Since it has not snowed in recent days, the weather has warmed up a lot.
The warm sun was in the sky, the snow on the branches had melted, and a wintersweet was blooming in the yard.
It was an elegant scene.
After seeing it, Sun Quan was in a good mood.
Not long ago in Chibi, he defeated Cao Cao's million-strong army with Zhou Yu's 30,000 men.
Now, he just had to wait for Zhang Zhao to pacify Tang Jian's station and for Chen Wu and Xu Sheng to capture Fu Ying in Wanling, and then he could send troops to Hefei.
As long as these were completed, the strategic opportunity that Zhou Yu told him to stabilize the south of the Yangtze River and go north to fight for the world would be completely ripe.
A few days ago, a large amount of supplies brought back by Fu Tong, a general of Tang Jian's army, were intercepted on the river, and more than 6,000 people were killed and injured.
It can be said that the results of the battle were fruitful.
So he was in a good mood today.
So he walked under the tree, picked up a plum blossom that had fallen on the ground, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, and then he heard footsteps coming from behind him.
An official came in with a battle report in hand, stood in the corridor, and called out to his lord.
Sun Quan did not turn his head back, and placed the plum blossom in his hand on the tree branch again.
Then he tilted his head slightly and asked:
"What do you have to report?"
The official replied: "My lord, when General Zhou Yu was fighting with Cao Ren in Nanjun, he was tricked by Cao Ren and shot by an arrow."
"Liu Bei took the opportunity to seize Jingzhou!"
"What!???"
After hearing this, Sun Quan's face suddenly changed!
The plum blossom that had just been placed on the tree branch also fell to the ground!
He walked a few steps anxiously, grabbed the battle report and read it.
After reading it, he was even more angry!
"What a Liu Xuande!"
"What a Zhuge Kongming!"
Then he read the battle report, but did not say what happened to Zhou Yu.
So he hurriedly asked: "Do you know how Gongjin was injured?"
The official replied: "This... I don't know."
After hearing this, Sun Quan was so angry that he wanted to beat him with the battle report.
However, Sun Quan was angry, but he could still hold it in.
Unlike his elder brother Sun Ce and his third brother Sun Yi, who were so irritable.
It was precisely because of his relatively stable temper that when Sun Ce died, he was assured to hand over the foundation to him.
"Quick, summon the civil and military officials to the hall to discuss matters!"
The official took the order and hurriedly left.
Sun Quan unfolded the battle report again and read it carefully.
Then he gritted his teeth in anger.
Such good weather and such a good view today were unfortunately ruined by this bad news.
So Sun Quan gritted his teeth, threw his sleeves, and returned to the back house.
Not long after, officials came one after another and sat in the living room one after another.
Sun Quan then held the sword and slowly entered from the side door.
Everyone stood up and saluted Sun Quan.
"Greetings, my lord!"
Sun Quan came to the main seat, sat down steadily, and asked everyone to excuse themselves.
Then he immediately asked someone to read the war report in public.
After reading it, everyone in the hall immediately started to discuss!
"This...Jingzhou was taken away by Liu Bei?"
"It must be another trick of Kong Ming!"
"Even Governor Zhou was injured?"
"We shouldn't have joined forces with Liu Bei in the first place. Now I am fighting hard in Jiangdong, and Liu Bei is taking my territory from behind. How can we tolerate such behavior?"
"If it were you, you should send troops to destroy Liu Bei! To eliminate future troubles! Then go north to fight for the world with Cao Cao!"
Seeing everyone talking at once, Sun Quan was annoyed.
So he looked at Bu Zhi, who was sitting in the first seat.
This position is usually occupied by Zhang Zhao.
But Zhang Zhao went to Dantu, so he should have come back.
But there is still no response to this day.
So Sun Quan asked Bu Zhi for advice:
"Zishan, what do you think about this?"
Bu Zhi was one of the top people in Jiangdong, so he naturally saw the core of the matter.
The current situation is that Sun Quan wants to take advantage of Cao Cao's defeat and weakness to attack Hefei and open up the eastern battlefield.
On the western front, there are Cao Cao's troops in front and Liu Bei and Kong Ming on the side who may come to take a bite at any time. The situation is too complicated.
In addition, Zhou Yu was also injured.
It would be better to stop the war directly, send envoys to negotiate with Liu Bei and Kong Ming, and ask them to give up Jingzhou.
At the same time, the excess troops will be transferred to attack Hefei.
Thinking of this, Bu Zhi bowed and said:
"Lord Wu, I think whether Jingzhou can be taken depends entirely on the merits of Governor Zhou."
"Now that the governor is injured, it is better to stop the war for the time being, withdraw some troops and horses to attack Hefei."
Before he finished speaking, people around him began to whisper and express different opinions:
"What is Bu Zishan talking about?"
"Are you going to let Liu Bei get Jingzhou for nothing?"
"That's right, talking like this is tantamount to betraying your master!"
Bu Zhi looked back and sneered nonchalantly.
Sun Quan knew that Bu Zhi's words had not yet been said.After that, he asked, "Zishan, please tell me more."
Bu Zhi said, "As for Jingzhou, let Liu Bei and Kong Ming fight with Cao's army, and the Marquis of Wu only needs to send someone who is good at speaking to negotiate with Liu Bei and ask for Jingzhou back."
"Even if they don't return it, we can wait until Governor Zhou recovers from his injury before turning against him and fighting."
"And the Marquis of Wu can also recall elite soldiers and generals to besiege Hefei. In this way, both ends can be taken care of, and Hefei will have a better chance of winning."
"I hope the Marquis of Wu will think twice."
After listening to Bu Zhi's words, Sun Quan was overjoyed.
Then he nodded repeatedly and said, "Zishan's words are really golden and jade!"
"But..."
He glanced at the people in the field. These people were all defeated by Zhuge Liang.
No one could survive a round under Kong Ming's firepower.
If these people were asked to ask for Jingzhou back, they would probably fail.
The only person who could refute Kong Ming was not on the same page with him, so he had to be eliminated as soon as possible!
At the moment, there was no suitable person to ask for Jingzhou back for Dongwu.
So, Sun Quan was very distressed and said:
"Who can go to ask for Jingzhou back?"
Bu Zhi smiled and said, "I can recommend two people."
Sun Quan hurriedly asked, "Which two people?"
Bu Zhi said, "The first one is Zhuge Kongming's elder brother, Zhuge Jin."
"If the lord asks him to ask Kongming for Jingzhou, Kongming will definitely not make things difficult for him."
"However, he and Kongming are blood brothers after all, and the lord must prevent him from not being able to get Jingzhou and betraying the lord and joining Liu Bei."
After listening, Sun Quan nodded slowly and asked again:
"Then, what about the other person?"
Bu Zhi replied, "The other person is Lu Su, Lu Zijing."
"Zijing?"
After listening, Sun Quan raised his hand and stroked his beard.
According to his understanding of Lu Su, this person is loyal and honest, but not good at eloquence.
I'm afraid he is not a match for Kongming and Liu Bei.
Bu Zhi said: "Lu Zijing played an indispensable role in the alliance between Liu Bei and the lord."
"I think Liu Bei and Kong Ming will not make things difficult for him."
"Besides, Zijing is in Chaisang. If there is anything wrong, you can discuss it directly with Gongjin."
After listening to this, Sun Quan immediately felt that Bu Zhi was also a good talent!
He was able to take all these things into consideration, and then make a summary and give a strategy.
Thinking of this, Sun Quan nodded secretly, and then said:
"Okay, according to Zishan's words, let Gongjin withdraw his troops and return to Chaisang to recuperate. Let Lu Zijing go to Liu Bei to ask for Jingzhou back!"
