Chapter 280: The Gathering of the Princes
"My father asked you to stay in Nanyang in order to correct my mistakes, and my father believes that as long as you are in Nanyang, it will not be too difficult for us to recapture Nanyang! It's a pity that Yang'er, you still don't understand what it means to be a father. Sun Jian had regrets in his heart, when he knew that Sun Yang had taken a whole five thousand men and horses away from Nanyang, he knew that Nanyang had nothing to do with them at all.
And so it was! Sun Yang had to admire Han Chun's ability to know people again, it was incredible that he could accurately analyze his father's meaning with just a few small details! Sun Yang knew that taking Nanyang this time was not the most important thing, the most important thing was that he found a Han Chun who was comparable to the top strategists in the world!
Sun Yang hesitated, he was wondering whether to tell his father the news that he had recaptured Nanyang, he didn't plan to say it, but seeing his father's somewhat disappointed look and already on the right path, Sun Yang decided that it would be better to tell his father about it.
"Father, please listen to the child, there are not only 10,000 soldiers left in Nanyang, but 15,000 people, Yang secretly transferred another 5,000 people from Wu County, and now the Nanyang Taishou sent by Yuan Shu is just a puppet, Yuan Shu's power in Nanyang has been swept away by the child, and the current Nanyang is completely in our hands!"
"What? Yang'er, have you recaptured Nanyang? Like Sun Ce, Sun Jian was also very surprised at this time, he didn't expect his son to retake Nanyang so quickly, and they didn't get a trace of news here, including Yuan Shu, of course!
"That's right, don't hide it from your father, the child has never planned to give up Nanyang from beginning to end, and has been planning for this and laying it out in advance. When the time comes, everything will fall into place. ”
Listening to his son say it so easily, but Sun Jian knew that his son's process should be difficult, first, no matter how severely he blocked him on the surface, he never reminded him in private, he not only had to spend his mind on layout, but also took into account his pressure, which was not easy.
"Yang'er, you have worked hard, and your father really didn't misunderstand you!" Sun Jian was very pleased, although he knew that his son had his own opinions, but his son could be so decisive, Sun Jian did not expect it.
Seeing his father smiling with relief, Sun Yang was also extremely comforted in his heart, he knew that now that he and his father's heart settlement was completely untied, they would work together to win this battle and crush all enemies who dared to be unfavorable to Jiangdong!
After telling his father that Cao Cao would visit tomorrow, Sun Yang said goodbye and left his father's camp, the time was not early, Sun Yang also took advantage of this time to settle down the war shadow who was completely regarded as a partner by Sun Yang.
In less than three months, under Sun Yang's good food and drink all day long, the war shadow has changed a lot at this time, not only has he grown stronger, but his hair has also changed a lot, and he was originally a little variegated, but except for the white on his limbs, the rest of the body is already completely black hair, if he lets go and run, it will be a black lightning!
"War Shadow, War Shadow, you're going to exhaust me!" Although the war shadow is the emperor of horses, Sun Yang also has happy troubles, because the war shadow is too arrogant, except for the horse feed that Sun Yang personally fed, the rest of the people don't eat it! This also invisibly increased Sun Yang's work, and now he had to find time every day to feed the war shadow.
Zhan Ying snorted, lowered his head and rubbed Sun Yang's head very affectionately, which can be regarded as thanking Sun Yang for taking such intimate care.
After feeding the war shadow, Sun Yang returned to the camp, and he was a little tired from the day's journey.
On the second day, when it was almost noon, Sun Yang and others came to Cao Cao.
Sun Jian and Cao Cao, the confidants who had not seen each other for a long time, also drank happily, but they were in the barracks, and they still had things to do, so they didn't open their bellies to drink, almost an hour later, Cao Cao left the Jiangdong Army's station, and he was going back to prepare for the meeting of the princes in the evening.
That's right, Yuan Shao, as the leader of the alliance tonight, also summoned all the princes who participated in the alliance to the camp, in order to distribute work, arrange vanguard candidates and manage logistics candidates.
In fact, Sun Yang doesn't need to think about anything, the vanguard position must have their Jiangdong Army, because whether it is their grievances with Er Yuan, they will be arranged to be the vanguard to consume their strength, or their father's decision, from his father to enter the army, every time he fights, which time is the team he leads not a pioneer? This time, of course, will not be an exception.
Yuan Shao's banquet was not only to arrange tasks, but more importantly, as the leader of the alliance, he wanted to take advantage of this gathering to contact the entire Kwantung coalition army, after all, so many princes and nearly 300,000 troops must be well coordinated, otherwise it will be a group of rabble fighting separately! This is what Yuan Shao never wants to see.
At dusk, Sun Jian didn't bring many people except for the two brothers Sun Yang and Sun Ce and some guards, this time he went to Yuan Shao's camp, and in front of everyone's eyes, he didn't believe that Er Yuan would do anything to them!
Because of the distance from Yuan Shao's tent, by the time Sun Jian and others arrived, it was already dark, and a general platform built in the open air was already bustling with many people, hooking shoulders and toasting each other.
"Brother Wentai, come here!" As soon as he stepped on the platform, the sharp-eyed Cao Cao saw Sun Jian, and quickly stood up and stopped Sun Jian and asked them to go to his side.
Originally, in addition to Cao Cao, Sun Yang was familiar with Eryuan, who had old grudges with them, and was naturally willing to get close to Cao Cao, who he was more familiar with.
"Brother Wentai, this is Chen Liutai, Zhang Miao, Zhang Mengzhuo; Brother Meng Zhuo, this is Changsha Taishou Sun Jian Sun Wentai. After Sun Jian took his seat, Cao Cao introduced him to the people who were at the same table as him, Chen Liutai guarded Zhang Miao, and the old grudge with Yuan Shao was even greater than that of Sun Yang, if it weren't for the fact that it was a tense period to crusade against Dong Zhuo at this time, I'm afraid these two would have started first.
"Brother Meng Zhuo, a certain Sun Wentai is polite!" Sun Jian hugged his fist, Sun Jian still has some impressions of Zhang Miao, this person is upright, good at raising scholars, has a good reputation in Shilin, and is also a man worthy of his friendship.
"Brother Wentai, I've heard of your name for a long time, I, Zhang Mengzhuo, have to see a hero like Brother Wentai today, I have no regrets in this life!" Zhang Miao also hugged his fists, Jiangdong Tiger Sun Wentai He has heard it many times, and he wants to make friends many times, and today he got his wish.
After Sun Jian and Zhang Miao got acquainted, they and Cao Cao took advantage of the arrival of Yuan Shaowei, who played "leadership temper", and began to chat......
Sun Yang's identity is naturally not enough for him to get close to the table where the princes of the center are entrenched, and he also followed Sun Ce and Cao Ang together, although the three of them are slightly older than Cao Ang, they are also the same age, and it is much more convenient to talk.
