Sun Quan is not alarmist, Sun Quan understands better than anyone how strong the three-legged stand is. Although it is not the historical Cao Sun Liu now, the situation of Sun Cao Yuan is actually similar, if one of you is strong, then the other two will join forces to deal with you.

Of course, the current situation is actually different, because now the Sun family alone is worth the Cao Yuan family combined.

So why didn't Sun Quan choose to play steadily?

As mentioned earlier, it took too long on the one hand, and on the other hand, Sun Quan found that things did not develop as he expected.

Originally, Sun Quan believed that Cao Cao defeated Yuan Shao in Guandu, and it would not be long before Yuan Shao would become ill, and then Yuan Shao's two sons would fight among themselves, and at that time, Sun Quan could send troops from Xuzhou to share Yuan Shao's land with Cao Cao. By that day, Cao Cao would certainly get half of Yuan Shao's resources now, but he was far from being the opponent of the Sun family, who had reached a higher level! As soon as the three-legged state is broken, it will be difficult for the weak side to hold on.

Well, that's true in the imagination, but unfortunately the plan never catches up with the change. Yuan Shao didn't fall ill, at least now he is still alive, which Sun Quan can be sure of in the spiritual world. This first step has not been achieved, let alone the next steps?

Sun Quan knew that Yuan Shao in history probably couldn't accept the defeat in Guandu, and he was so angry that he couldn't afford to get sick. But now, because of his Sun Quan and because of his Jiangdong, Yuan Shao's strength was weakened for a while, making Yuan Shao not the number one prince in the world, his status is not so high, the fall is not so painful, and the blow of failure will naturally not be fatal.

Since he didn't die at the beginning, Sun Quan naturally didn't think that Yuan Shao would be able to die in a short time, so he had to make another plan.

????????????

On this day, on the small court hall in Jiangdong,

"Lord, Lu Meng sent a letter saying that Guan Yu is leaving."

"The heart is not here, let him go if he wants to go." Sun Quan replied casually, Sun Quan had already expected this result, "Oh yes, bring my red rabbit horse and take it to Guan Yu to see him off." ”

"Lord?!"

"Think twice!"

"Lord, Guan Yu can't let go. Let the tiger return to the mountain, and the future will be endless! ”

"Haven't you, one by one, adapted to where we are now? We stand for orthodoxy and want to go the royal way. Sun Quan said, "There is much help for the righteous, but little help for the unjust." For a Guan Yu, you want to lose morality? ”

"Lord, even if you want to let Guan Yu go, why should the red rabbit horse give it to him?"

"Yes, my lord, I still have so many soldiers in Jiangdong. The sword is given to the hero, where is my Jiangdong boy worse than him Guan Yu? ”

"Self-confidence is a good thing, there is no need to be proud, apart from me, which of you is Guan Yu's opponent? In addition, I, Jiangdong, have always paid attention to rewards and punishments, and if I reward at will, isn't it a mess of the rules? If you want a reward, you can take it yourself! The red rabbit horse is already old, one day you have conquered the north, why worry about not finding a second one! Sun Quan replied, "This matter is so decided, since I have done it, I must do it beautifully, send people to go around to promote it to me, and I must make it known to everyone." Remember, no matter who dares to get in the way, our military law will serve! ”

Seeing that several important ministers did not say anything, the others naturally did not dare to say anything.

"No!"

"Next."

"Lord, there is something wrong with my subordinates." Zhang Zhao is listed.

"Oh?" Sun Quan was a little curious, Zhang Zhao spoke, it must not be a trivial matter, but if something big happened, he Sun Quan would not know in advance?

"It is rumored that the Holy One is preparing to set up another queen." Zhang Zhaodao.

"Ahh。。。。。。h Sun Quan was silent, and then pointed to Zhang Zhao and a few people, "A few of you stay, and if you have nothing else, just step down." ”

The rest left, leaving behind the core of Jiangdong.

"The lord let Guan Yu go, is he going to continue to use Guan Yu?" Zhang Zhao opened his mouth to ask questions, some things are really difficult to say in public, just like Zhang Zhao firmly believes that everything in front of him is not Sun Quan's true thoughts. What is the right thing to help? Sun Quan is not a Confucian, he is a soldier who is really the winner and the king!

"Some things don't have to be so clear. You just need to know that Guan Yu values righteousness, and the more he gives him now, the more he will return to us in the future. You should be able to understand. ”

As soon as Sun Quan's words came out, the faces of Cheng Pu and Han Dang and other generals suddenly improved a lot. Externally, it is a rhetoric, which Sun Quan deliberately wants to reach Guan Yu's ears, and internally, these arrogant veterans still have to be appeased.

Although Yuan Shao suffered defeat in Guandu, he had a lot of capable people and was not easy to deal with; After Cao Cao won Yuan Shao, he freed his hands, which was even more difficult to gnaw; Of course, while Sun Quan is not good at picking on them, the consensus of the world is that Sun Quan is the one who cannot be provoked! Therefore, in the current state, these three are very restrained from each other. At this time, Guan Yu was released, and Sun Quan also saw if he could use this to break the balance. Guan Yu attaches great importance to righteousness, Sun Quan treats him well, Guan Yu is naturally not good at taking Sun Quan in turn, so he will naturally extend the butcher knife to other princes.

"It's just my lord, there is something that surprised me. If Guan Yu really wants to go to the north to find Liu Bei on this trip, he once helped us tie up Yuan Tan, and Yuan Shao can tolerate him? Zhang Hong said suddenly.

"What do you mean 。。。。。" Sun Quan's eyes flashed, could it be.

"Or, Yuan Shao learned from the pain and has the capacity to accommodate people, I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with in the future. Or, Liu Bei is no longer on Yuan Shao's side. Zhang Hong responded.

"This is a timely reminder, you don't say I really haven't noticed, it seems that the direction of the wind has been changing unconsciously." Sun Quan touched his chin.

There is no fighting between the three families of Sun Cao and Yuan for the time being, and now that the Sun family is dominant, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are not willing to accept the status quo, what will happen to them? Naturally, I set my sights on the last few! Only by continuing to annex the weak can we become stronger. Not surprisingly, Sun Quan had already guessed Yuan Shao's purpose of letting Liu Bei leave.

"Then the lord, do you still let Guan Yu go?" Cheng Pu asked.

"Put! The plan doesn't change, no matter where he goes, it's the same for us. Sun Quan replied, "Okay, let's not talk about Guan Yu, I'll keep you here to discuss another matter." ”

Sun Quan looked at Zhang Zhao,

"I'm afraid this thing came directly from the palace, right?"

In other words, this is the rumor released by Emperor Xian, otherwise, Zhang Zhao would not have been able to say it specifically.

The original queen was Cao Cao's daughter, and Emperor Xian didn't bring anyone with him when he escaped from Xu Du. Now that Emperor Xian has sentenced Cao Cao to be a chaotic minister and thief, it is normal to re-elect the queen, so the real key is the queen's candidate!

"What do you say, what does this holy mean?" Sun Quan asked.

Zhang Zhao glanced at Sun Quan,

"My lord, you already have the answer in your heart. The reason why the Holy Lord threw out this news is naturally because he hopes that the lord will take the initiative. Zhang Zhao replied.
