Sun Quan expressed his understanding of the two people's questions.
"I know that my uncle and cousin were wronged in Wu County. Now that we have escaped and have no worries, I want to get back to the place immediately." Sun Quan said, "But with our current military strength, we don't have to say whether we can fight. However, even if we can, we must try our best and even go out in full force. But once heavy troops attack, what should we do if Xue Li and Zuo Rong from the north send troops to sneak attack? Is it possible to abandon Liyang too? Holding on to death as if returning home, Determined to succeed or succeed, and not look back until Wu Jun is conquered?"
"Liu Yao's foundation in Wu County is not stable, but we still have a chance." Sun Bi couldn't help but said.
"Yes. It's been a long time. Wait for Liu Yao to eradicate his dissidents and gain a firm foothold. It will be difficult to capture Wu County again." Wu Jing also followed, "As long as Wu County is recaptured and the Yangtze River is used as a natural barrier, Whether this Li Yang is lost or not, it doesn’t matter anymore.”
Sun Quan shook his head,
"This move is too risky, and will injure the enemy by one thousand and damage us by eight hundred. There are so many people watching us. Before we have time to recuperate, we may not be able to defend even the natural dangers of the Yangtze River. Otherwise, we will now have another How do you have the confidence to defeat Liu Yao, who is also sitting on the natural danger of the Yangtze River?" Sun Quan asked back. As he spoke, his face straightened, and he looked at Wu Jing and Sun Bi seriously.
"I now have a strategy that involves very little risk, very little consumption, and is related to the Sun family's great success in the next hundred years. I wonder if you two can think about it?"
"The Sun family will have a great cause in the next hundred years..." Sun Ben murmured, hesitated for a while, then looked at Sun Quan complicatedly, "Tell me what you have to say."
It turns out that in the past few years, the Sun family has declined. Although Sun Bi is also a member of the Sun family, he is not a direct descendant of the Sun family. He is also capable, and has gradually developed the idea of starting his own business to conquer the world. However, after several years of hard work, Sun Ben also discovered that the road ahead was thorny and full of difficulties. He could not see too far into the future. He felt that it was quite good to have a county and a corner of peace.
Whether to be the head of a chicken or the tail of a phoenix, that is a question. But recalling the grandeur of the Sun family back then, Sun Ben felt that if Sun Quan could really bring the Sun family back to its peak, then it wouldn't be a big deal for him to live in peace.
Seeing Wu Jing and Sun Ben's serious expressions, Sun Quan knew that they were really interested, so he talked about his plan.
"First of all, we need to start a war immediately and attack Hengjiang County to show our attitude. Of course, we can just attack casually. As I just said, we cannot really fight, let alone capture Hengjiang County. At the same time, uncle, you have a letter, Send him to Shouchun and surrender to Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu has always coveted Jiangdong, so he cannot let go of this opportunity, and a steady stream of support from the rear will naturally come."
"Yuan Shu can't just send us food and grass, he will definitely send troops as well." Wu Jing couldn't help but say.
"Besides, Yuan Shu would never be stupid enough to send your eldest brother Sun Ce over." Sun Ben looked at Sun Quan and added.
Sun Quan nodded and continued,
"Yuan Shu is indeed not that stupid. However, it is not so easy for him to send troops to change the current situation of the confrontation here. Not to mention that we are holding back the situation in vain and coercion, facing such a large army, Liu Yao will inevitably ask Xue Li and Ze Rong for help immediately .At that time, we will add Yuan Shu's reinforcements to fight on two fronts, and our troops will be dispersed. If we continue to attack Hengjiang County, then we will continue to waste; if they attack Hengjiang County, let us attack Xue Li and Zuo Rong. Yuan Shu’s soldiers are not good at water warfare, so they still can’t win!”
"Then?" Wu Jing and Sun Bi still couldn't see the effect of Sun Quan's move.
"Then, the generals sent by Yuan Shu will naturally convey the dilemma here to Yuan Shu. This will make Yuan Shu feel that surrounded by Liu Yao, Zuo Rong, and Xue Li, he has to cross the river to fight again, even if Sun Ce Even if you come here, you may not be able to win the battle. Then, I asked my eldest brother to offer the Imperial Seal to return to my father’s old army and take the initiative to ask for orders to fight in Jiangdong. Under the temptation of the Imperial Seal, Yuan Shu must be eager to agree. However, Yuan Shu is not a good person, and he will not give us much help, so when my eldest brother brings troops, he will also call back the reinforcements he sent earlier." At this point, Sun Quan looked up at Wu Jing Along with Sun Bi, "From now on, all the members of the Sun family here in Liyang are our own!"
"Then we will attack Wu County in one fell swoop, use the Yangtze River as our defense, and become independent from Yuan Shu!" Wu Jing and Sun Ben said loudly.
A smile appeared on Sun Quan's face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"It's not that we are independent from Yuan Shu, but when the time comes, Yuan Shu proclaims himself emperor and the world is angry, we will obey the will of heaven and break away from him. By then, whether it is justice, the Han Emperor's reward, or the people's support, they will all be on our side!"
It was only then that Wu Jing and Sun Ben were truly shocked. They admitted that Sun Quan was indeed smart and far-sighted. Sun Quan had an absolute overall view and strategic thinking, unlike them, who could only see the war in front of him. Therefore, the two of them fully agreed with Sun Quan's strategy. But Wu Jing and Sun Ben did not expect that Sun Quan would actually be involved in the rectification of his escape from Yuan Shu!
From the perspective of leading troops to fight, this is just an excuse. But in the long run, having a rectified name, being canonized by the emperor, having the people's support, and having famous people come to vote for us, this is a great cause that will truly benefit a hundred years! If Jiangdong wants to continue to develop, it cannot just think about fighting. Sun Quan not only wants the Sun family to return to its former glory, he even wants the Sun family to take a step further and embark on a greater tomorrow!
Of course, Wu Jing and Sun Bi didn't know at this time that Sun Quan's plan was actually further and deeper than they thought, because Sun Quan also involved Cihang Jingzhai and the Demon Sect. In the decisive battle between the Demon Sect and Cihang Jingzhai, Sun Quan can still stop Yu'er's side to some extent, but what about Cihang Jingzhai's side? That's why Sun Quan wanted to use Yuan Shu to proclaim himself emperor to hold Cihang Jingzhai in check. After all, according to Shi Zimiao's order at the time, this kind of thing was their top priority for Cihang Jingzhai, and the fight with the Demon Sect could only be temporary. Set aside.
This matter will accomplish multiple things in one fell swoop and will solve all of Sun Quan's current urgent needs!
"What if Yuan Shu doesn't want to proclaim himself emperor?" Sun Ben finally asked.
"Yuan Shu had the ambition to become emperor. Many years ago, he began to covet the jade seal in our hands. Once he really gets the jade seal, he will definitely think that it is his destiny, and we will help him conquer Jiangdong. When the time comes, how can he not proclaim himself emperor? Even if he hesitates when the time comes, we can give him a push secretly, right?" Sun Quan replied.
Wu Jing and Sun Ben looked at each other intently, but for the first time, they felt a little afraid of Sun Quan, who had not yet fully grown up. This kind of pressure was something that even Sun Jian had never given them.
At this time, both of them couldn't help but have an idea in their minds. Sun Ce might be better at fighting, but in the future, Sun Quan might be the one to take the lead in the Sun family, and even in the world. Such an idea just came into their minds, and the two of them no longer dared to think about it further.
"I will write a letter of surrender to Yuan Shu immediately."
