Chapter 755: Zhou Yu Takes Order
Lu Ning thought in his heart that as long as he could talk about his brothers who had been with him for many years, the matter would be easier and the resistance would be much smaller. If he could not convince him, it would be really difficult. Of course, the Lord agreed to follow his brothers who had been with him for many years and could not implement this path in one day. He could only take his time and take ten years to fully implement it, which would be a very wrong thing.
Lu Ning said: "Gongjin, after returning, I want to ask you to help you travel to Jiangdong. I wonder if you are willing?"
Zhou Yu has been detained in Jinyang for several years and cannot do anything. He lives a very distressing life. Although he does not lack food or drink, his life is very good, even much better than when he was in Jiangdong. However, as an outstanding general, he cannot lead troops to fight on the battlefield, which is the most painful thing.
Although Lu Ning had invited Zhou Yu many times, he asked Zhou Yu to never untie his knot; in recent years, many ideas have been around Lu Ning, and they have also been affected to a certain extent; especially after Sun Ce had been in trouble, he also talked about a lot of knots.
Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Ning and saw a pair of sincere eyes, but he wanted Zhou Yu to agree immediately, but he still felt a little unwilling to do so.
Zhou Yu hesitated and said, "This is not very good!"
Lu Ning stared at Zhou Yu for a long time, and felt a little numb in his heart. Then he smiled slightly and said, "Do we forget all the things about Gongjin in the past? Everyone thinks that I am a butcher with blood on both hands, cruel and ruthless moves, and killing them all the time; I admit this, but it also depends on whom I was killing?"
Lu Ning did kill countless people in his life, and countless souls died under the butcher knife of Lu Ning's army. There were not tens of millions, but there were definitely millions. In particular, the Three Lights Policy implemented by Lu Ning made the scholars all over the world curse.
Guan Ning said: "Ziyi, you can't say that. The people you and your army killed are basically foreign barbarians. If you don't use such bloody killing methods, how can you solve the border problems of our Han for hundreds of years in one fell swoop? The Han also has a safe and balanced border environment in the surname. In the domestic war, unless those who commit unforgivable heinous crimes against the people will be killed, the rest will be basically left with a way out."
Lu Ning said lightly: "Gongjin, the world must be unified. This is the general trend and no one can stop it. Our army's next conquest is mainly overseas conquests, one is to advance west from the sea and east, and the other is to advance west on land. You have also arrived. You should consider yourself how to go in the future; you should also consider more for the people of Jiangdong and Sun Ce's family. If you send troops to Jiangdong, Sun Quan will definitely be held accountable for war crimes after the war, which will involve the prosperity of the Sun family."
Guan Ning said: "If Sun Quan does not surrender, it will only be a meaningless resistance and will not play any role. At most it will delay the speed of the army! In that case, it will definitely cause war to the people of Jiangdong. Once the war is over, Ziyi will want to let the Sun family live, but if the law is there, many people will hold him accountable. Even Ziyi can do nothing at that time. In our jurisdiction, the law is supreme and no one can change it. If you want to stop Gongjin from staying in Jinyang for many years, you should also understand it."
Zhou Yu knew in his heart that this was Lu Ning giving Sun Quan a chance, and also giving Sun's chance, and of course he was also giving himself a chance. Given the current situation, Sun Quan in Jiangdong could only surrender and know the way to go, otherwise there would be only one way to die. This is not a fight of the same level. Just like a fight between a child and an adult, the child has the chance to win.
Zhou Yu also knew that going to Jiangdong to convince Sun Quan was also considering his subsequent development. As long as he said he would surrender, he would make achievements and lay the foundation for Lu Ning's next appointment with a higher position. In the current situation, even if he didn't say he would report to Sun Quan himself, Lu Ning would be very confident that he would succeed. This is obvious.
Zhou Yu said: "Ziyi, if Sun Quan surrenders, how are you going to treat it?"
Zhou Yu also knew that the current situation could only gain greater benefits for the Sun family, so that the Sun family would not be affected by the devastation and ensure that the Sun family continued to continue; this was worthy of the dead Sun Ce, and it was also considered Zhou Yu's last assistance to the Sun family.
After hearing this, Lu Ning laughed and was very happy. Zhou Yu's words meant that the knot was completely untied and he could lead troops to fight in the future. It was a great regret for such an excellent talent as Zhou Yu. Now Zhou Yu is willing, that means that Lu Ning has another very outstanding general and talent under his command, which is also a blessing for the Han people and a blessing for the Chinese nation.
Lu Ning said: "Gongjin, as long as Sun Quan surrenders voluntarily, I will never make things difficult for Sun Quan, nor will I make things difficult for Sun, nor will I hurt Sun, and will let the Sun family continue to develop. Sun Quan and his family will definitely not stay in Jiangdong anymore. They must return to Jinyang to live. Sun Quan will give him an appropriate position, but they will not have great real power. Of course, it is definitely not possible to be a king or a marquis. The generals under my command who have made great achievements will not be a king or a marquis, and I will not be a king or an emperor myself. Besides, all the people and families who have been named king or a marquis seem to have no good destination or result. As for the civil and military officials under Sun Quan, they will definitely be properly placed, so there is no need to worry about this."
Zhou Yu also knew that Sun Quan and his family would definitely not be able to stay in Jiangdong now, and even anyone would deal with this in this way; Lu Ning was the same, of course, he would not continue to let Sun Quan stay in Jiangdong, as that would have great hidden dangers.
Zhou Yu said: "Ziyi, thank you!
Lu Ning said: "What do you thank? This is what you deserve."
After hearing this, Zhou Yu said, "Ziyi, after returning to Jinyang, I will immediately go to Jiangdong, hoping to convince Sun Quan to surrender."
Lu Ning smiled and said, "Gongjin, after you come back from Jiangdong, no matter what Sun Quan's attitude is, you will then go to the Xihai Sea to form the Xihai Fleet; then you will have to train an iron army to prepare for the subsequent conquest."
Of course, the West Sea is the Indian Ocean. If you want to continue to fight westward, it is necessary to form a powerful navy in the Indian Ocean; as long as you have a strong fleet or naval base in the Indian Ocean, it is the rear of the army when it fights westward, and it is even a supply base. The importance of this is unknown.
Guan Ning immediately said: "Gongjin, congratulations on joining our team, which will give our army another great commander."
Zhou Yu was also very happy. Lu Ning's statement means that he will have absolute military power in the future; and he will go to fight after training, which is definitely very exciting for Zhou Yu, who wants to realize his ambitions and show his talent.
People are the same, they all have aspirations, and they all want to show their own value. Whether it is ordinary people or great people, they all want their talents to be recognized and praised by the world; Zhou Yu is no exception. As long as the knot is resolved, everything will be easy to solve.
