Jagged hegemony of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 867
"Chasing, chase him back for me!"

Seeing that Sun Ce was about to run away, Sun Quan would not let him go, so he ordered Gu Li to chase Sun Ce.

Ke Gu Li was shot in the back by Sun Ce, vomited blood, and said to Sun Quan: "My lord, we have no horses, how can we catch up with him! Let's retreat for now, gather the defeated army, and make another plan!"

"I'm mad at me too!"

Sun Ce was injured, and it seemed that he could take him down, but he let Sun Ce run away because he had no horses. How could this not make Sun Quan not angry.

"King Wu, I can't hold it anymore!"

After Gu Li finished speaking, his eyes went dark and he fell off the horse.

Just now, Sun Ce's shot hit Gu Li's back, causing Gu Li to suffer serious internal injuries.

"Hey, let's go, set up Gu Li, let's go back!"

Sun Quan didn't dare to go back to the camp, so he retreated to Lujiang to guard, while asking Liu Bei for help.

Sun Ce gathered Sun Quan's defeated army. Sun Quan's 1 soldiers and horses escaped with [-] to [-], and nearly [-] people were killed. Horses, plus the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses left behind in Xuzhou, Sun Ce has a total of more than [-] soldiers.

Let’s talk about Liu Bei, after receiving Sun Quan’s distress letter, he was so angry that he almost flipped the table. He was competing with Liu Zhang. He sent a large number of soldiers and horses in Changsha and Lingling counties, just to prevent Liu Zhang’s soldiers. Ma went down the river, but Liu Zhang marched into Jiangdong from Xinggu County (Jiaozhou) to support Sun Shao. This was enough to make Liu Bei angry. Originally, Liu Bei wanted to unite with Sun Quan to destroy Sun Shao, but he didn't expect Sun Quan to be so disappointing. The guy even took the initiative to provoke Sun Ce, even if he provoked Sun Ce, the 5 army could not beat [-], and the most annoying thing was that Sun Ce defeated the Chinese army with [-] cavalry.

"My lord, since Liu Zhang can't stop Liu Zhang from sending troops to the east of the Yangtze River, instead of wasting troops in Lingling and Changsha, we might as well help Sun Quan destroy Sun Ce!"

Zhuge Liang suggested.

"This Liu Zhang must have someone to help him, otherwise how could he think of borrowing a road from Jiaozhou!"

Liu Bei said bitterly.

"My lord, there are many heroes in Sichuan and Shu, and there are many capable people. However, Liu Zhang is weak and can't employ people. Don't worry too much about Liu Zhang, but we have to pay attention to Sun Ce. My lord has fought against Sun Ce. I don't need Sun Ce's bravery. More to say, now Sun Ce is released by Liu Wei, but Jiangdong is lost, that is, the dragon soars in the shallow bottom, and the tiger falls in the flat sun, if Sun Ce regains control of Jiangdong, our previous investment may be in vain!"

There are only two people in the world that Zhuge Liang is afraid of. One is Liu Wei from the north. Liu Wei is good at using troops, and Zhuge Liang feels ashamed of himself. The other is Sun Ce. Sun Ce is brave and good at fighting, and Zhuge Liang is also afraid.

For the rest of Liu Zhang, Sun Quan, and Zhang Lu's generation, Zhuge Liang regarded them as worthless and nothing to worry about.

"What do you propose?"

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and asked.

Zhuge Liang clapped his hands, and a person came in from the door.

Zhuge Liang pulled him over, and introduced to Liu Bei: "My lord, this person is my apprentice in Jingzhou. In the past few years, I have taught all my knowledge, and my apprentice has already learned my knowledge. You can send him to support Sun Quan!"

Liu Bei looked at this person, he was indeed a good-looking talent, and he was Zhuge Liang's apprentice, so he couldn't help but look up at this person.

Seeing Liu Bei looking at him, the man saluted him, "Students Deng Ai, Ai, Ai, have met King Chu Chu!"

"This……!"

It was fine if Deng Ai didn't speak, but when he spoke, Liu Bei's eyebrows were all wrinkled, why is this person stuttering?
Zhuge Liang saw that Liu Bei's face was a little ugly.Then he explained: "My lord, my apprentice has a bit of a mouth disease, he was born with a stutter, but he fights with soldiers, I believe he will not be inferior to those generals under the lord's command!"

"Military master, don't fool me!"

Regarding Zhuge Liang's words, Liu Bei was skeptical about how capable a stuttering person could be.

"Hahahaha, the lord knows how capable my disciple is by using him!"

Zhuge Liang gave Deng Ai an encouraging look, telling him to show his loyalty to Liu Bei.

Deng Ai stammered again: "Ai, I would like to be the king of Chu, to do, to do, to do the work of a dog and a horse!"

"Okay, then I will appoint you as a former general. You will lead [-] troops to Jiangdong to aid Sun Quan and help Sun Quan resist Sun Ce!"

Although Liu Bei didn't quite believe that Deng Ai had great abilities, but he was Zhuge Liang's apprentice, so he had to give Zhuge Liang face.

Zhuge Liang also said to Deng Ai: "The lord has used you so much, you go to Jiangdong this time, don't lose the face of the lord, you must show the prestige of our Jingzhou army!"

"Here!"

One word Deng Ai is not enough to stammer.

"Go down!"

Zhuge Liang patted Deng Ai's back.

Deng Ai's name is Shizai, a native of Jiyang, Yiyang. Zhuge Liang talked with Deng Ai when he was out, and found that although he stuttered, he had abilities different from ordinary people. After talking with him, Zhuge Liang began to love talents. , accepted Deng Ai as an apprentice, taught Deng Ai knowledge, Deng Ai also strived for success, and learned what Zhuge Liang taught in a few years.

Now is the time for employing people, Zhuge Liang pushed Deng Ai out, recommended Deng Ai to Liu Bei, Liu Bei also gave Zhuge Liang face, and let Deng Ai lead an army to support Sun Quan.

After Deng Ai left, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei walked in, saluted Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, and said, "Brother, military advisor, we heard that Sun Quan was defeated by Sun Ce, so we are here to ask for orders to go to Jiangdong to meet Sun Ce for a while."

"Uh, no need, I've already sent someone there!"

Liu Bei answered.

"Who?"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei asked in astonishment.

"Could it be that the elder brother sent Liu Feng?"

Zhang Fei asked.

"No, it's Deng Ai!"

"Deng Ai? Who is Deng Ai?"

Zhang Fei looked at Guan Yu.I thought it was Guan Yu's man.

Guan Yu shook his head: "Nobody, I've never heard of it!"

"Brother, who is this Deng Ai, is it reliable?"

Zhang Fei didn't know that Deng Ai was Zhuge Liang's apprentice, so he asked carelessly.

Zhuge Liang's head was full of black lines, these two bastards, his apprentice was belittled by them just like that.

Seeing that Zhuge Liang's face was not good, Liu Bei reprimanded the two of them: "Don't be unreasonable. Deng Ai is a senior student of the military master. If you are presumptuous, let me out!"

"Forehead!"

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei looked at Zhuge Liang at the same time. Seeing Zhuge Liang's face was ugly, they hurriedly apologized to Zhuge Liang: "Don't blame the military commander, we really didn't know that Deng Ai was your apprentice!"

"It's okay, my apprentice has been studying with me, it's normal if you don't know, but this time to help Sun Quan, when my beloved apprentice defeats Sun Ce, he will become famous all over the world!"

Zhuge Liang is full of confidence in Deng Ai, after all, he brought it out by himself, whether it is a worm or a dragon, it depends on this time.
