The Battle of Gangneung ended, and the pacification of Namgun was a foregone conclusion.

Although Cao Cao set up four lines of defense from Nanjun to Xiangyang before returning to the north, once Jiangling City was broken, the full favor who was in Linfang would definitely not think that he could resist the siege of tens of thousands of troops with a few thousand people, so he also evacuated Linfang.

After Zhou Yu captured Nanjun, while entering the city to settle the people, he sent Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, and Ling Tong to subdue the three counties of Linfu, Dangyang, and Jingyang in the north of Nanjun.

Then Zhou Yu lay down.

The reason is simple, the arrow wound recurred.

Zhang Xi didn't believe this, didn't he say that the arrow wound had healed, so Zhou Yu made a siege plan to conquer Jiangling City in one fell swoop.

Why do you lie down at this time?!

Could it be that Zhou Yu wanted to hide from the sky and the sea, deceive the thousands of men led by Zhang Xi and Zhang Fei, and then lead his army to the south suddenly, which is not good for Liu Bei at the mouth of the oil river? !

Therefore, as soon as Zhang Xi learned that Zhou Yu's arrow wound had recurred, he hurried to visit Zhou Yu's temporary mansion.

Now that Jiangling has been laid, Zhou Yu is naturally stationed in the city.

However, because Cao Ren burned down the treasury when he left, which affected the Jiangling Taishou Mansion, Zhou Yu temporarily borrowed the other courtyard of the family in the city as his office residence.

Coincidentally, the owner of this family is surnamed Pang, one of the four major families in Jingzhou.

The Pang family was extremely influential in Jingzhou, and nearly sixty percent of the officials under Liu Biao's account had received the favor of Pang Degong, or had listened to Pang Degong's lectures and treated them as disciples.

Therefore, even Cao Ren did not dare to attack the people of the Pang family in Jiangling City, and after Zhou Yu entered the city, he borrowed the Pang family's courtyard to live, which also meant the heart of the Jiangling family.

Zhang Xi went to meet Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu met Zhang Xi. in their own bedroom.

Zhou Yu is indeed sick in bed, but in addition to his complexion, his spirit is not bad, and he can even handle government affairs.

Zhang Xi later chatted with Zhou Yu and learned the cause of Zhou Yu's illness.

It was completely Zhou Yu's own work.

Zhou Yu's arrow wound had just healed and scabbed on the surface, and it had not completely healed, so Zhou Yu was in a hurry to make a plan to attack Jiangling.

During the one-month preparation period, Zhou Yu had to deal with military affairs and think about siege tactics, and he hardly slept for two hours a day.

During the siege period of more than ten days, Zhou Yu was even more clothed all over his body, sitting on the front line of command, and basically his armor did not leave his body.

Then, Zhou Yu's arrow wound recurred—tired.

But fortunately, it is not serious, that is, the wound is a little swollen, Zhou Yu said himself.

Zhou Yu also said that he would be able to recover after about ten days and a half of rest, and Zhang Xi chose to believe it.

After all, Zhou Yu's appearance doesn't look like he is lying, and if he wants to hide from the world, Zhou Yu should at least learn Sima Yi, even if he doesn't have a crooked mouth and nose, he has to pretend to be in a coma or something, so that he can be decent.

As a result, Zhou Yu still chatted with Zhang Xi with his spirits, and tried his best to talk about his symptoms, as if he was afraid that Zhang Xi would think he was seriously ill.

Therefore, Zhang Xi judged that Zhou Yu was indeed overworked when he was recovering from a serious illness, which caused the arrow wound to recur.

As for whether this arrow wound will kill Zhou Yu. Zhang Xi felt unlikely.

There are no poisonous arrows or poisonous arrows in these years, that is the rendering of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Wound infection seems to be possible or unlikely.

After all, according to historical records, Zhou Yu later died of illness in Baqiu, and it is still nearly a year away.

Very few wound infections last for a year, right?!

Well, even if there is such an example, the problem is that after Zhou Yu was hit by the arrow, he not only sat in Nanjun, but also actively prepared to attack Xichuan Liu Zhang. I did a lot of things in the middle, like a person who had nothing to do.

There are so many things that can be done in the face of wound infection, and then suddenly his condition worsens and he dies of illness. Doesn't seem realistic?!

Well. Probably, Zhang Xi doesn't study medicine anyway, so he doesn't know much about it.

Therefore, judging from the probability, Zhang Xi believes that the recurrence of Zhou Yu's arrow wound is real, but it is estimated that it will recover soon.

But whether Zhou Yu will turn his face and go south to use troops against Liu Bei at the mouth of the oil river, this Zhang Xi does not dare to guarantee it.

The first thing Zhang Xi did after returning to the camp was to write to Liu Bei to inform him of the current situation in Jiangling, and by the way, remind Liu Bei to prevent Zhou Yu from going south to attack Youjiangkou.

Although Zhou Yu doing this is equivalent to turning his face and betraying the covenant, as far as Zhang Xi's understanding of Zhou Yu is concerned, this product does not particularly value this covenant itself.

Especially when Zhou Yu defeated Cao Ren and took all the southern counties.

Even Zhang Xi doubted that Zhou Yu would be thinking about how to turn his face now, so it was always good to let Liu Bei be more vigilant.

After about ten days, Zhang Xi always paid attention to Zhou Yu's movements, and went to visit Zhou Yu's house every three or five days to see if Zhou Yu was still there.

The mouth of the oil river is backed by Wuling County, Liu Bei does not worry about reinforcements, with Xu Shu by Liu Bei's side, Zhang Xi is not worried about Zhou Yu sending Lingtong Lu Meng and others to attack Liu Bei.

What Zhang Xi was really worried about was that Zhou Yu used the excuse of recuperation, but in fact, he personally led the troops to attack, which was the most fatal.

But for more than ten days, Zhou Yu has indeed been recuperating in the Pang Mansion Courtyard and has not gone anywhere.

Even Ling Tong Lu Meng and the others have been staying in Jiangling City, and Zhang Xi can still see them from time to time.

Zhang Xi gradually put his mind at ease.

In mid-October, Zhou Yu suddenly summoned Zhang Xi again, and the purpose was to let him go to the mouth of the Youjiang River and invite Liu Bei to come to Jiangling City to discuss the division of Nanjun.

Aren't you planning to dance Bayu Dance?!

Zhang Xi immediately thought of this one, no way, the old version of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" TV series is really a classic.

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing to worry about, Guan Erye's mission to the North Road has ended, if Zhou Gongjin wants to dance the Bayu dance, it's a big deal to let Guan Erye accompany the lord on another trip.

Let this Zhou Gongjin also taste the power of the second master's murderous eyes.

Well. Well, a bit of.

It is very normal to distribute benefits after the war, Zhou Yu asked Liu Bei to discuss this matter, and Liu Bei had no reason to refuse.

Therefore, Zhang Xi took a carriage and ran to the mouth of the oil river to report to his father-in-law.

After Liu Bei heard Zhang Xi's intention, he immediately made a decision to leave Xu Shu to guard the mouth of the Youjiang River, and he followed Zhang Xi to Jiangling.

Yes, Liu Bei went to Jiangling alone like this, and he didn't even bring his own soldiers.

Although Zhang Xi admires Liu Bei's courage very much, as a subordinate, Zhang Xi still wants to persuade Liu Bei, is it a little careless? !

What if Zhou Zhouyu is really black-hearted and wants to attack the lord?!

If it really doesn't work, why don't we transfer the second master who just returned to Jiangxia and go with him?!

In this regard, Xu Shu said with a smile, "Why do you need General Guan?!" The three generals are in Jiangling, Wei Wenchang is also leading the army there, Yuan Chang is relieved, and the lord is worry-free. ”

Well. Well, the way here was too bumpy, probably turning my brain upside down.

Zhang Xi was ashamed for a while, and then led Liu Bei to set off.

The journey was also smooth, and after a few days of hard work, Liu Bei and Zhang Xi arrived at Jiangling City.

Wei Yan had already gotten the news, and led the army to be stationed outside the city and set up a camp, as Liu Bei's foothold, Zhang Fei was also at the gate of the camp early, waiting for the arrival of his eldest brother.

Liu Bei naturally entered the camp to rest, washed up a little, and then waited in the camp until Zhou Yu's arrival.

Zhang Xi reported the news of Liu Bei's arrival to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu immediately said that he would also take a bath and change clothes, and wait for tomorrow morning to personally go to the city gate to greet Liu Yuanjun.

When Zhou Yu saw Liu Bei, Liu Bei could sit in the camp and wait for Zhou Yu to enter the camp to meet him, but Liu Bei went to see Zhou Yu, so Zhou Yu had to go out of the city to greet him.

The reason is very simple, no matter how down-and-out Liu Bei is, he can be regarded as a monarch, and Zhou Yu is famous all over the world, and he is also a minister.

Zhou Yu's respect for Liu Bei is his respect for his own lord Sun Quan.

And officially, Zhou Yu has just been played by Sun Quan as a partial general, Nanjun is too guarded, and Liu Bei is a general of Zuo very early, and Yuzhou is pastoral.

The level is not in a grade.

Therefore, Zhou Yu sent Lü Meng as a leading envoy to Liu Bei's camp to invite, and he led his own troops to go out of the south gate to welcome Liu Bei's arrival.

After a set of exquisite etiquette, Zhou Yu and Liu Bei finally entered the city and sat down in the Pang family's courtyard.

"Jinyu is courageous, please invite the king to come, it is at the command of my lord, to fulfill the preface, and fulfill the covenant." Zhou Yu smiled and said to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei also smiled and responded, "General Sun is a believer, and I am deeply admired. The two families are in a good alliance to resist the Cao army, and the combination will benefit both sides, and the division will cause two harms, which is the proper meaning. It's just that now that the Cao thief has not been destroyed, the governor doesn't have to worry about such a trivial matter, and it is not too late to discuss this matter after we and other joint forces break through Xiangyang. ”

Why don't you say this kind of scene again, believe it or not, I really won't give it?!

Still break Xiangyang?!

If I fight Jiangling City, you dare to steal my four counties of Jingnan, and also send troops to the mouth of the oil river to threaten me on the back road, if I fight Xiangyang, can this southern county still be our Jiangdong?!

Zhou Yu's heart was quite resentful, but now

Zhou Yu adjusted his mentality, the smile on his face remained unchanged, and continued, "Alas, you are too humble. Xiang Sun has both a covenant and an order from my lord, and Yu should do what he is told. Come people, go to the map. ”

As soon as Zhou Yu greeted, someone immediately brought a roll of maps.

Zhou Yu took the map, walked to Liu Bei with a smile, wanted to put it down on Liu Bei's desk and open it, and showed Liu Bei which places were assigned to him and which places belonged to Jiangdong. Zhang Fei flashed and appeared.

Zhou Yu was stunned at the time, and Liu Bei was also stunned, not understanding what Zhang Fei was doing.

And Zhang Fei stared at Zhou Yu with big eyes for a long time before he said, "Don't bother with the governor, just let me come to the old Zhang!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Fei didn't wait for Zhou Yu's reaction, and snatched the map in Zhou Yu's hand.

This is nothing, Zhou Yu is at most Zhang Fei is rude by nature, does not understand etiquette, and does not have the same knowledge as him.

Zhou Gongjin is elegant.

Besides, Zhang Fei did a lot of help to Zhou Yu when he attacked Jiangling, and Zhou Yu still recognized Zhang Fei.

But Zhang Fei's next action made Zhou Yu a little embarrassed.

After Zhang Fei snatched the map, he did not unfold it in front of Liu Bei for the first time, but held the scroll of the map and carefully pinched it up and down several times.

Zhou Yu was immediately angry - what do you mean, when I am Jing Ke?!!
