Chapter 565
Judging from the current situation in Xuzhou, Sun Quan's arrangement is very reasonable. Although he is aggressive, he has not lost his competencies. It is a situation where he can make a big profit if he wins, and he will not lose too much if he loses. Therefore, when Sun Quan claimed that he would not mobilize the soldiers from Jiangdong and switch to the soldiers from Shouchun, Wu Jing actually supported Sun Quan in his heart.
But the things on the battlefield are the things on the battlefield, but in other aspects, Wu Jing gradually felt a lot of hidden worries. In the past, everyone thought that Sun Ce and Sun Jian were very similar, and Sun Quan was an alien to the Sun family, so Sun Ce and Sun Quan were complementary and mutually helpful. But with this period of contact, Wu Jing gradually discovered that Sun Quan was actually very similar to Sun Jian, and he was still a Sun family in his bones! The biggest feature was that he acted decisively, had his own opinions, and was quite strong. Once he made a decision, he could not pull back several horses!
So, the biggest problem arises.
If Sun Quan was the top leader, of course there was no problem, but he was the second leader, and Sun Quan's eldest brother Sun Ce was also a very strong figure. The two used to manage politics and the other in charge of the army, so there might not be any conflict for the time being, but when both of them were in charge of the army, they would easily have differences. For example, this time, Sun Ce was thinking about Xituo, while Sun Quan insisted on attacking Xuzhou. Fortunately, the two sides were too far apart and there was not much connection between the troops. Even if Sun Ce was short of soldiers and food, he would not find Sun Quan to ask for it. What about the future?
When the enemy becomes stronger and stronger and the entire Jiangdong power must be used to defeat it, what if the two brothers still want to fight the East and the other want to fight the West, no one will agree to the other, what should they do then?
Maybe Wu Jing was thinking a little too much now, but for some reason, he always felt that that day would not be too far away. He just hoped that one of the brothers could compromise on that day, and that there would be no gap between the brothers. In that case, it would be a great blessing for the Sun family.
At the same time, Cao Cao's side,
While hurriedly dispatching troops to attack Xuzhou, Cao Cao received quite bad news for him.
"It's hard to compete with me!"
In the temporary camp, Cao Cao looked at the letter in his hand and sighed loudly.
"Master, what happened?"
Everyone under his command asked questions carefully. After all, looking at Cao Cao's appearance, it didn't seem like any good news.
Cao Cao sighed again while passing the letter in his hand to others.
"In the past, I admired Sun Jianzhan for his good battle, but now, I only admired him for giving birth to two good sons!"
In a sigh, a familiar figure also appeared in Cao Cao's mind. He actually had a good son, but unfortunately, he died not long ago in the battle with Zhang Xiu.
Cao Cao belongs to an entrepreneur and a rich generation. In this uncertain era, he obviously hopes that his son will dare to fight and fight like him, step by step from the poor period, from the bottom of the country. The eldest son Cao Ang is such a person, who is very fond of Cao Cao. Although Cao Ang's reputation at that time was far less than that of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, it was actually because Cao Cao deliberately kept a low profile. Moreover, Sun Ce and Sun Quan were exceptions, because Sun Jian suddenly disappeared, and the two brothers had to become a family early. When Sun Jian was still there, Sun Ce was not famous yet, but was only a pawn under Sun Jian's command. At that time, Sun Ce's reputation was not as great as Sun Ben. What's the result?
Cao Cao believed that as long as Cao Ang was given a chance, Cao Ang could grow into a person who was not inferior to Sun Ce. Unfortunately, there was no if.
After putting away the sadness in his heart, Cao Cao looked up and saw that everyone below had read all the letters. For a moment, everyone's faces became as gloomy as Cao Cao.
"I believe you have seen it too. Jingzhou, Liu Jingsheng's nephew Liu Hu and Han from Nanyang, barely arrived in Jiangxia, and were defeated by Sun Ce's troops. They were not the enemy of Sun Ce's subordinates. Just like this, should they go to save people? I think Liu Jingsheng is either blind or there is no one available to his subordinates. He was also a handsome talent when he was young, and he was not as good as Sun Jian's. "Cao Cao cursed fiercely. Although he was also an enemy with Jingzhou, he felt a sense of anger. "The reinforcements have been broken. In my opinion, Jiangxia can't defend for a long time. Huang Zu had already held his breath and waited for reinforcements. Now,
I guess he will find a way to escape. Not only do I think so, but others think so too. As soon as I see even Jiangxia shaking, Hua Xin, who was still watching, immediately surrendered to Sun Ce. Sun Ce without spending a single soldier, got all the places in Yuzhang Luling and other places, and now it is all south of the Yangtze River. Now the Sun family is so powerful that it is far beyond Sun Jian's presence. Even Yuan Shao's limelight in the north was suppressed a lot. Who would have thought that Sun Jian's disappearance not only did not bring decline to the Sun family, but instead made them burn their boats and become more brilliant!”
Speaking of this, Cao Cao paused, probably waiting for everyone to digest the content, and then continued,
"Of course, the situation in Jingzhou is as expected. As for Hua Xin, he will surrender to Sun Ce sooner or later. However, what I never expected was that in Guangling, Lu Bu would actually be defeated! Sun Zhongmou, since I was a child, I saw that he was not an ordinary person. I was already respectful to him, but I still didn't expect that he could defeat Lu Bu by just one city and a city he had just captured!"
Cao Cao took a deep breath, obviously his mood fluctuated greatly, because the development of Guangling did indeed affect his plan.
"Many of them here have fought with me and Lu Bu. I believe everyone still remembers the trouble that Lu Bu has brought us. Including myself, I almost died at the hands of Lu Bu several times! For such Lu Bu, I really don't understand how Sun Quan won, let alone how Lu Bu lost. But now, the fact is that Lu Bu lost! Moreover, some of Yuan Shu's old subordinates also defected to Guangling. At this time, Sun Quan entered Guangling. I don't believe that he would give such a good opportunity to ignore it. I don't believe that he didn't want to plot against Xuzhou!"
After saying that, Cao Cao raised his head again and looked at everyone with heavy eyes.
"There is not much time left for us. The Sun family grew step by step, which made Yuan Shao a little unable to sit still. Originally, Yuan Shao was probably still considering whether he should first stabilize the rear and then go south with a stable plan. But now, looking at the two tigers of the Sun family, Yuan Shao probably dared not wait any longer. So, everyone, in the face of such a difficult situation, do you have any good plans?"
In fact, in addition to the above, there is another worry that Cao Cao did not raise. Moreover, this is definitely not Cao Cao's worry, but also Yuan Shao's worry in the north. That is, the two brothers Sun Ce and Sun Quan are too young! Cao Cao and Yuan Shao are gradually getting old. If they cannot restrain the Sun family's heroes when they can still move, who will be their descendants?
It can be said that once the Sun family wins half of the country, they can defend safely and wait for work. However, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have to attack. From this perspective, they are already at a disadvantage.
However, thinking about this at the moment is completely unfair, so Cao Cao did not say it out.
After a while, one of the men under his command spoke first.
"Lord, although the two tigers of the Sun family are strong, they have many problems because they are strong. I think we can start from two aspects." The speaker is Guo Jia.
