Chapter 189: There is no more Six Expeditions to Qishan, the tragic song of Kong Ming!

The mighty river flows eastward, and a majestic city stands on the south bank.

Zhongshan is like a dragon and Shitou is like a tiger. It is a rare metropolis that has existed for ten dynasties in Chinese history and is very famous.

For example, the Sima family who migrated southward...

Of course, there is also Liu Ji'nu, who is as bold and aggressive as a tiger.

Xiao He's descendant, Xiao Daocheng, established the country of Qi here.

Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Bodhisattva, also started the Southern Dynasty 484 temples here, and many pavilions were in the mist and rain...

At the end of the Liang Dynasty, there were Hu troops on the riverside and warlords at home. Emperor Wu of Chen established his capital here and saved the last piece of land for the Han people.

The last emperor of Southern Tang also went up to the west tower alone here in silence, saying something about the moon being like a hook.

Together with Zhu Hongwu, Hong Taiping and Sun Dapao, three heroes who were determined to expel the Tartars, this is the capital of nine dynasties.

Then,

How did it start in the first place?
"Jianye..."

"I personally built Jianye City..."

"I'm back!!!"

On the deck, Sun Zhongmou's blue eyes were filled with heat. He finally returned to his Jianye City!

At this moment, Sun Quan even had an urge to cry loudly!

Sun Quan fought in Hefei six times in his life, which is the biggest topic of his life.

Nanjing has been passed down through nine dynasties over two thousand years.
His greatest legacy...

On the huge ship, Sun Quan’s royal flag and banner were flying!

When he left Jianye to attack Hefei, he was still the Marquis of Wu, but now he has returned as the King of Wu of the Han Dynasty!

The Jiangdong family finally gave in.

Without even waiting for him to come back, he quickly sent people to make peace and took the initiative to promote Zhou Yu's group of Huaisi generals who were loyal to Sun Quan to show his sincerity.

It can be said that there is no suspense at all next. The only variable is the force of Liu Bei and Liu Xuande that stirs up Jiangdong.

If Liu Bei had not launched the rebellion, it would have been impossible for Jiangdong to establish a new ruler.

There was a hint of cruelty in Sun Quan's eyes.

Now that they have returned to Jiangdong, even though the Jiangdong nobles bowed their heads in time, how could Sun Quan let them off so easily...

Although it won't lead to a bloodbath, it is necessary to give them a severe beating.

And that little beast Sun Shao deserves to die!

Sun Quan would never forget what happened to him the last time he returned to Jiangdong.
At that time, Liu Wu was busy heading north and had no intention of going to war with Jiangdong. He just asked Gan Ning to escort him, but he was blocked by the Jiangdong navy. What did Sun Shao say to him?

Correct!
I remembered!

"Uncle, Lord Xuande fled to Jiangdong and didn't even go back to Jingnan. Now that you've gone to Xiling, you shouldn't go back to Jiangdong."

"Go back to Xiling, uncle. I will take good care of Jiangdong for you!"

"Not only that, I will also follow the example of my father and expand the territory. I will never be a ruler who only maintains the status quo!"

"As for Hefei, I will take it for my uncle in the future..."

Sun Zhongmou's heart was beating faster and he couldn't help laughing. He wished he could quickly pull that little beast Sun Shao down from the throne of Jianye and make him say it again in person!
"Also, Liu Da'er..."

To be honest, Sun Quan has grown up and experienced so many things, but he has never hated someone so much!
da~
da~
There were footsteps behind him. It was Liu Wu: "Uncle, look, Jianye is almost here."

"What belongs to you is yours, and no one can take it away."

Sun Quan laughed at that moment, and he could only hear him say: "If it is not mine, then it is not mine. No matter how hard I try, I can't get it, and I almost got myself into trouble..."

Liu Wu stood with his hands behind his back, looking out from afar. He could already see the figure with a feather fan and a long scarf on the shore. "Are you talking about Hefei, uncle?"

Sun Quan also saw the figure on the shore: "My family's Hefei, my brother-in-law's Kong Ming, I have heard of them. I knelt on Wolong Hill for three days and three nights before I invited this Mr. Wolong to come out of the mountain..."

Liu Wu's expression was slightly moved.

After a long time, he slowly said, "I am not a wise leader like Kong Ming."

"Kong Ming is not a good minister to me."

……

On the vast river, a small boat was speeding towards the east, which was the direction of the Han Canal, which connected the Huai River with the Yangtze River.

The Huai River can connect to Xuchang!
The waves are rolling,

The boat was going faster and faster, but the people on board still thought it was too slow.

"Faster! Faster!" Liu Xuande at the bow felt his lips and tongue dry.

The captain who was rowing hard on the side was panting: "Your Majesty, Uncle Emperor, the river is vast and boundless. We are waiting for only a small boat to go east. I think no one will find us..."

"Stupid!" Liu Xuande shouted, interrupting the captain's words directly: "There must be spies from Sun Quan and Liu Wu in Jiangdong. If they know our whereabouts, how can they remain indifferent!"

"Liu Wu's Jingzhou navy has already approached the Jiangdong water fort. If he gets the news and sends ships to chase us, we will definitely not be able to escape his pursuit..."

"Don't stop now, go faster, faster!"

"Only when we enter the Han Canal will we be truly safe."

The Han Canal was not accessible to fleets and navy, so even if Liu Wu caught up with them, he could only sigh at the sight of the Han Canal.

When the captain heard the word "Hanggou", his mouth was filled with bitterness...

If we keep rowing from here until we reach the Han Canal, wouldn't the arms of everyone on the boat be cut off?
call! ~
The wind is coming!
The soldiers on the ship cheered:
"The strong wind is blowing towards the Han Canal!"

"Raise the sail, raise the sail quickly!"

wow~
The sails were fully inflated, and the ship instantly sailed eastward like an arrow.

Liu Xuande breathed a sigh of relief. With the help of the strong wind, he would be able to enter the Han Canal before Liu Wu caught up.

He turned his head and looked to the west, where Jianye was.

Liu Bei took a deep breath and said, "Military Advisor, Jiangdong is now handed over to you..."

……

On the bank of the river in Jianye, there was only Kong Ming.

I drank all night last night and still feel drunk.

Ahead is a mighty river, so vast that it seems to have no boundaries.

The fleet could already be seen arriving. The densely packed naval ships were terrifying in appearance. The pressure from the combined forces of the Jingzhou Navy and the Jiangdong Navy was like a corner of the sky tilted, and it was heading towards Jianye City.

Right behind Zhuge Liang,
Somewhere farther away,

A group of Jiangdong court officials hid here, looking forward and talking.

"Tell me, how can Kong Ming resist?"

"Resist? What a joke! The Jiangdong navy and the Jingzhou navy have joined forces like never before. Cao Mengde's 800,000-man army couldn't resist them..." "But Zhuge Liang has always been able to predict the future. He is Liu Xuande's strategist..."

"If you ask me, what is there to be afraid of with a Kong Ming? Let's go to the shore and welcome our king!"

"Don't move without permission!"

"Yes, he is not good at moving. Who knows what Kong Ming has hidden?"

"That makes sense. My king has long known our sincerity. Zhou Yu and others have been promoted, and the Jiangdong Navy has also joined the Jingzhou Navy. There is no need to rush. Before the dust settles, we should not easily offend Kong Ming."

"I'm really curious, what is Kong Ming's back-up plan?"

"I heard that he didn't make any arrangements on the surface. Could he be deliberately trying to be mysterious?"

"There is no arrangement on the surface, but it is hard to say what will happen in private..."

In the council hall that day, Kong Ming said he could, that he could stop Liu Wu!
But after analyzing the situation, the Jiangdong gentry unanimously agreed that there was little hope.

So he sold out Liu Bei, Kong Ming and the new Marquis of Wu, Sun Shao, and reunited around Sun Bi'an, the current King of Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Too,

Where does the Duke of Wu get the King of Wu incense?
In other words, people are still a little wary of Zhuge Liang at the moment, but Zhuge Liang seems to have done nothing.

They really don't know what's going on right now...

Otherwise, he would have knelt down on the shore to welcome Sun Quan.

Boom~
The giant ship slowly approached the shore and touched the dock.

The man who was drinking at Dadan finally moved. He picked up the feather fan again and straightened his clothes slightly.

At this moment, Zhuge Kongming, Mr. Wolong...

His eyes were no longer bright and lively, and were filled with an unconcealable loneliness.

He has to resist Liu Wu's Jingzhou army and hold on!
They held on until Liu Bei found Cao Cao's reinforcements...

Wolong's eyebrows moved slightly, his mind was already flowing.

This strategy was formulated by Zhuge Liang on the eve of his return to Jianye when the battle in Xiling was going badly.

Liu Bei abandoned everything and risked his life to head north to seek help from Cao Cao.

Zhuge Liang held fast to Jiangdong...

This seemed to be a resolute act of loyalty between the king and his subjects, of trusting each other with life and death, of almost burning their boats and dying if they failed. However, in Kong Ming's eyes, it was absurd and ridiculous.

……

"Kong Ming, if I hadn't dodged this arrow quickly, I would have died."

"This little bastard! I wish I could chop him into pieces!"

"Sir, have you seen that Liu Wu no longer has any scruples towards me? This time in Xiling, I just glared at him, but he actually killed me directly, totally disregarding our old friendship..."

"Too tough will easily break. Sooner or later, this beast will be defeated by Cao Cao."

“I’ve been avoiding him outside Gong’an City, but now Xiling just glared at him and wants to kill me!”

"This ungrateful bastard..."

"Sir, this evil beast will definitely send Sun Quan back to Jiangdong. Jingnan has been lost. Is there still a place for us in Jiangdong?"

"It's a pity that Liu Xuande has been wandering for half his life..."

At that time,

Zhuge Liang could already see that Liu Xuande had lost all his courage and was full of hatred.

By convention,

Uncle Liu is going to continue running.

The world is so big, where else can I run to?
In such a vast world, who can compete with Liu Wu?
Cao Cao ...

Only Cao Cao.

"Cao Cao and I are lifelong enemies..."

"Cao Cao wants to kill us as soon as possible!"

"But now the situation in the world has changed drastically. Liu Wu has soared to the sky, established a career in Jiangbei, and swallowed up my Jingnan. He won a great victory in Xiangfan, took all of Nanyang, and even led troops into Xuchang. Now he has to escort Sun Quan back to Jiangdong."

"It goes without saying that if he sends Sun Quan back, Jiangdong will definitely follow Liu Wu's lead in the future."

"Now Liu Wu has reached a point where no one can control him. Although Cao Cao is old, he is not so old and confused..."

In Cao Cao's eyes, Liu Bei's most valuable status now is his identity as the biological father of King Liu Wu of Chu...

For Liu Bei, running to Cao Cao was like trying to grab chestnuts from the fire and seeking survival from death!
It was said that Liu Bei had a narrow escape from death when he went to join Cao Cao, but in fact the chances were a bit too high.

But Kong Ming could see that Liu Xuande was unwilling to give in, so he would rather risk his life this time!
"My lord, if you are willing to risk your life and go north to seek help from Cao Mengde..."

"Liang is willing to defend Jiangdong for the lord until the lord returns."

"gentlemen?!"

"Lord..."

……

……

The golden autumn sun shone on Kong Ming. He raised his eyes and happened to see the young and majestic figure under the flag of the giant ship king.

"Ah……"

Zhuge Liang smiled.

A sad smile.

Full of suffering.

How insignificant was he on that snowy night when the police officer ran away?
But even so, he also established a base in Jiangbei and took away Jingnan.

What's more, nowadays?
His soaring momentum...

There will be no more Six Expeditions to Qishan!

Do we need to guess what the Jiangdong family is thinking?

If they could be trusted, Huang Yueying would probably be able to climb the tree.

Zhuge Liang was not some god or ghost, he was just a minister who tried his best to make his lord look decent.

in this way,

In the eyes of the world, Liu Bei did not run away because he was afraid of Liu Wu, but because he entrusted his life and death to his military advisor Kong Ming and risked his life to go north to ask Cao Cao for help.

It was just that Kong Ming was incompetent and failed to resist Liu Wu.

It was Zhuge Liang who betrayed Liu Xuande...

　No more today.
