Su, finally led three hundred people, crossed the Yangtze River, came to the Que, and then went to see Sun Ce. Sun Ce Lu Su heard the narrative, but also this person may not feel Lu Su.
Lu Su in Huainan has a very good friend called Liu Ziyang, the talent he admired Lu Su, Lu Su would like to find a good master to their ambitions, so he sent a letter sent to Lu Su. The letter said: heroes are taking advantage of the sky. man is a man of great military and political, particularly suited to today's mess. I hope you pick out the mother as soon as possible, do not stay idle East.

According to my observation, the future of this man knows no bounds. missed, man, right decision quickly. the Liu Ziyang's letter, Lu Su also said that a good friend, I agreed down. He disposed of after the grandmother's funeral, returned to Que, ready to go north with his mother to seek refuge with Lisa Cheng.
in this before the sudden death of Sun Ce, Sun Quan succeeded his brother, his brother in charge of Jiangdong Ji industry. Sun Quan in accordance with the brother's will, re-Zhou Yu and Zhang Zhao. After a period of contact, than Sun Quan, Sun Ce Zhou Yu felt more valued talent, so long in his heart Lu Su is also wondering how to pull the unit to Sun Quan.
Su, although my heart has decided to go join their ZHENG Bao, but that is related to their own future and destiny, or should we say hello alliance brother Zhou Yu, listening to listen to his views. When Lu Su went to Que, the Zhou Yu Lu Su's mother has brought Wu Jun, Lu Su will follow to Wu Jun, after meeting with his own idea to Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu said to him: scholars, trying to recruit people in Washington can vary, it is a good master, ah. I also told you a secret, I have heard our ancestors sage once said, to inherit fortunes, instead of Liu's, must revolt from the southeast. You can counting down to square, all the forces in the present in Koto, who won more than Sun Quan? I want to be able to be Tianshun life, achievements of the industry, the emperor, not Sun Quan, who else? Dude, this is such a person is looking for a good master, when ah talent exhibition. I also just realize Zhefan reason, and I hope the man wishes the same, you need not to mind the words of Liu Ziyang. Su-an, that Zhou Yu's words too well, so listen to Zhou Yu's advice, changed his mind, determined to work together to defect to Sun Quan and Zhou Yu.
Zhou Yu Lu Su to get to Sun Quan, and immediately went to see Sun Quan. He Quan said: recommended to go over Chaohu Lisa Cheng, lord if the action slower, he will fly away by. Zhou Yu Lu Su said: , Lu Su put off no longer good, then went along with Sun Quan, Zhou Yu. two people meet, as Laoyouchongfeng general, there is an immediate sense of knowing each other Xiangqi. Sun Quan of Lu Su is very respected, very emotional close. two people sit down and talk, very speculative, often talk about is the one day, but do not feel tired.
One day, Sun Quan procedure together with the civil and military officials, after meeting all gone, can Sun Quan Lu Su confused left alone to drink with dinner, the evening's clothes with the couch. slept until midnight, Sun Quan suddenly get up and sit. He seems to have much to Lu Su said, and it will regardless of Lu Su is Hanshui It woke him.
Su, rubbed his eyes, Sun Quan said: My father, brother and lay the foundation, but also to imagine then the Duke, as Duke Wen of Jin, the achievements of some dominance, but I have not want to know what to do in the end, do not know what a good idea you can teach me? > In fact, Lu Su has long pondered the question, but do not ask Sun Quan, the initiative to say he is not good. Now that the master speaker, he will no scruples, so confidently about some of his strategic vision: want hard recovery, but according to Cao Cao's power to get rid of him could not. For you, the best way is based on the Koto, calmly observe the situation in the world. Now stop the war in northern riding, you can raise an army to wipe Huang Zu, then homeopathy crusade against Liu Biao. along the Yangtze River, from east to west development, the entire Yangtze River basin in their own hands. when the time comes, you will build the country, boarded the Ninth of the statue, and then then unified the world. Perhaps you can achieve the reunification of the Han emperor. Yi Gong, and his mouth again and again: the objective and direction of the struggle.
next day, to thank Lu Su, Lu Su Sun Quan gave generous reward, but also sent to Su, the mother sent clothing, draperies and other items.
some days , Lu Su suddenly remembered one person, so he went to see Sun Quan. He Sun Quan said: Long in the Nanyang. The people take care of filial piety, but also better educated, learned. My lord, he can be brought in to help you do something big business. words are all listening, all from the account, after listening to Lu Su's recommendation, was immediately declared that: teens, when it is young blood, together with him the existence of a swordsman of the gas, which some people he could not understand what that had Zhao. Zhao is a typical scholar, and his discreet , talk, work quite satisfactory, it does not like nature, character, exposed, and do publicity. He said of Sun Quan: do not understand the rules, greatly column column is not modest. The people are still not as good. picky. So he Zhao said laughingly: He painted a policy plan, and sometimes assist in dealing with military affairs, Zhou Yu, and after a few years of life is relatively stable.
thirteen years Jian, Cao Cao personally led a force south. Lashi Jingzhou, Liu Biao died soon, because of his two sons, Liu Qi, Liu Cong not on good terms, and the eldest son Liu Qi and reside outside the office, the real power rests in Jingzhou stepmother Cai Mao Cai and uncle's hands. Liu Bei Liu Biao had asked after the thing though, but the Chua siblings on the death of Liu Biao strict blackout until the Chua siblings Liu Cong surrendered stress Cao Cao, Liu Bei Liu Biao died only learned the news. the face of powerful offensive Cao Cao, Liu Bei outnumbered and had to retreat back. Dangyang a war, defeat Liu Bei is a loss, even small also lost. Jiangxia was straight back before an unchanging heel. At this point can be said that the survival of Liu Bei's critical juncture.
see Liu Bei, Cao Cao back to the river summer, another port in the summer Liu Qi, the number of some concerns in mind. He negotiate with the crowd, said: Xun You said: land to him, the two sides to establish alliances. Sun Quan saw call to arms, compelled by our strong military pressure, it will because of fear and surrender. as a result, the overall situation in southern do not to get out? the Xunyou proposal to send a messenger Chuanxi Soochow side, one side led by eight hundred and thirty thousand troops land and water in hand, almost equal to South.
At this time, Sun Quan was stationed themselves Chaisang, I heard that Cao Cao's army has entered into to Xiangyang, Liu Cong in his mother, uncle of the kidnapped have been surrendered under Cao Cao, Cao progress so rapidly, Bing Feng, Gangneung is almost equal, so quickly discuss how to defend civil and military officials called the question.
Su, suggested to Sun Quan said: , Jingzhou and Wu border, while the flow of the Yangtze River to the north, outside the Yangtze River, Han River, which has Jingshan barrier, it can be said generally solid as iron. together with its fertile land, rich people. If we can occupy it, and that Foundation can be achieved on the basis of the emperor. Now, after the death of Liu Biao, and his two sons are not always harmonious, the military generals are divided into two groups. Liu Bei is the dignity in this figure, forced by Cao Cao, Liu Biao stays at there. Liu Bei Liu Biao as the ability to worry for too strong and he can not reuse. If Liu Bei and Liu Biao to two sons together, stand united, then we should be calm, to form alliance with them; if they are internal contradictions Then we choose another time to eat them, thus completing our cause. My lord, I request you to the summer on behalf of mouth, the two sons of Liu Biao tribute and condolences, but also took the opportunity to Jingzhou Army said in a friendly and powerful figures ; but also a good way to persuade Liu Bei Liu Biao's Department to appease the public, we were all focused exclusively together to deal with Cao Cao. I think Liu Bei will welcome our approach and be acceptable. If I can achieve this idea, then, world affairs can be easier to handle. If we act a little slow, then I'm afraid it will go ahead of us Cao Cao. to Daxia port, Cao Cao's army arrived in Jingzhou, and day and night to move forward. When Nelson arrived Lu Su, Liu Cong have surrendered to Cao Cao, Liu Bei is the way the southern escape in panic, going through the Yangtze River, to flee to South . Lu Su to inquire about the direction of Liu Bei's camp, direct Looking Liu Bei, the two sides finally met when the County's ChangBanPo.
At this time, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, Liu Qi three measures is also an urgent consultation. Zhuge Liang proposed: situation. I want to do is foolproof. long-term plans, I'm afraid it is difficult to accommodate us? a situation. Jiangdong just send people here if I come along with a boat ride to the Koto, with my eloquence, will allow the Yugoslav Army forces confronting each other with the North. If you win the Yugoslav Army, and we Together, they deal with Cao Cao, then this a good place to try to get Jingzhou; if the Union Army win, we will take that advantage to cross the river. win South. military counselor's remarks just really high on. just do not know who would be sent here Jiangdong? meet, after meeting with Lu Su bluntly describes the two combined together against Sun Quan Cao hope the meaning, but also analyzed the current situation, that is true for the United Soochow area, no other meaning. Su, Liu Bei asked: think of where to go? . In my opinion, intelligent discussion Krupp General Sun Quan Yan Hui, respected sage, courtesy personnel, people in south of the heroes, all have come back to to him. Jiangdong Counties now have the military elite, forage sufficient enough to dry some big business. I intend for you, not as those who sent henchmen to drain a good relationship in order to seek common development. You said to go to seek refuge Wu Ju, Wu giant who is unremarkable, but also in remote places, sooner or later will have to be annexed, this man is not worthy of you to take refuge. The two sides reached a preliminary alliance. Liu Bei and the meaning according to Lu Su, the county entered into the E Fankou. Zhuge Liang also went to cross the river together with Lu Su Chaisang.
Chaisang back in Lu Su, the Cao Cao just sent a letter sent. The letter said: water, eight hundred thousand troops, want to Eagle, General Wu cursory, fox hunting rabbits, I do not know generals are not interested? Look, one and all of his face was downcast.
Zhang Zhao as the first position the first civil officials, said: the meaning of the court. Therefore, if we are to confront him, it became were correct, the words ring true. Moreover, in my opinion, the generals can be brought against Cao Cao, is that the Yangtze River in this natural barrier. now has possession of Cao Cao Jingzhou, as we have with the topography of the Yangtze River. navy under Liu Biao, size, thousands of vessels, Cao Cao took over after the water along the mercy of the military, shore there is a strong army, can be described as both land and water. In that way the Yangtze River and the natural barrier, we have a shared Cao, and both the size and strength is quite different. So it seems to me we surrender to the. ; do not have any doubts about the lord. If the surrender, then the people can Jiangdong without incident, you can also keep South Counties. Lu Su closely followed. Sun Quan, Lu Su to see the move, knowing he has something to say, so he shook the hand of Lu Su said: only began to speak: strange, and asked: on the Executive to be a gun. If you surrender to Cao Cao, where you can go? on the status of your letters up to a Hou, giving you a horse and cart, horse riding, following several others. You can also south of the said Solitary it? We have just said, actually plan for themselves. You must not listen to it! so you make up your mind to the earlier. exclaimed: forces, and more recently has been Jingzhou Liu Biao's subordinates, his power was really very strong, I'm afraid we could not withstand the ah! Zhuge Jin Zhuge Liang, the brother brought over. For how Cao Cao's strength in the end, you may wish to ask him. hotel to rest it. , and then everyone Procedure. See Ming told him to say: Meets machine and the line, never says the wrong thing. on the one asked to pay tribute. Jiangdong who can not so polite, they see the wise young, feel clever, but the knowledge must not go strong. In order to brake brake Zhuge Liang's power and prestige, made him unable to speak as lobbyists, just Xu Li finished, they swing the Longmen Zhen, playing the wheel of war. before and after Zhao, Yu Fan, step stallion, Xue Cong, Lu Ji, grim, Cheng Bing, who in turn launched an attack, wanted to embarrass the wise, be the last The results are defeated one by one. Later Pseudopleuronectes to come forward and end this war of words be considered.
Huang Gai, Lu Su are the party of the war, those who advocate the surrender of the despised people, so that the debate is just is only a waste of breath, no sense, then quickly left the procedure room with a wise, see Sun Quan.
Although Lu Su Zhuge Liang had that attitude in advance, but Lu Su is still not assured, so once again told Zhuge Liang said: polite, Ming himself down the steps to meet, talk, move all seem polite and restrained. both subject and object finish line of the ceremony, Sun Quan Ming, please sit down. other civil and military officers stood in two rows, Lu Su Ming, standing beside to see how he talk.
This is the first time to see Sun Quan Ming, some carefully looked inevitable. to see Sun Quan blue eyes, purple beard, is indeed a strange appearance, Ming thought, this species are often arrogant nature, the general lobbying hard work, inspired only by attempting to rally the will and confidence, then deliberately exaggerate the strength of Cao Cao, Sun Quan to size up the situation, early surrender, the Sun Quan face became pale with anger, the result is stormed and income.
Su, Ming does not see the word commitment, talking about some other meaning entirely, and my heart could not help but move the gas, so blame the Ming said: generosity of my master, do not blame you in person. What you have said is simply despise me, Master! own way to deal with Cao Cao, the Lu Su was to change attitudes, his face a smile, and turned into Sun Quan after the church went to see.
Lu Su of Sun Quan said: , just to see how your gas. From his words we can see, he has the means to deal with Cao Cao, and just want to ask you to condescend to him. , in order to deal with Cao Cao, I have been wronged then what point, and it will turn anger to joy, and together with Lu Su Ming and came out. First, that the wise man suspected of Italy, and then again after the invitation of hindsight into the Church, hosted a dinner. is is under the good offices of Lu Su, Sun Quan and Liu Bei only cooperation between the turning point. Ming Quan analysis of the actual situation Cao, Cao pointed out the weaknesses that the Sun, Liu joined hands to defeat Cao Cao is entirely possible. Sun Quan This statement Ming heard talk, feel more confident when facing the Ming said that he had determined to join hands with Liu Bei, Cao plans to jointly break, and Lu Su to the civil and military ministers to declare his attitude of anti-Cao, Lu Su Ming letting escorted back to the hotel resting.
hands of civil officials to Sun Quan and his generals thought not consistent with the face of Cao Cao's million troops, most people are pessimistic, think that this was no time to fight against Cao Cao different from ������ʯͷ, and therefore are Yili advocate surrender, among which the most prominent civil officials in the first Zhao.
eighth chapter: Lu Su words: strategic vision and the gentleman (b)
Zhao heard Sun Quan Ming's words and ideas for use of force against Cao, could not help but impatient of. Sun Quan came out, he would meet her and said: You think, at this time Cao Cao Liu Bei was forced to a retreat passed on, and even a place to stand almost gone. Ming wants you to join hands with Liu Bei, Liu Bei that point the power can be can do! is not want you to Liu Bei Huozhongquli for He won breathing space! My lord, you think again, even if we two together, and that the results of what can? Yuan Shao as powerful, not to be Cao Cao still eat it? had Yuan, Cao confrontation, the Yuan strong and weak Cao , Cao Cao will be lost no one that can result is a clean defeated Yuan Shao. Cao Cao now compared with the original, has been quite different. He has a million of the public, but also land and water in hand. Jiangdong this alone, point of troops, would like to save Liu Bei, it is like holding dry wood to fire it! finished, Gu Yong added: listen to the words of Zhang cloth it. while, will have to exit.
Lu Su was also present, see Sun Quan did not talk, he also feel uncomfortable talking about, but really do not worry, such as Zhang Zhao, who then left, he will follow after Sun Quan into Church. see no one else was present, he bluntly on Sun Quan said: his own plan Bale. You may not ten million!. My lord ah, you must not hesitate; Otherwise, you will be Zhao et al harm! You let me think about it! like this, see Sun Quan, Sun Quan will inevitably ask: south. I Wenguanwujiang we discuss how to deal with the result that some advocate surrender, and some advocates armed confrontation, the two diametrically opposed views. In the face of this situation, I really Fannan: fight Well, another worry for outnumbered; to surrender Well, I'm afraid not tolerate Cao Cao. so it could not decide. exhortations? She had quoted the words of your brother is dying: an internal matter of decision if not, you can ask Zhao; decision if external events can not, you can consult Zhou Yu. That being the case, why do not you invited to Zhou Yu, and asked asked his opinion? ! navy, army combat water, how will directly determine the outcome of both sides, he personally went to the Poyang Lake, the water of Soochow rigorous and systematic military training. However, he forces the water while training, while also always concerned about the overall situation. I heard Cao Cao rate of force to move south, the annexation of southern great meaning, he estimated that the civil and military officials Soochow face this situation is bound to have differences of opinion, and he will train the military to do a little account of the water immediately start back Chaisang. So Sun Quan messenger has not yet sent off, he has first had.
because of his friendship with Lu Su's deepest, and he first went to Lu Su. two people we met, Lu Su side immediately to the detailed description of Zhou Yu and expressed his anxiety. Zhou Yu tried to comfort him: . Zhou Yu Zhuge Liang came to the same. Zhou Yu considered Zhuge Liang is a guest to the reception area was very polite. resourcefulness can be of two people who are, after all, a little bit subconsciously Doudou wisdom, rather than a clean breast of his ideas at once. until Zhuge Liang intentionally willing to respect that as long as the Koto II Joe sent out to resolve the war, once the shock was Qiqiaoshengyan Zhou Yu, Zhou Yu Cao This shows that their anti-military ideas. and then three the next day to discuss how to persuade with Sun Quan.
In the proceedings of the meeting the next day, Zhou Yu Zhao, who refuted the capitulation views, also the detailed analysis of the two sides of Sun Quan situation, especially that this use of troops south of Cao Cao made a bogey four military strategists firmly demonstrated the confidence to defeat Cao Cao, Sun Quan on the force so that there is enough confidence in the anti-Cao.
