With the arrival of the people of the Seven Great Families, Zhang Zhaoping withdrew everyone and others, and sent people to guard against it 100 meters away, not allowing anyone to approach.

After doing this, Zhang Zhao opened his mouth and said: "Everyone, you must already know the situation in Yangzhou and how to choose, Zhao doesn't want to say more, it all depends on your own wishes." ”

Zhang Zhao had such a casual attitude, these people didn't expect it at all, and fell silent for a while.

After a long time, Gu Yong, the head of the Gu family, said: "The general trend of the world, it is necessary to unify, the prosperity of the family has passed, it is time to usher in a weakening period, in order to ensure that it will not be hit hard, Yong suggests not participating in the war, so as not to liquidate afterwards." ”

Since Li Huiyi rose from the sky, most of the families who had a holiday with him have been hit hard, and their strength is not one percent, Gu Yong's words are not unreasonable.

Gu Yongben was recruited by Sun Ce several times, but he shirked it with various excuses, because he didn't want to go against Li Huiyi.

Although it is mixed with a trace of the emotion of the late teacher Cai Yong, it is more to preserve the strength of the family.

Yu Xuan, the head of the Yu family, shook his head slightly and said: "The situation has suddenly corroded, but Sun Zhoumu's strength is still the same, if he comes back to help, it is not impossible to defeat the Li army." ”

The Yu family is an active faction in Yangzhou, and the children of the clan have always been around the officialdom, so they still have a very hostile attitude towards Li Huiyi.

Although he will not be liquidated if he does not oppose Li Huiyi, he will lose the strategy of the officialdom in the open, and the Yu family will lose at least half of its strength, because the Yu family will take the road of integrating government and business.

The Yu family, who is biased towards Wenlu, has a fighting spirit, and the Zhu family, who has been sending strong generals to Sun Ce, will naturally not fall behind.

Zhu Huan agreed: "Yes, Sun Zhou Mu is brave and good at fighting, and Li Jun is profitable, but he takes advantage of Yangzhou's emptiness, as long as he insists on waiting for help, the tide of the war will definitely be reversed." ”

When Wei Teng heard this, his face showed a hint of sarcasm, and he said slowly: "In the land of a state, if you want to resist Li Jun, it is undoubtedly not to hit a stone with an egg, no matter how powerful Sun Ce is, can he still slaughter thousands of troops by himself?" ”

……

Disagreement is inevitable, because each family is in a different position, and the interests are also different, and it is difficult to work together.

In this room, only two people did not participate in the dispute, and the remaining six people had become bickering at this time, and the quarrel became more and more intense.

Lu Xun, who was young on the left, showed an imperceptible smile on his face.

Since Lu Kang's death, the Lu family's power is not as good as before, if it weren't for Lu Xun's hard work, I'm afraid they would all be eaten by the seven families.

People speak lightly, and it is not a good thing, Lu Xun decided not to get involved in this troubled water, so as not to cause a commotion.

Seeing that the quarrel has been angry, if you continue to fight, I am afraid that there will be no result until it gets dark, on the contrary, there will be hatred, Zhang Zhao interrupted.

"Okay, since we all have our own worries, it doesn't make much sense to fight any longer, the second prince wants me to wait for someone to help defend the city and wait for help, what do you think?"

It naturally doesn't make sense to advocate sticking to one faction, but the Lord is wise enough to protect himself, so he naturally doesn't want to intervene at this time.

Gu Yong shook his head and said: "The advantages of Li Jun's weapons can't even be resisted by the standing army, and these peasants can resist it, this is just a lot of bloodshed." ”

"That is, if the city is broken by then, I'm afraid that we will also be involved in cause and effect." Wei Teng echoed the last sentence.

To tell the truth, Zhang Zhao actually has no score in his heart, after all, Li Jun is fierce and has long been famous, but Sun Ce's kindness, he has to repay it.

"Alas, whatever you want, Zhao is not reluctant, but you had better be mentally prepared, in case Yangzhou is guarded, with Sun Zhoumu's irascible character, I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with it afterwards."

Not to force is the best choice, blindly pressuring, but will let them put themselves under Li Jun's command, Zhang Zhao seems to be helpless, but it is actually a good move.

In the face of this slight threat, Gu Yong's faction was silent for a while, with the talents of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, there is really a chance to recapture Yangzhou, no one can say.

"It's boring, the Lu family is small, I'm afraid I won't be able to participate in such a big thing, so I will leave first." Lu Xun, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly stood up unexpectedly at this time, bowed slightly and walked out.

Lu Xun is a person, usually extremely low-key, but now he is taking the lead, which makes Wei Teng and others have a little bit of effort, and they become wavering.

Looking at Lu Xun's departing back, Zhang Zhao's eyes were cold, and then disappeared. "Okay, the Lu family withdrew, and now only we are left, do you have to think about it carefully?"

Zhang Zhao's slightly meaningful tone made the remaining six people fall into deep thought.

The eight major families, withdraw from one of them, that is to say, the Lu family chose not to help each other, and if Sun Ce really wins afterwards, then the seven families may carve up the Lu family.

In the whole Yangzhou, there are so many interests, if you want to grow, someone must weaken it, so every choice is like a game.

Going with the flow and following the general trend is the common style of every family, because only in this way will it not be devoured all at once.

A weak Lu family is enough to make the eyes of the seven major families red, Wei Teng opened his mouth and said: "Since Zibu has said so, then the Gu family can help defend the city, but in a short time, there shouldn't be many manpower." ”

Wei Teng changed his tone, and the rest of Gu Yong and the others did not have the courage of Lu Xun, so they could only second.

"Okay, as long as you are concentric, it is more or less a heart, and Zhao thanked you first." Seeing that the six major families agreed to stand on Sun Ce's side, Zhang Zhao's worried heart finally let go.

Although Lu Xun left, the purpose of uniting the family had basically been achieved, and Zhang Zhao was polite and rushed to report to Sun Quan.

Knowing that Zhang Zhao had done things so quickly, Sun Quan felt a lot more at ease, and began to devote himself wholeheartedly to recruiting soldiers.

Here, Sun Quan reacted quickly and recruited troops to defend against the enemy, while Gan Ning, Zhang Liao and others had fully occupied Wu County and Danyang County at this time.

Waiting for Xu Shu's army to follow, the two immediately sent troops to kill Jiujiang and Huiji counties, preparing to pursue the victory and besiege Yuzhang City.

In the stronghold of Qiantang, Gan Ning's army gathered here, and when he learned that Huiji didn't know where to go, tens of thousands of troops defending the city appeared, and Gan Ning decided to change his strategy and use waterways to concurrently fight to shorten the time.

The general will be guarded, it is the wise general He Qi, and Sun Quan will send Lu Fan urgently to assist in defending the city together.

Seeing Gan Ning's division of troops, the two immediately took action and decided to break the situation of being passively beaten, and He Qi led 20,000 veterans who had patched together to take the initiative to attack the land army, wanting to crack the road first.

Li Jun of the land, the commander is a student from the General's Academy, Zhu Yuan, a native of Qingzhou, who was born by the sea since he was a child and does fishing for a living.

Because there are many brothers and sisters in the family and the living conditions are unbearable, Zhu Yu has been working hard all year round and has practiced brute strength, and he is also a clever person, but unfortunately he has no chance to read.
