Yizhou, Badong,

"Governor, we have completely controlled Badong. The gateway to Yizhou has been opened. Is it a temporary rest and stabilize the front line?" Gan Ning, who returned from the battlefield, asked Zhou Yu.

"No." Zhou Yu shook his head, "Soldiers are very fast. We are already surprised by the launch of troops this time. Before Liu Zhang could react, I will fight to Chengdu in one breath!"

"But, because of unexpected surprise, we have not prepared all the food and grass for reserves yet." Gan Ning couldn't help but remind him.

Although the country of Tianfu is rich, it means that the Chengdu Plain does not mean that Badong also produces grain. The so-called "before the troops and horses move, food and grass will come first. Zhou Yu suddenly sent troops without the grain and grass, which caught Yizhou off guard. But if you want to go further, it is not possible to have no food and grass, otherwise you will go deeper alone. The current situation in Badong cannot meet the needs of the Jiangdong army to support the war. Therefore, Gan Ning would speak up to remind Zhou Yu, of course, this is also Gan Ning. If someone else thought so, he would not dare to question Zhou Yu's decision.

"Don't worry, if I don't have enough preparations, how could I start a war rashly? Food and grass have already come from Jiangdong and will arrive soon." Zhou Yu said lightly, planning and silenced as he talked and laughing, and he was talking about Zhou Lang.

Gan Ning nodded and suddenly said,

"What do you say about the lord?"

Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, but he was still calm on the surface and said with a smile.

"If I had no lord's instructions, how could I dare to start a war?"

????????

Jiangdong, Wujun,

"Mr. Zhang, there are many good news on the front line, why do you look sad instead?"

On that day, Zhang Zhao personally came to Mrs. Wu to report the war, but Zhang Zhao's expression was not as good as he said.

"I am just a little worried. I'm afraid I can't support it if I start a war on both sides." Zhang Zhao said. Sun Ce didn't say anything before, almost ignoring internal affairs. Later, Sun Quan's main energy was also on the selection and appointment of officials and dealing with the aristocratic families. Both brothers ignored a major issue - economy!

The so-called military and military force, through ancient times, how many countries have hollowed out the national treasury because of war? With more soldiers and fewer strong men, the productivity will be reduced accordingly. People are living in poverty and the people are suffering. So what if you have won so many battles outside?

Those who win the hearts of the people will win the world!

If this continues, there will probably be turmoil within Jiangdong!

Zhang Zhao's words instantly pulled Mrs. Wu back from joy.

"How can Lord Zhang explain this?"

"I'm not hiding my wife, even though the good news is coming, it's just the beginning. The next one is tough battle, and even a protracted war. My Jiangdong has been fighting for many years and has not stored much grain. Recently, the Jianghuai area has been plagued by locusts, and now Xuzhou is half less. According to my estimate, if this continues, the food and grass will bottom out in less than a month. By then, the two armies will be forced to retreat, and there will be countless casualties and no gains." Zhang Zhao said.

"Does Lord Zhang have a good idea?" Mrs. Wu quickly asked for advice.

Zhang Zhao shook his head,

"You can't have both fish and bear's paws. Xu Du and Yizhou can only choose one of them. If the lord really wants to have both, then he will either take action against the people or the gentry!"

Hearing this, Mrs. Wu suddenly lowered her head and said nothing. When she attacked the people, what is the foundation of Jiangdong? As for the attacks on the aristocrats, it may be even more chaotic!

"What do all officials mean?" Mrs. Wu looked up and asked Zhang Zhao.

Zhang Zhao, who is the representative of all officials, bowed and replied,

"Save Yizhou, take Xudu, and welcome the Emperor of Han!"

????????

Tianzhu Mountain,

Sun Quan and his group went down the mountain without delay. There was a biggest problem in this era, that was, the message was transmitted too slowly, so many times, when Sun Quan issued an order, he had to think about a few more steps later. For example, Sun Quan asked Qiao Xuan to fight until Xu Du, but stopped fighting, because when his order arrived at Qiao Xuan, he might have really hit Xu Du.

Although Tianzhu Mountain is not too far away from Xu, if Sun Quan could not wait for Tong Yuan within a few days, Sun Quan could not help but rush to Xudu front line. Sun Quan always thought in his heart that Qiao Xuan could not be Cao Cao's opponent, and even if Cao Yuan's decisive battle is now, Xu Du is not so easy to defeat. It doesn't matter if Xu can't defeat him. What Sun Quan fears most is to lose his troops.

On the way down the mountain, Diao Chan suddenly spoke.

"If you welcome Emperor Xian, you may be able to regain Jingzhai's support."

Sun Quan sighed inwardly, and it was indeed here. As a result, before he could speak, Dou Yuru snorted coldly.

"You Cihang Jingzhai will come whenever you say it, leave whenever you say it, arrest people when you say it. Do you still take the Sun family seriously? This time you cooperate, maybe when you turn against each other again. The obvious enemy is better than stabbing the knife in the back."

Diao Chan knew that from the moment they went down the mountain, the front between her and Dou Yuru had disintegrated and now she returned to a hostile state. Diao Chan ignored Dou Yuru's words and continued to look at Sun Quan and said,

"You and Emperor Xian had a good relationship with each other when they were in Luoyang. Now that you save him from water and fire, he will not make things difficult for you. Besides, if you dominate the world, you still hope that your military strategists will be expected."

"Don't listen to her nonsense! Since ancient times, the emperor is the most ruthless. He is a cunning rabbit and a lackey. Don't forget that his ancestor is Liu Bang!" Dou Yuru saw Diao Chan ignore her, and turned to Sun Quan.

"Okay! I have my own right to do what I should do! Don't let people laugh at it." Sun Quan said in a deep voice.

Dou Yuru helped him to relieve the siege, but it was also temporary. In the past, Sun Quan always said that he had no ambitions and insisted that he had no ambitions. But in fact, Sun Quan was the most ambitious one - he didn't want to be the emperor, but he wanted to be more free than the emperor!

So Sun Quan always said that he wanted to be a prince of Xiaoyao. What does Xiaoyao mean? It means that his elder brother Sun Ce is the emperor! In other words, Sun Quan, who has no ambition, actually has the greatest intention to rebel! You must know that it is still unclear whether Sun Ce wants to be an emperor.

Of course, embracing Emperor Xian is not in conflict with being an emperor. Cao Pi is the best example in history, but once embracing Emperor Xian, Sun Quan will not be able to enjoy the freedom he wants! Unless Sun Quan also embezzled Emperor Xian like Cao Cao!

After the words came, several passers-by appeared on the mountain road ahead, which was also the origin of Sun Quan's joke. The other party probably saw that there were officers and soldiers on Sun Quan's side, so he took the initiative to give up the mountain road and let Sun Quan and others pass first.

As they passed by, both sides looked at each other.

Expert!

We were already at peace, and everyone went their own way, but Sun Quan suddenly stopped and turned around and said,

"Wait a moment."

After the words came to an end, the warlike Dou Yuru had subconsciously put her hand on the weapon. The other two people reacted to her.

Diao Chan frowned. She knew what Sun Quan was thinking, and couldn't help but whisper to remind her.

"We have something important to do, and Tong Yuan may come back at any time."

Diao Chan hopes that Sun Quan will not have any trouble at this time. These people are obviously very skilled in martial arts, do not know the details, and make enemies rashly, and don’t know what the consequences will be.

"My lord, I don't know what instructions do you mean?" a middle-aged man opposite replied with a smile on his face.

"You are not from Central Plains, aren't you?" Sun Quan asked.
