While Zhou Yu was rushing to Shanyin day and night, Zhuge Liang had already stepped into the gate of Kuaiji County Governor's Mansion.
Since Sun Quan inherited his father's and brother's inheritance, he has been promoted by Cao Cao as a general against captives and as the prefect of Kuaiji.
Therefore, Sun Quan only commanded one county in name, but secretly he was the lord of Jiangdong.
Sun Quan was quite surprised by Zhuge Liang's sudden visit.
However, it was out of recognition of Zhuge Liang's talent and Zhuge Liang himself's strong relationship in Jingxiang.
Sun Quan received him with extremely high etiquette.
Accompanying him were Gu Yong, the prime minister of Kuaiji County, who was Sun Quan's closest friend at the moment, and Zhang Yun, the head of the Zhang family in Wu County, one of the four great families in the south of the Yangtze River.
Although this Zhang Yun has the same name as Liu Biao's nephew, he is not the same person.
The four major surnames in Jiangnan, Gu, Lu, Zhu and Zhang, are closely related, and Gu Yong and Zhang Yun have a close friendship.
At this time, Zhang Yun served as Sun Quan's general in command of the captives, and he was also relied upon by Sun Quan.
After some introductions, Zhuge Liang felt secretly happy.
Fortunately, the people accompanying Sun Quan were not Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong.
Otherwise, if the Huaisi faction interferes, Zhuge Liang will really be in trouble.
After the guests and hosts were seated, Sun Quan went straight to the point.
"Mr. Zhuge, why are you here?"
Asking questions knowingly!
Zhuge Liang sighed secretly, but still raised his hands and looked at Sun Quan.
"I inform the Marquis of Wu that I am here to turn the war between Xuande Gong and the Marquis of Wu into jade and silk!"
Sun Quan's eyes flashed, and a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"I have no fault with Liu Beiqiu, but Liu Bei led his army to sneak attack on my Yuzhang. How is this?"
"Now that Liu Bei is so weak, he just wants to escape with his mouth open?"
"Haha, how can there be such a good thing in the world!"
Gu Yong and Zhang Yun nodded slightly, agreeing with Sun Quan's words.
Zhuge Liang was calm and composed, and he had expected to be so crowded.
"Reporting to the Marquis of Wu, the previous governor of Yuzhang County was Liu Yao's son Liu Ji, and the Marquis of Wu was the governor of Kuaiji County!"
"My lord does not know that Liu Ji is under the command of Wu Hou, so this misunderstanding occurred!"
"Today, after my lord learned the truth, he immediately sent Liang to Shanyin to pay homage to Marquis Wu!"
"The Xuande Guild immediately withdrew its troops and returned to Changsha, returning Yuzhang County to Wu Hou intact!"
Sun Quan couldn't help but admire Zhuge Liang's ability to keep his face from blushing and his heart from beating.
Did Liu Bei really not know? Are you lying to a fool here?
But there is nothing wrong with what Zhuge Liang said!
Coupled with the fact that Liu Ji previously belonged to Sun Quan's vassal, it seems to make sense.
But Sun Quan doesn't plan to let Liu Bei go so easily. Otherwise, how will the world view him in the future?
"Mr. Zhuge, why don't you tell the truth? At this moment, Liu Xuande is probably forced into desperation by Lu Xun, right?"
"I heard that Qin Gong Liu Zhang personally led an army of 100,000 people to march eastward to Jingzhou. The Nanjun navy has been defeated and completely annihilated...?"
Sun Quan's slightly provocative tone seemed to be questioning Zhuge Liang.
You can't even defeat the Yufu Navy, so where do you have the guts to compete with my Jiangdong Navy?
"Wu Hou's words are serious! Xuande Gong still has 50,000 elite soldiers in Yuzhang County, and the food and grass can still last for a year. How can we talk about being desperate?"
"As for what Marquis Wu said about the complete annihilation of the navy, it was just the surrender of the Jingzhou navy!"
"Liu Zhang is currently blocked by Xu Yuanzhi, the commander-in-chief of Nanjun, unable to move forward at Yiling. Even if he is delayed for three to five years, it will be difficult for him to get involved in Jiangling!"
Zhuge Liang's thinking was methodical and he responded to Sun Quan one by one without falling into any disadvantage.
For a moment, Sun Quan was speechless.
At this time, Gu Yong on the side took the initiative to help Sun Quan.
"Mr. Zhuge, with Lu Xun in Yuzhang, Liu Xuande's wish to escape unscathed is just an idiot's dream!"
"As for what Mr. Xu said about Xu Yuanzhi being able to block Liu Zhang, I think it is even more fantastic!"
"Now our Commander-in-Chief of Jiangdong, Zhou Yu, is leading tens of thousands of elite troops to garrison in Jiangxia. What will happen if Marquis Wu orders Governor Zhou to lead an army to attack Changsha at this time?"
Sun Quan's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he felt confident again.
At present, all the initiative is in the hands of Sun Quan, which can even affect the direction of the Yiling Battle!
Faced with such devastating threats, Zhuge Liang remained unmoved.
"Haha, what Mr. Gu Yong said is not the way to be a minister!"
"Since you are a minister of Marquis Wu, shouldn't you think about Marquis Wu?"
Gu Yong looked at Zhang Yun beside him, and then looked at Zhuge Liang doubtfully.
"Why don't I think about Wu Hou?"
Zhuge Liang shook his feather fan lightly, and every word Gu Yong said was what he expected.
"The situation in the world today has become clear. Cao Cao is in Hebei in the Central Plains, Liu Zhang is in Bashu Pass, Liu Xuande is in Jingzhou, and Wuhou is in Jiangdong!"
"The battle between Yuan and Cao in the north will definitely end with Cao Cao's victory! Liu Zhang already dominates the northwest frontier, and it will be difficult to shake him for a while!"
"Cao Cao and Liu Zhang are equally powerful. They should be the strongest in the world! But Wu Hou and my lord are the weak ones."
"When the weak attack each other, they will only become weaker, and they will eventually be merged by the two strong ones!"
"Whether it is Duke Xuande or Marquis Wu, if they want to occupy a place in the world, they must unite to fight against powerful enemies!"
"Mr. Gu Yong asked Wu Hou to attack Jingzhou, thus triggering a war in Jingzhou in the east of the Yangtze River. Even if Wu Hou wins in the end, can he fight against Liu Zhang or Cao Cao alone?"
Sun Quan frowned, Zhuge Liang's words just touched his heart.
Jiangdong has just been pacified, which is a great opportunity to fully develop the economy.
If it weren't for Liu Bei's shameless sneak attack, Sun Quan would have no intention of fighting Liu Bei to the death.
Sun Quan's best decision is to keep the six counties in Jiangdong without losing it!
"Since Mr. Zhuge knows this truth, why did he allow Liu Bei to attack Yuzhang for no reason?"
Zhuge Liang nodded slightly and looked at Sun Quan again.
"Wu Hou, this issue has just been explained by Cai Liang."
"I really don't know the relationship between Liu Ji and Wu Hou, so Xuande Gong specially asked Liang to explain the misunderstanding!"
These words again made Sun Quan speechless again.
Who prevented Sun Quan from becoming a shepherd in Yangzhou? Who made Sun Quan just the governor of Kuaiji County?
In name, it was illegal for Sun Quan to occupy Yuzhang County!
Just when Sun Quan was speechless, Gu Yong suddenly winked at Sun Quan frequently.
Sun Quan understood immediately and stood up.
"Mr. Zhuge, I am a little unwell. You can discuss the specific matters with Yuan Tan!"
After saying this, he walked out directly without waiting for Zhuge Liang to respond.
Only Gu Yong, Zhang Yun and Zhuge Liang were left in the room, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Zhuge Liang did not remain silent, but looked at Gu Yong and spoke first.
"Mr. Gu Yong is the top wise man in the world, and he is also the leader of the Jiangdong family. If you have something to say, just say it directly..."
