Three Kingdoms: Hegemony System

On this night, Liu Jue held a banquet in the Zhennan General's Mansion, and the banquet was attended by confidants such as Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, as well as Cai Mao, Kuai Yue and other people who looked like they were detached, which was considered to have given Lu Su enough face.

In the evening, Lu Su returned to the room arranged by Liu Jue, thinking carefully about everything that happened today, and gradually had some realization in his eyes.

During the day, I heard Liu Jue say that he would either surrender to Cao Cao or retreat to the Yangtze River, which made Lu Su lose his square inch, and now I think of what Liu Jue said, it should have been deliberately said to him.

Lu Su felt that Liu Jue said this because he had seen through Jiangdong's thoughts, and he was secretly reminding him that Jiangdong wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but he was afraid that it would not be so easy.

But Lu Su still didn't believe that Liu Jue would give up Xiangfan in vain, lose Xiangyang and Fancheng, and Jiangling in the south would not be able to keep it, even if he could rely on the Yangtze River to defend it, he would only be a remote prince.

Without Xiangfan, the road to the Central Plains in the north will be lost, and without Jiangling, there will be no gate to Yizhou in the west.

Although Lu Su didn't believe it very much, he couldn't despise Liu Jue's words, now Liu Bei is a dying person and has been excluded by him, and now only Jingzhou and Jiangdong are left to resist Cao Cao.

So Liu Jue's attitude is very important.

According to Lu Su's understanding of Liu Jue, this person has a strong personality, and in some aspects, like Sun Ce, he is unwilling to suffer a loss.

As the saying goes, being strong will end in self-denial, Sun Ce has already killed himself, but Liu Jue is still alive, if he really provokes this person, who knows what he will do.

Thinking of this, Lu Su couldn't help but smile bitterly, Jiangdong originally wanted to make a profit, but he never thought that in the end, Liu Jue took the initiative.

Although he was a little unwilling, but this is the case, if Liu Jue really fell to Cao Cao, or really retreated to the Yangtze River, it would not be a good thing for Jiangdong.

How could someone who could defeat Cao Ren and Zhou Yu be stupid? Besides, with the assistance of Wolong and Phoenix, Jiang Dong's mind had already been seen through.

Since Lu Su felt that it was impossible for Liu Jue to give up Xiangfan, he would definitely propose an alliance with Jiangdong, and even ask to send troops to resist Cao's army.

Anyway, he won't let Jiangdong watch the play on the sidelines.

Lu Su couldn't help but sigh, and waited for tomorrow to negotiate directly, ask Liu Jue's plans, and see how he could expand his interests and let Jiangdong get more benefits.

It's just that this alliance must be temporary, and when Cao Cao is repulsed, the two sides will still be the same as before, Liu Jue is a big threat to Jiangdong, and sooner or later it will be eliminated.

Lu Su didn't sleep well that night, and the next day, after he had breakfast in the morning, he immediately went to visit Liu Jue, and this time everything was settled.

After waiting for half an hour, Lu Su finally saw Liu Jue, and saw Liu Jue's relaxed face, as if Cao Cao's army in the north did not exist for him.

Liu Jue sat on the main seat and said to Lu Su with a smile: "Zijing came early in the morning, could it be that he came to resign?"

It's still early in the morning, it's all three poles, okay!

Fortunately, Lu Su understood Liu Jue, and immediately just smiled helplessly, understanding that the real confrontation had only officially begun now.

"The general laughed!"

Lu Su arched his hand and said: "Yesterday, the general said that if Cao Cao's army came, he would either surrender directly or retreat to the Yangtze River. "

Liu Jue nodded and said: "What Zijing said makes sense, Cao Jun is still repairing in Wancheng, and the fire has not yet burned, how can it take a month for his hundreds of thousands of troops to arrive in Xiangyang, so don't worry too much for the time being." When Cao Cao's army comes, I will just run when the time comes. "

Lu Su was speechless for a moment, why didn't this person play cards according to common sense?

Lu Su had to smile bitterly and said: "This time Cao Cao went south, it must be to take Jingzhou and Jiangdong, at this time of crisis, we should work together to keep Cao Cao out of Xiangfan, the general is a young hero, it is really unwise to give up Xiangfan in vain." "

"What Zijing said makes sense. "

Liu Jue nodded, then changed his words and said, "But what good will it do me to defend Fancheng in Xiangyang? Even if I block Cao Cao, it will only be a confrontation with Cao Cao, and in the end, I will still lose both." "

Lu Su arched his hand and said: "The general can rest assured that Jiangdong will fund grain and grass at that time, and wave flags and shout on the side to help the general defend Xiangyang Fancheng." "

"Just give me some food and grass, and wave the flag and shout for me!"

Liu Jue sneered again and again, and said, "When the time comes, it's good if you don't stab me in the back." What are you thinking about in Jiangdong, I really think that my heart is not clear, you just want me to block Cao Cao, and then I can sit and watch the mountain tiger fight, and wait until Cao Cao and I are both defeated, and then you will reap the benefits of the fisherman. "

These words were like knives, right in Lu Su's heart, and all the thoughts of the Jiangdong ministers were dissected and put on the bright side.

In fact, this is also the case, not only Sun Quan thinks so, but also Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu and others think so, but now they are ruthlessly exposed by Liu Jue.

Lu Su's face changed slightly, he didn't expect Liu Jue to be so aggressive and not act according to common sense.

Lu Su was a little embarrassed now, and after thinking about it in his heart for a moment, he said ambiguously: "Now that the world is in chaos, the heroes are divided, and it is normal for everyone to plan for themselves. "

This is tantamount to admission in disguise.

Liu Jue smiled and said, "That's right! Defending Xiangfan now is not good for me, it is better to retreat to the Yangtze River, and it can be regarded as planning for myself." "

Lu Su had to take a step back and said: "General, please rest assured, when the time comes, our two families can form an alliance, and when the general is dealing with Cao's army, we will also open up a battlefield in Hefei, so that Cao Cao can't take care of each other." "

Liu Jue smiled faintly: "It's too early to talk about the alliance between the two families, let's talk about it for a while." It's just that I have a sentence here, Zijing went back and told Sun Quan, if he Sun Quan is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, if he just wants to make a profit, it's a big deal that I surrender to Cao Cao, and everyone will be finished together. "

Lu Su couldn't help shedding a few drops of cold sweat when he heard this, but he didn't believe it in his heart, and said: "Isn't the general intimidating me?" The general captured Cao Ren alive before, and then defeated the tiger and leopard cavalry, and also captured Cao Chun. "

Liu Jue looked up to the sky and smiled, and said: "When Zhang Xiu was in Wancheng back then, because of his aunt Zou, he rebelled against Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao's eldest son Cao Ang, the general Dian Wei, and his nephew Cao Anmin all died, aren't they alive and well now?"

"I gave up Jingzhou to Cao Cao, so that Cao Cao saved a lot of effort, he was too late to be happy, how could he attack me? "

Lu Su took a deep breath, looked up at Liu Jue's eyes, and with the words just now, he finally Liu Jue was not threatening, if Sun Quan wanted to watch from the wall, he really dared to do so.

Lu Su couldn't help but smile bitterly, he knew a little more about Liu Jue, now Jingzhou is bearing the brunt, Liu Jue should have tried his best to find allies, but in turn threatened Jiangdong.

This momentum of breaking the net is not seen in Sun Quan, and he can't learn it in his life.

Lu Su sighed and said, "Don't worry, if the two families form an alliance, Marquis Wu will definitely send troops to help the general guard Xiangfan." "

Liu Jue smiled slightly: "The matter of forming an alliance is imperative, but it is not time yet, and it will not be too late when Cao Cao's soldiers come to Xiangfan." "

These words made Lu Su stunned, now that Cao Jun is in Wancheng, the time is already very urgent, if he doesn't take advantage of the time to form an alliance, does Liu Jue still want to sell at a price?

Could it be that Liu Jue really wants to give up Xiangfan and rely on the Yangtze River to resist Cao Jun?

Lu Su couldn't believe it!
