Yangzhou, Danyang County, Moling County.
Since Sun Quan became the Duke of Wu, he moved the capital from Wu County to Moling.
Wu County Wu County is located in the hinterland of Jiangdong. It is a good choice for the capital when the four counties of Lujiang, Jiujiang, Jiangxia and Guangling have not been occupied before.
Since the territory was expanded, Wu County was not conducive to rule.
Furthermore, Sun Quan did not want to be controlled by the four surnames of Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang at all times, so he decided to move the capital to Moling.
Moling belongs to Danyang Realm, which is located along the Yangtze River.
It is located in a dangerous and strategic location and can effectively control the three counties of Lujiang, Jiujiang and Guangling in the north of the Yangtze River.
For Jiangxia County in Jingzhou, there was also faster response and management.
Therefore, Sun Quan loved it very much.
This time when Cao Cao invaded Huainan, Sun Quan tasted the benefits of Moling.
Annexing here can not only effectively control the situation in Jiangbei, but also intervene in time when the situation gets out of control.
It’s a masterpiece!
In Moling Wu Gong's Mansion, Wu Gong Sun Quan was discussing important matters with his advisers and think tank.
Mainly Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong and Gu Yong, Yu Fan and others from Jiangdong's local rich families.
In addition, there was Lu Fan who rushed back from Jiangbei.
Under the auspices of Wu Gongsun Quan, everyone was discussing important matters in harmony.
At this moment, miserable cries interrupted everyone.
"Wu Gong! Wuwuwuwu...!"
"Mr. Wu! You have to make the decision for the general!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Before seeing the person, I heard the cry first!
For those who didn’t know, they thought they were mourning Sun Quan!
This moment caused Sun Quan's anger.
"Asshole!"
With an angry curse, Sun Quan gave orders to the soldiers on both sides.
"Look who it is? He's deliberately causing trouble for me!"
"As you command!"
Not long after, Zhu Ran appeared in front of everyone with runny nose and tears.
Extremely embarrassed!
"Mr. Wu! Wuwuwu..."
Who would have thought that the moment he saw Sun Quan, Zhu Ran couldn't hold back any longer.
With tears streaming down his face, he threw himself directly onto Sun Quan's lap.
"Mr. Wu, you have to make the decision for the general!"
"Yi Feng, what's wrong with you?"
When he saw that it was Zhu Ran, whom he had a close friendship with, Sun Quan lost all his anger and looked concerned.
When Zhu Ran heard this, he felt even more aggrieved and cried loudly in front of everyone.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuahahhhh..."
"this..."
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, and they were all a little at a loss.
At this time, Zhu Ran's adoptive father Zhu Zhi also came closer.
"Yifeng! What happened?"
"Wu Gong, father, you have to make the decision for me!"
Sun Quan helped Zhu Ran up and nodded firmly.
"Speak slowly, Gu will definitely make the decision for you!"
After receiving the assurance, Zhu Ran gradually stopped crying.
"Mr. Wu, that traitor Lu Xun is really not a human being! He colluded with Liu Zhang and destroyed our 100,000-strong Jiangdong army. Then he went to Jiangxia in person and allowed Liu Zhang to take over the entire Jiangxia county without a single blow!"
"Wu Gong, the last general was killed by Lu Xun's treacherous plan and captured by the Qin army. Just because he couldn't stand Lu Xun's betrayal of his master, he cursed a few times, and he wanted to execute the last general Ling Chi!"
"If it weren't for the prestige of Duke Wu that made Liu Zhang and others afraid, the general would be dead by now without any trace of his body!"
After saying this, his eyes turned red and tears fell like rain again.
It’s really horrible to watch!
"Damn it! I value Lu Xun so much, but I didn't expect that he would turn out to be a traitor!"
Sun Quan was furious.
Before Jiangxia officials were released, they heard about Lu Xun's general situation.
Sun Quan didn't quite believe it at first, and didn't think Lu Xun would abandon the entire Lu family and join Liu Zhang.
Now that Zhu Ran is back in person, there is nothing to doubt anymore.
"Gong Wu, when Lu Boyan saw the Qin and Wei armies approaching, he was worried that Wu Gong would be defeated, so he changed his banner! He is really a hateful villain who betrays his master!"
"If we are not punished severely, Duke Wu's prestige will inevitably be damaged, and other people in Jiangdong will rush to imitate him. By then, Duke Wu's great cause will be in danger!"
Sun Quan nodded repeatedly, feeling that Zhu Ran's words were very reasonable.
If a stern warning is not given, wouldn’t it mean that whoever wants to surrender will surrender?
"Yi Feng, what do you think we should do?"
Zhu Ran looked hard.
"Mr. Wu, the entire Lu family should be arrested and executed!"
"What!"
Suddenly there were bursts of exclamations from all around.
No one expected that Zhu Ran would be so cruel and would uproot the Lu family!
Even Sun Quan couldn't accept it.
"Yifeng, Lu Xun acted alone. If he doesn't want to do anything to the Lu family, how can he implicate innocent people?"
Sun Quan is not a fool.
Now is the time of great crisis. If the Lu family is harmed without authorization, everyone will be in danger.
By then there will be no need for Cao Cao and Liu Zhang, and these big families will have to rebel against him!
However, Zhu Ran did not expect this.
At this moment, he wanted Lu Xun to regret for the rest of his life.
"Wu Gong is confused! If we don't deal with the Lu family today, there will be countless Lu families in the future!"
"I would like to ask, how many hundred thousand troops under Duke Wu can be destroyed?"
"this..."
When Sun Quan heard this, he began to hesitate again.
Zhu Ran's words also make sense.
"Don't listen to Zhu Ran's words, Mr. Wu!"
At this time, someone finally stood up and objected.
It was Gu Yong, one of the four surnames in Wu County.
He was also a capable minister that Sun Quan relied heavily on.
"What does Yuan Tan mean?"
Gu Yong stepped forward and glanced at Zhu Ran with great disgust.
Then, he raised his hands and looked at Sun Quan.
"Mr. Wu, Zhu Ran's words cannot be trusted."
"He kept saying that he relied on Wu Gong's reputation to escape with his life, but would Liu Zhang be afraid of Wu Gong's reputation?"
"Only for this reason, there must be something fishy about this matter! Please, Mr. Wu, think twice!"
When Gu Yong reminded him, Sun Quan also reacted.
Yes, he has face in Jiangdong, but he has no face in front of Liu Zhang?
But before Sun Quan could speak, Zhu Ran was already furious.
"Gu Yong is so bold that he dares to say that Duke Wu has no reputation!"
Gu Yong snorted coldly.
"Zhu Ran, don't rant like this! You'd better tell me what's going on!"
"If you delay something important, how many heads do you have enough to chop off?"
Zhu Ran was suddenly speechless.
Along the way, he had thought about whether he should hide Liu Zhang's request and directly find a way to ask Sun Quan to execute all the Lu family.
After much thought, I still couldn't make up my mind.
If the Qin army really invaded in a large scale, Sun Quan would not be able to sacrifice him with the flag!
But just after meeting Sun Quan, Zhu Ran's head became hot and he began to act recklessly.
Now being questioned by Gu Yong, he was immediately in a dilemma.
If you don't say it, it can easily lead to big trouble.
If you say it, it will be tragic, it is equivalent to slapping yourself in the face!
Zhu Ran was hesitant and didn't know what to do.
"Yi Feng, what's going on?"
Sun Quan knew Zhu Ran very well, and when he saw his appearance, he knew that something must be wrong.
"This...I..."
Zhu Ran hesitated and couldn't say anything at all.
Sun Quan was even more certain that something was wrong.
Just as he was about to get angry, the soldier walked in and reported.
"Inform Duke Wu and ask for an audience with the officials who returned with General Zhu Ran."
Zhu Ran's expression changed, and he shouted in his heart that something was wrong.
broken!
