Spoiler History: Starting from the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 176
The fat and kind businessman found Jian Yong a clean courtyard for the group to rest.

"If there is nothing wrong, Mr. Da, don't go out after sunset." The kind fat man warned very cautiously.

Jian Yong laughed: "Sir, you are so worried, could it be that there are evil spirits that devour people in Chang'an?"

There was no smile on the corner of Fatty's mouth, he turned and left, his deep voice was brought by the cold wind:

"Cannibal...why do you need evil spirits?"

Jian Yong was startled and speechless.

After resting like this for three days, people brought food over every day, and Jian Yong and his party also lived in seclusion, greedily enjoying the rare stability and comfort after traveling all the way.

Until the fourth day, Jian Yong who got up in the morning and opened the door saw a layer of silver falling in the yard.

Rubbing his hands on his cheeks to warm them up, Jian Yong opened his mouth and let out a "breath".

"It's snowing..."

Pacing slowly in the yard with hands behind his back, feeling the creaking sound of the soles of his shoes squeezing the snow, a smile gradually appeared on Jian Yong's face.

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and the soldiers went to the door and asked in a low voice, then carefully opened the door, Jian Yong saw that kind round face again.

It's just that the smile disappeared from this round face at this time, only long sighs.

Jian Yong thought about it for a moment, and his heart became heavy:

"Too many people were frozen to death?"

Nodding with a gentle round face, he went to the porch and knelt down to sit down, staring at Bai Xue in the hall in a daze.

Jian Yong didn't speak, and went to sit beside him, lying on the porch and looking at the sky.

Judging from Jian Yong's own memory, more and more people freeze to death after the first snow every year. In addition to the current war, even if the people in the north can live as tenaciously as weeds, if disasters and wars come one after another today, How can we survive when the weeds are uprooted from the ground?

"Duke Cao brought his troops back last night. I heard that he will return to Ye City after a day's rest."

With a kind and round face, he said in a low voice:
"I took care of a Captain Cao Jun from my hometown. He didn't go to Yecheng but returned to Xudu. He happened to go with him to protect him, and I heard him say that Cao Gong sent..."

"Xia Houyuan, right?" Jian Yong interrupted and asked.

The kind round face looked at Jian Yong in surprise, nodded and said:

"Mr. Da can determine the affairs of the world without leaving the house... Xiahou Yuan was ordered to supervise Guanzhong. Duke Cao really wanted to occupy Chang'an, so this place is safe."

Jian Yong made his request:
"Then please sir prepare dry food for me. Tomorrow is also the time for me to leave for Yongliang."

"Since the first snow has fallen, sir, don't wait any longer?"

Jian Yong looked at the west and said leisurely:

"Ma Mengqi's new defeat, the age is not the same as me."

Hearing what Jian Yong said, his kind and round face was not hypocritical, so he nodded and left:

"In that case, I wish Mr. Da will get what he wants."

"The clothes and dry food needed to go to Yongliang will be prepared for my husband tonight, and Xu Du's letter will also be brought in person."

Standing in the snow, the two bowed to each other, and then left without looking back.

On the second morning, there was a light snowfall, and Jian Yong waited until Cao Cao's army moved out before staggering out of the west gate wearing a leather hat.

There is a long line of men, women and children lying on both sides of the road here in the doorway. They are already stiff, and the snowflakes are blown in by the cold wind and float on them without melting. It is the last embellishment.

Jian Yong took one last look, then clenched the leather hat tightly, and the group headed west into the wind and snow.

……

Jiangdong Dantu.

Lu Su felt annoyed when he threw Kong Ming's letter aside.

Apart from some empty phrases, this letter is exactly the same as the previous letters advising him to take care of his health.

This made Lu Su grit his teeth: Kong Ming, if you openly informed me of the situation, why would I be so laborious?
Since the vague acquisition of Zigui City in the first half of the year, Jiangdong has basically completely cut off the situation in Yizhou.

At first, Lu Su believed Kong Ming's rhetoric, until Jingzhou's detailed work sent back news that Jingzhou was constantly marching to the west, and grain and grass were also being continuously transported to the west of Jingzhou from Gongan Jiangling.

It was only then that Lu Su realized that the situation was not good, but a simple checkpoint in Zigui City had completely blocked the way to go west. Lu Su could only do his best and obey the destiny:
While writing a letter to question Kong Ming, he sent people into Shu from the Zangdao Road in Jiaozhou to inquire about the situation.

Kong Ming replied quite quickly every time, but the content was similar. He could talk about Jingzhou and Jiangdong, and Xuzhou also said that he often gave advice on attacking Hefei, but he didn't talk about Yizhou.

As for the difficulty of this road...it can only mean that it will be fast if the news can be sent back by next spring.

Therefore, although Lu Su was annoyed at Lu Meng's private dispatch of troops, since you sent troops, you must bring back something valuable, right?
As a result, the report submitted by Lu Meng can be summed up in four words:
The crossbow is strong.

If Lu Su hadn't considered that Lu Meng was Sun Quan's general, and that he was injured when he came back that night, Lu Su would have wanted to engrave this report on bamboo slips and throw it on Lu Meng's face.

Sun Hou persuaded to learn these four words?

So Bu Zhi came in and saw the angry Lu Su.

However, although Lu Su looked upset, Bu Zhi knew Lu Su's nature and would never take his anger out on others, so he generously reported:

"General, my lord has arrived in Dantu."

Lu Su was surprised: "Why didn't I receive any news before?"

Bu Zhi shook his head to express that he didn't know, Lu Su's thoughts changed quickly, he didn't care about that much for the time being, and immediately packed up some papers in a hurry, intending to have a good talk with Sun Hou.

Dantu also served as a government office for a period of time, so Sun Hou also has his own palace, and he hardly needs to think about Lu Su to know where the lord is now.

When the lord was still here before, Lu Su was also a frequent visitor here.

Now that the government office has been moved, although it is quite depressed, but a team of conspicuously dressed personal guards stood at the door, and Lu Su knew that the lord must be here.

After inspecting the talisman, the guards let him go, and as soon as he stepped on the steps, Lu Su saw Lu Meng coming out of it.

Lu Meng's face remained unchanged, he nodded with Lu Su and left.

Lu Su was thoughtful, then felt a little toothache, at this moment he suddenly missed Zhou Gongjin very much.

"Zijing!" Sun Quan laughed and climbed onto Lu Su's arm, "I was about to send someone to look for you, but I didn't expect you to come first."

Feeling helpless, Lu Su said seriously:

"My lord, don't you believe in Su?"

Sun Quan was shocked: "Why did you say that?"

"If my lord needs anything, just tell Su, and I will make plans for my lord." Lu Su warned.

He is not Zhou Gongjin, and he still wants to save face for the lord.

Sun Quan was embarrassed, and then said angrily:

"Then Liu Bei took Yizhou without telling him, and now he has established a foothold in Jiangzhou but refused to tell him. He has no faith. How can I treat him with justice?"

Lu Su was helpless: "Then Liu Bei'an is the master and minister?"

Sun Quan was silent, but his face was still full of dissatisfaction. Lu Su immediately asked again:
"How did my lord know that Liu Bei is firmly seated in Jiangzhou?"

Sun Quan pouted his mouth, and Lu Su followed the direction and took a letter from the desk behind him.

"He has a good handwriting." Lu Su praised.

The content of the letter is also simple, one of which is that Jingzhou is now empty, the army has been dispatched to Yizhou, and now Jingzhou is left with only Guan Yu.

The second said that Liu Bei had taken Jiangzhou, and advised Sun Hou to make plans early.

The third one said that Liu Bei often discussed important matters with his subordinates Wen Wu. This was an ordinary thing, but the time for the discussions was exactly three months apart, no less than one day.

"This..." The first thing Lu Su thought of was Mi Zhu's younger brother, but the handwriting really didn't look like it.

"Liu Bei doesn't know celebrities, so it's no wonder that his heart is in Jiangdong." Sun Quan smiled reservedly, and then asked again:

"What does Zijing think, is it possible for Liu Bei to take Yizhou?"

Lu Su did not hesitate to ask this question:

"Liu Jiyu is definitely not Liu Xuande's opponent, but..."

Lu Su carefully recalled Gongjin's intelligence collection on Yizhou before, shaking his head and saying:
"Liu Jiyu is short-sighted and weak. Although he has no strong generals, he is rich in soldiers. If he is forced into a desperate situation, he may join forces with Zhang Lu..."

Sun Quan nodded slightly, but he didn't have that much judgment, he simply felt that Liu Zhang himself was not good enough.

Also inheriting the legacy of my father and brother, my grandson Zhongmou conspired to defeat Cao's bandits in Hengping Jiangdong.

As a result, Liu Jiyu was obsessed with finding Cao Cao to sell him a good price?
"Then according to Zijing's opinion, when will Liu Xuande be able to pacify Yizhou?"

"There is a strong city in the middle of Shu. Liu Jingzhou's attack from a long distance is like a snake eating an elephant. It takes three years to grow its bones; it takes a year to attack Yizhou."

Lu Su said this with certainty, and then he took a step forward and changed his words:
"General Ziming suggested that my lord attack Jiangling with a large army?"

Sun Quan stepped back slightly, staring at the decoration on the wall next to him, and said:

"Zijing thinks it's impossible?"

"Absolutely not!" Lu Su said solemnly:

"If Jiangling is attacked and the way back to Zi is cut off, Liu Jingzhou's soldiers will be all in Yizhou without losing their strength, and they will add a big enemy for nothing."

"If you want to plan the world, you should destroy Cao first, and if you want to destroy Cao, you still need Zhang Fei's courage and Zhuge's wisdom. If you betray the alliance, wouldn't you be exterminated from the world?"

Sun Quan still didn't look at Lu Su, and looked at the scenery outside the window with his hands behind his hands. After weighing it in his mind, he suppressed the threat of Guan Yu's navy explained by Lu Meng in the bottom of his heart.

And briefly stated: "Jingzhou's method of smelting iron is beneficial to Jiangdong."

Lu Su nodded secretly, at least he finally knew the purpose of Lu Meng's private sending of troops. In this case, it would be easier to handle:

"In the first month of the year, Su will definitely present the law of iron smelting to the lord."

Sun Quan took a deep look at Lu Su and nodded in agreement.

Lu Su still looked calm and calm when he came out of Sun Quan's house. He just pinched Lu Meng's report that he had not taken out in his sleeve, and there was still a trace of tiredness between his brows.

Lu Su approved of Lu Ziming's worried attitude, but why was he so eager for quick success?

Back in his office, Bu Zhi submitted a letter:
"General Jingzhou Guan sent a letter."

Lu Su opened the letter and raised his eyebrows.

"Create a book for me, and promise to do it alone."

……

The time has come to November, and Baishui Pass can also feel a slight coolness.

After washing up in the dark, Liu Feng sat quietly in the house and waited for the military order.

They were told to go to bed early last night because they had to get up early today.

In the darkness, Mi Fang was the first to be unable to bear the loneliness, and laughed softly:
"Ma deserter, if you want to escape, you can just hide yourself in the bed board right now, and it will be convenient and safest for you to come out and escape after the army is dispatched."

Ma Di didn't bother to pay attention, but just let out a "sneer" in the dark.

Mi Fang continued: "Last time when you passed the Baishui Pass, you could scare the two with a white stick stained with lime. I can understand that."

Ma Su said angrily: "You have an elder brother, and so does a certain one, but I didn't write to my elder brother to beg and complain!"

In the dark, Mi Fang, who had never received a reply, blushed, but then laughed at herself like a deflated ball:
"If someone dies on the battlefield, brother should be relieved."

Liu Feng frowned and felt noisy: "Are you finished? Save yourself some effort."

After a moment of silence in the darkness, Ma Su asked:
"Mr. Liu still doesn't want to say why he came here?"

Liu Feng's words were short and powerful:
"Someone only knows that he is a good man if he kills the enemy and wins the merit!"

Ma Su didn't speak anymore.

At this time, someone outside shouted:

"Assemble at the school grounds, soldiers dispatched to Hanzhong!"

　3.3 words, Chapter 2 will be late at night, try to make up what you owed yesterday.
