jiang Nan hurried into the tent and knelt down and bowed, "Did your father look for me?"

Jiang Qi nodded and said to his son: "I want to surrender to Jiangdong. You can go to Jiangdong camp for me to meet Wu Hou and express my wish."

He took out a letter and a gold medal to his son, and instructed him: "Thank you to Wu Hou, you can go to and from the camp at will."

Jiang Nan nodded and walked quickly. Jiang Qi looked at his son walking away and sighed softly.



















Sun Quan was already asleep, but when he heard that Huang Zu's confidant Jiang Qi sent his son to deliver the letter, he immediately put on his clothes and ordered someone to bring Jiang Nan in. Jiang Nan came in and kowtowed and bowed, saying, "God to Mr. Wu!"

Seeing that he was quite young, only at the age of sixteen or seventeen, Sun Quan smiled and said, "Where is your father's letter?"

Jiang Nan hurriedly took out the letter and submitted it. Sun Quan took it and read it. In the letter, Jiang Qi was quite humble and willing to serve Jiang Dong. Sun Quan pondered for a moment, took out a pen and wrote four words and handed it to Jiang Nan, "Give this letter to your father, he will know at a glance."

Jiang Nan left, and Sun Quan immediately ordered: "Let Zhou Yu come to see me quickly!"



















Jiang Qi took the letter from his son and opened it. There were only four words on it, "Huang Zu's Head". He took a breath. Sun Quan actually wanted Huang Zu's Head, which was difficult to deal with!

Jiang Qi was walking around the big tent. He really didn't want to bear the name of killing the master, but this was another condition offered by Sun Quan. If he didn't kill Huang Zu, Sun Quan would not be able to use him. After thinking about it, he had no way out.

Jiang Qi gritted his teeth, "Forget it, if you don't care for yourself, heaven will be punished by the earth!"

For the sake of wealth in the second half of his life, he took the initiative.

Jiang Qi immediately said to his confidant, "Go and find Ding Ping to see me!"
