Three Kingdoms, I'm really not a general!

Chapter 265 The rise of Sun Quan?
Although Xing Daorong's literary talent is not as good as those great writers, he is good at scolding people.

He said he wanted to help Cui Yan write a manifesto, and he finished it the next day.

"The fake Wang Cao is not kind and docile by nature, and his origin is humble and lowly."

"In the past, the descendants of eunuchs were favored by the emperor, but they did not think of repaying the favor."

"In addition, he has the heart of a viper and the nature of a jackal. He is close to evil and perverted. He kills loyal and good people, slaughters loyal and virtuous people, murders the king and poisons the people. He is hated by both humans and gods, and cannot be tolerated by heaven and earth."

"Now I ask all the wise men everywhere to either abandon the dark and join the light, or fight hard to defeat the rebels, and fight this villain together!"

"Restore the purity of heaven and earth, so that treacherous villains have nowhere to hide, and never help the tyrant to commit atrocities, otherwise you will be infamous for thousands of years and bring disaster to future generations."

Cui Lin looked at this part of Xing Daorong's manifesto and sighed: "People often say that if Xing Daorong lived in a prosperous era, he would definitely be a great talent."

"I didn't believe it before. I thought there was no such person in the world who was both civil and military. It wasn't until I saw it with my own eyes today that I knew it was true."

"This manifesto has been sent to Yecheng. Even those who don't have any thoughts on it will have to think about it."

Hearing Cui Lin sigh, Cui Yan immediately said: "If it weren't for this, how could I have thought of teaching my niece to marry him?"

"This person is smart, yet has a sense of justice, has lofty ambitions, yet is loyal to his country, helping the weak and eliminating the strong."

"Knowing the great principles and understanding the details is a role model for the world."

Cui Lin sighed upon hearing this: "It's a pity that I was deceived by Cao and didn't know that he was a wolf in nature. I missed the opportunity."

Cui Yan listened and comforted him: "Brother, you don't have to be like this. Things in the world are unpredictable. Maybe there will be a turnaround."

"For now, let's polish this manifesto."

Cui Lin nodded slightly, and the two Cui brothers immediately began to "add fuel to the fire". Their writing skills were so sharp that Xing Daorong could not compare with them.

What he wrote is much better than what Xing Daorong wrote.

The effect sent out really falls into the category of "critical hit".

...

The manifesto itself is sharply written, and the fact that it is signed by the "Cui brothers" adds another layer of buff.

The "Cui brothers" even wrote a manifesto, which shows how much Cao Cao was hated!
That's exactly what happened.

From the massacre in Xuzhou, to the killing of famous gentry in Yanzhou, to inviting foreign races to attack, the Cui brothers' manifestos fiercely attacked Cao Cao from a righteous perspective.

Once this manifesto was released, coupled with the fact that Cao Cao had obviously had serious health problems recently, the Cao family was truly in a precarious situation for a while.

But the power of this manifesto goes beyond that.

When Sun Quan arrived in Jiangdong and saw this manifesto, some thoughts came to his mind.

The next day, they set up a big tent and discussed the matter.

...

"Everyone, the Cui family has already surrendered to Chengdu. Now that Yecheng is in turmoil, I think this is the best time for us to send troops."

"Today I want to raise the banner of rebellion and attack Cao Cao again. What do you think?"

Sun Quan's attitude of wanting to fight right from the start caught the Jiangdong generals by surprise.

Ever since the defeat in Jingzhou and the death of Grand Commander Lu Meng, Sun Quan seemed to be caught in a struggle with himself.

Immersed in internal harmony, they have no ambition to conquer the outside world.

As Liu Bei completely conquered Xiliang and his troops were heading straight for Chang'an, Jiangdong had actually become the weakest link among the three forces.

If this continues, Jiangdong will slowly fall into decline.

It is indeed surprising that Sun Quan now brazenly wants to attack Cao Cao.

At that moment, the two commanders on the left and right, Lu Su and Lu Xun, stepped forward and bowed, saying, "What the Lord Wu said is correct. Cao Cao is weak now, so we should raise an army and attack him." Sun Quan saw that the two commanders immediately agreed, and he smiled and nodded, saying, "It seems that the two commanders have the same idea as me, and both think that it is a good time to attack Cao Cao."

"In that case, we will raise our troops immediately and attack Cao Cao!"

Lu Xun immediately stepped forward and said, "Lord Wu, although Cao Cao is weak, the troops in Hefei have not been mobilized at all."

"If you want to attack, you have to raise a large army!"

"The situation in Jingzhou has calmed down now. Liu Bei must not attack Jiangdong and offend the two families."

"We can mobilize the troops from Chaisang now and send them all to Lukou."

"Raise two more armies. One will attack Hefei, and the other will make a feint attack on Jiujiang."

Lu Xun spoke eloquently, but Sun Quan was slightly stunned.

But he quickly reacted and nodded slightly, saying, "Okay! Lu Su, you mobilize 10,000 elite soldiers to the intersection, and only leave 5,000 in Chaisang. Be careful that Liu Bei will betray us again."

It is indeed a bit of an exaggeration to say that Liu Bei was treacherous, but in Sun Quan's heart, Liu Bei was just a villain who borrowed land and did not return it.

Then he said to Lu Xun: "Bo Yan, I have sent 10,000 elite soldiers from Chaisang, and I will send another 10,000 elite soldiers from my own army to you. In addition, I have 20,000 troops from Lukou. Is that enough?"

Lu Xun calculated that 40,000 troops would be enough to attack Hefei.

In fact, in a tiny place like Hefei, 40,000 people were enough to surround it tightly.

However, the lack of continuous support from the rear in Hefei is a big problem.

When Lu Xun wanted to attack Hefei, he actually faced not only Zhang Liao, the defender of Hefei, but also reinforcements from Shouchun, Runan and other places.

He then said: "If we want to attack Hefei, we need to ask the Marquis of Wu to lead his troops to Jiujiang to make a feint attack, and then we can succeed."

Lu Xun was quite courageous. As the commander-in-chief, he directly gave orders to his lord.

However, Sun Quan seemed to be determined to attack Cao Cao today. He nodded and said, "Okay, let me use myself as bait to help the governor and defeat Cao Wei!"

After saying this, without asking other advisers, he waved his flag, stood up and shouted: "Today we will attack Cao Cao again, and we must defeat this villain!"

His Highness and the others hurried forward to pay their respects.

"We all follow the footsteps of Lord Wu!"

At this moment, the people of Jiangdong were united.

They may just say they are of the same mind, but it is not certain whether they are so in their hearts.

Everyone knows what the situation is like, but it depends on how it changes.

In any case, Sun Quan's ambitions did cause some slight changes in Jiangdong.

Even some of the Jiangdong noble families, who originally looked down on Sun Quan, now hoped that he could do something.

At this moment in the Lu Mansion, old friends Quan Cong, Lu Ji, and Gu Shao gathered together again, talking about Sun Quan's actions.

However, Quan Cong said: "This is a rare opportunity for the Marquis of Wu to take action, so we should give him our full support."

Gu Shao also said: "Yes, the Jiangdong noble families are all supporting us this time. With their manpower and efforts, we can definitely defeat Cao!"

Seeing that his two friends were so confident, Lu Ji remained silent.

Logically speaking, this time Sun Quan despised Lu Su and promoted Lu Xun, so Lu Ji should have been very happy.

Why does he look so depressed, as if he is hesitant in some way?

Just as he was about to ask, he heard Lu Ji suddenly ask, "Have we set the date for this year's tasting meeting?"
