Sanguo: Banzi Shengtian, you call him Yanque?

Chapter 204: Maybe you can unite with Liu Zhang to fight against Cao Cao!

"Everyone, Cao's army is now powerful. After annexing Jiangdong, it is bound to turn around and deal with us. This is something I can't bear to see."

"So, I am determined to send an envoy to Cao Cao's camp to make friends with Cao Cao. What do you think?"

Liu Zhang said it nicely, but in fact he was cowardly, had no ambition, and just wanted to live in a corner.

The ministers and generals under his command naturally understood their lord, and they all sighed helplessly in their hearts.

Living in troubled times, it is obviously time to prove one's talents, but with such a lord, there is no chance of success.

But they still opened their mouths to dissuade him.

"Lord, you must not do this!"

Zhang Ren stood up first and said coldly: "My lord is a clan member of the Han clan. Cao Cao is now rebellious. It is a great opportunity for my lord to purge the Han clan. How can we be afraid of him?"

Wu Yi also nodded quickly and said: "My lord, we occupy Yizhou and have many soldiers and generals. We are fully capable of resisting Cao Cao. My lord, please don't lose confidence."

Fazheng stroked his beard and said with a cold smile: "Master, if we show weakness, Cao Cao will definitely think that we are easy to deal with, and he will turn around and deal with us."

"But if we take a tough stance, Cao Cao won't dare to underestimate us and won't attack easily. Moreover, if we just sit back and do nothing to Cao Cao, we are completely raising a tiger's risk."

After all, Liu Zhang is still a clan member of the Han Dynasty, and Cao Cao is an outsider. If he sits idly by, Cao Cao will eventually threaten the status of the Han Dynasty.

After listening to everyone's persuasion, Liu Zhang only felt irritable. All he wanted was to protect himself wisely and continue to enjoy the glory and wealth.

As for things like reviving the Han Dynasty and dealing with Cao Cao, he didn't even think about it!

Cao Cao's army pressed forward and made an offensive posture. Although there was no attack, it made everyone in Jiangdong panic.

The clansmen were panic-stricken and wanted to surrender to Cao Cao, but Sun Quan refused to listen and insisted on resisting to the end. In the eyes of the clansmen, this was seeking death.

They didn't want to accompany Sun to death, so they kept thinking of ways.

And Sun Quan's heart was filled with solemnity. At this moment, he finally felt the pressure brought by Cao Cao's army, as if he could crush Jiangdong at any time!

"It turns out that Zhou Yu and the others have always faced such a huge Cao army!"

Sun Quan was secretly surprised and quickly summoned Lu Su to discuss countermeasures.

Now all the ministers and clans want to surrender to Cao Cao. Only Lu Su, Zhou Yu and others suggest resisting to the end. Only they really care about the Sun family.

But besides recruiting troops, training the army, and appeasing the people, Lu Su didn't know how to resolve this crisis.

Both of them couldn't help but think of Zhou Yu.

"Well, if Gong Jin were here, I wouldn't be so melancholy." Sun Quan said with emotion.

Before, he thought that Zhou Yu held military power and did not take him seriously as his lord, but now he realized how important Zhou Yu really was.

Lu Su also sighed: "Yes, Gong Jin can always come up with countermeasures and is also a person who can turn the tide. What our army lacks now is such talents."

He did find a few capable candidates, such as Lu Meng, Lu Xun, etc., but they were all relatively inexperienced and not enough to convince the public. Even Sun Quan did not dare to trust them too much.

At this moment, Zhuge Liang suddenly asked for a meeting.

"What does this guy mean by coming here now?"

Sun Quan couldn't help but frowned, and he didn't have much favorable impression of Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang and others.

If it weren't for saving them, Jiangdong wouldn't be so tit-for-tat with Cao Cao's army now.

Lu Su's eyes lit up, because he knew that Zhuge Liang was also the kind of person who could turn the tide. Without Zhou Yu, he could ask Zhuge Liang for his opinion.

So after he told Sun Quan, he called Zhuge Liang over.

"I have met Wu Hou."

Zhuge Liang still maintains the air of a master, holding a feather fan, neither humble nor arrogant. Sun Quan nodded and sighed: "Now that Jiangdong is in danger, does Mr. Zhuge have any good ideas?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "I'm here just to offer you advice!"

Sun Quan and Lu Su looked at each other, their eyes shining with light.

"Mr. Zhuge, if you have any clever ideas, tell me quickly!"

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and said word by word: "Unite Shu to resist Cao!"

Shu is the land of Bashu, which refers to Yizhou Mu Liu Zhang.

Nowadays, except for Xiliang, Hanzhong, and Yizhou, even if other places want to stop Cao Cao, they are powerless.

Therefore, the strategy proposed by Zhuge Liang is very feasible!

"The land of Shu is Liu Zhang in Yizhou. Cao Cao will have to deal with Liu Zhang sooner or later. Moreover, Liu Zhang is a clan member of the Han Dynasty. We can't just let Cao Cao become powerful and ignore it."

"Besides, Yizhou has fertile land, sufficient food and grass, and a large army to guard it. It also has a group of loyal generals who are capable of fighting Cao Cao."

"If Liu Zhang can contain Cao Cao, Jiangdong will have a chance to breathe, and even if the two sides join forces, it is possible to defeat Cao Cao!"

After what Zhuge Liang said, Sun Quan's blood boiled with excitement, and he slapped the table and stood up.

"Yes, join forces with Liu Zhang. If we, Jiangdong, are destroyed, Liu Zhang will be next. He will definitely not be able to sit idly by!"

Sun Quan said excitedly, this is Jiangdong's way out.

Lu Su also smiled, nodded happily, and cupped his hands towards Zhuge Liang.

"Kong Ming, your strategy can be said to have saved Jiang Dong once."

Zhuge Liang quickly waved his hand: "Now that my lord and I both rely on Jiangdong, we naturally have to help each other."

After talking about the strategy, Zhuge Liang turned and left.

Sun Quan immediately sent a message to Liu Zhang to unite with him to fight against Cao Cao!

……

Jiangxia City.

Since Cao Cao occupied this place, it has almost become Cao Cao's official residence. After all, this can be regarded as the front line against Jiangdong.

And Ye Fan also has a big house in the city, but he used to live in the military camp and rarely came back.

But now that it's over, there's no need to be as nervous as before, so Ye Fan can return to his mansion every day.

Sun Shangxiang lived in Ye Fan's mansion just to see Ye Fan, whom she longed for, but the news from Jiangdong inevitably reached her ears.

Jiangdong was defeated and now in danger.

But living in the mansion and not being able to leave, Sun Shangxiang had no way of knowing the movements of Cao's army, and he didn't know what was happening in Jiangdong now, so he could only worry silently in his heart.

"Brother, mother, shouldn't I have sneaked out?"

Sun Shangxiang cried silently in her heart, and now she felt a little regretful.

But a woman is really insignificant in a troubled world. Even if she stays, it will have no significance to the overall situation.

She just wanted to know what happened to her brother and mother now.

Seeing Mark come back, she went directly to find him.
