Three Kingdoms: Liu Daer Was Forced Out of the Mountain at the Beginning

At this time, Wu County, Jiangdong.

It took Sun Quan a full month to restore Chao Gang, who had been disrupted by Yu Ji's control before.

The ministers finally woke up, and the lord seemed to be normal now.

This made the people and officials throughout Jiangdong breathe a sigh of relief.

"Zijing, you said before that Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang had been to Soochow?"

At this time, Sun Quan and Lu Su were sitting together drinking tea and said in a deep voice.

Lu Su couldn't help but sigh quietly:

"My lord, you finally woke up."

"Some time ago, these two people did come to Soochow, but the master wanted to kill them. Fortunately, the master did not do so."

"Otherwise, the Sun-Liu Alliance will inevitably dissipate."

"With Cao Cao's current power, if he wants to attack any of us, it will be easy."

"The best strategy is for our two families to unite and slowly resist Cao Cao's invasion."

Although Lu Su saw that Sun Quan seemed to have regained consciousness, he still cautiously probed.

After all, Sun Quan had killed three old officials of Soochow before, which had almost caused the entire Jiangdong to collapse.

Fortunately, Sun Quan finally solved this matter properly through checks and balances.

Otherwise, even now, Jiangdong may not be able to recover.

After all, the entire Jiangdong is composed of major clans.

Once one party collapses and cannot be checked and balanced, the consequences will be huge and tragic.

Once the clan no longer obeys the Sun family's orders, the entire Jiangdong will become what it was before Sun Jian unified Jiangdong.

The major clans are fighting each other, and the people of Jiangdong are in dire straits.

At that time, Lu Su followed Zhou Yu's plan and followed Sun Ce in revolt, just to stop Jiangdong from being so vicious.

Sun Quan frowned and said:

"Speaking of which, it's all thanks to Zijing."

"If it weren't for Zijing, I would have made a big mistake!"

"On behalf of the entire people of Jiangdong, I would like to propose a toast!"

After saying that, Sun Quan drank the tea in front of him in one gulp.

Sun Quan didn't like drinking, mainly because of his health and was very resistant to alcohol.

Lu Su knew this very well. He quickly stood up and said:

"My lord, you must not do this!"

"I only had no choice but to take this step."

"Today, my lord let Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong go privately without asking the guilty minister. I am already panic-stricken."

"My lord, please don't say that."

Sun Quan chuckled and said:

"Zijing is a kind person after all."

"But what did these two people say?"

Lu Su said respectfully:

"These two people are here to find a way out for me, Jiangdong, and Liu Beijun."

"Oh? A way out?"

Sun Quan had no idea what happened in those days. Hearing what Lu Su said, he couldn't help but become curious.

Lu Su nodded heavily:

"Yes, that's the way back."

"The escape route is to march to the south, defeat the foreign races in the south, and leave the only escape route for us."

"Then Cao Cao is now at the height of his power. I heard that he has found some fairy grain seeds. Now the food supply in the prefectures and counties under Cao Cao's command has increased dramatically."

"In this case, our advantage of Jiangdong and Jingzhou having vast territory and abundant resources will no longer exist."

"Judging from the number of prefectures and counties under Cao Cao and the strength of the army, even if the two families join forces, they may not be able to resist."

"So, Zhuge Liang came up with this trick."

After hearing Lu Su's words, Sun Quan reacted and couldn't help but frowned slightly and said:

"I see."

"What Zhuge Liang means is to attack foreign tribes, capture territory outside the Central Plains, and then expand the territory to compete with Cao's army?"

"Even if we lose, can we withdraw from the Central Plains and recharge our batteries?"

I have to say that as the current monarch of Jiangdong, Sun Quan is still very rational.

He could guess this immediately just by hearing what Lu Su conveyed to Zhuge Liang.

Lu Su smiled and said:

"That's what it means."

"I have been thinking about it privately for a long time. If we do this, it will be of great benefit to me, Jiangdong!"

"Now Cao Cao seems to be recharging his strength. He is like a turtle shrinking its shell and never sends out troops. He has not made any big moves."

"So, we absolutely can't wait with him. If that's the case, it's like sitting back and waiting to die."

"Therefore, this plan can be used!"

Sun Quan rubbed his chin, thought for a moment and then said:

"Zijing's words make sense."

"In that case, I won't wait any longer."

"Starting from tomorrow, gather our Jiangdong navy and go all the way south, starting from Shanyue!"

Lu Su suddenly said excitedly:

"My lord understands the righteousness! I will make arrangements immediately!"

After all, although it was Sun Quan who made the decision, Lu Su was still the governor of Jiangdong.

Lu Su still had to do this himself.

Nowadays, most of the major generals in Jiangdong are still in Jiangdong, except for Lu Xun and Lu Meng, who were sent to the north of Jingzhou to support Liu Bei and prevent Cao Cao from raiding.

Moreover, they are all distributed in major states and counties, constantly training soldiers and horses.

Raise an army for a thousand days, use it for a while.

Now it's time to go.

Moreover, Sun Quan's decision was also very rational.

Attacking Shankoshi is the simplest and most effective, and it has the highest benefit for Jiangdong.

Shanyue is a tribe located in the south-east direction of Jiangxi.

They are not ordinary aliens. They are very powerful and occupy most of the mountain ranges all year round.

However, there is very little land that can be planted in the mountains, and their population is so large that they cannot keep up with the food supply.

As a result, they would go down the mountain from time to time to burn, kill, and loot, committing all kinds of evil.

Yuzhang and other places closest to Shanyue are suffering unspeakably.

Taishi Ci, the prefect, sent troops to fight Shanyue in successive years.

However, Shankoshi's attack area is so wide that no one can guess where they will focus on next.

Although Taishi Ci had many soldiers and horses, he was unable to confront Shanyue like this.

Therefore, the people of Yuzhang can be said to be miserable.

Capturing Shanyue will not only protect Yuzhang, but also benefit the entire Jiangdong.

After all, the wandering Shanyue people not only attacked Yuzhang, but sometimes also bypassed Yuzhang to plunder people in other villages.

It can be said that Shanyue is the Huns in the south.

They treated the Central Plains people extremely cruelly. They not only robbed people of money and food, but also robbed women and killed children.

However, Sun Quan struggled to capture Shanyue due to his confrontation with Cao Cao.

Now that Cao Cao is silent, he can just take this opportunity to capture Shan Yue in one fell swoop.

Solve this major problem entrenched in Jiangdong.

After Lu Su briefly listened to Sun Quan's explanation, he hurriedly set off.

However, it still takes a certain amount of time for Jiangdong to gather troops.

Moreover, attacking Shanyue requires more than just sending troops blindly.

After all, the Shanyue people have rich combat experience and are extremely cunning.

Once they escape into the mountains, they will be very difficult to deal with.
