Chapter 300

Following Zhou Yu's few words, Sun Quan's knot in his heart was completely untied!

Both are allies in the alliance, Cao Cao can send troops to capture Yangzhou from himself, and Liu Bei can shamelessly use the excuse of sending troops to Yizhou to refuse reinforcements. Why can't Sun Quan capture Jiangxia in the name of revenge for killing his father?

What's more, what Zhou Yu said is quite right, the possibility of Cao Cao defeating Meng Chen is very small, but if it can make Cao Cao lose some of Meng Chen's vitality, why not do it!
Taking ten thousand steps back, Mengchen defeated Cao Cao, and the next step must be to capture Jingzhou.

And myself, why can't I take Jingzhou first?

What's more, there is the relationship between Sun Shangxiang and Meng Chen, plus the marriage with Zhao Yun, even if Meng Chen defeats Cao Cao, he will not tear himself apart in a short time.

What Jiangdong lacks most now is time. If he has time to concentrate on development, why not send troops to the Central Plains?

After thinking through all this, Sun Quan's expression eased a lot!

"My lord, it was Zhao Yun who captured Jiang Xia, not us." Zhou Yu returned to his seat after saying this.

I have to say that Zhou Yu's last sentence directly hit the point.

This time Zhao Yun brought three thousand cavalry, and it was Zhao Yun who proposed to attack Jiang Xia.

No matter from which point of view, this is the Xiliang army attacking Jiangxia, not Jiangdong!
"That being the case, order the navy to fully cooperate with Zhao Yun's cavalry to cross the river."

The knot was untied, and Sun Quan followed suit. Zhao Yun brought all cavalry. If he wanted to cross the river and capture Jiangxia, he would not be able to do so without the cooperation of the Soochow navy.

"My lord, you should secretly send troops to follow behind Zhao Yun."

Zhang Zhao got up and added, even though he used the word support, anyone with a discerning eye could clearly understand the meaning of this sentence.

Zhao Yun opened the way ahead, and once Jiang Xia was captured, the Jiangdong Army following behind would be able to take over smoothly.

Anyway, what Zhao Yun said, Jiang Xia will give it to the old lady as a congratulatory gift.

As Jiangdong's top management reached a unified opinion, the entire general order was quickly conveyed. Although Xun Yu noticed that Jiangdong was mobilizing troops, there was no trace of joy on his face.

As for why Zhao Yun acted like this, it must start from the general order sent by Meng Chen after he dispatched troops.

At the end of last year, Meng Chen led an army of more than [-] troops to the south, and successfully occupied a large area of ​​territory under Cao Cao's rule.

But in order to disintegrate the three alliances and prevent the other two from sending troops, this is the immediate action.

In Chenliu City, Meng Chen, who was having lunch, received the long-awaited news!

"My lord, General Meng Yan led one hundred thousand elite troops to cross the river."

"That's great, after Meng Yan finishes resting, it's time for the decisive battle against Cao Cao." Meng Chen threw down the leg of lamb in his hand, picked up the wine cup and drank it down in one gulp.

"Haha, I have long heard that General Meng Yan is alive and well, and finally I can see his glory." Pang Tong said with a big laugh.

But as soon as these words were uttered, several black lines appeared on Meng's forehead!

"Shi Yuan, who did you listen to? It's true that Meng Yan has shortcomings..." Before Meng Chen finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shi A who broke in suddenly.

"My lord, there is news from Chang'an that the five elders of the Meng clan intended to rebel, and have been executed by the military division on the spot."

Don't look at Shi A's understatement, but Meng Chen can imagine what happened.

The elders of the Meng clan have always been mysterious, and five of them jumped out at once, and it is unknown how many people can be incited to follow him to make trouble.

"The military adviser also asked, how should the rebels be dealt with?" Shi A continued to speak, but this sentence gave Meng Chen his whole body like an electric shock.

After pondering for a while, Meng Chen said lightly: "Block the news, the rebels will be detained first, so as not to shake the hearts of the soldiers in front!"

Meng Chen felt helpless in doing so, after all, most of his personal guards were descendants of the Meng family, and he didn't want to store a time bomb by his side that could be used at any time.

Shi A promised to leave, and not long after, Jia Xu hurriedly appeared in front of Meng Chen.

"Mr. Wen He, but there is news from Jiang Xia?" Meng Chen spoke first, and there should be news from Zhao Yun after some time.

"My lord, the three thousand cavalry led by General Zhao have already crossed the river." Jia Xu replied with a smile.

"Mr. Wen He hasn't shown such a smile for a long time, but there is still a happy event?" Looking at Jia Xu's smiling face, Meng Chen continued to tease.

"To be honest, my lord, there is news from home that Xu Tian has a grandson." Jia Xu didn't hide anything, and hurriedly shared the good news.

"Hahaha, congratulations to Mr. Wenhe, you should understand!" Meng Chen hurriedly congratulated, and then handed over his wine cup.

The burst of laughter in front of him is enough to show how beneficial the current form of war is to the Xiliang Army.

On the other hand, Cao Cao's side, although the mobilization of the war has been completed, the gap in proportion is still irreparable.

In Xudu City, the common people were worried about this war, especially about the reason for the war, which was even more rumored.

It is no exaggeration to say that the public opinion raised by Anbu has caused Cao Cao to fall into distress!
"Bastard, I managed to catch one, but I didn't expect it to be a dead man!" Cheng Yu shouted angrily. The rumors these days made Cao Cao suffer from another headache.

And Cheng Yu's current state is not much different from Cao Cao's. People from Anbu came and went without a trace, and finally chased and intercepted one, but in the end it was still a corpse.

"Zhongde, can the restaurant be locked down?" Guo Jia's voice came from behind, and Cheng Yu's face darkened even more.

"Youjian Restaurant" used to be the place where Meng Chen and Cao Cao exchanged information, but since the relationship between the two parties deteriorated, this restaurant has gradually faded out of people's sight.

This arrest, Cheng Yu worked hard, but he didn't expect that he still got nothing in the end!
"All the people in the restaurant have been interrogated, and they are no longer the same people as before." Cheng Yu sighed.

"What about the chamber of commerce? Is there any trace of the chamber of commerce?" Guo Jia continued to ask.

"I checked. All the merchants in Xudu have been carefully checked. Except for their business dealings, they are all very clean and there is not even a trace of bad deeds." Cheng Yu said helplessly.

Hearing this, Guo Jia fell into deep thought. He didn't expect Anbu's methods to be so powerful, but the more this happened, the more suspicious Guo Jia became.

"Report, my lord is urgently recruiting army divisions and prefect Cheng."

The two who heard the words looked at each other, although there were many puzzles in their hearts, there was nothing they could do right now.

If Anbu is not removed, all the arrangements they make cannot escape Meng Chen's eyeliner.

In the Cao mansion, Cao Cao, who had a headache, finally relaxed a little today, but the battle report sent today made Cao Cao completely cut off the idea of ​​reinforcements.

"Zhao Yun led [-] cavalry to attack Jiang Xia, Huang Zu was killed, and Jiang Xia fell to the top of Jiangdong." Looking at Guo Jia and Cheng Yu who had just arrived, Cao Cao said slowly.

Since then, Sun Quan and Liu Bei have torn their faces, and they will not send troops to reinforce them!
