However, Tao Qian said that he heard Yang Wei's return, that he and Yuan Shu had made an alliance to take Yuzhou together, and heard that Yuan Shu was willing to send 20,000 troops. Yu, but it will surely disturb Sun Jian and Xun Zhen, and it will be enough to put me in Xuzhou temporarily!" Because of the order to the prefecture, food, equipment and other materials were mobilized and shipped to Luyang. Pinshu.com (www.VoDtw.coM)

Generally speaking, there are two ways to go from Tan County, the prefecture of Xuzhou, to Luyang, Jingzhou, where Yuan Shu is located.

One is through Xiapi, into Runan, and then from Runan to Luyang.

One is not to go to Xiapi, go through Guangling, enter Danyang, Yangzhou, and then go west from Danyang, enter the boundary of Nanyang in Jingzhou, and reach Luyang County.

These two roads, no matter which one you choose, must go through the territory of Sun Jian or Xun Zhen. The first one goes through Runan, obviously it needs to go through Sun Jian’s land, and the latter one goes through Danyang, it needs to go through Xun Zhen’s land. .

Although Yang Wei's mission to Lu Yang is very secret, Xun Zhen and Sun Jian should not know about it, but once they start sending supplies to Yuan Shu on a large scale, let alone Xun Zhen and Sun Jian, even a fool can guess from this. To Tao Qian and Yuan Shu, there must be a "hidden" covenant. Therefore, for the sake of prudence, Tao Qian first ruled out the route of passing through Guangling and taking Danyang, and chose the route of passing through Runan.

Although Runan belongs to Yuzhou, it is nominally Sun Jian's territory, but Sun Jian's rule over Henan is short, and there are many local prefectures and counties who disobey him and act against him. Second, Runan is Yuan Shu's hometown, and Yuan Shu's influence here He has a great influence and many gentry and tyrants are closely related to him. Therefore, it is obviously much safer to go through Runan to Luyang than through Guangling and Danyang.

Although it was safe, Tao Qian had done enough security work, but soon after the delivery started, rumors spread.

If the transportation line from Tanxian to Luyang is divided into two sections, then the second section is Runan to Luyang, or Yuzhou to Jingzhou,

The first paragraph is from Tanxian to Runan, or Xuzhou to Yuzhou. The prefecture of Yuzhou is in Pei County. Pei County is adjacent to Xuzhou in the east and Runan in the southwest. It can be said that it is exactly in this first paragraph. above the transport line.

Tao Qian was engaged in large-scale transportation under Sun Jian's nose. It was impossible for Sun Jian to be completely kept in the dark. At most, he knew about it earlier or later.

After Sun Jian learned about this, he immediately guessed Tao Qian's intentions.

Sun Jian immediately wrote a letter and ordered it to be sent to Guangling on horseback with Xunzhen in the face.

In the letter, Sun Jian made a statement about the matter, expressed his speculation, and asked Xun Zhen for his opinion.

In fact, before Sun Jian found out about this, Xun Zhen had already heard about it a little bit. He was always courteous to the corporals, either politely or respectfully, and actively communicated with Xuzhou scholars, especially the prefectures. The exchanges between the officials in the mansion must have been fruitful. Long before Tao Qian began to transport supplies, when Tao Qian was still preparing and raising supplies, someone had already tipped off Xun Zhen.

Xun Zhen knew Yuan Shu well, he said to Xi Zhicai, Xun You, Xun Yu and others at that time: "Yuan Gonggong has a high self-esteem, but he has no real talents, and he has no courage. I expected that Liu Jingsheng would not die. Yuan Gonggong will never dare to enter Yuzhou from the north."

That is to say, Xun Zhen immediately judged that Yuan Shu was deceiving Tao Qian and defrauding Tao Qian with his supplies, and his original intention must be that he had no intention of entering Yu, therefore, Xun Zhen did not Take this seriously.

Now I have received a letter from Sun Jian. Seeing Sun Jian asking for his opinion, Xun Zhen wrote his judgment on this in the reply letter. to blame."

After the letter was written, Xun Zhen sent someone to send it to Sun Jian.

Sun Jian got the letter, read to the end of the letter, saw the words "God does not take, but suffers from it", he laughed, and when he turned to look at Wu Jing and others, who were sitting beside him, laughed: "What Zhenzhi said is true. my heart."

Since there is a fat sheep who took the initiative to send it to the door, how can you sit back and watch the fat sheep slip away and ignore it?

Sun Jian immediately ordered troops and sent Wu Jing to take the lead. He gave him 2,000 troops and ordered them to dress up as "thieves", sneak into Runan, ambush the main road, and when Tao Qian's transport team appeared, they would ambush and rob.

"Disguised as a thief, ambushed and robbed", for Sun Jian, not only was he able to "rob" some food and ordnance, but also had a great advantage, that is: he could take the opportunity to say "If the county is not peaceful, you On the grounds of "thieves in the south", officially sent troops into Runan, under the banner of helping Runan to suppress thieves, to strengthen control over Runan. Yuan Shu's "remote control" of Runan by the Yuan family's children in different places.

Xuzhou prefecture, in the middle of Tan County.

Within three days, Tao Qian received two urgent reports in succession, both of which said: Dao encountered bandits, and food and equipment were robbed.

Tao Qian was very annoyed, and said to Cao Hong, Cao Bao and others: "The people I sent to deliver the supplies were all my Xuzhou elite soldiers, why are the thieves so bold? How dare they rob the state soldiers one after another? Now? This is clearly what Sun Jian did!"

Cao Hong, Cao Bao and others agreed.

But even though they expected that this must be what Sun Jian did, Tao Qian and the others couldn't do anything about it.

First, there is no real evidence; second, if there is real evidence, what can Tao Qian do? Can you still go to the court and ask the court to take care of Sun Jian's sins?

Cao Bao got up and asked for orders, saying: "Sun Jian, who had the power to restore Luoyang, took the lead in Yuzhou, was domineering and arrogant, and now he even robbed our state's grain and equipment. It is unbearable! Please give me five thousand soldiers and horses. Go to attack Pei, and present Sun Jian's head to Duke Ming!"

Tao Qian glanced at Cao Bao and said to himself, "If it is so simple, only five thousand soldiers and horses can kill Sun Jian, why should I form an alliance with Yuan Gonggong?" But he also knew that Cao Bao was just showing his loyalty~ www.wuxiaspot.com~ Yin said, "Although I know it was Sun Jian's actions, but I have no evidence at hand, we cannot rashly start a war. I know your loyalty and courage, so let's sit down first. This matter needs to be discussed in the long run."

As Tao Qian expected, as Tao Qian's most important commander and the most trusted state general/general, at this moment, Cao Bao had to express something, but it was only "to express something. "That's all, after listening to Tao Qian's words, Cao Bao slid down the boat, respectfully answered "No", and returned to the seat to sit down.

Cao Hong said, "The warriors are a major event for the country. It is exactly as Duke Ming said, and you cannot rashly start a war. However, it is not okay to leave this matter alone." He asked Tao Qian, "Dare to ask Duke Ming, if there are any countermeasures? "

Tao Qian thought to himself: "'It's not enough if you don't deal with this matter', isn't this nonsense? I've worked hard to manage Xuzhou for the past few years, saving food and money, taking advantage of others, and helping me with my wealth. , in order to form an alliance with Yuan Gonggong, I had to ask others, so I had to give some of it to him, but it was not given to Sun Wentai in vain!" After a moment of indulgence, he said, "From Tanxian to Luyang, you can either go to Guangling. , or go to Runan, there is no third way to go. Guangling is definitely not going to go, that is to say, there is no other way except Runan. Well, since things are like this, what else can be done? Send some troops and horses to **** them."

Cao Hong and Cao Bao all praised in unison: "Ming Gong is wise!"
