Cao Shuo decided to personally lead his army to defeat the Nanban.

Sima Yi, who he had earlier ordered to lead his troops to Jiaozhou, was also on his way to Jiaozhou.

In addition to Sima Yi, Cao Shuo also ordered the South China Sea Navy to send troops and horses to land, attack the north and south with the army, and attack Jiaozhou.

Jiaozhou Sun family.

Knowing that Sima Yi's army was coming, Sun Quan was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

He walked back and forth, and the ministers present lowered their heads one by one and did not dare to look at him more.

"Apart from Sima Yi, who else is here?" Sun Quan stopped and asked everyone.

"Returning to Your Majesty." Zhang Zhao came out of the ranks and said to Sun Quan: "The vanguard of the enemy army is the old Jiang Lu Fengxian, and there are also Zhao Zilong, Xu Gongming, Wei Wenchang and others in Sima Yi's army, which can be said to be fierce generals......

"In addition, Guan Cheng also led the navy to land in the south." Lu Su also came out and said: "The South China Sea Navy has been operating for many years, and in terms of strength, there is no need for Sima Yi to come, they can also fight Jiaozhou!" ”

Sun Quan sat down dejectedly.

He closed his eyes and said with a depressed face: "Yizhou has been broken, Liu Xuande is also dead, such as today, there is no one who has joined Cao Shuo, only our Jiaozhou Sun family." With Jiaozhou, how can I stop Cao Zirong ......?"

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Zhao said: "Miss once married Cao Zirong, and he also has an in-law with the Sun family, as long as Your Majesty is willing to give up Jiaozhou, maybe he will be willing to give Your Majesty a way to live." ”

Sun Quan closed his eyes dejectedly and did not say a word.

When the Sun family abandoned Jiangdong and retreated to Jiaozhou, their strength was already not as good as before.

If Cao Shuo had taken advantage of the victory to pursue back then, the Sun family in Jiaozhou would have ceased to exist a long time ago.

With a fierce general and a wise man, Sun Quan couldn't figure out what was the difference between him and Cao Shuo.

Why did Cao Shuo win many battles, expand his territory one after another, and now he is about to unify the Central Plains.

But he first lost Jiangdong and retreated to Jiaozhou, and now he has to consider surrendering to Cao Shuo in exchange for a chance to live?

After Zhang Zhao proposed, everyone present was silent.

Including Zhou Yu and Lu Su, who fought hard before the first battle in Chibi, they didn't have any words.

After a long time, Sun Quan raised his head and looked at everyone: "You all think I should surrender to Cao Zirong?" ”

The crowd remained silent.

After years of fighting Cao Shuo, they barely won a decent victory.

The army led by Sima Yi arrived, and with the remaining soldiers and horses in Jiaozhou, it was impossible to resist at all.

Everyone thinks that the Sun family in Jiaozhou is finished, and even if Sun Quan decides to send troops to meet the battle, no one dares to lead troops to go there anymore.

Knowing that he will be defeated, and then sending troops to meet it, it is stupid!

Zhou Yu and the others didn't say anything, but one person stood up.

He said to Sun Quan: "Your Majesty, Sima Yi is not Cao Zirong after all. Now that Cao Zirong is still in Yizhou, he has no heart to take care of Jiaozhou, and the last general is willing to lead the troops to meet the battle and make a last fight for His Majesty! ”

Although this person is asking for war, his words are not very good.

Sun Quan raised his head and looked at him, revealing a wry smile: "Ziming has already understood his intentions, but what can he do if he defeats Sima Yi?" In the south, Dong Cheng's navy is landing, and in the west, Cao Zirong is looking at each other from afar. Once Sima Yi is defeated, Cao Zirong will come soon. When he arrives, will Jiaozhou still be able to keep it? ”

It was none other than the famous Jiangdong general Lu Meng.

Lü Meng's willingness to lead troops to meet Sima Yi was not because he was sure of victory, but because he was ready to die.

When Sun Quan said this, Lu Meng didn't know what to say.

After losing Jiangdong, Sun Quan reluctantly became emperor, which also conformed to the general trend.

The Han family has died out, and the world has long been replaced by a time of change, except for Cao Shuo, who has not yet been crowned emperor, other heroes have long been on the throne.

Shu Han, located in Yizhou, was pushed to death by the Wei army led by Fa Zheng.

Liu Bei, the emperor of Shu Han, fell ill and died, and Liu Bei's family members were also killed by Fazheng, so it can be said that Liu Bei's branch has been completely extinct.

Now there is only Sun Quan who still retains the title of emperor.

But he, the emperor, couldn't give an edict to Cao Shuo, who had not yet been called the emperor.

The army under Cao Shuo was divided into two routes, north and south, and advanced to Jiaozhou, and there were only two choices in front of Sun Quan.

First, he gave up Jiaozhou, gave up the title of emperor, and bowed to Cao Shuo from now on. But in this way, his fate will be completely handed over to Cao Shuo, as long as Cao Shuo is happy, he can take his head away at any time.

Another option is for Sun Quan to lead the soldiers and horses of Jiaozhou to resist Cao Shuo to the end. In the current situation, there is no point in resisting at all.

If the fight continues, it will only be sooner or later that Jiaozhou will fall, and once Sun Quan is captured, with Cao Shuo's character, he will never leave him, who used to be the emperor!

"Your Majesty!" Lu Meng retreated to the side, and Zhang Zhao saw that Sun Quan was no longer talking, and stepped forward again: "Since we know that we are not opponents, if we continue to fight, it is nothing more than asking for our own death." It's better to send someone to see what Cao Zirong means, if he is willing to give His Majesty a way to live, it is not impossible to sacrifice Jiaozhou. ”

"Cao Zirong's reputation outside is not bad, but you should know that he only treats those who conform to him with kindness, and he never treats those who are enemies of him." Sun Quan said: "Since the day I proclaimed the emperor and established the country as Wu, it has been impossible to live anymore......"

"What Your Majesty said is indeed true, but there is one point that I don't see too clearly." Zhang Zhao said: "Cao Zirong has indeed killed a lot of people over the years, but he did not kill those who surrendered to him, but refused to surrender and fought him to the end. Miss has been married to Cao Zirong for many years, and His Majesty is also his brother-in-law. As long as he is willing to sacrifice Jiaozhou, with his temperament, he should not treat His Majesty like this. ”

"Are you sure he won't do anything to me?" Sun Quan raised his head and stared at Zhang Zhao and asked him.

"As long as Your Majesty is willing to contact him, I am willing to go to Yizhou." Zhang Zhao said: "Before that, I will go to see Sima Yi first and ask him not to send troops to attack for the time being, if Cao Zirong really refuses to give His Majesty a way to live." It's not too late for us to fight him to the death! ”

Subconsciously cast his eyes on the faces of Zhou Yu and the others, Sun Quan didn't see any dissuasion on their faces, so he had to sigh and say: "Since Ziming thinks this is okay, then follow your wishes!" ”

When Sun Quan responded, his tone showed helplessness.

With his approval, Zhang Zhao said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I will go to see Sima Yi, and after stabilizing Sima Yi, I will go to Yizhou to ask Cao Zirong for peace." ”

When it came to surrendering to Cao Shuo, Zhang Zhao did not use the word praying for surrender, but used the word "please peace".

He also took into account Sun Quan's face.

Throwing away the family business that Sun Ce had fought back then, and having to sacrifice Jiaozhou, the Sun family was completely lost in the hands of Sun Quan. 2k reading web
