Jiang Qian was handsome, talented, and eloquent. He once stood alone in Jianghuai.
Cao Cao sat upright slightly and asked with some disbelief: "Zhou Yu is the pillar of Jiangdong and is highly valued by Sun Quan. Can Ziyi Guo surrender?"
Jiang Gan walked to the center of the hall, bowed and replied: "Prime Minister, although Gong Jin is talented, he has been in charge of the military power in Jiangdong for a long time. Strong ministers and weak masters will be suspected. If Sun Quan continues to use troops in Hefei, he may not be able to use the remaining power of Chibi to defeat him. Xiangfan..."
Cao Cao's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Zi Yi is saying..."
"Perhaps it is Sun Quan's intention, or perhaps it is the intention of the officials in Jiangdong. Zhou Gongjin has some great achievements and shocked the master. Now he is trapped in Xinye and is in a dilemma. Gan Yuan can use his sharp tongue to say that he has come to surrender to the prime minister..." Jiang Qian Full of confidence.
"Okay, Ziyi will go to Xinye quickly. If Zhou Lang can command the navy, why worry about the uncertainty of the world? If he can succeed, I will reward him heavily." Cao Cao said with a smile.
"Thank you, Prime Minister." Jiang Qian bowed his hands and exited the hall.
Jiang Qian brought some local products from Xudu and braved the cold wind to drive to Nanyang in a light carriage.
It was winter at this time, and Zhou Yu's troops had basically withdrawn to Xinye to rest, and the number of warships cruising in the Han River had also been greatly reduced.
Zhou Yu played the harp in the Xinye County government office and played the harp. The sound of the harp was like a distant and long trickling river, but it lacked some of the majesty of the waves. He besieged Xiangyang for a year without success, and he could only express his unwillingness through music.
The small county of Xinye has a small population, and the local output cannot support tens of thousands of troops. Most of the military rations consumed daily are shipped from Jiangdong. Many people in the court have expressed dissatisfaction with this.
So what if we capture Xiangyang? Resist Cao Cao for Jingzhou Liu Bei? Are you, Zhou Yu, the governor of Jiangdong or Liu Bei?
Previously, Zhou Yu led troops to suppress the rebellion, wipe out the bandits in Jiangdong, and maintain the unity and stability of Jiangdong. At that time, everyone was in harmony.
Starting from the Battle of Chibi, this group of people gradually became unfriendly, so he was eager to carve out a piece of territory.
The signal given by Sun Quan was also very clear, and he appointed Zhou Yu as the prefect of Nanyang and Cheng Pu as the prefect of Xiangyang.
Cheng Pu was a veteran who followed Sun Jian. His qualifications were much higher than Zhou Yu's, but he was also ranked second as deputy governor in Jiangdong. Sun Quan brought the two together to act as a check and balance.
Since the beginning of the month, waterborne grain ships have been delivering letters home one after another. The soldiers guarding Xinye missed their hometown even more after reading them.
Xiao Qiao only had a few numbers in the letter: She is well at home, and she looks forward to her return.
Zhou Yu closed his eyes and played the piano after reading the letter from home. Unconsciously, the strength in his hands gradually increased, and the sound waves continued like the Yangtze River.
There was a crisp sound.
The thinnest string on the guqin broke.
When he was melancholy, a soldier outside the door came to report: "The Governor, Jiang Gan, an old friend of Jiujiang, has come to see you."
Zhou Yu was slightly startled. He packed up his clothes and went out of the county office to greet him.
Jiang Gan was dressed in a commoner's clothing and had only two accompanying boys. The carriage was filled with some local products.
"Gong Jin, how are you?" Jiang Qian bowed his hands in greeting.
"Ziyi and I haven't seen each other for a long time. I wonder why you came here today?" Zhou Yu asked doubtfully.
Jiang Gan pointed to the unloaded local products and said: "The new year is approaching. I heard that Gong Jin is alone here, so I specially brought some new year goods."
"Zi Yi is so polite. Come and invite him in." Zhou Yu then welcomed Jiang Gan in and ordered people to cook wine for him.
The two chatted for a while, and Zhou Yu saw that Jiang Qian seemed to have something to say, so he laughed and said, "Ziyi came all the way here not to give gifts, but in fact he is a lobbyist for Cao Cao, right?"
Jiang Gan frowned, stood up and said angrily: "In the past, when we were not successful in Lujiang, we could still drink and chat together. I don't want to say goodbye after so many years. Gong Jin has a high position and has looked down on his old friends. He wanted to reminisce with you, but he bullied the officials and had nothing to do with him." Su Cheng was mistaken for a lobbyist, Jiang Qian will leave now..."
Seeing this, Zhou Yu quickly grabbed Jiang Gan and apologized with a smile: "Zi Yi is still unforgiving. Yu just teased her. It's cold in winter and it's time to cook wine and entertain guests."
Jiang Gan sat down and the two drank and recalled the past in Lujiang, as if they had brought back time more than ten years ago.
"Gong Jin, although Qian Qian is not a lobbyist, seeing the dilemma you are in makes me really unhappy." Jiang Qian said under the pretense of being drunk.
"Oh? I'm in a dilemma? It's okay for Ziyi to say it." Zhou Yu wanted to hear what he had to say.
Jiang Gan shook his head and said, "Since ancient times, supporting soldiers and respecting the king has been jealous of the master. In the past, Gong Jin used to raise soldiers to serve the king, and helped Sun Zhongmou to ascend the throne with Zhang Zibu. Although you are sincere, you will inevitably provoke criticism from the officials in Jiangdong. It is believed that Gong Jin was seeking power with the force of his troops, but it seems that Sun Bofu only entrusted Zhang Zibu to one person..."
Sun Ce's ambitions coincided with Zhou Yu's, but the hero's death was really sudden. When Zhou Yu heard the news of the other god's death, he immediately led his troops to King Qin, because countless historical events told him that at this time, he only had his hands on him. Only with an army can we be reliable.
In terms of personality, Sun Yi and Sun Ce are similar, but Sun Ce chose Sun Quan in the end. This is something Zhang Zhao can't understand, and it's also something Zhou Yu can't understand.
Zhou Yu believed in Sun Ce's vision, and after Sun Quan came to the throne, he assisted Sun Quan with all his heart, suppressing the veterans of Sun Jian's era internally, and externally conquering Huangzu in Jiangxia for Sun Quan, and quelling the rebellion of Shanyue in Danyang.
Even though Zhou Yu was so loyal, he only felt awe from Sun Quan, but not the appreciation that Sun Ce had for himself.
At this time kE*N shUFAN Zhang Si. If Jiang Qian hadn't suddenly mentioned it today, Zhou Yu would have always believed that the Jiangdong nobles were influencing Sun Quan.
The authorities are confused and the onlookers know clearly. Jiang Gan's words are like clearing the clouds and revealing the sun. Perhaps Sun Quan's attitude towards him really has some genuine intentions?
"Zi Yi's words are sensational. Our lord Sun Zhongmou is a powerful leader, how can we treat him like an idle person?" Zhou Yu snorted coldly.
Jiang Gan said earnestly: "It's not Gan's exaggeration. Before the Battle of Chibi, Gong Jin was mostly in Jiangdong. After the Battle of Chibi, Gong Jin has become famous all over the world. He is a great talent who can compete with the world. Wouldn't he be shocked by his great achievements?"
"Zhongmou treats me like an elder brother, but Ziyi wants to alienate my king and his ministers?" Zhou Yu was slightly angry.
"Hahaha, treating him like an elder brother? Is it any better than Prime Minister Cao treating Xia Houyuanrang or Liu Xuande treating Guan Yunchang? Even his brother Sun Shubi died unexpectedly. Why should I alienate him if this is the case?" Jiang Gan sneered.
"Shu Bi died in the rebellion, how can he be blamed on my lord? If you say such heart-breaking words again, don't blame me for not remembering our old friendship." Zhou Yu directly pulled out his sword.
Jiang Gan frowned slightly when he saw the cold light of the sword, but he still said loudly: "Humph, if we are really brothers and sisters, why did Sun Shubi still recruit Gui Lan and Dai Yuan recommended by Sheng Xiaozhang after Sun Zhongmou killed Sheng Xiaozhang? If not How could Sun Shubi be assassinated after such a dangerous move?"
Control the big one and control the owl. "Ah this..." Zhou Yu was speechless for a moment.
After Sheng Xian, the prefect of Wu County, was killed, Gui Lan and Dai Yuan fled into the mountains. Later, they were recruited by Sun Yi, the prefect of Danyang, who appointed Gui Lan as the governor and Dai Yuan as the county magistrate. They were treated very politely.
Gui Lan and Dai Yuan bribed Sun Yi's confidant Bian Hong, and took advantage of Sun Yi's unpreparedness to kill Sun Yi. This matter has always been a taboo topic in Jiangdong.
"Gong Jin, if you don't make plans for yourself, you may become the second Sun Yi..." Jiang Gan dropped a bombshell.
