Chapter 26 Detachment
Yuan Shujun's scouts moved very quickly, and within a few days, they heard the true news of Sun Jian's camp.
The news is very chilling - Sun Jian did receive Kong Ling's 200,000 stone grain and grass, but other things have not been found for the time being.
This is what the potter deliberately arranged - the so-called false and real, true and false, and one point of truth in three points of truth, sometimes it can play a role in sowing discord.
What horses, halberds, and arrows are all made up, but the most important 200,000 stone grains and grass are true!
The same is true, it is enough.
Yuan Shu consulted with Yan Xiang again.
"Two hundred thousand stones...... 200,000 stone ...... Only 200,000 stones of grain and grass were found, what is going on? Yuan Shu asked Yan Xiangdao.
Yan Xiang lowered his head and thought for a while, then said, "Two hundred thousand stones of grain and grass are huge and difficult to hide!" The rest of the hundred horses, three hundred pairs of leather armor, and so on, were decimal numbers, and were easy to hide. ”
Yuan Shu clenched his fists and said angrily: "Sun Jian concealed the military needs and did not report them...... Why? ”
Yan Xiang smiled bitterly: "Ming Gong is wise, why bother asking? ”
"Humph!" Yuan Shu slapped the table case and said angrily: "Sun Jian, dare to have a different heart!" ”
Yan Xiang pondered for a while and said, "This is also expected, although Sun Jian is nominally under the lord's account, his personality is like a fire, strong and warlike, and he has been killing for a long time, how can he be a person who has lived under the people for a long time?" He killed Zhang Shi and Wang Rui for the lord before, and I can see that this person is a ruthless person, and it is definitely not easy to deal with, how can such a person serve the lord for a long time? ”
Yuan Shu hurriedly said: "Sun Jian has the heart of self-reliance, so what should I do now?" Denounce Sun Jian, or directly send troops to deal with him? ”
"No, now that the princes of the Eighteenth Route are about to crusade against Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian is the front of the lord's command, and he himself is a brave general! Besides, Sun Jian was only a little abnormal at this time, and he had not yet shown his form, so the lord must not be in a hurry, and he pressed it tightly, which was not good. ”
Yuan Shu nodded and said, "Then you say, what should I do?" ”
Yan Xiang pondered it carefully, and then said, "Didn't that Kong Ling want to submit to the lord?" Now that Nanyang is fixed, Jingzhou is not peaceful, and Sun Jian has such a thing again, let's not move the land of Yuzhou for the time being...... Since this is the case, then you might as well accept Kong Ling's surrender and let him help us contain Sun Jian. ”
Yuan Shu closed his eyes, raised his head and thought quietly for a long time, and said slowly: "Feasible...... But what should Sun Jian do? Do you want Yuan to play stupid with him? ”
Yan Xiang smiled bitterly a few times and shook his head silently.
For Sun Jian, Yan Xiang has also seen it a few times, for this tiger, Yan Xiang is respectful and fearful, and he is extremely brave and heroic.
What he is afraid of is that he dares to kill anyone, whether it is a yellow scarf, a thief, a water coward, or an official of the court, all those who come are not afraid, it can really be described as a tiger/forcing the sky.
For such a person, if you don't weigh it well, it will be a dead end.
After being silent for a long time, Yan Xiang said slowly: "I always feel that at this time, it is better not to provoke Sun Jian for the time being. ”
Yuan Shu was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "I can not ask him about his guilt, but I can't let him do anything!" You don't have to knock him on to let him know for himself! ”
Yan Xiang looked at Yuan Shu's expression and hesitated: "Duke Ming...... How are you going to beat Sun Jian? ”
Yuan Shu said slowly: "Didn't he receive Kong Ling's 150,000 stones, grain, grass, leather armor, horses, ordnance and other things? I wrote a letter, saying that Kong Ling was already my vassal, and asked him to return these materials to Kong Ling! ”
Yan Xiang hurriedly said: "If this is the case, wouldn't it show that Ming Gong already knew that Sun Jian was hiding the materials given by Kong Ling behind our army's back?" ”
Yuan Shu said solemnly: "I just want him to know!" Yuan didn't directly break this matter, but he left him a little thin noodles...... Asking Sun Jian to return these materials and Kong Ling on my behalf is to win over Kong Ling and to warn Sun Jian...... I think he naturally knows it in his heart. ”
Yan Xiang sighed: "If Sun Jian doesn't agree to pay it back, what should Ming Gong do?" ”
Yuan Shu sneered a few times and said, "I told him in my letter that I would show him as a general in the near future...... One reward and one punishment, this is the step I gave him, he must get it! If not, the other person is already in Yuzhou, I will send someone to cut off his return to Changsha, cut off his grain and grass, and see if he listens or not! ”
Yan Xiang was helpless in his heart, knowing that Yuan Shu's mind had been decided, and it was inconvenient to say more.
"That's right!"
Yuan Shu suddenly remembered one more thing: "Reply to Xu Jing for me in the coming day, and bring back the 50,000 stone grain that Sun Jian sent me, I don't miss his grain and grass, Sun Jian has a different heart, this Kong Ling has to be wooed!" Please Xu Jing escorted 50,000 stone grains and grass back for Kong Ling for me, and comforted him with kind words, so that he could convey Kong Ling, I am willing to accept Kong Ling's surrender, let him be optimistic about Sun Jian for me, it will become a big event in the future, and I will not treat him badly! ”
"No."
*********************************
Yuan Shujun's movements were very fast, and almost all of these matters were completed within ten days.
After receiving Yuan Shu's news, the reactions of the two families were different.
Needless to say, Kong Ling was so happy that she almost didn't fart, not only did she get Yuan Shu's promise to resolve the crisis, but the 200,000 stone grains and grass that she had sent out before were sent back untouched!
What's even more surprising is that not only did they get back the grain and grass, but also got a hundred war horses, three hundred leather armor, three hundred halberds, three thousand arrows and other miscellaneous items.
On the other hand, on Sun Jian's side, the state is completely different.
The moment he got the letter sent by Yuan Shu, Sun Jian almost didn't push the messenger out directly.
But he still has a shred of sanity...... Yuan Shu is his biggest shareholder at present!
Not to mention Yuan Shu's current prestige in the south, just because he can now strangle his retreat and grain and grass route in the rear, Sun Jian can't offend him, and he doesn't dare to offend him.
It's really breathless!
"Yuan Shu, this guy is really capricious!" Sun Jianqi's two eyes were bulging, and his cheeks were inflated, like a violent bullfrog, which was extremely terrifying: "I was asked to find a way to get rid of Kong Ling before, but now I have been surrendered by Kong Ling, and if I surrender, I will be surrendered, why do you want me to withdraw from the army and give it to him!" ”
Sun Jian bowed his head, and Cheng Pu sighed: "In this way, it should be that Yuan Shu knew that our army received 200,000 stone of grain and grass from Kong Ling, but only gave him 50,000 stone as a warning as a punishment." ”
Sun Jian slammed the case with a slip: "Okay, even if he knows about this matter, he wants to punish me, then I will return 150,000 stone grain and grass to Kong Ling!" …… But why did you ask me to send a war horse to Kong Ling? Sending leather armor? Sending ordnance? …… I didn't fucking get these things from Kong Ling! ”
Under Sun Jian's account, all the generals looked at each other.
Everyone didn't figure this out, and they didn't understand what kind of medicine was sold in Yuan Shu's gourd.
Moments later......
Jun Sima Han Dang hesitated and said, "Could it be that Kong Ling deliberately lied to Yuan Shu and falsely reported these things...... You want to blackmail our army, right? ”
Cheng Pu blinked: "That Kong Ling is a famous scholar with a lot of prestige, and he has the style of a gentleman...... Can you do such a shameless thing? ”
Zu Mao also shook his head: "I don't believe it, let's not say whether Kong Ling is a gentleman or not, just such a tricky and shameless scheme is definitely not something he can come up with, I think it's just a misunderstanding." ”
Zhu Zhi, Huang Gai and others also shook their heads together: "Yes, this thing doesn't look like Kong Ling did it, it's not like, it's not like." ”
Sun Jian's eyes were not good, his fists were clenched, and the green tendons on the back of his hands were exposed: "If this is the case, it is Yuan Shu who deliberately humiliated me with this, I have long seen that he is narrow-minded, I can't imagine that he has reached such a situation, this person must be suspicious of me!" So do it. ”
Cheng Pu Laocheng was solemn and said: "My lord, even if this is the case, but at this moment, we can't afford to provoke Yuan Shu, and Yuan Shu is still our reliance, after all, the Yuan family is extremely powerful, and it is entrenched in the entire Central Plains, and at this moment it is entrenched in the rear of our army. ”
Sun Jian closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and said, "Demou, I understand your words...... I swallowed this breath! And in the future, I will have to ask Yuan Shu and Kong Ling for more money! ”
Several ministers under Sun Jian's account looked at each other quite worriedly.
Although they each knew in their hearts that with Sun Jian's character, they would definitely not live under Yuan Shu for a long time, but in the current situation, it is indeed the best choice to devote themselves to the account of Yuan Shu, the third prince of the fourth world! The benefits can also be maximized!
After all, with Sun Jian's stubborn temper, just by killing the assassin of Jingzhou and Nanyang Taishou, the princes of the world may not be able to tolerate him, but with Yuan Shu covering, others will not dare to say anything.
However, this incident accelerated Sun Jian's idea of independence, and Sun Jian had already given birth to a desire to break away from betrayal at this moment, which Sun Jian's generals did not want to see for the time being......
