Chapter 121: The Puzzle
At this moment, the eyes of everyone in the camp fell on the sack. In the eyes of Sun Jian and others, this sack of grain was the cause of this defeat, and it was the reason why the soldiers and brothers in the army were killed; And this sack of grain is full of doubts in the eyes of Wang Lei and Cao Cao, and the two can be sure that the army does not have such old grain.
Wang Lei said: "Brother Wentai, I can guarantee that there is no such old grain in the army. ”
Sun Jian snorted and said, "How much is Your Excellency's guarantee worth?" Hmph, what kind of situation the army's food is, only you know. ”
Cao Cao said softly: "Brother Wentai, if you don't believe it, you can follow us to inspect the food in the army." “
Sun Jian flicked his sleeves and said disdainfully: "You are responsible for the supply of grain, so you naturally know the situation of grain. Even if you take me to inspect the grain, it will be good grain, and it is impossible to give me the old grain. ”
In a word, there is a deep sense of distrust.
Cao Cao didn't like it in his heart, he had already explained it very seriously, but Sun Jian didn't believe it.
Wang Lei can understand Sun Jian's feelings, and he is not happy when the army under his command is completely annihilated. He looked sincere and said slowly: "Brother Wentai, I can completely understand your current mood. But believe it or not, I can pat my chest and say that Brother Meng De and I absolutely guarantee that there will be no stale food in the army, let alone let Brother Wentai's brother be in danger. Otherwise, why would I send soldiers to the rescue when I get the news? Wouldn't it be good for you to be destroyed? So, please believe us. ”
After a pause, Wang Lei said: "If I remember correctly, Brother Wentai sent a messenger back to urge food, which was given by Yuan Shu at that time. According to this inference, Yuan Shu can be asked. ”
Sun Jian's eyes lit up and said, "In this way, it must be Yuan Shu's doing!" ”
He gritted his teeth, hatred in his eyes.
It is about the lives of thousands of soldiers, but also the life of Zu Mao, Sun Jian's mood has reached a point on the verge of eruption, and now Wang Lei proposed that it is related to Yuan Shu, Sun Jian instantly found a place to vent.
"Let's go, follow me to Yuan Shu's barracks!"
Sun Jian lifted the ancient ingot knife, didn't care about the blood stains on his body, and prepared to take revenge.
Sun Ce also grabbed the big iron spear and prepared to fight. The people under Sun Ce's command were all indignant and found a person to vent to. Everyone was aggressive and ready to go out to greet them.
At this time, a loud shout rang out: "Stop! ”
The sound was like thunder, making Sun Jian, Sun Ce, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others all stop.
It was Wang Lei who spoke.
Wang Lei knew very well that once Sun Jian and Sun Ce went to find Yuan Shu, the situation would definitely get out of control, which was not what Wang Lei wanted to see. Wang Lei stood up and said in a deep voice: "Sun Jian, this is a military camp, not a place for you to go wild at will." You are the one who runs the army, don't you know the rules of the barracks? If you mess around, what alliance will you have? Just disperse, no need to crusade against Dong Zhuo. ”
Sun Jian turned his head and looked directly at Wang Lei, his gaze was as sharp as a knife.
He took a sharp breath and walked towards Wang Lei with a knife. The ancient ingot knife flickered with cold light, revealing a chilling killing intent. Every time he took a step forward, he put tremendous pressure on Wang Lei.
Wang Lei was not afraid and faced it with his head held high.
Not long after, Sun Jian came to Wang Lei's face, his eyes widened and he was murderous.
Wang Lei chuckled and said, "Why should Brother Wentai be like this? ”
Sun Jian snorted and said, "You say, how should the matter of Yuan Shu's distribution of Chen Liang be resolved?" If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, Sun Jian won't give up! Even if it breaks up unhappily, I will not hesitate to do it. ”
Wang Lei said: "Please rest assured, Brother Wentai, Lei will definitely give you an explanation." Brother Wentai and the generals are invited to wash up, and then take a short rest, and after lunch, I will ask the alliance leader to gather all the princes to discuss this matter. ”
"Okay, I'll believe you once!"
Sun Jian flicked his sleeves and turned his back to Wang Lei.
Wang Lei and Cao Cao left with interest, and after leaving the camp, Cao Cao said: "Brother Xian, if Yuan Shu did this, he will not leave any handle." If you want to investigate this matter and blame Yuan Shu, it is almost impossible. ”
Wang Lei said: "It's man-made! ”
Cao Cao's expression was also solemn, and he said, "Yes, do your best!" ”
The two parted ways, Cao Cao returned to his camp, and Wang Lei also returned to the camp to report the matter to Han Fu. After Han Fu heard this, his expression instantly fell, and his eyes were full of murder. Sun Jian's victory made Han Fu see the hope of winning the Tiger Prison Pass, and even more so the hope of attacking Luoyang, which was his opportunity to leave a name in history, but it was destroyed by Yuan Shu.
For a while, Han Fu's heart was full of murderous intent.
Han Fu said in a deep voice: "Wang Lei, are you sure that Yuan Shu is a ghost?" ”
Wang Lei said: "It has basically been determined that the grain in the camp has been checked by me and Cao Cao, and there can be no old grain." And the food eaten by the soldiers under Sun Jian's command belonged to the old grain, which was not, and Yuan Shu took the initiative to take over the matter at that time, which was even more suspicious. He believed that it was likely that Yuan Shu was jealous of Sun Jian's military exploits and deliberately framed Sun Jian. ”
Han Fu closed his eyes and pondered for a moment.
Immediately, Han Fu asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Wang Lei's expression was serious, and he said coldly: "The news of Sun Jian's defeat has spread in the camp, and it will definitely have a huge impact. To appease Sun Jian, it must be dealt with seriously. ”
Han Fu nodded and said, "I'll leave it to you!" I fully cooperate. ”
Wang Lei hugged his fists and said: "Go down and prepare!" ”
Han Fu waved his hand, and Wang Lei retreated.
Wang Lei returned to his tent and invited Guo Jia. Wang Lei told what happened in detail and asked: "Fengxiao, this matter must have been done by Yuan Shu, but how to make Yuan Shu admit it, how to punish Yuan Shu, what advice do you have?" ”
Guo Jia frowned and said, "Lord, this matter is not easy to handle!" ”
"First, although there is no stale grain in the army, Yuan Shu can insist that there is stale grain in the camp, and it just so happens that Sun Jian got this batch of stale grain. In this way, Yuan Shu turned his responsibility for himself into the responsibility of the coalition forces, or the responsibility of the alliance leader Han Fu. ”
Second, Yuan Shu could take a more rogue approach. Sun Jian's army was defeated, almost the entire army was wiped out, and there were less than 100 people who came back, and most of these people survived, most of them were in good health, and they could only run back because of the low impact of food. Yuan Shu can retort that Sun Jian was careless in defeat, and deliberately said that it was the cause of food. Even if we know that it was caused by food, it is difficult to accuse Yuan Shu without a soldier's proof. ”
"Third, even if Yuan Shu admits that he did it, how to deal with Yuan Shu? Killing Yuan Shu can provoke the resistance of the soldiers under Yuan Shu's command, so that it will be diseased. If you don't kill it, it becomes a punishment for Yuan Shu, but it's just a punishment for Yuan Shu, can Sun Jian agree? Sun Jian's army was completely wiped out, and there was a brother who died in this battle, he would not agree! ”
Guo Jia carefully analyzed, and after Wang Lei listened, his expression was cold.
This is not easy to do!
If it is not handled well, I am afraid that there will be problems here in this meeting, not to mention the things that will follow. At that time, Wang Lei's plan will also come to naught, and it will be difficult to achieve the goal of the alliance.
