Major General's Journey through the Three Kingdoms

"The lord is indeed courageous and insightful, but the lord and Yun Chang come here, so there will be no worries for the time being, but after seeing Sun Quan tomorrow, the lord should return to Xiakou as soon as possible to avoid any changes."

Liu Bei said: "Sir, why don't you go back with Bei?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Although Liang lives in the tiger's lair, with Zijing here, I am as safe as Mount Tai. My lord, when I go back, I should prepare the boats and horses for waiting." Liu Bei nodded to express his understanding.

After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he was about to leave.Suddenly thought of something again, so secretly said a few words in Liu Bei's ear.Then left.After Liu Bei sent Zhuge Liang away, he ordered Zuo Long to go down and prepare the boat for returning.

The next day, Liu Bei went to see Sun Quan and sat down as guest of honor.After tea.Liu Bei said: "I heard that you should be like Sun Zhongmou when you give birth to a son. When I see you today, your reputation is indeed well-deserved."

Sun Quan also replied: "If you say that you have an extraordinary bearing, how can Zhongmou compare with Uncle Liu Huang."

Saying that, both of them smiled.Liu Bei then asked: "I heard that Cao Cao has stationed troops in Jiangling, and ordered Jingzhou to surrender Cai Mao and Zhang Yun to build ships and prepare to go to Sanjiangkou. I wonder what the Marquis of Wu's plan is to retreat?"

Sun Quan said: "Most of Cao's troops are not familiar with water, so there is nothing to worry about. Presumably Gong Jin, Kong Ming and others have made decisions long ago."

"However, the Jingzhou navy led by Cai Mao and Zhang Yun must guard against it."

"Cai Mao, Zhang Yunzhi's navy, if he hasn't trained for a long time, I'm afraid he has already lost his vigor. How can he compete with Jiangdong's navy?"

After Liu Bei heard this, he said happily, "Now that our two alliances should work together, if there is anything Liu Bei can use in Marquis Wu, please feel free to speak up."

Sun Quan saw that Liu Bei came all the way to see him, just to say these irrelevant things, so he said: "Although Sun and Liu are in an alliance, there are some things that we should discuss clearly."

Liu Bei laughed and said, "I don't know what Marquis Wu said refers to..."

Sun Quan said: "Once Cao Cao is broken, who will the land of Jingzhou belong to?"

When Liu Bei heard this, Sun Quan really mentioned it, as expected by the military adviser.Liu Bei then said, "I don't know what Marquis Wu wants to do?"

"The land of Jingxiang belongs to Jiangdong, of course, other places are up to the envoy to choose."

When Liu Bei heard this, of course he didn't want to, so he declined and said, "Can we discuss this matter after the Cao Cao is broken?"

"Of course, the sooner this matter is decided, the better, so as not to waste time."

Liu Bei didn't expect Sun Quan to be aggressive, so he replied: "Since Marquis Wu has this intention, Liu Bei has no reason not to agree."

After hearing this, Sun Quan said, "Since Uncle Liu Huang has no objection, how about this matter being settled like this?" Liu Bei just nodded in agreement.Seeing this, Sun Quan had a few drinks with Liu Bei, and then sent Liu Bei away.

Let's say that Sun Quan ordered that Liu Bei should not be killed.Zhou Yu was very puzzled that such a good opportunity was missed.At this time, it was said that Cao Cao sent an envoy to deliver a letter.Zhou Yu received him and opened the letter to read.The letter said: "Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's children, I obey the emperor's order and lead the army to the south. Liu Cong, the lord of Jingzhou, will not go out of the city to meet the surrender. Now only the rebellious Liu Bei has not been captured, but I heard that you want to unite with Liu Bei and fight against it." This is really an unwise move for the army of the Celestial Dynasty. Now that the army has stationed in the fortress of Jiangling, in order not to make Jiangdong's life miserable, it is advisable to tie Liu Bei to welcome the surrender to the court. At that time, he will not lose the title of prince and general. Why should we violate it now? Heaven favors the holy family, did you do something rebellious? I hope you will have insight into the current affairs and understand the situation clearly. Don't go your own way and do things that are against the laws of heaven and ethics. When the time comes, you will definitely play the Holy Spirit and tell you what you and others will say. Merit. Keep calm and wait for good news."

After Zhou Yu read it, he was furious and ordered to beheaded.Left and right dragged the envoy out.But after thinking about it, Zhou Yu finally came up with a plan to kill Liu Bei.So it was released to make a group of people.Afterwards, Zhou Yu secretly summoned Ling Tong, and said: "You pretend to be Liu Bei's man, and then you will beheaded in Jiangxia territory, and only his followers will be released." Ling Tong was ordered to leave.Later, he secretly summoned Gan Ning and said to Gan Ning: "You dress up as Cao Cao's men, and when Liu Bei is about to approach Jiangxia, kill Liu Bei and all of them." Gan Ning was ordered to leave.Zhou Yu breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and then waited for their good news.

Let's say that after Liu Bei and Guan Yu boarded the boat, they headed towards Xiakou.After a few miles, several fast boats followed behind Liu Bei's boat, and they were hundreds of navy elites led by Gan Ning.Liu Bei and Guan Yu didn't seem to notice, they just drove forward.When he was about to arrive at Xiakou, Gan Ning suddenly boarded a fast boat.Then he stood in front of Liu Bei's boat.

"Who are you waiting for, why are you blocking my way?"

"I am here to take your life under the order of the prime minister."

Since Liu Bei and Guan Yu had never met Gan Ning, they did not recognize him.At this time, I saw them coming under the banner of the prime minister.Liu Bei and Guan Yu had to believe each other's words.Without further ado, Guan Yu was about to kill him with his saber.However, Zuo Long recognized Gan Ning.So he called Liu Bei softly and said, "He is Gan Ning, the general of Eastern Wu."

When Liu Bei heard this, he couldn't help being startled.It seems that the people of Soochow still refused to let themselves go in the end.And he used this method of murder and blame to put himself to death.

At Gan Ning's order, hundreds of people jumped over Liu Bei's boat, and then beheaded dozens of Liu Bei's followers.Seeing this, Zuo Long took more than 20 of his brothers with him.He rushed towards Gan Ning's boat, and killed his guards in three or two blows.Gan Ning didn't expect that they were also a group of elites, so he raised his sword and started a scuffle with Zuo Long.And Guan Yu was standing in front of Liu Bei at this time, protecting him.However, the enemy swarmed towards Liu Bei, and it was difficult for Guan Yu to take care of him all by himself.Dozens of Gan Ning sailors jumped onto the stern from the bottom of the water.At this time, Guan Yu was not paying attention to each other.

However, at this moment, more than a dozen fast boats also rushed from the direction of Xiakou.Everyone on the boat took bows and arrows.The first general is Zhang Fei.At this time, I saw the enemy crowd trying to attack my elder brother from behind.Seeing this, Zhang Fei immediately ordered them to shoot arrows.Dozens of sailors immediately responded to the arrows and fell into the water.

Liu Bei couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw that it was Zhang Fei who came, so he ordered the boats to sail over.Gan Ning and others never expected that Zhang Fei would lead the navy to greet them, secretly feeling that something was wrong.So he shook the bell on his chest a few times, and saw the remaining two hundred or so people jumping back to their boat one after another, and then sailed away.Zhang Fei was about to chase after him, but Gan Ning's fast boat had already gone away.

Liu Bei couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, and then asked Zhang Fei why he came to meet him. Zhang Fei said, "It was Zilong who asked me to lead the boat to meet him."

"Zilong?" Liu Bei thought, "How does Zilong know that I'm coming back today?"

Zuo Long said: "I sent someone back last night to inform General Zhao that the lord will go back today."

When Liu Bei heard this, he said with a smile, "Zilong's talent is no less than that of Kong Ming." Then they all went back to Xiakou.
