The young man named Kong Ming was obviously distracted, but he seemed to be listening in all directions. He responded immediately and answered like a stream.
"The opportunity is to be one step ahead of others. Sun Quan has now seized the opportunity. Even if this is really his plan to incite Yuan Shao to go to war with Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao will not dare to remain indifferent. Because once they really respond to changes with the same attitude, , in the end they would just watch Sun Quan take Jingzhou. Therefore, even if Yuan Shao knew it was a trick, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao had to take action."
Saying that, Kong Ming paused and expressed his own judgment,
"But is this really a plan? The Yangtze River checkpoints are different from the checkpoints on land. Whoever occupies the checkpoints on land can stay in place. But the waters of the Yangtze River are different. The Xiakou Pass has resisted the Sun Army for many years, but To the Jingzhou Army upstream, Xiakou was simply an undefended Jiangkou. Sun Quan spent so much effort to capture Xiakou. If he didn't go further, it would be equivalent to giving Liu Biao a chance to recapture Xiakou at any time! There was no turning back when Yuan Shao fired his bow. The others probably recognized this and believed that Sun Quan really wanted to capture Jingzhou."
"Kong Ming, in your opinion, does Liu Biao still have a way to save himself?" Mr. Shui Jing asked, as if he was taking a test.
"In my opinion, there may be one person who can help Liu Biao more than asking Liu Zhang for help." Kong Ming replied.
"who?"
"Liu Bei!"
"Liu Bei?"
"That's right. Liu Bei was originally a chess piece used by Sun Quan to resist Yuan Shao, but if Liu Bei betrayed Jiangdong, I'm afraid even Sun Quan would be unable to sit still." Kong Ming said.
"But Liu Bei has always been based on faith. Xiapi and other places were given to Liu Bei by Sun Quan on his own initiative. With Liu Bei's character, how could he betray Jiangdong?" someone nearby couldn't help but question.
"It's very simple, because of the Demon Sect." Kong Ming said, "Sun Ce is now in the hands of the Demon Sect. Sun Quan is likely to do some unethical actions driven by the Demon Sect. As long as Liu Bei is willing, he has every reason to refuse to help. Jiangdong has gone astray! Moreover, there is actually no need for Liu Bei to do anything. Liu Bei just needs to do nothing, adopt a neutral attitude and do not help either side, and let Yuan Shao's army pass, and Liu Biao will naturally be relieved. Danger."
"But in this case, after Yuan Shao defeats the Jiangdong Army and captures Xuzhou, wouldn't he be able to annex Liu Bei with a backhand? Liu Bei wouldn't be willing to tie himself up, right?" The side said again.
"It all depends on how much Liu Biao is willing to pay. In fact, in Xiapi, under the encirclement of the three major princes, it is impossible for Liu Bei to develop and grow. If Liu Biao is willing to set aside a position for Liu Bei to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, I believe Liu Bei will still consider it carefully. I can’t help him,” Kong Ming said.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was silent. They were surprised by Kong Ming's eclectic ideas, and some people were wondering whether they should use this to offer advice to Liu Biao.
However, as the person involved who came up with this solution, Zhuge Kongming still had something left unsaid.
Yes, this is indeed Liu Biao's method of self-rescue. It is indeed more reliable to find Liu Bei than to find Liu Zhang. However, even if Liu Bei is really convinced, it is still unclear whether Liu Biao can successfully save himself. You must know that the person in charge of Jiangdong now is Sun Zhongmou, who even Zhuge Kongming has no confidence to deal with!
After practicing hard for several years, Zhuge Liang still does not have the confidence to dare to leave the mountain, even though he is considered outstanding among all the hermits in Jingzhou. Because his imaginary enemy is Sun Quan!
Kong Ming cast his gaze into the distance and was lost in thought again: Senior sister, the situation you have been unwilling to face has now really arrived.
??????
Cihang Jingzhai,
"I sent someone to contact Sun Quan, but he didn't communicate much with us. He only said one sentence: You are under the control of others and you can't help yourself."
"Can you believe his nonsense?"
"I really don't know why Master Shizhai released this person back then."
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether Sun Quan is lying. Even if he is lying, it means that he still has concerns and reasons why he has to lie." Shangguan Di spoke, interrupting the arguments of others.
"Master, even if Sun Quan still has some conscience, he has made it clear now that he is not willing to go to war with us!"
"First continue to negotiate with Sun Quan and say that we are willing to do our best to help him rescue Sun Ce. If that still doesn't work, contact that person and let Sun Ce sleep in peace," Shangguan Di said. Long-term pain is worse than short-term pain. In many cases, it is better to stop losses in time than to hang on for a lifetime. Since Sun Quan can't do this, let others help him do it!
"Understood! Master, there seems to be something going on at the outer gate."
"Don't bother."
"yes."
??????
Jiangdong, Wujun,
"What is Sun Quan's weakness?"
People from the outer gate of Cihang Jingzhai approached Diao Chan in person.
"..." Diao Chan was silent.
"Confused! Haven't you come to your senses yet? The fact that he brought you back means that he had already thought about taking this step! The so-called Demon Sect is just an excuse, and they have even been colluding with each other!"
Why.
Diao Chan sighed quietly, why didn't she understand that she had been deceiving herself and others all along.
"I've been trying to believe him... No, he has actually never changed. I always imagined that he lived the way I liked in my heart." Diao Chan murmured.
"If you really care about him, then you should stop him! The prodigal son will never be replaced by gold. As long as he can wake up in time, he will definitely become the pillar of the great Han Dynasty's resurgence!"
Diao Chan took a deep breath, and her eyes gradually returned to firmness. With Diao Chan's current state, even if there were mood swings, it would be difficult to affect her judgment.
"Zhongmou, if he has any weaknesses, his emphasis on emotion is his biggest weakness!" Diao Chan said.
"Emotional?"
"That's right." Diao Chan nodded, "Not only does he value feelings, but he also despises fame and power. In fact, it is very simple to prevent Zhong Moubing from invading Jingzhou. As long as something happens to the person he cares about most, no matter how good things are in front of him. If there is a chance, he will immediately give up and rush back!"
"The person you care about most?" The other party directly focused on Diao Chan.
"I can't." Diao Chan shook her head directly, "He is so smart, you can tell he is lying as soon as you hear it."
"What about Mrs. Wu?" The other party thought for a while and then asked.
"Mrs. Wu is naturally one of the relatives Zhongmou cares about most. But if we dare to touch Mrs. Wu, Cihang Jingzhai will completely become his mortal enemy. This move is simply putting the cart before the horse." Diao Chan shook her head.
"So, we want something to happen to Sun Quan's relatives, but we can't do anything to prevent it from happening?"
So, do you want to borrow someone else’s hand?
Diao Chan's face darkened and she sternly refused,
"It's best to stop thinking like this! If you don't want others to know, don't take any chances unless you do nothing yourself! If you really want to take action, just make him feel threatened. Going too far is not enough."
