It must be said that Zhou Yu has a strong sense of the overall situation and is a truly handsome man. If Zhou Yu is sincerely looking for things for Sun Quan, then he may really be able to satisfy Sun Quan's desire to be the boss.
Sun Quan was in Xuzhou, and because of Cao Cao's suspicion, he would not dare to attack Xuzhou. Of course, Cao Cao was very courageous and had done many risky things in his life. If he relaxed his vigilance because of this, he would be underestimating Cao Cao. There is another bigger reason why Cao Cao did not attack Xuzhou, because he currently has better The target - Liu Bei who has not yet gained a firm foothold in Jingzhou!
However, in order to encourage Cao Cao to make this choice, Zhou Yu believed that he needed to help Cao Cao make more efforts.
"Now that Hefei and Guangling are in the hands of the enemy, they have put pressure on us from Jiangdong. Whether it is for self-protection or for deterrence, we should transfer our troops back to Jiangdong." Zhou Yu said, "Where should we draw our troops? Draw the soldiers of Jingzhou."
"Aren't you on guard against Liu Bei?"
"Is it necessary for Liu Bei to be on guard? Or do you think Jiangdong is already safe?" Zhou Yu asked back.
????????????
Cao Ying,
"The Sun family has transferred the troops from Jingzhou back to Jiangdong. It seems that losing Hefei and Guangling one after another has made them afraid!"
"Haha, this move is exactly what my lord wants. At this time, Liu Bei has no reinforcements in Jingzhou, so he is already in our pocket!"
"However, isn't this a little too smooth?" Xun Yu was a little worried, "Throughout Sun Quan's life, he was not the kind of person who was greedy for life and afraid of death and sought stability. Otherwise, he would not have gone to Yecheng to assassinate Yuan Shao. Now Another person sits and guards Xuzhou."
"Yes, this seems to be deliberately leading us to attack Liu Bei." Cheng Yu also said.
"Sun Quan is far away in Xuzhou, so this decision may not have been made by him. Of course, it is not ruled out that Sun Quan wanted to borrow a knife to kill people." Jia Xu analyzed, "Sun Quan once wanted to keep Liu Bei in Jiangdong, but it failed. I'm afraid he started killing. Heart."
"There is no better opportunity than this. Even if it is a conspiracy, I will try to get in!" Cao Cao made the decision. "But, I am worried that Sun Quan will never stand still. While I am attacking Jingzhou, he will definitely attack Hefei." Take action with Guangling."
"Hold on! Hefei Guangling cannot be returned to Sun Quan easily, at least not for the time being! Otherwise, Sun Quan will definitely go to the north to get a piece of the pie in the future."
"How did Jiangdong react to the loss of Guangling this time? The Battle of Hefei dampened the spirit of the Jiangdong people. They shouldn't dare to attack for a while, right?" Cao Cao asked.
"Back to my lord, the people of Jiangdong are not as indignant as they were when they threw Hefei."
"Ha, morale is low!"
"No."
"oh?"
"The people of Jiangdong are here to mourn the warriors."
"this......"
"Sun Quan personally ordered the construction of a martyrs' mourning hall, and the whole Jiangdong community mourned for the soldiers who died on the battlefield. Not only that, Sun Quan also ordered Sun Kuang to keep vigil in front of the mourning hall for three years to comfort the souls of those soldiers who died in the war."
"... He is truly worthy of being Sun Quan!"
"A formidable opponent!"
After two defeats, continuing to be irritable will give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it, and it will be difficult to maintain internal order. On the contrary, low morale will affect the strong combat effectiveness that Jiangdong has always been proud of. As a result, Sun Quan not only calmed down the people and stabilized people's hearts, but also strengthened the cohesion of Jiangdong through this method. Next time, when Cao's army fights against Jiangdong's army again, they will face the most terrifying revenge enemy. Not only that, in this atmosphere, it will be more difficult for Cao Jun to instigate those in Jiangdong than before.

Xuzhou, Futu Temple,
Sun Quan has been staying here during this time to pay homage to the souls of the dead.
The reason why a superior person is a superior person is because he is high and is looked up to by others. Everyone is paying attention to you, either in fear or admiration, and every move you make will be amplified and lead to various interpretations.
No matter in the eyes of others, whether Sun Quan was putting on a show or whether it was his method, only Sun Quan himself knew that he was sincerely praying and paying homage.
Dou Yuru only brought news of the defeat in the Battle of Hefei. Only when the detailed battle report came out did Sun Quan know the true tragedy of the battle.
There were over a thousand dead and tens of thousands injured. Ling Tong and Zhou Tai were seriously injured and their lives were uncertain. They were still receiving treatment from Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing. The most heartbreaking thing for Sun Quan was Chen Wu who died in the battle.
The encounter in the mountains of Luoyang was still vivid in his mind. Although Chen Wu was a member of the Qiao family and not a direct descendant of Sun Quan, the fate of that unexpected encounter always made Sun Quan feel precious. Sun Quan is a very cold-blooded person, and he is not really interested in the common people in the world. However, Sun Quan is also a very affectionate person, and he cherishes everything around him extremely.
"Do you believe in fate?"
Sun Quan asked as he put down the letter Qiao Xuan sent him. The general idea of the letter was that Chen Wu had suffered such a fate, so that Sun Quan did not have to be too sad and blame himself.
"I believe it." Zhen Mi looked at Sun Quan and replied.
Sun Quan was stunned, probably not expecting that an unworldly person like Zhen Mi could actually believe in fate.
"I don't believe it!" Sun Quan said. In this era, there are very few people like Sun Quan who truly do not believe in fate.
"Don't believe it?" Zhen Mi raised her eyebrows, feeling both ridiculous and a little confused. The reason why people believe in fate is because fate is illusory. If you don't believe it, it is based on knowledge. Could it be that Sun Quan still knows the destiny?
"Do you know your destiny?" Zhen Mi asked directly.
"I said I knew, do you believe it?" Sun Quan threw the question back.
"I don't believe it." Zhen Mi's answer was resolute.
"Haha, it seems we are on the same page!"
"???Who agrees with you?" Zhen Mi's eyes widened. They are obviously completely opposite.
Sun Quan has not believed in fate since he was a child. Although setbacks have made Sun Quan continue to doubt himself, there always seems to be an inexplicable force that prevents Sun Quan from reversing the trend of history. Once Sun Quan chooses to follow the trend, he will That’s when you truly accept your fate!
Going against the current, I don’t believe that I can’t break out of this framework!
????????????
Jiangdong,
"Kuang'er, you have been here for a month. The conditions here are poor. Mom sees that you have lost a lot of weight. You might as well go back with mom this time."
Mrs. Wu came to visit her youngest son. Sun Kuang had been pampered since he was a child. He couldn't get used to the hard life of keeping vigil, so he naturally lost a lot of weight.
After all, Mrs. Wu is a mother. In addition, Mrs. Wu forced Sun Kuang to go to Hefei last time. Although she wanted to gild Sun Kuang at the time, something happened in the end. Mrs. Wu was responsible after all, and she felt guilty. Naturally, he wanted to make up for it.
"Mom, I won't leave." Sun Kuang took two steps back and shook his head.
Mrs. Wu frowned. She knew her son was more like her mother. Mrs. Wu could tell that Sun Kuang didn't really want to leave, he was afraid.
"What's there to be afraid of? Whoever dares to object, mother will make the decision for you!" She said, about to pull Sun Kuang away.
However, Sun Kuang still broke free, knelt on the ground, and cried,
"Mom, please don't hurt me, okay! It was my second brother who asked me to guard him for three years."
"You already said, that's your second brother, don't you know your second brother yet?" Mrs. Wu was puzzled. Everyone knew that Sun Quan cared about his family the most.
"Mom! I think you don't understand. He is the lord of Jiangdong now! Even in the future..." Emperors have been the most ruthless since ancient times. After Sun Yi died, Sun Kuang understood everything clearly. He didn't want to die yet.
