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

"Your Majesty, the situation is over, retreat quickly.~~"

Cheng Pu stopped Sun Ce and persuaded him hard.

Sun Ce lost his mind and shouted in a panic:"If I don't retreat, how can I be defeated again and again by Cao Cao? I will fight to the death with Cao Cao."~~"

The words have not yet fallen

"Whoosh~~"

A sharp arrow shot through the air.

Cheng Pu was unprepared and hit him right in the face.

The Jiangdong veteran screamed and fell under his horse.

"Old General Demou——"

Sun Ce exclaimed.

Cheng Pu, who landed on the ground, was motionless and dying.

Sun Ce was extremely sad and angry, and burst into tears.

But Cheng Pu's death also pulled him back from madness and regained his sanity.

"I cannot die here. I want to go back and kill the Zhuge villager. I also want to avenge Demou. I cannot die.——"

He slapped his teeth hard, turned his horse and fled.

The defeated Wu army was chased by the Wei army and fled towards the east coast.

……

River bank.

More than five hundred Wu army warships were anchored on the shore.

Sun Ce led all his troops forward, but at this time only nearly 3,000 men were left to guard the warships, leaving Lu Su to take charge.

On the flagship.

Zhuge Liang and Lu Su stood side by side, looking in the direction of Chaisang.

"Kong Ming, can your Zhuge Liannu really defeat the Wei army? I have vouched for you with my head on my neck."

Lu Su couldn't help but look at Zhuge Liang, his expression and tone full of worry.

Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said calmly:"Zijing, you can rest assured, I guarantee that the head on your neck will not fall to the ground. Even if Cao Yuan has Tongtian again. Even with all my resourcefulness, I can't defeat my repeating crossbow!"

Seeing Zhuge Liang so confident, Lu Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"If this battle can be won, the King of Wu will be able to completely dispel his suspicion of Kong Ming and break Cao Yuan's alienation plan. Lu

Su comforted Zhuge Liang again.

Zhuge Liang laughed at himself:"After all, I am not Mizhouro. No matter how great my achievements are, I am afraid that I will never have the absolute trust of King Wu."

Lu Su sighed and said,"Although King Wu is a powerful warrior, his popularity is indeed a bit lacking."……"

Before the words were spoken, Lu Su realized that what he said was inappropriate, so he had to swallow it back, and his eyes hinted at Zhuge Liang.

"Zijing, I heard that Mr. Zhongmou was a courteous and virtuous corporal, approachable and quite the demeanor of a wise master. I wonder if this is true or not?"

Zhuge Liang lowered his voice and suddenly asked:

"Mr. Zhongmou indeed has the style of a wise master. Lu

Su nodded slightly, but sighed:"But after all, he is the second son of the Sun family. He is destined to only assist the King of Wu. He has the style of a wise master, but does not have the luck of a monarch.""

"If the Lord of Jiangdong is Mr. Zhongmou……"

Zhuge Liang also stopped talking without saying anything clearly.

Lu Su smiled bitterly and explained:"I know what you want to say, Kong Ming, but the position has been decided. You and I should not have other thoughts. We can only do our best to assist the King of Wu."

Zhuge Liang sighed softly, but He said happily:"Forget it, as long as the King of Wu can use my repeated crossbow to win this battle, he can at least capture Jingzhou, occupy half of the south of the Yangtze River, fight against Cao Cao's thieves, and leave his name in history in the future, and he can be regarded as a great hero."."

The words just fell.

On the west road, several cavalry came, and the leader was none other than Chen Wu.

"Kong Ming's military advisor, Lu Zhizong, something bad is going on, something is going wrong.——"

Chen Wu, clad in red and colorful clothes, dismounted from his horse, jumped off the trestle, and stumbled onto the warship.

Zhuge Liang and Lu Su's expressions changed slightly, and they looked at each other anxiously.

Lu Su hurriedly helped Chen Wu up and asked,"General Chen, what's going on? What's going on?"

"The king was defeated by the Wei army outside Chaisang City. Almost the entire army was wiped out. He is leading his defeated army to flee this way!"

Chen Wu cried out

"Buzz!"

Zhuge Liang's head was pounding, his body was shaking a few times, and the feather fan in his hand was so shocked that he dropped it. His shocked and stunned expression seemed to have heard the most incredible thing in the world.

Lu Su also changed his face in shock. He exclaimed:"How is this possible? Your Majesty is equipped with Kong Ming's repeated crossbows and Tai Shici's three thousand cavalry. How is it possible that the entire army is annihilated?""

Zhuge Liang also came to his senses, stepped forward and grabbed Chen Wu, but Wolong's calmness and elegance was completely gone.

"Tell me, tell me clearly, why did the king lose?"

He yelled at Chen Wu, almost hysterical.

"It's Zhuge Liannu!"

Chen Wu cried and said:"The Wei army is actually equipped with Zhuge's serial crossbows. It can completely destroy our cavalry by surprise. Then the infantry and cavalry can take advantage of the situation to cover up the attack. Only then can we severely damage our army!"

Zhuge Liang's angry and excited expression froze in a moment of astonishment.

The expression in his eyes was as if he had heard a fantasy.

The Zhuge Liannu was his original artifact, built in secret, and just presented to Sun Ce.

Wei Junzhong , how could there be Zhuge Liannu?

Zhuge Liang was completely stunned, frozen in place, with thousands of questions echoing in his mind

"I heard that Cao Yuan is very good at making weapons. The Mo Dao and the Divine Arm Bow are all his masterpieces!"

"Could it be that, like you, Kong Ming, he also happened to create a repeating crossbow?"

Lu Su guessed in a hoarse voice.

Zhuge Liang was shocked, shuddered, and suddenly realized.

Lu Su's guess was right.

Except for Cao Yuan, nothing can explain why Cao Cao's army is equipped with Zhuge Liannu..The

Wei army's continuous crossbow must be built for Cao Yuan!

"Why, this repeating crossbow is an artifact that I have just created after years of hard work and study!"

"How could that Cao Yuan be created?"

"Why? Could it be that he really came down from heaven to punish and restrain me, Zhuge Liang? Zhuge Liang murmured to himself, gnashing his teeth, with grief, anger and despair flowing on his face.

Lu Su also said sadly:"Those 30,000 troops were the last family of King Wu. Now they have been destroyed by Cao's thieves. How can they hold on?" Jiangdong, what can you do to resist Cao Cao?~~"

Just when the two of them were feeling sad.

On the road, groups of defeated soldiers were approaching the shore.

A king's flag with the word"Wu" is looming, symbolizing that Sun Ce is still alive.

Lu Su put away his sadness and ordered all the ships to prepare to receive Sun Ce ashore and retreat to the river.

"Wait!"

Zhuge Liang stopped Lu Su, and the sadness and anger on his face changed to a serious and stern look.

Taking a deep breath, he lowered his voice and said:"You quickly give the order, and all the ships should leave the shore immediately and retreat to the river.

Lu Su was taken aback and said in confusion:"Kong Ming, if we just retreat to the river, what will your Majesty do? Aren't we going to be surrounded and killed by the river for Cao's thieves?""

"Have you forgotten, I have issued a military order, and you also vouched for me with your head!"

"If Sun Ce gets on the ship alive, you and I will be dead!"

Zhuge Liang's face was gloomy and he pierced the window paper.

Lu Su suddenly realized this and couldn't help but shudder.
