In the water stockade east of the river, the whole army was dressed in plain clothes.
Cheng Pu, the old general who had made great contributions to Jiangdong, was shot dead by Xu Chu.
When Zhuge Liang entered the Jiangdong water village, he wore a mourning hat on his head!
"Old General Cheng!"
"Old Hero Cheng, why did you leave me? I haven't listened to the old general's teachings!”
Zhuge Liang entered the water stronghold and threw himself in front of Cheng Pu's coffin.
Zhou Yu, Zhou Tai, Gan Ning, and Zu Mao were guarding Zhuge Liang's coffin. Seeing Zhuge Liang crying so sadly, Gan Ning couldn't help but cry again.
Zhou Yu stepped forward to help Zhuge Liang up." Brother Zhuge, the spirit of the old General Cheng Pu in heaven will definitely be comforted!"”
Zhou Tai, Gan Ning and the others continued to guard the spirit. Zhou Yu, dressed in plain clothes, followed Zhuge Liang to the main hall of the rear stronghold.
After entering the hall, Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang and said through gritted teeth,""This sneak attack on Jiangxia was ambushed by little Xu Chu. Cai Mao led a hundred thousand Jing State navy troops to intercept and kill him.”
"Brother Zhuge, if this Xu Chu is brave, then it's not enough to prove it. But he saw through my plan…I even suspect that Xun Yu has come to Jingzhou!”
Zhuge Liang listened to Zhou Yu and said,""Viceroy, you might not know this, but before the battle of Xinye, Xu Chu had always been Cao Cao's bodyguard and had never led the army alone. However, after the battle of Xinye, Xu Chu was like a god!”
"I also think that Xu Chu has someone helping him from behind. As for the rumors that Guo Jia is not dead and Xu Chu is not going to appear, they are just rumors. There must be an expert guiding Xu Chu from behind!”
Zhou Yu gritted his teeth in anger.”
Zhuge Liang leaned over to Zhou Yu and said,""Yesterday, the scouts reported that Xun You was the one who wrote a letter to Cao Cao and made the Jingzhou aristocrats submit to him. The one who gave Cao Cao advice and sent a letter to Jiangxia was Jia Xu…not Xu Chu as rumored!”
Zhou Yu's ashen face finally eased up a little.""So it's that old fox Jia Xu who's playing tricks behind the scenes!”
Zhuge Liang continued,"However, the person who ordered Cao Cao to send 50,000 cavalry to intercept my Lord is undoubtedly Xu Chu.”
Zhou Yu consoled Zhuge Liang." Brother Zhuge, don't worry about it. Victory and defeat are common in military strategists. We are outnumbered by the enemy. Don't worry about it."”
The two of them comforted each other.
They had both lost to the same person, and they comforted each other. They were somewhat connected by fate.
"Brother Zhuge!"
"Gongjin!"
Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu held hands tightly.
"River East is the last barrier.”
Under the pressure of Cao Cao's army.
The two of them swore an oath!
Advance and retreat together!
……
Jianye!
Sun Quan wept as he sent General Cheng Pu off.
And behead the case and swear an oath!
If anyone dares to stop me from avenging Old General Cheng Pu, it will be like this case.
All the advisors in Jiangdong were moved.
The four great clans of River East were completely tied to Sun Quan's warship. Cheng Pu had died in battle, and Cao Cao's Jiangxia had been burned down. The two sides were like fire and water.
It was already impossible for Zhang Er to persuade Sun Quan to join Cao Cao!
The advisors of River East retreated, leaving only Lu Su.
After wiping his tears, Sun Quan calmly asked Lu Su,"Gongjin suffered such a defeat and will definitely seek revenge. Gongjin is not someone who suffers losses, but now is not the best time to fight Cao Cao.”
"Yes, my lord."
"Do you know the whereabouts of the peerless genius you mentioned?”
The genius Sun Quan was referring to was Chen Fan, whom Lu Su had recommended.
"My lord, I haven't found Chen Fan yet, but I've found another genius.”
"Oh, who is it?"
"My lord, do you remember what Mister Shui Jing said before the Crouching Dragon was born?”
"What words?"
Sun Quan immediately became very interested.
"If the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chicks get one, the world will be at peace!”
After Lu Su finished speaking, Sun Quan's eyes lit up.
"You mean, Phoenix Pang Tong? Pang Shiyuan? You found him?"
"Not bad! It's Pang Tong!"
"Good, good, good. Quickly introduce him to me.”
If Liu Bei gets the dragon, the phoenix will belong to me, Sun Quan.
After Lu Su left the palace and returned home, Pang Tong was still sleeping soundly. Lu Su woke Pang Shiyuan up and said,"Brother Shiyuan, follow me quickly. I will introduce you to my lord…"
When Pang Tong heard this, he waved his hand and said,"I have no achievements and no gifts. How can I meet your lord?”
"My lord doesn't need Shiyuan's achievements!”
"No, I can't! I want to see Imperial Uncle Liu! After that, we'll go to Jing Prefecture."
"Brother Shiyuan, are you going to help Cao Wei?" Lu Su's expression changed drastically.”
"No, no!"
"Don't worry, Zijing. I won't join Cao Cao. I'll go find Imperial Uncle Liu first!”
Lu Su heard this and nodded." Alright then. I'll introduce Shiyuan to Imperial Uncle Liu."”
……
Lu Su and Pang Tong entered Liu Bei's camp.
Liu Bei was overjoyed and welcomed him.
He had long heard of the name Phoenix Chick. After all, it was as famous as the Crouching Dragon!
However, after Pang Tong met Liu Bei, he said,"I want to go to Jing Prefecture!"
Liu Bei turned pale with fright.”
Pang Tong looked at Liu Bei and waved his hand." No, no. Isn't there a rumor that Xu Chu won't appear until Guo Jia dies?" I want to go to Jingzhou and see what kind of monsters are behind Xu Chu!”
From Pang Tong's words, Liu Bei could hear the feeling of a showdown.
His Daoist name was Phoenix Chick, and he was as famous as the Crouching Dragon. It was said that the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick alone could bring peace to the world.
Now that the Crouching Dragon had lost to Xu Chu, wasn't this telling the world that the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick had an undeserved reputation?
Liu Bei wanted to stop him, but he could not stop Pang Tong's determination to go to Jingzhou.
By the river, Liu Bei watched Pang Tong leave on his boat.
"I wonder if Brother Shiyuan can defeat Xu Chu…"
Liu Bei stared at Pang Tong's departing figure and began to doubt whether Pang Tong's strategy could defeat Xu Chu.
The name of Mingming Phoenix Chick is known all over the world.
However, Liu Bei was still worried.
If Feng Chu were to arrive at Cao Cao's camp and be crushed by Xu Chu, that would be the biggest joke in the world.
Would a proud person like Pang Tong accept his failure?
……
Pang Tong boarded the boat and went ashore. He stared in the direction of Fan City and walked over with firm footsteps!
He had already made up his mind to fight the person behind Xu Chu.
He wanted to see who the person behind Xu Chu was.
He wanted to let Liu Bei see that Xu Chu could defeat a dragon, but not a phoenix.
……
In Fan City, Cao Cao was worried about the soldiers in the north who were not used to the environment.
If these soldiers from the north rode horses to fight, they were all elites.
However, on the ship, they became weaklings. Not to mention fighting, even standing was a problem. Every day, a large number of soldiers fell sick.
If this matter could not be resolved, there was no way they could cross the natural barrier of the Yangtze River and fight against the Jiangdong Navy.
"Prime minister, prime minister, this is great news. A wise man has come to visit…"
"Oh, who's here?"
"Prime Minister, do you know Mister Feng Chu, who is equally famous as Crouching Dragon?"”
"Oh, Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick? Are you talking about Pang Tong and Pang Shiyuan?"
"Quick, let him in."
Cao Cao immediately became interested.
He had already seen Zhuge Liang in the Sleeping Dragon. If it was not for Xu Chu's repeated suggestions, he would have suffered even more at Zhuge Liang's hands.
It wasn't that Zhuge Liang wasn't strong, it was just that Xu Chu's skills were superior!
When Cao Cao thought of Xu Chu, a smile bloomed on his face.
I have Xu Chu, why worry about the world's injustice?
Who in the world didn't know that Xu Chu, the Tiger Maniac, was unparalleled in his schemes?
……
Pang Tong entered the main hall and bowed to the ground."This commoner Pang Shiyuan greets Prime Minister Cao.”
"Oh, is your uncle well?"
"Prime minister, my uncle is in good health.”
Pang Tong's uncle was none other than Duke Pang De. Half of the strategists in Jing State were under Duke Pang De's tutelage. The Pang family was highly respected in Jing State.
"Since Young Phoenix is here, let's host a banquet and invite Jia Xu, Chen Qun, Cheng Yu and the rest to welcome Mister Young Phoenix!”
Cao Cao paid special attention to Pang Tong.
After all, who wouldn't want to gain the reputation of loving talents?
Pang Tong cupped his hands and thanked him." Thank you for your hospitality, Prime Minister. I wonder where General Xu Chu is and if he would like to join us for a feast. I heard that General Xu Chu has far-reaching plans in River East. Seeing it for myself is better than hearing a hundred times. Prime Minister Cao, please invite General Xu Chu to join us for a drink…"
When Cao Cao heard Pang Tong specifically asking Xu Chu to accompany him, he knew that the guest was not friendly.
However, Pang Tong's tone seemed to be filled with a desire to compete with Xu Chu…
Suddenly, Cao Cao recalled the incident where Xu Chu had beheaded Xu You.
They could not allow Xu Chu and Pang Tong to sit at the same table. If Pang Tong was aggressive and angered Xu Chu, this hothead would cut Pang Tong with a knife at the table. That would stir up a hornet's nest.
Cao Cao knew Xu Chu's temperament very well. If Pang Tong angered him, this fool would really dare to cut him.
If he killed Pang De Gong's nephew, all the celebrities in Jingzhou would probably criticize him.
"Shiyuan, Xu Chu has official duties to attend to. He can't leave his post without permission.”
Cao Cao directly rejected Pang Tong.
This was also for the sake of Pang Tong's life.
Pang Tong saw that Cao Cao was using official business to shirk responsibility, so he couldn't force him.
Jia Xu, Chen Qun, Cheng Yu, Xun You, and the others arrived.
They also wanted to see what kind of talent Feng Chu, who was as famous as the Crouching Dragon, was.
……
Xu Chu was leading the Tiger Warriors on patrol in Fan City. He saw Zhang Liao riding over from afar.
"Zhongkang, you've met an opponent... He doesn't come with good intentions.”
Xu Chu was confused." If you have something to say, say it. Don't beat around the bush. Why are you talking in riddles?"”
Zhang Liao listened to Xu Chu's vulgarities and smiled."This is the Tiger Maniac I know!”
"Do you know Feng Chu?"
"What chick?”
This sentence made the soldiers beside him burst into laughter. Even Zhang Liao was amused by Xu Chu's words.
Little chick…
Isn't that so?
'Feng Chu, Feng Chu, isn't she just a chick…'
"General Xu, if Pang Shiyuan heard what you said, he would vomit blood.”
Xu Chu was confused." Go, go, go. Don't talk nonsense with me. It's a chick and Pang Shiyuan. What does it have to do with anything?" Don't hinder me from patrolling the city."
After Xu Chu said this, he complained about Zhang Liao's riddles…
"Who's talking in riddles with you? Don't you know about the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick?”
"What the f * ck Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick? What are you trying to say? Just say…"
This sentence completely confused Zhang Liao.
Zhang Liao was confused…
What kind of riddle am I playing?
I said phoenix chick.
You said Little Chick.
I said Pang Shiyuan.
You said nonsense…
I say of the dragon and phoenix.
You swore at me…
You've been fighting with Zhuge Wo for so long. Don't you know who Wo Long is?
Are you looking down on me and pretending to be stupid, or are you mocking Pang Tong? He didn't put Pang Tong in his eyes!
