“Zi Jing Brother is dispatching troops to Yangzhou!” One youth said to another while the two drank together The one that spoke had two pupils in his eye like the late Xiang Yu1 He was also an outstanding person but his elder brother was evenhis achieveh Sun Quan has the symbol of the conqueror, his brother was the one that became the conqueror The title ‘Little Conqueror’ is not just for show Everybody knows about Sun Ce but only few people knew about Sun Quan
“Yangzhou?” The other youth, Lu Su, almost drop his wine cup when he heard this “Isn’t a war about to start at Jiangxia? Why does Marquis Wu want to start another war at Yangzhou? Are we going to stop fighting at Jiangxia?” Lu Su was reasonably astounded His job was to zhou have been deploying troops to fight at Jiangxia Evenchanneled to Jiangxia If there was going to be a fight at Yangzhou, it reezhou
Sun Quan who heard Lu Su’s words and shook his head “The situation at Jiangxia is no longer in Brother’s control!” Jiangdong and Jingzhou had aand just watch while Sun Ce dealt with Lu Bu Unfortunately, Han Dang and Huang Gai’s actions in retaking Sanjiangkou caused Liu Biao to feel betrayed Liu Biao launched a counterattack using that as a reasoning and Sun Ce had no choice but to brace himself That also meant that Sun Ce had no say as to whether they could stop the fight at Jiangxia
“This Zhuge Kongon” Lu Su codong Zhuge Liang had becoe However, just this is nothing zhou He could have obtained his post through favors The real reason why he is such a popular topic is because he is a forh with lareatly increased the a
Lu Su was interested in Zhuge Liang and at the sae with Zhuge Liang He also had Zhou Yu’s reco with Sun Ce Yet, he was defeated and captured He even had to be bought back by Zhang Zhao It was an extraordinary hu was able to control the situation at Jiangxia The longer the war is fought, the more inferior Lu Su would seeht tars?” Lu Su put aside his feelings of lament for that moment and asked about Sun Ce’s plans
“Yes” Sun Quan replied, causing Lu Su to frown
Declaring war on two sides could only be done if one has excess men and supplies Otherwise, they would only cause thezhouWhile Lu Su also wanted to defeat Liu Mang, he knew that Liu Mang was not a si Arroup Lu Su could not understand The Black Flag Ar Liu Mang instead Besides that, if Sun Ce were to take Yangzhou, Lu Bu would not stay idle
“Brother is going to Yangzhou because of Qin Feng at Linhuai”
“Linhuai? Sigh” Lu Su did not knoho Qin Feng was but he knew that Linhuai was the only territory they have left that is across the Yangtze River He too, would not dare to lose Linhuai If they lose Linhuai, advancing to the Central Plains would be significantly harder in the future
“Fortunately, Liu Mang would also be fighting tars!” Sun Quan explained
“H after Liu Bei killed his envoy!”
If Liu Mang were to also fight tars, then the situation could be salvaged Qin Feng still had a lot of troops and Tuzhong On the other hand, Liu BeiCavalry and have occupied total control of Nanyang
“Zhongmou Are you…?” Lu Su looked at his friend and asked Sun Ce’s decision had nothing to do with Sun Quan Sun Quan had no obligations With his brother and other powerful generals around, Sun Quan was an unnecessary surplus
“Zijing I ae where people are completely independent Yet, I have no place where I can stand independently! All this years I tell myself that it is obvious that my brother should be more formidable than me However, wouldn’t I also want to prove myself?”
“Hm?” Lu Su furrowed his brows He felt a certain passion and stubbornness in Sun Quan The reason why Lu Su served Sun Quan was because he knew that Sun Ce was not the Lord he wanted He also wished for Sun Quan to seize authority However, this is not possible as long as Sun Ce was around
