In March of the fourth year of Chuping (193 AD), Yuan Shu sent Lu Fan to envoy Sun Ce.

In Jiangdu County, in Sun's manor, there is a side hall called Songtao Pavilion.

This pine pavilion is built on a high ground in the manor, surrounded by rockeries, and the mountain rocks are surrounded by tall pine trees, which look like pine waves.

At this time, there were only two people in the Songtao Pavilion, it was Sun Ce and Lu Fan.

After Sun Ce came to Jiangdu, he replaced all the places with tables and chairs, and Songtao Pavilion was no exception.

At an intricately carved mahogany square table, Sun Ce and Lu Fan each sat on a mahogany Taishi chair.

There was a celadon teapot on the table, still steaming, and a faint sandalwood wafted out from the Boshan incense burner at the bottom of the table, which was very elegant.

"Brother Bo Fu, what did you think about what Yuan Gong mentioned before?" Lu Fan put down the teacup and said slowly.

Sun Ce smiled and asked, "Couldn't Ziheng guess my thoughts?" ”

"Matthew Fu has a good eye for Bo Fuqing, and now he is a rebellious general, and he has inherited the title of Marquis of Wucheng, so he can naturally ask for the Son of Heaven! Now that Yuan Gong asked Bo Fu to attack Zulang, why not do it? Lu Fan shook the celadon teacup in his hand, looking at Xuan'er shaken out of the cup, a little distracted, but he didn't know what he was thinking.

Sun Ce chuckled and said, "Lu Ziheng, who knows me!" ”

"So, Bo Fu has decided?"

"That's true, now I'm a rebellious general, and it's my duty to ask for the Son of Heaven! Besides, half of my thousands of sons and daughters have never experienced a serious battle formation, so it's time to take them out! Sun Ce picked up a piece of tea on the table and threw it into his mouth.

Lu Fan nodded and asked, "In this way, Bo Fu's conquest of Zu Lang is already a certainty?" ”

Sun Ce smiled and said: "Don't hide it from Brother Ziheng, now my 3,000 soldiers are ready to go, and the grain and grass are ready!" ”

Lu Fan Wan'er smiled and said, "In this way, what does Brother Bo Fu want to ask your Uncle Yuan?" ”

Sun Ce's fingers tapped on the table and said slowly: "20,000 stone grain and grass, 200 war horses, plus 2,000 sets of Han army standard equipment!" ”

Lu Fan frowned, turned the celadon teacup in his hand slightly, and said slowly: "Now there are about 5,000 men and horses under Bo Fu's command, and 20,000 stone grain and grass are about enough for Bo Fu's army to use for more than a year. With 200 war horses and Bo Fu's current war horses, it is not a problem to form a cavalry of five or six hundred people, and 2,000 sets of Han army equipment can allow Bo Fu to expand his army by 2,000. Bo Fu Duan is a good idea! ”

"Brother Ziheng, what is the matter?" Sun Ce asked softly.

"20,000 stone of food is not a problem, but 200 war horses and 2,000 sets of Han army equipment are a bit hanging!" Lu Fan frowned and continued: "The chief bookkeeper Yan Xiang has always thought that Bo Fu has great ambitions, and he should not let Bo Fu develop, and he will make a hindrance from it in the future, and Yang Hongduo has a good relationship with Bo Fu, so he must say good things for Brother Bo Fu!" ”

Sun Ce sighed: "In this way, 200 war horses and 2,000 sets of standard equipment are hopeless!" ”

But seeing Lu Fan smiled lightly, he said: "This is not possible, Brother Bo Fu probably doesn't know, your Uncle Yuan always feels guilty of you, 200 war horses and 2000 sets of Han army equipment are nothing to Yuan Gong, if he has a plan in his heart, Master Yan can't stop it at all!" ”

Lu Fan put down the celadon teacup in his hand and said slowly: "Coupled with my lobbying with Yang Changshi, there is no problem!" ”

Sun Ce and Lu Fan looked at each other and smiled, touched the teacup in their hands lightly, and drank it all.

At the beginning of April of the fourth year of Chuping (193 AD), Yuan Shu sent Lü Fan into Jiangdu, bringing 20,000 stone of grain, 200 war horses and 2,000 sets of Han army equipment.

In mid-April, the rebellious general Sun Ce was crowned a general. Hengjie is the master of the rebel general's mansion, Chen Duan joins the army for the rebel general's mansion, and Qin Song is the gong cao of the rebel general's mansion. Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, and Zhu Zhi were all named Sima of other departments, compared to Qianshi. The generals of the pro-guard army Sun Fu, Xu Kun, Sun Jiang, Sun He, Sun Hu, Sun Hai, Deng Dang, Song Qian, Jia Hua, and Xu Sheng were all military marquis, more than 600 stones.

At the end of April, the rebellious general Sun Ce led 3,000 troops to conquer Zulang, the marshal of Jing County, and the Taifu Ma Riyan walked with Sun Ce. Cao Qinsong, who rebelled against the general's mansion, and Sima Zhuzhi of other departments led 2,000 troops to stay in Jiangdu.

The marching speed of the army was not fast, and this time to conquer Zulang, Sun Ce said in his heart that he was not nervous, after all, this was also his first expedition in fact. Fortunately, the marching army is clothed, and the matter of grain and grass is handled by the master book Hengjie and Chen Duan, who joined the army.

Among the 3,000 men were 1,000 guards, 500 cavalry, and 1,500 foot soldiers. Sun Ce led 1,000 pro-guards as the Chinese army. Han Dang led 500 cavalry as the front army as Sima of the other department, and the scouts spilled 30 li. Huang Gai took 1,500 infantry under the command of Sima of the other divisions as the rear army.

The weather was already warm in April, and the sun was shining on the march at this time, and not a single cloud was visible in the sky. Sun Ce now finally realized the hardships of marching and fighting, but in the eyes of everyone, Sun Ce was wearing black tiger-striped iron armor at this time, wearing a tiger helmet, wearing cloud boots on his feet, a huge bow on his back, a shark-patterned sword hanging from his waist, pulling the reins in one hand, and holding a Jiuqu Overlord spear in the other, looking radiant.

Ma Riyan was still dressed in a blue-gray Confucian shirt, riding on a white horse without a bit of variegation, and the old man who was still healthy seemed to enjoy this feeling, as if he had deliberately stepped on the green. The climate in the south is also quite suitable at this time, and the scenery on the roadside is not bad, and Matthew's leisurely appearance makes Sun Ce on the side quite angry.

Sun Ce remembered that in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, Ma Riyan finally died of grief in Shouchun because Yuan Shu took away the scepter of the Son of Heaven. Speaking of which, the character of Ma Riyan should be a relatively pedantic Confucian, but judging from the current situation, this is completely a bohemian madness!

I have to say that for now, Ma Riyan is not bad to himself, at least he is much better than the historical captain Huaiyi as a rebellious general. It's just that Sun Ce can't guess what Ma Riyan is thinking. If Zhou Yu and Lu Su were here, they shouldn't be so passive.

What Sun Ce is most worried about now is that he has traveled through time, and the development of things has been very different from the records in the Chronicles of the Three Kingdoms, and many things in his memory can only be used as a reference, not as his own reliance. Over the past few years, Sun Ce found that this era was very different from the things in his memory, and Yuan Shu was not as narrow and unbearable as in the history books. Ma Riyan did not die of grief as in the history books.

Sun Ce sighed softly, a little helpless, but he quickly recovered, since he had crossed into this era, then he had to fight hard, and he must not let the disaster of the Han people reappear a hundred years later. The most important thing at the moment is to exterminate Zulang as soon as possible, strengthen his own power, unify Jiangdong, and gain a foothold for himself in this troubled world!
