When Sun Ce and Zhou Yu rushed back to Shucheng, Cheng Pu had already returned to the camp after defeat. Hundreds of bodies were piled up, and soldiers checked the identities of each one before registering them. Seeing this, Sun Ce was furious and walked into the camp, only to see Cheng Pu kneeling at the main gate with his hairpin draped hairpin, holding his sword above his head.

Sun Ce strode up, snatched the sword, and before he could swing it, he was stopped by Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zhu Zhi and others from all sides, and dissuaded: "Think twice about the young general!" ”

Zhou Yu asked Huang Gai in a low voice: "General Huang, how is the battle between the two sides?" ”

Huang Gai frowned, his face full of embarrassment: "Demou led the army to attack, killing and wounding more than 500 soldiers defending the city and 200 people, Lu Kang's three nephews rushed out of the city to fight for the people outside the city, and they were all beheaded by Demou. Seeing this, the defenders did not rout, but instead hated the enemy and risked their lives to resist our army, and in the end our army suffered heavy casualties and was defeated. ”

Sun Ce's mind was blank, he really didn't expect Cheng Pu to be so bold, his qi and blood surged up instantly, his muscles burst out, and he shouted: "Cheng Demou, you are guilty!" ”

I wanted to take advantage of Sun Ce's absence to storm and take Shucheng, but when he didn't succeed, Cheng Pu's eyes were cracked, his thin lips trembled, and he said loudly: "The big husband dares to act!" Cheng deserves to die to apologize! ”

Sun Ce saw that Cheng Pu was holding his neck and had no intention of repenting, so he couldn't help but say angrily: "What a good one to apologize for his sins with death!" If you know the law and break the law, it is even more of a crime! Come, take off his armor for me, tie it up and hang it at the gate of the camp, and whip me two hundred in public, and then detain him until he is sent down. ”

Huang Gai couldn't help but pleaded: "Young General, whipping two hundred is going to beat him to death!" ”

Sun Ce glanced at Huang Gai, didn't say anything more, and rushed towards the Chinese military tent angrily.

Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were ordered to step forward, Zhou Tai grabbed Cheng Pu's arm and twisted it backhand, Cheng Pu gritted his teeth, did not resist, let Jiang Qin take off his armor and battle robe, and then tied him up and escorted him out of the camp.

Zhou Yu was helpless, and said to Huang Gai: "General Huang, don't blame Bo Fu for being so angry, General Cheng's move is indeed too nonsense...... But in any case, if General Cheng dies, Bo Fu will definitely regret it...... Whether or not you can save his life now depends on you......"

Huang Gai thought for a moment, and immediately understood the deep meaning of Zhou Yu's words, he waved his hand and turned around to leave.

Zhou Yu didn't intend to let him go just like that, raised his hand to stop him, and asked, "Are the bodies of the three men of the Lu family still intact?" ”

Huang Gai shook his hand and said, "It's definitely not intact!" The sword has no eyes, so it's not bad if it's not too bad......"

Zhou Yu bowed his hand deeply: "I'm tired of General Huang, hurry up and buy three good coffins, Zhou is grateful!" ”

Huang Gai looked puzzled: "Buy a coffin?" Why is that? ”

"It's too late to explain in detail, whether General Cheng can save his life or not, and the future fate of the people of Shucheng are all tied to General Huang, and he has worked hard to ......."

Huang Gai saw Zhou Yu's solemn expression, didn't ask any more questions, nodded in response, and left quickly.

In the tent of the Chinese army, Sun Ce, who was furious, took out a silver spear halberd and strode out. happened to meet Zhou Yu who opened the curtain and entered, and seeing Sun Ce like this, Zhou Yu hurriedly stopped him: "Bo Fu, now is not the time to be impulsive......

"Impulsive?" Sun Ce shouted loudly, "You sent so many letters to Lu Kang before, and that old stubborn stubborn finally loosened two points, but was beaten back to his original form by this Cheng Demou battle!" Not to mention whether Shucheng can be captured as he wishes, General Qiao's side, how can I explain! ”

Zhou Yu dragged the silver spear in Sun Ce's hand with great effort, and said comfortingly: "I don't know if it's your life or General Cheng's life, this morning, General Qiao was recalled to Shouchun." ”

"What about the men and horses besieging the city?"

"General Qiao took 10,000 men, and the remaining 8,000 will help you besiege the city. Bo Fu, Lu Taishou can't give up lightly, I plan to go into the city in a while and look for ......"

"No", Sun Ce interrupted directly, "You enter Shucheng now, if the old man Lu Kang is angry with you, it will not be good for you......"

"Bo Fu, this city is of extraordinary significance to you and me...... In the name of returning the bodies of the Lu family, I will go into the city to ask to see Lu Kang, and with his temperament, he will not implicate me. ”

"Three men died in the Lu family, and no matter how generous he is, he will be angry. Even if he doesn't anger you, won't others either? Besides, if Lu Kang doesn't kill you, but takes you as a hostage, what should I do? Sun Ce said that he would not let Zhou Yu put his life in danger, but he knew that if today's events were misunderstood by Lu Kang and the people in the city, it would be more and more difficult to attack the city in the future, and he Sun Bofu would also be charged with indiscriminate killing of innocents and cruelty.

Zhou Yu had a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely firm and irrefutable: "Bo Fu, don't you know my temperament?" Even if you don't let me enter the city today, if I find an opportunity, I will definitely try my best to go into the city to find Lu Kang. ”

"You...... What if you go? Could it be that Lu Kang would believe that this matter was not instructed by me, but Cheng Pu made his own opinion? Gongjin, I know you're anxious, but what's the use of being anxious? After this incident, the internal and external situation of Shucheng is the same as fire and water, and there will be no room for turnaround. ”

At the Luyang station, Da Qiao was anxious, standing at the tent door and looking forward, but he didn't see anyone from the direction of the Lujiang River for a long time.

Xiao Qiao stepped forward and gently grabbed Da Qiao's arm: "Sister, are you waiting for news from Lujiang?" ”

"Yes, General Cheng stabbed such a big basket, Sun Lang will definitely be furious, how can I not worry......"

Xiao Qiao tilted his head and thought: "That General Cheng is the former minister of Sun Bofu's father, even if he stabs the basket, Sun Bofu will not kill him, right?" ”

Da Qiao was still standing, although it was early summer, he only felt chills all over his body: "Whether to kill General Cheng or not is not the key to this matter, the key is the gentle strategy that Sun Lang has always wanted to implement......"

"Sister, how old is Sun Bofu, who will be smooth sailing as soon as he comes out? Guan Zhong, a famous minister through the ages, has also been in prison, doesn't he also help Qi Huan Gong establish a hegemony? What's more, there is a Zhou Gongjin beside Sun Bofu, can Zhou Gongjin look at Sun Bofu and ignore it? ”

As Xiao Qiao said, Sun Ce is resolute, Zhou Yu is witty, and there seems to be no problem that cannot be solved, but she still feels empty in her heart and is very worried.

Seeing that Da Qiao was upset and couldn't listen to the words of others, Xiao Qiao turned back to the side of the case, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the chessboard on the couch, only to see a white disc fall in the hinterland of the black side. After she played by herself today, only Zhou Gongjin touched this chessboard. Xiao Qiao's eyes were angry, and he couldn't help but add a little admiration while being shocked.

And the trend of the Lujiang River, the situation of the Lujiang River, can it really change as quickly as this game of chess? Xiao Qiao Wan'er smiled, picked up the sunspots one by one, and threw them into the basket casually.
