Chapter 864 Zhuge Liang enters Jiangdong
The people of Jingzhou all admire the virtue of the emperor and hope to be under his jurisdiction. Now I want to compete with Cao Cao, which is not only the wish of martial arts in the context of Jingzhou, but also the wishes of the people of Jingzhou. Just like the people of Jiangdong, they all respect the Marquis of Wu, and they are fortunate to be unified. If Jiangdong changes the owner, it will really lose the hope of the people!"
Lu Xun's bright star eyes suddenly shot two fine light, carefully recalling Zhuge Liang's words, unconsciously showing admiration, and arched his hand to thank him.
"Thank you for your advice. As you said, the popularity of the people is the way to govern the world!"
Lu Xun said that he would return to his seat. Zhuge Liang looked at Lu Xun's figure and admired him in his heart. Lu Boyan was young, but he had such insight, and he would become a great weapon in the future!
Gu Yong, who was originally preparing to confront Zhuge Liang, heard the two people's arguments and muttered the word "people's hope" in his mouth, and unconsciously lost his mind.
The ministers in Jiangdong in the hall made secret glances one after another, and no one dared to make things difficult. At this moment, a person suddenly came in from the outside and shouted harshly.
"Zhuge Kongming is a genius in the world. It is difficult for you to talk to each other, which is not a gift of hospitality. Now Cao Cao wants to violate Jingzhou. Jingzhou is adjacent to my Jiangdong, and his lips are dead and his teeth are cold! If Cao Cao gets Jingzhou, Jiangdong will be in danger. At present, we should think about the strategy of breaking the enemy. It's not about intrigue here and make trouble for each other!!!"
Everyone looks at his people, and he is the veteran Han Dang. Han Dang is an old minister of Jiangdong. He followed Sun Jian everywhere and made countless achievements. In Jiangdong, no one disrespects his face.
When everyone saw that it was Han Dang, their faces changed. Han Dang walked in and bowed to Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang also went back to worship. Han Dang stared at the tiger's eyes and shouted in a condensed voice.
"If Kong Ming wants to get together with the two families, why not persuade him to speak the theory of gold and stone? Now it's unwise to argue with everyone and argue with each other!"
Zhuge Liang certainly smiled when he heard the words.
"You ask each other questions about each other's difficulties and satirize Kong Ming. Kong Ming can still tolerate it. But there are many people who satirize my Lord. Kong Ming, as a minister, can't answer.
Han Dang snorted coldly, so he stared at everyone. After suing Zhuge Liang, he led Zhuge Liang into the main hall. At the middle gate, he met Zhuge Jin and Lu Su. Zhuge Liang looked at him secretly and walked away.
In a short time, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu walked side by side. Zhuge Liang looked at Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, smiling and bowing to salute. Sun Ce and Zhou Yu didn't look good. They deliberately didn't come out just now. They heard Zhuge Liang's theory clearly. When Sun Ce saw the ministers in Jiangdong, none of them could take advantage of Zhuge Liang's mouth, and he couldn't help but be disgusted with Zhuge Liang. Zhou Yu was also more afraid of Zhuge Liang and had a stronger intention of killing.
The two of them have their own thoughts, but they pretend to be enthusiastic, lower their grades and greet each other with courtesy. After Shi Li, Sun Ce sat down in Zhuge Liang. The literature and martial arts are divided into two lines. Lu Su stood on the side of Kong Ming and only watched him speak. Zhuge Liang then said the meaning of the two alliances, and at the same time, he secretly looked at Sun Ce and thought in his heart.
"Sun Bofu is arrogant and often compares with Xiang Ji. These people can only be excited and can't be said. In this way, you will get twice the result with half the effort!"
After the tea was served, Sun Ce smiled and did not answer the matter of the alliance. He looked down at Zhuge Liang condescendingly and said.
"Haha! In the past, I fought with Kong Ming in Jingzhou. Kong Ming's strategy was profound, which made me suffer a lot. After that, the Sun and Liu families were originally connected. However, in recent years, the imperial court has appointed our governor of Jiangdong as the governor of Nanjun. In order to reason, Kong Ming should hand over Nanjun to our Jiangdong. Kong Ming repeatedly excused his resignation, so that the relationship between the two families was bad. Now he saw that the situation was not good, so he asked us for help from Jiangdong. How can there be such a cheap thing in the world!?"
Zhuge Liang knew that his grandson would be embarrassed by him. He had already answered in his heart and replied quickly.
"The handover matters are extremely complicated, and my master benefited from the begging of Liu Jiyu, who went to Xichuan and Nanjun. The matter is very big, and I dare not make a decision without permission. Don't blame Wuhou!"
"Oh? In your words, is it possible that Uncle Liu doesn't return to Jingzhou for a day, and this southern county can't be returned to me in Jiangdong for a day!?
Sun Ce's eyes condensed and pressed towards Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang smiled and replied without panic.
"Since it is the order of the imperial court, how dare Liang to shirk it. What's more, my lord is an honest man, how can he forcibly occupy other people's land? Liang has already sent the document to tell my lord about it. Wu Hou, don't worry too much.
Hearing this, Sun Ce smiled coldly, and then turned his words and said.
"Kong Ming knows that Cao Cao has sent an envoy here recently, promising that if I will ally with him, we will break through Jingzhou. After the event is completed, will it be divided into Nan County and Jiangxia County to me?
Cao Cao is powerful. If I, Dongwu, unite with it, Jingzhou will definitely lose. I won the two counties of Nan County and Jiangxia in Eastern Wu, which can be said to be ten to nine.
But if I unite with you to fight against Cao Cao, I don't care whether I win or lose for the time being. In this battle, our Eastern Wu will lose a lot of troops and huge grain, but when it is done, we have to belong to the South County in Jiangdong. Kong Ming is a wise person. Why don't you teach me how to choose!?" Sun Ce had a joking smile on his face and stared at Zhuge Liang as if he was looking forward to watching Zhuge Liang. However, Zhuge Liang's reaction was beyond Sun Ce's expectation. Zhuge Liang did not answer immediately, but asked Sun Ce.
"Do you know how many Cao Cao's troops are?"
As soon as Sun Ce heard this, his face suddenly turned dark. He also heard about Cao Cao's possession of millions of soldiers, and immediately meditated.
Zhuge Liang answered himself.
"There are a million people in the Mabu Shuijun. When Cao Cao was in Yanzhou, there were 200,000 Qingzhou troops, and Yuan Shao was flattened, and another 400,000 were obtained; the newly recruited soldiers in the Central Plains were 300,000 or 400,000. Cao Cao gathered a million people, the power of the world, and the resourceful people, and the generals who can be used to war are more than one or two thousand people. In addition to the Cao family in the Central Plains, the existing forces in the world are the Northwest Wen Clan, the Jiangdong Sun Clan, the Yizhou Liu Clan, and the Jingzhou guarded by our Lord. If Cao Cao breaks it, in less than ten years, the world will fall into Cao Cao's hands.
If you want to fight against Cao Cao, only when many forces join hands can they fight against him. At that time, Wen Fanfan was rising up to invade Liu Jiyu in Yizhou. The two families fought a fierce battle, and Cao Cao was about to take advantage of Jingzhou first. If Jingzhou loses, whether it goes north or south, with its soldiers and horses, it is a sure victory! At that time, there is only one family left, and there is no way to go except to surrender and protect yourself!
Lu Su was beside him and turned pale when he heard the words. He looked at Zhuge Liang and signaled him not to provoke Sun Ce. Zhuge Liang turned a blind eye to it. Sun Ce's face changed repeatedly, and his eyes were vicious, like an angry tiger that was about to run away. At this moment, Zhou Yu said urgently.
"Kong Ming's words are not good. If I get the South County and Jiangxia in Eastern Wu, plus the two counties of Changsha and Guiyang, and the land of the river in Jingzhou, they all belong to my Eastern Wu. At that time, I can be a soldier in the four counties. I can attack and retreat. With the hero of my lord and the danger of Eastern Wu, Cao Cao may not be able to gain ambition!"
Zhuge Liang couldn't help laughing when he heard the words. Zhou Yu frowned and was about to ask. Zhuge Liang scrambled to be the first.
"Cao Cao's strategy, how can Gong Jin not know!? At the same time, even if Jiangdong has all the four counties of Linjiang in Jingzhou, the number of soldiers and horses is only more than 300,000. Cao Cao fought against him with millions of heroes, not to mention that Marquis Wu and Gong Jin were heroes in the world and were not afraid of strength. But if the soldiers see it, I'm afraid they will fight before they fight! In addition, although the Marquis of Wu has the courage of Xiang Ji, there are also peerless fierce generals under Cao Cao Cao's command. Cao Zixiao, Zhang Jun and Xia Hou brothers are all brave and knowledgeable generals, and they are the counselors who give advice for him, such as the 'ghost' Guo Fengxiao, the 'poisoner' Jia Wenhe and other generations, all of whom have unrivaled talents. If the Marquis of Wu really wants to fight against Cao Cao, with Liang's foolish opinion, I'm afraid it's less than 30% chance of winning!!! Wuhou's affairs are urgent and continuous, and the disaster is endless!"
Zhou Yu listened to the words, his face was cold, and he did not answer for the time being. At this time, Xue Zong got up an angry and deliberately angered Zhuge Liang and shouted.
"If this is the case. Why didn't my lord join Cao Cao early? He can also get the throne, and the ministers in Jiangdong can also keep their families from trouble!"
Lu Su was stunned and quickly retorted to Xue Zong.
"Your words are bad! Jiangdong Foundation has been two generations, how can it be abandoned to others? This statement is a fallacy of great rebelliousness! Don't say it again!"
Xue Zong was about to open his mouth, but suddenly Sun Ce's eyes burst out two cold lights. He had already secretly known that Xue Zong had more contact with Cao Cao in recent years and received a lot of gold and silk. This time, Liu Ye entered Jiangdong, and Liu Ye repeatedly went to Xue Zong's mansion. At this time, Xue Zong ignored his previous words that he could no longer mention the surrender of Cao, and he even confirmed that Xue Zong had secretly voted for Cao Cao.
Xue Zong didn't know that he was about to have a big disaster. He argued with Lu Su, but Zhuge Liang stood aside and sneered. Zhou Yu looked at it, his face was cold, and he asked coldly.
"Why is Kong Ming laughing?"
With Zhou Yu's voice, Xue Zong and Lu Su suddenly stopped arguing and looked at it. Zhuge Liang saluted respectfully and then said.
"If you don't laugh at others, you just laugh at the time when you don't respect them."
As soon as Zhuge Liang said this, everyone couldn't help but be surprised. Lu Su's face was full of urgency. I don't know why Zhuge Liang suddenly defected and asked harshly.
"Kong Ming actually wants the Sun and Liu families to form an alliance. How can he laugh at me for not knowing the current affairs?"
Zhuge Liang silently took a large number of Sun Ce, and then looked at Xue Zong and laughed.
"According to the fool's opinion, Xue Jingwen's intention is to lower the exercise, which is very reasonable."
As soon as Xue Zong heard this, he immediately laughed, but he didn't realize that his master, Sun Ce, was so dark that he was about to drip water, and his eyes were even more murderous. I only heard Xue Zong laugh.
"Hahaha! Zhuge Kongming is worthy of being a man of current affairs, and he must have the same heart with me. Cao Gong is powerful, and the world will be ruled by him sooner or later. In my opinion, if the two families of Sun and Liu fall under the command of Cao Gong, the world will be peaceful in less than three years! This is really the good luck of the people in the world!"
Hearing this, Lu Su was so angry that his face trembled and shouted to Zhuge Liang urgently.
"Kong Ming, you are a loyal and righteous man. How can you say this great rebellious word!"
Zhuge Liang has been secretly using his spare light to make a large number of Sun Ce. Seeing that Sun Ce was out of reach, he was about to attack. He was extremely happy and replied to Lu Su.
"As Xue Jingwen said, Cao Cao is powerful all over the world. There is no one in the world. Uncle Liu is the only one who doesn't know the current affairs and has repeatedly taught Kong Ming. Although the thief is powerful, he is unbearable. Kong Ming is a minister. How dare he disobey my lord's will, so he has to compete with Cao Thieves. Today, Jingzhou is full of enemies, and Cao Thieves sent troops to invade, and his survival is not guaranteed. If Cao Cao gets Jingzhou, the evil will rise again, and he will cover the sky with one hand. Xue Jingwen decided to surrender Cao. It can be said that he is prepared for a rainy day, protect his wife, and be rich and noble. The migration of the country, the fate, how can it be cherished! Wuhou Yiyi listened to it.
