Chapter 996: Conspiracy Assassination
Jiangxia's Huang Zu has always been a thorn in Sun Jian's heart, and in order to get rid of Huang Zu, the Sun family has also spent a lot of effort.
Discord, assassination, poisoning are all the best.
But to no avail.
Although Liu Biao is mediocre, he has an unusual trust in Huang Zu, but whenever Huang Zu asks for something, he will not allow it. No matter what rumors there are in Xiangyang City, they will not be ignored.
With Liu Biao as the backing, Huang Zu naturally wanted the wind to be windy and rainy, and he stayed in Jiangxia steadily, becoming an obstacle to the Sun family's westward advance.
"Could it be that my grandson's family will be subject to others for the rest of their lives?"
Thinking of this, Sun Jian looked up to the sky and sighed.
"Lord!"
At this time, a general suddenly came in a hurry, it was Li Su, who defected to Sun Jian.
Li Su was originally a general of the Western Liang Army, but because he was squeezed out by Lu Bu, he withdrew from Western Liang and followed Sun Jian.
Sun Jian saw that Li Su was excellent in martial arts and quite strategic, so he was naturally overjoyed in his heart, and the two became brothers at the moment.
As early as when he was in Luoyang, Li Su pointed out that if Sun Jian continued to stay in Yuzhou, he would inevitably be under the control of Yuan Shu.
How can a great husband be subservient to others for the rest of his life?
Therefore, he tried his best to persuade Sun Jian to leave Yuzhou, the land of the four wars, and cross the river to attack Jiangdong.
Compared with the princes of Jiangbei, the warlords who attacked Jiangdong were relatively simple for the Sun family.
It is precisely because of this that Sun Jian laid a foundation in Jiangdong and became the largest force in Jiangdong.
It can be said that Sun Jian can be where he is today, and Li Su has contributed a lot.
"Brother Xian came just in time!"
Sun Jian suddenly stood up and sat down with Li Su's hand in person.
For this righteous brother, he trusts him very much.
Li Su also became the number two person in the Jiangdong Army, and he could enter and exit Sun Jian's room with a sword, and there was no need to shy away from entering the backyard.
"Big brother, what's wrong? Looking listless? ”
Li Su asked with a smile.
Don't mention it!
Sun Jian said depressedly: "Huang Zu is like a rock in Jiangxia, and my Jiangdong Army is blocked in Jiujiang, and it is difficult to go further west." I only hope that this old thief will die soon, but he will live a long life. ”
Now, he has nothing to do.
Hehe!
Hearing Sun Jian so frustrated, a smile appeared on Li Su's face.
"Huang Zu is just a clown who jumps off the beam, and he can't jump for a few days. Our Jiangdong Army is invincible, and it will definitely be able to drive straight into Jiangxia for a long time. ”
Regarding Li Su's words, Sun Jian only smiled reluctantly.
"Brother Xian, don't comfort me. Since we landed in Jiangdong, swept through the surrounding princes, and laid down a large territory, how could I, Sun Jian, ever be afraid? But ......"
He shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Xia was so strong that he couldn't get into the water, and Sun Jian had already lost confidence.
Eldest brother!
Li Su twisted his beard and said: "Little brother dares to ask you, do you really only want Jiangxia?" ”
Naturally not!
Sun Jian hurriedly shook his head.
His real purpose is the rich Jingzhou, Jiangxia is just the east gate of Jingzhou, but it is a pity that this gate permanently locks the Jiangdong army outside.
Shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first!
Li Su suddenly said: "Instead of spending time dealing with Huang Zu, the eldest brother should find a way to deal with Liu Biao." Liu Biao is Huang Zu's solid backing, once Liu Biao is finished, Huang Zu will become a toothless tiger and let us slaughter him. ”
Hearing Li Su say, Sun Jian was overjoyed and immediately shook his head.
That being said, but Liu Biao is far away in Xiangyang, and if the Jiangdong Army wants to deal with Liu Biao, it must first pull out the nail of Jiangxia Huangzu.
Li Su knew Sun Jian's worries, and smiled at the moment: "Although we can't do it, others can." If you want to kill Liu Biao, you don't necessarily have to make a move! ”
Yes!
Sun Jianden was overjoyed.
"Brother Xian, how do you say this?"
He grabbed Li Su and asked excitedly.
Li Su suddenly lowered his voice: "According to reliable information, Guo He, the younger brother of the great general Guo Jia, appeared in Xiangyang. ”
Guo He?
Hearing this name, Sun Jian couldn't help frowning.
Guo Jia naturally knew that the overlord who occupied the north of the Yellow River was also the king among the princes.
Compared with others, Jiangdong's territory is far worse.
"What does this Guo He have to do with us?"
Sun Jian was a little puzzled.
Hehe!
Seeing that Sun Jian was still a little confused, Li Su couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Big brother, Guo He's appearance in Xiangyang at this moment is nothing more than one reason, that is, Yunzhou intends to cooperate with Liu Biao. Guo Jia is the overlord of Hebei, and this Liu Biao is a strong man of the Jingxiang generation, once the two cooperate, there will be nothing else to do. So, we have to break this alliance. ”
Not bad!
Sun Jian nodded, he understood this truth.
In case Yunzhou and Jingzhou form an alliance, it would be even more foolish for the Jiangdong Army to want to defeat Jiangxia.
Therefore, they must not allow the two sides to form a smooth alliance.
Assassinating Guo He is the most effective method.
Once Guo He died, the two sides would naturally not form an alliance.
Other than that......
A mysterious smile appeared on Li Su's face: "If Guo He dies in Jingzhou, do you think Guo Jia will be dissatisfied with Liu Biao?" With Guo Jia's temper, even if he didn't send troops south, he would list Liu Biao as an enemy and suppress him everywhere. When the time comes, wouldn't it be easier for us to attack Liu Biao again. As soon as Liu Biao fell, Huang Zu was not a problem, so it was just around the corner to become the master of Jingzhou. ”
You can say that again!
Hearing Li Su's analysis, Sun Jian couldn't help but slap the table and stood up excitedly.
Kill two birds with one stone!
"Brother Xian, you are really my Sun Jian's lucky general. I will arrange for someone to go to Xiangyang to assassinate Guo He. ”
Sun Jian said to Gao Cailie.
He is still very clear about the fact that he will oppose what the enemy supports, and he will support what the enemy opposes.
If Guo He is assassinated, it arouses Guo Jia's suspicion of Liu Biao, and it will definitely have the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort.
Big Brother Wise!
Li Su arched his hand.
That's what he meant when he came to see Sun Jian.
The assassination of Guo He and the destruction of the alliance between the two sides were very beneficial to the Jiangdong Army.
"Come on, let Zhou Tai come over!"
Sun Jian said without thinking.
Zhou Tai is a native of Jiujiang and came to vote when Sun Jian ascended Jiangdong.
He was born as a ranger and had strong martial arts, only a little worse than Sun Jian and Li Su, and was the best candidate to assassinate Guo He.
A strong man walked in.
"What's the matter with the lord's name?"
Zhou Tai asked.
Sun Jian groaned slightly, and then said, "Youping, there is something for you to do." ”
He whispered a few words at the moment.
Zhou Tai was stunned for a moment, and then hugged his fists and said: "Don't worry, the lord must do everything he can to cut off Guo He's head." ”
Remember!
Li Su on the side suddenly said: "You must do it cleanly, don't reveal your identity!" ”
If Zhou Tai revealed his identity, it would be counterproductive.
"General Li rest assured, a certain person has his own measure."
Zhou Tai nodded.
Although he looks rough, he is quite strategic, so he handed over the task to Zhou Tai, and Sun Jian was also very relieved.
