Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

"My lord, if the current situation develops and my lord sends troops to attack Jingzhou, it will be difficult for Jingzhou to last long, and my lord will also be in close combat with Cao Cao's army." Zhou Yu said, through this war, Zhou Yu realized Cao Cao's power and ambition.

If there is no one to check such people, the most likely situation will be that Cao Cao becomes dominant in the Central Plains. In this case, it will be extremely difficult for Jiangdong to achieve long-term development.

Liu Bei has ambitions, Cao Cao has ambitions, and the same goes for Jiangdong. But anyone with insight can see that troubled times have come. Who can gain much benefit and achieve what kind of achievements in troubled times depends on their own abilities.

Sun Ce wondered: "In Gong Jin's opinion, could it be that he is joining forces with Liu Bei to fight against Cao Cao?"

Zhou Yu nodded and said: "My lord, when you attack Jingzhou, the one who will gain the most is Cao Cao. At this time, Cao Cao owns Yanzhou, Yuzhou, and Xuzhou, and has many soldiers and generals. Although Liu Bei has occupied Yizhou, his own strength is not stable."

, there are many people in the Jingzhou family who oppose Liu Bei, otherwise Cao Cao would not easily seize Nanyang County. If the lord supports Jingzhou, there is no need to send troops. As expected, Cao Cao sent the envoy to appease the lord. The lord

You can profit from it, you don't have to use a single soldier, and you can still get enough benefits, so why not do it."

What he said made Sun Ce couldn't help but nod. Before, he always thought about how to seize Jingzhou from Liu Bei's hands. After all, the grievances between Jingzhou and Jiangdong have been around for a long time, and Jingzhou is the biggest obstacle to Jiangdong's outward development. Now it seems that

But you can get it without paying.

"Just what Gong Jin said." Sun Ce said that in the face of interests, the hatred between Jiangdong and Jingzhou can be temporarily put aside.

"Send the order for Sun Qian to come." Sun Ce said. He knew that the Jingzhou army would spare no effort to deal with Cao Cao this time, especially after Nanyang County was captured by Cao Cao's army, Xiangyang became Cao's army's target.

After Sun Qian saluted, he glanced at Zhou Yu who was next to Sun Ce with a fearful look on his face. This time he went to Jiangdong, the biggest obstacle was Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu was a wise man. If Zhou Yu could not be persuaded, he would have no choice but to unite with Sun Ce.

A difficult thing.

In fact, Zhuge Liang's purpose is very simple. To prevent Jiangdong from attacking Jingzhou at this time, if possible, it is best to attack Shouchun and contain Cao's army. Cao Cao has a Yangzhou county in his hands. Shouchun was extremely in Yuan Shu's hands at the time.

Although prosperity has gone through many wars, the foundation is still there, and the geographical location of Shouchun is extremely important. After capturing it, it will be of great help to Jiangdong.

"The Holy One sent me here because of the war in Jingzhou. Cao Cao is an ambitious man. It is in vain that His Majesty trusted Cao Cao so much, but he sent troops to attack Jingzhou at this time. The Holy One was furious. I have heard that Wu Hou is loyal to the Han Dynasty.

Geng Geng, who crusades against Yuan Shu and attacks Bingzhou, is a minister of the Han Dynasty..."

"Just say whatever you have to say." Sun Ce directly interrupted Sun Qian's next words.

Sun Qian was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Marquis Wu is indeed a cheerful person, so I can make it clear. Now Jingzhou is in danger. If Marquis Wu is willing to send troops to contain Cao Cao, Jingzhou can be preserved. If Jingzhou is lost, Jiangdong will be destroyed."

It will inevitably fall into a crisis."

Sun Ce snorted coldly: "Jiangdong is in crisis. I don't agree with this. Jiangdong has tens of thousands of elite soldiers. Even if Cao Cao leads his troops, how can I be afraid? Moreover, Shanyang Marquis has sent envoys to communicate with me. When discussing the alliance, if I agree with Jingzhou, wouldn’t I become an enemy of Cao’s army?”

Sun Qian's expression was slightly stagnant. He obviously did not expect Sun Ce to say such a thing. There is also a rift between Sun Ce and Cao Cao. This is not a secret among the princes. If Jiangdong and Cao Cao join forces at this time, At the same time, Jingzhou is in complete danger. Jiangdong and Jingzhou have a long history of enmity. Even after Liu Biao succeeded to the throne, it still could not be changed. Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia, died at the hands of Jiangdong's army. However, the Jiangdong army's The naval force was extremely powerful, and Liu Biao had no choice.

"If the Marquis of Wu does not unite with Cao's army, the Holy Father has promised to make Zhang Zhao the shepherd of Jiaozhou and take charge of the military and political affairs of Jiaozhou." Sun Qian said.

Sun Ce laughed and said: "If I want to hand over the state, do I still need the approval of the Holy One? Do the people of Jingzhou still think that the princes will obey the Holy One's words? If the Holy One is so capable, why don't they order the Marquis of Jin to lead the troops?" If we attack Yanzhou, then Jingzhou will not be in danger."

Sun Qian's face turned red. Although he knew these truths, few people would say them openly. After all, this world is still the Han Dynasty. Sun Ce's words were full of provocation. This was a sign of the Han Dynasty. The lack of respect for others is, to put it worse, rebellious.

"Why should the Marquis of Wu be so aggressive here? Cao Cao's army conquered Jingzhou. How could the Marquis of Wu get a share of the pie? Cao Cao's army had a hundred thousand soldiers and countless elite soldiers. Cao Cao must have been involved with Lu Bu, and both sides were united. After that, it is obvious that he will sweep the world." Sun Qian said.

Sun Ce's expression changed slightly. He naturally understood the reason behind this. However, leaving Jingzhou's most critical moment and not sending troops to gain benefits from it, he still felt a little reluctant to give up. Jingzhou is a rich land. If it can be obtained, it will have a great impact on Jiangdong. Huge benefits, it has the same effect as Liu Bei's capture of Yizhou.

"How can I care about the mere shepherd of Jiaozhou? If we attack Jiaozhou, it will be the sons of Jiangdong who will be harmed." Sun Ce snorted coldly.

Seeing that Sun Ce's words were much softer, Sun Qian was moved in his heart and said with a smile: "If Wu Hou is willing to unite with Jingzhou, Jingzhou is willing to give up the land of Xuzhou and make Zhou Yu the shepherd of Xuzhou. I wonder what Wu Hou wants?"

A flash of light flashed in Sun Ce's eyes. Sun Ce had coveted Xuzhou for a long time. However, if he wanted to conquer Xuzhou, the first thing he had to do was to attack Shouchun. It can be said that Cao Cao's power in Shouchun greatly restricted Jiangdong's outward expansion. pace.

Seeing Sun Ce's move, Sun Qian said: "The Holy Lord has heard that Wu Hou is brave. If Wu Hou agrees, he will be the chariot general of the Han Dynasty. The status of the chariot general is equal to that of the three princes."

Sun Ce seemed to have made great determination, and said slowly: "If you want me to form an alliance with Jingzhou, Jingzhou must give Jiangdong thousands of war horses, two hundred thousand stones of grain and grass, and hundreds of warships, and Xuzhou must give him at this time But it’s in Cao Cao’s hands.”

Sun Qian was silent for a moment and said: "This is a difficult task for a strong man. Jingzhou is currently dealing with Cao's army. There is not much money and food in the treasury. When Jingzhou is stabilized, there will definitely be generous rewards." Sun Qian said.
