Peek at my diary, Cao Cao dominates the Three Kingdoms

Sun Quan knew that Sun Ce still had something to say to Da Qiao, so he endured his grief and walked out of the back room.

Mrs. Wu, Zhang Zhao and other important officials who were guarding outside saw Sun Ce holding the seal ribbon in his hand, and immediately understood Sun Ce's intentions.

When Da Qiao came in, Sun Ce sighed and said, "This is fate..."

"Husband, you can recover from your injuries at ease, and you will definitely recover." Da Qiao comforted her while wiping her tears.

Sun Ce smiled wryly and said, "I know my own situation... But, I have one more thing to confess to you."

"Speak, my concubine, listen."

"Shao'er is too young to take on the big responsibility, Jiangdong Foundation, I have entrusted Brother Quan..."

Da Qiao felt sad in her heart, but she also understood the severity, "The concubine follows her husband's wishes."

"I've wronged you..."

"Husband... woo woo woo..."

Sun Ce suddenly felt dizzy, and his eyes went black.

Knowing that his time was approaching, he immediately burst into tears: "I hate that Gongjin is not here, so I can't order him face to face! I hate that God didn't give me more time, so I can't avenge my father!"

After yelling a few times, Sun Ce died out of breath, and his eyes slowly closed.

"Husband!! Husband!!!" Da Qiao hoarsely called out to Sun Ce.

Mrs. Wu in the outer room suddenly collapsed to the ground.

Sun Ce tightly held the seal ribbon in his hand, closed his eyes tightly, and kept himself from crying.

At the same time, he swore in his heart over and over again: "Father, brother, I will definitely avenge your revenge! I will firmly guard Jiangdong's foundation!"

......

After Zhou Yu received the threatening letter, he rushed back to Wu County overnight.

But he was still one step too late, he failed to save Sun Ce, and even failed to see Sun Ce for the last time.

Looking at Sun Ce lying quietly in the coffin, Zhou Yu murmured to himself: "Bo Fu...we agreed to ride the world together..."

Chapter 193 Chen Liu is finally back...

The bewildered Liu Xun returned with [-] soldiers who were also bewildered.They just went out for a walk, why did the family and Jiangdong seem to be turned upside down?

In Wancheng, at the banquet specially set up for Liu Xun, Liu Ye told Liu Xun what happened in Lujiang.

"Hiss! What a vicious Sun Ce!" Liu Xun gasped, then held Liu Ye's hands tightly, and said gratefully, "If it wasn't for Zi Yang, I would have become a bereaved dog by now!"

Liu Ye showed a wry smile and said, "Now Sun Ce has been severely injured by us, but when he recovers, he will definitely retaliate. The eunuch failed to bring back the food and grass, and now we are consuming a lot of food and grass. The days to come... will be difficult." "

Liu Xun was a little ashamed when he heard this.

He brought out a full [-] army, and he couldn't even take down a small Shangliao City.The grain and grass in Haihun and other places had been emptied long ago, so he could only return in vain.

And if Liu Ye hadn't been vigilant, maybe he would have been sneak attacking his hometown by that shameless villain who betrayed the alliance...

Thinking of this, Liu Xun lost his mind and could only ask, "Brother Ziyang, what do you think we should do?"

After Liu Xun suffered this setback, the arrogance in his heart had dissipated.He finally realized that he was not the kind of hero who could scold Fang Qiu and give advice.

Liu Ye calmly winked at Gan Ning and Zhao Xue who were behind Liu Xun, if Liu Xun didn't know what to do later, they could directly take Liu Xun down.

"Sun Ce has regarded Lujiang as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. I think we should seek asylum from Prime Minister Cao for our own safety."

"Ah? Ah!" Liu Xun was stunned for a moment before realizing, "You mean, you want to seek protection from Cao Cao?"

"Yes...does Governor Liu think so?"

"No..." Liu Xun was about to refute, when he suddenly felt a chill coming from the back of his head.

He thought of the man wearing brocade clothes and bells, who was the rumored Jinfan thief Gan Ning, and suddenly realized that today's banquet might not be a good one.

Liu Xun didn't wait for Zhao Xue and Gan Ning to make a move, and quickly continued: "We should directly rely on Prime Minister Cao. Only by becoming a part of Cao Ying can Lujiang be truly safe!"

"Eh?" Gan Ning let out a light snort, and said to himself, "This man has some knowledge."

But Zhao Xue knew that Liu Xun had seen the intentions of himself and others, and chose wisely to save his life.

The final task is considered complete, and the rest will be left to Liu Ye to arrange.

Zhao Xue put away the short long sword she had drawn, nodded to Liu Ye, and left the banquet.

Seeing this, Gan Ning quickly followed Zhao Xue out.

The two were walking on the dark street, Gan Ning suddenly asked softly, "What are you going to do next?"

"Go back to Chenliu and return to life."

"and then?"

"Accept a new mission."

"I haven't thought about other things? For example, lifelong events..."

"My whole life belongs only to shadows."

Gan Ning sighed and said, "Then I will go back to Chenliu with you, and I will also join the shadow."

Zhao Xue stopped walking when she heard this.

"What's wrong?" Gan Ning turned around and asked.

"Gan Xingba, you are favored by your husband, you should have a brighter future."

"I would like to exchange my bright future for you to smile at me."

Zhao Xue remained silent, then raised her foot and continued walking towards her hut.

Gan Ning accompanied Zhao Xue silently until he sent Zhao Xue to the front of the house before turning and leaving.

The moment Gan Ning turned to leave, Zhao Xue suddenly said: "At the time of tomorrow, I will escort the Lu family to Chenliu County."

Gan Ning grinned at the corner of his mouth and said, "I'm the best at protecting people!"

The Lu family paid a huge price for the opposition forces in the Jiangdong battle.

Jiangdong definitely can't go back, and it's not even safe to stay in Lujiang.So after discussing with Lu Xun, Zhao Xue decided to escort them to Chenliu County first, and then see how Lu Yan and Guo Jia made arrangements.

Zhao Xue has compiled the details of what happened in Lujiang and Jiangdong into a book, and sent them to Chenliu County by other peripheral shadow members.

Zhao Xue, together with Gan Ning and his [-] Jinfan Army, escorted Lu's family towards Chenliu.

Xuchang, Prime Minister's Mansion.

Cao Cao received news from Shouchun. After all, Lujiang and Jiangdong were fighting so lively, Xiahoudun would get some news.

After reading Xiahoudun's letter, Cao Cao "tsk tsk" and said to himself: "Although the last step of the plan failed, their success has greatly exceeded all of our imaginations. A small shadow guard turned To be able to do such a great thing, the power of the shadow really cannot be underestimated!"

The fact that the Shadow Guard was able to stir up such a storm secretly was because Sun Ce didn't have the corresponding countermeasures.

After the changes in Jiangdong, the vassals are bound to pay more attention to the power in the dark. In the future, this kind of secret confrontation will become more and more difficult and bloody.

Liu Ye's identity is a bit sensitive, but his talent is indeed amazing.

After Cao Cao thought twice, he appointed Liu Ye as the prefect of Lujiang, and Liu Xun was transferred to Guangling as the prefect of Guangling.

As for the [-] soldiers Liu Xun left behind, most of them were divided and supplemented to the northern defense line, leaving [-] soldiers to defend Lujiang.

Huang Zu sent Gan Ning to help Lujiang defeat Sun Ce.With a big wave of Cao Cao's hand, he gave him a general Hengjiang, and rewarded him with countless gold and silver. At the same time as commending him, he bought Gan Ning and the thousands of troops under his command in disguise.

Huang Zu looked down on Gan Ning at first, with these assets, it was only a matter of minutes to recruit thousands of troops.

Moreover, he also won the title of General Hengjiang. For a while, Huang Zu could be said to have stole the limelight in Jingzhou.

......

In the second year of Jian'an, December.

Just before the end of the year, the Lu family finally came to Chenliu.

They passed through Shouchun and entered Yanzhou from Xuzhou, most likely avoiding the remnants of the Yellow Turbans and bandits that might be encountered along the way.

The sights they saw along the way made the Lu clan gradually gain confidence. When they arrived at the city of Chenliu, they felt like countrymen entering the city for the first time...

"My God! This city is so big and there are so many people!" Lu Ji, who followed Lu Xun every step of the way, said with emotion as he watched the constant flow of people coming and going at the gate of the city.

Lu Xun was also shocked by Chen Liucheng's majesty, but he was calm, so he didn't show too much surprise.

Gan Ning and his brothers looked at Chen Liu's city wall, which was more than ten meters wide and fifteen meters high, secretly thinking about how much it would cost to capture such a fortified city.

Lu Yan and Guo Jia got the news earlier.

So before Zhao Xue and others arrived, the two of them were already waiting outside the city gate.

The first time after arriving, Zhao Xue saw Lu Yan and Guo Jia from a distance.

She quickly came to Lu Yan Guo Jia, bowed and clasped her fists and said, "Qiang Yu, captain of the T-shaped Battalion, return to Mr. Jijiu, please forgive me!"

"Hahaha!" After Lu Yan and Guo Jia looked at each other, they suddenly burst out laughing.

The sudden laugh made Gan Ning behind Zhao Xue frown.

Just when Gan Ning was about to get angry, Lu Yan opened his mouth and said to Zhao Xue: "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, you are indeed at fault for being arrogant, but that cannot cover up the great achievements of your Dingziying in Jiangdong!"

After hearing Lu Yan's words, Gan Ning felt better.

Guo Jia nodded to Zhao Xue and said, "Bury the ashes of the brothers who died in battle in the Garden of Loyalty."

Zhao Xue's eye circles were slightly red, she stood up and said, "Thank you Mr. Guo and the sacrificial wine..."

Lu Yan looked at the coquettish man behind Zhao Xue, and asked with a smile, "Gan Xingba?"

"It's exactly... I thank Lu Hussar for your kindness." Gan Ning was referring to the kindness that Lu Yan sent someone to look for him.

"You have the talent of a famous general, joining the Shadow Guard would be a waste of your talent..."

Gan Ning's heart twitched, although his heart ached, he still said firmly: "Ning has made up his mind, join the Shadow Guard, and follow Qiang Yu around."

Can't tell, Gan Ning is still an idiot.

Lu Yan didn't force it, anyway, there would be opportunities to "fish" him out in the future, so he turned to Guo Jia and asked, "Feng Xiao, what do you think?"

After all, Guo Jia is now the nominal leader of the shadow, and it is not easy for Lu Yan to bypass Guo Jia and give orders directly.

Guo Jia nodded slightly, and said: "Okay, Gan Xingba, you can wait for Qiang Yu's orders for now."

"Here." Gan Ning clasped his fists and agreed.

Zhao Xue: "..."

Chapter 194 The eventful year finally came to an end

In October of the second year of Jian'an, Cao Cao's Biao Zhongyou served as the captain of the servant Zhongshou Sili, and supervised the troops in Guanzhong with festivals.

Prior to this, more than a dozen generals in Guanzhong acted independently, among which Han Sui and Ma Teng were the strongest.

After Cao Cao annexed Xuzhou and defeated Yuan Shu, he began secretly preparing for a decisive battle with Yuan Shao in Hebei.

In order to avoid the threat from Guanzhong in the west, Cao Cao sent Zhong Yao to supervise Guanzhong on the advice of counselors Xi Zhicai, Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu, Cheng Yu, etc., in order to find peace with the Guanzhong army for a while.

Zhong Yao went to Guanzhong under the secret protection of the shadow guards, and later stationed in Chang'an, and sent envoys to Han Sui, Ma Teng and others to analyze the general situation of the world and explain the pros and cons.In addition, Cao Cao acted in the name of the emperor, and his name was right and proper. Han Sui, Ma Teng and others did not dare to confront the emperor for the time being, so they sent their sons to serve Xudu to show their obedience to the central government, and Guanzhong was temporarily stable.Of course, these are things for later. .

In the same month, envoys from Xuchang went to Qingzhou with imperial edicts and heavy gifts.

Cao Cao represented Qingzhou Mu Lu Bu as the general of chariots and cavalry, and supervised all matters in Qingzhou.Chen Gong was granted the title of royal censor, and Lu Lingqi was appointed General Zhendong...

However, Lu Bu did not make it clear that he would form an alliance with Cao Cao, but he still accepted the edict and the reward. This made Yuan Tan, who was also in Qingzhou, quite afraid, and secretly began to deploy troops to guard against Lu Bu.

Sun Ce of Jiangdong failed to attack Lujiang, and was assassinated after returning to Jiangdong.

After Sun Ce's death, his younger brother Sun Quan succeeded to the throne and took charge of Jiangdong.

In order to make himself justified, and to reassure his own people and Cao Cao, Sun Quan sent an envoy Zhang Hong to Xuchang to seek an official for himself, and by the way, he stated that he only wanted to keep his father and brother's foundation, and had no ambition to expand.

Regardless of whether Sun Quan really has no ambitions, what Cao Cao needs most now is stability behind him.Moreover, the change in Jiangdong was originally directed by his own people. Now that Sun Quan was willing to succumb, Cao Cao followed suit and gave Sun Quan the title of general seeking captives, and let Sun Quan also serve as the prefect of Kuaiji.

Even a great Confucian like Kong Rong went to visit Zhang Hong in person when he heard that Zhang Hong had come to Xuchang... Now that such a great talent has been delivered to Lao Cao's mouth, it is naturally impossible to spit it out again.As a result, Zhang Hong was retained by Cao Cao and served as the official censor and doctor of Taixue.

Yuan Shao defeated Gongsun Zan and completely secured the area north of the Yellow River; Cao Cao annexed Xuzhou, defeated Yuan Shu, and established his foundation for world hegemony; after Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, he raided to capture Lujiang, but he didn't want to lose his life in the end......

In the second year of Jian'an, under the great changes in the world, it ushered in the end.

The end of the new year is approaching, and it is a rare time for family members to get together during the year.
