Chapter 214 Zhuge Kongming is good at looking back
Before Cao Ren left the city to meet the enemy, Zhou Yu had sent Ding Feng to sneak attack Jiangling and completely occupy the city.
Just after a year of war, this originally rich and beautiful city no longer had any citizens and was reduced to a military fortress.
After Zhou Yu entered the city, he was filled with emotions. If it weren't for Zhuge Liang's plan, it would still be extremely difficult for him to capture Jiangling.
Looking at the excited soldiers occupying the city, Zhou Yu greeted them one by one.
The conflict between Taishi Ci and Zhou Tai was also stopped by him with one word.
Maybe it was just a conflict between the two, but Zhou Yu understood that it was a conflict between Sun Quan's faction and Sun Ce's veteran!
Being in it, he was also very embarrassed.
The Marquis of Wu, with blue eyes and purple beard, didn't believe them at all, the old people from Sun Ce's time.
The three old generals have now been completely idle.
If he hadn't won the Battle of Chibi, I probably wouldn't have had the chance to lead the army again.
As for Tai Shi Ci, Wu Hou has been thinking about how to take back the military power in his hands.
However, Taishi Ci's prestige in the army was too high and he was deeply supported by the soldiers, so Sun Quan had nothing to do.
"Ahem!"
Zhou Yu coughed twice, quickly covered his mouth and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.
Fortunately, no soldiers discovered that their commander had contracted the disease a year ago!
"Zhuge Liang...you knew that I was going to die soon, so you came up with a plan for me!"
"My good junior brother, do you want me to teach the Jiangdong generals to get used to Gong Jin's death?"
"Bo Fu... give me some more time!"
The sad autumn wind and passing clouds.
Zhou Yu looked north and captured Jiangling. Xiangyang was right in front of him. He wanted to fight for all the time!
…
Jianye.
Sun Quan once again received good news from Zhou Yu!
Capture Jiangling and defeat Cao Ren!
The commander-in-chief under his command is so capable, which makes his lord who failed to attack Hefei look so useless!
"Wu Hou!"
Zhang Zhao cupped his hands and said: "Gong Jin has been fighting for a year! Now that he has occupied Jiangling, he can be considered a success!"
"If the fight continues, all the major families in Jiangdong will complain more than just a few words."
Sun Quan frowned and said: "Zi Bu, Gong Jin said in his heart that as long as he is given another ten thousand troops, Xiangyang can be conquered, and all the rich lands in Jingzhou will belong to me Jiangdong!"
Lu Su stood up and said respectfully: "Wu Hou! Gong Jin's words are reasonable, and I hope Wu Hou will support him!"
"With Xiangyang, Liu Bei will no longer have the opportunity to invade the land of Jingbei!"
"Our army holds the four barren counties of Xiangyang, Jiangling, and Jingnan, so why not give them to Liu Bei?"
Sun Quan nodded, feeling that Lu Su was right.
"Wu Hou! You absolutely must not do this!"
Zhang Hong opened his mouth and said: "Now we, Jiangdong, are sending troops one after another, and Lü Meng conquered Nanhai County. How long did it take and how many troops and horses did it take?"
"On the other hand, Zhou Gongjin is now resorting to military violence, and it took him a year to conquer Jiangling!"
"The people here have been moved away by Cao Cao a long time ago. It is basically a useless and empty city!"
Kan Ze heard this and retorted: "That's wrong! Is Nanhai County fortified? The general guarding Jiangling is the famous general Cao Ren! This place is easy to defend but difficult to attack. If we occupy Jiangling in Jiangdong, we will have the opportunity to threaten Xiangyang!"
Seeing the quarrel among the advisers, Sun Quan looked at Gu Yong.
"Yuantan, what do you think?"
"Marquis Wu, Governor Zhou has captured Jiangling. Can our army hold it?"
Gu Yong smiled and said: "Transporting food is a problem, and we will become a thorn in Cao Cao's side and a thorn in his flesh!"
"In my opinion, it is better to lend Jiangling to Liu Bei! In this way, let Cao Cao and Liu Bei face each other head-on, and our army will be waiting for work!"
"Even if he attacks Jiangling in the future, there will still be a reason for Liu Bei to borrow it and not return it!"
Lu Su was furious and said bluntly: "Marquis Wu, you must not do this! If you lend it to Liu Bei, you will never get it back! Besides, with the talents of Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu, how could they not see such dirty thoughts?"
"Sneak attacks on allies are treacherous! Who will cooperate with me Jiangdong in the future? I hope Wu Hou will think twice!"
Gu Yong sneered and said: "Lu Zijing, you good old man! You gave up Cangwu County, and you still have the nerve to bark in front of Wu Hou!"
Kan Ze retorted: "If you don't want to provide food for the army, just say so! When the late lord Sun Ce raised an army and Zijing sold his family property, what did you do?"
Gu Yong, Zhang Zhao and others were blushing and said nothing.
Bang!
Sun Quan slammed the table angrily, and everyone fell silent for a moment.
"Tzuyu! Then go to Jiangxia as an envoy to do business with Liu Bei as Yuan Tan said!"
"If we can make Liu Bei and Cao Cao fight, we in Jiangdong can reap the benefits!"
"Tell Lu Meng to continue training. I will personally repay the humiliation Liu Mang has brought to him!"
After Sun Quan said this, he stood up directly without giving Lu Su and Kan Ze a chance to speak.
"The alliance is in danger!"
Lu Su sighed: "The Marquis of Wu is not brave enough! If we can capture Jiangling, why worry about not being able to capture Xiangyang?"
Kan Ze stopped Lu Su and told him to stop talking.
"Zijing, the Marquis of Wu wants to take back the military power! Gong Jin and Taishi Ziyi are a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh!"
"General Huang, after the Battle of Chibi, he was also laid off by the Marquis of Wu!"
"Unless they are close associates of Marquis Wu, it will be difficult for others to control the army!"
Lu Su was stunned. He really didn't want to believe that Sun Quan was such a heartless and unjust person!
…
Jiangxia.
Liu Bei worshiped Wu Ju as the prefect of Lingling, expressing his trust in him.
Wu Ju quickly went to take up his post with the arduous task of farming.
Liu Ba continued to be busy in the literacy camp. With such celebrities, the campaign to eradicate illiteracy progressed rapidly.
"Lord."
Mi Fang clasped her fists and said, "Zhuge Jin from Jiangdong is here to pay his respects!"
Hearing this, Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and Xu Shu.
"Tzuyu's coming here must be about Jiangling."
Xu Shu smiled and said: "Kong Ming, do you want to avoid it?"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly and said with a smile: "Don't worry about Yuan Zhi, this is not my brother's intention, I'm afraid it is the suggestion of Gu Yong, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong and other guardian dogs."
Zhuge Jin felt guilty in his heart. Sun Quan's wave of tricks made it difficult for him, a long history man, to talk about it!
"My Excellency, Zhuge Jin, pays homage to Uncle Liu Huang!"
Liu Bei personally stepped forward to help him and said with a smile: "Sir, he is the brother of the military commander, so he is one of our own! No need to be polite, please sit down quickly!"
After that, Liu Bei personally took Zhuge Jin to his seat.
Zhuge Jin was deeply moved. Liu Bei had no pretensions and was really a polite and virtuous corporal.
"I wonder what the purpose of Ziyu's coming here is?"
Liu Bei was approachable, which made Zhuge Jin even more ashamed.
"Uncle Huang... Wuhou believes that Jiangling is of vital importance."
"After the Battle of Chibi, the Emperor's uncle had no chance to fight the Northern Expedition against Cao Cao."
"So, Marquis Wu plans to hand over Jiangling to the emperor's uncle, so that you can have the opportunity to eliminate Cao Cao..."
When Liu Bei heard this, he exclaimed in his heart, "I am an expert. Is there anyone more shameless than my son Liu Mang?"
A trace of contempt flashed in Xu Shu's eyes, Jiangdong Sun Quan really had his good intentions engraved in his bones!
"Uncle Emperor... I wonder what you think?"
Zhuge Jin just wanted to end this awkward conversation as soon as possible and go back to recover as soon as possible!
"Brother, we can help with this."
Zhuge Liang was as gentle as jade. He turned his head and pulled out a move, which made Zhuge Jin a little confused: "Kong Ming, it is clearly Wuhou who is helping you!"
