Troubled Times Begin Chapter 247 Marshal of the Navy Army
Zhou Yu smiled faintly when he heard this, and said: "General Lu said that you are a famous general in the world, and your offensive in Jingzhou has been frustrated, how can a nobody like me, who has been defeated in your hands many times, have the ability to defeat them." ”
"Why should you be humble, the previous defeats were just your bad luck, I know that your ability to command troops is rare in the world, and the water war is unparalleled in the world, if you are willing to help me, I will immediately hand over all the armies in Jiangdong to you for training, and when you attack Jingzhou, you are the commander of the three armies, and even I myself listen to your orders!" Lu An's eyes were like torches, and he pleaded again.
Hearing that Lu An actually promised such a high position, Zhou Yu's expression was a little moved, and he asked, "General Lu believes in me like this?" Aren't you afraid that I will attack you when I take power? Know that I was your enemy before! ”
"I believe in your ability, and I believe in your character! And! Lu An said and smiled slightly: "There is no general under me who can support the army and make trouble." ”
"That's right!" Listening to Lu An's extremely conceited tone, Zhou Yu nodded involuntarily, after the new policy, Lu An's prestige was echoed in the entire Jiangdong and Jingnan, if any general with military power wanted to lead the troops to make a rebellion, I was afraid that he would be directly hacked to death on the spot by the angry soldiers.
"This time I came, it was with 100% sincerity, the man is alive, when he brings a three-foot sword to the world, I believe that with your amazing talent Zhou Yu, I don't want to be wiped out by everyone like this." Lu An looked at Zhou Yu with expectant eyes, waiting for the other party's reply.
Zhou Yu closed his eyes at this time, his heart was already at war between heaven and man, Lu An not only hindered the hegemony of his best friend Sun Ce, but also thwarted him many times, from this point of view, he could not serve the other party no matter what.
But then again, there is no emotion to talk about in the hegemony, after the other party won, he didn't embarrass them too much, and gave them enough courtesy and respect, such a frank and benevolent like a gentleman is undoubtedly very charismatic, and as the other party said, if there is a big chaos today, it is a good time to establish a meritorious career, how can he Zhou Gongjin be willing to do nothing for the rest of his life, not to mention that the other party directly opened such a high bargaining chip.
"Gongjin, you might as well imagine that as long as you go out of the mountain this time, with your ability, you can definitely help me defeat the Jingzhou Sailor in one fell swoop, and when it is played, the name of Zhou Gongjin will spread all over the world and be praised by the world!" Lu An tempted.
"General Lu, what you said is really straightforward, Yu really can't refuse!" Zhou Yu smiled bitterly, he couldn't refuse this temptation after all, in this life, after all, he still can't escape the word fame and fortune, then Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong defeated Lu Xuantong with the Jingzhou army and became famous, so he Zhou Gongjin defeated the Jingzhou army with the Jiangdong army in turn, and he can still shock the world in a battle.
"Then Gong Jin agreed, I know that you, Zhou Yu, will not be willing to drown your talent like this after all!" Lu An looked happy and laughed heartily. Zhou Yu's ability in water warfare, no one dares to call the first, if there is Zhou Yu's help, then his shortcomings in water warfare will also be made up, and will become his strongest link, with water warfare alone, I am afraid that the Jiangdong Army will immediately surpass the Jingzhou Navy Division to become the first in the world.
"I don't know when General Lu wants me to report on my work!" made the final decision, Zhou Yu also let go of everything, and asked directly.
"If you want, you can do it tomorrow, and I will announce to all the generals and lieutenants in Jiangdong that during this period of time, all the troops in Jiangdong will be under your control!" Lu An said without hesitation.
"Na Yu will go to the state pastor's mansion tomorrow to report!" Zhou Yu is also refreshing, and is ready to take office the next day.
"I'll be waiting for you tomorrow!" Lu An patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder, and then said goodbye, when he left the Zhou Mansion, he felt that the bones in his body were a few taels lighter, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, you just wait, next time, I, Lu An, will definitely finish you.
Seeing Lu An leave, the smile on Zhou Yu's face gradually dissipated, and then suddenly became complicated, hesitating again and again, after all, he sighed, it was better to go to Sun Mansion and talk to Bo Fu, otherwise I would be too sorry for my brother.
、、、、
"Lu Xuantong personally came to invite you to come out, did you agree?"
Sure enough, when Zhou Yu informed Sun Ce of all this, it caused Sun Ce's surprise, but then Sun Ce reacted again and said with a smile: "This is a good thing, if your talent is wiped out like this, it will be a pity, what position does Lu Xuantong promise you?" ”
"He asked me to help him train all the armies in Jiangdong, and promised to make me the commander of the three armies in the next attack on Jingzhou, and command all the soldiers and horses of the whole army!" Zhou Yu said softly. I have to say that the other party's respect for him is also one of the conditions that impress him.
"Directly in control of the army? Lu Xuantong is really full of trust in you! Sun Ce was a little stunned when he heard this, this Lu Xuantong was really confident to the extreme, and he actually dared to directly promote a former enemy general to the highest level, this person's courage is really rare in the world.
"I'm sorry, Bo Fu, Lu Xuantong has achieved perfection in both sincerity and courtesy, I really can't refuse him." Zhou Yu looked at Sun Ce with a little apology, the two of them made a grand wish to make a contribution, but with the cruelty of reality, the pride of the two back then had already disappeared, but he Zhou Yu was really unwilling to live a mediocre life like this, and the eldest husband wanted to be vigorous regardless of life or death.
"What do you think Gong Jin, you can be a leader, I will only be happy for you, the original matter has passed, speaking of which Lu Xuantong is indeed a rare master in the world, almost all the qualities that a lord should have, and my Sun Ce is also thanks to the mercy of his subordinates to save the family, you follow him, you will definitely shine!" Sun Ce smiled indifferently. For Zhou Yu to agree to the other party's request, he did not have the slightest blame in his heart, since he had been defeated, then he should not delay his brother's future, Zhou Yu can accompany him until now, it is already benevolent and righteous.
"Bo Fu, why don't you join me, our two brothers join forces again, presumably with Lu Xuantong's strength, not only will he not say anything, but he will be very happy." Looking at Sun Ce's smiling face, Zhou Yu somehow, his eyes were a little sour, and he blurted out a sentence.
"Forget it, I'm really tired, since I can't compete for hegemony, then I'll let it go completely, for the time being, I just want to recuperate for a while!" Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and rejected Zhou Yu's proposal.
"Hey!" Zhou Yu's expression darkened, his best friend, is there really not a day to fight side by side again!
"Gong Jin, speaking of Shi, I want to trouble you with one thing!" Sun Ce seemed to remember something at this time, and suddenly spoke.
"You're still polite to me? What to say directly! Zhou Yu shook off the negative emotions and said with a smile.
"Zhongmou has grown up, I can't let him stay at home like me, I think he has grown up okay, the civil and military are okay, you can take him with you in the future, see if you can arrange a position for him!" Sun Ce said with some hesitation. With his tough character, it is really difficult for him to say such things, but people have to live in reality after all, he doesn't want to be a leader, but he can't drag down his younger brother Sun Quan, fortunately, Zhou Yu is his best friend in life and death, and there is no need to be so polite between the two.
"Okay, I'll go with Zhongmou to see Lu Xuantong tomorrow, presumably Lu Xuantong won't care about that." Zhou Yu nodded and said.
He knew the difficulties of the Sun family, with the Sun family's previous identity as the enemy leader of the world with Lu An, if Sun Ce, as a parent, refused to submit to Lu Xuantong, it would be very embarrassing for the rest of the Sun family to want to be outstanding, but with Sun Ce's strength, how could he ask Lu Xuantong for this matter, so he wanted to ask him at this time.
"Thanks, Gongjin!" Sun Ce smiled faintly, but there was an indescribable silence in his expression, the Sun family, a descendant of the Soldier Saint, after the death of his father Sun Jian, not only did not carry it forward in his hands, but fell to this point, this kind of bitterness is really not enough for outsiders.
The two chatted for a while, Zhou Yu got up and said goodbye, leaving Sun Ce alone sitting in the courtyard, he looked up at the sky, it was still blue, somehow, Sun Ce suddenly had a feeling of being very small in his heart, a few years have passed, things are wrong, he Sun Ce has also fallen to this day, but this world is still that side, even if it is another thousand years later, it will always be the same.
"Big brother, what are you thinking?" The sound of two voices interrupted Sun Ce's confused state, but it was his younger brother Sun Quan and sister Sun Shangxiang who came.
"It's nothing, I just think time flies so fast!" Sun Ce waved his hand.
"Big brother, I just heard from the porter that Brother Gongjin has been here, right?" Sun Quan didn't care about Sun Ce's casual tone, since the defeat, the eldest brother has often been a little distracted, and the family is used to it.
"Well, he's just gone!" Sun Ce glanced at his younger brother as he spoke, and said, "Tomorrow, you and Gong Jin will go to see Lu Xuantong together, with Gong Jin to help you, I believe Lu Xuantong will arrange a good position for you." ”
"What?" Sun Quan was a little surprised, not understanding what Sun Ce meant.
"Lu Xuantong went to Gong Jin today, and wanted Gong Jin to train tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Jiangdong for him, and then named him the marshal of the navy, Gong Jin agreed, and he will go to the post tomorrow, I told Gong Jin to let him take you tomorrow!" Sun Ce said lightly.
"Lu Xuantong asked Brother Gongjin to help him take charge of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses? When the time comes, will the marshal of the naval army be sealed? Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang, the two siblings, glanced at each other, both of them were a little incredible. What does Lu Xuantong think, he doesn't know the relationship between Brother Gongjin and his family, and he dares to directly hand over such a large military power, not afraid that Brother Gongjin will rebel against him!
