Chapter 005: One Drink and One Drink
【One Drink and One Drink】
In Dong Zhuo's crusade, Sun Jianjun was the only army that had several head-to-head confrontations with the Xiliang army and achieved a great victory, when Cao Cao's army was defeated in Bianshui, Yuan Shao hesitated, the sour jujube coalition army collapsed, and the people of the world stopped to watch, his lone battle made Dong Zhuo, who despised the world, like a man's back, and rushed west.
His heroism also made other warlords jealous. When his lone army entered the capital, divided his troops into Hangu, and the soldiers Gexi pointed out that they wanted to kill Dong Zhuo, the heroes in the coalition army had their own ghosts and deliberately did not move, and their alliance leader Yuan Shao openly ordered Zhou Ang to assassinate Yuzhou for his own selfishness, and let him seize Yangcheng as Sun Jian's Yuzhou assassin history. At that time, the trend of the world had changed from fighting Dong Zhuo together to opening up the heroes' own territory. And even if Sun Jian is unstoppable, it will be difficult to redeem the fragile and divided alliance against Dong. Dong Zhuo's crusade ended in a hurry without a decisive victory. (Note 1)
What's even more regrettable is that Sun Jian's dignified Jiangdong Tiger died because of a small hidden arrow in the Da Xian Mountain.
No matter how much we sigh now, no matter how much we sigh, we can't change the fact that Sun Jian died under the dark arrow, maybe it would be nice if Sun Jian was more careful at that time, maybe Sun Jian's subordinates came a little faster at that time, and the tragedy would not have happened, but unfortunately history has no ifs, and it can't save a file like a video game and start again.
Therefore, it is irrevocable that in the third year of Chuping (192), Sun Jian and Sun Wentai died under the secret arrow of Huang Zujun in Da Xian Mountain.
And there was already providence in the dark, perhaps Sun Jian's glory and destiny had already been decided when he went to Jingzhou.
Sun Jian had worked with Wang Rui, the assassin of Jingzhou, when he pacified the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Lingling and Guiyang, because Sun Jian was a military general, so when talking with Sun Jian, Wang Rui often showed contempt, which made Sun Jian very dissatisfied with him.
When Sun Jian sent troops to attack Dong Zhuo, he passed by Xiangyang and asked Wang Rui to send troops together. Due to the discord between Wang Rui and Cao Yin, the Taishou of Wuling, he declared that Sun Jian would kill Cao Yin before sending troops. Cao Yin was afraid that Sun Jian would really kill him, so he forged the document of the "person who exercised the case", listed Wang Rui's crimes, and asked Sun Jian to arrest Wang Rui and make a prelude to the first execution. Sun Jian himself didn't like Wang Rui, so he received the text and immediately set off to go.
When Wang Rui heard that an army was coming, he went upstairs to watch, and sent someone to inquire about the intention of these soldiers to come here. Sun Jian's front replied: "We have been out for a long time. The reward for your hard work is not enough to make clothes. This time, I just want to ask for your kindness and some money. Wang Ruixin thought it was true and said: "What's so difficult about this, do I still want to be stingy when I do the history of assassination?" "Now the order was given to open the vault and let the soldiers go in for themselves, to see what else could be used.
When the soldiers rushed downstairs, Wang Rui found Sun Jian, was shocked, and hurriedly asked: "The soldiers came to ask for rewards, why is Sun Fujun here?" Sun Jian replied: "The person who exercised the case is hereby to take your head." Wang Xu asked, "What crime have I committed?" Sun Jian replied: "I don't know either!" Wang Rui was desperate and had to die of scraping gold and drinking.
After Sun Jian forced Wang Rui to kill, he led the army to Nanyang. sent an official letter to Nanyang Taishou Zhang and asked him to supply military rations. At that time, Sun Jian's subordinates had tens of thousands of people, and Yuan Shu had also been on the table, so he asked Sun Jian to be a fake lieutenant general. Zhang asked his subordinates how they should be treated. His subordinates said: "Sun Jian is just a taishou in a neighboring county, and he has no right to transfer our salaries. Zhang Zhi thought that his words were reasonable, so he ignored Sun Jian.
Sun Jian went to visit Zhang Zhi with cow wine as a gift, and Zhang Zhi had to come to thank him the next day. Sun Jian set up a banquet to entertain him, and after drinking, Sun Jian's main book came in to report: "Move forward to Nanyang, and the road is not governed, and the military funds are not available, please accept the main book to ask for the reason." Zhang Zhi saw that the momentum was not good and wanted to leave. But there were soldiers all around, and there was no way out. After a while, the chief bookkeeper came in again and asked Sun Jian for instructions: "Nanyang is too guarded to stop the volunteers, so that the thieves will ask from time to time, please accept the case and engage in military law." As he spoke, he ordered his subordinates to push Zhang Shi out of the military gate and behead him. The officials of Nanyang County Government were shocked, and from then on, Sun Jian's troops could have whatever they wanted.
After Wang Rui's death, Dong Zhuo appointed Liu Biao as the successor of Jingzhou Assassin, and then all over the country raised troops to fight against Dong, Liu Biao did not join the coalition army, but he also showed Yuan Shu as the Taishou of Nanyang, and showed favor to him, and the two were not offended.
After Yuan Shu became the Taishou of Nanyang, he received a large number of materials and manpower, which provided strong support for the confrontation between Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo. But Wang Rui is very innocent, although he has a lot of contempt for Sun Jian and other generals in language, but he is unambiguous in actual actions, asking for food for food and clothing. Although Wang Rui asked Sun Jian to kill Cao Yin with the threat of sending troops, he himself would not have died of his crimes, and if Sun Jian had agreed to Cao Yin less impatiently at that time, things might not have taken a turn for the better.
After Sun Jian forced Wang Rui, the former assassin of Jingzhou, to death, Liu Biao succeeded him. A year or two later, Sun Jian marched into Jingzhou again and died under the new Jingzhou assassin Liu Biao.
When we sigh for Sun Jian's untimely death, we also have to sigh and drink, the cycle of cause and effect, and there is already a providence.
[Sun Jian? Seigneur? 】
Whether Sun Jian can be called a prince in the Three Kingdoms era is a question mark.
Although, in a broad sense, there is nothing wrong with saying that Sun Jian was a prince. Generally speaking, in troubled times, as long as the local governor who holds the military and political power can be said to be a prince, and Sun Jian, as the assassin of Yuzhou, also has an army belonging to himself, and has territory and military strength.
But judging from Sun Jian's life, he did not have the most important element of being a prince - independence. In other words, in that era of heroes, Sun Jian basically did not show independence, and he was too tied to Yuan Shu.
Therefore, it is okay to say that Sun Jian was not a prince, but if you have to say that Sun Jian was one of the princes of the late Han Dynasty, it cannot be said that this is incorrect.

ps: The question of whether Sun Jian is a prince is similar to the question of whether Li Jian is the boss of the Houxi Liang Army. There is still a chapter today, and tomorrow the Cao Cao chapter will officially begin.
