Chapter 379 Joint troops?(1/2)
This was naturally Lu Su's first taste of distilled liquor.
As soon as you enter the mouth, your lips will move in a moment, as if you have endless aftertaste.
After a while, he looked at Guan Yu, his superior, with a look of surprise on his face and asked: "Your Majesty, what kind of wine is this?"
"Su has tasted countless fine wines in this life, but this wine is completely different from the other wines."
"Hahaha……"
Look at its floating face.
Guan Yu and the civil and military people living on both sides couldn't help laughing.
Watching this scene.
Lu Su didn't know why everyone was laughing, and his face was full of suspicion.
Everyone laughed heartily for a while, then everyone stopped.
Pang Tong on the side just noticed his expression and responded with a smile: "Zijing, don't worry too much. In fact, when we tasted this wine for the first time, our shocked expression was the same as yours."
"Ah? Really?"
"As far as we know, this drink is called Juxian Brewing. It was brewed by General Zhao Zilong's eldest son Tong. Its delicious taste and taste are beyond the comparison of ordinary drinks."
As soon as he said this, he paused for a moment and then said seriously: "It's just that this wine consumes a lot of food."
"Let's do this. When Zijing returns this time, we can give him a few jars of Zijing and you can take them back to Jiangdong and taste them with the Marquis of Wu. How about that?"
I heard that this wine was brewed by Zhao Tong.
Lu Su's expression couldn't help but become more and more shocked.
He didn't expect that, despite his achievements in military strategy at such a young age, he actually had hidden accomplishments in other areas.
That would be extraordinary!
The so-called "all-rounder" is nothing more than this.
However, when he heard that Pang Tong wanted to make the decision to give him a few altars, he quickly smiled, cupped his hands in thanks and said, "Then Su will thank Wu Marquis first."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The Sun and Liu families are now in alliance with each other to jointly fight against the Cao family. There should be no distinction between each other."
"Zijing is out of touch!"
"Ha ha……"
Immediately afterwards, the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, each laughing and talking.
only.
For Pang Tong, giving away several jars of Juxian Brewing just fulfilled his purpose.
They have all tasted the taste of this wine.
After tasting it, I found that ordinary wine was more and more difficult to swallow and tasted weird.
If you want to promote this wine.
First, give it to Sun Quan and other Jiangdong dignitaries to taste.
When the season comes, the market of Juxian Brewing can be distributed to all counties and counties in Jiangdong.
This is also the market layout finalized after discussions between Mi Zhu and Zhao Tong.
Now that Lu Su is coming, I would like to take the opportunity to send him off!
Guan Yu, who was in the first room, also sat quietly for a long time, staring slightly with red phoenix eyes, watching Lu Su's performance.
Seeing it, I don’t want to get to the point yet.
He couldn't help but his face darkened, and he reminded loudly: "Zijing, you are stationed at Lukou. This place is an important military location. If you don't need help from our army for something important, you will not put down your military affairs and come here in person."
Gangneung, right?”
"But I don't know what Zijing's plan is this time?"
Just one word.
Looking away, Lu Su's eyes were extremely sharp. Seeing the serious look on his red cheeks, he quickly got to the point, cupped his hands and said in a deep voice:
"Since General Guan mentioned this matter, he probably already has some understanding of the current situation in the past month or two, so I won't say more."
"The purpose of Su's trip is to persuade General Guan to gather all the Jingzhou troops and march to Xiangyang in order to conquer the Cao family's power in northern Jing."
"That Cao thief cannot take care of both the East and the West."
"In this way, the Sun and Liu families will work together to severely damage the Cao family."
He didn't hide anything during the conversation. Instead, he stated his purpose of coming straight to the point.
Lu Su also knew full well that Cao Cao quickly gathered his main forces from all walks of life, hoping to take advantage of the melting snow to launch a large-scale southern expedition. It was impossible to hide the military situation in Jiangdong from the Jingzhou side.
Guan Yu must have known about it a long time ago.
Then there is no point in continuing to pretend that he does not know about this matter.
On the contrary, it is better to tell the truth frankly.
The two sides jointly finalized various matters including sending troops.
After hearing these words, Guan Yu was already well aware of his intentions, but he pretended to have a slightly shocked look on his face, and said anxiously:
"Zijing, I know that the Cao family plans to launch a large-scale expedition to Jiangdong. I have indeed received military reports sent back by spies."
"I also understand that if the two families jointly send troops to fight against Cao's army, the chance of victory will be greatly increased, and it will be easier to resist Cao's family."
"but……"
The subject of the conversation suddenly changed. Seeing the changing emotions on his face, Lu Su couldn't help but feel his heart sink, as if he had guessed what he wanted to say.
"However, I really can't trust my Lord Wu!"
This word was read out with gritted teeth, which was enough to show the countless anger hidden in Guan Yu's heart at this time.
He looked at Guan Yu's angry expression.
Lu Su knew very well what exactly he hated.
Last year, without any warning, we led our troops to attack the counties in Jingnan and started the war without declaring it.
It almost resulted in the loss of several counties.
Lu Su understood Guan Yu's character, and it would be strange if he could forgive his lord.
But now the Cao family is aggressively conquering Wu and its power is strong.
This did not prevent excessive pressure on one's own side, but also ensured that the Sun-Liu alliance could be more stable in order to take into account the overall situation.
He pondered for a moment, then showed a thick smile on his face, clapped his hands and promised: "But please relax, General Guan. Even if you send troops to the north, Su Gan promises on behalf of the Lord that as long as Su is here this time, what happened last time will be avoided."
It won't happen again."
"I hope the general won't worry too much!"
After saying this, he patted his chest in response.
As soon as these words came out, looking at Lu Su's expression, before Guan Yu could respond, Pang Tong from the side suddenly took over and responded with a smile:
"Zijing, you have always taken the overall situation into consideration and have been working hard for the stability of our Sun-Liu Alliance."
"We don't have the slightest doubt about what you just said."
"But Marquis Wu, I don't dare to compliment him."
"If not, why didn't he personally send an envoy to discuss with our army about sending troops together?"
"On the contrary, Zijing put down his military duties and came here specially to replace the Lord."
After saying that, Pang Tong's face gradually became more serious, and he loudly said: "If Tong's prediction is correct, Cao's desire to conquer Jiangdong is just a cover."
"I'm afraid your lord and Cao Cao have secretly exchanged letters with each other. On the surface, the two sides are fighting fiercely, but in fact they want to take the opportunity to attract the main force of our army to go north, and then attack several counties in Jingnan again. Is that okay?"
These words were spoken one after another, and Pang Tong's words were extremely sharp.
On the contrary, Lu Su was caught off guard.
He knew that Pang Tong's worries were not without reason.
after all.
Last year, we did betray the alliance and went to war without declaring it.
Now Cao's army is approaching, but Sun Quan, the leader of Wu, still delays sending envoys because of his own face.
The attitude in this is very thought-provoking!
Naturally, it is not surprising that Pang Tong was having random thoughts at this moment.
But Lu Su's trip was for both sides to jointly send troops to put pressure on Cao.
Even in the face of many obstacles.
He didn't have the slightest thought of retreating.
To be continued...
