Chapter 398: Cai Zhong

Cai Zhong's arrival made Sun Quan overjoyed.

He told Sun Quan with fear and fear that Cai Mao was very dissatisfied with Le Jin's favor on Ma Liang, and this time he had long wanted to welcome Cao Ren to the south.

But I didn't expect that Cao Ren was so stupid that he couldn't beat Wancheng for so long.

He believed that the Cao family would not have many days, and the end was almost here, and the best way now was to devote themselves to Sun Quan.

"The world is divided into three parts, Sun, Cao, Liu, my brother was dissatisfied with Liu Bei in Jingzhou, and then he fought with Cao Gong. Looking at the heroes in the world, there was only General Sun!

Le Jin used Ma Liang, a savage countryman in the countryside, without my brother's loyal advice, we have been preparing to choose another wise leader. If the general is willing to attack Xiangyang, my brother will definitely help you!"

Cai Zhong kept talking and took out the letter from Cao Ren to Sun Quan.

In that letter, Cao Ren called Sun Quan "His Highness of the King of Wu" and begged Sun Quan to help Cao take Jingzhou with the great affairs of the world.

Cao Ren explained the pros and cons to Sun Quan in an almost begging tone, saying that Liu Bei was a guest general under Sun Quan's command back then, but he always regarded himself as a member of the Han royal family. This person was someone Cao Wei must try his best to eliminate. After that, as long as Sun Quan no longer plots into the Central Plains, the Cao family would not compete with Sun Quan.

Even if the Sun and Cao families fought again, they would only be for their respective interests, and there would be no such deep hatred as changing dynasties.

No matter who wins and who loses, everyone is safe.

However, if an ambitious person like Liu Bei is not eliminated, I am afraid that both families will not be able to have a good life in the future. Please ask Sun Quan to think carefully.

Sun Quan's face was filled with a hint of pride.

His disastrous defeat at the city of Hefei and his subsequent submission to Cao Pi did indeed feel great pressure.

But now that the situation is reversed, Cao Pi actually came to pray for his help, which is undoubtedly a huge help to his status and reputation.

"It's easy to say." Sun Quan smiled and gently helped Cai Zhong up. "With General Cai's visit, our army will definitely win! I immediately rushed to attack Xiangyang, hoping to hunt Xiangyang with the general and seize the thief's heads together."

Cai Zhong said happily:

"Thank you, General, thank you."

Looking at Sun Quan's expression, he quickly whispered:

"This matter is of great importance. I am willing to stay as a qualifier. Please do not doubt it."

Sun Quan was originally planning to keep this person as a hostage, but since Cai Zhong took the initiative to talk about it, he still took the initiative to talk about it in front of so many people, Sun Quan could not respond.

He smiled and said:

"It's unreasonable. General Cai can trust Gu more than Gu, but Guer still trusts General Cai?"

As he said that, Sun Quan personally helped Cai Zhong up, put his shoulders on his side and let him sit beside him. He poured him a glass of wine with his own hands, and smiled sincerely:

"With the general here, how can a big thing not be accomplished? Come on, drink this cup!

The general came to report the news in person this time, which shows his sincerity towards Sun. Sun was willing to grant the general the title of General Pingxi and the prefect of Nanjun. I wonder what the general wanted?"

Cai Zhong said more:

"Wouldn't you be so heartless and swear to serve the King of Wu to the death?"

He broke free from Sun Quan, bowed to Sun Quan again, and swallowed even more:

"Since the King of Wu values ​​the small ones so much, the small ones should even tell a big thing for the King of Wu-

When I came to see King Wu, Sima Fu, the chief of the Yunshan Army, also sighed, saying that Cao Pi was useless and was not a destiny. He had long thought of changing his family, but he didn't know where to go!

I drank with him all night and became a brother of life and death. If the King of Wu was willing to take in this person, I would go and persuade him to give Fancheng directly to the King of Wu!"

"There is still this matter!" Sun Quan was overjoyed.

He had long heard of Sima Fu's reputation.

This person is Sima Yi's younger brother, and his talent is important. He is a big deal, greedy for military rations, and doing business, making a lot of money. Fancheng continues to have many people. The Yunshan Army soldiers who stayed in Fancheng are all wearing iron armor, and their food, clothing and consumption are rare in the world. They can be said to be a strong soldier.

Sun Quan had always wanted to recruit this person before, but the Sima family also wanted face. Sun Quan didn't know how to start, but Cai Zhong actually offered to recruit Sima Fu for Sun Quan, which really made Sun Quan overjoyed.

Lu Su nodded repeatedly and said happily:

"Can you really convince Sima Fu?"

Cai Zhong said more:

"Yes, Shuda knew that Yunshan was the one who was born after Guan Ping, but he was afraid of being plotted against Guan Yu, so he didn't dare to say more.

He was surrounded by powerful enemies on all sides and did not dare to move for a moment. He could only tell my brother quietly that he was going to return to the north.

Unexpectedly, Cao Ren was unable to attack Wancheng for a long time and was beaten by Huo Jun. Shuda sighed that this person was not the one who was destined to be, but he didn't know what the King of Wu was, so he told me to investigate.

The King of Wu was sincere to Xiao, which really touched Xiao, so how dare he not do his best?

As long as the King of Wu is willing, I will definitely take down Fancheng for the King of Wu and help the King of Wu achieve great things!"

Sun Quan laughed loudly, held Cai Zhong's palm and kept applauding, and repeatedly persuaded him to drink. The two of them were drunk.

It was unexpected that Sun Quan had made it so smooth.

After leaving Hefei, Tiandesity began to gradually move closer to him. It seems that the small town has sucked away his luck before.

It’s all Guan Ping’s guy, this must be Guan Ping’s guy and Zhuge Villageman set up a trap for me, it must be like this!

Sun Quan had a great time with Cai Zhong. On the second day, he gave Cai Zhong a large amount of brocade and beautiful jade and sent someone to escort Cai Zhong back.

The army that had been preparing to march towards Jiangling had also begun to turn around and go north against the Han River to attack Xiangyang.

Among the Wu army, Zhuge Jin, Yan Yan and others felt that this matter was not as smooth as they imagined. They persuaded Sun Quan not to rashly attack a strong city like Xiangyang. It would be better to leave Cai Zhong first and let Cai Maoxian lead the army to attack Le Jin and then make a decision.

When Sun Quan heard this, he was very unhappy and said in a deep voice:

"Why should Cai Mao move first? We brought heavy troops to Jingzhou to sweep the land of Jingxiang like Mount Tai. If we look forward to the front and back, we will let Cai Mao move first, how can we convince people?"

Zhuge Jin hesitated:

"Cai Mao is a capricious person. He said that he would not be able to hide the famous generals like Le Jin in a hundred battles.

Sima Fu and Yunshan had a very good relationship and refused to go against each other for so long. Before the person could see him, his family was in the north, so he said he would serve the supreme emperor. I thought... this matter was inappropriate."

"If Cai Mao and Sima Fu first launch troops to attack Xiangyang, our army then arrives and block Lejin in Xianshan. The morale of our soldiers will be high and they will definitely succeed in one fell swoop!"

Xiangyang is known as the iron wall, and it can only start attacking from the north, which is easy to have various problems.

When Sun Jian was strong, he was working hard to attack the capital from the north but failed. He was forced to choose to go to Xianshan, but he died in one battle.

Now Sun Quan has many soldiers and generals, and his strength is far above Sun Jian back then. Cole Jin's military ability is far above Liu Biao back then. There is Guan Yu who is eyeing him in the south. He is very worried that Sun Quan will fall into Cai Mao's trap.

If this failure is made, Sun Quan will inevitably suffer a devastating blow. He may directly rebel without the enemy attacking Jiangdong. Those of Jiangbei will have no place to stay.

He must be very cautious.

But Sun Quan obviously did not have Zhuge Jin's concerns like that.

With the support of Cai Mao and Sima Fu, he was full of confidence in taking over Xiangyang.

As long as he occupied Xiangyang City and Xinye in Jiangbei, he would take the absolute initiative, be able to negotiate peace with Liu Bei, and negotiate with Cao Pi to eliminate Liu Bei and dominate the south first.

He hesitated for a moment and shook his head and rejected Zhuge Jin:

"Sima Fu's family is all in the Central Plains, how could he always follow Yunshan?

Hey, he didn't know that Yunshan was Guan Ping before, but now that he knows, how could he follow such a martial artist?

Before Le Jin, it was just Yunshan and Ma Liang who deceived me. Now, seeing me coming with Mount Tai, Cai Mao and Sima Fu are coming together, how dare I fight with us?

At that time, just choose someone who is eloquent and can persuade you briefly, and Xiangyang is all in my hands.

The old thief Guan Yu had already retreated to Jiangling. He knew that even if he heard that we were attacking Xiangyang to rescue him, we would sit firmly in Fancheng and attack from north to south on the Han River, and would definitely kill Guan Yu and flee in panic, saving the labor force to attack Jiangling.

This matter is so wonderful, why should I push back and forth? I have decided, and I will immediately lead my army to Xiangyang without any mistakes!"

Zhuge Jin showed bitterness on his face. He knew that he could not persuade Sun Quan at all, so he could only turn his attention to Lu Su.

Lu Su thought Zhuge Jin's words were very reasonable, but he was the one who brought Cai Zhong to pay homage to Sun Quan before. At this point, he couldn't slap himself in the face, so he could only shake his head slowly.

"Don't worry, I'll wait to come to Fancheng to act according to the opportunity. If Sima Fu refuses to join our army, I'm going to make a decision.
