Chapter 225: Sparks flying out
This time, Gu Yong and Guo Tu came from the north and south respectively. It was an accident and a clever accident. But Lu Su had his own clever arrangement.
"This mansion was originally arranged for Liu Bei by Liu Pi. It is very spacious and comfortable. It is a coincidence that the two adults came. Before this, there were already Mr. Yi, a native of Jingchu, and Mr. Cao's account.
Man Chong, Mr. Man, has arrived first. The house is very lively at the moment."
One of the two little officials in charge of the guide said kindly.[
"Jingchu Liu Biao?"
"Cao Cao?"
Gu Yong and Guo Tu's expressions suddenly changed slightly, and they felt very sick in their hearts.
Let’s not talk about the dispute between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao for the moment. Everyone in the world knows that it is a fight to the death.
There was also an extraordinary grudge between Sun Ce and Liu Biao. When Sun Ce's father, Sun Jian, was still alive, he was a general under Yuan Shu. He was ordered to attack Jingchu, but was killed in a surprise attack by Liu Biao's general, Huang Zu, the prefect of Jiangxia.
Sun Ce was only a teenager at that time. He took away his father's body in tears and defected to Yuan Shu. In the end, he had nothing. But the young man who had nothing at that time has now become the lord of Jiangdong, with millions of people from Wu and Yue, and is powerful.
His hatred for Liu Biao became increasingly difficult to suppress. Zhou Yu annexed Baqiu in preparation for attacking Huang Zu, the governor of Jiangxia.
Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are fighting to the death, and Sun Ce and Liu Biao are enemies.
Guo Tu and Gu Yong under these two people's accounts were naturally very unhappy when they heard each other's name, but this was just a personal emotion and feeling.
A more profound question emerged with this little official’s kind reminder.
For Guo Tu, if Lu Su of Runan is won over by Cao Cao, it will be a very heavy loss for Yuan Shao. On the one hand, Cao Cao can further reduce Xu Du's defense troops and mobilize the extra troops to Hebei
to attack Yuan Shao. On the other hand, Lu Su can mobilize 10,000 elite troops to go to Hebei to resist Yuan Shao.
Suddenly, Cao Cao's elite troops may have increased by 20,000. But if Lu Su was acquired by Yuan Shao, then it would be a completely different situation.
This is a trade-off, and the relationship is very important.
Just like Zhang Xiu's defection to Cao Cao, Cao Cao's power greatly increased. This time, Yuan Shao absolutely does not want what happened to Zhang Xiu to happen again.
Subconsciously, Guo Tu felt that he should increase his bargaining chip to win over Lu Su. But what kind of bargaining chip should be used? Official position? Gold and silver? Or promise?
Guo Tu was deep in thought.
Similar to Guo Tu, Gu Yong also felt this way. However, Sun Ce's position and surrounding situation were different from Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao was competing with Cao Cao for supremacy, and Sun Ce wanted to take revenge on Liu Biao. But now that Sun Ce was strong enough, it was impossible to quickly destroy Liu Biao, and the internal pressure was too great.
Therefore, Sun Ce needs to expand his power. If he can win over Lu Su, he can get closer to Huainan, thus increasing his power greatly. On the contrary, if Lu Su is won over by Liu Biao, if Liu Biao expands northward, he will suppress Sun Ce's development.
momentum.[
This one goes up and down, which is also very powerful.
Gu Yong also felt in his heart that the price would be increased.
At the same time, both of them were first-class wise men. Now that they no longer had time to enter the city, the clerks were secretly happy for the warm reception. Seeing Lu Su's arrangement, they had guessed what Lu Su was thinking.
