0274 Chapter Three Army Overseers
In Liyang City, 200,000 Jiangdong troops have gathered here from Jianye, which is across the river. After hearing that Lu Bu is in charge of the Xuzhou army massacres in Shouchun, Sun Quan and Sun Ce quickly adjusted their tactics to station the army here and wait for the changes of the times.
The Sun brothers, who have been through the battlefield for a long time, understand more than anyone how terrible and crazy the army with the power of killing is. If the Jiangdong Army heads north to seize Yangzhou land at this time, it will inevitably become Lu Bu's cruel next target for hunting. Even at this moment, Sun Quan was ready to retreat to avoid the front of the Xuzhou army, and rely on the natural danger of the Yangtze River to prevent Lu Bu's Xuzhou army from continuing to move south.
In fact, if it weren't for the strong opposition of Zhou Yu, the general general of the Jiangdong Army's water and land, I'm afraid at least half of the main forces of the Jiangdong Army had retreated to the south of the Yangtze River.
A very exquisite mansion in Liyang City has been requisitioned as the temporary governor's office of the Jiangdong Army. The one who lives in the mansion is Qingtong, the talented man who made Qin Yang regretful. However, since Qingtong surrendered to Sun Quan, she has changed her original name - Zhou Yu.
But this person who was dazzling and talented throughout the Three Kingdoms period was extremely heavy at this moment. From the white silk that was filled with silhouettes on the temporary Grand Governor's Mansion, anyone could see that the owner of the mansion was mourning.
In theory, the Grand Governor Zhou Yu was mourning, from the entire Jiangdong to the soldiers in the army, they should have gone to the mansion to pay tribute to show their comfort. But now, the door is neglected before the mansion, and the quiet gongs are ruddy.
The reason for this is not that Zhou Yu, the great commander of Jiangdong, has lost power. It is just that Zhou Yu is entrusted to the people whom Zhou Yu is entrusted to him now, is not his relative, and Zhou Yu does not want anyone to come to comfort him. Before the mourning in the mansion, he had already submitted a report to the Marquis of Wu, Sun Ce, and ordered the soldiers of the three armies to come to the mansion to pay entrusted to him.
The incense is swaying, and the white silk is like a waterfall. A huge nanmu coffin is placed upright on the lobby of the mansion. On the incense table in front of the coffin, the spiritual position of the reborn person is placed - "the position of Chen Gong, the master of Huashan layman."
Even in Jiangdong, only the Sun brothers and a few others knew about the relationship between Zhou Yu and Chen Gong. Everyone only knew that Chen Gong, a lay Buddhist in Huashan, had a disciple named Qingtong. But they didn't know that Qingtong was Zhou Yu, the commander-in-chief of Jiangdong. This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Yu did not want anyone to come to mourn filial piety.
At the same time as the Shouchun massacre began, Zhou Yu felt an extremely mysterious force suddenly pouring into his body. After following Chen Gong for many years, he only realized in an instant that he had obtained the power of the Dunjia Heavenly Book and Earth Scroll. It was also at this time that he began to mourn Chen Gong in his mansion.
The abilities of the Dunjia Heavenly Book have always been in line with each other. Even if you practice the same celestial book, before the first person with this ability fell, the rest of the practitioners would not get the power of the Dunjia Heavenly Book. In other words, before the fall of Chen Gong, although Zhou Yu practiced the Dunjia Heavenly Book, he could only exert the power of ordinary talisman masters to control the earth veins, and this ability is closer to the earth-attributed talisman technique like Ma Yuanyi.
However, after Chen Gong completely fell, Zhou Yu, the only one in the world who had practiced the Dunjia Heavenly Book and Earth Book, became the owner of this power. After he received the exact news of Shouchun's massacre, he also fully understood the reason for Chen Gong's death.
"Master, why would you rather fight your life than help Lu Bu do such a thing as anger and resentment..." In the empty mourning hall, Zhou Yu, dressed in mourning, muttered to Chen Gong's tomb as if he were to himself.
He knew how Chen Gong died, but no matter how talented he was, he could not understand why Chen Gong was like this. For him, Chen Gong treated him like a disciple and a son for many years. If there was anyone else to worry about in this world, I am afraid that besides the Marquis of Wu who swore allegiance to him, the only teacher Chen Gong would be the only teacher.
"Save the power of Dunjia Heavenly Book, causing two million creatures to be miserable, and the heavens are angry, people are resentful and gods and demons are retreating... This is definitely not Mr. Gongtai's original intention. It is really the teacher who has to do it..." Suddenly, a faint sigh blew through the mourning hall like a light breeze. The white silk moved slightly and the lights and candles shook gently. Even this scene in the sun could not help but make ordinary people shudder.
But Zhou Yu is not an ordinary person? After hearing this sound, Zhou Yu's eyebrows slightly moved, and the sad expression on his face was slightly curled. A cold light flashed in his eyes instantly. The corners of his eyes were already raised to both sides, and under such a gaze, anyone who looked at him would feel a sense of coldness.
"I wonder which master came to the humble house? If he was a friend, he could come out to meet him. If he was a demon, he might have come to the wrong place."
"Haha, Mr. Qingtong, don't be angry. The mountain man Zhuge Kongming came to visit. Please forgive me..." A chuckling sounded, and a figure slowly walked out after the white silk curtain, and the feather fan in his hand shook lightly, with a smile on his face. It was Mr. Wolong Zhuge Kongming.
"Mr. Wolong Zhuge Liang? What are you here to do? In addition, what are you practicing the Heavenly Book of Dunjia? " Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and the cold light in his eyes was still light.
Zhuge Liang smiled lightly, waved his feather fan in his hand, and said calmly: "I just want to tell you the real cause of death by ordering Mr. Shi Gongtai..."
"In the third year of Jian'an of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, after the rescinding of the army in Jingzhou, the Yellow Turban Army withdrew all Luoyang. The main troops of Runan mobilized new reinforcements from Hanzhong, and sent a total of 500,000 horse and staging troops eastward, and rushed to Anfengjin through the front of Yuzhou. At the same time, Cao Cao, who suddenly announced his alliance with the Yellow Turban Army, also mobilized 700,000 troops under his command to raise troops from the East County of Yanzhou and stationed in Jiulishan Hu to visit Xuzhou. Soon after, the Jiangdong Army issued a proclamation to respond to the two armies of Qinyang and Cao Cao. After a 200,000 army from Liyang, he captured Tuzhong, an important town in Yangzhou, and formed a joint attack with Qinyang's army to deter Shouchun. At this point, the three princes attacked Lu Bu. Finally, the people's anger was invaded by the cruel city massacre, which caused the princes of the world to join forces to attack." - "Biography of the Three Kingdoms"
Anfengjin is located at the intersection of the Huai River and Yingshui... Not long ago, after the famous golden tent was raised high, this half-mountain and half-water place was already famous all over the world.
"Oh? So Sun Quan is also interested in getting a shot? Do you want to take this opportunity to get a share of the pie? He may not know the danger of this battle?" In the golden tent, Qin Yang put Jiangdong's proclamation on the case and said lightly.
The current situation is that Cao Cao's army is 700,000, the Yellow Turban army is 500,000, and Jiangdong army is 200,000, and almost all of them are elite soldiers and generals. The three princes raised a total of 1.4 million troops. Looking at the whole world, there are probably not even terrified princes. Almost everyone believes that Lu Bu, who only owns Xuzhou and half of Yangzhou, will be destroyed like annihilated under the siege of the coalition forces. But Qin Yang knew that if it was really so simple, I was afraid that he would not have to give up Luoyang and join forces with Cao Cao.
"Your Highness is such a bad word. How could my lord rashly join the war without knowing the dangers of this battle? On the contrary, the reason why my lord sent troops to fight against the thieves was that he knew the dangers of the battle against Lu Bu, so he took the world as the first to send troops to help." In the golden tent, a middle-aged scholar wearing a long robe and extremely elegant appearance said neither humble nor arrogant.
Qin Yang raised his eyelids and said calmly: "Zhang Zhao, since you know the danger of this battle, then I want to ask for advice. Where is the danger of this battle?"
The envoy sent by Sun Quan to serve as an envoy to Qin Yang was a famous scholar in Jiangdong and a minister of Jiangdong. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Zibu. When he saw Qin Yang ask, Zhang Zhao couldn't help but smile and said, "Report to Your Highness Ming, my lord knows that although the battle between the princes has caused the people of the world to be displaced, it is a way to be chaotic first and then govern. However, the rebellion of Lu Bu is related to the life, death, honor and disgrace of the people of the world. People can finally be cured by the world, but demons can slaughter the people..."
"Oh?!" Qin Yang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard Zhang Zhao say this. He didn't expect that Zhang Zhao would know so much. Since Zhang Zhao already knew, then Sun Quan, Zhou Yu and others must have known about this. How did they know?!
Seeing that Qin Yang's face changed, Zhang Zhao already knew what Qin Yang was thinking, so he continued: "In addition to asking me to bring an edict to His Highness, my lord also wanted to recommend someone to the lord..."
“Who is recommended?”
"Report to Your Highness, the Cao army in the north, the Yellow Turban Army and the Jiangdong Army should share the same hatred against Lu Bu. Since it is an alliance of three armies, we naturally cannot fight each other. What my lord wants to recommend to Your Highness is the governor of these three armies."
"Governor General?" Qin Yang was stunned at first, then snorted and said, "Is the candidate for the Governor General of the Three Armies Mr. Zhang Zhao mentioned is Zhou Yu, the Grand Governor of Jiangdong?"
As soon as Qin Yang said this, the Yellow Turban Army generals in the Golden Top Treasure couldn't help but chuckled. Although they had never fought with Zhou Yu, they had heard of Zhou Yu's name. Since the Sun brothers returned to Jiangdong, Zhou Yu has become the pillar of Sun's family. In the battle to unify Jiangdong, all the battles commanded by Zhou Yu were victorious and never lost.
But even so, in the hearts of these Yellow Turban generals, they always believed that the reason why Zhou Yu was able to win invincible is because he did not encounter a truly powerful opponent. After all, the small princes in Jiangdong were not as good as Cao Cao in Qinyang, and even Gongsun Zan and Liu Biao. Therefore, Zhou Yu's title of the ever-winning general is too insufficient.
Zhang Zhao also heard the sarcastic meaning in Qin Yang's words, but his face remained silent and said: "Report to Your Highness, although the Grand Governor Zhou is invincible in strategizing, he has no intention of being the governor of the three armies. The person recommended by my lord is neither the General Manager of Zhou nor the person from any of our three coalition forces. I believe that Your Highness also knows the name of this person. He is a famous scholar who works in Nanyang and lies high above Wolonggang, Mr. Zhuge Kongming."
"Zhuge Liang?!" After Zhang Zhao said this name, Qin Yang's heart moved. He never expected that Sun Quan would propose to let Zhuge Liang serve as the so-called governor of the three armies.
