Chapter 156 Lianwu resists Cao
"Oh?" When Sun Quan heard Zhou Yu say that he could crusade against Huang Zu without relying on Liu Yong, he was surprised and happy in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "Gong Jin, do you have any good plans, come quickly." Zhang Zhao and Lu Su were also in good spirits and listened attentively.
Zhou Yu arched his hand and said, "Lord! Liu Yong has the talent of heaven, Wen can rejuvenate the country and secure the country, and Wu can attack cities and seize land, which is rare in the world; Liu Yong has always had the ambition of Lingyun, the people support him, and he is leveled in the domain, and the ministers expect that he is definitely not a thing in the pool. Now Liu Yong has rebelled against Cao Cao, supported his troops and stood on his own, forming alliances everywhere, and sooner or later he will be the great enemy of my Jiangdong. The ministers have been thinking for a long time, and there are three policies, upper, middle and lower, and I hope that the lord will adopt them prudently. ”
Sun Quan was slightly stunned, nodded and said, "Gong Jin will say the best policy first." ”
"Yes, my lord. That Liu Yong has his own merits, Ren Xian uses his ability, and the Luoyuan Mansion where he is located has only been in a few years to cultivate politics and peace, and all industries are prosperous, and he is rich; The city of Fuyi is wide and thick, the soldiers are well-trained, and the grain and grass are piled up like a mountain, which can be described as impregnable. If it is not a nationwide army, or a sneak attack, otherwise you can calmly protect yourself. Now Liu Yong lobbied Jiangdong alone, according to Zhou Yu's opinion, the lord should make a decision, arrest and kill him, so as to prevent future troubles. As soon as Liu Yong dies, Ruyuan will be in chaos. The lord can lead the Jiangdong army to attack the plain, at this time Cao Cao is far away in Wuheng, and the whip is beyond his reach; Liu Biao did nothing, there is nothing to worry about, and the lord can succeed in one battle. After that, the lord could take the original as the foundation, accompanied by the Jiangdong naval army, and then conquer Jiangxia and Xiangyang, all of which took the land of Jingzhou, competed with Cao Cao, and divided the world equally. My lord, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so don't miss it. ”
As soon as Zhou Yu's words came out, everyone was dumbfounded. Lu Su was drenched in cold sweat, and hurriedly stood up and said, "Lord, this strategy is definitely not feasible. Saying that, Lu Su hurriedly approached Sun Quan, knelt down on his knees, clasped his fists and bowed deeply, and said: "The lord is wise and benevolent, respectful and virtuous, this is the reason why General Bo Fu entrusted the burden of Wanjun to the lord." Since Bingjun held the shaft, the lord has recruited handsome and handsome people, and hired celebrities; Suppressing Shanyue, begging for disobedience, Jiangbiao Yinghao Xian attached to it. However, looking at the neighbors of Jiangdong, there are Huang Zu in the near vicinity, Cao Cao in the distance, and there are mountains and rivers in the vicinity, and the domain is not peaceful. The lord still needs to be a corporal of courtesy and virtuous, thirsty for talent, recruit heroes from all over the world, practice benevolent government, implement benevolent policies, benefit the people, and recuperate, so as to have a stable and prosperous situation and fight against Cao Cao. Liu Yong is not a sycophant, insidious and cunning person, virtuous and bright, nirvana but not Zi, famous all over the world. Liu Yong admired the virtue and talent of the lord, and wanted the two families to form an alliance to resist Cao Cao in order to repay the court, and his heart was full of goodwill. If the lord feels that this strategy is inappropriate, he can refuse it, how can he kill him because of this and block the hope of the four seas, so that the relatives are painful and the enemies are happy. Where, then, is the Lord's faith? Who of the heroes of the world would dare to serve the lord? This matter is very important, and I hope that the lord will think twice. ”
Zhang Zhao also said: "My lord." What Zijing said is indeed reasonable. Zhang Zhao also thought that although Liu Yong was a big trouble for me in Jiangdong, he couldn't be killed. 'The two countries fight each other, do not kill them', even if the enemy and us are at war, they must be followed, not to mention that Liu Yong's trip is only to fight Cao together, with good thoughts. If you kill it, I am afraid that the world will be dissatisfied, and the lord's virtue will be lost. ”
Sun Quan twisted his beard, listened quietly, thought for a while, and said: "I think what Zijing and Zibu said is very true. Gong Jin, this strategy is enough, what about the other two strategies? ”
Zhou Yu sighed secretly, secretly said that it was a pity, and said: "The middle strategy is the plan of 'destroying the enemy by false means'. The lord can first form an alliance with Liu Yong. Our department then took advantage of the road to conquer Huang Zu. When I returned to the teacher, I asked Liu Yong for money, food, and baggage according to the oath, and Liu Yong would go out of the city. At that time, our department can take advantage of its unpreparedness, take advantage of the situation to kill Liu Yong, and attack Fuyi! ”
Lu Su couldn't help but gasp. "False Path to Destroy Yu" is said to be in the Spring and Autumn Period when Jin Xiangong accepted Xun Xi's policy, sent a heavy gift to the monarch of Yu State, and asked to borrow the road to conquer Yu State. The minister of Yu State, Gong Zhiqi, said that Yu State and Yu State auxiliary cars depend on each other, lips and teeth are cold, Yu State is destroyed, and it is impossible for Yu State to survive. It's a pity that the monarch of Yu State was greedy for small profits, did not listen to advice, and promised to borrow from the Jin State. As expected, after the Jin Kingdom destroyed the Kingdom of Yu, he came back and destroyed the Kingdom of Yu by the way.
Zhou Yu's plan is so poisonous! Liu Yong was afraid that it would be difficult to prevent, Lu Su was worried, bowed to Sun Quan, and was about to open his mouth to persuade him. Sun Quan stretched out his hand and shook it gently, signaling Lu Su not to speak for the time being, and then said to Zhou Yu: "Doesn't Gongjin still have a plan, let's also say it together." ”
"Yes, my lord." Zhou Yu bowed down and replied, "The lord can temporarily detain Liu Yong in Chaisang, and let him go back after our army takes down Jiangxia." With Liu Yong as a hostage, I don't believe that Luo Yuan refused to comply. ”
Lu Su's mind turned sharply, I am afraid that only this one strategy is slightly better among the three strategies, if the second strategy is used, I am afraid that both will lose, so he said: "Lord, if there is no good strategy, Lu Su feels that the third strategy is acceptable." ”
Sun Quan asked: "But Liu Yong is the imperial court's pro-feudal Yuyuan Taishou, General Yangwei and Mu Xianghou, how can Lone be detained by Chaisang at will?" ”
"My lord." Zhou Yu arched his hand, and said, "The lord has a sister, dignified and virtuous, with a pretty face, it is better to allow Liu Yong, hypothetically marry forever, break Cao with one heart, and support the Han family." Liu Yong will be overjoyed and stay in Chaisang. ”
Zhang Zhao said: "I heard that Liu Yong has just married four wives, all of them are extremely beautiful, and they are newly married Yan'er, like glue and knees, and they are extremely affectionate, how can they be easily left behind." Moreover, the sister of the lord is so reverent, how can she look up to others and submit to others? ”
Sun Quan also shook his head and said: "My sister is only thirteen years old, and she is not yet in time, and her mother loves her very much, how can she allow Liu Yong?" This is a must-try. After thinking for a while, Sun Quan said, "Look at it alone." He said to Lu Su first: "Zijing, you go and tell Liu Yong that Gu will sign an oath with him tomorrow and reconcile the two sides." He also said to Zhang Zhao: "Zibu went to arrange the alliance, don't be thorough and meticulous in etiquette, don't lose Jiangdong's face." ”
"Is the lord going to do the middle of the way?" Lu Su asked cautiously.
Sun Quan shook his head and said, "Definitely." After signing the covenant, Liu Yong could not only walk freely in Jiangdong, but also turn back to the plains, and there was no restriction on loneliness. ”
As soon as these words came out, Lu Su was overjoyed, Zhang Zhao was full of doubts, and Zhou Yu was shocked. Lu Su and Zhang Zhao retreated first, Zhou Yu was disheartened and had to leave. Sun Quan smiled and said, "Gong Jin stays." ”
Zhou Yu barely perked up and replied, "Yes, lord." ”
Sun Quan knew that Zhou Yu was smiling, and he didn't say anything, and asked, "Gong Jin, what kind of person do you think Lonely?" ”
Zhou Yu was slightly stunned and replied: "The lord is lenient and intelligent, and he is good at making appointments. Giving government and service, everything must be consulted; Educate the guest travel, pro-virtuous and loving people. The reward does not choose resentment, but the punishment adds to the guilty. The subordinates are all grateful to Huaide, but loyal and righteous. ”
Sun Quan smiled slightly, and asked again: "Gong Jin, if Cao Cao raises troops to attack, his troops are ten times that of me, can I fight alone with the strength of Jiangdong?" ”
When Zhou Yu heard this, he was immediately full of pride, high spirits, and said loudly: "The lord has lofty ambitions, is a martial artist, and the martyrdom of his father and brother is the time to run rampant in the world and make meritorious contributions, not the lord of surrender; The lord's subordinates are resourceful, loyal and courageous, and not surrendered. Jiangdong is fertile for thousands of miles, heroes are happy, the people are happy, the people are prosperous and the country is rich, this is called the ********, the country of strength and wealth. Now there are tens of thousands of armor in Jiangdong, all of whom are loyal and heroic; Grain and grass are abundant, piled up like mountains, and there is the Yangtze River moat to block it, such a rich and precipitous place, how can it be given to others. Although Cao Cao has ten times the strength, his labor is far away, and he has committed several taboos of soldiers: the northern soil is not flat, Ma Teng and Han Sui are their descendants, and they are also taboo; The Northern Army was not familiar with water warfare, and gave up the saddle horse to fight the boat, competing with the Eastern Wu, and the two taboos; drove Chinese soldiers, waded into rivers and lakes, did not accept water and soil, had many diseases, and had three taboos. Cao Cao committed this number of taboos, although there are many, he will be defeated. Lord, if Cao Cao attacks, Zhou Yu will not ask for his life, he is willing to get tens of thousands of elite soldiers and capture him for the lord! ”
"There is a lonely Gongjin, such as King Wen meets Jiang Shang, and Gaozu has to meet Zhang Liang." Sun Quan laughed and said in a low voice, "Gong Jin." The three strategies you offer, the upper policy is too urgent, the lower policy is too slow, and only the middle strategy is the best. ”
Zhou Yu was surprised and delighted, and wondered: "But why did the lord ...... just now?"
Sun Quan smiled and continued: "Gong Jin." Zi Jing has both virtue and ability, and is loyal, but he is also loyal and benevolent, almost pedantic. If Zijing knew the original meaning of Lonely, I expected that he could keep his mouth shut, but it would be difficult to hide the loss in his heart. With Liu Yong's wisdom and wisdom, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not see some clues from it, and it is a pity that Gongjin's clever plan will fail. Lonely Zijing and Zibu are for this. ”
Zhou Yu was overjoyed, his face was radiant, and he said with a smile: "Lord, if you can get the Yuan, you will have a better chance of winning against Cao Cao." ”
The two looked at each other, both smiling, very proud. After a while, Sun Quan asked again: "I heard that Liu Yong came here and wanted to promise his wife and sister to Gong Jin, but Gong Jin tried his best to refuse, why is this?" ”
Zhou Yu looked calm, and said solemnly: "Lord." The husband is in the world, meets the lord of the encounter, entrusts the righteousness of the monarch and the minister, and the grace of the flesh and blood inside, and shares the blessings and woes. The main public committee takes Zhou Yu's important position, consults with important responsibilities, words must be done, plans must be followed, trust is plus, Zhou Yu has to meet the master, if Su Qin, Zhang Yi, Lu Jia, and Li Sheng come back, the mouth is like a hanging river, the tongue is like a sharp blade, and it is difficult to move the heart of Gongjin. His subordinates should be smeared with their livers and brains and serve the lord, how can they abolish the public because of their own personal affairs and marry Liu Yong? ”
Sun Quan nodded and said with emotion: "There is a lonely Gongjin, no matter how worry-free it is." He added: "This matter is confidential, only you and I know, don't be careful, don't leak it." ”
Zhou Yu understood and said with a smile: "Zhou Yu will keep his mouth shut." ”
The next day, after friendly consultations between the two sides, an agreement was reached to form an alliance to resist Cao Cao. At Liu's request, the matter was held in secret, so the signing ceremony was extremely simple. Zhang Zhao presided, Zhou Yu and Lu Su witnessed, Liu Yong and Sun Quan were all dressed in costumes, standing with their heads held high, and the two sides killed animals and blood, and determined the "strategic partnership". Zhou Yu couldn't help but sneer secretly when he saw Liu Yong's high-spirited expression.
Liu Yong naturally has reason to be immersed in deep joy. The main task of his trip to Jiangdong was to form an alliance with Sun Quan, but the meeting with Zhou Yu made him disheartened. However, Liu Yong also knew that this so-called alliance treaty of mutual non-aggression and mutual support was not very reliable, and it didn't matter, his purpose was just to prevent Sun Quan from being hindered in his future actions. However, Liu Yong also has regrets, that is, the marriage between Xiao Qiao and Zhou Yu failed. In his heart, Little Joe's happiness is far more important than forming an alliance. It's a pity that the heavens don't follow people! Forget it, let's go back to Fuyi first and then make plans.
On this day, Liu Yong has been thinking about coming out for several months, and Liu Yong can't help but feel homesick, and he can't wait to have wings under his armpits and fly back to Fuyi's home as soon as possible. Sun Quan knew what he was thinking, so he didn't deliberately keep it, gave a lot of rare treasures, and asked Lu Su to allocate a team of soldiers, just waiting for Liu Yong's itinerary to escort them across the river.
I didn't expect the sky to be unpredictable! Before Liu Yong could get a painting from Cao Buxing, an accident highlighted him. On this day, Lu Su hurriedly came to see Liu Yong and said, "Brother Chongru, I'm afraid you will have to stay in Chaisang for a while." ”
Liu Yong was surprised: "Brother Zijing, is something wrong?" ”
Lu Su asked, "Chongru, I don't know if you know Shanyue?" ”
Shanyue is the descendant of the ancient Yue people, in fact, it is the southern aborigines who live in the mountains, also known as the "mountain people", distributed in the mountains and forests of Danyang, Huiji, Yuzhang, Poyang and other counties, making a living by planting and hunting, also mining copper and iron, casting armor by themselves, fighting bravely, not under the control of the local government, and in a semi-independent state. At the end of the Han Dynasty, especially during the Three Kingdoms period, Shanyue often relied on mountain hazards to repeatedly attack the cities and towns of Wu, seriously threatening the local economic and social stability, and becoming a major problem for the Sun and Wu regimes. It can be said that the existence of Shanyue is like scabies on Wu Guo's body, although it is a minor disease, but if it is not eliminated for a day, Sun Quan will have trouble sleeping and eating, let alone fighting for hegemony in the world. Therefore, Lu Xun, a famous general of Wu State, commented on Shanyue and said very reasonably: "Fang Jin's heroes are chess, jackals are watching, and the enemy is peaceful." …… The old evil of the mountain is deep in the ground. The husband's heart is not at peace, and it is difficult to ...... far"
Could it be the effect of Chen Deng's bribery of Shanyue? Liu Yong's heart sank, nodded, and said: "Zijing, Shanyue has few people and is scattered, and it only occasionally sneaks up on the village, and it can't stir up much trouble." ”
Lu Su shook his head and said, "Chongru doesn't know. This time Shanyue is different from the past, all over the country launched at the same time, gathered crowds to come out, attacked the city and seized the wall, burned and looted, extremely ferocious. There are also unconvinced people from all over the country who take the opportunity to make trouble, and the wolf Gu is stumbling, which is even more outrageous. All the people were frightened and panicked, so they had to help the old and the young, drag their families and families, and flee in all directions. Now all parts of Chaisan are overcrowded. It is said that most of the displaced people gathered at the ferry, ready to grab boats to cross the river and flee north. ”
Liu Yong couldn't help but be surprised, the refugees will cross the river to the north, and Yuyuan must bear the brunt of it, I wonder if Yu Tuo has corresponding preparations? He was the initiator of this accident, Liu Yong scolded himself in his heart, how did he come up with such a bad idea for Chen Deng? It's good now, I'm also trapped in Chaisang, how can this be good?
