Chapter 874 Jiangdong also has discordant voices
After Liu Bei prepared, he set out towards Chibi with Xu Shu and Wei Yan.
Of course, Liu Bei must come to discuss with Sun Ce at such a critical moment. Liu Bei felt that what Xu Shu said was very reasonable. If he doesn't show his presence now, how can he prove that he has made great contributions in front of others in the future?
At this time, Sun Ce had arrived at Chibi and was preparing to deal with Liu Yu's attack. Zhou Yu was arranged by Sun Ce for some things. Now after Sun Ce received the news of Liu Yu's serial warships, he immediately sent people to inform Zhou Yu to come back to discuss.
But before Zhou Yu returned, many Jiangdong ministers had already come to Sun Ce's tent.
Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Gu Yong, Yu Fan, Zhuge Jin, Lu Su, and representative figures from various aristocratic families in Jiangdong all came to Sun Ce.
"Lord, now the situation is in crisis, and Liu Yu adopts a series of warship strategies in the cold winter. My only advantage in Jiangdong has disappeared. If there is no change, Jiangdong will be in danger." Zhang Zhao, as the leader of civil servants, was the first to speak.
"Zibu, even if Liu Yu has done all the tasks, my little overlord Sun Ce will not be afraid of him. If he wants to attack, I, Sun Ce, will never let him live a good life! At worst! Die together!" Sun Ce's attitude was very firm, and he wanted to fight against Liu Yu.
Seeing Sun Ce so firm, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Zhuge Jin and others looked relieved. Only such a lord can protect Jiangdong.
"Lord, I guess Liu Yu will come to our army soon. If our army does not respond as soon as possible, it may not be able to compete with Liu Yu. I suggest that the lord contact Cao Cao immediately and ask him to send troops to help." Lu Su immediately turned his words to confront Liu Yu.
Sun Ce agreed with Lu Su's suggestion and said, "I have made an appointment with Cao Mengde in advance. Once Liu Yu takes action, Cao Mengde will definitely respond."
"Lord, I think it's better to send an envoy to the place. Cao Mengde would not sit and watch his lord fight with Liu Yuhe clam, and he would benefit from a fisherman." Zhang Hong made a scheming and told him everything that Cao Cao might do.
Sun Ce thought this matter was reasonable. Cao Cao had always been treacherous, and no one could guarantee whether he really kept his promise. After being in troubled times for so long, Sun Ce understood that if he believed in others too much, his grave would be about one foot high.
Zhuge Jin even suggested: "Lord, it will take time for Liu Yu to create a serial warship in Jiangbei. The lord can send elite naval forces to harass him so that he cannot complete the work smoothly."
"Tiyu's strategy is feasible! Just let Xingba go. He is the most suitable candidate for doing this kind of thing!" Sun Ce felt that this suggestion was good. Liu Yu had to do so many warships, which would definitely require a lot of manpower and material resources. Sending water troops to harass Liu Yu can interfere with Liu Yu's progress and give Jiangdong more time.
Sun Ce had a very hot chat with his subordinates, which made the representatives of the local aristocratic families in Jiangdong a little dissatisfied. Nowadays, the aristocratic families didn't care whether the ruler of Jiangdong was Sun or Liu. Anyway, the emperor was far away, and their aristocratic families were the local emperors of Jiangdong. But now Liu Yu was aggressive and adopted the strategy of overcoming the bumps of water wars. Sun Ce's troops, financial resources and material resources could not fight against Liu Yu. If he persisted, the ones who suffered the loss in the end were the aristocratic families in Jiangdong. The crime of rebellion was a crime, but the whole family was exterminated, and the aristocratic families were very wealthy. Sun Ce wanted to resist Liu Yu and fight to the death, but he could not bring the entire Jiangdong into the water. Everyone lived a good life in Jiangdong. Since your Sun Ce came, the entire Jiangdong family had no good life.
The four major families in Jiangdong, Gu family, Lu family, Yu family, and Wei family, are the biggest opponents here.
Think about how comfortable it was to live a good life with some slaves every day in the past, bullying men and women, and filling their own pockets.
"Lord, this matter needs to be discussed again and again." Yu Fan stood up first.
Yu Fan's family was considered a wealthy family in Jiangdong. Just from the perspective of family heritage, the Yu family took root in Jiangdong as early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, and developed to this day, it has become a tyrant of Jiangdong who has tens of thousands of slaves, thousands of visitors, and countless fertile land.
Yu Fan is very talented and famous in Jiangdong. The rest of the families have to give Yu Fan some face.
"Discussion? What else is there to discuss!" Sun Ce's expression changed suddenly. He was discussing how to resist Liu Yu, but someone actually came forward to change the topic.
Gu Yong stood up, shifted Sun Ce's attention from Yu's turn, and said, "Lord, Your Majesty Shenwu's actions are nothing more than wanting Jiangdong to surrender to him. Why don't we just submit temporarily? Let Your Majesty Shenwu feel our loyalty, so that you can turn swords into jade and silk?"
Sun Ce glared at the eyes, and did not expect that at this time, when Jiangdong urgently needed everyone to resist Liu Yu, someone would say this.
After Gu Yong finished speaking, Wei Teng, the representative of the Wei family, said: "General, Yuan Tan Gong is right. A real man can bend and stretch, pretend to surrender to Shenwu, and protect Jiangdong, so why not do it? To endure the calm and calm for a while, take a step back and the vast sky.
Wei Teng had offended Sun Ce in his early years, and Sun Ce had already wanted to kill him at that time. However, Sun Ce's stepmother, Sun Guotai, tried his best to stop Sun Ce from killing Wei Teng. The main reason is that Wei Teng is the head of the Wei family, one of the four major families in Jiangdong. The family is powerful. Even Sun Guotai is a female, knows that killing Wei Teng is very unfavorable to Sun Ce. After Sun Guotai's persuasion, Sun Ce did not make things difficult for Wei Teng. According to common sense, Wei Teng should be honest in front of Sun Ce in the future. But this guy has no idea whether Sun Ce was persuaded or that his mind is missing a certain thread. So far, he still thinks that his family is huge and no matter what he does, Sun Ce will not dare to do anything. Now he has even jumped out and said so many words, Sun Ce has a strong murderous intention.
Regarding Gu Yong and Yu Fan, Sun Ce was not easy to have an attack because they had the ability, but Sun Ce directly scolded Wei Teng and said, "Shut up!!"
Sun Ce's murderous aura erupted a little through this scolding, and Wei Teng was a little scared, but Sun Ce wanted to kill him before, but it was still in vain? So Wei Teng did not retreat at all and said, "Please think twice. This is the common wish of Jiangdong. The general surrendered to His Majesty Shenwu. With Long Yan's joy, the general was at least a marquis. He would definitely restore the glory of his ancestors. The general would not just act alone and ignore the expectations of Jiangdong, right?"
Wei Teng pulled the entire Jiangdong, and this was a bit serious. Wei Teng's tone completely made Sun Ce feel his arrogant arrogance, and he had no intention of taking Sun Ce seriously at all. It seemed that Wei Teng brought the Jiangdong family to force the palace today.
Zhang Zhao and others looked at Wei Teng with a slight look on their faces. Is this guy looking for death?
The other three representatives of the four great masters of Jiangdong were almost scolded Wei Teng to death. You Wei Teng is idle and you are so frustrated, right? You count the entire Jiangdong. Do you want other families to follow your Wei family and waving flags and shouting for you? What is your old age? When is it your turn to jump around?
"Yuan Tan, you guys mean the same thing? Jiangdong wants the general to surrender to Liu Yu?" Sun Ce's murderous intention has been aroused. If the Jiangdong family opposes him now, then Sun Ce will have to do something.
Gu Yong and others were really speechless at Wei Teng. They had discussed before that they had added some pressure to Sun Ce so that the Jiangdong family could survive this crisis safely. But they were not afraid of opponents like gods, but only feared teammates like pigs. Pig teammate Wei Teng had perfectly attracted them to Sun Ce's attention and wanted to give them a head.
You are idiot, I'm not stupid! Gu Yong decided to throw away Wei Teng and said directly: "The lord has misunderstood. My Gu family has always followed the lord's leader. The proposal just now is a temporary solution to protect the lord. If the lord is confident, my Gu family will definitely go through fire and water for the lord, and will not refuse."
Yu Fan is such a smart person. Gu Yong planned to give up Wei Teng, but the four families of Jiangdong are already relatives among relatives. They are married to each other. He cannot watch Wei Teng die without pulling him. He said, "My lord, we are all considering the lord. Since Liu Yu's army has been in the forefront, the lord has been worried about Jiangdong day and night. As a subordinate, we feel guilty when we see the lord working so hard. Although what we said just now is biased, we are wholeheartedly thinking about the lord. Please forgive me."
The representative of the Lu family did not say a word, as if he had nothing to do. The main reason was that the previous head of the Lu family died at Sun Ce's hands. If Jiangdong had not been Sun Ce's strongest and largest, the Lu family would have rebelled. But the Lu family was very smart and adopted a strategy of being content with one's own will, keeping the hatred in their hearts and repaying them later.
When Sun Ce heard this, he felt much less angry. After all, there are still smart people. If you want to cause trouble for Sun Ce at this time, Sun Ce would not mind the knife in his hand was stained with more blood.
Sun Ce continued: "You came here today. Are there any other important things to report besides this? You should know that the time of this general is very precious, and the soldiers are bleeding and sacrificing every moment."
Sun Ce would not let these families go so easily. The meaning is very simple. You come here to make me Sun Ce surrender, so you can wait for my Sun Ce's revenge. If you want to calm my Sun Ce's anger, you should show some filial piety.
All the smart people present, how could they not understand what Sun Ce meant?
Zhang Zhao nodded at Sun Ce with relief, thinking: The lord is much more mature and already knows how to fight for the greatest benefit for himself.
Zhuge Jin even looked at several representatives of the four major families in Jiangdong with his eyes squinted, waiting to see their jokes. Zhuge Jin had been despised and bullied by the children of these four major families before.
Gu Yong immediately made a statement and said, "My lord is in Chibi to resist Liu Yu's invasion for Jiangdong, but my Gu family is sitting in the back to enjoy the fruits of his life. He feels very guilty. This time, my Gu family prepared 3,000 grain and grass for his lord and 500 slaves for his lord. I also asked my lord not to be disgusted. This is a little filial piety of my Gu family."
Yu Fan also understood that if he didn't give him any benefits, Sun Ce would definitely not give up. He just took out the food and grass and family slaves to Sun Ce like Gu Yong.
The representative of the Lu family also took out a lot of things to Sun Ce, but there were no slaves because the Lu family has always been very low-key and there were not many slaves at home.
Zhang Zhaoxin calculated that with the donations from these companies, Sun Ce would not be restricted by food and grass in a short period of time, and could calmly deal with Liu Yu's threat.
Wei Teng may be a weird guy, and others generously donated money to Sun Ce to relieve his anger. But this guy was silent and said, "I have nothing else to report to the general in the Wei family."
One sentence makes the originally good atmosphere very awkward.
Sun Ce kept squinting at Wei Teng, feeling that this kid was completely disobeying his rule.
Lu Su thought that Wei Teng was definitely a stupid guy, didn’t he just accept it? If he were to do so, Lu Su would definitely kneel on the ground and cry.
"I already know your filial piety. I have always made clear rewards and punishments. After repelling Liu Yu, I will definitely make some arrangements! If you have nothing else, you can put it back to the rear to calm people's hearts. At this moment, Jiangdong is the moment when everyone is united, and I don't want any trouble behind." Sun Ce narrowed his eyes and stared at Wei Teng, his meaning was very clear.
To be honest, Sun Ce made a little compromise with these aristocratic families. Under the current circumstances, Sun Ce could not make any mistakes. Let these aristocratic families go first and settle the accounts later is the most correct one.
Wei Teng seemed to have no intention of being afraid at all.
"Let's say goodbye!" The representatives of the aristocratic family knew what Sun Ce meant, just to let them stay in the rear and not cause trouble for Sun Ce. Anyway, it is impossible to persuade Sun Ce to submit to Liu Yu now, so they should return to the rear and stay obediently. In the future, Sun Ce and Liu Yu decide the winner and make a decision. If Sun Ce wins, they will continue to pretend to be grandson. If Liu Yu wins Sun Ce, it will be normal to open the door to welcome the king's army, wake up and change his past.
The aristocratic families all have only one mind, Sun Ce will continue to fight. As long as we don’t use the knife to us, we will be obedient. But if you lose, don’t blame our Jiangdong aristocratic family for being ruthless.
Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, the wise men, were very clear about the plans of the Jiangdong family. Sun Ce also knew very well. Even though Sun Ce had killed everyone in Jiangdong, the disharmonious voices still existed.
"I'm not a son! A guy who looks like a slut is simply embarrassing!" The older Zhang Zhao cursed at the representative of the departing family.
When Sun Ce heard Zhang Zhao so angry, he was immediately happy. This old guy is usually very gentle and it is rare to hear a slander.
"Haha! Why are Mr. Zibu so angry?" A loud voice came into the room. (To be continued)
