Abnormal Three Kingdoms

Chapter 649 Lu Su's Conspiracy
"Nonsense!" Jiangdong, Moling, and Sun Quan angrily threw the "Battle Between Heaven and Man" from the Central Plains on the ground. This book made them sinners of the human race!For his own selfishness, he betrayed the entire human race.

In fact, it’s just a book. Even if everyone under Chu Nan’s rule believes it, it’s not a big problem if Jiangdong’s side doesn’t believe it. At least for now, Sun Quan doesn’t expect to gain the luck of the Central Plains.

However, Jiangdong has sacrificed too much luck these days, causing several natural disasters in Jiangdong. Many mountains in Yuzhang collapsed and buried many people. Sea beast riots, even the river suddenly flooded in this section, and many areas along the way suffered disasters of varying degrees, all of which seemed to confirm the scene described in the battle between heaven and man.

If these things did not happen, then even if this book was printed as a painting by Chu Nan and spread among the people, it would be nothing more than a time-wasting thing for the common people.

But this happened, and just after he worshiped the heaven, the people felt resentment in their hearts, and the book on the struggle between heaven and man is okay, most of the people don't know a single word, even if the paper books are suddenly flooded , so that the books that were originally hard to find are worthless, everyone can buy them and read them, but the common people can't understand them, but the books in the form of paintings can make the common people understand the contents even if they are illiterate.

Now that the people of Jiangdong have suffered from disasters one after another, they need a place to vent their grievances, and this book, no matter whether it is true or not, is tantamount to giving the people an outlet to vent their emotions.

The rebellion was unlikely, but Sun Quan could clearly feel that luck had begun to stop growing or even shrink.

Luck is the key to his longevity. Now that his luck is declining, the feedback from heaven is naturally less and less. What's more terrible is that Chu Nan sent his troops to the south, and the vanguard army has arrived in Nanyang. Wei Yan is also actively preparing for the battle in Hefei. I want to cross the river to look like myself.

Once Jingzhou is taken, Chunan will attack Jiangdong from two directions. Most importantly, with Jingzhou as a springboard, Chunan will not only have the advantage of going downstream, but also have the land of Jingnan, which can be attacked by land. .

"My military order prohibits the sale of this kind of paper books in various places. If there are such books among the people, they should be turned over to the county government offices immediately. Otherwise, once discovered, they will be killed without mercy!" Sun Quan said solemnly.

This book must be curbed before it floods, otherwise once rumors are formed, let alone whether Chu Nan can win the land of Jingxiang, Jiangdong's heart will be confused first.

"My lord, no, people's hearts are most unstable at such a time!" Lu Su hurriedly said, "The more my lord suppresses this matter, the more rumors will spread!"

"But we can't allow that Chu Nan to slander me so wantonly!" Sun Quan snorted coldly.

"My lord, these books are all from the caravan business. At present, they are not widely circulated in our Jiangdong. You can restrict the sale of books by caravans from the Central Plains, and strictly check the returned merchant ships. Once paper books are found, they will be burned immediately." Lu Su said solemnly. road.

Paper books are not a necessity at all, and even the appearance of such books will even cause the rejection of the Jiangdong gentry. After all, this thing may break the gentry's monopoly on learning.

The enlightenment of common people is not a good thing for scholars!
Therefore, there is no need to screen, as long as paper books are found, they are burned on the spot, and they are held accountable, so that the loss can be minimized.

"As for those who have already read these books in Jiangdong, the lord should not be suppressed. It is best not to pay attention to them. It will make people think that these are just reading materials used by the Central Plains to slander the lord." Lu Su said solemnly.

Fangmin’s mouth is better than Fangchuan’s. If it is treated so coldly, those who have already read it will only regard it as a novel story once the novelty passes, and will not take it seriously. But if Sun Quan sends people to suppress it, it will be a guilty conscience. up.

This move is obviously unwise.

Sun Quan is not an idiot either, he just said these orders in a hurry, now he regained his sanity under Lu Su's persuasion, and he also knows that Lu Su's method is the best way to solve this matter, and put an end to this kind of concept from the root spread.

He glanced at Lu Su, thought for a while and said in a deep voice, "What Zijing said is absolutely true, but that Chu Nan is too deceitful, which confused me."

Lu Su nodded and didn't say much.

This kind of performance, on the contrary, shows that he is stepping on a painful foot, otherwise Sun Quan can laugh it off, after all, in the eyes of others, it is just a picture book, Chu Nan black Sun Quan, isn't that normal?It's impossible to sing praises, right?
As a rational monarch, it is impossible to get angry because of this, but Sun Quan got angry and even lost his mind because of such a trivial matter.

Thinking about the content of the dispute between man and man that day and what happened after Jiangdong worshiped the Heavenly Court, Lu Su suddenly felt a little shuddering.

"My lord, now Chunan is going south. Although the sword is pointing at Jingzhou, but judging from his actions, I am afraid that his intention is Jiangdong. Even if we don't come to attack this time, if Jingzhou falls into the hands of thieves, Jiangdong will no longer be able to survive alone." Lu Su Gathering up his mood, he looked at Sun Quan and said with a bow, "I hope the lord will make a decision soon!"

The lips are dead and the teeth are cold. Once Jingzhou is acquired by Chu Nan, there is no need to ask about the next step. It must be a matter of pointing at Jiangdong.

"What's Zijing's opinion?" Sun Quan nodded. Chu Nan's vanguard army had arrived in Nanyang. Although they hadn't done anything yet, it was just a deterrent, but the purpose was to make Jingzhou internal chaos.

The current situation in Jingzhou is that Liu Biao doesn't want to play anymore, but the nobles disagree and insist on fighting against Chu Nan.

"Although this is a crisis, it may not be the Lord's chance. Now the scholars in Jingzhou want to resist Chu Nan and fight against it, but Liu Biao has no intention of fighting again. He wants to go north to Xuchang to listen to the imperial court. Jingzhou has no master, and all the scholars and people are eager for a master. This is the opportunity for the lord to enter Jingzhou, and according to Su’s opinion, we should tie up the Cai and Kuai families, and when Jingzhou changes, the lord can take this opportunity to lead an army to rule Jingzhou.”

Lu Su opened the map and said: "If our army can win Jingzhou, then both the Han River and the Dajiang River will be under our army's control. We can defend Jingzhou and use Jiangdong as a backup. Draw the river with Chunan and wait for the times to change. If there are changes in the future, our army can plot Bashu!"

As far as the current situation in Jiangdong is concerned, it is the limit that can be achieved now to win Jingzhou and rule the river with Chunan. If you are lucky and win Bashu, you will have the qualifications to fight with Chunan.

Sun Quan looked at the map silently. According to his previous thinking, it was enough to be able to rule the roost in Jiangdong and defend the Jiangdong foundation laid by his brother.

But now...it is obviously not enough. He needs more luck, so he needs more population. It is obviously not enough to get a lot of luck in a short time by relying on Jiangdong alone. If he can capture Jingzhou , my luck will definitely be more vigorous, and there will be more things I can do at that time.

"What Zijing said is very much in line with my wishes, but our army and Jingzhou scholars have always been at odds, and I'm afraid..." Sun Quan looked at Lu Su, and he was naturally willing to take Jingzhou, but how to take it?There has been constant friction between Jiangdong and Jingzhou over the years, and Sun Quan has tried to plot Jingzhou several times, but was blocked.

He also invaded Jiangxia last year, slaughtered several cities, and plundered [-] Jiangxia people to Jiangdong. Now he is attacking Jingzhou, and he is worried that the scholars and people will object.

"My lord's words are wrong. Before the dispute between the two families, Liu Biao killed the general, but now Liu Biao has lost his support. Although there are many scholars in Jingzhou, there is no hero who can lead them. Therefore, they can only return to Chunan, but Jingzhou scholars are absolutely unwilling, and the one who can solve the situation in Jingzhou at this time is none other than the lord!" Lu Su laughed.

Liu Biao had already lost his early ambitions. Under the constraints of scholars everywhere, he obviously didn't want to continue to toss and seek stability, so Liu Biao, the envoy sent by Chu Nan, received him as a courtier, but for Jingxiang scholars, , which is unacceptable to them.

According to Chu Nan's past practice, once he occupies Jingzhou, the New Deal will be implemented, and with Chu Nan's current momentum, once he enters Jingzhou, scholars will not be able to stop the implementation of the New Deal.

At that time, not only the cultivated land will be lost, but most importantly, the gentry's control over the land of Jingzhou, the right to speak, the right to finance, and even the right to employ people will be completely shattered by Chu Nan's new policy.

Maybe Chunan's new policy is beneficial to the people of Jingzhou, but it is digging at the roots of the scholars in Jingzhou. Scholars are naturally unwilling to accept it. At present, there is no one in Jingzhou who can convince the public to become the new lord of Jingzhou. Facing Chunan, Even if they killed Liu Biao and elected a puppet, they would still be handing Chu Nan the knife.

Therefore, for the scholars of Jingzhou, Sun Quan who turned to Jiangdong and Jiaozhou is the best destination. As long as Jingzhou can be swallowed, Sun Quan will not say defeating Chu Nan, but at least he has enough confidence to compete with Chu Nan.

As long as he can block Chu Nan's attack, Sun Quan will have a chance to develop.

It can be said that this time Chu Nan sent his troops to the south, it was a catastrophe for Jingzhou and Jiangdong, but it was also a rare opportunity. It happened to take advantage of Chu Nan's pressure to pull the Jingzhou nobles to his side, and then completely swallowed Jingzhou .

As for Shuzhong, it is best to win it, and it doesn’t matter if you can’t take it. Shuzhong is easy to enter and hard to get out. Even if Shu is taken by Chu Nan, as long as the pass along the river is guarded, Chu Nan can be blocked in Shu. .

Sun Quan nodded silently, this is indeed the best opportunity.

He looked at Lu Su and said, "Who does Zijing think we should start with?"

Even if the scholars in Jingzhou were willing, they had to discuss it first, and the land of Jingzhou, if you look around, almost all had conflicts with Sun Quan and Jiangdong. It seemed that it would not be easy to start with anyone.

"My lord, do you know about Xu You and Xu Ziyuan?" Lu Su asked with a smile.

"Of course I know that this person is also from Nanyang. After Yuan Gong was defeated, he stayed in Jingzhou." Sun Quan nodded.

"This person has a lot of contacts in Jingzhou, and he is a minister of Duke Yuan. He is quite trusted by the Jingxiang gentry. If he can be persuaded to help the lord, the land of Jingzhou will be exchanged." Lu Su explained.

"But who can convince this person?" Sun Quan looked at Lu Su and asked.

"If the lord does not give up, I am willing to go!" Lu Su bowed.

"Then there will be Lao Zijing!"
