Uncle Emperor, I am really not Wolong Zhuge!

Chapter 153
"My lord, you can keep Kong Ming in the army and pay a visit to the temporary military advisor. It won't be too late to release him back to Jingzhou when the enemy is retreated."

"The lord has given me a reward, but I dare not take it upon myself. I have sent out all the troops to show my lord's kindness. I have been entrusted by my late brother to do so, and I have been working hard to serve the lord without hesitation!"

"Zhou Gongjin bows his head and pays homage again!"

Sun Quan personally stood on the high steps, reading Zhou Yu's letter, his words were impassioned and soul-stirring!

Everyone below could hear it clearly.Lu Su was so excited that tears filled his eyes, and he was secretly glad that if Zhou Yu's letter had not arrived in time, and if Zhou Yu had not supported the use of troops, all the consequences would have been unimaginable!

He also guessed that the reason why Zhou Yu put aside his prejudices and agreed with Kong Ming's strategy was probably because he learned from the envoy that Kong Ming had excused him in front of Sun Quan, which eliminated Sun Quan's suspicion of him.

And the reason why Sun Quan wants to keep Zhuge Liang as his military advisor is because he has many intentions...

Eliminate Zhuge Wende's right-hand man and weaken Jingzhou's strength?

Want to keep Kong Ming for your own use?They all planned to use Kong Ming as a hostage after the war to force Jingzhou to agree to something?

While Lu Su was thinking about it, Sun Quan happily put the letter on the table, raised his head and said: "I have made up my mind to attack Hefei! I have the power of six counties and cannot just sit back and wait for death. The thief Cao wants to destroy me. Immortal, since I have been given a good opportunity by Zhuge Military Advisor, I must not let it slip!"

Zhang Zhao said: "On the next day, I will raise food and grass to supply military supplies, and work together to win this battle!"

Taishi Ci also said: "Chaisang's troops are distributed far and near. I have made preparations in the past few days. It only takes two days to gather and go out!"

Sun Quan nodded, went downstairs to Lu Su, and said with a smile: "In Gong Jin's book, it is mentioned that Zhuge Liang will be hired as a military advisor. He knows about the battle of Hefei. You and Kong Ming are the most familiar with each other. You can discuss it with him after you go back. Let’s see how he fares. We must keep him in Jiangdong and wait until we win this battle before we can worry about anything else.”

Lu Su shook his head and sighed: "Zhuge Liang has already declared in private that he will not stay in Jiangdong for a long time. Zhuge Military Advisor in Jingzhou has a strict order. After he conveys the message, he will return to Jingzhou to resume his duties."

Sun Quan waved his hand: "Chaisang's troops will be ready soon, and Gan Ning's and Cheng Pu's troops will arrive in the next two days. Food and grass have never been our problem in Jiangdong, let alone this time we are sending troops to Chaisang, Zhang Ge personally Handling it is naturally not a problem.”

"Everything is ready except for the military advisor. Zijing has worked hard and must convince Kong Ming to stay in Jiangdong!"

Sun Quan's words suddenly became tough, as if he was giving Lu Su a death order.

"My lord, this is not the way to treat guests..."

Lu Su said hesitantly.

"Where are Jia Hua and Song Qian!"

"You two lead your troops to Lu Su's mansion and invite Mr. Zhuge to come. I want to invite him personally to serve as my military advisor and conquer Hefei myself!"

Lu Su was shocked, but at this moment, he did not dare to stop him too much.

"Here!"

Generals Jia Hua and Song Qian took the order and led the armored troops to gallop towards Lu Su's mansion.

Gu Yong stepped forward and said: "My lord is the lord of Jiangdong, how can I take risks? It is enough to send a general, but it is inappropriate to conquer Hefei personally."

Sun Quan laughed loudly and said with high spirits: "Cao Cao is over fifty years old. Every time he fights in all directions, he is still not old! He is a man in his prime, but he is also familiar with the art of war and knows a little about martial arts. Don't you dare to plan a battle formation?"

"Gu has made up his mind, no need to say more. Gu and Cao's thieves are incompatible with each other. If I don't conquer Hefei personally, it won't show that I, Jiangdong, am determined to defeat Cao!"

Zhang Hong glanced at Lu Su, then turned to Zhuge Jin, and said with a smile: "If my brother is the frontline military advisor, and you are the central military advisor, wouldn't it be a good story? Everyone inside and outside Jiangdong depends on Zhuge. Two Zhuges are better than one Zhuge. , I, Jiangdong, are still afraid of Zhuge Wende in Jingzhou?"

Zhuge Jin blushed and whispered: "Zhuge Jin is stupid and short-witted, how dare he compare with brother Zhuge. Whether my younger brother Zhuge Liang will leave or stay, we still have to see him..."

While everyone was discussing, they suddenly heard the sound of horses neighing outside the palace.

Sun Quan's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Kong Ming has arrived, I and all the ministers will personally welcome him!"

Sun Quan was in front, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong were behind, and Gu Yong, Zhuge Jin, and Lu Su followed. The group walked out of the hall to greet Zhuge Liang.

I saw Jia Hua and Song Qian returning with five hundred armored troops. Song Qian clapped his horse forward, dismounted, came to Sun Quan, bowed down and said: "My lord, I waited until I arrived at Lu Su's mansion, but I didn't see him there." Zhuge Liang, according to family reports, after Zijing left the mansion at noon, Zhuge Liang followed him out of the mansion. The family thought he was with Zijing, so there was no suspicion. He has not returned yet."

Lu Su was secretly shocked, and Sun Quan stumbled and sighed: "Kong Ming is gone! It's such a pity!"

Song Qian took out a letter from his arms, handed it to Sun Quan and said, "I waited until I arrived at Kong Ming's residence. Only this letter is written to my lord. We don't dare to do it ourselves, so we will bring it back to your lord."

Sun Quan opened the letter, and it turned out to be Zhuge Wolong's own handwriting. The outline of the letter said: "In the name of military advisor Zhuge Wende, Liang informed the princes about Hefei. Now everything is ready, except for a military advisor in front of the formation. If the princes want to If you want to win, you can worship Lu Su as your military advisor, and you will surely achieve a complete victory. This is what Zhuge Wende’s military advisor meant!"

"Liang is already a hundred miles away in a small boat. The princes and princes use their troops well and don't need to chase. On the day of victory, Liang will come to see you again!"

Sun Quan held the book in his hand and sighed with emotion: "Zhuge Wolong is already a genius in the world, rare in the world! Afterwards, Zhuge Wende became even more sophisticated and unpredictable. Every step I take is part of his plan. ! Since Zhuge Wende’s military advisor recommended Zijing as military advisor, how dare I disobey him!”

"From now on, Gu Baizi will be honored as a military advisor. I will personally arm myself and prepare my troops and horses. In three days, the troops will be sent to Hefei!"

The generals were shocked. Even Taishi Ci had never thought that the powerful lord Sun Quan would respect Zhuge Wende so much and follow his orders as if he were following an imperial edict!What's more, I didn't expect that Lu Su, who had no experience in leading troops in combat, would be worshiped as the Eastern Front Military Advisor!

Lu Su seemed to be in a dream at this moment.Since Zhuge Kongming came to Jiangdong, he informed Jiangdong of everything that was about to happen. It seemed that the events in Jiangdong were all scripts that evolved under the arrangements of Zhuge Wende and Zhuge Kongming!
But there was only one thing that confused him.According to Kong Ming, Zhuge Wende of Jingzhou had prepared a counselor for him in Jiangdong who could slay dragons and heavens a few months ago to help him succeed.But now Kong Ming has gone west and returned to Jingzhou, and he has been worshiped as a military advisor as Kong Ming predicted, but the mysterious man never appeared!
Zhuge Wende!

"...If you worship Lu Su as your military advisor, you will surely achieve a complete victory! This is what our military advisor Zhuge Wende means!"

Thinking of Zhuge Liang's words in the book, Lu Su's eyes suddenly glowed with even more confidence!
"Lu Su obeys your order!"

Lu Su straightened his clothes, prostrated himself in front of Sun Quan, and took charge of the military division in front of all the generals!

The official road from Xudu to Wancheng is much wider and flatter than all other official roads.

Just because Prime Minister Cao had the intention of marching south, endless supplies of grain, grass, equipment, and military supplies were continuously sent from Xuchang to the camp in Wancheng every day.

It was spring at this time, and both sides of the official road were green. Apart from the terraced crops, there were endless weeds, but everything was full of vitality and full of the power of life.

On the open and smooth road, two war horses came galloping from Xudu, one black and one white, complementing each other.

The black horse is completely black without a single hair, while the white horse is as white as milk and dazzling.

Sitting on the white horse is a handsome young man, also dressed in white brocade, with handsome eyebrows and bright eyes. He is about 20 years old, wearing fast boots and a sword hanging from his waist. He is looking forward to his appearance and full of energy.The person on the black horse is extremely slovenly. He is wearing gray and dim clothes that are too wide and do not fit him at all. The whole robe is hanging on the horse's back. The beard on his mouth is messy and scattered around the mouth. His hat and shoes are extremely Shabby, looking like a beggar, but his eyes are as sharp as an eagle!
While the two horses were galloping, the young man on the white horse suddenly pulled the reins and stopped the horse.The middle-aged man on the black horse didn't have time to stop. He rushed forward and arrived a few feet in front of the white horse.

"Zhongda! What do you think this is?"

The boy with the white horse shouted loudly from behind.

The middle-aged man on the black horse reined in the reins and remained motionless. He turned his head and looked back. He looked like a wolf!
Sima Yi turned around and saw that Cao Pi had nothing in his hand except silk reins and riding whips. He asked strangely: "Your Majesty, what are you..."

Cao Pi rode forward, came to Sima Yi, and said seriously: "Zhongda, I know that you are dressing up like this, just to keep a low profile and hide your presence. Find a place ahead, take a bath and change clothes, clean up, I will take you Go to the army, pay homage to your father, and face the advisers and generals. Don’t lose your grace.”

Sima Yi said in a low voice: "Wei Chen only wants to assist the prince, but has no ambition. There are wise men in the army, why use me? Please forgive me, the prince."

Cao Pi laughed and said: "Zhongda's ambition is not in Jingzhou, but in the world!"

"But if we don't sweep Jingzhou, how can we sweep the world? You are nearly [-] years old this year. How many years have you spent? If you don't take advantage of this opportunity to make achievements, will you be like a seventy-year-old man, sighing in vain?"

Sima Yi looked slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Cao Pi could see so clearly at such a young age, and could see everything clearly.The entire Xu capital regarded Sima Yi as a rookie, but Cao Pi regarded him as a treasure and kept him in his mansion, meeting him day and night and listening to his teachings and guidance.Unexpectedly, the young are better than the old. Although Cao Pi's wisdom and strategy are not as good as Sima Yi's, his ability to understand people is already better than Sima Yi's!

"Wei Chen obeys orders..."

As Sima Yi spoke, his figure relaxed, and his originally rickety and restrained figure suddenly grew taller and taller. Sitting on horseback, he looked somewhat heroic.

"Also, you must change your habit of turning back, especially in front of my father. You must not show it!"

"Those who look down on eagles and look down on wolves should not use them to their full potential. If they use them, they will be counterproductive. This is what my father once said to me."

"The last person who was killed because of this was Chen Gong, who was my father's great benefactor."

As Cao Pi spoke, he rode forward.Sima Yi stayed behind for a few seconds, secretly remembering Cao Pi's words in his heart, and patted his horse to catch up with Cao Pi. The two horses, like arrows from the string, kicked up a trail of smoke and galloped towards the Wancheng camp.

……

At night, in the large tent of the Chinese army in Wancheng.

"Father, I heard that my father was in Wancheng and wanted to attack Jingzhou, so I brought Zhongda to serve in the army."

Cao Pi bowed to greet his father, then turned around and called Sima Yi to come forward and pay homage to Cao Cao together.

The five great counselors, Cao Ren, Xiahou Dun and many other generals were in the tent. They saw that Sima Yi was tall and tall, with eyes like eagles. Although he did not have a dazzling aura, he had an attractive temperament.It makes people suddenly feel a sense of fear.

Many of these people knew Sima Yi, and they were secretly surprised when they saw that he suddenly changed his past style and became sharper.

Cao Cao stretched out his hand to help Cao Pi up, nodded and smiled, feeling deeply satisfied. Unexpectedly, among all his sons, only his eldest son Cao Pi had such filial piety!
"When Xu Du was in chaos, your third brother came to the army on the pretext of sending food. You stayed in Xu Du to help Xun Lingjun defend the city. Now that Xu Du is in peace, you come to the army again. It shows that you are really thinking about the country!"

Cao Cao gently stroked Cao Pi's back and said with a sigh. In his words, he could not help but feel disappointed with his third son, Cao Zhi.

Cao Pi straightened his body and said seriously: "In the eyes of a child, there is only the prime minister of the Han Dynasty and no father. The prime minister is still busy with state affairs and is away at war. How dare I indulge in singing, dancing, poetry and painting, and let down this man's body!"

Cao Cao nodded with satisfaction, turned around and came to Sima Yi, helped him up with a smile, and asked Wen Yan, "Don't pretend anymore?"

Sima Yi was trembling and knelt on the ground: "Prime Minister, the holy candle is shining, Sima Yi is like a naughty child!"

Cao Cao laughed loudly, nodded and said, "Your father and I are officials of the same dynasty. If you assist Pi'er well, you will be rewarded in the future."

Sima Yi only obeyed the order.

Jia Xu stood by and whispered to Xun You: "I just saw the real Qilin today. You and I are both half blind!"

Xun You sighed and said in a low voice: "We are old, and sooner or later this son will rule the world!"

Cheng Yu stood behind the two of them, observing closely and remaining silent.

Chen Qun and Zhong Yao looked at each other, and Chen Qun asked in a low voice: "Are they talking about the Crown Prince, or Sima?"

Zhong Yao covered his mouth with his hands and whispered: "It seems like the Crown Prince, but also like Sima..."

Chen Qun shook his head: "Talk nonsense again!"

……

Xiangyang City, in the Military Advisor's Mansion.

Zhuge Ming was discussing Jingzhou government affairs with Ma Liang when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps outside the door. The sound had already arrived before the person arrived.

"Brother, my little brother has fulfilled his mission and is here to return to life!"

Zhuge Liang walked in, swaying with a feather fan in his hand.

"Look at him, even with a small amount of skill, he has already started to drift!"

Zhuge Ming pointed at Zhuge Liang and said to Ma Liang with a smile.

"Mr. Wolong only accomplished three to five days, so he persuaded Sun Quan to raise 20 troops to attack Hefei. Cao Cao's [-] elite troops were already dead. If I had such 'small achievements', I would be better. Perhaps compared to Kong Ming, I would be better." Still high!”

Ma Liang put his hands on his hands and laughed, saying cheerfully.

Zhuge Liang walked to the table, sat down on a stone bench, put down the feather fan in his hand, picked up a bowl of hot tea that Ma Liang had poured for him from the table, and said with a smile: "I don't laugh at anything else, I laugh at Shi Yuan Xiaoer." In my mind, after all this time, I still remember my brother for not taking him in Jingzhou and putting him in Jiangdong."

So he explained in detail how to visit Pang Tong and how Pang Tong spoke.

Zhuge Ming said seriously: "This is not a child's temperament, but his nature is hard to change. The reason why I didn't keep him in Jingzhou was for this reason. If he were in Jingzhou, it would be difficult for you to get along with him for a long time. Pang Tong has a perverse temperament and is arrogant about his talents. Over time, , Jingzhou’s internal and external officials, rules and regulations will all be trampled on him. I’m afraid that if I punish him, he will appear unloyal. If I don’t punish him, it will be difficult to convince the public. So I have to put him in Jiangdong.”

Zhuge Liang nodded and praised: "Brother's ability to recognize people is unparalleled in the world. I only thought you were sincerely asking him to go to Jiangdong because there was no vacancy in Jingzhou. It turns out you have seen through him a long time ago!"
