Chapter 104: A True Hero

In the battle of Shenting, the conceited and brave Sun Ce's thirteen horsemen dared to wander under the noses of Liu Xuan's tens of thousands of troops, so the first battle shocked the entire Jiangdong!

But today, Sun Ce has seen a hero who seems to be more bloody and courageous than himself, as a prince of one side, but he dares to visit one side in person under the eyes of a strong enemy in the north. This is more than a grade higher than when he took a dozen or so martial arts generals to wander around the Divine Pavilion!

Even Sun Ce also knew that Zhang Xiu rushed to Jiangdong without too much precaution, but this still made people admire Zhang Xiu's courage.

At this stage, the forces of Zhang Xiu and Sun Ce are interdependent. Zhang Xiu's Huainan needed an ally with abundant money and food to support his war against the Central Plains, and Sun Ce also needed Zhang Xiu to attract the attention of the powerful forces in the north, leaving Sun Ce enough time to annex the entire Jiangnan and Jingzhou regions, and it was best to make Sun Ce fully stock up on food and train his troops to prepare for the conquest of the world.

On the one hand, because of the mutual needs of fundamental interests, on the other hand, the other party is really not a threat to themselves. In this situation, Zhang Xiu and Sun Ce's friendship is the inevitable result. In fact, Sun Ce sent an envoy to Shouchun with heavy gifts as early as half a month ago, and he also expected that Huainan would also send people to the alliance, but what he never expected was that Huainan's good envoy came so quickly, and it was none other than Zhang Xiu himself!

Therefore, Sun Ce was able to see Zhang Xiu today, which was an expected but unexpected thing.

The knot between the two parties is the result of inevitability, so Zhang Xiu will naturally not be troubled by Sun Ce when he comes to Jiangdong, but will secretly protect him. Although it is said that Zhang Xiu's life in this line is actually pinched in the palm of his hand, as long as the senior management of the Sun Group is not stupid, they will not have other thoughts about Zhang Xiu at all.

After all, according to the current situation, the alliance between the two parties is the best result, and there is no need to go to house arrest to coerce or hurt Zhang Xiu. At that time, not only will the reaction of Zhang Xiu's Huainan subordinates exceed the scope that the Sun clan can grasp, but it will also have a great adverse impact on the Sun clan, who has just become one of the princes.

So don't look at Zhang Xiu's trip to Jiangdong, it seems to be rash and unprepared, but in fact, Zhang Xiu has a clear grasp of the risk assessment, and even Zhang Xiu has achieved the point of fearlessness in the grasp of interests and people's hearts!

If you have the ability, you will be under house arrest and threaten me, and it will be difficult for you to get involved in Huainan if you kill me. After all, if something happens to me, the Huainan Group will be defeated, but you definitely can't afford not to eat Huainan under Cao Cao's nose. When Cao Cao annexed Huainan, Liu Da'er's urine was also determined to lose Guangling, although Cao Cao, who occupied the entire Central Plains, would still focus on the duel with Yuan Shao, but a traitor like Cao Cao who had the ambition to swallow heaven and earth would definitely take action against the rising Sun Wu regime.

So I'm safe and sound, it's really the best result that you Sun can hope for.

Therefore, Zhang Xiu dared to go to Jiangdong to negotiate peace without fearing not to bring a single attendant. even dared to design and abduct Sun Ce's arm Zhou Yu halfway!

Of course, in fact, it is useless to bring an entourage, if Sun Ce really wants to do himself, it is useless to take a few hundred relatives to ride into this Wu County, and it is just a few hundred lives in vain. And if you don't bring an entourage, you can not only show your courage not to lose to Sun Ce in front of a talented person like Zhou Yu, but also help yourself to have more confidence and bargaining chips in the negotiation with Sun Ce.

Why is this, because since Zhang Xiu dared to put down all the important military and political affairs of Huainan and come to Jiangdong, it shows that Zhang Xiu's group is on the right track, and it shows that the forces on the Huainan side have their own system of civil, military, military and political affairs, and have the ability to resist Cao Cao's struggle for hegemony in the Central Plains battlefield!

And these, when Zhang Xiu negotiated with Sun Ce, turned into Zhang Xiu's capital bargaining chips, so that Zhang Xiu could gain more initiative in this upcoming alliance!

Based on the above considerations, Zhang Xiu made the decision to rush to Jiangdong. As it stands, the effect of this move is extremely successful. For example, Sun Ce now has a heartfelt admiration for Zhang Xiu in his heart.

When ordinary people see a person who is similar to themselves, they either sympathize with each other or compare themselves with jealousy. Different attitudes and reactions depend on the person's cultivation and bearing, and Sun Ce, the little overlord who was born in a Jiangdong family, is naturally not a person who has no cultivation and has a small amount of energy. So he had a sense of admiration for Zhang Xiu's courage.

And Zhang Xiu's feelings for Sun Ce at the moment are more sighing than sighing. sighed because Sun Ce was a short-lived hero, but sighed because he saw a hero in troubled times, a figure who really existed in history.

Sun Ce already had the expectation that Zhou Yu would choose the path again at this time, and it would be false to say that he was not reluctant, but Sun Ce knew that his best friend of the young man had strong opinions, and he had his own considerations and ideas! Historically, as the main battle faction of Eastern Wu, Zhou Yu led Lu Su and others to join hands with Wolong Zhuge to cut off Sun Quan's heart to surrender to Cao and make him split the case to resist the war.

Besides, before he started his own business, there was no subordinate relationship between Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. From the perspective of family background, Zhou Yu's family is even more prominent, after all, there have been three prince-level figures, and in modern times, there are *****-level characters in the family, a typical family standing at the top of the pyramid!

As for the Sun family, although it has a wide reputation in Jiangdong, it is the name of the Sun family who has been fighting bandits and thieves for many years, and the Sun family is a powerful family in the local area, and the three princes like the Zhou family are worlds apart!

After Sun Jian's death, the Sun family, who had many enemies in Jiangdong, did not even dare to stay in Jiangdong's hometown, and under the protection of his uncle Wu Jing and other uncles, Sun Ce led the family to move to the territory of his father's original boss Yuan Shu. It was at this time that Sun Ce met Zhou Yu, who was born in the Lujiang family.

At that time, it was Zhou Yu who took the initiative to give up his house and support Sun Ce's family like his own son with Sun Ce. At this time, the friendship between Sun Zhou and Zhou can be said to be so deep that they are closer than brothers.

When Sun Ce served in Yuan Shu's army, and then later borrowed troops to recover Jiangdong, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were brothers throughout the period. Zhou Yu also provided necessary help to Sun Jian at his most critical time. But the relationship between the two is still not a subordinate relationship between superiors and subordinates.

You must know that although Yuan Shu likes to die, he also has a bit of vision. Since it can be seen that Zhou Yu is talented, it is natural to know that Sun Ce is by no means a person who sends people under the fence. So he only sent 3,000 soldiers and horses to Sun Ce, with the intention of letting him fend for himself in Jiangdong, which had no food, grass and ordnance to replenish.

However, at this time, Zhou Yu took some of the soldiers of his uncle Zhou Shang, who was then the Taishou of Danyang, to supplement Sun Ce, and openly and secretly provided food and grass for Sun Ce's expanding army, and until Sun Ce was self-sufficient in Jiangdong. At this time, Yuan Shu learned that some of his subordinates had elbows turned out, and immediately dismissed Zhou Shang from his position as Taishou and recalled him back to Shouchun.

Zhou Shang, who worked for Yuan Shu, had to take his nephew to ask Yuan Shu for his guilt, after all, the Zhou clan was still in Lujiang Shucheng in Jiangbei. When Zhou Yu received news from his uncle, he could only say goodbye to Sun Ce and return to Huainan.

Everyone knows what happened next. Sun Ce, who has gained a firm foothold, is getting bigger and bigger, and Zhou Yu has been secretly planning to defect to Jiangdong. Finally, Zhang Xiu defeated Yuan Shu, and Zhou Yu was able to rescue the clansmen from Shucheng. When Cao Cao conquered Huainan, Zhou Yu finally moved his family to Jiangdong, which had settled down.

Not only did he move his own family, Zhou Yu also moved to Jiangdong with his old friend Lu Su's family. It's just that Lu Su's grandmother died of illness, and the Lu family is a big family that attaches great importance to traditional Confucianism, so Lu Su escorted the coffin back to his hometown for burial, and he had to keep filial piety in his hometown for three years. This also greatly reduced Zhang Xiu's workload to recruit Jiangdong Junjie, and this trip only needs to convince Zhou Yu first to achieve the goal!

Having said so much, it is nothing more than to show that Zhou Yu and Sun Ce do not have any subordinate relationship until now, the two only have a tendency to be monarchs and ministers, but this tendency has been cut off by Zhang Xiusheng!

So Sun Ce has no other thoughts than regrets.

・・・・・・

Zhang Xiu only stayed in Wu County for three days, and then returned directly to Zhou Yu and returned to Danyang.

Except for Zhou Yu, no fourth person knew what Sun Ce and Zhang Xiu had talked about all night that night.

On the second day, Zhang Xiu enjoyed a handful of Jiangdong game delicacies, authentic Songjiang perch, large river tail carp, and even millet porridge seemed to be better than Danyang.

On the third day, Zhang Xiu prepared to return. Zhou Yu and Lu Su's family members were supposed to be brought back to Huainan together, but Zhang Xiu did not ask Zhou Yu to bring them home on the grounds that it was not easy to relocate, the boat and car were tiring, Huainan was surrounded by strong enemies, and the bandits were still in trouble. It also made Sun Ce and Zhou Yu admire and admire Zhang Xiu's meticulous thinking and mind.

Others will try to be safe because they are not familiar with Xinchen, but Zhang Xiu is because later generations will understand, knowing that Sun Ce and Zhou Yu are both heroic figures who act in a fair and upright manner, and they are definitely not people who will do something despicable to the world in private. Especially Sun Ce, in terms of character, Zhang Xiu himself gave Sun Ce full marks!

In Zhang Xiu's evaluation of Sun Ce: If Sun Ce is not above board, then there will be no so-called true heroes and heroes in the entire Three Kingdoms.

This is also the main subjective reason why Zhang Xiu dared to go to Jiangdong alone. If even Sun Ce is a despicable traitor who uses his relatives like Cao Cao, then the water of the Three Three Kingdoms will be too deep and too dark. There's no need to keep playing. Sun Ce is so immoral, so "Zhang Xiu, who is kind and simple by nature and has not yet experienced the big dye vat of society", can't fight Cao Mengde, who has the reputation of a traitorous male, and Uncle Liu Huang, who has always been obscure.
