Chapter 166 – Sun Ce Become Shameless Once More - Use Liu Mang As Borrowed Knife To Kill n.o.bles
Translated by Bloodfalcon

With those events that transpired, soon the dark of the night become light of dawn. And with the sound of c.o.c.k coocooing, it is just like death’s footsteps and he has already knocking the door, asking for Wancheng city's defenders lives.

So Liu Mang and co know right now in a very dire strait. But even then, he still need to rouse their morale and so he yelled his speech "TODAY, WE WILL DECIDE WHO ARE THE ONE GOING TO DIE, THOSE WHO ARE OUTSIDE OF WANCHENG CITY OR US!!!! ALL OF YOU, DO NOT WORRY ABOUT A THING, IF WE MANAGED TO SURVIVE THIS BATTLE, THIS LIU MANG WILL RECOGNIZE YOUR CONTRIBUTION IN THIS BATTLE AND WILL NAME YOU A HERO, AND WILL DEFINITELY TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILIES AS MY FAMILY!!! IF WE DIE, THIS LIU MANG WILL ALSO ACCOMPANY YOU TO h.e.l.l AND I WILL BEAR ALL OF YOUR SIN WITH ME!!!! TOGETHER, WE SHARE LIFE AND DEATH!!! TOGETHER, WE SHARE RICHES AND HONOR!!!!" With Liu Mang words, all of remaining Urban Army, Black Flag, Huang Zhong and Huang Xu roared the Urban Army slogan together.

After that speech, a messenger from Lu Bu main army revealed himself and give Liu Mang, a letter from Chen Gong. Realizing that this must be a stratagem or some kind from the military advisor, he called Liu Kai, Liu Neng, Huang Xu, Huang Zhong, Xu Sheng and Chu Jie. But when Liu Mang opened the message, it only contained notification that Lu Bu and Bing Province Heavy Cavalry will arrive in two more days and cryptic message that written like this "Ruin the body, ruin the head but never cut off the head!!!" Huang Zhong quickly understood what Chen Gong meant and said to Liu Mang "Little lord, Military Advisor Chen's letter meant, we can go on rampage and destroy Sun Ce's army, kill his generals, and even beat down Sun Ce but we must not kill Sun Ce, or the repercussion will be great!!!" Liu Mang then nodded and said "So, do you all understand this letter?" to his division leaders and they all nodded the same time. After reading the letter, Liu Mang really felt relieved that the ballista arrow yesterday did not manage to kill Sun Ce or else Zhou Yu and his mind will be his next opponent today and Liu Mang really felt a.s.sured that Chen Gong wrote that letter as he only need to persevere for two days and Lu Bu will arrive to pound back Sun Ce army.

After that event, inside Lu Bu defender army, there is not much even happening other than preparing to go to battle. But inside Sun Ce army, beside army preparation, all of n.o.bles are bickering in front of Lu Su.

"Strategist Lu. Regarding the a.s.sault this time, let this Zhao clan fight! We, of Zhao clan, have been following General Sun Ce from the very start but we yet to contribute to General Sun Ce. For our honor, please let we, of Zhao clan, to take the vanguard for today!!!" Said a middle-aged man who is wearing an extravagant cloth toward Lu Su.

Another n.o.ble is also bickering in front of Lu Su while pointing finger toward the head of Zhao clan "HEY, our Li clan also not yet contributed to General Sun Ce. We, Li clan, have more bigger debts to General Sun Ce. If not for the tip provided by the late General Zhou Tai. We already perish under that misbegotten scoundrel Liu Mang. So, if not now, then when will our Li clan can repay General Sun Ce’s kindness?!"

Another n.o.ble also rushes in front of Lu Su "We want to be vanguard too!!! We, of Bao clan, also have a big debt to General Sun Ce!!!" Those n.o.bles bickering made Lu Su’s brow tighten, because one by one started bickering like little children for the one who will be the vanguard.

Watching each one of Jiangdong n.o.bles are bickering like that, Lu Su heart is burning with anger. In Lu Su's eyes, all of them are violating two of military laws and should be executed for their offences. First violation according to Lu Su is bickering in front of strategist. Strategist rank in the army is only a rank below to commanding officer and those n.o.bles bickering in front of the strategist as if they are the one who are commanding this battle, as if Sun Ce and Lu Su are nothing in front of them. The second violation is they are dressed like they are celebrating victory. All of them are wearing gold accessories and n.o.ble clothes, none of them are wearing battle suit at all. This is really disrespecting the soldiers and generals who are fighting the battle. Even Liu Mang who came from the future did not dare to violate this unwritten absolute rule.

Lu Su's anger is not just based on those two violations. He is also angry because all of them are withholding their soldiers during yesterday's siege. If all of them go all out, Wancheng city will be able to be overtaken in just one day, but they instead withhelding their forces saying that they are still traumatized because of Wu clan's defeat due to the failure of recapturing Wancheng city naval base and due to that, Sun Ce's core army suffered big casualties, they even lost half of their Danyang soldiers.

So, it can be concluded that these n.o.bles only want the spoil of the war. With Wancheng city defenders has been destroyed until only lasting 2,000 troops (as per Lu Su's manipulated intel) meaning that they are unable to maintain defense any longer and will be crushed in one fell swoop, so they want to grab as much merit as they can. Provided that almost all of Wancheng city's n.o.bles already extinguished, so all of them see Wancheng city, the capital of Lujiang Prefecture as a big piece of cake and whoever is the vanguard will be able to get a big portion of it.

Who in their right mind would reject if given such a fertile prefecture? When they captured Wancheng city, they can quickly create a branch of their own clan's business in this place. So right now, they are drooling in their imagination.

"HUMPH!!!!" Lu Su can only responded with cold humph to their bickering because no matter how much anger and grievances has acc.u.mulated in his heart, he still must respect them as he is also one of n.o.bles and right now, he cannot afford to make anyone his enemies especially not of Jiangdong n.o.bles.

Lu Su then responded after taking deep breath "I am unable to decide
