Chapter 339
The sound of the system also rang in Liu Bei's mind,
[Ding, Liu Bei, you took Jingzhou, took Yuzhang, and repelled the Allied forces of Cao Cao and Sun Ce; you performed extremely well!]
[Reward: Physique +5, Lifespan +5 years,
Reward: Danger Perception: perceive danger in advance, and also perceive people nearby who have hostility towards you.]
[Now your reputation is extremely high; remember to be low-key when going out to prevent being drowned by thousands of girls.]
Liu Bei was overjoyed; this danger perception was similar to Spider-Man's spider-sense, which could truly save his life at critical moments!
Liu Bei stayed in Nanchang City for a few more days, leaving Lu Xun, Gan Ning, and Xu Sheng to continue training the navy in Pengze.
He planned to lead troops back to Xiangyang and then back to Chang'an for the New Year.
Unexpectedly,
Amazing news came from Danyang,
When Sun Ce was passing through the mountainous area of Danyang with his remnants, he was ambushed by the coalition of the old subordinates of the Shanyue leader Zu Lang, plus Tong Zhi and Jiao Yi.
He was shot with three arrows and was in critical condition!
According to reliable news, Sun Ce might not make it soon!
Liu Bei hurriedly stopped his pace of returning, continued to wait and see in Nanchang City, and mobilized Ma Chao, Zhang Zhang Liao, and others to lead troops to Yuzhang to listen to orders.
Lady Miss Zhu Rong, Lu Lu Lingqi, Ma Ma Yunlu, Lady Cai, and Lady Fan also took warships to Nanchang City to reunite.
Chapter 250: Ask Zhang Zhao for foreign affairs: ask and it's surrender! Liu Bei: Jiangdong's foundation is 80% new! Add some fire!
Guo Jia reported the specific situation to Liu Bei,
"My lord, the Sun army was ambushed by Shanyue warlords on the mountain road in Jing County. Sun Ce had few troops, and he intended to fight a general to kill Tong Zhi and Jiao Yi, but who knew the opposite side would shoot ten thousand arrows at once; he was shot with three arrows, and one arrow hit a vital point."
Liu Bei nodded,
"Guo Fengxiao, your evaluation of Sun Ce is very correct: light and unprepared, impatient and lacking strategy, the courage of a brute, yet he was still calculated to death."
"What do you think we should do now?"
Guo Jia cupped his hands,
"My lord, Sun Ce's death is a great opportunity for our army to take Jiangdong."
Pang Tong also said,
"My lord, Sun Ce's son Sun Shao is not even ten years old; he will definitely not become the successor. Currently, the only ones with a chance are Sun Quan and Sun Ce's third brother Sun Yi. Rumor has it that Zhang Zhao supports Sun Yi, and Sun Ce's general Sun He also supports Sun Yi."
"However, the most hopeful one is still Sun Quan."
Xing Daorong was stunned,
"Is that Sun Quan who has never won a battle? This works too?"
"I will go to Wujun, capture Sun Quan, and by the way, capture Sun Sun Shangxiang to be a concubine for the lord!"
Liu Bei nodded,
"Good, I'll give you one hundred men and one ship; set off tonight."
Xing Daorong touched his head and smiled,
"I won't speak anymore; I'll just listen to the lord's orders."
Everyone laughed.
Guo Jia cupped his hands,
"My lord, after Sun Ce's death, there will definitely be a struggle in Jiangdong. The four surnames of Wujun—Gu, Lu, Zhu, and Zhang—are already dissatisfied with the Sun family; we can secretly contact them."
Liu Bei nodded,
"Gu family head Gu Yong studied under my father-in-law Cai Yong when he was young; Zhang family's Zhang Yun (father of Zhang Wen), and Lu family has this relationship with Lu Xun; I have confidence in persuading these three families."
"Only Zhu family head Zhu Zhi is loyal to the Sun family; he even recommended Sun Quan as a filial and incorrupt official, and their relationship is inseparable."
The Zhu family of Wujun produced quite a few talents, such as Zhu Ran, Zhu Huan, and Zhu Ju.
Pang Tong cupped his hands,
"My lord, the general trend is such that they have to comply with the timing."
"My lord can secretly send messengers; Jiangdong is currently in panic, and those willing to defect will definitely show something, while those unwilling will definitely refuse."
Liu Bei nodded; this can also be considered throwing a stone to ask the way.
Zhang Zhao can also be won over; this guy, when Cao Cao led his army south, Sun Quan asked him what to do,
Ask Zhang Zhao for foreign affairs: ask and it's surrender!
It almost made Sun Quan angry to death.
Guo Jia said again,
"My lord, Sun Ben and Sun Fu are still under house arrest in Nanchang City; it is time to let them go back and stir up trouble."
Liu Bei's eyes lit up; Sun Ben indeed had the qualifications to inherit Sun Ce's career.
"Good, bring Sun Ben and Sun Fu to see me."
Soon,
Sun Ben and Sun Fu were brought; they hadn't been abused and were even fattened up,
Both cupped their hands,
"Lord Liu Xuande, what is the matter with us?"
Liu Bei said in a deep voice,
"Sun Sun Bofu was ambushed by the Shanyue in Danyang Commandery and is now in critical condition; I intend to let you go back to Wujun to visit."
Both were overjoyed; I don't know if they were happy that Sun Ce was in critical condition, or that they had regained their freedom,
"Lord Liu Xuande is benevolent; we are extremely grateful."
Liu Bei nodded and let them take their thousand-man troops and take a boat back to Jiangdong quickly.
Seeing the two go down, Lu Su cupped his hands and said,
"My lord, the current Lujiang Governor Li Shu has always looked down on Sun Quan; my lord can win him over."
Liu Bei nodded; this can also be done,
Li Shu didn't submit to Sun Quan in history and accepted many people who were dissatisfied with Sun Quan and fled Jiangdong. Sun Quan sent troops to crusade, and he asked Cao Cao for help, but unfortunately, Boss Cao didn't save him, and he was killed after the city was broken.
Liu Bei's side began to deploy intensively,
Wujun's Wuxian was already in a mess.
Sun Ce's General of the East mansion,
Crying everywhere,
Jiangdong's important officials, Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao, Sun Quan, Ye Huang, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, etc., all gathered here,
Sun Ce was almost out of breath,
He held Sun Quan's hand and said to everyone,
"Quan brother's fighting might not be as good as mine, but his ability to recommend talents and plan strategies is stronger than mine."
It meant that fighting wasn't good, but building relationships was definitely stronger than him.
Sun Ce handed the military talisman to Sun Quan,
"From now on, Sun Quan will hold Jiangdong; you all assist him more!"
Zhou Yu cupped his hands,
"My lord, rest assured, we will definitely assist with all our hearts."
Others also expressed their loyalty one after another.
After Sun Ce finished listening, he soon passed away.
Sun Quan arranged for people to set up the mourning hall, handle Sun Ce's funeral affairs, and arranged everything in an orderly manner, reducing the doubts in everyone's hearts.
Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao, Cheng Pu, and Ye Huang cupped their hands one after another,
"See the lord."
Sun Quan also bowed,
"From today on, I hope all uncles will assist me more."
"Obey!"
Zhou Yu was called into the inner room by Sun Quan, and Ye Huang was also there,
Sun Quan wanted to hand the military talisman to Zhou Yu,
"Zhou Gongjin, you and my brother built the Jiangdong foundation together; please take the military talisman, lead Jiangdong, and inherit the great cause of my father and brother."
The goose live broadcast room exploded,
