Chapter 67

Regarding the death of Zhou Gongjin informed by the light curtain, Liu Bei is contradictory.

On the one hand, no one can not appreciate Zhou Gongjin, who is extremely heroic. He set Jiangdong and won Chibi, and Zhou Lang is so talented.

On the other hand, Zhou Gongjin can really be called a great enemy. In Lu Su's secret letter, Zhou Yu's attitude towards Liu Bei is almost similar to that of Cao Cao.

Therefore, when he learned from the light curtain that Zhou Gongjin's life was not long, Liu Bei secretly rejoiced that such a great enemy was captured by the sky.

But at the same time, I felt the regret of seeing a generation of heroes die young.

It wasn't until the negotiations with Zhou Yu in Jiangshui two months ago that Liu Bei suddenly woke up.

Zhou Gongjin's death or not is not up to him.

According to later generations, Zhou Gongjin may have been inflamed by the bacteria, which was violent.Doctor Zhang who asked privately also said:

If you cut off the poisoned flesh early and supplemented with rest, you may be able to rejuvenate, but if you force the injury like Zhou Yu, it can only be said that there is no cure, just wait for death.

Besides, even if you tell Sun Hou, you will probably think it's a lie to provoke, why bother?

Liu Bei, who had figured it out, became more and more indifferent, and when he received this letter, he felt that it should have been so long ago.

And... if Gong Jin doesn't go, where will Pang Tong come from?

"Zhou Gongjin is critically ill?" Kong Ming was surprised.

There are two secret letters, and after scanning them at a glance, Kong Ming already understands the ins and outs.

One came from Jiangxia, claiming that a boat came from Jiangling yesterday night to Chaisang.

The second is from Jiangling, which records that the defense time of Jiangling city defense has become longer.

"Lu Zijing's trip has paid off. Zhou Yu went to Chaisang to recuperate?" Kong Ming easily guessed.

According to what the light curtain said, half of Zhou Yu's trip was to recuperate from illness, and half was to persuade Sun Hou to send troops to Yizhou.

"Congratulations, my lord, Jiangling City has been acquired." Kong Ming cupped his hands in congratulations.

"The plan will be released?" Liu Bei thought for a while but couldn't come to this conclusion, so he simply gave up thinking.

"Your lord, you can send another letter to Marquis Sun, and then Chen Lejin's courage, and promise that if Zhou Gongjin sends troops to Yizhou, he is willing to be the vanguard, but he can't bear the brotherhood, and is willing to attack Hanzhong alone."

In addition... Reaching out and digging in his sleeve, Kong Ming took out a letter that had already been written:

"Secretly order Mi Zifang to send out this secret letter, if both letters are issued together, then Jiangling can get it."

A moment later, Mi Zhu, who came under the command, got the secret letter from the lord with mixed feelings.

It was a kind of shame mixed with emotion, and at the same time, there was hatred for his younger brother and admiration for the military master's wit:
"Zhu will not disgrace his life!"

……

In late May in Dantu, Lu Su, who was besieged by travel and dust, saw Sun Quan in high spirits as soon as he entered the door.

"Come here, come, Zijing, and drink up this cup of Jiu Yunchun!" Sun Quan's cheeks were a little blush, coupled with slightly different-colored eyes, beard and hair, which made his whole person even more heroic and extraordinary.

Taking the wine glass and sniffing it lightly, Lu Su drank it full: "Thank you, my lord, for giving me the wine."

"Is there any happy event at today's banquet?"

Sun Quan grabbed the wine glass and handed it to the waiter: "Full up!"

Then he laughed and said, "Today's banquet, Jianzi Mountain!"
"A letter from Lai Gong from Jiaozhou said that Wu Ju was humiliated. Zishan took the initiative to invite Ying, willing to lead only a thousand people to rule Jiaozhou."

Lingling Lai Gong?Didn't they all vote for Liu Bei?A letter crying about being humiliated by Wu Ju?
Lai Gong's heart towards Marquis Wu?Lu Su thought about it for a while before discarding the idea.

Impossible, whether it is Lai Gong or Wu Ju and Jiangdong have no intersection, it is true that the lord has always had a fondness for Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou has a vast territory and few people, so it is better to rejoice in favor of scholars rather than conquest. The Lord's move is more like a show of force.

Bu Zhi came over to say hello to Lu Su with a wine glass in his hand.

"The post of prefect of Zishan..." Lu Su was puzzled.

"It's the governor of Jiaozhou now!" Sun Quan patted Bu Zhi on the shoulder very affectionately.

"Moreover!" Sun Quan took another sip of Jiu Yunchun, which was full of waiters, and said:

"Liu Bei sent a letter, saying that if Gong Jintu Yizhou, he is willing to attack Hanzhong, and pretending that he does not want to fight with Liu Zhang's clan, hey!"

After taking another sip, Sun Quan burped a little and said, "Who knows the tricks of ghosts and monsters? Just want to be like the four counties of Jingzhou, and steal Hanzhong again! Do you think you are the great ancestor?"

Lu Su glanced at Bu Zhi, who felt that he was too drunk to plead guilty and retreated.

Lu Su stepped closer to Sun Quan and said, "The governor received a secret letter from the police the day before yesterday, saying that Liu Bei had forgotten himself and boasted to his people that Guan Yunchang is invincible and that the four counties of Jingzhou are impenetrable."

"Earlier, Duke Cao sent Le Jin to garrison in Xiangfan. However, Le Jin was always the first to ascend, and he feared that he would take the initiative to invade Jiangling after July."

"According to Su's opinion, Jiangling should be handed over to Liu Bei, and Guan Lejin and Guan Yu, which one is the fierce general?"

Sun Quan's green eyes regained clarity, and he thought slowly in his heart, "Where did Gongjin's secret letter come from?"

"He is Mi Zhu's younger brother. He is greedy for pleasure, and Mi Zhu allocated his family assets to fill Liu Bei's treasury, so he has a lot of resentment towards Mi Zhu."

"Reliable?" Sun Quan was worried about this.

Lu Su suddenly talked about another topic:
"Mrs. Sun sent back news from the past, saying that the police have built a new paper mill."

Sun Quan didn't say a word, but motioned for Lu Su to continue. The two walked and talked, and they had already transferred from the main hall to the study in the back hall.

"It is said that Mi Zhu bought it from Cao Gong with a huge sum of money to make Zuo Bo paper, and Liu Bei wanted to rely on it to earn military funds."

"However, in the secret letter, the person claimed that he had stolen the remnant of Zuo Bo's paper, and wanted to sell it to the governor for three hundred gold."

"Three hundred gold?!" Sun Quan just picked up his pen and was about to write a picture of sobering up, when he heard this, his hands trembled, and a page of Zuo Bo's paper was useless.

Feeling distressed and shocked at the same time, he cursed: "Is he crazy?! One hundred gold... no, ten gold! If you don't sell it, send the secret letter to Liu Bei!"

"The Metropolitan Governor has settled with his money and goods." Lu Su said embarrassedly: "The Metropolitan Governor said that only the remnants of paper making can verify whether he is reliable."

"Leaving a record also threatens more important information."

"If you give it, then give it... You really are a small person!" Sun Quan scolded: "Then can there be any results in the verification of the disabled party?"

"The governor summoned paper craftsmen in Chaisang to verify it. Most of the paper craftsmen claimed that the remnants were authentic, but it would take a lot of time to make Zuo Bo paper."

"It doesn't matter." Sun Quan made up his mind: "Let Liu Bei move to Jiangling, and when Gongjin recovers from illness, he will send to Yizhou, force Liu Bei to be the vanguard, and I will get all the police."

"When the time comes, find out the villain who took the three hundred gold arbitrarily, and punish him to vent his hatred!"

"Does Zijing think it's okay?"

Lu Su's face was filled with relief: "My lord's tone is right, great kindness!"

……

"This is Jiangling City?" Zhang Fei's face was full of disappointment:

"Is this the Great Pass of the Heaven?"

"Let's go, General Zhang." Huang Zhong pulled his horse to catch up with him, and said with a smile:

"If Jiangling wants to become a grand pass in the world, General Guan needs to work hard to manage it. Now it can only be regarded as an important town in South County."

Guan Yu, who was riding in front, didn't answer. He looked at the city very curiously, but there was still a hint of ambition in his eyes:
In this life, the Jiangling City that he built with his own hands should be famous all over the world under his hands!
Under the hands of others, it is a pity to shock the enemy country and achieve the prestige of others!

In front of Guan Yu is Liu Bei, and there is no one else beside him.

"Brother, why didn't Kong Ming come?" Guan Yu was curious.

Guan Yu also clearly admired the strategist's strategy. He wrote letters imitating Mi Fang's handwriting to lure him, calmly grasped Sun Hou and Zhou Yu's thoughts and made a fortune.

In the end, he was able to settle in Jiangling one year earlier than in the light curtain. His contribution is very great, why can't he be seen?
"Kong Ming..." Liu Bei whispered with worry in his heart:
"Wu Ziqing is here, and there may be changes in Jiaozhou."
