The fifth year of Jian'an, June 8.

Zhang Hong visited Shicheng again, and Liu Ye came forward to meet him, this time, he would not give Zhang Hong any good looks.

"Why did the gentleman come to my stone city again?"

Liu Ye's indifferent tone and the playful sneer at the corner of his mouth made Zhang Hong frown deeply, and he could see that Liu Ye didn't seem to welcome him.

"Why did Ziyang ask knowingly?" Although he was very dissatisfied with Liu Ye's attitude, in order to make the negotiations go smoothly, Zhang Hong could only swallow his anger.

Liu Ye replied coldly: "If Mr. is here to discuss the matter of the strike with me Jinfan, I advise Mr. not to bother, because no matter what, it is impossible for me Jinfan to agree again!" ”

Zhang Hong's face changed, revealing impatience: "Ziyang, why is this so?" ”

"If Mr. thinks that the students are just intimidating, then Mr. is very wrong!" Liu Ye paused and said strongly, "In fact, my lord has already sent people back to Huainan to recruit troops, and I believe that within a month, my Jinfan will have 30,000 troops stationed in Shicheng one after another!" ”

A trace of panic flashed in Zhang Hong's eyes: "What do you mean?" ”

"If you don't know, sir, you can go to Moling to ask Zhou Gongjin and ask him who hurt me Jinfan in this attack on Moling!" Liu Ye said expressionlessly, "My lord and the governor are very angry, and they have already made up their minds to fight you Jiangdong to the death, so Mr. should go back earlier and let Sun Quan wash his neck, and wait for my lord to fetch it in person!" ”

Liu Ye said nothing, then he didn't pay attention to Zhang Hong, turned around and walked out of the door.

"Eh, Zi Yang......" At this time, Zhang Hong was really anxious, and hurriedly got up and chased out, but was stopped by several guards outside the door, "Sir, my military advisor has an order, and the villain is ordered to send Mr. out of the city!" ”

"This ......"

Zhang Hong's mood was simply terrible, and he was helpless. I could only leave Shicheng with full of grievances and doubts, and went to Moling as fast as I could.

Hearing that Zhang Hong was coming, Zhou Yu personally went out of the city to greet him: "East, how are the negotiations with Jinfan going?" ”

Zhang Hong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Wang Chong refuses to stop fighting. Now that he has sent someone back to Huainan to recruit troops, he plans to fight with us Jiangdong, Gong Jin, you have to prepare early! ”

Zhou Yu frowned slightly and said, "In the east, why did Jinfan's attitude change so quickly before and after?" ”

Zhang Hong wanted to speak and stopped whispering tentatively: "Gong Jin." You attacked Moling this time, but did you hurt which important person in Jinfan? ”

Zhou Yu was taken aback: "Could it be that Jinfan's change is related to this matter?" ”

Zhang Hong said: "Listen to that Liu Ziyang, this is indeed the case, and not only Wang Chong, even Gan Ning is very angry!" ”

Zhou Yu thought for a while, took a deep breath and said, "In this way, it may be because of Ren Jiang, right?" ”

"Ren Jiang?" When Zhang Hong heard this, he immediately understood, and said solemnly, "I heard that this Ren Jiang joined Jinfan when he was in Ba County. has a bad relationship with Wang Chong and Gan Ning, if Gong Jin hurts Ren Jiang, it may indeed make these two lose their minds! ”

"But I still don't believe that Wang Chong would be so reckless!" Zhou Yu pondered for a moment and said, "Wang Chong is a hero, and he will never abandon the overall situation because of a certain person, after all, Ren Jiang is not Gan Ning, and the importance of the former to Jinfan is simply negligible, so in my opinion, Wang Chong just wants to put pressure on us through Ren Jiang's serious injury!" ”

Zhang Hong said in disbelief: "Gongjin is sure? ”

Zhou Yu smiled: "What is the truth? If I expect it to be true, then Wang Chong will force us to return Moling before he is willing to continue negotiations with us! ”

Zhang Hong asked, "If that's the case, should I accede to their request?" ”

"Of course not!" Zhou Yu said decisively. "The east must stick to the bottom line of my Jiangdong, Moling is replaced by diving, if Jinfan refuses, then continue to drag!"

Zhang Hong said worriedly: "But the more it drags on, the more unfavorable the situation will be for us?" ”

Zhou Yu shook his head and sneered: "Not necessarily. First, Gong Miao is a battlefield general, Gan Ning may not be able to capture Yuhang with that rabble, and second, I will secretly transfer 10,000 troops to the south tonight, if Gan Ning can't capture Yuhang within three days, I will make his 20,000 army disappear! ”

Zhou Yu's guarantee shocked Zhang Hong's spirit, and he suddenly felt a lot more confident, and swore solemnly: "Gongjin rest assured, I think I know how to deal with it!" ”

That night, Zhou Yu dispatched troops in Moling, leaving Lu Fan to lead 8,000 soldiers to continue to guard Moling, while he took Ling Cao, Zhu Ran and other generals to lead 10,000 troops from the north gate of Moling, and then took Wu County and went south to Yuhang.

However, Zhou Yu's action did not hide from Jinfan's ears and eyes, Wang Chong, who learned the news, immediately sent someone south to inform Gan Ning, asking him to be careful of the sneak attack of Zhou Yu's army, Wang Chong believed that as long as Gan Ning was on guard, with the help of Lu Su, it would not be easy for Zhou Yu to defeat them, and according to the news from Xie Xuan's side, during this time, he had secretly persuaded the four Shanyin families to join Jinfan, and the time was basically ripe, and it was time for this last killing chess to play a role.

The fifth year of Jian'an, June 9.

Zhang Hong, who rested in Moling for the night, came to Shicheng again non-stop.

As Zhou Yu expected, Liu Ye's attitude was indeed more relaxed than yesterday, saying that as long as Jiangdong was willing to take the initiative to give up Moling, this peace talk would not be impossible to continue.

Zhang Hong naturally refused sternly, but Zhou Yu's encouragement gave him enough strength to have a fierce quarrel, and the negotiation ended unhappily when neither side refused to back down.

After listening to Liu Ye's report, Wang Chong sneered at the corner of his mouth, he really wanted to see how long Jiangdong's persistence could last.

At this time, someone suddenly came to report, saying that Ren Jiang had finally woken up from his slumber, Wang Chong was so excited that he immediately put down the work at hand and rushed over.

However, when Wang Chong arrived at Ren Jiang's residence, the latter had fallen into a deep sleep again.

Wang Chong's eyes were about to split, he grabbed the doctor's collar, and asked coldly, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" ”

The healer's frightened legs trembled, and he said with a frightened face: "Will ...... Don't worry, General Ren hasn't eaten for many days, his body is weak, and when he just woke up, he only drank a little gruel and fell asleep again, but this is just normal sleep, in fact, it is no big deal! ”

Hearing this, Wang Chong let out a long breath, his heart hanging in the air finally fell, and the killing intent on his face gradually converged, and he patted the healer on the shoulder and said, "Take good care of my brother, if he can recover, he will be rewarded!" ”

The doctor hurriedly kowtowed: "Thank you general, thank you general!" ”

Wang Chong looked at Ren Jiang on the bed with a haggard face and white lips, sighed softly, and didn't dare to disturb anymore at the moment, and quietly exited the room...... (To be continued.) )
