    Lu Su almost said this through gritted teeth.  Those Jiangdong civil and military officials who wanted to withdraw their troops saw Lu Su talking about it and came to persuade them one after another.  Zhou Yu looked at the group of Jiangdong Wenwu who came to persuade him, and his heart felt like a knife, but his reason told him that the best choice to make at the moment was just like what these people said.

    In the end, Zhou Yu agreed to make peace, and sent Lu Su as an envoy, preparing to enter the city to see Cao Cao the next day.  The seats were dispersed, leaving Zhou Yu alone in the tent, with his hands tightly clenching his fists, and two lines of blood and tears streaming down his face.

    "I, Zhou Gongjin, hereby swear that I will fight the old thief Cao till the end of my life until my great revenge is avenged!!!"

    At the same time, Cao Ren created a battalion that night and ordered Zhang Jiao to rush to Xiapi City with a book to report the arrival of reinforcements.  Zhang Jiao accepted the order, led a group of elite soldiers and cavalry, and set off at three o'clock in the night. Taking advantage of the cover of night, they detoured to look at Xiapi City and marched towards it.

    Zhang Jia walked cautiously all the way. At five o'clock in the night, he rushed to the foot of Xiapi City and shouted to open the door.  The defenders on the city recognized Zhang Jaw and guessed that reinforcements had arrived. They were overjoyed and ordered the soldiers to open the city gate.  Zhang Jia entered the city and immediately came to see Cao Cao.  It happened that Cao Cao was thinking about Zhou Yu's strange actions that night and couldn't sleep at night. Suddenly his brows jumped and he felt happy, feeling that good news was coming.

    Suddenly, a soldier came to report in front of the door, opening his jaw to see him.  Cao Cao laughed loudly and immediately summoned Zhang Jia to see him.  When I was young, I opened my jaw and bowed, and then I told you my past.  Cao Cao was horrified when he heard that such a fierce battle had taken place in the Xiapi realm today.  Later, when I heard that Cao Chun was captured by Jiangdong's army in response to rescuing Cao Zhang, his face suddenly darkened.

    "Hmph! This Huang Xu'er really doesn't know the heights of the world!"

    Cao Cao snorted coldly, his expression uncertain.  Zhang Jaw was afraid that Cao Cao would punish Cao Zhang severely, so he told Cao Zhang about his achievements in Yuzhou.  Cao Cao raised his eyebrows as he listened, thinking secretly in his heart.

    "It seems that Huang Xuer's martial arts are good, and with his bravery and good fighting skills, he can stand alone, but in order to become a great weapon, he still needs some training. However, these three sons are arrogant and arrogant. If they don't wear off their sharp edges, sooner or later they will be  Because of this, he suffered a disaster!¡±

    After thinking about it, Cao Cao didn't seem to be appeased by Cao Zhang's achievements. Instead, he became furious and cursed Cao Zhang.  Zhang Jia was unable to persuade him, and instead was accused by Cao Cao of being too supportive of this son.

    After a while, Cao Cao's scowl calmed down slightly, and he opened his jaw in praise as if his face had changed again. Naturally, rewards and rewards were inevitable.  Zhang Jia thanked him, and then Cao Cao asked Zhang Jia to go down and rest.

    Zhang Jia looked stunned and asked in confusion.

    "Nowadays, our army has become a cornered force and the situation is favorable. Doesn't your Majesty need the general to report back to General Cao and make some arrangements?"

    When Cao Cao heard this, he smiled mysteriously.

    "There's no need for this. You have to behave yourself. Junyi, just rest peacefully."

    He listened with his jaw open. Although he was still puzzled, he still followed Cao Cao's instructions and left.  At this time, it was already dawn, and Jia Xu had been thinking all night. He seemed to be aware of it and was rushing to see Cao Cao.  When Cao Cao heard that Jia Xu was coming to see him, he immediately smiled and summoned Jia Xu.

    Jia Xu finished the ceremony and was about to speak when he saw Cao Cao looking mysteriously happy.  Jia Xu's face condensed, his mind was racing, and he asked with a smile.

    "The king's face is filled with joy. Could it be that the reinforcements arrived last night?"

    Cao Cao nodded a little, smiled broadly, and immediately told Jia Xu what he had done with his open jaw.  Regarding Cao Chun being captured, Cao Cao seemed to be happy instead of angry.  Jia Xu pondered for a while, seemingly guessing what Cao Cao was thinking, and smiled.

    "Haha, it seems that Zhou Gongjin will withdraw his troops soon."

    "Oh? Why did Wen He say this?"

    Cao Cao raised his brows and asked Jia Xu with a smile on his face.  Jia Xuhao's eyes flickered, and he replied in a composed voice.

    "The current situation is very unfavorable to Jiangdong Army. But Zhou Gongjin is Sun Boxu's sworn brother, and Sun Boxu is the lord of Jiangdong. If his body cannot be recaptured, Jiangdong Army will definitely fight to the death. But yesterday Jiangdong Army will  General Cao was captured. In this case, the officials in Jiangdong would like to exchange General Cao for his master's body in order to obtain a truce between the two families. Although Zhou Gongjin was extremely reluctant, the public sentiment was difficult to suppress, and the situation was indeed not conducive to his army.  Zhou Gongjin had no choice but to agree to the wishes of his ministers. The king only needs to wait for a while, and an envoy from Jiangdong will come to see him!"

    "Hahaha! Wen He is indeed very thoughtful."

    Cao Cao laughed loudly, and Jia Xu was very humble and polite. He knew that Cao Cao had already seen through everything, and what he just asked was just intentional.

    At noon, Lu Su, supported by a group of Jiangdong elite soldiers, rushed to the city and shouted to see Cao Cao.  The defenders on the city had already received Cao Cao's order and immediately opened the city gate.  Lu Su then entered the city to see Cao Cao and explain the truce between Cao and Sun.  Cao Cao sat high in the hall. After hearing this, he comforted Lu Su and then ordered people to bring Sun Ce's coffin.  When Lu Su saw his master's coffin, he knelt down beside it.The hall cried bitterly, and everyone who saw it was moved and praised Lu Su for his loyalty.

    Cao Cao said softly with a bit of sadness on his face.

    "Gu Benwang formed a good alliance with the Sun family of Dongwu, and combined the efforts of the two families, they went to the Han Dynasty to exterminate the traitors and save the people of the world from dire straits. Unfortunately, God's will played a trick on people, and Sun Lang fell into the treacherous plan of Zhuge villagers.  It is not Gu's intention to betray the two families' alliance and invade Gu's situation. Sun Lang's body has been stored in a coffin. I hope Zhou Gongjin will return Cao Chun soon and the two families will stop fighting.  No more intrusions. This is a blessing to the imperial court and a blessing to the people of the world."

    Lu Su endured his grief and thanked him before going on his way.  Xun You's face changed drastically at the bottom of the steps, and he came out urgently to admonish him.

    "No! No! Your Majesty, you need to think twice. I have something to say, which can make all the armies in Jiangdong unable to return. Please kill Lu Su first, and then use a plan!!"

    As soon as Xun You said this, Lu Su turned pale on the spot and shouted in his heart that my life is at stake.

    Cao Cao frowned. Although the Jiangdong Army is in a losing situation, it still has more than 40,000 troops, and there are many fierce generals in the army. If it is forced to a corner, the other army will definitely fight to the death.  No one knows what the immediate outcome will be.

    Cao Cao didn't want to take risks, but he didn't refuse Xun You on the spot. Instead, he asked in a solemn voice.

    "According to Gongda's opinion, what should I do if I am alone?"

    Xun You¡¯s expression condensed, his bright eyes flashed with a compelling light, and he shouted.

    "Now that Sun Ce is dead, no one from the Sun family can take over the overall situation. The king should take advantage of this moment of weakness to wipe out all the armies in the east of the Yangtze River, then gather the army and attack the east of the Yangtze River quickly. All the lands in the east of the Yangtze River can be heard with a single drumbeat. If the corpse is returned, the troops will stop.  , allow him to develop his strength, and the hatred between the two families will be a real trouble for the Central Plains! "

    When Cao Cao heard this, his expression immediately became serious.  At this moment, Lu Su burst into laughter.

    ¡°Hahahahahaha!!!¡±

    Lu Su¡¯s laughter spread throughout the hall. Xun You¡¯s face turned cold, then he turned to look at Lu Su and asked coldly.

    "Lu Zijing, you are in great danger, yet you still dare to act so arrogantly here!?"

    Lu Su's laughter suddenly stopped, his eyes were cold, and he looked at Xun You coldly.

    "Although our Jiangdong Army is in a dangerous situation at the moment, we still have 40,000 elite soldiers. Zhou Tai, Lu Meng, Ling Tong, and Ding Fengzhi are the most powerful generals. In addition, our Jiangdong Governor Zhou Gongjin is in charge. If our army fights to the death, we will definitely be able to defeat the enemy."  If they fight hard, they will all be destroyed. When the power of the Sun and Cao families is greatly damaged, other princes from all over the world will only reap the benefits!

    "Don't forget, the champion Hou Wenbufan is currently conquering Xichuan. If the Northwest Army attacks Xichuan, they will gain the land of Shu.  Its power is so great that it can swallow up the whole world.  This man was the great trouble to the King of Wei.  If the King of Wei is determined to fight to the death with me, Jiangdong, I am afraid that the territory will not be protected in the future, and his entire life-long inheritance will be taken away by others!  "

    As soon as Lu Su said these words, these words revealed the biggest worry in Cao Cao's heart.  Immediately, the expressions of all the Cao family's civil and military officials in the hall changed dramatically, and they suddenly came to their senses.  Cao Cao's frightening eyes suddenly narrowed, staring at Lu Su, while his mind was spinning and he was analyzing it in detail.

    Nowadays, the soldiers and horses under his command are engaged in fierce battles in Jing, Henan and Xuzhou, resulting in a lot of losses. Moreover, the generals under his command are dead and wounded, but some of them are still injured. They are exhausted and mentally exhausted.  If he wanted to conquer Jiangdong, he would first defeat Zhou Gongjin's 40,000 elite troops, then march in with his troops and fight for a long time in the enemy's territory.  If so, the war will last for a long time and consume a lot of food and troops.  By then we will be able to capture Jiangdong.  Given the strength of Wenhan's northwest army, he must have already conquered Xichuan and gathered momentum to attack the Central Plains.  How can we withstand the Northwest Army's tiger and wolf divisions when our own army is weak due to years of fighting?  ?  Moreover, in the land of Jingzhou, there is still an ambitious man like Liu Xuande who is eyeing him. This man is complemented by Zhuge Liang, an unparalleled genius, who is even more powerful than a tiger. We must not take it lightly.

    After Cao Cao thought carefully, his eyes narrowed, but he pretended to be angry and shouted angrily.

    "Absurd!!! There are more than 600,000 heroes under Gu's command, and their power covers half of the country. Just a rat in the northwest, even if he has great courage, he would not dare to invade Gu's territory!!! Lu Zijing, you can't do it!  I'm here to talk nonsense, I have fought countless battles in my life, and I have no fear of anyone! Even Wen Bufan, Zhou Gongjin and others, if they dare to violate Gu's power, I will capture them sooner or later and make them surrender!"

    Cao Cao was furious and wanted to fight Jiangdong's army to the end.  Lu Su's body trembled, as if he did not expect that Cao Cao would ignore the overall situation and just want to fight with his own army to die out of anger.  Xia Houyuan frowned when he heard this. He was about to admonish Cao Cao, but he looked at Jia Xu first.  But he saw a faint smile on Jia Xu's lips, not worried about Cao Cao's rage.  Xia Houyuan suddenly understood a lot.

    At this moment, Cao Cao suddenly changed the topic and spoke again in a condensed voice.

    "It's just that Cao Chun is alone in the camp, so Anren abandons him. Cao Chun is a member of the Gu clan, and he was attacked by him before.In order to save his three sons, he was captured by Jiangdong's army.  It would be unjust to leave him alone.  Lu Zijing, please go back quickly. I will give you three days to give you an answer.  Otherwise, I will never give up with you Jiangdong!  !  !  "

    Lu Su was shocked when he heard this. How could he dare to make a mistake, so he just retreated.  Lu Su, as if he was out of his mind, hurried out of Xiapi and returned to the stronghold to see Zhou Yu and tell him what he had done.  All the civil and military officials in Jiangdong were shocked to hear that Cao Cao was so angry that he almost ignored the overall situation and wanted to fight to the death with his own army.  Later, when they heard that Cao Cao had given him a deadline, everyone came to persuade him.

    Zhou Yu's face was cold and cold. With his intelligence, he could not see that Cao Cao was using his mind, but he was secretly plotting in his heart.

    "Hmph! Old thief Cao is so cunning and cunning! Sooner or later I will teach you how powerful I am!"

    Although Zhou Yu knew this, he had no way of knowing what Cao Cao was thinking, because Zhou Yu understood that the morale of the army was now in chaos, and it was useless to say more.  Zhou Yu's bright eyes sparkled, and he suddenly came up with a plan.  Zhou Yu grinned and showed a strange smile.  Lu Su's heart trembled when he saw it, and he didn't know why.  Immediately Zhou Yu responded to Cao Cao's request and sent Lu Su to give a reply tomorrow, saying that in two days he would have his troops slowly withdraw from the border of Xuzhou and exchange them on the bank of the Yangtze River.

    When the Jiangdong civil and military officials heard Zhou Yu¡¯s orders, they were immediately relieved.  At the same time, Zhou Yu quickly sent people to Danyang and mobilized ships to respond.
