Chapter 2321: Cao Cao's Messenger (Page 1/1)
These people can have a bright future after taking refuge in Cao Cao, but he is different. He is King Wu. As a prince, even after taking refuge in Cao Cao, he can never expect a good end. The best result is to be imprisoned by Cao Cao. Get up, without power in his hands, and die in depression.
"Wu Wang, Master Zhang, please see me."
"Let Zhang Zhao come in." Sun Quan said lightly.
Zhang Zhao saluted: "My subordinates have seen King Wu."
"I don't know if Master Zhang came here, why?" Sun Quan asked, Zhang Zhao has a high prestige among Jiangdong civil officials, even if Sun Quan faces Zhang Zhao, he still has to worry about three points.
Zhang Zhao said: "Wu Wang, Xu Du sent an envoy to come."
"What can we do if we send an envoy? Cao Cao led the army to attack Jingzhou, and Jiangdong is already an endless situation." Sun Quan coldly snorted.
"Wu Wang and Cao Jun are fighting in Jingzhou, I am afraid it is cheaper for others." Zhang Zhao reminded.
"Who is cheaper? Master Zhang elaborate."
"Now that Liu Bei is defeated, he is dead in Yizhou, and his subordinate officers and generals have fallen to death. The prestige of King Jin has been greatly improved. If our army continues to fight Cao Jun on the battlefield of Jingzhou, wouldn't it be cheaper for Jin Wang?" Zhang Zhao said: "The reason why the King of Jin united with Jiangdong was to use Jiangdong's power to contain Cao Jun. If the Chang'an Army defeats Cao Jun in the future, how should Jiangdong deal with it?"
Sun Quan nodded slightly. He naturally considered this situation, but the war in Jingzhou happened because of Cao Jun’s active offensive. Jiang Dong had just experienced turmoil and would not provoke Cao Jun at this time. Before the war, Jiang Dong also After a lot of efforts, the Chang'an Army did not move. Lu Bu led the army to attack Yizhou, and this war inevitably occurred.
Sun Quan complained about Lu Bu's actions. The two sides were alliances before. Lu Bu helped him at the most critical moment in Jiangdong. At this point, Sun Quan was grateful to Lu Bu. However, this time Cao Jun was in the process of attacking Jingzhou. However, Lu Bu gave up Jiangdong and sold Jiangdong for his own interests in Yizhou.
In Sun Quan's view, Lu Bu's behavior was a betrayal. It was just that Jiangdong had no way to deal with this situation. The two sides were just an alliance. The Chang'an Army had no obligation to help Jiangdong Army resist Cao's attack.
The disputes in the world have progressed to where they are today. However, all the princes who can stay, there is no easy generation, and they are all working hard for their own interests. I am afraid that the same thing will be done in Sun Quan's body. However, Sun Quan and Sun Quan The alliance between Lu Bu has appeared rifts.
"In the opinion of Master Zhang?" Sun Quan said.
"From the subordinate's point of view, it might as well give Jiang Xia to Cao Jun, and King Wu and Cao Cao form an alliance to fight the Chang'an Army together." Zhang Zhao arched his hands.
"Hmph, Cao Jun broke through the king's city in Jingzhou, and when the Cao army and the Chang'an army are going to fight in Japan, how can there be such a simple thing for this king to send troops to help Cao Cao." Sun Quan's tone was a bit unkind, and he was also a bit dissatisfied with Zhang Zhao.
Jiang Xia was in danger under the attack of Cao Jun, but Sun Quan had expectations for Jiang Xia after all. If Jiang Xia was handed over to Cao Jun in this way, what prestige would he have in Jiangdong.
Zhang Zhao looked complacent. He believed that Sun Quan would understand the reason. At present, it is impossible for the Jiangdong Army to defend Jiangxia. Instead of consuming more troops on the battlefield of Jingzhou, it is better to give up as soon as possible. , Zhang Zhao has a heart for Sun Quan.
Jiangdong is rich, but the consumption on the battlefield puts huge pressure on Jiangdong. On the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, the daily consumption of food and grass is not a few.
"After the imperial emissary enters the city, let him come to see this king." After a long silence, Sun Quan said.
"Here." Zhang Zhao bowed his hand and left.
Sun Quan’s expression was a bit cold. The Jiangdong officials did not choose to support him at the most critical moment. This made Sun Quan very angry. However, the current situation makes Sun Quan feel a sense of powerlessness. The position of King Wu is of great significance to Sun Quan. Attraction i, he doesn't want to give up the power in his hand, he wants to rely on the Jiangdong Army to do more.
However, Cao Jun attacked Jingzhou and dealt a fatal blow to Sun Quan, allowing him to see the gap between Jiangdong and the other princes in terms of military strength. The most important thing is to be able to win on the battlefield, such as Lu Bu. In the words of literati, it was the rebels, but Lu Bu was invincible on the battlefield, and Yuan Shao and Liu Bei were defeated and killed.
This is the benefit brought by absolute strength. I dare not disobey the order, even if it is verbally scolded, I have to be afraid in my heart.
Cao Cao’s official Wang Lang was sent to Jiangdong this time. His main purpose in going to Jiangdong was naturally to persuade Jiangdong to surrender. At present, on the battlefield of Jingzhou, Cao Jun has an absolute advantage. It is only a matter of time before he breaks Jiangxia.
Xun Yu believes that sending envoys to Jiangdong at this time can not only show the court's tolerance, but if he can persuade Sun Quan to surrender and give up Jiang Xia, it will be good for both parties. If Cao Jun breaks the city, , If the two sides start a war in Jingzhou, even greater losses will inevitably occur.
Among the princes, there are such powerful enemies as Lu Bu. Preserving strength is good for Jiangdong and Xu Du. Moreover, Wang Lang's mission to Jiangdong as an envoy of the imperial court can better reflect the majesty of the imperial court.
Since Liu Biao inherited the Datong, the Han Dynasty has always been weak in front of the princes, and the powerful princes can only be left alone. Now the court has undergone tremendous changes in Xudu, and the victory on the battlefield of Jingzhou is a good illustration.
As a messenger of the imperial court, Wang Lang's motorcade naturally showed the imperial dignity of the imperial court. It was completely in accordance with the standards of the envoy of the Han Dynasty.
In the team, Wang Lang has a faint smile on his face. This is the benefit of absolute strength. If the strength of the Xudu court is not strong enough, the princes will be like Jingzhou and Yizhou back then. Lack of sufficient confidence for the princes.
It’s different now. The advantage that Cao Jun occupies on the battlefield is Wang Lang’s proud capital. As an envoy to the court, he must maintain sufficient majesty at all times and cannot be changed because of the strength of the princes. Wang Lang was extremely dissatisfied with his performance in front of King Jin.
After the motorcade entered the city, it attracted the attention of the people along the way. After Wang Lang noticed the scenes on the street through the curtain of the car, his brows were slightly frowned. They were the court’s motorcade. After arriving in the city, the people in the city actually pointed to the side. The majesty of the imperial court was damaged.
