Lu Yi saw Chen Gong kneeling down behind him, hurriedly turned around, greeted him with a smile, and helped Chen Gong up and said, "I can get the assistance of the public platform, I will go back tonight to add food!" ”

Chen Gongqiang laughed.

Lu Yi grabbed his hand and walked: "Although the banquet is over, now I am in a good mood and have an appetite again." Let's go, Gongtai, have a few drinks with me! ”

didn't take a few steps, and said to Shi Huan: "Leave the gold, silver and jewelry to the family of Gongtai." ”

Shi Huan responded and sent the gold, silver and jewelry to Chen Gong's family.

Chen Gong's family watched Chen Gong and Lu Yi leave, and they all smiled.

A false alarm.

They were really ready for Chen Gong to be killed, and they were also prepared to die.

Because they know that Chen Gong has an extremely stubborn personality.

If he says not to surrender, then not to surrender.

didn't expect that Chen Gong, who had always been stubborn, would change his mind.

Lu Yi returned to the palace and summoned Liu Ye, Lu Qiling, Shi Huan, Nangong Yan, Chen Deng, Chen Qi, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Song Qian and others to gather together.

During this period, Chen Deng took the initiative to apologize to Chen Gong.

Previously, the two were under Lu Bu, and Chen Deng had already communicated with Cao Cao, so he tried his best to divide Lu Bu's army, and made Chen Gong and Lu Bu suspicious of each other.

Chen Gong also hated Chen Deng and his father Chen Qi.

Now that they are all working under Lu Yi, although Chen Gong is uncomfortable, he can only let go of the mustard.

The group drank until late at night and rested directly in place.

Early the next morning, everyone woke up, and Lu Yi summoned other civil and military generals as well.

After that, he announced that he would lead his army to Pengcheng and Xiaopei the next day, accept the city, and incorporate Zhang Liao and Gao Shun and others.

In addition to this, he also announced a decision.

That is to appoint Zhao Yun as the commander of the Xuzhou cavalry, in charge of all the soldiers and horses in Xuzhou.

This decision directly shocked everyone.

Zhao Yun had just joined, and let him serve as an important official position like the captain of the Xuzhou cavalry, which was not in line with the previous etiquette system at all!

Zhao Yun himself was also shocked.

However, Lu Yi was extremely resolute this time and did not allow anyone to refute it.

Later, Lu Yi asked Liu Ye to write a letter to Zhang Zhao, who served as the chief historian of Wu County, asking him to step down from the post of chief historian and rush north to Xiapi to take over the post of pastor of Xuzhou.

The reason for this arrangement is that Zhang Zhao was originally a long history, and he had a very high status in Jiangdong, and he was the head of civil officials.

Now that he has Chen Deng, he wants to take Chen Deng, a civil and military all-rounder, with him and take charge of Jiangdong affairs, so Zhang Zhao's position will be challenged.

If Zhang Zhao is not transferred, I am afraid that Jiangdong Wenchen will make trouble.

Now, Zhang Zhao has been promoted from the position of a long history to the pastor of Xuzhou, and Zhang Zhao and Jiangdong Wenchen have nothing to say.

Moreover, Zhang Zhao was originally a native of Pengcheng, Xuzhou, and also had connections with various scholars in Xuzhou.

Let him serve as the pastor of Xuzhou, so that he doesn't have to worry about the major scholars riding donkeys to find horses.

In this way, Zhao Yun commanded the army in Xuzhou and would not worry about backstabbing.

With Zhao Yun's steadiness, Zhang Zhao united the major warrior clans in Xuzhou, even if Xuzhou was a place of four wars, there was no need to worry too much.

After that, Lu Yi appointed Chen Gong as the mastermind and concurrently served as the other driver.

Now, having received the military headquarters of Lu Bu and Xiapi, Lu Yi has an army of more than 30,000 under his account.

Let Cheng Pu hand over 25,000 of the 30,000 troops to Commander Zhao Yun, with Ling Cao, Zhou Tai, Song Xian and Hou Cheng as generals.

In the afternoon of the same day, the army was reorganized and handed over.

Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Song Qian and others had gloomy faces throughout the whole process.

However, it was handed over.

In the evening, Lu Yi called Cheng Pu to his room.

Cheng Pu still has a stinky face.

As the oldest general in Jiangdong, after three generations of monarchs, now, his position was robbed by a newcomer Zhao Yun, can he not be angry?

How could Lu Yi not know his thoughts?

Letting Cheng Pu sit down, Lu Yi smiled and said, "General Cheng, are you still angry?" ”

Cheng Pu hugged his fists and said coldly: "Don't dare!" You are the lord, what you say, what is natural. ”

Lu Yi poured Cheng Pu a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Actually, General Cheng misunderstood me!" ”

"General Cheng has gone through Sun Jian and Sun Ce, and now he is the lord of Jiangdong for three generations, three generations of veterans, and has made countless meritorious contributions. In today's Jiangdong, if you talk about merit, you say second, who dares to say first? ”

Cheng Pu felt better in his heart.

Lu Yi said: "Old General Cheng, that is the well-deserved head of my Jiangdong generals!" ”

Cheng Pu picked up the wine glass and said, "Don't dare!" It's still better than some people's hearts. ”

Lu Yi smiled: "I said that General Cheng misunderstood me, and General Cheng still seems to be unconvinced?" ”

"That's the case, I've been thinking recently, as soon as we take Xuzhou, Shouchun will be obtained by Cao Cao, and there is no hope for the time being, isn't this already completing my previous plan several years in advance? What should we do when we have completed the plan? ”

Cheng Pu said angrily: "Recuperate and prepare to deal with Jingzhou." ”

Lu Yi patted the case a few times: "That's right! That's it! ”

"You can recuperate and prepare to deal with Jingzhou, what is Jingzhou's army best at?"

Cheng Pu rolled his eyes and said, "Water war." ”

Lu Yi said with a smile: "In terms of water warfare, do we need training in Jiangdong?" ”

"Who can train it?"

"This is against Jingzhou! Jingzhou is our feud! ”

"Moreover, who can compare this credit for winning Jingzhou?"

Cheng Pu suddenly heard the voice-over, and looked at Lu Yi with some curiosity.

Lu Yi continued: "I think about it, this is to train the navy, then naturally the most stable person in Jiangdong is here!" Therefore, I think that I will set up a Zuo Du Governor, give him enough authority, let him command the Jiangdong Naval Army, train with all his might, and in the future, let him lead the whole army to attack Jingzhou. ”

"This is also what only the head of the military generals can do!"

"Otherwise, if I assign a military general at will, how can other military generals be convinced?"

Looking at Cheng Pu, Lu Yi smiled and said, "What do you say, General Cheng?" ”

"Who do you think we Jiangdong, who is this person?"

Cheng Pu hurriedly got up, his expression was a little cramped, and he wanted to say something, but his old face was flushed and he couldn't say it.

As a veteran, he is not afraid of death.

But it's too difficult to get him to take the initiative to admit his mistakes!

Lu Yi continued: "So, Old General Cheng, you have to wait for me to finish arranging before you get angry, right?" I am the lord, how can I forget the merits of my own account? You are the pillar of my Jiangdong, I don't rely on you, who do I rely on? ”

"As for Zhao Yun, he is indeed exceptional. However, you are the future governor of Zuodu, the head of my Jiangdong military generals, are you still worried that he will rob you of your credit? ”

"Anyone can be impatient, but you don't."

"As the head of the generals, you must have the heart of capacity."

"Any martial artist will come to the future, they will be your subordinates."

"Only when more outstanding subordinates come forward, the brighter the face of you, the head of the generals, will be, right?"

"Look at this time, Xu Sheng, Ling Cao, and Zhou Tai have done a good job."

"But I'll remember, it's you."

"You're the one who leads them and makes them stand out."

Cheng Pu took a deep breath and prostrate himself on the ground and said: "The heart of the old minister and the villain is disrespectful to the lord, damn it!" Please whip the old ministers! The old minister has no complaints! ”

Lu Yi picked up Cheng Pu and said with a smile: "Although you are the head of the generals, you are also a mortal, making a small mistake is human nature." This punishes you, and that's too harsh. Do a good job, my Zuo Dudu, my Jiangdong will rely on you to unite everyone in the future! ”

Cheng Pu raised his head and replied heavily.

The next morning, after Lu Yi finished breakfast, he led the army directly to Pengcheng.

Zhao Yun left Ling Cao and Zhou Tai to lead an army of 15,000 to defend Xiapi, and he took an army of 5,000 himself, followed by Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Song Qian, and Lu Yi, Chen Deng, Chen Gong, Lu Bu, Lu Qiling and others to Pengcheng.

In Pengcheng, Lu Bu's army was incorporated and stayed for a day, and everyone followed Lu Yi directly to Xiaopei.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun personally led the troops out of the city to greet them.

The two had already received a letter from Chen Gong, with Lu Bu's autograph.

The two of them have followed Lu Bu all the way to the south and the north all these years, and now, the whole army has surrendered, and the two of them are very unhappy.

But Lu Bu and everyone else surrendered, and they were all courteous, and the two didn't want to struggle too much.

Lu Yi met with Zhang Liao and Gao Shun, and let the two continue to lead the original army, but no longer only belonged to Lu Bu, but he Lu Yi.

Zhang Liao reported Xiaopei's situation to Lu Yi and others.

These days, Cao Cao was known as Xiahoudun's revenge and wanted to take Xuzhou.

But in reality, they only attacked the city twice.

Moreover, every time it is just a "superficial taste", and it does not attack.

Lu Yi knew that Cao Cao's so-called siege was just for himself.

Lu Yi believed that Cao Cao did not expect that he would take Xuzhou so quickly!

Patting Zhang Liao on the shoulder, Lu Yi smiled and said, "Open the city gate, let's have a 'meeting of the century' with Cao Sikong!" ”

Everyone was at a loss.

What is the "Meeting of the Century"?

Although Chen Deng didn't know what the "meeting of the century" was, he knew that Lu Yi had the heart to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao did let himself, the lord, lose the opportunity to snatch Shouchun.

However, taking Xuzhou without blood is definitely not what Cao Cao wants.

Chen Deng stepped forward with a smile and said to Lu Yi: "Lord, you might as well let General Cheng, Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun each lead their troops out, and let Cao Sikong see how powerful the lord's army is now." ”

Lu Yi nodded, turned to Cheng Pu, Zhao Yun and the others: "Rectify the army, as soon as the city gate is opened today, everyone will go out in an orderly manner and show Cao Sikong the military strength of my Jiangdong!" ”

Everyone responded in unison.

Lu Yi looked at Chen Deng, Chen Gong, Liu Ye, and Yan Xiang again: "You are my four great strategists, and you also want to meet Cao Sikong." ”

Chen Deng smiled: "Obey!" ”

Five miles outside the city of Xiaopei.

Cao Cao's army camp.

Cao Cao sat on his knees in the tent.

On his left sat Xun You, Guo Jia, Cheng Yu and other strategists.

On the right sat Liu Bei, Cao Ren, Cao Hong, Xu Huang and other generals.

At this time, Cao Cao was reading the letter.

It turned out that just now, Xiahou Yuan sent a battle report from Shouchun, and he had led the army to successfully capture Shouchun!

The defenders of Hefei Jiangdong have not yet reacted!

Xiahou Yuan was extremely proud in the letter and asked Cao Cao for credit.

After reading the letter, Cao Cao handed the letter to Xun You, smiled from ear to ear and said, "Miaocai lives up to my expectations!" This time I successfully won Shouchun, if I look at the loss of troops when Jiangdong takes Xuzhou, then I will go back to see the Son of Heaven, and I will be able to straighten my waist! ”

Guo Jiadao: "Since General Xiahou has taken Shouchun, let's not shrink back anymore." In the past few days, he has stepped up the siege of the city, taken Xiaopei, and made the appearance of snatching Pengcheng and even Xiapi. In this way, Jiangdong will get the news of our battle report, and will definitely hurry up the attack on Xiapi, in case we will take the lead. ”

Cao Cao laughed a few times, patted his thigh and said, "What Feng Xiao said is very true!" Princes, today we will rectify the soldiers and horses, and tomorrow night, we will break through Xiaopei and put pressure on Jiangdong! ”

Everyone responded in unison: "Oh! ”

Xiahou Yuan's letter reached Cao Hong, and Cao Hong laughed and said, "I really want to run to the new master of Jiangdong, that hairy boy named Lu Yi, and see his iron face!" As far as he is, he is also worthy of snatching the world with your eldest brother? ”

As soon as Cao Hong's words were finished, a soldier's eager voice sounded outside: "Report! Xiao Pei sent a messenger to send a letter! ”

Cao Cao said: "Let him in!" ”

A young scribe walked in, glanced around, and finally fell on Cao Cao's face, saluted, and said, "Guangling Chen Jiao, on the orders of my general, I have come to send a letter inviting you to meet outside the city this afternoon!" ”

After speaking, he respectfully handed over a letter.

Cao Hong took it and handed it to Cao Cao.

Cao Cao tore open the cover of the letter and took out a piece of stationery with a letter written to him by Zhang Liao, inviting him to meet outside Xiaopei City in the afternoon.

Cao Cao shook Zhang Liao's letter and said to everyone with a smile: "Xiao Peishou will invite me to meet outside the city in the afternoon. Ladies and gentlemen, put the army in order, and let Zhang Liao see our true strength this afternoon! ”

Everyone responded in unison.

Cao Cao looked at Chen Jiao again and said: "The two armies are fighting, sending envoys, and also sending such a young descendant, this Xuzhou and Jiangdong are both "boys" who have not dried up!" Tell your general, surrender quickly, otherwise, like Jiangdong, you will be defeated by my hands in the future. ”

The corners of Chen Jiao's mouth rose slightly: "Sikong is very right, I will go back and report to my general!" ”
