Three Kingdoms, I open a tavern in Xudu

"Zian, Brazil is very important to us, I want you to lead the troops there, is that okay?" Cao Cao asked again.

"Of course no problem. Yun Chang will go out with me, and Zilong will stay to deal with Ma Chao." Chen Yang nodded.

Xu Chu also only fought Ma Chao in an even match, and there was no way to win a complete victory. In addition, Zhang Fei was in Badong, so Zhao Yun was still left to suppress the two of them.

"Yes!"

Guan Yu and Zhao Yun responded in unison.

Cao Cao's army was stationed at the foot of Badong City, Zhuge Liang did not dare to fight rashly, and in the past few days, the barracks were safe and sound.

a few days later.

"Prime Minister, there is news from Xiangyang that Zhou Gongjin has died of illness."

Xia Houyuan hurriedly walked into Cao Cao's account.

Zhou Yu died of illness, and the news spread throughout the entire military camp in an instant.

Chen Yang looked in the direction of Xiangyang for a long time, thinking that he would not be able to survive in the end, thinking that he and Zhou Yu first met in Xudu, and then they also had conflicts of interest, cooperated again, and even had various conflicts. A misunderstanding, and finally became friends.

To be honest, it is a pity for Chen Yang that Zhou Yu died young. If he was still alive, this era would be much more exciting.

With Zhou Yu's death, what will happen to the internal conflicts in the Sun family?

"Zian, I know Zhou Gongjin and you are good friends, why don't I tell Miaocai to fetch Brazil, and you should go back to Xiangyang to have a look." Cao Cao said.

"No, going back will only add to the helplessness."

Chen Yang thought for a moment, then took out a kit prepared in advance, and said, "Prime Minister, you send someone to deliver the kit to Zhang Wenyuan, and then ask him to gather Li Mancheng and Le Wenqian to garrison Wancheng first. When something happens in Wancheng and you don't know what to do, there will be a way to open the kit."

Wancheng, a city near Hefei, is also not far from Shouchun.

"Zian, are you worried that if Zhou Yu dies of illness, the Sun family will make trouble?" Cao Cao asked.

"There must be conflicts within the Sun family. If it affects us, we must be careful." Chen Yang said.

Cao Cao didn't object. He wrote the letter first, and then ordered someone to send the kit and the letter to Zhang Liao. It must be done quickly.

Chen Yang added: "In addition, General Huang can be transferred back from Changsha to support Guanzhong, Zhang Fei can retreat from Changsha, and leave Wei Wenchang and Gan Xingba in Changsha."

After a while, it is very likely that it will be the Battle of Hanzhong. Huang Zhong and Guan Yu are the most important in this battle, and of course Xia Houyuan and the others are also the same.

At this time, Zhang Liao's army was stationed in Yingchuan, and their Northern Expedition army was about to approach the former Xudu.

As long as you work harder, you can take back Xudu, which is already in ruins.

Li Dian and Le Jin were stationed in Qiao County and Xiaopei respectively, preparing to unite with the Sun family to recover Xuzhou.

Zhang Liao received Cao Cao's order and a bag of advice. He hesitated for a while, and had to lead his troops to Wancheng first, and then ordered someone to convey Cao Cao's order to gather Li Dian and Le Jin near Wancheng.

When Zhang Liao arrived in Wancheng, winter had already entered, and the temperature near the Yangtze River basin gradually dropped, but there was no snow.

Li Dian and Le Jin braved the cold wind and came from a long distance. When the latter saw Zhang Liao, he directly asked, "Wen Yuan, why do you do this?"

Li Dian said suspiciously: "We are preparing to recover Xuzhou. Wen Yuan, you suddenly sent the prime minister's military order to let us come to Wancheng. If you neglect Xuzhou's military situation, will you be convicted?"

Zhang Liao could only take out Cao Cao's documents and said, "This is the prime minister's idea. It is said that the Sun family will make trouble. Let us be here just in case. The person who proposed this plan is General Chen."

Hearing that it was Chen Yang's scheme, they didn't dare to question anything.

After all, the ability of magic calculation is well known, they can't match it, they can only wait in Wancheng.

-

Zhou Yu was also from Lujiang. After he died of illness, his body was sent back to Lujiang for burial. His family members almost fainted from crying.

Sun Shao seemed to admire and appreciate Zhou Yu very much, but also very sad.

He personally guarded Zhou Yu's spirit for several days before leaving Lujiang and returning to Wujun.

Because of Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan was hit hard, and he was not in the mood to go out again. He ordered Lu Meng, Ding Feng, and Zhou Tai to guard Shouchun, and then let Han Dang, Lu Fan, and Tai Shici lead their own troops to attack from Linhuai. Huaiyin, unite with Cao Jun to recover Xuzhou as soon as possible.

Although Sima Yi had to fight the Xianbei people, with the help of Xianbei from the east, the pressure was not too great.

In the end, Sima Yi was still able to allocate part of his troops to resist Cao's army in the Northern Expedition.

In addition, Cao Jun's progress was not in a hurry, which happened to give Sima Yi enough time to respond.

Sun Shao returned to Wu County and went directly to see Sun Quan.

"uncle!"

Sun Shao arched his hands and asked again: "Do you still remember the agreement between us and Uncle Gongjin?"

Sun Ce is the founder of Jiangdong, Sun Quan is the developer, and Sun Shao can be regarded as the long-awaited successor later.

At present, the contradiction between them is becoming more and more obvious. If the successor wants to snatch the achievements of the developer, of course he cannot obey.

The agreement Sun Shaozhong mentioned was actually Zhou Yu's voluntary promise that if he was not around, Sun Quan should return the Jiangdong that Sun Ce had laid the foundation for to Sun Shao.

Zhou Yu just wanted to dissolve this contradiction and maintain the current stability. He didn't expect that not long after making this promise, he fell seriously ill.

"Of course I remember, it's just that the situation is unstable now, and passing the position hastily, I'm worried that it will lead to turmoil in Jiangdong."

Sun Quan pondered for a while, and said, "I'll discuss this matter with you after a while, when everything has stabilized."

Sun Shao didn't persist and continue, but just nodded and said, "Thank you uncle for your success."

Then, he stepped back.

Sun Quan felt more and more uneasy, so he called Zhang Zhao and Lu Su over and told them these things.

The two frowned at the same time. If this kind of thing is not handled well, it will be a huge trouble.

"My lord, what are you going to do?" Zhang Zhao asked.

"The subordinates believe that Jiangdong's current scale is the result of the lord's own efforts. Sun Shao is only a junior and has not made any achievements. Why should he ask the lord to return everything?" Lu Su shook his head, firmly expressing his opposition.

Zhang Zhao said helplessly: "If Gong Jin is still there, he must have a way to maintain the balance."

As soon as these words came out, they all let out a long sigh.

Sun Quan said: "If there is no big brother, there would be no Jiangdong now. I should return it because of emotion and reason. I just managed it on my behalf before."

Lu Su insisted on his own thoughts, and said again: "I suggest that my lord should not return it."

Of course Sun Quan didn't want to return them, otherwise he wouldn't have brought them here to discuss. He just wanted a suitable reason.

Zhang Zhao is a smart man, he has read Sun Quan's mind, and said: "Sun Shao is young and energetic, how can he know how to manage Jiangdong? Returning it, I am afraid it will destroy the unity of Jiangdong, and the subordinates think that it cannot be returned."

Lu Su continued: "Gong Jin's body is not yet cold, so it's inconvenient to talk about these things. For this reason, Sun Shao can be rejected."

"What Zijing said makes sense!"

Sun Quan nodded slightly, and went directly to make arrangements according to their suggestions.
