Jiang Ban angrily rebuked, and said it was against Zhu Cheng, and secretly said to Zhuge Dan. Zhuge Dan used the name of eliminating rebellion to call on the military and civilians to become independent, which shows that Zhuge Dan was still a Wei minister and only targeted Sima Zhao. If he followed Zhu Cheng's advice to ask for help from Eastern Wu, he would give up his identity as Wei minister and become a minister of Eastern Wu. In this way, he would confirm the name of rebellion, lose his righteousness, and even more the hearts of military and civilians. The army was not famous, which probably refers to this.

Zhu Cheng was not unclear about this. In his opinion, there was no difference between declaring war on Sima Zhao and betraying Wei. Who doesn’t know that the current Wei State’s government is a hall of words for Sima Zhao. Since that is the case, it would be better to abandon the fig leaf of status and join the people of Wu to gain some benefits.

"Jiang Zifang, don't spit people with blood. The army is in front of you. If you don't look for foreign aid, how can you defeat the Sima thief?" Zhu Cheng saw that Jiang Ban was aggressive and immediately felt guilty.

"Zhu Zifang, you are also a Wei minister. How dare you make such rebellious words and want to learn from Sima's thief?" Jiang Ban said furiously when he heard this.

"Sima thief controlled the court and would inevitably go east under the name of rebellion. Wouldn't the Wu people come by themselves without looking for the people of Wu? Isn't it the same then?" Zhu Cheng knew that he was unreasonable, but he didn't want to lose face, so he denounced.

"Absurd! The lord must not listen to this person's words. Jiangdong wolf is ambitious and is eyeing the two Huaihe lands. Never lead the wolf into the house!" Jiang Ban knelt in front of Zhuge Dan in a hurry.

"Lord, when the Sima thief army arrives, Shouchun City will inevitably be out of water. If you want to leave, it will be too late to regret it!" Zhu Cheng also knelt down and cried.

Zhuge Dan looked at Jiang Zifang, then at Zhu Zifang. He knew both of them. He couldn't make a decision for a moment and helped them stand up and said, "You both are my confidants. I will think about this matter carefully, so I will get up quickly."

The two generals had no choice but to stand up and stared at each other, and no one was willing to give in. When the generals saw Jiang Zifang, Zhu Zifang fought and blushed and laughed secretly. Jiao Yi and Jiang Ban were in good condition. They followed Zhuge Dan for many years, and knew that it would be useless to give more advice. They changed the topic and said: "Lord, now the army has been prepared, and I am just waiting for the lord to be transferred."

Zhuge Dan had a plan, but he took care of Jiang Ban, so he asked Jiang Ban. In fact, all the generals present could see that Zhuge Gong did not say anything to Jiang Ban, but he did not change the matters he asked about Jiang Ban. Now that he was disturbed by Zhu Cheng, Jiang Ban's strategy of "taking the initiative to defeat each one" was lost, and it was obvious that Jiang Ban lost half of Zhu Cheng.

Jiang Ban knew that the overall situation should be the priority, so he replied: "Our army is currently composed of five military horses, namely headquarters, Huaibei, Huainan, Lujiang, and military camps. In terms of combat power, the headquarters is the strongest and the military camps are the weakest. The other three places are almost the same. If they follow the old system and govern their respective troops, it may be difficult to effectively control the army and cannot exert their combat power. Therefore, the army should be dispersed and redistributed."

All the generals present were Zhuge Dan's confidant generals. Seeing Jiang Ban say this, they listened carefully. Zhuge Dan nodded slightly, preparing to see how Jiang Ban divided it.

"The army can be divided into three armies. The first army consists of the lord and the generals of the army and horses of the headquarters, and from the other four divisions, they will draw elite soldiers to supplement the headquarters and form an elite army." Jiang Ban decided to make up his mind and said endlessly.

When the generals heard this, they were all happy. The generals present were divided into two categories, one was the generals under Zhuge Dan's headquarters; the other was Zhuge Dan's confidant, but served in other areas. The generals had no more than one thousand confidants, and the few were even only two or three hundred. According to Jiang Ban's plan, the people selected elite troops from more than 100,000 troops to supplement their troops. Not only did the command force greatly increase, but their status also leaped from a partial general to the commander of the army. This was to increase military power for everyone.

From another perspective, except for Zhuge Dan's confidant, the other four teams are in a "recruitment" state. Both combat effectiveness and loyalty are inferior to the 7,000 people in Zhuge Dan's headquarters. This distribution of Jiang Ban is equivalent to concentrating the elites of other departments in the headquarters, so that the number of people in the headquarters will be expanded, and the degree of elites and loyalty will not change. On the contrary, the threat of the four teams drawn by the elites is greatly reduced, and there is no reason to choose. The war is about to come, and it is common to draw troops to form elites. Knowing that this is a plan to remove firewood from the cauldron, he can't help but think of it. Even Zhu Cheng had to admire Jiang Ban, and easily resolved the potential problems of the army invisibly.

"The Second Army was dominated by Huaibei and the old generals of the lords from all over the country. They dispersed the two Huaihe and Lujiang troops and reorganized them, and some of the generals were transferred to the military field army - the military field army as the third army. The military field army was dominated by other generals, and their military power was increased to purify their hearts and minds. All the three armies were governed by the lords." After a careful design, everyone present praised them. Zhuge Dan was very happy, so he ordered Jiang Ban to be fully responsible for handling the matter, which was limited to half a month, and those who did not follow the military law were engaged in military law.

That night, Zhuge Dan called his youngest son Zhuge Liang into the room, talked about the division of troops in Jiang Ban, and asked, "Can Zhongsi understand his meaning?" Zhuge Liang's name was Zhongsi, and at the age of thirteen, he saw his father asking questions and answered respectfully: "Although my father's generals are close to each other, most of them are partial generals. Although the external generals are close to each other, most of them are old generals. If the relatives are close to each other, everyone will be resentful, and they will be in chaos for a long time. Therefore, the closest and confidant generals are strong in the army, and the last generals are given military power outside, and then they will be harmonious."

When Zhuge Dan saw his youngest son was smart, he was happy. All the sons under his knees were unfortunately dead, and only Zhuge Liang was the only one, so he loved him very much. At this time, the servants came to report, and the general Zhu Cheng of the Yamen asked for a look. Zhuge Dan pondered for a moment and knew what Zhu Cheng was doing. He immediately asked someone to take Zhuge Liang back to his room and summon Zhu Cheng into the room.

When Zhu Cheng entered, Zhuge Dan said in a deep voice: "Is Zi Fang coming about the daytime dispute?"

Zhu Cheng knelt down and said, "He came for the security of the Lord."

"Oh? How do you say this?" Zhuge Dan thought to himself that although Zhu Cheng was a martial artist, his lobbyist style could never be changed.

"Today's words are not Zhu Cheng's selfishness, but they are actually thinking about the lord." Zhu Cheng continued to circle around.

When Zhuge Dan saw Zhu Cheng being talkative, he couldn't help but remember Xuan Long who teased him in front of everyone not long ago. He felt disgusted and said, "Zi Fangzhi said that."

Zhu Chuang planned to wait for Zhuge Dan to ask and spoke, but he thought that his lord could not speak quickly. Although he didn't know why, he didn't dare to say it. He said with a tough bullet: "I know that I offend my lord's power, but it's important to say it. If the lord hates me for his repeated words, I would like to die in front of my lord to repay my lord's kindness."

Zhuge Dan was famous for his military discipline, but he knew the soldiers and had always been a strong supporter. Therefore, his subordinates were loyal to Zhuge Dan. Now seeing Zhu Cheng continues to talk, he is helpless. He can't kill him just because his generals are long-lasting. Let's see what he said before making plans. So Zhuge Dan said, "Let's talk about it, if you talk nonsense, don't blame the military law for being ruthless!"

Zhu Cheng knew that this was a warning given to him by Zhuge Dan. When he came late at night, how could Zhuge Dan not know what was going on? It was nothing more than a dispute with Jiang Ban during the day. Surrender was not a glorious thing, especially persuading the lord to bow down to others, which was even more dangerous. But on the other hand, since the lord was ready to listen, it means there was still a chance. But... I can't talk about it anymore.

"Sima thieves hide evil intentions and spread rumors. The lord's connection with Dongwu has long been rumored. Even if the lord is clean, who can believe it in this world? Instead of doing so, it is better to join forces with Jiangdong to help, and this is one of them."

"If there is no foreign aid in the surrounding areas of Shouchun, there is only one way to defend. The three kingdoms of Wei, Wu and Shu can all be the public enemies. If Wu can be used as close aid and Shu can work together to resist Wei, then the great achievements can be achieved with half the effort. If it is independent of Huainan, long-term poverty will be lost. This is the second one."

"Although the lord is brave, he will eventually fight against the crowd with few people and be exhausted. The generals have not yet considered victory, but think about defeat before they can stand in an invincible place. The people of Wu have been coveting the land of Huainan for a long time, and they will be happy to see the lord ask for help. If there is any chance, the lord can retreat to the land of Wu and Yue, and still hold a high position to protect the clan. These are the third ones. With these three things, I think that the lord must join forces with Dongwu and resist the old thief of Sima!" Although Zhu Cheng is usually slick, he is righteous when talking about the righteous things, which makes people dare not look down on him.

Zhuge Dan closed his eyes and pondered. Since he decided to revolt in Huainan, he has long regarded life and death indifferently. Now, when Zhu Cheng said this, he remembered his youngest son Zhuge Liang, and his heart became soft.

The next day, Zhuge Dan ordered Zhu Cheng to join the envoy and rushed to Jiangdong to submit to the reinforcements. Zhu Cheng took the order happily, and the generals were very unhappy. He turned against Cao Wei and surrendered to Sun Wu, which repeatedly made the momentum in the army depressed. Jiang Banshang wanted to come forward to make advice, but Jiao Yi grabbed the corner of his clothes.

"The lord has made up his plan, and it is useless to say more. This is the general trend and cannot be stopped." Jiao Yi secretly comforted Jiang Ban.

Jiang Ban knew that he was helpless when he heard this and left with his sleeves.

Sun Wu has been in Jiangdong for four generations. Now the Lord of Wu is Sun Liang, the youngest son of Sun Quan. Sun Quan originally named the eldest son Sun Deng as the crown prince and inherited the Wu regime. Sun Deng is both talented and virtuous, so it can be said that he is the most outstanding successor of Wu. Who would have thought that Sun Deng died at the age of 33? When he was dying, he submitted a letter to Sun Quan and mentioned many intentional suggestions to the country. After seeing this, Sun Quan felt very sad and could not help but cry whenever he mentioned his eldest son.

Because the second son was worried about his death early, the position of the prince fell on the head of Sun He, the three-character Sun Luban. Sun He's elder sister, Princess Quan, and finally, Madam Wang, was very despised by Sun He's mother, Madam Wang, and often slandered Sun He and his son in front of Sun Quan. Once Sun Quan was seriously ill, Sun Luban told Sun Quan that Madam Wang was sick when she saw her father was sick and often showed a happy expression on her face. After hearing this, Sun Quan began to alienate Madam Wang, and Madam Wang died of depression. Sun He was also framed by his sister and was deposed.

Sun Liang was Sun Quan's youngest son, so he was very concerned about him. Sun Luban first married Zhou Yu's son Zhou Xun, and later married Quan Cong, an important official of the Wu State. Therefore, Sun Luban often praised the daughter of Quan in front of Sun Quan, so he married Quan's daughter to Sun Liang and became the crown princess.

This trip seemed simple. For several years, because of the prince, there was a private struggle inside and outside the palace, many important officials and generals in the Eastern Wu died. But the matter was not over yet, Sun Luban secretly engaged in a miserable relationship with Sun Jun, the important royal minister of the royal family, and colluded with him. At that time, Zhuge Ke was entrusted by Sun Quan on his deathbed, and the president assisted Sun Liang in state affairs, and was killed by Sun Jun. Zhuge Jin's lineage in Jiangdong was cut off. Soon, Sun Jun passed away, and the military and political power of the Wu Kingdom fell into the hands of his younger brother Sun Jun.
