Chapter 580 Gift
The two entered the city and carefully observed the situation inside.

The two found that the city was very quiet. Even the residents in the city were gone. Every house was empty.

"How is this going?"

"I don't know. Did everyone here move away because of the war?"

Huang Gai and Xu Huang looked at each other and were about to go back to report to Zhou Yu when a person appeared behind them.

The man had a bow and arrow in his hand, aiming at them.

Xu Huang looked at the person in front of him and quickly recognized that he was Huang Zhong.

However, Xu Huang actually felt the same aura from Huang Zhong as he did from Guan Yu and Zhao Yun.

Legendary general?

"Get out of the way."

After Xu Huang understood what was going on, he used all his strength to push Huang Gai away, and then jumped into a house nearby.

Just when Huang Zhong was about to let go of his hand, a fire unicorn appeared behind Huang Zhong, and then the fire unicorn entered the bow and arrow in Huang Zhong's hand.

A flaming arrow shot out directly.

After the flaming arrow flew past, a path of fire one person wide was left on the ground.

As for the people on the road, they were all turned to ashes.

Immediately afterwards, countless people suddenly rushed out from the residential buildings and began to besiege the 50,000 people.

Zhou Yu was still waiting outside, not knowing what was happening inside. At this moment, Meng Huo suddenly walked to Zhou Yu's side, looking at the city with narrowed eyes.

"what happened?"

"There is a legendary general inside."

"Legendary general?"

Zhou Yu's eyes widened when he heard this.

If there are legendary generals, then if I send Huang Gai and Xu Huang in, wouldn't that be just sending them to their deaths?
Just as Zhou Yu reacted, a flame shot up into the sky, followed by shouts of killing from within the city.

"Not good, all the troops follow me to attack the city."

As he said this, Zhou Yu was thinking about rushing into the city.

Meng Huo began to release poison gas continuously, while Miao Moqing controlled the poisonous insects to crawl out of the soil and cooperate with the army to enter the city.

Not long after, Zhou Yu led a large army and rushed into the city.

Then he saw a flaming road appear in front of him. The road was very long and there were some human bones on it.

There were some soldiers from Yangzhou and Yizhou sitting around the Flame Road. Huang Gai and Xu Huang were also sitting on one side, and there were some corpses on the ground.

"How is this going?"

"You are finally here. If you hadn't come, you would have been the only one left to collect our bodies."

Xu Huang stood up, looked at Zhou Yu, and walked to the Xiahou brothers with a dissatisfied look on his face.

"General, we've fallen into a trap. Huang Zhong is already a legendary general. We were ambushed by Huang Zhong. He only used one arrow to turn the road into this. Then countless people rushed out from all around. These people are elite and move very quickly. After you came in, they left at an extremely fast speed. We had no time to react."

Zhou Yu frowned slightly, and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.

From what Huang Gai said, it was obvious that Gu Rubing and the others were already preparing to leave. If that was the case, why would they launch a surprise attack on him?

While Zhou Yu was thinking, he smelled a faint smell of kerosene in the air.

"No, leave quickly."

As soon as the voice fell, Zhou Yu and his men prepared to run back.

However, at this moment Huang Zhong appeared again not far from them, with the arrow in his hand pointing at them.

Huang Zhong then let go of the arrow in his hand.

The rocket was flying directly towards them.

If those present were not all famous generals, they would definitely be in trouble.

However, after they dodged and looked towards the location of the rocket, everyone's faces turned pale.

It turned out that the target of the rocket was not them, but the kerosene tank behind them.

"No, retreat quickly!"

Zhou Yu shouted again.

At this moment, countless rockets flew in from the side, aiming at the places where there were kerosene tanks.

In an instant, the city turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Zhou Yu and everyone else managed to escape with great difficulty.

A total of 100,000 people entered the city, but this time, less than 60,000 people followed Zhou Yu out.

Looking at the remaining soldiers behind him, all of whom were covered in dust and dirt, Zhou Yu threw the sword in his hand to the ground.

However, a burst of laughter was heard not far behind him.

"Grand Commander, the gift our Prime Minister gave you is quite nice, isn't it? The Prime Minister said that Yulin County is now yours. We are waiting for you in Cangwu County."

The voice belonged to Huang Zhong. Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu spat out a mouthful of blood.

When everyone saw Zhou Yu like this, they rushed forward.

"Grand Commander, are you okay?"

Huang Gai looked at Zhou Yu with some worry.

"fine."

Zhou Yu sighed and sat on the ground for a while before he recovered.

"Go into the city and put out the fire."

Gu Rubing led everyone back to Cangwu County directly.

In the entire Jiaozhou, this is the only county that belongs to them.

"Prime Minister, your hard work has been wasted this time."

Gu Rubing knew that taking Jiaozhou in one go was part of Zhuge Liang's plan.

But now Zhuge Liang was only one step away from his plan. The sudden appearance of the legendary general from the Gu tribe really disrupted Zhuge Liang's plan.

"It's okay, my lord. We can take it slowly. This time I also want to try whether we have such a big appetite. But now it seems that we really don't have such a big appetite."

Gu Rubing smiled and didn't say anything. He just looked in the direction of Yulin County. His heart couldn't calm down for a long time. What worried Gu Rubing the most was the existence of the Gu Clan. As long as the Gu Clan was there, he would need to retreat all the time and he didn't even have any means of defense.

Zhuge Liang saw Gu Rubing's worry and comforted him with a smile.

"Don't worry, my lord. They won't attack again. Their rear is on fire now. Those two must be more troublesome than us."

At this time, Chengdu, Yizhou.

Cao Cao looked at the information in his hand and threw the teacup in his hand to the ground.

"Surena is so brave that he dared to go against my plan and declare war on Rome. What's wrong with this Sun Jian? Can't he control Rome? Then what's the point of me forming an alliance with such a loser?"

Cao Cao kept cursing, and after a long time, he finally got tired of it.

Liu Zhang just watched from the side and had no intention of intervening at all.

"Liu Zhang, what are you doing? You've been listening for so long, can't you give me some advice?"

Cao Cao was very dissatisfied with Liu Zhang's attitude of just watching the fun. Moreover, Cao Cao just wanted to find someone to vent his anger on, and the person closest to him was Liu Zhang, so naturally he wanted to vent his anger on them.

"What's the point of asking me? In the end, it was you who took the initiative to look for Western forces. When you wanted to find them, I told you that they were unreliable. Why didn't you listen? Now that you've suffered a loss, you're talking to me. I can't do anything about it."

Liu Zhang spread his hands and looked indifferent. Cao Cao gritted his teeth, sighed, took another teacup, poured a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp.

"Okay, my attitude was not good just now. Tell me what we should do?" Seeing Cao Cao admit his mistake, Liu Zhang smiled.

"It's very simple. Just find someone you can trust to take over the management of Anxi."

"Hmm? Take over? But they are all Westerners, there is no way they will listen to the Han people."

"That means they are not strong enough."

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao looked at Liu Zhang curiously.

"Then who do you think is suitable to go?"

"I."

"what?"

Cao Cao looked at Liu Zhang with his eyes slightly narrowed, and there was already some murderous intent in his heart.

Liu Zhang simply ignored Cao Cao's gaze, took a sip of tea, and looked at Cao Cao calmly.

"In fact, you know in your heart that only I can help you control the situation in Anxi."

Cao Cao stared at Liu Zhang for a long time and finally sighed.

In fact, Cao Cao knew clearly that those around him were all counselors and generals. There was no problem in asking them to come up with strategies and fight the enemy, but it would be impossible for them to manage a country of similar size to the Han Dynasty. In comparison, Liu Zhang was much better.

As players, everyone has some special attributes. Since Anxi recognizes Liu Zhang as their master, they can naturally accept the bonuses that Liu Zhang brings to them, and their combat effectiveness will also be stronger.

"Are you sure you want to go?"

"I do not want to go."

Cao Cao didn't expect that Liu Zhang would just shake his head and say he would not go no matter what.

"why?"

"I'm here, eating delicious food and drinking spicy drinks. Why should I go there? I'm unfamiliar with the place and there's a high possibility that I'll die immediately. I don't want to take the risk."

After Liu Zhang finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to go outside.

"You wait a moment."

Cao Cao quickly called Liu Zhang.

"Don't worry, as long as you go, I will support you with whatever you want."

"Don't go."

Liu Zhang turned around and left without stopping.

"You wait a moment."

However, no matter what Cao Cao said, Liu Zhang refused to stand.

Cao Cao, who had been somewhat skeptical at first, now had no doubts at all, and in the end, he had no choice but to use his trump card.

"If you don't go, I will stop your salary. Without money, I wonder what you can eat and drink."

"Fuck you, Cao Cao, are you talking like a human being? I've given you my soldiers, my generals, and now my territory. You use this to threaten me. Do you believe that when I get to Anxi, I will lead the people of Anxi to destroy you?"

Listening to Liu Zhang's curse, Cao Cao didn't care at all, but waited quietly for Liu Zhang to finish venting.

Seeing that Cao Cao was unmoved, Liu Zhang finally calmed down and stopped abusing him.

"Are you done scolding me? Then go back and clean up. You can take a few people you think are good with you. After all, you will need help over there, right?"

"um, I……"

Before Liu Zhang finished speaking, Cao Cao coughed and muttered to himself while looking at his hands.
"I heard that there are many exotic features in Anxi. I wonder what they look like. If you don't want to go, I'll go. I was in a hurry last time and didn't have time to see them."

"Exotic features?"

Liu Zhang immediately became interested and nodded, "I'll go."

"Why don't you just not go? If you don't want to go, isn't it good to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks here?"

"No, I'll help you. Who else can help you now? I must go. Let me make it clear that I'm not going to see those exotic features. I just want to help you."

"Okay, then it's settled. Just tell me if you need anything, and I'll help you if I can."

Looking at Cao Cao, Liu Zhang always felt as if he had been fooled, but he didn't know what had happened.

Looking at Liu Zhang's back, Cao Cao showed a smile.

"It does have exotic features, but I don't know if you can afford to lose weight."

When Liu Zhang left this time, he did not bring too many people with him. He only brought five first-class generals: Li Yan, Wu Lan, Yan Yan, Liu Gui, and Ling Bao.

Cao Cao had been waging wars against foreign enemies for a long time, but he had deliberately avoided the original generals of Yizhou, so even now, there was not a single famous general in the Yizhou army.

Liu Zhang didn't care. He certainly understood what Cao Cao meant. If Anxi was not in such a bad condition, Cao Cao would never let him leave.

The same problem also occurred on Sun Jian's side.

At the same time, Sun Jian also scolded Cao Cao, and their words were almost the same.

Seeing Sun Jian's frustrated look, Shi Xie turned around and left. He didn't want to become Sun Jian's punching bag.

It was a while after Shi Xie left that Sun Jian finally reacted. He saw that Shi Xie was no longer in the room.

"This guy, when he is needed, he just runs away."

Sun Jian immediately ordered people to bring Shi Xie back.

"What?"

Shi Xie looked at Sun Jian with dissatisfaction.

"How about you go to Rome?"

"What? I'm not going."

"If you don't go, who will?"

"Then I don't care. I won't go."

Seeing Shi Xie's rogue look, Sun Jian immediately lost his temper.

"Don't you have Sun Quan? Wouldn't you feel more at ease if you let Sun Quan go?"

"Makes sense."

After Sun Jian finished speaking, he directly took the brush beside him.

"It's just right. Let Quan'er come back and you go to guard Wujun. I heard it's relatively safe there."

"You're talking nonsense. A hundred thousand soldiers were beaten down to less than thirty thousand. How can you be safe? Sun Jian, if you want to kill me, just tell me directly. You don't need to ask for help from others."

Shi Xie was very angry. Everyone knew that, apart from Jiaozhou, Wujun was the most fiercely fought and dangerous place on Sun Jian's side. However, one of these two dangerous places had Sun Quan and the other had Sun Ce. He, Sun Jian, was in Yangzhou, feeling at ease being their local emperor.

"Okay, I'll go, but I have no soldiers or generals. If you ask me to go, what should I do?"

When Sun Jian was preparing to report to Shi Xie about his soldiers and generals, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have nothing around him as all the people he could send out had been sent out.

"You can recruit soldiers on your own if you don't have any, and you can recruit generals on your own if you don't have any. I have prepared everything for you. What do you want to do? Are you going to be a local tyrant?"

Shi Xie glared at Sun Jian, and under Sun Jian's threatening gaze, he could only leave helplessly.

Soon Liu Zhang led five people and arrived directly at Anxi.

It was Surena who greeted Liu Zhang.

Before Liu Zhang could speak, Surena just waved his hand.

"Emissary, please listen to my explanation. There is a reason for this. I didn't want to go to war with Rome, but I..."

Before Surena could finish his words, he was stopped by Liu Zhang.
