Zhuge Liang lowered his head and pondered. After thinking clearly, he said: "Your Majesty is very calm and has a very accurate vision. The Kingdom of Wu is indeed in a precarious situation and has reached its most critical moment. One bad thing is the fate of the first lord Liu Bei."
Sun Quan's expression did not change, nor did he feel angry because of Zhuge Liang's words.
The current state of Wu, although still surviving, is facing danger at all times.
Sun Quan looked calm, waiting for Zhuge Liang's next words.
Zhuge Liang raised his head slightly, looked at Sun Quan levelly, neither humble nor arrogant, and asked softly: "The king of Wu led an army of 300,000 to attack Wang Can. What do you think the final result will be?"
Zhuge Liang did not give a long speech, but asked questions.
Sun Quan shook his head and said: "There is no news coming back from the front, and we don't know the outcome."
Zhuge Liang asked aggressively: "I dare to ask the prince, if the prince were asked to predict the outcome of the war between Wu and Shu, what would the prince think it would be? Will Wang Can win, or Wu Wang win, or both sides will be victorious and undefeated." Zhuge Liang's character changed drastically.
, became domineering and not at all as approachable as when he met Sun Quan, which made Sun Quan feel a little uncomfortable.
He twisted his body, seeming to resolve his embarrassment.
Zhuge Liang stared at Sun Quan, which made Sun Quan even more uncomfortable.
After a long silence, Sun Quan straightened his body, and his eyes suddenly became sharp and domineering. He sat upright, with a serious look on his face, exuding a fierce aura, which made Zhuge Liang look at him. Unexpectedly, the young prince in front of him was smiling.
Behind the scenes, there is also a domineering side.
Sun Quan said firmly: "My father led an army of 300,000, and led Lu Su, Zhang Hong, Huang Gai, Zu Mao and other civil servants and generals to the expedition, and also had Zhou Yu and Tai Shici assisting him. He will definitely win a complete victory, and the Kingdom of Wu will surely win a complete victory."
Win!"
No matter what, Sun Quan believed that Wu Guo would win.
This is also the character of an emperor.
He was determined not to surrender until the last moment, as was the case with Sun Quan.
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid you are wrong. If Liang's prediction is correct, the 300,000 Wu army will definitely be defeated. It is a good result to have 100,000 soldiers escape. If the King of Wu, Zhou Yu, Lu Su, Taishi
It is a great blessing among misfortunes that Ci and others can fully return. Of course, the situation may be even worse, I'm afraid..."
At this point, Zhuge Liangming stopped and did not continue.
Sun Quan hurriedly asked: "Mr. Kong Ming, what are you afraid of? Are there any other accidents?"
Zhuge Liang said: "Your Majesty, the news of the battle between King Wu and Wang Can has not been sent back. If Liang curses for no reason, it may be bad, so it is better not to say it. If he is right, it will be Wu's misfortune. If he is not right, it will be Wu's misfortune.
Show your misfortune."
Sun Quan frowned and said, "Sir, it doesn't matter."
Zhuge Liang said softly: "That being the case, I'd like to tell you if there is any inconvenience, please forgive me. In this battle, there will be casualties among the generals, and the vitality of Wu will be seriously damaged. It is difficult for Liang to guess the specific details."
"However, the outcome of this battle can be inferred."
"The eldest son Sun Ce and the King of Wu have the same temperament and are very similar. The eldest son was defeated and killed, and the King of Wu was deeply saddened. He would lose his mind because of the death of the eldest son and could not see the situation clearly. He just wanted to kill Wang Can. He would definitely do it.
Go your own way."
"Sun Ce's death will also affect Zhou Yu. The two are as close as brothers, and Zhou Yu will be extremely sad when Sun Ce dies. This man is extremely talented, full of strategies, and is a wise man in the army. However, Sun Ce's death will also put Zhou Yu into trouble.
In the middle, it is difficult to extricate oneself, unable to look at the situation coldly, and the army has lost a wise man.
"The commanders and generals in the army will be affected. If they fight with the Shu army, the chance of victory will be reduced by at least 30%."
"Although Lu Su was powerful and there were civil servants such as Zhang Hong in the army, compared to Wang Can who had Guo Jia, Xu Shu, Jia Xu and other wise men, the Wu army was obviously at a disadvantage, and the certainty of victory was reduced by another 20%."
"Similarly, in terms of military generals, Wang Can has the advantage. There are Dian Wei, Lu Meng, Gan Ning, Zhou Tai, Pang De and other first-class generals in the world. Except for Tai Shi Ci, the rest of the generals under King Wu can only be in Wu.
If you compare the country's dominance with the generals under Wang Can's command, they are too far apart, and you will lose 20% of the chance of winning."
"Based on this calculation, Wu Jun only has a 30% chance of winning."
"Furthermore, Wu's army is 300,000, and Shu's is 350,000. Wu's army was recruited temporarily. It lacks training and is too weak in combat effectiveness. It also removes 10% of the chance of victory."
Zhuge Liang clasped his fingers and carefully settled the accounts for Sun Quan. Of course, this was Zhuge Liang's suggestion, but Sun Quan couldn't refute it, because the Wu army was indeed restrained in every way.
Sun Quan snorted and said: "Even if you are only 20% sure, you still have a chance to win."
Zhuge Liang smiled and shook his head slightly.
Sun Quan said: "Mr. Kong Ming, don't you even have a 20% chance?"
Zhuge Liang continued: "Your Majesty, the battle between the two armies depends on the time, location, people and various factors. King Wu led his army to Jiujiang and eagerly sought a battle, which was definitely disadvantageous. On the contrary, Wang Can fought steadily from Jiangxia and was familiar with the terrain.
The more you understand the local situation, the more advantage you will have.”
"Wow!!"
Sun Quan flicked his sleeves and knocked all the bamboo slips on the table beside him to the ground.
"According to your inference, there is not even a 10% chance of winning. Huh, my father led an army of 300,000 people to kill them. Are these 300,000 people just paper and not worth mentioning?"
Sun Quan roared loudly and was very excited.
Zhuge Liang said calmly: "It's normal for the prince to be unhappy, because Wu's army will be defeated, and it must be a disastrous defeat. As for how disastrous the result will be, the prince can imagine for himself. Now, what the prince wants to do is what should the prince do after the news of Wu Jun's failure comes back.
What to do? What is the next step for Wu State? This is the most important thing."
After hearing this, Sun Quan was shocked.
Whether he wants to think about it or not, he must admit that Zhuge Liang's words are reasonable. If you don't plan for the eternal world, you can't plan for the moment; if you don't plan for the overall situation, you can't plan for a region.
The situation has changed drastically, and Sun Quan must have a long-term vision.
Thinking about things should not be limited to the present.
Sun Quan took a deep breath, bowed his head and said, "Sir, please teach me!" This "sir" could be said to be Sun Quan's words from the bottom of his heart. When Sun Quan first let Zhuge Liang speak, he did so from the perspective of a superior, who had the ability to test Zhuge Liang's ability.
Thoughts, but after listening to Zhuge Liang's words, Sun Quan was convinced.
With Lu Su gone, the only one we can rely on is Zhuge Liang.
At this time, Zhuge Liang was a life-saving straw.
Zhuge Liang said in a deep voice: "Right now, the Crown Prince must make two preparations. The first is to resist Wang Can and fight to the death to preserve the foundation of the state of Wu. The second is that if Wang Can cannot be stopped, then the only choice is to retreat, but where to retreat?
, this is what the Crown Prince needs to consider."
Sun Quan frowned and said: "Mr. Kong Ming, Wu State has devoted all its national power, but it still can't stop the Shu army? Even if Wu State can't, I also invited Jiaozhou Shixie to take action, and also invited Cao Cao from the north to contain Wang Can. Once Cao Cao goes south, with
When the Wu army joins together, they will definitely be able to stop the Shu army. I don't seek to kill the enemy, but only protect myself. Can't I defend it?"
In Sun Quan's eyes, even if he loses, he is sure to protect himself and become his disciple.
What worries me is how much territory can be preserved.
Zhuge Liang sneered: "My lord, do you really think Shi Xie and Cao Cao will help you?"
Sun Quan said seriously: "If your lips are dead and your teeth are cold, of course they will take action."
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "This moment, that moment. If I were Shi Xie, I would definitely sit on the sidelines and watch. If Wang Can wins, Shi Xie only needs to make a surrender to avoid the disaster of swordsmanship. This is Shi Xie's response strategy.
"
"As for Cao Cao in the north, he is not a good person, so why should he help Wu? Now it is the last moment for Cao Cao to deal with the Yuan family. Once the Yuan family is eliminated, Cao Cao will own Bingzhou, Youzhou, Jizhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, Yanzhou, and Yangzhou
In this land, with his strong strength, Cao Cao can have a showdown with Wang Can and rule the world, so why should he save the country of Wu?"
"In my opinion, Cao Cao hopes that the Wu Kingdom will resist desperately and continue to consume the power of the Shu army before it is finally destroyed."
"Cao Cao, the fisherman, will benefit, and he will have a certain advantage when fighting Wang Can."
Zhuge Liang said earnestly: "Relying on help from others is unreliable after all. There are too many uncertain factors, so you have to rely on yourself for everything. Cao Cao has Cao Cao's plan, and Shi Xie has Shi Xie's plan. I'd better think carefully about it, Prince.
How to leave a forced retreat for yourself, and how to fight against the Shu army to protect the Kingdom of Wu."
Sun Quan sighed in his heart, and the illusion in his heart was completely shattered. He tried his best to get rid of the irritable emotions in his heart, slowly calmed down, and discussed with Zhuge Liang.
The oil lamp in the study was always on.
The lights flickered, and the two figures swayed back and forth, never leaving.
