Chapter 417 Mrs. Wu's Exhortation
"Quan'er."
After settling down the little guys, Mrs. Wu came to Sun Quan and said in a tactful manner.
"Although right and wrong are often not what the world sees. I have seen Dou Yuru (Yu'er), but the evil path is a strange path after all. After all, it does not mean that others don't care. If people know that you have collusion with the Demon Sect, who will be willing to join you at that time? Without the support of these people, how can you control the world?"
This is also the reason why Mrs. Wu has not told Sun Quan about Yu'er for a long time, because once this matter is mentioned, Mrs. Wu will inevitably advise Sun Quan.
"Quan'er, I didn't mean that you would completely break off your relationship with Dou Yuru, and I didn't want you to be a kind-hearted person. But you have grown up and are smart. You must grasp the degree in this, and don't lose the deeds." Mrs. Wu said bitterly.
To be honest, Sun Quan was very unhappy to hear this. Yu'er is a person with temperament, so why is Sun Quan not a person with temperament? From the beginning to the end, Sun Quan puts closeness and alienation in front of benevolence, righteousness and morality. Yu'er has come to this point because of Sun Quan. How could Sun Quan alienate Yu'er for this? Even though what Yu'er is doing now makes Sun Quan very embarrassed, Sun Quan never had any idea of blaming Yu'er.
Mrs. Wu now wants Sun Quan to alienate his relationship with Yu'er and let Sun Quan avoid contact with Yu'er in the future. How could Sun Quan do such a thing? Of course, Mrs. Wu is right to consider the problem from the perspective of her mother, but Sun Quan is the most stubborn and willful one in the entire Sun family.
However, Sun Quan had to admit that Mrs. Wu's words were very reasonable. This is the limitation of the times and could not be reversed by Sun Quan's own efforts. Sun Quan had no prejudice against the Demon Sect, but people in the world were prejudice against the Demon Sect, especially those noble gentry, who disdained to be with the Demon Sect at all. Why didn't Cao Cao even have a decent counselor in the early days? Because scholars claim to be a pure stream, Cao Cao's family was from a eunuch and was divided into a turbid stream, so these noble scholars were unwilling to join Cao Cao. Even Cao Cao was like this, let alone the Demon Sect that was even more despised by scholars?
In this era, education is monopolized. If you march and fight, you can also promote a general from the grassroots, but if you manage the rear, handle internal affairs, recruit troops and grow grain, can you also promote talents from the grassroots? If it was so easy, Xun from Cao Cao would not be so valuable. Although Cao Cao issued so many orders to recruit talents, no matter who comes from the background, those who can really play an important role in important positions are the children of those big families.
Sun Quan is a modern person and has a more thorough understanding of these things than ancient people. Therefore, even though he was born in a military family, Sun Quan always believed that internal affairs were very important. Of course, if he could do his best and win the country with unstoppable momentum, it was certainly the absolute force that was most important, but once the two sides could not compete on the battlefield, then what was compared is consumption and what was compared is national strength. If you can't afford to consume, the national strength is not enough, and in the long run, you will naturally fall into a disadvantage. Sun Quan believes that in the late Three Kingdoms in history, why did Wei win the country with the strongest victory lies in national strength?
For this reason, Sun Wu needs not only a Xun and Xun. You may also be able to use your personal charm to snare it, but if you want to ensure the stability of the entire rear, you want the rear to provide support from the front line continuously, and if the soldiers on the front line don’t have to worry about the wife and children in your family fighting bravely, the Sun family needs the help of countless gentry. At least, you must also ensure the internal circulation so that the political affairs will not be seriously paralyzed due to someone’s departure or accident.
Everything was not something that Sun Quan could change with his own strength. Yu'er might be able to quickly become one Lu Meng after another in a short period of time (only in terms of martial arts), but she was unable to create a group of real scholars in a short period of time. Of course, not all of the Demon Sects had never read books, and hundreds of schools of thought were so magnificent. These people are indeed talents and have outstanding talents in some aspects, but these "some aspects" are at least in Sun Quan's view, at least in Sun Quan's view, they do not include governing the world.
"Mom, you're right."
Sun Quan took the initiative to agree to Mrs. Wu's words, but before Mrs. Wu could be relieved, she heard Sun Quan continue to say,
"But for us now, it's really a worry. In the current situation, who is willing to help us except my father's old subordinates? If we want to retake Jiangdong and even fight for the world, we will inevitably have the secret support of such a force." Sun Quan said, "One day, even if the population is solid, it will be my Sun Quan who colludes with the Demon Sect, not my Sun family and the Demon Sect. As long as the eldest brother does not interfere in this matter, I will fight against some shameful things."
For a moment, Mrs. Wu smiled helplessly, pointed at Sun Quan and scolded,
"It turns out that stubborn boy from the past! Mom knew that you couldn't be obedient so easily."
"Mom~~" Sun Quan grabbed Mrs. Wu's hand, "Didn't you say I've grown up? The child has his own sense of responsibility."
"I hope this is the case." Mrs. Wu shook her head and sighed, "It would be great if you brothers can make me feel less careful."
"Don't worry, my mother, the future will only get better and better!" Sun Quan said firmly.
At this time, Sun Quan was thinking about assisting his elder brother Sun Ce. As long as Sun Ce could maintain his integrity, there would naturally be countless kind-hearted and righteous people to come to vote. Sometimes he was far-sighted and was ambitious, always thinking about what to do if Sun Ce really died. If he made two preparations for everything, he would easily lose sight of the other. Now Sun Quan just didn't want to leave any way out for himself, and he vowed to keep Sun Ce!
Moreover, Sun Quan has already made a preliminary plan for how to deal with the various difficulties he is currently facing. As long as he continues to implement it firmly according to his plan, all current problems will be solved.
And the Liyang in front of him is the first step of Sun Quan’s plan!
Yangtze,
In this era, it can be called a real natural danger. Although it is not difficult to cross the river, it is even more difficult to cross the Yangtze River by an army of tens of thousands. Not to mention that it is very time-consuming, a crowd of people blocked the riverside and their targets are particularly obvious. Once they are sneak attacked by the enemy, they will basically be in danger of being wiped out.
It can be said that when crossing the river to fight, you must be very cautious and never allow any mistakes. At this time, the army often does not play a big role, and a surprise attack army of thousands of people can usually have miraculous results.
If the surprise attacking army could cross the river and occupy the opposite ferry as a guard at the first time, so that the army behind them could cross the river safely, then the battle would basically be considered to be half of the victory. As for the other half, in addition to the comparison of strength between the two sides, we had to consider the dilemma of being unable to replenish supplies after crossing the river.
This is why, since ancient times, it has been difficult to fight in the river, and there are often confrontations. (To be continued)
