Now Chaisangjun has no coach, and it is a time when people's hearts are in doubt.
After Sun Quan saw Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yu's relatives, he frowned and looked at Zhou Shan beside him, and then called the lieutenant general to the side hall for questioning.
"What's going on?" Sun Quan looked at everyone with a frown on his forehead.
Ling Tong was young and energetic, and he said indignantly: "My lord, although the Governor's arrow wounds occur frequently, they are definitely not fatal. When we returned, we passed by Jiangxia. The guard Fu Shiren once brought wine and meat to the dock to work for the army. Everyone suspected that those wine and meat were among the people. poisonous..."
"Do you suspect that Liu Bei sent someone to poison him? You can't talk nonsense without proof. After all, the two families are still in alliance to fight against Cao Cao." Sun Quan looked around at everyone.
Ling Tong clasped his fists and said, "My lord, the last time the governor got sick was right after he left Jiangxia. His face turned black, and it seemed like he was poisoned..."
"Don't talk nonsense about public achievements." Lu Su reminded.
"After we left Xinye, we originally planned to attack Jiangling. Perhaps the news was leaked, and Liu Bei became angry and retaliated..." Ling Tong argued.
"Gongji, you seem to have something in your words." Lu Su frowned and stared at him.
At this time keN*s H*uF aN*G .*cO*m Zhang Si. Ling Tong responded with a cold look and snorted: "In short, the governor's death was strange."
Very few people in the army knew about the news that Zhou Yu wanted to take Jiangling. They did not tell Lu Meng and others until the fleet arrived at Jingling. However, Sun Quan and Lu Su had already known about it in advance, so Sun Quan was not surprised after Ling Tong told him.
Zhou Yu's death was so bizarre and sudden that Ling Tong became suspicious of Lu Su. Because Lu Su, as a marching staff officer, spent a lot of time with Zhou Yu, he must have known about the plan to attack Jiangling in advance, and Lu Su had entered Jiangling for several hours.
After Zhou Yu's death, Lu Su temporarily exercised the power of the governor and commanded the army on the way back to Chaisang. This also made Ling Tong and other powerful generals unhappy. How could he just replace him like this?
Sun Quan looked at Ling Tong with a strange look in his eyes and thought to himself, are you targeting Lu Zijing, or are you insinuating me?
"Zijing, what do you think?" Sun Quan asked.
Lu Su clasped his fists and said, "As soon as Cao Cao's army arrived in Xinye, Ambassador Liu sent Guan Yu and Zhang Fei to help by land and water, and took away most of Jingzhou's troops. If he is really afraid of the governor, why not kill him with Cao Cao's hands?"
"Isn't Mr. Zijing talking nonsense out of thin air?" Ling Yi looked disdainful.
Lu Su also discovered that this man was targeting him, so he said calmly: "If Gong Jin really died of poisoning, just invite the widow to open the coffin and conduct an autopsy. Why should we argue here..."
"That's the best." Ling Tong angrily said.
"Open the coffin?" Sun Quan's head was buzzing and he looked very hesitant.
Seeing this, Lu Fan said: "My lord, as the saying goes, the dead are the most important. It is really rude and inappropriate to open the coffin and disturb the peace of the governor..."
Sun Quan nodded, "What Zi Heng said is true. I will send people to investigate the matter of Jiangxia's labor force. You should take care of your own people first."
"Wei." Ling Tong lowered his head.
"Lord, the three armies cannot be without a commander for a day. They must appoint a new commander as soon as possible..." Lu Fan continued.
"Mr. Cheng has a high prestige in the army and is qualified to take on this important task." Ling Tong quickly spoke up.
Sun Quan nodded, then waved his hand and said, "I'll think about it first, and you guys should step back first."
"Wei." The generals clasped their fists and walked out of the side hall slowly.
"Zijing, wait a moment." Sun Quan called Lu Su alone.
When only two people were left, Sun Quan asked calmly: "Ling Gongji seems to be targeting you?"
"Su has a clear conscience." Lu Su replied loudly.
"Now Gan Ning has voted for Liu Bei. It seems that Gongzhi has hated him too. Now that Hefei has not seized the opportunity, Xinye will certainly not be able to hold on. The situation has returned to before Chibi. Zijing has always been able to observe the general trend of the world. When Do you have any tips for me?" Sun Quan asked.
Lu Su thought for a while and said: "The current situation is slightly better than before Chibi. Although Cao Cao still dominates the north, his strength is not as good as before. In addition, Liu Xuande is far better than Liu Biao. As long as we continue to maintain our alliance and let Liu Bei contain Cao Cao in Jingzhou, We will use Hefei as a breakthrough point, and we will be able to invade the Central Plains with a two-pronged attack."
"Hmm... In fact, the aristocratic families in Wu Hui have some complaints about the battlefield in Jingzhou. Zijing's words really resonate with me. I want you to succeed Gong Jin as the governor. Zijing must manage this army well." Sun Quan said.
Zhou Yu wrote a letter to Sun Quan, but he couldn't take it out because of Ling Tong. At this time, Sun Quan suddenly ordered a general, and Lu Su was very surprised.
"I have followed Duke Cheng since he was an old general. His prestige in the army is very high. How can Su He De..."
"As the Grand Governor of Jiangdong, I need someone who is stable and understands the overall situation. I have looked at all the generals and only Zijing is suitable."
Lu Su was a little moved when he heard this, so he handed Zhou Yu's letter in his arms, "When the Grand Governor was dying, he asked me to write a letter for him. I never had the chance to give it to the lord..."
Sun Quan took Zhou Yu's suicide note and sighed leisurely: "Gong Jin has the qualifications to serve as a king, and his last words are consistent with what I thought. It is a pity that he died of a sudden illness. I will announce his new appointment after his funeral..."
"Wei." Lu Su nodded.
During the mourning period for Zhou Yu, Lu Meng took Cheng Pu's remnant army back to Chaisang in a fighting ship. After Xinye resisted tenaciously, the city was still defeated, and less than 20% of the soldiers escaped back to the ship.
Cheng Pu and Han Dang were full of anger along the way and clamored to go back to Jiangdong to find Sun Quan to file a lawsuit against Zhou Yu.
The fighting ship docked at Chaisang Military Port and found that all the naval warships that had been withdrawn were here. Everyone thought that Zhou Yu was here, so they rushed ashore angrily and planned to go to the city to settle accounts with Zhou Yu.
The more people walked into the city, the more they noticed something was wrong. When they finally saw Zhou Yu's mourning hall, all their grievances and anger disappeared. After all, the dead were the most important.
When Ling Tong and other generals heard that Cheng Pu had returned, they gathered together to see Sun Quan.
Sun Quan saw the purpose of everyone's visit and kept silent about the new governor. Instead, he asked: "Mr. Cheng, how is the situation on the battlefield in Xinye?"
Cheng Pu cupped his hands and replied: "Cao Cao's attack was fierce. Yi Gong and I defended the city for more than ten days and defeated it. If it weren't for Yun Chang's cover, no one would be able to fight back..."
"Guan Yu is still in Xinye?" Sun Quan asked.
Cheng Pu shook his head: "They withdrew to the Han River to block the pursuit of our rear. They should have returned to Jingzhou now..."
"Cao Cao led his army to Jingzhou again?" Sun Quan said to himself.
Lu Su said: "Capturing Xinye so quickly should have caused a lot of damage. I don't think Cao Cao will continue to go south. After all, the pressure from the lord in Hefei is always there..."
"Lord, why didn't you take advantage of the main force of Cao's army to capture Hefei in Xinye?" Cheng Pu asked.
"Just as I was about to land in the besieged city, I suddenly heard the bad news about Gong Jin, so I had no intention of fighting." Sun Quan shook his head.
"My lord, Duke Cheng has also returned. When will the new governor be appointed?" Ling Tong asked.
Sun Quan frowned. He originally wanted to wait until Zhou Yu was buried before making an announcement. At this time, faced with the generals forcing him to go to the palace, he said sternly: "Lu Zijing is a loyal and resourceful man. He is a minister who can be entrusted with important matters. I will make you the commander-in-chief." The three armies.”
"Su Dingran will go all out to repay the trust of the lord and Gong Jin." Lu Su bowed his hands.
Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Lu Meng, Ling Tong and other generals were all at a loss. Before this, they had always thought that Cheng Pu would take over. Sun Quan's operation was directly confusing to them.
Control the big one and control the owl. Sun Quan held up Zhou Yu's letter in his hand and solemnly said: "Gong Jin's last words before his death were to recommend Lu Zi to replace him. This view coincides with mine. You should inherit his legacy and obey the orders of Governor Lu from now on." ."
"Wei." All the generals in the palace responded in unison.
