Taishou Li Shu openly rebelled, and tens of thousands of Shanyue in Yuzhang, Huiji and other places also waited for an opportunity to rebel. Mrs. Wu convened an internal core meeting to discuss countermeasures. This meeting gathered Sun's confidants and important ministers, and Zhang Zhao, the minister of Tuogu, was also present, why did Chen Shou only record a passage of Dong Xi in the "Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms"?
Let's take a look at the meaning of Dong Xi's original words: Jiangdong is terrained and solid, and Sun Ce is deeply popular among the people of Jiangdong. Sun Quan has now inherited the career of his father and brother, ** they are willing to go all out, Zhang Zhao presides over various affairs, we are in charge of the battle, with the right time and place, Mrs. Wu does not have to worry (Jiangdong terrain is dangerous, rebel against the kindness of the Ming Mansion in the people, ask for the capture of Chengji, use his life, Zhang Zhao Bing is a man, attack and so on as a minions, this place is good for people and time, nothing to worry about).
Dong Xi's words are of great significance, because he represents the attitude of the local military generals in Jiangdong.
The generals and ministers of the Sun family mainly came from the Liaodong and Huaisi regions in the north, including important figures such as Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, and their interests were closely linked to the Sun family, and once the Sun family suffered a blow, they would also face the same fate, so it can be said that they were both prosperous and lossless.
So what is the attitude of the Koto localists? After all, Sun Ce's foothold in Jiangdong was obtained through fighting all the way, and the battle of the Lujiang River before crossing the river also made Sun Ce and the Lu family of Wu County form a great enmity.
Although Sun Ce was killed by the assassination of Xu Gongmenke, it was normal for Sun Quan and Mrs. Wu to have doubts about the Jiangdong Native faction. After all, Sun Ce pacified Wu and Hui and killed the local heroes, but at that time, there were still Huiji, Wu County, Danyang, Yuzhang, Luling and other places that had not yet fully obeyed his rule, and the heroes of the world were also scattered in various states and counties.
Among these four mountains, the greatest threat to Sun Quan was the Jiangdong Hao clan. Since the important ministers were all from the north, they could not threaten Sun Quan for a long time; Shanyue mainly relied on geographical advantages to attack and harass, and rarely took the initiative to attack counties; And the Jiangdong Hao clan has both military power and grain and grass, once the rebellion, Sun Quan wants to extinguish them, and the difficulty is equivalent to leveling Jiangdong again.
Dong Xi's timely stance was decisive, and his generous speech expressed to a certain extent the support of the Jiangdong Hao clan towards Sun Quan. Later, Lu Xun took the initiative to become Sun Quan, which also became a proof of this view.
History is always full of curiosity, and at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the wealthy families of Liangzhou took the lead in launching a rebellion, which dealt a major blow to the imperial court. Cao Wei put down this rebellion before the founding of the country, but who would have expected that the originally "well-behaved" Jiangdong would actually become the regime that had been divided for the longest time, and it was not until the Western Jin Dynasty that it was eliminated, even better than Yizhou.
