Three Kingdoms: Heir of Wolong, my father-in-law is Guan Gong

Chapter 113: The plan to seize the crown, Sun Quan joins forces with Cao Pi (Pursuit)

I was worried that there was no suitable person who could replace Lukou, so this person came.

As soon as he arrived in Jianye, Lu Meng was summoned by Sun Quan.

Hear the words.

Lu Meng didn't care that the boat was tired and hurriedly came to see Sun Quan.

Fuzhong.

Sun Quan, a man with short beard and tiger eyes, is sitting upright.

His long career as a leader allowed Sun Quan to develop a certain aura of calmness and self-reliance.

As the Lord of Jiangdong.

When it comes to recruiting people from Jiangdong, deciding between the two Chens, and competing with the world, Sun Quan is far inferior to Sun Ce; when it comes to recruiting talents and appointing capable people, everyone does their best to protect Jiangdong, Sun Quan is far better than Sun Ce.

Although he was frustrated by Zhang Liao in Hefei, Sun Quan was determined to surpass his brother Sun Ce.

In order to fulfill his ambition, Jiangdong used military power and called Sun Quan "Supreme" internally.

In the Han Dynasty, the supreme person often referred to the emperor.

Although the Han Dynasty declined, both Cao Cao and Liu Bei now recognize the Han Dynasty.

Sun Quan obviously did not dare to proclaim himself emperor, but playing word games with "Supreme" would not be considered as arrogance.

"Last of all, Lü Meng, pay homage to the Supreme One!" Lü Meng bowed very respectfully.

The king is a king, and the ministers are ministers. Sun Quan is very concerned about the superiority and inferiority among them; even Lu Meng did not dare to go beyond the rules in the slightest.

"Ziming, if you go back to Jianye to recuperate, who can take command at Lukou for you?" Sun Quan said in a cold tone.

It was as if he didn't see Lu Meng's withered and sick body, and was only concerned about whether the plan to sneak attack Jingzhou could be implemented smoothly.

Lu Meng's tone was more respectful: "Lu Xun, the governor of the right department, has far-reaching thoughts and is capable of shouldering heavy responsibilities."

"When I passed through Wuhu, Lu Xun took the initiative to see me, hoping that I could persuade the Supreme Being to seize Jingzhou while Guan Yu had not returned from sending troops."

"Lu Xun has far-sightedness and the ability to lead troops, but his reputation is not great. If Lu Xun is appointed as the governor of Lukou, Guan Yu will definitely look down upon him."

Sun Quan had the intention of training Lu Xun. Not only did he let Lu Xun marry Sun Ce's daughter, he also let Lu Xun command his own soldiers.

Seeing that Lu Meng strongly recommended Lu Xun, Sun Quan agreed to Lu Meng's proposal: "In that case, I will promote Lu Xun to the position of partial general and stationed at Lukou."

After finalizing the candidate for the governor of Lukou, Sun Quan mentioned Cao Pi's envoy: "Cao Pi, the Crown Prince of Wei, sent people to Jiangdong a few days ago."

"I hope Jiangdong can send troops to attack Jingzhou and cut off Guan Yu's retreat. If this happens, the land south of the Yangtze River will be granted."

"To show his sincerity, Cao Pi will send troops to Wancheng, and at the same time withdraw Zhang Liao from Hefei to reinforce Fancheng to put pressure on Guan Yu."

When Zhang Liao's name was mentioned, Sun Quan's tone obviously changed.

After fighting in Huainan for so many years, Sun Quan still failed to avenge Xiaoyaojin, which made Sun Quan quite angry.

When he heard from Cao Pi's envoy that Zhang Liao would leave Hefei, Sun Quan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

The pressure on Hefei was greatly reduced, and Sun Quan became more enthusiastic about his plan to capture Jingzhou.

Lu Meng was surprised: "When I left Lukou, I never heard that Cao Pi sent troops to Wancheng."

"If this happens, the pressure on Guan Yu's front line will definitely increase."

"Now that I have returned to Jianye claiming to be ill, I expect that Guan Yu will definitely dispatch the Nanjun garrison to Fancheng."

Sun Quan said: "There is no lie in this matter! There are also spies reporting from the front line. Cao Pi entered Wancheng and sent Xu Huang to attack Fancheng."

Lu Mengshao's bloody face also turned rosy at this moment: "Supreme, this is a rare opportunity! This is God's help for the Supreme to take over Jingzhou! Please don't have any doubts!"

Lu Meng spoke in a hurry, and inadvertently drew his heart, and couldn't help coughing. Sun Quan couldn't help but frowned: "With your current body, can you still lead the army? Why don't you let Sun Jiao take over for you, and you stay behind to command."

Lu Meng suppressed his cough and cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I just caught a cold on the road and I will be fine for a few days."

Sun Quan pondered for a moment and then said slowly: "The last time we captured three counties, we already made Liu Bei very angry."

"If he still fails to succeed this time, Liu Bei will definitely station heavy troops in Jingzhou to guard against it."

"."

Before Sun Quan could finish speaking, Lu Meng clasped his fists and shouted: "Your Majesty, no one among the generals in Jiangdong knows Jingzhou better than me!"

"Although I am sick, I still have the spirit of winning Jingzhou! If I cannot win Jingzhou, I will raise my head to see the Supreme Being."

Sun Quan couldn't help but frown.

Sun Quan was quite unhappy when he heard Lu Meng's words.

Although Sun Quan valued and trusted Lü Meng, capturing Jingzhou involved a lot, and Sun Quan did not want to rely on outsiders.

Sun Jiao is Sun Quan's cousin.

If Sun Jiao captured Jingzhou, it would be equivalent to Sun Quan capturing Jingzhou.

When the whole world knew that "Sun Quan was strategizing in Jianye and made his cousin Sun Jiao secretly seize Jingzhou and become the king of Jiangnan", no one remembered Sun Quan's shame in Xiaoyaojin.

If Lü Meng captured Jingzhou, people in the world would only think that Lü Meng achieved great fame by capturing Jingzhou and capturing Guan Yu.

Just like when Zhou Yu retreated from Cao Cao's army at Chibi in the past, his feather fans and turbans, and his oars and oars were destroyed by ashes while talking and laughing, but they still retain their power today.

When it came to using troops at Chibi, Sun Quan was the master of Jiangdong, but the people in the world praised Zhou Yu for his retreat from Cao's troops, not Sun Quan's retreat from Cao's troops.

In the battle of Xiaoyaojin, the world only remembers that Sun Quan was unable to defeat even one of Cao Cao's subordinate generals, and even more so when 800 dead soldiers broke into the middle army, beheaded the generals and captured the flag!
  If Lü Meng succeeds in capturing Jingzhou again, and the world praises Lü Meng's majesty, then Sun Quan's impression of "ignoring soldiers" will be fixed.

For Sun Quan, having great achievements and overshadowing his master is the most taboo thing!
  If Lü Meng hadn't always been loyal, and Sun Jiao was not as good as Lü Meng, Sun Quan would have wanted to kick Lü Meng away, and then say, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

After carefully considering the pros and cons, Sun Quan finally relaxed: "Yu Zhongxiang is quite knowledgeable in medical science. Zi Ming can recuperate first and wait until the time is right before making any calculations."

Lu Meng secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

If Sun Quan really wanted Sun Jiao to implement this plan, Lu Meng would rather be killed.

In order to seize Jingzhou, Lu Meng did not hesitate to use self-harm to confuse Guan Yu. Now that the time is coming, how can he give up this great achievement to others?

After chatting for a while, Lu Meng excused himself and left.

Looking at Lu Meng's leaving figure, a chill flashed through Sun Quan's cold eyes: "Zhou Yu is like this, Lu Zijing is like this, and so are you."

"This Jiangdong is Sun's Jiangdong!"

"Why do you all want to monopolize great achievements and enjoy prestige?"

"Why can't you be like Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, who only show bravery and good fighting skills without being greedy for merit?"

"If Wei Huo is greedy for merit, how can the reputation of Emperor Wu remain in the world?"

"The credit cannot be overshadowed by the main work. I don't even understand this. After reading so many books, I am still the same Wu Xia Amon!"

Taking a deep breath, the coldness in Sun Quan's eyes gradually disappeared: "That's all, let's try our best after we capture Jingzhou."

Sun Quan summoned his confidants and said in a cold tone: "Tell Cao Pi's envoy that I have agreed to his terms."

"But whether Guhui will go to Jingzhou depends on whether Cao Pi has the ability to ask Guan Yu to dispatch troops from Nanjun."

"If Cao Pi doesn't have that ability, don't blame Gu for taking advantage of the opportunity to rob Hefei!"
