Sun Ce pinched his fingers and was silent.

The sound of hooves is peculiar, the footsteps are chaotic, the soldiers are hurrying on the mountain road, and the soldiers of the scout camp are on guard on the slopes on both sides, and from time to time the horn of safety is sounded. The bandits did not chase after them, they may be celebrating, congratulating Sun Ce for withdrawing from Tongguan Mountain, and celebrating the heroes who fell from the sky.

was able to escape from the outflanking of Guo Wu, Xie Guanglong and dozens of nominal servants, and also shot and injured Xie Guanglong and seven or eight other people, this hero who is good at shooting with an ape arm is really powerful. If you connect with that beautiful beard and hear Guo Wu's Qu'a accent, Sun Ce has already guessed who it might be, but there is no conclusive evidence, so he can't jump to conclusions.

There are too many people who have the ability but fail to become famous, Guo Wu is an example. But it's also a trick to make people, if it weren't for him, Guo Wu might be the young general Qu A under Tai Shici, and he wouldn't be an enemy.

Isn't Liu Miao preparing for the war against Danyang, Tai Shici is not in Qu'a to help Liu Xuan, what are you doing in Yangxian. Specifically messing with me?

"General, what do you want?" Guo Jia rushed over and walked side by side with Sun Ce. "Still thinking about the assassin?"

Sun Ce nodded. "What did you find?"

Guo Jia looked at Sun Ce. "Did the general guess who it was?"

In the face of Guo Jia, Sun Ce did not hide it. "Judging from his appearance and martial arts, he should be the martial artist Tai Shici beside Liu Xuan."

Guo Jia smiled and shook the feather fan. "It doesn't matter what his name is, what matters is what he wants to do and what he can do. Judging from his martial arts, Liu Miao sent people to Yangxian to integrate Shanyue and make trouble behind our backs, so that Liu Miao could attack the northern part of Danyang with peace of mind, and even recover Lujiang and Jiujiang. General, since Liu Miao took the initiative to provoke, we have enough reasons to control Wu County, and return the color. As for Shanyue, it can't be solved in a day or two anyway, and it's useless to be in a hurry, and you can't lose a big one because of a small one. ”

Sun Ce smiled. "I'm not in a hurry. The longer it drags on, the better it will be for us. Although Yamagoe is troublesome, it is in the mountains after all. Mountains can protect them, but they also limit them, and they can't become climates. ”

Guo Jia smiled dumbly. "I'm relieved that the general can think so. You tell me about this Tai Shi Ci's situation, and I'll find a way to deal with him. ”

Sun Ce told him what he knew about Tai Shici. Tai Shi Ci has a biography, but the record is relatively brief, he only remembers the approximate, and some details are not clear. Despite this, Guo Jia still felt that it was very useful after listening to it. "So, this man is a fierce enemy. Judging by his style of acting, he is somewhat similar to a general, improvising and daring to take risks. ”

Sun Ce agreed. The situation of Tai Shi Ci and Sun Ce is indeed very similar, but Tai Shi Ci's starting point is too low to crisscross Jiangdong like Sun Ce. After all, Sun Ce has the foundation laid by his father Sun Jian, and Jiangdong is located in the southeast and is not valued by the Central Plains, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao both set their eyes on the Central Plains, and no one paid attention to Jiangdong, so he had the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. Qingxu is the Central Plains, and the forces of all parties are fighting repeatedly, and they will not give Tai Shici a chance to be a poor disciple with no foundation at all.

The cold family is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and top families like Sun Ce, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao cannot be compared, but they are much stronger than Tai Shici.

Guo Jia suddenly laughed: "According to this, Liu Miao was forced to let Tai Shici come to Yangxian. He brought Tai Shi Ci to Jiangdong, naturally he wanted to use Tai Shi Ci, but Tai Shi Ci was born so poorly, and he did things by unscrupulous means, I am afraid that it will be difficult to enter the eyes of celebrities, maybe Xu Jing said something, Liu Miao didn't want to be involved by Tai Shi Ci, so he simply let him lead a part alone and deal with Shanyue. I want to use it but don't dare to use it, I am swayed by people's words, and I am burdened by false fame, and it is difficult for Liu Miao to become a big thing. The general restrained Xu Gong and let Chen Shuzhi deal with him, this is a rare and good opportunity. ”

"That's what I wanted, and I wanted Shi Yuan to help him."

"Shi Yuan is outstanding, so he is naturally an excellent candidate. But Liu Miao is too stupid to take action. Let's let Ziming and Gongyi go, they can not only help Shuzhi with advice, but also help him find out the news, killing two birds with one stone. ”

Sun Ce weighed for a moment and accepted Guo Jia's suggestion, Pang Tong is smart and more than enough to be a military advisor, but he has average force and no ability to protect himself. Lu Meng and Jiang Qin have good skills and rich survival experience, and they have been cultivated for so long that they can fly.

Guo Jia immediately called Lü Meng and Jiang Qin, and gave some orders, Lü Meng and Jiang Qin were overjoyed, and immediately took a dozen or so scout camp mates and rushed to Danyang.

——

Back in Yangxian, Sun Ce convened the generals to discuss and adjust the deployment. Gan Ning took the sailor with him and rushed to Wu County, Song Gai led a thousand newly recruited recruits to guard the city, and kept in touch with Zu Lang, who was still in the mountains, and the others rushed to Wu County together.

Before leaving Yangxian, Sun Ce invited the heads of the Yangxian family to explain the situation. It's not that he doesn't want to fight the bandits, it's that Wu Jun is too disobedient to Xu Gong, not only to exonerate Xu Chun, but also to collude with the bandits and send someone to assassinate him. Compared with the thieves in Tongguan Mountain, Xu Gong is more harmful, and if he doesn't get rid of him, other things are not easy to do.

It doesn't matter if what Sun Ce said is true or not. For these Haoqiang, as long as Sun Ce does not move their interests, everything is acceptable. So far, Sun Ce is still measured in his work, not messy like the legend, and he took the initiative to explain the situation to them when there was an accident, which was very sincere. The Xu family fell, but they were not damaged, and they more or less shared some oil and water, of course they didn't want Xu Chun to come back to life. Xu Gong is Xu Chun's backer, Sun Ce wants to deal with Xu Gong, they are happy to see it, and they have expressed their support for Sun Ce.

After appeasing Yang Xian Haoqiang, Sun Ce sent someone to bring Xu Chun's father and son out and bring them to the boat. After a few days, Xu Chun met Wang Zhen again. But instead of seeing a glimmer of hope, he became more desperate. Wang Zhen became a prisoner like him, and Sun Ce wanted to take him to Wu County to ask for his guilt, and to uproot Xu Gong, the Taishou of Wu County, and the last glimmer of hope was completely shattered.

There was no hope of survival, but Xu Chun calmed down and gritted his teeth. "General Sun, you didn't plan to let us go at all, you wanted to kill us all from the beginning. No matter whether I make a mistake or not, you will find a way to deal with me, just because my Xu family is the number one family in Yangxian, right? ”

Xu Chun gritted his teeth, his eyes blood-red. After only a few days in prison, he has changed, his original arrogance is gone, his original wealth is gone, and now he has lost weight, his hair is unkempt, his clothes are disheveled, and his face is bruised. The jailers are not good people, extortion is a routine, and the Xu family has no oil or water now, so they will inevitably be beaten.

Wang Zhen lowered her head, her face like ashes. Wei Teng's face was gloomy, and he had a feeling of sadness for a rabbit and a fox.

Sun Ce smiled, smiling happily. "You're too narcissistic."

"Please advise the General."

"I do need your land, but if you weren't so stupid, I wouldn't use this method. You have more than 300 hectares of land, second to none in Yangxian, in Runan and Nanyang, are you a fart? If you don't mess with me, we will naturally have a discussion and will never let you suffer. But if you want my life, of course I won't let you go. What does this have to do with whether you have land or not, whether it is the first family of Yangxian? ”
