Without Sima Yi¡¯s interference, Zhao Yun successfully sent Sun Shangxiang back to Yangzhou.
"My lord, you are fortunate to have lived up to your destiny!"
¡°It¡¯s hard work now, thank you for your hard work, Zilong.¡± Liu Xiao said with a smile.
Zhao Yun has reported everything that happened in Jingzhou, and Liu Ke is very satisfied.
Originally, Liu Ke just wanted Sun Ce to remain neutral. Unexpectedly, Zhao Yun was able to successfully win over Sun Ce and promote the alliance, which was indispensable.
As for the twists and turns in the middle, although it is important, the result is good, which means everything.
? Among them, luck is also a kind of strength.
"My lord, thanks to Ziming's help this time, otherwise life or death would be unpredictable." Zhao Yun lamented.
It was precisely because of Lu Meng's several correct judgments that they avoided the crisis.
"If you don't tell me, I will reward him." Liu Kedao.
"My lord, this matter is insignificant and there is no need to reward me." Lu Meng declined, even showing some fear.
Zhao Yun was very surprised. Is there any hidden secret in it?
"How about ten thousand books?"
Lu Meng immediately grimaced and accepted "happily".
Zhao Yun couldn't help laughing, this reward is generous enough.
"There is Yan Ruyu in the book, and there is a golden house of freedom in the book. Zi Ming, please do your best."
I know!
But can you please stop motivating me with your lord¡¯s words?
Lu Meng almost cried.
When will the days of studying come to an end?
"After reading these books, you will be a qualified general." Liu Kedao.
"My lord, please don't lie to me!"
"You have no joke."
"Okay!" Lu Meng suddenly became motivated.
"But I will test you. You don't need to recite it, but you have to remember the story inside." Liu Ke warned.
"No problem!" Lu Meng said confidently.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
According to the agreement, Liu Ke set out from Dongyang City and went upstream along the Yangtze River to participate in the alliance with Sun Ce.
This time Liu Ke brought two generals, Xu Chu and Dian Wei, to guard the left and right sides, while Chen Dao was responsible for coordinating and handling trivial matters.
Zhao Yun and Tai Shici each led five thousand cavalry and set off from the left and right banks respectively.
The Chishui Army was responsible for preparing ships, with twenty large ships carrying three thousand soldiers and horses.
Among them, there are three Liu Ke flagships, all decorated exactly the same to prevent sneak attacks.
Sun Ce encountered rebels in Jingzhou and was chased to the point of death.
Although Yangzhou is very safe, you must be careful.
These were Lu Su¡¯s original words, and Guo Jia, Jia Xu and others expressed their support.
"Such a battle is too fussy and wastes people and money!" Liu Ke sighed.
"My lord, you mobilize millions of people in one battle, but you don't feel sorry for the expense. Instead, you feel sorry for the escort." Zhuge Liang teased.
Guo Jia and other older generation counselors have all become old fools. They are too lazy to come to this kind of formal alliance.
Opportunities are left to young people.
Between Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang, everyone recommended Zhuge Liang.
Because Zhuge Liang is suave and handsome, he is a good young man.
As for Pang Tong, it would be better to work hard in the cabinet. Guo Jia was almost inseparable from Pang Tong, so naturally he was reluctant to let him join the alliance.
The location of this alliance is located on a river in the northwest of Lujiang County.
The so-called Jiangzhu is a small island in the middle of the river.
The Chishui Army has already stepped on the point and stationed a navy of 5,000 people.
In terms of defense, you are extremely cautious!
It seems that Sima Yi caused trouble and made everyone very nervous.
The main force of the Chishui Army is located in Dongzhou County, but the Yangtze River has always been the focus of defense, and there is always a force left.
Sun Ce's fleet went straight down the river and had arrived a long time ago, but was blocked by the Chishui Army and could not go up to Jiangzhu.
It was not until an hour later that Liu Ke arrived and disembarked from the boat to the tent that had been prepared for him, that the Chishui Army was allowed to leave.
There were not many people released. Apart from Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, there were only dozens of personal guards.
"The King of Dongyang is so scheming. People who don't know it think he is timid and afraid of getting into trouble!"
One of Sun Ce¡¯s personal guards said dissatisfied.
"I'm afraid King Dongyang will no longer be as brave as when he charged into battle. Time is not forgiving." Someone answered.
"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhou Yu scolded.
The expressions of the surrounding Chishui Army officers were not good.
"The King of Dongyang is someone I respect. You go back and get twenty military sticks." Sun Ce said coldly.
"Yes, lord!"
When the two came to the camp, Liu Ke came out to greet them.
"Bo Fu, long time no see, are you okay?"
"Thank you, King Dongyang, for your concern. Everything is fine."
Liu Ke led the people into the tent and seated the guests separately.
"To make a long story short, we have reached a basis for cooperation in this alliance. Now let's discuss the specific details, Bo Fu, what do you hope to get?"
Liu Ke has always been so direct.
Sun Ce did not reply, but gave Zhou Yu a wink.
Zhou Yu cupped his fists and said, "King Dongyang, before this, I dare to ask, what do I need from Yangzhou in this battle?"
"You can ask for whatever price you want for whatever you do. This is the result of discussions between Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.
"If you can, I hope you don't do anything."
"Huh? Why?"
Liu Ke paused for a moment and then said: "Because I am enough to defeat Cao Cao myself."
Hearing these confident words, both Zhou Yu and Sun Ce fell silent.
What Liu Ke said is the truth.
"If you send troops, Nanyang County will belong to you, as well as the Shangyong area. If you are willing, I can fight for you."
Speaking of Shangyong County, we have to ask a complicated question.
The first is its location, which is very important.
To the west of Shangyong County is Hanzhong County, to the northeast is Nanyang County where Zhangxiu occupies part of the area, and to the southeast is Xiangyang.
Of these three counties, one belongs to Liu Bei's power, one belongs to Cao Cao's power, and one belongs to Sun Ce's power.
It¡¯s complicated!
During the Zhang Lu period, Shangyong County did not exist. It was originally just a few counties under the jurisdiction of Hanzhong County until Cao Cao captured Hanzhong.
After Zhang Lu surrendered, Cao Cao discovered that Hanzhong County was not only important in location, but also very large in area.
So, Cao Cao took 5 counties from Hanzhong County to form Shangyong County, completely breaking away from Yizhou.
Cao Cao was also forced to have no choice, because most of Hanzhong County was occupied by Liu Bei, a villain, and the remaining counties could not be abandoned.
Liu Bei has always wanted to eat Shangyong County, but he has never dared to take action.
If Sun Ce takes Shangyong, he will undoubtedly offend Liu Bei.
But Shangyong is really important because it is closer to Xiangyang County.
With this place, Xiangyang's defense can be consolidated.
Zhou Yu is very thoughtful. Since Liu Ke only intends to win two counties for them, this war will not completely destroy Cao Cao.
"Can King Dongyang inform you of your strategic goals?"
¡°The land of one state.¡±
Liu Ke said it more conservatively, but at most he would hunt two states, Bingzhou and Yanzhou, and then proceed step by step to see how the battle goes.
If you have the chance, you can still knock on Sishui Pass and enter Luoyang. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
