It was dark in the night. In the Wujun Government Affairs Office, several oil lamps were lit up brightly, and Sun Quan's figure was reflected on the surrounding walls, big or small, light or dark.

Sun Quan sat on the desk and looked at the documents he had been in contact. Even though he had reached his current position, he still had to do a lot of desk work, not just throwing the matter to his subordinates.

Although the bureaucratic system of the Han Dynasty was almost collapsed, the general structure was still preserved and became a copy of Sun Quan's current establishment of a new system. These documents were Sun Quan's control, coordination and management of his own Jiangdong system.

Zhou Yu is here.

Then Zhou Yu left again.

It was not Zhou Yu's original intention to be in a hurry, but only in this way can Sun Quan feel at ease. Zhou Yu had previously stated that if there was no major event, he would train soldiers in Baqiu. If Zhou Yu hadn't been able to bear this time, he might not have come like this.

Sun Quan loved and hated Zhou Yu, and was very complicated.

It can be said that in Jiangdong, Zhou Yu's status is not lower than Sun Quan, and the reason is very simple. First of all, Zhou Yu was the one who raised the army with Sun Ce. At that time, Jiangdong was still a mess and had nothing. It can be said that the Sun family had the foundation of Jiangdong, which was basically conquered by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. Therefore, it is beyond doubt that Zhou Yu was the founder of the Eastern Wu Jiye.

Therefore, Zhou Yu was no different from the founding officials for the Eastern Wu. At the same time, when Sun Ce fell, Zhou Yu comforted and coordinated the veterans and asked these veterans to support Sun Quan together. It can be said that Zhou Yu was kind to Jiangdong and Sun Quan. If it weren't for Zhou Yu, Jiangdong would have long become a mess and would have no possibility of unity.

Therefore, Sun Quan also appointed Zhou Yu as the Grand Governor. The two seemed to be very harmonious on the surface, but in fact, Sun Quan did not give Zhou Yu all the military power in his hands...

There is nothing else, just a trade-off.

Many of the original members of Sun Ce who opened up Jiangdong were from Huai and Si areas, and were basically considered to be Huai and Si factions. In Jiangdong, the four Jiangdong families were headed by them, which can be generally called local factions.

Sun Quan wanted to find a balance between these two factions, but it was obvious that this balance was not that easy to find...

Although the entire Government Affairs Department is quiet and quiet now, the quarrels that broke out here before are still colliding in Sun Quan's mind, noisy...

…(╬￣Dish￣)…

"Lord, if you want others to know, don't do it!" Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan angrily. Looking at this guy who acted completely differently from Sun Ce, the irrepressible anger made Zhou Yu no longer want to maintain his superficial respect.

Sun Quan was stunned and then his anger rose: "Zhou Gongjin, you are so brave!" If Sun Quan had not dared to disturb Zhou Yu like this some time ago, but now Sun Quan felt that he had a certain strength, and when he heard Zhou Yu's rude words, he would naturally be very angry.

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment, his eyes were like a knife, which made Sun Quan sweat a little on his back.

"The lord thought that he could harvest the Yue people's farming, which would stabilize the foundation and the four tribes. However, he did not know that it was actually a hidden root of disaster, and sooner or later it would be a downfall!" If Zhou Yu could tolerate other things, then once the Sun family's foundation was involved, Zhou Yu would never stand by. Because for Zhou Yu, the Sun family's foundation was the only mark that Sun Ce left in this world.

The four great masters of Jiangdong have formed a complete structure. The main family is unique as the leader, leading the direction and facing the future. Other side branches and small surnames serve as supplements to assist the main family and move forward together.

So from this perspective, the four Jiangdong families are actually a whole, and marriage is like a bond. Although the four families will have some friction to some extent, the overall goals are still the same.

Sun Quan arrested the Yue people and came to the military camp as slaves. Then the four families did not speak and smiled and accepted the Yue people sent by Sun Quan. However, it did not mean that the four families were sitting in the same chariot as Sun Quan!

"Why do you say this?" Sun Quan was a little stunned, pondered for a while, and then asked directly.

Zhou Yu took a deep breath, calmed down slightly, and whispered: "Lord, this move is like killing a chicken to get an egg, drinking poison to quench thirst, and there will be chaos in the end... The public's grievances are boiling, and the benefits are not halfway, so why bother to do it?"

Sun Quan divided the Yue people, and seemed to have reached a consensus with the four surnames of Jiangdong and advanced and retreated together. However, in fact, Sun Quan suffered all the public anger. On the one hand, the four surnames of Jiangdong said that this was what Sun Quan wanted to do, while smilingly absorbing the Yue people. Then, even though Sun Quan's Yue people's interests accounted for most of the interests, Sun Quan needed a lot of corresponding expenses. So overall, the benefits Sun Quan received may not actually be able to end up with more than the four surnames of Jiangdong.

On the other hand, Yue people are not spring leeks, but people. They always need a time to give birth. It seems good to arrest these Yue people in a short time, but then what? Since the Yue people caught are slaves, it is equivalent to a tool. Then, treating a cheap tool is like a disposable bowl and chopstick, who will cherish it? Therefore, it will inevitably be consumed at an extremely fast speed. Even if Sun Quan gave these slaves a little soup to ensure their survival, the slaves will be quickly damaged and consumed quickly due to the dissatisfaction and resistance of the slaves.

At that time, Sun Quan had to face a dilemma. One was that the cost of arresting Yue people was getting higher and higher. After all, no one was willing to be a slave to others when he was born. Yue people's escape and resistance became inevitable. Secondly, in order to maintain the previously cultivated farmland, Sun Quan would either be forced to convert his original subordinates into slaves, because only slaves could generate high profits, or give up taking care of these understaffed fields or giving up the model of slave farming. No matter which one was, it would have a great shock to Sun Quan's regime...

The four Jiangdong families are fanning the flames while reaping profits.

Sun Quan rushed up to fight and tear up the prey. The four Jiangdong families cheered for both sides from behind, saying that they were fair and just. Then Sun Quan won, and went up to lick Sun Quan's wounds, making Sun Quan feel good and licked some blood to eat. On the other hand, he immediately bite some prey into the water and other things. After all, most of the fat meat still needs to be left for Sun Quan, and he completely forgot that he had added oil to the prey before...

Until one day, Sun Quan fell down with scars, the four Jiangdong families would rush up, biting Sun Quan's body and reiterate that they were on the side of justice, yelling that justice might be late, but they would never be absent from any slogans. They would moisten Sun Quan's body, throw Sun Quan's head to the same scarred prey, or cultivate it into the next Sun Quan...

"Why is this? Why bother?" Zhou Yu explained it little by little to Sun Quan, and then looked at Sun Quan, "The lord is only twenty years old, he just needs to stick to it. In less than ten years, Jiangdong will be like a rock. Why should he do this aggressive move?"

"Brother Gongjin..." After hearing this, Sun Quan was silent for a long time and sighed, "If a certain person has no achievements in ten years... Not to mention ten years, even three years will be broken down! If it is down today, it will be like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat! Fei Cavalry entrenched in Guanzhong, Sichuan, Cao Sikong saw the embezzlement of Jiyou, and Jiangdong, Jingxiang, Liu Jingsheng blocked the road on the left, and Yue people on the right... Brother Gongjin, what can I do if I don't do this urgent plan?"

What Sun Quan said is also heart-to-heart.

Sun Quan is like the president of Sun Family, but in addition to the president, there are also investors from all walks of life, such as Mrs. Wu's brothers, and even veterans like Zhou Yu. If it was Sun Ce, they would have some friendship links in Jiangdong. If Sun Quan, a latecomer, cannot make any strategic profits, he will naturally not think about how long he can sit in this position...

Even if Sun Quan has no brothers, he still has his sons and nephews, and even his relatives of the Wu family are still there!

Therefore, Sun Quan’s sense of crisis is actually very strong.

Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan and finally understood the biggest difference between him and Sun Quan. Zhou Yu valued the Sun family's foundation, while Sun Quan valued his own position. Although the interests and goals of the two people in some places are the same, they are like two different lines, intersecting in a short time, and then heading towards different directions.

Zhou Yu stood up, "The words are over... I hope the lord thinks twice... I will leave..." Zhou Yu had prepared some policies and strategies, but now, Zhou Yu felt that even if he said it, Sun Quan might not be willing to listen. Even if he listened, he would basically not do it, so he was too lazy to talk more.

"..." Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu in silence, then bowed step by step, and stopped talking.

Zhou Yu retreated to the position close to the door, suddenly stopped and turned around and walked back.

Sun Quan couldn't help but smile: "Brother Gongjin..."

"Lord," Zhou Yu bowed, "The matter of Huang's crossbow... The lord needs to deal with one or two more..."

Sun Quan:(￣号￣)

"I'm leaving..." Zhou Yu withdrew his gaze, lowered his head, and said goodbye again.

…(≧Д≦)ノ…

When Sun Quan recalled the previous scene again, he realized that Zhou Yu's last sentence was not really the relevant evidence Zhou Yu found, but obtained evidence from Sun Quan's reaction.

After falling into Zhou Yu's plan again, Sun Quan felt helpless and a little embarrassed.

After all, Sun Quan himself knew that there was still some intellectual gap between him and Zhou Yu.

However, this cannot change Sun Quan's original strategy.

Sun Quan put down the pen in his hand and rubbed his slightly sore wrist.

Jiangdong has gradually developed to a bottleneck since Sun Ce and now Sun Quan takes over.

Towards the east, there is a vast ocean. Although Sun Quan also heard that the four Jiangdong companies had some shipbuilding technologies, they belonged to the four Jiangdong companies after all, and the sea was unpredictable, which ensured that there would be profits?

Towards the south, I won’t talk about the mountain and the Yue. The dense forests that have been growing for thousands of years alone are enough to give Sun Quan a headache. Before the Han Dynasty entered the Little Ice Age, the area of ​​Nanyue was similar to a tropical rainforest...

Even if you set fire to the fields, you have to get close to the water source to transform them into arable land. Therefore, the cost of developing southward is very high and there is no guarantee of profit.

The only two choices are either toward north or west.

Towards north is Cao Cao, towards west is Liu Biao. For Jiangdong, the desire towards west, or strategic demand, is obviously greater than towards north. After all, the river flows eastward, and the original natural danger can be ignored in front of Jingzhou. Jingzhou, located in the upper reaches, can attack along the current, while Jiangdong can only go up against the current...

If it can disrupt the west and north, Sun Quan will naturally have the opportunity to take advantage of the chaos.

Under such a grand strategic idea, Sun Quan certainly hopes that all the guys in the Central Plains will be ganged up and then he can reap the benefits calmly. Just like the empire in history, the reputation of the mainland shit stirring stick is not a false reputation. Sun Quan did not know what the mainland shit stirring stick is, but it did not prevent Sun Quan from trying to create conflicts between Fei Qian, Cao Cao, and Liu Biao, hoping to achieve the intended goals.

However, why did Fei Qian, Cao Cao and Liu Biao, who were located in the Central Plains, have no movement? Could it be that they were discovered? It is not that the ones sent were all dead soldiers raised by the Sun family for many years, and they must not be disclosed at all...

Maybe, wait a little longer?

Sun Quan turned his head and took off the long sword hanging from the sword frame behind him. He gently pulled it out under the oil lamp, and a cold light filled the air.

This was originally a sword from his brother Sun Ce, but later Sun Ce gave it to him.

The long sword is three feet three, three wide, three fingers wide, with blades on both sides, and blood grooves are opened in the middle. The steel pattern on the sword body is more and more shining under the oil lamp. The sword body swallows the mouth with a yakuzi, with dog teeth up and down, and round eyes glaring. The hilt of the sword is wrapped with thin hemp rope mixed with leather to ensure the feeling of holding it, and not being too slippery because of blood stains.

Sun Quan first pointed the sword at the oil lamp, then saw the tip of the sword bit by bit from the bottom to see if there was rust. Then he took a piece of brocade, thinly, little by little, and wiped up along the sword body...

I have climbed to this position and felt more and more how valuable the authority is. How could I give up easily?

Faces or something are just clouds.

Different personal positions will naturally feel different.

For Zhou Yu, what he wanted to protect was Sun Ce's foundation. As for Sun Quan, he was just the guardian of the foundation under this premise. For Sun Quan, although he also thought about the foundation of the Sun family, it was the Sun family's foundation under Sun Quan's own control.

Therefore, Sun Quan felt that what he did was not the most correct method at the moment?

Why no one can understand him?

"I was fucked by the rhinoceros armor, the car was flanked by the hub, and the soldiers were caught in the short hand. The flags were blocking the sun, and the enemy was like clouds, and the arrows were falling, and the soldiers were fighting for the first place..." Sun Quan murmured softly, "The sky was coming, and the thunder and trenched, and they killed the enemy and fought in the wild. I walked out of Wu County and did not rebel. I occupied the Yangtze River and entered the Central Plains. I carried a long sword and held the Wu hook, and chased the lost deer and settled the nine heavens..."
