There are gentlemen in the Three Kingdoms

Han Dang's tears fell down in big drops.

Seeing Han Dang's performance like this, Zhou Yu's heart fell to the bottom at that time.

"My lord, he and the second son all died in Jinling City! The soldiers of the three armies were almost wiped out, and not a single one was left alive."

Zhou Yu rolled his eyes and passed out.

"Gongjin, Gongjin!"

Cheng Pu and Han Dang stepped forward in a hurry, pinching and shaking desperately, but they couldn't wake Zhou Yu up.

In desperation, Cheng Pu could only take a deep breath, exhausted all his strength, and fanned Zhou Yu's cheek with a big ear scraper.

"Snapped!"

This slap was effective. Although it left a red mark on Zhou Yu's face, it also woke Zhou Yu up at the same time.

Zhou Yu, who woke up, began to cry at that moment.

"Bofu, how could Bofu be like this? A small city of Jinling actually let you die? Bofu!"

Cheng Pu gritted his teeth and said, "Gongjin, we must avenge the Lord!"

Zhou Yu looked at Han Dang while rubbing the sore cheeks that had been slapped just now, and said, "It's fine for Bofu to attack Jinling City and die. Why was Zhongmou also killed? Jinling people are too vicious!"

Han Dangchang sighed, and said: "According to the scouts, the people of Jinling released the second son when they first negotiated with Bofu, but later the lord returned to attack Jinling City. The second son was implicated and died on the battlefield, so it can't be done." Said that Jinling people broke their promises."

"Okay, okay!" Zhou Yu gritted his teeth and said, "What a Jinling city, what a pottery merchant, you really are all tricks. I, Zhou Yu, will one day destroy the whole family surnamed Tao and burn Jinling City to the ground. Wait for me!"

Cheng Pu's eyes turned red, and he said, "Gongjin, what should we do next?"

Zhou Yu pondered for a long while, then said: "We can't go back to Lujiang. We have lost all our soldiers and horses. Even if we go back, there will be no place for us to stand on. Moreover, the potter's scheming will definitely take the opportunity to conquer Lujiang. We have no choice but to leave." Vote for other forces."

Cheng Pu said, "Then who should we vote for?"

Zhou Yu raised his head, thought for a while, finally stood up slowly, and turned his face to the west.

The news of Nanchang City soon reached the potters.

Knowing that the crisis in Nanchang City had also been lifted, the pottery merchant finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He immediately summoned all the generals in Pengcheng to discuss the strategy of sending troops out of the Central Plains.

"Everyone, Lu Su, Kong Ming, and Zhong Da really lived up to everyone's expectations. They not only disintegrated Sun Ce's offensive, but also destroyed the Sun family's power. Now that the Lujiang River is empty, I have written a letter to Lu Su to unite with the county soldiers from the surrounding counties of Jinling City. , Take Lujiang County back."

Chen Deng smiled and said: "If Lujiang County is in our hands again, the land of Jianghuai and Jiangdong will all be owned by our army."

The potter nodded and said: "Jianghuai has been settled, the next step is to plot the Central Plains. Now Cao Cao is far away in Guanzhong to quell the chaos between Zhang Lu and Li Ru. The war is already stalemate. Now is a good time for us to quickly pacify the Central Plains."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

The potter turned to look at Guo Jia and said, "How's the situation on Erbao's side?"

Guo Jia said with a smile: "Er Bao stayed in Mangdang Mountain for several months, and he couldn't stand the hard life long ago. Now he has prepared troops and horses according to our requirements. He will return to Xuchang when the time comes."

The pottery merchant nodded: "But I don't know if I can succeed. After all, there are Xun Yu and Cao Ren. These two people are not easy to deal with."

When Guo Jia heard this, he felt a little uneasy.

The opponent is that Xun Yu, but if he is a little negligent, he will catch him.

After careful consideration, Guo Jia said: "I don't think this matter is particularly difficult. According to Guo's understanding of Xun Yu, Xun Yu should not let Er Bao return to Xuchang directly, but let them station nearby. .”

As soon as Xu Rong was obedient, he hurriedly said: "If we don't station in Xuchang City, wouldn't our strategy be useless?"

Guo Jia laughed and said, "It's not necessarily true. Xun Yu would like to let them be stationed in other counties to observe and make arrangements in the future."

The potter stood up and paced back and forth all around. Suddenly he stopped and said to Guo Jia: "Brother Feng Xiao, there are no people present who know Xun Yu better than you. If you want to occupy the Central Plains, I must rely on you."

Guo Jia nodded, and said with rare seriousness: "This matter is on my shoulders."

Xuchang City.

Xun Yu sat on the spot, frowning, looking at the letter sent by Er Bao, stroking his beard, thinking carefully.

When I was young, I saw Cao Ren striding towards Xun Yu, and said to Xun Yu, "Mr. Ruo, did you call me?"

Xun Yu handed the bamboo slips in his hand to Cao Ren, and said, "General Zixiao, take a look, this is a letter written to me by Bao Zhong and Bao Tao."

Cao Ren took Xun Yu's letter, read it carefully, frowned, and said, "Didn't these two Baos escape from the battlefield before and went to Mangdang Mountain to fall into the grass and become bandits? Why are you still licking your face and wanting to come back? It's ridiculous!"

Xun Yu took a deep breath and said: "This matter can't be so absolute, let's find a surrounding military county in Yuzhou and let them station troops. The rest of the matter will be discussed later."

Chapter 778 Soldiers Out of the Central Plains

Mount Mangdang, the border.

Bao Zhong and Bao Tao sat where they were, with sad faces.

"Xun Yu asked us to station in Xiangli City, and we are not allowed to return to Xuchang City for the time being. If Prime Minister Tao knows about this, God knows whether he will blame us for affecting his previous plan." Bao Tao said bitterly.

Bao Zhong's expression was no better than Bao Tao's.

"Originally, you and my brother took refuge under Prime Minister Tao's command, and wanted to use this to rise and contribute to the rise of the Bao family. I never thought that Prime Minister Tao would blame you and me for this."

Bao Tao was slightly puzzled and said, "I guess not? I don't think Prime Minister Tao seems to be the kind of person with a small belly."

Bao Zhong smiled wryly and said: "What you said is arbitrarily arbitrary. Back then, I was not a small-hearted person when I saw Cao Cao, but what happened? In the end, Ban still didn't forgive you and me for our mistakes."

Bao Tao thumped the table heavily with his fists, and said: "Could it be possible that our Bao family has been so devastated, no matter how hard it is to turn around!"

Just when the two of them were lamenting, someone rushed to report: "Two generals, Prime Minister Tao secretly sent an envoy to see the general."

Er Bao hurriedly stood up: "Come in, please!"

When I was young, I saw a gentleman strolling into the handsome tent.

Seeing the scholar, Er Bao hurriedly said, "May I ask Mr. Gao's name?"

The nashi chuckled, "I'm next to Guo Jia."

"Guo Jia?"

The two were stunned when they heard the words.

Who is Guo Jia?

That is the number one confidant under the command of the pottery merchant!
