Chapter 37: Merging States is Toxic [One Shift + Two Changes]

After Sun Ce found the target there, he helped Yuan Shu beat Liu Xuan, and he fought very hard, and a beautiful life was waiting for him ahead!

And Su Yunqing was focused on Yuan Shao's battle of Qingzhou, and by the way, it was best to take care of the affairs in the Sili region.

After all, Li Dao, Guo Yan and Dong Zhuo are different, these two people are even worse than Dong Zhuo.

It's just that......

"Shall we welcome the Son of Heaven at the right time?"

Thinking of the Son of Heaven, Su Yunqing thought of Cao Cao's later coercion of the Son of Heaven to order the princes, which proved to be a more far-sighted approach, in this case, should she follow suit?

But as soon as Su Yunqing's question came out, everyone shook their heads and said no.

Even Mao Jue said directly to Su Yunqing: "If the lord is a man, I will naturally build the lord to welcome the Son of Heaven at the right time, and then we can serve the Son of Heaven to order not to obey, no matter what we do, we can do it in the name of the Son of Heaven, naturally the name is justified, but the lord is a woman, you must know that this world is still a man's world, if the lord welcomes the Son of Heaven to merge the state, then after the Son of Heaven comes, who should we listen to?" โ€

If it is a man, naturally whoever has the fist will listen to whom, and no one dares to say anything after mastering the real power, but Su Yunqing is not, she is a woman, so if someone says that Su Yunqing should return power to the emperor in the name of righteousness, Su Yunqing does not have a too firm position to refuse, otherwise the reputation must be bad.

What's more, it doesn't even need to be returned to the emperor, after all, the Son of Heaven is young now, but it would be a trouble to let the ministers close to the Son of Heaven take over.

If Su Yunqing welcomes the Son of Heaven, then he will have to fall into the quagmire of internal political struggle before he gets the benefits of commanding the princes, which is obviously not cost-effective.

Not to mention that the Son of Heaven is now said to be young, but he will become an adult in a few years, so how should Su Yunqing deal with himself at that time?

In that case, simply don't bother from the beginning.

Su Yunqing thought about it and felt quite right, but: "I always feel a little unwilling to give up the Son of Heaven to others like that." โ€

When the time comes, people will have nothing to do with her, how disgusting it is, if she scolds people in the name of the Son of Heaven, then can she have any other way than to listen?

It's too embarrassing.

Mao Jue shook his head and said: "The lord doesn't have to regret it, as long as we ourselves are strong enough, then it doesn't matter whether we have a son of heaven or not." โ€

As long as Su Yunqing's fist is big, even if there is a son of heaven, what can he do to her? Even if an edict was given to Su Yunqing in the name of the Son of Heaven to let Su Yunqing give up and merge the state, would Su Yunqing really give up? Even if Su Yunqing lets it, who would dare to take it?

Today's Han is no longer the Han of the past, and the Son of Heaven is not the Son of Heaven in the past, in fact, there are few people who really listen to the Son of Heaven.

Therefore, as long as Su Yunqing's strength is enough, then the Son of Heaven is the icing on the cake, and it doesn't matter if he has it or not.

And there is such a thing as a false name, and the whole state actually doesn't care very much.

After figuring out the matter of the Son of Heaven, Su Yunqing deeply felt that strength was the last word, so he paid more attention to Jizhou.

At this time, Yuan Shao was still struggling to fight Qingzhou, but at least half of Qingzhou had already been defeated.

Of course, while staring at Yuan Shao, Su Yunqing did not forget Sun Ce, and when he received the news that Liu Xuan might not be able to hold on, Su Yunqing simply sent troops to Si Li.

Next to Si Li is Yuan Shu's Yuzhou, if Sun Ce wants to come to Bingzhou, he will definitely have to leave from Si Li...... If you don't go from Sili, you can only go from Yuan Shao's Jizhou_(:3ใ‚โˆ )_

In this way, just in case, Su Yunqing sent Zhao Yun to personally bring Chen Bing to the Sili area, so as to facilitate the reception of Sun Ce.

Si Li is considered a borderless land at this time, so he doesn't have to worry about who he will fight with if he sends troops in the past.

It should be said that since Dong Zhuo set fire to Luoyang and then made trouble in Chang'an, the Sili area has been pitted with blood.

In the past, there was no assassination in the Sili area, because this place was directly under the jurisdiction of the central government, and it is conceivable that Sili used to be a very prosperous place, but now it is a wilderness, ten rooms and nine empty, basically there are no people, and the people who can escape have already fled to other places.

It's just that Su Yunqing's behavior of sending troops scared the two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu a lot, not to mention that Si Li is Yuzhou, Su Yunqing drove the army to the border, how nervous Yuan Shu was, just said that Yuan Shao couldn't stand this.

In fact, Yuan Shu is better over there, after all, Su Yunqing is not stupid, he should not cross Si Li and directly hit Yuzhou before taking Si Li, don't talk about this kind of stupid thing, Su Yunqing, Yuan Shu can't do it, so although Yuan Shu is nervous, he will not sleep well.

But Yuan Shao is different, Yuan Shao's Jizhou is particularly cheating, he has a border with Bingzhou, a border with Youzhou, a border with Yanzhou, and a border with Sizhou, that is, the Sili area.

Isn't that too bad!

Now that Cao Cao in Yanzhou is busy fighting with Tao Qian, Yuan Shao is not worried that Cao Cao will be able to fight him for the time being, after all, Cao Cao's family background Yuan Shao also knows that Cao Cao at this time is not capable of dividing troops, but Su Yunqing is different!

The state is Su Yunqing's, Youzhou is Su Yunqing's, and now Su Yunqing has driven the army to Sizhou again, what is this for?

Yuan Shao suddenly couldn't sleep well, he always felt that Su Yunqing was going to beat him.

If Su Yunqing really came to beat him at this time...... Yuan Shao really couldn't help it except for the tearful confession in his eyes.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shao felt that this was not good, Qingzhou wanted to fight, but Su Yunqing had to be more vigilant, so he decisively dispatched Yan Liang, who was originally in full swing with Qingzhou Yellow Turban, to come over, and let Yan Liang stare at Su Yunqing, in case Su Yunqing took advantage of him to fight Qingzhou and stabbed him from behind.

If he was caught this knife unsuspectingly, then Yuan Shao would be too wronged.

Different from Yuan Shao's nervousness, Su Yunqing's atmosphere here was quite relaxed, Zhao Yun stopped directly in Sizhou with the army, and did not move at all, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu The two brothers stared at Zhao Yun for several days, and found that Zhao Yun had neither the inclination to fight Yuan Shao nor the tendency to fight Yuan Shu, so everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But the two brothers of the Yuan family breathed a sigh of relief, and Li Dao and Guo Yan in Chang'an began to get nervous.

Su Yunqing didn't fight Yuan Shao or Yuan Shu, could it be that he wanted to beat them? The two of them immediately couldn't sit still.

Just when the two of them were about to kidnap the emperor and run away again, Su Yunqing finally moved here, and Zhao Yun led people to go further and walked to the edge of Si Li and Yuzhou.

Now Yuan Shu is going to explode!

Yuan Shu felt that Su Yunqing must be targeting him!

Although he didn't understand what was wrong with Su Yunqing's brain and he suddenly wanted to fight him, Yuan Shu was still in good faith, and he hurriedly transferred troops to garrison the border.

Yuan Shu was very happy to hear this Sun Ce say this, you must know that he had just promised Sun Ce before the fight that if Sun Ce could defeat Liu Xuan, then he would hand over Liu Xuan's territory to Sun Ce's garrison, and now that Sun Ce had defeated Liu Xuan, it was time for Yuan Shu to fulfill his promise, but Yuan Shu did not intend to fulfill this promise.

Sun Ce was very heroic in the battle with Liu Xuan, and Yuan Shu had already seen the shadow of Sun Jian in Sun Ce's body, so Yuan Shu couldn't help but think, if he let Sun Ce control the military power independently, would Sun Ce still listen to him in the future? Even after he handed over Liu Xuan's territory to Sun Ce, would the territory still belong to him? Will he be able to get it back?

Obviously, Yuan Shu felt that it was unlikely, he felt that if Sun Ce was allowed to develop, he would definitely not be able to control Sun Ce in the future, which was also a little too dangerous, but Yuan Shu was thinking about how to fool Sun Ce this time, Sun Ce himself proposed to fight with Su Yunqing, Yuan Shu was immediately happy and wanted to hug Sun Ce and kiss him.

This kid is so caring!

In Yuan Shu's opinion, let Sun Ce go to a stalemate with Su Yunqing for a period of time, he took the opportunity to send someone to find out with Su Yunqing what this was going to do, and when the problem was solved, Sun Ce came back, and then there were already people in Liu Xuan's place, and he could arrange his own people to go up, and the reason was also very good, this place can't be without a chief for a day, Sun Ce went out to fight, so he could only let others go, and when the time came, everyone would have a firm foothold, and he couldn't just drive people away, right? Yuan Shu said that it wasn't that he didn't want to give Sun Ce territory, and he was also embarrassed, okay? Besides, it was Sun Ce's own intention to go to fight with Su Yunqing in the first place, and it had nothing to do with him at all.

Thinking of this, Yuan Shu felt that he was simply too witty, so he agreed to Sun Ce's request very happily, and when Sun Ce proposed that he wanted to bring more of his father's old department, Yuan Shu also generously agreed.

In Yuan Shu's opinion, Su Yunqing's combat power is terrifying, this battle is best fought in the past, and the sacrifice must be very large, at this time, of course, he is not willing to let his people die, but those Sun Jian's old departments are different, these people are loyal to Sun Jian, and it is troublesome for him to pinch his hands, just this time they are all released to die, and when the time comes, they can only blame Sun Ce who wants them to go over, it has nothing to do with him, no one can say that he deliberately consumed Sun Ce's strength.

So not long after Sun Ce came back, he took people out again, this time in addition to those who originally followed Sun Ce, Yuan Shu also handed over many of Sun Jian's former subordinates to Sun Ce, just waiting for these people to die.

Of course, in order to show that he didn't deliberately let these people die, Yuan Shu also sent Sun Ce a lot of grain and grass before he left.

Sun Ce sighed: "Yuan Shu is also good to me, but I want to leave him." โ€

I always feel a little sorry for Yuan Shu.

Zhou Yu next to him didn't have this feeling, just looking at Sun Ce like that, Zhou Yu couldn't help reminding: "You don't really think that Yuan Shu is right to you, right?" โ€

To put it bluntly, Yuan Shu's move was no different from giving a good meal to a death row inmate in the cell before he died.

When Zhou Yu said this, Sun Ce immediately felt no guilt at all.

In fact, he didn't have anything to be sorry for Yuan Shu, but Yuan Shu had always been sorry for him, so if he really wanted to say it, even if Sun Ce left Yuan Shu at this time, it would not be called betrayal.

So just when Yuan Shu was busy sending an envoy to Su Yunqing while waiting for Sun Ce to hit his head and bleed, he received a message that Sun Ce directly crossed the border between Yuzhou and Sili and went straight to Bingzhou, and Zhao Yun didn't care about him at all.

Yuan Shu: "......"

This Zhao Yun shouldn't be stupid, right?

No, it's not right, Yuan Shu suddenly reacted, why did Sun Ce run to Bingzhou if he had nothing to do? Looking for death?

Yuan Shu suddenly had a not-so-good premonition.

Sure enough, two days later, someone sent him two letters, one was Sun Ce's, and the other was Su Yunqing's, Yuan Shu took the letter with a puzzled face, but after he read it, he lifted the table and reads;.

Sun Ce pitted him!!

And Su Yunqing also told him with a tough attitude that Sun Ce was going to her, and said that if Yuan Shu wanted to send troops, Zhao Yun would be waiting for him at the border.

Now Yuan Shu turned off.

Yuan Shu was not angry, but he knew better that after Sun Ce left, he even took his generals with him.

Needless to say, Sun Ce himself is a fierce general, Sun Jian's subordinates before, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zumao and others are also very good generals, and this time, all of them were taken away by Sun Ce.

But do you want to say that Yuan Shu dares to chase it? Of course Yuan Shu didn't dare.

Let's not talk about whether we can chase it back, let's talk about Su Yunqing, people have already put their words there, as long as Yuan Shu dares to chase Zhao Yun, he will dare to start a war.

That's Zhao Yun...... That's Zhao Yun, who defeated the said insurmountable Juyong Pass in World War I!

And as long as Zhao Yun is beaten, Su Yunqing, Lu Bu or something, then all of them have to come over?

Therefore, when it comes to chasing Sun Ce or something, you can only think about it, Sun Ce is destined to not belong to him.

Of course, this does not mean that Yuan Shu can swallow this breath, in Yuan Shu's opinion, Sun Ce is betraying him.

"In vain I have worked so hard for him, I trust him so much, and ask people to give food to people, and he does this to me."

Yuan Shu felt bitter in his heart.

"Sun Ce is treacherous, cunning and cunning, tell me, how good I have been to him since he came to me? What did he do to me as a result? โ€

The more Yuan Shu thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, and he angrily scolded Sun Ce inside and out in the lobby before he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, Yuan Shu picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Su Yunqing.

Sun Ce dared to betray him, he wanted Sun Ce to have a hard time in the future, he really thought that it would be foolproof if he took refuge in the state?

Yuan Shu snorted, he wanted to see what happened to Sun Ce.

Sun Ce betrayed him and went to Su Yunqing, did Su Yunqing dare to reuse Sun Ce?

Who would believe a man who betrayed his old master? Not to mention that he is not only Sun Ce's master, but also Sun Jian's master, and Sun Ce's betrayal of him is a very strict thing.

Yuan Shu strongly emphasized in the letter that Sun Ce was a treacherous villain who forgot his righteousness, and asked Su Yunqing not to trust him, let alone entrust him with important tasks, and it was better to kill Sun Ce directly for the sake of safety.

Su Yunqing was stunned for a long time when she received Yuan Shu's letter, and finally handed the letter to Sun Ce with the corner of her mouth twitching.

Sun Ce's face changed as soon as he saw the letter, and he immediately wanted to explain to Su Yunqing that it was not that he had treacherously left Yuan Shu, but that Yuan Shu was sorry for him, but Sun Ce couldn't help but think that he had just come to Su Yunqing and said bad things about his old master, isn't this not good?

Even if Yuan Shu was really bad, he was Sun Ce's lord after all, how could Sun Ce say bad things about him to Su Yunqing just after he left Yuan Shu? Somewhere is that?

So Sun Ce opened his mouth, but in the end, he couldn't say a word reads;.

But contrary to Sun Ce's expectations, Su Yunqing spoke first before he scolded Yuan Shu: "Yuan Shu, this pit, when I am as stupid as him, I am embarrassed to show such a low-level sowing discord, he doesn't feel ashamed, I feel ashamed for him." โ€

Sun Ce: "......"

Although some of the words are not very clear, Su Yunqing is indeed mocking Yuan Shu, right?

Of course, for a woman to speak like this...... Directly, Sun Ce was also a little surprised.

Su Yunqing didn't care about this, Yuan Shu's letter and Sun Ce arrived almost together, at this time, after mocking Yuan Shu's IQ, she said directly to Sun Ce: "Don't worry, of course I believe in you, back then, Wentai Gong was a person who valued love and righteousness, I believe you would not do such a thing, not to mention that you also deliberately defeated Liu Miao for him before you left Yuan Shu, it can be seen that you are not a treacherous and cunning villain." โ€

Hearing this, Sun Ce finally breathed a sigh of relief, Su Yunqing didn't mind that he had turned his back on Yuan Shu.

Sun Ce has always done things above board and with a clear conscience, only Yuan Shu is the matter, although Yuan Shu is sorry for him first, but it is also a fact that he turned his back on Yuan Shu, and now this is not a problem at all, so it is naturally the best.

And then Su Yunqing's arrangement also made Sun Ce feel that Su Yunqing really attached importance to him, not to mention that he had specially asked Zhao Yun's garrison division to ensure his safety, but after he came, Su Yunqing had prepared a temporary location for him, and the food and accommodation of his soldiers were also properly arranged.

"I have already chosen a few places, all of which are relatively good, and the general can choose the one he likes," said this, Su Yunqing added: "Of course, I also hope that the general can understand, because the general has not made meritorious contributions in the state, and now he does not have too many soldiers and horses, so what is assigned to the general is only a small county town, and I hope the general will not mind." โ€

Of course Sun Ce didn't mind, he made great contributions to Yuan Shu's hard work, but Yuan Shu didn't even want to give Sun Ce a small village, on the contrary, he had just come here, Su Yunqing had already thought about everything for him, as for the location of the garrison, the small county town was very good.

Sun Ce himself also knows that he is young and has no merit, and the army he brought over is only a few thousand people, and it is already very good to be able to give him a small county town, if Su Yunqing really carves a large area for him, Sun Ce will think that Su Yunqing is unreliable, and even think that this is a lie to him, and now it is very good.

Thinking like this, Sun Ce couldn't help but look at the map, the place that Su Yunqing had chosen on the map had been circled with red pen and ink, Sun Ce found that Su Yunqing said that he had chosen it for him, and he really did his best to choose it.

Su Yunqing didn't give him any remote towns in the middle of nowhere, nor did she choose some places with very bad geographical locations, on the contrary, the places she circled Sun Ce were not the best, but the conditions in all aspects were not bad, and it was very suitable as Sun Ce's garrison.

Sun Ce simply didn't look at it, he directly bowed his hand to Su Yunqing and said: "One qiฤ“ but it depends on the decision of the lord, and there is no objection to the strategy." โ€

Sun Ce's title has been changed, which means that he has sincerely joined the state, and his attitude is also very clear, Su Yunqing is kind to him, so he is willing to listen to Su Yunqing's dispatch, and Su Yunqing lets him go anywhere.

Hearing Sun Ce's words, Su Yunqing didn't continue to dwell on this, but nodded casually, and then said to Mao Jue next to him: "Xiaoxian, you can do these things, and you must arrange them properly." โ€

"Yes, my lord, don't worry."

So on the first day of joining the state, Sun Ce got the place he had always dreamed of, and Su Yunqing arranged a position for him and sealed the official position, and from then on Sun Ce was regarded as a member of the state.

Of course, in addition to Sun Ce, there is also Zhou Yu, who is also one that Su Yunqing attaches great importance to, and Zhou Yu of course also accompanied Sun Ce.

For Zhou Yu, Sun Ce is much more enthusiastic than when he treats his own affairs, he told Su Yunqing how well Zhou Yu is both civil and military, and the art of war and strategy are top-notch, and he simply praised Zhou Yu as the first person in heaven and earth, regardless of the fact that Zhou Yu is about the same age as him, both of them are less than twenty years old, and they are still hairy boys in the eyes of many people now.

Su Yunqing didn't mind, not to mention that she also knew how powerful Zhou Yu was, thinking about it, she said very simply: "Since this is the case, let him study with Wen He first, and in the future, you can also lead the troops together to go on the expedition, and it is also reassuring to have one article and one martial arts." โ€

Hearing Su Yunqing's words, Sun Ce didn't have any ideas, but Zhou Yu was really surprised.

For Zhou Yu, Su Yunqing did a good job in the previous matter, and he was also grateful to Su Yunqing, but if he really wanted to say that this situation was also in his expectation, Su Yunqing was not the kind of pit goods of Yuan Shu after all, so he didn't feel much about it.

But now he really didn't expect Su Yunqing's words.

Who is Jia Xu? That was the person who entered the state when Su Yunqing was just a small captain, and then he single-handedly planned to make the state stronger, and finally pushed Su Yunqing to the position of the state pastor.

Zhou Yu is not stupid, so he knows very well that in Su Yunqing's current lineup of strategists, it seems that Xun Yu and Mao Jue are very valued, but in fact, the highest status in Su Yunqing's mind is Jia Xu, and Jia Xu is indeed the first person in the state besides Su Yunqing.

Zhou Yu originally thought that letting him go to Xun Yu Mao Jue would be the top of the sky, but Su Yunqing directly threw him to Jia Xu, what this meant Zhou Yu knew too well, but it was precisely because he was clear that he had to be convinced.

Although Su Yunqing is a woman, she is indeed stronger than most men in many aspects.

It was only at this time that Zhou Yu felt that the word 'lord' in his mouth that he called Su Yunqing became heartfelt.

Su Yunqing didn't feel that she had made any great decisions, she just warmly hosted a banquet to entertain Sun Ce, Zhou Yu and Sun Jian's old department who came with Sun Ce.

Looking at these people, Su Yunqing was very happy, the step of taking in Sun Ce was simply too right, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu needless to say, Sun Ce also brought the four generals under Sun Jian that year, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, and the four of them, all of them are experienced veterans who can take charge on their own, which is simply a big profit.

Only Jia Xu was not very happy.

Yes, it is indeed a very happy thing that they have added six top talents at one time this time, but Jia Xu knows very well that Zhou Yu is the only one who is really highly intelligent.

Yes, they only have one more high-IQ Zhou Yu, but those generals who broke his heart suddenly have five more.

Five!

Hehe.

How happy is this!

This place is simply poisonous, and the talents attracted are all military generals!

I'm tired! (โ•ฏโ€ตโ–กโ€ฒ)โ•ฏ๏ธตโ”ปโ”โ”ป
