Chapter 80 Adou: Brother, father misses you so much!
Chapter 080 Adou: Brother, father misses you so much!

The sun slowly rose to the zenith, and the sunlight became brighter and brighter.

On top of Xiling City,
Lu Xun, Gan Ning, Wei Yan and others felt hot all over and their blood was boiling. They felt that the words of their lord were hotter than the sun in the sky!

Liu Wu's voice was low, but every word was sonorous: "After taking the four counties in southern Jing, our army can be divided into two groups. One group will wait for changes in the Central Plains, and then we can lead the people of Jingzhou and march north..."

"Send troops from Jiangling and attack Xiangfan directly."

"If we take Xiangfan, our army can take Nanyang and the area north of Jiangxia, and then we can take the entire Jingzhou!"

"Then we can rush to Luoyang from Wancheng and shock the Central Plains..."

Liu Wu's words echoed all around, and everyone was in a trance. They seemed to really see the exciting scene of the army leaving Jiangling, with swords and spears, competing for supremacy in the Central Plains!
With the lord's current foundation and the occupation of Jiangling, he only needs to wait for the navy to be completed, and then it will be a natural thing for him to go south and take the four counties in southern Jing.

At that time, the lord had a well-trained army with sufficient food and a solid foundation, so it was no wonder that he went north to the Central Plains!

As for whether the lord can defeat Liu Xuande who currently occupies the four counties in southern Jing... hehe, how is Liu Xuande better than Cao Mengde?
Liu Wu's voice continued: "Another army can follow Jiangdong's plan and take the water route out of Hefei and go to Shouchun. Then our fleet can enter the Huai River..."

"Then we can take advantage of the tributaries of the Huai River, such as the Sishui River, the Woshui River, and the Hongshui River, and advance into the Central Plains! The troops will march straight to the lands of Qing, Yan, and Yu, and head straight to the Central Plains area of ​​Xuchang!"

"In this way, if the two armies march together, we can capture the Central Plains!"

boom! ~
The Central Plains can be conquered!

These four words were like thunder, ringing in the ears of everyone present.

It shocked them so much that their blood boiled!
Their hearts were beating like thunder!

Great cause, this is the great cause they pursue throughout their lives!

This is why they follow Liu Wu! .
"My lord..." Wei Yan seemed to have thought of something, and he hesitated: "My lord, although your plan can take over the Central Plains, we are now surrounded by powerful enemies."

"After you take the four counties in southern Jing, you will have Sun Quan in Jiangdong to the east and Liu Zhang in Bashu to the west."

"We want to fight for the Central Plains, how can the surrounding enemies remain indifferent?"

Liu Wu said calmly: "Jiangling is the pass to enter Bashu, but it can also lock Bashu! Xiling can block the east and west of the river, and Hefei can block the north and south of the river."

"These important passes are all in our hands. We don't need to be afraid of people like Sun Quan and Liu Zhang."

This is where Liu Wu’s confidence comes from. The land he occupies now is undoubtedly the important place on both sides of the river, which is the most coveted and feared by all forces.

As long as these places are in Liu Wu's hands, he can seize the initiative once a conflict occurs with these powerful leaders!
Lu Xun nodded subconsciously after hearing this, but he was suddenly stunned.

The Lord seems to have overlooked the most important issue...

Lu Xun spoke tentatively: "My lord said that when there is a change in the Central Plains, we can plan a big event, but, it is only in the short term, I am afraid that the Central Plains will not change before it changes."

"Cao Mengde is in charge of the north, and all the heroes are helpless! Moreover, he is holding the emperor hostage to command the princes and is in a position of righteousness. The situation in the north seems to be as stable as Mount Tai at this moment. How can it change?"

"In addition, even if Cao Mengde really can't suppress the north, by then the northern heroes will rise up and fight all the time. Even if we send a large army to the border, we may not be able to subdue the heroes in one battle. By then..."

When Lu Xun reached this point, his voice gradually became quieter.

The others gradually came to their senses. The Lord's plan was indeed very good, but as Lu Xun had just said, how could the North change? Even if there was a change, they might not be able to subdue the complex forces in the North.

Lu Xun didn't finish what he said, but everyone already understood what he meant...

By then, I'm afraid the entire north will become a huge quagmire, and our country will be stuck in it.

If it really came to that, our army would be trapped in the north and would have no time to look south. I'm afraid we would lose both the north and the south!

For a moment, everyone's eyes were on Liu Wu.

Liu Wu looked into the distance and whispered to himself, "If we want to take over the Central Plains, we must have someone in the north to help us..."

Support?

Wei Yan and others were confused.

Wow! ~
In the distance, the river waves were rolling and the tide was rising.

A figure appeared in Liu Wu's mind...

That year in Xuchang City, Liu Wu took the Han Emperor Liu Xie to climb to the top of the palace.

The moon was bright in the sky. The two descendants of the Han Dynasty looked around and saw that the palace was full of Cao's soldiers and horses. The mighty Han emperor could not even mobilize a single soldier.

Liu Xie sighed: "The Han Dynasty is in such a difficult situation, what can we do?"

Liu Wu looked at the Han Emperor quietly: "If one day I lead my troops north, wipe out the traitors, and restore the Han Dynasty to a clear and bright sky, how will Your Majesty repay me?"

Return the clear and bright sky to the Han Dynasty?
Just based on the young man in front of me?
Liu Xie smiled bitterly, as if coaxing his younger brother: "If Awu really has such ability, then I will simply adopt you into the lineage of the Han Dynasty."

"On that day, I will definitely make Ah Wu my crown prince and heir to the throne of my great Han dynasty..."

……

On the top of Xiling City, Liu Wu was staring at the river in a daze.

How could he not know, it was just a joke.

Even though there are still many Han ministers in this world, his royal brother Liu Xie has always been just a puppet. An emperor without troops can only be a puppet. From the beginning to the end, the emperor has to rely on the strong soldiers and horses!

Suddenly, a fleet docked at the riverside, and several people who looked like servants got off the boats and walked quickly towards Xiling City.

Wei Yan and others looked surprised:

"Fleet? Could it be that they are coming from Jiangdong again?"

"No, this boat didn't come from the other side of the river. It seems to be coming from the west."

"West? Could it be Jiangling?"

Several people were surprised and talked in low voices.

"Lord!"

At this time, a soldier hurried to the top of the city wall and said: "There is a fleet on the river that wants to see the lord. The servants on the boat said that the fleet came from Gong'an and they are the lord's relatives."

public security?

Lord's relatives?

The people who came are Liu Xuande's people? !
Everyone was stunned.

Lu Xun looked strange. "The last time Liu Xuande came to Xiling to entertain the troops was outrageous enough. I didn't expect him to not give up and come again? What on earth does he want to do?"

"No, no, no. With Liu Xuande's personality, he will never come again in person after suffering such a great humiliation last time." Although Wei Yan did not stay under Liu Bei for a long time, he knew Liu Bei's character well.

At this moment, he stared at the river with interest: "It must be someone else who came this time, but I don't know who Liu Xuande sent this time."

As they were talking, the first person to come down from the boat came down. He was wearing a white helmet and armor, with a sword on his waist, and looked very heroic.

This person is...

Wei Yan was stunned: "Zhao Yun? This Liu Da'er sent Zhao Yun here?" Zhao Yun?

Hearing this name, Gan Ning subconsciously took a step forward: "Zhao Zilong, who went in and out of Changban Slope seven times! Is this the man?"

The Battle of Changbanpo!
Zhao Yun, holding the young master in his arms, broke through the encirclement, cut down two large banners, and seized three spears!

With stabbing and swords, more than fifty generals from Cao’s camp were killed!
After the Battle of Changbanpo, who among the military generals in the world did not know the name of Zhao Zilong of Changshan?
At this moment, Zhao Yun reported a young child in luxurious clothes coming down from the boat.

Lu Xun looked at the child and said to himself, "Zhao Yun saved the young master at Changban Slope. This child is dressed elegantly and Zhao Yun is so careful with him. Could it be that Ah Dou?"

The reason why the lord left Gong'an City was because of this Ah Dou...

Thinking of this,

Everyone subconsciously looked at Liu Wu.

Liu Wu looked out of the city, still expressionless and indifferent...

……

Outside the city, a team of about a hundred people, carrying a flag with the word "Liu" on it, walked to the outside of Xiling City.

Zhao Yun held Adou's hand and looked up at the city wall. He saw several figures standing on the city wall. The one in the middle was the eldest son Liu Wu.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar face, Zhao Yun had a complicated expression.

Today, Liu Wu has cities and territories, and he is entrenched in the north of the Yangtze River. Even Cao Cao was defeated by him. He is no longer the same as before.

It is probably too late for the lord to send Adou to talk to him about brotherhood.

My lord, my lord, if you had known this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?

A Dou, who was standing aside, looked at the Jiangling City in front of him with his eyes lit up. Liu Wu’s city is good... No, this is my city, my family business!
I heard from my father that Liu Wu now occupies more than a thousand miles of land, that's really a big place.

"Mine, all mine!" Adou muttered to himself subconsciously.

Zhao Yun didn't hear clearly what Adou said, and he couldn't care about Adou now.

"Young Master!" Zhao Yun shouted towards the top of the city wall, "Yun is following the orders of the lord and has brought Young Master Adou to see you!"

There was silence in the city and no one answered.

Adou beside him couldn't help it any longer and shouted at the top of his voice: "Brother, my father asked me to take you back to Gong'an! My father misses you so much..."

Liu Bei misses Liu Wu?

When Adou shouted, Zhao Yun beside him was stunned.

On the top of the city wall, everyone looked strange.

"Ah……"

Liu Wu, who had always had a blank expression on his face, was immediately amused by this sentence.

"Ha, ha ha..." Wei Yan also laughed, his face full of sarcasm: "Liu Da'er really knows how to pick the right time to pick up Zilie."

Lu Xun next to him had a strange look on his face: "It's a pity that Uncle Liu could think of taking the lord back to Gong'an at this time."

Although Gan Ning and Sun Shangxiang didn't say anything, they couldn't hide the contempt in their eyes.

When Liu Wu and Cao Ren were fighting, Liu Bei did not send anyone to take Liu Wu back to Gong'an.

When Liu Wu was fighting with Cao Cao, Liu Bei did not send anyone to take Liu Wu back to Gong'an.

Now that Liu Wu has defeated Cao Cao and controlled a thousand miles of territory, becoming a local lord, Liu Bei comes to take Liu Wu back to Gong'an at this time. How can everyone not see what Liu Bei is thinking?
The sun was getting hotter and hotter, Adou's face was already covered in sweat, and his feet were becoming more and more numb, but there was still no response from the city, and the city gates showed no sign of opening.

Adou has been spoiled since birth, how could he have ever suffered such pain?
For a moment, he cursed Liu Wu in his heart, but he still pretended to be pitiful and continued to shout: "Brother, Adou is so tired of standing, he can't stand anymore, please open the city gate and let me in."

However, apart from Adou's voice echoing outside the city, Xiling City was still silent and there was no response.

Seeing that he didn't know how long he would have to wait, Zhao Yun sighed and called out again: "Young Master! After all, Young Master Adou has the same father as you. He came from Gong'an to see you. Why are you so heartless?"

"Even if you don't see Master Adou, you and I are still old friends. Are you not going to see me now?"

After the words were spoken, a moment later, the figure on the city wall slowly disappeared.

Crunch! ~
After a while, the Xiling city gate finally made a grinding sound, and the city gate shook and opened with a bang.

Rumble~
A carriage slowly drove out of the Xiling city gate, and sitting in the carriage was Liu Wu.

Da da da! ~
On both sides of the carriage, several figures followed closely, and the two in the front were mighty and majestic, full of murderous intent.

Zhao Yun knew both of them. One was his former comrade Wei Yan and Wei Wenchang, and the other was actually the Jiangdong general Gan Ning and Gan Xingba?!

The carriage was getting closer and closer to Zhao Yun and others, and Wei Yan and Gan Ning were also getting closer and closer to them.

Thinking of Liu Wu's bravery, Wei Yan and Gan Ning's bravery...

Zhao Yun's heart slowly lifted up, and he clenched the hilt of the Qinggang Sword with his right hand.

Adou was so frightened by the opponent's approaching momentum that his throat became dry. He grabbed Zhao Yun's hand tightly and pressed against Zhao Yun's thigh.

Finally, the carriage stopped.

Liu Wu sat in the car and bowed to Zhao Yun: "Uncle, how are you?"

Seeing Liu Wu take the initiative to greet him, Zhao Yun's tense nerves finally relaxed a little: "Young Master, you have accomplished great things now, which I really admire."

Liu Wu laughed: "How dare I take on the word 'great cause'..."

Having said this, Liu Wu turned his gaze to A Dou beside Zhao Yun's legs.

Ah Dou's sight just happened to meet those bright eyes that could see straight into people's hearts...

In an instant, Adou felt that all his little thoughts had been seen through by the other party!

Crunch! ~
A huge fear enveloped Adou. His upper and lower teeth were chattering and his whole body was shaking slightly.

Liu Wu no longer paid attention to Adou, but just stretched out his hand to Zhao Yun and said: "This is not a place for chatting, please enter the city, uncle."

Seeing that Liu Wu had no intention of rejecting him, Zhao Yun completely let go of his worries: "Please in, sir."

Having said that, Zhao Yun walked towards Xiling City.

Adou next to him was about to follow him forward, but Liu Wu's cold eyes swept over him...

Instantly, Adou froze in place.

Da da da! ~
Sun Shangxiang, who was on the side of the carriage, rode forward.
She pointed the whip at Adou.

His expression was cold: "Did you get in?!"

　That’s all for today, good night brothers.
