Rebirth of the God of War Lu Bu

Chapter 2231: Sun Qian persuaded Gao Ding

When Gao Ding learned that Sun Qian was not in a hurry, he looked puzzled. After a moment's thought, he understood Sun Qian's intention, and a smile appeared on his lips. Regardless of the current situation in Yizhou, the most anxious person was Liu Bei. , once the city of Chengdu is captured, Liu Bei will become a lost dog, and the Yizhou court will become a joke. Therefore, Liu Bei is in urgent need of reinforcements from the southern counties.

Sun Qian can still maintain his demeanor without being arrogant or impetuous at this time, which makes Gao Ding somewhat admired.

"I've met Governor Gao." Sun Qian cupped his hands and said.

"The envoy came from afar, and I was unable to greet him. I hope the envoy will forgive me." Gao Ding said with a smile. Even so, Gao Ding only slightly bowed his hand, which did not reflect the importance he attached to the envoy from the imperial court.

Sun Qian said with a calm expression: "Prefect Gao is busy with affairs, which is reasonable."

"I wonder why the envoy came from Chengdu?" Gaoding asked.

Sun Qiandao: "I think Gao Taishou also has a certain understanding of the current situation in Yizhou. The traitor Lu Bu led his troops to attack Yizhou. Yizhou is in danger, and the court is in danger. As a minister of the Han Dynasty, Gao Taishou should send troops at this time of crisis." Rescue the imperial court.”

Gao Ding said: "What if I don't send troops?"

"Then Governor Gao will definitely not be able to defend Yue Wei." Sun Qian said calmly, as if he was not worried at all about whether Gao Ding would send troops.

Gao Ding frowned slightly, "I wonder what the messenger meant by this?"

"Prefect Gao must have heard about the King of Jin. Since he led his troops into battle, he has rarely suffered defeats. He has many powerful generals under his command and has abundant troops. After he conquers Chengdu, how can he sit back and watch as he dominates Yuexi? "Sun Qian asked rhetorically.

Gao Ding was silent when he heard this. He had naturally considered this situation. Lu Bu led his troops to attack Yizhou and broke through the city all the way to the gates of Chengdu. Gao Ding had to re-examine Lu Bu. In the past, Lu Bu did have a lot of problems. He has a small prestige, but Gao Ding is the governor of Yuexi, and Yuexi is far away from Chang'an. It is basically impossible for Lu Bu to conquer Yizhou. Yizhou's terrain is dangerous, even if Lu Bu has 200,000 elite soldiers under his command. What can we do? If we don't attack Yizhou, we can't threaten the counties in the south of Yizhou.

It is not a problem for Gaoding to continue to live freely in the southern counties. However, the arrival of Lu Bu has caused earth-shaking changes in the situation in Yizhou. Judging from the current situation, if the Yizhou army cannot defend the city of Chengdu, This means that the most prosperous counties in Yizhou fell into Lu Bu's hands.

It is impossible to gain more advantages from Lu Bu. Being able to defeat the Yizhou Army shows Lu Bu's strength. The most important thing is that Lu Bu's achievements in the past have forced Gaoding to have more advantages. After much thinking, after Lu Bu stabilized the other counties in Yizhou, he would definitely not let the southern counties continue like this.

Once Lu Bu sends troops to the southern counties, what should they do? It will be more difficult to fight against Lu Bu with the soldiers and horses in the southern counties.

The current situation in southern counties is still relatively complicated, but Couture does not want to lose the power in its hands.

"If I send troops, what benefits will I get?" Gao Ding asked.

Sun Qiandao said: "Prefect Gao is a minister of the Han Dynasty. Now that the Han Dynasty is in danger, it is the duty of a minister to send troops there. If Gao Taishou can save the court, there is no need to worry about not receiving a reward from the Holy One."

Gao Ding snorted coldly: "People in the Ming Dynasty don't tell secrets. Since the King of Hanzhong wants me to send troops and doesn't want to pay something, how can it be so simple?"

Seeing that Gaoding's expression was not fake, judging from Gaoding's performance just now, it is clear that he has been tempted. If Gaoding sends troops, the current situation in Yizhou can be alleviated to a great extent.

"I heard that Governor Gao is known as the King of Yue Yi in Yue Yi. If Governor Gao is willing to send troops, the Holy One will make Governor Gao the King of Yi of Yue Yi. I wonder what Governor Gao thinks?" Sun Qian said.

"It's true that I am so easy to fool. The envoy must know better what the court's situation is now. It's absolutely impossible for me to send troops just because of the mere title of King Yue Yi." Gao Ding flatly refused. , If he does not get enough benefits at the most critical moment in Yizhou, it will be impossible to have such an opportunity in the future. Being able to get more benefits from the imperial court means that his strength can be greatly improved, Yue Xi The title of King Yi has great appeal to him, but Gao Ding understands that today's Yizhou is about strength. Only with enough strength can you have a foothold in Yizhou, otherwise you can only be manipulated by others. exist.

It's not that Liu Bei doesn't want to pacify the southern counties, but because the current situation in the southern counties has determined that if he wants to stabilize the southern counties, he must wait until Yizhou is truly stabilized. In fact, Liu Bei's plan is to pacify the southern counties. , making Yizhou more united, this kind of gain is huge. It not only exercises the ability of the army's generals to fight in battle, but also can get the support of the southern counties, which is also extremely beneficial to Liu Bei.

Yizhou has the advantage of geographical location, and the powerful princes around it also restrict Liu Bei's development. If there are other voices inside, it is not what Liu Bei wants to see.

How could Gaoding not understand this truth? The southern counties secretly accumulated strength and showed unity in order to make Liu Bei even more afraid of the power of the south.

Now that Yizhou is in danger, Liu Bei has no time to take care of the southern counties and has to ask for help from the southern counties.

"Does Governor Gao think that the imperial court can be bullied? As a minister of the Han Dynasty, when the imperial court is in danger, he threatens the imperial court. Hasn't Governor Gao thought about the consequences?" Sun Qian said.

Who can Gaoding achieve today's achievements in the chaotic situation of the southern counties? It is extraordinary in itself. The situation in Yizhou is critical and he wants to threaten the southern counties. It is just in name. He is powerful. The princes can ignore the influence of the imperial court, why can't he do so.

"If that's the case, it's better to invite the envoy back. The southern counties are unstable, and barbarians often cause chaos under my administration. There aren't many soldiers and horses that can be used." Gaoding snorted coldly.

Sun Qian's expression changed slightly. He didn't know whether what Gao Ding said was true. However, if Gao Ding did not send troops, the crisis in Yizhou would not be relieved and it would inevitably be in greater danger.

"I wonder what Governor Gao wants?" Sun Qian asked.

Gao Ding secretly sneered. Sun Qian's performance showed how urgent the current situation in Yizhou was. It would be difficult to suppress him in the name of the imperial court.

"I want Shu County to belong to the country." Gao Ding said.
