The world has changed abruptly, Liu Bei has been like a bamboo, Guanzhong has been decided, Xiliang is about to be in the bag, and the power spans the three major states, among which there are more wealthy Guanzhong and Sili.

With the surrender of most of the Xiliang army, coupled with Guan Yu's recruitment of troops in Bingzhou, the total number of troops under his command has exceeded 200,000, and he is still firmly in the position of the first prince in the world.

However, others are not idle, and they are also developing their own ambitions.

Yuan Shu took Sun Jian as the commander of the army, captured the entire territory of Yuzhou, sat on the land of two states, and claimed to be an army of 200,000. However, most of these soldiers and horses are newly recruited soldiers and descendants, and only Sun Jian's department can be called elite.

He then moved the governor's office to Runan County and convened his military ministers to discuss the next strategy.

Strategist Yang Hong took the lead and said: "Liu Bei sits on the land of Sanzhou, and he is the first prince in the world, and the lord cannot compete with him. ”

"Cao Cao has captured Xuzhou, and his troops are in full swing, and he is also a strong enemy. Therefore, depending on the bottom view, the only thing that the lord can take is Jing and Yang Erzhou. ”

Yuan Shu groaned: "If I don't fight Liu Bei, won't he come to attack me?" ”

"Absolutely not, Liu Bei's next step must be Yizhou."

"How so?"

"Liu Bei wants to ask for Qin Shi."

Yuan Shu felt a little relieved when he heard this, although he hated Liu Bei for letting him lose his troops, but he also understood the strength of the Bingzhou army through that battle, and his strength alone could not shake it.

As for uniting the princes of the world to besiege again, not to mention whether these people would agree to send troops, Yuan Shu himself did not dare to do so.

At this time and then, now that Cao Cao, Yuan Shao, and Yuan Shu's territories have begun to border, everyone is worried that the other party will suddenly regret it after they send their troops and turn the military peak to attack them.

And even if the tiger prison is broken and the state is merged, how should the territory be divided, will Yuan Shao be satisfied with the barren state annexation?

How should Cao Cao and Yuan Shu divide their subordinates?

Not to mention, it was not a simple matter to defeat Liu Bei.

This is also the problem faced by the six countries when they attacked Qin, not because the six countries could not break through the Hangu Pass together, but because of their interests, they could not go all out.

Yuan Shu put away his thoughts and looked around at everyone: "Do you think you should attack Jingzhou or Yangzhou?" ”

General Ji Ling took the lead: "The last general proposes to attack Jingzhou, otherwise Liu Biao's Jingzhou army will always threaten Nanyang." ”

Sun Jian retorted: "Liu Biao is a famous person for a while, and he has already won the support of the Jingxiang clan, and it may not be easy for the lord to break it." ”

"Yangzhou Liu Miao is not good at using troops, and the Jiangdong Shi clan is not satisfied with the dispatch, although they occupy the vast land of Yangzhou, they cannot be mobilized, and the last general proposes to break its weakness first."

"As for General Ji Ling's worries, the lord can rest assured that the last general only needs 30,000 elites to capture Jiangdong."

Jiangdong is the foundation selected by Zhou Yu and Lu Su for the foundation of the Sun family, with the Yangtze River moat as a barrier, the population is rich, the grain and grass are sufficient, and the world can be taken when entered, and one side can be divided when retreating.

"Really?" Yuan Shu was also shocked by Sun Jian's bold idea, even if Liu Jian was not good at fighting and could not control the entire territory of Yangzhou, he still had an army of nearly 100,000 under his command.

Even if you are a descendant of your grandson, it will be difficult to attack a city with 100,000 defenders with 30,000 people.

Unless the grandson is resurrected!

Yuan Shu said tentatively: "Wentai, will 30,000 soldiers and horses be too few?" ”

"The last general dares to make a military order."

"But I can't live without you!"

Yuan Shu's heart was hesitant at this time, he was worried that Sun Jian would lose the battle and lose his troops in vain.

I was worried that Sun Jian would win the war, but he would not be controlled after entering Jiangdong, that would be the loss of soldiers and horses.

When Sun Jian heard this, he secretly said: Gong Jin and Zijing guessed correctly, Yuan Shu really won't let people go easily, even if he only needs 30,000 troops, he still can't dispel Yuan Shu's concerns.

Fortunately, the two had another strategy.

"Lord, I can't hide it, I have been fighting for many years, and I have already had countless dark illnesses on my body, and I am preparing to recuperate for a while. This battle is not for the last general, but for the dog. ”

"If the lord can trust the dog, he might as well take him as a general, if he is defeated, he will be willing to lead the army."

This is the strategy that Zhou Yu and Lu Su came up with, with their father as a hostage, it is enough to dispel Yuan Shu's concerns. Sun Jian stayed by Yuan Shu's side, pretending to indulge in wine and lowering Yuan Shu's vigilance.

After Sun Ce gained a firm foothold in Jiangdong, Sun Jian tried to get out again.

"Bo Fu?" When Yuan Shu heard that it was Sun Ce who led the troops, he couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Sun Ce was no less fierce than his father, and this was what he saw with his own eyes. This time to capture Yuzhou, Sun's father and son contributed a lot.

And with Sun Jian by his side, he didn't dare to stand on his own, otherwise he would kill his father and let him bear the name of unfilial piety.

Yuan Shu was about to agree, but saw Ji Ling sneering and said, "Let a stinky child serve as a general, wouldn't it make Liu Miao laugh at the lord shamefully?" ”

When Sun Ce, who was standing behind his father, heard this, he immediately sneered: "I don't know who was unfavorable in the first battle, and in the end, I have to rely on me, a stinky child, to break the deadlock." ”

"You!"

Ji Ling was furious, but he couldn't refute it.

Sun Jian scolded: "Bo Fu, don't make a mistake, General Ji Ling is also your elder no matter what he says." ”

These words seem to be teaching Sun Ce a lesson, but in fact, they allude to Ji Ling's incompetence and live to be a dog.

Yuan Shu sighed secretly, the reason why he could only choose generals among Sun's father and son was because there were too few generals under his command who were good at fighting, and even fewer could take charge of themselves.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but start to envy Liu Bei a little, why are there so many fierce generals under this guy's command?

Liu Bei: Open the hanging!

The more Yuan Shu thought about it, the more upset he felt, and immediately drank a few people, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, take Sun Ce as the general and lead 30,000 troops to attack Jiangdong." ”

……

"Sun's foundation is complete!"

When Lu Su and Zhou Yu learned that Yuan Shu had agreed to let Sun Ce lead the troops, they said in unison.

They don't seem to be worried about whether they can win against Liu Xuan, or, in their opinion, if they can't even win against Liu Xuan, how can they beat Liu Bei?

"But how will my father get out then?" Sun Ce was also not worried about whether he could defeat Liu Xuan, but was afraid that his father would not be able to get out.

Sun Jian smiled with relief, patted Sun Ce's shoulder, looked at the eldest son who was already standing side by side with him, getting taller and taller, and couldn't help but sigh: "You have grown up, and the burden of the Sun family will be handed over to you in the future." Fight this battle well, don't lose the face of the Sun family. ”

"Father's ......"

As for the question of whether his father can get out, Gong Jin has already left a clever plan. With his addiction to wine, Yuan Shu lowered his vigilance and waited for an opportunity to get out. ”

Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu, who smiled slightly: "Not bad." ”

In fact, there is one more thing that the two have not said, that is, Sun Jian is ready to die. If you can't get out in the end, you can exchange your own body for Sun's inheritance, and the deal is worth it.

Lu Su seemed to have seen the clues, but he didn't break it.

Those who achieve great things are not informal.

Sun Ce couldn't understand it, not because he was ignorant, but because he respected his father too much and didn't dare to disobey his words.
