Everyone followed Zhou Yu's eyes and landed on Lu Su.

"I?"

Lu Su pointed at himself, with a confused look on his face.

"What, Zijing doesn’t dare to go? Zhou

Yu asked with a smile

"If the king has your destiny, I will be obliged to do so. Lu

Su's attitude was clear, but he said:"It's just that everyone in the world knows about my friendship with you, Gong Jin. I went to Wei camp, but I was afraid that Cao Cao wouldn't believe it.""

"Therefore, we still need to use some means to ensure that Cao Cao believes in you."

There was a hint of mystery in Zhou Yu's eyes.

Sun Ce was refreshed and asked Zhou Yu if he had any clever ideas to make Cao Cao not doubt Lu Su.

"As everyone knows, the Lu family is one of the three richest businessmen in the world. The family has a wealth of money and food that rivals the country."

"Your Majesty, you can use the excuse of lack of food to seize Lu family's money and food for military use, and I will follow suit."

"At that time, Zijing will be able to use this as an excuse to have a grudge against the king and me, and justifiably go to the north bank to surrender."

"I would like to ask, will the second Cao still doubt Zijing?"

Zhou Yu explained his plan with a sneer.

Sun Ce suddenly understood and said happily:"Gong Jin's plan is very clever. Zijing, I will lend you hundreds of thousands of grain and grass first. After the performance is over, After winning this battle, I will return the favor again"

"If the king is really short of food, it is only right that I offer all the remaining food from the Lu family to me."

"However, I'm afraid that if I can't take on a big job, Cao Yuan will see my flaws."

Lu Su had no confidence in himself.

Sun Ce said seriously:"Zijing, this matter is related to the survival of our country of Wu. No matter what, you must take up this important task!"

Sun Ce is like this, how dare Lu Su refuse anymore.

He calmed down and raised his hand with emotion:"Since the king has his destiny, Su will go through fire and water without hesitation!"

"good! Sun

Ce was then satisfied and laughed and said,"Then let's act according to the plan and set another trap for Cao Cao!""

……

On the north bank of the Yangtze River, Weiying.

In the afternoon.

Cao Cao took Cao Yuan and other advisers and generals to watch Lü Meng train his navy by the river.

On the Yangtze River, the winds and waves are much stronger than those on the Han River.

Even if it is a dragon boat, it will inevitably be bumpy on this river.

The earlier eight thousand sailors could barely adapt to the bumps on the river, but the newly trained sailors of more than ten thousand suffered a lot.

"Training troops on the Yangtze River is indeed ten times more difficult than on the Han River!"

Cao Cao sighed.

"The king wants to believe in Lu Meng's ability. He said that if he can become a navy soldier in three months, he will definitely succeed. Cheng

Yu comforted him.

Cao Cao said,"I have no doubts about Ziming's ability. I am worried that if Ma Teng, with Jia Xu as his assistant, captures Hanzhong in less than three months, he will be in trouble again." China poses a threat"

"Don't worry, my king, maybe we can defeat Sun Ce without waiting for the naval army to be trained."

Cao Yuan comforted him in a meaningful way.

Cao Cao's eyes flashed, and he was about to speak.

Dian Wei stepped forward and said,"Your Majesty, there is another scribe who calls himself Lu Su and has come to the north bank to meet him. King"

"Lu Su?"

"Is it Lu Su, the head of the Lu family, one of the three richest men in the world?"

Cao Cao has obviously heard of this name.

Cheng Yu said:"It is this person, but I heard that this Lu Su is a good friend of Zhou Yu, and he actually came to the shore. Is it possible that he also wants to surrender to the king?"

Suspicion flashed in Cao Cao's eyes.

Cao Yuan sneered,"Your Majesty, I still don't remember that I once said that Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu must have a back-up plan, and this Lu Su should be the back-up plan. Cao

Cao suddenly became interested and waved his hand and said:"Then summon Lu Su. I want to see what tricks Zhuge villagers and others will use to plot against me!""

A moment later, the king's tent.

Lu Su took a deep breath, pretended to be calm, and stepped into the tent.

Cao Cao was already sitting on the throne, staring at him with cold eyes.

"I, Lu Su, pay my respects to the King of Wei!"

Lu Su bowed his head to the end and bowed deeply.

Cao Cao said coldly:"Lu Su, as Sun Ce's counselor, you secretly crossed the river to see me. Are you trying to surrender me?"

"The king knows things like a god! Lu

Su bowed his head again and said sternly:"I risk my life to come here this time because I am coming to submit to your Majesty.""

A sarcastic sneer sounded.

Lu Su shuddered slightly, and couldn't help but panic.

Cao Cao said coldly:"I heard that you and Zhou Yu are good friends, and Sun Ce also thinks highly of you. You said you would come to surrender. King, will I believe you?"

Lu Su breathed a sigh of relief and thought that his guess was indeed correct. Cao Cao was indeed suspicious.

"Fortunately, Gong Jin had already prepared a countermeasure...."

After Lu Su secretly rejoiced, he raised his head and faced Cao Cao, with a look of anger on his face.

"I originally wanted to serve Sun Ce, but because of lack of food, Sun Ce forcibly confiscated 500,000 hu of grain and grass from my Lu family!"

"The minister asked Zhou Yu to intercede. Unexpectedly, Zhou Yu thought that the overall situation was the most important thing. Not only did he not help the minister to persuade Sun Ce, but he also fully supported it."

"Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were ruthless and unjust, and treated their ministers like this. I was already extremely disappointed with them. How could I still sacrifice my life for Sun Ce!"

"Therefore, I was so disheartened that I risked my life and came to seek refuge with the king!"

Lu Su told the cause and effect with a look of resentment on his face.

The suspicion on Cao Cao's face gradually disappeared, and he was faintly convinced by Lu Su's seamless reasons.

He then looked at Cao Yuan.

Cao Yuan nodded slightly. , indicating that he would accept Lu Su’s surrender

"Come, give me a seat and some wine for you!"

Cao Cao's cold and questioning attitude was immediately replaced by a smiling face and enthusiasm.

"Gong Jin's plan was really brilliant. He really managed to hide it from the thief Cao, and even Cao Yuan didn't notice it....."

Lu Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, the atmosphere became much more pleasant.

Cao Cao greatly appreciated Lu Su and comforted him.

The foreshadowing is almost done.

Lu Su then raised his hand seriously and said:"I have countless heroes in Jiangdong, all of whom are dissatisfied with Sun Ce. They only hope that the king will come to Jiangdong as soon as possible. When he comes, they will eat a pot of pulp to welcome the king!""

"Very good, very good! Cao

Cao became energetic and said:"If you ask the heroes from the east of the Yangtze River to wait patiently for a few more days, I will be able to train as a naval force in less than three months. When the time comes to defeat Sun Ce, I will go eastward along the river and take him directly." Koto!"

"Three months, does it still need so long?"

Lu Su pretended to be surprised on his face.

Cao Cao sighed:"The bumps on the Yangtze River are far worse than those on the Han River. The soldiers can't stand firmly on the boat, let alone bend their bows and arrows. Even though I have Lu Meng, I want to practice It is not easy to form a naval force strong enough to defeat Sun Ce."

"Too"

"Most of the king's soldiers are from the north, so it is understandable that they are not used to the bumps on the Yangtze River. Lu

Su nodded slightly, but his eyes flashed,"Your Majesty, although Su is not talented, he has a plan. In less than half a month, he can help your Majesty overcome the problem that the soldiers are not used to bumps.""

"What's Zijing's clever plan?"

Cao Cao suddenly became excited.

Lu Su smiled and said four words slowly:

"Chained together!"
