Chaos of the Three Kingdoms Summons

Chapter 959 Steady Old Zhu
For Sima Yi to vote for this event, Concubine Yu was both surprised and delighted.What surprised her was that she knew exactly what kind of person Sima Yi was, and this kind of person was hard to control.

I am also happy that Sima Yi has taken refuge in him. Although the other party is indeed difficult to control, it is undeniable that this is a real talent, and they happen to be very short of such a talent.

The Xiang clan is about the same in terms of generals, but it is not satisfactory in terms of the number of civil servants.

Next is the situation in Yuzhou. Sun Wu's plan is really good. Because of the geographical location, the Yellow Turban, who finally got the chance, is bound to win the land of Lu County.

But given Sun Ce's current situation, he was indeed incapable of defending Lu County.Of course, at this time, it is absolutely impossible to provoke another prince.

Just as Sun Wu expected, the Yellow Turban was unwilling to see the strength of his old rival Cao Cao expand.Zhang Dingbian didn't mind doing Sun Ce a small favor as long as he could get Lu County, but he also wanted to trouble Cao Cao, his old opponent.

However, in the case of Chi You sending troops to Qingzhou, and the territory has already been obtained, the strength of this support is naturally limited.Although he took advantage, Zhang Dingbian would not really fight Cao Cao to the death for a Sun Ce.

Cao Cao felt a certain pressure and did not dare to go all out to deal with Sun Ce. Zhang Dingbian thought that he was worthy of this transaction.

At the same time, on the frontal battlefield, Sun Wu used Sun Ce to cheat his death and wanted to count Cao Cao.It's just that Cao Cao was suspicious by nature, and his counselors such as Xun You, Cheng Yu, and Chen Gong were not vegetarians, and successively used small groups of troops to lure out Sun Wu's followers.Although it was a small defeat, fortunately the loss was not too great.

Next, Sun Wu won a few games again. Although the gains were not many, it also boosted the morale of the army and wiped away the depression of the previous consecutive defeats.

And it was precisely because of these small defeats that Cao Cao understood that if it comes to the art of war that he has been quite proud of since then, he really seems to be no match for Sun Wu.

Fortunately, although Cao Cao has many shortcomings, his advantages are also obvious. One of his advantages is a good mentality.Since he can't beat the opponent in the art of war, Cao Cao will not use his own weaknesses to attack the enemy's strengths.

Since he was not the opponent's opponent in the art of war from the front, Cao Cao was lucky to seek a breakthrough from the flank.He personally led the army to confront Sun Wu head-on, while Tian Ji and Cao Ren looked for fighters from their respective flanks.No matter how strong Sun Wu is, it is impossible for him to have the technique of doppelganger.In the three battlefields, as long as one of them can't stand it, Sun's life will be difficult in the future.

In Yongzhou, Li Xiang carefully checked this sealed report, which wrote about the recent major events happening all over the world.If it was not a major event, these things would not have been passed on to Li Xiang.

This is already a habit of Li Xiang, he must know the important things happening all over the world in the shortest possible time.Only in this way can we grasp the pulse of the world and make reasonable decisions about the future according to the actual situation.

"Tell Jing Lue that you don't need to rush to intervene first, but send an imperial decree to warn both parties first!" Li Xiang thought for a moment, then ordered to the people below.

Sun Ce ordered people to come to the court to ask for help, but the current court is not making the decision of Han Xiandi Liu Xie, but Jin Wang Li Xiang.Therefore, Wang Meng ordered someone to report the matter quickly, and asked Li Xiang about his decision by the way.

To be honest, Li Xiang is not planning to intervene in this matter for the time being, the Sun family is not so easy to be beaten down.Let them continue the fight first, whether or not to intervene in the end depends on how the situation develops next!

What's more, the current Li Xiang represents the imperial court after all, so it's not good to blatantly sideline it.In this matter, anyone with a clear heart can see that Sun Ce was tricked by Cao Cao, which made Cao Cao find a reason to send troops.

But if you can see it, you can see it, it is useless without evidence, and you can only blame Sun Ce for being inferior to others.

No matter how much bitterness and resentment there is behind this matter, Sun Ce has to swallow it himself!

Let’s take an inappropriate example. In the Three Kingdoms, the matter between Cao Cao’s father and Xuzhou, regardless of whether Tao Qian did it himself, but since he was caught by Cao Cao for a reason to beat him, it can only be blamed. He has done it himself, and he can only bear the blame on himself, so it's no wonder others.

As for the so-called exhortation from the imperial decree, it is only a formality on the surface.He Li Xiang didn't even have that face, he casually asked Han Xiandi to write an imperial decree, then Cao Mengde was willing to lead the army back obediently, giving up this opportunity of hard planning.

However, Li Xiang really admired Sun Wu and Sun Ce this time. Although less than half of the population moved away, after all, Sun Ce only had such a small territory, and he gave up the territory of a county.

Of course, although this method is a helpless move, it is also a wise move.First of all, Sun Ce couldn't divide his troops to defend Lu County.In other words, even if he didn't give up Lu County as an exchange, the place would basically be lost.

Secondly, turning against another enemy will only make Sun Ce's current situation worse.In doing so, at least you can do your best to hold on to the remaining territory.

Even, if Li Xiang was in Sun Ce's position, he might temporarily succumb to Yuan Shu at this time to improve the relationship between the two parties.

If you don't want to be able to pull back a support soldier, you must at least stabilize Yuan Shu first and release that part of the force.If it wasn't for Xian Zhen's constant threat, why would Sun Wu have to fight so hard.

"Let's fight, let's fight, the more intense the better!" Li Xiang looked up at the starry sky and muttered to himself.

For Li Xiang, the more aggressive the fight, the better.The more intense the fight, the better for him.

Today, Yuzhou has become one, but Jingzhou is still brewing, and this powder keg will not be stable for long.

Leaving aside the Xiang clan that has been gaining momentum, Zhu Yuanzhang of Yangzhou has almost digested Hong Xiuquan's power at this time, and has already begun to look for the next target.

In recent years, although Lao Zhu was one of the earliest princes born, he acted quite steadily.The weaker family annexed the population of Shanyue bit by bit, until the foundation was completely solidified, and then they won the piece of meat that Hong Xiuquan had been putting on their lips for many years.

Among the princes of the world, if anyone has the most solid foundation, Lao Zhu is definitely the first choice that deserves it.On this point, Li Xiang also expressed that he was ashamed.

Among the southern princes, apart from Yizhou, which is isolated from the world, Zhu Yuanzhang's strength is definitely the strongest.Although talents are important, it is a dream to think that having talents can overwhelm everything.Xiang Yu is the most powerful, and Jingbei's generals have the advantage in numbers, but if a hundred thousand soldiers pass, you will have to run if you want to.
