Chapter 775: Awakening of Sun Quan
"... "
Sun Quan looked at the guy who was holding up the white chess piece and jumping into the water alone to swim towards him.
"Let him come over, I want to see what they are up to!" Sun Quan pondered for a moment and gave the order, allowing the other party to board the ship.
"Archers, get ready. Once I give the order, shoot him like a sieve!"
Sun Quan sneered. If the other side was planning to feign surrender, he would show them a big treasure.
The archers that Sun Ce gave him were not ordinary archers. There were 200 veterans from the Shesheng Battalion. They were the strongest ones, and each of them was a sharpshooter.
Even if two hundred arrows of will at such a close distance could not kill him, it would be enough to give Sun Quan time to launch his legion attack. By then, feigning surrender would be just asking for death.
"Respected strong man of the Han Empire, please forgive our offense. I have beheaded the foolish Sasajiro. Please accept our surrender!"
Matsugi Ikawa surrendered to Sun Quan using the classic Dogeza technique.
"???"
Sun Quan was completely confused. He didn't have the ability to leave his body, nor did he understand such advanced methods as spiritual communication. Naturally, he couldn't understand the Japanese dialect.
"General, he surrenders to you. That head belongs to the leader of the other side!"
Just when Sun Quan was confused, a centurion stood up.
"You also understand Japanese?" Sun Quan couldn't help but look sideways, what a talented person.
"I know a little bit. I followed General Huangfu to fight against Japanese bandits along the coast, and I learned some Japanese!"
"Tell them that I accept their surrender and ask them how they ended up like this!" Sun Quan nodded and gave the order.
The centurion Jiliwa was communicating with Songmu Ikawa for a long time, and after a long while, the centurion stopped.
"General, they were defeated by a group of pirates. It sounds like General Gan Ning's style!" The centurion gave a brief report.
"They said there was a Japanese water fort ahead. They had planned to rest on the island before us and then return to the water fort for supplies, but they didn't expect to be intercepted by us."
"Water stronghold?" Sun Quan's eyes lit up. "Ask them how much strength the water stronghold has and whether we can take it!"
Sun Quan was tempted. If he relied on the Japanese captives in front of him, could they directly contribute the water fort?
"Sir, they said the water fort is not big and has only more than 2,000 people!" The centurion quickly received the information.
"God helps me!" Sun Quan was overjoyed. He didn't expect that he could get another credit.
Compared with his previous miserable life, this sea world is simply a paradise. Once he captures this water fort, he will definitely impress Sun Ce.
…
About a month later, Sun Ce received a report from Sun Quan.
"Gongjin, take a look at Zhongmou's report. Isn't it very well done? It turns out that I didn't put any pressure on him before. Now this kid has achieved so many results!"
Sun Ce was overjoyed. His incompetent younger brother had always been a concern for him. Unexpectedly, after releasing him this time, Sun Quan seemed to have awakened. He won battles one after another and completed the tasks assigned to him by Zhou Yu very well.
"Zhongmou can actually achieve this level?" Zhou Yu was also a little surprised.
Although he did not have the domineering aura of Sun Ce, Sun Quan was actually quite heroic when he was on his own.
"General Xu is a really good fortune teller. I thought Sun Quan was just an average guy, but I didn't expect him to be a hidden dragon in the abyss. And the opportunity for him to soar to the sky was actually above the ocean. How unpredictable things really are!"
It’s no wonder that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce were amazed. Sun Quan won battle after battle and had more and more people under his command.
Originally, there were only more than 4,000 people allocated by Sun Ce, but now he has tens of thousands of people under his command, and has become a strong force.
"Well, in this case, we can assign a task to Zhongmou. It just so happens that there is no one on hand who can handle it. I was originally planning to let you go, but now it might be a good idea to let Zhongmou give it a try?"
Zhou Yu murmured to himself. To be honest, there were very few surprises for a wise man like him, and the rise of Sun Quan was one of them.
"Then let Zhongmou go. We, the Sun family, are not afraid of any challenge!" Sun Ce smiled confidently, not considering at all how important the mission was that Zhou Yu said no one could handle it and only he had to go.
After Zhou Yu compared Sun Quan with Sun Ce, the standard was raised a lot.
In Zhou Yu's speculation, Sun Ce could complete the task with the 4,000 men he had before, because he was Sun Ce.
Sun Quan now has more than 10,000 men under his command. Even if Sun Quan is not as good as Sun Ce, it should not be a problem for him to complete a "simple task".
…
"Puff~" The fish soup that Sun Quan had just drunk into his mouth sprayed out directly. He couldn't understand what his elder brother was going to do.
He worked so hard to do so many things, but the other side just threw a new task at him lightly. If it was an ordinary task, it would be fine, but look at what kind of task .
"Launch a surprise attack on the Japanese ports and force the Japanese to invest more manpower in this sea area!" The messenger repeated Zhou Yu's order.
There was only deep despair in Sun Quan's eyes. He could sense the crisis in this order without even using his instinct.
And when he used his instinctive perception, the malice coming from Japan almost overwhelmed him.
After repeatedly checking the order brought by the messenger, Sun Quan closed his eyes in despair.
However, after playing badly for a long time, Sun Quan finally completed his psychological construction. After all, he had not just set out to sea. More than a dozen victories, big and small, had allowed him to accumulate a lot of confidence.
"It's just a small Japanese port, let's kill him!"
"Matsumu Ichikawa, Falqis, assemble your troops and follow me!" After Sun Quan gave the order, the fleet under his command started moving.
To be honest, Sun Quan is after all a local monarch, a ruler who guards the land. From this aspect, he still has the aura of a king.
After all, in history, there are few ministers who can win over Lu Su. Although he is not as good as Sun Ce, Sun Quan has recruited many talents at sea.
Falqis is his number one general, a man with internal energy from the Naga tribe, and one of the men Sun Quan conquered with his domineering aura.
He also brought a Naga army of more than a thousand people to join Sun Quan's army, giving Sun Quan an elite navy under his command.
These Nagas can actually breathe in water and are much better adapted to life in water than humans.
As for Matsugi Ikawa, he seemed to be impressed by Sun Quan's domineering spirit and helped Sun Quan fight without regard for his own life. At one point, he almost died in the battle. It was no exaggeration to say that they were die-hards. Sun Quan promoted these two people to deputy generals.
“Huh~”
Feeling the growing malice ahead, the expression on Sun Quan's face became more and more solemn.
For him, it was a big challenge to go deep into enemy territory and cause sabotage.
