Chapter 355 Sun Quan: I want to fight Hefei
"You... are you crazy? Don't you know that the current national policy of the court is to let them go for the time being. First, use their tribute to make a plan to exhaust the enemy? Zilong, as a general with a heavy title, why are you so confused? Can't you even see such a simple thing?"
"I know."
"You...you know? Then why are you..."
"What's wrong with me? I didn't attack our King of Wu for no reason. Li Shu and I don't know each other without fighting each other. Isn't it okay to have a relationship? As the general of Zhendong, I have the power to govern the army in the East District. Since Lujiang is under my rule, why can't I mobilize Li Shu and his troops?"
"I have given Li Shu the order, and ordered him to bring troops and food from Lujiang to Hefei to join me. At the same time, Zang Ba was appointed as the commander of Lujiang County and the memorial to express his as the prefect of Lujiang has also been sent to Xudu. He should have taken office now."
Seeing that Zhong Ji was stunned, as if he was about to be angry, and a little confused, Zhao Yun smiled and said, "I will certainly not attack our king of different surnames, but if he dares to attack me on his own initiative, then naturally I can't blame me for fighting back."
Zhong Ji felt that his blood pressure was high for a moment, and he was speechless, so he could only say, "I heard that Duke Wei has now proposed a 100,000 army to attack the Xianbei. Our Han might have to fight against the Xianbei at any time. The reason why Sun Quan dared to fight Li Shu at this time was because the court had no time to look south in the north. You were provoking disputes without authorization at this time just to make a mere county in Lujiang. Is this appropriate? Sun Quan has a 100,000 army! Who will help you reinforce?"
Zhao Yun smiled disdainfully and said, "How did he come to his so-called 100,000 army come from? There are many factions inside, and the commander is in a hurry to send troops. The commander has no power. Not to mention 100,000 such an army, even 200,000 and 300,000 are just a mob. If he dares to come, I will destroy it. The ten thousand people in his hand are enough. I don't need to recruit troops, so where do I need reinforcements?"
Zhong Ji was speechless, opened his mouth and wanted to scold Zhao Yun for a few more words, but he thought that this person was already a general of the heavy number, so he could only sigh helplessly and shake his head and walk away.
It is not surprising that Li Shu surrendered. He could not defeat Zhao Yun at first. Now Sun Quan has raised 100,000 troops to attack him, but he can't defeat him. Even if he can beat him, he can't survive in the future. Sun Ce has to kill him first when he comes back. In addition to surrendering to Zhao Yun, there is a way out.
But for Zhong Ji, it's so annoying!!
To put it bluntly, the conflict between him and Zhao Yun was a bit similar to Han Xin and Li Shiqi back then. He was a civil servant. With his immense tongue, he not only successfully allowed Sun Quan to accept the title and hand over the tribute, but also successfully provoked the civil strife in Jiangdong. You must know that Sun Quan attacked Li Shu, the court must be happy to death. This Li Shu can be said to be the number one figure in Sun Ce's direct line, and even surpassed Zhou Yu, with a far higher status than Lu Fan.
(Li Shu is the first foreign surname to become a prefect, Zhou Yu is the second, and Zhou Yu's Jiangxia prefect is really not as good as the prefect of Lujiang. Jiangxia is the poorest county in Jingzhou, Lujiang is the richest county in Yangzhou, and its geographical location is more important. However, this person was killed by Sun Quan in history, with almost zero records. Sun Quan also lost the two counties of Lujiang and Jiujiang. At that time, Li Shu had already taken down Jiujiang.)
So Zhong Ji had already thought about it on his way back. He successfully provoked the internal struggle of the Sun family, causing both to lose money and get back a large amount of tribute. Even if he is now the third prince, he has no chance of promotion, and he must at least increase his fief, right?
As a result, Zhao Yun made this happen, he probably had to give half of the credit.
Of course, Zhao Yun did this not to rob merit with the Chinese people. The conflict between them was not just about merit. The generals were eager to fight every day. He had so many big-headed soldiers following him, waiting for when to break through Qu'a and take Sun Quan's dog head to make a contribution. As a result, the court suddenly told him that he would not fight anymore?
Then there is a meaning of his guardianship of Hefei.
It doesn't matter to him. He is already a general with a heavy title and will never have any chance of promotion within ten years, but the soldiers under his command are not good.
To say something heart-wrenching, although Zhao Yun could see the cleverness of the Emperor's slow bloodletting move, he really hoped that this matter would not be settled, and that Zhong Ji would be killed by Sun Quan.
As for whether there will be trouble doing this...that's Lujiang! Lujiang, which shares fat water with Jiujiang County, is the Huaihe River waterway!
Of course, Sun Quan received the news that Zhao Yun took in Li Shu and transferred Zang Ba to defend Lujiang now, but it really made him so angry.
Li Shu was disrespectful to him and took in people who opposed Sun Quan. To put it bluntly, these were all excuses.
He wanted to fight Lujiang just to divert the conflict, mainly to establish his authority. At this moment, Zhao Yun actually told him not to fight?
Have fun!
If he came back in shame and didn't dare to beat him, he would still be a powerful figure and be the Lord of Jiangdong!
"Lord, this...Lujiang, are we still fighting?"
"beat."
"I'm still fighting Lujiang. What if Zhao Yun cuts off our retreat..."
"I won't fight against Lujiang anymore, I'll fight against Hefei!"
"Ah? Lord, Zhao Yun is the important general of the Han Dynasty!"
"I'm just a heavy general! I want the court to see it. Sun Quan is not a mud. I want to let the ministers in Jiangdong see it. Hefei, which the elder brother can't beat, I'll fight!"
Sun Quan was really anxious. After all, he went back in such a shame, so he, the King of Wu, wouldn't have to do it. It would be better to surrender to the court directly.
Anyway, he now has a 100,000 army, and Jiangdong's family is in his hands. On the other hand, Zhao Yun has sent Zang Ba to occupy Lujiang. In other words, he has no soldiers in his hands for the time being. It is obviously too late to go to conquer the enemy now. The court is fighting against the Xianbei, and I think there is no soldiers to support Zhao Yun.
There is a high probability that Zhao Yun only has more than 10,000 people in his hands, and he will be afraid of being beaten by ten people!
He had thought about it and used the banner of asking Li Shu to show his political attitude. If Zhao Yun knew the tact, he would send Li Shu out to me. If he didn't know the tact, he would break your Hefei City and occupy the Huaihe River waterway. At that time, your court wants to continue to sign me a king, but I don't want to pay you a tribute.
