On this day, Zhou Yu asked Kong Ming to discuss the matter. Kong Ming went to the military tent in the middle of the line, and after the ceremony, Zhou Yu sighed: "Recently, there have been people from above who have come in the clouds or by strange beasts, but according to the information obtained, all the major sects have sent masters to help, and now Cao Cao has the full help of the sect and the demon gate, so what can I do?"

"What do I mean by this week?" Kong Ming secretly pondered, and said with a frown: "There are many great Confucians in Jiangdong, and even the powerful Langya Sect and Buddhism were forced to leave, even if there are more monks under Cao Cao, they can't take advantage of it. ”

"Actually, I don't have many Confucians in Eastern Wu, I have died a lot in the confrontation with the sect over the years, but now there are less than ten people, these Confucians are generally older, their physical condition is very poor, and they basically can't go to the battlefield, Zhang Zhao, who is younger and in better health, is involved in the logistics of the rear, and he can't come, Gu Yong's injuries in the past few years have not been good, and he can only deal with the people who cultivate below the Heavenly Immortals. And I'm the manager, but it's impossible to get out lightly.

Alas, it is also my Jiangdong who suppressed the monks too much a few years ago, and now there are no monks who can fight against the masters of Cao Jun. ”

Zhuge Liang said: "There are not many powerful monks under my lord's command!"

Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "Kong Ming can deceive others with these words, how can he deceive me?"

As far as I know, Uncle Liu Huang studied art in the Yin-Yang Sect in his early years, and has been supported by the Yin-Yang Sect all these years. Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and others are also a few masters in the world, and they are all able to fight against immortal-level cultivators. And the Lumen Academy where Mr. Kong Ming was born is full of talents, with more than a dozen masters such as Mr. Shui Jing, Pang Degong and Kong Ming, and Mr. Kong Ming, your father-in-law is also a famous Confucian.

Now that the Sun and Liu families have joined forces to fight against Cao, how can we only contribute as a family, but you are watching the excitement from the sidelines?"

Zhuge Liang smiled bitterly and said: "What the governor said is the truth, but the governor only knows one and doesn't know the other.

Although my lord was born in the Yin-Yang Sect, and he has also received a lot of help from the Yin-Yang Sect over the years, the relationship with the Yin-Yang Sect is not so good, and their help to my Lord is purposeful. Now our lord is trapped in Jiangxia, and the situation is worrying. It's too late for the Yin-Yang Sect to draw a clear line with my master. How can I still help my Lord. I even got the news that the Yin-Yang Sect saw that Cao Cao was about to be unified, and had begun to show kindness to Cao Cao, maybe in a few days we would be able to see the masters of the Yin-Yang Sect among the monks who fought on the opposite side.

Although General Zhao Zilong and General Zhang Fei showed extremely strong strength in Changbanpo and shocked the world, the price paid was also extremely huge, and General Zhao Zilong couldn't even get out of bed now. General Zhang Fei couldn't even speak, and he was extremely weak, but General Guan Yu was fine, but my lord always needs a master to take charge!

As for the Lumen Academy that the governor said, he didn't take refuge in my lord, and now most people such as Xu Shu and Shi Guangyuan are on Cao Cao's side. The academy is also under Cao Cao's rule, the governor can help them count into Cao Cao's camp, Liang can't invite them to help, although my father-in-law is a great Confucian, but his health is not good, and if he can ask for it, he would have been invited out to serve under my lord, so why wait until now to ask.

Although Liang is not a master, he is the only one under my lord's command who can get it. It's here now. If the governor wants me to fight, Liang will never shirk it. However, after Liang Liang's strength goes out, I am afraid that not only will he not do anything, but it will hurt the morale of the army. ”

"Since you have no soldiers, no generals, no territory, no people, no wealth, and nothing to come out, then what will he use to unite with me in Dongwu, and the alliance between Sun and Liu is not a joke? ”

After hearing this, Zhuge Liang smiled dumbly: "I have always thought that the governor is the hero of the world, how can I say such ignorant words now?"

Our lord has gathered the hope of the whole world, and he is trapped only for a moment. Although there are few soldiers in our lord now, there are hundreds of thousands of people who have gone to righteousness, and there are hundreds of thousands of people in Jiangxia. Zhang Fei, Zhao Yun and other generals are just recuperating from their injuries, maybe they will be able to recover from their injuries one day, and they have killed Cao Cao's courage, as long as you Jiangdong and us unite, even if you know that they are injured, Cao Cao still has to take care of them and guard against them, so my lord and General Sun's alliance, even if they can't directly confront, they can play a role in containing Cao Cao.

The most important thing is that Cao Cao coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, Jiangdong lost the righteousness first against him, Jiangdong was weaker than Cao Cao, and it was only a matter of time before he lost the righteousness and perished, but it was different from the union with my lord, my lord is a relative of the Han family, and the uncle who is personally recognized by the saint today has an edict to beg for thieves in his hands, and my lord is against Cao Cao but is to rebel, and the Sun family unites with us, and first has the name of righteousness. Even if my lord produces only one person, this reputation alone is worth hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

The union of Sun and Liu is a matter of two benefits, although they are both princes, but my lord's reputation is higher than that of General Sun, and the official title is also higher than that of General Sun, and Cao Cao also has a crusade against the Yellow Turban Army and a crusade against Lu Bu. But Zhou Dudu can't say such words anymore and hurt our hearts. ”

At this time, it was reported that Sun Quan had sent the book. Zhou Yu hurriedly called in. The messenger presented Sun Quan's letter, and Zhou Yu opened it in front of Zhuge Liang, only to see half of it and immediately became angry, let alone read it, and tore the book to pieces and threw it on the ground.

Zhuge Liang asked, "Why is the governor angry?"

Zhou Yu glared at Zhuge Liang and said: "In the rear sea, General Gan Ning encountered the rebel Ma Fan and lost three of my most Haode Jinghai ships in Eastern Wu, and now the rebel Ma Fan is heading towards the hinterland of my Jiangdong." There are Cao thieves on the outside, and there are rebels on the inside, disturbing the rear, so they are naïve and want to kill my Jiangdong. ”

Zhuge Liang asked: "Except for the three warships, what are the losses of the rest of the soldiers?

Zhou Yu sighed: "According to the letter, this Ma Fan doesn't seem to want to kill people, so the soldiers are fine, and the guilt of losing three warships in defeat was also borne by Lu Xun and Lu Boyan, and General Gan Ning is fine." However, these three warships don't know how many resources it took me Jiangdong to build, Lu Boyan is a rare talent in Jiangdong, now because his life is worried at this time, and now the front line is understaffed, and the traitor Ma Fan behind him can't think of who to use to govern, and he is very depressed in his heart,"

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Haha, the governor is really a fan of the authorities, it's too late to be happy about this great thing, why do you need to be sad?"

Zhou Yu said in surprise: "How is it a good thing?"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "I have met Gan Ning once, but he is a few generals in the world, especially in the water battle can not beat him much, his warships and soldiers are rare elites in the world, how can such an elite be put in the rear to waste?

But now that this has happened, he can't continue to be a general in Jinghai anymore, just by giving him the honor of being guilty and meritorious to the front line against Cao Cao, I think there should be no resistance within Jiangdong, and you can also let Lu Xun come to the front line to make meritorious service on the grounds that the front line is important, so there are two more masters.

And that Ma Fan I have heard a lot of things, it seems that he has killed a lot of big faction monks, although there are too many rumors, we don't know what his real strength is, but I think that he can survive after killing so many people from major factions, his strength should not be weak, since he didn't hurt anyone, it proves that he doesn't want to be an enemy of Jiangdong, and maybe he can be pulled into the cause of fighting against Cao Cao, so that there will be one more master of the monks in the Cao army. And behind this Ma Fan is the entire sect, and the masters such as the Holy Mother of Wudang and the Holy Mother of the Turtle Spirit have a direct connection with him, and when they pull Ma Fan, they may be able to invite them out, so that the monks in the Cao army will not have to worry. ”

Zhou Yu thought for a while and said, "We don't seem to have anything to impress this Ma Fan, is this Ma Fan willing to come?"

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Since the time of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors in ancient times, the two sects have always been opponents, to deal with the teachings must be intercepted, to deal with the interception of the teachings must be asked to explain the teachings, this is already a tradition, especially after the war of the gods, the two sects have become mortal enemies, and now almost all the major sects of the sect have masters to serve in the Cao camp.

Ma Fan's foundation is in Hanzhong, and now his shili has just improved, if the Shun and Liu families are defeated by Cao Cao, Cao Cao will definitely be able to dominate the world soon, and his career will be greatly hit by then. Therefore, he definitely doesn't want the world to be peaceful so quickly, and he doesn't want Cao Cao, who is supported by the teachings, to defeat the Sun-Liu coalition army and dominate the world.

Now such a big war, rare to see in hundreds of years, is really a great opportunity for monks to accumulate luck and external strength, this Ma Fan is on the territory of Jiangdong, encountering such a prosperous era, if he wants to go further in the future, he will definitely not miss it, but he is already destined to join Cao Ying, and this is the third. ”

Hearing Zhuge Liang say this, Zhou Yu suddenly clapped his hands excitedly, and said with a smile: "Haha, these three points are enough."

Once this Ma Fan joins our army, then not only will we have more monks who can fight against that side, but we will also make Cao Cao think that Zhang Lu is also allied with us, and he will definitely spare energy to guard against Zhang Lu in the rear, which is indeed a great thing. ”

But smiling and smiling, Zhou Yu suddenly frowned and said: "Although this is a good thing, but Ma Fan killed General Tai Shici, and now he has destroyed our three ships, to accept him, General Sun Quan and Jiangdong Wenwu may not agree, and although we analyze that Ma Fan has a reason to join us, we don't know what he thinks, so we must be cautious when we lobby him." ”

Zhuge Liang said with a smile: "Such a trivial matter must not be difficult for the governor, if there is nothing to do, Liang will leave." (To be continued.) )
