Chapter 207 Meeting Gift

Seeing that Lu Su was so sure, Liu Ye stroked his beard and asked curiously:

"Does Zijing have an explanation? There are rumors in Shouchun that Chen Duan lured Yan Xiang to Xianshui to be captured and killed. This man was Sun Ce's mastermind. Hearing that Sun Ce had long wanted to attack Xudu, he followed Sun Quan's instructions.

It’s also reasonable.”

Lu Su frowned and shook his head slightly: "I don't deny that the Sun family has the ambition to conquer the Central Plains. Sun Quan is not a simple eighteen-year-old boy, but he will never cause such a big disturbance at the beginning of his succession. Don't forget

He is Yan Xiangju’s most talented person, and it is even more impossible for him to be known to everyone.”

"Who does Zijing think he is?" Liu Yexu asked with eyes wide.

Lu Su replied: "Mei Chengjiu occupies the magpie's nest. He has benefited the most, so he is currently the most suspect. Li Shu is also possible. I heard that Chen Duan has been in Lujiang."

"Meicheng?"

Liu Ye looked disdainful: "This guy is not even as good as Zheng Bao, how could he deceive Yan Xiang? In addition, Chen Duan is the mastermind of Sun Ce, and his family and relatives are all in Jiangdong, and Li Shu has now revealed his betrayal, how can Chen Duan help

Does he do things?"

Lu Su added: "Yan Xiang has been tolerating and wooing the forces in the northern part of Lujiang. Maybe Mei Cheng is pretending to surrender? I still think he is the most suspicious."

Seeing the lively discussion between the two, Long Xiang joined in: "No matter who instigated Chen Duan, Yan Xiang has been killed now, and the shit basin is temporarily on Sun Quan's head. We only need to sort and analyze Sun Quan's opponents, and the result will be clear at a glance."

Lu Su cracked his fingers and began to list: "Sun Quan's opponents are the opponents of the Sun family. Excluding the insiders in Jiangdong, the outside ones include Chen Deng, Li Shu, Huang Zu, Liu Biao and us."

Liu Ye said to himself: "Needless to say, Huang Zu and Liu Biao are too far away from Huainan. I think it is unworthy to simply use the death of Yan Xiang to disgust Sun Quan. The Chen family in Xuzhou has always been close to the imperial court, even if they have to deal with Sun Quan,

He wouldn't be able to trap and kill the governor, and what benefits would Li Shu get from killing Yan Xiang? If he takes advantage of Shouchun, it would make sense."

"Can't it be a joint case?"

Long Xiang interrupted the two of them and added, "Maybe they both get what they need?"

Lu Su nodded slightly: "Previously, Meicheng was entrenched in the Yashan and Yaxian areas, which was quite close to Li Shu's control area. There is a possibility of secret communication, but the key point is that Mei Cheng actually got the benefits. In the end, Li Shu

What did you get? He is not a good person."

"Perhaps he just wants to throw dirty water on Sun Quan? Don't forget how many refugees fled north to the Lujiang River in the past two months. The people in Jiangdong may be happy to see this behavior," Liu Ye agreed.

"hiss"

Lu Su took a breath of cold air.

Long Xiang smiled and joked: "It is more efficient to use the inverse method of results. If we continue to analyze, we will probably be able to find the murderer soon."

Seeing Lu Su, Liu Ye, and Long Xiang chatting more and more animatedly, Zhang Fei, who was listening in, couldn't bear it anymore.

He interrupted in a rough voice: "Stop analyzing. Is it important to know the murderer now? We have no obligation to rehabilitate Sun Quan's son."

"What did Yide want to say?" Long Xiang asked with a smile.

Zhang Fei's face was serious: "The top priority is to restore the news of the Central Plains, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable staying in Hefei."

Long Xiang shook his head gently: "Zi Yang was right just now. The imperial court will send a new governor. We can only wait for this."

Zhang Fei frowned and asked: "If Yuan Shao and Cao Cao can't finish the fight in half a year, I'll wait for half a year; if they can't finish the fight in one year, I'll wait for one year? When can I see my eldest brother? Can't we take the initiative?"

Lu Su was curious when he heard this, so he approached and asked, "Take the initiative? How to take the initiative?"

"Since Mei Cheng is just a mob, it's better to lead his troops north to capture Shouchun. We'll send people to find out the news, so we don't have to wait for others."

Zhang Fei raised his fist as big as a bowl as he spoke, looking confident.

Long Xiang and Lu Su looked at each other and said to themselves, Third Master, how dare you think that he had served as a city gate official in Shouchun. Shouchun was the capital of Yuan Shu before. As long as Mei Cheng has the ability to defend the city, Hefei has been

Thousands of people are not enough to fill the gap.

Lu Su saw that Long Xiang was in trouble, so he stepped forward to rescue him and said: "Yide made things simple. The Hefei cavalry camp gathered a total of 200 horses, and they couldn't even find out all the news about Huainan. Yan Xiang was trapped and killed without any intelligence.

Even if we capture Shouchun, what will happen? How far can we send the detective horses?"

"Ah this."

Zhang Fei scratched his head and turned to look at Liu Ye for help.

Liu Ye explained with a smile: "If Mei is like Liu Zong, he can naturally capture Shouchun without a single blow, but how likely is this? With the current defenders of Hefei, it is almost impossible to attack Shouchun by force. In addition, even if Shouchun is not attacked,

, we can also send out sentries deep into the Central Plains, but as Zijing said, how far can our scouts go?"

Lu Su then added: "If Yunqi sends troops to attack Shouchun, it will not only irritate Li Shu of Lujiang, but also Sun Quan. He allowed us to take Quanjiao and Fuling because those two counties are remote and inappropriate.

Shouchun and Hefei are both strategically important towns, so attacking Shouchun would expose our ambitions."

"Bala Bala said so much, I just want to know the news about eldest brother."

Zhang Fei was impatient and sat down on the ground like a child losing his temper.

Seeing this, Long Xiang also squatted down, patted Zhang Fei's arm gently, and comforted: "Don't be anxious, Yide. It has only been a few months since you arrived at Yuan Shao's place. It will take time to gather the remaining troops, right? It will take time to gain Yuan Shao's trust, right?"

?It doesn’t matter if you wait patiently for a few more months, I still have to prepare some greeting gifts for the envoy."

"What kind of meeting gift?"

Zhang Feihei's face was full of doubts.

Long Xiang said with a smile: "Of course we need to prepare some soldiers and horses. When the summer harvest in Junqiu is over, Yide will go over there to recruit some soldiers. I can't let you bring dozens of horses to see the envoy."

"This is good, this is good"

Zhang Dezhi nodded, and then asked curiously: "If Mei Cheng still has Shouchun at that time, I can't wait endlessly, can I?"

"so."

Long Xiang thought for a while and said: "My younger brother is getting married at the end of the year. Yide always has to drink the wedding wine before leaving? If Meicheng still has Shouchun at that time, I will send someone to Runan to find the envoy. I will not let you continue.

Just wait."

Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his serious face.

"I almost forgot about Yunqi's wedding banquet. Of course I can't miss it. Madam said that the two young ladies from the Qiao family are very skillful. Besides sewing wedding dresses for themselves, they are also preparing yours. You will be blessed for the rest of your life."

"Hehe. Hiss."

When Long Xiang responded with a smile, he suddenly felt a tremor on his back. It turned out that Zhang Fei was a little excited when he said it, so he patted his lower back.

Long Xiang said in his heart, Third Master, you have to work hard, otherwise my waist may not be able to withstand it. Whether I can enjoy happiness in the rest of my life depends on the hard work of these two parts.

The changing situation in Huainan has not disrupted Hefei's construction plan.

Not long after Long Xiang took over Junqiu County, he began to draw the construction drawings of Hefei New City. He plans to start the construction of the new city in stages and by projects starting from the fall of this year.

At the end of August, when the final draft of the construction drawings was about to be completed, urgent information came from the Cao Xing Cavalry Battalion: an army of thousands of people appeared in Xiang'an County, southeast of Chaohu Lake, with unknown motives.
