Three Kingdoms: The identity of the financial master behind the scenes was exposed by Cao Cao

"Kong Ming!"

When Sun Ce saw Zhuge Liang fainting from anger, he immediately panicked and hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

He wanted to save face. Although he did not want to admit it, the fall of Chaisang was caused by him not listening to Zhuge Liang's advice and insisting on fighting Cao Cao.

But he also It is clear that Zhuge Liang is not to blame for the whole thing.

If Zhuge Liang had a shortcoming and was directly angry to death, who would be able to assist him and continue to fight against Cao Cao?

"Come, call the medical officer quickly to treat Kong Ming.~~"

The panicked Sun Ce yelled hoarsely.

On the flagship, everything immediately turned into a mess.

At dusk, inside the cabin.

Zhuge Liang took a long breath and finally woke up.

Sun Ce was overjoyed and hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhuge Liang and exchanged greetings with him. His previous strange resentment was completely gone.

"Kong Ming, don’t worry, I will definitely recover Chaisang and rescue your sister and brother! Sun

Ce solemnly assured him that he was right.

Zhuge Liang shook his head and said,"Your Majesty, please listen to my advice and don't attack Chaisang again. Please retreat to Jiangdong as soon as possible.""

As soon as these words came out, Sun Ce's expression changed immediately.

"Chaisang is my Jiangdong gateway, how can I hand it over to Cao Cao?"

"Your sister and brother were kidnapped by Cao Cao's thieves. Don't you want to rescue them? Sun

Ce asked excitedly

"Sister and third brother, I naturally want to save them"

"But Huang Zhong is a famous general in Jingzhou, and he has 7,000 elite Wei troops under his command. With our army's ability to attack fortresses, how can we recapture Chaisang in just a moment?"

"I suspect that the Cao thief must have marched by land and water, pursuing him all the way to Chaisang City."

"When the time comes, the king cannot attack the city, and is killed by Cao's thieves from behind. With enemies from both sides, the whole army is in danger of being annihilated!"

Zhuge Liang pointed out the stakes and tried hard to persuade Sun Ce.

Sun Ce was silent, with unwillingness flowing between his brows.

After a while,

Sun Ce let out a helpless sigh.

"Kong Ming, what you said makes sense. Chaisang City is indeed difficult to capture."

"But if such an important town is given up to Cao Cao, his army is heading straight towards the hinterland of our Kingdom of Wu. How can I resist it?"

"Kong Ming, it’s not that I am acting on my own initiative, but that Chaisang City is really important and I cannot afford to lose it."

Sun Ce had a look of helplessness on his face and expressed his difficulties.

But a flash of light flashed across Zhuge Liang's eyes and he sneered:"Your Majesty, I advise you to abandon the city and retreat eastward, just to regain Chaisang and buy enough time."

"Um?

Sun Ce perked up and asked urgently:"Kong Ming, what do you mean? Do you have some clever plan?"

Zhuge Liang smiled confidently:"Your Majesty only needs to give an order to gather all the weapons and craftsmen in Jiangdong immediately and return them to the ministers for dispatch. I will naturally have the means to defeat Cao's thieves and recover Chaisang.""

"Weaponsmith? Sun Ce was puzzled and said:"

Kong Ming, what does your plan to recover Chaisang have to do with the weapon craftsman?" Zhuge

Liang said secretly:"This plan is related to the survival of our country Wu. There must be no leakage until the last moment. Please don't ask me. Your Majesty just needs to trust me.""

Sun Ce remained silent, looking at Zhuge Liang with doubtful eyes.

He couldn't help but think of the scene when Zhuge Liang claimed to get a hundred thousand arrows for him in one night during the Battle of Chibi.

That time, Zhuge Liang did the same thing. Full of confidence and an attitude of swearing.

As a result, the straw boat failed to borrow arrows, so he just played for Cao Yuan and hooked up with Pang Tong.

This time, Zhuge Liang was equally confident.

How could Sun Ce not be suspicious.

See Sun Ce questioned, Zhuge Liang put away his sly smile, struggled to get up, and bowed seriously to Sun Ce:

"I would like to issue a military order, please your Majesty, please trust me!"

"If I cannot recover Chaisang for your Majesty, I am willing to submit to your Majesty's military law!"

Sun Ce looked stern. He didn't expect Zhuge Liang to be so confident that he issued another military order.

"The last time he issued a military order, he suffered forty military sticks. He had learned such painful lessons. If he was not sure of victory, he would not be so arrogant in issuing a military order again......"

As soon as Sun Ce's thoughts changed, he forcibly put away the doubts and doubts in his heart.

"good! Sun

Ce said happily:"I will listen to you just once. I will not attack Chaisang first. I will leave all the best weapons and craftsmen in Wu State to your disposal. I would like to see what you, Wolong, have in store for you." I can regain Chaisang City for my king!"

Zhuge Liang breathed a sigh of relief.

After the plan was decided, Sun Ce went to convey the order, ordering the five hundred warships not to land, cross Chaisang City, and retreat to the downstream fortress Congyang City.

Zhuge Liang got up and pushed open the hatch. , came to the side of the boat.

Looking at the brightly lit Chaisang City, he couldn't help clenching his fists

"Sister, third brother, I hope you remember that you are the children of my Zhuge family. You must not bow to the Cao thief and insult my reputation, Zhuge Liang."

"If you persist for a few more days, I will soon defeat the Cao thieves, recover Chaisang, and rescue you!"

……

Two days later, Chaisang City.

One hundred thousand Wei troops marched by land and water and arrived at Chaisang City in a mighty manner.

Pseudo Wu Palace, main hall.

Cao Cao was high-spirited and sat high on the throne.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I followed Ziyou's plan and successfully attacked Chaisang. I am reporting back to your Majesty!"

Huang Zhong went to the palace and paid homage with great enthusiasm.

Cao Cao laughed and said:"Han Sheng, you are indeed old and strong, and you can be called an honest person in this world. I will regain Jiangdong in the future, and you will be the first to do so!"

After receiving Cao Cao's high praise, Huang Zhong let out a long breath.

He knew that with this merit, he had established a firm foothold in the Wei State and won a place.

And all this, thanks to Cao Yuan's recommendation, he had the opportunity to establish himself.

Huang Zhong looked gratefully at Cao Yuan. Then

Huang

Zhong cupped his hands and said,"Your Majesty, after I captured Chaisang, I sent troops to search for the remnants of the Wu army. I also captured Zhuge Liang's sister and second brother alive. Let the king do whatever he wants."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up.

The members of the Zhuge family were actually captured alive!

This was an unexpected surprise.

Rolling his eyes, Cao Cao said happily:"Ziyou has made great contributions to the plan, so I will give him Zhuge Liang's sister. As a reward, I will escort Zhuge Jun up to me. I will interrogate him personally!"

As soon as these words came out,

Cao Yuan trembled and looked at Cao Cao with surprised eyes.

What is going on with Boss Cao? This matchmaker addiction has happened again and he wants to give himself a woman again?

Moreover, she is Zhuge Liang's sister?
