Four hundred and eighty fifth chapter should be the day
The meaning of Lu Su's words actually seemed to be the magic of recovery.
Sun Quan originally had complaints against Lu Su in his heart, but when he heard these words, those complaints disappeared immediately.
"Does Zijing have any clever ideas?" Sun Quan asked in surprise.
Lu Su coughed dryly and said slowly: "At this point, it is really difficult for me to resist Yan Liang with my own strength. If I wait until the north changes, I'm afraid it will be too late. In such critical moments, we must use external forces as soon as possible.
It’s up to you to deal with Yan Liang.”
"external force?"
Sun Quan became confused all the time. Looking around, except for the sea, it was Yan Liang's territory. Sun Quan really couldn't think of anyone else who could help save him at this time.
"At this moment, who else can we borrow help from?" Sun Quan sighed.
"Liu Bei." Lu Su said the name decisively.
Sun Quan's figure trembled slightly. For a moment, his spirit seemed to cheer up, but then he fell into despair again.
It is true that Liu Bei had a grudge against Yan Liang, but Xuzhou, which Liu Bei held, was separated from Jiangdong by Huainan, and Huainan now had Zhou Yu's own troops, so how could Liu Bei get past Zhou Yu to save himself.
Of course, Liu Bei could also send troops to attack the front line of Liang State and use the means of surrounding Wei and rescuing Zhao to force Yan Liang to withdraw his troops and return to the north to aid.
But the current situation is that Liu Bei's main force is in Hebei, and he is approaching Yecheng ambitiously. Yan Liang also has tens of thousands of elite troops in Xudu, Suiyang and other places for defense. How can Liu Bei get enough troops?
, to implement the so-called strategy of encircling Wei and rescuing Zhao.
Sun Quan was not stupid. When he thought of this, he felt that Lu Su was making a fool of himself again.
Lu Su seemed to have seen Sun Quan's thoughts and hurriedly explained: "What Su means is, why don't my lord cede Huainan to Liu Bei? When Liu Bei covets the land of Huainan, he will definitely send troops south to take over the counties in Huainan.
And if Liu Bei gets Huainan,
, will pose a great threat to Yan Liang from behind. Even if Liu Bei does not send troops to attack south, Yan Liang will be afraid and will have to send troops to Jiangbei to take precautions. At that time, as soon as Yan Liang's army withdrew, wouldn't we have gained a rare breather?
Opportunity."
These eloquent words only made Sun Quan's eyes suddenly become clear, as if the clouds had been cleared to see the sun.
"Zhou Yu supports his troops with self-respect, and there will be many dissatisfied generals in Huainan. If Liu Bei sends troops southward and legitimately takes over Huainan, Zhou Yu will definitely not be able to resist it. Instead of letting Zhou Yu secede the rule, how can the lord cede Huainan to Liu Bei, and gain from it?
profit."
Lu Su explained again, completely dispelling Sun Quan's doubts and letting him see hope again.
"Zijing's plan is indeed a clever one, but I had a grudge against Liu Bei before. At this time, I am in danger, and I am afraid that he may not be willing to help me." Sun Quan was worried again.
"Liu Bei is a hero. In the face of interests, he will definitely ignore past grudges, and Su is willing to send his lord as an envoy to Xuzhou. He will convince Liu Bei with his sharp tongue."
Lu Su's expression was extremely generous, and his look was even more solemn.
Sun Quan paced in the hall, thinking about it, but he had no other plan. The only solution he had now was Lu Su's plan, which was the only one that could make a difference.
After pondering for a long time, Sun Quan suddenly turned his eyes, patted Lu Su on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "Zijing, you are the person I trust most. The last hope of my Sun family will be placed in your hands this time."
"Don't worry, my lord, Su will live up to my lord's trust." Lu Su was so excited that tears filled his eyes.
The two principals and ministers each had tears in their eyes, and their emotions became more and more generous.
At this moment, footsteps sounded, and a soldier rushed in and shouted: "My lord, the scouts have reported that the rebel general Ling Tongzheng is leading thousands of troops to attack Wujin. The forward is only more than ten miles away from the city.
.”
Sun Quan's expression suddenly changed, but he didn't expect that he had just stepped into Wujin as he moved forward. Before his buttocks were even warmed up, Yan Liang's pursuers came to kill him.
"Yan Liang, this thief, he wants to drive me away!" Sun Quan, who was frightened, said bitterly.
Lu Su said hurriedly: "My lord, without further delay, I would like to ask my lord to retreat to Wu County as soon as possible. Su should take a boat to go north and take the sea route to Xuzhou."
Wujin City is adjacent to the river, and there are many large ships along the river bank. If Lu Su wants to go to Xuzhou from here, he must go east along the river to the sea, and then take the sea route north to Xuzhou.
The situation was urgent, and Sun Quan had no time to think too much, so he asked Lu Su again, and then the two officials parted ways.
On the other side, Sun Quan took his mother Wu, escorted by more than a hundred soldiers and horses, and left Wujin. Wu County continued to retreat along the way.
On Lu Su's side, he left the city and looked north, reaching the river bank. He commandeered a large merchant ship and took a few personal servants with him, and took the waterway along the river.
As the boat sailed further and further away, Lu Su, who was standing on the bow of the boat with his hands clasped behind his hands, looked at the receding south bank of the Yangtze River, his expression was extremely relieved.
"Master, will Uncle Liu agree to save Jiangdong?" the old soldier beside him asked curiously.
Lu Su snorted coldly, "Liu Xuande is determined to fight for the north. If he rashly takes Huainan, it means a full-scale war with Yan Liang. With Liu Xuande's resourcefulness, he will not affect his great cause of fighting for the north just for Huainan.
.”
Hearing this, the old servant was confused and said blankly: "If this is the case, then why does the master still offer this plan to the lord and go to Xuzhou to be an envoy without any trouble?"
"If I don't take this step and leave for Xuzhou, how can I stay in Jiangdong and wait to be buried with the Sun family?" Lu Su gently stroked his beard, with a sly smile in his eyes.
The old servant was at a loss for a while, and suddenly he realized. At this moment, he was shocked to realize that his master had already planned to abandon Sun Quan, and the name of going to Xuzhou as an envoy was just an excuse for him to withdraw.
Looking at the distant river bank, Lu Su's face never showed a trace of shame, but more of a sense of relief.
Since surrendering to Sun Quan, Lu Su asked himself that he had devoted his life to Sun Quan. Even when Moling was besieged and the defeat was certain, Lu Su still did not betray.
It's a pity that Lu Su's opponent is Yan Liang, a wise and brave hero with countless wise men under his command.
Faced with such a powerful enemy, Lu Su felt that even if he was defeated repeatedly, there would be nothing to be ashamed of. Even if it were someone else, he might not be able to do better than himself.
Then Sun Quan, after every failure, put the blame on him, and openly rebuked himself for his incompetence many times in front of everyone.
And every time when he felt desperate, Sun Quan would act as if nothing had happened and continue to shamelessly ask him for advice.
After several attempts, Lu Su had had enough. His loyalty to Sun Quan had been completely wiped away by Sun Quan's repeated accusations.
"Sun Zhongmou, it wasn't me who failed you, but it was you who failed me. Let's just say goodbye. You wish for your own happiness."
After sneering, Lu Su entered the cabin with his sleeves rolled up and never looked back.
…
Moling City.
The four gates, the arsenal, the military mansion left by Sun Quan, and other key places have all been planted with the banner with the word "Yan".
In just a few days, Yan Liang successfully completed complete control of Moling.
The floods inside and outside the city have receded, and most of the Yan troops who entered the city have retreated to the camp outside the city.
Granaries in various places in Moling City have also been opened, and Yan Liang, who has become the new lord, is opening granaries to provide relief to the victims to show the kindness and power of his new lord.
Under the combination of kindness and power, the hostility of the soldiers and people in Moling gradually disappeared, and they soon chose to submit to Yan Liang, the new master.
Yan Liang, who was in charge of Moling, tried to appease people's hearts and sent Huang Zhong, Lu Meng and other generals with more than 20,000 troops to follow Ling Tong and continue to pursue Sun Quan deeply.
In order to undermine the support of the powerful families in Wu County for Sun Quan, Yan Liang ordered Lu Xun and Zhu Huan, two generals from Jiangdong rich families, to lead their troops to Wu County to explain Yan Liang's benevolence and power to the powerful families in order to incite these families.
The powerful men "abandoned the dark to the light" and abandoned Sun Quan.
To calm people's hearts and pursue the remaining enemies, Yan Liang is handling everything in an orderly manner.
That day, Yan Liang held a banquet in his new military palace in Moling City to celebrate the victory of Moling.
During the banquet, high spirits were burning like fire, and all the generals were in high spirits and drank heavily.
When the atmosphere of the celebration banquet reached its climax, Yan Liang, who was excited and happy, took this opportunity to announce two decisions to everyone.
The first decision he made was to change Moling's name to Yingtian.
Although Moling is a place of royal aura, its place name is not very loud. Historically, after the Battle of Chibi, Sun Quan changed Moling to Jianye to symbolize the establishment of a great cause.
However, Yan Liang felt that Jianye was not domineering enough, so he decided to change Moling to Yingtian, which meant complying with the destiny of heaven, so as to show his ambition to his ministers and the people of the world.
In addition, the regime that established its capital in the south has rarely succeeded in the Northern Expedition since ancient times. Only Zhu Yuanzhang succeeded.
After Zhu Yuanzhang captured Moling, he renamed the city Yingtian.
Yan Liang's intention is to borrow the luck brought by the name of "Yingtian".
"Ying Tian Ying Tian, complying with the destiny of heaven, this is a good name. We all support it with both hands." As the mastermind of the conquest of Wu, Pang Tong was the first to stand up and support it.
All the other civil and military officials agreed, saying that the name was changed well and that it was very domineering and resounding.
Seeing that everyone was the same, Yan Liang became more and more interested, and announced his second decision, which was to move the general's palace from Xiangyang to Yingtian after the repairs of Moling City were completed.
Although Xiangyang is a strategically important place, it can be used as a political center when it is separated from one side, but what Yan Liang wants to fight for is the world. Since ancient times, those from the south have been kings and hegemons in the world, and those who strive for supremacy in the world have always followed the principle of establishing the capital in accordance with heaven.
In addition, after all, the Sun family has been in Jiangdong for many years. If he wants to completely subdue Jiangdong, Yan Liang must take charge personally.
Historically, after Cao Cao destroyed Yuan Shao, he moved his tyranny from Xudu to Yecheng. It was for this reason that Yan Liang's move was a method of learning from Cao Cao.
All the civil and military officials present were sensible people and understood Yan Liang's intentions. They all agreed with Yan Liang's second decision.
The plan was made, Yan Liang was in a great mood, and even drank heavily with the generals.
In this lively atmosphere, Gan Ning, who was half-drunk, stood up, raised his wine glass high, and shouted happily: "My lord, I'm going to Jiangdong soon. Who can achieve such feats? In my opinion, my lord will return it."
If you are a right general, why not become a hero on your own and claim the title of emperor!" (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
