Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 316 The plan will be calculated (2)

"Thank you, Prime Minister!" Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were very grateful and kowtowed their heads repeatedly!
"Okay! I've wronged you two, sit down!" Li Song said, pointing at the stone beside him, motioning for them to do so.

"Thank you, Prime Minister! I won't be wronged!" Cai Mao said hastily. The leader said that he has worked hard and wronged you.

The two of Cai Mao were born in the gentry, and they have been struggling in this society for many years. They know when to be polite and when to be rude.

"The truth has seen through Zhou Yu's trick early in the morning, and it is ridiculous to think that a small trick can deceive the truth!" Li Song said.

"The prime minister's eyes are as bright as a torch! How can Zhou Yu and his ilk be compared with the prime minister! Compared with the prime minister, Zhou Yu is nothing worth mentioning. How can the light of rice grains compete with the bright moon." Cai Mao hurriedly slipped his beard to pat the horse, but the prime minister's expression was unimpressed. very useful.

"Okay! There are still important things that need to be done by the two of you. If this matter is completed, the destruction of Dongwu is just around the corner. At that time, you will be the first ones! The truth will be rewarded!" Li Song finished enjoying Cai Mao's flattery , Said to the two.

The two looked at each other, and they both saw an opportunity in each other's eyes. They hurriedly knelt down on one knee, cupped their fists and saluted: "Your prime minister, just give orders! I am willing to do my best for the prime minister and die!"

Li Song knew that if he wanted them to really work hard for him, he had to give them benefits. After all, the emperor did not send hungry soldiers, and they would work harder after they tasted the sweetness.

"Cai Mao, I canonize you as Marquis of Dangyang County, and Zhang Yun, I canonize you as Marquis of Yicheng County. If you two settle this matter well, these two counties will be the titles that your descendants will inherit for generations." Li Song Draw cakes for the two of them.

Cai Mao and Zhang Yun were overjoyed. When they first surrendered, the titles they conferred were just empty titles in name only. Don't say anything about territory, let alone hereditary replacements.

"Thank you, Prime Minister! Please rest assured, Prime Minister! Even if I die, I will do this for the Prime Minister." Cai Hao and Zhang Yun immediately expressed their loyalty.

"You two, come here!" Li Song beckoned to the two of them, and the two rushed to listen to them, Li Song said in their ears, so and so, after hearing this, the two bowed their hands and left.

"Zhongkang! Do you think it's a bit rash for Zhenxiang to do this? Can Cai Mao and Zhang Yun be reliable?" Li Song said suddenly.

He beat Xu Chu by surprise, how could he know this, he cupped his fists and saluted, "Prime Minister, forgive me! I don't know."

"Hmm! I shouldn't have asked you this! But I like your frankness. You say what you say. If you know it, you know it. You will never talk about him!" Li Song said, Xu Chu was still confused.

The spy sent by Jiangzuo found out about Cai Hao and Zhang Yun's beheading, and immediately reported back to Jiangdong.Zhou Yu was overjoyed when he heard about it, and said, "Apart from Gan Ning and Li Shunchen, these are the people I'm worried about. Now I'm plotting to kill them and cut off my own arm. It's really satisfying."

Lu Su hastily offered a flattery and said, "The governor is so powerful in using troops, how can he be worried that he can't kill Thief Li!"

Zhou Yu pressed the hilt of the sword with one hand, and stretched out his finger into a sword pointing with the other: "I guess the generals don't know my strategy, and Zhuge Liang is the only one who knows this. I'm afraid I can't hide my strategy from him."

After Zhou Yu was silent for a while, he said to Lu Su: "Zijing, go and help me try the language to see if he knows or doesn't know at all. No matter what the result is, come back and tell me."

"No! Governor, please rest assured!" Lu Su cupped his hands, Zhou Yu waved his hand, and Lu Su turned to leave.

Lu Su took Zhou Yu's order and came to visit Zhuge Liang in the boat. Zhuge Liang put Lu Su into the boat and sat opposite him.

Lu Su said to Zhuge Liang: "I've been busy with official business these days, so I didn't come to listen to your lecture."

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, poured a cup of tea for Lu Su, put it in front of him, and said with a smile: "It's just that Liang never went to congratulate the governor."

Lu Su was stunned, he really didn't know what Zhuge Liang was talking about?Hastily asked: "He Xi?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Mr. Gongjin came to find out whether he knew or not. I'm talking about this matter. Congratulations."

Zhuge Liang smiled and Lu Su turned pale and asked, "How did the master know about this?"

Zhuge Liang thought to himself, this story has been known on both sides of the Yangtze River, how could I not know anything about it, of course I heard it.

Zhuge Liang said: "This strategy can only fool Jiang Gan. Although Li Song was concealed for a while, he was able to wake up quickly, but he refused to admit his fault! Now that Cai and Zhang are dead, Jiang Dong The hidden dangers are reduced a lot, so how can I not congratulate you!"

"I heard that Cao Lisong replaced Xu Huang and Yu Jin as the captains of the navy. In the hands of these two people, the lives of the navy will be ruined sooner or later."

"The two of them are good at fighting on foot and on horseback, but it's a pity that they don't know how to use water. As long as they use it properly, it is not difficult to kill Li thief."

"It's just that if Gan Ning and Yi Sun-shin are not eliminated, they will eventually become the biggest hidden danger in Jiangdong!"

After hearing this, Lu Su couldn't speak, he hesitated for a while, and finally had to leave Zhuge Liang and go back.

Before leaving, Zhuge Liang told Lu Su: "Wang Zijing must not talk about Prophet Liang in front of Gongjin. I am afraid that Gongjin will be jealous and try to frame Liang again."

Lu Su left as promised, went back to see Zhou Yu, and told Zhou Yu all the above things truthfully.After hearing this, Zhou Yu was shocked and said: "This person must not stay! I decided to kill him and cut off such hidden dangers for Jiangdong!"

Lu Su hastily persuaded him: "If you kill Kong Ming, you will definitely be laughed at by Li Song. What's more, it's still a time of war. It's probably inappropriate for the governor to kill people indiscriminately like this."

Zhou Yu said: "Of course I have a way to behead him, and let him die without regret."

Lu Su asked, "I don't know what strategy the governor will use?"

In order to prevent Lu Su from leaking the news, Zhou Yu said to Lu Su: "Zijing, it's better not to ask about this matter, you will know everything by tomorrow."

The next day, Zhou Yu gathered all the generals under the tent and sent someone to invite Zhuge Liang to discuss the matter together.Zhuge Liang arrived happily.

After sitting down, Zhou Yu asked Zhuge Liang: "We will soon fight against Li Jun. When fighting by water, what weapon should we use first?"

Zhuge Liang said: "Above the great river, bows and arrows are the first choice."

Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang who had been led into a trap by himself and said, "Sir, what you said is very suitable for me. But right now our army is short of arrows to use, so I ask you to supervise the production of [-] arrows, so that they can be used against the enemy at that time." .This is official business, please don't refuse, sir."

Zhuge Liang had already seen Zhou Yu's plot. It seemed that he insisted on his own death, thinking that he had no choice but to board a grass boat to borrow arrows.
