Feeling the murderous aura and pressure from Sun Tu, Peng Yongzhen felt even more panicked. The hypocritical smile on his face completely froze, and he said in a sincere voice: "Sun Qianxia, please listen to me explain. But there is some misunderstanding. Unless I am a brother, I will not help your soldiers. It is really... is..." At this point, he couldn't help but hesitate a little.
"What is it?" Sun Tu shouted immediately, and he could tell. With this person's courage, there is really no reason for him to repeatedly do things against his own army, and then think about the other party's behavior when he set out from Jinling. Attitude, as well as his eagerness to order someone to call the military counselor just now, the answer is already obvious.
Just when he had made a judgment in his mind and had not yet asked, the low hanging curtain was quickly lifted, and then a person lowered his head and entered, saying: "Sun Qian is so domineering, how dare he do this to my general? Are you trying to deceive me into having no one in the Huainan army?"
With just this sentence, Sun Tu and the Huainan Army were quickly put into confrontation. At the same time, the faces of several Huainan Army generals who followed him changed and they stared at them with indignation. It seemed that as long as Peng Yongzhen gave the order, They will kill them without hesitation.
But his provocative words did not make Sun Tu angry. He just looked at the visitor thoughtfully. This was a man in his thirties and an extraordinary man. At first glance, he was different from those mediocre people in the army. , a pair of triangular eyes are shining, hiding ambition and strategy.
Peng Yongzhen's performance was even more disappointing. When he saw him coming, he said anxiously as if he had seen a savior: "Counsellor Zhao, are you here? Sun Qianha is here to inquire about Changzhou's post-war military reports and winter clothes and bedding." , please explain it for me!" He actually pushed all the problems onto this subordinate.
Not to mention Sun Tu's secret frown, even the other lieutenant generals felt a little embarrassed. They all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Sun Tu again. Counselor Zhao, on the other hand, calmly accepted the facts, nodded slightly, and then chose a seat to sit down. Then he looked at Sun Tu and said: "Is Sun Qian coming here to question the enemy? Yes, that battle report is indeed mine. I am the one who strongly advocated not supplying clothes and quilts to the Shandong Army. Is there any problem with this?"
Before Sun Tu could speak, he quickly continued: "The battle in Changzhou was originally due to the lack of strength of your Shandong Army. As a result, the rebel army was able to escape easily. Could it be that Sun Qianji and your men didn't Should I bear the blame? Because of this, I would suggest that my general not give Shandong military uniforms and be supported!"
This response was really unexpected by Sun Tu. He originally thought that the other party would have to quibble first, but unexpectedly he answered so quickly and answered all the questions at once. In this way, Sun Tu was caught off guard, and the words he had prepared were useless for a moment. He could only stare at the opponent with squinted eyes, but Counselor Zhao was not afraid and looked back calmly, with a look of sincerity. A look of no shame.
This is considered meeting an opponent. Sun Tu quickly came to his senses. This man was so powerful. No wonder he could make Peng Yongzhen do what he wanted. Moreover, if he dared to do all this, he must be relying on someone, and his identity could never be as simple as a military counselor. .
After suppressing the anger in his heart and calming down, Sun Tu's lips curled up: "Counsellor Zhao, right?"
, when did you join the Huainan Army? Why have I never seen you before? "
"To be honest with Sun Qian, I was in the Huainan Army just before the Changzhou War. Before, I served under Zhu Shuai. Because of his humble position and low position, he never gained the general's discernment." Zhao Siliang agreed. Decisively, he immediately confessed his origins.
This made Sun Tu secretly take a breath. Although he had already guessed, he still felt a chill when the answer appeared. No wonder this person had such courage, and Peng Yongzhen obeyed his words again, because in the final analysis, this person represented what Zhu Meng meant.
Eyes slightly lowered, Sun Tu whispered again: "You said that the battle in Changzhou was due to our Shandong Army's mistakes that led to the failure to fulfill its mission?"
"Yes, I was in the army at the time and saw all this with my own eyes." Zhao Siliang nodded without hesitation, but Peng Yongzhen over there lowered his eyes with some guilt, and no longer had the courage to look at Sun Tu. .
As soon as he saw his reaction, Sun Tu knew that Zhao Siliang was lying, but just looking at his confident look, those who didn't know the truth might not find flaws. Sun Tu had no intention of further arguing with him, and just sneered: "It's ridiculous. As far as I know, the battle that day was because our Shandong Army soldiers fought desperately to save Changzhou, but the Huainan Army showed fear of war." You are so cowardly! Why do you confuse right and wrong so much?" The last sentence was shouted angrily, with great authority.
But this momentum couldn't suppress Zhao Siliang at all. He still looked calm: "You are the one who confuses right and wrong, right? Sun Qianha. You were not present at the time, how dare you make such an assertion?"
"This is what my soldiers reported..."
"Then it's even more uncountable. They are just trying to shirk the blame. Anyway, I and the Huainan Army all know clearly that the Shandong Army was responsible for the mistake that day! Even if this matter is brought to the court, it will not matter. People will believe what you say, General Sun. You must know that as the commander-in-chief at that time, you led an army to Danyang.
"I would like to ask General Sun, how much combat strength does an army have without a commander and without its elite main force? Therefore, the blame for the loss of Changzhou naturally lies with you, the Shandong Army, and everything I retaliate for is Is the truth!"
If he had not believed that Dong Ping and the others would never lie to him about this matter, and also knew that the Shandong Army's combat power was far stronger than the Huainan Army, Sun Tu would have been convinced by the other party's words. I didn’t expect this guy to be so eloquent, and he also keenly grasped the biggest problem of the Shandong Army. As the head coach, Sun Tu was not in the army, thus settling the matter...
As Zhao Siliang said, if this matter really starts a lawsuit, I am afraid more people will believe that the fault lies with the Shandong Army. In addition, Zhu Meng and those in power in the court are thinking of taking action against Sun Tu and the Shandong Army. , so this injustice really cannot be washed away.
After a moment of silence, Sun Tu laughed angrily: "Okay, great! Counselor Zhao really has a sharp tongue, I admire him. It's really too humiliating for a person like you to only be a counselor in the army. You should be allowed to go and fight with him." Liao Xia and other countries should negotiate to get some benefits for us, the Song Dynasty."
"Sun Qianha was ridiculous, I was just following orders..."
"Do you think I'm complimenting you?" Sun Tu shouted loudly, interrupting this complacent speech: "You
Do you think that you can confuse right and wrong by just relying on words, and that there will be nothing you can do about it? No matter how sharp your lips and tongue are, can they be as sharp as the knife in my hand? Do you believe it or not, I will kill you right now to avenge the murdered brothers in my camp! "As Sun Tu said, he stood up from the ground, stepped forward, and wanted to pick him up.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Siliang's reaction was extremely fast. When he saw Sun Tu rushing towards him, he pressed his hand on the ground. Without getting up, he actually moved back several feet, just in time to dodge the grab, and his face was even more exposed. A sarcastic smile came: "Sun Qianha, a gentleman talks but never moves!"
Sun Tu's move failed and he was stunned for a moment. Only then did he realize that Zhao Siliang actually had good martial arts skills. No wonder he was so confident that he dared to confront him tit for tat.
Seeing Sun Tu stunned, Zhao Siliang even gave an order: "Come here, capture this man. He dared to try to assassinate officials in my camp. He is really committing a heinous crime!" He actually planned to turn against him and take action.
The generals were stunned and looked at their commander unconsciously, only to find that Peng Yongzhen was as unresponsive as a clay sculpture at this time, apparently acquiescing that Zhao Siliang had the final say in everything here.
The two soldiers who reacted first shouted immediately and jumped towards Sun Tu, really wanting to capture him on the spot. But at this time, Sun Tu had already come to his senses. How could he be restrained by these two people? He just raised his hand and drew out his palm like a knife. With two bangs, he cut into their chests, making the two of them groan. Flying upside down and falling to the ground.
"Sun Tu, you not only committed crimes, but also resisted arrest. It seems that you are indeed stubborn and your crime will not be pardoned!" As he shouted, Zhao Siliang rushed forward in person, and a short blade in his hand was pointed at Sun Tu's chest at a strange angle. Chest.
Sun Tu frowned and quickly took half a step back, with murderous intent in his eyes: "What a good guy, you have evil intentions for a long time, and you are armed with a sharp blade!" He punched the opponent in the arm. At the bend, he missed the terrible knife. At the same time, he made a mistake in his steps, and his body was quickly attached to him, but he had to fight closely with it.
When Sun Tulu came to see Peng Yongzhen, he really had no intention of falling out with him, because in his mind, he was strong enough to convince him, so he didn't even bring any weapons with him. But he didn't expect that someone who really wanted to kill him would appear here, so he was a little passive now.
Although Zhao Siliang was more than a step behind Sun Tu in terms of martial arts, his strange short-blade moves were so desperate that Sun Tu was unable to fully display his strengths, and for a while he was somewhat at a disadvantage. And after fighting a few moves at close range, Sun Tu also noticed something. The short blade was actually flashing with a faint blue light, which was obviously poisoned. As long as the skin was scratched by the knife, the consequences would be extremely serious. This made him even more afraid to be careless and more conservative in his movements, so he could only be beaten passively.
"What are you doing standing still, why don't you take action against this traitor!" A storm-like attack failed to hurt Sun Tu at all, and Zhao Siliang saw that there was a big gap between himself and Sun Tu, so he shouted again. , urging others to join forces with them to attack.
After hearing the order, the generals finally gritted their teeth and pounced on Sun Tu from the side, forming an encirclement with Zhao Siliang, but putting Sun Tu into a rare danger.
Who would have thought that the situation that was thought to be a safe one would suddenly turn around and turn into a trap...
