My husband Zhuge Kongming

Chapter 420 418. Jiangdong's Showing Weakness and Planning (Seeking Subscription Monthly Pass)

Cao Cao established Yuan Shao in the north, and now he has swept away many unstable forces in the north.

All victories, no defeats.

It is recognized by all forces that Cao Cao can fight.

Although Jingzhou has a steamship as a naval vessel, it is hard to say whether it can defeat the Beibing on land... or not.

Furthermore, the land of Yangzhou, which borders Qingzhou and Xuzhou, is not completely isolated from Cao Cao's sphere of influence.

Sun Quan did not hesitate, and directly wrote the alliance letter, and asked Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao to embellish, and then asked Lu Xun to lead people to the north on this day.

……

Yecheng.

Cao Cao was in a good mood when he decided on Bingzhou, but...he also heard the news that Gan Ning had returned with a great victory after crossing to the east.

His previous worries had come true.

It is really possible that the navy in Jingzhou will come directly from the sea.

The mood took a turn for the worse, even though... Guo Jia had already offered a plan before, but so far, it hasn't worked.

"Wen Ruo, what do you think of the Jingzhou matter?"

Xun Yu raised his head and put down the document in his hand, "Liu Biao is seriously ill, and there will be civil strife. Whether it is Cai Mao, Liu Bei, or Chu Anjun, they are all seeking Jingzhou. Therefore, there is no need to worry too much."

When Cao Cao thought about it, he really didn't need to worry too much, but he still had to worry.

"However, the steamship in Jingzhou, no matter what... we must find a way to get one." Xun Yu said, looking at Cao Cao, "Going south is a matter of time, and for us, going south is the biggest thing. The resistance is not the army...but the navy."

Cao Cao agreed, "Yes, I have already ordered people to train the navy."

"The naval forces in the north... and the naval forces in the south, there is still a big gap." Xun Yu smiled, "Besides, with all the ships in Jingzhou, it can't be true that none of them are sold out?"

"Wen Ruo means..."

"Since the lord has obtained a preliminary cooperation intention with Cai Mao, it is time to continue and buy some steamships... It is not a problem if you think about it."

Cao Cao thought for a while, then shook his head, "This steamship is so important...I'm afraid Cai Mao will not agree."

"Just buy one?" Xun Yu said again.

A steamship, even if given, would not be able to make up for combat power.

As long as their price is a little higher, it is still possible to convince Cai Mao.

"Besides, I heard that Jiangdong has already managed to get a few ships."

Cao Cao's eyes lit up, so he agreed, if the enemies have them, he must have them too!
"The news about Gan Xingba will be more urgent than us." Xun Yu smiled again.

He has seen Guo Jia's strategy, and generally speaking, it is not a big problem.

Liu Biao will definitely die of illness, it is only a matter of time.

Without Liu Biao, Jingzhou will be in chaos.

But at this time, he only hoped that this time would come later so that he could make more preparations.

For example, Cao Cao wants to conquer the three counties of Wuhuan, and for example, their navy should practice...or take down the navy of Jiangdong.

After he knew who the enemy of Jingzhou was actually Lord Chu An, he also lamented for a long time. If such a person was used by Cao Cao, then the world would have been settled long ago. Why bother to mess up now?
But he also knows that those with different positions can only become enemies, not friends.

Cao Cao laughed afterward, "Wen Ruo is right!"

half a month later.

Cao Cao saw that the young man was a good young man, and asked with a smile, "Haven't we already formed an alliance?"

Lu Xun nodded, "Naturally, Sikong and my state shepherd are both Hanchens. They are allies in the first place, and they should work together to wipe out the traitors in the future."

Cao Cao narrowed his eyes, "Not bad."

"But when the two sides form an alliance, there must be a leader and a second." Lu Xun continued, "My state shepherd is willing to take Sikong as the leader in the future."

As he spoke, he took out Sun Quan's alliance letter.

There is no way, Jiangdong must show weakness.

Don't show weakness, if Jiangdong is in chaos, Cao Cao may not necessarily send troops to help.

It's stupid, but... the reality is.

Jiangdong will also be in chaos.

Countless aristocratic families are all looking forward to Jingzhou taking over Jiangdong, and this is the headache for Sun Quan and the others.

The affairs and interests brought about by Jingzhou are too great, and Jingzhou and Jiangdong border each other...Moreover, the Sun family in Jiangdong is really...unpopular.

So Sun Quan took every step with difficulty, and at this time, he had to show weakness.

Cao Cao was taken aback for a moment, and then he laughed, "The same palace is a minister, the Lord is the emperor, not me, Cao Cao!"

As he said that, he ordered the attendant to take over the alliance letter, and he was very happy with the contents above.

This means that Jiang Dong has made up his mind to resist Jingzhou together with him.

For some reason, when he talked about Jingzhou, he used resistance... instead of conquest.

Doubts flashed in Cao Cao's mind, but he didn't think too much. At this time, he didn't have time to think too much.

"What Sikong said is very true." Lu Xun agreed.

At least, with Cao Cao's attitude, Jiangdong seems to have hope.

His mission this time also has his own mission objectives.

The first, of course, is to form an alliance with Cao Cao, and the second, of course, is to hope that Cao Cao can lend a helping hand, and a little... contain Jingzhou.

In the past, it was Cao Cao who wanted them to contain Jingzhou, but now... it is they who want Cao Cao to contain Jingzhou.

"I heard that Jiangdong also has a steamship?" Cao Cao didn't talk nonsense, pointing directly at the core.

Lu Xun shook his head, "No."

"Oh? Really?"

"There really is no steamship." Lu Xun nodded again.

They finally managed to get a fast boat, and although they built two more fast boats later, they haven't been able to install the steam engine on the building boat, so they don't have a steamboat.

"Hmph, really?" Cao Cao snorted, dissatisfied.

Of course, he also paid attention to Jiangdong's news.

Jiangdong failed to get the steamship, but he got several small boats like Kuaizhou.

Moreover, he also knew that Jiang Dong was thinking of copying and modifying.

"Yes." Lu Xun still nodded.

Although he was dissatisfied with Cao Cao's words, there was nothing he could do.

They need Cao Cao's protection and a letter of alliance, but it is far from enough, they have to bleed.

But no matter how bleeding, the steamship and the fast boat... must not let go.

……

In Jiangdong, Zhou Yu sat in front of a tomb with a jar of wine.

"Bofu, the situation in Jiangdong is corrupt, and I'm afraid we will lose all the foundations that Bofu has laid down." Zhou Yu sighed, poured some wine in front of Sun Ce's grave, and talked to himself.

"Thinking about it now, the changes in Jingzhou did all appear after that Lord Chu An. This woman... can't stay."

"If not, Jiangdong will perish even if he finds Cao Cao's protection."

"I, Zhou Gongjin, claim to be a real man, but now I have to deal with such a talented woman, and I feel a little guilty after all."

"Unfortunately, the positions are different. Either she dies or I die."

"This plan should be put on the agenda earlier. I hope Bo Fu can forgive me and don't make fun of me."

"If the plan is successful, it can be regarded as... I have avenged part of you for Bofu."

Zhou Yu thought about it for a long time after Lu Xun went north with the alliance letter.

Jiang Dong could clearly occupy the natural danger and sit back and watch the changes in the world, but now he has to bow his head to Cao Cao... The culprit lies in that woman.

Therefore, even if he couldn't bear it, he planned to make a plan to get rid of that person.

Only in this way can Jiangdong endure the chaos and develop, and finally hope to unify the world.

It's a pity that Zijing is already that man's disciple. Otherwise... he could still take Lu Su with him.

……

September.

Lu Su looked at the letter in his hand and widened his eyes, "Gong Jin wants to see Ah Chu, see if it is worth entrusting Jiang Dong?"
