The two armies were fighting, arrayed in front of the formation,
Because Hu Zhen took the initiative to attack this time, although Sun Quan was in his own base camp, he was actually very close to the front line, and he was able to observe the battle situation on the front line.
Sun Quan has been waiting for this moment since the first day he entered the military camp. These days, Sun Quan has saved all three skills every day until the end. The enemy may attack at any time. Once attacked, one skill may not be able to do anything at all. It won't be enough. Therefore, Sun Quan has not used skills randomly for a long time.
How could Sun Quan not use it in the first battle?
In most wars, except for surprise attacks and overwhelming devastation, both sides will often choose to test at the beginning rather than directly fight to the death. Therefore, this gave Sun Quan great convenience, because Hu Zhen's tentative attack could end within an hour. In less than an hour, Hu Zhen would retreat, and the result of this tentative attack was a draw.
Jiangdong Army did not have an absolute advantage. Although Hu Zhen took the initiative to retreat, he did so in an orderly manner and Sun Jian and others did not seize the opportunity. The battle ended with hundreds of soldiers on both sides dead.
Foreseeing such an outcome, Sun Quan withdrew from the "Let Me Think Again" skill and began to think about whether he needed to interfere with this tentative war.
First of all, Sun Quan felt that this test was completely meaningless. There was no winner or loser. What was the use of so many soldiers dying in vain? Anyway, Sun Quan can "load and save files" infinitely. Before each battle, he will simulate it. He will stay behind closed doors in draws and losses. When he wins, he will beat the opponent until he can't get up. In this way, It’s basically to become invincible in advance!
What? You said you chose to stay behind closed doors, but the other party still continued to attack? Just kidding, in this era, can we really attack a city easily without having ten times more troops? Give Hu Zhen a hundred courages, but he wouldn't dare, otherwise there wouldn't be so many generals calling for battle before the war (the setting of this book is closer to a novel).
Therefore, from this perspective, Sun Quan had every reason to prevent Sun Jian from starting a war to avoid unnecessary damage.
Secondly, this is the first time that Sun Quan uses skills to simulate war. It is very necessary for Sun Quan to determine in advance how effective his words will be. It's okay if it's a draw this time. Just imagine, if there is a defeat in the future, Sun Quan thinks he can perfectly avoid it, but he tells Sun Jian not to fight, but Sun Quan chooses not to listen. What should he do?
There is no reason for Sun Quan to put this kind of risk into the future. Therefore, from this perspective, it is actually very necessary for Sun Quan to stop Sun Jian. Even if he fails, Sun Quan will at least not lose in this draw.
Thinking of this, Sun Quan immediately took up his pen, considered the wording, and wrote a battlefield letter to Sun Jian.
Of course, Sun Quan would not directly say that this battle cannot be fought. Failure to do so would shake the morale of the army and make it difficult for Sun Jian to understand. After all, his Jiangdong Army is a powerful force no matter how you look at it. Besides, there is no battle that Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian would not dare to fight. call taxi? Therefore, Sun Quan cited the principle of Cao Hui's argument that he was full of energy, then weakened, and exhausted three times. He hoped that Sun Jian would not fight first and deplete the morale of the opponent.
Sun Quan believed that given Sun Jian's superstition towards him, he suddenly wrote such a letter, and with the mentality of preferring to believe what he said rather than what he didn't, Sun Jian might still listen to it.
After asking someone to deliver the letter as quickly as possible, Sun Quan immediately used the "Let me think twice" skill for the second time today before the soldiers left Sun Quan's tent. There was no way, Sun Quan had no choice but to be careless in influencing the situation of the war this time. Who knew what consequences his letter would lead to. If by some mistake, the war that was supposed to be a draw was lost, how would Sun Quan explain to his family?
One second later,
Sun Quan withdrew from the second "Let me think twice" skill and immediately stopped the soldiers who were about to go out to deliver the message. In the confusion of the soldiers, Sun Quan took back the letter he had just written, drove away the soldiers, and burned it directly.
At this moment, Sun Quan's expression was solemn and his brows were furrowed. It's not that the letter he had just written would really make the situation worse, but in the second thought, Sun Jian did not choose to listen to Sun Quan, but continued to take the lead. The soldiers fought with Hu Zhen, which made Sun Quan realize his powerlessness for the first time. It's not that Sun Jian doesn't trust Sun Quan, nor is he distrustful of Sun Quan. Sun Jian often listens to Sun Quan on all kinds of big and small matters, but it's different on the battlefield!
The Jiangdong Tigers have absolute confidence on the battlefield! He believes in his own judgment and his own strength! If Sun Jian is really shaken because of Sun Quan's simple words, it means that he no longer has confidence in this war, and the Jiangdong Tigers will no longer exist!
In the short term, listening to Sun Quan's words may be effective in one or two wars, but what about the long term? As a leader, Sun Jian has lost his original vigor. Will the feared Jiangdong Army still have the same cohesion as before? Will there still be the same fighting power as before? The reason why the Jiangdong Army is so fierce is that Sun Jian always takes the lead and rushes to the front. With this as an example, the soldiers naturally have high morale and are not afraid of anything. At this point, Sun Ce completely succeeded Sun Jian. That's why Sun Jiancai has always been unswerving in wanting Sun Ce to take over. For military strategists, military strength is everything, and politics can only be regarded as auxiliary.
Regarding the above, Sun Quan may not have fully thought it through now, but Sun Quan is at least sure that Sun Jian did not listen to him this time. In this case, what's the point of sending this letter? Not only will it not have any effect, it may also affect the relationship between father and son, and even cause uncertainty in Sun Jian's psychology.
Burn the letter, and no one will know what Sun Quan wrote that day. Even if the soldier just told the story, others would only think that this was Sun Quan's first appearance on the battlefield, and they were just worried about his father and brother.
Since then,
Sun Quan could no longer face the future with a relaxed attitude. How to make his father Sun Jian believe in him and obey his own judgment on the battlefield will be Sun Quan's top priority for a long time. Otherwise, Sun Quan would have no role at all on the battlefield, and he would not even be able to stop the "original history"!
this day,
When Sun Jian and his party returned from the war, Sun Quan came to the main camp and said something to Sun Jian:
"Dad, I also want to lead troops to fight!"
One word shocked everyone.
All present were Sun Jian's confidants, including Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Zu Mao and others, and they were discussing how to fight the next battle. Sun Quan and Sun Jian didn't say anything, and it was hard for them to say anything.
However, even if Sun Quan is Sun Jian's son, even if Sun Quan is a genius since childhood, they still think it is too nonsense. Is the battlefield a place for children's play? If even a child can lead an army, is this group of people ridiculous or pathetic?
"Second brother, you have to know that even I, the eldest brother, only entered the battlefield for the first time when I was fourteen years old, and I started as a pawn in front of the battle." Sun Ce was the first to speak. Sun Quan was too young to tell, and If you lead troops as soon as you arrive, how can you convince the crowd?
Even if Sun Quan is only given a sinecure, such nepotism and childish behavior will damage Sun Jian's reputation in the army.
Sun Jian was silent and did not express his position directly. He just looked at Sun Quan. Based on Sun Jian's understanding of Sun Quan, he believed that Sun Quan would not have thought of these problems; moreover, they did not win the battle today, so they would not give Sun Quan the illusion that the war was easy to fight. So, why did Sun Quan make such a request?
