Chapter 638 Awakening the Killing Sword? Or Drunk on a Beauty's Knee?
Jiangdong, the sky above Stone City.
The hot air balloons were like black clouds... piled up into one piece, like a thick piece of iron, gradually sinking to the ground, and seemed to have reached the ridge of the roof. After a while, the house would be flattened.
——"Whoosh"
——"Bang bang!"
Several loud arrows were shot in the sky, making a "crisp" sound.
At the same time, those hot air balloons that heard the "sounding arrows" responded by shooting loud arrows around them again...
The sound of "bang bang" is endless...
It screamed like a nightingale... followed by nearly two hundred hot air balloons slowly landing!
At noon...there are dark clouds filling the sky, and the atmosphere here is suffocating.
On the other hand...in Stone City, with the smoke coming from the kitchen, it is quiet and peaceful, of course...except for the "black clouds" pressing down in the sky, there is also an undercurrent surging in the city here!
The Wei Dynasty's 100,000-strong army besieged the city... This was a big deal, so naturally... the leaders of Shanyue gathered here!
It's like discussing how to deal with...how to strengthen protection...
But the atmosphere here was full of "joyful songs and laughter"... It seemed like these Shanyue people had never taken Wei seriously.
Too…
In the mountains here, one man can guard the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. Not to mention Stone City, even the outermost mountain roads, it is impossible for Cao's army to reach it.
"Here, I will honor you generals with this bowl!"
The mountainous area here is not big, but because of "sitting in a well and looking at the sky", the leader here has long been king. He even couldn't figure it out... Why should other leaders of the mountainous area do anything if they can become the king of the mountain in this mountain? "Lu Jiajun"
"?
In his opinion, the dogs won’t even go!
"Your Majesty, Cao Jun sent a hundred thousand soldiers and horses outside the mountains, but... they can't even touch a hair on our noses! Ridiculous, ridiculous!"
"Yes, Lu Xun was so powerful back then, but he couldn't do anything to us. Can the soldiers of this Wei Dynasty know how to fight in mountainous areas?"
"Unless Cao Cao can fly in, otherwise... our Stone City is invincible!"
"Your Majesty, please...respect Baiyue!"
Today's Shanyue was once called "Baiyue". They are the descendants of King Goujian of Yue. They recite the story of Goujian, the king of Yue, who hid his courage while lying on the firewood all the time and remember it in their hearts.
"Ha ha ha ha…"
The more the King of Yue listened, the more dejected he became. He raised the wine bottle again. "Come, pay homage to the 'Three Thousand Yue Jia' who swallowed Wu!"
"Hahaha…"
The generals once again laughed sadly.
Just then.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty...it's not good, it's not good..."
A Shanyue soldier rushed in in a hurry... "Enemy attack... Enemy attack!"
Enemy attack?
Originally...the leaders who were drinking and talking vigorously were all stunned. Look at me...I look at you...
Obviously…
Obviously... all the mountain passes are firmly guarded. The situation of the garrison was personally deployed by a group of leaders. It can be said that one man is in charge of the barrier and ten thousand people cannot open it... How... how is it possible for the enemy to attack?
"Which mountain road was lost?"
"Don't I, the general, have several lines of defense?"
"How could Cao's army attack? Tell me clearly!"
A general yelled, and immediately... everyone in the room calmed down, especially King Shanyue... After a brief look of shock, he calmed down.
No need to panic…
If Cao's army can't attack, even if a certain mountain road is lost, there will be many difficulties behind it. If it doesn't work... he can send people to push down the huge rocks to completely block the mountain road...
Not leaving the mountains? Shanyue people can still survive!
"Go back to General Wulu!" King Shanyue repeated: "The mountain road has been lost? Is there any support? What is the current situation?"
However, this soldier seemed to have seen a ghost.
"Reply to the commander-in-chief...Cao Jun is...falling from the sky!"
"They... they are like countless nightingales above our heads, so dense that the sky outside is dark!"
Heaven… heaven?
Falling from the sky?
All the leaders of Shanyue were a little confused. The King of Shanyue even picked up the soldier's sleeves and said, "Damn it, how dare you lie to me?"
"Nonsense, humans are not birds, how can they fly?"
As soon as I finished speaking...
Without waiting for the soldier to explain...
"Help, help..."
"Wow ah ah..."
Countless shouts and wailings came from outside the door...and the sounds got louder and louder...and louder and louder!
Immediately afterwards…
"Boom..." There was a sound, and something seemed to have been smashed on the beam.
Before the leader of Qian Shanyue could react, from top to bottom... the raging fire had already started and started to spread...
And this is just the tip of the iceberg of this fire.
The real fire dragon and flames have just begun!
…
…
Stone Town is not big…
Above the sky, there are densely packed, two hundred huge flying balls, enough to cover the entire sky and earth.
It was enough to make Stone City completely dark at noon.
Wherever each flying ball passed, there was first the sound of earthen jars breaking, and then...the earthen jars ignited by flames were dropped at the same time.
After the tinder fell to the ground, it spread instantly, igniting every street and house in Stone City... showing the potential of starting a prairie fire.
In the basin area, the mountain wind is strong...the fire borrows the power of the wind, and the wind borrows the power of the fire, like a fire dragon, sweeping across like crazy!
The tongues of fire that were more than ten feet long licked every eaves and burned!
The roof tiles exploded violently, and the tiles flew all over the sky like hailstones, injuring more than a dozen people in an instant.
There were explosions and screams, and people scrambled to escape from the burning house, but they found...Stone City was filled with flames at this time!
Escape? Where can we escape?
"water?"
"Get some water!"
The people of Shanyue shouted that in their inherent concept, water restrains fire...If you can't escape...then put out the fire!
It's a pity...
Most of the houses in Stone City are made of wood, which is extremely flammable, and...the earthen jars thrown from the hot air balloons in the sky are filled with "whale oil"...
This "whale oil" is extremely resistant to burning... and will not be doused with water!
The fire caused by whale oil is even more invincible in such a basin.
King Shanyue clearly saw jars falling from the sky, then exploding...and then being ignited by flames, burning everything.
And the flying balls all over the sky are getting lower and lower... just like the nightmare of all Shanyue people.
"Run away...to the east city gate!"
"Escape quickly..."
Everyone is panicking. At this time, no one cares about dignity... Everyone is hesitant, at a loss, and they don't know how to deal with it.
Of course, there are also brave ones...organizing crossbowmen to stand at high points and shoot flying balls.
But they found...the crossbow couldn't penetrate the wrapped ball sac at all.
On the contrary...many of the hands of these crossbows were swept by the flames, became burning people, and fled in all directions...The thick smoke was suffocating, and countless people were burned to death...
But more people were smoked to death than burned to death...
It was difficult to breathe in the black smoke.
"Ahem..."
King Shanyue coughed desperately, "Open the city gate...Open the city gate!"
He was riding on a horse, and countless tribesmen were trampled under the hooves of the horse...
"Dong..."
And as the city gate opened, countless Shanyue people escaped from here, and then... entered the jungle outside the city!
Because it is a basin, Stone City is surrounded by woods...it is easy to dodge in the middle!
It seems that King Sangoe soon realized that the weakness of this flying ball was that it was too big... and it was impossible to track and kill everyone.
only…
He thought simply.
"Rumble..."
As the jars continued to be thrown from the flying ball, the woods were also ignited... the entire basin quickly became a sea of fire!
The purpose of the flying team has never been to burn the city... but to burn the mountain!
"ah…"
"ah…"
The sound of howling ghosts and wolves came from this basin, and everyone here was trembling with fear.
And with the fires raging on all sides, King Shanyue discovered that...he...he had nowhere to go.
Boom...boom!
With helpless, hesitant, panicked and bewildered eyes, he and his people were covered in fire!
palace…
Palace…
Houses, castles, everything was like a dream, vanishing into nothing at this moment.
And all this is just because... they chose to fight against Cao Wei instead of surrendering to Cao Wei!
Nowadays, no one can afford...the price of fighting against Cao Wei!
…
…
After the flames burn...
A thin layer of ashes scattered like a steady drizzle... Looking over the entire mountain, there were burnt Shanyue people everywhere!
This Shanyue... known as "Sun Quan's nightmare" in history...
This brave and capable Shanyue.
No one could have imagined that in just one night... they and... their family, young and old, would all die!
"Gudong..."
Zhou Yu shook off the doomsday scene in his mind and turned to look at Lu Yu.
He admitted that he had led the army for many years and participated in countless battles in his life, but he had never seen such a tragic scene.
Once upon a time, he followed the little overlord Sun Ce and swept across Jiangdong, and saw tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands of casualties.
The battlefield was also extremely bloody!
but…
No one has ever been so violent!
The sudden and devastating massacre made it difficult for Zhou Yu to accept it for a while.
Even if those who were burned to death were Shanyue people who, in his opinion, had committed a heinous crime!
On the other hand...Lu Yu...
A city turned into a sea of fire, and more than 100,000 people were cooked and killed in the city. Why didn't Lu Yu even blink?
Is there really going to be an unparalleled killing god in the world who can kill like a fool and can rival Bai Qi, Lord Wu'an of the pre-Qin Dynasty?
Inside Wancheng.
The screams were endless, and the Zhenbei Army, thousands of steps away, could feel the heat wave hitting their faces.
Not long after, a disgusting aroma wafted from inside Wancheng.
horrible…
It's so terrible. A month, even a few months, a year... Zhou Yu is afraid that he will sink into this horror and nightmare.
At this moment...he thought about how cruel and terrifying Zhuge Kongming's "burning Bowang Slope" was?
Zhou Yu looked at Lu Yu subconsciously...
Lu Yu felt a little embarrassed when he saw him.
"Captain Zhou, you don't have to look at me all the time, do you?"
Lu Yu was touching something from the rattan basket...
Zhou Yu shivered subconsciously, fearing that it was the whale oil tank... In fact, there was no whale oil tank in Lu Yu's rattan basket.
Finally, Lu Yu found something... it was a large dried yellow croaker.
"Captain Zhou, are you hungry? Eat some large yellow croaker?"
Oh…
Zhou Yu smiled bitterly.
He narrowed his eyes and groaned deeply, "Lu Ziyu, are you...are you a devil?"
"Are you deliberately letting me see how this mountain has been wiped out overnight?"
There was a vibrato in Zhou Yu's tone...
"hehe…"
Hearing this, Lu Yu smiled, and he smiled happily. "To answer Governor Zhou's first question first, I am not a devil. On the contrary... I have always respected the saying in "The Art of War" of Sun Tzu, "The soldier who conquers the enemy without fighting"
', the strategies set during battles often focus on the word 'quan', what is 'quan'? Preservation is 'quan'! The smallest price in exchange for the greatest victory is 'quan'!"
"As Governor Zhou said, the Jiangdong Sun family is very tough. If they are not intimidated in this way...then...the six counties of Jiangdong will be burned by this flying ball. At that time, the real loss of life will be the real loss of life."
The devil!"
"But now, the incident in Shanyue will soon spread to Jiangdong. Sun Zhongmou does not want to surrender, but where is Wu Guotai? Where is Sun Yi? Where are the people in the six counties and seventy-two counties of Jiangdong?"
"If you look at it this way, the people I burned were just foreigners, Yue people, not us Han people...Look at it this way, I am not a devil...but rather a Bodhisattva who prevents the destruction of life in Jiangdong!"
call…
Zhou Yu let out a long breath, Lu Yu's words...every sentence, every word was like a heavy hammer hitting his heart.
What Lu Yu gave Jiang Dong was never a multiple-choice question, but a must-choice question.
Koto...has no choice!
Gudong…
Zhou Yu swallowed again.
Lu Yu slowly turned around, faced Zhou Yu, and continued: "In fact, I can prevent Governor Zhou from seeing this, or I can directly send out flying ball soldiers to burn Wu County! If this is the case, the Sun family in Jiangdong will even fortify the final wall and clear the country, or even
If there is no chance of surrender, he and the people of Jiangdong will turn into ashes...just like the king of Shanyue in Stone City."
"But the reason why I let Governor Zhou see it is because I feel that you, Zhou Gongjin, are the only one who can persuade Sun Zhongmou and Lu Zijing!"
"I, Lu Yu, would like to ask Governor Zhou to be my envoy, and also ask Governor Zhou to persuade the Jiangdong Sun family to make the right choice..."
"I can be the Bai Qi who killed 300,000 surrendered soldiers, or I can be the 'Mengchang' with 3,000 retainers, who is inclusive and helps the Wei Dynasty absorb thousands of people from Jiangdong!"
Speaking of this, Lu Yu reached out and patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder, "The person who can make this choice... is you!"
"The survival or death of Jiangdong depends on Gong Jin's hands!"
Finally, Lu Yu put his hand on Zhou Yu's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and had a smile on his face.
Lu Yu said it easily...
But for Zhou Yu, his mood was extremely heavy, "What a murderous sword with awakening palm..."
Oh…
Hearing this, Lu Yu smiled and replied: "I like the previous sentence better than this one..."
"Drunk on the beauty's knees!"
Once upon a time, Lu Yu really thought that if... one day, he would unify this chaotic world for Cao Cao.
As a person with a foreign surname, shouldn't he also learn from Fan Li, learn from Zhang Liang, learn from Shi Shouxin... retreat bravely, maybe Cao Cao will make him a salted fish king... and give him a piece of land!
Besides rights…
Money and beauty are all there!
If you think about it carefully, this kind of life should be pretty good...
History is cruel, "The cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys are cooked, the flying birds are gone, the good bow is hidden", Bai Qi, who was sent to death by King Zhaoxiang of Qin... Zhou Yu mentioned such a sentence "awakening palm to kill the sword" also reminded Lu Yu.
Success and fame mean... retreat bravely from the rapids!
Lu Yu thought of this...
Zhou Yu's expression on the other side was still heavy, "Lu Ziyu, it would be okay if you were Mengchangjun, but if you were Bai Qi, I don't know how many people would die in the world... The bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no rooster crow for thousands of miles!"
"Poetry of King Wei?"
"Poetry of King Wei!"
"This sentence is not good..."
"Then...which sentence is better?"
"The mountains never get too high, the sea never gets too deep... Duke Zhou spits out food, and the world returns to its heart!"
Just like asking quick questions and quick answers, Lu Yu and Zhou Yu spoke very fast!
