Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 47 Mr. Qiao, why are you here again!
"If people are not united, there is no point in planning!"

When Lu Su heard what Xing Daorong said, he knew that he was right.

After the defeat in Hefei and the death of Zhou Yu, people became even more confused.

If that's the case, doesn't it mean that Jiangdong will no longer have a chance to advance into the Central Plains?
He was thinking about how to talk about Hefei next, but unexpectedly Xing Daorong had no intention of stopping at all.

He said directly: "In the past, Liu Fu was the governor and implemented benevolent policies. In Hefei, the time, place and people were all favorable."

"Besides, Hefei is not an isolated city. It is really difficult to cut off Hefei's retreat!"

"With Shouchun here, Hefei can get continuous support, the army can rely on it, and the people can use their support. How can we defeat it?"

"Only if Cao Cao's retreat changes and his vital points are attacked, can victory be achieved."

"As for how the soldiers and horses attack the city... this naturally requires special training."

Sun Quan was a little surprised to hear Xing Daorong speak without reservation and give advice with all his heart.

Originally, Sun Quan's idea of ​​looking for Xing Daorong and Lu Su was actually very simple.

Just as he said, after the consecutive defeats in Hefei and Jiangling, many people in Jiangdong lost the desire to enter.

As an opponent, he wanted to hear what others thought of the Jiangdong Army.

Unexpectedly, Xing Daorong did not say much about the problems in the Jiangdong army, but instead talked about strategy.

Unsure of what Xing Daorong meant, he glanced at Lu Su.

Lu Su could roughly guess what Xing Daorong was thinking.

After the Battle of Jiangling, the Sun and Liu families appeared to be in harmony on the surface, but were wary of each other inwardly.

If he only focused on Hefei, it would definitely be a good thing for Liu Bei.

but…

What Xing Daorong said was not bad, so Lu Su nodded secretly towards Sun Quan.

Sun Quan knew what was going on, but he sighed, "Now that Gongjin has died early, I don't know when I can attack Cao again."

Xing Daorong also understood this.

Sun Quan will not mobilize troops again in the short term, whether against Cao or Liu.

The reason Xing Daorong and Pang Tong came this time, apart from paying their respects, was just to get this letter.

Now that Sun Quan has said this, the mission can be considered accomplished, and I can't help but feel relieved.

The serious matters were discussed straight away, and then there were some casual greetings.

When talking about Xing Daorong's new marriage, Sun Quan also congratulated him, but Xing Daorong really couldn't sit still in such an occasion.

It was just a dry chat with just a cup of tea. Not to mention "music and dancing", there wasn't even anyone to serve us.

This also shows how confidential today's conversation is.

...

After finally getting through the pleasantries, Xing Daorong and Pang Tong left the hall.

For a moment, the two of them didn't know where they had gone.

Pang Tong was fine. He knew a few people in Jiangdong and had some fame in Jingzhou, so he had a place to go.

Xing Daorong is in a difficult situation.

Although his impassioned speech shocked the people of Jiangdong, there are still many people who are hostile to him. Where do you think he can go?

Xing Daorong wanted to talk to Zhou Tai about the last time he was released, but after careful consideration, it didn't seem appropriate.

My relationship with Jiangdong is so strained, if I go to find Zhou Tai, wouldn't that just cause trouble for others?
After thinking about it, I decided to go to the inn and behave myself.

It's just that he wants to be honest, but someone doesn't want him to be honest...

...

"General Xing! General Xing, please slow down!"

Hearing the old man's call from behind, Xing Daorong really didn't want to stop at all.

But seeing that the old man followed closely and couldn't be shaken off, Xing Daorong could only turn back helplessly and impatiently. "Mr. Qiao! Why are you following me?"

That’s right, the old man following Xing Daorong was none other than Qiao Guolao.

Qiao Guolao chuckled: "General Xing, I guess you don't have anywhere to go, why don't you come to my house as a guest?"

Xing Daorong was somewhat interested in the Qiao sisters, but when he thought about the fact that they both had children, he felt alienated.

Don't help others raise children.

This is an irreconcilable contradiction, there's no way to deal with it!

Xing Daorong immediately refused and said, "Master Qiao, I am newly married and I have come all the way here. I am really tired."

"I won't bother you. I'll just go back to the inn and rest."

Having said that, Xing Daorong didn't care about Qiao Guolao's reaction and just walked away.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Guolao shouted from behind: "General Xing! I know you are capable. It's a rare opportunity for you to come here. Please save my Qiao family!"

After asking for help, Xing Daorong finally stopped looking so resolute.

He just frowned and said, "Old Master Qiao, although Governor Zhou has passed away, we are not in such a desperate situation to save his life, right?"

Qiao Guolao had a worried look on his face. "I really didn't say anything deceitful. General, please follow me to my house and we'll talk slowly."

When Xing Daorong saw Qiao Guolao, he indeed looked much more haggard.

Although he looked old these days, he was still energetic and his eyes were bright.

Today, there is no light in his eyes. He looks like he has aged five years and has white hair.

But seeing an old man begging so desperately, Xing Daorong couldn't bear it after all.

Thinking that this old guy couldn't harm him in his house, he finally said, "Hey... this old man's good character of loving the young is really engraved in his DNA. Let's go... Old Qiao, please lead the way."

When Mr. Qiao heard that Xing Daorong agreed, he was overjoyed.

As for what he said about DNA and so on, although he didn't understand it, Mr. Qiao just thought that he was too old and didn't hear it clearly, so he didn't care.

There was no conversation along the way. When they arrived at the familiar gate of Qiao Mansion, Xing Daorong couldn't help but sigh.

This person's luck is really related to all aspects.

The last time I came to Qiao’s house, I just felt it was a bit “simple”, but this time, it even felt a bit “dilapidated”.

I don’t know if it’s my illusion or if I really haven’t taken care of it, but it gives me a desolate feeling anyway.

Fortunately, once we entered the yard, this desolate feeling was immediately dispelled.

In the morning, Qiao Guolao had people prepare wine and food, waiting for Xing Daorong.

but…

Xing Daorong looked around but didn't see Da Qiao, and was a little disappointed.

Although I know that I probably have nothing to do with these beauties from the Three Kingdoms, but since I'm here, it wouldn't be excessive to take a few looks at them.

"General, what are you looking for?"

Xing Daorong looked around a little too much and was caught by Qiao Guozong.

Being interrupted by this, Xing Daorong could not look any further and just said, "Just take a look at it casually, Mr. Qiao, please don't mind."

Elder Qiao had finally managed to invite Xing Daorong, so there was no reason for him to mind. He didn't care what Xing Daorong was looking for and just led him to sit in the yard.

As soon as he sat down, Mr. Qiao sighed again, as if something really big had happened.

"Hey... General Xing, I called you here today because I have two things to tell you clearly."

Xing Daorong saw that Qiao Guolao had a sad face and could tell that something was wrong.

only…

What is this? Do you have to explain it to me?

Xing Daorong was puzzled, thinking that the two of them had little in common. It was obviously not normal that Qiao Guolao was chasing him like this.
