At Gushi, there was a sound of toasts and huts in the back hall of the county government office.

"Brother Cheng Hansheng helps, our army can do our best this time!" I raised the wine in my hand and said gratefully to Huang Zhong on the opposite side.

After receiving the news of Yu Jin's surrender, I rode lightly to Gushi. One was to celebrate the victory of the war, and also to express my gratitude to Huang Zhong.

"What did the Right General say?" Huang Zhong waved his hand and said modestly, "As an alliance, our two families should have helped each other.

Moreover, during the civil strife in Jingzhou the last time, fortunately, the emperor's uncle helped him quickly to quell the war. From the Lord Mu of Jingzhou, all the soldiers and civilians were grateful.

Besides, Huang actually failed to help in this battle. Most of the Yu Jin bandits were defeated by your army. We only put in some meager strength and really dare not be the right general thanked!"

"Brother Han Sheng is too disgusting! If the army of the army quickly cut off Yu Jin's retreat, the thief would most likely escape, so he would work hard to travel hundreds of miles to support him. Zhang and his brother should thank him.

"I shook my head and laughed and said, "Brother Hansheng, we are all warriors. If you are polite, I won't say much. I'll have a good time!"

"Thank you General!" Huang Zhong raised his hand and put on the wine.

"All the masters, please drink this cup!" I raised my title and prayed to everyone in the hall, and then drank it all first.

"General Xie (right general)!"

...

After three rounds of drinking, Huang Zhong had a little drunkenness on his face, and his conversation started to become more talkative. During his conversation, Huang Zhong expressed great appreciation for Lu Xun's talent.

In fact, Huang Zhong and Lu Xun had never met before this encirclement and suppression of Yu Jin.

But in this short ten days of joint battle, Huang Zhong showed a strong interest in this young man who was over 12 years old.

However, Lu Xun was indeed praised by Huang Zhong. Facing the Cao army's general Yu Jin who has experienced many battles, Lu Xun showed his calmness and calmness. He is definitely worthy of his reputation as the "Four Heroes of Eastern Wu" in history.

From being discovered by me and attracted to the government, Lu Xun has grown from a young man in Wuzhong to an outstanding military commander in just three years.

Seeing my approving look, Lu Xun's face, which was so calm that it was not consistent with his age, showed a slightly green smile.

.

After the meal ended, I summoned Wei Yan, Li Tong, and Lu Xun together.

"Wen Chang, Wen Da. Bo Yan, Wen An, thank you for your hard work this time.

I will immediately submit the achievements of all the soldiers going to the war!" After hearing that Wei, Li and Lu described their respective battles, I nodded and comforted the people.

"Bo Yan's contribution this time is the most important thing!" Wei Yan said with a smile, "No matter how hard that bastard Ren Yujin is, he can't get rid of Bo Yan's plan."

"General Wen Chang praised it!" Lu Xun maintained his usual gentle and humble attitude and said with a faint smile. "In fact, Xun just grasped Yu Jin's personality and his situation!"

"Boyan is good at knowing his opponent, and he can also know himself. He has the resources of famous generals!" I praised with a smile.

"General..." Li Tong's face, which had always been resolute, showed a look of embarrassment and said hesitantly.

"Wenda, what's wrong? What's the matter? But it's okay to say it. No one here is outsiders!" Although I was curious about Li Tong's expression, I still slowed down and said.

"General, can you spare your life too much..." Hesitated for a moment. Li Tong still said it.

"Yeah!" I knew that Li Tong and Yu Jin had a certain friendship in the past. It would be abnormal to use Li Tong's human nature to not plead for Yu Jin. Of course, I actually did not intend to take Yu Jin's life.

Yu Jin, in terms of military talent, would definitely be counted even under the command of Cao Cao, who is famous for his military service. He is particularly good at training troops. If he can surrender him, even if he cannot go to the battlefield, he can still train his soldiers in the rear.

"Wenda, let's go and see Yu Jin in the future!"

"Yes, General!"

"The war in Luling seems to be a little tight. I don't know if it is necessary to reinforce troops from Jiangbei." Turning around, I explained to Wei Yan and Lu Xun, "Wen Chang, Bo Yan, you will go back to the camp to rectify the troops later.

We will return to Yangzhou early tomorrow morning!"

…………

.

When Li Tong and I came to Yu Jin, he was sitting in front of the lamp in a daze, and even Li Tong and I arrived without even realizing it. It was obvious that his current mental state was not very good.

After being dismissed, Lu Xun did not make any trouble, but just put him under house arrest in a military tent. There were no soldiers on patrol sites around the military tent, only dozens of archers lurking beside him.

After waiting for Li Tong and I to sit down, Yu Jin raised his head mechanically.

"General Zhang You..." Yu Jin wanted to get up, but I stopped him.

"General Yu, you and I haven't met each other for several years, so I don't want to meet again here!" The last time I saw Yu Jin, it seemed that I was in Runan.

Yu Jin smiled bitterly, said nothing, just lowered his head.

"General Yu, what are your plans in the future?"

He looked up at me, but Yu Jin was not angry at all: "Yu Jin is already a prisoner, and he wants to kill and cut him, it is up to General Zhang to decide."

"Wen is in his prime, and he is very prosperous and strong. He is the time to make achievements and conceal his future generations. Isn't it a pity to say that he is willing to die at this moment?" According to the original historical description of the forbidden, he should be a person with a strong sense of accomplishment. Such people generally will not eventually choose to die unless they have to.

When Yu Jin heard what I said, there was a slight fluctuation in an instant, but he quickly returned to the silence of death.

"Wenze..." Li Tong called out the word Yu Jindi gently, and then his lips trembled slightly, and he couldn't even say a word.

Yu Jin looked at Li Tong and said nothing sarcastic. He just smiled bitterly, "Wenda, I don't blame you, but I'm different from you..."

Li Tong lowered his head and smiled bitterly.

Although Yu Jin did not say the complete words. I could probably guess the meaning of it. Yu Jin said that it was not a fault for Li Tong for not letting him escape, but he could not choose to surrender like Li Tong.

The reason for this is probably largely related to family members. When Li Tong surrendered, his family members were all in Shouchun; but Yu Jin's family members were all under Cao Cao's rule...

"General!" Li Tong turned his eyes to me, and I comforted Yu Jin knowingly, and then led Li Tong away.

For a moment, I felt Yu Jin staring at my back, but it soon disappeared without a trace.

.

On the way away from the Imperial Guard's tent, Li Tongdi's mood became much lower.

Li Tong is a generalist in military and political affairs (of course, military affairs talents far exceed government affairs talents), and is also a person who values ​​friendship and friendship. On that day, after repeated persuasion by my elder brother, he was moved and agreed to surrender.

But this does not mean that he has completely abandoned Cao Cao's kindness to him, and this is the most rare thing about him.

It would probably be a painful torment for Li Tong and Cao Cao to face his former comrades.

When I returned to Lujiang this time, I still suggested that my elder brother transfer Li Tong from the front line of the battle against Cao.

"Wenda, please be relieved!" I smiled. I comforted Li Tang, "When I return to Lujiang this time, I will ask my elder brother to personally persuade Yu Jin to surrender!"

"Thank you, General!" Li Tong smiled with difficulty.

.

The next morning, our army escorted the prisoners and set off from Gushi to return to Yangzhou.

At the same time, Huang Zhong also led his troops westward to Xiangyang. Since Li Tong still had to assist Jingzhou in defending the threat of Cao Cao in the north, he also returned west with Huang Zhong.

When the army marched to Shou County, the westernmost frontier of Shouchun, one part was divided into two parts, one part followed Wei Yan to continue to march towards Shouchun. The other part was led by Lu Xun, turned south and returned to Lujiang.

And I, with the "captive" Yu Jin, drove to Lujiang first.

.

When I arrived in Lujiang, my elder brother's counterattack against Shi Xie's invasion had also begun.

The elder brother had previously adopted a patient attitude towards Shi Xie's almost unscrupulous northern offensive, one was because of the shortage of troops in Jiangdong. The other was that the crisis in Jiangbei had not yet been eliminated, and the elder brother also had a glimmer of hope for persuading Shi Xie to withdraw his troops.

However, the elder brother's handwritten handwritten letter has been delivered for more than 20 days. According to the time, if the letter is delivered to Jiaozhou as quickly as possible, it will be available in about eleven or two days.

But in fact, the Jiaozhou army's attack on Luling never stopped, which shows that Shi Xie had no intention of stopping. Since the ceremony was not fulfilled, he had to move his troops.

My elder brother is not a person who is bound by things. Once he decides something, he will continue to execute it without hesitation.

After careful discussion with his second brother, Xu Shu, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Yi, Lu Su and others, he was the chief general of the Yangwu Central Army General Lu Meng. He was the chief general of Danyang, Wu, Jiujiang, Yuzhang and Luling, and a total of 23,000 troops were conquered by the five counties of Danyang, Wu, Jiujiang, Yuzhang and Luling, and together with the reinforcements from Jingnan, he fought against the Jiaozhou army.

At the same time, the eldest brother also adopted Zhuge Liang's suggestion and ordered Mao, the prefect of Yue County, to create a big news and pretend to send troops from Yue County to directly attack the hinterland of Jiaozhou, so as to force Shi Xie to return to the army.

Youzhou, Youbeiping County

Yuan Xi sat in his seat with a frustrated expression, his eyes wandering, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"Then the King Wuhuan is really hateful. In the past, we gave him countless gold, silk, food and grass. Today, we asked him to send troops to help, and he would refuse in every way!" Yuan Tan cursed with a blue face.

Guo Tu looked at the two brothers of the Yuan family and sighed silently. At this critical moment of survival, none of the two brothers could be calm and composed. One could only scold his father and mother, and the other was depressed and lost all day long.

It is no wonder that the officials and soldiers below will be disloyal and virtuous.

Since the fall of the Bohai Sea, the two armies of Xiahou Dun and Xiahou Yuan have been compressing the space of the Yuan family in a shape of a pincer and occupying the land of Youzhou. At present, the outermost Dai County has fallen into the hands of Cao's army, and Zhuo County is in danger.

But the Wuhuan reinforcements, who were highly anticipated, could not come...

"It seems that Cao Cao has attacked Wuhuan!" Guo Tu shook his head secretly. At this moment, he deeply felt the helplessness of Shen Pei in the past.

"Say, is there any way to defeat Cao Cao?" Yuan Tan roared angrily in the Chinese martial arts in the hall.

The hall was silent.

Just when Yuan Tan was about to get furious, he hurried to the meeting and said in surprise, "Lord, be overjoyed, be overjoyed! Liu Zhengnan defeated Cao Cao in Xuzhou!"
