Chapter Eighty-Five: Adding fuel to the fire
Sun Quan was also taken aback when he received the news that Liu Bei was attacking Jiangzhou and intended to attack Jingzhou. .// On the one hand, he ordered Ling Tong to do a good job of defense, and on the other hand, he hurriedly convened the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs to discuss countermeasures.
In the mansion of King Wu of Jianye, Sun Quan and a group of civil and military officers were all worried. Liu Bei led 300,000 troops this time, and came madly, the number of soldiers in Jiangdong was insufficient, and he had not fought for a long time, and there were no generals to send, which was really a headache. Some people suggested that Sun Quan tie up Fan Jiang and Zhang Da and 'hand' Liu Bei, and then send money and beautiful 'women' to negotiate peace with Liu Bei.
Zhang Zhao waved his hand: Liu Bei intends to Jiangdong this time, even if Fan Jiang and Zhang Da are 'handed over' to Liu Bei, it may not be possible, the old minister thinks that they can ask Li Hui for help, if Li Hui is willing to help, Jiangdong will naturally have no worries.
Zhang Hong snorted coldly: Li Hui, villain, has never been a loss-making business, they asked him for help, I don't know what he will ask for, if he also intends to Jiangdong, wouldn't it lead the wolf into the house?
Right! Right! Everyone agreed with Zhang Hong's LacZ method.
Sun Quan thought about it and didn't pay attention. Sigh: Hey! Since Liu Bei doesn't care about the alliance, they can only fight, Yu Zhu, you can go to Jiangzhou to negotiate peace with Liu Bei, Han Dang, Chen Wu, the two of you quickly gather the team, and go to Jingzhou to cooperate with Ling Tong to garrison, don't remember, don't 'fight' with the Yizhou army!
Sure enough, as Zhang Zhao expected, Liu Bei did not mean anything about Sun Quan's peace talks. Yu Chuan didn't even see Liu Bei's face, and was blasted out. Yu was helpless and could only return to Jianye to resume his life. Sun Quandao: It seems that Liu Bei is determined to be the enemy of others, is it true that the lone king should beg Li Hui?
Gu Yongdao: My lord, there is another law under my subordinates.
Fast! Sun Quan was in a hurry to go to the doctor.
Gu Yongdao: Now that Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty and called the emperor, it is still orthodox, why not the lord to Cao Pi to call his ministers, Liu Bei led the army to come this time, the rear must be empty, as long as Cao Pi attacks from the rear, Liu Bei retreats without a fight!
Never! Zhang Hong hurriedly said: Cao Pi is also a thief, the lord must not be in the same stream as him, otherwise he will be laughed at by the world, and he is a great Han courtier, how can there be a reason to surrender to the usurper?
Pedantic! Gu Yongdao: \u201OHow can we relieve the danger of Jiangdong, and what can we do about being a minister? Cao Pi is thousands of miles away from Jiangdong, can he still manage them? As long as Cao Pi agrees, he can't sit back and watch them be bullied by Liu Bei, sending troops is inevitable, and if he retreats Liu Bei's troops, it depends on them in the future!
Hum! Zhang Hong said angrily: What is the difference between surrendering to Cao Pi and uniting with Li Hui, on the contrary, Li Hui is the husband of the county lord, and he is closer to them!
Gu Yong didn't say anything, and there was silence in the entire hall. Sun Quan's face was ugly. A group of ministers fought back and forth, but no result was reached. Sun Quan got up and left, and Zhang Zhao hurriedly chased him out. Sun Quan was under the eaves and saw Zhang Zhao coming: "Boss, you\\
Zhang Zhaodao: The plan for today is to solve the crisis in Jiangdong as soon as possible, whether it is Li Hui or Cao Pi, as long as it is beneficial to Jiangdong, the lord must make a decision immediately, and no longer be a "woman" of the benevolence of others, the face is small Jiangdong is big! The lord should think twice!
Sun Quan sent out to unite Li Hui's envoys and had not yet left the city. Unexpectedly, Li Hui actually sent someone to come, Pang Tong had an ugly face, accompanied by Zhao Yun, and entered Jianye City. As soon as he entered the city, he let the soldiers spread the news that Liu Bei was preparing to attack Jiangzhou and preparing to attack Dongwu, and Jianye would be in a miasma, and everyone would be in danger.
Pang Tong did not rush to see Sun Quan, but came to the 'gate' of Zhang Zhao's mansion. After the 'door' person announced, Zhang Zhao opened the 'door' and personally greeted him. After the greetings, several people entered the house and sat down with the guests. Zhang Zhao had long heard of the name of Feng Xiao Pang Tong, not to mention that Pang Tong was still Li Huiren, of course, he was a guest.
While sipping tea, Zhang Zhao smiled and asked: Mr. Feng Xiao, is this time for Jingzhou's business?
Pang Tongyi smiled: Lord Zhang is an understanding person, so he will not beat around the bush, yes, it is on the order of the lord of the family, I have come to tell Lord Zhang and King Wu that they have joined forces with Liu Bei and want to send troops together, hoping that King Wu will leave Jianye as soon as possible, so as not to hurt himself!
Yes! Zhang Zhao was shocked, and the tea bowl in his hand almost didn't fall to the ground: This! This\\, your two families are relatives, and the head of the family is General Li\\
Master Zhang, don't forget that King Wu married his sister to Liu Bei! Pang Tong reminded Zhang Zhao: \u201OAlthough the tenth lady is also surnamed Sun, can't the surname Sun be a relative of King Wu in this world, right?
Zhang Zhao had nothing to say, Sun Quan married his sister to Liu Bei, and Sun Ren ran to Li Hui halfway. From the perspective of etiquette, Liu Bei is Sun Quan's brother-in-law. Zhang Zhao thought for a while: Mr. Feng Xiao can't be like this, even if it is not the matter of the county lord, General Li has a good relationship with the old lord and the Sun family, and now this is a stone, is it a little \\
Pang Tongdao: The world is in great chaos, at this time and that time, General Sun Jian is indeed like an uncle and nephew with the head of the family, but since Sun Ce, you don't seem to regard the head of the family as a brother!
Zhang Zhao's heart suddenly moved, and he said with a smile: Why should Mr. Feng Xiao bother, please ask Mr. to quote that General Li is willing to send troops only if he has the conditions?
Hahaha\\ Pang Tong laughed: Lord Zhang is really powerful, so quickly he can see the real meaning, since this is the case, just LacZ, but Lord Zhang has to think about it, everyone in the world knows that the head of the family has always had a great appetite for business!
Sir, please speak! Zhang Zhao smiled.
Pang Tongdao: Jingzhou is the land of the four wars, there is Liu Bei in the west, Cao Pi in the north, you in the east, and Nanban in the south.
Zhang Zhao's face immediately turned 'pale' and 'gloomy'. It turned out that Li Hui had taken a fancy to Jingzhou, and if he took Jingzhou, he could attack from all sides, whether it was Liu Bei, Cao Pi or himself, they were all under Li Hui's two-sided or even three-sided attack. In case Li Hui gets angry, he can kill any of them at any time.
Isn't this condition a bit \\ Zhang Zhaodao.
Pang Tongyi smiled: \u201O is not over yet, the head of the family left Chaisang in the past, there is no lantern color, there is no mezzanine to welcome him will not come to Jiangdong, now the head of the family wants to go to Jiangdong for a walk, I don't know if King Wu can be fulfilled?
Zhang Zhao hesitated, Li Hui not only wanted Jingzhou but also humiliated Sun Quan. However, Pang Tongyan TpDs understands very well that if he doesn't agree to the conditions, Jiangdong may not be able to keep it, and he doesn't dare to agree to such a big thing easily. He said to Pang Tong: This matter is very important, and it needs to be discussed with King Wu, and I ask Mr. Feng Xiao to wait! Come on, arrange a room for Mr. Feng Xiao and General Zhao, and live in our house!
