After sending Huang Gai away, Zhou Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't take it to heart at all when he said that Liu Qi would reuse himself when he was leaving, after all, there are many famous people under the command of the other party, and many of them defected to his name from the beginning, such as Xu Shu, Pang Tong, Jia Xu and others, these tasks are all young and handsome, and they have made great contributions to Liu Qi, even the newly rising young general Lu Xun is not much inferior to himself, these people are not only talented, but also loyal to Liu Qi, where can there be people like themselves, Following the Sun family for two generations, and being loyal to the Sun brothers from the bottom of his bones, if he let himself be in power, wouldn't he be worried that he would have different ambitions?

And his talents are mainly good at strategic planning and controlling the overall situation, if he is not the commander of one side, he is no different from ordinary generals.

What's more, he has long been determined to die, and all his thoughts are lost, so he won't think about anything to make a contribution at all.

In fact, Zhou Yu didn't have such an idea now, after he judged that the Jiangdong forces were destroyed, he had already prepared the plan to surrender in his heart, but he still decided to commit suicide after surrendering, and went underground with Sun Ce to fight the world.

He only waited for Wanling City to surrender to Liu Qi and save a city of soldiers and civilians, and then died.

After that, Zhou Yu ordered to go down, all the soldiers defending the city were withdrawn from the city, and all the generals gathered their troops and horses, preparing to go out of the city and surrender at noon the next day.

For Zhou Yu's decision, there was no objection in everyone's hearts, because they had long known that there was no food and grass in Wanling City today, and there was no rescue soldiers outside, so there was no possibility of saving it at all, and surrender was the only way out.

Now that Zhou Yu issued the order to surrender, everyone's hearts are extremely relaxed, not only because they saved their lives, but also because the tens of thousands of people in Wanling City finally escaped a war, and from then on, the entire Jiangdong region will not encounter war for a long time, which is definitely a great good thing for the people of Jiangdong who have been fighting hard for nearly ten years.

Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was noon the next day, Zhou Yu led the team to the front, ordered his soldiers to raise the white flag, open the city gate, and then slowly went out of the city, came to Liu Qi's horse outside the moat, and held a surrender ceremony.

This time Zhou Yu's surrender was different from any previous surrenderer, he did not bare his back and tie himself, but only took off his armor, dressed in a scribe's uniform, with his hands behind his back, slowly walked to Liu Qi's horse, and then hugged his fists and said: "The criminal minister of the lower state, I don't know the general's Tianwei, I am offended, please forgive the general." ”

Liu Qi saw that Zhou Yu was finally willing to submit to himself, and couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly helped the other party up, and said with a smile: "I have long admired Zhou Gongjin's temperament, elegance, and he is a genius through the ages. If you want to get Zhou Langgu, you always flick the strings by mistake. Hehe, Gong Jin ** suave, it's a blessing to be able to see it today. ”

After finishing speaking, Liu Qi took Zhou Yu's hand affectionately, and then said with a straight face: "Zhou Yu listens to the order, I want to worship you as the general of Anbei, lead the Nanyang Taishou, and the rear military division, and order you to lead the old Wanling Department and the people of Nanyang, with General Lu Meng as the deputy, Liu Bei of Nanyang and Cao Cao of Xuchang, I don't know if the general is willing to follow my wishes?" ”

"Huh? What the? Hearing Liu Qi's words, Zhou Yu couldn't help but be stunned, because he never thought that Liu Qi would give him such a high position as soon as he came up, as the commander of one party, and give himself the name of General Anbei, as far as he knows, in Liu Qi's army, only General Anton, Yangzhou Thorn Shi Xu Shu and General Annan, Jiaozhou Thorn Shi Pei Qian have such treatment, and his current status is even above the red and purple Lu Xun, how can this not make him feel a little moved in his heart?

"Hehe, I know that Gong Jin is loyal and virtuous, and it is the luck of the general to be able to create an immortal career with you, and it is the luck of my great man, I know that Gong Jin has no last resort since he came out, and he is like a god, and your defeat today is not due to his own lack of talent, but because he has not won the master."

Liu Qi looked at Zhou Yu who wanted to open his mouth to say something, and said with a smile: "Ben will know what Gong Jin wants to say, in fact, Sun Bofu and Sun Zhongmou are also great heroes, especially Sun Bofu, who can be said to be as close to Gong Jin as a brother, and more obedient to his words, Gong Jin's favor and trust can be said to be extremely rare throughout the ages, in fact, I don't object to this, but Bo Fu, as the master of one party, with the respect of ten thousand times, personally braved the arrow stone, and took the lead, although it can boost morale, but it also makes himself in a dangerous situation, This point would have been seen clearly, Sun Zhongmou could also see it clearly, and even Zhang Zigang was also clear, otherwise, how could Ben have succeeded in two consecutive sneak attacks? How could Sun Zhongmou have a chance to assassinate him? ”

"This ......" Zhou Yu couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, because of Sun Ce's problem, why didn't he see it clearly at the beginning? If he really accepted it completely, I am afraid that with the close cooperation between them, even if he can't defeat Liu Qi, he will definitely be able to keep the land of Jiangdong lightly, and there will be no shame of today's defeat.

And Liu Qi's next sentence made Zhou Yu even more deafening: "Whether it is the lord of one side, or the commander of one party, or even the general of an army, you can't be brave, this is war, the sword has no eyes, it's okay if you have nothing to do, once something happens, you will lose the whole war because of your own mistakes, and even lose the grand cause, lose the happiness and hope of the ministers and the people, this can no longer be regarded as brave, but can only be said to be extremely irresponsible, not responsible for yourself, not responsible for your parents, wives and children, not responsible for your ministers, It is not responsible for the people of the world. Of course, we sometimes need generals who charge into battle, but we must ensure that these generals can maintain the normal fighting of the whole team after being injured, that is, we need competent and authoritative lieutenants. ”

"Irresponsible......" Zhou Yu listened to this word, although he felt very shocked, but I have to say that he felt the same way in his heart, and faintly had a hint of confidant, chewing this word gently, the more he chewed, the more he felt the taste, after a while, he sighed and said silently: "Bo Fu, if I could criticize you as fiercely as he did, maybe the end of the matter would not be the way it is now, blame me for paying too much attention to the etiquette of the monarch and ministers at that time, and I didn't expect such an incisive advice, As a result, what I said was just an itch in my boots, and you couldn't listen to it at all, and the guide finally appeared to the end it is today. ”

"Let's talk about Sun Zhongmou next, in fact, Sun Zhongmou is a master, in some ways even stronger than his brother Sun Bofu, Sun Bofu's defects he has at all, he can recognize people and use people, so many celebrities in Jiangdong are willing to serve him, but he is too keen on power, too unwilling to be ordinary, such a character makes him covet Sun Bofu's power, especially when he disagrees with Sun Bofu's politics, this tendency is even stricter, so, driven by the desire for power, He was blinded by the desire for profit, and suddenly had a bad intention to assassinate Sun Bofu, but his heart is actually very fragile, so he is very sensitive to this matter, so he is jealous of you veterans, which is why I used it to drive a wedge between you. ”

Liu Qi shook his head, and suddenly said: "In fact, it is normal for him to be like this, but he made a fatal mistake, just transposing others to his own thinking problems, and the result is only a judgment based on his own character, he doesn't know how to think from the perspective of others themselves, for example, for Gongjin you, you are an honest and loyal person, as long as you become Sun Zhongmou's courtier, you will never have any different intentions." ”

"I didn't expect that he knew me best, this is really a terrible opponent, he knows me even better than myself, and the lord, no, that Sun Quan can't even catch up with the horse. Alas, I am really convinced to lose under such an opponent. Zhou Yu's eyes when he looked at Liu Qi were no longer surprised, he was simply admired, and only now did he know why he had repeatedly failed under this person, it turned out that he knew everything about himself.

At this time, Liu Qi continued: "And it is this flaw of his, the director lost trust in you at a critical moment, not only did not send troops to help, but instead withdrew your troops, Gong Jin is worthy of being a good general through the ages, still resisted the pressure and refused to send troops, but he took extraordinary measures and directly wrote a letter to the generals under your command to urge the transfer, which not only reduced your troops, but also greatly damaged your prestige, so that you had to take risks, resulting in the defeat of Hulin." Therefore, as a master, you must not only try to overcome your own weaknesses, not let your opponent catch a little mistake, but also believe in your subordinates, the so-called doubtful do not use, the user does not doubt, and no one is perfect, a person can not really do this, which requires constantly absorbing the correct opinions and suggestions of his subordinates. ”

"No. What the lord said today, the last will be remembered for the rest of his life, the last will know why the lord said this to the last general today, please rest assured, the last general is not a clay wood carving person, can understand the kindness of the lord, the last will be in the future to swear to serve the lord, assist the princes to create a great cause, support the community, stabilize the people, sweep away the heroes, and re-establish the world. ”

Until this moment, Zhou Yu finally said the word "lord" to Liu Qi, only the two of them know the deep meaning of these two words, this is a promise, and it also represents that Zhou Yu, a famous general through the ages, has returned to Liu Qi from now on.
