The Three Kingdoms began with the rescue of Mrs. Mi

Chapter 718 Appease the wives and concubines, Wei Wu alliance

Backstab, summation; backstab, summation.

This cycle went on and on, Sun Quan had fun playing this game, but Liu Feng was tired.

Again and again, not again and again, the alliance between Shuhan and Soochow, under Sun Quan's repeated betrayal, is now in name only.

For the Shu Han who had won Tongguan and Runan, and whose overall national strength surpassed that of Wei and Wu, the importance of Soochow was actually not that important.

If the alliance exists, Liu Feng will concentrate on attacking Wei.

If the alliance disintegrates, then Wei and Wu will fight together, and at most it will take some effort.

Due to Wang Ling's hesitation, it is unlikely that he would quickly occupy Luoyang and expel the Sima family from the court of Wei.

It will take a process of adaptation for the scholars in the Central Plains to accept a separatist regime from the southwest to rule them.

With the retreat of Sima Zhao and the surrender of Li Xu and Man Wei, Runan County has been occupied by Cao Ying's King Qin's army. Xuchang, the southern capital of Wei State in Yingchuan, is surrounded by the Han army on three sides. The situation is not the same as that of Wancheng a few years ago. What a difference.

The generals of the Wei army guarding Xuchang have been replaced by Tian Yu and Qianhong.

These two people, speaking of it, are quite related to Liu Bei,

When Tian Yu was young, he used to be with Liu Bei for a period of time. Later, when Liu Bei went south, Tian Yu left because he wanted to serve his mother.

Qianhong himself has nothing to do with Liu Bei, but his father Qianzhao and Liu Bei once became brothers, and the time of this sworn brotherhood was before Liu Guan and Zhang Taoyuan became sworn brothers.

"He Shuo, the young man, shares the same contract with the heroes, and is a friend who kills the neck."

This comment is about Liu Bei and Qianzhao's sworn brotherhood. However, the words are nice, but it does not mean that the true brotherhood is strong. Later, Qianzhao first defected to Yuan Shao. After Yuan Shao was defeated, he was reused by Cao Cao. The prefect of the gate passed away.

Qianhong was one of the Wei generals who destroyed Shu in history. He mainly fought against Longyou with Deng Ai. After the fall of Shu, Qianhong and Hu Lie guarded the Hexi area of ​​Jin State, and ended up suppressing the function of the bald tree. Died in the rebellion.

Both Tian Yu and Qianhong are rare good generals who can resist the Hulu. Liu Feng wants to revitalize the Han people again, but he cannot do without the support of the Han generals. Liu Feng hopes that Tian Yu and Qianhong can become a new batch of voters. Representative of the generals of the Wei State of the Han Dynasty.

"Send an order to Mrs. Xu to find out the real reason why Sun Quan sent troops to Shouchun, and whether there are envoys from Wei State lobbying." As soon as Liu Feng arrived in Xiangyang, he sent a signal to the officials of the Qin Palace.

The battle against Wei basically came to an end.

Liu Feng also had a chance to free up his hands, and was going to go back to Jiangling and Xiakou, and talk to Sun Quanli about his despicable behavior in Huainan.

During this period, Bu Lianshi and Sun Shangxiang wrote quite frequently, blaming Liu Feng for not going there for a long time and neglecting them, which made Liu Feng feel guilty.

National affairs are important, and family affairs are equally important.

Long-term separation between the two places will inevitably bring estrangement, and it is also a responsibility to fulfill the obligations of a husband.

Women need men to comfort them, and Liu Feng doesn't want to disappoint his women.

-

In the city of Hefei.

At this time, Sun Quan was talking to Wei Guolai's envoy Jiang Ji.

Jiang Ji took Sima Yi's order before, and went to Shouchun to lobby Wang Ling. With his sharp tongue, he successfully delayed Wang Ling's attack on Luoyang.

After Sima Yi's death, after discussing with Sima Shi and Sima Zhao brothers, Jiang Ji decided to go to Wu as an envoy to discuss rebuilding the alliance between Wei and Wu.

This moment, that moment.

If the four words Wei Wu alliance were placed in the era of Cao Pi and Cao Rui, it would be unimaginable.

But now, Jiang Ji feels that it is necessary to talk to Sun Quan, and the two countries will jointly deal with the Shu Han.

Sun Quan's mentality towards Jiang Ji is very contradictory. He admires his talent and hates his fame. The main reason is that Jiang Yiyi's name was obtained by using his Sun Quan as the background.

"Zitong, let me think about your proposal again. I just have something that bothers me. There are rumors in the world that you used a fake letter to scare away my army of one hundred thousand. This rumor is so wrong. If it can be clarified . . ”

Sun Quan glared at Jiang Ji with blue eyes, and said that if this matter cannot be handled properly, the Wei Wu Alliance will avoid talking about it.

The world has been suffering for a long time.

He, Sun Quan, also suffered for a long time from Zhang Liao, Jiang Ji and other bitter masters of the Wei state.

In the Battle of Xiaoyaojin, one hundred thousand troops were defeated by Zhang Liao's eight hundred men. This is an undeniable fact, and Sun Quan has no way to change it.

As for Jiang Ji's letter to scare away Sun Wu's army, as long as Jiang Ji, the person concerned, comes forward to clarify, it will be able to wash away Sun Quan's stigma of military incompetence to a large extent.

"Master Wu, don't worry, Ji will write down the whole story and return Master Wu's innocence." Hearing Sun Quan's words, Jiang Ji hesitated a little, with a troubled expression on his face, but soon he made a decision.

For the overall situation of Wei and Wu's resistance against Shu, what does Jiang Ji's personal reputation matter?
As long as Sun Quan and the Sima brothers can be successfully lobbied to form an alliance, Wei State will no longer be fighting alone. If Shu State attacks Luoyang or other places in Wei State, then Wu Jun will flank behind it, and a game of dead chess will be over. Go live.

Sun Quan received Jiang Ji's benefits, and the things that had been pent up in his heart for half his life were finally released, which made him very happy.

In fact, even if Jiang Ji didn't come, Sun Quan also intends to send envoys to Wei Guo to try to contact them. With the Shu Han becoming more and more powerful, Wu Guo must have an ally if it wants to survive.

"Zitong, after you go back, you can tell Major General Sima that Shouchun can continue to belong to Wei, as long as Guangling belongs to Great Wu."

Although Shouchun is a strategically important place, as long as Wu State occupies it, it can control the Jianghuai River, push Xuzhou and Yanzhou, and even threaten the safety of Luoyang, the capital of Wei Dynasty.

With Wei and Wu hostile, it is of great significance to win Shouchun.

But under the general trend that Wei and Wu are getting closer and closer, Shouchun has little value in Wu's hands, and Sun Quan is now discouraged. He just wants to keep his current territory, and has no idea of ​​​​running a long way to take Luoyang.

Luoyang, a place surrounded by the Kingdom of Shu for the Four Wars, has no strategic value for the Kingdom of Wu.

On the contrary, the value of Guangling State is much greater than that of Shouchun.

During the Three Kingdoms period at the end of the Han Dynasty, the territory of Guangling was not limited to Yangzhou, but also Sheyang, Huaiyin, Haixi and other places. These places were close to the sea and rich in sea salt. , that can alleviate distressed financial resources.

Jiang Ji did not raise any objections to Sun Quan's conditions.

Wang Ling and Linghuyu of Huainan established themselves in the name of Cao Biao, the king of Chu. Wei's rule in the Jianghuai area existed in name only. If Shouchun could not be regained, Guangling's governance would be impossible.

Rather than having nothing, it is better to abandon Guangling Kingdom and first seek to suppress the rebellion of Wang Ling and Cao Biao.
