Chapter 420

Regarding Sun Ce, Zhou Yu could not understand him better.

This was clearly a war maniac.

But because the pattern of the world was changing too fast, Sun Ce could only be forced to hole up in these three commanderies of Huainan.

After all.

If he went north, it was all the territory of his big brother Gu Yi.

With Sun Ce's current strength, going against Gu Yi was a dead end.

Therefore, after listening to what Zhou Yu said, Sun Ce quickly responded:

"I ask Gongjin to teach me!"

Hearing this, Zhou Yu's fingers kept moving on the map.

Finally, it focused on the territory of the six commanderies of Jiangdong.

"Bofu, after Liu Bei obtained the support of the Jiangdong aristocratic families, he expanded rapidly in the six commanderies of Jiangdong."

"You can replace him."

"Coincidentally, now is the time to take advantage of the fact that Gu Linzhi wants to go north to deal with Yuan Shao and Cao Cao and has no time to look south."

"You apply to him to send troops to attack the six commanderies of Jiangdong."

"In this way, I believe he will gladly agree."

Zhou Yu's proposal made Sun Ce's eyes shine instantly.

In the world today, the only territory left for him to continue expanding was the six commanderies of Jiangdong.

Although Liu Bei had obtained the support of the Jiangdong aristocratic families.

But Sun Ce believed that with Zhou Yu's assistance, why would he fear Liu Bei and the Jiangdong aristocratic families?

At that time.

If he could occupy the vast six commanderies of Jiangdong, plus the three commanderies of Huainan, it would not be in vain to achieve a foundation.

Thinking of this, Sun Ce immediately bowed heavily to Zhou Yu as gratitude for his "guidance."

Seeing this, Zhou Yu smiled slightly:

"Bofu, Gu Linzhi is not a person easy to deal with."

"This time, let Mr. Derun rest; I will personally go to be the envoy to Gu Linzhi."

Mr. Derun, that is, Kan Ze.

In the previous few times of being an envoy to Gu Yi, the envoy was always Kan Ze.

Although Kan Ze's business ability was also quite good.

But every time, he was actually calculated by Gu Yi until he didn't even have his underpants left.

This time.

The plan Zhou Yu proposed for Sun Ce to seize the six commanderies of Jiangdong.

The most important step was not sending troops to attack Liu Bei.

But convincing big brother Gu Yi to agree to Sun Ce sending troops.

In order to complete this most important step, Zhou Yu decided to go out personally.

However...

Zhou Yu did not understand Gu Yi, or rather, Zhou Yu got Gu Yi's focus wrong.

The aristocratic groups behind Cao Cao and Yuan Shao had already been severely injured after being bled by Gu Yi many times.

Now they were in a state of shivering.

After all.

The territories of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao added together only left Jizhou, Qingzhou, and half of Youzhou.

That is to say, only two and a half provinces in the north remained in their hands.

Under such circumstances.

How could they dare to take the initiative to provoke Gu Yi?

On the contrary, it was Liu Bei and the Jiangdong aristocratic families who, if left alone, would likely become a potential threat in the long run.

After all.

Liu Bei was very capable of stirring up trouble.

The Jiangdong aristocratic families were also still in a full-blooded state.

If Liu Bei was not eliminated now, when would it be?

Therefore.

The plan Zhou Yu proposed to Sun Ce to seize the six commanderies of Jiangdong could not possibly become reality.

Gu Yi wanted to take the six commanderies of Jiangdong himself.

The Jiangdong aristocratic families were to be annihilated.

Gu Yi naturally also had to hurry to eliminate Liu Bei, this ambitious hero who could stir up trouble, so as to avoid him running to other places to stir up trouble again.

As for the naval force needed to attack the south.

Gu Yi had not only prepared it long ago, but he possessed a full fifty thousand of them!

Among them, there were even three thousand elite Brocade Sail Thieves led by Gan Ning!
