Chapter 253: Revealing old scores

PreviousBack to directoryNext
 Sima Zhao was curious. After all, Cao Yu would soon ascend the throne and become the emperor of Wei, but what did his father mean by this?

"Nothing!"

As Sima Yi spoke, he turned around and walked toward the house, leaving Sima Zhao in a daze.

……

Three days later——

Cao Yu's coronation ceremony was held as scheduled, and he officially became the third emperor of the Wei Dynasty.

Nothing special happened in the middle.

After the coronation ceremony, Cao Yu finally felt relieved.

However, Cao Lin, King of Donghai, who originally wanted to compete for the throne,

After learning that King Cao Yu of Yan had ascended the throne, he knew that if he wanted to compete with Cao Yu, he would have little chance of winning, so he gave up the idea of ​​competing for the throne.

Although Cao Rui was very kind to both of them when he was in power, Cao Yu, King of Yan, had 20,000 Qingzhou soldiers in his hands, while Cao Lin had no soldiers and horses. He was just an idle prince. < /p>

As the saying goes, those who understand current affairs are heroes.

……

The coronation ceremony of the new emperor was held in full swing here in Cao Wei, and the Han Emperor Liu Chan in Chang'an City,

He has not been idle either.

Because the day after Yang Fu left Chang'an for the second time, Chang'an welcomed the envoy from Soochow again.

"Retreat?"

Liu Chan sneered and said: "Sun Shiwan wants me to retreat now...isn't it a bit late?"

After Liu Chan finished speaking, he looked at the Soochow envoy with a sneer.

"Your Majesty!" Sun Hong, the envoy from Soochow, heard this and said hurriedly: "Han and Wu have always had a good alliance. Now that your Majesty has captured our Soochow prefecture, doesn't he mean to destroy the alliance?"

"Mr. Sun is so calculating... But," Liu Chan paused, then sneered: "Is it because I have a bad memory, or is Mr. Sun too forgetful?"

"When it comes to destroying the Han-Wu alliance... I am not as worthy as your lord Sun Shiwan."

"Sun Shiwan?" Sun Hong was confused for a moment.

"Hahaha..." Liu Chan laughed immediately: "Sun Quan went on several Northern Expeditions, often dispatching hundreds of thousands of troops..." Liu Chan said, looking at the Han civil and military officials in the hall, and then said: "I call him Sun Shiwan, is there something wrong?"

"Hahaha..."

In an instant, all the Han civil and military ministers in the entire hall started laughing, which made Sun Hong not know how to respond.

Because first of all Liu Chan is the emperor of the Han Dynasty, so he naturally does not need to respect the emperor of Soochow.

What's more, he wasn't wrong either.

Just when everyone was laughing, Liu Chan raised his hand slightly to signal the ministers to quiet down.

Then he deliberately asked with a straight face: "In the 24th year of Jian'an...didn't Sun Shiwan destroy the alliance?"

"crossing the river in white clothes,

"Sneak attack on our army's retreat;" Liu Chan became more and more excited as he spoke: "Later, he intercepted and killed my father and son, a former general of the Han Dynasty... At that time, did Sun Shiwan still remember the Han-Wu alliance?"

Sun Hong was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

I thought to myself that this all happened in the Year of the Monkey, why are you still opening up old scores?

Besides, wasn’t it because Guan Yu acted unreasonably before attacking Guan Yu?

My Lord wanted to marry her to the Qin and Jin Dynasties, but Guan Yu said, "How can a tiger girl marry a dog son..."

Sun Hong wanted to refute this, but Liu Chan went on to say: "Even this time, could it be that I attack you Soochow first?"

Now Sun Hong didn't know how to answer.

Because Soochow is wrong.

"Don't tell me about the Han-Wu alliance...the constraint and backstabbing..." Liu Chan said, staring at Sun Hong fiercely: "Have you done enough in Soochow?"

"While I and the Prime Minister were marching westward, Sun Shiwan united with Cao Wei to attack our Han Dynasty." Liu Chan said and suddenly laughed: "It's a pity that there is no one in Soochow, and the 80,000-strong army has not been able to enter Yizhou.



"Why..." Liu Chan suddenly asked: "You allow Soochow to attack my Han Yizhou, but you don't allow my Han cavalry to attack your Soochow prefectures and counties?"

"Mr. Sun!" Liu Chan suddenly asked: "If Soochow captures our Han Dynasty's Yizhou, will you agree to withdraw our troops?"

"This——"

Although Sun Hong was the Zhongshu Ling of Soochow and a great scholar in Kuaiji, he didn't know how to refute Liu Chan's aggressiveness.

Because Liu Chan is responsible.

Soochow originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that Liu Chan and Zhuge Liang were far away in the Western Expedition and had no time to visit eastward, so they accepted Cao Wei's plan to jointly attack the Han Dynasty.

I originally wanted to take the opportunity to capture Yizhou, but I didn't expect that the 80,000-strong army could not even break through the Yangtze River, and even let Li Feng lead his army to capture Zigui.

As for Soochow's 80,000 navy troops, after that battle, there were only less than 20,000 soldiers left.

At this time, Li Yi, the governor of Jianning, suddenly led his army to attack Guilin and Jiaozhou, and took over the two counties of Guilin and Jiaozhou in just over a month.

Later, although Sun Quan sent Lu Xun and led 50,000 troops south to recover the two counties, it was a pity that the Wu army has not been able to shake one of the two counties to this day.

Guilin and Jiaozhou were captured by the Han Dynasty, and more than ten counties in the south were no longer under Soochow's control.

After the forcible retrieval failed, Sun Quan sent Sun Hong as envoy to Chang'an, hoping to re-establish an alliance with the Han Dynasty. Naturally, he had only one purpose.

I hope that the Han Dynasty will withdraw its troops from Jiaogui County.

"Go back and tell Sun Shiwan -" Liu Chan said loudly: "If you want me to withdraw our troops, unless Sun Quan immediately goes to the imperial title and bows his head to my great Han Dynasty."

"Your Majesty—" Sun Hong's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe his ears. Liu Chan actually dared to say such a thing.

However, before he could speak, Liu Chan suddenly waved his hand: "Send off guests——"

Nima——

Sun Hong was the one who was ignored.

He never dreamed that he would encounter such an encounter during his mission to Chang'an. He still wanted to talk for it, but several imperial guards had already stepped forward and made a gesture of invitation.

Moreover, their faces were not good-looking. If Sun Hong hesitated even a little, they would take him out, so Sun Hong had to leave the hall in frustration.

The mission failed, so Sun Hong did not stay in Chang'an and hurried back to Wuchang early the next morning.

……

Wuchang Imperial Palace.

When Sun Hong reported Liu Chan's words to Sun Quan in detail, Sun Quan suddenly became furious and shouted angrily: "Asshole, bastard!"

"Your Majesty——"

Sun Hong was so frightened that he trembled all over and fell to his knees on the ground.

"Say-" Sun Quan asked sharply: "Then what else did Liu Adou say?"

"Your Majesty——" Sun Hongna still dared to say.

But Sun Quan was already furious. As the king of a country, how could he be so humiliated by the other party?

"Say, I'll let you say——" Sun Quan made a bang and overturned the table in front of him.

"He...he...he also said..."

"What else did he say?"

"Your Majesty...yes, yes...it's Sun Shiwan."

Sun Quan suddenly stopped because he didn't know what it meant, so he asked in confusion: "Why does Liu Adou call me Sun Shiwan?"

"Yes...yes...yes yes..." Sun Hong suddenly became a little slurred: "He said that His Majesty would often send an army of 100,000 to conquer, so he called him Sun Shiwan."

"???"

Sun Quan suddenly wasn't so angry, at least he calmed down for a rare moment.

A hundred thousand troops conquered.

But his calmness did not last long. After a few breaths, Sun Quan roared angrily again: "Asshole, bastard, Liu Adou, you bullied me too much!"

Sun Quan was not a fool, so he quickly understood what Liu Chan's "Sun Shiwan" meant. It meant that you would conquer with an army of 100,000 every time.

Is there any chance of victory?
