Lu Su's words made Sun Quan stunned, obviously, Lu Su said these words he never thought, in Sun Quan's opinion, if he really abandoned his weapons and surrendered, Cao Jun would definitely not want his own life, after all, Cao Jun wanted to appease people's hearts, he was the lord of Jiangdong, and killing him was harmful and useless.

But now it seems that what Lu Su said is not unreasonable, the Cao army is so powerful, causing Jiangdong families to plan to surrender, if he really surrenders to the Cao army, after the Cao army stabilizes the situation in Jiangdong, his situation will be really precarious, and at that time, who dares to avenge himself.

Taking a deep breath, Sun Quan's face calmed down a lot, but judging from the situation in the conference hall just now, the main battle faction is obviously weak, even if it has its own joining, it is still difficult to resist the main faction, after all, the wealthy families in Jiangdong mostly say that they want to surrender to Cao Jun, because compared with the Sun family, Cao Cao is obviously safer.

Although Cao Cao and the Sun family have done the slaughter of the family, but compared with Sun Ce, Cao Cao is obviously more benevolent, although Sun Quan is not as domineering as Sun Ce, but hatred is accumulative, the hatred of the previous generation is not rewarded, and it often accumulates to the next generation, although Sun Quan and Sun Ce are brothers, but the result is still the same, after all, it is Sun Quan who is now in charge of Jiangdong, so the object of hatred of the family naturally falls on Sun Quan.

Seeing Sun Quan frowning, Lu Su immediately knew what Sun Quan was thinking, coughed softly, and Lu Su suddenly said: "The main faction is powerful, and the lord and several generals alone are obviously weak, but one person can turn things around with his own strength." ”

Hearing Lu Su say this, Sun Quan's eyes suddenly lit up, without Lu Su saying it, Sun Quan knew who this person in Lu Su's mouth was, and there was no doubt that this person must be Zhou Yu. Looking at the entire Jiangdong Wenchen military generals, I am afraid that only Zhou Yu has such ability, and in the entire Jiangdong, who else is more authoritative than Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu and Sun Quan both appreciate and hold a grudge against this person. What I appreciate is that Zhou Yu is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, and he is a right-hand man who governs the country and the world with a Qi family, but what he holds a grudge is that Zhou Yu is the sworn brother of his brother Sun Ce, and because of this, Sun Quan does not dare to easily reuse Zhou Yu.

Sun Quan is in charge of Jiangdong, so he naturally hopes that he can do as well as his brother, but Sun Ce's figure is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Faced with such a situation, Sun Quan naturally wanted to get rid of Sun Ce's influence, and it was precisely for this reason that Sun Quan gradually alienated some important generals under Sun Ce.

However, for Zhou Yu, although Sun Quan was estranged, Zhou Yu's exploits had to make Sun Quan very jealous of him, in addition, Sun Quan was only in charge of Huiji, Wujun, Danyang, Yuzhang, and Luling counties. Its remote and dangerous places have not yet been fully attached, and the heroes of the world are scattered in various states and counties. did not establish an interdependent relationship between the monarch and the ministers with the Sun family, at this critical moment, the first to come forward to support Sun Quan were Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu, Lü Fan, Cheng Pu and others. treated Sun Quan with the courtesy of a monarch and a minister, and was in charge of military and political affairs together with Changshi Zhang Zhao.

It can be said that if it weren't for Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others, his position as the lord of Jiangdong would obviously not be steady, and now. Zhang Zhao is the leader of the main faction, it is precisely because of the existence of Zhang Zhao that the main faction is unprecedentedly strong, so now only with the support of Zhou Yu, the main battle faction can be evenly matched with the main faction, and Zhou Yu is in charge of Jiangdong Soldiers and Horses, and only with his support can Jiangdong work together to resist Cao Cao.

But Sun Quan was a little hesitant, now the main faction is unprecedentedly strong, and Zhou Yu will also surrender to the lord, for this, Sun Quan has no confidence in his heart.

Lu Su obviously guessed Sun Quan's thoughts again, smiled slightly, Lu Su said in a deep voice: "The lord can rest assured, the governor of Zhou is a very smart person, how can he not see through the pros and cons of surrendering to the Cao army, besides, the Jiangdong counties were defeated by General Sun and the governor of Zhou, how could he watch Jiangdong surrender to the Cao army, as long as the lord ordered the governor of Zhou to return to Wu County, the governor will naturally be able to deter others." ”

Sun Quan nodded, although Sun Quan didn't like Lu Su's words very much, but he obviously had no way to refute it, the Jiangdong counties were indeed fought by his brother and Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu's feelings for Jiangdong were obviously deeper than Zhang Zhao and others, and Zhou Yu categorically would not give up Jiangdong.

After pondering for a while, Sun Quan's heart finally made a decision, my fate is up to me, since he wants to replace his brother's position in the hearts of the people in Jiangdong, then he must make achievements that are not weaker than his brother, at the moment, Cao Jun's attack is obviously the best opportunity, as long as he can defeat Cao Cao, who else in the world will underestimate himself, but if he wants to win the battle, then Zhou Yu is the most important role in this battle, because Zhou Yu is in charge of Jiangzhou Soldiers and Horses.

"The order of passing on the power made Zhou Yu rush back to Wu County." Sun Quan said loudly, at this moment, Sun Quan already had a little realization in his heart, he definitely couldn't surrender to Cao Jun like a lost dog, even if he died, he would die vigorously and deservedly.

Hearing Sun Quan's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Lu Su's face, he groaned again, and then said: "The lord is wise, but there is one more thing, I hope the lord agrees." ”

Sun Quan was slightly stunned, and then asked, "What's the matter, but it's okay to say it?" With a decision in his heart, Sun Quan's mood was obviously much better.

"Lord, no matter what, the Cao army is strong, and the army of more than 100,000 is not a child's play, so I hope that the lord can abandon his previous suspicions and unite all the forces that can be united to fight against the Cao army together." Lu Su said in a deep voice, even if he exhausted the strength of Jiangdong, the Sun clan had no way to compete with Cao Jun's army of more than 100,000 troops.

Sun Quan frowned, Sun Quan knew that what Lu Su was talking about was Liu Qi and Liu Bei, but how many troops did Liu Qi and Liu Bei have, even if they formed an alliance with the two, how many benefits could they bring to the Sun family.

Seeing that Sun Quan was still very hesitant, Lu Su spoke again: "Lord, although Liu Qi is mediocre, Liu Bei is a hero, Cao Jun has fought for many years and has won almost every battle. Over the years, Cao Jun has not been defeated a few times, and Liu Bei has been present in these few times, so Liu Bei is a character. ”

"Moreover, Jiangxia is full of Jingzhou's elite divisions, although Jiangxia's troops are very small. But to be able to fight well, our army has been attacking Jiangxia for a long time, and it has not always captured Jiangxia, this is not because our army's strength is not enough, but that Jiangxia's Jingzhou army is indeed elite. ”

Sun Quan's expression obviously changed, it was obvious that he had been a little moved by what Lu Su said, and at this time, Lu Su spoke again: "Lord, in fact, Liu Bei's military advisor Zhuge Liang has already arrived in Wu County. But the council chamber was so noisy that I didn't introduce the Lord to him in the first place. ”

Sun Quan nodded, and then said: "Since Uncle Liu Huang sent an envoy here, Quan naturally has no reason not to see him, so let Quan see this Zhuge Liang and see what he is capable of, if he can really say power, why not form an alliance with him." ”

Sun Quan and Lu Su discussed for a long time. Only then did he return to the council hall again, when everyone in the chamber saw Sun Quan. Finally willing to calm down, Sun Quan just left the table angrily, and the important ministers all knew that Sun Quan was really angry, and if he continued to argue at this time, it would definitely attract Sun Quan's anger.

Sun Quan strode to the main seat and sat on his knees. Sun Quan said in a deep voice: "This matter is very important, so I decided to call Zhou Yu and Zhou Dudu back, listen to what Zhou Dudu means, and wait for Zhou Yu to come back." I'll make up my mind. ”

Hearing this, everyone was silent, Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao were in charge of military and political affairs, Zhang Zhao was in charge, and Zhou Yu was in charge of the army, surrendering to the Cao army was a major matter, this matter naturally had to be discussed with Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu had a close relationship with the Sun family, so he did have the right to speak.

Everyone didn't speak, and at this time, Lu Su suddenly got up and said to Sun Quan: "Lord, the day before yesterday, Uncle Liu Huang sent an envoy to Wu County to ask to see the lord, I wonder if the lord summoned him?" ”

When Sun Quan heard this, he said lightly: "Please let him in." ”

As soon as Sun Quan's words fell, a man with a face like a crown of jade walked in, but it was Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang had just sat upright on top of the guest seat, and suddenly heard someone suddenly say: "I, Zhang Zhao is just a very inconspicuous scholar in Jiangdong, but I have also admired Mr. Kong Ming's name for a long time, I heard that when Mr. Kong Ming was in Longzhong, he compared himself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi, is this true?" ”

Hearing Zhang Zhao speak, Zhuge Liang looked at Zhang Zhao with a smile, these days in Jiangdong, Zhuge Liang has not been idle, during this time, Zhuge Liang knows everything in Jiangdong very clearly, especially Zhang Zhao in front of him, he is the leader of the main faction, if he wants to achieve a goal and form an alliance with Sun Quan, the first thing he needs to do is Zhang Zhao, but Zhang Zhao is the first strategist in Jiangdong, obviously it will not be easily solved.

As soon as Zhang Zhao spoke, Zhuge Liang immediately felt Zhang Zhao's fierce offensive, Zhang Zhao said that he was just an inconspicuous scholar in Jiangdong, but he said that he was compared to Guan Zhong Leyi and others, it was obvious that this was laughing at his own self-indulgence, Zhang Zhao was the first strategist in Jiangdong, he must have a deep meaning when he said this.

Zhuge Liang pondered for a while, and then said: "Mr. Why should he be arrogant, Mr. is an important minister in Jiangdong, and how can he be an inconspicuous scholar, if Mr. is an inconspicuous scholar, then I am afraid that I will be embarrassed here, and this metaphor is just a small metaphor in my life." ”

Zhuge Liang's words made Zhang Zhao frown slightly, but Zhang Zhao obviously expected that Zhuge Liang was categorically difficult to deal with, as the so-called fame is not a vanity, Zhuge Liang's is really prestigious, such a celebrity, if he does not have some adaptability, how can he have such a great reputation.

However, Zhang Zhao had already thought of a way to deal with it, glanced at Zhuge Liang, and then spoke again: "I heard that Liu Yuzhou was lucky to get Mr. after visiting the grass house, and said that after having Mr., he would be like a fish in water and make great achievements, but now even Jingzhou, where he is stationed, has been taken away by Cao Cao, I don't know how you planned and decided?" Zhang Zhao squinted, he was like a scheming hunter, bringing Zhuge Liang into the trap little by little.

"It is true that our army is now in a disadvantageous situation for the time being, but those defeats are caused by objective reasons, my lord Liu Yuzhou is benevolent and righteous, and he can't bear to seize the city of his brother Liu Jingzhou, and Liu Cong's kid listened to Cai Mao's slander and secretly surrendered, as for what strategy we will adopt next, this is a military secret, with all due respect." Zhuge Liang did not give in, and replied loudly.

Zhang Zhao smiled slightly. Then he said: "In this way, Mr.'s words and deeds seem to be a little inconsistent. As he spoke, Zhang Zhao's eyes narrowed again.

After a slight sigh, Zhang Zhao said: "Mr. compares himself to Guan Zhong and Le Yi, but what he did is really exaggerated, but it is well known. Guan Zhong helped Duke Qi Huan dominate the princes; Le Yi helped the weak Yan State and captured more than 70 cities in the Qi State, both of whom had the talent to govern the country. ”

"And what about you, sir, if you compare yourself and be happy, you should also eliminate harm for the people and eliminate thieves, but the truth is that Liu Yuzhou didn't get Mr. before. It can also win some battles and occupy some cities; Now I got Mr. but was beaten by Cao Cao to throw away his armor and flee everywhere, along the way, abandon Xinye, go to Fancheng, defeat Dangyang, and go to Xiakou. I don't even have a place to live, why after Mr. Yuzhou Vested. On the contrary, it is better to not get Mr. when I don't get it, I speak a little straight, and I hope Mr. will not be surprised. Although Zhang Zhao apologized, there was not the slightest apology in his tone.

On the contrary, instead of being unapologetic, Zhang Zhao's words were full of sarcasm. Not only Zhang Zhao, but the strategists in the entire conference hall were snickering, and some people didn't pay attention, and they even laughed out loud, in the entire conference hall. The only strategist who didn't snicker, I'm afraid it was only Lu Su.

Zhang Zhao's question is really powerful, first Zhuge Liang was held very high, and then Zhuge Liang was slammed to the ground, fortunately, Zhuge Liang's bearing is beyond ordinary people, if it was someone else, he must have already been angry with the seven orifices of smoke, and although Zhuge Liang did not have seven orifices of smoke, but he was obviously a little angry.

However, Zhuge Liang's restraint is still very strong, he knows that if he is angry, then he will really be defeated, and then, Zhuge Liang laughed dumbly, and then said: "The Dapeng bird spreads its wings and soars thousands of miles, how can its ambition be known by those little birds, for example, if someone is seriously ill, he should first eat some nutritional products such as millet porridge, and then take some mild tonics; When his appetite is better, he will eat some chicken, duck and fish to replenish his body, and when his body is better, the elixir of medicinal cruelty can be used again, otherwise if he uses fierce medicine at the beginning, it will be strange if he does not cure people to death. ”

Zhuge Liang's words were amazing, and in one sentence, all the Wenchen strategists who laughed at him were compared to birds, hearing that Zhuge Liang's words were so sharp, His Royal Highness Lu Su finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Lu Su obviously didn't expect that Zhuge Liang's words had not been finished.

I saw Zhuge Liang groaning slightly, and then spoke again: "My lord Uncle Liu Huang was defeated and had to take refuge in Liu Biao, at that time, my lord lacked soldiers and major generals, no more than a thousand soldiers, no more than Guan Yu, Sun Qian, as for Xinye, it is just a place where my lord temporarily lives, Xinye is just a small county town, there are few people, and there is less food, Liu Yuzhou is just a temporary place to accommodate himself, can he really use the small place of Xinye to dominate one side." ”

"Even though there is a shortage of soldiers and major generals, but my lord is still not afraid of the Cao army, Du Chen Du Silang is famous all over the world, commanding battles, it can be said that he is invincible in a hundred battles, he is such a person, not still in Xinye, more than 10,000 Cao army elites, and finally ended up in defeat and fled, I think Guan Zhong and Le Yi's use of troops may be nothing more than that."

"Moreover, being outnumbered, winning or losing for a while are very common things, Gaozu was defeated by Xiang Yu many times before, but he won the final victory in the next battle, this is because of the fact that there are really strategic heroes like Han Xin to assist him, unlike some people who talk rhetorically, sitting at home and talking, no one can compare, but really respond to the situation on the battlefield to make suggestions, but can't think of any way at all, this really makes the world feel too funny."

Zhuge Liang's remarks made the Jiangdong strategists in the council hall somewhat dumbfounded, the situation on the battlefield is really changing rapidly, just now Zhang Zhao was far ahead, but looking at it now, Zhang Zhao's face was flushed at the moment, obviously not knowing how he should reply to Zhuge Liang's remarks.

"Now the Cao army is hundreds of thousands, there are many generals, there is plenty of grain and grass, the Cao army is going south, the momentum is like a rainbow, if the Cao army conquers Jiangxia in one fell swoop, I am afraid that the emperor's uncle will flee again." There was silence in the council chamber for a moment, and then someone spoke again.

Zhuge Liang heard the sound and looked at it, and immediately knew who the person who spoke was, this person was Yu Tuo, Yu Tuo was also a heavyweight strategist in Jiangdong, and after a moment of silence, Zhuge Liang replied: "Cao Jun is just a rabble, even if he has an army of hundreds of thousands, there is nothing to fear." ”

Yu Chuan sneered slightly. Then he said: "You have been defeated repeatedly, and you have retreated to Jiangxia from Xinye to Jiangxia, and now Jiangxia is still precarious, you are embarrassed to say that you are not afraid, even if you are talking big, you don't need to exaggerate it so much." ”

"My lord Liu Yuzhou only has an army of a few thousand people. are not afraid of Cao Cao's tiger and wolf army, and your Eastern Wu soldiers are well fed, and the Yangtze River is dangerous as a barrier, but everyone is afraid to death, and everyone wants to persuade their lords to surrender on their knees. Zhuge Liang then said coldly, and his words were obviously very sharp, which made Yu Fan not know how to answer. At this moment, Yu Fu lowered his head like a defeated rooster.

Then, Bu Qi, Xue Zong, Lu Ji, Yan Jian and others successively spoke out to debate with Zhuge Liang, they were also sharp, but none of them could compete with Zhuge Liang, often just one or two sentences, and everyone was speechless by Zhuge Liang.

Your Highness, watch the development of the gaffe. Lu Su's eyes gradually lit up, not to mention anything else. Zhuge Liang's eloquence is really unparalleled in the world, Jiangdong has almost exhausted his strategists, but no one can argue Zhuge Liang, looking at Zhuge Liang who is full of energy, Lu Su's heart also faintly has some fighting spirit.

However, Lu Su still shook his head helplessly, this is not the time to compete. What he needs to do now is to unite all the forces that can be united to fight against Cao Jun, after all, the threat of Cao Jun's hundreds of thousands of troops is still there.

Seeing Zhuge Liang exerting his might and making the Jiangdong ministers speechless, Sun Quan obviously had a different idea, this Zhuge Liang is really a talent. Not to mention anything else, this debate is really unparalleled in the world, why did such a talented person not vote for himself.

Zhuge Liang's answer was like a stream, and the people of the main faction were incomplete, in this regard, the main faction naturally did not like it, no, a few people wanted to get up, wanted to come forward to debate with Zhuge Liang, and at this moment, everyone suddenly heard a loud shout.

"Kong Ming is a genius in the world, but you make things difficult for him in every way, you don't know how to be polite, now that Cao Cao's army is pressing, you don't think about the strategy to deal with the enemy, but you are playing tricks here, do you think it's interesting?" When everyone heard the sound, they looked and found that this person was Huang Gai.

Although Huang Gai is all the grain officials of Eastern Wu, but his identity is obviously transcendent, Huang Gai is the three monarchs of Sun Jian, Sun Ce, and Sun Quan, and he is a veritable old minister of the third generation, such a person speaks to defend Zhuge Liang, which makes it difficult for the ministers of Jiangdong to come forward to argue with Zhuge Liang again.

And Zhuge Liang also breathed a sigh of relief, he seemed to be dealing with it like a stream, and the wind was light, but only he knew the risks in this, if he was not careful, all his efforts would be in vain.

Seeing that no one in the room spoke again, Sun Quan suddenly said at this time: "Okay, let's stop today's business for the time being, I have a headache and I'm tired." After saying that, Sun Quan stood up and turned to leave, and seeing this situation, everyone was quite surprised, thinking that Sun Quan would say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Sun Quan's departure made Zhuge Liang a little surprised, he single-handedly said that he had retreated so many strategists from the main surrender faction, but Sun Quan's attitude was so unpredictable, could it be that Sun Quan was still hesitating, at such a critical juncture, I really didn't know what Sun Quan was hesitating about, he studied the situation in Jiangdong so thoroughly, but he obviously didn't expect Sun Quan to have such a hesitant attitude, Sun Ce and Sun Jian are both heroes of a generation, but Sun Quan is obviously a little disappointed, very disappointed.

Everyone in the council hall left one after another, and Zhuge Liang shook his head slightly, stood up, and was about to leave, when he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Kong Ming go slowly, I have something to discuss with you." Zhuge Liang turned his head to look and found that it was Lu Su who stepped forward and walked towards him, and saw that it was Lu Su who called him, Zhuge Liang stopped, for Lu Su, Zhuge Liang still has a good impression, after all, he came to Jiangdong, and Lu Su has always been the reception.

Lu Su came to Zhuge Liang's side with a smile on his face, and then said loudly: "Brother Kong Ming's eloquence is really unparalleled in the world, let him Zhang Zhaoyu turn over, he is not Mr. 's opponent, after this battle, the prestige of the main surrender faction has been deeply hit, presumably in a short period of time, they will definitely not be as arrogant as before." ”

Hearing Lu Su's flattering words, Zhuge Liang shook his head with a wry smile, sighed slightly, and Zhuge Liang said helplessly: "Even if you talk about it, you still haven't persuaded General Sun to form an alliance with my lord, the Cao army is coming, and General Sun is still so hesitant, if the fighter plane is delayed for this, what can be done?" ”

Lu Su frowned slightly when he heard Zhuge Liang say this, what Zhuge Liang said was indeed the truth, but after all, he was the lord of the character, Lu Su smiled slightly, and then said: "My lord's matter, as a courtier, it is naturally not good to comment, but it is worth mentioning that the lord has ordered the governor of Zhou to return to Wu County, as long as the governor of Zhou returns to Wu County, everything will be decided, and even if the Cao army attacks, it will not attack in a short time." ”

For Lu Su's words, Zhuge Liang's heart was full of bitterness, Cao Jun would definitely not attack Jiangdong in a short time, after all, there was a Yangtze River natural danger barrier, and Cao Jun was all foot, so now Cao Jun does not have the ability to capture Jiangdong, but Jiangxia is very different, Cao Jun army Chen Bing and Jiangxia border, as long as Cao Cao gives an order, then tens of thousands of Cao Jun army will flock to, really at that time, Jiangxia will really be precarious.
