Three Kingdoms: I help Liu Bei grow thousands of miles

Chapter 345

Lu Meng noticed that the guards along the way looked solemn, and when he walked to the school grounds, he found that Sun Quan's face was even more livid. He wondered if the lord was depressed because he hadn't shot for a long time and was bored.

"My lord is overjoyed, Liu Bei took the initiative to bow his head." Lu Meng reported with a smile.

Annunciation?Sun Quan's already ugly face collapsed even more, and he asked coldly, "Why do you like it? How can Liu Bei bow his head?"

Lu Meng beamed brightly and said: "Liu Bei is forced by my military power in Jiangdong, and Cao Ren in the north sent troops to attack Jiangling. Now he takes the initiative to admit defeat and surrender Jiangxia to seek peace."

Sun Quan admired Liu Bei's tolerance for humiliation, but he was really not in a happy mood now. He shook his head and snorted coldly after hearing this: "Forced by the military power? Ziming knew that Cheng Gong was wiped out in Changsha? Ling Gongji was beheaded by Gan Ning in front of the formation, Huang Gong The five thousand cavalry led by Fu are nowhere to be found."

"My lord is joking with me? How is this possible?" Lu Meng noticed that Sun Quan's face was heavy when he spoke, and finally felt that the lord was not joking with him, so he asked again: "Is what the lord said true? Where did you get the news from?"

Sun Quan looked up at the sky: "Chenggong sent someone to send the news that there are [-] elite soldiers including Gongji, and only a few dozen horses left to return to Jianchang."

"This is totally unreasonable. Jingnan doesn't have that many troops at all. I sent someone to investigate when Jiangxia was planned. Except that Lingling's tone was too strict and I didn't find out. There are only a few thousand people in Changsha and Guiyang counties. Still garrisoning in various places, Cheng Gong let alone annihilated the whole army, even if it is defeated, it will be very difficult." The more Lu Meng said, the more he felt that something was wrong.

Sun Quan nodded, "The person who came here didn't explain this matter clearly. I have sent my relatives to Jianchang to express my condolences. I just want to ask about it."

"My lord, please rest assured, it might be a misrepresentation," Lu Meng comforted.

Sun Quanxu raised his eyes: "Zi Ming, do you think this is Liu Bei's conspiracy? He intentionally asked Fu Shiren to surrender to me in Jiangdong, and then set up an ambush in Jingnan?"

Lu Meng swallowed his saliva, and Sun Quan dragged himself into the water like this. After all, he was the planner and implementer of this conspiracy, so he quickly explained for Liu Bei: "Liu Bei has been in Chengdu for two years, how could he treat Jingzhou? Know it clearly? I think this incident should be accidental, unless someone really has insight into the secret."

Sun Quan frowned, "In the past, Gongjin admired Zhuge Liang very much, and said that this person has unpredictable abilities. Could it be that he has figured out something?"

"The theory of ghosts and gods is all false. Now Cao Ren's army is approaching Jiangling, and Cao Cao's main force has also moved to Runan. At the end of the day, I came to ask for instructions on the order of the governor, and I suggested that the lord wait a little longer, and when Guan Yu can't bear the pressure, he will naturally cede the land." Lu Meng suggested.

"What if Guan Yu doesn't make concessions?" Sun Quan asked back.

Lu Meng shook his head one after another: "This is absolutely impossible. There are Ziheng (Lu Fan) and Ziqi (Wei Jing) in the south. If Chenggong is really defeated, the opponent must have assembled the strength of the three southern counties. The strength of Jiaozhou is not enough." Much less than Chenggong."

Sun Quan nodded: "If that's the case, wait a little longer. The people I sent to Jianchang will also take time. You can excuse that Jianye is too far to go back and forth, and it will take a long time to come and ask for instructions."

"My lord is wise, I will go back to find the commander-in-chief first." Lu Meng clasped his fists in compliment, he had originally planned to do so.

After Lu Meng's explanation, the worry on Sun Quan's eyebrows eased slightly.

It was already dark when Lu Meng returned to the front line, and Lu Su even specially asked someone to leave dinner for him.

"Knowing that Ziming will rush back overnight, what will he say when he sees the lord?" Lu Su asked with a smile.

"My lord, let us cool off first. How can negotiations be concluded so quickly." Lu Meng walked into the main tent and found that there were fish on the table, so he asked in surprise, "Where did the governor get the fish?"

Lu Su smiled and said, "I caught two big fish in the river this afternoon, and I left one for you to eat."

Lu Meng suddenly remembered the horse meat that Guan Yu gave him, and then thought of the conversation Sun Quan had with him in Lukou in the afternoon. Lv Meng couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat, and then murmured: "Go to Lukou today to see the lord, and he told me that Cheng Gong was defeated. The whole army was wiped out, how can this be possible, Commander-in-Chief? Guan Yu must be spreading rumors in the rear.”

Lu Su was shocked when he heard that, he stepped forward and grabbed Lu Meng's hand: "Tell me the details."

Lu Meng understood that although Lu Su was too prudent, his analysis of the situation was second to none in Jiangdong, so he paraphrased Sun Quan's words intact.

Lu Su was shocked when he heard the news. When he heard the news that Ling Tong was killed and Huang Gai was missing, his eyes suddenly became moist, and then he remembered that Guan Yu had sent horse meat. Do you think the horse meat sent by General Riguan might be General Huang’s war horse?”

"This..." Lu Meng was stunned, he knew that this possibility was extremely high.

Lu Su smiled wryly and said: "Old General Huang probably has a lot of bad luck. I will go to Lukou in person tomorrow morning and ask my lord to agree to Liu Xuande immediately. Let's take Jiangxia smoothly and accept it as soon as we are good. We can't waste time here."

"The governor should not be in a hurry. The Lord just sent someone to Jianchang to verify the situation. Let us continue to hold Guan Yu and wait for his news. In addition, Jiangling is facing Cao Cao's attack. Even if Cheng Gong suffered a defeat in Changsha, Lu Ziheng should have some help in Jiaozhou." Harvest, if you wait a little longer, Guan Yu may make bigger concessions." Lu Meng hurriedly stopped.

Lu Su shook his head and sighed softly: "Ziming, you are so confused. Those who went to Jianchang were Jiangdong's elites. Even Chenggong has been wiped out. How can Ziheng's Jiaozhou soldiers take advantage?"

"Perhaps Chenggong and Ziheng did not march in the same way, so when Changsha was attacked, Guiyang sent troops to support it. Perhaps Ziheng and Ziqi had already captured Guiyang, which is a large mining county in Jingzhou." Lu Meng reminded.

"My lord, just wait. Ziming rests early after eating. I'm a little tired and I'll go to bed first." Lu Su sighed and walked out of the tent, looking back at the shadow illuminated by the candlelight and shaking his head. Lu Su, who had always been steady, seemed a little pessimistic.

Lu Su didn't know about this matter until Lukou. At that time, Sun Quan paid homage to Zhou Yu and said the overall plan. It really felt a bit majestic, but now it's backfired.

Lu Meng looked at the fish in the bowl in the tent, and recalled Lu Su's guess about the horse meat just now, and instantly felt that the meat in front of him was no longer tasty, so he had better go to bed early, anyway, there was everything in the dream.

The Jiangdong side deliberately delayed. As Guan Yu expected, since the danger in the southern counties was lifted, he focused on the northern part of Jiangling.

Fortunately, Zhao Yun entered the arena in time to relieve the pressure, otherwise Guan Yu might let Su Fei stay in Dongting and go back to defeat Cao Ren first.

On the second day after Zhao Yun landed in Jiangling, Guan Yu also welcomed new guests in Shuizhai. Lan Tian and Lai Gong rushed to Dongting Lake by fast boat.

Guan Yu was famous for his loyalty and bravery, and Lai Gong kept praising him when he saw him. Guan Yu looked at Lan Tian and couldn't help but nodded, as if saying that this guy was very polite.
