Chapter 298 Zhou Yu's Plan

Chen Gong finally clasped his fists and said, "General, I think we can temporarily put Zhuge Liang's suggestions on the camp. As for how to do it, we can make a decision based on the actual situation." Ailang nodded, "Well. I can only do this first."

Chen Gong said again: "General, there is another thing that needs to be considered now, which is the mission to Jiangdong." Ai Lang was stunned and then asked angrily: "Are you planning to lobby Sun Jian to join us to deal with Cao Cao? How is this possible?"

Chen Gong smiled and said, "This is not necessarily the case. Sun Jian is not a fool, and Zhou Yu is a far-reaching person. They should be able to see the huge threat from Cao Cao now! Cao Cao is not only a huge threat to us and Liu Bei, but also to Jiangdong! Once Jingzhou or we collapse, Jiangdong will have to face Cao Cao's threat directly! At that time, did he, Jiangdong have the confidence to fight against Cao Cao independently?" Ai Lang frowned and said, "That's right. But Old Chen, I think Sun Jian and Zhou Yu's previous behavior were simply to seize the territory of our and Liu Bei while we and Liu Bei were dealing with Cao Cao! I think they didn't see any threat from Cao Cao at all, they only saw Cao Cao coming, and they had the opportunity to take advantage of it!"

Chen Gong couldn't help laughing and clasped his fists and said, "What the General said is not without reason. But the situation is different from before. I think Sun Jian should have changed his attitude, otherwise how could they still hold their troops when Cao Ren's army attacks Jingzhou?" Ailang felt that what Chen Gong said made sense and couldn't help but nod.

Chen Gong clasped his fists and said, "General, why not Ling Wenhe is on the mission to Jiangdong, and he can definitely find out the truth and reality of Jiangdong and bring us a strong support!"

Ai Lang felt that this method was good, but he said worriedly: "I'm worried that Sun Jian and Zhou Yu would not shed tears without seeing the coffin. Not only did they refuse to join forces with us, but they killed Lao Jia. Wouldn't I have a big loss!"

Chen Gong smiled and said, "General, don't worry! Take a step back and say, the Sun family still wants to seize Jingzhou. Even in this situation, Sun Jian will never hurt Wenhe! He will never think that when our army attacks Jingzhou, our army will defeat their good things! Therefore, even in the worst case, Sun Jian will never hurt Wenhe. Instead, he will treat him with courtesy to stabilize us!" Ai Lang thought for a while, nodded, and frowned, "Okay, then do it like this!" Chen Gong clasped his fists again

He said: "In addition, his subordinates believe that the candidates for the mission to Jingzhou are not as good as those who have sent Xu Shu to change to Xu Yuanzhi. Although Wang Dong had been on Jingzhou, he was not as good as Xu Shu who lived in Jingzhou for a while. In addition, Xu Shu's talent is not inferior to me, it is definitely more appropriate to go to Jingzhou." Ai Lang thought for a while, and felt that Liu Bei was about to yell at him, there would be no danger in Xu Shu's going to go, and he could also notice many situations and details that Wang Dong could not notice. As soon as he thought of this, he nodded and said: "Okay, let Xu Shu go to Jingzhou."

Ailang returned home and was about to have a wife and children play with her, but she heard that they were invited by Xiao to go to the Xiao family for a banquet, and they had to come back very late at night. The so-called Xiao family is the residence where Xiao family lives. Friends who have read the previous article must be familiar with it. Yes, the so-called Xiao family is actually Zhen Mi's aunt. On the same day, Yuan Shao was facing the crisis of overthrowing. Ailang happened to lead his army into Jizhou, and brought Xiao and Zhen Mi to Xuzhou. Since then, Ailang has never seen each other again.

After Xiao and Zhen Mi. At this time, when he heard the maid talking, he couldn't help but recall her appearance, especially Zhen Mi. When he thought of her beautiful, soft and charming appearance, Ailang couldn't help but feel itchy. Ailang suddenly came back to his senses and quickly threw the messy thoughts behind his head, muttering as if he was self-deprecating: "You can't be too lustful as a man! You have so many beautiful wives, and you still want to think about what others do!" He immediately calmed down and went to the study to review the official documents.

Sun Gan lived in Xuzhou for a few days until Xu Shu returned from the north, and left Xuzhou with Xu Shu and returned to Jingzhou. At about the same time, Jia Xu, who was in Huainan, left Huainan and crossed the Yangtze River according to Ailang's order, and entered the territory of the Sun family. The Sun family attached great importance to Jia Xu's arrival, and sent his important minister Lu Su to greet him personally, and accompanied Jia Xu and his group to Chaisang. Chaisang is located on the west bank of Poyang Lake, close to the Yangtze River. In terms of geographical location, it is probably the current Jiujiang City. During the late Han and Three Kingdoms period, the capital of the Eastern Wu power was in Chaisang.

Jia Xu rested in the Chaisang Inn for a night, and received a summoning from Sun Jian the next day. Jia Xu, accompanied by Lu Su, came straight to the hall of Sun Jian's mansion. He saw Sun Jian sitting high, with a group of civil and military officials standing by, so he smiled and walked up to hold his fists and bowed: "Jia Xu, the envoy of the cavalry, has seen General Sun!"

Sun Jian smiled slightly, "Mr. Jia Xu, don't be polite." He paused, "I wonder what Mr. Jia Xu is doing here?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "One is to resolve the crisis of our army, and the other is to help General Sun overcome the difficulties."

Sun Jian laughed loudly and glanced at Jia Xu, "Lu Bu just lost Qingzhou, and I know the situation is in a critical situation. But I don't know what difficulties are there in Jiangdong?"

Jia Xu smiled and said, "I came with my lord sincerity, why should General Sun hide it?"

Sun Jian laughed and nodded, "Mr. Jia Xu, please speak quickly!" Then he said, "Since Mr. Jia Xu has said that, I will not go around with him! I know that the purpose of Mr. Hu is here to deal with Cao Cao! Cao Cao is now the only one with the emperor in his hand and has a million troops. His strength is far beyond other princes! He attacked Lu Bu before, but now he is attacking Jingzhou. His ambition is in the world. I, Jiangdong, naturally, cannot protect myself! For the current plan, joining forces to fight Cao is the only way to fight against Cao Cao!" Speaking of this, he paused and looked at Jia Xu, "I, Jiangdong, naturally, are willing to join Lu Bu and Liu Bei, but we have been fighting with the three of us, but how can we let our three of us let go of our guard against each other?"

Jia Xu clasped his fists in admiration and said, "General Sun's words pointed directly at the critical point, and I admire him very much! In fact, I think it is not a problem to be cautious about each other! Now that Cao Cao's threat is imminent, we are not mediocre and stupid people, so we naturally understand the importance of sincere cooperation and will never do stupid things, so there is no need to worry about this matter! My lord said that as long as General Sun is willing to form an alliance, General Sun can lead the army in and out of my Huainan area!"

Sun Jian was quite surprised, "Lu Bu is very generous!" Then he nodded, "Mr. Jia Xu is right, Lu Bu, I, Liu Bei, although the three of them dare not say they are heroes, they are definitely heroes. We all understand how great the threat of Cao Cao is. At least we will not do stupid things to each other before defeating Cao Cao! But I have to say some things ahead!"

"Please say General Sun!"

Sun Jian glanced at Jia Xu and said, "Although Cao Cao was also a threat to our Jiangdong, he could not threaten my Jiangdong after all! My Jiangdong sent troops to eliminate a future threat, but this could not convince the people under my rule and my Jiangdong's 300,000 soldiers! After all, whether it was Lu Bu or Liu Bei, they were our enemies before. There were not enough visible benefits, and I could not convince my Jiangdong children to join forces with Lu Bu or Liu Bei to fight against Cao Cao's powerful enemy!"

Jia Xu asked with a smile: "With General Sun's wishes, I don't know what to do?"

Sun Jian said: "It's very simple! Liu Bei and Lu Bu must come up with enough price! We don't want much in Jiangdong. Just Lu Bu returns Lujiang to us, and Liu Bei gives us the Xiling area, and my Jiangdong soldiers will do their best to deal with Cao Cao with the two alliances!"

Jia Xu asked calmly, "What if Liu Bei and my lord have a family that cannot do it?"

Sun Jian smiled and said, "If the family cannot do it, I will not help that family." Jia Xu looked clear and nodded, "I understand. If the two families cannot do it, General Sun will sit back and watch us and Liu Bei be wiped out by Cao Cao!" Sun Jian smiled and said, "I don't want to see that scene. I just hope that Lu Bu and Liu Bei will not lose the big picture because of a small loss!" Jia Xu bowed and said, "I understand! But the matter involves the major issue of cede land, but I cannot do it. I have to rush back to Xuzhou to report to my lord!" Sun Jian nodded, "This is naturally, I am waiting for the good news for sir!" Jia Xu bowed to Sun Jian and left.

As soon as Jia Xu left, Lu Su couldn't help asking: "Lord, why is it different from what we discussed before?"

Sun Jian looked at Zhou Yu with a smile. Zhou Yu smiled and said, "I suggested that the lord change his strategy."

Lu Su looked at Zhou Yu and said anxiously: "Gongjin, this seems inappropriate! This is really a suspicion of taking advantage of the situation. If it arouses the disgust of Lu Bu and Liu Bei, wouldn't this alliance be ruined?"

Zhou Yu said confidently: "Zi Jing is worried too much! I expected that Lu Bu and Liu Bei have no choice but to cooperate with us! Cao Cao is now in a big situation, even if Lu Bu and Liu Bei join forces, there is almost no chance of winning in this battle. If Jingzhou is lost, Lu Bu's situation will be even more dangerous, and it will be a matter of time before he loses! The powerful Lu Bu and Liu Bei are very clear about it! However, if they only pay a small price like Lujiang and Xiliang, they can get our army's support, but the situation is completely different! The total strength of the three families is more than 900,000, which is not much different from Cao Cao's strength. We are on the defensive side, so you will have a great confidence to repel Cao's army! On the one hand, they are in the abyss of defeat, but on the other hand, they can overcome the crisis. Lu Bu and Liu Bei are both smart people and will make wise choices!"
