Chapter 3 Want a Jade Seal? Or do you want to be a country?
(Recommended reading: Wine is less than a thousand cups of confidants, and the two of them are half-drunk, so they naturally talk about the current situation!
"Yuan Shu rat is eye-catching, and extravagant, the Jianghuai area is a place where talents come out in large numbers, but he can't use any of them, all rely on the prestige of the Yuan family's 'four worlds and three dukes' to have today, once the ancestors are exhausted, sooner or later they will be defeated, my brother has great ambitions, how can he send people under the fence for a long time?"
Zhou Yu recently traveled to various parts of Jianghuai, and saw with his own eyes that the originally good and prosperous land was ruined, with excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and endless conscription and conscription, which made the people complain, so he concluded that Yuan Shu would not last long!
"I don't know that Yuan Highway is not a hero in the world, but unfortunately now the soldiers are exhausted, and they are repeatedly forced by others, although there are thousands of ambitions in their hearts, there is nowhere to show it!" Sun Ce drank the liquor in the bowl in one gulp, and a flush suddenly appeared on his resolute face, and then he told all his recent encounters and difficulties!
"Could it be that the treasure is really in the hands of my brother?" Everyone has curiosity, and Zhou Yu, who is 19 years old this year, is naturally no exception, because that thing is so heavy that it can crush this big Han country!
"Hey, hey!" Sun Ce smiled but didn't answer, got up and closed the door of the tent carefully, listened attentively, and after confirming that there was no one else around, he walked towards the wooden box inside the tent!
The box is very ordinary, four feet long, two and a half feet wide, made of the most ordinary meandering willow wood, with vermilion lacquer on the outside, and a large iron lock hanging on it!
However, Sun Ce didn't move the box, but moved it away, this is just a trick, there is nothing in it except a few changes of clothes, the real treasure is below!
Sun Ce was planing like a groundhog, and soon a small burden was revealed, and when he opened the baggage, there was a black lacquered wooden box only one foot in size, made of the hardest garnet wood, with four corners covered with gold, and a small gold lock hanging on it!
"Brother, could it be that treasure in this?" Zhou Yu also stood up excitedly, his voice was very low, and he rubbed his hands excitedly, it felt very similar to him and Sun Ce when they were children, they went to the field to steal other people's oranges together!
However, in the past, the two of them were stealing oranges, but now they are stealing a piece of the country!
Nodding, Sun Ce put the small wooden gate between the two, and then ripped off his clothes, tied a red rope around his neck, and on it was a delicate golden key, which he usually wore close to his body, even when he was bathing, but today, in front of his most trusted sworn brother, this gate finally opened!
The color quality is as white as snow, four inches in size, there are five dragons coiled, there is a corner missing below, it is inlaid with a yellow scarf, and there are eight seals on the front--- 'Ordered by the sky, both longevity and Yongchang!'
Because the light in the tent was dim and unclear, in the flickering, the five coiling dragons seemed to come to life, soaring, roaring, and shaking the mountains and rivers!
"Heirloom Jade Seal!"
"It's really a jade seal!"
Not only was Zhou Yu, who saw the jade seal for the first time, excited, but Sun Ce, who had already played with it several times, also trembled with his hands, because there are too many stories of righteousness on this jade seal, how many emperors used it to command these thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, and how many heroes and heroes fell to the ground in order to compete for it, and now, this 'heirloom jade seal' is passed and played with in the hands of the two!
After a long time, the jade seal was locked back in the wooden gate again, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief and stabilized their emotions!
"But it is a peerless treasure, but this treasure is in the hands of the emperor, and it can naturally command the subjects of the world, but if it falls into the hands of ordinary people, not only is it not a blessing, but it will invite death!"
"Yes, the puppet is not guilty, but he is guilty!"
Sun Ce very much agrees with Zhou Yu's words, since he got this 'heirloom jade seal', his Sun family has not benefited at all, but has been unfortunate again and again, his father Sun Jian can be said to have died on this jade seal!
So Sun Ce loves and hates this treasure, hates it for ruining his family, hates it for causing countless disasters, but no matter how much he hates, it is also a jade seal of the country, a symbol of the monarch's power and divine acceptance, with it, it symbolizes the mandate of heaven, you can ascend the throne and call the emperor, losing it, it means that the number of qi has been exhausted, and the country has changed hands!
"Since my brother knows that this thing is ominous, why don't you withdraw and cause trouble?"
"What do you mean?"
"After all, the jade seal is not a country, but we can use it to exchange it for a country!" Saying that, a smile appeared on Zhou Yu's mutton-fat little white face, obviously he already had a plan in his heart.
"Now that the northern heroes are fighting, Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, each of them is divided into cities, and it is really difficult to have a place to intervene, but Liu Yao, the Yangzhou Mu in the south, is old and mediocre, and can no longer control the land of the six counties in Jiangdong, why not borrow some soldiers, horses, money and grain from Yuan Shu, and lay down a piece of his own country in the name of conquest?"
"The six counties of Jiangdong are a good place to go!"
Sun Ce nodded, Jiangdong was not only rich, but also had some remnants left by his father to be recruited, but how could Yuan Shu lend himself soldiers and horses for no reason?
He didn't even give himself military rations!
"Usually I don't want to borrow him, but what if my brother exchanges something with him?" Speaking of Zhou Yu's eyes at the little black wooden gate, the ** of the jade seal of the country, no one can refuse!
Use the jade seal to exchange for soldiers and horses? Sun Ce felt a sharp pain in his heart, and he was reluctant, for this jade seal, their Sun family had really paid too much!
But after thinking about it, if he doesn't get out of the predicament in front of him, his 5,000 men and horses will have to collapse due to hunger sooner or later, not to mention the jade seal, even his life can't be saved, it's really better to use it in exchange for soldiers and horses money and food, and go to fight a country of his own!
Want a jade seal? Or do you want to be a country? Sun Ce had a hideous face and was in a dilemma~
"it, there is no country to talk about Yuxi? Changed! ”
"Sun Ce asks to see? What did he come to do! ”
Early the next morning, after a sumptuous breakfast, Yuan Shu was drinking his favorite honey water in the pseudo-palace, when he suddenly heard the next person report that it was Sun Ce asking to see him, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned!
Recently, he has repeatedly squeezed the remnants of Jiangdong, and even the grain and grass have been cut off, could it be that this kid can't bear it and asks himself for grain and grass?
"Let him in!"
"No!"
"The last general, Sun Ce, see Mingshang!"
With a sonorous and powerful footsteps, Sun Ce, who was dressed in military uniform, walked in, saying that Zhou Yu was handsome, in fact, he was not bad, more than eight feet tall, with a wolf's back and a bee's waist, his face was like white iron, a pair of tiger eyes flashed, and with armor and swords, he was not angry and arrogant, and he had the momentum of Xiang Yu, the 'Overlord of Western Chu'!
If Zhou Yu is a piece of mutton fat white jade, then Sun Ce is a piece of refined steel, a natural talent for commanding troops!
"If only it were my son! Although the old man dies, he has no complaints! ”
Every time he saw Sun Ce, Yuan Shu would sigh like this in his heart, Jiangdong Tiger-Sun Jian has a son, although he is dead, he thinks about his precious son, and there is only a sigh left!
Yuan Shu's wife Feng also gave birth to a son, and he is still the only son, and his personality, character, and ability are completely a strengthened version of his Lao Tzu, which means that his baby son is more arrogant, more stupid, and more unlearned than Yuan Shu, and he is definitely the best among the losers!
However, Yuan Shu still gave him a nice name--- Yuan Li!
I just hope that my baby son can make contributions in the future, but the result is good
"What are you doing here?" The wife is someone else's good, the son is his own good, and no matter how good Sun Ce is, he is someone else's son, so Yuan Shu will not be soft at all.
"Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao, I have a grudge against my father, Sun Ce is not talented, please Ming Shang borrow thousands of male soldiers, and ordnance money and food, go to revenge, all the way to the city is willing to offer, the end will not dare to touch a bit!" Sun Ce pointed to the south, looking like he would not take revenge and not be a son of man!
"Revenge?"
Yuan Shu, the blood feud between the Sun and Liu families, is known, but what does the hatred of others have to do with him, not to mention that Liu Biao sits in the nine counties of Jingzhou and has more than 100,000 soldiers, how can a little Sun Ce deal with it, and it will not be good to drag himself into the water when the time comes!
"If you don't believe it, you will have a treasure left by your father as collateral!" As he spoke, Sun Ce took out a small black wooden gate from his arms and held it firmly in his hand!
"The treasure left by your father Sun Jian?" Yuan Shu, who was drinking honey water, was almost choked, and hurriedly sat up from the soft couch, when the princes' coalition army invaded Luoyang, the 'Jiangdong Tiger' did get a treasure, it could be ~~
"Please take a look!" The small wooden box was opened, and the gold-inlaid jade seal fell steadily into Sun Ce's hand, and then it was held high, which was not only to let Yuan Shu see it more clearly, but also to prevent it, if the other party dared to grab it, then smash it to pieces!
"The jade seal of the country! Sure enough, it is a jade seal of the country! Yuan Shu is knowledgeable, and he saw at a glance that this was the treasure he had been thinking about for a long time, and his first reaction was to reach out to take it, but he was frightened by Sun Ce's tiger-like eyes!
To tell the truth, he really had the intention to call the gold-armored warrior to come up, chop Sun Ce into meat sauce, and then take the jade seal for himself, but looking at the momentum of the little tiger cub in front of him, he knew that the other party was preparing to burn the jade, and he didn't care if Sun Ce died, but if the jade seal was broken, he would have to die of distress?
"The revenge of killing the father is not shared with the sky, Bo Fu's revenge is a great act of filial piety, and the old man should help!" After turning around in place a few times, Yuan Shu knew that it would not work if he didn't have some blood this time, he was reluctant to let the child trap the wolf, and he was reluctant to exchange the soldiers and horses for the jade seal!
"Okay, the old man will lend you 3,000 elite soldiers, plus 500 war horses!"
Hearing the promise, Sun Ce slowly dropped the jade seal to the chest position, but he didn't hand it out, his meaning was very simple, the price was not enough!
"The old man allocated another 30,000 pieces of corn, 2,000 pairs of armor, 3,000 rods, 2,000 knives, and 1,000 sets of bows!" For the sake of the jade seal, Yuan Shu has also really invested in it, and all the promises are precious strategic materials!
"Thank you Akijo!" Sun Ce thought about it in his heart, nodded with satisfaction, and then handed over the jade seal, but he didn't let go, but looked at the table not far away.
"This kid is really not easy to fool!" Yuan Shu's face was about to wrinkle into a bun, he originally planned to get the jade seal first, and then rely on the debt, but now it seems that it can't be done, "Hey! How can today's young people be so shrewd! ”
Brushing a little bit, a document for extracting armor, grain and grass was written, and after using the big seal, Yuan Shu took out a tiger talisman for troop mobilization from his arms and handed it over, and the deal was sold!
"My precious jade seal, it's finally here!"
"My precious soldiers and horses have finally arrived!"
In the main hall, Sun and Yuan both looked intoxicated, happy to get what they wanted, and at the same time strongly despised each other in their hearts!
"In the end, it is a child who has not dried up, and he actually exchanged the jade seal of the country for thousands of soldiers and horses, Sun Jian knows it underground, I am afraid that he will not be blind to death!"
In Yuan Shu's view, what is the money and grain of soldiers and horses, he occupies the richest Huainan area, and if he wants soldiers, he will recruit soldiers, and if he wants food, he will go to levy, so isn't it how much he wants?
"A stupid and stupid old thing, you deserve to be a loser if you give away soldiers and horses for a stone, besides, is this thing so easy to take? If you can't hold it, you'll be stoned to death! ”
Sun Ce knows the dangers of this heirloom jade seal, and his life may be lost in one day, he is ready to watch Yuan Shu play with fire**!
Each has a confidant, all in the word, who is high and who is low, we will see in the future!
