In May of the 15th year of Jian'an, the Han Prime Minister Cao Cao personally led a large army to Liu Biao, the governor of Jingzhou in the south, entered Wancheng in July, and met with General Yangwu and Zhang Xiu, the prefect of Nanyang. Soon due to the heat, the epidemic was rampant. Cao's army temporarily stopped at the foot of the Green Forest Mountain, and continued until winter, and began to advance towards Liu Biao's base camp Xiangyang.

However, at this time, Jing Yang had already joined forces, and Zhou Yu led 30,000 troops along the Yangtze River to advance eastward to support Liu Biao. Cao Cao was forced to draw troops from all over the Central Plains to move south one after another, with a total of up to 200,000. He wanted to fight Liu Biao, Zhou Yu fought in the Han River Basin. Then Zhou Yu took Liu Biao hostage, gave up Xiangyang, and retreated south to Jiangling. Although Cao Cao had Xiangyang, he was just an empty city, which instead increased the pressure on his own logistics transportation.

At the beginning of the following year, a battle at Jiangling City, Zhou Yu burned Cao's camp. Cao Cao was forced to abandon Jiangling and turned to the capital of Xiling County of Jiangxia County. In February, Zhou Yu urged Cao's army to defeat the city of Xiling. Seeing that his morale was low and his food was insufficient, Cao Cao had no choice but to order his troops to return.

If the war ended here, it would be almost a replica of the "Battle of Red Cliffs" in history. The reason for this is that under the instigation of the wings of the little butterfly, Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao's forces in advance, and even entered Liaodong, destroyed Gongsun, and sent Lu Bu to Dingliangzhou to temporarily ensure the safety of the flanks. The training of soldiers and the accumulation of food and fodder are not comparable to that of another time and space. In addition, the alliance of Sun Quan and Liu Biao was looser than that of Sun Quan and Liu Bei. The two families each had a large number of surrender factions, which made it difficult for Zhou Yu to do his best.

There are other factors that restrict the end of this battle, such as Chen Deng's death, Taishici guarding Huainan, Lu Su built a navy in Pengli, Cao Cao did not gather the surrendered soldiers of Jingzhou who were indifferent, etc. To put it bluntly, he could only plan and win a thousand miles. This battle was five years ahead of the original history, and the accumulation of the Northern Army was greater than that of the Southern Army, so he could not defeat even if he was defeated.

But what is interesting is that although the main battlefield is in Jingxiang, the final result is a idler thousands of miles away - Xun led the Youzhou Navy to the south, harass the Wuhui, and forced Sun Quan to summon Zhou Yu. Once Zhou Yu retreated, Huang Zu could not support him alone. He then surrendered to Cao Cao in Jiangxia, but Cao Cao's great dragon was overthrown, and he gained a corner, which brought back many advantages in the overall market. Therefore, Cao Cao did not lose all the way back to Xudu, just like in history, but barely played the victory drum and claimed to be the Khai team.

The inside was not lost, and he had face. Although Prime Minister Cao felt regretful, his mood was not very bad on his way back to Beijing. Seeing that he was about to arrive in Xudu, Xi Lu came to report to Cao Cao. He said that the emperor planned to welcome him in person. Cao Cao said that he was humble in his words, but he was quite helpful in his heart.

At this moment, a quick horse suddenly sent Lu Su's urgent letter. Cao Cao opened the letter and looked at it. Suddenly his eyebrows were raised, his eyes were bloodshot, and he shouted: "You thief dared to hear me!"

What news did Lu Su report to Cao Cao? It turned out that Zhou Yu returned to the army and was stabbed by Sun Yang, his brother, Sun Quan!

After passing Jiangling and Xiling City, Cao Cao hated Zhou Yu for two battles. He thought to himself that when I reorganized my troops, he could leave Jiangling alone and take Jiangdong directly, and compete with the younger generation! Since the rebellion, he has never fought such an ugly battle. He was simply played with by Zhou Yu. Whether it is strategic planning, battle dispatch, or tactical use, Zhou Gongjin is a master of the world. If he cannot urge him to break it in person, how can he eliminate the hatred in my heart?!

But unexpectedly, Zhou Yu died at the hands of "his own people". Cao Cao didn't feel any joy at all, but instead was filled with anger and felt very regretful - I was so angry that I just died with the halo of defeating Cao. I can't make up for this situation anymore. It's tolerant, but who is unbearable!

In the letter, Lu Su said that he had secretly sent people to lobby Sun Hao since he had been trying to seize power and was alienated by Sun Quan after his failure, that was a great opportunity for us to divide Jiangdong. Cao Cao knew about this, and Lu Zijing certainly reported it. Cao Cao also promised that if Sun Hao surrendered, he could transfer Sun Ben's position as the governor of Yangzhou to him and grant him the title of General, Tinghou and even county marquis. Lu Su used it to lure Sun Hao, but Sun Hao was quite moved, but he could not find a suitable opportunity. He had only more than 2,000 soldiers and horses at his hands, and he was transferred out of his heart. Even if he had a rebellion, he could not shake Sun Quan's rule. If he crossed the river and threw himself into Cao, he would have no merit, and he was afraid that Cao Cao would not keep his promise, and if he was given the position of governor of Yangzhou, he would have a blank title.

This time Zhou Yu retreated his troops and returned to Wuhui. Lu Su sent someone to inform Sun Hao again, saying that the opportunity had come. If you could take this army out of the road, are you still worried that Sun Quan would not be destroyed? "Su hopes that the general will enter Wu." Of course, Lu Su did not give much hope for Sun Hao, nor did he believe that he could seize the 30,000 troops from the east and west of the Yangtze River, but if he wanted to make some trouble, he might make a profit from it.

Unexpectedly, Sun Hao was crazy and even asked Zhou Yu to have a banquet. He persuaded Zhou Gongjin to surrender during the banquet. Zhou Yu refused. In anger, Sun Hao simply threw a cup as a trumpet, and the ambushed soldiers came out, and directly took Zhou Yu's life. He then seized Zhou Yu's seal and ribbon to receive the troops. He did not expect that at this time, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and other veterans had long refused to obey Zhou Yu's orders, and ignored them and continued to return east. Zhou Yu had not returned to the boat for a long time, but saw someone taking the seal and ribbon to ask to hand over the troops to commander Sun Hao. Dong Xi, He Qi, Zhou Tai and other generals all had suspicions. Soon the two sides clashed in Chungu County. Sun Hao was defeated and wanted to cross the river and surrender to Lu Su, but was caught by Dong Xi and directly knocked over his boat. The general of Dingwu of the Eastern Wu was drowned alive.

When Lu Su heard the news, he quickly informed Cao Cao. Cao Cao was so angry when he saw the letter - of course he couldn't blame Lu Su. Lu Zijing stood on his own position and wanted to disrupt the enemy. Not only did he fail, but he also made contributions. Besides, Lu Su didn't ask Sun Hao to kill Zhou Yu. He was full of resentment and sneered on Sun Hao's head: "If he doesn't drown, my car will break it!"

By the way, he took his anger at Sun Quan: "The Sun family is all wolf and jackal, so I'm sorry that Gongjin doesn't know his master!" Didn't I have the chance to fish out Sun Hao's body from the Yangtze River and the car was broken? It doesn't matter, I can kill Sun Quan and Sun Hao's big brothers!

Cao Cao's good mood was instantly overwhelmed. He immediately returned to Xudu with a stern face, which made the emperor Liu Xie, who came to the suburbs to welcome him, feel uneasy. Liu Xie heard that the Prime Minister's southern expedition appeared to have won half of the Nanjun and the entire Jiangxia, but in fact, the loss of soldiers and generals was almost worth the loss. He was secretly happy at the beginning. This mood could be hidden from others, but it could not be hidden from the queen Fu and father-in-law Fu Wan, brother-in-law Fu Dian, brother-in-law Fu De--it was not the ones who leaked some information that made the Prime Minister not give me a good look, right?

After Liu Xie returned to the palace, he cried to his wife, saying that Cao Cao's power was getting stronger and stronger, and he might destroy me one day... "You have a precedent for looking at the old history. Can the abolishing emperor survive?"

He was like earth behind him and replied, "I'm afraid I can't live..." From the end of the Han Dynasty, although history is not long, there are many precedents: First, Liu Hong, the late Emperor of the Western Han Dynasty, killed Lu for the court officials. When he welcomed Xiaowen, he slandered him for not being the parent and child of Emperor Hui, and directly killed him; then Liu Ying and Wang Mang usurped the throne, and he was imprisoned at the age of five, and later killed by Li Song; finally, Liu Bian, King Hongnong, and Dong Zhuo sent Li Ru to a glass of poison wine...

These are all the same dynasty. If the dynasty is really changed, will the deposed emperor still not die?

It is really OK. In the original history, after Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, he generously put Liu Xie under house arrest and kept it under house arrest until his old age. The ending was not very bad. The problem was that the emperor had to survive in a change of dynasty and the emperor was deposed. Liu Xie was the first one (Liu Ying was reluctant to do so, but the world was in chaos soon, and he wanted to survive but could not survive). At this time, he could not imagine that he had the final luck. So the couple hugged their heads and cried bitterly. After Fuhou, who was troublesome and filial, he wrote a letter to tell his father that he was scared that Fuwan was sick and did not dare to go to court for more than a month.

Besides, the news of Zhou Yu's murder reached Wujun. Sun Jing, who was so shocked that she was already living in seclusion, went to Sun Quan's door to kneel down and apologized. Sun Quan hurried out and helped Sun Jing up, saying that uncle is not your business, and I will not take my anger on my brothers next to him. But he immediately ordered the name of Sun Yang to be deleted from the genealogy, and he was not allowed to be surnamed Sun from now on. Whenever he talked about it, he said "Evil Yang".

Then Sun Quan set up a large mourning hall, personally guarded Zhou Yu's sacrifice, and cried like tears in front of the ministers. Sun Quan was not artificial. Thinking about Sun Ce's death, Sun Ting wanted to be in chaos, Zhang Zhao was the leader inside, and Zhou Yu was in charge of military power outside. If one of these two people refused to protect themselves, he would never have the chance to sit on the throne of Wu Hou. In terms of emotion, he was certainly not as good as his brother, and could be in love with Zhou Yu, but from the perspective of political interests, especially at this critical moment, I really couldn't lose Zhou Gongjin!

Is it that heaven wants to destroy my Sun family?

Zhang Zhao came to pay tribute and cried in a mournful and mournful manner - although he and Zhou Yu had different political ideas, they had no selfish grudges. Moreover, they had been with Zhou Yu for many years, and Zhou Yu was always in front of "Zhang Gong" and "Zhang Gong" after his respectful attitude. Zhang Zibu couldn't bear to see him ending like this. But feelings belong to feelings, and state affairs are state affairs. Then Zhang Zhao wiped his tears and advised Sun Quan, saying that Gongjin was killed, just like a beam and pillar collapsed, and the building would collapse. You should make up your mind to send a tribute to the court and express your obedience.

Sun Quan was about to agree, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others stopped doing it, saying that Gongjin's words were still in his ears. Now that the bones were not cold, lord, do you have the heart to betray his ideas? Even though Gongjin was dead, we will not allow Cao thieves to be involved in Jiangdong!

The two sides almost started arguing in the mourning hall, and finally jumped out to be a peacemaker, saying that we can both send the lord and not send the lord - the lord's brothers cannot be sent to Xudu, we can send the lord brothers. Aren't Sun Tung's younger brothers all suitable candidates?

Finally, he decided to send Sun Jing's fourth son Sun Huan to Xudu as a hostage, and let Cao Cao be perfunctory for the time being. Cao Cao was honest and unceremonious, so he put Sun Huan in prison. He would arrest the other brothers and kill them together to avenge Zhou Yu! (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better and faster!
