After hearing this, Sun Quan was shocked and said, "Although Yuyi did not attack the Eastern Wu, with Liu Bei's 550,000 troops, Jiangnan was also in danger!" At this moment, someone came out to the steps and suggested, "I have an idea, you can
Relieve this crisis!”
When Sun Quan and Zhuge Jin looked at it, the man was Zhao Zi, a senior doctor.
Sun Quan quickly asked, "What are your good ideas?"
Reply: "For the sake of the present, I can only ask for help from Cao Wei. The lord can write a letter, let me as an envoy to meet Cao Pi, the emperor of Wei, and Chen said that it was so powerful that he could attack Hanzhong, and then Shu.
The troops will feel dangerous, and the attack will collapse!"
Sun Quan nodded and said, "This suggestion is very good. Go immediately, but when you go to Cao Wei, you must not lose face of Eastern Wu. Be tough and not humble yourself!"
Zhao Zi bowed and said, "If there is any fault, I am willing to jump into the river and die immediately. How can I have the face to meet the elders and fellow villagers in Jiangnan?"
Sun Quan was very happy and immediately wrote a memorial, willing to submit to his sanctions, so he asked Zhao Zi to arrive in Xudu overnight and met the Grand Marshal Jia Xu and other bureaucrats.
Jia Xu was originally Yu Yi's master and the largest underground leader in Xudu City. Later, the matter was revealed and Xiaoli had to leave, so he saved his strength. However, he always paid attention to the political situation of the Three Kingdoms. After Cao Pi ascended the throne, Jia
Xu has been planning how to help Yuyi kill Sima Yi and how to seize greater benefits for him.
When he heard the envoy of the Eastern Wu asked for a meeting, he simply met and asked him to ask for it himself.
Jia Xu believed that Liu Bei of Shu proclaimed himself emperor and led more than 500,000 troops to attack Dongwu, which was unwise. He divided 200,000 troops to Yuyi, which was the best opportunity to seize power, so he wrote a private letter.
The letter was sent to Yuyi overnight.
On the second day, Jia Xu went out to submit a letter and asked: "The Eastern Wu sent Zhao Zi, a senior doctor, to present the memorial."
After hearing this, Cao Pi smiled and said to everyone: "This is for the reason for retreating to the Sichuan army." After that, he let him enter. Zhao Zi knelt on the ground and bowed, and then handed the letter to his close ministers.
Cao Pi finished reading the book and asked, "What kind of person do you think is the master of your Eastern Wu?"
Reply: "Smart, wise, and talented master!"
Cao Pi laughed and said, "Did you praise Sun Quan for being too amazing?"
Reply: "I didn't praise our masters for too many. Wu Hou used Lu Su to select talents from ordinary people. This is his intelligence. He selected Lu Meng from them. This is his wisdom. He will arrest Yu Jin.
After living there, he did not execute him. This was his benevolence and righteousness. After attacking Jingzhou, the soldiers were not bloody and allowed the local people to surrender. This was his wisdom, occupied the natural danger of the Yangtze River, his great talent, and bent over to His Majesty, it was his talent.
From this point of view, isn’t my master a smart, wise, and wise master?"
Cao Pi smiled and said, "So what is the knowledge of the master of Wu?"
Reply: "Our master has tens of thousands of warships in the Yangtze River and millions of soldiers and horses. He has selected talents and ambitions. He has rarely had free time. He read a lot of books, read all history books, and listened to his teachings.
, no less than a scholar who finds a book to copy excellent sentences in it."
Cao Pi said: "I am going to attack the Eastern Wu, can I?"
Reply: "Big countries have soldiers to attack, and small countries have policies to resist!"
Cao Pi asked again: "Is Wu afraid of Wei?"
Reply: "There are millions of powerful troops in Wu State. As a defense, how could Jiang Han be afraid?"
Cao Pi said: "How many people are there in Dongwu like you?"
He replied: "There are eighty or ninety people smarter than me, and the same as me, and the number of cars on board is not clear."
Cao Pi sighed: "You sent our Wei Kingdom to the Eastern Wu and fulfill your mission. You are very competent!" So he issued an edict, ordering Taichangqing Xing Zhen to enthrone Sun Quan as King of Wu and add Jiuxi. Zhao Zi thanked him and left.
Doctor Liu Ye advised: "Now Sun Quan is afraid of the troops of Shu, so he came to surrender. In my opinion, let Shu and Wu fight. This is the opportunity for God to destroy them. Now if a general is sent, he will lead him.
Tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, cross the Yangtze River to attack, Shu attacks his outside, and we attack his inside, Wu will definitely perish. In less than a few months, after the destruction of Wu, Shu will end all the way. Why
Don't you go and plot earlier?"
Cao Pi said: "Since Sun Quan surrendered to me with etiquette, if I attacked Dongwu, I would lose the mood of those who wanted to surrender to me in the world, so your suggestion cannot be adopted!"
Liu Ye advised again: "Although Sun Quan was a bit talented and wise, he was only the former general of the cavalry of the Han Dynasty. The position of Marquis of Nanchang was very small and had little power. He was also in awe of the Central Plains. If he was granted the throne,
It's only one step away from Your Majesty. Now Your Majesty believes that their false surrender and even appoints you as king is probably a great addition to the tiger."
Cao Pi smiled and said, "Not that. I don't help Wu or Shu. It depends on the battle between Wu and Shu. If a country is destroyed and a country is left behind, what difficulties will be there? I have decided.
Then, don’t persuade him again!" So he ordered Taichangqing Xing Zhen and Zhao Zi to hold the throne and go directly to Dongwu.
At this time, Sun Quan was gathering civil and military officials to discuss how to deal with the attack of Shu Kingdom. Suddenly, soldiers came in to report that it was Emperor Wei Cao Pi who was named king and should come to greet him in person.
Gu Yong advised: "The lord should claim to be the general, and he should not accept the rewards from the Wei State as the lord of Jiuzhou."
Sun Quan said: "Pei Gong accepted Xiang Yu's reward because of current affairs. Why should he retreat now?" So he led all civil and military officials out of the city to greet him. Xing Zhen believed that he was on the angels of the country and did not get off the car when he entered the city gate.
When Zhang Zhao saw this, he was furious and said, "Does he not take the land of Jiangnan seriously?"
Xing Zhen was a little scared, so he got out of the car and met Sun Quan. The two of them took the same car into the city. Suddenly, one of them cried loudly behind the car and said, "We cannot be willing to fight to the death, and to annex the State of Wei for the sake of our master, and to destroy the State of Shu, but
Isn’t this a great humiliation to let the master be rewarded by others?”
Everyone looked at him and the person who spoke was Xu Sheng. After hearing this, Xing Zhen sighed: "It seems that the situation in Jiangdong is special. All the generals are like this. They will not be willing to be under others all."
In this way, Sun Quan was rewarded, and all civil and military officials came to congratulate him, ordered some beautiful jade and pearls to be packed up, and sent people to Wei State to thank him.
At this time, he came to report in detail, saying that Liu Bei brought his own troops, as well as tens of thousands of elite soldiers led by the barbarian king Shamoke, as well as the two soldiers of the Han generals Du Lu and Liu Ning, advancing on both land and land, with a huge momentum and a waterway army.
Having arrived at Wukou, the soldiers on the dry road arrived at Zigui.
