Soldiers come to the world

In the early morning of the next day, Zhou Yu and Lu Su appeared outside Jiang Xiajun's central army tent. As soon as they approached the tent, Liu Jing greeted them with a smile on his face, "The distinguished guest is coming, why is Governor Zhou free today?"

For some reason, Zhou Yu looked at Liu Jing with a smile full of sarcasm. Didn't he know what happened yesterday?Despite feeling uncomfortable, Zhou Yu forced a smile and said, "I'm here to discuss military affairs with Zhou Mu."

"Commander, please!"

Liu Jing waved his hand, "Let's talk about it in detail."

He smiled and nodded at Lu Su again, "Deputy Governor Lu please come in too!"

"Zhou Mu is too polite."

The three of them entered the big tent, and the guests and hosts were seated separately. Liu Jing ordered his soldiers to serve hot tea, and then said to the two of them: "It's already the beginning of winter, and the decisive battle is getting closer, Jiangdong Army should be ready! "

"Preparation is ready, but something happened recently."

"What accident?"

Zhou Yu had a hard time opening his mouth. He glanced at Lu Su, and Lu Su could only smile wryly, "General Huang Gai went to test Cao's army yesterday, but unfortunately he was captured. Zhou Mu should know about it!"

Liu Jing nodded, "I've heard that too, but victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs, so the governor doesn't have to take it to heart."

"But General Huang..."

Zhou Yu finally couldn't help but speak, he sighed, "I am responsible for this matter, I underestimated the enemy, now that General Huang has been captured, it is difficult for me to explain to Marquis Wu."

"I can understand. After all, Huang Gongfu is one of Jiangdong's three elders and has a great influence in Jiangdong. But when we defeat Cao Jun, we can rescue him."

"Probably not until then."

Zhou Yu's face was full of embarrassment, and he couldn't continue. Lu Su said: "Yesterday, Cao Cao sent an envoy to give us three days. We have to change one person, otherwise we will use General Huang to sacrifice the flag!"

"I wonder who old thief Cao wants to replace?" Liu Jing asked quietly.

Zhou Yu and Lu Su looked at each other, Zhou Yu hesitated and said, "Cao Cao proposed to exchange Ma Yan with General Huang."

"what!"

Liu Jing was taken aback, and immediately flew into a rage. Huo Di stood up and said, "No way! It's absolutely impossible!"

Zhou Yu's face was flushed with swelling, and he couldn't say a word. Lu Su hurriedly said, "We also know that this matter is difficult to talk about, so we just ask Zhou Mu to help us with this."

"This is not a question of helping. Ma Yan has surrendered to me. He is now my general. He has given me his wealth and life. If I send him back to Cao Cao, who am I? Who in the world would dare Surrender to me? Governor Zhou, you should know better than anyone else that this is impossible and there is no room for negotiation!"

Liu Jing looked sternly and coldly, and looked out of the tent with his hands behind his back, ignoring the two of them. Zhou Yu gritted his teeth and said, "If the Zhou Mu is willing to agree, the Jiangdong Army is willing to obey the command of the Zhou Mu. In this battle, Jiang Xia's army will fight for you." Master, Jiangdong Army as assistant."

Liu Jing sighed, "I can understand the difficulty of the commander-in-chief, but I can do it very well if I betray my subordinates for a little profit. Please, the governor!"

Zhou Yu bit her lips tightly and said, "What does Zhou Mu want? Just ask."

Liu Jing looked back at him deeply, and finally shook his head, "It's too hurtful to talk about it, the governor will think of other ways, it's hard for me to explain to my subordinates, please!"

Zhou Yu had no choice but to get up and cupped his hands and said, "That's disturbing the state shepherd, so farewell!"

He quickly left the big tent, Lu Su also hurriedly followed out, Liu Jing walked out of the big tent with his hands behind his back, watching the two walk away, his eyes could not help showing a cold smile.

Back in his big tent, Zhou Yu was furious and kicked over the table, "What a Liu Jing, you don't give me face like this!"

Lu Su also followed in, quickly persuading: "The governor calm down, this matter has not yet reached the point of despair, I feel that Liu Jing was decisive at the beginning, but then he relaxed a little, didn't the governor find out?"

Zhou Yu said with a livid face, "Of course I know. He thinks there is only a little benefit and he refuses to make a big deal, but how can I make concessions? I have already agreed to obey his orders, what else will he do?"

Lu Su pondered for a moment and said, "Why didn't the governor ask him what conditions he wants?"

"I don't want to ask him. If I give him a chance, he will open his mouth like a lion. I'm afraid I won't be able to do it if I don't agree."

"Actually, the governor should ask and find out his bottom line. The governor really can't agree, so he can push it to Marquis Wu."

Zhou Yu sighed, "Let's talk again! I'll talk to Cao Cao about the terms."

Zhou Yu immediately ordered the soldiers, "Go and invite Mr. Jiang to me."

After a while, Jiang Gan hurried into the big tent, bowed and saluted: "See the governor!"

Zhou Yu grabbed his hand and said, "Zi Yi, for the sake of our classmates for many years, you must help me this time."

Jiang Gan laughed twice, "Whatever Gongjin said, as long as I can do it, I will try my best to help."

"Go back and talk to Cao Cao again, please Cao Cao must change one condition."

Jiang Gan scratched his head, "Okay! I'll go back and tell the prime minister, try to be realistic, then I'll take my leave."

Lu Su smiled and said, "I'll give you a ride, sir."

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

A small boat was moored by the river, and Lu Su accompanied Jiang Gan to the boat. Jiang Gan stopped in his tracks, cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Thank you, Deputy Commander Lu, please stay! I will be back as soon as possible."

Lu Su glanced at him and said with a faint smile, "Although I can understand that Mr. Jiang is worried about his father, I also hope that Mr. Jiang will consider Jiangdong's interests and not go too far."

Jiang Gan was stunned, "I don't understand what Deputy Governor Lu said."

"Why don't you understand, you know better than anyone else."

Lu Su sneered, waved his hands and said, "Please get on board! I look forward to the good news that Mr. Wang will bring back."

Tell me, Lu Su turned around and left, Jiang Gan looked at Lu Su's back, his head was about to explode, why did another insider come, but...

Jiang Gan suddenly realized that Lu Su didn't tell Zhou Yu what he knew, and it seemed that he was also afraid. Jiang Gan thought about it, and suddenly understood that Lu Su must be worried about the breakdown of the alliance, so he couldn't bear to say anything.

Thinking of this, Jiang Gan felt a little relieved.

． ． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Jiang Gan at this time was not only Zhou Yu's hope, but also Cao Cao's great hope. In the big tent, Cao Cao squinted his eyes and listened to Jiang Gan's report, and asked with a smile: "You mean, for Ma Yan, Liu Jing and Zhou Yu almost fell out?"

"I don't know if Liu Jing turned his back on him, but I heard that several generals of Jiang Xia's army drew their swords to face each other. Zhou Yu left Jiang Xia's camp in a state of embarrassment. I could see that he was furious and scolded Liu Jing for his lack of sincerity."

Cao Cao smiled complacently. Of course he knew what handing over Ma Yan meant to Liu Jing. Yan handed it over to Zhou Yu in exchange for Huang Gai.

Cao Cao thought for a while and asked, "Then what is Zhou Yu's attitude towards Huang Gai being arrested? Didn't he hate Liu Jing for betraying him behind his back?"

"This... Lu Su firmly insisted that the prime minister was planting the ground and sowing an alliance between the two armies. He firmly believed that Liu Jing would not do such a thing. Tai Shici, Zhou Tai and others also thought it was impossible."

"What about Zhou Yu?"

Cao Cao asked with a smile, "Does he also think it's impossible?"

Jiang Gan was a little flustered. This was what Liu Jing taught him in the letter. He was very worried that the prime minister would find out if there were loopholes, but at this moment he had to say it, so he had to bite the bullet and said, "Zhou Yu didn't say anything, His face is gloomy, I can't see what's going on in his heart."

Cao Cao laughed. With Zhou Yu's intelligence, he must know that he is not lying. It is very good and has fully achieved his expected effect. Cao Cao just hopes that Jiangdong Army and Jiang Xia Army will turn against each other because of Ma Yan and Huang Gai. Then His plan of alienation succeeded.

Since the effect is so good, how could he give in again, Cao Cao immediately said coldly: "Go back and tell Zhou Yu, I can give in, I don't need to live Ma Yan, just give me Ma Yan's head, I will release Huang Gai Otherwise, tomorrow at [-]:[-] noon, I will use Huang Gai to sacrifice to the flag!"

． ． ． ． ． ． ．

Jiang Gan had no choice but to go back to the Jiangdong army camp by boat again, and the soldiers took him to the big tent. At this time, Zhou Yu was calling the generals to discuss military affairs in the tent. Ask him to wait in the side tent!"

Zhou Yu was not in the mood to continue the meeting, he immediately went to the side tent, and asked after entering the tent, "Zi Yi, what news?"

"I'm afraid I have no good news to tell the governor. The prime minister still wants to exchange Ma Yan for Huang Gai, but Ma Yan's head can also be used. It must be before [-]:[-] p.m. tomorrow. If it is too late, it will be too late."

Zhou Yu couldn't say a word, so what's the difference between using Ma Yan's head and himself?After a while, he ordered the left and right to say: "Go and invite the Deputy Governor of Lu!"

Not long after, Lu Su hurried over, "Captain, what news?" Lu Su asked anxiously.

Zhou Yu shook his head, "Cao Cao won't give in!"

Lu Su looked at Jiang Gan vigilantly again, Jiang Gan smiled wryly and said, "Report to Vice Governor Lu, I have indeed tried my best, don't blame me anymore."

"Zijing, other people speak lightly. This matter has nothing to do with him. Don't criticize him."

Lu Su lowered his head, he knew that there must be something wrong with this matter, but what is the problem?He also couldn't see it through, 'Could it really have nothing to do with Liu Jing this time? ' Lu Su thought secretly.

Zhou Yu asked Jiang Gan to step down, and then asked Lu Su, "Zijing, what do you think should be done about this matter?"

"I'm still saying the same thing. The governor may wish to ask Liu Jing about his conditions. I feel that his tone has become a little loose after that. Let the governor try it!"

Zhou Yu had no choice but to heave a long sigh. He really didn't want to beg Liu Jing. For a Huang Gai, he really paid a heavy price this time.

. . . . . .

Liu Jing is like an old fisherman, very patient and methodical. He knows that Zhou Yu will come to beg him sooner or later. laughed.

"Please come in Governor Zhou!"

Zhou Yu walked into the big tent quickly, with an embarrassed expression on his face. Although he was arrogant by nature, he had to lower his noble head in order to save him, "Zhou Yu is here to disturb Zhou Mu again."

Liu Jing quickly laughed and said, "What is the governor talking about? Our two families form an alliance, so we should communicate more. Please sit down!"

He smiled at Lu Su again: "Duke Lu, please sit down too!"

The three of them sat down again, Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Although it is difficult to speak, I still ask Zhou Mu. General Huang is very important to Jiang Dong. I can't explain to Marquis Wu if he has his own strengths and weaknesses. I implore Zhou Mu for help. As for the conditions, please feel free to put forward the state pastor."
