Emperor Road of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 454 Talk
At dusk, Zhongxing Palace.

In the study, Liu Yu put down his teacup without haste, raised his head and said with a smile, "Come, Zijing, have a cup of tea with me."

Although Lu Su was anxious, he sat down and took a sip of tea.But because he drank too fast, he did burn himself.

Liu Yu shook his head and smiled, he was not drinking tea, and asked slowly: "Zijing, is there something wrong, why are you so anxious? Talk slowly, no matter how anxious you are, you don't care about it for a while."

"My lord, is something really wrong?" Lu Su smiled wryly, and although he was still a little anxious, he still took a sip of tea.

Putting down the teacup, Lu Su organized his words, and then said: "My lord, Zi Yang has already completed what you told me."

"Oh, could it be that Huang Zhong surrendered?" Before Lu Su finished speaking, Liu Yu interrupted with joy.

Lu Su smiled speechlessly, thinking to himself who said there was no need to be anxious just now, why did he become so anxious now?Of course, he only thought about these words in his heart, but he said something else, "Young master guessed right, it was Huang Zhong who surrendered. It's really not easy for Huang Zhong to surrender. If Zi Yang didn't do it himself, and After repeated calculations, and finally threatening Liu Pan's life, Huang Zhong might not surrender. But I never expected that Huang Zhong would be so strong."

"Haha. Zijing, Han Sheng is also today's Lian Po." Lu Su praised Huang Zhong so much, but Liu Yu laughed out loud, as if he was being praised.

Lu Su was speechless again, shook his head with a wry smile, and then said: "In addition, Jingbei is almost pacified. Although Liu Pan is not dead, he is also imprisoned in the north. It seems that there will be no disturbances. The whole Jingzhou is almost covered by Ziyang and Shuzhi. , Every piece of paper and every weapon has been taken over."

Liu Yu laughed again, his eyes full of pride.He deserves to be proud, although this is not a strategy he thought of, but it is in his hands.Without him, how could it be possible to conquer Jiangnan?No, no, Jiangnan has not yet recovered, after all, there are still some places that have not been recovered.

Thinking of this, Liu Yu's eyes suddenly lit up, wondering if he should do something to Jiaozhou?But before he could say this idea, Lu Su spoke again.With this opening, Liu Yu consciously put away his delusions.

It turned out that when Liu Yu was proud, Lu Su suddenly gave a wry smile, and said bravely: "Young master, although the situation in Jingzhou is good, but the north is not very optimistic, please turn your attention to the Central Plains, don't be limited by the present." .”

When Lu Su said this, he was actually subtly admonishing Liu Yu.Since Liu Yu's successive victories, especially since winning Jiangdong, defeating Lu Bu, and winning Jingzhou, he has been so proud.On weekdays, he also becomes lazy, even a bit "faint".

Naturally, Liu Yu couldn't feel his own changes.But he is not someone who doesn't listen to suggestions, so when Lu Su said this, he was shocked immediately, and thought carefully about what he had done these days.

Then, he couldn't help but ask himself, is this really him?Yes, there is basically no change, but the lazy and arrogant look, the idle look, is not at all the aggressive self of the past.Not only that, he found that he was a little slack in his martial arts practice, and he rode less horses, so that he had more thigh meat.

Thinking about it, he suddenly felt terrified. If he was like this, what about his soldiers?Have they, too, become lazy and arrogant?
Yes, I am afraid that is the case.What's even more frightening is that if Lu Su didn't wake him up, he would lead them to the Northern Expedition in such a state. Even if he defeated Yuan Shi, he might not be Cao Cao's opponent.At that time, he might be like Cao Cao of Chibi, ushering in a big defeat, an unprecedented defeat, even worse than Cao Cao in Chibi.

"Zijing, if you hadn't woken me up, I'm afraid..." Liu Yu looked at Lu Su gratefully, but at the same time, he was still terrified and terrified.

Lu Su finally showed a smile, but quickly suppressed it, and then continued to say respectfully: "My lord, there is no war, otherwise, my lord would not be like this."

Having said this, he ended the cryptic conversation just now, and then Lu Su changed his tone and said: "The situation in the north is indeed not good. Recently, the three Yuan brothers have fought violently. Not only that, Cao Cao even quietly won Bingzhou among them. , and even reached out to Hedong. In addition, it seems that Cao Cao also reached out to Hanzhong, but the news has not been confirmed yet.”

Lu Su's words really shocked Liu Yu.He didn't expect that Cao Cao had developed to this stage unknowingly.Guanzhong, it was settled by him a long time ago; Bingzhou, that was also completely taken by him; Hanzhong, it seems that this place was also taken by him.Even Hedong, he has already started to intervene.

"This Cao Cao is really powerful. He stood up again without knowing it. The territory is not smaller than me. It seems that Cao Cao also has the idea of ​​​​making a profit."

After being shocked, Liu Yu couldn't help but fell into deep thought, with a sense of urgency at the same time.

"Zijing, what do you think we should do next, take Shuzhong first, or go north with the army?" Unable to figure it out, Liu Yu immediately asked Lu Su, while staring at Lu Su with piercing eyes.

At this moment, the enterprising Liu Yu came back, and the sleeping lion woke up again.Because Liu Yu thought of Cao Cao, and thought of this great man.

Lu Su was overjoyed, secretly thinking that the young master finally had high fighting spirit again.But for Liu Yu's problem, he has nothing to do.Of course, he still has some opinions of his own, "Minor ailment in Sichuan is not worth the loss, so you can ignore it for the time being. The top priority now is the north, not only San Yuan, but also Cao Cao. With Cao Cao's heroic appearance, he is definitely the most important thing in your life. enemy."

"Well, you're right." Liu Yu knocked on the desk, lost in thought again, thinking about what Lu Su said just now.Afterwards, he pondered and said, "It's just... how about it, Zijing, please inform us, and we will discuss it together tomorrow. Yuan Shi, what is the solution!"

With a faint sigh, Liu Yu looked to the north with green eyes, like a hungry wolf.

Afterwards, the two talked for a while, and then Lu Su withdrew.After Lu Su left Zhongxing Palace, he immediately returned to the palace and ordered people to pass the order to the civil servants and generals.

Most of those civil and military people didn't know why, but some people still realized that there was an excited smile of anticipation on their faces.

On the second day, everyone did not gather because Liu Yu postponed the time.There is no other reason, but because Xu Shu is coming back to report on his work, so Liu Yu is going to wait for Xu Shu to come back to talk again.But he didn't want to, he didn't wait for Xu Shu back, but he waited for another person.

When Liu Yu heard the man's name, his eyes widened in disbelief.
