Chapter 19: Rescue
In Luoyang, in the big tent of the Chinese army in the alliance of princes, Yuan Shao wore a brocade robe and a jade crown, kneeling on the first desk, and the strategist Xu You knelt quietly beside him.
"My lord, it is rumored that when Sun Jian was camping in Jianzhang Palace, he salvaged from a well...... The jade seal of the country. Xu You's eyes flashed with a hint of essence, and he said in a low voice to Yuan Shao.
"Ziyuan, where did this come from, really?" Yuan Shao's eyes lit up, and his complexion changed suddenly.
The jade seal of the country is not an ordinary thing, representing the orthodoxy of the world, and Yuan Shao's heart suddenly became hot.
"What you see, ** is true!" Xu You nodded, and said lightly: "It is rumored that the jade seal of the country was lost in the hands of the ten permanent servants, but it should be in the palace, and Sun Jian's Jiangdong army was the first to enter Luoyang, extinguish the fire of the two palaces, and obtain the jade seal, which should be true." ā
"Good, good, the instrument of the country, reproducing the world, how can it fall into the hands of the puppet." Yuan Shao took a deep breath and calmed down, his eyes bursting with excitement and greed.
The Yuan family is the first family of the Han Dynasty, and it has long been surging in strength, and it is not a matter of one day or two days to seize the world, when the Yellow Turban Uprising was born, the Yuan family had this intention, but the Yuan family, as a family, of course knows the importance of reputation, so he Yuan Shao is trying to build yƬ He Jin recruited Dong Zhuo into Beijing, isn't he hoping to borrow Dong Zhuo's hand and disturb the world?
Only when Dong Zhuo really goes around the chaotic world, can the Yuan family justifiably win the world.
The plan is good, but the changes are also saving.
Dong Zhuo is very powerful, killing the young emperor and burning Luoyang, which can be regarded as the orthodoxy of the Han Dynasty destroyed single-handedly, which is beyond his expectations, but he even destroyed the Yuan family at once, and Yuan Shao was caught off guard.
Now that the sun has been burned, the world is in turmoil, with the background of the Yuan family, he will inevitably be the first to seize the world at the time of the chaos, he is the head of the Yuan family hand-picked by Yuan Kui, even if Yuan Shu's status in the Yuan family is not as good as him, he must be the lord of the world in the future, and this jade seal is a timely rain for him.
"Ziyuan, Sun Wentai is not an ordinary person, there is a fierce tiger, even if you do it secretly, I am afraid it will be difficult to get it, you can have a strategy, you can take away the jade seal." Yuan Shao's eyes stared at Xu Yu with a blazing light and asked.
Today's Yuan Shao is only in the Bohai Sea, and has not yet occupied Jizhou, although there are many generals under his command, but the strategists are only two or three kittens, basically based on Xu You.
"Lord, this matter is not difficult, if you can't get it secretly, we will ask for it clearly, someone in Jiangdong has seen him fishing from the well, we only need to buy a soldier and accuse him in public, and then the lord can force him to hand over as the leader of the alliance of princes." Xu You pondered for a while, his eyes lit up, he lowered his voice, and said gloomily: "If he doesn't make friends, he will be an enemy of our Kwantung Alliance." ā
"This plan is wonderful, you hurry up and do it!" Yuan Shao looked overjoyed.
"No!"
Xu Yu saluted respectfully, then stood up and left the tent quickly.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
Xingyang City.
The sun is rising, the morning light is slowly opening, and it is another gorgeous and colorful morning.
In a large mansion in the city, Sun Quan opened his eyes, stretched, and then got up from the bed.
In the battle last night, the Jiangdong army arrived in time, and after defeating Lu Bu, the two armies were stationed in Xingyang City, which was obviously swept by Dong Zhuo's Xiliang army, which was somewhat desolate and had a lot of empty houses, suitable for the camp of the army.
"Big brother, after a night of fierce fighting, we have repaid the favors we owe, and it is time for the army to return to Luoyang and join our father." After Sun Quan washed up, after breakfast, he walked into a hall, looked at the main general Sun Ce, and said.
Although Cao Jun received the help of the Jiangdong Army, at the beginning of the ambush, the casualties were still more than half, and there were only more than 3,000 soldiers who could be contained.
"Hmm!"
Sun Ce was a little excited, he and Xiahou Xuan, Xiahou Yuan, and Huang Gai joined forces to fight with Lu Bu, although it was extremely dangerous, but it allowed him to break through the bottleneck of his own martial arts, and officially entered the realm of Qi Training, and now he is a first-class general.
"Big brother, you go to rectify the soldiers and horses, and the right to resign to Uncle Cao, and we will meet at the city gate." Sun Quan said. After all, Cao Jun had too many wounded soldiers, so it was not suitable to leave and return, and he had to stay for a few days, and as a ceremonial act, he still had to resign.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, although etiquette and music collapsed, people with heads and faces still attached importance to etiquette.
The Jiangdong army was stationed in the south of Xingyang City, while the Cao army was stationed in the west of the city, and it took about half an hour to arrive on horseback.
After seeing Cao Cao, the two sides only exchanged a few words, and then Sun Quan directly said goodbye and left.
Speaking of which, Sun Jian and Cao Cao did not have a relationship, Cao Cao only came to the rescue of the Jiangdong Army in line with the loyalty of the Han Dynasty, and the Jiangdong Army now has 10,000 soldiers to help but return a favor, Sun Quan knows that Cao Cao will only be the enemy of the Sun family in the future, and he does not want to have too much friendship with this hero.
"Lord, this prince doesn't seem to have anything to do with us?" Cao Hong was changing the dressing for Cao Cao's wound and said in a low voice.
"We didn't have any friendship in the first place, but now it's just a human favor, Sun Wentai is so blessed, both sons are general, one son is as brave as a lion, and the other is as resourceful as a fox."
Cao Cao knew in his heart that Sun Quan was hinting to himself that the Sun family and him were clear, but he was a little envious of Sun Jian's two sons.
ā¦ā¦
The entire Xingyang City let the Xiliang Army go through a trip, and the locust crossing is no different, the big households basically let the Xiliang Army be wiped out, the streets and lanes, sparsely populated, it looks unusually desolate, and a little messy.
Squeaky ......
Sun Quan, under the protection of Zhu Zhi and twenty cavalrymen, got out of the Cao army camp and went straight to the city gate to meet Sun Ce, but suddenly, a carriage jumped out of the alley, blocking the way of Sun Quan and his party.
"Two little ladies, where do I see you going?" Behind this carriage were five or six big men, led by a horse-faced man, who caught up with the carriage and blocked it in the street.
"What the hell are you trying to do?" Inside the carriage, an elegant and pleasant female voice let out a hint of anger.
"Little girl, if you obediently obey the uncle, the uncle can still give you a good one!"
The horse-faced man's eyes were on the carriage, and he didn't notice Sun Quan and his party not far away, laughing, holding a big knife in his hand, facing the carriage, and said arrogantly.
"There is no order, it's really terrible, in broad daylight, you can rob people's girls, bully and dominate the market, and it's really unscrupulous." In the distance, Sun Quan, who was riding on a horse, saw what was going on, and said with some sighs.
The current Xingyang City has been swept by the Xiliang Army once, and it is estimated that there are no officials who usually manage it, so it will naturally become chaotic, and all the usual villains have run out.
"Second son, I'll drive them away." A cavalry road.
"Since I ran into it, you're not lucky." The corner of Sun Quan's mouth raised a sneer, and he said to a few cavalrymen beside him: "I can't get used to these people stealing chickens and dogs, you guys, go and break one of their legs for me." ā
"No!"
These twenty or so cavalrymen are considered Sun Quan's current personal soldiers, and the five cavalry rushed forward directly.
"Who are you?" At this time, a few splashes realized that the cavalry was in storage, and hurriedly retreated, and the horse-faced man suddenly panicked, the knife in his hand was not tight, and he trembled: "It turned out to be the official master, a few officials, if you have something to say, if you take a fancy to these two little girls, a certain family will give them to you." ā
"Hmph, my son-in-law wants one of your legs!"
These cavalrymen are the elite of the elite in the Jiangdong Army, without saying a word, they stepped forward directly, only two people shot, and each of them was broken a leg in less than three or two five or six splashes, and then ran away with gratitude.
At this time, in Xingyang City, the Xiliang soldiers left a deep impression on them, the soldiers were more ruthless than thieves, and they took people's lives without saying a word, so Sun Quan just broke one of their legs, which was already a great luck.
"Girl, the thief is gone, so go too! Now that the world is uneven, you should be careful when you go out in the future. Sun Quan is just a gesture for the woman in the carriage, he comes from modern times, no matter how he changes, his thinking is different from that of people in this era, and he can't ignore human life.
The longer he has been in this era, the more he has an impulse in his heart to change and change this era of treating human life like a mustard.
"Slave Cai Yan, thank you little boy for saving me!" A jade hand lifted the curtain of the carriage, revealing a delicate and stunning appearance.
Dong Zhuo took hundreds of civil and military officials and hundreds of people from Luoyang to Chang'an, the road was extremely chaotic, and Cai Yan was also separated from his father on the way, only a small maid accompanied him.
Two weak women, I don't know how many dangers they have encountered along the way.
"Boom!"
As soon as Sun Quan saw this beautiful face, his pupils contracted suddenly, and a pair of amber eyes burst out of essence, and his little mind seemed to be bombarded.
This beautiful face was all too familiar to him.
He originally thought that he had forgotten about it, but now that he saw it, it seemed to have been carved in the depths of his mind and had never forgotten it.
"Your name is Cai Yan? The daughter of Cai Yong, a great Confucian in Luoyang? ā
Sun Quan took a deep breath, his amber eyes staring at the young woman in green clothes and clouds on the carriage, and asked in a low voice.
"The slave family is Cai Yan!" With the support of a small maid next to her, the young woman stepped out of the carriage with broken steps, a pair of beautiful eyes were bright, staring at Sun Quan, and said.
