Sun Ce knew that it was human nature for Zhang Hong not to make suggestions for Sun Ce, but he still hurriedly said: "Your name is widely spread, and people near and far will respect and obey you. Whether my plan can be implemented today is entirely up to you. Decision. Why don't you put aside your worries and tell the truth? Only in this way can it match your mountain-like reputation."

"If I can stretch my ambition to smile, and the blood revenge is avenged, it will all be your credit. This is all I want to visit you this time."

After saying this, Sun Ce burst into tears, but his face remained determined and his expression did not change.

Zhang Hong may have been moved by Sun Ce's sincerity, but he still failed to keep his bottom line, so he combined Sun Ce's ideas, made modifications, and expressed his thoughts: "When the royal family of Zhou Wang declined, Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin rose together, the royal family was able to When things gradually stabilized, the princes of the world paid tribute and reported their duties."

Zhang Hong's meaning was very clear. He didn't really agree with Liu Han's approach. He hoped to revitalize the Han Dynasty in his own way, let Sun Ce support the Han Dynasty with force, restore the emperor's status as the co-owner of the world, and realize "respecting the king and rejecting the barbarians".

In Liu Han's opinion, Zhang Hong's idea was good, but a bit of a joke. Society is changing, times are changing, and rules from hundreds of years ago can only be used as experience and cannot be applied mechanically to the present.

After all, Zhang Hong still couldn't let go of the dream of kings and scholar-bureaucrats sharing the world. But is it the world where kings and scholar-bureaucrats share the world? When the king is strong, he can share the world with the scholar-bureaucrats. When the king is weak, to put it nicely, it is to respect the king and fight the barbarians. To put it badly, it is to hold the emperor hostage to order the princes!

Liu Han, never allow this to happen again!

Eunuchs are not good, relatives are not good, and nobles are not good!

The world is in chaos, the princes are fighting, Han has lost his deer, and the whole world is chasing him. Which prince does not want to sit on the supreme position?

It's just that some people dare, and some people have a thief's heart but not the courage.

No matter how you say it, respecting the king and fighting off the barbarians won't work, but Zhang Hong's heart towards the Han Dynasty is still worthy of admiration.

One sentence raised Sun Ce's ideological consciousness. I raised the army not to avenge my father, but to help the Han Dynasty!

Then, Zhang Hong expressed his thoughts. He did not think it was a good choice for Sun Ce to defect to Yuan Shu, but directly asked him to go to Danyang to join his uncle Wu Jing.

The second step is to capture Wu County and Kuaiji County with the help of his uncle. This step coincides with Sun Ce's idea.

The third step is to gather troops and horses on the basis of occupying three counties, and then occupy the entire Yangzhou.

The fourth step is to use Yangzhou as the base and occupy Jingzhou, which can not only take revenge, but also expand your base and obtain more resources.

The last step was to rely on the Yangtze River to control the entire Jing and Yang states and become a foreign vassal.

In this way, Sun Ce can become the leader of the princes and help the Han Dynasty like Duke Huan of Qi and Duke Wen of Jin. It is just around the corner.

This point is similar to the Longzhong match between Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but for the Jiangdu match, Sun Ce is the young man visiting the old man, and Liu Bei is the old man visiting the young man. They all value the land of Jingxiang. Zhang Hong wanted Sun Ce to occupy Jiangdong first and Xu to conquer Jingzhou; Zhuge Liang wanted Liu Bei to occupy Jingzhou first and then annex Yizhou. One in the southeast corner and one in the southwest corner.

There are two differences between the ideas of Sun Ce and Zhang Hong. First, Zhang Hong has a greater operational ambition, which has proven to be the limit of Jiangdong in the future; second, Zhang Hong is not willing to let Sun Ce go to Yuan Shu. In his opinion, Yuan Shu The day of defeat is not far away. If I go to find him now, will I be able to survive the life of living under someone else's roof?

Moreover, at this time, Yuan Shu experienced a major defeat and fled to Yangzhou in a hurry, causing trouble everywhere. Among the surrounding Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Biao, Tao Qian and even Liu Yao who had just arrived in Yangzhou, who didn't hate him?

Yuan Shu seems to be powerful, but he is in a very bad situation at the moment. He is politically isolated, militarily defeated, economically short-sighted, and has a greedy personality. For such a person, no matter how you look at it, he is just a withered bone in the grave.

It's time for Sun Ce to leave, but if he doesn't leave, Tao Qian in Xuzhou should be anxious. Sun Ce's stay at the south gate of Xuzhou not only makes Tao Qian very uncomfortable, but Tao Qian also has a strong feeling that Sun Jian's half-child will have a great future. It may disrupt his layout in Yangzhou.

Turns out he was right.

Tao Qian was very afraid of Sun Ce, and the reason for this was Yuan Shu. As soon as Yuan Shu drove Chen Yu away, he took charge of Yangzhou as a herdsman, and also "concurrently took charge" of "Xuzhou Bo". Obviously Yuan Shu was also eyeing Xuzhou. Sun Jian and Yuan Shu have a close relationship. In Tao Qian's view, Sun Ce is here to poach people and cause destruction.

Not only that, Yuan Shu drove Chen Yu away, which also showed that the Yuan family in Runan and the Chen family in Xiapi were at odds, which would also bring huge trouble to Sun Ce in the future.

Zhang Hong and Sun Ce both looked towards the land of Jiangdong. This is Sun Ce’s place of strength, his stage!

The six counties of Yangzhou are Jiujiang, Lujiang, Danyang, Wu, Kuaiji and Yuzhang.

To the north of the Yangtze River are Jiujiang and Lujiang counties, and to the south of the Yangtze River are the remaining four counties.

They chose the three counties of Danyang, Wu County and Kuaiji County. They had the natural dangers of the Yangtze River, the wealth of Wu and Yue, and the soldiers of Danyang.

Before leaving, Zhang Hong made him a promise: If you, Sun Ce, live up to expectations, achieve great achievements, and create great things, I will cross the Yangtze River south with my friends to help you.

After receiving this promise, Sun Ce felt reassured and felt more confident.

Zhang Hong was afraid that Sun Ce would go to Yuan Shu again, so he repeatedly told him not to go and not to have anything to do with Yuan Shu again!

However, Sun Ce still selectively listened to Zhang Hong's strategy. He knew that Zhang Hong was doing it for his own good, but he still chose to go to Yuan Shu. Firstly, Sun Jian's political legacy and his troops were still with Yuan Shu; secondly, , Huang Gai, Zhu Zhi and other old generals are still waiting for the return of the young master.

Sun Ce firmly believed: "I must go!"

Listen to others' advice and eat enough.

The reason why Liu Han and Cao Cao were able to get away with and stand firm was largely due to his ability to listen to what others said. Although he had many weird ideas, he could always be pulled back by the counselors.

Asking others for advice is to listen to the thinking deductions of different patterns and use them for my own use, rather than to confirm my own ideas through other people's words to cheer me up for my own entertainment.

After Sun Ce came out from Zhang Hong, he decided to take action immediately. Sun Ce left his family in Jiangdu (Mrs. Wu, Sun Quan, Sun Yi, Sun Kuang, concubine Sun Lang, and concubine Sun Shangxiang).

Although he did not stay in Guangling for a few months (Cao Cao massacred Xuzhou!) Xuzhou was not safe, and Sun Ce did not expect that the situation would change. Knowing that Cao Cao was very vengeful, Sun Ce asked his family to return to Qu'a after staying for a few months.

Then he turned around and rushed to Shouchun to see Yuan Shu to realize his plan.

Sun Ce's abandonment of the South and the West finally determined the outcome of his life.

When he left and came back, the timing, general trend, and public opinion had all changed!

His father's reputation was bad, and Yuan Shu's reputation was even worse. It was Sun Ce who entered Jiangdong wearing these two beautiful halos. (End of chapter)
