632 , Zhou Yu's Stratagem
However, Sun Ce has the weakest strength and must have been kicked out of the game at the first time, and may even attract destruction.
Cao Cao, Liu Bei and Gongsun Zan are all stronger than Sun Ce, so they can naturally deal with Sun Ce easily. Especially Gongsun Zan, his territory, Guangling County, is next to Qu'a, separated by a river.
"In fact, Yuan Shu's existence is also beneficial to us."
Zhou Yu saw Sun Ce silent and knew that Sun Ce was thinking. He spoke again: "Although Yuan Shu is the weakest among the four, it is impossible for them to eliminate Yuan Shu in a short time. For us, we can take advantage of this time to defeat the rest of Yangzhou and consolidate it, so that we will have the confidence to compete with them in the future."
Sun Ce understood that Zhou Yu's meaning was to take advantage of Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Gongsun Zan to deal with Yuan Shu and compete for Shouchun. He took the opportunity to eat Yangzhou first.
"In Gongjin's opinion, what should we do now?"
After Sun Ce figured it out, he could only extinguish the idea of robbing Shouchun and conquering Yangzhou first.
Now, Liu Yao has fled to Yuzhang County. The six counties in Yangzhou are still left with Yuzhang County and Luling County in Liu Yao, Lujiang County, Wu County and Danyang County in Sun Ce. As for the last counties left, Kuaiji County, it is in Wang Lang.
Zhou Yu suggested: "Continue to attack Wang Lang."
"Don't you continue to attack Liu Yao?" Sun Ce asked in surprise. Sun Ce originally planned to continue to attack Liu Yao.
He was stopped twice before, which made Sun Ce very unhappy and also gave Liu Yao a chance to breathe. Sun Ce now has a very strong resentment towards Liu Yao. Sun Ce believes that as long as Liu Yao is taken away, Jiangdong will be able to breathe down. Without Liu Yao, the resistance will probably not be so great.
Zhou Yu shook his head and said, "No, Liu Yao is no longer afraid now. He is now seriously ill and his subordinates are in panic. At this time, we may backfire and let Liu Yao's subordinates unite and fight us. We do not attack Liu Yao, but send people to bribe Liu Yao's subordinates to recruit and decompose Liu Yao's forces."
"Attacking Kuaiji and dealing with Wang Lang, as long as you capture Kuaiji, you can do it in the future whether you are going west to deal with Liu Yao or attacking Liu Biao, so there will be no more checks and balances in the future."
Zhou Yu's purpose is to first stabilize the four counties of Jiangdong and become a stable rear in the future. As long as the rear is stable, no matter who you fight with in the future, you can be safe and stable without fear of a fire in the backyard.
"But what should I do if Wujun?" Sun Ce thought about it and asked again.
Yan Baihu, the largest in Wu County, was killed by Liu Xin, causing Wu County to form several forces of separatist control. Liu Yao entered Wu County by bribing these separatist powers to control Wu County.
Now Liu Yao was beaten away, and Wujun became Sun Ce's territory. Zou Lun, Qian Tong, Wang Sheng and other separatist forces did not fight against Sun Ce, but instead surrendered to Sun Ce. Sun Ce had to appease them for the stability of Wujun.
However, although Zou Lun, Qian Tong, Wang Sheng and others surrendered to Sun Ce on the surface, they were dissatisfied with secret actions. Sun Ce knew it was them, but he couldn't do anything to them. He had to swing a knife and cut them down, otherwise this would make Wujun and even other places disgusted with him and lose the hearts of the people.
Sun Ce was worried that when he led his troops to attack Kuaiji, these people would stab him in the back, which would cause great harm to him.
Zhou Yu smiled slightly about Sun Ce's concern, and he said confidently: "This matter is easy."
Seeing the smile on Da Zhouyu's face, Sun Ce was overjoyed. He knew that as a friend, as long as he showed such a smile on his face, there would be a solution.
He asked hurriedly, "Gongjin, stop keeping it aside, tell me quickly."
Zhou Yu asked, "Bofu, have you heard of Chen Yu?"
"Of course I heard that I sent someone to recruit people, but unfortunately he refused to come and vote." Sun Ce nodded and replied, Chen Yu was from Huaipu, Xia Pi, and the eldest son of Chen Qiu. After Chen Qiu was killed by eunuchs, Chen Yu fled back to Xia Pi with the help of other ministers. Later, Tao Qian appointed him as the prefect of Xuyi.
Zhou Yu said: "Although Chen Yu served as the prefect of Xuyi, he had always been ambitious. Gongsun Zan rebelled against Tao Qian. Although Chen Yu surrendered to Gongsun Zan on the surface, he secretly wanted to leave Gongsun Zan. I heard that Chen Yu had always been ambitious about Jiangdong."
After hearing this, Sun Ce slapped the table hard and said, "No wonder he refused to vote. It turns out that he had already had ambitions."
Zhou Yu continued: "In order to win over the hearts of the Xuzhou family, Gongsun Zan pretended to be invisible to a army in Chen Yu's hands, but he secretly mobilized troops to guard him. Gongsun Zan was powerful and Chen Yu could not resist. Unless he surrendered to Gongsun Zan, he had to find another way out."
Sun Ce's face was a little gloomy and said, "So, will he come to deal with me?"
Zhou Yu nodded and said, "That's right, Jiangdong was governed by Liu Yao in the past, but Chen Yu dared not. Now Bo Fu, you are young and have few soldiers. Chen Yu will definitely despise you. As long as you leave Wujun, I believe he will definitely send troops to attack."
"Damn it, I'll go and deal with him now."
