Seeing Lu Xun, Zhang Zhao's brows furrowed slightly.

Lu Xun's reputation in Jiaozhou is now very bad.

Whenever anyone mentions him, it is a comment that betrays the Lord and seeks glory, so that the entire Lu family bears a notoriety because of him.

If Lu Xun's background was as simple as Fa Zheng Yizhou, his family would have been killed by Sun Quan a long time ago.

It's a pity that the Lu family has been in Jiangdong for many years, and the relationship between the old trees and roots has long been complicated, and it is really not a simple matter for Sun Quan to move them.

It is precisely because the Lu family has a strong foundation in Jiangdong that Lu Xun's betrayal did not bring a fatal blow to the family.

But Sun Quan has always been obsessed with this matter, so much so that all the Jiaozhou officials have no good impression of Lu Xun.

If it wasn't Zhang Zhao who came, but other short-tempered people, I am afraid that when I saw Lu Xun, I would have drawn my sword and stepped forward desperately.

In front of Zhang Zhao, Lu Xun bowed his hand: "Zhang Gong has worked hard all the way!" ”

"Bo Yan is hard!" Zhang Zhao arched his hand casually: "You are not by King Wei's side, why did you come here?" ”

"It's not for Zhang Gong." Lu Xun replied with a smile: "I heard that Gong Zhang is going to Chengdu, and the King of Wei is worried that something will go wrong on the road, so he specially ordered me to come to greet him." Zhang Gong is all the way, are you okay? ”

"It's not a special problem." Fa Zheng replied: "It's just that there are many levels along the way, which makes it annoying to walk." ”

"I know what Zhang Gong said, King Wei actually doesn't want to be so strict, it's just that Zhuge Liang fled to Nanban, and now Yizhou has not really been pacified, for the sake of the people of Yizhou, for the sake of the Bashu rivers and mountains, the lord has no choice but to do this." Lu Xun first gave Zhang Zhao an explanation of the checkpoint, and then asked him: "Zhang Gong came to see the lord this time, but does he really want to surrender to the lord?" ”

"Then can there be a fake?" Zhang Zhao said angrily: "I came with sincerity, just to see if King Wei has the sincerity to negotiate with me." ”

"I also believe in the sincerity of Zhang Gong, but whether my father-in-law is sincere or not, it is impossible to say." Lu Xun replied: "Gong Zhang saw the lord, so he was more stable. You and I used to be colleagues, and I don't want Zhang Gong to get into trouble. ”

Looking at Lu Xun suspiciously, Zhang Zhao frowned and asked, "I'm here to talk about peace, won't King Wei have any sincerity at all?" ”

"Of course, the lord can't be insincere." Lu Xun smiled, lowered his voice and said to Zhang Zhao: "It's just that Zhang Gong should know that the so-called weak country has no diplomacy. Now that Jiaozhou is in a dying state, as long as the lord orders the army to continue to advance, it won't be long before Jiaozhou falls into the hands of the lord. For Zhang Gong, peace talks are indeed necessary, but for the lord, peace talks are really unnecessary. If he wants to see you, it's just a personal favor! ”

Zhang Zhao looked stunned, he didn't expect Lu Xun to say such a thing to him.

It can be seen that Sun Wu of Jiaozhou, in the eyes of Da Wei, is no longer any trouble at all.

The Great Wei army that entered Jiaozhou, as long as it advanced a little further to reach Cangwu, Sun Quan would not have any chance of turning the tables.

What's more, it was not only Sima Yi's troops who entered Jiaozhou, in the south of Jiaozhou, the Great Wei Navy led by Guan Cheng also set off from Zhuya Prefecture and landed in the coastal area.

The Wei army attacked from both sides, and the Jiaozhou soldiers and horses did not have any ability to deal with it at all.

Breaking through Cangwu and capturing Sun Quan was just a matter of waiting a few more days for Cao Shuo.

"I also know that the Wei army is strong, but Jiaozhou is not completely empty." Zhang Zhao replied: "Once the soldiers of Jiaozhou work together, the two sides will definitely be devastated, and I don't know how many sons and daughters will die on the battlefield." ”

"It doesn't matter." Lu Xun grinned at him: "It has been many years since the Yellow Turban Rebellion started back then. How many people have died in the Central Plains over the years? The heroes fought against each other, and countless people died on the battlefield. The lord recuperated over the years, and the population under his rule increased exponentially. Our Great Wei has soldiers and horses, and the crusade against Jiaozhou can be said to be the last battle of the Great Wei to dominate the world. After this battle, the troubled times will end, and the soldiers who died in Jiaozhou will also go down in history. They died a deserved death and a glorious death. On the contrary, Jiaozhou will resist regardless of the misery of life, but it will leave a reputation for eternity. ”

"Infamy through the ages?" Zhang Zhao frowned: "The soldiers of Jiaozhou fought bravely to kill the enemy, just to keep their homeland, how could they be infamous through the ages?" ”

"Did Zhang Gong forget a very important thing?" Lu Xun said with a smile: "Qing history has always been written by the victors, and the Great Wei has won, and the history books are not recorded as much as they want." Scold Jiaozhou to the point of blood, who dares to correct your name? ”

Zhang Zhao can be said to be very aggrieved these days.

First of all, Sima Yi told him that if you want to be respected, you don't just have to respect others, but you have absolute strength to be looked up to.

Lu Xun told him at this time that the history of the Qing Dynasty is written by the victors, and no matter how tenacious the resistance of Jiaozhou is, in the end it will only leave an unsightly mark in the history books.

"I'm here this time to negotiate peace with King Wei." Zhang Zhao said: "Whether there will be another battle in Jiaozhou is all in the King of Wei, not in Jiaozhou." ”

"What Zhang Gong said is not true." Lu Xun shook his head and said: "I think there will be a war in Jiaozhou, it is all Sun Zhongmou, and it has nothing to do with my father-in-law." ”

Looking at Lu Xun, Zhang Zhao said: "I want to hear about it." ”

"Now the Great Wei is strong, and the Jiaozhou soldiers are few and the ordnance and grain and grass are insufficient." Lu Xun said: "In the same situation, if it is reversed, how will Sun Zhongmou choose? He was afraid that he would not give the envoy a chance to meet at all, and directly ordered the army to raze the enemy. The lord's willingness to see you is already his sincerity. If Zhang Gong puts forward more conditions, I am afraid that this battle will have to continue. ”

"Since it's a peace negotiation, you can't give any benefit to the state." Zhang Zhao's face became even more ugly: "If there is no benefit, why should we drop?" ”

"No why, just to survive in Jiaozhou." Lu Xun lowered his voice and said to Zhang Zhao: "Zhang Gong should have heard about the matter of Yizhou, Fa Xiao led the army to attack Yizhou, not only forced Liu Bei to die in Langzhong, but also beheaded all his family members. You must know that many of those family members are his direct relatives at all, and most of them are relatives of his harem concubines and concubines. sat down like this, and the lord didn't ask much, Zhang Gongzhi didn't know why? ”

Zhang Zhao didn't say anything, he was waiting for Lu Xun to continue.

"There is actually only one reason, the lord feels that it is not necessary." Lu Xun said with a smile: "This world is originally because I am strong and I am reasonable, strong enough, why do we need to talk to the weak about those truths that there is no need to talk about?"
