Chapter 1744 Do you call this pirate?
Chapter 1742: Do you call this pirate?
Jingzhou, the capital of Jiangxia, Xiling County, was the base of the Sun-Huang coalition army at this time.
Under Liu Xiu''s pressing step by step, Huang Zu, who only had one county, was in danger.
At this time, Huang Zu could not resist Liu Xiu by himself alone. He could only seek reinforcements from outside to survive this disaster.
But the eldest brother, the Qin army in Jingbei, is now too busy to take care of themselves. In desperation, Huang Zu could only ask for help from Sun Jian, Jiangdong, who had once had grudges.
Sun Jian also had the opportunity to eliminate Huang Zu and completely occupy Jiangxia. However, considering that Liu Xiu''s attack was more threatening, he settled for the second best and joined forces with Huang Zu to fight against Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu''s army had won consecutive battles and had already captured the six counties in Jiangxia. However, with the joint efforts of Sun and Huang, the Chu army became more and more difficult in Jiangxia, and even forced Liu Xiu to increase troops from Jingnan to preserve the previous results.
Liu Xiu increased his troops, and Sun Jian had to increase his troops, otherwise the situation in Jiangxia would be difficult to maintain.
Soon, the troops used by the Wu and Chu families in Jiangxia reached nearly 100,000 troops, and the rear naturally became empty, but now both sides were unable to sneak attack the enemy''s rear.
"Lord, Jiaozhou has just been supporting Liu Xiu, and the Taiping Army has not yet returned to its heart. Therefore, in the short term, it is impossible for Liu Xiu to send troops from Jiaozhou to attack Jiangdong." Sun Wu said with a confident look on his face.
"Um."
Sun Jian nodded and smiled, "In this way, don''t worry about our army''s rear, and we can also concentrate our efforts to fight against Liu Xiu."
As soon as he finished speaking, soldiers rushed in and reported anxiously: "Lord, something is wrong. A large number of pirates appeared in Wu County and Kuaiji County. After these pirates went ashore, they slaughtered the village and destroyed the village, killing countless people."
"What?"
Sun Jian and Sun Wu screamed at the same time, and Sun Jian hurriedly asked, "How many pirates are there?"
"Nearly 20,000 people. At present, Qua County, Wujun and Yongning County, Kuaiji have been captured by pirates.
After these pirates entered the city, they burned, killed, looted, raped women, and committed all kinds of evil. Tens of thousands of people were killed or injured, and the two counties had become empty cities. ”
"What?"
Sun Jian and Sun Wu exclaimed even louder, and then both of them were so angry that they gritted their teeth.
At first they thought these pirates were disguised by Liu Xiu, who wanted to use this to force the Wu army on the front line to withdraw their troops, but now it seems that they have little to do with Liu Xiu. After all, Liu Xiu will definitely not do such a thing as a massacre of the city.
Liu Xiu''s style of conduct was quite kind. When he attacked Jiaozhou, no matter how difficult the situation he was, he had never attacked the people. Now he is at the peak of his reputation, and it is even more impossible to do something like massacre of the city that destroys his reputation.
"Most of the pirates around Jiangdong have been cleared by me. Where did so many pirates emerge?" Sun Jian said with a puzzled look on his face.
Sun Wu''s eyes were full of grimness and he said in a deep voice: "Lord, it must be other forces who intervened."
"Can it be Liu Xiu?" Sun Jian asked.
Sun Wu shook his head: "It should have nothing to do with Liu Xiu, but you can also take this opportunity to defame Liu Xiu''s reputation."
“Good idea.”
A glimmer flashed in Sun Jian''s eyes. Sun Wu''s implication was that no matter whether Liu Xiu did it or not, even if Liu Xiu could prove his innocence in the end, this pot of dirty water would be poured on Liu Xiu''s head to distract him.
"The most urgent task is to wipe out these pirates as soon as possible. If they are allowed to massacre the city in Wujun and Kuaiji, our Wu Kingdom may really be hurt." Sun Wu said with a serious face.
"Where did the soldiers come from?" Sun Jian asked.
"The front-line army cannot move lightly, it can only rely on the county soldiers in the rear."
"This time there are nearly 20,000 pirates. Can you fight and retreat with only the county soldiers?"
"In fact, the combat power of the county soldiers is not weak. As long as they are supported by a commander of the good general, they will definitely be able to repel the pirates." After saying that, Sun Wu took the initiative to ask for the order: "Wu is willing to lead the army to wipe out the pirates."
“No, no.”
When Sun Jian heard this, he shook his head and said, "Liu Xiu''s threat is even greater. Brother Wu must not leave the front line."
As soon as Sun Jian finished speaking, Sun Ce and Sun Quan below stood up at the same time and said in unison: "Father, the child is willing to lead the army and expel the pirates."
Seeing this, Sun Wu thought for a little while and said, "The eldest son was brave and decisive, and the second son was both wise and brave. He would definitely be able to fight off the pirates and promote the power of our army."
"Okay, since that''s the case, Ce''er, you will be responsible for extermination of the pirates in Kuaiji."
After saying that, Sun Jian looked at Sun Quan again and said, "Quan''er, you are responsible for extermination of the pirates in Wu County. If you are young, you will send General Zhou Tai to assist you."
Sun Quan was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "I will definitely live up to my father''s expectations."
Sun Ce and Sun Quan immediately took office and rushed to Wujun and Kuaiji to preside over the matter. However, this time, they were not ordinary pirates, and their cunningness was far beyond the expectations of the two brothers.
Sun Ce''s opponent this time was Akichi Mitsuhide, and Sun Quan''s opponent was Tokugawa Ieyasu, both of whom were top famous players in the history of the Warring States Period of Japan.
After Sun Ce learned that Shan County was besieged by pirates, he immediately led 6,000 county soldiers to support him. However, after he arrived, the pirates had already fled and could only look at the sea without saying a word.
Sun Quan blocked Tokugawa Ieyasu in time, and launched a fierce battle in Fuchun Prefecture with 8,000 county soldiers and 10,000 Japanese pirates. As a result, both the battle formation and the generals were completely defeated to Tokugawa Ieyasu.
In the end, if Zhou Tai had not tried his best to save him, Sun Quan might have been killed in battle, and more than half of the soldiers in the eight thousand county were injured or killed.
After the defeat, Sun Quan was no longer able to encircle Tokugawa Ieyasu, so he could only defend his capital, Wuxian, and watched Tokugawa Ieyasu, making a stubborn and reckless manner in Wuxian.
"Second Young Master, please spare me, please spare me. I really don''t know that these pirates will have such strong combat power." The magistrate of Fuchun cried.
Sun Quan raised the magistrate Fuchun with anger and roared, "Do you call this a pirate? This is obviously an elite Japanese army."
Sun Quan really thought his opponent was a pirate and underestimated the enemy, so he started a hasty war. As a result, the opponent showed his superb quality and was not possessed by pirates at all.
Through clothing, weapons and language, Sun Quan easily analyzed the other party''s origin. After all, Japan and Sun Wu have had quite a lot of exchanges over the years.
If he had known that the enemy was the main force of the Japanese army, Sun Quan would have made sufficient preparations and would never have started the decisive battle so stupidly.
"Immediately pass the news that the pirates were Japanese pirates to my elder brother and my father."
After saying that, Sun Quan collapsed directly on the ground. He thought that he would show his skills this time, but he was embarrassed.

Xuzhou, Zhu Di was shocked and angry when he learned that the rear was attacked by pirates, the two counties were massacred, and the deaths of tens of thousands of people.
"Di''er, our main force needs to resist the Song and Wei coalition forces, and we should not be mobilized lightly. We can only use county soldiers to deal with the pirates." Fan Zeng said with a serious face.
"Just pirates are just a group of mobs. It''s enough to have county soldiers." Zhu Di said with a cold face.
"Who are you going to send to the commander?"
"I will go in person." Zhu Di said strongly.
