Chapter 156: Sun Quan, take over the title

Cao Ang wants this effect, even if Huang Zhong is not there now, there are few people around, and Sun Quan does not dare to do it.

Then Cao Ang even ordered the crossbowmen guarding outside the post house: "Retreat, this is Jiangdong, it is Wu Hou's territory, of course public security is his business, let Wu Hou's soldiers come to protect." ”

Soon, Cao Ang's crossbowmen were gone, without any mud and water, without any doubts.

Of course, the eighteen guards were still there, four were in the open next to them, and the rest were all hidden in the dark.

Sun Quan knew that Cao Ang was putting pressure on himself, and asked Sun Quan to send people to surround the post house, which showed Cao Ang's self-confidence.

At this time, if you cringe, the deterrent effect will be reduced.

Therefore, Sun Quan could only recruit his own people and surround the post house, which was just a posture of protection.

When Sun Quan's men surrounded the place, Cao Ang stood up.

"Wu Hou, since you don't want to drink, let's talk about other things."

Sun Quan was still at the bottom of the steps at this time, Cao Ang stood condescendingly, Sun Quan wanted to go up when he was invited to drink just now, but Cao Ang didn't seem to want to wait for him to agree.

Here, this should be a challenge, it must be about tonight's events.

Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu beside him, Zhou Yu nodded, implying that he was fine, and everything had a rhetoric.

You Cao Ang was attacked, and we also lost a lot of people in Dongwu, all of them were sneak attacked, if you want to blame Shanyue, if you don't accept it, you let the prime minister's million army go to the mountains to exterminate it?

"Ziyu, I'm sorry for tonight's incident, I ......"

"What's going on tonight? Oh, you say these corpses, they're dead, and what are they doing? ”

I didn't expect Cao Ang to not want to mention tonight's incident at all, isn't that more serious?

Sure enough, Cao Ang said slowly: "Prime Minister Cao, the million-strong army has been deployed in the area of Chibi Wulin, I want to ask Wu Hou, what do you want them to do?" ”

"Ziyu, please make it clear, what can they do here?"

"You can come to fight, or you can come to be a guest, it depends on your Wu Hou's attitude."

I understand, this is asking for money, but I didn't expect Cao Ang to talk about this by bypassing the matter of being attacked tonight, which is really clever.

In this way, tonight's incident has become the default, which means that Cao Ang knows that you did it, and he doesn't bother to listen to your quibbles.

Instead of saying that half a day is useless, let's talk about the price.

"Then Jiangdong naturally hopes that they are here as guests."

"Yes, Jiangdong is so hospitable, it didn't disappoint me, just see if you can enjoy the guests."

"So how do you have fun?"

"Our army has come from afar, and we naturally have good expectations for Jiangdong......

Cao Ang said, took out a silk book, and knew that it was a condition without thinking about it.

Although paper is not cheap in this era, silk is still more expensive, and it is suitable for official documents.

Holding the silk book, Cao Ang didn't move, and it was not easy for Sun Quan to walk over to pick it up.

He is Wu Hou, Cao Ang is just a general with five senses, there is no reason to let Wu Hou meet him.

At this time, Zhou Yu wanted to go up to pick it up, no matter what, he would take a look first, but he stood up and blocked Zhou Yu.

"This ......"

Sun Quan was embarrassed, he had tens of thousands of people present, and Cao Ang dared to humiliate him in public like this?

The rudeness just now can be endured, after all, it is a private activity, and the two are also relatives on the surface, so they don't have to be so particular.

But now that the submission of the silk book is such an official matter, you Cao Ang is still doing this, not afraid of Sun Quan's hard work?

Cao Ang was really not afraid, his voice was amplified to the point that the whole audience could hear it: "Don't worry, there is one more thing." ”

"Wu Houqing has made meritorious contributions to suppressing mountain bandits, and he has been in Jiangdong for many years, and the prime minister is very moved."

"It is not possible to deserve such merit without reward, and it is impossible to manifest the law."

"So, the prime minister promised to crown Wu Hou as the general of Pingyue, and use this title to commend his merits for many years."

"It's all written, and I won't read it anymore, Sun Quan, come and pick it up."

This attitude made Sun Quan almost unable to hold back, and Zhou Yu on the side was about to draw his sword, his eyes staring at Sun Quan.

Once Sun Quan has an order, Zhou Yu will immediately order someone to attack, no matter how much combat power he Cao Ang has, he has to fight hard to humiliate people like this, but it is Wu Hou who has been in Jiangdong for many years.

Sun Quan is going up to take it, it is not a matter of the size of the official position, but represents his attitude of submission.

Cao Cao sealed, and if you take it, it means surrendering to Cao Cao.

"Lord, you can't pick it up!"

Zhou Yu was almost anxious on the side, and the soldiers of Soochow were all on the scene, so if he confessed it, his morale would be gone.

But can Sun Quan refuse?

This is a step for him, not to say surrender directly, it is already very face-giving.

If he didn't express his surrender, then how could Cao Cao withdraw his troops, Sun Quan should have thought of this.

Since he wants to make peace, then this pass should not be avoided, Sun Quan wants to drag it out, but tonight Cao Ang took advantage of this opportunity not to let him drag it down and forced him to express his position.

"Wait, don't move!"

Sun Quan first looked at Zhou Yu and suppressed Zhou Yu's possible impulse, after all, it was the identity of the lord, and Zhou Yu had no choice.

Then, Sun Quan really went to take it, accepted this title, and let the world know his compromise.

Cao Ang nodded with satisfaction, and Cao Ang, who was covered in blood at this time, was very oppressive.

"Thank you Prime Minister for the reward......"

"Speaking of rewards, then Jiangdong's hospitality should also be reflected, it is written on it."

Cao Ang didn't say anything polite to him, and there were indeed requirements for property on this silk book, and Sun Quan couldn't help but glance at it.

"So much?"

"Jiangdong people are outstanding, where are these too much, this is too much, isn't it not hospitable enough?"

Sun Quan scolded in his heart, who wants to be so hospitable and ask for so much money, Cao Cao has no problem raising this million-strong army for several years, this is going to hemorrhage.

Cao Ang also reminded: "Actually, you don't need to take these out immediately, don't you have to pay money and food every year...... By the way, it is naturally good that you can return to the Great Unification, Jiangdong is not private, and handing over property year by year is not what a minister should do? ”

Of course, not only these possessions, but also taxes.

Although it is said that these things written in the silk book do not need to be taken out at one time and can be given in installments, it is indeed too much.

But Cao Ang also said, why do you keep so much money and food for yourself, do you want to support private soldiers?

It's all at this point, and Sun Quan doesn't want to pinch his nose immediately to admit it, so he has to struggle, at least it makes people feel that he is struggling.

"Such a big deal, let's talk about it after we have discussed it, right?"

"You discuss yours, this has nothing to do with me, I'm leaving tomorrow, Wu Hou will take care of it."

Pressing again, Cao Ang gave an ultimatum, and it came to this point, if you don't agree, you will go to war, and there is nothing to say.

And what is the situation now, there is news that Chai Sang was captured by Cao Cao again, and Cao Ang dared to play such a play even in Jingkou, which fully shows that he has understood Sun Quan's hole cards.
