Along the way, Zhou Yu was confused and didn't even know how to get back to the Governor's Mansion.
Finally, it was Lu Meng who reminded him and he finally recovered.
The fact that siege vehicles are not afraid of flames was a huge blow to Zhou Yu!
"Grand Governor, please rest first. The general...is going to inspect the city defense."
Lu Meng slightly cupped his hands to signal his resignation and left quickly.
The atmosphere is too depressing and I really can't stay here for long.
"son..."
Zhou Yu raised his hand, wanting to retain Lu Meng.
But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them again.
So what can I do to retain him? What can I say?
Today, Zhou Yu doesn't even know what to discuss with Lu Meng.
Silently watching Lu Meng disappear before his eyes, Zhou Yu could only lament.
I couldn't help but have serious doubts about my decision.
Is it really right to be an enemy of Liu Zhang?
If he had led the Huainan people and the Chaisang navy to surrender from the beginning, I am afraid the reward would have been extremely amazing!
Now the elites have been wiped out, and the Chaisang navy has been completely wiped out.
What benefits can be gained by surrendering again?
The originally bright prospect suddenly fell into darkness.
Zhou Yu held his forehead and sighed again.
"Why..."
"Husband."
A sweet call came to his ears, and Zhou Yu raised his melancholy face.
It's his wife, Xiao Qiao.
"Madam, why are you here?"
Xiao Qiao supported Zhou Yu and walked into the house while waiting.
"Husband, what's wrong with you? Is the war not going well?"
It was okay not to ask, but when Zhou Yu was asked, he immediately froze on the spot.
When he thought about boasting to Xiao Qiao that morning, he was mercilessly slapped in the face by reality.
I really don’t have the face to face my wife.
"Madam, for my husband...hey!"
I wanted to be honest with each other, but when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say them out at all.
Zhou Yu's sense of shame did not support his pretentiousness at all.
"Husband, please go inside first."
Xiao Qiao was quick to think and probably guessed the problem.
As a woman, she couldn't change anything, so she could only let Zhou Yu go into the house first to settle down.
"That's fine..."
After entering the room, Xiao Qiao removed the tea and directly brought a pot of wine to Zhou Yu.
He filled a full glass and handed it to Zhou Yu.
"Husband, I don't know anything about the battle between the two armies, and I have given you some ideas."
"If your husband is ignoring you now, please drink this cup. I will drink with your husband!"
With that said, he poured himself another glass.
Zhou Yu took it and drank it in one gulp.
Xiao Qiao also fulfilled his words and drank it all in one gulp with Zhou Yu.
However, drinking a glass of wine obviously has no effect.
Xiao Qiao filled it up again very considerately.
After three drinks in a row, Zhou Yu's face turned a little rosy, and he was obviously drunk.
"Madam, I'm afraid my husband will break his promise."
"The Qin army is elite, and Liu Zhang is treacherous and husband... I'm afraid he is no match for him..."
Xiao Qiao was stunned. She knew Zhou Yu very well.
Generally speaking, Zhou Yu would not give up easily unless he was in a desperate situation.
Now that he is saying this to her, you can imagine how bad the situation is.
"Husband, since Liu Zhang raised his army, he has defeated the Yellow Turbans, worshiped the Qiang and Hu, and fought against more than ten princes at Hulao Pass! Such a person is naturally extremely difficult to deal with!"
"It is rare for my husband to be able to resist the Qin army with a single county and almost severely damage the Qin army several times!"
"This defeat is not a crime of war! What can Cao Cao do who occupies the Central Plains and the seven states of Hebei? Isn't it the same that he was beaten by Liu Zhang to the point where he abandoned his armor and fled in panic?"
Xiao Qiao lowered his head and sighed softly.
"Husband, please be more open-minded. Maybe losing to Liu Zhang is not too unbearable."
Zhou Yu trembled all over, and the hand holding the wine glass was shaking slightly.
If anyone dared to preach to him like this before, Zhou Yu would be killed without mercy!
Xiao Qiao is no exception!
But now, Zhou Yu could only swallow all these words.
These are all facts, how can we deny it?
"Why..."
He sighed softly and poured himself a glass silently.
"Madam, what do you think Liu Zhang is doing at the moment?"
Xiao Qiao pursed her lips.
"Perhaps he is also drinking. But he must be very proud."
Zhou Yu nodded feebly.
"Yeah, he must be very proud."
"After taking Huainan, there will be no more fighting in the southeast. Liu Zhang's power to dominate the world has become unstoppable!"
"I didn't expect that I, Zhou Gongjin, would become Liu Zhang's stepping stone to dominate the world!"
"Damn, pathetic, deplorable, hateful!"
Zhou Yu was so angry that he smashed the cup in his hand to vent his anger.
But as soon as he lifted it up, it was frozen in the air.
The originally intoxicated eyes became extremely clear.
Moreover, he was still mumbling.
"Proud...Liu Zhang must be very proud."
"He is going to completely solve the problem in the south, how can he be dissatisfied?"
"If Shouchun is captured, the future will be a vast Central Plains. How can we resist south of the Yellow River?"
"Proud, not to mention Liu Zhang, even this governor would be proud!"
"No! You will get carried away!"
The more Zhou Yu talked, the more excited he became, and he stood up excitedly.
"Hahaha, I found it. I finally found this governor!"
Xiao Qiao stood up, full of confusion.
"Husband, what did you find?"
Zhou Yu was so excited that he grabbed Xiao Qiao's shoulders and shook them.
"Hahaha, madam, you are truly a lucky star for your husband!"
"Husband, I finally found a way to defeat Liu Zhang!"
"Congratulations husband."
Xiao Qiao pursed her lips, a little doubtful.
I made the same promise in the morning, but I came back dejected.
Now that he is like this, how can he be easily convinced?
Zhou Yu noticed Xiao Qiao's worry and patted her chest again to reassure her.
"Madam, don't worry, my husband will prove it to you today!"
Xiao Qiao bowed quickly.
"I believe that my husband will be able to win the battle and defeat the Qin army!"
"However, you should not be anxious about military affairs. You must make a plan before taking action. Please think twice before you act!"
"Don't worry, madam!"
Zhou Yu agreed immediately and walked to the door to give orders to the soldiers.
"Fetch General Lu Meng to this governor, quickly!"
"As you command!"
The soldiers did not dare to delay and quickly ran out of the house.
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Meng rushed over in a hurry.
"Grand Governor, what are you calling me for?"
