Sun Quan was stunned by Lu Su's words. Obviously, he had never thought about what Lu Su said. In Sun Quan's view, if he really abandoned his weapons and surrendered, Cao Jun would definitely not kill him. After all, Cao Jun wants to appease people's hearts. He is the master of Jiangdong and killing him is harmful.
But now it seems that what Lu Su said does not make sense. Cao Jun is so powerful that Jiangdong's big and small families are planning to surrender. If he really surrenders to Cao Jun, his situation will be really precarious after Cao Jun stabilizes the situation in Jiangdong. Who will be at that time? Dare to avenge yourself
Taking a deep breath, Sun Quan's expression became much calmer. However, judging from the situation in the meeting hall just now, the main war faction is obviously weak. Even with his own participation, it is still difficult to resist the main war faction. After all, there are many wealthy families in Jiangdong. He said he wanted to surrender to Cao's army because Cao "Cao" was obviously safer than Sun.
Although both Cao Cao and Sun have committed massacres of aristocratic families, Cao Cao is obviously more benevolent compared to Sun Ce. Although Sun Quan is not as domineering as Sun Ce, hatred is something that will happen if the accumulated hatred of the previous generations is not repaid. Accumulated on the next generation. Although Sun Quan and Sun Ce are brothers, the result is still the same. After all, it is Sun Quan who is in charge of Jiangdong now. So the object of hatred of the family naturally falls on Sun Quan.
Seeing Sun Quan frown, Lu Su immediately knew what Sun Quan was thinking. He coughed softly and Lu Su suddenly said, "The lord has surrendered a faction that is powerful just by relying on the lord and several generals. It is obvious that he is weak alone, but one person has his own power." Only your power can turn things around."[
Sun Quan's eyes suddenly lit up after hearing what Lu Su said. Without Lu Su saying anything, Sun Quan knew who the person Lu Su was talking about was undoubtedly Zhou Yu. Looking at the entire Jiangdong civil servants and generals, I am afraid that only Zhou Yu has such ability in the entire Jiangdong. Who else is more prestigious than Zhou Yu?
Zhou Yu and Sun Quan both admired and resented this person. What he admired was that Zhou Yu was a versatile man in both civil and military affairs and was an effective helper in governing the country. But what he resented was that Zhou Yu was the sworn brother of his elder brother Sun Ce. Because of this, Sun Quan did not dare to reuse Zhou Yu easily. people
When Sun Quan took charge of Jiangdong, he naturally hoped that he could do as well as his elder brother. However, Sun Ce's figure was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Faced with such a situation, Sun Quan naturally wanted to get rid of Sun Ce's influence. It was precisely for this reason that Sun Quan gradually alienated some important generals under Sun Ce.
However, although Sun Quan deliberately alienated Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu's achievements had to make Sun Quan very afraid of him. In addition, Sun Quan only controlled Kuaiji, Wujun, Danyang, Yuzhang, and Luling counties at the beginning, and their remote and dangerous places were not yet completely covered. The heroes of the world are scattered in various states and counties, but they have not established an interdependent relationship with the Sun family. At this critical moment, the first people to come forward to support Sun Quan were Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu, Lu Fan, Cheng Pu and others. Zhou Yu brought people from outside the country. The soldiers came to attend the funeral and stayed with Sun Quan in Wu County as the central guard. He had a large number of soldiers and treated Sun Quan with the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers. Together with Zhang Zhao, the chief minister, they were in charge of military and political affairs.
It can be said that if it were not for Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others, his position as the Lord of Jiangdong would obviously not be secure. Now Zhang Zhao is the leader of the main surrender faction. It is precisely because of Zhang Zhao's existence that the main surrender faction has become unprecedentedly powerful. Therefore, now there are only Only with the support of Zhou Yu can the main battle faction be evenly matched with the main surrender faction. Moreover, Zhou Yu is in charge of Jiangdong's army and horses. Only with his support can Jiangdong resist Cao Cao.
But Sun Quan was a little hesitant. The faction he was surrendering to now was unprecedentedly powerful, and would Zhou Yu also surrender? Sun Quan didn't feel confident about this.
Lu Su obviously guessed Sun Quan's thoughts again. He smiled slightly and said in a deep voice, "My lord, you can rest assured. Governor Zhou is a very smart man. How could he not see through the pros and cons of surrendering to Cao Jun? Besides, Governor Zhou is a very smart man." The counties in Jiangdong were captured by General Sun and Governor Zhou together, so how could he watch helplessly as all Jiangdong surrendered to Cao's army? As long as the lord orders to invite Governor Zhou back to the Governor of Wu County, he will naturally be able to intimidate others."
Sun Quan nodded. Although Sun Quan didn't like Lu Su's remarks very much, he obviously had no way to refute that the counties in Jiangdong were indeed fought by his elder brother and Zhou Yu. Zhou Yu obviously had a deeper feeling for Jiangdong than Zhang Zhao and others. Zhou Yu will definitely not give up Jiangdong.
After pondering for a moment, Sun Quan finally made a decision in his heart. I can't help but decide my fate. Since he wants to replace his brother's position in the hearts of the people in Jiangdong, he must make achievements that are not weaker than his brother. At the moment, Cao Jun's attack is obviously the best. As long as he can defeat Cao Cao, who else in the world will underestimate him? But if he wants to win the battle, then Zhou Yu is the most important role in this battle because Zhou Yu is in charge of Jiangzhou's army.
"Send me an order to order Zhou Yu to rush back to Wu Commandery quickly," Sun Quan said loudly. At this moment, Sun Quan already had some clarity in his heart that he definitely could not surrender like a bereaved dog. Even if Cao Jun died, he would die vigorously and deservedly.
After hearing Sun Quan's words, a smile suddenly appeared on Lu Su's face. He pondered again and then said: "My lord is wise, but there is one more thing I hope my lord will agree to."
Sun Quan was stunned for a moment and then asked: "What's the matter? Just say it." With the decision in his heart, Sun Quan was obviously in a much better mood.
"My lord, no matter what, it is not child's play to say that Cao's army is powerful and has an army of hundreds of thousands, so I hope that my lord can put aside the past grudges and unite all the forces that can be united to fight against Cao's army." Lu Su said in a deep voice. Even if the Sun family exerts all the strength of Jiangdong, there is no way to defeat Cao's army. An army of more than 100,000 people marched against
Sun Quan groaned and frowned. Sun Quan knew that what Lu Su was talking about was Liu Qi and Liu Bei. But how many troops did Liu Qi and Liu Bei have? Even if they formed an alliance with the two, how much benefit could it bring to the Sun family?
Seeing that Sun Quan was still very hesitant, Lu Su spoke again and said: "My lord, although Liu Qi is mediocre, Liu Bei is a hero. Cao Jun has been fighting for many years and has almost won every battle. In these years, Cao Jun has not been defeated several times, and Liu Bei's victory has always been among them." Figure, so Liu Bei is a figure."
"Furthermore, all of Jiangxia are Jingzhou's elite troops. Although Jiangxia's troops are small, they are capable of conquering and fighting. Our army has worked hard and Jiangxia has not captured Jiangxia for a long time. This is not because our army is not strong enough, but because Jiangxia's Jingzhou army is indeed elite."
Sun Quan's expression obviously changed. It was obvious that he had been a little moved by what Lu Su said. At this moment, Lu Su spoke again: "My lord, actually Liu Bei's military advisor Zhuge Liang has arrived in Wu County a long time ago, but the meeting hall was so noisy, so I didn't I want to seduce my lord immediately"
Sun Quan nodded and then said: "Since Uncle Liu Huang sent an envoy here, I have no reason not to meet him. Let me meet this Zhuge Liang to see what he is capable of. If he can really persuade me to form an alliance with him, it doesn't matter."
Sun Quan and Lu Su discussed for a long time before returning to the meeting hall. When everyone in the meeting hall saw Sun Quan, they finally calmed down. Sun Quan had just left the table angrily. Everyone knew that Sun Quan was really angry. If they continued to argue at this time, It will definitely arouse Sun Quan’s anger[
Sun Quan strode to the main seat and knelt down. Sun Quan said in a deep voice: "This matter is of great importance, so I decided to call back Governor Zhou Yu to hear what Governor Zhou wanted. As for whether to fight or surrender, I will wait until Zhou Yu comes back." make decision"
Hearing this, everyone was silent. Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao were both in charge of military and political affairs. Zhang Zhao was in charge and Zhou Yu was in charge. The surrender of Cao's army was a major event. Naturally, this matter had to be discussed with Zhou Yu. Moreover, Zhou Yu had a close relationship with the Sun family, so he did have the right to speak.
Everyone was talking, but at this moment Lu Su suddenly stood up and said to Sun Quan: "My lord, uncle Liu Huang sent an envoy to Wu County the day before yesterday to ask to see my lord, but I don't know whether my lord has summoned me."
