Seeing that Guan Hai did not object in person, Sun Quan knew that he had acquiesced. So, Sun Quan directly said his proposal,

"General Guan only needs to surround Beihai, let Beihai Xiangkong hand over the books in his house, exchange them with me, and I will give you the formula of Fu Shui."

"What a joke!" Guan Hai immediately asked, "Kong Rong is a descendant of Confucius, what is the difference between letting Kong Rong hand over the family's collection of books and cutting off the lifeblood of the Kong family." Unless he kills his whole family, how can he compromise on this issue. Are you trying to make me bear the infamy of the whole world! ”

Regarding Guan Hai's remarks, Sun Quan was noncommittal, but said unhurriedly,

"There are as many risks as there are, and there are so many benefits. It's not just a matter of Fu Shui here for me, why don't General Guan think about it and consider the feasibility of attacking Beihai. ”

"Attack the North Sea?" Guan Hai's eyes flashed.

The nature of the Yellow Turbans in the later period is actually very different from the Yellow Turbans in the early stage, the Yellow Turbans in the early stage are really attacking the city, and the Yellow Turbans in the later stage basically belong to the category of thieves, they may also attack a certain territory, but they are often more for plundering than occupying. If someone calls, then run, and if no one calls, then it will be chic for a while. It would be better if the guards in that place were instigated and offered money and food before the fight started.

Therefore, to rob the North Sea, Guan Hai thought about it, but to capture the North Sea, Guan Hai did not think about it at all. Now, Sun Quan opened up a train of thought for him, and Fu Shui's conditions also inflated Guan Hai's ambitions, Guan Hai suddenly realized that why can't he also be a prince and fight for hegemony in the world?! Lay down the North Sea, and then take the North Sea as the foundation, the North Sea side is close to the sea, there is no need to worry about the enemy on the belly and back, and there is plenty of food and grass, a typical place to rise!

"First of all, Beihai is a very small force, the north is Gongsun Zhan's territory, the south is Tao Qian's territory, Beihai is in the gap between the two major forces, and there is no backstage, and if you lay down Beihai, it will not touch the interests of others, and it is the most suitable territory to attack." Sun Quan analyzed for Guan Hai, "That's right, Kong Rong is a descendant of Confucius, and he is a famous contemporary Confucian, it is precisely because of this that no one has risked the world's condemnation to attack Beihai, as long as Kong Rong does not provoke others, no one will take the initiative to provoke him." General Guan also took this into account just now. But has General Guan ever thought that your Yellow Turbans believe in the Taiping Tao and Taoism rather than Confucianism, which is a matter of great disapproval to others, and to you, it is just a battle of ideas. As long as the banner is clear, this issue is not to be worried, the people of the world want to hate, and the one who hates is Zhang Jiao, not the general. ”

Good guy, after saying this, Sun Quan even admired his eloquence, and he was almost moved, let alone Guan Hai?

"Why do you want me to attack the North Sea?" Guan Hai asked cautiously. That's right, he was moved, but it was precisely because of his heart that Guan Hai was more vigilant. Guan Hai doesn't want to be used as a gun by Sun Quan in vain, for example, if Sun Quan has a grudge against Kong Rong, Guan Hai went to destroy Kong Rong, and finally Sun Quan repented, Guan Hai didn't get Fu Shui, but Sun Quan took revenge, this kind of good thing for cheap others, Guan Hai is not willing to do it.

"Didn't you say it, I want the Kong family's collection of books." Sun Quan replied.

Guan Hai's eyes narrowed,

"What do you want the Kong family's book collection for?"

"It's a secret, so please forgive me for not telling you." Sun Quan shook his head, "I know General Guan's concerns, but in fact, there is nothing to worry about. First, what good is it for me to repent? Do I think it's fun? Let you go to attack the North Sea? In addition, if I want to harm you, I will directly let you attack Yuan Shao and attack Gongsun Zhan, wouldn't it be better? Second, even if I really regret it in the end, General Guan will take Beihai as a base area, which is not a loss, right? Moreover, the Confucian family's collection of books is so popular that General Guan uses it as a bargaining chip to trade with other princes in exchange for money and grain, what can't be exchanged? ”

As he spoke, Sun Quan looked at Guan Hai and fiddled with a pair of sincere eyes.

Guan Hai looked at Sun Quan carefully for a long time, and suddenly said,

"I don't think you're like the Sun family."

"Oh?" Sun Quan raised his eyebrows.

"It's like a guy who can play tricks." Guan Hai continued.

Sun Quan shook his head and smiled,

"This is not a compliment to our military heirs."

"I have to admit that you managed to convince me. Even intuitively, I feel like you're taking advantage of me, but I'm willing to take a gamble on it. Guan Hai said to Sun Quan, "However, I have one condition. ”

"I want to hear about it." Sun Quan motioned to Guan Hai and said.

"Until I conquer the North Sea, you must not tell anyone else, including the Holy Maiden, the recipe of the runic water." Guan Hai said in a deep voice.

Sun Quan smiled,

"General Guan, don't worry, this is my biggest capital at present, if you are stupid, I will easily tell others."

Guan Hai stared at Sun Quan,

"That's why I'm willing to work with you!"

Guan Hai knew that Sun Quan was very shrewd, so he wasn't sure if he could get the rune water formula from Sun Quan. However, Guan Hai at least believes one thing, if even he can't get it, it will be even more impossible for others!

In this way, Sun Quan happily accepted another free helper.

The most important reason why Sun Quan has successively negotiated terms of cooperation with Zhang Ning and Guan Hai is that at the moment, Sun Quan does not want to be distracted by these two people because he has to be wary of these two people at any time, and the most urgent thing at present is to find his father Sun Jian, and to have a few more helpers, it is naturally the best for Sun Quan. Secondly, it is the layout of the future.

Guan Hai just thought that Sun Quan was using him, but he didn't think at all that Sun Quan was likely to harm him. Earlier, about this point, he was brought over by Sun Quan lightly, Guan Hai would never have imagined that once he attacked Beihai, Liu Bei, an inconspicuous special "little person" nearby, would inevitably send troops to Beihai to help!

The Battle of Beihai is related to the life and death of Guan Hai, the direction of the Yellow Turban, Kong Rong, Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and a character that Sun Quan cares about very much - Tai Shici. Although Sun Quan has not carefully laid out some specific details, no matter what the final result is, Sun Quan will profit from it.

······

I don't know if it's God's favor, on this day, Sun Quan finally discovered an important clue! In fact, opportunities are always left to those who are prepared, whether it is Yu'er or Zhang Ning, they are far less experienced than Guan Hai in the wild, and some inconspicuous clues can only be discovered by old rivers and lakes like Guan Hai. It is precisely because Sun Quan has been involved in Guan Hai that he can get Guan Hai's help and have the current results.

Under the leadership of Guan Hai, Sun Quan and the others followed the inconspicuous traces, getting closer to the truth little by little, and finally, in the evening of that day, they found a fire that had been left behind in the past few days!

At that moment, Sun Quan's tears burst out of his eyes. Even if he knew very well that this didn't mean anything, even if he knew that the more he cared, the easier it would be to be coerced by Guan Hai in turn, but Sun Quan still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Without taking any breaks, Sun Quan marched as fast as he could!
