Zhang Zhao is old and well-aged, how can he not see that Zhou Yu is in a bad mood, Zhang Zhao can guess the reason, it must have something to do with the Lu Su outside, it is said that these two used to be good friends, but now they are their own masters.

"Gong Jin, what arrangements does the lord have?"

"Arrangement?" A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhou Yu's mouth: "Lord Zhang, the lord has entrusted you and me as plenipotentiary envoys, that is to say, the result of the discussion between you and me, the lord will admit that the lord has put his net worth and the fate and well-being of the Jiangdong soldiers and the people into the hands of you and me, does the lord still need any arrangements?" ”

Zhang Zhao didn't care about Zhou Yu's aggressiveness, took a sip of tea from the teacup and said slowly: "The lord is the decision-maker, not us, after the lord makes a decision, we will try our best to realize the lord's intentions, and we will decide the fate of the lord!" Why did Gong Jin say this? ”

Zhou Yu was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, this is not easy to refute, it was because he was angry just now, so he said the wrong thing, Zhou Yu's eyes rolled, and he arched his hand and said: "It's a gaffe, don't blame Mr. Zibu." ”

"Where, then, what is the lord going to do?"

"Mr. Zibu, now the situation is not a choice for us, Fang Zhiwen is powerful, the lord can only avoid his edge, all the ministers are also in favor of this decision, everyone has expressed their willingness to follow the lord to the east to create another situation, Mr. Zibu"

"Gongjin doesn't need to be like this, when the lord went, he entrusted the lord to me and others, and failed to keep the Jiangdong foundation, which has already made the old man ashamed and landless, the lord has ambitions, although the old man is old. But it is not far behind. ”

Zhou Yu smiled and nodded: "Mr. Zibu is really a gentleman 1."

Zhang Zhao waved his hand and said: "Although the lord's decision is helpless, it is also feasible, although Yingzhou Island is far away from the Central Plains. But there is no harm from foreign enemies, as long as the Japanese people are defeated, they can be calmly developed to wait for the times to change, this strategy is not different from the strategy of the current lord, the difference is only a location, and there is the attitude of the Jiangdong clan. ”

Glancing at Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao paused and continued: "At that time. The old man thought that this was an opportunity, and with the wisdom of Gong Jin, he should know what the troubles of the lord's henchmen were, right? ”

Zhou Yu frowned: "Confidants? Does Mr. Zibu think that the Jiangdong clan is the real big trouble? ”

"Of course, the greater the power of the clan. The smaller the power of the lord, isn't this matter already clear to the first emperor! Back then, I played against the first protagonist, making full use of the Jiangdong clan to sit firmly in Jiangdong, and then I had to find ways to weaken the power of the Jiangdong clan. Who knows that the great business of the Lord is unfinished. He actually drove to the west first. The lord is young, and he is a newcomer, how can he act in a hurry, so he allows the world to take advantage of the opportunity, isn't this kind of harm a problem in the heart? ”

Zhou Yu's face changed, to be honest, Zhou Yu has indeed always regarded Cao Cao and Liu Bei as the top priority, and he didn't see that Sun Ce's foundation was actually in Youzhou's hands. Second, I didn't see that the problem of the world was too big to be solved, and this was indeed a fatal mistake. Zhou Yu originally had a very high opinion of himself, but suddenly he had a flustered feeling, could it be that he was really that bad!

Lu Su went north and became the winner, he went south, and he was almost a prisoner, Sun Ce was his brother, and with his own help, the territory was getting smaller and smaller, and now he was going to go to another country, but Lu Su relied on his own ability and became a high-level in Youzhou without any foundation.

In such a comparison, Zhou Yu's pride and self-confidence suddenly collapsed.

"Mr. Zibu, if this is true, the opportunity that Mr. Zibu said is"

"Hehe, when you arrive on Yingzhou Island, everyone is considered to be a person without a foundation, the land will be redivided, the power will be redistributed, and the rules will be reformulated, isn't this an opportunity for the lord to re-establish his achievements? Even, some clans that are too powerful can be completely abandoned, or they themselves will not sincerely follow the lord. ”

"This is not unavoidable, but the specific process needs to be very cautious and need to be carefully figured out."

"Naturally, does Gongjin think that landing and gaining a foothold in Yingzhou can be achieved overnight?"

Zhou Yu's forehead couldn't help sweating a little, compared with Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu's strategic vision and political accumulation were still too bad, Zhang Zhao's words immediately dispelled Zhou Yu's arrogance cleanly, and made Zhou Yu honest.

Zhang Zhao did this to prepare for the negotiation, he didn't want Zhou Yu to always have a situation in the negotiation, Zhang Zhao thought that since he had made up his mind, the sooner the negotiation was completed, the more beneficial it would be, and the things that had many extraneous branches and long dreams at night were the most unfavorable to Sun Ce, if these extraneous branches still came from within, it would really be depressed to death

The next day, Zhang Zhao took the initiative to visit Lu Su in Moling's Thorn History Mansion, and officially started negotiations, since the general principle has been set, the bargaining between them is actually nothing to say, let's see what the surrounding princes think about this matter.

It is impossible for people to know about Sun Ce's decision, there are not many people who know about such a secret matter, and these insiders will not take the initiative to leak information to people, but Liu Bei and Cao Cao can't hide it.

In the future, Jiangdong will be nominally managed by Zhu Zhi, but it will definitely implement the policy of Youzhou, which is the same as Qingzhou, Zhu Zhi is just an agent on the surface, and Fang Zhiwen must be in charge of everything behind it. However, Youzhou's policy made many Jiangdong clans feel afraid, so if they were not ready to follow Sun Ce to Yingzhou, they should think about their own retreat, such as taking refuge in Liu Bei or Cao Cao.

As a result, Liu Bei and Cao Cao didn't spend much effort, and they easily got the information they wanted most, and Sun Ce had already decided to make peace with Fang Zhiwen and was ready to withdraw from Jiangdong and cross Yingzhou.

Liu Bei got the news relatively late, after all, it takes time for the information to be sent to Luoyang, looking at the information under the dim oil lamp, the wrinkles on Liu Bei's face became more and more profound, as if carved by a knife, Pang Yuan and Zhuge Jin and others who were recruited waited quietly.

"Hey~ What does Fang Zhiwen want to do?"

Liu Bei's question is very critical, it doesn't matter where Sun Ce goes, what matters is what Fang Zhiwen wants Jiangdong to do.

Zhuge Jin thought about it, but didn't make a sound, but looked at Sun Gan, Sun Gan frowned and was thinking, Zhuge Jin looked at Pang Yuan again, Pang Yuan played with the feather fan in his hand, his face was bamboo, Zhuge Jin smiled faintly, and he was not in a hurry to speak.

"Lord, I'm afraid Fang Zhiwen's purpose is on Cao Cao." Sun Qian finally spoke.

Liu Bei was shocked when he heard this: "So, Fang Zhiwen is worried that Sun Ce will collude with Cao Cao, so he drove him away, is he trying to completely encircle Cao Cao?" １

"It should be so, Fang Zhiwen did not invest heavy troops in Jiangdong, nor did he borrow troops from Wu County and Huiji, so the military significance of taking Jiangdong is not much, but it is more political."

Sun Gan's thinking is still very clear, if Fang Zhiwen wants to make a move in Jiangdong, he will not find Zhu Zhi as an agent, let alone just bring 20,000 cavalry for deterrence.

Liu Bei nodded, looked at Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Jin raised his head and said: "The subordinates also agree with Gongyou's opinion, and I want to add that Fang Zhiwen wants to use Sun Ce's combat power to share the pressure of the Yingzhou battlefield, and at the same time, he can also move Sun Ce, who is vacillating in his political attitude, from Jiangdong and completely block Cao Cao's southbound trade route, so that Cao Cao will be completely locked in a cage, and in the long run, Cao Cao will definitely decline." ”

"Could it be that Cao Cao has a huge territory, and he can't be self-sufficient?" Liu Bei asked.

"Definitely not, if it's just to eat a full stomach, maybe it's okay, but without normal business, where do war horses come from? Where do paper charms come from? Even iron, fur, animal tendons, etc. will become problems, and in the end Cao Cao's military power will decline certainly, if Cao Cao does not fight hard, in the end there is only a dead end. ”

Liu Bei raised his eyebrows: "So, Cao Cao is bad?" ”

"Well, my subordinates think so."

"Not necessarily" Pang Yuan suddenly said, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was on the same page as Zhuge Jin, Zhuge Jin frowned, and did not rush to argue, but looked at Pang Yuan waiting for his next step.

Liu Bei also looked at Pang Yuan curiously, he actually still valued Pang Yuan very much, but at the same time he was deeply guarded.

"My lord, how Fang Zhiwen will treat Cao Cao is actually a complicated issue, Fang Zhiwen's ultimate goal is to eliminate Cao Cao, but at the same time, it is also necessary to eliminate Yuan Shao and my lord, Cao Cao is used to consume our army and Yuan Shao to the maximum, so we must not just think that Fang Zhiwen is simply encircling Cao Cao, Fang Zhiwen's approach will be to force Cao Cao to attack our army."

"Hiss1

Everyone was stunned, Liu Bei gasped even more, if Liu Bei was not sure about this, but Fang Zhiwen definitely thought so, thinking of this, Liu Bei couldn't help but glance at Pang Yuan with appreciation.

"What Fuqing said is very true, in that case, should we object to Fang Zhiwen reaching out into Jiangdong?"

Pang Yuan smiled and shook his head: "We can't oppose this matter, and we shouldn't oppose it, once we oppose it, it may make peace between Cao Cao and Fang Zhiwen, for Fang Zhiwen to force Cao Cao to beat us, or force us to fight Cao Cao, the effect is the same, but for us, Fang Zhiwen is nominally on our side is very important." ”

"Then can we only watch Fang Zhiwen's conspiracy succeed?" Sun Qian asked unwillingly.

"That's not a conspiracy, it's a conspiracy, and we can only win the victory against the conspiracy."

"What does Fuqing mean," Liu Bei asked a little nervously.

"It's enough to defeat Cao Cao militarily, Fang Zhiwen can't go into battle in person, right? Therefore, our alliance with Fang Zhiwen must not be lost1

Liu Bei thought for a while, and then smiled: "Fuqing is really amazing, it's good!" As long as we defeat Cao Cao in a dignified manner, what can Fang Zhiwen do, can he still openly support Cao Cao! Huh"

"My lord clearly sees that we can also use public opinion to block the way for Fang Zhiwen and Cao Cao to make peace1
