Chapter 483: Zhou Yu's Clever Plan
For Zhuge Jin's proposal, Sun Quan was still a little moved at first, but when he thought that if he formed an alliance with Liu Bei, he estimated that he would have to return at least two of the six counties in the south of Yizhou that he had finally captured to Liu Bei, and in this way, Sun Quan would not be able to support Liu Zhang to fight against Liu Bei, and then thinking about Guan Yu's hatred and contempt for himself, Sun Quan decisively denied this.
So Sun Quan said to Zhuge Jin: "Ziyu, you have also seen the current situation, there is no possibility of reconciliation between our army and the Shu army, not to mention that Liu Bei ordered someone to assassinate Buzi Mountain, just say that I occupy the six counties in the south of Yizhou, Liu Bei will always think about taking it back, not to mention that our army has repeatedly sneak attacked, and now Liu Bei will not believe us at all, so, please forgive me for the alliance with the Shu army, it is difficult for me to obey my fate, our army and the Shu army are friends and enemies, I know what you are worried about, but there is no need to be afraid, Even if our army does not withdraw its troops, Liu He can't do anything to me, our army now occupies half of the south of the Yangtze River, and is good at water warfare, and is not afraid of Liu He's advance at all, the biggest problem is just because our army has just occupied the six southern counties of Yizhou, and it has not yet completely stabilized, as long as I am given another five years, I can completely compete with Liu He. ”
"But what do we do now? Could it be that he will give in to Liu He again? Lord, the previous concessions have made the officers and soldiers of our army afraid of Liu He, and if this goes on for a long time, as long as we encounter Liu He's army in the future, I am afraid that we will retreat. Zhuge Jin shook his head when he heard this, and said with some bitterness.
"Alas, that's also called helplessness, just endure this time, for the sake of our future." In desperation, Sun Quan ordered Zhou Yu and Tai Shi Ci to stop the attack, and ordered Zhou Yu to lead the army to garrison Linjiang, Tai Shi Ci to garrison Jianning, Cheng Pu to garrison Jiangling, and the main army to withdraw to Wu County.
"What? How so? Liu He Xiao'er, do you really have such a big face, and just let the lord order a retreat with just one sentence? I can't swallow that. ”
Hearing that Liu Bei was attached to Liu He, and Sun Quan ordered the withdrawal of the army, Zhou Yu suddenly felt incredible, and after thinking about it in the middle of the night, he finally came up with a clever plan, and went to Wu County by boat early the next morning to see Sun Quan.
Although he was from the upper reaches of the river to the lower reaches of the river, and then took a fast horse after going ashore at Moling, Zhou Yu still traveled for five days to arrive at Wu County in Wu County and met Sun Quan.
"Huh? Gongjin, why are you back? Seeing that Zhou Yu came back suddenly, Sun Quan was a little strange and hurriedly asked.
I saw Zhou Yu arch his hand and said: "Lord, the last general came back to propose a tribute to the lord." ”
"What? You don't want to do it anymore? This, how can this be done? Gong Jin, you are now a pillar of my Jiangdong Army, without you, it is really hard to imagine how quickly our army will collapse? Besides, my brother entrusted me to you at the beginning, if you left like this, would you have been able to live up to my brother's hard work back then? When Sun Quan heard Zhou Yu's words, he was suddenly startled, and even his complexion changed, and he persuaded Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu sighed when he heard this, and said slowly: "It's not that the last general wants to leave the lord, it's really pointless if he doesn't leave, because the lord is so afraid of that Liu He, he just proposed that Liu Bei belong to him, and we don't dare to do anything to Liu Bei again, so wouldn't it be so that everyone in the world knows that the lord is afraid of Liu He?" In this case, no matter whether Yu is in Jiangdong or not, he can't avoid the demise of my Jiangdong, in this case, why should Yu know that he can't do it and force it? ”
Sun Quan smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Gongjin came to Wu County, and it was really for this, but do you know my hardships?" Our army and the Shu army have been in confrontation for nearly two years, and the grain and grass are almost exhausted, not to mention that the other party is in danger of the river, and our army wants to attack the past, but it is impossible to achieve it in the short term. ”
"Although the lord's idea is correct, but the lord is so weak, how does this make the soldiers think? If we encounter Liu He's army on the battlefield in the future, will our soldiers still have the courage to fight against it? Zhou Yu shook his head and said with a dissatisfied expression.
"But what's the solution? Our army is short of food and grass, the soldiers are tired, if you refuse to withdraw at this time, Liu He just used this as an excuse to lead the army to conquer our army, and then the Shu army will inevitably cooperate, under the attack of both sides, I am afraid that not only the six counties of Yizhou that we have worked hard for many years to occupy cannot be kept, but even this Jiangdong land is difficult to preserve, I can't help it, Gong Jin, I am also a dignified prince, occupying half of the south of the country, how can I be willing to bow to Liu He Xiao'er? ”
When Sun Quan said this, he let out a long sigh, and he was very unwilling in his heart.
I saw Zhou Yu say: "Yu has a plan, I don't know if the lord is willing to carry it out?" Once this plan is successful, the custodian will make Liu He die, so that not only Shuzhong, but even Guanzhong may become the owner's bag. ”
"What? Want to kill Liu He? Gong Jin, it's not me talking about you, this Liu He is surrounded by guards, not to mention, he alone is the most heroic and warlike figure in the world, even Lu Bu is not his opponent, it is not easy for us to kill him. ”
"Hehe, Duke Zhou doesn't have to worry, no matter how brave Liu He is, if he is alone, even if he takes a step back, even if he has a thousand guards by his side, if he arrives in my Jiangdong, how can he be the opponent of tens of thousands of elites in my Jiangdong? At that time, no matter how heroic he was, he would definitely die in the end. Zhou Yu listened to Sun Quan's words, but he didn't think so, and said with a faint smile.
"You, what did you say? Let Liu He come to my Jiangdong? Gong Jin, you're not joking, are you? How could Liu He come here? Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu in disbelief, not knowing what kind of medicine was being sold in the other party's gourd.
saw Zhou Yu nodding and smiled: "Everything is not impossible, as long as we are willing to use our brains to find a way." ”
"Oh? I don't know what Gongjin's plan is? Speak up and listen. Seeing that Zhou Yu looked confident, Sun Quan was also full of expectations, and said to Zhou Yu.
But saw Zhou Yu said: "It's not difficult to say this, as we all know, Liu He's biggest feature is that he is greedy for flowers and lustful, and there are groups of concubines around him, but he is still searching for beautiful women. The lord only needs to say that he is willing to marry Shangxiang's sister to him as a concubine, I believe that this guy will come happily, as long as he arrives in Jiangdong, with these elite soldiers and strong generals we have, are you still worried that he will not die? ”
