After being abandoned by Liu Bei, Cao Cao begged me to be a military adviser

"Continue talking!" Zhou Yu's expression remained the same.

Liu Xun said again: "Sun Quan is just a child of Huangkou, why should Gong Jin regard him as the master? Cao Gong said that as long as the general returns, Jiangdong will be your territory of Zhou Gongjin!"

"Boom!" Zhou Yu slapped the table with his palm: "You bastard, you should kill him for speaking out loud!"

Liu Xun smiled: "Zu came on purpose, and the two armies are fighting without beheading the envoy. Could Gong Jin be bluffing me?"

Zhou Yu approached Liu Xun, pulled out his sword suddenly, and pierced Liu Xun's chest directly.

"You?" Liu Xun pointed at Zhou Yu, his eyes full of disbelief.

Even Lu Meng, who was guarding in the big tent, changed his face.

"You must die!" Zhou Yu drew out his sword and kicked Liu Xun to the ground.

Lu Meng was shocked: "Grand Governor, he is Cao Cao's emissary, so you killed him like this?"

Zhou Yu turned around and asked Lu Meng, "Aren't you the reason for this person's visit?"

Lü Meng said, "I'm just persuading you to submit to the imperial court!"

"Stupid!" Zhou Yu said, "Cao Cao knew that I would not surrender, so he came to persuade me to surrender at this time to make the Lord suspicious of me!"

Lu Meng: "This..."

"If I don't kill this person, the lord will have nothing to say!" Zhou Yu shook his head and sighed softly.

After Sun Quan announced his resistance to Cao Cao, he appointed Cheng Pu as the deputy governor.

But Cheng Pu was not convinced by him, Zhou Yu, and did not go to the army, but stayed at home with illness.

At this juncture, if something happens again.

How could Sun Quan feel at ease with Zhou Yu?

Even Cheng Pu will attack Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu killed Liu Xun not just to demonstrate, but to take the opportunity to prove his loyalty to Jiangdong to Sun Quan.

Chapter 156 The Messenger Liu Xun's Glorious Mission After His Death

As Cao Cao's envoy, Liu Xun never expected that Zhou Yu would kill himself.

Although this is not the first time he has been swayed by Jiang Dong.

But none of that matters anymore.

At this time, Liu Xun's head had been put into a lime box, and Lu Su took a boat to Chaisang City overnight.

Early the next morning, Sun Quan received this gift when he woke up.

"Gong Jin killed Cao Cao's envoy Liu Xun? The head was sent to Chaisang City?"

Sun Quan looked at Lu Su in shock.

"Yes, my lord!" Lu Su nodded.

Sun Quan asked: "The two armies do not kill the envoy when they are fighting. This has been the case since ancient times. Why did he kill the envoy?"

Lu Su said: "The envoy persuaded the governor to betray Jiangdong and surrender to the imperial court. He killed Liu Xun in a fit of anger!"

After hearing these words, Sun Quan showed a look of relief on his face.

Lu Su handed another letter to Sun Quan: "Liu Bei was defeated in Jingnan, and the governor has written the situation in the letter. How to deal with Liu Bei, please decide!"

"Understood!" Sun Quan waved his hand to signal, and Lu Su immediately backed out.

Later, Zhou Yu ordered someone to invite Zhang Zhao into the study.

"Gongjin killed the envoy and wanted me to convict Liu Bei, what does Zibu think?"

After Sun Quan finished speaking, he handed the letter to Zhang Zhao and showed him Liu Xun's head.

Zhang Zhao was stunned, and stood there without saying a word.

Sun Quan said, "Zi Bu, are you alright?"

"The old minister is fine!" Zhang Zhao quickly waved his hands: "I just subconsciously thought of the old general Cheng Pu who excused his illness!"

"Oh?" Sun Quan was puzzled, "Why did you think of him?"

Zhang Zhaodao: "My lord, whether it's killing the envoy or convicting Liu Bei, it's Zhou Yu's act of showing his loyalty to you and the entire Jiangdong!"

"Haha!" Sun Quan smiled wryly: "That's right, loyalty caught me by surprise, and I didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so I asked Zibu for advice!"

Zhang Zhaodao: "My lord, in my opinion, Liu Bei should not be punished!"

"How do you say that?" Sun Quan looked at Zhang Zhao with great interest.

Zhang Zhao cupped his hands and signaled: "My lord, Liu Bei is the imperial uncle of the dynasty. He has been defeated many times and his fighting spirit has not diminished. It can be seen that this person is extremely thick and dark. If he is not killed, what is there to punish?"

"Hahaha!" Sun Quan laughed loudly.

Liu Bei has wiped out all the soldiers and horses, even if he is punished, what can he do?

For Liu Bei, it means that there are too many lice and he is not afraid of being bitten.

Zhang Zhao continued: "Now that the enemy is at hand, only internal unity can fight against Cao. Therefore, I suggest that my lord not punish Liu Bei!"

Sun Quan asked, "Zibu, if I comfort Liu Bei with a letter, and then give him food and grass for soldiers and horses, what do you think?"

Zhang Zhao frowned: "My lord, helping Liu Bei will naturally win you a good reputation, but if you weigh the pros and cons, it's probably inappropriate."

"Why?" Sun Quan asked.

Zhang Zhao: "The governor has always been afraid of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, if you help Liu Bei at this time, I'm afraid the governor will be dissatisfied!"

Sun Quan's face suddenly turned cold: "Is Jiang Dong the one who has the final say, or is it Zhou Yu who has the final say?"

Zhang Zhao hurriedly bowed and bowed his head in salute: "Of course it's you, my lord!"

Sun Quan said: "Then this matter is settled!"

"Obey, obey the lord's arrangement!" Zhang Zhao gestured with his hands clasped.

Sun Quan said again: "I would like to ask Zibu to send Liu Xun's head to the old general Cheng Pu's residence. I am glad that he will definitely get better after seeing the head!"

"Obey!" Zhang Zhao cupped his hands to signal, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead at this moment.

Although Sun Quan was young, he had a deep understanding of the art of checks and balances.

On the issue of whether to resist Cao, Zhang Zhao has already seen how powerful this lord is.

At the beginning, Zhang Zhao strongly opposed Cao Cao, and was hated by the generals in Jiangdong.

Some people even threatened to kill Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao originally thought that the guild would make things worse.

But he didn't expect to be used by Sun Quan to be directly responsible for Zhou Yu's food supply.

This shows Sun Quan's attitude, and it also makes Jiangdong's generals fear Zhang Zhao.

Once something happened to Zhang Zhao, the food and grass for the front line might not be able to be raised, and the battle would be impossible.

This matter is even more remarkable today.

It is simply a stroke of genius.

Instead of punishing Liu Bei, he continued to aid him.

The purpose is to support Liu Bei outward, in case Zhou Yu will make great achievements in the future.

But this move will inevitably dissatisfy Zhou Yu.

So Sun Quan sent the head of Cao Cao's envoy Liu Xun to Cheng Pu's home.

Cheng Pu and Zhou Yu had always been at odds, and Zhou Yu killed the envoy to show his loyalty to Jiangdong.

And Sun Quan sent the envoy's head to Cheng Pu again, telling him that the enemy is now unanimously foreign.

Cheng Pu is a veteran of Jiangdong, so he naturally understands this truth.

I dare not make extravagant problems at this critical moment.

Therefore, Cheng Pu will most likely go to the front line.

Zhou Yu was naturally very happy when he learned that Cheng Pu was persuaded by the lord to go to the front line.

As for the matter of aiding Liu Bei, there will be no more dissatisfaction.

One piece and one relaxation, one yin and one yang.

Sun Quan easily manipulated Zhou Yu.

After Zhang Zhao left the mansion, he immediately took Liu Xun's head to see Cheng Pu.

What Cheng Pu suffered was a heart attack. After all, he was a veteran who followed Sun Jian. Now that he was overwhelmed by Zhou Yu, he must not be convinced.

Zhang Zhao handed the box to Cheng Pu.

"Demou, this is a gift my lord asked me to give you!"

Cheng Pu opened the box and looked, his face changed: "Is this Liu Xun's head?"

"That's right!" Zhang Zhao nodded, "Liu Xun is Cao Cao's envoy. He came to persuade the governor Zhou Yu to surrender and was killed by him. His head was sent to Chaisang. My lord ordered me to give it to you!"

"Hahaha!" Cheng Pu laughed.

Zhang Zhao asked, "Do you have anything to say about Demou?"

"Understood, I understand!" Cheng Pu stroked his beard and nodded.

Zhou Yu defiled himself in order to resist Cao's assassination of the envoy, but he, Cheng Pu, was secretly fighting with Zhou Yu.

The lord didn't seem to say anything, but he seemed to say everything,

Zhang Zhao asked, "Demou, what do you understand?"

Cheng Pu said: "I would like to ask Zibu to tell my lord that tomorrow I will go to Sanjiangkou to report on my duties and join forces with the governor to fight against Cao Cao!"

"Okay, definitely bring it!" Zhang Zhao cupped his hands and asked, "Is this head?"

Cheng Pu said: "The head is still useful, I will take it to Sanjiangkou to present to the governor, and then send someone to exchange it to Cao Cao!"

"High, this is a high move!" Zhang Zhao repeatedly nodded with emotion, never expecting that a dead person can play such a big role.

Early the next morning, Cheng Pu and Lu Su arrived at Sanjiangkou Camp by boat together.

Zhou Yu learned that the old general Cheng Pu had recovered from his illness and came to report on his duties, so he went out of the camp to greet him in person.

The meeting gift Cheng Pu gave Zhou Yu was Liu Xun's head.

It is also a gift of loyalty from Zhou Yu to Sun Quan.

Cheng Pu bluntly said: "Make the best use of everything, the governor also please transfer this head to Cao Cao!"

"Hahaha!" Zhou Yu laughed loudly: "I will send someone to handle this matter immediately, and the old general will join the Chinese army with me!"

"Thank you, Commander!" Cheng Pu waved his hands and walked ahead quickly.

Zhou Yu immediately handed Liu Xun's head box to Lu Meng.

Lu Meng took the box, but hesitated to speak.

Lu Meng said in a low voice: "Commander, I just heard from Zijing that my lord not only has no intention of punishing Liu Bei, but also wants to help him again!"

"Do you want to help Liu Bei?"

Zhou Yu frowned, subconsciously looked at the box in his hand, then shook his head and smiled wryly.

"That's it, that's it!"

"Hurry up and send someone to send Liu Xun's head back to Cao Ying!"

"Obey!" Lu Meng clasped his fists in signal.

Chapter 157

In the middle of the night, Cao Jun's camp outside Jiangxia City, and the Chinese Army's camp.

Cao Cao was holding his rice bowl, but he didn't move his chopsticks for a long time.

All the generals rushed to Jiangxia with their troops, and the total strength of the three armies was nearly 80.
