Chapter 056: Strange Road After All
As soon as Yuan Lang's words fell, he saw that the curtain of the military tent was lifted, and then three people walked in, who were the three people who Yuan Lang had shown the way before. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Sun Jian and the others also saw Yuan Lang, and they naturally still remembered this guiding benefactor, so after a while of greetings, Sun Jian entered the table, while Huang Gai and Cheng Pu stood behind Sun Jian with respect.
"Come, Brother Wentai, please drink this bottle!"
Sun Jian's age at this time should be around 35 years old, and Yuan Lang, who is over twenty years old, calls each other his brother, although the span is a bit large, but the custom of being a guest and the host still makes Sun Jian nod and respond.
Sun Jian drank a bottle, and then asked: "It is an honor for the general to know so-and-so, but it is a sin for a certain person not to know the general's name!" I'll punish you with a bottle of wine to make amends to the general! ”
Yuan Lang happily accepted Sun Jian's salute, and then reported to his family: "General Sun is polite, my cheap name is dirty to the general's ears, not surnamed Yuan, the word Lang, Yuan Lang is also!" ”
As soon as Yuan Lang said this, the wine bottle in Sun Jian's hand just wanted to put it down, but he was stunned, and the general behind him, with a slightly gray yellow cover on his sideburns, shouted at the top of his voice: "Aren't you the current thief leader of the Yellow Turban Thief, Yuan Lang?" ”
"Presumptuous! Get out! Sun Jian slammed the wine bottle on the desk, and then scolded Huang Gai, obviously Huang Gai's faux pass made Sun Jian very angry.
Huang Gai knew that the words had collided with Yuan Lang, but he was a straight-hearted person, and these words were all in his heart. Since he didn't want to see this former opponent, and the lord Sun Jian ordered him to go out, Huang Gai rushed out of the military tent in a huff.
"Haha, I didn't expect my Yuan Lang to be famous!" Yuan Lang said in a round game: "What General Huang said is not unreasonable, but we have now been recruited by the imperial court, and now we are a member of the Jizhou Army, and we are also your allies Brother Wentai!" ”
Sun Jian looked embarrassed, most of his early military exploits came from fighting against the Yellow Turban Army led by Zhang Jiao in the past, but now the rival is sitting opposite him, how can he deal with himself.
In order to ease the atmosphere, Liu Zihui also interjected and said: "Huang Shuai, General Sun, we are all here for a common goal, that is, to crusade against Dong thieves, I don't think you need to add comments on the past, you might as well look to the future and talk about how to please Dong, how?" ”
Yuan Lang nodded in agreement, it's better to change the topic now, after all, it is not good for the communication between the two sides to talk about the past.
But Sun Jian's reaction was beyond Yuan Lang's expectations, only to see that he frowned at first, with a reluctant face, and then simply excused: "If there is any strategy to break the enemy, it is just the vanguard of the rear general, so I don't dare to talk about it in vain!" ”
Yuan Lang already knew in his heart, although Sun Jian was a big hero, he was not a broad-minded person like Cao Mengde, the enemy is the enemy, even if you are whitewashed, after all, you were an enemy before, and now you can't be a friend.
Since this is the case, Yuan Lang insulted the subject, and only heard him say: "Since Brother Wentai has concerns, he will not be reluctant to do so!" However, if I asked the soldiers to bring it before, it is still there, as long as Brother Wen does not dislike it, I am willing to give 300 stone of grain and grass to fund your army! ”
One stone of grain and grass, in modern times, is about 120 catties, enough for a soldier's ration for a year in ancient times, and 300 stone is a year's ration for 300 people, which is enough for a soldier of 3,000 people to eat for nearly a month and a half.
Yuan Lang's gift is undoubtedly a huge temptation for Sun Jian, who is short of soldiers and food, he didn't meet anyone in Yuan Shu just now, it is said that Yuan Shu entered the city perfunctory, but as far as his previous experience is concerned, Yuan Shu must still let him stand still, and he will not give him a single grain of extra grain.
But marching and fighting is consumption, and this food and grass are insufficient, how can the war be fought.
Sun Jian's current situation is exactly what Yuan Lang can imagine, he thought that Sun Jian would gladly accept it, but Sun Jian's next words made Yuan Lang feel that this friend could not get along.
I only heard Sun Jian reply apologetically: "Although the Jizhou Army is a friendly army for the supply of grain and grass to its allies, it is ordered by General Hou, and the General can only make a decision after consulting for everything, so General Yuan's kindness can only be understood!" ”
"Brother Wentai, can you think about it?"
Yuan Lang was still making the final struggle, and his face was simply thrown on the ground.
But Sun Jian's attitude was still very resolute, he once again rejected Yuan Lang with certainty, and then got up and said to Yuan Lang, Liu Zihui and Zhang Baiqi, who had a bad face: "I'm disturbed, say goodbye!" ”
Zhang Baiqi has been forbearing, this former enemy actually doesn't take Yuan Lang in his eyes so much, even if he has a good temper, no matter how honest he is, he can't help it.
I heard that Zhang Baiqi didn't wait for Sun Jian to leave the table, so he stood up and denounced: "You are all stained with the blood of my Yellow Turban Army boys, and now I am interested in agreeing regardless of my previous suspicions, and you don't know the current affairs and speak out, is it that no one cares about bullying me Yellow Turban Army!" ”
Yuan Lang didn't stop him, he waited until Zhang Baiqi finished speaking, because he was also angry.
"Who are you, a certain person is familiar!"
Sun Jian didn't answer, but Cheng Pu, who had been guarding behind him, opened his mouth.
"A certain is the Yellow Turban Army Zhang Baiqi, can you recognize it?"
Cheng Pu suddenly realized and replied: "It turned out to be a former white horse bandit, no wonder it looks familiar!" ”
"You ......"
Zhang Baiqi was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and just wanted to step forward and continue to scold, but Sun Jian stopped between the two, he first glanced at Zhang Baiqi, and then stared at Cheng Pu fiercely, and scolded: "Demou, why is your mouth not inferior, do you want to be punished in the same way as the public reply!" ”
Yuan Lang knew that everything should be left in the future, so he also grabbed Zhang Baiqi and said to Sun Jian: "General Sun, since the Tao is different, we don't conspire with each other, you and I are here to ask for Dong, I hope everyone can remember this in their respective battlefields in the future!" ”
"What General Yuan said is very true!" Sun Jian bowed, and then took Cheng Pu out of Yuan Lang's military tent without looking back.
"It's just, it's too much of a deception, cough cough ......"
After Sun Jian and the others left, Zhang Baiqi, who was so angry that he smoked, took a sip of the wine in front of him, and he was so anxious that he naturally choked on it.
"Hey, I never expected that this Sun Wentai is actually a person who cares about the past and his background!"
Liu Zihui also saw the scene just now, in his opinion, Sun Jian was not as perfect as he thought.
"No one is a saint or a sage, although Sun Jian is a contemporary hero, but in the final analysis, he is also an ordinary person, so he is naturally not exempt from vulgarity!"
After Yuan Lang finished speaking, he continued to eat his beef, as if nothing had happened just now.
Yuan Lang's mind made Liu Zihui admire, he looked at the young man in front of him curiously, Sun Jian and those two subordinates treated him like this just now, he could still put down his mind and wanted to continue to support Sun Jian, such courage and mind, when did Yuan Lang develop it.
"Don't be discouraged, Sun Jian's departure will be of great benefit to us!"
Yuan Lang used a boning knife to remove the beef from the beef bones and said while eating.
"Huh? What's the benefit, I think it's angry that I can't eat it, and I save a lot of food! ”
Zhang Baiqi is still angry, no wonder he only drinks and doesn't eat vegetables, it turns out that he is angry.
Liu Zihui didn't know what the benefits were, so he asked Yuan Lang: "Huang Shuai, I would like to hear about it!" ”
Yuan Lang smiled, then pointed to the vacant banquet and teased: "Look, when they leave, this table full of dishes is not just for you and me, isn't it wonderful!" ”
“……”
Jokes aside, Yuan Lang still felt uncomfortable in his heart, his origin as a "Yellow Turban Bandit" was the first time that he had been openly spoken, and he was still a person who he thought he could make friends.
Sun Jian's choice has undoubtedly added a lot of obstacles to his current situation, a person who wants to obtain supreme glory by constantly fighting, without the support of reserve grain and grass, is undoubtedly a toothless tiger, and it is difficult to gnaw people.
Sun Jian's personality is unique and individualistic at best, but at worst, he is actually unsociable. As Yuan Shu's vanguard army, he took his Huaisi elite soldiers to strip off the organization and act without authorization, and today it seems that even the garrison is separated from Yuan Shu, so it is no wonder that Yuan Shu will not treat such a person as a confidant.
It seems that the course of history is not something that Yuan Lang can change if he wants to, at least this time he wanted to help Sun Jian quickly eliminate Dong Zhuo, but he failed.
Sun Jian's unique personality will directly lead to his next fate, Yuan Lang clearly knows that Sun Jian is about to usher in another peak of his own, but this is just a flash in the pan, along with the peak, it is a hell one step away.
Yuan Lang wanted to help him, but Sun Jian chose to draw a line with Yuan Lang independently, and he was still a stranger after all. Then, it seems that Yuan Lang can only respect Sun Jian's choice and let him ask for more blessings.
