The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 636 The Death of the Whole Mother ([-])

In the late autumn and July of that year, the Jingzhou Army and the Jiangzhou Army were still anxiously watching the current situation.

However, Quan Cong sent a letter of apology to Sun Quan, after all, it was sent from Zhuge Qiao's hand to Liu Chan's hand at the fastest speed.

Liu Chan was really stupid at the time.He never imagined that Quan Cong would do such a thing. Could it be that he is really a wimp, for the sake of his own future, he dare not even fart on such a big enemy as killing his mother?

Liu Chan originally imagined that Quan Cong could become Wu Zixu in the Three Kingdoms era, and he could go to war against his homeland to avenge his family.But judging from the current situation, Quan Cong is not only not Wu Zixu, but even Ling Tong.

At that time, Ling Tong's father, Ling Cao, was killed by Gan Ning, and he wanted to go to Gan Ning afterwards, although he was blocked by Sun Quan in the end.However, Ling Tong is still a bit bloody, and this Quan Cong is either really a wimp, or an extremely foolish and loyal person!
So, for the first time, Liu Chan was very unmannered in front of people, and yelled at others.The unlucky Quan Cong was immediately scolded bloody by Liu Chan.

But cursing belongs to cursing, Liu Chan already has the intention of wanting to cease the war again.

Then, as this news was sent to the generals, everyone felt very incredible.After all, Quan Cong didn't even write a letter to Sun Quan demanding that the murderer who killed his mother, Guo Shi, be severely punished, so he immediately apologized to the lord Sun Quan!
All the generals despised Quan Cong's character to the point that they couldn't despise him any more.

However, due to this final disillusionment, Zhang Fei still brought up the issue of whether the war with the Jiangdong Army should be ceased immediately.After all, he is now the de facto commander in chief of all the troops, and he has to put the overall situation first. Although raising such an issue made him feel a little frustrated in his self-esteem.

It is a little surprising that, at least Liu Chan did not expect that the opinions were divided into two factions. The Jiangzhou Army represented by Zhang Bao advocated that under the current situation, it is entirely possible to use this as an opportunity to go to the east. Wu seeks peace now.

On Deng Ai's side, he was surprisingly tough, saying that although the enemy army looked extremely powerful, whether it was the same as the Jiefan Army at that time was actually a bluff, which really needs to be tested in practice.Therefore, what Deng Ai meant was clearly that if Sun Jiao's army did not engage in a fight, he would not agree to a truce.

Moreover, what is even more surprising is that at this time, Deng Ai, Gai Meng, Xiong Ping, and Meng Xi unexpectedly achieved a temporary reconciliation inexplicably.They sent documents from Xiangtan as quickly as possible, expressing that they supported Deng Ai's view.

The Jiangzhou army was cautious, but the Jingzhou army, which should have been more cautious, suddenly behaved quite aggressively uncharacteristically.Such a contrast was indeed beyond Liu Chan's expectation.

In fact, the mentality of the generals of the Jingzhou Army is not difficult to understand.They really wanted to wipe out Sun Jiao's army as much as possible, at least they had to find ways to beat the enemy to the point of pain.

The question is, why would they do this?
The reason is actually not complicated. The Jingzhou Army already has lingering fears about the Jiangdong Army.Their original commander, Guan Yu, was killed by the Jiangdong army, even though they have now almost completely defeated the army led by Lu Meng.However, the scars left by Guan Yu's death may not be completely healed for a very long time in the future.

Now, the Jingzhou Army originally thought that after Lu Meng's troops were wiped out, the strength of the Jiangdong Army should have been greatly weakened.However, the appearance of Sun Jiao's large and elite new troops completely broke the joy of the Jingzhou army and made them deeply worried about the future of Jingzhou.

Because at that time, the peace between the Shu Han and the Jiangdong people will be restored, and it is impossible for the Jiangzhou army to stay in Jingzhou. They will return to Jiangzhou, where they are stationed.

However, in the future, once the Jiangdong people suddenly betray their faith again, their army can immediately attack Jingzhou again.Therefore, without the support of the Jiangzhou Army, will the Jingzhou Army have to endure the humiliation of being surrounded by Nanjun for the second time again, and it should be said that the ground is not effective every day?

Therefore, even Zhang Bao's people must have realized the strength of the enemy army, but under such deep worries, the Jingzhou army believed that even if there were sacrifices, they must go to war with Sun Jiao's army.Otherwise, the future situation of Jingzhou is still worrying.

Liu Chan only learned about the above situation after summoning Deng Ai alone and personally writing to Gai Meng to inquire about the situation.

Although Liu Chan is in charge of the Jingzhou Army, to some extent, he does not have a strong sense of belonging to the Jingzhou Army.But Deng Ai, Gai Meng and others are not. They are the generals in charge of the army, and they are always with their soldiers. Their roots are also in the Jingzhou army.Therefore, their feelings for Jingzhou are definitely much deeper than Liu Chan's.

Therefore, when they saw the new strength displayed by the Jiangdong Army, they collectively became overly worried.Of course, this kind of worry is contagious, and similar worries quickly appeared among the middle and low-level generals in the Jingzhou Army.

The emergence of these situations can already be regarded as the morale of the army, which made Zhang Fei and Liu Chan have to face up to this.It also made Liu Chan realize that his original idea of ​​persuading Deng Ai, Gai Meng and others to make them accept the idea of ​​peace talks with the Jiangdong Army seemed a bit too naive.

At the same time, it also shows that the situation in the military is very complicated, and many things cannot be handled with a wishful attitude.

However, the Jiangzhou Army represented by Zhang Bao, after such a long battle with the Jiangdong Army, has suffered a large number of casualties in both the land forces and the navy.

In fact, to put it bluntly, their Jiangzhou army is already tired now, and they don't want to continue to fight against a group of new and powerful enemies.In that case, it is definitely not worth the candle.

What's more, Zhang Bao's people also have their own little calculations, and Jingzhou is not their hometown.He fought for Jingzhou like that before, which can be regarded as being benevolent and righteous.

The Jiangzhou Army and the Jingzhou Army have two completely different ideas and mentalities, and it is doomed that it will be difficult for them to continue fighting with the Jiangdong Army in the future, resulting in huge differences.

As a result, there was a huge disagreement between Zhang Bao's side and Deng Ai's side, and the two sides immediately started a heated argument.

Later, Fan Jiang, who led the army far away on the Yangtze River, also joined the debate.Of course, he must be firmly on Zhang Bao's side.In this battle of Jingzhou, the loss of his naval army was actually the biggest, far exceeding the loss of the land troops of the Jiangzhou Army.

Seeing that the generals could not quickly come up with an acceptable plan, both Zhang Fei and Liu Chan felt the pressure at the same time.Of course, the two of them were very embarrassed.

As the commander-in-chief of the two armies at the front, Zhang Fei didn't want to express his biased intentions between the Jiangzhou Army and the Jingzhou Army in his heart, so as to give people an excuse.Moreover, he can understand the mentality of the Jingzhou army, not to mention that this is the army left by his brother Guan Yu.

The embarrassment for Liu Chan is that he is the son of the king of Hanzhong, so it is impossible to only favor the Jingzhou army.In his heart, like Zhang Fei, he wanted a bowl of water to calm down.

However, since the discussions among the generals in the army cannot reach a compromise, it means that Zhang Fei and Liu Chan need to make a final decision on this.After all, authority is in the hands of the two of them.

However, a new surprise appeared at this time.

Liu Chan's previous strategy of suggesting to Zhang Fei that he should wait and see how it changes, unexpectedly achieved fruitful results at this time.It also accidentally ended the debate temporarily, so that Zhang Fei and Liu Chan did not have to make a difficult choice between the two completely different views of the Jingzhou Army and the Jiangzhou Army.

Quan Cong sent a secret envoy to Xiangtan, and sent a letter to Zhang Fei and Liu Chan.

Huang Quan didn't dare to make decisions on his own, first he received Quan Cong's envoy and asked him to stay in Xiangtan City to rest for a while.Then Huang Quan immediately sent the fastest posthorse to send Quan Cong's letter to Zhang Fei's military camp.

After Zhang Fei and Liu Chan got the letter from Quan Cong, they were really surprised.

They have recently written a letter of apology to Sun Quan because of Quan Cong, and they have received great praise from Sun Quan, and they have continued to secure the position of Lukou Governor, and they have completely lost their expectations for this person.However, why did Quan Cong suddenly contact him again at this juncture?
