The most poisonous person in the Three Kingdoms, Boss Cao advised me to calm down!

Chapter 339: Zhou Gongjin is exhausted

Whether it was Han Sui himself or the bandit leaders who had followed him for many years.

Everyone knows that this hero will not suffer a loss in front of him.

Those comrades who drowned in the Wei River before.

There are also those colleagues who died at the hands of Cao's army.

The way those people died was too tragic.

If I really fall into Cao Cao's hands, it would be more painful than death.

If you can't stay in Jincheng, there is Qinghai Lake to the west.

They went back to their old ways and continued to be bandits.

Or go south to Longxi and try to cross Didao.

He went through Yinping to seek refuge with Liu Zhang of Yizhou.

After all, going to Shu is better than going to the desert to die, right?
At the same time, Han Sui still had a glimmer of hope in his heart.

Although Cao Cao has now assembled an army of 50,000.

Going deep into the heart of Liangzhou, logistical supplies would inevitably be tight.

The further west you go, the longer the supply lines become.

In Liangzhou, logistics is a big problem.

Perhaps Cao Cao did this to save food and fodder.

Would he allow Han Sui to settle down in Yecheng, just like he did to Ma Teng?

A step further, what if Cao Cao's supply line is broken?

Then it is not impossible for them to fight their way back to Jincheng!

It was with this plan in mind that Han Wenyou resolutely decided to abandon his base camp.

And Cao Cao, who led the army in person, was chasing after them.

After receiving the news that Han Sui abandoned the city and fled.

Soon I realized that something was wrong!
So he immediately ordered Cao Zhang and Cao Ren to lead their troops to rest for half a day until the next morning.

With the local cavalry of Xiliang as guides, they pursued westwards.

No matter what, it must be done before Han Sui escapes from Liang Province.

Capture him and execute him on the spot.

In this case, this old man won’t even have a place as the Protector General of the Western Regions!
However, early the next morning, Han Wenyou suddenly led his troops back.

He took his 7,000 men and ran back to the outside of Xiangwu City to surrender!
And Cao Cao learned the news.

He also rode at full speed and led his army to Xiangwu.

When Cao Cao arrived at the city of Xiangwu, he met this old friend from Liangzhou.

I couldn't help but ask curiously: "What does Wen Sui mean?"

"Didn't you swear to never surrender?"

And under the watchful eyes of all the nobles in Liangzhou.

Han Sui threw away his weapons and looked embarrassed.

He was also kneeling alone at the city gate.

He kowtowed and replied: "Prime Minister! I have figured it out!"

Then he looked up at the top of the city wall, tears streaming down his face:

"The Western Regions are the old lands of the Han Dynasty. The Prime Minister is determined to unify the world."

"I have received great kindness from the Prime Minister. How dare I not serve the country with my broken body?"

"It's just that the 7,000 troops under my command are a bit redundant."

"My Lord, please grant me three thousand elite soldiers!"

"I will clear the Western Regions and reopen the ancient road for my lord!"

Seeing Han Sui taking the initiative to call him lord.

Cao Cao was also confused and said suspiciously:
"Three thousand soldiers are enough?"

He really couldn't guess what the other party was up to.

Seeing that Cao Cao didn't say anything, Han Sui became anxious!

"Three thousand Liangzhou warriors are enough to sweep across the Western Regions and reopen the trade routes!"

Then he pointed to the sky and said loudly:
"I swear here that I will go to the Western Regions."

"I will only lead 3,000 disciples out of Yumen Pass."

"I will not turn back until Loulan is conquered!"

After hearing what Cao Cao said, he was still hesitant and did not answer for a long time.

Sima De who was beside him naturally knew what he was thinking.

He also took the opportunity to remind his father-in-law.

"Father-in-law, look over there."

Wait for Cao Cao to look in the direction he pointed.

All I saw was dust rising in the west.

A group of cavalry suddenly appeared behind Han Sui's troops.

The familiar words "Xiahou" are embroidered on the leading flag!
Seeing this flag, Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh out loud!
The battle of Guanzhong took the world by surprise.

Cao Cao defeated Han Sui and Ma Chao at the Wei River and killed Cheng Yi, Liang Xing and others.

He then went into Longxi and captured Han Sui, and took over Liangzhou.

Following this trend, advancing into Hanzhong has been put on Cao's army's agenda.

As Hanzhong is the gateway to Yizhou, Cao Cao will take it sooner or later!
Even if Zhang Lu planned to hold on to Hanzhong.

The biggest obstacle between Cao's army and them was Yangping Pass.

Just as Cao's army was sharpening its swords in the northwest and preparing to march south to Hanzhong, the Caisang Camp was located on the bank of the south bank.

That handsome and high-spirited Zhou Lang from Jiangdong.

At this time, he was seriously ill and was at the end of his life.

After the Battle of Jiangxia, Zhou Yu and Yu Jin continued to confront each other on both sides of the Yangtze River.

The allied forces of Sun and Liu had suffered a disastrous defeat before this.

But in this land of ever-changing circumstances.

Even a temporary victory or defeat cannot determine anything.

In the battle of Jiangxia, countless Jiangdong Erlang were killed or wounded.

But in the end, not a single city or an inch of land was gained.

In contrast, Liu Bei's family made a fortune in silence.

He quietly took over Guiyang County.

Now he controls Changsha and Guiyang counties.

The roads leading to the east and west of the river were completely blocked.

So, for whom are they, Jiangdong, working so hard?

Therefore, Zhou Yu was always holding back a desire to fight again.

But he was also worried that if he failed again, Cao Cao would march south.

If I had to stay in Chaisang, I would feel very depressed.

However, the shadow of defeat caused rumors to spread in the rear of Jiangdong.

These are representatives of the Jiangdong gentry.

He even took the opportunity to attack Zhou Yu in the court.

The death of veteran general Cheng Pu was attributed to the wrong command of General Zhou.

Force him to cede part of his military power to capable people in the military.

After such a great defeat, Sun Quan was now facing Zhou Yu.

There is no longer the trust that we once had.

Feeling so sad and depressed, Zhou Yu could only drink to drown his sorrows.

Fortunately, I have my lovely wife Xiao Qiao by my side.

But how can the resentment in my heart be easily eliminated?

Under the political pressure from the rear, Zhou Yu was eventually harmed by alcohol and sex.

Finally he fell ill in bed.

Zhou Yu originally thought that he would get better after recuperating in Baqiu for a few days.

Who knew that the condition not only did not improve, but became increasingly worse.

In just half a year, this world-famous Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

It has reached the end of life.

After all, the root of this problem has been planted long ago.

Ever since Sun Ce was assassinated that year, he was appointed to take charge of the country.

This talented man from Jiangdong who became famous at a young age never had a peaceful day in his life.

He worked hard for the Sun family for many years, but failed in Jiangxia last year.

In the end, he was accused of fighting poorly by his colleagues behind him.

In addition, the plague in Jingzhou had spread to Jiangdong.

Zhou Yu traveled back and forth between the two sides of the Yangtze River, and he might have contracted the disease a long time ago.

Before this, we were kept going only by the passion to expand our territory.

Now that passion has burned out.

Zhou Gongjin was almost at the end of his life.

At this time of early spring, the banks of the Yangtze River present a beautiful scene of bright sky and long water.

The breeze blew through the reeds on both sides, making a rustling sound.

Zhou Yu was wearing a thick fur coat and leaning on a Huchuang.

He looked at the river view in front of him with a pale face.

The pain made him even thinner.

The current physical condition of the Grand Commander of Jiangdong.

How can we withstand such river wind?
He was surrounded by many young generals from Jiangdong.

At this time, he stood aside silently, his face full of worry.

The eyes of Xiao Qiao, Zhou Yu's favorite concubine, were also red.

I don't know how many times I wiped away my tears secretly.

And Zhou Yu just sat there quietly.

Silently waiting for this person to arrive.

Then, suddenly, a small boat appeared on the river, going upstream.

Soon it stopped in front of the crowd.

Captain Zhu Zhi jumped off the boat.

Kneeling in front of Zhou Yu, he said anxiously:

"Please, Grand Commander, hold on for a few more days."

"My lord has sent someone to invite Sun Yu, the governor of Danyang!"

"He will come to Bachu soon to take over your duties."
