Zhuge Liang invited Yu Bei and Lu Su to visit Sun Quan. To carry out the strategy of "uniting Sun Quan in the East and rejecting Cao Cao in the north". When he saw the power, he said, "it's a great chaos in the world, and the government is in charge of Jiangdong.". My lord gathered in the south to compete with CaO in the Central Plains. Today, Cao has swept the north, taking advantage of the situation to the south, breaking Jingzhou and shaking the world. My Lord "heroes have no place to fight", so he is far away from here. I hope that the public can do what they can. If they can cooperate with the people of Wu and Yue, and work together to refuse, the matter will be decided as soon as possible. Otherwise, they will bow to the throne and do things in the north. It's like subjecting to the outside, but hesitating to the inside. It's time to stop, and disaster is coming. " Quan originally wanted to fight. When he heard this again, he became very angry, so he started to speak out and joined hands against Cao.
