Chapter 123: Sun Quan ascends to the throne


Jiangxia, Sun Quan tried his best to make his expression more majestic, no matter how powerful he was in the future, but now Sun Quan is only eighteen years old, one year younger than Liu Xie.

Sun Ce's death, no matter how smooth Sun Quan took over Jiangdong, but for Jiangdong, it was still a huge blow, the heart of the army, the heart of the generals and even the hearts of the people, Sun Ce's crazy slaughter in the last nine days, the Jiangdong family was killed, and most importantly, the Jiangdong family no longer had the ability to threaten Sun Quan's position, and more importantly, with Sun Ce's death, the anger of many people also dissipated, so that Sun Quan would not bear this anger.

Sitting in the seat that originally belonged to Sun Ce at this moment, Sun Quan was a little panicked in his heart, but more excited.

Over the years, his growth has almost grown up listening to Liu Xie's legend, and in his heart, Sun Quan's greatest admiration is not his brother Sun Ce, who single-handedly laid the foundation of Jiangdong, nor Sun Jian, who left a rich family foundation for the Sun family, but this Han Tianzi whom Sun Quan has never met.

When exactly it was, Sun Quan himself can't remember, it's probably been a long time, from the beginning of Liu Xie's reign back then, to the rise step by step, for Sun Quan, what Liu Xie has experienced over the years is almost a legend.

The two are of similar age, and Sun Quan will unconsciously substitute himself into the role of Liu Xie many times, fantasizing that he is the last emperor, and in order to survive, he will overcome obstacles step by step, make the country strong and sweep away the princes.

It's a pity, after all, it's just a fantasy, Sun Quan knows that he can't be Liu Xie, the lord of Jiangdong, and his brother Sun Ce, not Sun Quan.

But God seems to have given himself a chance, Sun Ce died, Sun Quan was very sad, after all, Sun Ce was meticulous to his brother, but after being sad, the inexplicable excitement became stronger and stronger, and he found that he was much higher than Liu Xie.

Before Liu Xie took power, the world had fallen apart, the pattern of princes, Li Dao and Guo Yan in the middle of the court, the army, and the economy were not in Liu Xie's control.

As for Sun Quan, Sun Ce cleared the way for him, and left him a rich legacy, including Zhou Yu and Erzhang, Wu Huang Gai, Han Dang, Cheng Pu These veterans, as well as Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Chen Wu, Pan Zhang, these young generals, are all good, the most important thing is his third brother, who broke the city with a hammer, this Jiangxia City was almost opened by Sun Yi with a hammer.

These are not counted, there are more people like Zuo Ci who are outside the world to help, unlike Sun Ce's rejection, Sun Quan has a lot of respect for these people, especially after he learned that Zuo Ci forcibly dragged Sun Ce's life for nine days, so that Sun Ce had time to pave the way for himself, it was even more shocking.

In addition, there was an army of 80,000 in Jiangdong This beginning is more than a thousand times stronger than Liu Xie, who was a puppet at the beginning, at the mercy of others, and did not have a confidant.

His own achievements may not be lower than Liu Xie Although he worships Liu Xie, unlike the brainless fans of later generations, what Sun Quan wants to do more is to break the myth of Liu Xie and make himself a myth.

At this moment, in the hall, Zhou Yu and Zuo Ci sat on the left and right, and then down were Sun Yi, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin and other generals, Sun Quan knew that at this time, although his brother paved the way for himself, but to convince these people, he can't be in a hurry at the moment, he must stabilize people's hearts step by step, let everyone know that he is a qualified monarch worthy of everyone to follow, these people are his brother's old department, and they have enough loyalty to the Sun family, and they are also their future dependents.

As long as he shows enough ability, Sun Quan feels that it is not difficult to get these people to be loyal.

"Brother Gongjin" Sun Quan looked at Zhou Yu with a smile, and Sun Quan was very appreciative of Zhou Yu's ability.

"My lord, there is a difference between respect and inferiority, and you must not transgress it."

Zhou Yu hurriedly got up and bowed.

Between him and Sun Ce, Zhou Yu can be intimate, because Zhou Yu knows that Sun Ce doesn't care about these false courtesies, but Sun Quan is different, according to Sun Ce's understanding of Sun Quan, maybe for the time being, Sun Quan will surrender his identity to win himself over because of his unstable foundation, but after Sun Quan's position is stable, this title will be fatal, Sun Quan, as the lord, naturally can't break his word and get fat, but if Zhou Yu doesn't know how to advance or retreat, the longer the time, it is estimated that he will become more and more eye-catching.

"General Gongjin."

Sun Quan smiled and nodded: "I inherited the family business for the first time, and I am not good at military affairs, General Gong Jin has been with his brother for many years and is proficient in Tao strategy, and the position of the commander of the three armies is still continued by Gong Jin." ” "Don't worry, my lord."

Zhou Yu smiled and nodded, "This is Yu's business. ” "The three generals of Gongfu, Demou and Yigong have followed their father to fight in the south and the north as early as when their father was alive, Jiangdong can have today, thanks to your bloody killing of the enemy, and now it is a time of chaos, the three have been in the army for a long time, and their prestige is high, so please ask the three generals to temporarily sit in Runan, Lujiang, and Chaisang counties to stabilize the army's heart."

Sun Quan said with a smile.

When Huang Gai and the three of them heard this, their eyes lit up, and they looked at Sun Quan more and more satisfied, these three places Runan is a county with a large population, which can make up for the lack of population in Jiangdong, the Lujiang River runs through the north and south, and it is the hub between Jiangdong and Runan, and Chaisang is now the rear of Jiangxia, as long as these three places are not chaotic, the counties in Jiangdong have been washed by Sun Ce, and they can't be messed up, and the three of them are in charge, whether it is prestige or ability, it is the best choice, this lord, although he is young, but he is not ignorant of military affairs, and he is blindly commanding.

"Don't worry, the lord is a matter within my own responsibility, and I will not make the lord worried" Huang Gai and the three of them got up and answered.

Zuo Ci looked at this scene with a smile, and as Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, and Han Dang successively expressed their attitudes, Sun Quan's originally skyrocketing luck was rapidly stabilizing, and he was worthy of being a person with a hidden dragon's life.

"Now" Looking at Zhou Yu, Sun Quan smiled bitterly: "Brother Fang, people's hearts are unstable, it is really suitable to attack Jingzhou at this moment" Sun Quan himself is not in favor of attacking Jingzhou, it's not that he doesn't want it, but at the moment, Jiangdong is internally unstable, and attacking Jingzhou is also a thousand enemy casualties and eight hundred, it is really not a good time, he is more inclined to Liu Xie's way of grasping steadily, first stabilizing Jiangdong, and then Xu Tu developing.

When Sun Ce heard this, he sighed slightly in his heart, Sun Quan was very relieved to be able to understand this, but the current situation, at least until they took Jiangdong, was definitely not suitable for a steady strategy.

"Lord, Fei Yu is warlike, but right now, if you don't take Jingzhou, our army is simply unable to compete with the imperial court, although Jiangdong now has Yangzhou plus Runan and other places where money and food are abundant, but Runan has been plagued by Yuan Shu for many years, the people's livelihood is tired, and it is the land of four wars, the west and north are the imperial court, and Cao Cao is eyeing in the east, our army needs a piece of territory, Jingzhou rivers are vertical and horizontal, it is suitable to give full play to the advantages of our army's navy, and since Liu Biaoding Jingxiang, for many years worry-free war, money, food, population is not lacking, if you can take this place, our army has a moatSecond, there is also a strategic place, to the west you can enter Shuchuan, and you can also unite with Cao Cao to resist the imperial court, which is really a place to fight."

Zhou Yu looked at everyone and said in a deep voice: "The most important thing is that I Jiangdong, maybe there is only this one chance, once our army rests and recuperates, but the imperial court takes the opportunity to annex Jingzhou, my army wants to win Jingzhou again, I am afraid it will be even more difficult." ” Sun Quan couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, stabilizing Jiangdong, maybe he would lose the opportunity to forge ahead, once the imperial court annexed Jingzhou, Jiangdong wanted to develop again, in addition to fighting with the imperial court, he could only try to plot against Cao Cao, which was tantamount to drinking water to quench his thirst, even if he finally defeated Cao Cao, it was only cheaper for the imperial court, and the best result was only to rely on the Yangtze River moat, and the imperial court to draw a river and rule.

"Gongjin is right."

Huang Gai nodded, glanced at Zhou Yu, although he was not used to seeing it, but what Zhou Yu said was quite reasonable, and he agreed with it, and he hugged his fist towards Sun Quan and said: "As for the interior of Jiangdong, in a short period of time, there should be no chaos." ” Sun Ce attacked indiscriminately before he died, the Jiangdong family was basically disabled, and if he wanted to cause chaos, it was impossible, with the strength that Sun Quan now held, if these people really dared to make trouble behind their backs, it would really be death.

"As long as Xiangyang is taken, our army can rely on the benefits of the Han River to resist the imperial court, recuperate internally, and after ten years of recuperation, then cut down Sichuan and Shu, and then be invincible" Zhou Yu looked at Sun Quan and said with a smile: "And this battle, when the battle is quickly resolved, now our army has Jiangxia, and there is Shubi to help, and inside Jingzhou, Liu Biao was recalled to the imperial court, and the new lord is controlled by Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, and Liu Biao's forces are waiting for the opportunity to move, which is the time for our army to use soldiers." ” "I don't know how to fight this battle" Sun Quan rubbed his temples, for military affairs, he understands it macroscopically, but he really wants to lead the troops to fight, and the current Sun Quan is not enough to support him.

"Directly hit Xiangyang, this place is the heart of Jingzhou, the powerful and wealthy families are gathered here, Xiangyang, can destroy the enemy's sharp spirit, and then take advantage of the situation to sweep Jiangling, if these two cities are down, the rest of the counties and counties, break the Yier" Zhou Yu smiled.

Break his heart first, as long as the Jingzhou family is hit hard, it will not be difficult to annex Jingzhou next.

Huang Gai frowned when he heard this: "But that Xiangyang is not close to here, if the enemy forces cut off the way to retreat, wouldn't it?"

"This battle is a surprise attack."

Zhou Yu said in a deep voice: "If there is no Shubi, Yu does not dare to guarantee, but now that Shubi is helping, we can lead a small force to attack Xiangyang, and the lord will lead a large army to attack Jiangling." ” When Huang Gai heard this, he remembered the scene when Sun Yi broke the city with two hammers that day, and nodded silently.

"How many people does Gongjin need," Sun Quan muttered.

"Three thousand is enough, and the last general will go out with Shubi, and the lord will lead the army to attack the city with Zhou Tai, Jiang Qin, Pan Zhang and other generals."

Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, three thousand people, or because after breaking through Xiangyang, to occupy Xiangyang, stabilize the hearts of the people, in front of Sun Yi, the city gate is the same as the decoration, even if it fails, with Sun Yi's ability, he can also retreat, and Zhou Yu has also prepared a back move, even if the attack on Xiangyang fails, but it can make the Xiangyang army dare not fight easily, Sun Quan's side, it can be easier, even if Xiangyang is not down, but Jiangling will be able to break it, with Liu Pan, Liu Hu These generals who can fight well leave, now south of Jingzhou, there are not many generals who can fight. t1706231537:
