Survival Three Kingdoms

Chapter 554 Dragging Sun Quan into the water

Sima Yi smiled slightly. "Wenhe is too worried. When I traveled to Guanzhong, I heard that Xichuan is full of powerful people, and Liu Zhang can't control it. Even if Liu Bei can take Yizhou, it will take at least a year and a half to calm down the rebellion of the Quartet and be unable to enter Hanzhong. As long as Wei Take Youzhou, and you will have enough time to attack Hanzhong."

As soon as this remark came out, Jia Xu squinted at Sima Yi and stopped talking.But his heart was churning, what was Sima Yi's plan?How could smell the smell of conspiracy, the old fox decided to stay out of it.

Cao Cao originally wanted to send troops to Youzhou, and he felt that it was reasonable, but he was still a little worried: "Then let Liu Bei take Yizhou?"

"I heard that Sun Quan lent Jingzhou to Liu Bei. My lord, why don't you reward Sun Quan so that he can attack Jingzhou while Liu Bei is away?"

"Hiss~" Cao Cao bared his teeth again, rewarding Sun Quan generously?How can we satisfy Sun Quan's appetite?Could it be said that Jin and Sun Quan are Wu Gong?That is absolutely impossible.

"Let's discuss this matter again. Gongda sent someone to send a letter of war to Xu Shu, and asked him to fight on the twelfth day of February! Make Zhu Guang the prefect of Lujiang, and Wen Lie will go north immediately."

Among Cao's eight tiger cavalry, Xiahoudun, Xiahouyuan, Cao Ren, and Cao Xiu were the most outstanding. Xiahoudun rarely fought after losing one eye. At this time, he was sitting in Yanzhou; , only Cao Xiu in Lujiang is relatively leisurely.Among the other four generals, Cao Hong is greedy for money and Cao Chun is lustful. Although he is brave, he has a bad reputation, and his prestige in the army is not enough. .

Zhou Cang paid close attention to the movements of Cao Cao, Sun Quan, and Liu Bei all the time. Cao Cao stationed troops, Sun Quan ignored them, and Liu Bei went west to Yizhou. All of this was not what he wanted to see.

Zhou Wen's white hair and wrinkles on his forehead increased significantly. Xiao Deng Ai thought hard every day, and the 17-year-old boy seemed a little mature.Although the two younger brothers were rescued, because Yun Lu learned that his father had been killed by Cao Pi, he felt resentful, so he called for orders to fight every now and then, but then he stopped for some reason. Then I found out I was pregnant.Only Dianman was happy, and Xin Xianying was eighteen, and the two finally got married and consummated their marriage.

"Hahaha, after a lot of thinking, I finally came up with a good way to break the situation." Zhou Wen seemed a few years younger.

"tell me the story."

"To break the situation, external forces are needed. It is no longer possible for Liu Bei to enter Sichuan. Only Sun Quan can help. Although Sun Quan is a successful man, he will never fall behind when it is profitable!" Zhou Wen is full of confidence. "Cao Cao's army is in Jizhou, Qingzhou and Yanzhou, and the defense against Jiangdong is relatively lax. Why don't my lord use the Lujiang River as a bait to lure Sun Quan to send troops?"

Lujiang?Lujiang guarded by Cao Xiu?Lujiang is rich and prosperous, a land of fish and rice, which is really exciting, and the acquisition of Lujiang and Huainan land to Sun Quan is very important for Jiangdong's defense.But Cao Xiu isn't that easy to deal with, is he?

Seeing Zhou Cang's bewildered expression, Zhou Wen smiled slightly. "Profit will make Sun Quan tempted. What he is worried about is that there is a chance of winning. Don't forget that Gongming has been in Lujiang for several years and he is in charge of Lujiang. The secret spy department has countless spies in Lujiang. No problem!"

A few words to wake up the dreamer, yes, who else knows Lujiang better than Xu Huang. "It's not suitable for Gongming to go there in person. Xu Gai grew up in Lujiang, so you can send Xu Gai to go out." Zhou Cang thought for a while and said, "You will tell Gongming and his son about this, and Gongming will teach you the opportunity. This time, the battalions will not move, and Xu Gai will go to war." Gai and Deng Ai led [-] recruits to help in the battle."

"Ling Zixing went to Jiangdong to lobby Sun Quan." The mission has always been Wang Can, involving cooperation between the two armies, Zhou Cang temporarily changed it to Yang Rui.

At this time, Sun Quan was scolding Liu Bei for not keeping his promise. He lent Jingzhou to Liu Bei and promised Liu Bei his sister, but the big-eared thief did not attack Cao Cao but entered Sichuan instead. How could Sun Quan not be annoyed.

"The big-eared thief has always been back-and-forth, and never believed what he said. My lord, why don't you take advantage of his absence and attack Jingzhou? Lu Meng is not willing to be a pioneer." Lu Meng, as a general who was single-handedly selected by Sun Quan, immediately volunteered.

Lu Su cried out: "Although Liu Bei did not attack Cao Cao, but he said something first, he took Yizhou and returned it to Jingzhou. At this time, it is not my responsibility to go to war. Moreover, I am an enemy of Cao Cao, and it is not good for me to turn against Liu Bei."

Zhang Zhao said without hesitation: "The Jiaozhi people are willing to join, and all ethnic groups in Shanyue are basically at peace, and there is no need to worry about it. It is just a matter of war, which needs to be carefully considered."

Zhuge Jin was worried about his younger brother and thought of another excuse. "My lord, the princess is still in Jingzhou, sending troops to Jingzhou may not be good for the princess."

Yu Fan laughed and said, "This is easy. My lord, why don't you send your confidants to Jingzhou to see the princess, and ask the princess to come back under the pretense of your mother's illness. I heard that Liu Bei has only one son, named Liu Chan, and I will bring Liu Chan back with me at that time. Liu Bei refuses to return Jingzhou, hehe..."

Pretend that the mother is sick?Sun Quan glared at Yu Fan viciously, and after thinking about it, there seemed to be no good excuse.Sun Quan called Zhou Shan to the secret room when he turned his head, and after explaining it carefully, Zhou Shan took a few relatives and pretended to be merchants to Jingzhou overnight.

On the second day, Yang Rui came.Yang Rui told Sun Quan about taking advantage of the Lujiang River, and Zhang Zhao reprimanded him, "Your Lord has been fighting Cao Cao endlessly. Is this to bring me in to break your siege?"

Yang Rui smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang made a mistake. It was Yuan Mai who fought against Cao Cao. He wanted to avenge his father and brother, and regain their foundation. What's wrong? Yan, it's just that the timing was wrong. Liao Hou and Wu Hou have always been mutually beneficial since they formed an alliance, how have they ever lost half a point to Jiangdong?"

It is true that he did not lose more than half a point, but Jiang Dong did not take advantage of it at all, and he got it in exchange for a little advantage.But on this point, Zhou Cang is indeed kinder than Liu Bei, clearly marking the price and trading fairly.

Yang Rui went on to say: "Let's not talk about Marquis Liao, just say that Marquis Wu sent troops to Lujiang, which is beneficial to Jiangdong. If you don't take it now, the chance will be gone!"

"To put it lightly, whether we can get Lujiang is another matter. I spend money and food in Jiangdong, and it is inevitable that soldiers will be injured."

"Hehe, Marquis Liao knows that Marquis Wu is worried about this, so he is willing to send [-] troops and prepare his own food and grass to help!"

Zhang Zhao, Lu Su, Yu Fan, Bu Zhi and the others exchanged glances with each other, which was more or less the same, but Zhou Cang could not have sent someone to grab the victory, right? "I don't know who is the commander of the army?"

"This man is Xu Gai, the son of my general Xu Huang. Although he is young, he is as brave as his father was. Moreover, Xu Gai grew up freely in Lujiang. He is familiar with geography and can be a guide for the army."

It turned out to be a young general, so don't worry, there is no need to worry about the two main generals fighting for power.Zhang Zhao nodded slightly to express his approval.
