If Sun Ce had asked Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Huang Gai to serve as Sun Quan's assistants, there would be nothing wrong with it. No matter how high their status was, these generals were still retainers of the Sun family, taking orders from the core disciples of the Sun family. They themselves would not have anything to say. But Wu Jing is different. Not only does Wu Jing have a high status, he is also the elder of Sun Ce and Sun Quan. It stands to reason that even if Sun Quan is very independent, Wu Jing should be the commander in chief and Sun Quan should obey Wu Jing. But now, Sun Ce directly asked Wu Jing to assist Sun Quan. Even with Wu Jing still insisting on recommending Sun Quan as the commander-in-chief, it is no exaggeration to say that he directly pushed Sun Quan to the position of second-in-command in Jiangdong!
Sun Quan was young and had only fought one battle, and it was against bandits. The appointment of the minister of selection had not yet been made. Isn't this span a bit too big now?
Moreover, it is just the second in command, just like the prime minister is to the emperor, he is also the second in command, but in fact, such a second in command is always under the emperor's nose. Unlike Sun Quan now, Sun Ce directly wants to push him out to take charge of his own affairs. He has to admit that such a "dual-core" configuration has been achieved by few princes since ancient times.
When others saw this, they didn't know whether they were envious of the Sun family for producing two talented people, or they admired Sun Ce for being so tolerant of others and not afraid at all that his position would be taken away by Sun Quan. But no matter what, Sun Quan agreed very much that Sun Ce did this, not because Sun Quan was greedy for power, but because in this way, he could distract the enemy's attention to a great extent.
If there is only one Sun Ce in Jiangdong, then once Sun Ce dies, Jiangdong will collapse, and the enemy will definitely target Sun Ce. But if Jiangdong has Sun Quan besides Sun Ce, Jiangdong will not be able to collapse even if anyone dies, and it is the kind that can take over instantly without excessive use. In this case, if someone really wants to try to assassinate, it will definitely take two people at the same time. Killing them all would be extremely difficult. It can be said that this will prevent the vast majority of princes from sending people to assassinate. Once the idea is gone, the threat is almost gone.
Thinking like this, Sun Quan naturally did his duty and did not pretend to be humble at all. If you ask me to be the commander-in-chief, then I will be the commander-in-chief, even if the deputy general is Wu Jing!
In this way, the Sun family's strategy for the future has been set. Sun Ce continued to lead the army to expand westward, attacking Lujiang, Jiujiang, Jiangxia, Luling and other places; at the same time, Sun Quan led a small number of people to cross the river to the north, occupy Guangling, and prepare for the future Jiangdong to seize Xuzhou directly, march into the Central Plains, and bury Foreshadowing.
······
soon,
Sun Ce took Zhou Yu who had just joined the camp, including Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Sun Bi, Tai Shi Ci and almost all the generals in front of the formation, and once again raised his troops to the west to expand the territory. Of course, in order to cultivate his direct talents, Sun Quan also put Lu Meng into the team through hard work (Jiang Qin, Dong Xi and others were originally under Sun Ce, and it can only be said that they can only be regarded as junior generals at present), and asked Lu Meng to follow Zhou Yu learned his skills.
As for Zhou Tai, because he has a more honest personality and is not as flexible as Lu Meng, Sun Quan decided to let him stay with him. Sun Ce's side is a tough battle, requiring military skills and agility, and Lu Meng is more suitable for that situation. On the other hand, Sun Quan's side, it is easy to capture Guangling, and after capturing Guangling, the main thing is to seek stability, so that there is room for Zhou Tai to play. . According to the different personalities of the two, in the future, let Lu Meng attack and Zhou Tai defend. In addition, if Pan Zhang, who has not returned yet, is added, using Pan Zhang as a surprise soldier will probably be the most suitable for the three men currently under Sun Quan. The style of the heavenly soldiers.
Of course, the future is promising, but reality still requires more efforts. Sun Quan can plan their growth, but in the end it is up to them to decide where they will go.
Shortly after Sun Ce led his troops to leave Wu County, the imperial court's appointment of Sun Quan finally arrived in Jiangdong. Now, Yuan Shu has not been destroyed, and Cao Cao, Lu Bu, and Sun Ce are in the honeymoon period of jointly attacking Yuan Shu. In addition, Cao Cao is more worried about Yuan Shao in the north. He will not deliberately offend Sun Ce unless necessary. For Sun Ce, Sun Quan will be named Naturally, Cao Cao nodded in agreement to the appointment of the Minister of Selection. In order to make Sun Quan's appointment seem reasonable, Cao Cao also deliberately asked Yan Xiang, the newly appointed governor of Yangzhou, to first promote Sun Quan's talents and then grant Sun Quan the title of Minister of Selection. .
Cao Cao's move showed extremely high emotional intelligence, which gave Sun Ce and Sun Quan enough face. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, filial piety and integrity were usually promoted by counties. For example, Zhu Zhi, the current governor of Wu County, promoted Sun Quan as Xiaolian. This was to give people without any positions the opportunity to become officials. After promoting Xiaolian, Sun Quan could be a normal official. Official. Unlike Xiaolian, those who are qualified to recommend talents are only princes, generals, Guanglu, Sili, and governors of various states, and each person can only recommend one per year! Now Yan Xiang, the governor of Yangzhou, recommends Sun Quan who is in Yangzhou as a Maocai, which is equivalent to giving Sun Quan the only indicator for the whole year of Yangzhou. Just kidding, this is different from the provincial top scorer in the college entrance examination in later generations. After all, the ones who are promoted to Maocai are All age groups, countless children of aristocratic families, and how many county governors and magistrates are eyeing this position every year!
Although with Sun Quan's current status, there is no need for such a false reputation, but I have to say that Cao Cao's work is still quite beautiful and makes people feel very comfortable. There are no problems in the procedure. It gives the whole world a feeling of being an official like Sun Quan. The feeling of being right. It can be seen that Cao Cao is really trying to appease the Sun family now. Cao Cao does not want the Sun family to cause trouble for him in a short time.
However, while canonizing Sun Quan, on the other hand, Cao Cao did not give up and once again invited Sun Quan to Xudu as a guest in the name of Xiandi. Sun Quan naturally ignored this. But Sun Quan understood that one day, when his Sun family was hostile to Cao Cao, on that day, Cao Cao might not invite him, but directly issue an order to summon Sun Quan to Xudu. If Sun Quan did not go, it would be disobedience to Cao Cao. You can take the opportunity to cause trouble to Jiangdong.
Putting aside the aftermath, as soon as he received the imperial appointment, Sun Quan approached Diao Chan and formally established his Jiangdong selection department. Sun Quan was the unbeatable number one, and Diao Chan was directly pushed to the position of second number by Sun Quan. Of course, she was pushed to the position as the men's Qin Chuan. Qin Chuan and Sun Quan were the young emperor's companions at the time, and there was Ci Hangjing behind him. Zhai supported it, at least on the surface, no one opposed it. In addition, in order to appease the gentry, Sun Quan included the Sun Jing lineage, a collateral line of the Sun family, the Wu family of Mrs. Wu's natal family, the Xu family of Sun Jian's sister's husband's family, and other close relatives who have always supported the Sun family, plus Zhu Zhi's Zhu family. The Lu family, the Gu family, and the Zhang family, which have a great say in Jiangdong, each have a representative serving in Sun Quan's election department. No matter how powerful these people are, as long as these families There will be no objection, and the remaining families will not be able to make any big waves.
Of course, the above are all officials in Sun Quan's selection department who are responsible for selecting new talents. Don't forget, among Sun Quan's selection department, there is another department responsible for official evaluation, and Sun Quan gave full power to Diao Chan in this department.
