Zhuge Jin suddenly asked, Sun Ce really didn't know how to deal with it.

He hesitated for a moment: "Ziyu asked, I really don't know how to reply." I haven't thought about being a hero, but I don't want to be attached to Cao Cao and become his vassal from now on! ”

"Since the general is unwilling to be controlled by others and become a vassal of others, I think I can discuss with Lu Fengxian." Zhuge Jin said: "Cao Cao once led his troops to attack Xuzhou, and Lu Bu was almost killed by him in Xiapi. Speaking of which, he hated Cao Cao more than the general, so being the enemy of the general was nothing more than refusing to turn against Cao Cao. If he reached an alliance with the general, would he not have to worry about Cao Cao? ”

Having understood what he meant, Sun Ce still felt that he was a little taken for granted: "Although Lu Bu and I are both a little taboo about Cao Cao, the possibility of us reaching an alliance should not be too great." After all, there is a short distance between Jiangdong and Xuzhou. ”

"We get Lujiang, and Lu Bu gets Huainan, so aren't they connected to each other?" Zhuge Jun said: "Whether it is Xuzhou or Jiangdong, neither side can compete with Cao Cao. If the two were united, the situation would be very different. ”

Zhuge Jin continued: "What the general wants now is not the Central Plains, but to pacify Jingzhou and kill Liu Jingsheng, avenge the old general, and stabilize the Sun family." ”

What he said was exactly what Sun Ce was looking forward to the most.

Sun Ce pinched his chin and thought for a moment: "Who does Ziyu think is appropriate to negotiate with Lu Bu?" ”

"Of course I should go for the plan I offered." Zhuge Jin said: "If you are someone else, you may not know how to talk to Lu Bu. ”

Looking at the other people in the tent, Sun Ce asked, "What do you think?" ”

Zhang Zhao and several other aides did not agree with Zhuge Jin's strategy.

But they found that Sun Ce seemed to be very interested in Zhuge Jin's proposal.

No one wanted to disturb Sun Ce's interest.

Anyway, Zhuge Jin went to see Lu Bu, which would not have any impact on the entire battle situation, and it would not be a big deal to let him go.

Everyone did not object, and Sun Ce turned his gaze back to Zhuge Jin's face: "Ziyu went to Lu Bu's army, you have to be careful when you speak." ”

Zhuge Jin got up and said, "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun, I'll go and ask to see Lu Bu." ”

The army was stationed, and Lu Bu took Zhao Yun and Chen to inspect the military camp.

A guard came to report: "Qi Yu Wen, Sun Ce sent Zhuge Jin to ask for a meeting." ”

Zhuge Jin asked to see him, but Lu Bu expected that he would come to persuade him to retreat, so he instructed the guard: "Take him to the Shuai tent to see me." ”

After the guards left, Lu Bu asked Zhao Yun and Chen Dao, "What do you think Zhuge Jin came to see me, what purpose do you think Zhuge Jin has?" ”

"What else could he have come to see Wen Hou for?" Zhao Yun replied: "It's nothing more than asking Wen Hou to withdraw his troops." ”

"If it's somewhere else, it's nothing if I withdraw my troops." Lu Bu smiled: "But Huainan and Lujiang, I didn't plan to hand them over to Sun Ce." I'm afraid he's going to go for nothing this time. ”

"Could it be that Sun Ce was scared by Wen Hou?" Chen Zhi asked Lu Bu: "He suddenly sent Zhuge Jin over, could it be that he thought that he was not an opponent of our army and took the initiative to show goodwill?" ”

"He's not going to be scared by me." Lu Bu said: "The people in Jiangdong are frightened, and it is still possible. You two go back to the tent with me and see what Zhuge Jin has to say. ”

Lu Bu took Zhao Yun and Chen to return to the tent, and Zhuge Jin was already waiting outside the tent.

Seeing him come back, Zhuge Jin hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "I've seen Wen Hou." ”

"Brother Ziyu is not with Sun Bofu, what are you doing here?" Lu Bu walked into the handsome tent and asked Zhuge Jin, who followed up.

"I came to see Wen Hou because I was entrusted by Bo Fu." Zhuge Jin said: "Bo Fu thinks that there is no place in Jiangdong and Xuzhou that can compete with Cao Cao, so he specially sent me to sign an offensive and defensive alliance with Wen Hou. ”

"Offensive and defensive alliances?" Lu Bu said with a smile: "Don't Bo Fu know that I sent troops this time for Cao Gong?" ”

"If it was for Cao Cao, how could Zhang Wenyuan suddenly take Shouchun?" Zhuge Jin asked rhetorically.

Lu Bu laughed when he heard this: "Wenyuan didn't take Shouchun, he just went into the city to assist in defense. Brother Ziyu said this, but he was suspected of provoking me and Cao Gong. ”

"Do you need someone else to stir up trouble between Wen Hou and Cao Cao?" Zhuge Jin shook his head: "Don't Wen Hou know that Cao Cao doesn't move you now, just because there are too many strong enemies around." Especially after the Yuan family in Hebei defeated Gongsun Zhan, it was possible to send troops to cross the Yellow River at any time. He doesn't fight Wenhou, it's not that he really doesn't want to fight, but he can't! ”

Staring at Zhuge Jin, Lu Bu smiled: "How does Bo Fu plan to make an offensive and defensive alliance with me?" ”

"It's simple." Zhuge Jin said: "This place is called Yijing, which belongs to the junction of the Lujiang River and Huainan. Bofu and Wenhou are not as good as dividing the righteous well, Wenhou is in the north, and Bofu is in the south. Once Cao Cao sent troops to attack one of them, the other side should immediately rush to help. Wen Hou commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and Bofu also owned several counties in Jiangdong. The two families work together, will they still be afraid of Cao Cao? ”

"Divide the righteous well." Lu Bu shook his head: "What I want is not only Huainan, I also want the entire Lujiang." If Bo Fu can agree to this condition, the rest can be discussed. ”

"The Lujiang River is not only adjacent to Jiangdong, but also borders Jingzhou." Zhuge Jin said: "Marquis Wen occupies this place, the north has to deal with Cao Cao, and the south has to deal with Liu Biao. With the military strength of Wenhou, I don't know if I can deal with it? ”

"It's as if Bo Fu occupies Lujiang and doesn't need to deal with this." Lu Bu replied: "You also need to deal with these, I wonder if Bo Fu is ready?" ”

Stunned by his question, Zhuge Jin then smiled and said: "Wen Hou may not have noticed that although he has to face a strong enemy in guarding the Lujiang River, Jiangdong is on the edge of the Lujiang River. ”

"Of course I noticed." Lu Bu said: "Lujiang is adjacent to Jiangdong and not far from Huainan. If a strong enemy comes, I can send troops from Xuzhou and come to Lujiang through Huainan. Does Ziyu think that I am not as good as Bofu in guarding the Lujiang River? ”

"Of course, after all, Wenhou is too far away from Lujiang." Zhuge Jin replied without hesitation.

The corners of Lu Bu's mouth pulled up a smile: "Since Ziyu thinks so, we have nothing to say." Please go back and tell Bo Fu that I am going to settle in Lujiang. He's either going to go or he's going to fight me. The choice is all up to me, not me. ”

"Bo Fu is already full of sincerity, why does Wen Hou not give an inch?" The conditions put forward by Lu Bu were absolutely unacceptable to Sun Ce, and Zhuge Jin asked, "Could it be that Marquis Wen really wants to be an enemy of Jiangdong to the end?" ”

"It's not that I want to be an enemy of Jiangdong, it's that Jiangdong doesn't give me the sincerity to negotiate peace." Lu Bu flicked his arm, turned around and shouted, "Send off!" ”

Chen Zhi and Zhao Yun then stepped forward.

Zhao Yun said: "Mr. Zhuge , please!" ”

Failing to achieve the goal of the peace talks, Zhuge Jin arched his hand to Lu Bu in annoyance, turned around and walked out of the tent.
