In the west of Chaisang City, Zhuge Liang led some petty officials and soldiers, accompanied by Yang Jiye, and was waiting for Lu Su's arrival.

At this time, Jiangdong was the defeated side, and Lu Su had come to sue for peace. Zhuge Liang did not need to go out of the city to greet him, but this time Jiangdong's delegation also included his brother Zhuge Jin.

Therefore, Zhuge Liang decided to go out of the city to greet him.

At this time, Lu Su's mission was still about one mile away from Chaisang.

There were more than 300 people accompanying him, including dozens of carriages and 500 escorts. The vehicles were all provided by Gan Ning and were filled with some local specialties from Jiangdong.

Lu Su was sitting in the carriage in front of him. Although his expression was slightly calm, there was a flash of worry deep in his eyes.

This is Lu Su's second mission to Jiangxia, but compared with the last time, the pressure this time is undoubtedly heavier.

Because this time Jiangdong's situation is even more unfavorable than last time.

Of course, just like last time, this time it also ended in a disastrous defeat for Kodong, and even the coach was the same person.

The reason why Lu Su is worried is not only because of this peace negotiation, but also because of Jiangdong's future.

Although Wenpin sent troops this time, the defeat of Jiangdong and the quelling of the rebellion in Jingnan were almost accomplished by Jiangxia County.

The entire county of Jiangxia, under Liu Jue's governance, could suppress Jiangdong. If Liu Jue took charge of Jingzhou, Jiangdong's life would be even more difficult.

Especially in the navy, the strength of the two sides is almost reversed. Because Jiangxia Navy has ships, Jiangdong is now at a disadvantage.

Lu Su sighed when he thought of this.

One mile was not a long journey and was completed quickly. Chai Sang also appeared in Lu Su's eyes.

This city originally belonged to Jiangdong, and Lu Su had visited it more than once. Although the city was not as strong as Wu County in Jiangdong, it was still a majestic city.

As long as there is enough food and grass in the city and another 20,000 troops are stationed, even a hundred thousand people can resist it for a long time.

It's a pity that this extremely important city was lost due to a careless move.

The soldiers escorting the team were Gan Ning's naval forces. A military lord leading the team suddenly called for a stop, then came to Lu Su's carriage and said,"Mr. Lu Su, military advisor Mr. Zhuge is already outside the city gate. Looking forward to it"

"Zhuge Liang!"

Lu Su didn't need to be reminded by this military commander. Lu Su had already seen Zhuge Liang, and a flash of light flashed in his eyes. It was this man who set up an ambush, defeated Zhou Yu's army on the way to retreat, and also captured Tai Shi Ci alive.

"Wolong Wolong! It’s really extraordinary!"Lu Su couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It was said that Wolong and Fengxiao could settle down the world together. Now that Liu Jue has both, can he really become the world leader in the future?

This thought flashed through Lu Su's mind, but he quickly put it aside. , and immediately got out of the carriage.

On the other side, Zhuge Jin also got off the carriage. After tidying up his clothes, he and Lu Su came forward to greet him.

"Long time no see. Mr. Zijing is well."Zhuge Liang laughed loudly.

Lu Su sighed and said with a little meaning:"There are so many things that have troubled me recently, how can I be fine? I've already been exhausted. Zhuge

Liang smiled slightly and pretended not to hear. Then he looked at Zhuge Jin and said,"Brother, I haven't seen you for several years. How are you doing?""

"not bad! But I'm just a county magistrate, unlike you, Kong Ming, who is already Liu Jiangxia's right-hand man."Zhuge Jin sighed. He went to Jiangdong to avoid trouble, and later became an official under Sun Quan. He and Zhuge Liang didn't see each other for a few years.

"Brother, there is no need to belittle yourself! The two of you must have been tired from traveling all the way, so you can rest in the city first."Zhuge Liang smiled again and made a gesture of invitation.

"It was indeed tiring along the way, but I was entrusted by Marquis Wu and had to do my best."Lu Su smiled bitterly, and the worries in his heart became heavier.

"In this case, please go to the Prefect's Mansion to rest first. My brother and I may not have seen each other for a long time, so we can catch up on old times."Zhuge Liang said, and stretched out his hand to let Lu Su get on the carriage.

Lu Su cupped his hands, and suddenly noticed Yang Jiye beside Zhuge Liang, and couldn't help but ask:"This general is very brave, and you haven't asked for his name yet?"

Yang Jiye clasped his fists and said:"The military commander who is under the eunuch's tent in Jiangxia, Yang Jiye"

"You are Yang Jiye!"

Not only Lu Su, but also Zhuge Jin couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect that this young general was Yang Jiye who killed Pan Zhang and captured Tai Shici.

Lu Su couldn't help but said:"The general is brave and extraordinary, and I, Jiangdong, are the two men. The generals are all in the hands of the general. The position of a mere military commander would be too unfair to the general. Zhuge

Liang laughed and said,"Yang Jiye has been following my young general for only a few months, and this is his first time on the battlefield." My young general has clear rewards and punishments. He will definitely be promoted to an official position in the near future. Mr. Zijing, don’t worry too much."

"The first time he went to the battlefield, he made great achievements and had a bright future."

Lu Su's heart was heavy. Yang Jiye's age seemed to be about the same as that of Ding Feng and Xu Sheng, but his ability was more outstanding than the two. Liu Jue had many talents under his command, which was a sign of prosperity.

"Mr. Zijing deserves the award."Yang Jiye cupped his fists again and said

"Generals don’t have to be humble!"Lu Su shook his head, sat on the carriage again, and followed Zhuge Liang's team towards the prefect's mansion.

After everyone arrived at the prefect's mansion, Zhuge Liang brought Lu Su and Zhuge Jin to the hall.

After everyone was seated, Lu Su took the lead and said:"Mr. Kong Ming, due to some small misunderstandings the day before yesterday, the two families were at war. This time Wu Hou sent me here in the hope that the two families could turn the war into friendship and stop fighting."

"Yes, in order to show our sincerity, Wu Hou prepared some gifts."Zhuge Jin nodded, took out a roll of bamboo slips from his sleeve, and asked the attendant behind him to hand it to Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang took the bamboo slips and scanned them briefly. In addition to some local specialties from Jiangdong, there were also some jewelry, Jade, silk, etc. are quite rich.

It looks quite sincere.

Zhuge Liang took a look, put the bamboo slips on the table, and said with a smile:"Mr. Zijing's words are wrong! Wu Hou first sent Lu Xun to the four counties of Jingnan to stir up trouble and instigate the prefects of the four counties and the Wuxi barbarians to rebel. Then he asked Zhou Yu to lead an army of 30,000 to attack the four cities of Chaisang, intending to annex Jingnan and Jiangxia. This kind of How can it be called a misunderstanding if there are sinister intentions? Zhuge

Liang said, snorted coldly, and then said:"If Mr. Zijing said that, I'm afraid he didn't come here sincerely to make peace!" In this case, please ask Mr. Zijing to take your things and return to Jiangdong!"

When Lu Su and Zhuge Jin heard this, their expressions changed.
