When the three princes of today, Jiangdong is the weakest, but the weak have the way of survival of the weak, Jiangdong relies on the Yangtze River, although it is hopeless to enterprising, but whether it is Jingxiang or the Central Plains, if it is not determined to sweep Jiangdong, it will not take the initiative to provoke him.

The reason for this is only because the price paid is not proportional to the benefits obtained.

Zhou Yu and Sun Quan have repeatedly disagreed on Jiangdong affairs, but Lu Su knows that the choices made by these two are not their fault. After Sun Quan got Jiangdong, he was cautious and conscientious, and changed Sun Ce's policy of opening up and closing, and such a change also made Jiangdong richer and richer.

But Zhou Yu is the biggest contributor to Jiangdong's expansion of territory, and his mind is no different from Sun Ce's ambition in the past. Waving the Central Plains is not only Sun Ce's will, but also Zhou Yu's dream.

If Jiangdong develops completely in accordance with Sun Quan's plan, sweeps away civil strife, hoards soldiers and horses, and develops steadily for more than ten years, even if he does not enter the Central Plains and Jingxiang in the future, Pang Shanmin and Cao Cao will not have a very good way to take this turtle shell-like Jiangdong, Jiangdong is very good at water warfare, even if it is the Jingxiang water army, they dare not say that they will win Jiangdong.

It's just such an evasive attitude, how can Zhou Yu get used to it? Sun Quan has been on the battlefield since he became the ruler of Jiangdong? Seeing that the Central Plains and Jingxiang families are growing stronger and stronger, how can Zhou Yu not be anxious? Although Sun Quan has the ambition to win the championship, but what he cares about most in his heart is to preserve the inheritance left by his father and brother.

So when Sun Quan was facing the strong Jing Xiang. will always avoid it first, not because Sun Quan did not have the strength to fight, but because he did not dare to put Jiangdong Foundation in danger.

However, the princes are competing for the world, that is, Pang Shanmin and Cao Cao, who will also go around to fight in person, risking their lives, both of them know the truth of not entering the tiger's den and getting the tiger's son, so guys like Sun Quan who cherish their lives like their lives. After all, the two of them still look down on it.

It's just that this is also the way of the princes. In the past, Zhang Lu, Liu Zhang, Tao Qian, Kong Rong, etc. All of them are the same as Sun Quan's faction. Not in its place. does not seek his own government, Sun Quan behaves like this, for those two princes. But it was a good thing, even if Pang Shanmin and Sun Quan were in-laws, they would not mention it to him in this matter.

Zhou Yu has also tried to compromise with Sun Quan over the years, Zhou Yu knows that the discord between the monarch and the minister will bring disaster to Jiangdong, but many times Sun Quan's choice will make Zhou Yu unbearable, in Zhou Yu's view, if he runs Jiangdong in full accordance with Sun Quan's plan, even if Jiangdong can become richer and richer, but for those two princes, Jiangdong is just a bigger piece of fat.

With such an easy-to-understand truth, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan have argued many times, but Sun Quan is still stubborn. During the three-year period of the princes' strike, Jiangdong was rich, and the sergeants and soldiers in the army also received a huge supplement, Sun Quan was complacent about Jiangdong having such a grand occasion, but Zhou Yu knew that although Jiangdong was developing well, how could Jingxiang and the Central Plains stagnate?

It can be seen from Zhang Liao's previous entry into Lujiang that the Central Plains withstood the huge pressure of Jingxiang, and only sent out a brigade of military horses, and the elite of Jiangdong could be forced to drive them back. The Central Plains military horses have made such great progress, and the Jingxiang military horses have captured several cities in a row today, and their soldiers dare not be underestimated.

Therefore, Zhou Yu had no choice but to retain the last possibility of Jiangdong's future entry into the Central Plains, and risked the world's disapproval to seize Hefei.

But Zhou Yu's calculations, the most important link in the middle is variable, Zhou Yu could not have imagined that Liu Bei, who was two-faced and three-faced in the past, is now like a turtle eating scales, and he no longer dares to compete for the world......

Zhou Yu was originally very angry because of Liu Bei's matter, but now Sun Quan is dragging him back, and Lu Su also persuaded him to compromise, how can Zhou Yu not be angry in his heart?

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu glared at Lu Su angrily and said to Lu Su: "Zijing, do you know what you're talking about?" This enterprising Hefei, in Zhou's view, is the last chance for my Jiangdong to dominate the world in the future, if missed, I Jiangdong northeast, no longer possible, only a corner of the place, Zijing is not willing? ”

When Lu Su heard this, he said with a bitter face: "What about being willing, what about being unwilling?" It was only because Gong Jin's plan did not succeed that the lord made such a decision, and Gong Jin did not know the temperament of the lord, and the lord wanted to get Hefei, but he was unwilling to take any risks......"

Seeing that Zhou Yu was angry and didn't say anything for a long time, Lu Su sighed: "Why don't you send that Liu Bei back, sit in Jiangdong, watch the two princes fight for the world, and when the two families are weak in the fight, then look for a good opportunity to enter the Central Plains?" ”

"The two princes are strong in soldiers and horses, the national strength is strong, Zi Jing said it easily, and wait and see the two tigers fight." When Zhou Yu heard this, he stared at Lu Su coldly and said: "It's just that Zijing has ever thought about it, that Pang Shanmin and Cao Cao are not short-sighted people, even if there is a big war, there are still countless hands left, and now my Jiangbei road is blocked by the Pang Shanmin, Zhuge Liang's foothold in Hefei is not stable, Zhou Mou to Hefei only dare to peep at the heart, if it operates for several months, Hefei is also a strong city, unbreakable, Zhou has no means, calculate this city!" ”

"Or maybe it's like before, a battle across the sea?" Lu Su thought for a moment, but was still unwilling to support Zhou Yu's disobedience to Sun Quan, and said to Zhou Yu: "When the two families fight, we will wait for the attack on Qing, Xu Erzhou!" ”

"Cao Cao has already won this trick once, if Zhou uses it again, how can he easily comply?" Zhou Yu sneered when he heard this: "And this plan is given by Pang Shanmin, the details of which are more detailed than what we know, I borrowed this plan before, but my two princes are enemies of Cao Cao, and now Jiangdong and the Central Plains are neither bordered, nor are there any entanglements of interests, and the great enemy of the henchman is Jing Xiang, why should Zhou provoke Cao Cao again?" ”

"Then I will send an envoy to Yecheng and join Cao to fight against Pang!" When Lu Su heard this, he said to Zhou Yu: "With the power of Cao Cao in the Central Plains, my Jiangdong can also temporarily compete with Jingxiang, once Cao Cao agrees to form an alliance, Gongjin will take Hefei and Shouchun, it will be no problem!" ”

"Zijing is not afraid of being ridiculed by the world, but Zhou is afraid." When Zhou Yu heard this, he sighed and said: "Then Cao Cao first invaded my Lujiang River, and then awarded Hefei and Shouchun to Jingxiang, many actions, treating my Jiangdong as nothing!" How can you trust the sincerity of such an alliance with such a prince? Besides, dealing with a Wu Hou has made Zhou physically and mentally exhausted, and with another Cao Cao, Zhou really can't cope with it......"

"But after all, the Central Plains and my Jiangdong have a common enemy." Lu Su seems to be quite inclined to form an alliance with Cao Cao, endure the anger of the moment, but can be a heavy setback to Jing Xiang, in Lu Su's view, there is a lot to do, Lu Su is about to open his mouth to persuade again, but saw Zhou Yu sighed: "Zijing, don't forget, Pang Shanmin is Zhongmou's sister-in-law, if you join Cao Cao, you teach the world how to look at him?" ”

When Lu Su heard this, he suddenly realized, saw Zhou Yu's resolute eyes, smiled bitterly, and said to Zhou Yu: "Could it be that Gongjin is bent on going his own way, and he has to take this Hefei?" ”

Zhou Yu nodded firmly and said, "At least Liu Bei is still in Zhou's hands!" ”

"Then how can Gong Jin deal with the anger of the lord?"

"He's angry with him, I'll beat mine!" When Zhou Yu heard this, he said coldly: "Occupy Hefei, it is to give him an explanation!" ”

"Gong Jin has never thought about it, what if he can't occupy Hefei?" When Lu Su heard this, he frowned and said: "That Guan Yu and Zhuge Liang are not necessarily obedient!" ”

"If you can't take Hefei, Zhou will return to his hometown, so let Zhongmou put all the blame on Zhou!" After Zhou Yu said that, Lu Su changed color and said to Zhou Yu: "Why is Gong Jin so angry with Zhong Mou? If Gongjin is not in the court, who can act as the governor? Could it be that Gongjin doesn't know, my Jiangdong has the talent to use soldiers, and there is no successor? ”

"Zijing also knows that I have no successor in Jiangdong, so Zhou did his best to expand the ......territory for the Lord," Zhou Yu heard this, and laughed miserably: "Jiangdong family, mostly tempted by that Jingxiang, the mind is only in the merchant trade, among the cold doors, there are few handsome heroes, Zhou this battle in Hefei, once the city is broken, you can continue to wave the army to the north, since Jiangdong is local, talents are scarce, Zhou can enter the hinterland of the Central Plains, recruit talents, and serve my Jiangdong!" ”

Seeing Zhou Yu's reply, Lu Su was only attacking Hefei, thinking for a long time, and said to Zhou Yu: "Then Lu will go back now, and the lord Gongxiao will take advantage of the harm, and ask Gongjin to wait for some more time!" ”

"Why do you want to go back?" When Zhou Yu heard this, he snorted coldly and said: "Hefei is about to be attacked, there is a shortage of people in Zhou's army, Zi Jingdang should stay to help Zhou!" ”

"Gong Jin, isn't he still addicted to kidnapping?" Lu Su couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, and said to Zhou Yu: "Lu Mou should go back quickly, and he must always tell the Lord about the benefits and disadvantages!" ”

"Zijing can't go back!" Zhou Yu heard Lu Su's words, and said unmoved: "Zijing should know in his heart, it is a corner of peace, and Zhongmou is also satisfied, since we all know that his ambitions are short-sighted, why should Zijing do this futile thing again?" ”

When Lu Su heard this, his brows furrowed, and he said to Zhou Yu: "Even for the sake of Bo Fu, Gong Jin should not act like this, since Gong Jin wants to attack Hefei, the stability above the court is also closely related to the conquest of my army, and Gong Jin does not want to see the chaos of my Jiangdong court and the discord of the ministers......

"That's Sun Zhongmou who is responsible for Zhou, not Zhou who is responsible for Sun Zhongmou!" Zhou Yu said, thought for a long time, and said to Lu Su: "Zi respect, go and return quickly, and inform Zhongmou Zhou's attitude, Zhou has decided to go his own way!" Whether he agrees or not, this Hefei City, Zhou has decided! If you can't take Hefei, you will take Zhou as the culprit of the war between the two families and send it to Jingxiang! ”

Seeing this, Lu Su shook his head bitterly, and left gloomily, Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su's distant back, and sighed: "I don't know if Zhongmou can comprehend Zhou's painstaking ......" (to be continued......)
