Chapter 606: Three-Point Argument
"Chen Jue? That's a great guy. Maybe you can really solicit it. Wu Jing said thoughtfully.
Sun Quan saw that Wu Jing was beating Chen Jue's idea, and shook his head slightly,
"Powerful is powerful, and whether the mind is right or not is the most important thing. If the mind is not right, the more powerful it is, the more dangerous it is. ”
To put it simply, Chen Jue's father and son are the kind of people who can share wealth and wealth and belong to the icing on the cake. It's not that they are capricious and can't afford to take on big responsibilities, but the Chen family father and son are completely self-interested, they think it's better to stay with you, then they will do their best to help you, but if they think there is a better choice, they will not hesitate to betray you! Compared with these people who know the times, Sun Quan prefers foolish and loyal people, of course, not only Sun Quan, many princes are expected to have similar ideas. People's hearts are separated from their bellies, who wants to guard against this and that all day long.
At least in this period, the comprehensive strength of the Sun family is not as good as Yuan Shao, and the orthodoxy of the country is not as good as Cao Cao, so Sun Quan does not dare to easily reuse Chen Qi's father and son.
Speaking of which, Sun Quan stopped the topic and got down to business.
"How? How is Yuan Shao doing over there? It's impossible for us to find out, right? ”
"That's impossible! Know yourself and know your opponent, and win all battles. Since ancient times, the Sun family has always attached the most importance to intelligence gathering. As soon as Yuan Shao's main army moved, we immediately got the news. Wu Jing immediately said, "According to reliable information, Yuan Shao has already moved the army from Guandu to the east along the Yellow River, and it is self-evident what the purpose is!" ”
"Zhongmou, do you need to transfer troops from Jiangdong? Otherwise, with our current manpower, even if we add the remnants of Yuan Shu and Lu Bu who have been recruited, they will definitely not be able to hold it. Wu Jing said in a deep voice, Yuan Shao is indeed too powerful, and with the power of the four northern states, few people dare to speak lightly against him.
"Jiangdong has always had the trouble of Shanyue, and the last time we went out, we had already taken away what we could take. The rest are the most basic city guards, and if they move again, I'm afraid it will give Shanyue a chance to take advantage of. Sun Quan shook his head.
"Do those Shanyue still dare!" Wu Jing immediately snorted coldly, this time is different from the past, the Sun family is so powerful now, Shanyue doesn't weigh it, it's good that the Jiangdong Army didn't take the initiative to kill them in the mountains, they still dare to make trouble by themselves?
"The people of Shanyue are simple and the most susceptible to incitement. They themselves may not necessarily make a move, or even seize this opportunity, but do you think our enemies will let go of such a good opportunity? Uncle, you can't gamble on this kind of thing, and you can't mess up in the rear, otherwise, the front-line soldiers have no intention of fighting. Sun Quan reminded.
"This, you're right, it's me who didn't think it through." Wu nodded, and then, his eyes flashed, "Then, I can only borrow troops from your eldest brother?" ”
This time to deal with Yuan Shao, it was not a small force to borrow, and asking Sun Ce to borrow troops meant that Sun Ce had to temporarily abandon his plan to attack Jingzhou.
Although from the perspective of the overall situation of the Sun family, it seems that it is better to keep Xuzhou, which has already been obtained, than to attack Jingzhou, which may not be able to be defeated. But this kind of thing, not to mention that it is easy to cause friction between Sun Ce and Sun Quan's brothers, let's just say that those generals under Sun Ce probably won't agree.
Who doesn't want to make a difference? Why should they give up the good situation in Jingzhou?!
It was precisely because this matter was very sensitive that Wu Jing did not mention this possibility at first. In contrast, Wu Jing is more willing to transfer troops from Jiangdong, which certainly increases the risk, but at least it will not exacerbate the contradictions.
Sun Quan glanced at Wu Jing, what Wu Jing considered, did Sun Quan think about it?
"Uncle, do you think this kind of thing can be done? Besides, far water can't save near fire, and even if that's the case, I'm afraid it won't solve any problems. Here in Xuzhou, it's still up to us. Sun Quan said.
"On our own? How to keep? What to keep? Wu Jing couldn't help but say. Do you really think that Yuan Shao's side is full of shrimp soldiers and crab generals, but there are many people? Yuan Shao's ability to defeat Gongsun Zhan, a white horse general on the same level as Sun Jian, is enough to show that Yuan Shao's combat effectiveness is strong, not to mention that Yuan Shao has now incorporated Gongsun Zhan's army!
"If you can't keep it, then you won't keep it, uncle, like that Chen Jue, you take the territory too seriously. Today's war depends on military strength in the short term, the people's will in the medium term, and the national strength in the long term. Taking advantage of this Xiapi flood, I naturally transferred the grain stored in Xuzhou for many years back to Jiangdong, and now even if Yuan Shao gets Xuzhou, he will not get any benefits in a year or two. In addition, through disaster relief, I have also gathered a lot of people's hearts, and these invisible things are bound to be useful when looking to the future. Sun Quan said, "Moreover, the overall situation in the world will not remain the same. Among the princes, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Don't look at Yuan Shao wanting to fight us now, once we are weak, even if Yuan Shao doesn't turn around to fight Cao Cao, Cao Cao doesn't dare to let Yuan Shao continue to grow, at that time, I believe Cao Cao will also take the initiative to come to us to unite. ”
The posture of the Three Kingdoms, Sun Quan knows better than everyone in the world. Therefore, after listening to Chen Qi's words, Sun Quan did realize that he didn't think too much about it at first, but he didn't take it too seriously, because the future will not be as alarmist as Chen Qi said. Even if Yuan Shao and Cao Cao were united, it would be impossible for them to turn their faces until the Sun family was completely destroyed. When one side finds out that the situation is not right, it will immediately unite with the Sun family against the other side.
"So, just don't keep it?" Wu Jing was dumbfounded, he finally took Xuzhou, and he hadn't been proud for two days, so he was really unwilling to give up Wu Jing like this.
No matter how bad it is, no matter how bad it is, it must be like Cao Cao at that time, you can't let Yuan Shao steal the fruits of your labor casually, and leave him a mess full of holes.
"Don't worry, this battle won't be fought for a while. It won't be long before Yuan Shao is afraid that he will send a messenger to talk to us about the conditions first, which is called saluting first and then soldiering. Sun Quan said with a smile, "Moreover, Yuan Shao still has difficulty choosing." ”
"Difficulty choosing?" Wu Jing expressed puzzlement at Sun Quan's new words.
"It's indecision, looking ahead and thinking too much. In the past, Gongsun Chan was the enemy, so he only wanted to fight Gongsun Chan. But now, Cao Cao is with us, and he wants to pick one to fight, I'm afraid Yuan Shao will have to think about it. Sun Quan explained. And with this time for Yuan Shao to ponder, maybe a lot of variables will happen, and even after Sun Quan's system is updated, a new round of cards will be prepared for Yuan Shao.
"Does this still need to be pondered? Now that we are obviously more powerful than Cao Cao, is it possible for Yuan Shao to leave us alone? Wu Jing couldn't help but say.
"On the surface, of course, this is true, but there are also prerequisites for combining vertical and horizontal, long-distance and close-range attacks. Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, the problem is that their territory is close together. Yuan Shao can't be stupid enough to deal with us by himself, he will definitely ask Cao Cao to send troops too, and after Cao Cao sends troops, Xu Du is empty, do you think Yuan Shao won't be moved? Sun Quan said, "Unless it is a cold mouth, otherwise, it is too difficult for two people to cooperate wholeheartedly." ”
