Chapter Seventy-Five: The Rough Man
Sun Huan is of medium stature, with sharp eyebrows, and is very handsome, he is one year older than Sun Shao, and he is twenty-two years old this year. He is Sun He's third son, and both brothers died young, leaving him and his younger brother Sun Jun now. Sun Huan is not only beautiful, but also very smart, erudite and strong-remembered, and a good person, which is quite liked by the old people of the Sun clan, and is known as Yan Yuan of the clan. Of course, this one is suspected of being a sycophant, saying that Sun Huan is Yan Yuan is a disguised saying that Sun Quan is a saint.
"I've seen General Hou." Sun Huan and Zhou Xun saluted respectfully.
Sun Shao felt a little funny, Sun Huan was the same generation as himself, and he was older than himself, and when he saw him before, he had to politely call his brother. Although Zhou Xun is younger than himself, Zhou Xun was destined to attack the knight at the beginning, but he can't see the way out, although Zhou Xun has a demeanor, but the young man's surname is inevitably a little arrogant. Who would have thought that these two excellent young people would now become their subordinates.
Oh my God, you're really good at playing with people.
Zhou Xun saw that Sun Shao was silent, and there was a rather playful smile in the corner of his eyes, and he also felt very embarrassed. When he came to Jianye from Wu County, he also persuaded Sun Shao not to be too careful, but he didn't expect Sun Shao to become his official now, and Sun Quan arranged for them to follow Sun Shao, obviously not to let them follow Sun Shao to make meritorious contributions, and it is indeed a little unrealistic to expect Sun Shao to give them a good face.
He and Sun Huan glanced at each other, and they both felt that the burden on their shoulders was a little heavy.
"How many of you have now?" Sun Shao restrained his imagination and put on an official posture.
"I have five hundred men." Zhou Xun said.
"I have three hundred." Sun Huan said.
"Have you ever been on the battlefield?"
Sun Huan and Zhou Xun hesitated for a moment, and shook their heads at the same time: "No." ”
"No matter how good your martial arts are, if you haven't been on the battlefield, they're all empty shelves." Sun Shao waved his hand, "Go home and clean up, report to the Destroying Blade Camp tomorrow morning, and then start the first training." Bo Ying (Zhou Xun), Shu Wu (Sun Huan), don't blame me for not taking care of you, the Destroying Blade Battalion is the elite of the Aurora Naval Division, and those who can come out of the Destroying Blade Battalion are all heroes. However, their training is also very hard, and it is not easy to stay in the Destruction Camp, if you can't endure the hardships, it's too late to say not now. ”
Sun Huan and Zhou Xun were mentally prepared, where did they dare to retreat, and they clenched their fists at the moment: "Thank you for the general's care." ”
"Go ahead." Sun Shao waved his hand, turned around and left. Ding Feng glanced at Sun Erren, sighed, and said half-sympatheticly and half-teasingly: "It's really wronged to let the two of you mix with those who are soldiers." ”
Sun Erren looked at each other, and had to smile bitterly: "Don't dare, I will ask Lord Ding to take care of me in the future." ”
"Don't worry, as long as you can endure the hardships, the brothers of the Destruction Battalion will not embarrass you." Ding Feng smiled yin and strode away. Ding Feng didn't think as much as Sun Shao, he felt that Sun Quan had bad intentions when he arranged these two people to the Aurora Naval Division, and Sun Shao arranged them to the Destroying Blade Camp to force them to leave by themselves, don't have any doubts, Chen Hai of the Destroying Blade Battalion will definitely give them hardships.
No one will doubt this.
Zhou Xun went home to pack up his salute, Xiaoqiao saw that his face was wrong, and asked a few words, Zhou Xun didn't plan to tell her, but mothers are always sensitive, Xiaoqiao noticed that Zhou Xun's mood was abnormal, and he asked more and more about it, and only after asking did he know that he and Sun Huan were planted by Sun Quan as nails to Sun Shao's sailors, and then Sun Shao in turn threw them to the Destruction Camp.
This frightened Xiaoqiao a lot, sat for a long time, and immediately rushed to Sun Shao's mansion with Zhou Yin and Zhou Yu. Sun Shao was playing with his son in the yard, Xiaoqiao broke in in a hurry, rushed to the bridge, and knelt down: "Sister, you are gracious." ”
Daqiao was stunned by her, and he didn't react for a while, so he hurriedly asked Qiaoyue to step forward to help Xiaoqiao, but Xiaoqiao refused to get up, pushed Qiaoyue away, and kowtowed to the ground again and again. Guan Feng and the others on the side were taken aback, and hurriedly stepped forward to help, but Xiaoqiao was already crying with tears on his face, and he couldn't cry. Daqiao was also anxious, and grabbed Zhou Yu's arm and shouted anxiously: "Ayu, what's going on, what's wrong with your mother?" ”
"The Supreme asked my brother to go to the eldest brother's Aurora Sailor, and the eldest brother arranged for my brother to go to the Destruction Camp." Zhou Yu glanced at Sun Shao in the distance with red eyes, and said with a sob. Daqiao still didn't understand, but Guan Feng immediately knew the trick, and muttered a few words in Daqiao's ear, Daqiao came back to his senses, his face turned pale with anger, and he shouted: "Aman, you come over to me." ”
Zhou Yin pulled Sun Shao and begged Sun Shao to put him in the Destruction Camp, but when he heard Daqiao's anger, he didn't dare to say anything more, so he had to loosen Sun Shao's sleeve, and begged again before leaving: "Big brother, you must take me away." ”
"Mother, why are you so angry?"
"You...... You...... You ......" Daqiao stretched out a finger and poked Sun Shao's forehead fiercely, making Sun Shao inexplicable, but he didn't dare to refute. Seeing him pretending to be stupid, Xiaoqiao turned around and hugged Sun Shao's leg and begged: "Aman, you just see that my aunt was pretty good to you before, spare Ah Xun, this is the order of the Supreme, not his own thoughts, why do you want his surname, but my aunt will point to him......"
"What do you say?" Sun Shao smiled, bent down to help Xiaoqiao, but Xiaoqiao held his leg and refused to get up, his plump chest was tightly leaning on his leg, the face of pear blossom with rain was attached to his thigh, the summer clothes were thin, and the silk fabric conveyed the feel very really, rubbing him for a while, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and then hesitated, he had to look foreign. He hurriedly grabbed Xiaoqiao's arm with both hands, pulled her up with his hands, and said reproachfully: "What is the matter, you have to make it clear, I am confused." ”
Zhou Yu rushed to Sun Shao, and Ying Ying bowed: "Eldest brother, my brother and sister were young and ignorant before, and there were many offenses, please also ask the eldest brother for the sake of my mother and aunt and sisters, don't embarrass my brother." ”
"Wait, you're talking about Boying?" Only then did Sun Shao understand.
"It's not his business, what else?" Daqiao thought he was pretending to be stupid, so his face turned blue with anger, and tears couldn't stop falling: "I always thought you were a good boy, but I didn't expect you to hold a grudge like this......"
"Mother, what did you say, you misunderstood." Sun Shao hurriedly pushed away the small bridge, rushed up to support the bridge, and persuaded repeatedly: "Don't worry, wait for me to explain, you will understand, I don't want to take revenge on Bo Ying, how can I retaliate against him?" ”
"And what do you mean?" Daqiao, Xiaoqiao and Zhou Yu, the three looked at him with tearful faces. Sun Shao's heart moved, and he hurriedly looked away, these three faces were too tempting, and if he looked at it again, it was difficult for him to guarantee that he would not talk nonsense.
"You sit down first, wash your faces, so that people can see it, and think that something has happened to our family." Sun Shao looked at him left and right, Guan Feng glanced at him with a smile, and ordered the slave maid to fetch water, let the three of them wash their faces, and instructed the cook to arrange lunch. When everything was properly arranged, Sun Shao said:
"Do you think I'm going to send Bo Ying and Shu Wu to death?"
"Isn't it?" Xiaoqiao sobbed and said: "The Destroying Battalion is the Battalion of the Dead, charging into battle, attacking the city first, and suffering the greatest casualties. Those are the places where outlaws only stay, you arranged Ah Xun in the Destruction Camp, once he fought with the Cao army, wouldn't he have to risk the arrows himself? ”
Sun Shao was a little unhappy, how could the Destroying Blade Battalion be a place for outlaws to stay, it was the military academy of my Aurora Water Division.
"Auntie, who have you heard of?"
"They all said so, saying that when you attacked Xijuan City, only half of the three hundred people remained."
"According to you, I'm an outlaw too?"
Xiaoqiao choked, the following words did not come out, and said in his heart, you are not an outlaw Who is an outlaw, there are obviously thousands of people, but only three hundred people are used to attack the city. Daqiao didn't know about this yet, so he was anxious when he heard it, and pulled Sun Shao and said, "Aman, what's going on with these three hundred people attacking the city?" ”
Uh, leaked stuffing. Sun Shao hurriedly reassured: "Mother, it's nothing, auntie, this is hearsay, I don't know where the rumors came from." He turned his head and said to Xiaoqiao again: "Ah Xun, why didn't he come?" ”
"Where is he embarrassed to come?" Zhou Yin pursed his lips. As soon as he heard that Sun Shao was going to arrange Zhou Xun to the Destroying Camp Camp, Zhou Yin was envious, he wanted to enter the Destroying Camp but couldn't get in, so he privately invited Chen Hai to drink three times, but Chen Hai didn't agree to him. Now Zhou Xun has the opportunity to enter the Destruction Camp, but he doesn't dare to go because he is afraid of being injured and dying, which makes him look down on him a little. Since he was a child, this is the first time he has looked down on Zhou Xun.
"Shut up!" Xiaoqiao scolded, changed his smile and begged: "Aman, you should be a poor aunt, don't let him go to destroy the camp." ”
"He doesn't want to go to the Destruction Camp, he just needs to come and talk to me, so why bother with his aunt's drive?" Sun Shao was angry and funny: "Zhong Ying (Zhou Yin) wants to go to destroy the Feng Camp, but I still refuse to give him this opportunity." If it weren't for the fact that both of them were handsome among the young people, how could it be so easy to enter the Destruction Camp? Which one of my Raiders is not one of the best men in a hundred. ”
"How can you treat Ah Xun like those rough guys?" The bridge board lowered his face, and said unhappily: "The matter of charging into battle, it should have been done by those rough men, Ah Xun knows the art of war, and has experienced it by the side of the Supreme, he is now the position of a partial general, and when it comes to your subordinates, even if you can't lead an army alone, you won't have to roll with those rough men." ”
Sun Shao frowned. He knew that the concept of generals in this era was different from that of later generations, and there was no such thing as eating and living with soldiers - of course, there were such people, but most people regarded this kind of thing as a shameful thing - children of families like Zhou Xun, they were born to command others to sell their lives, and soldiers were born to work for others, and they made meritorious contributions, they took the lion's head and wanted to die, and the soldiers did not die, and generally did not come to them. In their eyes, soldiers are just like property, and the number of casualties is the relationship between how many losses there are, and it has nothing to do with human life. When Ling Tong was in the Battle of Hefei, his subordinates lost all their losses and wept bitterly. That's how Sun Quan comforted him, as long as you are here, are you still afraid that there will be no soldiers, I will make up for you more.
To become a famous general by charging into battle, even in this troubled era is very rare. Lu Meng can have today's achievements, and the injury of that body is the price, and Zhou Tai can now be the governor of the beard, which is also the result of his scars all over his body. The sons of the family are usually separated from the front line from the beginning, they are natural commanders, and the casualties of soldiers are only numbers in their minds, not individual lives. This kind of disregard for life makes them not have the kindness of a woman, but is more conducive to calm judgment, but for Sun Shao, this kind of natural discrimination makes him very uncomfortable.
He was angry for a while, and he wanted to say that my eldest father Sun Jian, my father Sun Ce, including myself, were all rough men who charged into battle, but after thinking about it, what was the use of saying it like this except to hurt Daqiao's heart? He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
"Mother, I'll transfer Bo Ying out of the Destruction Camp."
Kobashi breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled. Daqiao noticed that Sun Shao's face was not good-looking, and then he remembered that their father and son were both people who liked to charge into battle in person, which probably touched Sun Shao's inferiority complex in his heart, and he was a little embarrassed for a while. Guan Feng was also a little unhappy in her heart, her father Guan Yu also started as an ordinary soldier, and he has been charging into battle for decades, and until now he likes to fight in person, hasn't he also become a rough man in the mouth of the bridge? These children of the family, no wonder their father looks down on them, they can do nothing but rely on their ancestors.
"Big brother, then let me go." Zhou Yin didn't see the unnatural atmosphere, so he pulled Sun Shao's sleeve and begged.
"Zhongying, don't embarrass me." Sun Shaoqiang laughed: "You still honestly wait to be by the supreme's side, and if you are released in the future, at least you will be a school captain, why follow me to suffer hardships, if you don't get it, you will lose your surname." ”
"And-" Zhou Yin stretched out his voice and dismissed: "What's wrong with charging into battle?" The real generals, which ones are not fought on the battlefield. How can a person who does not dare to fight the enemy face to face be a good general......"
"Ah Yin!" Xiaoqiao also noticed that Sun Shao's face was wrong, and hurriedly stopped Zhou Yin, who was about to make a tirade. Zhou Yin saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he quickly shrunk his neck and said nothing.
"Aman, I'm ...... I didn't mean that. Ohashi gently explained: "I'm just ......"
"Mother, I don't blame you." Sun Shaoqiang laughed and explained: "Auntie is also right, the Destroying Battalion is to undertake the heaviest task, and the training is also very hard, Ah Xun's health is not very good, it is really inappropriate for me to let him go to the Destroying Battalion." Tomorrow I will transfer him to my side as a military planner and make sure that he will not be in any danger. ”
"Big brother......" Zhou Yu said timidly, "Could it be that the Destroying Blade Camp is of any other use?" ”
"The Destroyer Battalion is still where I train officers." Sun Shao slowly returned to normalcy and briefly introduced the surname of the Destroying Feng Battalion. When Daqiao and Xiaoqiao heard this, they all felt that Sun Shao was wrong, and they couldn't help but feel a little sorry and regretful, and then they wanted Sun Shao to arrange Zhou Xunjin to destroy the camp, but they felt that they couldn't open their mouths. Only Zhou Yin was unrelenting and pestered Sun Shao, and he had to enter the Destruction Camp. Sun Shao was helpless, and finally asked Xiaoqiao's opinion, and promised to let him enter the camp to follow the training for a few months, but if he couldn't survive, he asked him to leave automatically. Zhou Yin agreed, and as soon as the meal was finished, he rushed home to pack up his salutes.
Zhou Xun listened to Xiaoqiao's relay, and did not speak for a long time. He was reluctant to enter the Destroying Battalion at first, of course, not because he was afraid of hardship, nor was it entirely because the casualties of the Destroying Battalion were relatively large, but the most important thing was to let him eat and live with those illiterate soldiers, and he was a little psychologically unbearable. Now that he heard that this was not exactly the case, he regretted it a little, but it was too late to regret it, Xiaoqiao made such a fuss, and it was impossible for him to change his words.
"That's what he said?" Zhou Xun's face was red, and he was a little unconvinced.
"Now that I think about it, it's a bit reckless." Zhou Yu said worriedly: "Even if the eldest brother has some ideas, it is inevitable that you will suffer some hardships, but it will not send you and Sun Huan to death." Besides, we think that he hates us, probably just because he feels guilty in his heart, and he may not really have this idea. I look at him...... Not like a grudge-bearer. Moreover, he is now a general, there is no need to deal with you as a partial general, it's just a fight between children, and it's not a deep hatred. ”
"yes." Xiaoqiao sighed: "It's me who is too impulsive, and my sister said those words again, I think Ah Man and Yinping are a little unhappy." ”
"Forget it, it's all my fault, it's my eyesight." Zhou Xun lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't say anything, I'll go to the Destroying Camp tomorrow to report." ”
"Can you do it?" Xiaoqiao and Zhou Yu said in unison. Even if Sun Shao won't arrange for him to go into battle, the training of the Destroying Blade Battalion is also very ashamed, Zhou Xun's health is not very good, and he may not be able to hold it.
"If you can't do it, you have to do it, you can't let people look down on our Zhou family." Zhou Xun said stubbornly: "Ayu, Zhong Ying and I are going to follow the eldest brother to fight, there are only you and my mother in the family, so I will entrust you to help us fulfill our filial piety." ”
Xiaoqiao and Zhou Yu's eyes were red, and tears welled up again. The elated Zhou Yin ran over and patted Zhou Yu's shoulder heartlessly: "Little sister, don't worry, wait for me to find a chance to ask the eldest brother again to see if he has any ideas now, I don't think he dares to look at you today." ”
"Ah Yin, don't mess around, okay?" Xiaoqiao couldn't help but get angry. In her opinion, Zhou Yu's marriage cannot be decided by the Zhou family at all, it can only be decided by Sun Quan, if you don't want to marry, you won't marry? If Sun Shao has no idea, it will be a little regret that Zhou Yu has been broken, and he will not even have face. If Sun Shao had an idea, with his surname, wouldn't he have made trouble again?
Zhou Yin saw that she was angry, and didn't dare to rap anymore, but just muttered a few words and glanced at Zhou Yu. It happened that Zhou Yu also looked at him, he winked at Zhou Yu, but Zhou Yu glared at him, and then his lips moved, he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it, but the tears fell.
Sun Shao sat sullenly in the room, Guan Feng hugged the child and glanced at him: "Still thinking about that?" ”
Sun Shao smiled and didn't answer him.
"I'll leave tomorrow and go say goodbye to my mother." Guan Feng sighed: "I see that after my mother said that, she also regretted it." Speaking of which, I'm not happy either, but that's true. The children of the family are originally superior, and there are so many supreme families in Jiangdong, don't those families of Wujun and Huiji look down on him? Do you think those people really look up to you? But you have the power of the army, and you have the advantage to give it to them. If you lose ground, you see if they will still follow you. ”
Sun Shao turned around, looked at Guan Feng and smiled: "Madame has grown a lot recently." ”
Guan Feng smiled embarrassedly: "In the past, my father didn't like to associate with the family, I just hated them, but I didn't know what they were thinking. I have been in Jianye for these days, whether it is the Zhou family, the Gu family, or the Lu family, they are all famous families, and I have to have more knowledge when I interact with them. ”
"And what other knowledge do you have?" Sun Shao came to Guan Feng's side and was about to reach out to hug him, but his son glared at him, and wrapped his hands tightly around Guan Feng's neck, for fear of being snatched away by Sun Shao. Sun Shao then remembered: "By the way, has your son been named?" ”
"You just remembered?" Guan Feng glared at him with disgust, and patted his son's chubby little hands with both hands: "The big name is not yet, and the milk name is Ah Yu." ”
"Ahh Which one? ”
Guan Feng frowned, "I don't know, it was started by my mother, it seems to be a kind of lion cub." She pushed Sun Shao: "You go and ask your mother, I'll put my son to sleep and talk to you again." ”
Sun Shao answered, turned around and went to the backyard. The lights in the bridge room were still on, and there was a soothing and depressing sound of the piano. Sun Shao listened downstairs for a while, the sound of the piano suddenly stopped, the bridge appeared at the staircase, looked at Sun Shao standing below, and sighed resentfully after a while: "Aren't you coming up?" ”
Sun Shao laughed, walked upstairs, walked to the bridge and bowed: "I haven't listened to my mother's piano for a long time, and I was a little fascinated for a while, and I forgot to report in." ”
"What else do you want to report?" Seeing that his face was as usual, Ohashi did not mean to be unhappy, and the worry in her heart was lightened, she wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to explain, so she had to not mention it. Sun Shao entered the house, Qiao Yue came to serve tea, glanced at him, and ran away with a smile. Sun Shao took a sip of tea: "Mother, which word is the name you gave the child?" ”
"The monkey is a fierce dog." Daqiao explained softly, took the paper and handed it to Sun Shao: "Gong Cao once called your father Qi'er back then, so I gave him such a name, hoping that he would be as brave as your father and you." ”
Sun Shao looked at that word and smiled bitterly, fierce dog is also a good name? Is it really cheap and easy to feed these years? But thinking about the little name of the Han Wu Emperor, he didn't say anything, even if it was called a dog baby in later generations, there were not a few. Fierce dogs are fierce dogs, and they are still a little fierce.
"Aman, you...... You won't blame me. Daqiao reached out with some hesitation and gently pressed it on Sun Shao's hand. Sun Shao held it with his backhand and smiled: "What's so weird, a rough man is a rough man, I didn't want to pretend to be a literati." ”
Daqiao's face turned white, and he stopped talking, Chu Chu's pitiful appearance made Sun Shao's heart soften, and he hurriedly smiled: "Emperor Gao is still a scoundrel, a rough man is better than a scoundrel." Besides, people are too elegant and easy to be bullied, so I just have to be rude so that no one dares to mess with me. ”
