As for Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, the two of them can better understand Liu Qi's thoughts, and they also have plans.

Although he was in the middle of Longzhong, Zhuge Liang felt that Jiangdong was not easy to fight.

But this is not the same as it used to be.

Tens of thousands of Jiangdong's naval troops were lost, and years of accumulation came to naught, and it was when they were at their weakest. If you don't take Jiangdong at this moment, when will you wait?

Wouldn't that increase casualties?

Pang Tong also understood the importance of Jiangdong's geography.

If Jiangdong is not taken, Jingzhou will always be unstable.

If you attack Jingzhou from Yizhou, there are many natural dangers and obstacles, and it can be said that it is difficult to move an inch.

And Jiangdong is connected to Jingzhou.

Now part of the land of Changsha has been invaded by Jiangdong.

wants to stabilize Liu Qi's general trend in the south.

Solving Sun Quan's forces is an imperative matter.

I didn't go on much.

Liu Qi looked at the captives and asked with a little curiosity:

"Who are these Jiangdong soldiers headed by?"

Gan Ning hurriedly said:

"The lord of Qiqi, his lord will be named Lu Meng."

In fact, the current Lu Meng is already a little famous, but he is a veritable reckless general.

"Lu Meng?"

This name surprised Liu Qi a little.

Unexpectedly, Gan Ning directly arrested Lu Meng back.

In a few years, this person will become famous all over the world, and a wave of white-clothed people will cross the river, so that Guan Yunchang has nothing to do.

But now, he has become a prisoner.

Then Liu Qi said:

"It's okay, then I'll go and see this Lu Meng later!"

For Gan Ning, Lu Meng is actually nothing, after all, this person's strength is far inferior to him.

But Liu Qi wanted to see it, and he was showing the way in front.

Came to Lu Meng.

Lu Meng was extremely embarrassed at the moment, he frowned and looked at the person, but he didn't say a word and kept silent.

Liu Qi smiled:

"You are Lu Meng? Sun Zhongmou sent you to attack Huainan in order to force Cao Cao to retreat? ”

When Lu Meng heard this, he said in righteous words: . .

"You are Liu Qi, the prince of Jingzhou? Now that you know, why don't you let us go back?

This time is to save Jingzhou, but instead of being grateful, you humiliate us so much. ”

Listening to Lu Meng's words, Liu Qi shrugged his shoulders and said:

"Why do you need to meddle in this matter, this son has already sent soldiers and horses, and what Sun Zhongmou is thinking, you know better than this son, and you don't have to say anything.

Now that you are in the hands of this son, it is impossible to leave. How can you say that you are also a brave general, if you are allowed to go back, won't it be asking for trouble for Jingzhou?

If you are willing to surrender, this son can untie the bondage. ”

Lu Meng still wants to talk a few words, if he can fool Liu Qi for a wave, maybe he can really be released back to Jiangdong.

But what Liu Qi said at this moment cut off his hope.

It's impossible to want to go.

Hearing Liu Qi's words of persuasion, Lu Meng frowned, but he didn't say a word, how could he surrender?

Did he really regard Lu Meng as a betrayer?

Seeing Lu Meng's expression firm, he looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water, and Liu Qi didn't bother to care about him.

Although it is important to recruit talent.

But just one Lu Meng is not worth his fight.

As for the enmity with Guan Yu in the future, it does not exist in this world. Liu Qi is not ready to do anything to him, since he is unwilling to surrender, then stay well!

In Jingzhou Prison, there are still many positions.

I saw the many captives here.

Liu Qilang said:

"Military advisor, Shiyuan, this son is going to let a few people go back, inform Sun Quan of this matter, and persuade Jiangdong by the way, I don't know what the two of you think?"

If you want to persuade Jiangdong to surrender, it is naturally impossible.

Liu Qi is just a scene.

However, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong had no objections.

With the current situation in Jiangdong, people must be sent to keep an eye on Jingzhou's moves, and it is impossible to make a surprise attack.

Instead of playing tricks behind their backs

, it's better to have a wave of openness.

Anyway, the opportunity has already been given to you, who can blame you for not surrendering?

After the decision is made.

Liu Qi let go of more than a dozen captives.

It's just a little pawn, and it won't affect the general trend.

Everyone returned to Xiangyang City.

Liu Qi set up a banquet to entertain Gan Ning.

Then let Gan Ning go back and rectify the Jiangxia soldiers and horses.

It won't be long before the army will be used against Koto.

Gan Ning has been very positive.

He was too aggrieved in the first half of his life, although he had the ability, he never had the opportunity to make a contribution.

Now that the opportunity is in front of you, how can you miss it?

Liu Qi sent grain and grass to Jiangxia.

In addition to some soldiers and horses defending Jingbei, the next main task is to be in the land of Jiangdong.

Koto at the moment.

After Sun Quan sent Lü Meng to attack Huainan County.

imagined that Jingzhou and Cao Cao would both lose, and then he would be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman.

However, the reality is always cruel.

Sun Quan suddenly received the news.

Although Lü Meng carried soldiers and horses that day, all of them had been covered by Gan Ning, but there were still soldiers elsewhere.

They have found out about the situation.

It is the first time to send the news.

"What, Lu Ziming was captured by the Jiangxia Navy?"

Sun Quan was taken aback, he was distraught, and immediately sent someone to inform Zhou Yu that there was something important to discuss.

After a while, Zhou Yu and others gathered here.

They don't know what's going on yet.

Zhou Yu was slightly puzzled:

"I don't know what the lord summoned us today, is it because Lu Ziming has news?"

Sun Quan took a deep breath and said loudly:

"The lonely side just got the news that Cao Cao had withdrawn and left, but Lu Ziming fell into the hands of Jingzhou."

At this moment, even Zhou Yu was taken aback.

Obviously, I didn't expect the two to be related.

Then Zhou Yu reacted, and he said in disbelief:

"Could it be that Jingzhou also sent people to Huainan?"

Hearing this, Sun Quan nodded, felt a little headache, and said helplessly:

"Lu Ziming and his subordinates have all been captured. What should be the current situation? ”

The incident was unexpected.

Even Zhou Yu didn't know what to say.

Right now.

Someone hurried to report it.

"Lord Qiqi, General Lu Meng's command is back."

Several people's eyes were all looking at Sun Quan.

Didn't you say it's all gone?

But that's not the point.

The captives, who were released by Liu Qi, were sent to the border between Jingzhou and Eastern Wu, and a small boat was given for them to float over.

Come inside the council chamber.

As soon as several people saw Sun Quan, they shouted:

"My lord, something is wrong, General Lu Meng was captured by Jingzhou."

Hearing this, everyone was silent.

The sergeant noticed that the situation was unusual, and hurriedly said:

"The lowly people also fell into the hands of Jingzhou.

This time, it was Liu Qi, the prince of Jingzhou, who let us come back and let us tell the lord a word. ”

Sun Quan raised his eyebrows, and said in a displeased mood:

"What?"

Speaking of this, several soldiers hesitated.

But seeing Sun Quan's cold expression.

They still trembled and said:

"Liu Qi said that the lord should surrender as soon as possible, lest the Jingzhou army come to the city, and it will be too late to regret it."
