Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 295 Surprise
"Three days ago, Cao Cao's general Jin and Cao Hong suddenly appeared near Shangcai, but our army didn't know about it. That night, Cao's army colluded with the Zhang family, a rich family in the city, and entered the city through the north gate. Our army was caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties. Only A few people escaped from Shangcai..."

Liu Yu received a letter from Yangquan that day, and immediately decided not to go to the front line for the time being, waiting for news from Yangquan.His decision was correct, and a second letter was sent that night, recording the whole story of Cao Jun's sneak attack.When Liu Yu finished reading the letter, he couldn't help sighing, and said: "The Zhang family, who would have thought that it would rebel? Shangcai was besieged by the enemy not once. Other families have betrayed, but the Zhang family Without rebellion, who would have thought this time?"

"But then again, if Xia Houlan wasn't in the city, and there wasn't a single general in the city, old Zhang He would never dare to rebel. Hehe, could this be the so-called time and fate?"

"The only good news is that the relocation work is basically completed, and only a small number of family members of the soldiers have not relocated. Xia Houlan and Gao Meng are also fine. It is true that time and fate are the same. I used to stay here on purpose. Under Gao Meng and Xiahou Lan, Shang Cai will not have no generals. Who would have thought that the death of Dian Wei this time would make Gao Meng sink for a long time, so he finally went to Ge Pei to rest. ...I have nothing to say!"

After knowing the whole story, Liu Yu also hated the Zhang family, but he still lamented Cao Cao's wit.For war, he has already seen it very openly. Not to mention the rebellion of the Zhang family, he can accept even the rebellion of the He family.Of course, acceptance is acceptance, but it doesn't mean no retaliation.As long as there is a chance, Liu Yu doesn't mind teaching those people some lessons, so as to frighten others.But unfortunately, the Zhang family has no chance to teach him a lesson, at least not for the time being.

After sighing about Cao Cao's surprise attack on Shangcai, Liu Yu's face became serious, and he quickly fetched the map and looked at it carefully.

"The fall of Shangcai can have great or small impacts. If it is large, it can lose the whole of Runan, and if it is small, it can limit Shangcai Yicheng. With Cao Cao's current situation, it is unlikely that the flames of war will be ignited in Runan. As for the limitation of Shangcai Yicheng, it is estimated that it is not great. Possibly. The biggest possibility... the area around Shangcai will be lost, the area around Gebei will be fine, and the area around Ruyin is very likely to be occupied by Liu Bei."

It took me more than half an hour to think and analyze by myself before I thoroughly analyzed the fall of Shangcai.Of course, this thoroughness is also relative. He may think that he is thorough, but in fact he is not thorough.But this time, his analysis was similar.

"So, here comes the question, should I send troops to take back Shangcai?"

Liu Yu himself has no answer to this question.If you say you don't want it, it's a lie, but it doesn't mean you can get it back if you think about it.To recapture Shangcai, he has to send troops, he has to send generals, and he has to work hard.The problem is that he doesn't have the energy to fight on three fronts, especially when the opponents on two sides are Cao Cao and Zhou Yu.But if he didn't take it back, he was a little unwilling and a little worried.

After hesitating for a long time, he still didn't make a decision.In the end, he decided to hand over this issue to Xu Shu. He believed that Xu Shu must have made a decision.But when he was about to write a letter to Xu Shu, a scout outside suddenly reported that someone claimed to be an old friend of the lord and wanted to visit the lord.

Liu Yu was delighted when he heard it. In Huainan, he didn't have any so-called old friends.Not to mention Huainan, even Xu Du, he doesn't have any so-called old friends.But he didn't let the soldiers drive the man away, instead he said with interest: "Bring that man in!"

"Hehe, this kind of thing happened to me unexpectedly. Could it be that he is some kind of great sage?" For Liu Yu of the Celestial Dynasty, he knew a lot about this kind of thing, but he had never encountered it.It was because of this that he didn't drive that person away, but let someone bring him in with great interest.

Maybe this matter, what if that person is really a great sage?
It has to be said that Liu Yu was lucky, and the person who came was indeed a great sage—yes, it was Lu Su who intended to join Liu Yu.

Lu Su is not indecisive, once he has a decision in his heart, he will act vigorously.Since he wanted to seek refuge with Liu Yu, he naturally came over immediately to see if Liu Yu was worth his trust.But he thought to himself that although he had some reputation in Jianghuai, Liu Yu might not know him when he first came to Jianghuai, so he thought of such a little trick.Not to mention, it really made him meet Liu Yu.

But Lu Su came in with the guards, and when he saw Liu Yu, he started to size him up.When Liu Yu saw Lu Su, he also looked up and down.

"Who are you? Since you call a certain old friend, why didn't you know him?" Seeing that Lu Su's aura was quite extraordinary, Liu Yu immediately tried it out on purpose.He first asked in a deep voice, and then gently pulled out the Mo knife from his waist.

If ordinary people saw Liu Yu's actions, they would have turned pale from fright.But Lu Su was unmoved at all, not only his face was normal, but even his breathing was still steady.

"Lu Su in Huainan, heard that the general is famous, and wanted to see it, so he made such a bad move. Please forgive me, the general."

Lu Su didn't beat around the bush at all, and directly explained the reason openly, which made Liu Yu feel good in his heart.

But he didn't know that even if he didn't say that and only said his name, Liu Yu would like Dasheng because his name was Lu Su.

No, when Liu Yu heard the word "Lu Su", his eyes brightened immediately, as if he saw a wolf like a sheep, and asked eagerly: "Are you Lu Su and Lu Zijing, a famous scholar in Huainan?"

Liu Yu's performance made Lu Su feel stunned, and he couldn't say what he had prepared. He just nodded in doubt, and then asked, "Does the general know that XX?"

"Haha, Lu Zijing in Huainan, who in the world doesn't know?" Hearing Lu Su admitting his identity, Liu Yu couldn't help laughing excitedly.

Although Lu Su's face was still calm, the smile in his eyes showed that what he said to Liu Yu was very useful.

"General Miao praises it. Su doesn't have any reputation. It's just the praise of the neighbors." Although he was happy, Lu Su said modestly.

Liu Yu naturally knew that it was Lu Su's modest words, so he didn't care, and said directly and courteously: "Zijing, Cao Mengde took this opportunity to win me into Cai, I don't know why Zijing taught me?"

Hearing this, Lu Su was also shocked, apparently he did not expect Cao Cao to attack Shangcai, and he succeeded.But before he was surprised, Liu Yu had already handed him the letter.He was a little excited, knowing that this not only represented Liu Yu's test of him, but also represented Liu Yu's trust in him.

It's funny to say, if someone else would say that Liu Yu was reckless, even Lu Su would say the same when standing in the position of someone else.But when Lu Su was the person involved, he didn't think Liu Yu was reckless, he just felt that Liu Yu trusted him.
