The Three Kingdoms started from fooling Jia Xu

Chapter 153 Send troops, Zhang Liao wants to return

"My lord, don't worry too much!"

Zhuge Liang stepped forward with his fists clasped, and said with a light smile, "Cao Cao wants to occupy several counties in Xuzhou, how could he abandon Xuzhou to attack Nanyang? If Lu Bu counterattacks like this, he will suffer heavy losses."

"Therefore, Liang dares to assert that Xia Houyuan's army must be suspicious soldiers, and they are meant to echo Sun Ce, so there is no need for my lord to worry too much."

"However, my lord's intention this time is in the Lujiang River. My lord can use his plan and send his generals to the two places in a mighty way, so as to confuse Sun Ce."

"Lead another group of elites to go out day and night, sneak to Lujiang River, and act according to the original plan."

Zhang Xiu nodded, and said heartily: "Kong Ming is right."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiu glanced at it, and immediately shouted: "Huang Zhong listens to the order, you are good at fighting, and for me, General Jing Xiang, you will lead [-] troops to the defense line north of Nanyang and guard Yecheng."

"The last general takes orders." Huang Zhong responded.

"Xu Shu listens to the order, and you lead [-] sailors to station in Chaisang to prevent Sun Ce's army from making border crossings." Zhang Xiu looked at Xu Shu and said again.

"Promise!" Xu Shu agreed.

"Zhuge Liang, Zhao Yun, listen to the order. Zhuge Liang will join the army and Zhao Yun will lead the army with eight thousand soldiers. Follow me to Lujiang." Zhang Xiu said with serious eyes.

"No!" The two clasped their fists together.

"Wenhe, after I leave, you will be in full control of Jingzhou's affairs, and the military defense in the city will be handed over to Wei Yan." Zhang Xiu glanced at him and said in a deep voice.

"No!" The two nodded in response.

Wei Yan was both helpless and excited, helpless and unable to make contributions, but excited Zhang Xiu actually let him stay in Jingxiang, this trust is very human.

"Shi Tao, I will leave the logistics of the three armies to you to be in charge of the control, and there must be no mistakes."

"No!" Shi Tao nodded in response.

"The rest of the generals will act with the leaders of the various ministries." Zhang Xiu looked at the generals of the various ministries and said solemnly.

"No!" Everyone shouted.

In the hall, Zhang Liao pursed his lips. He looked at Zhang Xiu with some hesitation.During this period of time, Zhang Xiu treated him in every possible way, at least much better than Lu Bu.

But his master, Lu Bu, was still alive after all, and he had no choice but to stay in Jingzhou before, but now that Lu Lingqi has returned safely, he should go back in Chuchun.

Thinking of this, Zhang Liao gritted his teeth, came out and clasped his fists and said, "General Zhang, now that you and my lord have become good friends of Qin and Jin, the last general should return to Xuzhou to help the lord fight Cao Cao."

"Return to Xuzhou?" Zhang Xiu couldn't help but tense, and looked at Zhang Liao with burning eyes. During this time, he gave Zhang Liao all his love, so he still wants to leave.

"Wen Yuan, how do I treat you?"

Zhang Xiu's eyes were bright, and he said solemnly.

"The general treated me magnanimously, kindly, and meticulously. But my lord is still in Xuzhou, how can Liao beg for glory against the lord." Zhang Liao's eyes flashed with struggle but he was firm, and he clasped his fists.

"Lv Bu and I are in-laws, and his daughter is supposed to marry me, so how can we go against the Lord and ask for glory?"

"What's more, if you stay in Jingzhou, when Lu Bu is trapped in the future, you can still lead the army to help, but if you go back to Xuzhou, how many people can you kill with your own strength?"

Zhang Xiu stared at Zhang Liao closely and said in a deep voice.

Zhang Liao's face was extremely troubled, he knew that Zhang Xiu wanted to keep him, but Lu Bu was still there, he couldn't stay, he could not help clasping his fists and said sonorously: "General's kindness, Liao Xin accepts it."

"But when my lord is in peril, how can Liao abandon him? I hope the general will allow him."

"Huh," Zhang Xiu took a deep breath with a dignified expression.

"Wen Yuan, Sun Ce of Jiangdong has superb martial arts skills, is unstoppable, and is known as the little overlord.

And Wen Yuan is brave and brave, he is a brave general.In this way, this time to attack Lujiang, you help me, and I will let you go after Sun Ce is defeated, how about it? "Zhang Xiu raised her eyebrows and said in a deep voice.

Zhang Liao looked at Zhang Xiu's fiery eyes, he really cared about him, hesitated for a while, cupped his fists and said: "Thanks to the general's love, Liao is willing to help the general defeat the enemy and leave."

"Okay, with Wen Yuan's help, Sun Ce is no better than an ant." Zhang Xiu shouted heartily, and also saw the envy of all the generals in the hall. If he can be loved by Zhang Xiu, why worry about being rich and famous.

Zhang Liao's heart couldn't help throbbing, he looked up at Zhang Xiu, and couldn't help clenching his fists tightly. He was actually a little moved, and had the urge to die.

But let's talk about this later, if Lu Bu is annihilated by Cao Cao, he is still alive and may come to defect.

"Okay, gentlemen, let's prepare the army for war." Zhang Xiu waved and shouted.

This battle is related to the situation between him and Sun Ce.If he wins, Sun Ce will be on the defensive. On the contrary, if Sun Ce takes Lujiang and regains Chaisang, it will be even more difficult for him to attack Yangzhou.

"No!" All the generals responded with trembling expressions.

Fighting wars means that they can gain military exploits again. Military exploits are equal to money and status.

Watching the generals leave, Zhang Xiu thought deeply, and went straight back to the mansion. He had to explain to his wife and daughter at home, after all, the expedition might take a long time.

In the same year, February.

Jiujiang County, outside Shouchun City.

On the horse, Sun Ce looked at the broken Shouchun, he was quite emotional, and said heartily: "Gong Jin, I think I was still working under Yuan Shu's command back then."

"At that time, Yuan Shu had nearly [-] troops, and Runan, Yangzhou and other places all rushed to respond first, but now it has only been a few years, and Yuan Shu is already dead!"

Zhou Yu smiled lightly, and said heartily, "Yuan Shu has no virtue, and he was killed in Yu's expectation, but I didn't expect him to vomit blood and die so early, what a pity."

"What a pity?" Sun Ce raised his eyebrows and asked.

"If Yuan Shu died a year later, then Bofu wouldn't have to rush northward. All the ministries in Yangzhou can raise their troops, so Yangzhou will be more stable."

"Now I, Jiangdong Erlang, have been fighting for years, and I am very tired. I only hope that after this trip, I can take some time to recuperate after taking Lujiang." Zhou Yu said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he galloped towards him.

The knight got off his horse, held up the document and said anxiously, "My lord, there is an urgent message from Jingzhou's secret agent."

Zhou Yu stretched out his hand to take it, looked at what was said in the letter, and couldn't help beaming with joy and said in a loud voice, "Bofu, I'm so happy."

"News came from Jingzhou's secret work that Zhang Xiu had sent Huang Zhong to lead an army of tens of thousands north to Yecheng half a month ago. At the same time, he ordered Xu Shu to supervise the post of governor and reinforce Chaisang. Zhang Xiu was fooled if he came to Zhang Xiu."

"The news is reliable?" Sun Ce asked happily.

"Don't worry, Bofu, these fine works are all from Xiangyang, and Zhang Xiu installed them most of the time before he captured Xiangyang." Zhou Yu said confidently.

"Haha, okay, Zhang Xiu actually sent Huang Zhong to the north, it seems like what Gong Jin said, Zhang Xiu has to defend, then our army should also attack Lujiang."

Sun Ce said happily.

Seeing Zhou Yu nodding, Sun Ce immediately shouted: "Come here, fly to Lujiang immediately, tell Yu Fan, let him bring gold and silver to worship Liu Xun, and act according to plan."

"No!" The sentry rider got on his horse and walked away.

Seeing that Sun Tzuyu was worried, Zhou Yu couldn't help but said, "Is Bo Fu worried that Liu Xun won't send troops?"

"Well," Sun Ce nodded, and immediately said: "Liu Xun is greedy for money, I'm not worried, but he has Liu Ye to help him, I'm afraid."

"Don't worry, Bofu. Yu Gongcao has brought a lot of gold and silver this time. Even if Liu Ye objects, Liu Xun will not be able to hold on. Let's wait and see what happens."

Zhou Yu explained with a smile.
