Quan Rou held the bowl and devoured it, the wind swept the clouds, and there was no image at all. Pour two large bowls of rice and a large pot of meat into his stomach, and then wipe his mouth and raise his wine glass. "General, I'll give you a toast."

Sun Ce raised his wine and gestured. Quan Rou tilted her neck and drank it all. "Happy, happy."

Sun Ce couldn't help but laugh. After a day of grievance, seeing Quan Rou's appearance, he was in a much better mood. There were not so many rules in the camp, so Quan Rou washed her hands in the basin, wiped her face, and talked about persuasion.

He crossed the river early yesterday morning and rushed to Guling to meet Guo Yi and Wang Sheng, and conveyed Sun Ce's request. Guo Yi and Wang Sheng ignored it at all, believing that Sun Ce could not break through Guling, and was very frivolous, and Quan Rou was driven out without saying a few words. Quan Rou knew in his heart that persuasion was originally a formality, so he was not in a hurry, and found various reasons to stay in Guling for one night, and checked the defense of Guling in the name of visiting friends. When he returned to Qiantang, he knew that Sun Ce's main force had rushed to Chadu, so he came non-stop again. When he arrived here, Sun Ce had already blocked Guling's only way to retreat, and the situation was completely reversed.

Quan Rou was very excited and disappointed, it was a pity that such a surprise attack did not have his share.

"Your merit is no less than beheading, so why rush it." Sun Ce smiled: "Let's talk about the situation in Guling." ”

"Hey, these scholars." Quan Rou smiled before saying a word, and shook her head again and again. "General, guess who I saw?"

"Who?"

"Shen Zhi of the Shen family."

Sun Ce smiled but said nothing.

Quan Rou suddenly didn't know, and talked about his encounter with Shen Zhi in Guling. "Shen Zhi is Sheng Xian's son-in-law, Sheng Xian was originally very important to Guo Yi, and recommended Shen Zhi to Guo Yi, saying that Shen Zhi knows the art of war and has martial arts, so he can take on important responsibilities. Unexpectedly, he was ridiculed by Guo Yi, which made Sheng Xian very faceless, so he had to invite himself out of the town. How can you say that these people are so stupid that they still look down on martial artists during the war, and they are undefeated. ”

"Shen Zhi is in my camp. Sheng Xian is also there. ”

Jeon Rou was taken aback. "Are they here to surrender?"

"Sheng Xian was captured, Shen Zhi didn't come to help Guo Yi in the first place, he came to save Sheng Xian." Sun Ce told the cause and effect again, Quan Rou stroked his palm and smiled, and shook his head again and again. "No wonder I persuaded Shen Zhi to attach himself to the general, Shen Zhi was noncommittal, it turned out that there was such a story."

"In addition to Guo Yi and Wang Sheng, who else are there?"

"There are also Zheng Ping of the Zheng family in Shanyin, He Chun of the He family, Xie Xuan of the Xie family, and some bandits, the number varies, the strongest are Huang Longluo and Zhou Bo, more than 10,000 county soldiers, more than 10,000 bandits, a total of about 23,000 people." Quan Rou laughed evilly: "It's just a rabble, vulnerable, the general doesn't have to worry." ”

Sun Ce wasn't worried about those rabble, but with so many Sanyin families opposing him, he was still very uneasy. He is not very familiar with the Zheng family, but he still has a little impression of the He family and the Xie family, the famous general He Qi seems to be from the He family, and Xie Cheng is also from the Xie family.

Now these people are in Guling.

"Are you familiar with them?"

"A little bit of it. Among the families of Shanyin, the Zheng family is considered to have made a fortune relatively early, the ancestor is Zheng Ji, the capital of the Western Regions of the former dynasty, Zheng Ping's grandfather is called Zheng Hong, who is the Taiwei of the Xiaozhang Emperor Dynasty, and is quite famous in Shanyin......"

Sun Ce was stunned when he heard this. This Zheng family is not small, it is actually after Zheng Ji, that is the hero he has admired for a long time, the five car divisions, the first protector of the Western Regions, and one of the heroes of the Han Dynasty to establish a dominant position in the Western Regions. How can such a person become his own enemy?

"Why are they against me and prevent me from entering the country? Is it for Yuan Shao? ”

"Whether it's for Yuan Shao or not, I don't know. I guess there are two real reasons: one is that they are arrogant and look down on the warriors; The second is that the generals want to give up the fields, and they are unwilling to give up the industry. ”

"I didn't ask for their ...... for nothing"

Quan Rou smiled, smiling mysteriously. "General, what you are willing to give them, Yuan Shao is willing to give, and what you refuse to give them, Yuan Shao is willing to give. To be honest, if I weren't a martial artist, I might not be willing to support the general. ”

Sun Ce immediately closed his mouth. He knew that he shouldn't explain, it was meaningless to explain, and those people were not deaf, so it was impossible not to hear the wind at all, not to mention that Shen Zhi was in Guling City not long ago. At most, he is an equivalent exchange, but Yuan Shao can give them more benefits, why should they support him and not Yuan Shao? As for the collapse of the world, who cares so much. It's okay to talk about it, but if you really want to cut your own flesh, few people are willing, and it's not okay to take less. However, the biggest obstacle to changing the law is these vested interests. Trying to win their support by buying them will only make the change fall in the middle of the way, or become a tool for them to make more profits.

Quan Rou said very truthfully, he, like Ling Cao, Dong Xi and others, if he wasn't ostracized and his career blocked, who would want to support him?

If there is no bloodshed, how can the law be changed. You have to be ruthless when you should be ruthless, otherwise you won't be able to do anything.

——

At the head of Guling City, Guo Yi and Wang Sheng stood side by side, looking into the distance, with a sad face. In the distance, the fire at the mouth of the stream is lit up, like stars, reflected in the lake. The breeze came slowly, the stars shook slightly, and there was a sense of vertigo.

Both were a little dizzy.

In the morning, he had just rejected Quan Rou's persuasion in a domineering manner, and was cut off by Sun Ce in the afternoon. Sun Ce was like a phoenix bird spewing with anger, falling from the sky and suddenly appearing behind them. Suddenly, the tide turned. Even the most naïve people know that the situation is very unfavorable for them. Guling has limited grain storage, and the back road is cut off, even if Sheng Xian rushes to Yuji and collects grain, he can't get to Guling. In fact, they didn't dare to count on Sheng Xian at all, Yu Ji didn't have any soldiers, and Sheng Xian was not Sun Ce's opponent at all.

Guo Yi regretted a little, he shouldn't have rejected Sheng Xian's recommendation, he should have let Shen Zhi stay, at least he could listen to his opinion.

"Prince, the matter has come to this, what can I do?"

Wang Sheng is nearly seventy years old, with gray hair and a wrinkled face. He stroked his sparse beard and groaned for a long time. "If you lose your horse, you don't know if it's a blessing. Please ask the Ming Mansion to send warriors to sneak across the river, contact Yan Baihu, and ask him to send troops to attack and harass Sun Ce's rear, cut off Sun Ce's back road, and attack back and forth, maybe he can turn defeat into victory, break Sun Ce, and finish his work in one battle. ”

Guo Yi glanced at He Chun in the distance, and said in a low voice: "I heard that Guo Chun is capable of fighting from his son He Qi, why don't you send someone to Taimo and invite him to come to relieve the siege, but instead go to find Yan Baihu?" Yan Baihu is a thief, and An can beat Sun Ce? ”

Wang Sheng smiled bitterly. "He Qi has few soldiers, Taimo is remote, and he goes back and forth for nearly a thousand miles, if he summons Yan Baihu quickly, he will cross the river soon."

Guo Yi sighed repeatedly. The battle in the afternoon made him have little confidence in the combat effectiveness of the bandits. Sun Ce's subordinates are too strong, Yan Baihu can still toss and turn in the mountains, go out of the mountain, and fight against Sun Ce, does he still have a chance? But the matter has come to this, except for Yan Baihu, no one can count on him, so he can only treat the dead horse as a live horse doctor, accept Wang Sheng's suggestion, and send someone to contact Yan Baihu.
