The Three Kingdoms

"This question, Lu Su, you answer him in the name of the cabinet!"

Sun Quan curled his lips and said lightly.

"Chief of Staff Xu, not only does he want to make peace, but we also want to make peace. Our Great Wu has no choice now. Your military can continue to fight, because even if the casualties are too heavy, you also have a group of recruits that have been reserved in recent years. Moreover, our Great Wu has the largest population, so we can recruit a group of young adults at any time, train for half a year, and then go to the battlefield, but you have to think about the cabinet, our cabinet will definitely not support any battle within two years!"

Lu Su looked serious, and said very firmly: "What our great Wu needs now is to recuperate, and we need to stabilize the results we have won. You must know that the cabinet has already been heavily in debt for the bloody battles last year. If we continue to fight In addition to the result of losing both sides, it will even drag down the cabinet's finances. In the end, it will only lead to increased taxation and hardship for the people. Trust, this is something we absolutely cannot tolerate!"

"Yuanzhi, the military and politics are not the same thing, but they are a family. No one can do without another. Standing in your position, you have considered the military very well, but you can't ignore the politics. So when it's time to make peace, you must and!"

Sun Quan looked at Xu Shu with anticipation.

Xu Shu was the first adviser to follow him.He has always done a good job, but he has been in the military for the past two years, and he is familiar with considering things from the military's perspective, so naturally he is not comprehensive enough.

As the head of the staff department, what he has to consider is not only the military's request, but the overall situation. He still has some shortcomings in this regard.In other words, I can't let go.

"Your Majesty. It's because I didn't think carefully!"

Xu Shu lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"Cao Mengde wants to save face now, so I will give it to him. He is actually a mad dog annoyed by me now. Once he becomes crazy, he has no reason. If there is a full-scale fight between Wu and Wei, he can choose to die together, but we are the ones who suffer. .We have the upper hand, advancing steadily step by step, we can swallow him, so I have to appease him, it can be regarded as giving us Da Wu a little time to breathe!"

Sun Quan's eyes became sharper: "The failure of the first battle of Luoyang means that we cannot form a unity in a short period of time. The battle between Wu and Wei will be a long-lasting battle. The competition between us is not only Whether it is the army or the national power, Great Wu must maintain a stable foundation, so we can propose a peace agreement. Do you understand?"

"Your Majesty, I understand your concerns. If we propose a peace first, we will admit defeat. Will this damage the morale of our army?"

When Xu Shu heard this, he was a little worried: "General Gan Ning's bones are still not cold, and it is time to discuss peace. I am afraid that the soldiers will have resentment!"

Gan Ning's death in Guanzhong had a great impact on the morale of the Wu army. At this time, the peace talks will definitely be dissatisfied.

"How much will affect it!"

Sun Quan is also aware of this, but he really can't go on in such a stalemate with Cao Wei now. Great Wu needs time to digest the achievements of the land of Bashu, and it also takes time to stabilize the situation, and it also takes time to create a sharp weapon that will set the world.

As long as this period of time has passed, the victory will belong to Da Wu.

At this time, peace negotiations are a certainty.

"However, the impact will not be great. After the peace talks, I will deal with this issue. The third military system reform that the Chief of Staff has been preparing has been taking advantage of this opportunity to complete the latest system implementation!" Sun Quan said.

"promise!"

Xu Shu nodded.

When the Great Wu Reform came, Wu Jun’s system was brand new, and it was like crossing the river by feeling the stones, constantly improving and improving, and went through a total of two military reforms, one large and one small.

However, the military system has always been somewhat flawed. The Military Aircraft Department has already prepared for the third reform of the military system. In addition to the establishment of the eighth battalion, this aspect has already been put on the agenda.

"Your Majesty, who will complete the peace negotiation?"

Lu Su asked suddenly.

"Leave it to the Ministry of Rites to do it!"

Sun Quan thought for a while and said, "However, we also need to send an influential person as the peace negotiator, and someone with a tougher style. We negotiate peace, not seek peace!"

"Your Majesty said so, but I think of someone!"

Lu Su's eyes lit up.

"Say!"

"Shangshu of the Ministry of War, how about Duke Jiang?"

"You're such a good choice. Sun Bofu's mood is not very good at all. If you let him go to negotiate a peace, are you going to let him explode right away?"

Sun Quan gasped, and looked at Lu Su with surprise in his amber eyes.

Sun Ce had a broken arm, and he wanted to avenge his shame. He wanted to continue the fight and turn the world upside down. At this time, letting Sun Ce be the peace negotiator, wouldn't it mean that the peace negotiation was disturbed?

"Your Majesty, Jiang Guogong is the best candidate. We can show Great Wu's sincerity. After all, he is His Majesty's elder brother, Great Wu Emperor Brother. There are very few people who can represent His Majesty's identity. One more thing, Jiang Guogong has a bad temper, which is fine." The most important thing is to give Cao Wei a disarm, Jiang Guogong is unwilling to negotiate a peace, he only negotiated it out of helplessness, I believe Cao Wei will also realize this, at least it can force Cao Wei to put down value on the peace negotiation table!"

Lu Su's expression was calm, and he said calmly, "Although our Great Wu proposed peace, in fact, the one who wants to make peace most now is definitely Cao Wei."

"Hearing what you said, it makes sense!"

Sun Quan waved his hand: "Okay, you can talk to Sun Bofu about this!"

"I'll go? Your Majesty, this..."

When Lu Su heard this, his face suddenly turned pale.

"Hehehe, Master Lu, this is a wonderful job!"

Xu Shu said gloatingly.

"Your Majesty, you should spare me, I'm afraid that my weak bones won't be able to survive Jiang Guogong's roar!" Lu Su said dejectedly.

"Co-author, you are planning to let me talk to Sun Bofu!"

Sun Quan narrowed his amber eyes, pointed at himself, and said, "You brought up this fire pit yourself. If you don't jump yourself, I will dance for you. You are really my loyal minister!"

"Your Majesty has won the prize!"

Lu Su replied without shame: "I want to be loyal!"

"roll!"

Sun Quan gave him an annoyed look, and didn't bother to argue with him about this matter, he flipped through several memorials on the desk and asked, "Zijing, how are the people in Bashu counties doing now? "

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the two counties of Bashu have stabilized now!"

Lu Su entered the state of work report: "However, Hanzhong has a big problem. The Tianshi League has too much influence on the local people. Although Zuo Ci Guoshi has established Taoism, captured the leader of the Five Dou Rice Sect, and disintegrated the Tianshi League influence, but the number of members of the Five Dou Rice Sect is too large, most of them are ordinary people, and most of them are in Hanzhong, and it will not stabilize within three to five years!"

"Then take it step by step. Don't be too hasty. Faith is a very troublesome thing. For a person, destroying his spirit is more difficult than beheading his body. There will definitely be some confusion in this regard. You have to grasp One degree, it should be killed and not kept, but it should not be killed, and you should not commit more crimes. This matter is also a test for you. Whether you are doing well or not, the cabinet is watching. Kuai Liang is about to retreat. Many people are staring at the second assistant position!"

Sun Quan said in a deep voice.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Lu Su's eyes were bright and bright. Although he entered the cabinet, his ranking as a cabinet minister was not high, and he had no shortage of round qualifications, but he lacked a little political achievement. This is the best opportunity.To be continued.

"By the way, I want to know how the battle in the south of Yizhou is going. Why hasn't there been any news after so long?" Sun Quan was reviewing the memorial on the book case, and complained casually: "Xu Isn't Sheng's action a bit too procrastinated?"

As soon as the Western Expedition came, three groups of troops entered Yizhou at the same time, mainly fighting in the north. However, Bashu has been stable for several months now, but Xu Sheng has not yet solved the Nanman.
