Chapter 399 The rats in Jiangdong are shameless!
The person who delivered the letter was Cheng Pu's personal guard, so naturally he had considerable knowledge.

The general on the top of the city wall had a resolute face and extraordinary temperament.

At this time, the other party's identity is also guessed.

He quickly expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, General!"

Then he thanked him and consciously slowed down his horse's speed.

When he entered the city, Liao Hua had already come down from the city wall and was waiting by the roadside.

"Follow me!" No further questions were asked.

Liao Hua led him directly to the county magistrate's office.

He knew very well that military advisor Zhuge Liang must be in the county governor's office handling government affairs at this time.

Liao Hua really admired his diligence.

In just a moment, the two of them stepped into the lobby of the County Magistrate's Mansion.

All I saw was an elegant civil servant in a white cloak.

He was concentrating on the copywriting with a calm posture.

It is like a mountain, which makes people feel awe.

"Military Advisor!" Liao Hua called softly, then stepped aside to make way.

Signaled the guards to report the situation themselves.

The guard dared not hesitate and hurriedly took out the carefully kept letter from his arms and handed it to Liao Hua.

The move was to avoid direct contact with Zhuge Liang and avoid possible misunderstandings.

The second reason is out of respect and trust for Liao Hua.

Then I heard the guard said urgently:
"Military Advisor Zhuge, my Grand Commander Lu Su has a letter for you!"

"As for the contents of the letter, you will know everything after reading it."

The personal guard who was standing by at the time memorized every detail of the conversation between Lu Su and Cheng Pu.

At this moment, he is the bridge for the two people to communicate their thoughts.

"Oh? Zi Jing has a letter for me?"

After saying this, Zhuge Liang raised his head from his desk.

His eyes, which were full of insight, were shining with wisdom and determination.

Hearing this sudden news, a hint of surprise appeared between his brows.

Then he smiled calmly and gently shook off the cloak on his shoulders.

His demeanor is outstanding and his celebrity style is undoubtedly revealed.

He took the letter from Guan Yu and unfolded it.

But he found that the handwriting was not from Lu Su's hand.

Seeing this, his brows couldn't help but frown slightly.

He glanced at the Jiangdong messenger calmly.

But as the contents of the letter gradually unfolded, Zhuge Liang suddenly realized!

Jiangdong was in imminent danger at the moment, so Lu Su had no time to write the letter in person.

Instead, he directly handed over the letters counted by others to him intact.

And the information hidden behind this is enough to make him realize the urgency and seriousness of the situation!
Zhuge Liang's mood was instantly entangled by the heavy reality.

However, his expression remained calm, and he only called out to the door:
"Come here, please let the messenger rest first."

As soon as these words were spoken, Cheng Pu's personal guard who delivered the letter became extremely anxious!
But when the corner of his eye caught sight of Liao Hua who was standing quietly beside him.

The words that were about to burst out were swallowed back and then directed elsewhere.

The room returned to silence, and Zhuge Liang's eyes finally locked on Liao Hua.

"Yuan Jian, quickly summon Generals Guan and Zhang here. I have something important to discuss with you."

There was an unprecedented urgency in his words.

Even Liao Hua felt something was unusual.

"Wait a moment, military advisor. I will be there immediately!"

Before he finished speaking, Liao Hua had already rushed out of the room like the wind.

All that was left was the sound of footsteps fading away.

Zhuge Liang slowly walked to the hanging geographical map.

His fingertips passed over Rushushui, Xiangou, Chaisang and other places.

His brows furrowed even more tightly, and finally he could only let out a long sigh:

"Sun Zhongmou is truly extremely stupid!"

A moment later, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, led by Liao Hua, entered the lobby of the county magistrate's mansion.

At this time, the three of them entered the door one after another and looked at Zhuge Liang.

And Zhang Fei's voice was as loud as ever.

"Military Advisor, what do you want to talk to me and my second brother about?"

"I was sleeping soundly when Yuan Jian dragged me here." After saying that, he found a seat and sat down, yawning continuously.

Although Guan Yu was not as straightforward as Zhang Fei.

But he also looked at Zhuge Liang with questioning eyes, waiting for the military advisor's reply.

Liao Hua remained silent and quietly found a corner to sit down.

However, Zhuge Liang ignored Zhang Fei's rude behavior.

He raised the letter in his hand and said:

"Generals, a disaster is imminent, Jiangnan is in danger!"

He paused and continued:

"A letter from Lu Su of Jiangdong..."

"The letter said that Sun Quan went north to the Ruxu River to fight Cao Cao."

"But they fell into the trap accidentally, and now all 100,000 soldiers and horses have been wiped out."

"Cao Cao has led an army of 200,000 to the south and is waiting on the Yangtze River."

"I wish..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Fei suddenly interrupted and said excitedly:

"Hahaha! Military Advisor, this is not a disaster, it is actually a God-given opportunity!"

"Sun Quan is in trouble, and I, Old Zhang, am so happy!"

Zhang Fei said this while clapping his hands excitedly!

"Military Advisor! In my opinion, we should take this opportunity to march eastward and threaten Yuzhang in one fell swoop!"

"By the way, we will take back Changsha which was previously seized by that Sun Quan brat!"

Zhang Fei’s interruption changed the atmosphere in Changsha!

Even Liao Hua, who had been silent on the side, suddenly had his eyes brightened!
You know, his lord Liu Bei had left him to garrison Changsha.

However, Sun Quan was not a man of integrity when his lord was conquering Jiaozhou.

They took advantage of the opportunity to launch a surprise attack on their rear and thus captured Changsha.

By the way, they also captured the defending general!

Fortunately, his lord Liu Bei did not abandon him and was willing to cede Changsha as a price.

Redeem this trusted and beloved general of his.

But Liao Hua felt very ashamed and wanted only to take Changsha back for his lord!

Just when he was about to speak up to agree with Zhang Fei.

Zhuge Liang turned his gaze to Guan Yu and asked in a deep voice:
"Yun Chang, do you think so too?"

When Guan Yu heard this, he narrowed his eyes and gently stroked his long beard.

A hint of profoundness flashed in his eyes as he said, "Military Advisor, I know what you mean."

"But have you ever thought about how you maintain the relationship between the two families?"

"Has the other party ever treated us sincerely?"

"Sun Quan is a traitor, and the Jiangdong rats are shameless!"

"From what I see, we are just sitting back and watching the fight between the Cao and Sun families."

"Lest Sun Quan have ulterior motives and stab our army in the back again!"

As he spoke, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Guan Yu's eyes.

Hearing Guan Yu's words, Zhuge Liang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and sighed.

Guan Yu’s thinking is not unreasonable.

He has always acted in an upright manner, so naturally he looked down on what Sun Quan did.

Now that Jiangdong is in trouble, he would not think of adding insult to injury.

But it was impossible for him to agree to send troops to rescue.

But for the sake of the overall situation, Jiangdong really has to be rescued now!
Thinking of this, Zhuge Liang also said earnestly:
"Yide Yunchang, the two of you are too superficial to be so calculative!"

"Cao Cao's army is approaching, and the lips and teeth are in danger."

"If Sun Quan is destroyed, how can we remain unscathed?"

"At this moment, our army can sit back and watch Cao and Sun fight each other."

"But let me ask you, if Cao Cao annexed Jiangdong, how should we respond?"

"At that time, the Sun-Liu alliance existed in name only."

"If Sun Quan surrenders to Cao Cao, our army will no longer have the strength to march north!"

"Even if one day, the lord can take Jiaozhou and annex Xichuan."

"How can I resist Cao Cao who controls the north of the Central Plains with my own strength?!"

"If so, when will the lord be able to revive the Han Dynasty and return to the old capital?!"
