After being driven away by Liu Bei, Cao Cao paid homage to my chief military adviser

Chapter 70 Zhou Lang Angrily Killed Lu Ji!Deter the Jiangdong clan!
"Come on, let's serve tea!"

Zhou Yu returned to his seat and shouted loudly.

lean less.

A girl arrives in abundance, floating without dust, as beautiful as a fairy, full of charm.

Dragging a tray in his hand, he placed three bowls of fragrant tea in front of him.

"lady……"

Lu Su hurriedly got up, bowed and saluted with great respect.

"My lady, how do you personally..."

There was a trace of surprise on Zhou Yu's face, and he murmured.

The woman smiled brightly: "I heard that Zhuge Wolong is coming, how can the little girl miss it?"

As he spoke, he floated in front of Kong Ming and bowed down to salute.

Kong Ming hastily returned the gift: "Could it be that Madam is the chief governor's loving little Qiao?"

Xiao Qiao nodded, her eyes flowing, showing more temperament.

"It is said that Jiangdong is the most beautiful woman, and the wife of the governor is even more beautiful by nature. It is true!"

Kong Ming said with sincere appreciation.

"Little Qiao, step back, I'll discuss important matters of the family and country!"

Zhou Yu looked at Xiao Qiao with dignity.

"Yes!"

"I know I'm wrong, so I will step back."

Xiao Qiao smiled very cooperatively, turned around and left.

Lu Su secretly laughed in his heart: "Gong Jin's vanity has never changed..."

Kong Ming was extremely flattering: "Gong Jin is in the government and the opposition, and he is in command of hundreds of thousands of soldiers in Jiangdong. He can call the wind and rain! But I didn't expect such a beautiful wife at home to obey you! You are really a winner in life!"

Zhou Yu stood upright, with a smug look on his face: "A big man establishes the world, and a small family is not peaceful, so An Neng can calm the world!"

"I heard that the beautiful wife of Kong Ming's family is also extremely beautiful?"

Kong Ming blushed: "Ashamed! Ashamed..."

Fearing that there would be trouble again between the two of them, Lu Su hurriedly got up and said, "Gong Jin, you have worked so hard coming from Poyang Lake, you should rest early, I will send Kong Ming back first, and then I will talk to you."

It seems that Kong Ming and Zhou Yu are like one mountain that cannot accommodate two tigers!
Especially Zhou Yu, who hoped to beat Kong Ming in every way, was very competitive.

Now that the general situation has been determined and the goal of persuading Zhou Yu to resist Cao has been achieved, it is better to separate the two as soon as possible, so as not to fight again and affect unity.

"In that case, I won't bother the governor, let's talk about it in the future."

Kong Ming married Huang Yueying, the daughter of the Huang family of the Jingxiang family. Although she is talented, she is a famous ugly girl known all over the world.

How to compare with little Qiao?

So it was very embarrassing to feel the pain in Zhou Yu's heart, so he got up and left with Lu Su's words of relief.

……

"Governor Governor, Kong Ming's words were inappropriate, and he insulted Mrs. Sun Ce and his lovely wife in the back hall. I also hope that Gongjin will put the overall situation first and promote the alliance of Sun and Liu to fight against Cao together. Don't be angry."

After Lu Su settled Kong Ming, he returned to the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion again, bowed and apologized.

"Haha! Zijing!"

"Am I the kind of person with a small belly?"

"Even if Kong Ming doesn't come, my heart against Cao is as firm as a rock!"

"Just now I pretended to surrender Cao, just to let Kong Ming know that I, Jiangdong, am not a mediocre person, and I will not be easily used by him to become his chess piece to weaken Cao Cao with Liu Daeru!"

Zhou Yu was hale and hearty, not tired at all.

Lu Su finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Since this is the case, I can rest assured that the governor should rest early and meet the lord tomorrow."

"No no! How can we delay the important affairs of the country, I will go to persuade the lord!"

While Zhou Yu was speaking, he ordered the left and right maids to prepare clothes.

"The governor is really serving the country and the people!"

Lu Su said with emotion.

……

The night is deep.

Inside the Wu Palace.

But brightly lit.

Although the servants and servants left separately.

But Sun Quan, Emperor Wu, could not sleep peacefully.

The foundation of the father and brother has now been greatly tested.

Cao Cao's army of one million is eyeing him like a tiger, and he may attack Jiangdong at any time.

And Jiangdong's courtiers, the Jiangdong gentry headed by Zhang Zhao, have long since lost the slightest fighting spirit, pestering him every day to talk about the benefits of surrendering!

Whether it's war or peace, he hesitates.

If they surrender, the land of Jiangdong will naturally be preserved, and the children of Jiangdong will not suffer from the chaos of war.

but……

Sun Quan knew very well that the great ideal in his heart, the desire to become emperor facing the south, would also be completely aborted!

But if you don't surrender, will you really start a war?

How many chances do I have for the Jiangdong Navy?

He needs to weigh the pros and cons and analyze the pros and cons!

If the chance of winning is slim, I have no choice but to obey Zhang Zhao and others and hand over the land of Jiangdong to Cao Cao!
"Report!"

"Governor Zhou Yu has arrived!"

The eunuch entered and reported in a low voice.

"Pass! Pass!"

There was a hint of surprise on the emperor's face, as if there was a guiding light in the darkness!
I knew Gongjin would come!

It's hard for me to sleep well, how can he be safe and sound if he relies on his lonely and important minister?

"Minister Zhou Gongjin, pay homage to the lord!"

"Get up! Brother! Get up!"

Sun Quan was overjoyed and excited, and stepped forward to help Zhou Yu up.

"My lord, the monarch and his ministers have their own rules. How can you call me like that..."

Zhou Yu didn't expect the lord to call him "brother" when he was pleasantly surprised!
Sun Quan couldn't help himself, and felt that his words were wrong at this time, so he smiled awkwardly: "Don't worry about Gongjin, since Gongjin used to be sworn brothers with my brother Sun Ce, then he is my brother, so why not?"

Then the conversation turned.

"If you can come back, my heart will be much more stable."

Zhou Yu deeply felt the weight of the responsibility, and was also very grateful for the emperor's trust.

"The thief Cao looked at Jingxiang fiercely, and he had the intention of encroaching on it for a long time. I don't know what the lord's intention is?"

Zhou Yu took the tea bowl handed over by the waiter, put it gently on the table, and waited for the waiter to retreat before asking slowly.

"It's war or peace, it's a dilemma in my heart."

"If you want to fight with strength, you are afraid that if your strength is not enough, all the jade and rocks in Jiangdong will be destroyed. If you want to surrender, you are afraid that Cao's bandits will not tolerate it and ruin your father and brother's foundation."

"Zhang Zhao and others tried to persuade me to surrender day and night, but I insisted not to do so. I will wait for you to come back and play with me for an idea."

Sun Quan frowned and said with a sigh.

"My lord, you must learn from the past!"

Zhou Yu said in a low voice.

"A lesson from the past? What does Gongjin mean?"

Sun Quan was puzzled, looked at Zhou Yu and asked.

"In the past, Liu Biao, Jing Xiang, was so mighty. He once fought against me in Jiangdong, and he did not lose the wind."

"But it is said that Liu Cong, the youngest son, was cowardly and determined to surrender to Cao Cao. He handed over the nine counties of Jingxiang to Cao Cao."

"Cao Cao won Jingzhou, and then killed Liu Cong's mother and son!"

Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan and continued, "My lord's father and brother are all heroes of the world. They started from scratch, and their talents are great. They are much better than Liu Biao!"

"Passing the position to the lord, the soldiers are fine and the food is sufficient, and the soldiers use their lives. Don't you want to do something great, but want to learn from Liu Cong and do the stupid thing of selling your ancestors for glory and being harmed instead?"

Sun Quan suddenly realized it, as if he had been enlightened, and he took a slap in the face!
"Gongjin, thank you!"

"As a minister of Tuogu, Zhang Zhao passively surrendered, which greatly disappointed me."

"Gongjin analyzed the pros and cons, and made Gu Fan wake up!"

Sun Quan excitedly held Zhou Yu's hands, both arms trembling.

Even the voice became a little weird because of emotional instability.

"Everyone in Jiangdong, everyone can surrender to Cao, but the Lord alone cannot surrender to Cao."

"Below Zhou Yu, as long as I descend to Cao, at least I can be promoted to a noble, keep my family property, enter the temple, and it may not be impossible to live forever."

"But if the lord surrenders to Cao Cao, if you are lucky, you can be an An Le Gong and live a lifetime!"

"If you're unlucky, and your family dies overnight, even your beautiful wife and concubines will become the playthings of that lustful man like Cao Bandit!"

Between Zhou Yu's words, he thought of Kong Ming reciting "Tongque Terrace Ode" and what he said about plotting against Er Qiao, and his heart was annoyed and his eyes were sharp.

"Don't worry, Gongjin, I have made up my mind, and I swear to live and die with Jiangdong!"

Sun Quan gripped Zhou Yu's hand even tighter: "This is all thanks to Gongjin's help!"

……

The next morning.

A glimpse of the rising sun skipped over Wu Gong.

Sun Quan was promoted.

Standing on the left are Zhang Zhao, Zhang Fu, Gu Yong, Zhu Ran, Zhuge Jin and other civil officials.

On the right, there are only Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and a few generals, as well as Lu Su.

It's because all the generals are training navy day and night in Poyang Lake, only Huang Gai and Cheng Pu, although Zhou Yu returns to Chaisang to discuss matters.

Although there are only two generals, each of them is armed with a sword, and they are more aggressive than a dozen or so civil servants.

Not for a while.

Zhou Yu was dressed in white, with a great sword hanging from his waist. He entered with his back up and stood at the head of the squad on the right.

"Soldiers are approaching the city, and disaster is not far away. Indecision is the taboo of the country."

"Gongjin has returned today. For Cao Cao, it is war or peace. We must come up with a decision today."

Sun Quan walked down the hall slowly, came to the road between Wenwu on the left and right, paced back and forth, and said in a deep voice.

"My lord, Prime Minister Cao's call to action was sent again this morning, and I was ordered to reply as soon as possible. Whether it is war or peace, I hope the lord will make a clear decision."

Zhang Zhao stepped forward, took out the call to action from Jingzhou from his bosom, and handed it to Sun Quan.

After Sun Quan took it and looked at it, his face became even more gloomy!
Silently handed the call to action to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu glanced briefly, and said with a sneer, "Cao Thief is extremely rampant, he despises me and no one in Jiangdong!"

While speaking, he threw the proclamation on the ground, turned around and looked at Sun Quan: "Has the lord discussed this matter before?"

Sun Quan walked up to the hall slowly, sat at the head, and then said: "Zhang Zhao and others have advised me to surrender to Cao Cao and save Jiangdong."

Zhou Yu frowned, cast a cold glance at the numerous civil servants, and retreated to the class to stand silently.

Zhang Zhao and the others were swept over by his cold light, and each of them shivered involuntarily.

But thinking that above the court, there is a lord to preside over justice. Even though Zhou Yu controls Jiangdong's army, he dare not make mistakes!

What's more, you are Minister Tuogu, and I am also Minister Tuogu, and my qualifications are older than yours!
So he took it easy.

"My lord, Prime Minister Cao has recently issued a letter of appeal. Although the words are a little too aggressive, it is also for the sake of the people of Jiangdong. Please make a quick decision and write back early to appease the millions of teachers in Jingxiang Cao."

Zhang Zhao collected himself and said as he left the class.

"What Mr. Zhang Ge said is true. My lord, please put the safety of the people in Jiangdong as the most important thing. Don't listen to slanderous rumors, and ask for your own destruction."

Gu Yong accumulated courage and spoke extremely harshly.

"I heard that my younger brother Zhuge Liang has arrived in Jiangdong. Although I have a close relationship with him, loyalty and filial piety cannot be both. My lord, please don't be deceived by my younger brother and get confused. Only submitting to the imperial court is the general trend of great unification. What the people want!"

Zhuge Jin didn't want to speak at first, but being coerced by Zhang Zhao and others, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and make a righteous speech.

"My lord, there is no need to hesitate. Prime Minister Cao has stated clearly in his book that as long as the lord surrenders, he will be ordered to live in Jiangdong forever, hereditary, and his glory will be passed down from generation to generation. Why not do it?"

Zhu Ran checked his accounts last night. In just a few days, he was trading ship materials from Jiangdong to Jingxiang, and he had already earned hundreds of thousands of gold!

He naturally knew that these materials were purchased by Cao Cao to rebuild the Jingzhou Navy.

Otherwise, there would not be such a huge profit price!
But the businessman is heavy on profits, and under the huge profits, there is no risk at all!
But Zhu Ran also knew that as long as Jiangdong surrendered, he would belong to the Cao family.

Then he did these smuggling things and cheated inside and out, not only innocent, but also meritorious!
Therefore, it is also a matter of rushing to accept surrender.

"This……"

Sun Quan frowned, and looked helplessly at Zhou Yu who was standing on the right.

"Are you planning to put the lord on the prison cart and take him to Xuchang personally to ask for a reward?"

Zhou Yu suddenly shouted sharply!

"A group of cowardly people who are struggling!"

"On weekdays, being domineering and domineering is unmatched by anyone. When things happen, you are harsh and introverted, and it is useless!"

Zhou Yu commanded the three armies, and how many tiger and wolf generals obeyed obediently!
To deal with these literati, a few words have already made Zhang Zhao and others pale, and their heartbeats accelerated and their blood pressure rose.

"Zibu, since you surrendered, please tell me the reason!"

Zhou Yu pulled and pushed, and the cold light on the waist suddenly appeared, and suddenly disappeared.

But above the lobby, it was already filled with cold air, which made people tremble.

Zhang Zhao's lips moved a few times, but he was still unable to speak, and his heart was beating wildly!
This Zhou Yu actually came hard!
If my words are wrong, or if I don't follow his meaning, will I be slashed with a sword?

He is in charge of the three armies, with hundreds of thousands of horses in his hands, even if he kills my whole family, I am afraid the lord will not pursue it!

What's more, at this time of crisis, if I die, he will become the only confidant of the lord, covering the sky with one hand and running amok!

A good man does not suffer from immediate losses!
Zhang Zhao made up his mind, looked at Gu Yong, Zhu Ran and the others below, meaning that if I don't speak, you don't need to speak, just ask a question, no wonder the gods!
But his subordinate Lu Ji misunderstood the intention.

Although Lu Ji is not young, he has a small official position and has been hugging Zhang Zhao's thigh, but he has never been reused.

At this time, seeing Zhang Zhao squinting at him, he thought it was to encourage him to come forward.

"Zhou Lang, you are so arrogant!"

Lu Ji was confident and said loudly when he left the class.

All officials are terrified!

Zhang Zhao even groaned secretly: "This kid!!"

Even Sun Quan was taken aback.

Did Lu Ji take the wrong medicine today?When he was going out, he was kicked in the head by a donkey in a donkey cart!
"Oh?"

Zhou Yu turned around and glanced at Lu Ji without any panic: "You also agree with the lord's surrender?"

"Please tell me the reason, if it doesn't work, please try my sword!"

Zhou Yu said coldly.

Lu Ji's bewildered little eyes ignored the generals and counselors, like a king who ruled the world.

At this moment, he himself had a kind of heroism overlooking the crowd.

Little did they know that in the eyes of everyone, they regarded him as a clown looking for death!

"Prime Minister Cao upholds the name of the Son of Heaven and conquers the Quartet, which is justified. Although my lord separates Jiangdong, he is still a Han subject. If he resists, it will be treason!"

"Prime Minister Cao has millions of soldiers and a thousand generals! To fight against me in Jiangdong is like the autumn wind sweeping away leaves, without any effort! The reason why he didn't fight is all because of Prime Minister Cao's benevolence!"

Lu Ji talked eloquently, and he had to go on.

"Do you know that you are still Jiangdong's courtier?"

"Have you dreamed of being Cao's traitor?"

Between the words, the cold light suddenly appeared!

As soon as the go-getters come out, there will be a blood rainbow!
Before Lu Ji could refute, the head had already rolled into the dust!
Zhou Yu returned the sword into the sheath, calmly!
His gaze started from Zhang Zhao, and swept across the ministers one by one.

Many civil servants have seen this kind of blood and blood, and their faces turned pale with fright.

Zhu Ran even exclaimed and passed out.

The left and right hurriedly sent him to the mansion and asked the doctor for treatment.

In the lobby, there was silence.

"My lord, I killed Lu Ji not out of personal anger, but because what he said was untrue and disturbed the hearts of the people!"

Zhou Yu said slowly.

"Cao Cao coerced the emperor to make the princes, and he was named Han Chancellor. He was actually a Han thief, and everyone in the world knew it. Lu Ji actually recognized the thief as his father and preached Cao Cao's merits and benevolence. Shouldn't he be killed?"

"Furthermore, Cao Cao's coming here has several major disadvantages, and it is not invincible!"

When Sun Quan heard the words, his eyes lit up, and he had already cast Lu Ji's death out of the blue!

"Gongjin, tell me, what's wrong with Cao thief?"

Zhou Yu pondered slightly: "Cao Cao has come here, and there is nothing behind him. Ma Teng and Han Sui are waiting for Xiliang soldiers, mantises, cicadas and orioles are behind. They are always waiting and turning back. It is an instant thing to invade Chang'an!"

Sun Quan nodded repeatedly, signaling to continue.

"Although Jingxiang surrendered, the hearts of the people were not attached. The gentry were afraid and had to surrender to the Cao bandits. As long as Jingxiang was in turmoil, the Cao army's offensive was frustrated, and Xiaoqiang would be troubled, sooner or later."

"The third one! Cao's army was exhausted, exhausted, exhausted, and our army waited for work with leisure, and everything was in danger!"

"The last one, our army is good at water warfare. The soldiers in the north don't know how to sail. The Jingxiang water army has already been set on fire by my design. Although Cao Cao shouted fiercely, he didn't dare to attack easily."

Sun Quan was so excited that he splashed ink and wrote down the great benefits that Zhou Yu said on his desk with trembling hands.

"Cao Thief doesn't come, it's his advantage!"

"If Bandit Cao dares to attack Jiangdong, not only will he lose an inch of land, but even the nine prefectures of Jingxiang will be returned to Jiangdong!"

Zhou Yu's morale was high, and he said loudly.

"Gongjin's words greatly comfort my heart!"

Sun Quan hurried down to the hall, and held Zhou Yu's hand again.

"It's just that my lord is the lord of Jiangdong. If my lord is in a dilemma and hesitates, how can I expect all the generals to work together to resist foreign enemies?"

Zhou Yu held Sun Quan's hand tightly with both hands, tears welling up in his eyes!
To meet the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, obey his words, and let him show his ambitions to the fullest!

This is the dream of many warriors!
"Don't worry, Gongjin!"

Sun Quan drew his sword and swiped it out on the book case! !
Dang!

Cut off a corner of the desk!
All officials were shocked!

"From now on, whoever dares to say surrender is like this case!"

……

Xiangyang.

office of staff.

Jia Xu is dealing with Jingzhou's money, grain and taxes.

There is a prime minister's bodyguard who enters the staff office.

"Military division, the prime minister calls you to go."

Jia Xu didn't delay, and immediately set off for the prefect's mansion.

Regarding last night, that Magi, he has already guessed something!

That person must be him!

Jia Xu's originally docile gaze suddenly turned bright!

Jia Wenhe, who is in a world of chaotic martial arts, is he a mediocre and incompetent person?
