Three Kingdoms

  Chapter 1086 Killing and turning back

   "Someone wants to kill someone too!"

  Sun Ce yelled loudly, and only after he finished speaking did he feel a little strange why there was an extra word "also".

Sun Ce himself is brave and has the ability to be a commander. Naturally, he is a little arrogant. When he went north, he was already a man holding his nose. He endured it for a long time. Now he is always leading the army alone. Naturally, this little temper has been revealed. come out.

After keeping his filial piety, Sun Ce went to Shouchun to find Yuan Shu to take back Sun Jian's old army and prepare to avenge his father, but Yuan Shu was reluctant to return such a soldier to Sun Ce, so he dismissed Sun Ce and asked him to go to Xuzhou to shepherd Taoqian temporarily The subordinates are on errands.

  Tao Qian, for a person sent by Yuan Shu, naturally felt that getting in the way was not pleasing to the eye, and he also disliked Sun Ce...

After a while, Sun Ce found an excuse and returned to Yuan Shu's place. Yuan Shu was still unwilling to hand over Sun Jian's old soldiers, so he asked Sun Ce to go to his uncle Wu Jing, saying that Danyang had sent out elite soldiers, and asked Sun Ce to go to Sun Ce himself. Go recruit.

  Sun Ce held his nose again and endured it.

Sun Ce endured Yuan Shu because Yuan Shu had something he wanted in his hands. Whether it was a veteran left by his father, Sun Jian, or his future development, he needed to rely on Yuan Shu, but that didn't mean that Sun Ce had no temper at all. Anyone can be bullied.

  Passing through Shu County this time, Sun Ce heard about Lu Kang’s name, so he came to visit, but Lu Kang looked down on Sun Ce, so he asked his master to receive him. Lu Kang himself did not show up to meet Sun Ce...

  This, according to the habits of later generations, is not a big deal.

  What is Sun Ce's position?

The Huaiyi school lieutenant appointed by the imperial court, um, was recently promoted, with an official rank of at most six hundred shi, while Lu Kang has long been famous in the countryside and counties, and was also named General Loyalty. Although he is a miscellaneous general, he is also The official rank of two thousand stones, can such a gap be compared?

It's like a small mayor went to meet a high-level person, and then the high-level person asked the secretary to receive him, but he didn't show up. If this is not normal for future generations, it is even very polite. Such behavior is a slap in the face.

  In the Han Dynasty, who could eat a meal and become an enemy, Sun Ce had a violent temper and couldn't bear it immediately. After returning to the barracks, he yelled angrily, as if he was going to send troops to bring his younger brother back to the place.

   Zhou Yu couldn't laugh or cry. The relationship between Sun Jian and these Jiangdong gentry is not very good. Now that Sun Ce is here again, is this Sun family born to have **** **** with these Jiangdong gentry?

  Sun Jian killed Wang Rui because of a disagreement, and Zhang Zi for money and official position. How could such a thing have any good comments in the eyes of the Jiangdong gentry? Now if it weren't for the fact that Sun Ce was under Yuan Shu's banner, and because of Yuan's sympathy, Lu Kang might have expelled Sun Ce on the spot, and he wouldn't even come out to entertain him.

Yuan Shu has a more or less positive image now. At least the separatist rule of Yuzhou can be said to be a rebellion against Dong Zhuo’s tyranny. There is a reason for this, and Yuan Kui’s death also won a lot of sympathy points. Therefore, when Lu Kang first started, he was relatively recognized. Yuan Shu's.

But as time went by, Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao didn't obey the orders of the imperial court, and gradually exposed their arrogance, sending minions to serve as officials in various places, and treating the imperial court as nothing, which made Lu Kang very disgusted, and slowly At the beginning, I felt a little disapproving of Yuan Shi, but of course, it's still okay for the time being.

  Perhaps it was because they lost too much during the conquest of the Qin Dynasty. The enthusiasm of the Jiangdong gentry for the matter of hegemony seemed to be used up by Xiang Yu all at once, and they still can't arouse much interest until now.

Xiang Yu once took Jiangdong's children to attack Xianyang, but for Jiangdong, he did not get more benefits. In fact, it was as if Jiangdong used all his resources, manpower and material resources to fight with the whole of China. People are contending, even if there is no Liu Bang, there may be administrative agents from other regions who will come forward to contend with Xiang Yu, and the entire central government cannot be completely controlled by the Jiangdong gentry.

  So from this point of view, after Xiang Yu, the Jiangdong gentry seem to have learned a lesson. For things like fighting for hegemony...

  Hehe, forget it...

  Jiangdong gentry can spare no effort to maintain peace in Jiangdong, but I’m sorry, I’m not interested in letting Jiangdong gentry participate in the world’s hegemony. As for who can manage the world and Jiangdong, it’s a matter of Jiangdong gentry.

  In addition, the Jiangdong gentry also look down on these people who use force to fight for the world. Why do you want to do something that can solve the problem with a beep?

  Zhou Yu is aware of these things, but how to make Sun Ce's violent temper also clear has become a thorny issue.

"Bo Fu, the Lu family is a prominent family in Jiangdong, and its disciples have connections all over Jiangdong, involving a lot," Zhou Yu tried to state the powerful relationship clearly, "the rules are a bit big, this is normal, don't mind Bo Fu... a certain person went to visit back then, and I haven't seen Lu Jining before..."

   "What?!" Sun Ce jumped up when he heard the words, "What a villain! I didn't even see you! I was humiliated, how could you be humiliated! Damn it! You should be killed!"

"This..." Zhou Yu was a little moved, but also a little helpless, "I am a small clan, and it is common sense that the Lu family will not be there... Ah, this is a secondary matter... Bofu must know that if the Lu family is damaged, Jiangdong will be shaken. At that time, the Jiangdong gentry will all regard us as enemies, won't it be difficult for us to move forward?"

  Sun Ce glared and said, "Who dares to stop someone? Kill them all!"

  Zhou Yu smiled helplessly: "If everyone in the world blocks you, can't you kill them all?"

  Sun Ce laughed loudly and said: "When one person blocks XX, XX kills one person! Hundreds of people block XX, XX kills 100 people! Ten thousand people block XX, XX kills 10,000 people! When all the people in the world block XX, XX kills everyone in the world!"

   "..." Zhou Yu stared at Sun Ce, speechless.

Sun Ce laughed for a while, then patted Zhou Yu on the shoulder, and said, "Gongjin kindness, I know... I was just joking... Not to mention how big the world is, are they all brave people who are not afraid of death?" ? If you kill hundreds of people and thousands of people, the rest will be terrified, so why kill all the people in the world?"

  With the weapon in hand, it is the law of heaven! If you don't accept it, you will kill until you accept it. If you are not afraid, you will kill until you are afraid! What is the Jiangdong gentry? It has not been developed from generation to generation. If you are not obedient and disrespectful to someone, you will cut off its vitality! I don't believe it, this neck is harder than a blade! A certain doesn't believe it, after killing one family and ten families, there are still people who dare to disobey him!

"...Bo Fu, the urgent need at the moment is to recruit more soldiers..." Zhou Yu gave up positive persuasion, and could only adopt a strategy of drawing Sun Ce to other aspects, "...if there are no soldiers, everything is illusory...The story of Uncle Sun I don't know when I will get revenge..."

"..." Speaking of this matter, Sun Ce no longer had any smile on his face. He was silent for a while, then nodded and said, "...Gong Jin's words are reasonable. If you don't revenge your father, you are not a son of man! So, let's write it down for now. Wait until someone avenges his father, and then we'll make a fuss..."

  ………………

  In the government office of Chenliu County, there was no smile on Zhang Miao's face either.

  Bian Rang is Chen Liuren.

  Cao Cao did not go through Zhang Miao's hands, nor did he send someone to talk to Zhang Miao, but he brazenly killed and made the whole family old and young. What does this mean?

  Of course, if Cao Cao really communicated with Zhang Miao, Zhang Miao must have just found out on the front foot, and immediately sent someone to inform him to make way...

This behavior has nothing to do with supporting or not supporting Cao Cao, because in the Han Dynasty, such behavior was a virtue, and it was worth advocating and encouraging. It was even clearly stated in the law that if the prisoner was his relative, there would be no cover-up. crime. It is right for relatives to protect each other. On the contrary, it is an act of righteousness to kill relatives, which will be stabbed in the backbone of the Han Dynasty for a lifetime.

   Therefore, Zhang Miao will definitely protect Bian Rang just like he shielded Cao Cao, the court criminal.

  But now, the heads of Bian Rang fell to the ground, and even their relatives were exterminated, and there was not even a body collected. How can this not make people scared?

   Then, apart from being apprehensive, I inevitably had some other thoughts...

   "Kill Wenli today, who will he kill tomorrow?" Chen Gong cupped his hands and said to Zhang Miao, "If you don't make preparations early at this time, it will be too late to regret when the knife and ax are added to your body!"

  Zhang Miao frowned, the wrinkles on his face were almost shrunk into a ball.

   "The envoy should make a decision early!" Seeing this, Chen Gong urged again.

  Zhang Miao's eyes seemed to stay in one place, his eyeballs were dry, and he couldn't help blinking violently, even a trace of tears poured out, "A certain and Meng De are brothers and sisters..."

  The relationship between Zhang Miao and Cao Cao is indeed good.

  Strictly speaking, Zhang Miao was kind to Cao Cao.

  If Zhang Miao hadn’t acted as Cao Cao’s protective umbrella, Cao Cao might not have existed for a long time...

Speaking of it, the laws of the Han Dynasty are just like a joke. Local officials have too much authority, which is no different from that of medieval lords. In addition, the people do not know how to read, so officials say what they say, and at the same time, the children of the gentry There is also a tacit understanding within the circle, or unspoken rules, so Zhang Miao shielded Cao Cao's behavior. Not only did no one think that Zhang Miao had violated the court and neglected his duties, but they praised Zhang Miao more and more for his kindness and righteousness, and he was a benevolent gentleman.

  Of course, the scope of this protection is limited to the inner circle of gentry children, and it can make a big improvement. If you make a mistake, you should naturally give it a chance...

  However, this time, Chen Gong obviously felt that Cao Cao had been given too many opportunities.

Therefore, Chen Gong looked at Zhang Miao indifferently for a while, and then said: "What about siblings? Do you remember that when Cao Yanzhou took office, he also said that he treated the people of Yanzhou like sons...so you can hear that tigers are poisonous and don't eat their sons." Huh?"

   "..." Zhang Miao was silent.

For Zhang Miao and Chen Gong, they are both natives of Yanzhou, and protecting the interests of the Yanzhou gentry has become a kind of instinct, so when they think that the interests of the Yanzhou gentry have been violated, it may continue At this time, any personal friendship must be put aside.

"...Cao Yanzhou...there are so many soldiers, what can we do?" Zhang Miao wiped the corners of his eyes, put away his sympathetic face, and said with a straight face. The mask covered a small part, forming a sharp triangular shape, and the eyes flickered and changed.

  At this moment, this is considered to have really entered the discussion of practical issues.

Cao Cao has now recruited Qingzhou soldiers, and they are deliberately wooing them, so the Qingzhou soldiers are quite satisfied with Cao Cao's new commander, and they are more or less obedient. of a huge stone.

However, it was clear that Chen Gong had planned a long time ago. Seeing that Zhang Miao finally got to the point, he said calmly, "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry, this matter is easy... Cao Yanzhou relies on nothing but Qingzhou bandits. If someone has a strategy, he can wipe it away without any effort..."

  Of course, the so-called effortlessness is mostly an adjective, but such a statement did arouse Zhang Miao's great interest, so he questioned Chen Gong.

  Chen Gong stroked his beard, and said slowly: "Cao Yanzhou is alone, there is nothing to be afraid of... But you should know, who gave him the position of East Commander?"

Zhang Miao pondered, and said: "The meaning of the public platform, could it be...Yuan Cheqi? However, a certain and Yuan Cheqi..." Zhang Miao was somewhat dissatisfied because Yuan Shao didn't share the benefits with him before, so he also said a lot about Yuan Shao bad words, so the relationship with Yuan Shao is not very good.

Chen Gong smiled and said: "You don't need to worry too much, Yuan Cheqi has the world in his heart, how can he be a stickler for small things? What's more, now that Cao Yanzhou has the intention of governing by himself, Yuan Cheqi will definitely not tolerate it! You can send people to secretly collect Cao Yanzhou's crimes, report to Yuan Cheqi, and express your goodwill... In this way, Yuan Cheqi will definitely honor us and refuse Cao Yanzhou's aid... At that time, the envoy will come to the stage to order, and Yanzhou will definitely follow From...Cao Yanzhou, hehe, first cut off Yuan's chariot and cavalry aid, and then cut off Yanzhou's money and food supply, even though there are many soldiers, they are like chickens and dogs..."

Chen Gong continued: "...Yuan Cheqi and General Gongsun still have a battle, this is a good opportunity...Now the envoy's name is more important than Yan, Chen Liubing has enough food, and Lu Fengxian is so brave and brave. This is a heavenly envoy. What's more, the world is in chaos, and the king's order is cut off, so that the king can lead the herds and fund the world!"

Chen Gong's strategy is actually very simple, which is to abandon the small conflicts with Yuan Shao before and restore the relationship with Yuan Shao. For Yuan Shao, a stable Yanzhou that can support him to contend with Gongsun Zan is what meets Yuan Shao's needs. Yuan Shao said that Cao Cao wanted to separate Yanzhou and stand on his own. Yuan Shao would definitely dislike Cao Cao and even support Zhang Miao instead. Zhang Miao can take this opportunity to use his reputation in Yanzhou to call on the Yanzhou gentry to cut off the supply to Cao Cao, then it will not be difficult to defeat Cao Cao, and he can take Yanzhou into his pocket for follow-up.

  Zhang Miao's eyes flickered, and his heart was constantly circling. Although what Chen Gong said was good, Zhang Miao thought more about it. If the relationship between Yuan Shao and Cao Cao was stronger, or if Yuan Shao didn't forgive his thoughts, wouldn't he be sent to Yuan Shao's sword?

   "Emissary!" Chen Gong waited to persuade, but was stopped by Zhang Miao.

   "This..." Zhang Miao pondered, hesitated, and then said after a while, "...this matter is very important, let me think about it..."
