Chapter 352: The Peace Talk
Xu Shu smiled and said, "Of course, how dare I deceive the governor!"
Lu Xun smiled and said, "Then, please tell me directly! What conditions did Cao's army have given?"
Lu Xun did not regard Xu Shu as a person from Cao's army.
In his opinion, Xu Shu was just a famous scholar, so he came to be a lobbyist for Cao's army.
This kind of thing happens from time to time in the camp of scholars.
"It's nothing, it's just that I hope the Grand Governor will take your soldiers back to the river to return to the outer city of Jingzhou." Xu Shu said with a smile.
When Lu Xun heard this, his brows frowned, "Return? If we pursue the historical origin, there is a piece of Jiangdong in Jingzhou. Cao's army has been stole for a long time. Let's take it back, what should we return it?"
When Xu Shu heard this, he heard that there was a smell of gunpowder in his words, but whoever he was naturally not allowed to develop under such circumstances.
"Grandmaster, the situation is stronger than that of others. You don't know this principle? As far as I know, your return is broken now and you have met a strong enemy again. I'm afraid it's a big deal!" Xu Shu said with a smile.
Lu Xun frowned. Sure enough, the other party had taken his seven orifices accurately, so he came to negotiate without fear.
If he were a general-purpose man, he would definitely have killed Xu Shu on the spot.
Unfortunately, he is a Confucian general and he is proud of his reason.
"Haha, you are really smart!"
Xu Shu had already heard that Lu Xun had a meaning of compromise, so he hurriedly shot while the iron was hot.
"Grandmaster, if you believe me, I can talk to Zhang Liao for you, talk to Yu Jin, let the way open up and let you go back, and buy you some gold and silver."
Lu Xun sneered at this.
At their level, do you still care about that little money?
Xu Shu's words were like sending beggars, asking them to withdraw from the city to give them some compensation. If there is such a simple and cheap thing, there is no need to fight any more wars in the world.
"Mr. Xu, if you weren't here to negotiate today, I will be yours and then fight to the death with Cao's army!"
Lu Xun's words made Xu Shu stunned.
Unexpectedly, this elegant guy was so full of energy.
"Haha, then I will thank the Grand Commander more for not killing me!" Xu Shu said with a wry smile.
After the matter was concluded, the two sides agreed to meet in Wancheng outside Jingzhou.
Xu Shu went back and told Yu Jin. Yu Jin naturally wanted to be the result, so he immediately sent someone to notify Cai Mao in the city.
When Cai Mao heard this, the Jiangdong Army could actually retreat through peace talks.
The simplicity of the matter was completely beyond his expectations, and it was his wish that he could solve the problem without fighting.
So he hurriedly reported to Cao Ang and asked Cao Ang to give instructing him.
Cao Ang had restored his dominance at this time, and Jingzhou City was back in his control.
Because of his humble origin, Cao Ang maintained a humble temperament from beginning to end.
The same is true this time. The misunderstanding has been resolved and he has no intention of settle the score later.
"Now, the King of Wei has not returned from Xichuan. Since the chaos in Jiangdong can be resolved through Yihe negotiations, I think there is no need to take any war." Cao Ang gave such instructions on this matter.
When Cai Mao heard this, he immediately bowed, "Young Master is wise. He is not only a peace negotiation, but also a person who asks you to decide and participate in the negotiation."
Cao Ang said casually: "Anyway, you, Gan Ning, Yu Jin are going to go, you can decide for the others yourself!"
"No!" Cai Mao took the order and left.
...
When the news came back to Jiangdong, Sun Quan could only accept this fact.
Regarding the details of the negotiations, he called Lu Su to discuss.
"It seems that I am still too naive. Not only did I not take it back this week, but I was losing my troops and generals. I am afraid I will become a joke!" Sun Quan said with a wry smile.
Lu Su, who was standing beside him, did not dare to answer the conversation.
Because he knew that Sun Quan had been criticized by many civil and military officials in recent years.
What he said killed Zhou Yu, and Jiangdong's energy was exhausted.
Some people also say that Sun Quan is a child, so where is the domineering spirit?
Without Zhou Yu's protection, the land of Jiangdong will sooner or later fall into Cao Cao's hands.
These words can be heard occasionally in the palace, and it may be even more rumored among the people.
"Lord, let your duties be withheld by fate. Victory and defeat are common in military affairs, not someone's fault!" Lu Su could only comfort him.
Sun Quan waved his hand and said, "Okay, Zijing, you don't have to comfort me anymore. Or do you think you should do this peace talk?"
Lu Su bowed and said, "I think that peace talks must be negotiated, but letting Lu Xun and others talk like this will only lose face and the city."
Sun Quan nodded and asked, "Now the enemy has occupied a strong position, this peace talk is naturally unfavorable for us.
But according to your opinion, is there any chance of turning around?"
Lu Su laughed and said, "Of course, there is. After the peace talks are over, I am afraid that there will be no more wars in the past few years.
And during this period, Cao's army's strength will become stronger and stronger. Is the lord willing to sit back and ignore it?"
"Of course I don't want to, but what can I do?" Sun Quan said with his fists tightly.
Lu Su said: "There is a strategy below to ask the lord to lead troops across the river now and form a counter-encirclement of Zhang Liao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry Battalion.
In this way we can regain the right to negotiate again!”
After hearing Lu Su's plan, Sun Quan's brows stretched out.
"Okay! Zijing, your plan is really wonderful."
Sun Quan still has the determination to cross the river and compete for power again.
So, he immediately mobilized the troops from Jiangdong.
After Sun Quan eliminated Zhou Yu, he gradually operated in Jiangdong and already had his own power network.
He promoted and reused a group of young military generals, such as Ling Tong, Chen Wu, Ding Feng, Xu Sheng and others.
These young generals formed a young and powerful faction in the army.
At the same time, Sun Quan used the method of establishing spiritual worship to make these young and strong parties respect themselves extremely.
It can be said that in just one word from Sun Quan, these people dared nothing.
Although Lu Xun was the Grand Commander-in-Chief, he was humble and easy-going, and was also a famous Confucian general.
Mingzhe Baosheng is very clear that he only does his own duties and dare not overcome them at all.
But because of his cautiousness, he knows how to advance and retreat.
In the position of the Grand Commander, he is the most stable and safest person to sit.
Because he knew he couldn't control the young and strong sects who were crazy about Sun Quan.
As for veterans such as Han Dang, Zu Mao, and Cheng Pu, although they have outstanding achievements, they are quite famous in the army.
I also know that there are talents in the world and people have their own principles. I should rest when I get old.
What's more, with Zhou Yu's past lessons, who dares to jump out if he doesn't have any eyes?
