Chapter 77: Foolishness(1/3)

"Lord, although Gongjin is unruly, he will never do anything beyond his authority. I will go to see Gongjin later and I should be able to persuade him." Lu Su said.

He and Zhou Yu are both teachers and friends, but I think Zhou Yu will not refuse.

“Okay.”

Sun Quan was delighted that Lu Su was still reliable and could control Zhou Yu.

But soon, he continued, "By the way, I had some misunderstandings with the teacher a few days ago, so I would like to bother me to go around for a while."

"After meeting Gongjin, I will go to see Lord Zhang." Lu Su nodded.

"Well, only if Zi Jing is here in Jiangdong can you be safe!"

Sun Quan looked at Lu Su with a smile and said happily, "I have Zi Jing, Jiangdong is full of worries."

Lu Su hurriedly kowtowed: "Lord, you're a traitor."

That night.

Sun Quan held a banquet to celebrate Lu Su's return to Jiangdong.

All civil officials and military officials arrived, and because of the existence of Lu Su, the atmosphere was peaceful.

The contradiction that was originally in the clear was turned into invisible by Lu Su in a blink of an eye.

I have to say that Lu Su is really powerful, he is like a Dinghai Sword Needle in Jiangdong.

And internal stability.

The civil and military officials had other ideas in their minds.

Especially Zhou Yu, although Chibi was unbeaten, it was still considered a defeat for Jiangdong. In addition, Liu Bei took Lujiang from his generals.

How could his strong self-esteem bear such humiliation?

So after the dinner, before everyone had dispersed, Zhou Yu immediately stood up and bowed to Sun Quan and said, "Lord, I ask to lead troops to attack Liu Bei and take back Lujiang to complete the six counties in Jiangdong!"

"Lord, the last general asks to fight, kill Liu Bei and take Lujiang!"

The generals from Jiangdong also hurriedly bowed to express their desire to fight.

Sun Quan narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhou Yu. After a while, he smiled: "Now, Jiangdong should focus on resting and recuperation, and he should be quit."

"If you rashly conquer Liu Bei, it will cost a lot of money, which may cause uneasiness to the people and be inconsistent with reason."

After Sun Quan finished speaking, he glanced at Lu Su.

Lu Su understood and immediately stepped forward and said, "Gongjin, Liu Bei was nominally the Emperor of Han. Even if he took Lujiang, although he was unrighteous to me, Jiangdong, he could still be reasonable in the face of great righteousness."

"And now, although Cao Cao led his troops to the north, he still deployed heavy troops in Jingzhou to guard against our two troops. Based on my understanding of Cao Cao, as short as one year or as long as three years, Cao Cao would wait for an opportunity to go south and then seek the land of Jiangdong. We have to make plans early."

"If you lead troops to attack Liu Bei, you will only be cheaper Cao Cao."

"So the Sun-Liu alliance cannot be abolished! Only when our two families join forces can we protect Jiangdong."

Lu Su advised Zhou Yu with great sincerity.

"Zijing, are we just watching Liu Bei show off his power?" Zhou Yu said helplessly.

"Don't be anxious Gongjin. I plan to wait a few days to go to Lujiang to reason with Liu Bei and ask him to return him to Lujiang. I can borrow another place to support Liu Bei's troops in Jiangdong."

Lu Su said.

Zhou Yu suddenly shook his head: "Zijing, Zijing, you are so loyal."

"When Liu Bei gets Lujiang, how could he give it back?"

Lu Su smiled and said, "I always have to give it a try. Please give me some time."

"Well, then I'll try it." Zhou Yu had no choice.

Sun Quan objected.

Lu Su also reconciled from it.

He can't help but not listen.

I had to bow my hand and turn around and retreat.

As for the attack on Lujiang, he would not give up easily.

Lujiang.

Liu Bei has been proud of his youth these days. In recent days, he has not only handled government affairs every day until late at night, but also frequently summoned the heads of major families in Lujiang to promise benefits and requested the families to send people to cooperate with them in governing Lujiang.

After all, Liu Bei's command had too few people.

It is not easy to manage a county.

Many of the officials from all over Lujiang were sent from Jiangdong. Liu Bei didn't care about some irrelevant positions, but some important official positions had to be replaced by their own people no matter what, so that Liu Bei would feel at ease.

Although this made him firmly tied up with the Lujiang family, prospering and losing, Liu Bei had no other choice. Only in this way could he quickly control the heavy city of Lujiang.

After several days of preparation, all parts of Lujiang have now taken over. Even if Jiangdong reacts, it will not be so easy to come to get Lujiang.

Liu Bei was confident that he could repel the soldiers in Jiangdong.

Of course, he promised to give the aristocratic family a lot of benefits, and he would have to pay off his debts in the next few years.

Liu Bei didn't care much about this.

At this time, he had soldiers, land and food in his hands, and he was a little drifting.

"Lord, news has come from Jingzhou."

At this time, Zhuge Liang walked in with a feather fan. Liu Bei quickly got up and pulled Zhuge Liang to sit down.

"What's wrong?" Liu Bei asked nervously.

He occupied Lujiang.

One is worried about Jiangdong, and the other is worried about Cao Cao.

Now there is no movement in Jiangdong, only Cao Cao is left.

"Cao Cao had already led his troops back to Xuchang a few days ago, and most of his troops were returned with him. Now there are only more than 100,000 troops left in Jingzhou."

Zhuge Liang said with a smile.

“Excellent!”

Liu Bei was overjoyed, "Cao Cao returned north and a big stone fell in my heart!"

"Now I can finally manage Lujiang with peace of mind, no need to look back."

Liu Bei smiled happily.

Cao Cao is gone.

He had no worries anymore and could store grain and train troops.

We strive to have enough troops to resist Cao Cao before Cao Cao's next trip south.

"Haha...Does your lord just want to guard Lujiang County?" Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, and his eyes showed a light of wisdom.

"What does Kong Ming mean?"

Liu Bei was shocked.

Is Zhuge Liang's idea of ​​fighting other cities?

But there are only three cities closest to Lujiang.

Shouchun.

Jiangxia.

Moling.

Moling belongs to Jiangdong, so naturally there is no need to consider it, otherwise Jiangdong will definitely fight him desperately.

Shouchun and Jiangxia belong to Cao Cao, so we can plan one or two.

But Liu Bei subconsciously ignored Jiang Xia.

Just because he suffered a big loss in Jiangxia last time, most of the losses caused by the army, even his second brother Guan Yu temporarily obeyed Cao Cao.

He had a psychological shadow on Jiangxia City in his heart, so he naturally did not dare to take it easily.

Then there is only Shouchun left.

Shouchun is also a major city. It used to be the garrison of Yuan Shu, who was the descendants of the four generations and three dukes. The city was high and the walls were thick, and the soldiers and food were abundant.

The most important thing is that the entire county in Shouchun is a place for grain production.

For Liu Bei at present, food is more important than anything else.

Because of food, we can recruit soldiers and strengthen ourselves.

Thinking of this, Liu Bei was moved.

But it was not easy to attack such a heavy city, so he had to look at Zhuge Liang and wait for Zhuge Liang's following.

"Lord, I want to take Jiangxia. In this way, the north can resist Cao Cao and the south can stop Sun Quan. Only then can the lord be worry-free."
