Wu Sangui was an extreme egoist. When he had been backed into a corner, he had surrendered to the Jiannu. Now that the Jiannu were the ones with nowhere left to turn, his first thought was to abandon them. It could be called betrayal. Yet, he knew his own strength alone was insufficient to confront the Jiannu. Thus, Wu Sangui’s first thought turned to Shang Kexi, a fellow defector.
Shang Kexi was somewhat moved by Wu Sangui’s proposal, but he remained doubtful. "Are you suggesting we revolt, Brother Wu?"
"Yes."
