Chapter 539: Change in Decision-Making

"Hahaha, uncle, isn't this a good result!" Sun Quan laughed and said, this battle, although the time is very short, but the fight of Sun Quan is full of spirit, which makes Sun Quan more or less realize why his eldest brother Sun Ce is willing to fight, not necessarily because of his ambition, but to win the battle, which really makes people feel very accomplished and happy, this feeling is addictive.

Of course, the premise that there will be fun is because it is difficult for Sun Quan to win this attack, as the attacked party, even if Sun Quan loses this time, many people will take it for granted. Unlike the last time he beat the thief Yan Baihu, if Sun Quan loses that time, it is estimated that many people in the world will scold Sun Quan for being incompetent, and the victory or defeat is not fun for Sun Quan, but pressure.

Back to the topic, the reason why Sun Quan was so happy this time, in addition to winning the battle and cracking the enemy's conspiracy, what made Sun Quan the happiest was that he captured Chen Deng.

Some names just have so much power. If Chen Deng is allowed to escape, even if there is not a single soldier left around him, Sun Quan will be cautious, for fear that Chen Deng will come out and attack him again one day. And now, arresting Chen Deng will not only greatly benefit Sun Quan's control of Guangling, but may also blackmail Chen Deng's father, Chen Qi.

A family, if it wants to inherit, depends on people; If you want to rise, you rely on talent. And Chen Deng is an indispensable talent of the Chen family! Sun Quan believed that even if the Chen family hated Sun Ce for destroying Chen Yu, as long as Chen Deng was in his hands, he would grasp Chen Qi's biggest weakness. Since Chen Qi would betray Lu Bu for Cao Cao, why wouldn't he betray Lu Bu because of Sun Quan?

In the future, whether it is Cao Cao or Sun Quan who will get Xuzhou, the core key may be in this Chen Deng! Moreover, Sun Quan also has an idea, he has always wanted to find someone to experiment, and Chen Deng happens to be a very suitable candidate.

"Zhongmou, the arrogant soldiers will be defeated. Do you know that many people have a very good first half of their lives, but one negligence leads to a catastrophe? Wu Jing reminded Sun Quandao.

Wu Jing didn't want to pour cold water on Sun Quan when he was happy, but he had too much expectation for Sun Quan. It's not that Wu Jing is more optimistic about Sun Quan than Sun Ce, but the Sun family already has a Sun Ce who is not afraid of death, and there is no need to have another one, in contrast, a smart, calm and wise Sun Quan is easier to stabilize the current situation in Jiangdong.

"Don't worry, uncle, Xiang Yu is a lesson for all our Jiangdong boys, and we will not go down the back road of Xiang Yu." Sun Quan said, and before Wu Jing could nod his head with relief, he heard Sun Quan say again, "However, if you want to surpass Xiang Yu, you must have the courage that ordinary people can't have." Nowadays, there are many heroes, and I dare to say that in three or five years, it will be difficult to have a chance to rise. If you let this Chen Deng run away today, our plan to occupy Guangling may be delayed by him for a year, and after a year, this Xuzhou may not be able to indicate who it will be! ”

Wu Jing shook his head and smiled,

"I can't talk about you, you're always so reasonable. However, my uncle still wants to remind you that the coach has the meaning of being the head coach, and once something happens to the head coach, the top and bottom are panicked, and no matter how good the situation is, it may be ruined. So, sometimes, there are some risks that you think you should take a risk, so let it go, no problem, but the real risk is the people below, not yourself, understand? Wu Jing said in a low voice.

Dangerous things, let the men do it. Wu Jing's words are certainly ruthless, but it is indeed the same truth. There is a saying in the art of war: capture the thief and capture the king first. Why is there such an art of war? The side also proves how big the role of a commander-in-chief is. Chen Deng brought more than 1,000 people this time, just imagine if Sun Quan fell into Chen Deng's hands, then what is the use of Wu Jing bringing more people? The coach has been arrested, can he still let go and fight?

Therefore, it is really important to give priority to ensuring your own safety, not all the time, you need to take the lead.

"Uncle reminds me that I will pay attention." Sun Quan nodded seriously. Of course, then again, if it weren't for the fact that Sun Quan, who had always been cautious, had simulated the skills once in advance, how could he have taken risks this time? It's a pity that Sun Quan can't tell Wu Jingxi about these reasons.

"This is Chen Deng?"

Wu Jing suddenly looked at the person tied to Sun Quan behind him and said.

"That's right, this is the young man who almost ruined our good deeds." Sun Quan nodded.

Youngster?

Wu Jing smiled, compared to this Chen Deng, you Sun Quan seems to be younger!

"What are you going to do with him?" Wu Jing asked.

"Good food and drink." Sun Quan replied.

Wu Jing was stunned, this is not the treatment that ordinary prisoners should have. Don't look at how optimistic Sun Quan is about Chen Deng, but in the eyes of Wu Jing and others, Chen Deng, just like Sun Quan just said, is just a young man, he hasn't shown himself much, and he hasn't proven himself much. So seeing Sun Quan treating this Chen Deng like this, Wu Jing thought that he had other intentions.

"Okay."

Nodding, Wu Jing didn't ask much, and immediately ordered.

······

meanwhile

Sun Ce traveled west and went to the area of Peng Lize. At the beginning, Sun Ce naturally pursued under the banner of taking advantage of the victory and continued to attack Liu Xuan, Zhenrong and others who had fled here, but it was a coincidence that Liu Xuan actually died of illness at this time. In Chaisang, there was no leader in an instant, and this transportation hub was naturally seized by Sun Ce.

So now, in front of Sun Ce, there are three more ways to choose.

First, from Chaisang to the south, attack Yuzhang, Luling and other places that are currently completely controlled by Hua Xin due to the death of Liu Xuan.

Second, continue to the west and attack Huang Zu's Jiangxia. Huang Zu is already an old opponent of the Sun family, Sun Jian fought with Huang Zu back then, and Sun Ce also fought with Huang Zu at the beginning.

Third, to the northeast, attack the Lujiang River on the north bank of the Yangtze River. Lujiang is currently in the hands of Yuan Shu's subordinate Liu Xun, that is, when Sun Ce laid down Lujiang, Yuan Shu promised to give Lujiang to him, but it turned out to be given to Liu Xun, so Sun Ce was also quite unhappy with Liu Xun.

"Since Liu Xuan is dead, Yuzhang doesn't have to care about it, Hua Xin is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and he will surrender soon." Zhou Yu analyzed, "As for Lujiang, when I was still with Lu Su, it was easy to do, but now I have missed the opportunity." Moreover, once we attack Lujiang, Yuan Shu will be attacked on three sides, which will inevitably accelerate his defeat, and once Yuan Shu is destroyed, we will face Cao Cao and Lu Bu directly. In my opinion, it's better for Yuan Shu to help us drag Cao Cao and Lu Bu now, and we will take the opportunity to capture Jiangxia and even Jingzhou! ”

"Hahaha, Gongjin, I was the same as you thought at first. Look at this, though. Sun Ce suddenly took a letter to Zhou Yu.

"Oh?"

Zhou Yu took the letter with a little doubt, what could influence Sun Ce's decision?
