In Jingzhou city, the armory was piled with newly forged weapons, the granary was full of grain, and Huang Gai personally supervised the allocation and transportation of every batch of supplies, ensuring that the front-line soldiers had no worries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One day, Lu Su hurried into Zhou Yu’s camp, holding a letter from Liu Bei in his hand. \"Viceroy, Liu Bei has written, expressing his willingness to further deepen the alliance with us, jointly resist Cao Cao, and proposing his willingness to send Zhuge Liang to assist us in formulating strategies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yu took the letter, read it carefully, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. \"Liu Bei’s move is full of sincerity. Zhuge Liang is wise and peerless; if we can get his help, it is undoubtedly like adding wings to a tiger. Reply to Liu Bei, welcoming Zhuge Liang to come, while expressing our anticipation for deepening the alliance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, Zhuge Liang arrived in Jingzhou, dusty and tired, with several attendants. Zhou Yu personally went out to welcome him; the two met outside the city gate, exchanged salutes, and walked into the city together, heading straight for the council hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Kongming has come from afar; I am deeply grateful.\" Zhou Yu said politely, signaling for Zhuge Liang to sit down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuge Liang smiled slightly and returned the salute. \"Liang has heard that the Viceroy is brave and skilled in battle, wise and peerless; seeing you today is truly a fortunate event. General Liu Bei and I both hope to plot great things with Jiangdong and resist the Cao thieves.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yu nodded, his expression grave. \"Cao Cao’s power is vast and cannot be eliminated in a day. Does the gentleman have any high opinions? I am willing to hear them in detail.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and spoke slowly. \"Although Cao Cao is strong, he is not without weaknesses. Liang has observed the celestial phenomena; there will be natural disasters in the north soon, which is heaven helping us. We can take this opportunity to unite forces from all sides, attacking from the north and south, making Cao Cao unable to attend to both ends.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu’s eyes lit up. \"Natural disasters? Is this true?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuge Liang nodded affirmatively. \"Liang observed the stars at night and calculated it. In addition, we also need to strengthen the navy in preparation for unexpected needs. Although Cao Cao is strong, fighting on the water is his weakness.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yu felt deeply in agreement and discussed specific battle plans with Zhuge Liang in detail. The two hit it off immediately and decided to take action immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the following days, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang worked hand in hand, strengthening military equipment while sending envoys to various places to strive for support from more allies. At the same time, they also paid close attention to the movements in the north, waiting for the arrival of the natural disaster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, months later, news came from the north that Cao Cao’s territory had encountered a rare drought, grain production had decreased significantly, and the people’s hearts were wavering. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and smiled, knowing that the opportunity had come.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They quickly gathered their troops and attacked in multiple routes. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei led their armies, pressing directly to Cao Cao’s hinterland; Zhao Yun led elite troops to harass Cao Cao’s border, containing his military strength; while Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang personally led the navy, preparing to fight a decisive battle with Cao Cao’s navy on the Yangtze River.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon learning the news, Cao Cao was shocked. Although he anticipated that Jiangdong would take the opportunity to attack, he did not expect the natural disaster to come so suddenly, catching him off guard. He hurriedly gathered his military strength, attempting to respond to threats from all sides.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Cao Cao’s army was already exhausted from continuous battles, coupled with the impact of the natural disaster, and morale was low. Facing the joint attack of the Jiangdong allied forces and allies from all sides, Cao Cao’s army retreated steadily and suffered heavy losses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, in a decisive water battle, Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang joined forces, winning against superior numbers and defeating Cao Cao’s navy. Seeing that the situation was lost, Cao Cao had no choice but to lead his remaining troops to flee back to the north, and he would have no strength to move south in the short term.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the battle, Jingzhou city was full of joy. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang stood side by side on the city tower, looking at the river in the distance, their hearts filled with the joy of victory and longing for the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Kongming, this great victory is thanks to the gentleman’s brilliant plan.\" Zhou Yu said sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhuge Liang smiled slightly. \"The Viceroy is brave and skilled in battle, and the Jiangdong soldiers are dedicated; Liang has only contributed a little bit of effort. The road ahead is still long, and we need to continue to work hand in hand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yu nodded. \"The gentleman’s words are absolutely correct. May our Jiangdong and Shu-Han be like the water of the Yangtze River, flowing for a long time, jointly resisting foreign enemies and guarding this land.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two looked at each other and smiled, their hearts filled with infinite anticipation for the future and firm belief. They knew that as long as they were united as one, nothing was impossible. And this victory was just a beginning in their joint journey to resist Cao; there were more challenges waiting for them to face and conquer in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With Cao Cao’s temporary retreat, Jingzhou and its surrounding areas ushered in a rare period of peace. Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang took this opportunity to further strengthen the alliance between the two sides, not only acting as horns for each other in military affairs but also carrying out in-depth cooperation in economy, culture, and other aspects. In Jingzhou city, merchants gathered, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment, a scene of prosperity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, peace did not last long; Cao Cao in the north did not give up his ambition to move south, but was accumulating strength in secret, preparing to make a comeback. At the same time, a new force quietly rose in the Jiangnan region; the leader was a young monarch named Sun Quan, who relied on the rich resources and elite soldiers of the six counties of Jiangdong, intending to get a share of the pie in troubled times.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang keenly sensed this change; they knew well that if they could not properly handle the relationship with Sun Quan, they might fall into a situation of being attacked from both sides. Thus, the two decided to go to Jiangdong personally to meet Sun Quan and explore the possibility of cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>",1185,"2026-06-16T10:17:29.323Z","2026-06-16T10:29:14.565Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","53327feb253edd8f388628a274e72497d8053861541716fd20702c7cdc05874d","three-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-chapter-1066","three-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-chapter-1064",1103,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-kingdoms-humiliated-by-the-coalition-i-def-cover.jpg"]
