Three days later, in the Mingde Hall of Jianye of Eastern Wu, Sun Quan and all the civil and military forces were deliberating, and the atmosphere in the whole hall was dull, no one spoke, only the sound of Sun Quan flipping through the bamboo slips

- A piece of information was put on the table, Shuzhong sent 700,000 pings, Zhang Fei was the vanguard, Mei Changsheng was the deputy general, and Liu Bei personally took command of the expedition, accompanied by Zhao Yun and Ma Chao, the army marched towards the White Emperor City, and the table tennis pointed directly at Jingzhou!

With this information, Sun Quan looked at the ministers below who bowed their heads and were silent, and was very angry in his heart, Liu Beijing poured out of the nest at this time, making it clear that he was going to work hard, but he still underestimated the affection of the Taoyuan brothers

"Report!" At this moment, the herald Ping came in with the Immortal Letter again!

Sun Quan came back to his senses and ordered someone to hand it over - look, but it was Liu Bei's requisition letter, accusing Sun Quan of treachery, sneaking up on Jingzhou, and injuring Guan Yu, if it wasn't for Mei Changsheng taking the risk to save him, I'm afraid that his surname would not be guaranteed, and the three brothers would share honor and disgrace, and this revenge would be avenged

Sun Quan put down the letterhead, sighed lightly, and said, "Now that Liu Bei is leading an army of 700,000 to advance by land and water, and wants to fight me to the death, what is your best strategy to retreat from the enemy?"

Zhang Zhao, who was the leader, stood up when he heard this, and said, "Lord, Liu Bei's army is coming, and there are fierce generals such as Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, our army is difficult to resist, and Cao Jun is covetous, you can't meet the battle, quickly send an envoy to sue for peace!"

"My lord, the words of the cloth are bad," the military general - the one who stood up to speak was the new metropolitan governor Lu Meng, since the acquisition of Jingzhou, Lu Meng's status under Sun Quan has also risen sharply, and the general's style is full of confidence and stability, "As the saying goes, Ping Pong will block, and water will cover it!" Although Liu Bei has an army of 700,000, according to his subordinates, he is just arrogant, and the Shu army has come from afar, and he has started in a hurry, so he must be short of food and grass, and I have more than 200,000 troops in Jingzhou, and I have a favorable geographical advantage, so why be afraid of him?"

"Words!" Before Sun Quan could speak, he heard Zhang Zhao shout angrily, "General Lu just won a battle, and then his eyes were empty-eyed? Do you know the power of the five tiger generals under Liu Bei, who can be in my Dongwu except Gan Xingba? Just Huangkou children dare to boast of such a Haikou?"

When everyone heard Zhang Zhao say this, they couldn't help but nod their heads, Zhang Fei and these people are all enemies, and they have experienced a hundred battles, how rich is their experience? How can the 200,000 people in Jingzhou be worth Liu Bei's 700,000, even if there are no 700,000, it is estimated that it will not be less than 500,000!

Lu Meng seemed to have expected Zhang Zhao to say this, and calmly replied, "The words of the military master are also reasonable, but our army has a favorable location and people, if we show weakness without a fight, won't it make the world laugh?" And the lord has just been on the court and made peace with Cao Wei, if he asks Liu Bei for peace again, wouldn't it be two sides and three swords? If Liu Bei refuses to give up and has to make inches, what will happen?"

He looked at everyone and said with a smile, "The generals in Shu, we are the only ones we are afraid of, only Zhuge Liang'er, and now Liu Bei will stay in Chengdu because Zhuge Liang prevented him from going out, which is the best opportunity for my Dongwu, and this is God to help me Dongwu."

Bu Qi frowned and said, "Although Zhuge Liang has gone on an expedition at the end of the year, but this time Mei Changsheng is Zhang Fei's deputy general, this person can not only save Guan Yu, but also completely annihilate Pan Zhang's army, and can retreat Cao Zhen, which should not be taken lightly!"

- Timei Changsheng, then heard a slightly hoarse voice shouting angrily, "Mei Changsheng handed over to me, before the two armies, I will definitely take his head and pay tribute to Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong!"

The one who spoke was a white-faced young general, it was Ling Cao's son Ling Tong, he usually said that he had a very good relationship with Pan Zhang, but he didn't expect to be killed by Mei Changsheng, so he naturally wanted to avenge his good brother

Kan Ze saw that everyone was arguing, and said, "My lord, according to the detailed report, although Liu Bei's army poured out of the nest, but Hanzhong and Yong'an were at the end of the move, it can be seen that preparations have been prepared for a long time, if our army goes to war with Liu Bei, Xiangyang now has Cao Ren's 100,000 troops, and although there are 200,000 ping horses in Jingzhou, do you dare to transfer them all?"

If the two sides fought, the consequences would be really unimaginable, and Hefei Shouchun would be the general of Wei State, Zhang Liao, and the battle would make the hearts of the Eastern Wu people float, which was even more terrible than Cao Ren

Thinking of this, everyone's opinions are inclined to negotiate peace, most of these officials in Dongwu are from local big families, and the most important thing is to be able to protect their own interests, and once the situation of the Sun-Liu Union is destroyed, the pattern after breaking the balance is no longer something that those people can control!

Lu Meng sighed helplessly in his heart, although he had the confidence to fight with Liu Bei's army, but Eastern Wu was indeed not suitable for multi-front battles, and he was not as good as Zhou Yu after all, how could his influence compete with Zhang Zhao's old ministers, even if he was unwilling, but he also understood that he could not fight anymore at this time!

When Sun Quan saw that Lu Meng bowed his head and retreated to his original position, he understood that the situation could not be changed, so he had to ask, "Then with everyone's opinion, how to make peace with Liu Bei?"

Zhuge Jin replied, "Lord, if Liu Bei came to avenge Guan Yu, he must have hatred in his heart, and his subordinates are willing to go and inquire, and they will definitely not embarrass me!"

Sun Quan nodded and said, "Xiao Yu's words are reasonable, Kong Ming is in Chengdu, and your identity is the most suitable."

Zhuge Jin groaned slightly, and said, "In order to show sincerity, you can send Mrs. Shangxiang back, let Mrs. Shangxiang reunite, and release all the captured generals, and..."

"What else?" Sun Quan saw Zhuge Jin hesitate and asked

Zhuge Jin said, "Mi Fang and Fu Shiren also want to send them back!"

Sun Quan frowned when he heard this, and said, "In this way, doesn't it chill the hearts of the generals?" Hand over these two people, who else is willing to come to my Soochow in the future?"

"Lord, my subordinates feel that Xiao Yu is reasonable!" Bu Qi also agreed with Zhuge Jin's case, "Guan Yu's defeat has a great relationship with these two people, if these two people are sent back, then it will show that our army has also lost Pan Zhang and Ma Zhong, and the two generals, they will be evened out with each other, and then let Xiao Yu explain the benefits of Shu and Wu union, I believe Liu Bei will agree!"

Sun Quan still felt unsure, if it was him, he would not agree so easily, and frowned, "Won't Liu Bei pursue the loss of Jingzhou?"

Kan Zeyan said, "The lord can rest assured, Jingzhou was originally borrowed from Liu Bei's land, but he refused to return it for a long time, and now that he has passed away, this matter should also be settled, Liu Bei hates the person, but he is a betrayer, offering Mi Fang and Fu Shiren, he will definitely be able to dissipate the half anger in his heart, treat him coldly, and see what he wants, let's discuss it again, Liu Bei has been in business for decades, how can he not know his pity?"

Sun Quan breathed a sigh of relief at this time, nodded slowly, and said, "Okay, this matter will be hard for Xiao Yu to go in person, and Xiao Ming will immediately rush back to Jingzhou to arrange defense, and at the same time pay attention to the movement in the north!"

Although he was forced to sue for peace, Sun Quan felt a sense of relief at the moment, and ordered with a sigh of relief, "Everyone disperse, but you must be prepared for war at any time!"

Everyone agreed—and the voices dispersed, only Zhang Zhao was still standing in place, and Sun Quan asked, "What else is the matter with Xiaobu?"

Zhang Zhao said, "Zhuge Xiaoyu understands that the Shu army is powerful, and it is possible to go to Liu Bei on the grounds of Tonghe, and the lord has to guard against it!"
