Chapter 944 (1/2)

Hearing Sun Quan's cry, Jiang Dongjun's generals suddenly realized what had happened. They rushed into the house and began to wail.

Zhu Huan also lowered his head and looked sad in his eyes. However, he could not enter the room, so he had to grieve silently here.

”Tut, I didn't expect Zhou Gongjin to be so popular in Jiangdong army.” Gan Ning sighed.

”Zhou Gongjin is really a great man of his generation. When there was only one county in Yuzhang, Zhou Gongjin unexpectedly raided Jingnan and won half of Jingzhou. If it had not been for our Xiliang army, it would have been hard to predict the outcome.” Gao Chong shook his head.

At that time, King Wen of Zhou won the support of two-thirds of the princes in the world, and did not launch a decisive battle against the Shang Dynasty. Until his son Jifa, namely King Wu of Zhou, defeated the Shang Dynasty in the first battle of Muye, King Zhou boarded the Lutai and burned himself. This was the general trend. Even though Zhou Yu was such an outstanding person, he could not reverse the general situation. He could only fight against it.

After a period of time, Sun Quan came out with red eyes and bowed his hand to Gao Chong and said, ”commander Gao, please report to the general for me. Sun Quan is willing to write a letter and send an envoy to Jiaozhou to persuade him to surrender to Jiaozhi Prefecture.”

”Oh? This is a major event. I want to ask the general for instructions first. ” Gao Chong was surprised.

Originally, Gao Chong was just preparing to pacify Jingnan. As a result, Sun Quan planned to persuade Jiaozhou to surrender. Of course, this is a good thing.

But... Who knows if Sun Quan has any other thoughts? Was he going to persuade SHIXIE to surrender, or did he contact him to send troops northward to fight against the Xiliang army? After all, the one who went to Jiaozhou was not only a letter from Sun Quan, but also an emissary. Who knows what the messenger said?

”It's natural.” Sun Quan bowed his head.

Gao Chong immediately sent a horse to Luoyang to send letters day and night. Although there was no instant communication in this era, there was a post station to facilitate communication. There is a post station every dozens of miles, and there are horses in it.

Once the matter is important, the messenger will take a fast horse, change people in the middle of the post station, do not change horses, quickly deliver the message. Because these horses usually have enough physical strength in the post station, the emissary can keep the fastest speed all the way.

Yang Guifei likes to eat the characteristic fruit litchi produced in Lingnan. The messenger rides back and forth to deliver the fresh litchi to Yang Guifei, which shows the speed of the post horse.

However, Gao Chong's emissary soon arrived in Luoyang, and Liu Ye naturally agreed with him. Although Jiaozhou has few soldiers, it is far away, and it is too far to the south.

As you know, the climate in ancient times was much hotter and humid than today. Jiaozhou in the Han Dynasty, that is, the Guangdong and Guangxi areas, has the same temperature as today's equatorial region. If soldiers march south, they will not be acclimatized. According to the records of the Three Kingdoms, in fact, Cao Cao's army on the southern expedition was not burned by Zhou Yu, but because he was not acclimatized and infected with the plague, so Cao Cao ordered to burn down the warships and retreat.

Liu Ye readily agreed with Sun Quan to persuade him to surrender SHIXIE, so he went south with Sun Quan's letter.

Jiaozhi county.

”I'm going to ask the rebel emissary kaize and meet with the Shigong.”

”Hehe, it's sun's emissary. Please get up quickly. I don't know why Mr. Kan came to my Jiaozhou?”

Facing each other in the assembly hall, in the middle of the seat was a middle-aged man with proper clothes and bearing. He seemed to be a learned man. He was the elder brother of SHIXIE, prefect of Jiaozhi, and the elder brother of Shiwu and Shiyi of Nanhai Prefecture. Now he is the head of Jiaozhou.

And the man opposite him is resolute. Although he is wearing a long shirt, his temperament is more like a warrior, but he is a famous Jiangdong scholar kaize.

SHIXIE blocked Jiaozhou and the outside world, so he did not know about the war in Jingnan.
