Chapter 713

Xuzhou, Guangling County!

Guangling county is the southernmost County of Xuzhou, bordering Wu County.

Cao Pi led his troops to the South and finally stationed here.

Although Cao Pi was the commander of the army, he was Zhang Liao and Xun you.

Cao Pi had great respect for both of them.

Zhang Liao was a general under the command of Cao Cao. After the death of Xia Houdun and Xia Houyuan, there were fewer generals in Cao's army, so Zhang Liao's position became more prominent, and Xun you, needless to say, was Cao Cao's absolute confidant.

In addition, Yu Jin, Le Jin and Xu Yi joined the army.

The number of troops in this war is as high as 80000.

Eighty thousand elite soldiers went south to attack the state of Wu.

Inside the city, inside the barracks.

Cao Pi, dressed in armor, is inspecting the soldiers.

Cao Pi is very clear about his position.

Watch more, listen more, and interfere less in military affairs.

What Cao Pi did most was to see whether the soldiers were lazy or not, and then to see how their food was, so as to ensure that the soldiers would not be deprived of military provisions.

"Step on it! Step on it

The sound of rapid footsteps came from behind Cao Pi.

"My son!"

A soldier called.

Cao Pi stopped, looked at the soldiers and said, "what's the matter?"

"Wu Guoguo's envoys have arrived. General Zhang and military division Xun will ask you to go back to the Chinese Army account," the soldier reported

"I see!"

Cao Pi turned and left, quickly heading for the big account of the Chinese army.

In a short time, Cao Pi returned to the camp.

Cao Pi's eyes fell on a middle-aged man standing in the camp. When he saw that this man was dignified and magnificent, he praised him in his heart.

Standing in the camp, it was Gu Yong.

It's not far from Wuxian to Xuzhou. It didn't take him long to get there.

Gu Yong saluted and said, "Gu Yong, envoy of the state of Wu, pay homage to my son."

In the face of Cao Pi, Gu Yong was neither humble nor overbearing, and his words and deeds were admirable.

After Cao Pi took his seat, he stared at Gu Yong and said, "Gu Yong, what did Sun Quan send you to do?"

Gu Yong took out a silk letter and said, "report back to my son. My Lord will send me a surrender form to the king of Wei."

The soldiers sent the silk script to Cao Pi.

Cao Pi opened it and scanned it quickly. He was surprised.

Go to the king!

Send protons!

Sun Quan wanted to submit himself to the state of Wei.

Cao Pi's brows wrinkled and his eyes were full of meditation.

Sun Quan's decision is somewhat unexpected.

For a while, Cao Pi was a little uncertain.

He looked at Gu Yong and asked, "Gu Yong, what kind of person do you think Sun Quan is?"

Gu Yong said, "to my son, my Lord Sun Quan is the master of great talent and strategy."

Cao Pi laughed and shook his head: "in my son's opinion, Sun Quan is the master of mediocrity. If he is the master of great talent and strategy, the world will be full of great talent and strategy. "

In history, Sun Quan was between Cao Cao and Liu Bei, and eventually became an emperor.

However, today's Sun Quan is extremely depressed.

The power of Jiangdong never expanded, and Sun Quan was defeated by Liu Xiu many times.

Gu Yongzheng said, "my son, please listen to me."

"Sun Quan, my Lord, is the hero of Jiangdong when he sees the world as a tiger."

"To govern the six prefectures, to have a harmonious government and people's will is his talent."

"Liu Xiu is a great man who has been defeated many times and has a tough character."

"Today, our Lord is stable for the state of Wu, and the people are not affected. It's a strategy to bow to the state of Wei."

Gu Yong talked with great eloquence, and said, "in this way, my Lord Sun Quan, is he not a brilliant man?"

Cao Pi leaned forward slightly and looked at Gu Yong with deep appreciation.

Gu Yong is a man of great talent.

Cao Pi Leng can't help but say: "Gu Yong, are you willing to work for my son?"

Gu Yong's face changed, with an unhappy look on his face. He said, "my son, please be careful. I am an envoy of the state of Wu, not a traitor. "

Cao Pi said: "Wu was attacked by Wei and Chu. How could it exist?"

Gu Yong said: "so, the son of heaven refused to accept my Lord's surrender?"

Cao Pi's eyes turned, but he did not answer, saying: "Gu Yong, good birds choose trees to live in, and good officials choose their masters. You have talent. Don't you think about your future? "

Gu Yong said: "please don't say it again."

Cao Pi Shan Shan a smile, way: "just, just, this son of a lifetime don't mention is."

Gu Yongyue refused. Cao Piyue thought Gu Yong was valuable.

Such talents are wasted by Sun Quan. They should work for him and for the state of Wei.

Gu Yong said, "my son, if the state of Wei is not willing to accept the state of Wu. Then, my Lord can only submit to Liu Xiu. Anyway, my Lord and Liu Xiu are still in laws. "Cao Pi said, "are you threatening my son?"

Gu Yong light said: "I just state a fact."

Cao Pi's eyes, there is a touch of fear, once the Wu subject to Liu Xiu, Wei will have a great impact.

With Sun Quan's obedience, Liu Xiu's power will increase greatly.

Cao Pi said, "Gu Yong, take a rest in the camp. My son will think about it and give you a reply."

Gu Yong asked, "how long is the rest?"

Now the situation is in danger, and the war is imminent. Once the time is delayed, it will be a disaster for the state of Wu.

Cao Pi said: "one day at most, there will be a reply."

"Good!"

Gu Yong should go down.

Cao Pi called for the soldiers and left with Gu Yong. Then Cao Pi ordered the soldiers to invite Xun you and Zhang Liao to discuss the matter.

Cao Pi is the commander in chief, but in fact, Zhang Liao is the real person in charge.

In this war, we have to listen to Zhang Liao's arrangement.

Zhang Liao and Xun you entered the camp, bowed their hands to Cao Pi, and then sat down.

Cao Pi said straight to the point: "General Zhang, military adviser, Sun Quan sent envoy Gu Yong to surrender, saying that he was willing to submit himself to the state of Wei, and sent him to the throne. What do you think of this? "

After hearing this, Zhang Liao looked calm, but he was thinking.

Xun you was not surprised.

Such things are also in line with Sun Quan's style.

Xun you asked, "what do you think of Shizi?"

Adhering to the principle of not saying much, Cao Pi shook his head and said, "it's hard for me to make a choice for a while, so I asked you to come and discuss with me. If the state of Wei did not accept Sun Quan, then Sun Quan would surely submit to Liu Xiu. "

"At that time, won't it set up a great enemy for the state of Wei?"

"Although Wu and Chu fought for years, Sun Quan's younger sister married Liu Xiu."

"There is still an affinity between the two sides."

"Based on this, my son hesitated."

Cao Pi looked at Xun you and said, "military adviser, how likely do you think Sun Quan will fall to Liu Xiu?"

His words seem to put forward ideas, but they are equivalent to not saying them.

No decision!

There's no solution.

Xun you stroked his beard and said, "if we don't accept Sun Quan, I'm sure that Sun Quan will submit to Liu Xiu. However, Liu Xiu will not accept it. "

As soon as Cao Pi heard it, he knew that it was the answer.

It's just, why?

Cao Pi inquired: "military adviser, why are you so sure that Liu Xiu won't accept it?"
