Yes, it's hard to say how much Cao Cao really wanted to save Li Dian. But what everyone has to admit is that now the entire Cao camp is on the knife's edge about Li Dian!
If you don't save him, his heart will be lost. Go to rescue, and narrowly escape death.
To fundamentally solve the problem, it is obviously easier to make Li Dian disappear completely than to rescue Li Dian.
At that time, actions to save people will be made to appease the inside. Li Dian was "accidentally" killed by Jiang Dong and was filled with righteous indignation. Since then, not only has the crisis been turned into safety, but it has also increased the cohesion within the camp, which is similar to Sun Quan's mourning of Chen Wu.
????????????
Sun Quan's "playing with fire" move naturally had the desired effect. Cao Cao once again posted a hero post, calling on the heroes of the world to fight against Sun thief. According to Cao Ying, it was in response to the gathering, but in fact, the only one who could take the stage was Liu Bei.
However, although no major princes dared to offend Sun Quan on the surface, secretly many people secretly helped the Cao-Liu Alliance. Therefore, the strength of this alliance should not be underestimated, and it indeed gave Jiangdong a considerable sense of crisis.
As a result, the voices opposing the imperial examination became much smaller, but another voice emerged within Jiangdong - Zhou Yu's threat theory.
Let Zhou Yu fight the upcoming Battle of Chibi. Once Zhou Yu wins, his momentum will probably not be inferior to that of Sun Quan. In addition, Zhou Yu still has Yizhou as his base camp. By then, Sun Quan will probably not be able to command Zhou Yu.
So, if Zhou Yu is not allowed to fight the Battle of Red Cliff, why should Sun Quan fight it himself? Or not. Sun Quan, Cao Cao and Liu Bei were both injured in the event of a defeat, but in the end they took advantage of Zhou Yu.
In short, Zhou Yu poses a great threat and must be taken precautions as soon as possible!
"Since ancient times, fighting from the south to the north has rarely been successful. Do you know why?" Sun Quan said to the ministers.
since ancient times? Does this happen?
Although many ministers expressed doubts about this, they did not dare to question Sun Quan's language skills. I had to ask cooperatively,
"Why?"
"Because success depends on the Yangtze River, and failure depends on the Yangtze River." Sun Quan said.
"What's the explanation?"
"The natural dangers of the Yangtze River not only blocked the enemy, but also blocked our journey. I personally led the troops out and lost control of the interior. I sent people to attack and lost control of the front army." Sun Quan road.
"Lord, you can trust us! Jiangdong will never be in chaos if we are there!" Zhang Zhao and others said immediately.
"Then why can't I trust Zhou Yu?" Sun Quan asked, and then continued, "I know that trust is one thing and threat is another. You may be thinking that there is no need for me to increase risks for myself. Then I ask you What is the basis for the illusion that Zhou Yu can escape my control?"
After speaking, Sun Quan left behind a group of ministers who were stunned, looking at each other, and not knowing how serious they were.
"So, my lord, does he still have a backup plan?"
"It seems that our worries are unfounded."
"My lord is worthy of being a lord."
"What kind of backhand is this? Even the arrogant Zhou Yu can't escape his control?"
"Terrible. Horrible."
This way,
"Do you really have a way to control Zhou Yu?" Dou Yuru asked Sun Quan.
"What do you think?" Sun Quan looked at Dou Yuru as if he were a fool, "It's just a bluff, do you really believe it?"
"ah?"
"Otherwise, I would be annoyed to death by remonstrances all day long. Literati just like to think wildly. Well, I will give them space to imagine." Sun Quan explained.
"What should Zhou Yu do?" Dou Yuru was dumbfounded, "He is not sincere to you."
"It doesn't matter whether you are sincere to me or not, I don't care." Sun Quan said.
"Are you really not afraid that he will turn against you one day?" Dou Yuru stared at Sun Quan.
Sun Quan smiled softly,
"Is there anything else in the world that I'm afraid of?" However, after a pause, Sun Quan still put away his smile and whispered, "Of course, I don't hope that day will come."
"I hope so. Speaking of which, don't be too proud. There seem to be some unfavorable signs for you recently." Dou Yuru reminded Sun Quan.
"I already know." Sun Quan said.
Dou Yuru obviously didn't believe it.
"You know again?"
No matter what happened, Sun Quan would always know it. At first, Dou Yuru felt a little scared and could not see through Sun Quan's methods. However, as time went by, Dou Yuru gradually became unconvinced. She didn't believe she couldn't beat Sun Quan once!
"Isn't it just that someone wants to take the opportunity to assassinate me?" Sun Quan replied nonchalantly, "Indeed, everyone's attention will be on Li Dian during this period, and they will use the opportunity of rescuing Li Dian to assassinate me. It’s a good plan to attack the east and attack the west.”
Dou Yuru rolled her eyes,
"So you think Cao Cao wants to send someone to assassinate you?"
"Cao Cao is not surprised, the people who really care are foreigners." Sun Quan's words instantly made Dou Yuru stunned.
"Why did you guess it again?"
"There is nothing difficult to understand. No one wants a powerful neighbor to appear next to him. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has already taught those people a lesson, and I am a military strategist. Once I get to power, I am afraid I will do more than Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty." That's too much. So those people panicked." Sun Quan said, "The time should be around the imperial examination. Are you willing to go hunting with me?"
"Ha, you are really not afraid of provoking a few more enemies!" Dou Yuru said with a smile. You must know that this is the critical moment when Sun Quan is about to face the Cao Liu Alliance.
"People are coming to kill you. If you don't treat others as enemies, won't others treat you as enemies?" Sun Quan sneered. To be honest, he had no ambition to expand his territory, but since someone dared to take the initiative to provoke him, then Sun Quan doesn't mind opening up a new territory and expanding his territory!
"Of course, I'm not worried about those who are coming at me. What I'm worried about is Cao Cao." Sun Quan said instead.
"Cao Cao?"
"Cao Cao is not a person who plays his cards according to common sense. The first thing I worry about is that he will kill people under the guise of saving people, and the second thing I worry about is that he will take action on the people around me, exchanging hostages for hostages." This will be Sun Quan's next chapter. center of gravity.
????????????
chibi,
"You're still here," Zhou Yu said.
"Yes, I'm here anyway." The person who came was naturally Sun Ce. The situation in Yizhou is not stable, and Zhou Yu naturally does not want Sun Ce to leave at this time.
"The so-called Battle of Chibi is said to be a conspiracy, but in fact it is not a conspiracy. Although Cao Cao will come, he may not necessarily fight to the death. On the contrary, we are passive because we must kill Li Dian." Zhou Yu said.
"It's up to him to decide whether to fight to the death or not. But it's up to us to decide whether to fight to the death or not," Sun Ce said.
Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes,
"You want to finish it all in one battle? Is that possible?"
Sun Ce: "Why not? If you win this battle, the world will be named Sun!"
"Haha! Okay!" Zhou Yu laughed, "Since you are so brave, I will help you!"
In the original Battle of Chibi, it was all about taking a break and waiting for work. Now, Zhou Yu began to think more about how to attack.
