Chapter 502: Zhang Zhao's sigh
Due to the arrival of Liu He, Liu Bei not only did not occupy the entire Yizhou, including Hanzhong, but also did not claim the title of emperor of Shu Han, but died of illness twenty years ahead of schedule.
When the news of Liu Bei's death came, not only in the northern part of Yizhou, but also in the whole world.
When Cao Cao of Xu Du heard the news, he first laughed three times and cried three times, which made Cheng Yu beside him very puzzled and hurriedly asked the reason.
I saw Cao Cao said: "Liu Xuande started in the end of the micro, this is a great hero in this world, before Liu He Xiaoer did not rise, I call myself in the world, if you talk about heroes, only Liu Xuande and Cao'er, and then Liu Bei's development is really rapid, even I can't help but be shocked, he with thousands of defeated soldiers, actually occupied the three counties of Jingnan, the entire Jiaozhou and Yizhou, ruled a vast thousands of miles, across the three states, under the command of nearly 300,000 capable soldiers, but he was too confident, and tried to compete with Liu He with his own strength, Especially ignoring Sun Quan's sneak attack from behind, and finally defeated in Jingzhou, at this time Liu Bei actually lost his mind, and Sun Quan competed on the river, and was finally burned clean by Zhou Yu, and then Liu Bei finally realized that Liu He Xiao'er could not compete with him, and compromised with Liu He, so as to obtain temporary stability, but how narrow is his qi? After Liu He and Sun Quan got married, Liu Bei was depressed and died, Liu Bei did not measure his strength, first tried to challenge Liu He with his own strength, and then led the army to compete with Sun Quan on the river, failure is inevitable, so I laughed. ”
Cheng Yu nodded when he heard this, but then asked, "But why did the lord cry three times?" ”
I saw Cao Cao lamenting: "Not for him, just for the rabbit to die and the fox to be sad." Where is my current situation better than Liu Bei? Although it seems that as the prime minister of the Han Dynasty, he coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, but who can I order? Not only that, but also under Liu He's wings, I know that the reason why Liu He did not lead the army to attack my Xuzhou is only because he doesn't want the Son of Heaven, but I can't help it, because if there is no Son of Heaven, I will immediately fall into the encirclement and suppression of Liu He and Sun Quan's army, with my land of two states, tens of thousands of remnants, how can I fight against it? Therefore, although I am living now, I am only barely supporting, and any ambition and enterprising are just self-deception. ”
Cheng Yu listened to Cao Cao's words, and was silent for a moment, sighing secretly in his heart for a moment, and suddenly said after a while: "Didn't Sima Zhongda mention the strategy of attacking the Japanese Kingdom?" Why don't you give it a try? Maybe then we'll be able to open up a new world. ”
Cao Cao smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Zhongde, I am now in my fifties, and I have long lost my enterprising spirit, so how much time will it take for me to establish a foundation in a wild land?" How much time do I have to wait? What's more, I, Cao Cao, as a subject of the Han Dynasty, was born and grew up in Si, and I am used to seeing the prosperity and wealth of the Han Dynasty, and I am used to seeing the crown and grace, and I am dressed broadly, how can I live with the ignorant barbarians? Besides, I have lived on land since I was a child, but I don't want to go to the sea to experience the wind and waves, and the Son of Heaven absolutely does not want to, I just invite the Son of Heaven to Xuzhou, after all, this is the land of Longxing of the Han Dynasty, but if I take the Son of Heaven to the overseas wilderness, I will definitely be attacked by the unanimous crusade of the world's heroes, even if it is myself, I will be uneasy. ”
Cheng Yu suddenly sighed when he heard this, knowing that Cao Cao was reasonable, he stopped talking, arched his hand to Cao Cao, and retreated silently.
After this, Cao Cao was even more addicted to wine, but he didn't expect that there was a wrong move, his efforts in the past few months were not in vain, if the concubine in the room was pregnant, he gave birth to twenty sons, but Cao Cao's body also collapsed quickly, especially the torture of head wind, which made him feel painful every day, and he hated to die.
In Jiangdong, Sun Quan was very happy when he heard the news of Liu Bei's death, in his opinion, Liu Bei died, and Yizhou was his, so he ordered Zhou Yu to reorganize his troops and prepare to attack Yizhou, so as to annex Liu Bei's forces in one fell swoop.
However, at this time, Sun Quan heard the news that Liu He would defend Liu Bei as the Duke of Shu Zhaolie, and ensure that Liu Bei's son Liu Chan succeeded him as the general of Yizhou, Shu and Hussar, and promised that the covenant with Yizhou would continue to be valid.
"What? What the hell is my sister-in-law going to do? I don't want such a good opportunity to annex Liu Bei's strength, if you miss this opportunity, I really don't know if there will be any in the future? ”
After Sun Quan heard the news, he couldn't help but complain in a deep voice.
At this time, I saw Changshi Zhang Zhao and said: "Maybe this is because Duke Qin doesn't want the lord to take the opportunity to develop and grow, and at the same time wants to sell well in Yizhou City, right?" ”
Sun Quan was stunned when he heard this, thought carefully for a moment, and then nodded and sighed: "Zibu, what you said should be right, it seems that my sister-in-law is really not the same heart as me, he was just using me to deal with Liu Bei, and now that Liu Bei is dead, it is estimated that he will take the opportunity to recover those civil and military generals in Yizhou next, once he gets the northern part of Yizhou, it is estimated that the next step will be me, this kid is really hateful, I knew it was so, I didn't listen to his mercy at the beginning." ”
I saw Zhang Zhao suddenly speak: "Actually, I don't know if the lord has thought about a possibility, when the Duke of Qin really unifies the northern part of Yizhou and sweeps away Xuzhou, if the lord surrenders to the east of the river, he will definitely be treated well by the Duke of Qin in the future, coupled with the brother-sister relationship between the lord and Miss Shangxiang, the status in the future will never be ......lower than the current one."
Sun Quan heard this, but his face was gloomy, and he said coldly to this Zhang Zhao: "I now have millions of people in the south of the Yangtze River, and Liu He divides the river and governs the river, when it comes to the vast territory, it may not be worse than Liu He, although Liu He is strong now, but there are still Cao Cao and Liu Chan in Jiangbei, and when he pacifies Cao Cao and Liu Chan, my strength is enough to protect myself, in this case, why should I surrender Liu He?" Zibu, don't talk about this argument in the future! I'm a little tired, you go down first. ”
After finishing speaking, Sun Quan didn't look at Zhang Zhao anymore, but just played with the military book by himself.
"Alas, my kind words were originally for you, but I didn't expect you to be so ignorant of current affairs, you have been recuperating in the past few years, why not Duke Qin? His land is wider than yours, his talents are more numerous, his population is far better, and the prosperity of agriculture and commerce is far beyond your comparison. Is it just relying on the Yangtze River natural insurance? Hehe, don't you know, the time is not as good as the location, the location is not as good as the people, just a Yangtze River moat, it is simply impossible to stop the determination of the other side to attack, I believe that it will not be long before the war in the Jiangnan region will break out again, and it is only the people who suffer. ”
Zhang Zhao lamented in his heart that he was a good word, but the other party abandoned it, but he listened to Zhou Yu's two parts of the world, and he actually did not have the mind and ability to keep this foundation, which is actually the saddest thing.
