Three Kingdoms: I choose to assist Sun Jian

Page 98

Danyang County, Wanling County, in the Sheriff's Mansion.

Just as Sun Jian was marching in a big way, the county guard's mansion at this time looked leisurely.

The meeting hall, which was supposed to be used for deliberations, is now sitting with two alchemists in Taoist robes.

The county guard, Zhou Xin, sat on the main seat and had a clear talk with the two alchemists.

The so-called chatting was the most popular activity among the scholars during the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

The content of the talk is also an unrealistic philosophical discussion.

But seeing that Zhou Xin is more than seven feet tall, dressed in soap and white shirt, with a few long beards under his jaw, he looks quite elegant.

There is a lot of philosophical thought in every word, obviously a lot of research on Huang Lao's way.

And at this moment, there was a burst of hurried footsteps outside the conference hall.

Afterwards, a scribe who looked somewhat similar to Zhou Xin rushed into the meeting hall angrily, and before Zhou Xin and the others could react, he said loudly:

"Brother!"

"What time is it now-!"

"Are you still in the mood to talk here?"

The scribe's name is Zhou Yu, and he is Zhou Xin's third brother.

Among the three brothers, apart from Zhou Ang who is currently serving under Yuan Shao's command, the eldest and third are all in Danyang County.

And this week, Zhou Yu had followed Cao Cao before, and after the appeal for Dong was over, he returned to Zhou Xin's side, and he was taking the post of Danyang chief bookkeeper.

"Third brother, how can you be so rude!"

Listening to Zhou Yu's words, Zhou Xin frowned and said:

"The two gentlemen are still here, what can't we talk about later?"

"Let's talk later?"

When Zhou Yu heard this, he stared straight in the eyes and said:

"Brother! Now that Sun Jian has defeated the Jinfan thief!"

"Forty thousand troops Chen Bing and Xiang'an water bank, don't you understand?"

"He is going south to Danyang!"

"Now is the time of life and death, and you are still talking here?"

After that, he glared at the two old Taoists:

"Go away, if you dare to say no, I will tell you to splatter your blood here today!"

Between the words, his right hand touched the long sword at his waist, as if the two veterans would immediately come to kill them if they didn't move.

Seeing this, the expressions of the two old Taoists changed, and they hurriedly said to Zhou Xin:

"Since Brother Xian has something to say, I'll leave first!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zhou Xin to reply, she immediately stood up and walked away in small steps outside the conference hall.

"you!"

Seeing her brother force her guests away, Zhou Xin stared and said:

"Do you know that I managed to invite these two gentlemen from Wu County!"

"How can you be so rude!"

"My brother!"

When Zhou Yu heard it, a look of shock appeared on his face and he said:

"Didn't you hear what my younger brother said just now?"

"Sun Jian is here!"

"He's on the bank of the Yangtze River and is about to go south to Danyang!!!"

"Why can't you hear it?"

"I know!"

Listening to Zhou Yu's words, Zhou Xin shook the hem of his clothes, and said with a look of indifference:

"He came, but it's not here yet!"

"As the saying goes, the husband and the way do not want miscellaneous, miscellaneous will be too much, too much will disturb, disturbing will cause worry, worry will not save."

"It's not too late to talk about it when he comes!"

After all, he looked at Zhou Yu and said:

"I said third brother, if you have time, you should also read more about Lao Zhuang's studies. Not only can you clear your mind and purify your mind, but you can also cultivate your body and mind!"

"Self-cultivation?"

Seeing that Zhou Xin still looked like this, Zhou Yu stared and said:

"Then according to my elder brother, what should my elder brother do if Sun Jian's soldiers are approaching the city?"

"I have a reason for that!"

Zhou Xin said calmly:

"Third brother, don't worry!"

"What reason do you have?"

Seeing this, Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xin and said coldly:

"I see brother, you want to run away without fighting, right or wrong!?"

"You! Oh!"

Seeing that the thoughts in her heart had been punctured, Zhou Xin immediately lamented:

"Third brother, it's not that you don't know that Sun Jian is good at fighting and has a hundred thousand soldiers under his command. He must have a perfect strategy when he comes here this time!"

"If our army fights with it, the soldiers under our command will suffer, and the people of Danyang will suffer."

"I think since he wants this Danyang, then give it to him!"

When Zhou Yu heard this, he was speechless and said:

"That's the case. When Sun Jian's silk letter came that day, I told you to go to Shouchun to report on your duties. Why didn't you go!"

But what he didn't expect was that when Zhou Xin heard this, he frowned and said:

"That Sun Jian fought everywhere, he was very brave and ruthless. I don't like his temperament, so I don't want to associate with him!"

"How can I say you are good!"

When Zhou Yu heard this, he laughed angrily.

His brother is a goddamn weirdo!

Because you don't like him, you refuse to associate with him. Now that he calls you, you still want to run away without a fight?

Immediately he said angrily:

"Brother, you want to escape, but now that Sun Jian is the governor of Yangzhou, if you escape, where can you escape?"

"Even if you go to Kuaiji, sooner or later you will be caught up by that Sun Jian!"

"If you don't like it at that time, if he is recruited, can you not?"

"Brother, if you don't answer, I'm afraid your life will be lost!"

Hearing this, Zhou Xin frowned and said:

"In your opinion, what should we do?"

Zhou Yu immediately said in a deep voice:

"In my opinion, since Sun Jian has already arrived, why don't we just do one thing and go to the bank of the Yangtze River to confront him!"

"Then took the opportunity to send a letter to Wujun Shengxian, asking him to send troops to rescue him!"

"As long as the defense line of the Yangtze River is kept, this Sun Jian will be prevented from going south!"

"Now that Sun Jian is stationed in Xiang'an, it is clear that he is going to enter the Spring Valley, so our army should send troops to the Spring Valley to rescue, and prevent this person from taking the opportunity to cross the river!"

Zhou Xin listened, shaking his head and laughing:

"If you do this, how sure are you!"

Seeing that Zhou Xin finally wanted to fight, Zhou Yu immediately said excitedly:

"Brother, if you follow this strategy, as long as the Spring Valley is not broken, I have a [-]% chance that Sun Jian will not be able to cross the river!"

Looking at his excited brother, Zhou Xin showed a wry smile and said:

"Then if the spring valley is broken, how sure are you?"

"What, the spring valley is broken?"

Zhou Yu frowned suddenly and said:

"If the spring valley is broken, it means that Sun Jian has already crossed the river!"

"Then what is there to be sure about!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly said:

"Brother! Stop talking nonsense, it's not too late!"

"We still have an army of [-] in our city. Before the enemy army crosses the river, please send an army of [-] to my younger brother. My younger brother will lead the army to Spring Valley!"

But before he finished speaking, Zhou Xin showed a smile uglier than crying and said:

"My dear brother, you don't need to go!"

He turned back and took out a silk letter from the desk and said:

"I received the battle report yesterday. After defeating Gan Ning, Sun Jian went south three days ago and divided his forces into two groups at the same time."

"Divided into cavalry all the way to the south, all the way to the north to the Spring Valley, and within half a day, they captured the Spring Valley City."

"Then divide up the troops again, all the way north to Wuhu, heading towards us all the way!"

As he spoke, he shook his head and smiled wryly again:

"Brother, isn't it because you don't want to resist?"

"It's Sun Jian who came too fast!"

"Within one day, one part of the city was broken, and the troops were divided into three groups to march into Danyang. How are you going to mobilize troops for your brother?"

When Zhou Yu heard this, his eyes widened, he didn't know what to say.

Co-author, am I in a hurry these days?

You have received the battle report a long time ago and you don't say it, are you still talking here?

If I don't come, is your elder brother planning to escape alone?

For a moment, he couldn't understand the way he looked at Zhou Xin.

Facing the strange eyes cast by Zhou Yu, Zhou Xin couldn't help but smile wryly:

"My dear brother, why don't you speak!"

But as soon as the words were finished, Zhou stood up abruptly and walked towards the layman on his own.

Zhou Xin was stunned when he saw it, and hurriedly said:

"Where are you going, brother?"

But as soon as he finished asking, Zhou Yu said without turning his head:

"Pack your bags! Go back to Kuaiji!
