Chapter 430: Zhou Yu resigned

Yanzhou,

"You go and inform Jingluo and order him to stop the attack on Jiangdong and rectify Danyang, Jiujiang, Lujiang and other places." Cao Cao commanded the soldiers.

"No!"

"Zhicai, are you sure that Sun Ce's death was committed by Liu Wei?" After the soldiers left, Cao Cao asked Xi Zhicai beside him.

"Subordinates are sure!" Xi Zhicai replied affirmatively.

"On what basis?" Cao Cao asked suspiciously.

"Woman!"

"You mean that Liu Wei sent someone to assassinate Sun Ce for a woman?" Cao Cao said in shock.

"That's right!" Xi Zhicai gave Cao Cao an affirmative answer.

"Can Zhicai solve a puzzle?" Cao Cao asked curiously.

"If the lord is Liu Wei encountering Jiangdong's situation, will he send troops to attack and change the situation?" Xi Zhicai did not answer directly, but threw a question to Cao Cao.

"Of course!" Cao Cao replied without thinking about it.

But Liu Wei didn't, Jiangdong Lusu went to Yanjing for help, Liu Wei did not agree immediately, but put forward two conditions that made Jiangdong very difficult, and he would never send troops if the conditions were not met. According to Yanjing's spies, it was because the conditions were met that Liu Wei sent out the army, and one of the conditions was a woman. When Xi Zhicai spoke, his tone was also very surprised, you can imagine how shocked he was when he learned the news.

"What does this woman have to do with Sun Ce's death?" Cao Cao was puzzled.

"Sun Ce loved this woman deeply before his death, but the woman never agreed, during the period when Sun Ce was defeated and seriously injured until his death, Sun Ce had already begun to prepare to use force, that is, at that time, Sun Ce was assassinated, so his subordinates can be sure that Sun Ce's assassination was done by Liu Bian." Xi Zhicai replied affirmatively.

"I didn't expect this Liu Wei to take such a mediocre path." Cao Cao has already believed what Xi Zhicai said, after all, Cao Cao is not a mediocre person, and after careful reasoning, he can understand it.

"I only learned today that Liu Wei is also a member of my generation!" Cao Cao laughed

"His father has three thousand beauties in the harem, and he is promiscuous, so how can he be any better as a son." Xi Zhicai's face was full of disdain.

"I heard that Liu Bian's harem from the queen to the most ordinary beauties are all beautiful and beautiful, beautiful and moving, he Liu Bian is really the best in the world, what a blessing, what a blessing!" Cao Cao said with some taste.

"If the lord is willing, the lord can take them all in the future!" Xi Zhicai said jokingly.

"Zhicai, do you think so-and-so can do it?" Cao Cao understood what Xi Zhicai meant, but he was not completely sure.

"The lord has filtered, in the world, the biggest opponent of the lord is Liu Bian, he used to be perfect, and his subordinates didn't believe that the lord could win, but now it's different, because we know that Liu Bian is not perfect, he also has flaws, since there are flaws, then there will be no chance, the lord should be confident." Xi Zhicai persuaded.

"What Zhicai said is extremely true, he has fallen into it." Cao Cao suddenly realized.

"Lord, my subordinates suggest that I make peace with Liu!" Xi Zhicai proposed.

Cao Cao looked at Xi Zhicai and was very puzzled.

"It is not beneficial for both sides for the lord and Liu Wei to continue to fight, the best way for Liu Wei now is to recuperate, the main goal for us is Jiangdong and Yuzhou, it is not wise to break out a violent conflict with Liu Wei now, that will lead to our army being surrounded on three sides." Xi Zhicai replied.

"Even if a certain can strike the army, then Liu argued, and Taishan, what about the two counties of the East China Sea?" Cao Cao retorted.

"The main tolerance, the reason why Liu Wei sent troops is nothing more than a promise, Jiangdong has stopped fighting, and Liu Wei can also stop fighting, after all, they fought with Yuan Shao last year, and they couldn't recover from the injury of their meridian bones for only one year. Taishan, what about the two counties of the East China Sea to him, compared to these two counties, Jiangdong is the most important. Xi Zhicai persuaded.

"He can send troops for the first time because of the Jiangdong matter, why won't he send troops for the second time. When will our army get Jiangdong! Cao Cao retorted again.

"The Lord is just as good as we have a goal, and so is he Liu Bian, Gongsun Zan of Youzhou will be the turtle in his urn sooner or later, and Lu Bu of Bingzhou is also his target, and the most important thing is that the thieves outside the gate are eyeing him, and he will definitely solve these three forces first. The lord only needs to wait for Liu Wei to pull away, and then the lord can act and take the land of Jiangdong into his pocket. Xi Zhicai explained again.

"Zhicai, thoughtful, a certain is too late!" After listening to Xi Zhicai's explanation, Cao Cao also understood, and immediately smiled.

"The lord has won the award, and there are still too many deficiencies in the drama compared to the lord." Xi Zhicai said modestly.

"Zhicai, just follow what you said, truce the war!" Cao Cao made up his mind.

"Someone!"

"Lord!"

"You immediately go to Cao Ren and tell Cao Ren to make a truce with Xu Huang." Cao Cao commanded.

"No!"

……

In the end, under the discussion of the two sides, after five days, the two armies made a truce, for the truce, Liu Wei was extremely happy, he was not willing to fight with Cao Cao now, for him, the current goal is to merge the land of the state and the land outside the country, as for Gongsun Zhan, he will still keep, because it is his barrier to restrain Li Tang.

……

Jiangdong, at the celebration banquet,

"This time I can retreat from the enemy of the Cao army, Zi Jing is indispensable, you all have a cup with Ben Hou Jingzi." Sun Quan said happily while holding his wine glass.

"My lord, please!" Seeing this, Lu Su could only get up and correspond to Sun Quan, and then many Jiangdong officials began to salute Lu Su's wine, and Lu Su also drank five or six glasses of wine.

"Lord, in Lu Su's opinion, the person who has the greatest credit for this battle is not my Lu Su, and the metropolitan governor Zhou Yu, Zhou Gongjin, if he didn't lead the army to stop the Cao army on the front line, we would never have waited for Youzhou to send troops." Lu Su said at this time, Lu Su is honest and straightforward, he knows that Zhou Yu and Sun Quan have a gap, but he still gives the credit to Zhou Yu, he is not greedy for credit.

"Yes, Zijing is right, this time the metropolitan governor should be the first to take credit." At this time, Huang Gaiwei got up and said, Huang Gai at this time has come out of his grief, he has understood the matter of Zhou Yu and Sun Quan, and has secretly expressed his dissatisfaction with Sun Quan several times, for the victory of this battle, in his opinion, Zhou Yu is the most important.

He didn't care too much about sending Da Qiao and Sun Shangxiang to Yanjing, after all, he was Sun Jian's era, and he didn't care about Da Qiao, even if she was about Sun Ce.

"Yes, Gongjin has made a lot of contributions this time, I want to respect, I want to respect!" Sun Quan reluctantly toasted Zhou Yu again.

"Thank you, my lord!" Zhou Yu got up and drank.

"Gong Jin has made a lot of contributions this time, but if there are any requirements, Ben Hou will try his best to meet them." Sun Quan said with a smile.

"Back to the lord, Zhou Yu has nothing else to think of, only one request!" Zhou Yu replied.

"Gong Jin, please speak!" Sun Quan said with a smile.

"Now that Jiangdong is full of talents, Zhou Yu already feels a little weak after experiencing this war, so Zhou Yu asked to resign from the position of Metropolitan Governor, hoping that the lord would allow it." Zhou Yu said in a pleading tone.

"Is Gongjin true?" Sun Quan said tremblingly, Sun Quan was very excited and nervous at this moment, and Zhou Yu's departure was definitely beneficial to him.

"Zhou Yu's words are all from the bottom of his heart, and there is no half-truth." Zhou Yu said solemnly, he, Zhou Yu, didn't understand what Sun Quan meant.

"Gongjin thinks twice!" Huang Gai stepped forward and persuaded him.

"Gongjin Jiangdong has the status it has now, and you and Bo Fu have spent countless efforts to get it, do you really want to give up?" Lu Su said with a trembling persuasion.

"Zijing doesn't need to be persuaded anymore, Bo Fu is dead, this time even his beloved woman has not been saved, and now he just wants to return to the mountains and forests with Qiao Ying and live a peaceful life." Zhou Yu replied.

Zhou Yu's words have all been said to this point, and everyone will not persuade them anymore, and it will be easy to offend people if they persuade again.

"Since Gong Jin has made up his mind, Ben Hou will approve it!" Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief after speaking.
