More than ten years ago, Liu Zhang had a brief contact with Gu Yong.
At that time, Liu Zhang was known as a wise man.
At that time, Gu Yong suddenly asked Liu Zhang on a whim, who should be the talented person in Jiangdong?
Gu Yong didn't believe it at that time, because the name Liu Zhang mentioned at that time was just a child.
No matter how talented Liu Zhang is, can he still tell a person's abilities from the age of three?
But to this day, Liu Zhang has proclaimed himself the duke and founded the country, and has never mistrusted anyone!
Perhaps Jiangdong's most outstanding talent, the commander who can rival Zhou Yu is this man!
Adhering to the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor without any candidates, coupled with the friendship and trust between the family members.
Gu Yong raised his heart and said those two words decisively.
"Lu Xun!"
After hearing this, Sun Quan was stunned and looked at Gu Yong with an extremely exaggerated expression.
"Yuantan, are you kidding me?"
"How old is Lu Xun this year? Not as good as a weak champion?"
Sun Quan could understand Gu Yong's efforts to fight for the rights and interests of the Jiangdong family, but he couldn't let Gu Yong's "crazy" nonsense!
The power of the Jiangdong family is also part of Sun Quan's power, and he cannot tolerate unscrupulous losses.
Even if Gu Yong proposed to be the commander-in-chief, Sun Quan would not have such a big reaction.
"Yuantan, if there is really no candidate, let Cheng Pu be the commander-in-chief!"
"Don't worry, I will remember all the credit!"
In order not to worry Gu Yong, Sun Quan also emphasized the word credit.
Gu Yong did not appreciate it and shook his head resolutely.
"My lord, I am not acting out of impulse!"
"When Governor Zhou followed General Sun Bofu, wasn't he only in his weak years?"
"Captain Zhou can do it, why can't Lu Xun do it?"
Sun Quan smiled helplessly, but Gu Yong said it was not motivated!
"Yuantan, Zhou Yu is talented and resourceful! How many Zhou Yus are there in the world?"
"I heard that even Liu Zhang praised Zhou Yu profusely!"
The main reason why Sun Quan allowed Zhou Yu to do such nonsense was because he admired Zhou Yu's talent from the bottom of his heart.
If Jiangdong can draw the river to defend itself, there will be no problem, but if you want to expand the territory, you will definitely not be able to do it without Zhou Yu!
Don’t today’s facts just prove this statement?
Zhou Yu personally led the troops to the expedition, defeated Huang Zu in one battle, and captured the entire Jiangxia County!
Who is Huang Zu?
To deal with Sun Jian's men, he has 20,000 elite soldiers.
Sun Ce once led an army to defeat Huang Zu, but no matter what happened in the process, he ultimately returned without success.
But this time Zhou Yu single-handedly occupied Jiangxia and opened up a county foundation for Jiangdong!
This is the undisputed fact!
"My lord, who can prove that Lu Xun cannot become the next Zhou Yu?"
If Gu Yong had any concerns just now, they were all gone now.
From Sun Quan's words, Gu Yong had already heard Sun Quan's determination to protect Zhou Yu.
This is more intense maintenance than before.
If the Jiangdong family cannot have a commander who can match Zhou Yu's, they may be crushed to death by Zhou Yu!
"My lord only knows that Liu Zhang met the young Governor Zhou when he was in Luoyang, and he gave him a very high evaluation. Does this mean that Liu Zhang loves Lu Xun more in his heart?"
Gu Yong didn't care anymore and started bragging directly.
Regardless of whether Liu Zhang said it or not, Sun Quan had no way to find out whether it was true or not!
"Oh? There is actually such a thing?"
Sun Quan said this, but actually his face was full of doubts.
Liu Zhang liked Zhou Yu for a reason. At that time, Zhou Yu's father Zhou Yi was serving as the Luoyang Order, and the two had contact.
Who is Lu Xun?
Liu Zhang had never been out of Lujiang County, and Liu Zhang had never been to Lujiang. How could they possibly know each other?
What's more, Lu Xun was only two or three years old when Liu Zhang rose to power. What could he understand?
Even if he had really met Liu Zhang, how could a three-year-old child be evaluated by Liu Zhang as comparable to Zhou Yu?
Let alone Sun Quan, no one else would believe it!
"I will never dare to deceive my lord!"
"My lord, did you know that I was once a disciple of the great scholar Cai Yong?"
Sun Quan nodded, naturally no one knew about this kind of thing.
"so what?"
"Did your lord ever know that Mr. Cai Yong's daughter was Liu Zhang's concubine? Liu Zhang almost killed Wei Jian for Cai Yan!"
"However, Wei Qian escaped with his life, but Wei Zhongdao still died, and he died tragically in the palace hall!"
Sun Quan shook his head, he didn't know about this!
After all, Sun Quan was only one year older than Lu Xun.
"My lord, when I followed Mr. Cai Yong, I happened to have an encounter with Liu Zhang at that time."
"At that time, the two of us talked very happily and became close friends. Liu Zhang almost knelt down in order to get my help..."
Sun Quan quickly waved his hand to interrupt Gu Yong's boastful words.
"Okay, okay! Yuantan, let's talk about the key points!"
Will Liu Zhang kneel down to invite you?
Gu Yong said he was not ashamed, and Sun Quan even blushed for him.
"Ahem, obey!"
Gu Yong hurriedly coughed a few times and woke up from his lustful thoughts.
"Back then, I had a chat with Liu Zhang and discussed the talents from Jiangdong."
"At that time, Liu Zhang told me that in the next fifty years, there will be a person who will be able to command the army and govern the country, and no one in the entire Jiangdong will be able to match him!"
Sun Quan chuckled several times, which was a response to Gu Yong's remarks.
The next fifty years?
What concept is this?
It has only been less than twenty years since the Yellow Turban Rebellion!
Therefore, Sun Quan would not believe it at all, and thought in his heart that Gu Yong had gone to his head because of power.
"Yuan Tan said that there is no one better than him in commanding troops and governing a country in Jiangdong. Could it be that he is Lu Xun?"
Gu Yong nodded heavily, then felt something was wrong and shook his head desperately.
"My lord, it's not me who said this, it's Liu Zhang!"
"It was Liu Zhang who concluded that Lu Xun would be a talented person who would lead an era in Jiangdong!"
Sun Quan was really speechless at Gu Yong's words.
According to Gu Yong, if you win, it's you, Gu Yonghui, who knows people well, but if you lose, you'll blame it all on Liu Zhang?
How can there be such a good thing in the world?
Besides, the huge losses caused by defeat cannot be borne by just one sentence!
"Yuan Tan, do you think it's appropriate to place your hopes on Liu Zhang's words for such a huge matter as the gain or loss of Yuzhang County?"
Sun Quan seemed to be smiling, but his attitude was very obvious.
If the Jiangdong family doesn't come up with some concrete explanations, it will definitely be impossible for them to make Lu Xun their commander-in-chief!
How ridiculous is it for a nineteen-year-old boy to serve as the commander-in-chief?
If you win, you can say that Sun Quan is eclectic in employing people, has vision, foresight, and recognizes great talents!
If he fails, he will be criticized for being stupid, incompetent and so on.
Gu Yong thought for a long time and finally made up his mind.
"My lord, if Lu Xun can't make a contribution this time, everything will be at my lord's disposal!"
"Has Yuan Tan thought clearly?"
Gu Yong was silent for a while again, then gritted his teeth and nodded immediately.
"Please give the order, my lord!"
