Sun Ce accompanied his mother and younger siblings to wander around Jiangdu for a few days, but it was impossible to accompany them all day. As a prince, Sun Ce is also quite busy every day.

In October, after Sun Ce greeted his mother on this day, he returned to the barracks.

Sun Jian and Sun Ce both started with military merits, so they naturally had to hold the army firmly in their own hands.

Therefore, after a year of filial piety for his father, Sun Ce lived in the barracks for six or seven days every ten days.

But when he saw that Sun Ce had just walked into the tent and sat down, he heard a report from a soldier outside the tent, saying that Sun Jiang, the head of the secret saucer division, was asking to see him.

Sun Ce ordered his soldiers to call Sun Jiang in.

After a while, Sun Jiang walked in.

Sun Ce sat in front of the desk, looked at Sun Jiang's dusty appearance, and asked, "Ah Jiang, it's embarrassing for you to let you hold up the secret disc division alone, how have you done your errands in the past few days?" ”

"Lord Yu, Danyang County, Wu County, and Huiji County are the key development directions of the Lord Gong recently, and the secret saucer division of these three counties has been prepared, and the remaining four counties still need time!" Sun Jiang said respectfully.

Sun Ce nodded, Sun Jiang, who was originally a little reckless, has now been sharpened quite calmly.

"Good job, sit down!"

Sun Jiang sat down, and Sun Ce continued to ask, "What is Ah Jiang here for today?" ”

"Back to the lord, a few days ago there was news of Pengcheng Zhang Zhao and Guangling Zhang Hong!" Sun Jiang replied.

Sun Ce was overjoyed when he heard this, and said: "Such a great goodness, I don't know where the two of them are now?" ”

Sun Jiang said: "At the beginning of September, Cao Mengde sent troops from Yanzhou to Xuzhou, and Cao's army even went down to more than ten cities, fought fiercely in Pengcheng and Xuzhou Mu Taoqian, won a big victory, and beheaded more than 10,000 people. Tao Qian retreated to Tan County, guarding the city and did not dare to come out. Cao manipulated the soldiers to kill and plunder the people of Xuzhou, and killed tens of thousands of people in Surabaya, and Surabaya did not flow. He also marched into the counties of Suiling (now southwest of Suining, Jiangsu), Suiling (now Suining, Jiangsu), Xiaqiu (now Si County, Anhui) and other counties. In order to avoid the war, Zhang Zhao wanted to cross Jiangdong in the south and arrived in Jiangdu in a few days. ”

Sun Ce nodded and asked, "What about Mr. Zigang?" ”

"Back to the lord, Mr. Zigang went to Jiangdu yesterday, but it is said that he is guarding filial piety for his mother!" Sun Jiang said in a deep voice.

Sun Ce nodded and said, "Come on, please Captain Xu Sheng, Master Heng, Qin Gongcao, Chen Senjun, and Lu Senjun to come and visit Mr. Zigang with me!" ”

It didn't take long for Sun Ce and the four of them to enter Jiangdu City, followed by 200 guards led by Xu Sheng.

After a while, everyone arrived in front of Zhang Hong's house in Jiangdu.

Zhang Hong was born in a Guangling family, and his house in Jiangdu is not small.

Sun Ce and the others turned over and dismounted, looked at the door of the house, pondered for a moment, approached and knocked on the knocker.

After a while, two servants dressed in soap came and opened the door.

One of them was older, like a butler.

The housekeeper is also a person who has seen the world, and when he pushed the door, he saw that the first five people were all extraordinary, and the hundreds of armor soldiers behind him were also quite majestic, vigilantly guarding the people in front of them.

I saw the butler bow down first and said respectfully: "I don't know why your guest came?" ”

Sun Ce arched his hand and said, "I'm tired of the old man's report, Jiangdong Sun Ce came to see Mr. Zigang!" ”

The housekeeper-like man smiled, waved his hand, and said, "The old man doesn't dare to be it, the distinguished guest waits, and the villain will report himself!" ”

But he said that the housekeeper had entered the house, and in a few moments several servants and maidservants came, and the leader was the man who had just been informed.

The door of the house was opened, and the housekeeper and everyone behind him bowed down to invite Sun Ce and the others into the house.

Sun Ce nodded with a smile and took Xu Sheng and the four of them into the house.

The layout of this house is also exquisite, and there is a kind of winding path and seclusion.

Bypassing a long corridor, there was a wall of building signs, and a middle-aged man dressed in plain clothes was standing under the building signs, with several servants behind him.

The middle-aged man was about forty years old, with a long figure, slightly convex cheekbones, and looked quite tough, but he was an extremely upright person, who was Guangling Zhang Hong, a famous man in the world.

Sun Ce was just about to step forward to pay a visit, but when he saw Zhang Hong arching his hand slightly, he had already spoken: "Guangling Zhang Hong has seen a rebellious general!" ”

Sun Ce was shocked when he heard this, hurriedly took a few steps forward, grabbed Zhang Hong's hand and said, "Mr. Zigang is a great Confucian in the world, and his fame is all over the sea, isn't this a tormenting boy?" ”

After saying that, Sun Ce took a step back, bent down and bowed: "Ce to meet Mr. Zigang!" ”

Zhang Hong hurriedly pulled up Sun Ce and said with a smile: "The old man can't afford to be a general!" ”

Sun Ce replied with a smile: "Mr. Zigang, don't bother the boy, let's call me Bo Fu!" ”

Zhang Hong nodded, waved his left hand, and said, "In that case, please go into the house and talk about it!" ”

Sun Ce was overjoyed, "Sir, please!" Then he followed Zhang Hong into the living room.

The living room is also quite elegantly furnished, and the whole room exudes a faint fragrance of tranquility. The brown carved window lattices and rosewood tables make the whole room look extremely harmonious. On the side of the gorgeous screen is a Boshan stove decorated with animal graphics, and the faint fragrance of tranquility comes from this.

On the exquisite straw mat, Sun Ce and Zhang Hong sat opposite each other, Xu Sheng, Hengjie, Qin Song, Chen Duan, and Lu Fan sat on either side of the two.

Sun Ce introduced everyone to Zhang Hong one by one, and Zhang Hong nodded secretly when he heard it.

In today's troubled times, the lord chooses the minister, and the minister also chooses the lord to do things. Zhang Hong naturally knew Sun Ce's intentions, so he was also secretly observing. Judging from the current situation, Zhang Hong is still relatively satisfied with Sun Ce.

As a native of Guangling, the reputation of Jiangdong Sun Lang has long been spread all over Xu Yang, and Zhang Hong naturally knows it. Now that I have seen it, it is also as rumored, gentle and elegant, with a handsome face and extraordinary bearing, not a thing in the pool.

Of course, Zhang Hong also observed the four people behind Sun Ce.

Sun Ce brought these four people here, indicating that these four people must be his absolute henchmen.

Let's talk about Xu Sheng first, Xu Sheng is a military general, which can be seen at a glance. At this time, Xu Sheng sat on the straw mat, quite calm, in a word, he was very general-like.

Then there is Hengjie, Hengjie is a native of Jingzhou, who once served as Shang Shulang, served as Gongcao of Changsha County, and was also Sun Jian's chief bookkeeper, and he is an experienced official. Now that he is Sun Ce's master bookkeeper, he must be the person Sun Ce trusts very much, Zhang Hong thought secretly in his heart.

And Qin Song and Chen Duan have one thing in common, both of them were once promoted by Sun Jian as filial piety, that is to say, Sun Jian is the master of the two and is kind to the two. And the official experience of these two people is also quite interesting, Qin Song has been the county commander of Fuchun, and Chen Duan is the county commander of Jiangdu. Now, Qin Song is working for Sun Ce, and Chen Duan is joining the army. Zhang Hong saw that both of them were quite graceful, and nodded secretly.

As for Lü Fan, Lü Fan used to serve under Yuan Shu's account, and of course now he is joining the army under Sun Ce. Sun Ce would rather dig the corner of Yuan Shu's wall than pull Lu Fan under his command, which shows that Lu Fan is also extremely extraordinary. And just from the perspective of appearance and temperament, Lu Fan is by no means simple.

It's just a few moments, and Zhang Hong has already evaluated Sun Ce and the four people behind him.
