Chapter 387: Cutting Wu Xuanwen
Chapter 387
Although Sun Quan felt guilty in his heart, for the sake of face, he did not come to apologize in person, but only asked Lu Meng to go to invite Zhang Zhao instead of himself. Zhang Zhao originally thought that after such a fuss, Sun Quan would postpone his claim to be king. In this way, Zhang Zhao had time to persuade Lu Su to persuade Sun Quan with him. When Zhang Zhao saw Lü Meng coming, he hoped that Lü Meng would persuade Sun Quan. Lu Meng smiled helplessly. In Jiangdong, in terms of seniority, it is not his turn to Lu Meng. In terms of strategists, Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, and Gu Yong...... When it was the turn of the marching army to fight, Huang Gai and Cheng Pu were much older than Lu Meng.
"Sir, it's not that you don't know the temper of the lord, and the gentleman can't convince the lord yet. If you insist on persuasion, you are not afraid that it will make the lord even more angry! Dream came today to be entrusted by the lord, and after tomorrow I will lead the army to join the governor. Therefore, please also preside over the ceremony regardless of the previous suspicions......"
"Don't go, resolutely don't go! The shaft is not enough and conspiracy! In terms of weight, Lu Su is not in the capital, and Zhang Zhao is undoubtedly the most qualified to preside over the ceremony of sealing the king for Sun Quan. However, this Zhang Zhao is angry, and it is absolutely impossible to preside over the ceremony for Sun Quan. However, his persistence did not stop Sun Quan.
Fortunately, Lu Meng did not learn Zhang Zhao's words to Sun Quan in the end, otherwise according to Sun Quan's character, he might have set fire to Zhang Zhao's mansion. The battle on the front line was tense, and Lü Meng did not dare to stay and hurriedly went to Chaisang with his soldiers and horses. On the second day, Sun Quan ordered Gu Yong to fully preside over the ceremony of becoming the king, and informed the world of this! To counter Liu Cong's edict!
What made Sun Quan depressed was that Zhang Zhao did not appear at the ceremony to seal the king in the end, not only that, but I heard that Zhang Zhao was in pain that day, and shouted loudly about Sun Ce's name, which means that the old minister is incompetent and cannot stop the lord Hu Lai, and the old minister is guilty. The lord is so messing around, Jiangdong is in danger!
Sun Quan was furious when he heard this, and he didn't care about anything, didn't you go out? He sent someone to light a fire at the door of Zhang Zhao's mansion! Zhang Zhao was moved by the slightest part, sitting in the study and not going out, scared the chickens and dogs up and down Zhang's mansion, and finally Gu Yong and others couldn't stand it, and persuaded each other hard, Sun Quan also knew that Zhang Zhao was an old stubborn afraid that he would rather be burned to death by the fire than come out to see him, so he had to order someone to extinguish the fire and return to the palace angrily!
When the news of Sun Quan's claim to be the king reached Xiangyang, Liu Cong was also very shocked, originally thinking that Sun Quan would definitely be forced to jump off the wall by himself, so that he would be in chaos. I didn't expect Sun Quan to give himself such a big handle! Calling the king self-reliant? Even what Cao Cao didn't dare to do at this stage, he Sun Quan actually did it! Xun Yu, Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng and others heard that Sun Quan was king in Wu County, and they came to congratulate Liu Cong.
"Lord, this Sun Quan has gone against the sky, and the people's hearts have been lost, and this crusade will definitely be completed overnight......"
"Lord, when the text is announced to the world, the evil deeds of the Sun family are vigorously raised, and then the righteous teacher is peaceful......"
"Lord, when the letter informs Cao Cao that our army is rebellious, he can't risk the disapproval of the world......"
Surprise followed surprise, Sun Quan's actions finally made Liu Cong not have to wait any longer, and Liu Ba, who was recruited back to Xiangyang by Liu Cong from Duliang County, began to work heavily. This time, Liu Cong gave him the task of drafting a document on the crusade against Jiangdong Sun Quan! Liu Ba rushed to work overnight, which lasted a day, and then handed it over to Liu Cong, who found Fa Zheng and Zhuge Liang and others to polish it, and then announced it to the world, and also sent a copy to Cao Cao.
Cao Cao received the text, it was funny, angry, and funny that Sun Quan actually became the king. It's good to be angry that Liu Cong has a great opportunity! He knew that this time Liu Cong would definitely occupy most of the territory even if he couldn't completely incorporate Yangzhou into the territory, and his army was in Guanzhong, and he couldn't reach Nanyang for a while, so he could only watch Liu Cong get bigger again!
And Sun Quan was so angry that he almost vomited blood and died. It turns out that Liu Ba's writing is not lost to Chen Lin at all. After reading the article, Sun Quan regretted a little bit that he didn't listen to what Zhang Zhao said! Although he thought about putting himself in a very disadvantageous position, he didn't expect Liu Cong to make such a fuss, and what worried Sun Quan the most was that the person who sent Xuchang to congratulate Cao Cao on his entry to the throne did not have news, which means that Cao Cao was also ready to watch the excitement, and even watch his own jokes!
In Sun Quan's original plan, if he and Cao Cao became kings successively, then Xiangyang, controlled by Liu Cong, would lose its role in commanding the world. Everyone is on an equal footing! But I didn't expect Cao Cao not to accept the move, but Liu Cong's text was a sharp sword hanging over Sun Quan's head! And Cao Cao seems to be planning to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight! Everything was pretty much as Zhang Zhao expected! Sun Quan began to know that ginger was still old and spicy.
Then the tea man went to ask Zhang Zhao to discuss countermeasures. Zhang Zhao still avoided it, as a last resort, Sun Quan personally went to stand at the gate of Zhang's mansion, one stop was a few hours, and the dialect, if Zhang Zhao didn't come out to meet, he wouldn't leave! Zhang Zhao can be angry, but he can't lose the courtesy of the monarch and minister, so he had to come out to meet him, and he was also very anxious after officially seeing Liu Cong's news!
The beginning of the article first takes the fall of the Qin Dynasty and the prosperity of the Han Dynasty as the starting point, listing Zhao Gao's rule, autocratic control of the political situation, the emperor himself as a prestige, and eventually led to the disaster of extermination, so far burdened with infamy, to the period after Lu, Lu Lu, Lu Chan dictatorship, unauthorized handling of political affairs, as well as palace affairs, subordinates bullying superiors, people all over the country feel cold, so Marquis Zhou Bo, Zhu Xuhou Liu Zhang, angry troops, rebuke rebellion, respect Liu Emperor, so the country can prosper, they also illuminate the annals of history, this is a model of meritorious service of ministers. Seeing this, Sun Quan thought it was a text against Cao Cao or Liu Cong!
Then the conversation changed and scolded Sun Quan for a bloody moment. Starting from Sun Jian, the leader of the Sun family, it is said that Sun Jian stole the jade seal, relied on the pseudo-emperor Yuan Shu, and repeatedly tried to seize Jingzhou, and finally ended up with a random arrow piercing his heart. His brother Sun Ce did not repent, and still followed the puppet emperor Yuan Shu, and attacked Jingzhou Mu and Zhennan General of the imperial court several times, and at the same time rampant Jiangdong, repeatedly expelled the imperial court officials, and plundered Jiangdong rampant in the township! caused the people's grievances to boil and the scholars to chill. Fortunately, the sky has eyes and took away this rebel early.
After Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, the imperial court gave him preferential treatment and canonized him as a general of the chariot and cavalry, but Sun did not repent, and went against the sky, and the imperial court added Sun Quan as a lieutenant in order to stabilize Jiangdong, but Sun was still not satisfied, and actually established himself as the king! Such an act against the sky, people and gods are angry, and they will be punished!
Then there is Prime Minister Liu Cong, who was busy pacifying the four seas and supporting the Han family, and did not have time to teach Sun Quan, thinking that he was tolerant of him, maybe he himself had some restraint, but Sun Quan's jackal ambition and harboring evil intentions actually wanted to murder Liu Shang, the pillar of the country, Yuzhang, who was too guarded by Liu Shang, isolated the Han Emperor, killed loyal and righteous people, and became a hero himself.
A few years ago, the prime minister went west to Shuzhong and had no time to look east, so Sun Quan took this opportunity to steal Jiaozhou. It was even more shameless to take advantage of the confrontation between Cao and Liu to seize Jingzhou, but fortunately, Prime Minister Cheng was like a god and had already taken precautions, so Sun Quan's attempt was not realized. Now he is stationed in Chaisang, using the mountain as a barrier, intending to block the cart with the power of a praying mantis! Prime Minister Liu Cong was entrusted by the Emperor of the Han Dynasty to shock the universe, and millions of soldiers will sweep Jiangdong and produce thieves for the country! This is the time when loyal ministers are smeared with their hearts and minds, and the opportunity for martyrs to make meritorious contributions, how can the heroes of the world not grasp it!
In short, it is not difficult to see that in fact, the text is a thing that plays with words. In other words, Sun Quan's position may be to praise merit and virtue, but when it comes to Liu Cong's side, Sun Jian's backer Yuan Shu is a pseudo-emperor! Sun Jian's connection with the puppet emperor was already unknown, and then Sun Ce continued to attack the imperial court officials, and even wanted to seize Jingzhou in order to commit rebellion. And Sun Quan's edict is even more rebellious! Everybody gets it! And Liu Cong is the embodiment of justice and the guardian of the imperial road! Doing the right thing for heaven and crusading against traitors for the imperial court, all these are Liu Cong's unshirkable responsibilities!
With such a document, even Cao Cao wanted to run to Jiangdongsheng and split Sun Quan immediately after reading it. What did the three members of the Sun family do to the Han Dynasty and the people of the world? stealing jade seals, casting pseudo-emperors, driving officials, robbing wealthy families...... Now he is the king of himself! This made Cao Cao, a person who was ready to usurp the Han Dynasty, look down on it, not to mention the ordinary scholars and people in the world!
After reading this article, Liu Cong was also very satisfied, and I have to say that Liu Ba's scolding skills are becoming more and more mature, and he scolded Liu Bei for being invincible and self-dissolving when he dealt with Liu Bei. Liu Cong couldn't imagine what Sun Quan's expression would be after receiving this message, but it was certain that it would greatly boost the morale of the Jingzhou soldiers and deal a great blow to the Jiangdong group, and the people of Jiangdong must have resented Sun Quan in their hearts when they heard that they had brought war because of Sun Quan's success. This is the effect that Liu Cong hopes to achieve!
After the release of the text, Liu Cong ordered the army to be pulled out, and the naval army, with Gan Ning as the vanguard and Xu Shu as the military division, led 30,000 troops, and 300 warships slaughtered to Chaisang. Liu Cong led Guan Yu, Jiang Qin, Yu Ban, Fa Zheng and others with 50,000 troops to follow closely, while Liu Pan, Zhang Jaw, and Zhang Song set out from Changsha and led 30,000 infantry to Nanchang! A total of 110,000 soldiers on land and water, 50,000 people were raised, and it was known as 500,000 troops to the outside world! Xun Yu, Zhuge Liang, and Huang Zhong guarded Xiangyang, and Huang Zu succeeded Guan Yu to guard Zhangling, while none of Wenpin's subordinate soldiers moved. Yizhou Wei Yan, Zhang Ren and others are even more on standby!
After two years of preparation, the number of soldiers under Liu Cong's command surged. Especially in terms of the navy, since Liu Cong led the troops to rescue Jiangxia and received Huang Zu outside Shaxian City, he rarely fought a battle. A few years ago, Liu Cong entered Sichuan, and the navy did not lose several books. In other words, since Liu Cong agreed to establish a naval army in Jiangling, Gan Ning has trained a naval army for eight years! This time, it almost poured out of the nest, and the purpose was to sweep away Jiangdong!
Among the famous generals under Liu Cong's command, except for Gan Ning and Jiang Qin, Guan Yu's navy is relatively good, so Liu Cong asked Guan Yu to arrive in Wuchang from Zhangling before. It's a bit risky though. But Liu Cong gambled that Cao Cao couldn't win Hanzhong in a short time! And there is still a year to go before the three-year peace covenant! Although Wancheng Sima Yi and Xinye Wenpin confronted each other. However, the Cao army in Runan is relatively weak, and Zhangling is not far from Xiangyang, although it can be reinforced!
