Chapter 1432 Attractive Conditions

After Jiang Ban arrived in Jianye, he went straight to Sun Jun's general's mansion and handed over the greetings and gifts.

During this trip to Jianye, Zhuge Dan specially prepared a generous gift for the powerful people in Wu, including gold, white, jade, pearls, corals and other valuables. Even Jiang Ban, the butler of the General's Mansion, gave benefits, so these servants were particularly attentive and handed over Jiang Ban's greetings and gift lists as soon as possible.

Sun Jun's hand injury has not yet completely healed, which makes him extremely upset. He glanced at the prayer note he handed over. It turned out to be an envoy sent by Zhuge Dan, the governor of Yangzhou of Wei. Not to mention anything else, Sun Junguang was already angry when he saw the word Zhuge. He immediately threw the prayer note to the ground and said angrily: "There is no good person named Zhuge. If you come, you will blow the messenger out--No, catch it first, cut off both hands, and then drive it back to Huainan!"

The faces of his men changed. Since Sun Jun cut off one hand, he seemed to be unpleasant to see anyone with his hands. As long as the person who angered him, it would be very common to cut his hands and feet. By the way, this messenger from Huainan is also unlucky enough. He has no grudges with Sun Jun. He didn't even meet him, and his hands were gone.

This is like a tiger. Maybe Sun Jun was inexplicably angry that day, and the people around them were suffering. Although their hands are still there, they might disappear one day.

But no one dared to disobey Sun Jun's orders. If he didn't cut off the messenger's hand, his hand would probably not be able to be saved soon. His subordinates quickly responded to their orders and were about to go out for execution.

Sun Feng, who was sitting beside him, reached out to stop the people below. He calmly picked up the gift posts and gift lists from the ground and glanced at him. Good guy, the gifts listed on the gift list were really dazzling and valuable. Sun Feng smiled and said to Sun Jun: "Brother, don't be anxious. Zhuge Dan is willing to give such a lot of gifts. He must have asked for it. Let's see what he wants."

Sun Jun is Sun Jun's cousin, both of them are royal families of the Wu Kingdom. His great-grandfather is Sun Jing, the younger brother of Sun Jian, the younger general of Zhaoyi, Sun Jing, the grandfather is Sun Wu, the son of Sun Gong, the assistant minister of Sanqi, Sun Jun is the son of Sun Chuo, the commander of Anmin, and Sun Gong and Sun Chuo are relatives, so Sun Jun is relatively close to Sun Jun. Now that Sun Jun is in power, Sun Jun also gains favour, and he jumps from a general to the position of Shizhong and Wuwei General, becoming Sun Jun's right-hand assistant.

Sun Jun snorted and said, "What kind of good intention can we give the chicken a New Year greeting? We are both traitors or thieves. I think Zhuge Dan is definitely a bad person, so why should we pay attention to him?"

Sun Xu said: "As the governor of Yangzhou, Zhuge Dan suddenly sent someone to give him a gift at this time. He must have encountered trouble, otherwise it would not be like this. Maybe there will be great contributions. Brother, please see him first and then make a decision."

Zhuge Dan was the governor of Yangzhou of Wei State and was a general at the border. In normal circumstances, he was not in contact with Wu State. At this time, there must be a reason for suddenly sending people to visit. Therefore, Sun Jing did not recommend that he refuse to stop people from thousands of miles away and not suffer any loss when he saw him.

Sun Jun hated Zhuge Ke only because he hated Wu Jiwu. After hearing what Sun Feng said, it was just a legitimate reason, so he sent someone to pass on Jiang Ban.

When Jiang Ban entered and the ceremony was over, Sun Jun asked the person who came arrogantly what he meant. Jiang Ban presented Zhuge Dan's letter, and Sun Chen took it apart and looked at it. He couldn't help but look happy and then presented it to Sun Jun.

After seeing this, Sun Jun sneered and said, "The Wei people are treacherous. Isn't this a trick to deceive my soldiers and horses?"

Jiang Ban said: "My governor was almost killed by Sima Shi, so in order to protect his life, he had to raise an army to resist. How could he deceive Prime Minister Sun? Prime Minister Sun could also send someone to investigate this matter. Now that the situation in Huainan is critical, my governor still hopes that Prime Minister Sun can ignore past grudges and send troops to help. To show his sincerity, my governor is willing to ced Hefei New City and provide 10 million yuan of 200,000 hu of military rations, thinking that your army's expenses will be spent. After the matter is completed, he is willing to ced Lujiang County to your country. I wonder what Prime Minister Sun wants?"

Sun Jun pondered for a moment, but did not agree immediately. He just asked Jiang Ban to go back to the inn to rest first and give him a reply tomorrow.

To be honest, the conditions offered by Zhuge Dan are indeed very attractive. If there is really no trap, it will be almost no different from pie falling from the sky.

In order to seize the new city, the Wu Kingdom spent a lot of money and food and lost many people. Over the past decades, he worked hard and finally failed to take down the new city. If Sun Jun took down the new city at this moment, his merits and reputation would definitely reach its peak.

You should know that Wu has always won fewer victories and more defeats. Zhuge Ke won a victory in Dongxing, which doubled Zhuge Ke's reputation. You should know that Dongxing was only the territory of Wu. Zhuge Ke defeated the most was just an invading enemy. Wu and Wei confronted each other for many years, and Wu launched wars dozens of times, but it was still a land that had not been obtained. If the new city of Hefei, which had been coveted by Wu for many years, was enough to be a great success. Sun Jun could also firmly sit in the position of Prime Minister of Wu.

This condition alone is very tempting, not to mention that Zhuge Dan also funded them money and grain, and promised to ced Lujiang County to them after the matter was completed. Therefore, the benefits of the Wu State sending troops this time were obvious. Zhuge Dan did not hesitate to protect himself.

Of course, if these territory are compared with Zhuge Dan's wealth and life, it will be insignificant. If Zhuge Dan's life is gone, what else should he do?

After sending Jiang Ban out, Sun Jun and Sun Chen talked about this matter. Sun Chen believed that the benefit of this matter to the Wu Kingdom was too great to Sun Jun. Even if you take some risks, it was worth it. What's more, Zhuge Dan is now seeking medical treatment in an emergency. In order to save his life, it was the time when the Lion of the Eastern Wu spoke out. Now the conditions offered by Zhuge Dan should be his tentative price, and the bottom line is far more than this.

The tentative bid can be so tempting. Wouldn't Zhuge Dan's bottom line be even more touching? Sun Chen believes that this will be a great opportunity for Sun Jun to establish his prestige in Jiangdong. Even the great emperor Sun Quan could not do it in his entire life, but it was done in Sun Jun's hands. This must be admired by everyone in the whole country, and Sun Jun's status must be as stable as Mount Tai.

When Sun Jun heard that his words were reasonable, he immediately sent Sun Jun to the Inn to negotiate with Jiang Ban. Eastern Wu could send troops, but he must maximize the interests. Without the great benefits, Sun Jun would not agree to Zhuge Dan.
