Lu Su's meaning is very simple. Gong Jin, you must make reasonable use of Liu Huangshu's troops to reduce the burden on Jiangdong!

Nowadays, Jiangdong is facing too much pressure. Both external and internal burdens need to be reduced, and you can't just carry it.

That guy Guan Ping is right, you are just too pushy and you have to shoulder everything on your own.

"It is risky to use Liu Bei's people to infect Guan County. It is easy to breed tigers and lead to disputes." Zhou Yu also said with emotion:

"Although I often express my disdain for Liu Bei, I am deeply wary of him in my heart.

Liu Bei has been stepped on in the mud several times over the years, but he always gets up again and again.

Zijing, you must know that people like Liu Bei must not be left here, otherwise they will definitely become a serious problem for me in Jiangdong in the future!"

What happened to Liu Bei made it impossible for Zhou Yu not to think of someone.

That is Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty. He also accomplished nothing. He was a small pavilion chief in Sishui that not many people took seriously. He finally achieved great success in his forties or fifties.

Even when he fought against the Overlord Xiang Yu, he won less and lost more.

He was almost suppressed and beaten by Xiang Yu, but in the Battle of Gaixia, Xiang Yu was cut into pieces and Liu Bang became the founding emperor of the Han Dynasty.

Nowadays, the Sun family is also the representative of Jiangdong. His good friend Sun Ceren gave him the nickname Little Overlord, even though Bo Fu has passed away.

But this made Zhou Yu have to doubt that history would repeat itself, so he was extremely repulsive to Liu Bei.

The Han Dynasty has two prosperous times. If it is three prosperous, what will happen to the Sun family in Jiangdong?

Zhou Yu had to believe in such things as luck, and when facing Liu Bei, a deep sense of wariness arose in his heart.

It's as if people from Jiangdong are destined to be restrained by people from the old Liu family.

Although Liu Bei looked kind-hearted, Zhou Yu knew that he was a man with great ambitions.

In the past, when he was in poverty, Liu Bei wanted to help the Han Dynasty but refused to give up. Now Liu Bei is like a dragon trapped in the sea.

After establishing a firm foothold in Jingzhou and having strong troops and horses, the scholars and people of Jingzhou went to welcome him.

Several veterans under his command were even more loyal, including Wu Guan Zhang and Zhao, Wen You Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu and others.

He was getting ready to take off and soar into the sky.

How could Zhou Yu not guard against him?

If Liu Bei were like Liu Biao, would Zhou Yu still be as afraid of him as he is today?

"Gong Jin, don't say this. Uncle Liu Huang will definitely become a serious problem for Cao Cao. It is Cao Cao who should be worried, not you, Gong Jin."

Lu Su hurriedly looked to the side, and after confirming that no one was there, he said: "Gong Jin is the governor of Jiangdong, and his words and deeds will attract the attention of others.

If word gets out from Gong Jin, the alliance between the Sun and Liu families will definitely cease to exist."

"Zijing is too careful."

Zhou Yu didn't care, he was surrounded by his people.

Except for some veterans, others have no good impression of Liu Bei and others.

What's more, Zhou Yu realized that he had lost the opportunity to kill Liu Bei. Liu Bei was really trapped in the sea, so he could only adopt a strategy of prevention and suppression against him.

"As Gong Jin, as the Commander-in-Chief of Jiangdong, it is natural for him to have an overview of the overall situation." Lu Su pinched his beard and said:

"You only see threats, but I also see opportunities and the benefits that Uncle Liu Huang can bring to Jiangdong."

"Oh, if he occupies Nanjun, it will be good for us?"

"Nature has its benefits."

"Heh, tell me, I'll listen to you."

Zhou Yu said casually, ready to hear what Zhuge Liang had to say, and was able to convince Zijing to speak for him.

Lu Su suddenly became energetic and instilled the remarks that were brainwashed by Zhuge Liang and Guan Ping into Zhou Datudu's words carefully, comprehensively and without reservation last night.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhou Dadu said: (???)

Two quarters of an hour later, Zhou Dadu said: (..??_??..)

Three quarters of an hour later, Zhou Dadu said: (￣ε(#￣)

"Heh, it sounds quite reasonable."

Zhou Yu groped his chin and carefully recalled what Zijing had just said.

If these words had come out of Zhuge Liang and Guan Ping's mouth, Zhou Datu might not even have given them the chance to finish them.

But now these words came out of Lu Zijing's mouth, and Zhou Dadudu really listened patiently.

In the heart of the great governor, it is natural to clearly distinguish what is important and what is light.

"If it didn't make sense, would I have gone to such great lengths to say this to Gong Jin?"

Lu Su stroked his beard and smiled: "It seems as if I, a minister, don't care about my lord."

When the word lord was mentioned, Zhou Yu frowned unconsciously and said with emotion:

"The war there, my lord, is not going well. It seems that you want me to send troops for reinforcements."

"Ah?" Hearing this, Lu Su was also surprised:

"Is the city of Hefei really so strong? Even if it is surrounded ten times, my lord cannot conquer it?"

The two battles in Jiangdong were both siege battles.

But if compared with each other, the lord Sun Quan has the advantage.

The city of Hefei is low and the city of Jiangling is tall and solid.

Hefei's garrison was small, and there were ten times the number of Soochow soldiers surrounding the garrison.

The Cao army in Jiangling City was roughly the same strength as the Jiangdong soldiers who besieged them. They had sufficient food, grass and weapons, but Hefei did not have enough food reserves.

Logically speaking, it is time to capture the city at this time. Is Wen Hui, the governor of Yangzhou, so good at defending the city?

Can he defend the city better than the famous general Cao Ren?

Lu Su didn't believe it.

When Cao Jun faced such great pressure, there was no one in Hefei who wanted to surrender to his lord?

Lu Su hoped to hear the news of his lord's victory in conquering Hefei.

This will not only boost the morale of Nanjun soldiers, but also deter the Shanyue instigators in Yangzhou.

Unfortunately, what he heard was that his lord wanted to increase his troops. How could he not be frightened?

Hearing Zijing's question, Zhou Yu was also puzzled:

"I don't understand the situation in Hefei, and my lord has never explained it to me in detail.

But with the lord Taishi Ziyi, Jiang Gongyi, Pan Wengui, Chen Wenlie and other fierce generals by his side, it should be easy to attack the small town of Hefei."

"Then let's take care of the immediate matters first and capture Jiangling City as soon as possible so that we can share our worries."

Lu Su finally settled the matter, but he couldn't explain why.

"Well, what Zijing said makes sense."

The lord took advantage of the great victory to open a second battlefield because he wanted to prove himself. Zhou Yu couldn't point fingers from a distance, otherwise the lord would be unable to come to power.

Moreover, the lord never wrote a letter to Zhou Yu carefully about the difficulties he encountered and so on.

"It's a pity that Cao Ren hasn't moved yet!" Zhou Yu stood up and looked outside the camp: "He is really calm."

"I think he will definitely divide his troops to fight for Yiling City."

Lu Su stroked his beard and said: "Cao Ren has made us nervous for such a long time, which is also a way to paralyze us. He probably also feels that the time has come."

The two opposing sides are both loose on the outside and tight on the inside, secretly preparing for war.

Guan Ping's method really worked. Gong Jin did not refuse. Lu Su sighed with emotion while stroking his beard.

I'm afraid this child's future achievements will be quite high.

Now we can quickly drive Cao's army out of Nanjun and direct the troops towards Xiangyang, so that our lord can strengthen his momentum and respond.

On the south bank of Jingjiang River, Liu Bei’s camp.

Liu Dajiang has followed the Major General's instructions and temporarily replaced water power with horse power. He no longer uses manpower to blow air to the blast furnace, and the efficiency has become higher.

In the past, we didn't have this condition, so we had to work hard manually. Now with the support of the major general, we can use horsepower to greatly improve the air supply capacity.

Sure enough, there are people up there who are really easy to handle!

To a major general, a few horses are nothing, but to a craftsman, it is really a big deal.

"Master Liu." Guan Ping suddenly remembered something: "I remember an old blacksmith told me something about some tips on using coal. Please listen to it for now."

"Well, if you have any requests, Major General, just ask."

Liu Dajiang suddenly realized that the young general had once studied with a blacksmith colleague. He was still an old man. As soon as he heard this, he knew that the blacksmith's skills were not small.

"He said that after putting coal into the blast furnace, when the temperature in the blast furnace reaches a certain level, the coke and some ash left behind will be put into the blast furnace where the iron ore is put."

"May I ask the Major General, what is temperature, what is coke, and what is ash?"
