Yangzhou, Danyang County, Moling.
Since the Qin army's surprise attack, the matter of going north has been put on hold.
Those words that vowed not to be human and never return were regarded as farts.
Currently, the 150,000 Jiangdong Army commanded by Sun Quan are all stationed along the Yangtze River, across the river from Liyang Water Village.
At the same time, Sun Quan was also working hard to mobilize troops and horses in the territory, preparing to give Liu Zhang a life-or-death victory.
With the help of the Jiangdong clan and his subordinates and generals, the progress was very smooth.
In just a few days, a tight defense was formed.
The outcome of the head-on confrontation is unknown, but if the Qin army storms and lands, there will definitely be heavy casualties!
Because of this advantage, Sun Quan gradually became hardened.
From the panic and fear at the beginning, to the gradual calmness and calm response.
By now, I dare to think about what will happen after the Qin army is defeated.
"Everyone, Liu Zhang betrayed his trust and will not die a good death!"
"I have made up my mind to defeat this traitor in this battle, and then capture Jingzhou in one fell swoop!"
"If possible, we should take advantage of the situation to invade Yizhou and kill this traitor! Let him pay the price of blood for attacking Gu!"
The civil and military officials on the left and right bowed in obeisance.
"Wu Gong is wise!"
Sun Quan nodded proudly.
This wise sentence simply spoke to his heart.
"Have envoys been sent out to restore relations with Cao Cao?"
"For your information, Duke Wu, Governor Zhou Yu is already looking for someone to contact you."
"good!"
The action was so fast, Sun Quan was even more satisfied.
"Cao Cao is not a fool to think that he can unify the Central Plains and Hebei and become the king of Wei."
"To unite with Liu Zhang is to seek skin from a tiger. Cooperation with us is the way out!"
"As long as you convince Cao Cao, you can let Zhou Yu raid the banks of the Lujiang River! In this way, Liu Zhang, the traitor, will be captured alone!"
Everyone bowed down again.
"Wu Gong is wise, the Liu thieves will be destroyed!"
"Ah hahaha! That's right! The Liu thief will be destroyed!"
At this moment, the soldiers came to report.
"Reporting to Mr. Wu, Lord Gu is back!"
"Please!"
Soon, Gu Yong walked in.
Just as he was about to raise his hands in salute, Sun Quan stepped forward to support him.
and asked questions quickly.
"Yuan Tan, what did Liu Thief say?"
"Forehead..."
Gu Yong was a little embarrassed. He didn't know how to reply to Sun Quan.
"Yuan Tan, does he deny it? This traitor is so shameless!"
"Damn it, I'm so angry! How could such a shameless thing come out of the Liu family!"
After scolding for a while, Sun Quan himself turned red and was out of breath.
Gu Yong quickly spoke to comfort him.
"Wu Gong, calm down!"
"Yuantan, just say it, I can bear it alone!"
"That's right. Liu Zhang said that Yuzhang and Luling counties are used to atone for sins."
Sun Quan's eyes widened.
"What! Atonement? Can you atone for his sins? This damn beast!"
"Wu Gong, calm down!"
Gu Yong sighed softly.
"That's it. When Wu Gong and Liu Bei teamed up to frame Liu Zhang, Liu Zhang was always grudges about it, so..."
"Bah! This traitor is really not a human being! Didn't Gu give Jiangxia County to him?"
Gu Yong was helpless.
Did you give Jiangxia County as a gift? Didn't Liu Zhang take it himself?
"Mr. Wu, it's true that Jiangxia County gave it to Liu Zhang, but he doesn't recognize it at all. He has to say that Yuzhang and Luling are the atonement."
"I also argued with reason and accused Liu Zhang from the moral high ground! When I got emotional, I even wanted to draw my sword and fight Liu Zhang to death!"
Gu Yong said with his face flushed and very excited, as if he was going to do it all over again.
But there was laughter from the side.
"Haha, Mr. Gu, please put away your poor acting skills!"
"Are you going to fight Liu Zhang with your sword drawn? Are you going to kneel on the ground and cry bitterly?"
"you!"
Gu Yong was furious and wanted to fight Zhu Ran.
Sun Quan quickly stopped him.
"Yuan Tan, we'll talk about the gossip later. Let's talk about the results quickly!"
"As you command!"
After Gu Yong bowed his hands and accepted the order, he glared at Zhu Ran.
"If Mr. Wu hadn't spoken, I would definitely never be done with you!"
Zhu Ran sneered repeatedly and didn't take it seriously at all.
"Wu Gong, Liu Zhang originally wanted to unite with us to destroy Wei, but something went wrong."
"After the minister left, the thief Cao also sent people to look for Liu Zhang, and even offered to merge the state with him as a price!"
"The traitor Liu Zhang only cares about profit, and all promises are bullshit to him!"
"Therefore, this caused the Qin army to march eastward and capture Liyang in one fell swoop..."
Sun Quan was furious.
The explanation was clear, but it was simply unacceptable.
"Fortunately, Liu Zhang is still the King of Qin. He really doesn't have any shame! He promised others something, but he openly broke his promise!"
"That's what I said about him!"
Gu Yong looked helpless.
"I still questioned Liu Zhang, but he insisted on the fact that he and Liu Bei besieged the Qin army before, and insisted on saying that Yuzhang and Luling were compensation."
"I... there is really no way to convince Liu Zhang."
Sun Quan had a cold face and narrowed his eyes.
"So, Liu Zhang is determined to fight Gu Jue to the death?"
Gu Yong shook his head quickly.
"After the minister kept asking questions, explaining his interests and taking the moral high ground, Liu Zhang finally relented."
"I put forward some conditions, saying that as long as Wu Gong can agree, there will be a chance to unite..."
After hearing this, Sun Quan not only did not look happy, but became even more angry.
"Why, don't tell Gu, he wants Gu to hand over the entire Yangzhou to him!"
"If that's the case, let him give up this idea as soon as possible! No matter how hard he fights to the last soldier, he will never compromise!"
"No!"
Gu Yong saw that Sun Quan had misunderstood and quickly gave in to reassure him.
"Mr. Wu, that's what Liu Zhang said at the beginning, but the minister angrily reprimanded him!"
"In the end, Liu Zhang blushed and was embarrassed to mention this condition again!"
Sun Quan was a little moved.
"Oh? Then what are the conditions for Yuan Tan to finally get it?"
Gu Yong took a deep breath.
"Wu Gong, it's like this. Liu Zhang said that originally Yuzhang and Luling were one county, and Jiangxia County and Yuzhang County would be considered as an apology to him before."
"If we want to unite, we need to bring out two more counties."
"That's...Wu County and Kuaiji County. As long as these two counties are handed over to him, Liu Zhang swears to God that he will definitely unite with Wu and destroy Wei!"
"What did you say!"
Sun Quan screamed and his eyes almost popped out.
"You asked Gu to hand over Wu County and Kuaiji County? You really have the guts to say it!"
How many counties are there in Yangzhou?
At present, Sun Quan directly controls only Danyang County, Kuaiji County and Wu County.
After handing over two more counties, only one county is left!
What’s the point of resisting or not? It's better to just surrender!
"Gu Yong, just listen to me, Liu Zhang wants Kuaiji County and Wu County, but there is no way!"
"Unless you step over Gu's body!"
With a loud roar, Sun Quan drew out the sword from his waist and cut off a corner of the table.
"Listen to the order! Tomorrow Guqin will lead an army to attack the traitor Liu Zhang!"
"Fight him to the death!"
