"After the Central Plains War, the situation in the world has changed, and Hebei is like a rainbow and will soon sweep the world. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoIn order to prevent Li Yi from usurping the Han Sheji, Yuan Shao, Liu Biao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei and others were anxious to recover and prepared to join forces to fight Hebei again. But whether it can defeat Hebei, no one knows. In this case, the Yangtze River became the last barrier to prevent Li Yiquan from taking the world, and stabilizing Jingzhou, Yangzhou and Yizhou became the most urgent task for the coalition forces. ”

"At present, although there is Zhang Xian's rebellion in Jingzhou, Liu Biao will soon be able to calm down. The dispute between Liu Zhang and Zhao Wei in Yizhou is estimated to take a while to determine the winner, but the day the two of them divide the winner is the day when Yizhou is lost. I can be sure that Yuan Shao and Liu Biao are both eyeing Yizhou at the moment, and they will send troops to attack when the time is right. The situation in Yangzhou is the most chaotic. The two counties of Jiangbei were taken away by Cao Cao and Yuan Yao, and the four counties of Jiangdong were occupied by me and Gongjin. But no matter whether Cao Cao and Yuan Yao competed, or Gong Jin and I competed, in the end, it was not the attacking sides that benefited, but other opponents who were eyeing each other. ”

"After my father and I went north, if the three counties of Jiangdong were not well controlled, there would be a rebellion. Jiangdong rebelled, and Cao Cao and Yuan Yao in Jiangbei would definitely take advantage of the situation to go south, and Jiangdong would immediately fall into a crisis. Jiangdong is in a crisis, and the most nervous is not us, but Gongjin. ”

"Gongjin now has only one Yuzhang County, his west is Liu Biao, north is Cao Cao and Yuan Yao, east is us, surrounded by enemies on three sides, the slightest carelessness is the annihilation of the whole army. Therefore, he was most worried about chaos in Jiangdong, so that Cao Cao and Yuan Yao would get the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. ”

"Cao Cao and Yuan Yao hit Jiangdong, how could Liu Biao let go of such an opportunity? At that time, we can withdraw to Wu County and Huiji, but Zhou Yu is divided and surrounded, and there is no escape, and he will die overnight. The reason why Zhou Yu is currently clinging to Anhui City and living in the nest is precisely to prevent this from happening. And the reason why I evacuated Lujiang in a hurry was precisely to drag his army in Lujiang, so that even if he had the intention to seize the three counties of Jiangdong, he would not have time to divide his troops. ”

"The situation in Koto has become a dead game. If Gongjin wants to survive, he must defend the Lujiang River, he must ensure the stability of the three counties of Jiangdong, and he must work together with me. After my father and I went north, in order to ensure the stability of the three counties of Jiangdong, Gongjin had to help you wholeheartedly. Otherwise, Koto is lost, and everyone is finished together. ”

"What about the future? What will happen in the future? Sun Quan asked.

Sun Ce probably said that he was tired and didn't speak for a long time.

Sun Quan asked again: "Big brother......"

"It's your business in the future, and I'll talk about it when my father and I come back." Sun Ce glanced at Sun Quan and said with some lack of energy, "If we can't come back, then Jiangdong will be your world in the future, and we won't be able to help you." ”

That night, Sun Jian left Moling with Sun Ce and handed over the affairs of Jiangdong to Sun Quan.

………………

Zhou Yu received an urgent letter from Mrs. Sun, learned that Sun Ce's injuries were getting worse and worse, and he had to go north to seek medical treatment, and entrusted Sun Quan to him, asking him to go to Moling to assist Sun Quan.

Zhou Yu's subordinates repeatedly dissuaded him. At this moment, the situation in Jiangdong was critical, and Sun Quan was very likely to kill Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu had made up his mind and insisted on going to Moling.

Sun Quan and Jiangdong officials greeted each other thirty miles outside Moling City. Sun Quan is a brother and extremely respectful.

When he arrived at the foot of Moling City, Zhou Yu saw Mrs. Sun, Wu Jing, Sun Jing and others personally greet him, and he was so excited that he burst into tears, bowed to the ground, and called him his mother.

Mrs. Sun hugged Zhou Yu, thinking of her eldest son Sun Ce, who was in a state of life, and couldn't help but feel sad and cried loudly.

After the meeting, Zhou Yu and Sun Quan and other Jiangdong ministers discussed the situation in Jiangdong, and they all felt that the mountain rain was coming, and the situation was grim.

Early the next morning, Zhou Yu prepared to leave under the pretext of the tense battle situation in Lujiang. Sun Quan, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong and others tried their best to keep them, but Zhou Yu was very resolute.

Sun Quan had no choice but to accompany him to the inner mansion to bid farewell to Mrs. Sun.

Hearing that Zhou Yu was leaving, Mrs. Sun suddenly burst into tears and asked, "Why is Gongjin leaving?" Jiangdong is so critical, can't you stay and help Zhongmou? ”

Zhou Yu's eyes were slightly red, and he was silent. Sun Quan took the opportunity to persuade again, and Zhou Yu said with a difficult face: "I have already said, as long as I, Zhou Yu, am here in one breath, when Jiangdong is safe, please rest assured that my mother and Zhongmou are safe." ”

"Gongjin, stay, even if I beg you." Old Madam Sun grabbed Zhou Yu's hand and cried and said, "Jiangdong is in danger, but Zhongmou is young and unable to control the three counties, so I asked Gongjin to stay and help." ”

"It's not that I don't want to stay, it's that the situation on the front line is too tense." Zhou Yu said helplessly, "Once the news of Bo Fu's serious injury spreads, Cao Cao and Yuan Yao in Jiangbei and Liu Biao in Jingzhou will inevitably take the opportunity to attack in two ways. As long as they break through the Yangtze River natural danger, I will no longer have a way to save the situation. ”

Old Madam Sun shook her head and said, "Since Gongjin is determined to leave, let's take the three counties of Jiangdong with you." ”

Zhou Yu was taken aback, hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said: "Mother, the situation in Jiangdong is extremely serious, and the only way to keep Jiangdong is to defend the Yangtze River. ”

Sun Quan also knelt down beside Mrs. Sun at this time, holding Sun Ce's seal ribbon in his hand, handed it over respectfully, and said: "Mother, my son is incompetent and unable to bear the heavy responsibility of the three counties of Jiangdong, please mother hand over the three counties of Jiangdong to my brother." ”

Zhou Yu was shocked, cold sweat broke out, and his whole body trembled.

If you don't stay today, this head won't be saved anyway.

"Gong Jin, take the three counties of Jiangdong." Old Madam Sun held the seal ribbon in her hand and slowly sent it to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu knelt on the ground, looked down at the cold ground, and smiled bitterly: "Mother, I listen to you, I will stay." ”

"Gongjin ......" Mrs. Sun hugged Zhou Yu excitedly, crying silently, "Son...... Thank you ......."

………………

Sun Quan summoned the Jiangdong officials to discuss urgently.

Hearing that Zhou Yu was going to stay in Moling and assist Sun Quan to stabilize the four counties of Jiangdong, Jiangdong Wenwu suddenly cheered, and the panic and sorrow in his heart disappeared in an instant, and the haze shrouded in the sky over Moling disappeared immediately.

Sun Jian was a general before the captives, and Sun Ce was a general who was the general of the captives, supervising the three counties of Jiangdong. Zhou Yu is the general of Jianwei Zhonglang and the leader of Yuzhang County. The official positions of these two people were enshrined by decree of the Son of Heaven.

Although Sun Quan has fought a lot of battles with Sun Ce and made a lot of contributions, so far he is only a school captain, and he has no official documents from the imperial court, so to put it bluntly, he is a commander of Sun Ce's personal department.

According to the laws of the Great Han Dynasty, he was not qualified to supervise the military administration of Jiangdong after Sun Ce's death, and he had no right to command and dispatch Zhou Yu and the county guards with Sun Ce's seal. If you want to dig deeper, Sun Quan's practice is a major crime of rebellion to kill the nine clans.

Now the people of the three counties of Jiangdong can raise troops at will, and there are very good reasons. What qualifications does Sun Quan have to take charge of the three counties of Jiangdong? Are the three counties of Jiangdong the private property of his grandson's family?

Regardless of whether it was according to the laws of the Great Han Dynasty or according to the family patriarchal law, Sun Quan was not qualified to supervise the three counties of Jiangdong, nor was he qualified to inherit Sun Ce's army and property.

Sun Quan is now a complete Han rebellion, a family rebellion, and everyone will be punished.

However, Sun Quan is very smart, he will not do such a stupid thing, become the target of public criticism, and plunge the three counties of Jiangdong into the abyss of war.

According to the law of the Han Dynasty, the general Sun Ce could not be the director, and the military and political affairs should be led by Shi Zhangzhao, the head of the general's mansion. When the new appointment of the imperial court is down, Zhang Zhao's acting authority can be handed over.

Zhang Zhao was a famous scholar in Pengcheng, Xuzhou, and belonged to the Liuyu scholars in Jiangdong, and was the first subordinate to follow Sun Jian's father and son south to Jiangdong. Although he was very famous in the Jianghuai area, he was not recognized by the clan of the gate lord in Jiangdong, and he could not help Sun Quan quickly stabilize the three counties in Jiangdong. Of course, he can't control the powerful Jiangdong generals.

Now that Zhou Yu is staying in Moling, the most difficult and difficult problems faced by Sun Quan have all been solved.

Zhou Yu was a general in Jianwei, a high-ranking official in Jiangdong after Sun Ce, and he nominally supervised the military administration of the four counties in Jiangdong, which was completely in line with the provisions of the Great Han Law. The county officials of Jiangdong and the generals of the Jiangdong Army at all levels could not raise objections.

Zhou Yu had an army in his hands and was strong in force, and his open support for Sun Quan was tantamount to a sudden increase in Sun Quan's strength.

So far, Sun Quan has not fully controlled the Jiangdong Army.

The composition of the Jiangdong Army was very complicated, with Sun Jian's old subordinates, such as Huang Gai, Zhu Zhi and others. There are the juniors of Sun Jian's old subordinates and the young generals who grew up with Sun Ce, such as Zhu Ran, the son of Zhu Zhi, Zhang Cheng, the son of Zhang Zhao, and Zhu Huan, the son of Zhu Zhi. There are generals recruited by Sun Ce from Jiangdong, such as Jiang Qin, Zhou Tai, Dong Xi, Ling Cao, Chen Wu, Lü Meng and others. There are parts of Wu Jing, Sun Jing, Sun Ben and others.

Among these people, Sun Jian's old subordinates and Wu Jing, Sun Jing, Sun Ben and other clan armies naturally obeyed the orders of Old Lady Sun after Sun Jian and Sun Ce went north, so as not to be involved in the struggle for family power. Behind Sun Quan was Mrs. Sun, and Sun Quan was rightfully supported by these armies.

However, Sun Ce's personal troops and Jiangdong generals loyal to Sun Ce would not obey Mrs. Sun, and it was this part of the army that Sun Quan could not directly control. And this part of the army turned to be the main force of the Jiangdong Army, which made Sun Quan's position shaky and full of crises.

Zhou Yu stayed in Moling, and the main force of the army was in the area of Wancheng, Juchao and Quarry Rock. If there is a slight disturbance in Moling, Zhou Yu's army can quickly kill it. The Jiangdong generals were forced to threaten, even if they were very dissatisfied with Sun Quan, they did not dare to openly provoke, let alone be dissatisfied, and plotted against each other.

Under Zhou Yu's escort, Sun Quan could smoothly inherit Sun Ce's army and property, and gradually establish and consolidate his own power.
