Do you know how the Jiangdong pair, which can compete with the Longzhong pair, changed the history of Eastern Wu?
Today's interesting history xiaobian will bring you relevant details.
Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei's Longzhong dialogue is arguably the greatest dialogue in Chinese history, and this dialogue not only changed the fate of Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang, but also changed the development trajectory of the entire history of the Eastern Han Dynasty, becoming a situation in which the Three Kingdoms were established.
In fact, before Zhuge Liang and Liu Beilongzhong confronted each other, the specific time was 200 AD, and there was also a dialogue in Jiangdong that was enough to change the history of Eastern Wu, and the protagonist of this dialogue was the dialogue between Sun Quan, the lord of Jiangdong, and Lu Su, the important minister of Jiangdong, and it was also a dialogue that historians called comparable to Longzhong.
"Jiangdong pair" is a dialogue between Sun Quan, the lord of Wu, and Lu Su, who had taken refuge in Jiangdong because of the war. The image of Lu Su in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a loyal elder, and even plays the role of a peacemaker in the open and secret struggle between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, and has always been indisputable in order to maintain sun and liu alliances. Now look at The role of Lu Su, a somewhat generous figure, in the historical development of Jiangdong is actually no smaller than that of Zhou Yu, who is full of warp and lupine scarves.
Lu Su is not only a famous soldier in Jiangdong, but also a person who supports the cause of Eastern Wu with righteousness and wealth, compared to Zhou Yu, Sun Quan relies more on the old Lu Su, why say so, Zhou Yu is a person that Sun Ce values, in the Battle of Chibi, he also defeated more than 800,000 Cao troops, the merit is unique for a while, for such a person, Sun Quan is actually a little jealous. Coupled with the fact that Zhou Yu was in charge of the army at that time and was stationed outside, it was normal for a young monarch to have such worries. Therefore, Sun Quan's dependence on Lu Su was more important than Zhou Yu's, and the "Jiangdong pair" happened.
In the "Jiangdong Pair", Lu Su proposed several development paths to Sun Quan, and it was these development paths that enabled Eastern Wu to remain in the chaotic world for a long time and stick to one side.
Sun Quan asked Lu Su, I want to achieve something in this chaotic world, what do you say I should do?
Lu Su: For the sake of the general, the Han Dynasty could not be revived, and Cao Cao could not be eradicated immediately, but Dingzu Jiangdong paid close attention to the situation in the world and waited for the opportunity to act.
Lu Su's words can be understood in several parts:
The first is to stand in the east of the river and stabilize the fundamentals. Jiangdong is the base camp of Eastern Wu, we must guard it well, we must manage it well, only by running Jiangdong well can we attack the Central Plains and seek the whole world.
The second is to occupy Jingzhou and control the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Jingzhou has always been a place where soldiers must fight, and Zhuge Liang also said in Longzhong that Jingzhou is a place of use, and controlling the upper reaches of the Yangtze River is equivalent to occupying the natural danger of the Yangtze River, and grasping the initiative.
The third is to annex Yizhou, take the Yangtze River as the boundary, unify the south, and form a north-south confrontation between Cao Cao, to rule by river. Lu Su also mentioned Yizhou, and it was proposed seven years before Zhuge Liang, when Lu Su saw the strategic position of Jingzhou and Yizhou and suggested that Sun Quan should occupy Jingzhou and Yizhou.
The fourth is to build the title of emperor and Xu Tu to the world. After achieving the above three goals, you can claim the title of emperor in Jiangdong, and then slowly unify the world.
If you compare Lu Su's "Jiangdong pair" with Zhuge Liang's "Longzhong pair", you will find that there are many similarities. Both of these comparable dialogues mention the strategic locations of Jingzhou and Yizhou, which shows that these two places are indeed extraordinary, and also show Lu Su's insight.
The so-called "heroes see a little the same", during the Sun Liu Alliance, Lu Su played a key role in it, after the untimely death of Zhou Yu, the first governor of Eastern Wu, Lu Su took over Zhou Yu's position and controlled the military and political power in Jiangdong. During Lu Su's tenure as governor, it was also the best few years for the development of Sun Liu's alliance, because of Sun Liu's alliance, Cao Cao in the north had some scruples and did not dare to go south, which also won several years of peace for the common people at that time, which was also rare in the chaotic world.
Lu Su was gentle and elegant on the outside, but in his heart he hid thousands of troops and horses, and for the sake of The Great Cause of Eastern Wu, this scholar who had no power to bind the chickens planned a kangzhuang avenue so that Eastern Wu could protect the peace of the people in the chaotic world.
Gentlemen are different from each other, those who can maintain their independence, are not afraid of power, and have independent opinions, no matter how the world changes, they can become the pillars of the world and contribute to the world.
