At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted

Everything was as Zhou Yu expected. At this moment, there were constant sounds of beating and smashing in Wu Jun, Wu County's general's mansion.

When Sun Quan learned that Yuzhang had fallen, he was furious.

Especially after hearing that Liu Bei succeeded because Zhou Yu transferred the Yuzhang garrison away, he hated him madly.

But the news that came next made Sun Quan just smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach!

Zhou Yu defeated Huang Zu and successfully occupied Xiling.

It won't be long before Zhou Yu can completely occupy Jiangxia County.

Although Yuzhang County was lost, Zhou Yu made great contributions. How could Sun Quan blame Zhou Yu at this time?

What's more, the loss of Yuzhang County put Danyang County and Kuaiji County under the threat of Liu Beijun at all times.

Forcibly hold Zhou Yu accountable, what if he is pushed into a hurry?

Seeing Liu Ji kneeling in front of him, Sun Quan was even more angry.

It stands to reason that Liu Ji privately mobilized the soldiers and horses of Yuzhang County to Zhou Yu, which is a crime worthy of death!

But Liu Ji's soldiers and horses belonged to private soldiers, and Liu Ji was the former Yangzhou shepherd and the eldest son of Liu Yao, a clan member of the Han family, with a noble status and status!

Unless Sun Quan wanted Jiangdong to set off another rebellion, not only would he not be able to punish Liu Ji, but he would have to persuade him with good words and entrust him with important responsibilities.

This can not only appease the hearts of Liu Yao's former troops, but also make the people in Jiangdong feel grateful for Sun Quan's kindness and kindness.

"Prefect Liu, please get up!"

"The attack on Yuzhang County is entirely due to the big-eared thief Liu Bei, who has no shame and has nothing to do with Liu Taishou!"

Liu Ji breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had already received Zhou Yu's guarantee, he could only feel at ease when he heard Sun Quan's forgiveness.

"Thank you Marquis Wu!"

"Liu Taishou will rest in Wu County for a while, and wait for the big-eared thief to be killed before going to his post!"

Sun Quan was extremely polite, and Liu Ji was also grateful.

"Thank you Marquis Wu, I will take my leave!"

Liu Ji didn't stay long, and hurriedly surrendered.

From Yuzhang to Wu County for hundreds of miles, Liu Ji was exhausted physically and mentally.

After Liu Ji left, a figure slowly walked out from behind.

If Liu Zhang was here, he would definitely recognize him at a glance.

It was one of the four major families in Jiangdong, Gu Yong and Gu Yuantan, the disciple of Liu Zhang's father-in-law Cai Yong.

Gu Yong is the talent that Sun Quan relies on most in the Jiangdong family.

Sun Quan's official position in the imperial court was general begging captives, prefect of Kuaiji, and Gu Yong was magistrate of Kuaiji.

The appointment of this position is also Sun Quan's announcement to the family that he is determined to reuse talents from Jiangdong.

"Yuan Tan, what do you think about this matter?"

Gu Yong silently watched Liu Ji go away completely, and then he folded his hands and looked at Sun Quan.

"My lord, Yuzhang County has a lot to do with it, and it must be taken back from Liu Bei!"

Sun Quan nodded in satisfaction. With Gu Yong's words, it shows that the Jiangdong family in Yuzhang is willing to contribute.

"Then what do you think I should do? Let Zhou Yu lead the army to attack Yuzhang?"

"No!"

Gu Yong immediately rejected Sun Quan's proposal, and his words cannot be questioned.

"Captain Zhou has just captured Jiangxia County, and it will take some time for stability. How can you move lightly?"

"What's more, how can you use a sledgehammer to kill a chicken? There are many talented people in Jiangdong who are good at fighting, why should my lord bother Zhou Dudu?"

Sun Quan was taken aback for a moment, then immediately nodded his approval.

"I wonder if Yuan Tan has a suitable candidate?"

"Zhu Heng, Zhu Zhi, He Qi, and Dong Xi are all talented generals. Kuaiji Buzhi and Yu Fan are resourceful men. If they go out to fight, they will definitely be able to defeat Liu Bei and successfully retake Yuzhang County!"

Sun Quan didn't respond on the surface, but in fact, there was a wave of turmoil in his heart.

Commanders such as Cheng Pu and Chen Wu are not used by fierce generals, but they promote the younger generation of the Jiangdong faction!

It seems that Gu Yong has already decided to compete with the Huaisi faction!

However, Sun Quan was happy that the two factions were fighting each other, fighting back and forth in order to ensure Sun Quan's dominance.

"Yuan Tan, most of the Chinese army has been transferred away by Zhou Yu, and the military strength may be insufficient!"

"I heard that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang led an army of 50,000 in a sneak attack, and their ambitions are extraordinary!"

Gu Yong smiled, as if he had been waiting for Sun Quan's words for a long time.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the disciples of Jiangdong have always been brave and good at fighting, defeating powerful enemies!"

"You can let Zhu Zhi and others recruit their own troops. As for weapons and armor, there is no need for the Lord to worry."

"Weichen is willing to persuade the families in Jiangdong to support them, so as to ensure the smooth march of the army!"

Sun Quan sneered in his heart, and he saw Gu Yong's plan at a glance.

Before the rebellion in various parts of Jiangdong, these aristocratic families wantonly expanded their soldiers under the banner of fighting the rebellion for Sun Quan.

Now that the rebellion has been quelled, they are all hidden. When Sun Quan asked, there were no private soldiers.

Gu Yong must have taken this opportunity to legalize all private soldiers!

It's just that these things still don't matter to Sun Quan!

It is naturally a good thing to be able to recover Yuzhang County without spending money, food, or troops.

However, Sun Quan could not satisfy the Jiangdong family without restrictions, and had to add some constraints to them.

"Since Yuan Tan is so confident, then I won't ask any more questions!"

"It's just that this army doesn't have a decent commander. How about letting Cheng Pu lead them?"

Hearing the word Cheng Pu, Gu Yong's delighted smile immediately froze on his face, but soon recovered.

"My lord, General Cheng has been frightening Jiang Dong Xiaoxiao, how can he move lightly?"

joke!

Gu Yong certainly could not agree to Sun Quan's request.

It is true that Cheng Pu belongs to the Huaisi faction, but he even belongs to the elder faction.

This is a general who has followed the Sun family since the time of Sun Jian.

If Cheng Pu is appointed as the commander in chief, wouldn't the Jiangdong family be completely stuck to death?

Even if Gu Yong didn't want Yuzhang, he couldn't agree to Sun Quan's request.

"But these people have no experience in leading troops. How can they be the opponents of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, who are old and cunning!"

Sun Quan was not angry either, he had already guessed that Gu Yong would not agree.

Anyway, I raised the question for you, if you don’t agree, you will be responsible for the defeat!

Sun Quan's question really baffled Gu Yong.

Usually Jiangdong's tough battles are won by veterans like Zhou Yu and Cheng Pu, and the Jiangdong family will also drink some soup.

Now it is really not that easy to fight a war independently.

Especially when the opponent is an old Jianghu like Liu Bei, treacherous and cunning!

Gu Yong's idea is to use this opportunity to completely let the Jiangdong family control the military power, so as to crush Zhou Yu and others of the Huaisi faction in all directions.

But once you lose, let alone suppress Zhou Yu, you will be directly crushed to death by Zhou Yu.

Sun Quan can also say openly in the future, it's not that you are not reused, but that you are giving you Jiangdong people a chance to be useless yourself!

The more he thought about it, the more Gu Yong worried, and the less he dared to explain to Sun Quan that the Jiangdong people had full power to handle the battle in Yuzhang County.

At this moment, a picture suddenly appeared in Gu Yong's mind.
