416 Sun Quan's countermeasures
As soon as Liu Zhang's arrival, Sun Quan already knew about it, but he actually couldn't understand why Liu Zhang came here. But with Liu Zhang's deployment of troops, the purpose is self-evident, and it seems that he will come to fight him. This made Sun Quan very panicked, why did he suddenly come to beat him without saying a word? He has only been in power for less than two years, and he suddenly faces such a terrifying Liu Zhang? Back then, his brother Sun Ce and Liu Zhang made a move, and they were simply beaten up. So much so that the plan to attack the south was basically bankrupt, and now it is still recuperating and waiting for an opportunity.
The opportunity did not come, but Liu Zhang waited for it. In a hurry, Sun Quan hurriedly summoned Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, and Cheng Pu, who were veterans, he just knew that Cao Cao in the north was very strong, and if he could, he was ready to ask Cao Cao for help. It seems that in the current situation, only Cao Cao can fight with Liu Zhang.
"Liu Zhang has already led troops to Chaisang, and according to the spies, Liu Zhang estimated that there were about 60,000 troops. At this point in time, did he actually come here and ignore the situation in the north? "Sun Quan is really angry, he has just taken the throne, and he is ready to make a big difference. But Liu Zhang led the troops directly, and a basin of cold water was poured from beginning to end.
Zhou Yu's appearance seemed to be more chic than before, and he stood on the lower side with a lofty spirit: "The lord Na Gan Ning has been training in Poyang Lake for a long time, just for this day." However, the river and the lake are not the same, and we must not let them come to Danyang County, otherwise we may not be their opponents. "In the first war two years ago, they were beaten by Liu Zhang. It's been so long, and Zhou Yu still remembers it vividly.
Sun Quan nodded and said, "Gong Jin has a strategy to retreat from the enemy?" Sun Quan still has to count on this governor entrusted by his brother, if he can't estimate that Sun Quan can only surrender.
Zhou Yu said calmly: "We are ambushed on the road, archers are placed on the top of the mountain, and the big ship shoots the opponent with a giant crossbow. As long as we don't fight on the road and on the ground anymore, Liu Zhang on the river is not our opponent. Of course, we also have to be careful that they come by land from Danyang County, but the roads there are far less rugged than the waterways, and when they arrive, I'm afraid there will be little combat power left, so we just need to set up an ambush on the waterway...... "Relying on natural hazards, we can still defend, especially when you are condescending." That's how Sun Jian died back then, and it was really useful to ambush him on the mountains on both sides of the river.
"Everything is in favor of Gongjin, this is a matter of our Jiangdong lineage." Sun Quan was also helpless.
Lu Su also came out below and said: "The lord's affairs still need two hands, we must not only prepare for defense, but also send Liu Zhang to see if there is any possibility of peace, and secondly, we must find Cao Cao for help." In Lu Su's view, blind defense is not necessarily good, and maybe the mission will still be effective.
Sun Quan nodded and said, "Cao Cao, I will send an envoy, and as for Liu Zhang, I will trouble Zijing to go." It is rumored that Liu Zhang likes money and beauties, if you can negotiate this, I would like you to consider it. As long as it's a money beauty, these are minor issues. Sun Quan had heard of Liu Zhang's greed for money and lust, but he had to pay something in this situation.
Lu Su arched his hand and said: "If Cao Cao sends troops best, this is the best strategy." ”
The meeting ended, but Sun Quan still felt unstable when he returned to the mansion. Then Liu Zhang is menacing, how can he eat and sleep? Sitting in the room, sighing, I only felt that my situation was a little difficult to deal with. Seriously, after his brother's death, all the pressure was on him. Cao Cao, who rose strongly, and Liu Zhang, who was close at hand.
It's not that he didn't look for a chance to see Yuzhang, but Gan Ning has been stationed in troops, and Chaisang's Huang Quan has both offensive and defensive talents. All this made it difficult for him to deal with, and he wanted to occupy Yuzhang and threaten Jiang Xia. But with that man's insistence, all these were floating clouds.
"Why hasn't my son eaten yet? Alas, sigh, do that daughter's behavior? Mrs. Wu walked in on crutches, she was actually not old, at least in Liu Zhang's opinion.
Sun Quan hurriedly got up and said, "Mother and child, this is going to eat..."He is very respectful of his mother, and his brother was once confused and was instructed by his mother.
Mrs. Wu sat down on the chair on the side: "My son is also right to be worried, that Liu Zhang is famous and famous, and he is a hero who occupies most of the Han Dynasty." Now that I have an idea about us, I'm afraid Cao Cao won't send troops. "Mrs. Wu, who has lived all her life, still has a vision.
"Mother, that Liu Zhang must be Cao Cao's great enemy, they have fought many times, why don't they send troops to help me?" Sun Quan felt that if he was occupied by Liu Zhang, then the entire south would belong to Liu Zhang. When the time comes, what will Cao Cao do?
Mrs. Wu sighed and said: "Fool, Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao, but he did not occupy the north for a long time, but fought with Liu Zhang in Yuzhou, which shows that Cao Cao has been restrained by Liu Zhang. Now that Liu Zhang dares to bring troops here, he must be sure that Cao Cao will not send troops to help us. Thinking about how powerful Cao Cao was, Yuan Shao's army of more than 500,000 was killed, but he was restrained by Liu Zhang. The old lady said that there was also a little sigh here.
The old lady felt that Liu Zhang's scary was not because of this, but because he was not confined to form. That Liu Biao is his clansman, then Liu Zhang said that he would fight, and during the Guandu War, Liu Zhang resold grain, grass and ordnance, and he vigorously advocated the business of Jia. If you think about it carefully, it will look terrible. Of course, what made her feel most terrible was that Liu Zhang was too small......
Emperor Guangwu back then, he didn't have such an act when he was so old, right? This is what worries her, her son is so much older than Liu Zhang, but it is far from it, so Liu Zhang is terrible in comparison.
"Mother, what are we going to do? Jiangdong is only tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and Liu Zhang has a sharp weapon to break the ship, how can we retreat from the enemy? "Mother said that, naturally, there is a way.
Mrs. Wu sighed and said, "Hard-working people, isn't Zijing going to lobby Liu Zhang today?" I heard that Liu Zhang likes beautiful women and money, and we still have some financial resources in Jiangdong. Back then, in order to form an alliance with Liu Zhang, Cao Cao married his daughter and sent money to get Liu Zhang's ally. In the end, you will get the support of grain and grass when you are in Guandu, and your sister will ...... It's not small. After saying that, Mrs. Wu got up and prepared to leave.
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment and didn't speak for a long time. That Liu Zhang put too much pressure on him, but this is not a good way. Even if they marry their sister, they can't get Yuzhang, and they still can't defend Liu Zhang. If Liu Zhang wants to, sooner or later there will be a war. What to do at that time, no money and no gold......
Stayed in Chaisan and rested for a day, the heat in the south was different from the north. The heat in the north is dry, but the humidity and heat in the south are really uncomfortable. After resting for a day, I was full of energy, and the troops were ready to organize the materials and prepare for the robbery, and yesterday I told them about the situation in the north, and today I am ready to act.
"The main water master has been practicing for so long, and it can finally come in handy." Gan Ning has actually been very depressed all the time, Liu Zhang asked him to train sailors in the south, and he could only train in the south. Watching those generals fight with Liu Zhang, he was depressed. If he had known this, he would have transformed......
Liu Zhang glanced at him and said, "Xingba is in a hurry?" In my opinion, you still have to train your troops, and in the future, you won't just want to fight Sun Quan? The Wa Kingdom in the east, as well as Goguryeo, will all have sailors at that time, how can you do it if you don't train your soldiers well? Liu Zhang felt that he was still a little ambitious, at least the small countries around him who liked to jump around were subdued first.
"The lord thinks so far." Huang Quan couldn't help but smile bitterly, you must know that the Central Plains have not yet been reunified, but Liu Zhang thought further. This may be the foresight of the lord, otherwise how could he dare to send troops to attack Ma Teng in Liangzhou back then?
Liu Zhang yawned and said, "Let's get ready to go, let's make a fuss in Yangzhou for a while." "What is the power of mortars, Liu Zhang also wants to see it. The results seem to be good, but they are not actual combat.
Just as he got up here and was about to go out to order troops, a soldier from outside came to report: "The envoy of the lord Sun Quan is waiting outside the door......
Liu Zhang stopped and propped his chin for a while and said, "Let him come in." "Who is Sun Quan's envoy, Liu Zhang doesn't need to think about this to know that it is Lu Su, this guy is not only good at words, but also good in terms of talent. But in Liu Zhang's opinion, Lu Su just lacked a sense of decisiveness because he thought too much. Liu Bei borrowed this kind of thing from Jingzhou, should he turn his face or turn his face?
Then Lu Su, who had two mustaches and a Confucian shirt, walked in: "Jiangdong envoy Lu Su greets the hussar general......" After saying the proper salute.
looks like the temperament is not bad, especially with a faint smile on his face, a little confident: "Zijing... Sun Quan sent you here to persuade me? Liu Zhang looked at it with a smile, this person still played a big role in the late Soochow period. It's a pity that he died early due to illness, otherwise he would definitely be worry-free with him in Soochow.
Lu Su looked at the young Liu Zhang in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this is too young. Such a young hero, I am afraid it is the blessing of the Han Dynasty: "Since the general understands, I don't know what the general means?" Lu Su suppressed the emotion in his heart and solved the matter in front of him first.
Liu Zhang smiled and said, "What does Zijing think Sun Quan can do, or does Zijing think he can persuade me to quit the army?" For this kind of vertical and horizontal family, Liu Zhang understands that it is because of the relationship of interests. But he is not afraid of Cao Cao, nor is he afraid of any forces in the world. So how does he cross the border with himself, in the final analysis, it is still the relationship of interests.
The wind in the room was light, and Liu Zhang thought it was very good for Lu Su. If Liu Zhang can consider income under his command, this kind of person is loyal, but he also understands the truth. If they are invincible, they will naturally give in, as long as their means are not too intense.
