Chapter Ninety-Five: Unloading the Armor and Three Watches
Chapter Ninety-Five: Removing the Armor
After Gan Ning welcomed Sun Quan into Huiji City, he arranged for everyone to rest and eat, and after waiting for the processing, Gan Ning entered the Taishou Mansion of Huiji County, and wrote a letter to Li Zhe on the table, which probably said: "Sun Quanxie's family has surrendered, tomorrow I will send someone to escort Sun Quan and his family to Jiujiang, and our army will expand by 20,000 troops, and now it is 120,000, but it is not yet possible to fight head-to-head, so we must wait for the arrival of the lord's army before officially starting the war."
After Gan Ning wrote the letter, he handed the letter to the messenger, and went directly to meet Sun Quan's mother, the old lady! Why did you go to see her?
How to fight, the old lady is Li Zhe's mother-in-law. This man can't be offended!
Early the next morning, Gan Ning sent people to escort Sun Quan and thousands of his family members to Jiujiang.
Lu Su's spy said: "The Governor of Dadu, Jianye and Wu County were captured by Meng Shu's 200,000 troops, and the lord led 20,000 troops and his family members to the direction of Huiji County."
After Lu Su heard the news, Lu Su stood still at a loss, and then there was a trace of tears in his eyes, but he couldn't hold back it.
Tai Shi Ci said on the side of Lu Su: "Dadu Governor, this time my Jiangdong is really defeated by Li Zhe."
Lu Su was silent in the camp for a long time, he kept thinking about whether there was still a little chance for Sun Quan to turn over, but he didn't come up with a way to think about it for an hour.
Lu Su is still like that, he doesn't speak, he sits in a daze in a handsome position!
Cao Cao also learned that Meng had captured Jianye. Cao Cao angrily threw the wine glass in his hand on the ground. Furious: "Idiot, Meng Shu is a fool, how can he capture Jianye now, attack Jianye at this time, Sun Quan will surrender, and the 50,000 troops in the hands of Jiujiang Lusu will surrender to Li Zhe, and his Meng Shu's brain is a pig"
Cao Cao lost his temper in the main hall, and frightened the maids on the side, and Xun Yu said: "Prime Minister, if there is no such fool, how can you create heroes, history is like this, for the sake of greed, those who get carried away are those who create others"
Cao Cao listened to Xun Yu's words and said to Xun Yu: "Wen Ruo, I can't help it, fortunately I have you by my side."
Xun Yu said: "Prime Minister, we can't change the situation in Jiangdong now, but our first problem is how to completely destroy Yuan Shao."
Cao Cao said: "The Yan Liangwen ugly in Yuan Shao's hands gives me a headache, and there are 50,000 defenders in Jizhou, Cao Ren was defeated by Pang Tong, and the number of troops we can move is only 100,000 horses, so our army is not very optimistic."
Xun Yu said: "Yes, Yan Liangwen is ugly, and Xuzhou has Lu Bu, but they are all first-class generals, and they can't be sloppy."
On this day, Ma Tan and Chen Gong came to the south gate of Xuzhou City, and the two sent Xu You out of the city.
On the way, Xu You thought, this Ma Yan's talent is so deep, how deep is Pang Tong and Kong Ming's talent, when they meet Jingzhou, they will definitely see the demeanor of the two.
After Xu You left, Chen Gong chatted with Ma Jian for a while and then left.
Chen Gong went to Liu Bei's place, and saw that Liu Bei was discussing something with Emperor Ya, Chen Gong said politely: "Lord, Emperor Ya, Xu You has already left Xuzhou, he said that he was going back to offer incense to his parents, but I think he may have gone to Jingzhou Li Zhe." ”
Liu Bei said: "What about Ma Tan? ”
Chen Gong said: "Ma Jian is still in Xuzhou, I think Ma Jian is really fleeing, otherwise it would be impossible to come out with his two elder brothers." ”
"What's more, I have repeatedly asked him to be an official, but he has politely refused, it seems that he has not come out of his shadow yet"
Liu Bei said: "Such a talented person, in my Xuzhou, but I don't need it, it's a waste of talent, why don't I ask him to go out of the mountain, I think, I will definitely be able to succeed"
And the Taoist Emperor Yadi, who was sitting next to Liu Bei, said: "If this person wants to invite him as an official, he will definitely test him, I always feel that this person is not reliable."
Chen Gong said: "These days, I sent someone to follow, Ma Jian has no movement except for lectures in the Taoist school, and his life is very dull and very down-to-earth. I don't see anything else about him."
The Taoist said: "What you see is what he wants you to see, and we now want to see what he doesn't want us to see."
Chen Gong said: "Then I will send more people to monitor his every move for twelve hours a day."
The next day, in the evening, Xu You rode to the boundary of Jingzhou and ran directly to Nanyang County, where he saw a large army camped in front of him.
Xu You dismounted and walked to the camp, and said to the guards at the door: "Can you go in and report that Xu You is here, and there is something important to discuss with the military advisor Pang Tong?"
The guard saw that this person spoke politely, so he agreed to Xu You and said, "Wait here, I'll report it."
Pang Tong was reading in the tent, and the guards ran into the big tent and said: "Military advisor, there is a person named Xu Yu outside the camp gate who said that he has something to discuss with you."
When Pang Tong heard Xu Yu's name, he immediately said, "Please let him in."
Xu You followed the guidance of the guards and entered Pang Tong's tent, Xu You looked at the handsome position, Damn, why is this person so ugly, it makes people a little scared when they look at it.
Pang Tong saw Xu You's surprised expression, and then said: "Ziyuan, don't panic, why are you here?"
After Xu You calmed down for a while, he told everything in Xuzhou, and then said to Pang Tong: "I have the idea of voting for the king of Chu in Jingzhou, I wonder if Jingzhou can accommodate me?" ”
Pang Tongyi was happy and said with a smile: "Brother Ziyuan is polite, with the assistance of a talented person like you, our Jingzhou is like a tiger." Bring me a letter to the Lord and see what position the Lord has given you."
Xu You said: "The letter will trouble Shi Yuan Duo Mei Yan, during the Qingming Festival, I am going to sweep the tomb of my parents, and the pillar incense is on, my hometown is not far from Li Zheli, and I will come back tomorrow evening to see you again."
Pang Tong nodded and said: "Ziyuan can go with confidence, when I come back tomorrow, I have almost received a reply from the lord, and I can also give an explanation for Brother Ziyuan."
Lu Su did a day and a night in his handsome position, did not eat or drink, did not close his eyes, Tai Shici reminded Lu Su many times, let him pay attention to his body, eat some food, and sleep! But Lu Su ignored no one, and kept thinking about whether there would be a chance, but in the end, Lu Su also gave up, he really couldn't think of it!
Lu Su stood up suddenly, Tai Shi Ci was very surprised when he saw it, and then Lu Su said the first sentence in the past two days, which made Tai Shi Ci even more surprised!
Lu Su said: "Come on, remove the armor"
The guards were stunned when they heard Lu Su say to remove the armor, Lu Su had never taken off the armor since he came to Jiujiang, but today he suddenly said that he wanted to remove the armor. The guards didn't understand why?
Tai Shici knew that this showed that Lu Su was also desperate, and he couldn't figure out how to make Sun Quan turn over again, so this removal of the armor represented the defeat of Jiangdong!
