Sanguo: Banzi Shengtian, you call him Yanque?

Chapter 239 Zhou Yu died and sent troops to Jiangdong!
Fazheng, Zhang Song and others wanted to welcome Liu Bei, because they saw that Liu Zhang was not the wise king, but Liu Bei had a good reputation and was the wise king they wanted to take refuge in.

No one on either side could convince the other, and their faces turned red and necks thick as they quarreled.

In the end, Liu Zhang yelled impatiently.

"Okay, don't argue. Is this Xichuan yours or mine? I didn't say a word, but you decided to fight. Do you still care about me as your lord?"

Although several people wanted to fight against Cao Cao, they did not dare to disobey Liu Zhang. After all, Liu Zhang was still the lord of Xichuan.

"My subordinates dare not."

Liu Zhang snorted coldly: "We have to fight each one. I think your wings are stiff? Then how can we fight if Cao Jun is so powerful? What should we do if we lose?"

If he loses, he will lose his life. He naturally understands this truth.

And although Liu Zhang was cowardly, he was not stupid.

Jiangdong was once very powerful, but how is it now? Zhou Yu was so high-spirited before, wasn't he almost angry to death by Cao Cao and Ye Fan?
The Jiangdong navy was famous all over the world, but it was still defeated by Cao Jun. What could he use to fight against Cao Jun?

Therefore, Liu Zhang did not want to confront Cao Cao at all, and even wanted to surrender. In this way, he might be able to retain his title and still be prosperous and wealthy.

Thinking of this, he remembered that there was another letter from Cao Cao, so he quickly opened it. After reading the content of the letter, he felt a lot more relaxed.

"Okay, you guys should take a look too!"

Everyone took the letter and took turns to look at it, and then they realized why Cao Cao suddenly mobilized heavy troops.

"Cao Cao wants us to send troops to deal with Liu Bei, so their mobilization of heavy troops is just for show and to put pressure on us. It seems they are still afraid of us."

Fazheng saw through Cao Cao's intentions at a glance.

"Alas," Zhang Song also sighed, "Cao Cao's move is really cruel. If we don't comply, we will send troops immediately. If we agree to the request, the lord will also bear the reputation of injustice."

"No matter what choice we make, it will be detrimental to us."

Li Yan's face was also very solemn, and he nodded and said: "This move should also be to test the lord's attitude, and want to see if the lord has any objections."

"If the lord does not agree, I am afraid that the one Cao Cao will have to deal with next will be the lord!"

Zhang Ren and others were silent, their expressions a bit solemn.

Because they know their lord Liu Zhang, they even know what Liu Zhang will choose with their eyes closed.

Sure enough, Liu Zhang immediately ordered: "Hurry up and send troops to kill Liu Bei quickly!"

There are only a few thousand soldiers and horses on one side, but there are millions of troops on the other side. It is naturally clear who to deal with.

Fa Zheng's heart tightened and he quickly persuaded: "My lord, do you want to think about it again? After all, Liu Bei is also a member of the Han Dynasty and comes from the same lineage as my lord."

"If we send troops, how should the world view our lord?"

Liu Zhang glared: "Do I care what they say? Is it difficult to choose whether to fight Cao Jun or Liu Bei? Stop talking, I have made up my mind to send troops to attack Liu Bei!"

"Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, and Wu Yi, I leave this matter to you to resolve. You must get rid of Liu Bei!"

Several military generals immediately stood up, cupped their hands and said: "I obey!"

Fazheng and Zhang Song were helpless about this scene and could only shake their heads and sigh.

……

"Report!"

"Lord, I'm so happy!"

In the Prime Minister's Mansion in Xuchang, Cao Cao was summoning Ye Fan, Xun Yu and others to discuss matters when he suddenly received news from Jiangdong.

Cao Cao raised his eyebrows, looking a little surprised.

"What's going on?" The messenger looked excited and said quickly: "Zhou Yu in Jiangdong died of illness. After Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan couldn't suppress the clans in Jiangdong. Now Jiangdong is in chaos!"

Cao Cao immediately slapped his thigh and stood up immediately.

"Hahaha, that's great!"

Zhou Yu is a strong enemy. Although he has always lost to Ye Fan, it is a major obstacle for them to pacify Jiangdong.

Moreover, Zhou Yu was ruthless and majestic and was able to suppress the clans in Jiangdong. But once Zhou Yu died, the clans in Jiangdong had nothing to worry about.

Presumably, it was because of chaos in Jiangdong that the news of Zhou Yu's death came out.

Ye Fan's face showed a sigh of relief. No matter what, Zhou Yu is an admirable person who shines in this era.

Although he was an enemy, his death still made Mark a little sad.

However, Ye Fan did not forget his identity and responsibilities.

"My lord, as I see, the time is now ripe, and the land of Jiangdong can be swallowed up in one gulp!"

Xun Yu and others also nodded in agreement. Jiangdong had been delaying for too long.

Cao Cao was overjoyed and immediately waved his hand: "Yes, it's time to end all this."

"Send orders to Cao Ren to march immediately and pacify Jiangdong!"

“I’ve finally waited for this day!”

In the land of Jiangdong, in Cao Jun's camp, Cao Ren received Cao Cao's order and immediately summoned Zhang He, Xu Huang and others.

"Great. During this time, we have seen Jiangdong in chaos, but we can't send troops. It's really frustrating!" Zhang He also said excitedly.

Xu Huang nodded slowly, but his expression remained solemn.

"I don't know if the news of Zhou Yu's death is a scam. Maybe Jiangdong has set a trap for us."

When Cao Ren heard this, he nodded.

After all, they know Zhou Yu's virtue and always make some small moves. Now that Ye Fan is not around, they might get into trouble.

Zhang He said slowly: "However, the Jiangdong clan has sent many envoys during this period, all of whom want to surrender to us. It doesn't look like they are fake."

Cao Ren narrowed his eyes slightly. After the previous war, he had become mature.

"You are all right. Even if the Prime Minister orders them to march immediately, they should be more cautious."

"In this way, we will divide into four groups. Xu Huang will lead an army and take the lead in advancing. Le Jin and Yu Jin will each lead an army and advance from the left and right. Be sure to ensure that they can support you at any time!"

"Zhang He, lead the navy to advance from the waterway and rush directly to Jianye!"

Several lieutenants immediately took the order and then went down to order troops.

Soon, the 500,000 troops stationed in Jiangdong began to march. Not only Cao's army had been waiting for this day for a long time, but also the clans in Jiangdong had been waiting hard.

Because the army didn't come for a day, they became anxious and uneasy. This feeling was even worse than killing them because they didn't know what the outcome would be.

Now that they heard that Cao Cao's army had finally begun to march, these clans even wanted to cheer for Cao Cao's army.

However, contrary to the clans, the people were in panic. The war had spread to Jiangdong, and these people were the innocent victims.

Even the many rumors of Cao's army slaughtering cities and killing wantonly made them terrified.

However, when Cao's army came, they discovered that Cao's army was not as brutal as the rumors said.
