Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 663

Ganchi's Jin Yiwei and Mu Nan's secret agents have all dispersed, looking around for news.Mu Nan was very discouraged and told Zhou Cang that Yizhou was really difficult to penetrate. When Liu Bei went to Hanzhong, Zhuge Liang presided over the military administration and almost completely blocked Yizhou.Wanting to travel through the deep mountains and old forests is wishful thinking. I don't know the path, wolves, tigers and leopards, poisonous gas and miasma, barbarians and savages, any of them will be a dead end.Zhou Cang had no choice but to comfort Mu Nan, taking his time and not in a hurry.

Zhou Cang never figured it out, whether Guan Yu was negligent or Lu Meng was cunning, crossing the river in white clothes should not be so simple, the information Han Bao brought back revealed his doubts.It turned out that the problem was with Hao Pu and Liu Zhang, who provided convenience for Lu Meng.

Zhou Wen said with a chuckle: "After all, Lu Ziming is not as grand as Zhou Gongjin. Thanks to him coming up with such a trick, Jingzhou will definitely be taken by him."

Zhou Cang sighed: "Sun Quan is still a little impatient. It would be better if we wait for Guan Yu to defeat Fancheng."

"I can't blame Sun Quan. Guan Yunchang's flooding of the Seventh Army frightened him too much. He sent troops at this time not only to win Jingzhou, but also to recruit 3 or [-] horses, so why not do it. Besides, Liu Bei is too late to rescue in Guanzhong now. It's going to change!" Zhou Wen smiled: "Jingzhou is so lively, it's best that Liu Bei can send troops out of Sichuan again, hahaha..."

"With the help of Hao Pu and Liu Zhang, it won't be long before Lu Meng takes Jingzhou, and Liu Bei won't have time to return to the army. As for Zhuge Liang, hehe." Zhou Cang sneered.

"My lord, do you think Zhuge Liang won't send troops?" Zhou Wen was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, as if Zhuge Liang and Guan Yu were not so harmonious. "My lord, do you think we're telling Guan Yu a little bit about Hao Pu and Liu Zhang?"

"I'm afraid it's too late. Even if it's too late, Guan Yu may not believe it. The people we sent will suffer."

"Then shall we just wait and watch?" Zhou Wen hesitated. "It's not a good strategy for Gongming to be in Shouchun. Deng Ai and Huang Zhong are in Xiapi. Can you let them fight?"

"I'm not worried that the two are not rivals between Zhang Liao and Li Dian. I'm just worried that General Huang was angry in the previous defeat and Zhang Liao took advantage of him. I know his temper. I'm afraid Deng Ai will not be able to persuade Huang Zhong." Zhou Cang wink. "Sun Quan wants to take Jingzhou. I don't believe that Cao Cao is not moved. When the two fight, no, there is Liu Bei. When the three fight, the siege of Shouchun will be resolved."

Zhou Wen sipped his tea and tasted it carefully. "Shouchun is like this tea, you need to taste it slowly to get the taste. If we don't move now, Cao Cao can't figure it out, so this game of chess will be easy to play."

"Zhou Chong sent a letter saying that the road to Jingxing has been opened, and he is going to Bingzhou. In addition, he first borrowed Xuanjia from Junyi, second, asked Yang Rui to take over Bingzhou, and third, planned to plan the Huns."

Zhou Wen chuckled: "It seems that I can retire."

Zhou Cang glared at Zhou Wen, then sighed. "It will take another two years to go home and hold my grandson. You have really worked hard these years."

"Hey, without my lord, I would have already died in the wilderness or in the market. How could I be where I am today?"

"Don't talk about that, let's talk about Bingzhou." Zhou Cang brought the topic back. "With the help of Xuanjiaqi, it should not be difficult to seize Bingzhou."

"Well, our army spent a lot in this battle." Zhou Wen shook his head, "The gold alone costs 4000 taels, and the armor and supplies are countless. But according to the Lord, if you can spend more money, you can pay less losses." It's worth it."

4000 taels of gold are one million silver coins, 50 million coins, and [-] billion old coins. How can people not feel distressed.

"Hehe, not to mention that I own the Donglai Gold Mine, as well as the proceeds from Donglai and Wa Kingdom, the money should have been paid to Zhang Xiu, but I actually didn't spend much." According to the agreement between Zhou Cang and Zhang Xiu, the original loan The two thousand Xiliang iron cavalry had to repay 4000 taels of gold, and they were forced to stop sending it to Zhang Quan only once. After that, Zhang Xiu and Zhang Quan died one after another, and the money disappeared from the creditor.Cao Pi killed Zhang Quan and ransacked Zhang Quan's home, but made a fortune. "The money was given to Xianbei and the Huns, and sooner or later they will spit it out."

"Yang Rui temporarily manages the government affairs of Bingzhou, and you can choose some officials to go to Bingzhou, and if there is any shortage, you can choose from the local area." Zhou Cang continued: "Obtain Bingzhou, and Qingzhou is in my hands. Li Yang has no pressure, and Xingba is gone. After the completion of the Yellow River Navy, I intend to transfer Junyi to Bingzhou to create a situation where he wants to go south to Sizhou to put pressure on Cao Cao."

"Just as I was about to discuss this matter with my lord, although Zhou Chong tried to trick the Xiongnu and the Xianbei, it was inevitable that there would be repetitions. He needed a general to guard him to ensure that nothing would happen. It would be best if Junyi went."

"It is estimated that the war in Bingzhou is coming to an end at this time. I want to go to Jizhou to discuss follow-up countermeasures with Yuanzhi and Junyi. After coming and going for a month, Qingzhou will be temporarily handed over to you and Boyan."

"Don't worry, my lord." Zhou Wen said with a smile. "My lord, why don't you bring the eldest son with you? He will be fifteen soon. I remember that the lord left home alone at the age of 16." Zhou Xin not only needs to travel more to gain insights and experience, but also to communicate more with these important civil and military officials. .

"Well, I want to take him. He won't come back with me, and go north to Youzhou, Pingzhou, and Jeju on the way."

"When does my lord intend to leave? Who will accompany me?"

"Three days later, there are not many accompanying people, and don't publicize it to the outside world. Jiang Gan, the head of the Xuanfu Department, and Xu Liang, Liu Xuan, and Sun Yao are enough." Zhou Cang smiled wryly, "I'm afraid Liu Xuan and Sun Yao are about to Leave it to Xun Chen and Yang Rui. Then there will be Xiaoman and Qu Fengxian as guards, and then let Duanmuling, Lu Fengxian and Zhou Xin continue to go north. Xiaoman has just become a father, so go early and return early." A few months ago, Xin Xianying had only one son left. , Zhou Cang named Dianzhong, Zhou Cang has a third generation under his command.

As soon as he heard that Jiang Gan was accompanying him, Zhou Wen understood what Zhou Cang meant. Zhou Cang was not only concerned about the military and people's livelihood, but also wanted to attack some old forces in Jizhou. I don't know who doesn't have eyes?
"By the way, Han Bao made another great contribution this time. He was transferred from Munan to serve as the deputy envoy of Jinyiwei to Ganchi. There is no water in Yizhou, so let's ignore it for the time being. Tell Han Bao to go to Jiangdong again and keep an eye on it. Sun Quan. I always feel that it is Sun Quan who has gained the most and lost the least this time, and I don’t know what Sun Quan will do.”

Zhou Wen sighed: "Sun Quan and Cao Cao are getting closer and closer, which is not a good thing for me. I am most worried that he will be bad for Gongming."

"After I leave, if Sun Quan captures Jingzhou, you can send Wang Can to congratulate him. He wanted me to be king last time. This time I will persuade him to be king of Wu. Let's see how he responds. If he agrees, it's okay to say, but if he refuses You have to be careful, tell Wang Can to go to Shouchun to see Gongming when he comes back, tell him to be careful of Sun Quan, and be careful not to be stabbed in the back by him. Then you send people to Xiapi, and tell Deng Ai and Huang Zhong to be fully prepared , to meet Gongming to break through at any time."
