On the city, Lu Su stood proudly, his momentum undiminished.But Lu Su's complexion was not good, and his cheeks were very thin.It is difficult to resist Cao Ren's attack.

During this period of time, Lu Su spent countless hearts, tossing and turning countless nights.His spirit was not much better than Cao Ren's.But in the end, Lu Su still guarded Ai County and gave Cao Ren a big defeat.

"Finally lived up to His Highness's expectations."

Watching Cao Jun pull out the camp, a smile appeared on Lu Su's face, and a big stone that was weighing on his heart finally fell to the ground.

……

Outside the city of Xiangyang, in Wu Jun's central army tent, Zhou Yu sat high on the handsome seat, his face was a little pale, and his frail body looked even weaker.

During these days, Zhou Yu was not having a good time either.He expended countless efforts and tried every means to lure Huang Zhong to fight, but the result was nothing.

Although Huang Zhong's intelligence is not as good as Zhou Yu's, but he has experienced many battles, and he is determined to stick to Xiangyang and never fight.Because Xiangyang City is tall and Huang Zhong is a fierce general, the defense of Xiangyang City is much higher than Lusu's Ai County.

Zhou Yu and Liu Pan have many coalition forces, but they also did not shake Xiangyang by a single point.

As a result of painstaking efforts, Zhou Yu's current body is even weaker. To put it bluntly, this will shorten Zhou Yu's lifespan a lot.

Besides Zhou Yu, there is still Liu Pan in the big tent at this moment.

Compared with Zhou Yu, Liu Pan was a hundred times weaker. His face was as pale as paper, his spine was slightly bent, his body was ten times stronger than Zhou Yu's, and he looked weaker than Zhou Yu's.

That's because of fear.

Under such pressure, Lu Su secured the territory of the five counties.In terms of territory, economic power, population, and influence, they have already surpassed their Jingchu Liu family.

When Lu Su was at an absolute disadvantage in the past, they couldn't beat Lu Su, but now Lu Su has the absolute upper hand.

One can imagine what will happen to them.

This fear caused Liu Pan to be at this moment.

"General Zhou, although Lu Su has occupied Hanzhong now, it will take some time before he can return to the army. Should we work harder and conquer Xiangyang?"

After a long silence, Liu Pan slowly raised his head to look at Zhou Yu, and asked cautiously.

Back then, the Jingchu Liu family had the strength to challenge Jiangdong, and Liu Pan even often led Huang Zhong to attack Jiangdong.But now it was Jingchu who would not be able to survive without Jiangdong.

While speaking, Liu Pan felt various feelings welling up in his heart.

Facing Liu Pan's humility, Zhou Yu didn't feel happy, and was superior.That's because Jing Chu was disabled by Lu Su, which caused this situation.

It's not that Jiangdong has really developed and grown bigger.

What is there to be happy about?

Liu Pan's humility not only did not make Zhou Yu happy, but instead made Zhou Yu feel sympathetic.

"Alas." Facing Liu Pan's hopeful gaze, Zhou Yu sighed and said, "Attacking Xiangyang is no longer possible. But General Liu is also assured that if Lu Su really goes south, Jiangdong Sun will help him. "

Just like Cao Ren's worries, Zhou Yu also has all kinds of worries. He knows that continuing to attack Xiangyang will not do any good except for additional casualties. What he can do now is to try his best to ensure the survival of the Liu family in Jingchu, and even allow Zhou Yu to garrison him. In Jiangling, protect Liu's safety.

It's ridiculous to say that the Sun family and the Liu family, who originally had the vengeance of killing their father, will become two forces with cold lips and dead teeth.Many emotions came to Zhou Yu's heart.

Liu Pan couldn't hide his disappointment when he heard the words, but after getting Zhou Yu's promise, he also calmed down a little. With Jiang Dong's help, their life will be much easier.

"Thank you, General Zhou." Liu Pan thanked him regardless of his shame.

"You're welcome." Zhou Yu said very politely.

Immediately, after the two discussed the matter of withdrawing troops, Liu Pan left.Soon after, Zhou Yu and Liu Pan all retreated.

It is quite spectacular to pull out the camp and escape.

Huang Zhong and Meng Jian appeared at the top of Xiangyang City. They watched Zhou Yu and Liu Pan leave with a very happy mood.

Neither, though, has the arrogance of a victor.Because it's hard to win.

"In this battle, the Jingchu Liu clan completely lost their energy, no different from the dying old man. However, the Jiangdong Sun clan still has power and vitality. We still have a long way to go to defend Xiangyang."

Huang Zhong sighed and said.

Old Huang Zhong's calm words made Meng Jian quite agree.Nodding his head, he said, "The general is right. Jiangdong's loss is still the enemy."

The two still attach great importance to losses, but they can't change it. The Sun family has lost this war.

At the same time, Sun Ce, who had been entrenched outside Linhuai City and stormed Linhuai for countless days, also retreated.Without any hesitation, the troops quickly retreated, leaving only thousands of corpses behind.

At the head of Linhuai City, Zhao Yun and Liu Xun also stood side by side, watching the process of Sun Ce's retreat.

Zhao Yun was happy. Liu Feng led his troops to conquer Hanzhong. After many ups and downs, he finally took Hanzhong. Not only did he take Hanzhong, but he could also maintain peace with Liu Zhang.

The four counties of Xinye have completely become the five counties of Xinye. Not only the population and power have increased, but the strategic depth has also become wider.Of course, it is getting closer to revitalizing the Han Dynasty.

It has been a long time since I left Xudu, and I have been fighting abroad for a long time.But Zhao Yun never forgot his determination in Xudu to assist Liu Feng and revive the Han Dynasty.

And what is more gratifying than Liu Feng's power increase?No.

Zhao Yun's heart was filled with pure joy and joy.

Compared with Zhao Yun, Liu Xun's mood is much more complicated.He was lamenting that Lu Su's luck was good, and he was able to save himself from danger when he met a weak person like Liu Zhang.

Not only sigh, but even envy.He has been based in Huainan for so many years, how come he hasn't met such a weak prince.If Sun Ce is also weak, maybe he will unify Huainan.

On the other hand, Liu Xun was very fortunate.

Last time, after the news of Lu Su and Liu Zhang's quarrel came, Liu Xun once wanted to be a deserter and give up such a promising job as following Lu Su.

Instead, he fled to the north to join Cao Cao.

But with an idea, Liu Xun finally chose to take a gamble to see if Lu Su could tide over the difficulties and soar into the sky.result.

Liu Xun reckoned that he would wake up laughing even if he was sleeping.Fortunately, I am extremely fortunate that I did not become a deserter and left Lu Su.Fortunately, at the same time, Liu Xun strengthened his belief in following Lu Su.

He decided to send someone to write a letter to Lu Su immediately, giving up his military power, and giving Lu Su the territory in this area.Thoroughly put into Lu Su's arms, stay away from this cruel war of princes, and enjoy the glory and wealth of the rest of his life.

"Give up the land of a county in Shouchun to Lu Su. The old man's status should not be low. There should be a lot of rewards." Liu Xun was looking forward to it in his heart.

"General Zhao, you and I should get closer in the future." Liu Xun smiled and raised his fist at Zhao Yun.

"Huh?" Zhao Yun was a little confused.

"Hehe." Seeing Zhao Yun's confusion, Liu Xun laughed.
