Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 425 Sun Zhongmou

People, many people suddenly poured out on both sides of the road, and it was impossible to see them all at a glance.

Liu Yu reined in his horse and looked at the crowds, his expression changed.But after a while, he returned to normal, and said with a smile, "Who else can help this reinforcement besides Zhou Yu?"

As if hearing Liu Yu's words, a general suddenly appeared among the soldiers and horses. He was a Confucian general, and it was Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu was extremely calm, while commanding Han Dang and others to gather up the remnants, while commanding Lu Meng to block Liu Yu's army.Soon, the remnant soldiers were gathered, and Lu Meng successfully blocked Liu Yu's army.

Of course, this is also related to Liu Yu's order to withdraw troops, otherwise the two sides would have a big fight if they said nothing.There is also a reason why Liu Yu ordered the withdrawal of troops. Firstly, the soldiers under his command have been exhausted since the war;It is precisely because of this that Liu Yu ordered the withdrawal of troops.

"Zhou Yu, actually came here." Looking at Zhou Yu and Jiang Dongbing who were gradually going away, Liu Yu couldn't help murmuring.

Afterwards, he pondered for a moment, and ordered to withdraw his troops and return to the city.

Of course, he wanted to go to Jiangdong, and he wanted to attack it quickly, but he knew that he should not be in a hurry, otherwise all previous efforts would be wasted.

Liu Yu withdrew his troops and returned to the city, and Zhou Yu also withdrew his troops and returned to the city.

After returning to Wucheng, Zhou Yu didn't panic, and even calmed down and didn't ask Sun Ce's situation immediately, but immediately set up his defenses.

After the defense was completed, it was already night.

Zhou Yu entered the camp with a blank expression on his face.

The atmosphere in the tent was oppressive, and Sun Ce lay motionless on the bed.Han Dang, Huang Gai and others surrounded the surrounding area with heavy faces, without saying a word.

"The situation, how is it?" Zhou Yu walked behind the crowd and was silent for a long time before asking.

Everyone didn't answer, and after a long time, Huang Gai said: "The doctor said that the situation is not good, it may happen at any time... we can only resign ourselves to fate!"

Zhou Yu stopped talking and looked at Sun Ce quietly. After a long time, he said again: "Let the lord recuperate first!"

Time passed quickly, more than ten days passed in a flash.For more than ten days, Zhou Yu guarded Wucheng, and Liu Yu had nothing to do.That's right, Zhou Yu is Zhou Yu after all, how can it be so easy to deal with.

But Liu Yu is not in a hurry, he also lost a lot in this battle and needs time to recuperate.In addition, in fact, he has already started, but the plan will take some time to implement.

The past ten days were definitely suffering for the Jiangdong soldiers, because Sun Ce was seriously injured and unconscious, and his life and death were unknown.But after more than ten days, they all breathed a sigh of relief because Sun Ce woke up.Although he was still weak, he was out of danger after all.

"Bo Fu, you have to take good care of your wounds during this period, and remember not to get angry, or the wounds will burst... Also, don't worry, Liu Yu thought it would not be so easy for me to pass this test." After Sun Ce woke up, Zhou Yu went to find Sun Ce in private Talked once.

The two talked quite harmoniously, and finally Sun Ce was persuaded by Zhou Yu, and was escorted back to Wujun by Han Dang and Huang Gai to recuperate from his injuries.

As soon as Sun Ce was sent back, Zhou Yu defended Liu Yu wholeheartedly.As a result, Liu Yu's several sieges all ended in failure.It is precisely because of this that the people of Jiangdong breathed a sigh of relief, and even the big clans that were about to rebel temporarily stopped.

However, how did they know that this was actually Liu Yu's strategy.If Liu Yu wants to break through Wucheng, why not just attack him, wouldn't that be much faster?
It turned out that after Liu Ye arrived in Jiangxia, he occasionally fought with Sun Quan.The so-called knowing yourself and knowing the enemy can win a hundred battles, so Liu Ye naturally wanted to investigate Sun Quan carefully.However, during this investigation, Liu Ye suddenly discovered something unusual, and that was Sun Quan's ambition.

Upon discovering this, Liu Ye immediately conducted a more in-depth investigation, and then he discovered that Sun Quan had trained his soldiers in private, enlisted the generals in the army, and had personal relationships with the big clans in Jiangdong.Not only that, Liu Ye also discovered that Sun Quan had... signs of conspiracy, but he stopped because of the urgency of the war.

After the investigation was clear, Liu Ye realized that this was an opportunity.Afterwards, after a lot of planning, he came up with a brilliant plan and presented it to Liu Yu.

With little hesitation, Liu Yu decided to adopt this plan, and matched it with Pang Tong's plan...

The reason for doing this was not because a strong attack could not break Wu Cheng, but because the price would be too high for Liu Yu to afford.After all, Liu Yu still has to seize the opportunity to go to the Northern Expedition or capture Jingzhou. He can't have too much loss at all, otherwise he can only watch the opportunity pass by.

It is precisely because of this that Jiangdong gradually stabilized, and Liu Yu and Zhou Yu were anxious, unable to tell the winner.At this time, Sun Quan finally returned to Wu County, using the excuse of reporting on his work and visiting Sun Ce.

No one doubted.

Sun Quan came back at dusk. He rode to the gate of the city, looked at the silent Wujun quietly, and sighed secretly: "I don't know what happened to him, Jiangdong has gradually settled down. I believe it will not be long before Liu Yu is about to withdraw his troops... If the eldest brother..."

His mind was complicated, Sun Quan was still young after all at this time, not vicious enough, not gloomy enough, that's why he was so contradictory.If in a few more years, when he grows up to be the Great Emperor of Soochow Wu, there will be absolutely no conflicts.

Back in the city, Sun Quan went to report on his work first, and then returned to the mansion to visit Sun Ce.

"Brother, how are you?" When he came to Sun Ce's bedroom, Sun Quan had a concerned smile on his face.

Sun Ce's temperament was much better. Although his face was still a little pale, it was much better than before.

"Zhongmou, you did a good job this time... Cough cough, even if something happens to me now, I can go with peace of mind." Sun Ce said while coughing loudly.

Sun Quan's eyes flickered, but he returned to normal after a while, and said, "Brother, you are almost healed, don't say you are dead or not."

After debriefing and visiting Sun Ce and his family, Sun Quan returned to his residence.After returning home, he sat alone in the study for a long time.

Sun Quan was actually called back by Sun Ce this time, not because he was worried about him, but because he was asked to handle Wu County's political affairs.Although Sun Ce was out of danger, he couldn't do anything at all, so it was natural to leave it to Zhang Zhao.But Zhang Zhao was not from the Sun family after all, so Sun Ce called Sun Quan back.

After Sun Quan came back, he dealt with political affairs with Zhang Zhao and others.In the beginning, Zhang Zhao and the others just told him alone and didn't let him intervene at all, but later he insisted on resorting to tricks so that they could not ignore him.

The power is in his hands, and this time, Sun Quan really tasted it.That feeling is really ecstatic, so refreshing.But once, when Sun Ce came to inspect, Sun Quan found that all the people standing in front of him respectfully ran to Sun Ce.

After this time, a certain idea in Sun Quan's mind grew stronger and often came to mind.Coupled with Lu Xun's bewitching, Sun Quan really couldn't hold back.

Finally, something happened that made Sun Quan make up his mind.
