After guarding the border for his father for three years, the daughter-in-law returns home and becom

the other side.

Following Chu Yang's instructions, Zhang Liao had ordered his men to tie branches to the horses. From a distance, the dust was flying and the noise was huge.

It seemed as if a huge army was approaching.

"General, look!" a scout exclaimed, pointing into the distance.

Zhang Liao looked carefully and saw more than 200 cavalrymen galloping towards him. Each of them had a dusty face, obviously after a long journey.

"Is the person coming under your Highness's command?" Zhang Liao was delighted and asked loudly.

"Exactly!"

The leading soldier dismounted, walked quickly to Zhang Liao, and handed him a stack of letters. "General Zhang, this is what His Highness asked me to give you. He also said that we will all follow your command now."

Zhang Liao took the letter and without bothering to say hello, he immediately opened it and began to read it carefully.

In the letter, Chu Yang described his bluffing plan in detail, and ordered Zhang Liao to hold Sun Quan back until he arrived with his army.

"Well, what a bluff! Your Highness is indeed resourceful!"

After reading the letter, Zhang Liao couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh. The original uneasiness in his heart disappeared, and was replaced by immense confidence and heroism.

He seemed to have seen himself leading tens of thousands of troops and slaughtering Sun Quan's 100,000 mob without leaving a single soldier behind.

For a moment, everyone was full of passion and enthusiasm for fighting!

"Come on, pass the order down, raise all our flags, and let that old man Sun Quan see that our reinforcements are coming soon!"

Zhang Liao waved his hand and gave the order with great vigor.

"promise!"

The soldiers responded loudly and quickly carried out the order.

Soon.

The originally empty wilderness was now filled with large flags with the word "Chu" written on them, fluttering in the strong wind, as if announcing Chu Yang's arrival to the world.

"Report——"

at this time.

A scout hurried over, knelt on one knee, and reported: "General, Sun Quan sent an envoy, saying he wants to negotiate with us!"

"Oh? Negotiation?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Liao's lips curled up into a playful smile.

It seems that my bluffing strategy has begun to show results.

"Humph, this Sun Quan is really impatient. I haven't even gone to look for him yet, but he sent someone here first."

"Well, I want to see what he is up to!"

Thinking of this, Zhang Liao waved his hand and said loudly: "Come here, bring Sun Quan's envoy up!"

"promise!"

A moment later, a middle-aged man wearing a scholar's robe, a silk scarf on his head, and holding a feather fan, came to Zhang Liao tremblingly under the escort of several soldiers.

"I am an aide to General Sun, and I would like to greet General Zhang."

The scholar bowed deeply to Zhang Liao and spoke respectfully.

"No need to be polite. Tell me, why did your general send you here?"

Zhang Liao stood on a stone and asked condescendingly, exuding an aura of majesty without even being angry.

The scholar secretly glanced at Zhang Liao and saw that he looked majestic and murderous.

I couldn't help but feel a little scared, and my speech became a little stammering.

"General Zhang, my general said that this matter is just to bring the Seventh Prince Chu Yang back to the capital, not to fight a war."

"As long as you are willing to withdraw your troops and allow the Seventh Prince Chu Yang to return to the capital, he is willing to offer ten thousand taels of silver and ten beauties as a token of his gratitude."

"Really?"

Zhang Liao looked at the scholar with a smile on his face, a hint of sarcasm flashing in his eyes.

"Your general is really generous. He spent 10,000 taels of silver and 10 beauties. If you don't know, you would think your general runs a bank or does sex trade."

Upon hearing this, the scholar's face turned pale and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but found that he had no idea where to start.

"Go back and tell Sun Quan that I, Zhang Liao, don't care about his dirty money or his women!"

Zhang Liao stood up suddenly, pointed at the scholar's nose, and shouted:

"If he knows what's best for him, he should take his people and get out of Luoyang City. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"

"you you……"

The scholar was so frightened by Zhang Liao's sudden anger that he trembled all over and was speechless for a long time.

"roll!"

Zhang Liao shouted angrily, scaring the scholar so much that he pissed himself and fled from Zhang Liao's camp.

"Come here, give these letters to Sun Quan!"

Zhang Liao casually handed Chu Yang's letter to a personal soldier beside him and gave instructions.

"promise!"

The soldier took the letter and turned away.

Sun Quan’s camp.

"Report——"

"General, Zhang Liao sent someone to deliver a few letters."

"Send it up!"

Sun Quan took the letter, unfolded it, and his face suddenly changed. His already pale face now looked even more bloodless, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

On the letter, it was written:

"Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, Qiongzhou, in compliance with His Majesty's order, lead the army to suppress the rebellion. You will arrive outside Luoyang City within three days."

Then he opened several other copies, which were the official seals of various county magistrates!

"Treason, this is treason!"

Sun Quan slammed the letter in his hand on the table, his face turned ashen, and he felt as if he had swallowed a fly.

He never expected that the seemingly docile Seventh Prince.

How dare he be so courageous as to openly rebel against the imperial court!

"The world is going to be in chaos!"

A counselor in the tent cried out in shock, his body shaking uncontrollably, as if he had seen the collapse of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Sun Quan suppressed the fear in his heart, looked around at the generals in the tent with pretended calmness, and snorted coldly.

"Why are you panicking? I have an army of 100,000 soldiers, and the Great Zhou has a million strong army. How can a mere Luoyang City turn the world upside down?"

"General, you are right! A mere prince of the Seventh Prince dares to plot a rebellion. He is simply courting his own death!"

A general quickly echoed, his tone full of disdain for Chu Yang.

"General, I request that you lead an army of 50,000 to capture Luoyang City early tomorrow morning and bring the traitor Chu Yang to justice!"

Another burly general clasped his fists and asked for the order, with a bloodthirsty light flashing in his eyes, as if he had already seen the scene of his triumphant return.

"No hurry, pass the order down, prepare the army, and march to Luoyang city tomorrow!"

A sinister look flashed in Sun Quan's eyes.

He wanted to let Chu Yang know that there was only one outcome for resisting the imperial court, and that was death!

"promise!"

All the generals responded in unison, and for a moment, the entire military camp was filled with murderous intent, as if a sleeping beast was slowly waking up.

The sky is getting brighter.

A ray of morning light shines through the clouds and falls outside Luoyang City, illuminating a golden glow.

Zhang Liao stood on the commanding heights, looking at the endless tents in the distance, a disdainful sneer on his lips.
