It is no longer the original only strength of the guard, the name of bravery, really with the attitude of Lu Bu back then, as long as he fights, the enemy will be cowardly before the battle, and he will be frightened.

The defeat of the Cao army, let the Sichuan army come to the peak, as long as it occupies Guanzhong, the Sichuan army is the most powerful force in the world, the whole world is shrouded in the dark clouds of the Sichuan army, those who were not optimistic about the Sichuan army before, finally had to admit that the Sichuan army took the world nine times out of ten.

The news reached Jiangdong, and the government and opposition in Jiangdong were shaken. Although Sun Quan had always had two expectations for this war, he was still shocked when he heard the news that Cao Cao was defeated, and it was a complete defeat.

Cao Cao crisscrossed the Central Plains, swept Hebei, only a small defeat, never a big defeat, the battle of Guandu is a reflection of the extraordinary strategy of the Cao Ying group, this time 500,000 troops out of the customs, was beaten to the remaining 100,000 remnants of the defeated general, shrinking Chang'an, who can not be surprised?

The conservatives who are trying to protect Jiangdong, the main battle faction who are bent on unifying the world, and the king Sun Quan, each have their own calculations, and at this moment their calculations have finally hit a bunch.

Due to the trade with Jingyi, the peace and stability of Jiangdong, and the gradual prosperity of the city of Moling along the river, Zhang Hong, the minister of Jiangdong, said that there was a son of heaven here, and suggested that the administrative office should be moved to Moling.

Moling was originally called Jinling, when Qin Shi Huang passed by Jinling, the following monks said that Jinling has the spirit of the son of heaven, Qin Shi Huang was furious, not only destroyed Feng Shui, but also changed the name of Jinling.

Sun Quan followed the advice of Zhang Hong, the first great Confucian in Jiangdong, to change Moling back to its original name Jinling, and began to prepare for the relocation of the administrative office a year ago, and now it has been completed seven or eight times out of ten, and the minister's family business has basically moved over.

In the courtyard of Zhangjiafu. Zhang Hong sat aside and tasted tea. Zhang Zhao and several Jiangdong ministers and Jiangdong's reputation were anxiously discussing something.

"Alas. How could this Cao Cao be defeated? And lost so quickly. ”

"Yes, who would have expected that this Cao Cao is too weak, Lord Zhang, do we really want to fight the Sichuan army? If we go to war with the Sichuan army, won't our business be able to continue? ”

"Do you still want to ally with the Sichuan army?" Zhang Zhao touched his beard and said, "Why do I want to go to war with the Sichuan army?" However, the Sichuan army was defeated by the Cao army, and Liu Zhang's power was in full swing, and we are not moving now. When Liu Zhang destroys Cao Cao, do you think we can be left alone? Have you ever thought about the scene of the Yizhou butcher entering Jiangdong? ”

Several people shivered together.

"Let's take a look." Zhang Zhao persuaded: "What kind of commercial money, it is all trivial, which can compare to the land, we are all Jiangdong to resist, the famous family is the Han Dynasty, the foundation of the society."

Maintain the prestige and power of our clan, keep the Han world in order, and don't let those mud legs corrupt social morality. The miasma of smoke in the world is the first priority. ”

"Then what are we doing to persuade the lord to move the ruling office to Moling? If you move here, you can't do business. It's better to move back to Kure. ”

"Yes, my Gu family bought more than 100,000 stone grain at a low price, and I am ready to sell it to Jingzhou.

"yes, yes." A few people agreed, obviously there are things waiting to be sold at home, and they also want to buy a little good things from Jingyi, and now the handicrafts sold by Jingyi merchants are getting higher and higher, and it is perfect to decorate the façade.

"Don't worry, Master Gu, your hundreds of thousands of stone grain, when the big battle with the Sichuan army starts, I will definitely find a way to let the lord buy it." Zhang Zhao said.

"Can you reach the purchase price of the Sichuan Army?" Old Master Gu asked.

"I'm afraid it won't work." Zhang Zhao said: "Master Gu, you know, although because we have won peace for Jiangdong, reasonably traded with Jingyi, and introduced their agricultural technology in an eclectic way to benefit the people, we have hoarded a lot of food and money in recent years.

But after all, there are only six counties in Jiangdong, the population is insufficient, and the navy was destroyed by Zhou Yu and Lu Meng back then, and it is already remarkable that my Jiangdong navy can be restored, not to mention that it has now exceeded the pre-war in Jiangling, reaching 60,000, which is the result of the unity of all the officials and the people.

There are also 50,000 infantry troops, a total of 110,000 people, how can they consume so much food, if the lord is asked to buy it at a high price, I am afraid it is unlikely...... But Master Gu believes in me, I will try to increase the purchase price as much as possible. ”

Master Gu nodded helplessly. The people of several other families hurriedly begged Zhang Zhao to buy their own things, and now they can't sell them to Jing Yi at a high price, it's good to be able to sell them, not to mention that there must be money to be made by selling them to Sun Quan.

Zhang Zhao answered one by one, and a soldier walked in quickly: "Lord Zhang Hong, Lord Zhang Zhao, the Lord has summoned you to the pastoral mansion to discuss matters." ”

"Got it."

Zhang Zhao responded, Zhang Hongzhen stood up in his robe, and several people hurriedly instructed: "Lord Zhang, don't forget my business." ”

Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao walked out of the house and got into the same carriage, Zhang Hong said to Zhang Zhao: "Brother, how can you promise those people?" ”

"What's the problem? They are both famous families in Jiangdong, so they should support each other. Zhang Zhao wondered, didn't these things always be handled like this before?

"There was no problem before, but now it's a big problem, do you know when it is now? Liu Zhang defeated Cao Cao's 500,000 army in Guanzhong, like the sky, brother, don't you know that our Jiangdong will be destroyed overnight? ”

Zhang Hong breathed a sigh of relief and said slowly: "I have lived for more than fifty years, and I have never seen the clouds so thick and the sky so dark, Liu Zhang, the butcher of Yizhou, a person who subverted the roots of the Han Dynasty and destroyed the social order, is as high as the sky, if he is allowed to dominate the world, Chinese civilization will go back hundreds of years."

I was forced to be an official in Xuchang at the beginning, why did I come back when the lord was in power? It is because Cao Cao is not sympathetic to the world, suppresses the world, does not distinguish between priority and priority, and has no benevolent style, but now compared to Liu Zhang, Cao Cao is already too good.

Brother, at this time, we should focus all our energy on how to deal with Liu Zhang, in order to defeat Liu Zhang, we must do our best to defeat Liu Zhang, even if the family is bankrupt, as long as we are still alive, as long as our family is still preserved, everything can be done again.

For the other clans, if they still have even a little conscience, they should donate money and food to the army. Do your best to eliminate Liu Zhang. Instead of asking the lord to buy their things at a high price at this time. Weaken the strength against Liu Zhang. ”

Zhang Zhao fell silent and became solemn.

"Brother." Zhang Hong solemnly said to Zhang Zhao: "You remember clearly, after defeating Liu Zhang, those clans can do whatever they want, and we can help as much as we can, but before defeating Liu Zhang, we must not be distracted anymore, otherwise it will be a catastrophe." I regret it then. ”

"Brother, I was wrong." Zhang Zhao finally realized that he was wrong, Liu Zhang won a big victory, and the dark clouds filled the sky, and he still thought about the problem as before, which was indeed not right.

But Zhang Zhao was worried: "Brother, Liu Zhang's stay in law is in charge of Jingzhou affairs, and his people are resourceful and decisive, and now he is leading tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in Fancheng, as long as there is a police." You can return to the division at any time, and the most terrifying thing is that Wei Wen has 100,000 sailors. How can we get through it? ”

"Go to the lord first, Lu Su will have a way."

…………

Lu Su, Zhang Hong, Zhang Zhao, and several Jiangdong core civil and military officers went to the study to see Sun Quan, and Sun Quan was holding a scroll in his hand with a smile on his face.

"Lord, what's the joy?" Zhang Hong asked.

Sun Quan handed the scroll to Zhang Hong, Zhang Hong opened it and looked at it, surprised, Sun Quan smiled and said: "Zigang (Zhang Hongzi) is really a god, saying that Jinling has the spirit of the Son of Heaven, I dare not think about it, but the throne has not been relocated to the rule, Zigang is really unpredictable." ”

On the scroll is the edict given by the Son of Heaven Liu Xie to Sun Quan, who named Sun Quan as the king of Wu and crusaded against Liu Zhang's traitors.

Strange surname king, except for the founding of the Han Dynasty, there has never been one in four hundred years, although he knew that this was Cao Cao's idea, it still surprised Zhang Hong, Cao Cao in order to win over Sun Quan against the Sichuan army, has spared no expense.

But the reason why Sun Quan is really happy, Zhang Hong will not know, Sun Quan is happy that Liu Zhang has won a big victory, although it is beyond his expectations, but he can finally show his strength.

At this time, Zhang Hong, Zhang Zhao, and Lusu should not object, looking at the current tension of the Jiangdong clan, Sun Quan also knows that the current Jiangdong is finally "united in heart".

"Lone decided not to change Moling back to Jinling, but to Jianye, what do you think?" Sun Quan asked.

"You can't do it." Zhang Hong stepped forward and bowed and said: "But these are not the top priorities at the moment, my lord, the Sichuan army is in full swing, we must find a way to capture Jingzhou and share the pressure for Cao Cao." ”

Sun Quan glanced at Zhang Hong, "Zigang, why do you want to conquer Jingzhou?" When I was fighting for Hefei, you said that weapons were murderous weapons, and war was dangerous, and you did not approve of me sending troops.

In the second year, you want to raise the army again, you say that martial arts are expensive because of the time, and it is natural to hide the army, extensively cultivate agriculture, and enable the virtuous, and must advocate the policy of leniency and benevolence, and conform to the mandate of heaven to carry out punishment, so that the world can be peaceful without labor.

Dun Dun teachings, Lone still remembers, why Zigang wants to crusade against the Sichuan army now, Lone feels that it is still necessary to hide the army, extensively cultivate farming, appoint the virtuous to enable, advocate the policy of leniency and benevolence, comply with the mandate of heaven to carry out punishment, and do not work hard to mobilize the people and the world is calm, isn't it? ”

"This ......," Zhang Hong's face was embarrassed.

Sun Quan smiled and said: "Just kidding, how can taking Jingzhou in the west be on the same level as the conquest of Hebei, Liu Zhang's violent and shoddy behavior against the sky is the moment to comply with the mandate of heaven to carry out the punishment, Zigang won't mind, right?" ”

Sun Quan is actually just angry before, whenever he wants to conquer somewhere, a large number of people always jump out, here is benevolent, righteous and virtuous, there is a sage theory, always does not let himself send troops, even if he sends troops, he will make trouble in the back.

This time, it was hard to make these people in a hurry, and they couldn't hold back for a while, but they quickly hid it and suppressed the emotions that wanted to be angry.

"No, no, my subordinates don't dare." Zhang Hong hurriedly agreed.

Sun Quan nodded and said loudly: "Liu Zhang, I have a great enmity with Jiangdong, my first brother died before the expedition, and my brother died directly at the hands of the Sichuan army, forcing me to cut the land in Jiangdong and sue for peace, flooding 30,000 troops."

I don't hide it from you, I've been waiting for a war with the Sichuan army for a few years, but Liu Zhang's army is at war with Cao Cao, Jingzhou is not empty, especially Wei Wen's 100,000 water army, it is difficult to leap, how can we capture Jingzhou? ”

Sun Quan, Zhang Hong, and Zhang Zhao all looked at Lu Su.

Lu Su is a top resourceful person in Jiangdong, and he knew that it was impossible not to fight with the Sichuan army this time, and he had already had a case.

In fact, although Lu Su was not sure that Liu Zhang could defeat Cao Cao, he even thought that Liu Zhang was very likely to lose to Cao Cao, and then Sun and Liu joined forces to fight against Cao Cao.

But even if there is only a one percent possibility, Lu Su has a case of fighting against the Sichuan army.

Lu Su stepped forward and said: "Lord, Jingzhou has 100,000 sailors, Fazheng Yanyan has 50,000 troops, our Jiangdong navy has 60,000 and 50,000 infantry, the enemy is strong and I am weak."

But we also have advantages, first, most of the Jingzhou Navy Governor Wei Wen, born water thief, I have been in contact with it many times over the years, and found that it has a certain ability to command the water army, but this talent is more aggressive, that is, to grasp the opportunity, a fatal blow, is the nature of the water thief.

When it comes to overall strategizing and winning a decisive victory, as long as our navy does not leave a fatal flaw for the Sichuan army, it is impossible to lose to Wei Wen. And it is really easy for the governor of Zhou to make sure that there are no flaws in the dispatch of the navy.

In other words, as long as the governor of Zhou Dadu commanded the naval army, even if Wei Wen's naval army was more than ours, it would be impossible to defeat us, at least in a short period of time. ”

Sun Quan and Zhang Hong Zhang Zhao nodded, knowing that they were victorious in a hundred battles, Wei Wen, as the governor of the Sichuan army, must be in control, and according to Wei Wen's record, just like the sneak attack on Sanjiangkou, it was indeed a flaw in the other party, a fatal blow.

A governor born of a water thief, his ability to mobilize an army is definitely not comparable to Zhou Yu.

"The second point, Fa Zheng Yan Yan is still in Fancheng, in recent years, along the Yangtze River in Jingzhou, beacon towers have been set up, as long as the beacon is lit, Fa Zheng can quickly return to the division, but the beacon is dead, talent is alive, as long as we plan properly, we can definitely smuggle in."

"Is there a third point?" Zhang Zhao asked.

"Third, we are still in an alliance with the Sichuan army."

"Zijing, tell me about your specific plan." Sun Quan said.

Lu Su saluted and said: "Lu Su's plan has a total of three points, first, Cao Cao is now trapped in Chang'an, and I don't expect that he will not last long, and he will inevitably return to Hangu Pass."

Cao Cao's troops are outnumbered and their morale is low, even if there is a natural danger in Hangu Pass, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist the army of tigers and wolves of the Sichuan army, we need to lead the army to help Cao Cao and show Cao Cao a united attitude. Formed the Caosun Alliance.

In the name of congratulating Liu Zhang on his victory over Cao Thief, we carried gifts to congratulate, but in fact, we took the armor soldiers and went to Chang'an through Fancheng, and if there was no defense, we would capture Fancheng, and if Fazheng was prepared, we would go to Guguan to help Cao Cao. ”

"Armored soldiers?" Zhang Hong said: "What gift can be used for so many people? ”

"Naturally it is impossible to wear gold and silver jewelry." Lu Su said: "The lord can marry Liu Zhang in the name of consolidating the relationship, Liu Zhang thought that we were afraid of the Sichuan army, and we must agree." (To be continued......)
