Zhou Yu's political wisdom is far beyond his colleagues back then.

Except for the time when Sun Ce led his troops to the funeral after his death, he almost never took the initiative to return to Jiangdong. He would communicate with Sun Quan a long time in advance before returning, and said that he would only bring a few people to avoid affecting his relationship with Sun Quan.

Before Pan Zhang died in battle, Nanjun was lonely. Zhou Yu and Sun Quan used the Yangtze River water transportation letters for a long time. Even at this moment, Zhou Yu did not return to meet Sun Quan. He knew that his prestige was too great, and his appearance would inevitably steal a lot of Sun Quan's limelight, which made the young Jiangdong lord who had just lost the battle in Hefei.

But this time, Zhou Yu actually came directly on the boat without notifying anyone. When Sun Quan's subordinates informed him, Zhou Yu had already disembarked and entered Jingkou City.

"How many people did he bring?" Sun Quan said in shock, and even subconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand.

"Go back to Supreme, Governor Zhou only brought ten people."

"Ten people." Sun Quan then breathed a sigh of relief, and found that he was thinking too much just now.

He calmed down and quickly called someone to welcome him out to meet this big brother who was very dedicated to his merits.

Although Zhou Yu was already very low-key, his return still attracted the attention of the civil and military officials in the city. Almost all the officials in Jingkou put down all their work, either welcomed them out of the city or stopped to watch, and welcomed the hero's return.

This grand scene allowed Sun Quan to truly see Zhou Yu's prestige. This Confucian general who has been standing in Jiangdong for many years has accumulated enough reputation. He was on par with his elder brother back then, and after his elder brother died, his prestige was indeed worse than Zhou Yu.

The Sun Quan family can stand tall in Jiangdong not only because of its fame and reputation, but only because of the powerful soldiers of Sun Jian, Sun Ce and Sun Quan. The fierce generals are ruthless and able to fight.

For this moment, Sun Quan seemed to see Zhou Yu's gloomy face, waved his army to surround him, and took away everything his hard work occupied.

Fortunately, Zhou Yu stopped a dozen feet away from him, untied the long sword around him and handed it to the servants beside him, and slowly bowed to the ground.

"Zhou Yu, pay homage to the Supreme."

Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief, quickly walked up to him, squeezed out a happy look, and was about to greet Zhou Yu.

But then, the smile on his face instantly frozen.

In my memory, Zhou Yu, who was full of elegance and charming style, is now haggard and withered. In his thirties, he has no blood on his face, and is somewhat abnormally sallow, and his lips are even more purple and blue, making Sun Quan unable to help but exclaim:

"Gongjin, Gongjin, you are, what's wrong with you?"

Zhou Yu's concubine Xiao Qiao supported Zhou Yu's arm, and two lines of clear tears slowly dropped from her beautiful face, which was particularly pitying.

Zhou Yu stared into Sun Quan's eyes and tried his best to force out a bitter smile:

"Zhongmou, can you talk about something privately?"

"Of course, that's fine. Hurry up, help Gongjin into the house!"

·

Zhou Yu was seriously injured in the battle to attack Jiangling. Sun Quan thought that he had improved after a certain amount of care, but Zhou Yu's current appearance really made him speechless.

He led Zhou Yu into his study, closed the door with his own hands, and told Chen Wu to guard the door himself, and even Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong and even any of his relatives were not allowed to approach.

Zhou Yu's face turned pale, and just sitting down slowly straightening his back made him breathe rapidly, which seemed extremely painful.

Sun Quan personally gave him a cup of hot water and brought it to Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu waved his hand and said quickly:

"I haven't had enough time and I'm going to see Bo Fu soon."

Sun Quan's mind buzzed, and he was a little confused for a moment.

Although he was afraid of Zhou Yu's power, he never thought about what to do after this elder brother left him.

"No, Gongjin, don't talk nonsense, don't talk nonsense, I, I have already hired a famous doctor, I will definitely..."

"Life and death have fate, not something that people can force." Zhou Yu interrupted Sun Quan and said with difficulty, "If I want to say it, Zhongmou, please don't interrupt me."

"Okay, you say, you say."

Only then did Sun Quan realize that Zhou Yu's name had changed to Zhongmou again, and his heart trembled again. He gently clenched Zhou Yu's palm and waited to listen to his story.

“There is one big thing, because it’s too secret, I’ve never said it before.

The general of Cao's army, Yunshan, is Guan Ping..."

"Ah!" Sun Quan was shocked.

Ignoring Sun Quan's terrified eyes, Zhou Yu continued:

"This matter is quite secret and must be kept confidential.

Only me, Bo Yan and Liu Bei's army, know about this matter, and Zhongmou must not make any public statement in the future. This person's identity is related to our success or failure.

This time I received a message from Guan Ping that Cao thief was about to fight the west, so I came to report the news in person, Supreme, must keep the secret!"

Sun Quan nodded silently, digesting the extremely terrifying news.

Yunshan is Guan Ping. So, he killed Pan Zhang before?

Sun Quan loved Pan Zhang very much and liked Pan Zhang's crazy and dared to offend people.

After hearing that Pan Zhang was killed by Cao's general Yunshan, Sun Quan was furious and ordered Zhou Yu to lead his army to take revenge many times, but Zhou Yu kept looking for various reasons to shirk it.

Later, Yunshan occupied Jiangling under Zhou Yu's nose. Sun Quan realized that this person might be the one Zhou Yu was trapped, so he temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart.

Unexpectedly, this person was Guan Ping!

Guan Ping!

OK, I will tell you where this Yunshan came from, why do you have such ability to turn your hands into clouds and rain, and come and go freely in Jingxiang.

Although Sun Quan's military ability is not very good, he has already achieved great success in power and quickly understood Guan Ping's value.

With this person, Sun and Liu could gain a lot of military intelligence during the Northern Expedition in the future. At the critical moment, Guan Ping suddenly turned against him, which could even cause a fatal blow to Cao Cao.

Sun Quan was quite happy, but he immediately thought that Guan Ping was a loyal fan of Liu Bei and was even more the chosen one who could go to the chosen one thousand years later.

This made him feel quite unhappy and kept silent for a moment.

Zhou Yu did not feel Sun Quan's unhappiness. He endured the pain and continued: "Now Guan Ping has controlled most of Jingzhou, and Cao's army is completely unable to threaten us in Jingzhou.

If Liu Bei wants to attack Yizhou, he will definitely not fight with us.

Now is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us to use Guan Ping to convey the message. We can take advantage of Cao Cao and Liu Bei’s battle and immediately lead the army northward to occupy the two Huaihe Rivers, Xuzhou, and the Central Plains have no dangers to defend, and the world can be settled!"

Although Zhou Yu was sick, his voice was still loud when he spoke.

Sun Quan couldn't help but applaud, but when he remembered Zhou Yu's condition, he couldn't help but lower his head.

"Zhongmou, don't be sad." Zhou Yu's face, full of illness, showed a trace of firmness again. Although his life was losing little by little, the Confucian general was still bold and slowly showed a firm smile. "I, Bo Fu, Ziyi and others, fought together in Jiangdong, and fought hard for so many years, and finally had a chance to take a break."

"The only regret I have not seen my Jiangdong children break through the Central Plains and change the world - Zhongmou, you have to promise me one thing."

"Don't worry, Gongjin, your affairs are behind you..."

"I'm not talking about this." Zhou Yu smiled bitterly, "You have to promise me that you must not turn against Liu Bei before you break through the Central Plains!"

"What, what?"

Zhou Yu had proposed to kidnap Liu Bei and control Liu Bei's men to fight. Sun Quan did not expect that when Zhou Yu was dying, he would definitely agree to this matter.

Why is this happening?

Although Sun Quan has never had the intention to turn against Liu Bei, although Sun Quan has always believed that only when the two join forces can there be a future.

But when Zhou Yu talks about this, Sun Quan always feels strange.

"Liu Bei, too, a hero.

If he was killed, he could help Zhongmou win the world, I would definitely not hesitate to start.

But even if Liu Bei occupied Yizhou and divided Jingzhou equally with us, the Central Plains was still not something we could fight against."

"If you want to turn against Liu Bei, at least you have to wait for Liu Bei to take Yongliang and our army occupy the Central Plains and Xuzhou.

At that time, we can rely on the Central Plains to connect Cao Cao who retreated to Hebei and Liu Bei to fight again, so that we can achieve the supreme cause.

If I had done it before, I would have to settle down in a corner and never get involved in the world!"

Zhou Yu said, the expression on his face became more and more painful. Sun Quan had no time to argue with Zhou Yu. He supported Zhou Yu with great worries and let him lie down slowly. Tears finally couldn't help but burst out.

Sun Quan, who was getting older, had already had some suspicion about Zhou Yu, but a generation of famous generals was about to die. Sun Quan could not help but remember the passionate years of following Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, who were full of passion to compete for Jiangdong.

Although those years were hard, they were particularly warm to think about now, but the people who fought together had already left them one by one.

The eldest brother is gone, and now Zhou Yu... is leaving too.

"After I leave, please give my part to Zijing.

If Zijing has the talent of Wang Zuo, he will be able to correct his country.

And, and…” Zhou Yu’s mouth was slowly oozing out of his blood, and he said in pain:

"Also, Bo Yan! Bo Yan has great talent, and this person is far above me, so he will definitely be able to assist Zhong Tomb in Daxing Jiangdong.

The dispute between the east, south and north of the Yangtze River depends on this person to bridge it. Zhongmou, Zhongmou must never suspect this person.”

After returning to Jiangdong, Lu Yi offered advice to Sun Quan many times, preparing to take out Lu Xun's pseudonym, imitate Huo Jun, go behind the enemy to fight guerrillas and establish a base.

However, Sun Quan had already had some suspicions about Lu Yi before. After Pan Zhang's death, Sun Quan was even more dissatisfied with Lu Yi and kept looking for various reasons to refuse.

When Zhou Yu was dying, he actually recommended Lu Gong. His expectations for him were so high that Sun Quan never expected it.

He nodded slowly and sighed:

"I understand, I will use the mainland discussion in the future.

But what afterwards? Gongjin, should I fight for Hefei or Guangling? You want to..."

Sun Quan said, but Zhou Yu, who was lying on the ground, had no sound.

Sun Quan was stunned and slowly explored Zhou Yu's breath.

After a long time, Sun Quan slowly lowered his head and stared blankly at Zhou Yu's face that had recovered from peace.

The handsome face was still the same, and the fatigue of years of hard work finally returned to zero at this moment. The Confucian general ended his short and grand life and finally returned to his many years of comrades. Sun Quan felt mixed feelings and could only retreat a little and salute slowly to Zhou Yu.

"Gongjin, go with peace of mind."

"Cao Thief actually dares to fight the west... OK, I'll meet him this time!"

"Last time, our army had few soldiers and it was difficult to defeat Hefei.

But this time it’s different. I... I trained a large army of 100,000. If the thief Cao dared to leave, I would break Luoyang!
Chapter completed!
