After the persuasion of his ministers, Sun Quan finally agreed to Lu Su's suggestion and decided to reconcile with Wei.

Not only that, Sun Quan also sent Lu Su to Wei as an envoy in person, and in order to show the sincerity of the alliance, Sun Quan was also willing to return the prisoners obtained in the first battle of Shiting to Wei.

In the first battle of Shiting, due to Cao Xiu's carelessness of the enemy, 100,000 soldiers and horses were captured by Jiangdong and 70,000. Only 30,000 horses were left to flee in embarrassment, and Wei was on the eastern front of Huainan, and its strength was greatly damaged since then.

Slash is different from slashing annihilation, slashing has two meanings, slash and gain.

Therefore, these 70,000 people include the number of enemies destroyed and the number of prisoners. Because Cao Xiu was defeated in an ambush in the stone pavilion, the back road was cut off again.

This kind of battle had a great impact on the morale of the army, the front road was cut off, there were pursuers behind, and a large part of the soldiers chose to surrender, so of the 70,000 people captured, the number of enemies destroyed was 20,000, and the number of prisoners was 50,000.

Now Sun Quan wants to return the 50,000 captives to Wei, as a sign of sincerity in forming an alliance.

Although Lu Xun said that these 50,000 horses did not have much effect, but it was to comfort Sun Quan, and now all kinds of construction of the Han Dynasty in Guanzhong rely on 50,000 Wei soldiers to carry out, such as cultivating fields, building water conservancy, building palaces, etc., which played a great role in the construction of Guanzhong.

And Sun Quan was originally a person who liked to rob people everywhere, and now that he returned these 50,000 people, he was about to vomit blood, but fortunately, these 50,000 people were not Jiangdong's people in the first place, and they were returned to Wei, and there was not much loss to Jiangdong's strength.

Unlike Zhang Wen's situation, Lu Su sent an envoy to Wei, and Cao Rui not only did not make things difficult for him, but made the highest level of courtesy to Lu Su.

Cao Rui is also a wise person, and he also knows that with today's situation, if he does not join forces with Jiangdong, Wei will be destroyed by the Han sooner or later, and only by forming an offensive and defensive alliance with Jiangdong can he have a chance to keep Wei and have a chance to counterattack the Han.

As for the hatred of the past, it is nothing at all for the national interest.

What's more, after the alliance, the 50,000 soldiers can come back, which is exactly what the Wei State, which has suffered a great loss in strength now, needs most.

Cao Rui agreed to Sun Quan's alliance and sent Jiang Ji to escort Lu Su back to Jiangdong, Sun Quan also received Jiang Ji with the highest standard, and the two sides submitted their credentials, formally forming an offensive and defensive alliance to resist the Han Dynasty together.

…………

In May 229 AD, the imperial city of Chang'an.

Weiyang Palace, Liu Chan's study.

Liu Chan sat on the seat, and standing below were Zhuge Liang, Xu Shu, Fa Zheng, Pang Tong, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and other civil and military personnel.

Liu Chan handed the latest letter to Zhuge Liang and said, "Hehe, look, Sun Quan sent Lu Su as an envoy to Wei to ask for an alliance, and now the two countries have officially formed an alliance and want to join forces against my Han." ”

Zhang Fei laughed and said: "This Sun Quan really lost the face of his father and brother, and he couldn't make a big man, and now he is going to fight Wei again." If Sun Jian knew about it, he might be angry to death. ”

Guan Yu listened to Zhang Fei's words, with a look of approval, and immediately arched his hand at Liu Chan and said: "Jiangdong is just a group of rats, and no one can compare to him in the ability to intrigue and secretly harm people, but he is vulnerable to a fight.

Your Majesty, now that the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou should be almost rectified, Weichen asked for orders to return to Jingzhou, led his troops to attack Jiangdong, and leveled Jianye in one fell swoop. ”

Liu Chan waved his hand and said: "It's not urgent to attack Jiangdong, at present, our army's navy is slightly inferior to the Jiangdong navy." At the critical juncture of our Guanzhong's development, although there are more than 100,000 soldiers and horses, they are unable to send troops to fight.

If Jiangdong is attacked, only 100,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou will be available, including 30,000 new troops. Moreover, Wu and Wei are allied, and Wei must respond from the side, Nanyang and Jiangxia must leave a part of their troops to defend Wei, and the available soldiers and horses are estimated to be less than 50,000, and it is insufficient to attack Jiangdong.

Therefore, our current strategic focus still has to be placed in the north, attacking the north, Wu and Wei form an alliance, and Wu will attack Jiangxia at most, which will not be of much help to Wei.

When the north is pacified in the future, our Han naval division will also be formally trained, and hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses will go down the river, and Jiangdong will surrender without a fight. ”

Pang Tong said: "Your Majesty said yes, Jiangdong is located in the south of the Yangtze River, there is no need to be in a hurry, you can destroy Wei first, and then destroy Wu." ”

Guan Yu said unhappily: "Judging from the current situation in Guanzhong, if you want to accumulate the grain and grass needed by tens of thousands of troops, it will take at least three or five years, can it be said that you will sit back and watch Wei Wu recuperate and recover his strength in the past few years?"

Wei occupies the Central Plains and Hebei, and now corn and sweet potatoes are also widely planted, if you sit back and watch them recuperate, their strength will definitely increase greatly in three or five years, then I don't know what year and month will destroy Wei. ”

Liu Chan said with a smile: "Second uncle, rest assured, I will naturally not sit back and watch the Wei Kingdom recuperate. ”

As soon as Guan Yu heard this, he suddenly came to his senses: "Then does Your Majesty plan to continue to use troops against the Wei State?" ”

"It's not!" Liu Chan shook his head and said: "I don't have any extra grain and grass in Guanzhong at present, it is difficult to use soldiers, although Jingzhou has enough money and food, but there is no Wuguan to send troops to respond, and Nanyang is not easy to fight." ”

Guan Yu was puzzled: "Then how to stop the Wei State from recuperating?" ”

Liu Chan smiled and said, "Borrow a knife to kill!"

Do you still remember when you first took Chang'an, Da Sima once offered a plan to let me win over Kebi to deal with Budugen? ”

Guan Yu frowned: "The forces of Budugen and Kebineng are both outside the Saiwai, if they attack each other, it will be beneficial for our Han to subdue and lose the state, but it can't prevent the Wei State from recuperating." ”

Zhuge Liang smiled when he heard this: "Yun Chang, you only see the appearance, but you don't see the mystery inside!" Come ......"

Zhuge Liang led everyone to the map, pointed to the map and said: "You see, Budugen and Kebineng are the two most powerful Xianbei forces in the world at present, and each has more than 100,000 people who control the strings.

Among them, the territory of Budugen is in the hometown of Bingzhou, occupying the former Hetao, the west of the Shangjun River, distributed in Yanmen, north of Taiyuan. And Kebineng's forces are in Daijun in Youzhou, in the north of Shanggu.

Now Your Majesty has successively attacked the Budugen, if the Budugen is destroyed, do you think what will happen to the north at that time? ”

Guan Yu looked at the map, his eyes lit up: "If the root of Budu is destroyed, my Han will occupy the hometown of Bingzhou, and connect the forces in the north to Youzhou. ”

"Not bad!" Zhuge Liang nodded and said: "There is no shortage of smart people in the Wei Kingdom, if Budugen and Kebi can attack each other, they will definitely understand this, in order to prevent my Han from recapturing the hometown of Bingzhou and connecting the forces with Youzhou, they will definitely help Budugen to deal with Kebineng." ”
