"Lu Kang worked hard all his life, but ended up with nearly half of his tribe dead and injured, and fled back to Jiangdong in panic."
"With this lesson learned from the past, everyone in the Jiangdong family is in danger and has to unite."
After Gu Yong's explanation, Liu Zhang finally understood.
The behavior of the Jiangdong family is actually more like self-protection.
During Sun Ce's reign, he occupied several counties in the east of the Yangtze River, enslaved the people of the east of the Yangtze River, and robbed the people of the east of the Yangtze River of their food, supplies, and weapons. However, he used the Huaisi people to suppress the people of the east of the Yangtze River.
They even slaughtered the Jiangdong people unscrupulously!
Under such circumstances, if the clans do not join forces to keep warm, they will definitely be in danger of destruction!
I'm afraid this was also the main reason why Sun Quan later decentralized his powers wantonly.
If you have no choice but to delegate power, why should people trust you?
Now Liu Zhang is facing the same problem.
If we don’t delegate power, what if we get settled later?
But delegating power is absolutely impossible!
"Yuan Tan, Gu's principle is that all families in the world are treated equally, with no differential treatment or special status."
"In the future, whether it is the Yizhou clan who helped Gu dominate the world, the Guanlong clan who helped King Gucheng build his country, or the Jingzhou clan, or the Yangzhou clan, they will all receive the same status and treatment."
"I promise, there will be absolutely no difference!"
Liu Zhang's face was serious, he was not angry, and he did not allow others to question him.
Gu Yong was speechless for a while.
He just said that it was impossible to convince the entire Jiangdong family with just a few words.
But now Liu Zhang's upper lip touched his lower lip again, which made him feel helpless.
"Prince Qin, I am really in a difficult situation..."
Liu Zhang nodded and expressed his understanding.
"Yuan Tan, I know how difficult this matter is, but I believe you will have a way to solve it!"
"Currently, Cao Cao and Zhou Yu have been defeated miserably one after another. They will probably be transferred away if they are not as good as Chai Sang."
"At that time, Gu's army of hundreds of thousands will march into Danyang and sweep across the entire Jiangdong with a devastating force!"
"The difference between surrendering first and being forced to surrender at the enemy's gate is completely different..."
The corners of Gu Yong's eyes twitched, and he started to threaten whenever he disagreed.
But Gu Yong had to agree with what Liu Zhang said.
Zhou Yu has openly stated that he is breaking away from Sun Quan's rule, so there is no need for the Chaisang navy to stay in the waters of Liyang to prevent the Qin army from landing in Jiangdong.
Shanyue rebelled, and there was a possibility of Qin invasion in Kuaiji, Danyang, and Wu counties, and Sun Quan was already too busy to take care of himself.
How could he, who was so anxious, still have the time to estimate Jiang'an's defense?
Besides, there are no more troops!
Apart from sitting back and watching the Qin army march into Jiangdong and engage in a last-ditch defensive battle, there will be no means of resistance.
Liu Zhang is right, this is really the last chance!
Thinking of this, Gu Yong had to make up his mind.
Only a strong man can cut off his wrist.
"King of Qin, I dare not promise anything to the King of Qin, but I can promise that I will try my best to persuade the families who have good relations with the Gu family."
"It's really no good, but I can guarantee that the Gu family will do their best to help King Qin!"
In order to prevent Liu Zhang from misunderstanding, Gu Yong hesitated for a moment and then explained.
"King Qin, there are many families in Jiangdong, and the Gu family cannot cover the sky with one hand."
"Not to mention the distance, Wu County alone has three powerful surnames: Lu, Zhu, and Zhang!"
"Now the head of the Zhu family, Zhu Huan, is trusted by Sun Quan, and the head of the Lu family, Lu Ji, openly removed Lu Xun and went against the King of Qin. Only the Zhang family is easier to win over."
"Gu, the Zhang family has been friends for generations. I will definitely try my best to persuade the Zhang family to join the King of Qin!"
To persuade people to rebel, it is impossible to shout at the top of your lungs, it can only be done in secret.
Gu Yong did not dare to tell the chaotic family, what if the news was revealed to Sun Quan?
Everything must be done with absolute certainty.
Even if you can't convince, you still have to ensure that the other person won't betray you.
"Yuantan, I believe in your ability!"
Seeing that Liu Zhang was not in too much trouble, Gu Yong quickly saluted and thanked him.
"Thank you, King Qin!"
"Haha, it's rare that Yuan Tan works so hard, and I can't just sit idly by."
"Let's do this. Gu Yiwu may help Yuan Tan do what he does!"
As he spoke, Liu Zhang reached into his arms and took out a piece of exquisitely crafted gold brocade silk.
"Yuantan, please take a look at this and see if it can help you?"
Gu Yong took the brocade silk suspiciously, but he didn't feel much in his heart.
At most, it was a letter of guarantee written by Liu Zhang, guaranteeing preferential treatment after surrender.
But this kind of thing is almost the same as empty talk.
It's the same as upper lip touching lower lip.
"Thank you, King Qin..."
But after all, it was given by Liu Zhang, and Gu Yong did not dare to have any dissatisfaction.
He took it gratefully and opened it for a cursory glance.
It was okay not to look at it, but when he looked at it, his eyes suddenly widened.
Just the first few words made Gu Yong tremble all over.
"Qin...King of Qin...this...this..."
Liu Zhang raised the corners of his mouth and showed a proud smile.
"How about Yuan Tan, can Gu's help be useful?"
Gu Yong nodded repeatedly.
"It's useful, it's useful!"
"With this, I... I feel confident!"
"Ah hahaha, then you have to put it away! I'm waiting for your good news!"
If Gu Yong found a treasure, he put it directly into his arms.
"Don't worry, King Qin, I will definitely live up to King Qin's trust!"
"It's just... I have another request."
"It doesn't matter if you say it."
"Please ask the King of Qin to march eastward and invade Danyang County massively!"
"Being separated by the Yangtze River, people would think that Sun Quan is protected by a natural moat. Only by breaking through the natural moat can some people wake up!"
The best help is to come to the city with troops!
Otherwise, even if Lujiang County sinks millions of troops, it will not help.
People will think you are incapable of crossing the river.
But it was different when we landed in Danyang County. From then on, the water battle turned into a land battle!
The crisis of the Sun family's destruction has completely begun the countdown!
"no problem!"
Liu Zhang agreed directly without any hesitation.
Needless to say, Gu Yong said this was what he wanted to do.
"Yuan Tan, I will organize my troops and horses later and return to Lujiang County."
"As soon as Chaisang's navy withdraws, I will immediately command the army to cross the river!"
"Thank you, King Qin!"
Suddenly Gu Yong thought of something and quickly reminded him.
"King Qin, you must not forget Cheng Pu of Guangling."
"If Cheng Pu can be stopped, the blow to Sun Quan and the Jiangdong family will be unprecedented!"
"When the time comes, they can no longer count on anyone to rescue them!"
Liu Zhang nodded repeatedly and agreed.
"Yuantan, just don't worry."
After all the discussions were completed, Gu Yong no longer stayed for a long time.
"In that case, I will return to Jiangdong first."
"King Qin, take care!"
