Who is not Cao Cao?

Chapter 136 Hey, Big Joe

"Marquis Shen!"

Even Zhou Yu, who had always been amiable to He Yan, now finally had a livid face, and said indignantly, "Such behavior is an insult to Sikong's prestige!"

"It's a joke! Father's death and son's succession is a rule written in the Han law! Dare I ask, why did it damage Sikong's prestige?"

"But if Sun Shao is granted the title of Marquis of Wu, how can he live in the general who seeks captives to pacify Jiangdong?"

He Yan said "Oh": "It turns out that Gong Jin wanted to make the general who is seeking captives the Marquis of Wu? Look, why didn't you say it earlier?"

Zhou Yu: "..."

His originally handsome face was now full of veins, and it could be seen that he was really working hard to suppress his temper.

"Since Marquis Shen knows it's a misunderstanding, it's better to invite the emperor's edict as soon as possible, and canonize the general who seeks captives as Marquis of Wu!"

"How does this work?"

He Yan shook his head and rejected Zhou Yu.

"The previous food, soldiers, Lu Su, Lu Meng, and Lu Xun were all used to exchange Sun Shao for the Marquis of Wu."

"Want to be canonized as Marquis of Wu, the general who seeks captives? Yes!"

"But you have to pay more!"

Zhou Yu: "..."

After a long time, Zhou Yu suppressed his anger and spit out a few words through his teeth: "What else does Marquis Shen want?"

"Proton!"

He Yan still needs to add the last layer of protection for the stability of the south!
I was playing hooligans with Zhou Yu before, but we still have to talk honestly about the business.

Once Yuan Shao dies, Boss Cao's chances of seizing the north will increase greatly.At that time, Boss Cao can be regarded as "putting on his shoes" and becoming a decent person.You can't force yourself with a "barefoot" like Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.

So He Yan must take advantage of this opportunity to trap Sun Quan and Zhou Yu to death in the south and prevent them from going north.

"I want Sun Ce's son, Sun Shao, to follow me back to Xuchang!"

"As soon as Sun Shao arrives in Xuchang safely, the imperial edict to confer Wuhou will be delivered immediately!"

He Yan stretched out his finger: "Two paths, you choose."

Among the Sun clan, only Sun Ce's son would threaten Sun Quan and Zhou Yu with fear.

For the others, with Sun Quan and Zhou Yu's temper, they probably wouldn't care.

"Don't think about it!"

Zhou Yu finally couldn't bear it anymore, this gentle Confucian general lost his composure under He Yan's pressing every step of the way.

"How can I let Bofu's children go to Xuchang with you? Don't even think about it!"

Sun Ce has only Sun Shao's son, how could Zhou Yu let Sun Shao leave?

"Don't be so decisive, Gongjin, think about it for yourself."

He Yan did not continue to be tough at this time, but talked to Zhou Yu about the truth——

"Even if Sun Shao arrives in Xuchang, do you think I or Sikong will harm him?"

"Not only will he not harm him, Sikong will also find the best Confucianism for Sun Shao, so that he can receive the best education and grow up in Xuchang safely."

"If you are really worried, I will go to the emperor and let Sun Shao inherit the title of Marquis Wucheng from the Sun clan."

"With the protection of the title, who can harm him at the feet of the emperor?"

"On the contrary, if he stays in Jiangdong, stays in Wu County. He will fall into the flames of war in Jiangdong since he was a child, and his life will be in danger at any time."

"Gongjin, you don't want Sun Ce's child to have an accident because of some accident, do you? With your wisdom, you should be able to figure out where to protect him from growing up safely!"

Zhou Yu didn't have time to listen to He Yan's nonsense: "That's not okay! Is there any reason to send the lord's son to someone else's family to support him?"

He Yan looked normal, and asked Zhou Yu, "Then if Sun Shao stays in Jiangdong, what should Gong Jin do to him?"

"Treat me like a lord!"

"What about Sun Quan?"

"..."

He Yan was killed by another blow, and the words that came out of his mouth were like a sharp arrow piercing Zhou Yu's heart.

"Gongjin, you said that you treat Sun Shao like a lord, but what about Sun Quan?"

"Do you really think that when Sun Shao grows up, Sun Quan will obediently hand over Jiangdong to Sun Shao?"

"Or do you think that you will be able to train Sun Shao into a saint and let him hand over Jiangdong that should belong to him?"

He Yan shook his head: "I brought Sun Shao back to Xuchang, and I may not have no intention of saving him."

"Gong Jin would rather let me take Sun Shao away than to see Sun Shao and Sun Quan in pain later on."

"You and I are smart people, you should understand some things without saying them."

"Let Sun Shao follow me back to Xuchang, you can calm Jiangdong with peace of mind, and Sikong will be able to worry less about the rear and concentrate on dealing with Yuan Shao."

"There is a reason for this, please Gong Jin carefully consider it."

Zhou Yu's face has lost half of the blood, but this just shows that Zhou Yu is already thinking about this matter seriously.

It is impossible for Sun Shao to inherit Jiangdong's foundation if he stays in Jiangdong.

He Yan knew this, and Zhou Yu naturally knew it too.

Not only will he not be able to inherit the foundation, but his existence will definitely arouse Sun Quan's suspicion in the future.

Suspicion is often the beginning of danger.

If Zhou Yu really just wanted Sun Shao to grow up safely and pass on the incense to Sun Ce, going to Xuchang is actually a good choice.

"Gongjin."

He Yan said earnestly again: "Let Sun Shao go to Xuchang, and each of us will feel at ease."

"Or we can make a gentleman's covenant."

Zhou Yu looked up at He Yan: "What kind of appointment is a gentleman?"

"Whether Sikong takes Hebei first, or you take Jingzhou first, as long as one of the two achieves this step, I will send Sun Shao back."

"So, is Gongjin willing?"

The main reason why Cao Cao and the Sun family did not want to go to war was Hebei.

If the north is captured, Cao Cao's attention will definitely shift to the south, and the meaning of Sun Shao's existence will no longer exist.

The same reason.

If Jiangdong takes Jingzhou, then Sun Wu will definitely send his troops north to seek the opportunity to set the Central Plains.A Sun Shao will become insignificant in front of the national situation.

As for who will do all of this first, it will all depend on their abilities.

After Zhou Yu listened to He Yan's "A Gentleman's Covenant", she lowered her head and silently compared in her heart.

If Cao Cao wanted to fulfill this condition, he had to kill Yuan Shao who occupied the land of the four states.

But if Jiangdong wants to fulfill the conditions, he only needs to win Jingzhou, which is occupied by Liu Biao.

Liu Biao and Yuan Shao are not in the same order of magnitude at all.

Even if Jiangdong is currently unstable and needs time to rectify, Jiangdong's task is still easier than Cao Cao's!

As long as Jiangdong can win Jingzhou before Cao Cao defeats Yuan Shao, he will naturally win the bet.

"Think about it, I'll go back to Wan County first."

He Yan knew that it would undoubtedly be cruel to let Zhou Yu walk out of this choice.

But cruelty to the enemy is the quality that a qualified general and even a strategist must possess.

If he didn't take advantage of Jiangdong's weakest moment to come up and take a few bites, then Cao Cao would face a fully developed Jiangdong.

At that time, if the war goes wrong, it will be cruel to hundreds of thousands of soldiers and millions of civilians.

He Yan left enough time for Zhou Yu, and returned to Wan County with Lu Su, Lu Meng, Lu Xun and a thousand soldiers.

In the process of returning to Wan County, Lu Meng realized that he seemed to have become He Yan's subordinate unknowingly, which made Lu Meng's head buzzing.

"Marquis Shen... No, Colonel He."

At this time, Lu Meng was not the sixth son who crossed the river in white clothes, but a reckless young man and a rookie in the army.

This led to a kind of clear stupidity in Lu Meng's eyes.

Now Lu Meng was looking at He Yan with this stupid look, and asked softly: "Lieutenant He, do I really want to stay in Wan County in the future?"

"will not."

He Yan's answer made Lu Meng think that he still had a chance to return to Sun Quan's command, but He Yan's subsequent words directly cut off his hope——

"From now on, you will be my lieutenant general, and those soldiers under your command will also be my part."

"I will take you to the land of Yanzhao to meet the Xianbei Huns, and I will also take you to the western border of Guanzhong to quell the troubles of Qiang and Di."

"Compared to the entire land of China, this Wan County is too small, and this Jiangdong is too small."

"So, do you understand?"

Lu Meng's breathing was a little short, his nose fluttered up and down: "Your Majesty understands!"

"Ah."

Lu Meng is very good at fooling around now, so He Yan mainly focused on Lu Su and Lu Xun.

After deliberating for a while, He Yan came to Lu Xun's side on a fast flight, looking at this future pillar of the Eastern Wu Dynasty.

"I met Marquis Shen."

"Exemption."

Lu Xun really looked like a frail scholar, he even saluted politely, and he couldn't tell that he had the ease and ease of a military officer.

"Want revenge?"

"Ok?"

Lu Xun thought of countless scenarios when the two sides met for the first time, but there was no such straightforward opening as now, and he was somewhat surprised.

"Why are you embarrassed to say it? You can avenge the revenge of a man for ten generations. I am embarrassed to say it in Jiangdong on weekdays, but I am still embarrassed when I come out now?"

He Yan sneered at Lu Xun's attitude: "With the reputation of the Lu family in Wu County, even if you become an enemy of the Sun family in the future, you will not be able to involve the family."

"Now that you have broken away from the shackles of the family, with your Lu Boyan's ability, you can be regarded as a tiger out of the cage and a dragon leaping into the sea. If you want to continue to raise your temper, be careful not to let yourself be disabled!"

Lu Xun bit his lip, as if thinking about what He Yan said.

"What can Marquis Shen promise?"

"That depends on what you can do."

He Yan never made guarantees for things he wasn't sure about.

"If you are really capable, it's fine to slaughter the Sun family."

"No... You can't kill Sun Shao, at least not for the past few years."

After He Yan corrected his wording, Lu Xun nodded calmly: "I don't care about a child."

Seeing that Lu Xun's calmness was a little too much, He Yan persuaded: "Young and talented, you should indulge your spirit and scold Fang Qiu, and don't always be dead."

When Lu Xun heard He Yan's words, he quickly glanced at He Yan with his dead fish eyes, but quickly moved his eyes elsewhere.

"The Marquis of Shen is a young man, but how many Marquis Shen are there in this world?"

"Huh? Wunderkind?"

He Yan was amused by these words.

"In the old days when the Luoyang Palace was changed, I, the He family, was killed and I was the only one left. At that time, who dared to say that I would be a young man?"

Only then did Lu Xun look directly at He Yanlai, and looked him up and down.

"Marquis Shen didn't think about revenge?"

"What do you think I'm doing now?"

He Yan did not deny it.

"But the world is not just suffering and hatred, nor is it only hatred between family and country. You must make your ambitions more interesting."

"Then what is Marquis Shen's ambition?"

After He Yan tilted his head and thought for a while, he said uncertainly, "Maybe it's... that there are tens of thousands of mansions built to shelter all the young ladies in the world?"

"..."

The corner of Lu Xun's mouth twitched: "It really is a good ambition."

"Since you think it's a good ambition, follow me in the future."

He Yan patted Lu Xun on the back: "Straighten up, don't hide!"

"Don't forget the young Ling Yunzhi, who was once the best in the world."

"Keep this breath, ambition can be realized, and my little lady can also have it!"

"But the breath is gone, but there is nothing left!"

Lu Xun took a deep breath, and thanked He Yan: "Thank you, Marquis Shen, for your suggestion."

"polite!"

At the end, He Yan drifted to Lu Su's side again.

From Lu Su, He Yan could not see the slightest decadence, nor could he see the slightest ostentation.

If one insists on saying that there is something about him, then it is probably only Xu Shu from Zangfeng.

But Xu Shu belonged to the kind who didn't pull out the sword, no one knew how sharp the sword he hid was.

Lu Su didn't need to take out his sheath, so people could notice the hidden sharpness on his body.

Although they are the same workers, they are still different songs, which cannot be summed up in one word.

"Brother Zi Yang has already informed me about Marquis Shen in a letter."

Unlike Lu Meng and Lu Xun, Lu Su took the initiative to talk to He Yan.

"I'll talk about the new learning when I go back."

"Bandits in Lujiang, I already have a rough strategy."

"In addition, brother Ziyang has already promised to list me as the chief historian of Yuzhang, so there is no need for Marquis Shen to promise me anything."

Lu Su put his hand on his beard: "You can't go a thousand miles without taking a few steps. You have to make some achievements before you can enter the Sikong Shogunate and realize your ambition!"

"Since I, Lu Zijing, are willing to return to the north...then this north deserves a place for me!"

He Yan: ...

He Yan has seen many heroes in the world.

But apart from Cao Cao who was dreaming of "Duke Zhou", He Yan had never seen such a conceited person.

I come, I conquer!
This kind of demeanor is truly unparalleled in the world!
While He Yan was happy, he was also a little disappointed.

Unlike Lu Meng, Lu Xun and other Xiaomengxin who have just entered the rivers and lakes, Lu Su is going to be the biggest and strongest as soon as he becomes an official.

Just as Jiang Dong couldn't tolerate him, He Yan couldn't tolerate him either.

In the whole world, only Boss Cao can satisfy Lu Su.

……

When the group returned to Wan County, He Yan told Liu Ye the news that Sun Shao would be taken as a hostage, and asked Liu Ye to help him analyze: "What is the probability that Zhou Yu will send Sun Shao to Xuchang?"

Liu Ye thought about it for a while, and finally raised three fingers.

"If Marquis Shen doesn't mention the following gentleman's covenant, then it's only [-]%."

"But with this gentleman's covenant, there will be a [-]% chance!"

He Yan nodded: "Seventy percent is already high enough, you can give it a try."

Only one night passed, and in the early morning of the second day, an envoy from the Sun family came to Wan County and agreed to take Sun Shao as a hostage.

And because Sun Shao has not yet reached the age of weaning, Sun Shao's mother Da Qiao (Qiao) also asked to go to Xuchang together to raise He Yan.

Naturally, He Yan couldn't bear to let Da Qiao and Sun Shao suffer from lovesickness, so he readily agreed to this small request.

After the dust settled, Liu Ye finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Sun Shao! Hehe!"

And He Yan also breathed a sigh of relief: "Big Joe! Hehe!"

Liu Ye:? ? ?
