Chapter 229 Annunciation

Zhou Yu leaned leaning against the soft couch beside the case, looking at the endless waves outside the window frame, silent.

Compared to the wide cabin, the windows look a little smaller, and when the sun rises, you can't see it. But Zhou Yu remembers that when he got up this morning, he saw that the rising sun was white and there was a blood-red halo around him.

According to some people who are familiar with the Five Elements Catastrophe, seeing this situation is a sign of life-threatening death. Zhou Yu did not really believe in this so-called "secret theory of the ancestors", but this morning, he saw such a sun rising and falling at the end of the waves, and suddenly felt restless and dizzy, and could not even continue his breathing.

Fortunately, I can’t see it now. If I can’t see it, there is no need to think about it or worry.

Zhou Yu leaned back and made himself more comfortable to lean on.

In the past few days, the water and land army of our side are still confronting the Jingzhou army. We have to admit that Liu Bei's use of troops is really old, and his side has tried many times but failed to catch any of their flaws. Fortunately, Cheng Pu in Jiangxia, Lu Meng in Jiangling, Gan Ning and others have already launched an attack on Gong'an City as required. Calculate the time, and they should have fought at Gong'an City yesterday.

Early this morning, Zhou Yu sent a large number of men to publicize the news of the Wu army crossing the river to the Jingzhou army on multiple occasions to shake their military morale. With the progress of the war in the direction of the public security, updates will be made every day afterwards. I wonder how long the Jingzhou army can be stable.

Just as he was thinking, the hatch door was suddenly pushed open.

A gust of cold wind blew in from the cabin door, causing Zhou Yu to shudder. The servant who opened the door hurriedly closed the cabin door.

"What's the matter?" Zhou Yu asked.

"The subordinates of Duke Xuande, General Zuo is a member of the Central Lang Jian Yong, who is seeking a meeting."

"Jian Yong?"

The attendant replied respectfully: "Yes."

Zhou Yu thought for a moment and asked, "The two armies are confronting each other. What are the officials of General Zuo's Mansion here? Zhongyi, what do you think?"

It turned out that General Fenwei, who was appointed Zhou Yu's deputy by Marquis Wu, had been sitting in the cabin quietly. Hearing Zhou Yu's question, he hesitated and replied: "Our army is in a big way, and Duke Xuande will not dare to fight for a long time. Maybe this person comes to us and ask for peace?"

Zhou Yu smiled: "Liu Bei is a strong hero. If you want him to give in, it is probably not that easy..."

But he understood that Sun Yu was a mediocre person, and with his eyes, he could not explain any meaningful analysis. So he said to the servant who came to report: "Pang Shiyuan comes here first."

A moment later, Pang Tong came with the servant.

As soon as he entered the cabin, he asked, "Governor, why is Jian Yong and Jian Xianhe outside?"

Zhou Yu had already asked someone to take off the soft couch and sit on the table with his elbow. After hearing Pang Tong's question, he said, "Shi Yuan, do you recognize him?"

"I met once. Jian Xianhe was the person under the command of Duke Xuande, who was responsible for running around. When he was in Xinye, he often traveled to and from all over Jingzhou. This king is currently the Left General and works as the Central Army. Duke Xuande went south to work as the Tang Dynasty. He stayed in the public security with Zhuge Liang." Pang Tong replied.

Liu Bei's subordinates came from the police... Zhou Yu nodded, suppressed his vague uneasiness, and said to the servant: "Go and call Jian Yong in."

Not long after, a middle-aged scholar came in respectfully.

Because of the obvious hostility with Liu Bei, the so-called Sun-Liu alliance has almost become waste paper, so Zhou Yu did not stand up to greet him. Jian Yong did not care about it, and he treated him with a courtesy manner. When he looked up, he still had a smile on his face and looked joyous.

Such behavior must be Su Qin, Zhang Yi and others. It seems that Liu Bei is really unable to deal with anything on the battlefield and wants to make profits with his words. Zhou Yu thought about this, and felt a little contempt in his heart, waiting for Jian Yong to pass the ceremony before saying, "Please get up."

He did not exchange greetings and condolences, and then said, "Mr. Xianhe came here without hesitation. I don't know if it was ordered by Xuande Gong or Kong Ming? I don't know if there is anything to tell you, or if there is any request?"

Jian Yong smiled and said, "This time I came from the police. Before I could see my lord, I will first announce the good news to General Zhou."

"Report good news?"

“That’s right.”

"Where does the joy come from?"

"A few days ago, the wind was strong and the waves were high on the river. Thousands of General Cheng's troops under the command of Wu Hou flew to the Gong'an City along the water. Although General Cheng had left later, thousands of subordinates were now in time for us to contain them. Now the list is recorded here, please read it. If it is correct, I will send him back to Jiangdong in the future."

Speaking of this, Sun Yu, who was sitting on Jian Yong's head, was shocked for a moment and accidentally dropped the cup on the cabin.

As the cups rolled, Jian Yong talked jokingly: "Although the soldiers encountered disasters and their lives were not hindered, isn't it a rare happy event? Therefore, my military advisor ordered our police to come overnight to announce the good news to General Zhou first; then go back and ask my lord to issue an order to reward the meritorious general Lei Yuan, the general Wei Yan and others."

Zhou Yu's face turned pale, and his eyes were frighteningly cold: "A few days ago, the wind and waves were high on the river?"

“That’s right.”

"Thousands of General Cheng's troops drifted to the police city?"

"That's right." Jian Yong smiled with a sincere smile.

In such a defeat, Cheng Demou's notice had not arrived yet, and the envoy from Gong'an City came first.

Zhou Yu felt a suffocation in his chest and wanted to say something, but he couldn't raise his breath for a moment.

Fortunately, Pang Tong spoke in time to hold on to the scene: "I also heard that the wind on the river has been strong recently. I am afraid that many soldiers of our side will float across the river in batches. I hope that Kong Ming can be properly placed one by one, so as not to be in a hurry."

"That's nature, that's nature!" Jian Yong smiled so that the thin wrinkles on his face were tangled into a group: "The Sun and Liu families are in alliances, and watching over each other is the responsibility of their allies. When the subordinates of the Marquis of Wu were in danger, the subordinates of Xuandegong could rescue him, so they naturally had to rescue him wholeheartedly. To be honest, there are thousands of troops set out from Jiangling, and now they have also floated to the city of Gong'an. Our General Lei Yuan and General Wei Yan are ready to initiate rescue at any time."

Pang Tong laughed: "Wu Hou raised an army of 100,000 to attack Shu this time, and all the troops went up the river at any time. At this time, it would be great to have Kong Ming, who cares about the alliance like this. When I arrive at the Public Security City in the future, I will definitely thank Kong Ming in person."

"It's OK! It's OK!" Jian Yong said repeatedly: "Mr. Shi Yuan, please rest assured. It doesn't matter if there are more people or less. As long as your soldiers arrive, we will do our best to help... After all, we are an alliance, and the military advisor will never be stingy with help."

Speaking of this, he suddenly turned his ear and listened: "Everyone, listen!"

The sound of waves came into the cabin, and there were also loud sounds of blowing and singing. The sound was melodious and melodious, and it was actually very pleasant.

"What's going on?" Pang Tong suddenly changed his color.

"My military advisor has long been aware of Zhou Lang's good at music, so he specially sent a team of singers to accompany him. They are now playing and singing at the gate of your naval camp to praise the alliance between us and our families. Of course, they also boast about the deeds of helping your soldiers. We are sincerely happy about this, and it is inevitable that we can sing and dance... I hope that the governor of Zhou, General Sun, and Mr. Shiyuan will all feel our joy."

The bullshit joy! Pang Tong was so angry that he trembled all over. He didn't want to talk well for a while, he just wanted to jump up and point at Jian Yong's nose and scold him. But he must not be so rude, so he could only look at Sun Yu in front of him.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu recovered from his spirit. He kept sitting in a posture of supporting his chin and said in a deep voice: "We have truly realized Kong Ming's kindness and Mr. Xianhe's hard work, and there will be rewards in the future. Mr. Xianhe, please go back."

"Okay." Jian Yong did not delay, responded, and then retreated.

Pang Tong accompanied Jian Yong to leave, watched him change into a boat, floated out of the main gate of the Water Village before turning back.

After looking at Zhou Yu, Pang Tong sighed: "This Jian Xianhe is really cunning... His voice is like the Sun-Liu Alliance is still there..."

Zhou Yu calmed down his eyes and then whispered for a while: "The Sun-Liu Alliance is indeed still there, and he is right."
