"Ah..." The shrill screams mixed with blood shot into the air at the same time. Zhu Meng's entire fat face was completely distorted and deformed. In addition to the physical pain, the fear, doubt, and despair in his heart... were even more overwhelming like a mountain. He couldn't believe that this was true. Sun Tu actually dared to be so cruel to him, and it was in broad daylight, in front of so many people!
The complicit generals nearby were even more stunned. At this time, they even forgot to escape or step forward to save others. They just watched in horror as Sun Tu stabbed the knife into Zhu Meng's chest and then quickly went to the other side. He drew the line down, only to hear a scoffing sound, and then directly disemboweled it. It was really no different from killing a pig or a sheep.
Zhu Meng screamed even more after receiving another horrific stab blow, then tilted his head and lost his voice. Not to mention the generals, even the officers and soldiers of the Shandong Army who had rushed in to support were so bloody that they could not recover for a long time.
The first to take action were Zhu Meng's two sons and a group of cronies. After seeing Sun Tu's cruel methods, they were not only angry but also scared. Once their backer was really killed, they would not be able to escape when Qiu Hou settled the accounts. One death! So at that moment, several people shouted angrily: "Rebel Sun Tu, everyone will kill him!" and they started to attack them frantically.
But they were too far away after all, and at this time, Sun Tu was guarded by Lu Dawusong and others. As soon as they saw them coming, several people moved quickly, and with a few swings of steel knives, they killed them one after another. After retreating, Zhu Meng's eldest son Zhu Hai, who was rushing forward, was hit in the waist and abdomen with a knife and fell down screaming.
It wasn't until this moment that the soldiers came to their senses. They immediately shouted angrily and stepped forward. With swords and spears stabbing, they had all been knocked down and controlled. Sun Tu also finished the last step at this time, and suddenly thrust the knife in his hand, smashing Zhu Meng's internal organs. But the latter could no longer even scream. He only trembled suddenly and then completely stopped moving, but he was completely dead.
"Dad..." Zhu Meng's third son, Zhu Tao, shouted again, but was immediately kicked into a gourd. Just as he was about to get up, he was slashed with a knife, which frightened him so much that he could only scream. He rolled and dodged again, so embarrassed. Others were in a similar situation. Facing these Shandong Army officers and soldiers who were raging with murderous intent, they had no ability to parry and could only dodge desperately. At the same time, they were constantly being hit. They might be stabbed at random at any time. Dismembered.
It was only then that a voice suddenly sounded from the side: "Stop! Stop everyone!"
This unfamiliar voice had no effect, and the soldiers did not react at all. However, Sun Tu, who had already let go of Zhu Meng's body, saw at a glance that it was Tong Mu who spoke. Seeing him winking at him repeatedly, he shouted: "Save their lives!"
If Sun Tu had been slower to stop, these dozen of Zhu Meng's cronies would have been killed on the spot. But now, many swords and guns stopped just a few feet away from them. And these people who were already seriously injured and exhausted also collapsed to the ground, looking at the people in front of them with fear, no longer as arrogant as before.
Everyone turned their attention to Sun Tu, and Sun Tu looked at Tong Mu to see what he had to say.
In this operation to eradicate Zhu Meng's party, Tong Mu, who had just returned to Suzhou, was also one of the important planners. Therefore, people close to Sun Tu like Luda and Tang Feng were still very familiar with him, and they were all familiar with him at this time. I looked over, with a hint of sadness in my eyes.
Confuse. Then, the generals nearby who were already confused and didn't know what to do also looked over eagerly.
The fear in their hearts reached its peak after they saw Zhu Meng being easily tortured and killed, and even his close family members were killed. Because they knew very well that as Zhu Meng's conspirators, they still had their own troops launching an offensive outside the mansion and outside the city. Once Sun Tu turned against him, they would probably die. In panic, they almost admitted their mistake and begged for mercy.
Tong Mu's eyes also swept across them, and then fell on the few people who had fallen to the ground. He pointed at Lu Bofei, whose face was as white as paper and said: "General Sun, I want to ask you for a favor. Please spare Mr. Lu's life." . He has never meant to be an enemy to you. Even if he helped Zhu Meng with some ideas, he was just his own master."
Lu Bofei thought he was going to die, but when he heard this, he felt very grateful. Especially when Sun Tu nodded and a soldier came forward to pull him out of the crowd, he was so frightened that he almost fainted. Then he glanced at Sun Tu and Tong Mu gratefully, but was speechless for a moment. Come.
It was only then that other people realized what they were doing. Zhu Meng's advisers even forced themselves to kneel down and beg for mercy: "General Sun, spare your life... We have never thought of being your enemy. Everything we did before was just for power." Forced... Mr. Tong, Mr. Tong, please help me..." After seeing Tong Mu's influence on Sun Tu, they quickly set their sights on this more familiar person.
Tong Mu did not pay attention to them, but glanced at the generals: "Everyone, I know that you were deceived by others to follow Zhu Meng to chaos in Suzhou. Now is the time for you to correct your mistakes!" At the end of the sentence! , his eyes were fixed on Zhu Meng's confidants who were still desperately begging for mercy.
Sun Tu understood his intention in an instant, raised the corner of his mouth, and said: "If you kill the enemy and perform meritorious service at this time, I can forget the blame, otherwise..."
Before he could finish his words, the dozen or twenty generals had already moved quickly. They immediately drew out their swords and attacked fiercely. The screams rang out again. Zhu Meng's two sons and a group of cronies headed by Xue Xian were immediately hacked to death on the spot, and their deaths were miserable...
Before the ordinary soldiers could figure out what the fuss was about, Luda and others had already figured it out. After looking at each other, they looked at Tong Mu with more respect in their eyes.
It turned out that even though Sun Tu had successfully killed Zhu Meng and quelled the chaos by controlling more than a dozen generals, he still had trouble getting back to the court. After all, Zhu Meng is everyone's immediate boss. One of his subordinates suddenly went into trouble and killed an important court official. This is still a serious crime. Maybe the court will immediately issue an order to arrest Sun Tu and bring him to justice.
As a result, Sun Tu's only choice was to carry it out to the end, and even directly turned against the Song Dynasty court. But can the entire Shandong Army really be the enemy of the entire country
Therefore, winning over these generals from various places and tying them onto their own pirate ships is the key. Because only by recruiting these generals from all over the country, and then recruiting more than 100,000 troops under their command, can the court be able to put a taboo on it and not dare to mess around. No matter how dissatisfied the emperor and his ministers were with this matter, in order not to cause greater trouble and prevent the chaos in Jiangnan from spreading to the whole country, they could only hold their noses and admit it.
When Sun Tu decided to do this two days ago, he had this strategy in mind, so he and his soldiers were not there.
After taking control of the situation, he attacked these generals who were obviously co-conspirators. He also planned to use coercion and inducement to pull them onto his pirate ship.
But after all, there are many consequences for doing this. He can control them for a while by relying on the current situation, but it is difficult to control everyone for a lifetime. Who knows when these people will jump into rebellion.
But now, as Tong Mu came up with such a temporary solution and forced them to personally kill Zhu Meng's two sons and a group of cronies, the situation was completely different again. Now there is no essential difference between them and Sun Tu. They also killed Zhu Meng's members and everyone's hands were stained with blood. Then they were completely tied to Sun Tu and became grasshoppers on a rope. If they didn't You may regret it in the future.
It can be said that although Tong Mu only showed up after the fact and only gave such a strategy, his contribution has already surpassed that of the soldiers who fought desperately before, and it also allowed others to have a better understanding of him. , and became more in awe of him.
It was not until everyone was hacked to death and their minds calmed down that these generals suddenly understood, and then looked at Sun Tu with even more uneasiness: "General Sun, we...we were also confused for a moment, and were forced by Zhu Meng to fight with you. We are enemies, I hope you, sir, will spare us this time..." Although they still have a hundred thousand troops outside the city, they are trapped here, with their lives in the hands of others, so they can only bow their heads.
Sun Tu dropped the steel knife that was still bleeding in his hand, and laughed loudly: "Everyone, you are serious. If you can put things right at this critical moment and come forward, you are the meritorious ministers of our Song Dynasty. How can I, Sun Tu, do it?" Why bother you again? Killing this traitor and his accomplices is to eliminate harm for the people. I will go to Shuzhi to report to the court later and state Zhu Meng's many crimes one by one. I hope you can sign on."
"Of course, of course, everything is up to General Sun." At this time, they agreed to whatever Sun Tu said, and naturally they agreed without any hesitation. It has come to this point. Everyone has blood on their hands. If they want to survive and not be blamed by the court afterwards, they should naturally cooperate with Sun Tu and put all kinds of crimes on Zhu Meng, the dead man. What's more, considering the various evil deeds Zhu Meng has committed over the years, they don't actually need to arrange them. It is enough to conclude that he has harmed the country and the people, and being killed ten times is not enough to atone for his crime.
"In that case, please go to the city wall and stop the army outside from disturbing our Suzhou." Sun Tu glanced at everyone with a half-smile and reminded.
Only then did these generals react and hurriedly agreed, and then, half-escorted and half-escorted by the Shandong Army, they went to the city wall to call a cessation of fighting.
At this time, the Song troops around Suzhou were still hesitant to besiege the city, but they did not dare to risk their lives to attack the city. It wasn't until their respective generals showed up one after another and shouted orders that the tens of thousands of people retreated in accordance with the orders. A chaos that might have led to a fight within the Song Army was finally completely eliminated.
It only took most of the night for Sun Tu to completely crush Zhu Meng's last counterattack, and also killed him, the culprit. Following the order, Zhu Meng's body was dragged to the downtown area of Suzhou and exposed for three days.
And his plump corpse was not even saved for three days. Only one or two days later, it was torn into pieces by the angry people. It was literally shattered into pieces, and no body was left intact...

A pig is killed in two days, so that I can ask for votes for two consecutive days. I am really a clever little guy...
