"you..."
Sun Jie looked anxious and was about to argue with Liu Zhang again.
Lu Meng on the side saw this and quickly yelled.
"Shut up!"
Lu Meng's eyes widened, and his eyeballs became slightly bulging.
Anger has long been reflected in roars.
"I..."
"you shut up!"
Sun Jie wanted to explain, but unfortunately Lu Meng didn't give him a chance.
chaos! too messy!
Lu Meng originally had a complete plan, but now it was completely disrupted by Sun Jie.
"Forgive me, King Qin! Sun Jie is young and talking nonsense, which is not what Mr. Wu meant at all!"
Liu Zhang glanced at Lu Meng lightly.
"General Lu, the compensation you gave Gu is not an alliance, right?"
Lu Meng's eyes twitched in embarrassment. It was neither an answer nor a no answer.
After thinking about it, I had to change the topic.
"King Qin, what you just said about forming an alliance with Cao Cao was a joke, or...?"
"of course it's true!"
Liu Zhang answered extremely quickly and his tone was very firm, leaving no room for doubt.
A trace of panic finally appeared in Lu Meng's eyes.
But it only passed for a moment, and he soon regained his composure.
"To the King of Qin, I have something to say. I don't know whether I should say it or not?"
Liu Zhang really wanted to say, 'Stop talking about it'.
But after pondering for a while, he finally nodded.
"I am all ears."
"Don't dare!"
Lu Meng first bowed his hands and saluted, then glared at Sun Jie in warning before speaking slowly.
"The King of Qin is a descendant of King Lu Gong and the only clan member of the Han Dynasty in the world today."
"I believe that the King of Qin must have revived the Han Dynasty as his lifelong goal!"
Liu Zhang would not reject this statement and nodded lightly.
Moreover, denying Liu Bei's Han clan identity was also very concerning to Liu Zhang.
"The King of Qin is a loyal minister of the Han Dynasty and the pillar of the country. This is already indisputable! At the same time, there is another thing that is equally indisputable."
"Cao Cao was named Han Prime Minister, but he was actually a traitor to the Han! After becoming king and founding the country, he further revealed his ambition to usurp the Han and establish himself on his own!"
"From ancient times to the present, national traitors and loyal ministers are at odds with each other! If the King of Qin formed an alliance with Cao Cao's traitors, wouldn't it encourage his arrogance to usurp the Han Dynasty and establish himself on his own?"
As Liu Zhang expected, he opened his mouth to attack Cao Cao!
Fortunately, Xiahou Dun and others were not here, otherwise another fight would have broken out.
However, Liu Zhang already had a countermeasure.
"General Lu, let's put aside whether Cao Cao is a traitor to the country. Is Sun Quan a loyal minister?"
"Being granted the title of Duke of Wu today is purely due to Cao Cao's incompetence! If it weren't for his tragic defeat at the hands of Lu Xun on the Yangtze River, would Sun Quan still want to be called a loner?"
"From the moment Sun Ce drove away Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, Sun had already put on the hat of a rebel!"
"In the final analysis, they are just rebels who stole Yangzhou and supported themselves with troops!"
Liu Zhang's words were sharp and he directly beat Sun Quan to the bottom and stripped him clean.
Mentioning Liu Yao was enough to leave Sun Quan with no room for excuse.
After all, Liu Yao was the governor of Yangzhou conferred by the imperial court!
Sun Ce drove Liu Yao away. What else was he if he wasn't a traitor?
Lu Meng was not too anxious or surprised.
Not only that, in order not to refute Liu Zhang, he nodded slightly.
"What King Qin said is true. I dare not refute it!"
"It was only when Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor that the late lord Gong Sun Ce personally cooperated with the imperial court in the campaign and made great achievements, so that he was able to gain the position of General of the Rebellion and the position of Marquis of Wu!"
"After the first lord was killed by a villain, in order to stabilize the millions of people in Jiangdong, Wu Gong faced difficulties and went through hardships. Only after going through many hardships did Jiangdong have the peace it has today!"
"For so many years, the late lord Gong Sun Ce and the current lord Sun Quan have shown great respect to the imperial court and have always wanted to pay tribute!"
"I can only hate the traitor Cao who hijacked the emperor, harmed the loyal, deceived the emperor, and dominated the court! If you pay taxes to the court, you are actually supporting the traitor Cao!"
"Not only is it not beneficial to Your Majesty, but it will also encourage Cao Cao's traitorous intentions!"
Lu Meng's thinking was very clear, citing the achievements of Sun Ce and Sun Quan and the emperor's kidnapping by Cao Cao as reasons.
Completely pushing away Sun's rebellion.
I have to say that, at least on the surface, there is no problem.
Even Liu Zhang could not forcefully accuse him.
After all, Yangzhou governor Liu Yao did not die tragically at the hands of Sun Ce, and until now, Sun Quan still treats Liu Yao's son Liu Ji kindly.
The only person who could be reprimanded was not like paying tribute to the imperial court, but he was pushed away by Lu Meng!
In fact, there is no way to elaborate on the issue of tribute.
Who told Liu Zhang not to pay tribute himself?
However, these words were far from convincing Liu Zhang.
"General Lu, I don't have to worry about how the Sun family's foundation came about. In troubled times, being able to create a country is indeed not an easy thing!"
"At present, Sun Quan's positions are all conferred by the imperial court, so I can reluctantly accept them."
"It's just that since Sun Quan accepted the canonization of the imperial court by Duke Wu, why does he still have to get entangled with the traitors who are causing chaos in the country?"
"Liu Bei used to be a clan member of the Han Dynasty, but now he is even more audacious and claims to be the King of Chu! This move fully proves Liu Bei's tampering intention!"
"Wu Gong and the big-eared thieves advanced and retreated together, forming the Sun-Liu Alliance. How do you explain this?"
Lu Meng handed over his hand again and defended Liu Zhang calmly.
"King Qin, calm down and please listen to what I say next!"
"Wu Gong's heart is devoted to the Han Dynasty, and he thinks about killing Cao Cao's traitors all the time, so that the world can return to the hands of the emperor as soon as possible!"
"However, Cao's thieves are so powerful that no one in Jiangdong can be an enemy! If we don't unite with Liu Bei to fight against Cao's thieves, they will be defeated by Cao's thieves individually! From then on, the world will completely fall into the hands of Cao's thieves, and the Han Dynasty will also It will definitely come to an end!"
"As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend! No matter what happens to Liu Bei, he is Cao Cao's thorn in the side after all, and is also a force that hinders Cao Cao from usurping the Han Dynasty and establishing himself on his own!"
"The alliance between Wu Gong and Liu Bei was really forced and helpless..."
After saying this, Lu Meng kept shaking his head and sighing, full of helplessness.
It seems that he is Sun Quan, with untold grievances!
"So, if Gu Ruo forms an alliance with Sun Quan, then the Sun-Liu Alliance will..."
"Ahem!"
Liu Zhang was just halfway through what he said when he was interrupted by Jia Xu's cough.
After a while, Liu Zhang secretly said something bad.
Unknowingly, he fell into Lu Meng’s way!
By saying this, isn't it a disguised form of setting conditions for the Qin-Wu alliance?
In an instant, the relationship was reversed.
Lu Meng was even more cunning and nodded repeatedly to Liu Zhang.
"What the King of Qin said is absolutely true! If the King of Qin can form an offensive and defensive alliance with Wu Gong, then Wu Gong will immediately break with the big-eared thieves!"
"If the King of Qin makes a move to send troops to Jingzhou, Duke Wu is willing to fully cooperate and help the King of Qin eliminate the big-eared bandits!"
