Since Sun Quan had made a decision, he did not drag his feet and directly sent an envoy to go north to pay tribute to Cao Pi, congratulating Cao Pi on becoming the emperor, and requesting that Jiangdong become a vassal of the Wei State.

After Cao Pi became emperor, he must also be wary of Sun Quan and Liu Bei joining forces to fight against rebellion.

Although Cao Cao and Sun Quan once joined forces to deal with Guan Yu, Cao Pi still did not trust Sun Quan, and paid great attention to his movements.

When Cao Pi saw that Sun Quan abandoned Liu Bei and chose to join him, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Cao Pi was very despised by Sun Quan's change of power, but he was still very happy on the surface.

Cao Pi immediately repaid his favor, gave Sun Quan Jiuxi, and conferred him the title of King of Wu, General, led the governor of Jingzhou, governed Jing, Yang, and the military affairs of the three states.

It was very worthwhile for Cao Pi to exchange for Sun Quan's recognition of his position as emperor.

Therefore, Cao Pi knew that Sun Quan was pretending to surrender, but he had to take it seriously.

After getting this result, Sun Quan was very happy. He had the title of legal rule over Jiangdong, so he calmed down and prepared to concentrate on dealing with Liu Bei.

Of course, it is not that simple to fight against Liu Bei’s attack!

It took Lu Meng only a few months to set up a secret son in Jiangling. Liu Bei was in Jiangling for many years and he had been in Jingzhou. If he had no backup plan, Sun Quan himself would not believe it.

Therefore, if you want to block Liu Bei's attack, it is not enough to simply use troops. Maintaining the stability of Jingzhou is the top priority.

Sun Quan himself is from an intelligence agency. Jia Hua, the intelligence leader under his command, came to report. Recently, Jingzhou is undercurrent, and it seems that many people are ready to cooperate with Liu Bei's attack on Jingzhou.

Especially the news that Jingnan was sent back, some families loyal to Liu Bei seemed to be mixed with the Wuling Man, and the situation in Jingnan was very tense.

Sun Quan has many capable officials, but if he wants to communicate with the Jingzhou family, he is undoubtedly a local local snake in Jingzhou, and the news is well-informed.

Therefore, Sun Quan would not waste the talent Pan Jun who invited him to make a show. He employed people without doubt and handed over the full responsibility of quelling the rebellion and stabilizing the situation in Jingzhou to Pan Jun for handling.

After Cao Pi became emperor, he was eager to realize his ambition to unify the mountains and rivers as soon as possible.

After Sun Quan became a vassal of Wei State, Cao Pi temporarily relaxed and focused on consolidating his regime.

Although Cao Pi knew that Sun Quan was probably surrendering and wanted to make himself a shield, he didn't take it seriously.

If Sun Quan wanted to pass a letter of surrender, he would ask Cao Pi to send troops to Hanzhong to deal with Liu Bei who had just become emperor, Cao Pi would definitely not agree.

Cao Pi expected that Liu Bei had not long been elected as emperor and needed to establish his authority, so he would definitely send troops first and pick a soft persimmon and pinch it.

Liu Bei did not have the confidence to attack Liangzhou and Guanzhong, and he could only send troops to Jingzhou to attack Sun Quan. Not only did he become famous in the army, but he also had a good chance of winning.

At this time, Cao Pi also assembled a large army in Wancheng, and it seemed that he wanted to really join forces with Sun Quan to deal with Liu Bei.

...

...

Liu Bei had always wanted to raise an army to fight against Sun Quan to avenge Guan Yu, but was persuaded by the seriously ill Fa Zheng.

After becoming emperor, Liu Bei's first thing was to propose to attack Sun Quan.

However, due to the opposition from many ministers led by Zhuge Liang, Liu Bei could not act alone and could only give up for the time being.

When Sun Quan surrendered to Cao Pi, the news that Cao Pi appointed Sun Quan as King of Wu came, Liu Bei could no longer bear it and immediately set off an army to fight in the east.

When Fa Zheng was critically ill, he was in a daze. He suddenly woke up and his mind was clear.

The Dharma is roughly versed in medical principles, and knows that this is a reflection of the light and your life will not last long.

It happened to meet Zhao Yun who came to visit the disease instead of Liu Bei. Fa Zheng knew that Zhao Yun was steady and deeply trusted by Liu Bei.

Fa Zheng has been thinking hard. Although he has not found a way to recover Jingzhou, he also saw that Xichuan and Jiangdong can only work together to fight against Cao to maintain it.

Therefore, Liu Bei could not raise an army to attack Sun Quan. He asked Zhao Yun. After his death, if Liu Bei insisted on attacking Sun Quan, he would definitely come forward to dissuade him. He even prepared his words for Zhao Yun.

Zhao Yun was moved by Fazheng's loyalty and righteousness, so he agreed to Fazheng's request.

After Liu Bei became emperor, he proposed to attack Sun Quan on the spot, but was persuaded by Zhuge Liang, and Zhao Yun did not say more.

"Be trusted by others and be loyal to others!"

Zhao Yun agreed to Fa Zheng, but naturally he would not go back on his word. When he heard Liu Bei's proposal to attack Sun Quan again, he stood up and dissuaded:

"The traitor was Cao Cao, not Sun Quan. Now Cao Pi usurped the Han Dynasty, and the gods and men were angry. Your Majesty can issue a wide range of manifestos in Guanzhong. Guanzhong was the place where Emperor Gaozu of Han was the Longxing, and people were thinking about the Han Dynasty. If Your Majesty leads his army to plan for Guanzhong, many counties can issue edicts and make decisions, and then station troops upstream of the Wei River to fight against evil and rebels, then the righteous men in Guandong must wrap food and ride horses to welcome the king's army. If Wei abandons Wei to attack Wu, how can they be resolved suddenly? If Cao Pi sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight, he will get the benefits of the fisherman. I hope Your Majesty will observe it."

Liu Bei replied:

"Sun Quan harmed my sworn brothers, and also accepted rebel generals such as Luo Fu Shiren and Mi Fang. This kind of revenge is not a gentleman! Besides, Sun Quan was against Cao Pi and accepted his title from King Wu. If I don't send troops to attack Sun Quan, where is the majesty of the Han Dynasty? I don't even dare to attack Sun Quan, so how can I talk about reviving the Han Dynasty?"

Zhao Yun did not give up, and then he brewed the words that Fa Zheng had prepared. After sorting out his thoughts, he continued to persuade:

"Lord, the hatred of the Han thieves is the Lord; the hatred of brothers is the Lord. I hope the Lord will put the world first."

Liu Bei replied:

"I will not avenge my brother. Even if I have a thousand miles of country, what is the most precious thing? Besides, Sun Quan's rebellion and his army is famous. I did not abolish the public because of personal gain!" So he did not listen to Zhao Yun's advice and ordered the rectification of the army and horses and prepared to attack Wu.

Liu Bei has experienced a long battle, but he will not fight a battle without confidence.

To avenge your brother, the participation of your third brother Zhang Fei is naturally indispensable.

Liu Bei moved Zhang Fei to the general of chariots and cavalry, led the lieutenant of the Siocai, was appointed as the Marquis of Xixiang, and was also the Pastoral of Langzhong. He also asked him to rectify his army and horses in Langzhong and prepare to participate in the Eastern Expedition. The envoy left with an imperial edict.

Liu Bei wanted to go to Yong'an in person. Before leaving, he remembered Ma Liang's arrangement in Jingnan, so he sent him to Wuxi Man again to persuade the barbarian king Shamoke to send troops to help.

The thousands of troops led by Xi Zhen and Fan Zhou have consumed a lot of military resources this year.

The emperor did not need hungry soldiers, so Liu Bei asked Ma Liang to bring gold, silver and jewelry to reward the Jingnan army on his behalf, and then asked them to start a riot in Jingnan to support each other.

When Zhang Fei was in Langzhong, he heard that Guan Yu was harmed by Eastern Wu, and he was sad and crying.

Whenever they have to send troops to avenge, the generals will continue to persuade them repeatedly. Only when they are drunk can they forget and be quiet for the time being.

But sometimes, Zhang Fei was angry when he was drunk. He was in the tent and under the tent, but there were offenders, and Zhang Fei personally whipped him. Zhang Fei was amazing in power, especially after drinking, and most soldiers whipped him to death on the spot.

All the generals under the tent were silent and quietly reported to Liu Bei to learn about it.

Liu Bei was compassionate to Zhang Fei's desire to take revenge and did not blame him. Instead, he sent a lot of fine wine.

Fortunately, the Xiahou family could hold on, so Zhang Fei had to take the time to get drunk for about ten days.
