The war situation in Kuaiji County was deteriorating and Sun Jing was unable to curb. Many soldiers fled. The powerful Zongshuai and Shanyue Zongshuai became tough and gained the upper hand after repeated attacks.

Only Shanyin County, guarded by Yu Fan, the magistrate of Shanyin County, is still under the control of Sun Wu forces, and the rest of the places have fallen.

The battle situation in Danyang County was slightly better, and it was entirely up to Huang Gai. Han was the two veterans to support the situation, but the situation would not be too good. The two armies were still in a stalemate in the confrontation.

On the other hand, Yuzhang County basically had no Wu army resistance. The powerful people from all over the country supported themselves to defend themselves, and the mountains and rivers were spread out to occupy the county town. Yuzhang County had actually stopped obeying the orders of the Wu Kingdom.

The Luling County, which was established by Sun Ce in part of Yuzhang County, was not good. Although under the leadership of Sun Fu, the prefect of Sun Wu clan, Luling County had some troops and horses to protect several county towns, after Sun Fu learned of the news of Sun Ce's death, he was very desperate and did not believe that Sun Quan could stabilize the situation.

Because Luling County and the core area of ​​Sun Wu were too far away, the way back was cut off by local tyrants and Shanyue forces. He couldn't even go back to Wu County, so he was completely disappointed.

Under such circumstances, Sun Fu wrote a letter of surrender and sent someone to cross the river to Xu Huang, so that Xu Huang could find out that Sun Fu planned to surrender to Duke Wei Guo Peng with Luling County, and asked Duke Wei to accept it, and sent troops to Luling County to pick him up. He was trapped by the powerful Shanyue forces.

Sun Fu is a very important figure in this great wave of escape north, because he is a member of the Sun Wu royal family, and under him, many people also fled north together.

Since Sun Ce's death, people from the Sun Wu regime have been constantly surrendering to Guangling County, Jiujiang County and Lujiang County. They brought a lot of information and various rumors. After Zhang Liao learned about it, he arranged them to Hefei, Jiujiang County for inquiry.

Those who are asked can be accepted by inquiry and live in Jiangbei. If they cannot pass inquiry, they will be considered as detailed work and must be subject to further investigation.

Zhang Liao was worried that the Sun Wu regime would be mixed with the sand in this group, so he joined forces with the Jiujiang prefect Mao Jie to identify them and asked for a lot of important information, including naturally the news of Sun Ce's death and Sun Quan's ascension.

While Jia Xu was operating and spread to the south bank of the Yangtze River, this news was also sent to Guanzhong by Jia Xu and made it known to Guo Peng.

When Guo Peng knew about it, it was already after the New Year. At the beginning of the first lunar month of the sixth year of Xingping, Guo Peng learned about Sun Ce's death and Sun Quan ascended the throne in Chang'an.

"The lion is dead."

Guo Peng sighed and told the news to the civil and military officials under his command, with regrets in his words.

When many civil and military officials and generals were very happy to learn that Sun Ce was dead, they felt that there was no threat in the Southeast. Guo Peng could be assured to handle government affairs in Guanzhong, calmly without having to race against time, so he could be more relaxed.

Of course, Guo Peng thought so too.

In the case of Jiangdong, even if he doesn't mix sand at all, he will not be able to pacify Jiangdong for two years, let alone he is still mixing sand at the moment, causing trouble and unhappiness for him.

Sun Quan is still young and has talent, but under such circumstances, Sun Quan does not have the harmony of the times and people. Can he promote the localization of the Jiangdong regime and settle down in a firm position like in another time and space?

Will the scholars and powerful people in Jiangdong accept the localization of the Sun Wu regime?

It's no longer possible.

The Sun Wu regime either collapsed or walked Sun Ce's path again, and did even more ruthlessly than Sun Ce, which was almost the same.

However, if they want to do this, unless they are super gods together and kill the troubled Jiangdong heroes and Shan Yue together like divine weapons coming from the sky, they will be the ones who are destroyed.

As soon as Sun Ce was defeated, he defeated all the strength accumulated by the Sun Wu regime in several years.

From the perspectives of population, troops, resources, etc., the strength of the Sun Wu regime is no longer as strong as that of the local tyrants in Jiangdong and Shanyue.

The only thing that can be relied on is that the powerful people do not have a unified order, and Shanyue does not have a unified order. They fight each other and cannot concentrate on doing big things.

However, at this point, how long can the advantages of this unified order last? It is also a question worth discussing.

In any case, Guo Peng's opinion, the people's hearts of the Sun Wu regime were almost dispersed and not far from being destroyed. Although Sun Quan was better at maintaining success, and although Zhou Yu was a commander, the time and people were no longer in Sun Wu. Even Sun Fu, a member of the Sun Wu royal family, wrote a letter to surrender.

Obviously, some people in the Sun Wu royal family realized that things were impossible, and in order to protect themselves, they made the decision to defect to Guo Peng.

Guo Peng was very interesting about this.

But now it is still not an opportunity to go south to Jiangdong. He ordered Governor Zhang Liao's entire army not to cross the river and not to cause trouble.

At this time, it was when Zhou Yu was trying his best to display his talents, and Mr. Guo wanted to see how Zhou Gongjin showed his military talent to prosper the Sun Wu regime.

The Wei army should not intervene at this time, so as not to affect his subsequent layout.

As for Sun Fu...

If he dies, he will die. One more is not more, one less is not less. If he really wants to come, he will come by himself. He wants the Wei army to save him, but there is no way.

Guo’s talent does not have so much time to save people. It is not the time for the Wei army to intervene in the chaos in Jiangdong, and Jiangdong is not chaotic enough.

And more importantly, at this moment, some of the things that happened in Hanzhong are quite meaningful to Mr. Guo.

What happened in Hanzhong was naturally the conflict between Liu Zhang and Pang Xi.

The Northern Expedition failed because of a problem with the food outlet. Pang Xi felt extremely painful, extremely uncomfortable and very depressed.

However, Fa saw the repairs of landslide roads on the way back, noticed the problem, and told Pang Xi that something was wrong.

The problem with the food industry may not be natural disasters, but man-made disasters.

"Someone secretly tampered with the army to block the northern expedition?"

"Yes, otherwise, if the collapsed places are repaired with all their efforts, it will not be impossible to be able to be opened. If they cannot be opened, there is only one reason, that is, someone is deliberately delaying time and deliberately preventing the road from being opened, so as to force the general to withdraw his troops."

Fazheng said with certainty.

"Who? Who would do that? Who would force me to retreat? The lives of thousands of soldiers were thrown in Liangzhou for nothing. Is it because of this?"

Pang Xi looked full of disbelief and suspicion.

Fa Zheng thought for a moment, remembering the humiliation and discrimination he suffered when he was seeking his career in Yizhou, and the boss was immediately resentful and dissatisfied.

"Who is the most beneficial to the general who thinks that if he retreats his troops and cannot get credit for his contribution?"

“…”

Pang Xi frowned, thought for a moment, his brows gradually loosened, but the murderous intent in his eyes became more and more serious.

"Who is the most beneficial to? Who else can it be beneficial to besides that group of people? Could it be beneficial to the king?"

Seeing the murderous intent in Pang Xi's eyes, Fa Zheng was stunned and suddenly realized who Pang Xi was talking about.
