The matter is urgent, related to Jiangdong's life and death.
That night, Gu Yong returned to Shouchun.
Rampage all the way, straight into Zhou Yu's mansion.
The room was brightly lit, and Zhou Yu was still thinking in front of the map.
He didn't even notice Gu Yong entering the house.
"Grand Governor, haven't you rested yet?"
Zhou Yu came to his senses and quickly stepped forward to greet him.
"Master Gu, what will be the outcome of this trip?"
Gu Yong smiled.
"Fortunately, I live up to my fate!"
Zhou Yu was immediately overjoyed.
"Okay! Okay! Mr. Gu is indeed a hero from Jiangdong, and his actions are indeed extraordinary!"
"Thank you Captain for the compliment."
Gu Yong accepted it calmly.
After completing such a difficult task, Gu Yong felt that he was worthy of this title.
"Captain, I wonder if there is a plan to defeat Qin?"
Zhou Yu hesitated for a moment and nodded lightly.
"Yes, yes, it's just..."
"Just what?"
Gu Yong asked quickly.
Zhou Yu looked embarrassed.
"It just requires a lot of troops!"
"How much does the Grand Governor need?"
Zhou Yu pulled Gu Yong to the map and kept pointing at it.
"Now there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses along the Lujiang River and Yangtze River, and Liu Zhang's headquarters has no less than 150,000 soldiers and horses!"
"The morale of the Qin army is high and their combat power is extraordinary. If they want to achieve complete victory, they must have several times the number of troops!"
Gu Yong nodded.
"What the Governor said is absolutely true! Can you give me a number?"
"That's it. I am going to personally lead an army of 50,000 people, let Cao Cao lead an army of 100,000 people, and Duke Wu will lead an army of 150,000 people to form an encirclement on three sides!"
"There are three hundred thousand troops, enough to completely annihilate Liu Zhang!"
"Three hundred thousand?"
Gu Yong was a little confused.
It’s not that it’s too much, it’s that it’s too little!
"Captain, as far as I know, the Commander has no less than 100,000 troops in Huainan, and there are more than 200,000 Cao thieves!"
"If we only need 300,000 troops, why do we need Duke Wu to cross the river?"
Zhou Yu smiled helplessly.
"Master Gu doesn't know something!"
"Cooperating with Cao Cao is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger! Always be on guard!"
"After all, without Liu Zhang, we and Cao Cao are enemies again."
Gu Yong frowned slightly, a little worried.
There is no cooperation yet, but such intrigues. Can you defeat Liu Zhang?
"Commander, where is Cao Cao? Wouldn't it be nice to ask him to send more troops?"
"Haha, Mr. Gu is so smart, why can't he see through it?"
Gu Yong laughed awkwardly and slightly cupped his hands.
"Please also ask the Governor to make it clear."
Zhou Yu also chuckled a few times.
"The reason is very simple. Cao Cao will also guard against us."
"At least, Cao Cao needs to retain half of his troops for defense. One hundred thousand is probably the limit!"
Gu Yong thought for a while and said what was difficult.
"Captain, there is no problem in persuading Duke Wu to send troops, but there are currently no naval forces in Jiangdong, let alone warships."
"How can an army of more than 100,000 people cross the river?"
Make bricks without straw.
We can't let more than 100,000 people swim over.
"Master Gu, don't worry, I will send the Chai Sang navy there."
"If we don't transfer Chai Sang Navy away, how can we give Cao Cao a reasonable reason to defeat this governor?"
Gu Yong suddenly realized.
"The governor is wise!"
"Master Gu, tell Duke Wu that you must dispatch elite and powerful generals to cross the river this time!"
"It concerns the situation for the next hundred years!"
There was something in Zhou Yu's words that made Gu Yong a little confused.
After thinking about it for a long time, I seemed to understand it, but I seemed not to understand it.
"What does the governor mean?"
"Haha, it's very simple. The situation forced us to unite with Wei to destroy Qin. However, the reason why Qin is strong is because of Liu Zhang alone."
"If we can capture Liu Zhang and Qin has nothing to fear, then wouldn't Cao Cao become our great enemy?"
Gu Yong opened his eyes slightly.
"The governor wants to kill Cao Cao as well?"
Zhou Yu smiled and nodded.
"Haha, if there is a chance, I will naturally not show mercy."
"In short, destroying Qin is the first priority, and destroying Wei is incidental. In this battle, my commander-in-chief's idea is to win all the credit!"
Seeing Zhou Yu who was so swearing and cruel, Gu Yong couldn't help but twitch.
This is too cruel.
Are you plotting against your allies before they even cooperate?
In this situation, can the two parties really cooperate?
"Commander, destroying Qin is a big plan. It is difficult to work together with Cao Cao. If we are disloyal, won't we give Liu Zhang a chance?"
"I think it's better not to have any twisted thoughts."
Zhou Yu's face darkened, a little displeased.
"What do you know!"
"The Wei army is good at land warfare. If we don't take this opportunity to kill and injure Wei army soldiers, how will we fight against the enemy in the future?"
"But..."
Gu Yong still wanted to persuade, but was scolded sharply by Zhou Yu.
"Okay! Just follow my orders! No need to say anything else."
Gu Yong sighed lightly and did not dare to say anything more.
Defeating Liu Zhang was inseparable from Zhou Yu, how could Gu Yong dare to offend him?
He had no choice but to accept his fate.
"I will obey the orders of the Grand Governor!"
Zhou Yu smiled again.
"Haha, that's right!"
"As long as you obey the orders of this governor, you will naturally gain victory!"
Gu Yong nodded repeatedly.
"Yes, I know."
After a few words, Gu Yong finished his report and was about to say goodbye.
"Grand Governor, I will return to Jiangdong immediately to report to Duke Wu, and I will stay soon."
"With Cao Cao, the governor can send someone to communicate with him."
Although it was getting late, Zhou Yu did not stay.
"Okay, sir, please take a trip."
"By the way, tomorrow the Japanese governor will let Chaisang's navy go south."
Gu Yong saluted and thanked him again.
"I would like to thank the Governor on behalf of Duke Wu."
"It doesn't matter."
Zhou Yu helped Gu Yong up and gave another warning.
"Master Gu, the Chaisang Navy has a very important stake. We must not fight the Qin army!"
"You must persuade Mr. Wu, and you must suppress the dissatisfaction of Xiaoxiao and don't do stupid things!"
Gu Yong was very happy to know that Zhou Yu was mocking Zhu Ran.
"Haha, don't worry, Commander, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"
"A traitor like Zhu Ran can't even think of making waves again!"
"After Liu Zhang is eliminated and Cao Cao is defeated in the future, the commander-in-chief will also need to eradicate these traitors!"
"Haha, what Mr. Gu said makes sense, but these matters must be discussed later."
Zhou Yu nodded in agreement, but his heart was filled with contempt.
He had no interest in participating in the fight between Sun Quan's diehard loyalists and the Jiangdong clan.
It's better to fight to the death!
If both sides suffer losses, the Huaisi faction can take advantage of the situation and rise.
If he is killed and sent away, the Huaisi faction can still take advantage of the opportunity to control the situation!
When the time comes, who has the final say in Jiangdong’s situation, or two opinions.
Zhou Yu's eyes flashed with the same fire.
It’s time for the world to change!
