The Three Kingdoms: The Cold Gate World

Chapter 379
Sun Quan never dreamed that Guo Jia was so "generous".

Not only to borrow Jiangxia, but also not to Liu Bei, but to Jiangdong.

Sun Quan's thoughts changed sharply, what was Guo Jia's intention?
If you want to sell favors, it is obviously more appropriate for Guo Jia to lend Jiang Xia to Liu Bei.

But this opportunity was given to Jiang Dong.

Jiang Dong came forward to borrow Jiang Xia from Guo Jia, and then lent it to Liu Bei to live in. It is conceivable, who will Liu Bei count this favor on?
It is possible that Guo Jia harbored evil intentions!

Sun Quan thought so.

Because if Jiangdong covets the land of Jiangxia, when Guo Jia forces Liu Bei to leave, Jiangdong can settle in Jiangxia, which is equivalent to expanding the territory.

Then at that time, it is very likely that the Sun Liu alliance will turn against each other first.

Sun Quan raised his glass to Guo Jia, smiled happily and said, "Your Majesty's generosity, I admire you very much, and I will replace wine with tea, thank you Your Majesty."

Guo Jia picked up the teacup and drank it down. Sun Quan looked at Guo Jia and took a step back before drinking the tea.

I sneered in my heart: Are you testing my vision and tolerance?
Jiangxia, Jiangdong doesn’t need it, just give it to Liu Bei as a place to live, so that the relationship between the Sun Liu alliance will be consolidated. Compared with Jiangdong’s settlement in Jiangxia, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

South County is adjacent to Jiangxia County. Liu Bei is in Jiangxia, which is equivalent to guarding the gate for Jiangdong. Jiangdong occupies Jiangxia himself, so he must always be on guard against Guo Jia. He may be caught off guard by the opponent every second.

Guo Jia turned his gaze to the sky outside the window again, the sky as far as he could see was covered with haze, and there was rumbling thunder in the distance.

At this moment, Zhang Ren, who had been patrolling the aisle outside the house, ran in in a hurry, ignored Sun Quan and went straight to Guo Jia, bowed in Guo Jia's ear and said, "My lord, there are soldiers rushing up outside the building, This place is dangerous, my lord, let the last general escort you away."

After hearing this, Guo Jia waved his hands without changing his expression, still looking out the window without any reaction.

Sun Quan didn't know what Zhang Ren said to Guo Jia. Zhang Ren looked very nervous, as if he was facing a big enemy, but Guo Jia was calm and calm, and it didn't look like any major incident happened.

Zhou Yu, who was patrolling outside the house with Zhang Ren, also came in, just like Zhang Ren, and whispered in Sun Quan's ear: "Lu Fan, Lu Meng is going upstairs with a hundred swordsmen."

When Sun Quan heard this, his face turned pale with shock, and anger appeared in his eyes.

After Sun Shangxiang made a fuss yesterday, Sun Quan dismissed the idea of ​​murdering Guo Jia, but the number of people under his command who wanted Guo Jia dead was too many to count. Now Lu Fan and Lu Meng obviously wanted to act without orders.

Jiangdong was not ready to go to war with the Taiping Army at all. If Cao Wei hadn't pinched the Taiping Army in Jingzhou, Jiangdong's chances of winning would be less than [-]%. , How could Sun Quan let his subordinates destroy all this?
Just as he was about to order Zhou Yu to stop Lu Fan and Lu Meng, Sun Quan unexpectedly watched Lu Meng walk in from the outside, bowed his hands solemnly to Sun Quan and said, "My lord, I have something important to report at the end, please come outside later. Talk about it."

Zhang Ren's hand was already on the saber, and Sun Quan was stunned for a moment, stunned in shock.

Zhou Yu concealed himself in front of Sun Quan, forming a confrontation with Zhang Ren.

The current situation is unspoken to everyone.

The generals in Jiangdong decided to kill Guo Jia, so they had to ensure Sun Quan's safety first. Lu Meng asked Sun Quan to go out to avoid accidentally hurting his lord.

Among the people present, only Guo Jia looked calmly at the dark scene of the stormy sky and earth outside the window. He put his left hand on the low table, tapped the table with his fingers rhythmically, and then moved slowly.

Touched the teacup, continued to pan, the teacup fell from the edge of the low table.

pop
The teacup shattered with a crisp sound.

Bang bang bang!
The wooden door panels were smashed, and groups of knives and axes broke into the door.

This sudden shock made Sun Quan dumbfounded.

It was also a scene of being caught off guard when Lu Fan rushed in with people.

He asked Lu Meng to come in and escort Sun Quan out, and then threw a cup as a sign to kill Guo Jia.

But now Sun Quan is less than half a step away from Guo Jia, even if Zhou Yu is on the side to protect him, who can guarantee that Sun Quan will be safe and sound?
Guo Jia, who was the focal point, stood up slowly and drew the saber from Zhang Ren.

This action made Jiangdong's people fully alert, and Zhou Yu even pulled Sun Quan behind him to be careful.

Guo Jia showed a smile, which made people feel like a spring breeze, without any deep meaning, neither ridiculed nor chilled.

Putting the bright silver long knife in front of Zhou Yu with both hands, Guo Jia said softly: "Wu Hou, if you want to see me now, please give me some dignity, they are not worthy of killing me."

Obviously, what Guo Jia said was to Sun Quan who was behind Zhou Yu.

Sun Quan was furious, turned his head and glared at Lu Meng and Lu Fan.

"Presumptuous! Are you going to rebel?"

Seeing Sun Quan's thunderous anger, especially when he seldom saw Sun Quan's eyes tearing apart, Lu Fan felt agitated, and the majesty of the monarch made his heart tremble, and he dared not look at Sun Quan.

However, Lu Meng held his sword with his head held high, as if he would pull out the handle at any time. Facing Sun Quan, Lu Meng said forcefully, "My lord, if this person is not killed today, it will be a serious disaster in the future! Let the end be Jiangdong's solution to this serious trouble. Afterwards, my lord." If you want to take the head of the last general, the last general will not complain."

As he spoke, Lu Meng took a step forward, drew the saber halfway, and stopped.

Because Sun Quan stood in front of him.

At this moment, Sun Quan is riding a tiger.

My heart is full of resentment towards Lu Meng.

Kill Guo Jia now?
Don't you, Lu Meng, think that after Guo Jia's death, your head can settle the matter?
At that time, Jiangdong's people will be devastated, blood will flow like rivers, and your head will be removed, and you will not be the only one?

Big picture!

Big picture!
Sun Quan gritted his teeth and said to Lu Meng, "If you dare to make a mistake, kill me first!"

Lu Meng's eyes showed regret, he struggled and said, "My lord, this."

"Come here, tie up Lu Fan, push Lu Meng out and chop him up!"

When Sun Quan gave an order, those who followed Lu Meng and Lu Fan looked at each other with swords and axes, and still listened to Sun Quan.

Zhou Yu immediately knelt down on one knee to intercede for Lu Meng.

Sun Quan ignored Zhou Yu, turned his head to calm his expression, and said to Guo Jia apologetically: "Your Majesty, this matter is not my intention, please make your lord aware of the details, these two people are plotting something wrong, let me send you down, even if you want me to The three tribes of Yi and Qi, I have absolutely nothing to say."

Guo Jia subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. He actually thought that it might be Sun Quan's intention to kill him just now, but looking at it now, it's his subordinates who made their own decisions.

Turning around and returning the knife in his hand to Zhang Ren, Guo Jia hadn't spoken yet, but another person rushed in stumbling.

Lu Su.

Lu Su hurried over with a piece of information in his hand. Although he had seen the scene in the house and guessed a thing or two about the situation, he didn't care about anything else. He rushed to Sun Quan and said in a serious voice: "My lord, what is this?" The latest news from the army. Jiangling’s Taiping army has come out in full force, has entered Jiangxia County, and is stationed in Jingling. Uncle Liu Huang asked me for help from Jiangdong in Xiakou.”

Sun Quan was startled, and reflexively looked at Guo Jia, who had a calm face.

Seeing Sun Quan looking at him, Guo Jia said, "Marquis Wu, the two generals have misunderstood me. Let's forget about it. Your two families are about to get married. If Marquis Wu kills the general, wouldn't it be a joke for outsiders?"

Sun Quan smiled awkwardly, and then said: "Thank you emissary, but these two people, the death penalty is inevitable, and the living penalty is inevitable. I will go and punish the two myself."

After finishing speaking, Sun Quan turned his back to Guo Jia, and Lu Su led his troops out with Lu Meng and Lu Fan who had been tied up. Zhou Yu stayed in the house to prevent other accidents from happening.

Walking out of the attic, Sun Quan came to a secluded place. Sun Quan ignored Lu Fan and Lu Meng who were bound behind him, opened the white silk and took a closer look.

After finally calming down, Sun Quan just wanted to discuss with Lu Su, but Lu Meng said righteously behind him: "My lord, you must not miss this opportunity. If you kill Guo Jia at this time, the Taiping Army will have no leader and will be defeated!"

Enraged by his words again, Sun Quan turned around and slapped Lu Meng mercilessly, and slapped the white silk in his hand on his face.

"Falled into an army?! Lu Ziming, open your eyes and see clearly, you almost caused a catastrophe, and the six counties in Jiangdong almost paid a heavy price for your recklessness!"

Lu Meng's face was dull, not knowing what Sun Quan was talking about.

Seeing his confusion, Sun Quan grabbed his neck with one hand, gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "You heard me clearly. Guo Jia's nearly 15 Taiping troops in Jiangling have already arrived at Jingling! They can attack within ten days. Jiangdong! Lu Ziming, you are the general of Jiangdong. Come and tell me how to fight this battle? I have a total of [-] soldiers in Jiangdong. I just fought a bloody battle with Cao Wei. The soldiers are exhausted. Good! Even if Jiangdong can stop Taiping Army, but the flames of war were ignited in the six counties of Jiangdong! After this battle, how many years will it take Jiangdong to recover? Ah? Ah?!"

Lu Meng was shocked. Seeing Sun Quan's hideous expression, he stammered, "When the Taiping army arrived in Jingling, didn't they go to attack Liu Bei?"

Snapped

Sun Quan slapped him again, and his forehead was smoked with anger.

"Liu Bei has [-] soldiers in Jiangxia! [-]! Even if I give you [-] soldiers, can't you win? Does the Taiping Army need to not even defend Jiangling to fight Liu Bei? Lu Ziming!"

Sun Quan, who has always been gentle and elegant, rarely showed a violent side today.

He paced back and forth, his mind racing.

Lu Meng knelt down on the ground in a daze, and said resolutely: "My lord, please take General Guo's head to Guo Jia, so that Guo Jia can calm down his anger."

"My lord, my lord, I contacted Ziming to plan this matter. It's not his fault. If my lord wants to kill me, just kill me."

Lu Fan also knelt down and took the blame on himself.

Sun Quan stopped, pointed at the two of them for a long time before saying: "I will kill you two? What do you think of me? I am the lord of Jiangdong! You are the minister of Jiangdong! Now the foreign enemy has come, my lord Kill your own minister? Am I confused? Go back to the barracks and think about it, and if you dare to act without orders, you will be responsible for the consequences."

Lu Fan and Lu Meng blamed themselves and left in gratitude to Sun Quan.

It is impossible for Sun Quan to kill his own people. He asked Guo Jia just now, hoping that Guo Jia would give him a step down.

If Guo Jia does not give it, it will be equivalent to enmity with Jiangdong.

Fortunately, Guo Jia gave it, and Sun Quan thought that Guo Jia didn't want to go to war with Jiangdong, so everyone regarded peace as the most important thing.
