For a moment, Diao Chan was a little curious and worried. What was written in Sun Quan's letter? Isn't it just to simply persuade Sun Ce to withdraw his troops? Otherwise, how could Shi Zimiao determine that Sun Quan had gone wrong? Diao Chan knew her master's style of conduct. Shi Zimiao affirmed Sun Quan's talent and believed that Sun Quan had embarked on the evil path, which shows that Sun Quan was already a threatening figure in Shi Zimiao's eyes. So, with Shi Zimiao's overall view, she might have to take action against Sun Quan. This is a real move, definitely not the kind of house playing house that was used to be, and Sun Quan would be in danger of life!

"Look at it."

Shi Zimiao closed her eyes and handed the letter back to Diao Chan.

Diao Chan took the letter respectfully, with a very hesitant face. No matter what, no matter how curious she was, Diao Chan's morality in her heart was preventing her from doing such a thing.

"A gentleman's friendship is beautiful, but there is a prerequisite that both parties must be gentlemen. When dealing with villains and evil people, don't be obsessed with benevolence, righteousness and morality." Shi Zimiao said, "I will not make too much comments on whether Sun Quan is good or bad. Everyone has their own opinions, and the same person will also have different judgments in the eyes of different people. This letter will help you understand Sun Quan better."

Diao Chan hesitated for a moment, and was finally moved by Shi Zimiao. People are like this. They don’t want to give themselves a sincere heart, but the other party just treats themselves as a joke. Diao Chan is willing to send a letter to Sun Quan out of trust in Sun Quan. If Sun Quan lets down Diao Chan’s trust, even if he helps Sun Quan deliver the letter this time out of promise, Diao Chan will draw a clear line with Sun Quan in the future and will not act irritably.

So, what Diao Chan really wants to know is not the content in Sun Quan’s letter, but whether Sun Quan lied to her, and whether Sun Quan was really persuading his elder brother Sun Ce to withdraw his troops.

After opening the letter, Diao Chan's face changed several times when she looked at the words that were quite a bit too small.

There are several main contents on Sun Quan's letter. First, at the beginning, Sun Quan was persuading his elder brother Sun Ce to withdraw his troops. Seeing this, Diao Chan felt very happy in his heart. Sun Quan really didn't lie to her. Then, it was the reason why Sun Quan convinced Sun Ce. This was also the most curious thing about Diao Chan. It can be seen in the world that Jiangdong Army retreated from the retreat. Sun Quan could not let Sun Ce listen to him by his own words. But immediately, Diao Chan understood that Sun Quan was really likely to convince Sun Ce because Sun Quan did not let Sun Ce return the same way!

Sun Ce's army is currently near Xiangyang and wants to go back to Jiangdong. In addition to the normal road: go south to Jiangxia, then follow the Yangtze River, and cross Lujiang, there is actually another option: that is, go north first, pass Xinye and Wancheng, take the road of Sun Jian's attack on Dong Zhuo, go east to Runan, Shouchun, and finally return to Jiangdong.

The reason why this line is unexpected and not thought of by the world is that it is also difficult to walk, and the variables and crises it faces may be even greater. First of all, the distance is long, how should the Jiangdong Army solve the food and grass? Secondly, there are not without garrison troops in the north of Xiangyang. To be precise, there are heavy troops stationed in Jingzhou, the most powerful troops, one in Jiangxia, and the other in Wancheng. Then, even if the Jiangdong Army accidentally broke through Wancheng, they entered the most complex four-sided junction. In addition to Jingzhou, Liu Biao, the north is temporarily attached.

Yuan Shao's Lu Bu, Cao Cao in the northeast and Yuan Shu in the southeast. Here, the exhausted Jiangdong army may be attacked by anyone. Later, even if everything goes well, if you want to return to Jiangdong, you have to borrow all the way to pass through the territory of other princes. Why do others let you pass? Even if it is an allies, with so many troops from the Jiangdong army, everyone will have concerns. What if you repay your kindness and revenge and take over other people's city? Even in the end, the Jiangdong army still had to face the already independent Yangtze River blockade line, Lujiang-Moling (Jianye)-Guangling!

Such a road is much more complicated than returning to Jiangdong in any way! Why did Sun Quan suggest that Sun Ce choose such a road? The reason is very simple, because only one person needs the help of one person, all this will be solved. And this person is Yuan Shu!

As long as Yuan Shu is willing to send troops, there is no need to fight. He just needs to restrain Wancheng's troops in the north of Jingzhou, the Jiangdong Army will be surprised and escape from the encirclement of Jingzhou. Then, the Jiangdong Army and Yuan Shu Army will join forces and return together. Which prince in the world is not eyeing and dares to provoke such a combat power? At the same time, this also solved the dilemma of Jiangdong Army's weakness and no food. Furthermore, whether it is Runan or Shouchun, they are currently under Yuan Shu's territory. As long as Yuan Shu is willing, the Jiangdong Army can even pass by at will... From then on, all problems are no longer a problem.

So, there is only one question left - why should Yuan Shu help you? Yuan Shu is not a good man, even if you are allies and do not have enough benefits, will he be willing to take action?

In the letter, the method given by Sun Quan was very simple: there was no need to talk too much about the conditions with Yuan Shu, and the possibility of Yuan Shu being on the ground was not mentioned, and the Jiangdong Army did not have so much time to negotiate. If Yuan Shu wanted to take action willingly, there was only one way, that was, lead troops to surrender to Yuan Shu!

Just like when Lu Bu escaped from Chang'an some time ago and had to surrender to Yuan Shao, Sun Ce is now facing the same dilemma of desperateness. Even repeated villains like Lu Bu can be taken in by Yuan Shao, not to mention the "famous and upright faction" like Jiangdong Army! In addition, Yuan Shu and Sun Jian were allies and even had a marriage relationship, and Yuan Shu has always been against Yuan Shao. Yuan Shao accepted one Lu Bu, how could Yuan Shu not accept one Sun Ce? Lu Bu's personal combat power is strong, but Sun Ce is a military strategist and has more decisiveness on the battlefield. In this game, Yuan Shu won!

In short, Yuan Shu had no reason to refuse such a big cake. In order to show his sincerity, it was very likely that Yuan Shu would personally lead his troops to pick up Sun Ce.

Seeing this, Diao Chan admired her very much. Sun Quan thought of this method, not just because he was smart, but because he had courage. After all, ordinary people are used to being bosses, who would want to go to others to be subordinates? This contrast is not acceptable to everyone. Although Lu Bu is so vain, Lu Bu has always been under the control of others and has never really been a prince. The Jiangdong army is different. After all, the foundation is there, and they even have a base. How can ordinary people choose to rely on them if they want them!

If Diao Chan has always admired Sun Quan at this point, then Diao Chan's face changed. I believe that behind this is what Shi Zimiao really wants Diao Chan to see, and it is also the reason why Shi Zimiao thinks that Sun Quan is on the evil path.

Sun Quan's courage does not mean that others have courage. If you want to convince Sun Ce, you need to be deeper. Sun Quan wrote later that it is fake to rely on Yuan Shu, and keeping a low profile is real. When the time is ripe, he will use the jade seal of the country as the quality and lead troops to retake Jiangdong. Yuan Shu has great ambitions and will inevitably be irritated. In addition, if you attack Lujiang in the future, the Qiao family may be used.
