Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle
Chapter 498: Death of Lü Meng
Guan Yu stood on his horse with his sword drawn, looking at the defeated army from Jiangdong with eyes full of contempt.
"White Clothes Raid, you Jiangdong rats are the ones who thought of it. If it weren't for the kindness of Uncle Liu, Guan would have killed all of you. Today I will give you a chance. Anyone who lays down his weapons and surrenders can be spared. Otherwise, don't blame Guan's men for being ruthless."
Lu Meng's eyes were full of anger. He had never expected that the plan he had worked so hard to come up with would be seen through by Uncle Liu.
Most of the 30,000-strong army was destroyed by the fire just now. Now with Guan Yu in front of them, they have no way to retreat.
He had no choice but to fight.
"Everyone, are you willing to fight me to the death?"
"I am willing to fight to the death with the general!"
Guan Yu looked at the Jiangdong soldiers, who were still bursting with strong fighting spirit when facing desperate situations, and the cold and arrogant look in his eyes faded a little.
Judging from the fighting spirit of these soldiers, it was no coincidence that Sun Ce was able to pacify Jiangdong in a short period of time.
Guan Yu said no more and patted the Red Hare. The Red Hare rushed towards Lu Meng as fast as an arrow.
"Kill!"
When the soldiers behind him saw how brave Guan Yu was, their blood was ignited and they followed Guan Yu and charged forward.
They waved their weapons and rushed towards the enemy shouting.
Guan Yu, holding the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, was like a ferocious lion, slashing left and right in the crowd, and enemies fell to the ground wherever he went.
After chopping down two enemy soldiers, Guan Yu finally confronted Lu Meng head-on.
The two men's weapons collided with each other, making a crisp sound.
After just a few moves, Guan Yu had already made a preliminary assessment of Lu Meng's martial arts.
In his past combat career, he had encountered countless powerful generals, but the Lu Meng in front of him was obviously not outstanding.
With his strength, he can defeat the opponent in thirty moves at most.
The two continued to fight, and Guan Yu's swordsmanship became more and more fierce. Each of his moves contained great power, forcing Lu Meng to deal with it with all his strength.
Although Lu Meng was at a disadvantage, he still stubbornly resisted Guan Yu's attack.
Guan Yu's Azure Dragon Crescent Blade pressed down on Lu Meng's weapon, and he remembered Liu Yu's instructions and asked, "I will ask you one last time, do you surrender or not?"
Lu Meng's face flushed red, and it was obvious that the pressure of the weapon was too much for him to bear.
Facing Guan Yu's question, Lu Meng directly refused: "Guan Yu, don't say more. I have received great favor from my lord, how can I surrender to others?"
There was a hint of admiration in Guan Yu's eyes, but the Green Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand did not stop. He turned it lightly, and the blade formed an arc and chopped directly towards his neck. Lu Meng was shocked and turned around to block it.
Unexpectedly, Guan Yu did not wait for his moves to become old, and the Green Dragon Crescent Blade changed from chopping to slashing, sticking to Lu Meng's weapon, a cold light flashed, and the cold light fell on Lu Meng's neck, and Lu Meng's head was separated from his body in an instant.
Guan Yu's strong and slender right arm suddenly stretched forward, as swift and powerful as a dragon emerging from the sea.
In the blink of an eye, he held Lu Meng's head firmly in his hands.
At this moment, scarlet blood gushed out from the wound of the severed head like a burst dam, flowing like a blood-red fountain.
Thick blood kept flowing down the edge of the head, like dark red snakes, winding their way downstream.
Wherever the blood went, it turned into a shocking blood red. Even the ground under Guan Yu's feet was not spared and was instantly soaked, as if it had just been baptized by a bloody rainstorm.
"Lü Meng has been beheaded. Put down your weapons and you will be spared!"
The death of Lu Meng destroyed the morale of most of the soldiers, but it also aroused greater fighting spirit among the guards.
Only after all these personal guards were killed was the battle completely settled.
When Guan Yu brought back Lu Meng's head, Liu Yu still felt a little regretful. He had wanted to recruit Lu Meng into his army and use him for his own purposes, but who knew that Lu Meng would refuse to surrender and eventually died.
Jia Xu looked at Lü Meng's head and said, "My lord, you can send Lü Meng's head to Sun Quan to destroy the morale of the Wu County garrison."
Liu Yu nodded. Since he was already dead, he would naturally make the most of his role.
Liu Yu immediately ordered his men to send Lu Meng's head to Wu County.
When Sun Quan received Lu Meng's head, he fell to the ground.
He was stunned and speechless, staring at Lu Meng's head in silence.
After a while, Sun Quan's crying was finally heard.
"How sad it is, Ziming! How pity it is, Ziming! You were a young hero, but you were murdered by a traitor. I will definitely avenge you."
Zhang Zhao stood aside with a look of sadness on his face, and then disappeared without a trace.
He picked up the letter sent by Liu Yu, read it, and became more determined in his thoughts.
"My lord, Ziming led 30,000 elite troops, but in one battle, 20,000 were killed, and the remaining 10,000 were also subdued by Uncle Liu. Now most of Jiangdong's elite troops have been lost. It will be very difficult for my lord to seek revenge!"
Sun Quan stopped crying and said in a deep voice: "When my elder brother first conquered Jiangdong, he had only a few thousand soldiers. Now I have tens of thousands of soldiers. If we talk about this kind of conditions, I am much better off than my elder brother was back then."
Zhang Zhao shook his head and said, "My lord, this is a different time. Now that Emperor Liu has besieged Wu County, our lives are hanging by a thread. How can we have a chance to conquer the world?"
"I have already thought about this. I can surrender to Uncle Liu, just like my elder brother served Yuan Shu. I can serve Uncle Liu and wait for the opportunity. As long as there is an opportunity, I will use the long sword in my hand to stab Uncle Liu's chest fiercely, avenge Ziming, and also avenge the dead Jiangdong children."
Looking at the ambitious Sun Quan, Zhang Zhao's eyes were full of worry.
“Uncle Liu is not Yuan Shu. Although he is young, he has already reached the peak of political schemes and scheming. Otherwise, he would not have been able to gather so many talents in such a short time.
My lord, if you want to find opportunities under such a person, it will probably be countless times more difficult than when you were fighting against the rebellion general."
"Of course I understand this. When it comes to bravery and fighting, and taking down castles and strongholds, my elder brother is far better than me. But when it comes to perseverance and patience, I am better than him. So I can wait, whether it's ten years or twenty years."
"Ziming is brave and unyielding, loyal and dedicated, which is the duty of a minister. My lord, as a ruler, does not need to do so."
"This time it's not just for Ziming, but also for the tens of thousands of soldiers who died in Jiangdong, and for the spirits of my father and brother in heaven."
Zhang Zhao frowned slightly and fell into deep thought. Sun Quan had only been the ruler of Wu for a short time, but Zhang Zhao had already noticed many outstanding qualities and traits in him.
These qualities make Sun Quan stand out from other princes.
Among them, forbearance is one of Sun Quan's most outstanding characteristics.
What Sun Quan said was true. If we simply talk about forbearance, he is indeed much better than his brother Sun Ce. It can even be said that he is completely overwhelming.
But Zhang Zhao was not at ease. After all, the enemy he had to face was Uncle Liu. Even if he could endure humiliation and be calm and experienced, what use would it be if the situation did not change?
