Reborn in the Three Kingdoms, I stole Liu Bei's uncle

Guo Jia smiled faintly. From the conversation just now, he had clearly felt that Lu Su was a man of considerable talent and learning. He did have unique insights into the general situation, but compared with himself, he was still a little behind in the details.

Guo Jia was very proud, and his outstanding talent was the source of his pride.

“Zi Jing, Sun Ce is extremely brave and has many elite soldiers under his command, but Zi Jing, don’t forget that it is precisely because of his bravery that Sun Ce has become careless and unprepared.

He loved hunting and often took several people into the dense forest.

How can you last long if you are surrounded by powerful enemies and don't take precautions?

If my prediction is correct, it won’t be long before Sun Ce will die at the hands of a villain.”

When Lu Su heard this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead. Lu Su had also heard that Sun Ce loved hunting.

He can capture a tiger and a bear alone. In terms of bravery, no one can match him.

However, if this information was used by someone with ulterior motives to ambush in the forest in advance, no matter how many people were needed, there would be a chance to kill Sun Ce.

The most terrifying thing in this world is not wild beasts, but the human heart.

"Feng Xiao is right. Now it seems that I was too shallow. I will write a letter to Gong Jin to explain the pros and cons of this matter."

"Zijing, Gongjin is a great talent of the time, and he must understand the dangers involved, but don't forget. Sometimes, the only thing that can make people turn back is setbacks." Liu Yu took over the conversation and said slowly.

Such things are common, both in past lives and in this life.

When Yuan Shu proclaimed himself emperor, some of his advisers tried to dissuade him, but unfortunately he did not listen. When Jiujiang City was broken, Yuan Shu was lying on his bed dying. He must have been very regretful.

Becoming famous at a young age, being the center of attention, holding a high position of power and influence, and having everyone to respond to his calls, how majestic and courageous is that?

Carrying the infamy, being despised by everyone, suffering from old age and illness, and being deserted by friends and relatives, how miserable and desolate he is!

But if Yuan Shu were allowed to make the same choice again ten thousand times, the final result would probably be the same.

He will become emperor and create a foundation that will last for eternity.

Lu Su was silent for a moment and expressed his agreement with Liu Yu's opinion.

"Uncle Liu's words are enlightening and make us think deeply. But the Sun family has produced many talented people. I heard that although Sun Zhongmou is young, he already has the spirit of a great leader."

Lu Su’s meaning was very clear. Even if Sun Ce fell, there would still be someone in the Sun family who could take up the banner.

As long as someone can take up the banner, Yangzhou's development will not stop.

From these words, we can see that Lu Su put a lot of effort into defecting to Yangzhou. He not only evaluated Sun Ce, but even the young Sun Quan was within his consideration.

"Sun Quan is not as good as Sun Ce in military strategy, but he is better at domestic affairs. If Jiangdong was stable and there was no war, Sun Quan might be able to hold on. But now? The situation has completely changed. Yangzhou will not be a stable place, but will become a place of war on all sides.

If I deploy troops in Jiujiang, we can take Danyang. If Liu Jingsheng deploys troops in Jingzhou, we can take Lujiang. If Liu Jingsheng and I are watching closely, how can Yangzhou be stable? "

"I don't agree with what the emperor's uncle said. Lü Bu occupied Xuzhou and Cao Cao occupied Yanzhou. These two were heroes at that time. If my guess is correct, the next step for Emperor Liu will be to conquer these two places, and then fight for the world with Yuan Shao of Jizhou. Compared with Sun Ce, these three are the biggest worries of the emperor's uncle. The emperor's uncle is a hero of the time, with far-sightedness, how can he not understand the reason?

As for Liu Biao, he is old and has no ambition. He is a stubborn thief. He cannot even escape. How can he attack Lujiang without any reason? "

Liu Yu drank a cup of tea and smiled faintly.

"Zijing's words make sense. I will not send troops in the short term. But Liu Biao may not agree. After Yuan Shu's death, Nanyang County surrendered without a fight. Now I have sent people to occupy Nanyang County. If I give Nanyang County to Liu Biao and let him take Lujiang with his troops in exchange for me, do you think he will agree?"

Exchange with Nanyang County?

Lu Su was a little surprised. Nanyang County originally belonged to Jingzhou. After it was occupied by Yuan Shu, Liu Biao tried many times to take back Nanyang County, but Yuan Shu's power was too great, so he had to give up.

Nanyang County was the birthplace of Emperor Guangwu. It had a strategic location, a large population, and abundant grain. It was one of the most important places in the Han Dynasty.

Exchanging such a county for Lujiang County is like exchanging beautiful jade for stone. How could Liu Biao not agree?

Once Liu Biao sent troops to attack Lujiang, the conflict between him and Sun Ce would be reignited.

The revenge for his father's murder in the past and the hatred for Lujiang today will make Sun Ce point his spearhead at Liu Biao.

Lu Su could foresee that once the two sides went to war, there would never be peace in Yangzhou again.

If Liu Huangshu really did this, the only one who could stop him was Liu Biao. Although he was old and no longer ambitious, he conquered Jingzhou on his own when he was young, so he was definitely not an ordinary person.

"Uncle's plan is really vicious, but I think he underestimated Liu Biao. Once Liu Biao sends out his troops, there will be endless fighting. How could Liu Biao not see the interests involved?"

"Although Liu Biao is old, he is also a fierce tiger. When he entered Jingzhou alone, bandits were rampant and the roads were blocked. He contacted the noble families and brought peace to Jingzhou in just a few years. How dare I underestimate such a hero? It is precisely because I dare not underestimate him that I know that if he offers Nanyang County as a gift, he will definitely send troops."

"Please give me some advice, Uncle Emperor."

"Who killed General Sun Wentai? Zi Jing, you know that, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Su had completely understood Liu Yu's intention. Liu Biao had killed Sun Ce's father.

When Sun Ce was under Yuan Shu's command, Liu Biao might not care. But once Sun Ce became stronger day by day, how could Liu Biao not worry?

Perhaps even if Liu Biao had not given away Nanyang County, he might have started to plot against Yangzhou.

"Uncle Liu is so good at calculating people's hearts that I really admire him."

"Zi Jing, we have been discussing this just now because we want to recruit you, a wise man. What do you think?"

"Uncle Emperor knows that Zhou Gongjin is my best friend. I was planning to go to him, but your sudden visit has made it difficult for me to make a decision. Please allow me to think about it for a few days."

Liu Yu was prepared for Lu Su's rejection. He smiled faintly and said, "Zijing, just think about it slowly. I have heard that Dongcheng County has beautiful scenery. I want to take advantage of this time to travel around."

As they were all smart men, Lu Su naturally understood what Liu Yu meant. How many scenic spots could a small Dongcheng County have that could attract Emperor Liu to come and visit?

Is Liu Huangshu waiting for his decision?

This matter made Lu Su somewhat embarrassed. Before Liu Yu appeared, he had decided to go to Zhou Yu for help.

The appearance of Liu Yu disrupted his plans. Now he is very confused and doesn’t know what to choose?
