Chapter 5 Towards Unification Section 52
Gu Yong shook his head and said: "It's not good, Liu Xuande is just a stone's throw away, the Qingzhou soldiers are known as the strongest soldiers in the world, and those who can stay by his side must be among the best warriors." Since Wang Yue, Qingzhou has been full of martial arts halls and boxing clubs, and the individual fighting ability of Qingzhou soldiers has even surpassed some of our generals. The building is narrow, the force is not easy to deploy, and once a battle occurs, the advantage of a large number of people cannot be reflected, and the ability to fight alone is particularly important at this time.
I heard that the guard battalion around Liu Bei, also known as the 'champion battalion', is composed of the champions of the competition over the years, Liu Bei selected them to teach military law in person, Liu Bei is also a teacher and master for them, these people are brave and aggressive, and if they really want to fight against our army, I am afraid that if they kill the tiger, they will be counterattacked. ”
Zhang Hong also hurriedly came out of the crowd and persuaded: "Lord, don't have this idea, Liu Bei is close at hand, it is impossible for our army to transfer troops to hide from him, in case you anger him, don't you want the jade to be burned together?" ”
Zhuge Jin also hurriedly helped: "Lord, Liu Xuande is here to bring several generals, and his intentions are unknown, I don't think you should provoke him at this moment." ”
Bu Qi advised: "I have always been friends with Gong Jin, and I know that Gong Jin is faithful first. The ancestor (Sun Ce) and Gong Jin have known each other since childhood, and have a deep friendship, if Liu Bei is hostile, Gong Jin will never fail to signal to Xue Zong. In my opinion, my lord, Liu Bei, you don't mess with him, he is amiable, if he is angry, he will be crazy and ignorant of etiquette. I suggest that the lord deal with it carefully, and don't give him an excuse. ”
The rest of the ministers were unwilling to be lonely, and they also expressed their insights, nothing more than to persuade Sun Quan to calm his anger and go to see Liu Bei.
After Sun Ce occupied the entire territory of Yangzhou, he asked the imperial court for the official appointment of Yangzhou Pastor through Liu Bei. After that, the southern scholars took refuge one after another, and the unsatisfied scholars were eliminated by Sun Ce with an iron fist, and these southern scholars surrounded themselves and regarded themselves as small courts, and Sun Ce's subordinates called themselves ministers. After Sun Quan ascended the throne, ** was even more inflated, and he discussed things with his subordinates with the etiquette of courtiers answering questions: one sits and one kneels.
The Qingzhou soldiers were taught to kneel only on their knees to the Son of Heaven and the gods, so they ignored Sun Quan's order to kneel, which was the reason why Sun Quan wanted to drive away the Qingzhou soldiers.
The more the courtiers persuaded him, the more unwilling Sun Quan became, and when he was angry, the eunuch of the inner palace led Lu Fan in, and Sun Quan hurriedly beckoned to the front and asked, "What did Duke Xuande tell you?" ”
Lu Fan Ruyi kowtowed and replied: "He invited me to taste a few kinds of wine, and then played a game of chess, and then let me come back, and when he left, he gave me a few bottles of wine and asked me to go again tomorrow." ”
Didn't ask anything? Sun Quan blinked suspiciously, and then asked, "How did you play chess?" ”
Lu Fan replied: "It smells very bad, if it weren't for the chess game of Xuande Gong and Lu Zhi's "Unfinished Chess" circulating in the world, I really doubt that Xuan Degong is the number one stinky chess basket in the world." ”
Seeing that Sun Quan did not react, Lu Fan explained: "It is rumored that in the Battle of the Yellow Turban, Xuande Gong led troops to reinforce Lu Zhi, and in the sound of golden drums, he played more than 30 chess moves with Lu Zhi in the military camp tent. Later, Xuande Gong led the army to fight, and this game of chess did not continue, so it was called "Unfinished Chess". Judging from that game of chess, Xuande Gong has more than 30 hands, and he has completed the general layout of the entire chess game. The minister conceited Jiangdong national player, and wanted to have a good competition with Xuande Gong, but unfortunately Xuande Gong sighed that he had never played chess since then, and the result was messy and unsightly. ”
Sun Quan remained silent and asked, "After you came out, did you find anything abnormal?" ”
Lu Fan said blankly: "No." ”
Sun Quan shouted angrily: "Think hard." ”
Lu Fan frowned vigorously and closed his eyes in contemplation.
The ministers were gossiping, and Gu Yong said schemingly: "Liu Bei said that he hasn't touched chess for many years, so he must be hiding something." Tian Chou Tian Zitai regards chess as his life, and he carries chessboard chess pieces in his bag, Tian Chou goes in and out of Liu Bei's house without taboo, the two of them get together, don't play chess, just drink? Well, well, Liu Bei's mind must not be on the chessboard. ”
"That's right," Lu Fan shouted, startling the ministers, "When I went out, I seemed to see the butler of the third prince standing in the corner, hiding in the shadow of the pillars, not very distinct......" Lu Fan said as he pondered.
Lu Fan's memory is extremely amazing, he is good at calculating the winners and losers, and the things he swept at a glance are unforgettable for a long time, and he said so vaguely at this moment, it must be that he was still thinking about the game of chess in his head at that time, and he was absent-minded. However, on this point, the vague figure has basically determined that Sun Sangongzi's butler must be there, and Liu Bei hurriedly ended the game with Lu Fan because the guests arrived.
The so-called third son of Sun Quan is Sun Quan's younger brother Sun Yi Sun Shubi, Sun Quan is Sun Jian's second son, Sun Yi is Sun Jian's third son, and the difference between the two is only two years old.
"Wait for someone? Liu Bei said that he was waiting for someone", Sun Quan was annoyed and said: "The third brother's housekeeper is definitely not worth his wait, it must be the third brother himself who ran over, come here, prepare a sedan chair, I will visit Xuande Gong." ”
The ministers were worried that Sun Quan would lose, so they hailed the carriages and horses and followed Sun Quan.
When Liu Bei talked about the Eighteenth Route Coalition to discuss Dong, the princes of all walks of life cowered, and Dusun Jian fought endlessly, and the heroic and martial arts were unrivaled for a while, which caused Sun Yi to cry.
While sobbing, Sun Yi told Liu Bei about the heroic appearance of his eldest brother Sun Ce, in his eyes, his eldest brother Sun Ce was his childhood idol and an insurmountable mountain. And now that Sun Quan has ascended the throne, for the power struggle, the suspicion between the brothers has become stronger. Feeling nostalgic for his life experience, he was faintly worried about his fate in his heart, and Sun Yi cried breathlessly.
"Come with me", Liu Bei warmly invited: "Since you have arrived at me, don't go back, ask your housekeeper to pack up your things quickly, move into the barracks, and then, go to Lujiang with me to discuss Yuan Shu", Liu Bei said this, and stopped the topic unsatisfactorily, Sun Yi is also a smart person, and immediately agreed: "Yi will take refuge in his uncle's account in the future." ”
As he was talking, the People's Daily: Sun Quan brought the ministers to meet. Sun Yi was at a loss and asked urgently, "Uncle, should I avoid it?" ”
Liu Bei shook his head and said proudly: "No need, I, Liu Bei, still have a little prestige in Jiangdong, and I want to shelter a person, and I still have this ability." Chuan Sun Quan came in. ”
Sun Quan walked into the lobby proudly, and saw Liu Bei lying on a reclining chair, Sun Yi was sitting beside Liu Bei, there were still tears on his face, the two were talking in a low voice, seeing Sun Quan coming in, Sun Yi nodded to him to say hello, but Liu Bei did not raise his eyelids, and swayed freely on the rocking chair.
"Guy who doesn't know how to count." Sun Quan was ruthless in his heart, and when he saw the tears on Sun Yi's face, his eyes were even more angry.
"Xuande Gong is safe from afar", Sun Quan greeted loudly, looked around, and asked again: "Where is Gongjin?" ”
A stout man suddenly appeared in the shadows behind the pillars, holding a huge short-handled battle axe, and shouted: "Wu Na reckless man, is Xuande Gong also called by you?" The hall is noisy, so rude, if you dare to do this, beware of me beating you. ”
As soon as the general's voice fell, a young man of medium stature, fair skin, and well-proportioned limbs stepped forward and tugged at the sleeve of the strong man, and persuaded him: "General Dian......" The words behind him were inaudible.
Sun Quan let the reckless man scold him with his head and face, and his face was red. Liu Bei threw a lazy glance on the recliner, which made Sun Quan like ice water pouring his head, cold to the bone. Looking at Sun Yi's figure, Sun Quan suddenly thought that it was the person sitting on the recliner in front of him who had imprisoned the invincible eldest brother for nearly half a year.
"I fought side by side with your father and grandson, and my affection was extraordinary, and your eldest brother called me Uncle Xuande, so it is not an exaggeration for you to call me so." Liu Bei said coldly with a teaching tone.
In order to show his independence, Sun Quan specially called Liu Bei in an equal tone, but he didn't expect this title to be bad, his eldest brother Shang called him uncle, and he called him brother, wouldn't he be a generation taller than his eldest brother? Liu Bei's rebuke made him speechless, and he motioned to the ministers with his eyes and stepped forward to round the field.
Zhuge Jin took a step forward and said: "The young lord is presumptuous, and this subordinate is also responsible, and Jin is willing to make substitutions." ”
Liu Bei shook gently on the recliner and replied casually: "You are an honest man, how can I punish him?" What's your name, sir? ”
Zhuge Jin bowed and bowed deeply, and replied: "Zhuge Jin, the patriarch of Langxi County, Zhuge Jin is also." ”
Qingzhou does not kneel, and no matter how respectful Zhuge Jin is to Liu Bei, he will not violate the Jiangdong etiquette system, so he is extraordinarily respectful in this courtesy.
Unexpectedly, Liu Bei reacted strongly, and Sun Quan asked, he was not polite, at this moment, as soon as Zhuge Jin signed up, he suddenly jumped up, straightened his clothes, and returned the salute to Zhuge Jin: "Lang evil Zhuge , I have been famous for a long time." In the past, Chen Qun was asked to visit the virtuous in Langxie, but unfortunately, Zhuge Changfang and the second room have been moved, and only the third room remains. It's a blessing to see Mr. today, it's a blessing! ”
After giving the salute, Liu Bei jumped to Zhuge Jin's side in a few steps, took his hand, and asked one after another: "Sir, would you like to go back to Langxie to have a look?" Sir, do you know where the second room has moved? Why don't you stay and have a good talk tonight? ”
Liu Bei obviously showed the intention of acceptance, so that Zhuge Jin couldn't continue his words, and his expression was quite embarrassed. And Liu Bei does have this plan, and the locals of Langxi talked about Zhuge Sanxiong, and once called these three people dragon, tiger, and dog. Zhuge Liang, the descendant of Zhuge Er's (Erfang) who moved to Nanyang, was unusually intelligent when he was a child, and was known as a dragon, and the theory of Luo Guanzhong Wolong originated here; Zhuge Jin is known as a tiger; Zhuge Dan, who stayed in Langxie, is called a dog, and the dog has no derogatory meaning here, but it just illustrates the mission of Zhuge Dan to take care of the family and the ancestral house.
Gu Yong hurriedly stepped forward and relieved the siege: "Duke Xuande came from afar and was unharmed, but the army of the prince suddenly came to the disdainful land, I don't know why he came?" ”
Liu Bei didn't answer, waved his hand and beckoned the guards to put up the chairs, the number of chairs was not enough, so he used a few cases as a bench, and when everyone settled, Liu Bei removed the reclining chair, put on the old chair, and sat down on the upper hand, Sun Yi sat behind Liu Bei, Sun Quan sat on Liu Bei's right hand, and the ministers sat down behind Sun Quan, and when the hall quieted down, Liu Bei said in shock: "You can know that Cao Mengde has been strong. ”
The ministers of the Sun family blew up the group at once, and they all exchanged heads and ears, discussing in a low voice, and Sun Quan replied unhappily: "Do you know that Cao Gong doesn't intend to go east?" ”
Liu Bei smiled and replied casually: "I'm afraid he won't come." ”
The mobilization of the three counties of Qingzhou made Cao Mengde suffer a big loss, and now, no one in the world dares to provoke the big arsenal of Qingzhou, and he can't even think of going deep into Qingzhou, Sun Quan's statement is purely gambling.
Gu Yong was calmer, as the head of Jiangdong, he stepped out of the ranks and bowed his hand to Liu Bei: "Xuande Gong thinks his intention is south? To the west? ”
Yanzhou Sili area, the east is Qing, Jizhou, the north is the state, Hedong, Xu Shu led the troops to rescue, led the army all the way wild, swept the remnants of the Baibo bandits in Hedong, and then Cao Cao took over, strict rectification of Haoqiang, the territory of the division has been pacified, Cao Cao is Liu Bei's ally, he is not to the east, not to the north, the remaining direction of attack is only Jingzhou in the south and Hanzhong and Liangzhou in the west, in comparison, the combat effectiveness of the Liangzhou soldiers is extremely terrible, Cao Cao is not stable in the rear, will not easily use troops to the west, and this is what the Jiangdong ministers are worried about.
Liu Bei avoided talking about Cao Cao's question, and said in a relaxed tone: "I will inform you by the way, according to my covenant with Brother Ling, Ma'anshan was given to me as a manor." For many years, I have not seen the seal ribbon sent by Brother Ling to the local government......"
Gu Yong interjected: "The beam of Ma'anshan Mountain resembles a saddle, hence the name, there are not many families in the local area, how can you come to the government to govern the seal?" ”
Liu Bei ignored it and continued his words: "...... I set off to the south this time, and I have already obtained Ma'anshan by myself", Liu Bei rolled his eyes and added: "In addition, our army also occupied Moling City, as an interest that has not been taken from Ma'anshan for many years. ”
Sun Quan took the case: "It's too much to deceive people. ”
Liu Bei categorically interrupted Sun Quan's follow-up words: "I'm not discussing with you now, I'm informing you of the result." ”
The clay figure also has a fiery nature, and Gu Yong replied in a loud voice: "Do you deceive me and have no one in Jiangdong?" ”
Liu Bei smiled contemptuously and replied: "People live for a lifetime, when faith and righteousness are the first, I fought my way out of the encirclement in danger, knowing that Wentai (Sun Jian) had no grain and grass, he specially attacked the dangerous pass, solved the dilemma of grain and grass for Wentai, and helped Wentai soldiers and horses, so that he could enjoy the reputation of King Qin and capture Luoyang." Wentai died, Bo Fu deviated from the covenant, I didn't care, I supported him again, let him lay the foundation of Jiangdong, without the support of Qingzhou's materials and soldiers, how can everyone stand here and speak? The Sun family has repeatedly betrayed the alliance, and has not seen anyone in Jiangdong blame each other with faith, and people without faith and righteousness are like beasts, so in this way, there is indeed no one in Jiangdong, and some are just a group of beasts. ”
