Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 346
Li Song thought for a while and said, "According to Dezu's words, I wrote a letter to Zhang Zhao and Xu Chongli, asking him to persuade Sun Quan to surrender. If we don't surrender, when our army breaks through Jiangdong, there will be no armor left, and no one will be at peace."

As for Zhang Zhao and others, they will be lured by huge profits on the one hand, and threatened on the other. As long as he dares to do both ends, he will definitely be unable to eat and walk around.

"No!" Everyone saluted and replied, in this way, there will be nothing to do with their generals, should this army go back with the prime minister?

At this time, Yang Xiu's expression was naturally different from those generals who couldn't get credit and had ugly faces. There was still a smile on the corner of his mouth. Can't bear the slightest resistance.

Li Song had a panoramic view of everyone's expressions, and said with a slight smile, "Of course, everyone, don't take it lightly! If Zhang Zhao can't persuade Sun Quan to submit to the imperial court, I still have to rely on your hard work."

"No!" The generals swept away the haze before, why did they forget for a moment, if Zhang Zhao failed, it would not be their contribution in the end.

Li Song looked back at Yang Xiu and said, "As for the letter, I will leave it to Dezu. How to write the letter is up to Dezu. Don't let me down."

"Your order!" Yang Xiu clasped his hands and saluted. Li Song saw that everything that needed to be explained had been explained, so he announced the adjournment of the meeting and left with Xu Chu and Li Yuanba, the two chief guards, and everyone went down to do their own things.

The next day, Li Song immediately got together and returned to Xuchang. Before returning to Xuchang, Yang Xiu wrote the letter and handed it to Li Song for review. .

In Chaisang, Jiangdong, Zhang Zhao got a letter from Li Songjun's side, and after reading it, he summoned Yu Fan, Xue Zong, Lu Ji and other vassals to his residence.

"You have read Li Song's letter. Do you have anything to say?" Zhang Zhao looked around, and then said, "It came out of your mouth, but into my ear! After leaving this door, you will die." In your belly, everyone don’t have any worries, but it’s okay to say!”

"What else can I do! Naturally, I want to persuade Marquis Wu to submit to the imperial court. Don't go against the imperial court and act like a minister!" Seeing that everyone was silent, Cheng Deshu took the lead in breaking the silence, and even changed the name of Sun Quan.

Calling Sun Quan the Lord means that he is still a minister of the Sun family in Jiangdong, and calling Sun Quan the Marquis of Wu means that he is still a minister of the Han court, and he is an official of the Han Dynasty just like Sun Quan.

"In the past, when Prime Minister Li was attacking Jingzhou, I tried to persuade Marquis Wu to submit to the court, but unfortunately, Lu Su and Zhou Yu ruined it, so that my Jiangdong soldiers died tragically. If these two are not eliminated, Jiangdong will never have peace. "Zhang Wen said.

Everyone here naturally hated these two people who persuaded Sun Quan to fight against Li Song. If it weren't for them, why would Jiangdong be reduced to the point where the navy was completely wiped out? There is no need to kill so many people. In the final analysis, it is Lu Su and Zhou Yu's fault, they are the culprits.

"There are no eggs under the nest. Once we can't persuade Marquis Wu to submit to the imperial court, when the imperial army arrives, Jiangdong will be devastated, and all of us here will be killed by the imperial court." Strictly said.

"Who says no!" Everyone echoed, for them, surrender is the best way out.

"Zhou Yu is nothing to be afraid of. A person who has been sent to prison will not be able to make any troubles. The key is to think about how to deal with Lu Su. As long as there is no such person as a hindrance, we can persuade Marquis Wu to submit. It will be easy for the imperial court," Lu Ji said.

"Lu Su needs to be eliminated, and Zhou Yu can't stay. What if Marquis Wu remembers Zhou Yu who is in prison? What if Zhou Yu is reactivated? Don't you all want to watch Marquis Wu continue to resist? ?” Xue Zong expressed his concern.

"Jingwen is right! These two people must be eradicated before the lord meets Wu Jun, so as to ensure the eternal existence of Jiangdong's foundation, so that the old man can face Sun Jian and Sun Ce when he is under the Nine Springs." Zhang Zhao is the only one who can call Sun Quan the lord again.

Zhang Zhao and the others discussed again, until after the third watch, they finally got a clue, and they bid farewell to Zhang Zhao and left.

Zhang Zhao and others were discussing, but Lu Su came to meet Sun Quan overnight, and was stopped by the guard outside the door. Lu Su said to the guard, "Please tell the lord, Lu Su has something to see!"

"Sir, please wait here! I'll go inside and report to the lord!" A guard on the left cupped his fists and said, then turned and went inside to report to Sun Quan about Lu Su's request to see him.

"My lord! Mr. Lu is begging to see you outside! He said he has something important to report to the lord!" The guard knelt down on one knee when he entered Sun Quan.

"No! Just say that I've already fallen asleep. If there's anything else, I'll talk about it tomorrow." Sun Quan said.

"No!" The guard took the order, got up and was about to leave, but was stopped by Sun Quan. After thinking about it, Sun Quan decided to meet Lu Su to see what he was looking for, "Forget it, let me see you." Sir, let sir come in!"

The guards withdrew, and after a while Lu Su entered, saluted Sun Quan and said, "Lu Su sees my lord!"

"Zijing is here! I don't know what's important to come here late at night?" Sun Quan's face was not very good. When he saw Lu Su, he still squeezed a smile on his face.

These days, Sun Quan not only has an ugly face, but also has a bad temper, even more irritable than before. After all, it doesn't matter who he encounters these things in succession.

"Don't hide it from my lord! I have two things to do here, and I come to pray to my lord." Lu Su said.

"I don't know what it is. I need you to come late at night and talk about it." Sun Quan asked Lu Su to sit down and talk.

"This one! It's for Jiangdong's future, these two! I hope the lord can forgive Zhou Yu and Zhou Gongjin. If this is done, the first one can be completed." Lu Su said.

When Sun Quan heard this, he felt a little unbelievable and a little dissatisfied. Jiangdong's future should not be decided by him, and when he needs to rely on Zhou Yu, a prisoner, to determine the future.

In any case, the lord must be persuaded to release Gong Jin and fight against Li Song's army, otherwise, Jiangdong is really hopeless.

Lu Su cupped his hands and said: "My lord! After this battle, our Jiangdong generals have lost a lot. The one who can lead the army to fight against Li Song's army is none other than Gongjin. If Gongjin can be released, Jiangdong still has the strength to fight. .”

Sun Quan naturally knew what was going on in Jiangdong, but he felt uncomfortable if he let Zhou Yu go so easily, not to mention that the civil servants would not agree. As the lord of Jiangdong, he naturally had to take them into consideration. Everything can be done arbitrarily.
