Zhuge was reborn, killed the old thief Sima

Chapter 654 The Battle of Chang'an
"Sun Zhongmou is worthy of being able to lead Jiangdong to stand in troubled times for so many years. His method of weighing the pros and cons is indeed worthy of praise!"

Chang'an City, in Weiyang Palace.

Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei also received the news from Jingzhou and Pang Tong's order to fight.

After all, Pang Tong is not Guan Yu. Trust is trust. What Guan Yu had back then, Pang Tong didn't have at all.

It has nothing to do with him being caught by the military and the government, and there are no holidays, and the absolute commander of Jingzhou is even more irrelevant, so if you want to do something, you have to listen to Chang'an.

In Pang Tong's view, Jiangdong was already ready. If he waited until Cao came out again, Jingzhou would probably lose the opportunity.

Therefore, from Pang Tong's perspective, this was already his last chance.

We must attack Jiangdong!
But after his news reached Chang'an, it caused an uproar and controversy.

Among them, Fazheng's opinion is not to fight!

"Jiangdong is now in a precarious state, and anyone with a discerning eye has already seen the crisis in Jiangdong. Even if Sun Zhongmou has the power to reach the sky, he is already powerless.

It's not enough for Lu Xun and others to protect themselves, let alone make progress?

In this case, why don't we slowly figure it out, continue to divide them, and then spread rumors to make Jiangdong fall into chaos without a war.

When Sun Zhongmou was oppressed, he might even be angry and massacre in Jiangdong.

When that time comes, wouldn't it be great if we just take advantage of the trend?
Even if Sun Zhongmou has the ability to control the situation in Jiangdong, as long as we continue to win over the wealthy families in Jiangdong, we can continue to turn enemies into friends.

When the time comes, our troops will be well-fed and the army will be in full force.

Then Jiangdong also collapsed without a fight, wouldn't it be happy? "

Fazheng is good at scheming, and from his point of view, Jiangdong has no chance at all.

There is no need to worry about the threat to their back path caused by jumping back and forth like before!

This sending troops to attack is a waste of troops and food, and it is completely unnecessary.

There were many people who had the same idea as him at this time, but there were even more people who had the same idea as Pang Tong.

Among them, Xu Shu, who was both civil and military, finally stood up and opened his mouth to retort.

"Xiaozhi, you see that the destruction of Jiangdong is the general trend, but why can't you see that the Cao family has been avoiding war?
Cao Pi is not a timid person, but he has the same idea as you!
In recent years, the Cao family has been practicing the Nine-Rank Zhongzheng method. Although no problem has been discovered yet, we have discussed this matter before.

Only a moment can hardly conceal the foundation of eternity!
Kong Ming once said that if this method is practiced for a long time, it will become the authority of the family, and it is true that ordinary people from poor families will have no way to rise.

In other words, the many families that are truly in charge of power in Jiangdong are truly powerful.

If they join our ranks, I'm afraid they will be moved out.

But can they still hold power when they come to Chang'an?Can he still hold an important position in the government?

But if they go to Cao's land, they will also be moved out, but as long as they wait for the recommendation the following year, they can take advantage of the situation and enter the Cao Wei court.

This is the condition Cao Wei gave them!
This is coaxing, and it’s something we can’t give you.

The situation in Jiangdong is already like this at this time. If Sun Quan wants to maintain the current situation, he must rely on the real local wealthy families.

But in this case, the situation really got out of control.

By that time, how much can I wait for!
Instead of waiting for the Cao family to win them over, it is better for us to take the lead and attack Jiangdong first.

To oppress Jiangdong, Jiangdong had to mobilize troops."

"The report of the battle in Jiangdong came. Sun Zhongmou came to congratulate Qi. Yu Fan, Bu Zhi and other Huaisi lineage or Kuaiji wealthy people were stationed outside Jiaozhou. Pan Ping, Jiang Yi and other generals later stationed in Chaisang and other places. In addition, , and several powerful families from Jiangdong were stationed at the rear.

This means fighting me to the death!
If we had sent troops, we would have suffered heavy losses and the gains would not be worth the losses.”

Fazheng was not polite either. He could tell a lot from the station newspaper. The situation of dividing the troops and garrisoning them was not a big deal.

But these people sent by Sun Quan are a big problem.

Veteran generals He Qi and Yu Fan have more or less contacts with the Cao family, and their attitude towards them has never been very good.

After all, among the two families, Yu Fan and He Qi's personalities are not suitable for the Han Dynasty's current court.

Their garrison in Kuaiji is an example of people who will not surrender.

Chai Sang's direction is even more decisive. Most of the fathers of these young generals died at their hands, which makes it clear that they will fight to the end.

Even Fazheng once felt that Sun Quan wanted to simply join Cao Wei.

This formation of soldiers is too fierce.

It's just that Fa Zheng has Fa Zheng's thoughts, and Xu Shu on the side refuses to give up.

"It is precisely because they have a deep hatred for us that most of these people's fathers died at the hands of our army.

If they join Cao Mengde's command in the future, they may pose a greater threat to us, so we might as well take this opportunity to kill them directly.

At the same time weaken the power of those powerful families, so that Sun Zhongmou had to reuse the generation of other powerful families.

And with our previous efforts to win over, we may be able to occupy the land of Jiangdong! "

"Xu Yuanzhi, what you do is wishful thinking!"

"Fazheng, you are the real coward. You were so bold before, but now you are so stupid when it comes to Jiangdong!"

Fazheng and Xu Shu argued with each other at the beginning, then pointed at each other and yelled, and finally Xu Shu directly proposed to make a date with Fazheng after the court was over.

Only then did Fazheng shut his mouth and quickly walked to Meng Da's side.
When Liu Bei, who was sitting in the seat, saw this scene, he went from being excited at the beginning to sighing at the end.

And at the end the brows were furrowed. The change on the face was wonderful.

In the end, he had no choice but to turn his attention to Zhuge Liang. It was obvious that he felt that his prime minister was more reliable at this time.

"Kong Ming. Just now you talked about Sun Quan's way of weighing things up. Why don't you talk about how to break the situation today?"

"Report to your majesty" Kong Mingcha bowed to Liu Bei, then looked at the two sides of the court who were still a little dissatisfied and resentful, and finally said slowly.

"Actually, there is no hope for Jiangdong now, but he is not a generation to be slaughtered.

Jiangdong has been a brave man since ancient times.”

"Prime Minister, are you worried that your brother will be killed by the battlefield?"

At this moment, a voice that should not have appeared directly appeared, and for a while, several eyes fell directly on the crowd.

Even Xu Shu and Fazheng, who had the most quarrel just now, couldn't help looking over.

Especially Fazheng, he couldn't help but look at Zhou Buyu in the corner from the corner of his eyes, and then recalled how this warrior whose name he forgot had survived until now.
Zhuge Liang did not pause for a moment after hearing these words, and saluted directly in the direction of Liu Bei.

"I think the prince should lead the troops in the Jiangdong battle!"
