Wu County, Zhang's mansion.

Zhang Chu wore a brocade robe, knelt down on his knees, and knelt quietly in a quiet room, sitting in front of him was a white-haired old man, the old man's back was hunched and the wrinkles on his face were like withered grass, but his eyes were full of spirit.

This old man is the old lady of the Zhang family and Zhang Chu's father.

"Father, the child fell for Sun Jian's plan, and now I don't know what to do, so I can only ask my father for help and ask my father for guidance." Zhang Chu told the old man everything about it, and then said respectfully.

The three of them plotted to assassinate Sun Ce, and finally fell into Sun Quan's net together, Xu Gong died, Gu Zhou also died, he originally thought that this time he would definitely die, but he didn't expect that Sun Jian not only didn't kill him, but actually let him go directly.

Originally, he thought that Sun Jian was afraid of the local gentry in Wu County, so he let him go, after all, if this force was solidified, it would be really terrifying, and it would turn the entire Wu County upside down.

But after he returned home, when he heard the report of the people below, he understood that Sun Jian was digging a pit for him, and for a moment his body was cold, and he regretted that he was willing to die in the prison.

Let Sun Ce lead the troops to kill, the Zhao family, the Zhou family, and the Lei family...... These local gentry families are all staunch allies of the Zhang family, but now they have been cut off, only the Zhang family remained, and it was rumored throughout Wu County that he pushed these major families out as substitutes for the dead ghosts.

The most important thing is that he Zhang Chu walked out of the Wuxian County Government alive, and the Zhang family has to carry this black pot if he doesn't carry it, no matter what, the Zhang family is already on the opposite side of these local gentry.

"Hmph, when you planned to assassinate Sun Ce, why didn't you discuss it with your father?" The old man's eyes were cold, and he looked at Zhang Chu with some hatred, and shouted coldly.

Over the years, he has handed over the family to Zhang Chu, but he didn't expect Zhang Chu to be so bold that he dared to take the lead in assassinating Sun Ce, and he was ambushed, almost destroying the Zhang family.

"The child just wants to ......" Zhang Chu looked up at his father, panicked, and hurriedly analyzed.

"Come on, your careful thinking I know, you just want to show the strength of the local gentry in front of Sun Jian, so that the Zhang family can get a trace of Wu Jun's control, you are not wrong, but you are a failure, you are wrong, you are wrong, you are wrong, it is no longer meaningful."

Although Mrs. Zhang is old and frail, she still has the courage to be an official when she was young, stood up, waved her hand, and said indifferently: "Now, the Zhang family has no way, you go and think about Sun Jian's surrender!" ”

"No, in this case, our Zhang family will really become the enemy of dozens of families in the Wujun gentry class!"

Zhang Chu hurriedly shook his head and said.

"You are not now, since you have become an enemy, you have to be thorough, you had better understand now, without Sun Jian's support, our Zhang family of hundreds of people will die!"

Old lady Zhang sneered and said: "So you go to see Sun Jian immediately, even if he wants all the property and land of our Zhang family, you have to give it." ”

"No!" Zhang Chu's heart was cold, he understood what his father meant, the Zhang family had no way out, and if they wanted to survive, they had to be close to the Sun family.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

With the complete surrender of the representative local gentry Zhang family, the close-knit group of local gentry in Wu County was divided, and the influence of the Zhang family was not low, and they received the support of Sun Jian, and they won over several families and began to cooperate with the policy of the county guard.

For a time, the policies promulgated by Sun Jian received strong support, and the foundation of the Sun family in Wu County became more solid, and the entire Wu County began to enter a calm and high-speed development stage.

At the same time, Sun Jian and his generals also began to plan preparations for the war against Huiji and Danyang.

There is an advance of the Gu family, one of the four major families in Jiangdong, there is no need to wait for the spring harvest, and now the grain and grass of the Jiangdong Army are also sufficient, and they can start a war at any time, the reason why Sun Jian is still calm, the first is that the recent turmoil in Wu County has brought hidden dangers, which makes him feel that his rear is not very stable, and he must be suppressed for a period of time.

There is another one, that is, the strength of the Jiangdong Army is insufficient now.

After Sun Jian defeated Dong Zhuo, he brought back more than 28,000 elite soldiers and horses, and after entering Wu County, he collected tens of thousands of county soldiers, and when he fought against Xu Gong and Yan Baihu, he also accepted tens of thousands of prisoners, and now Sun Jian has about 50,000 troops in his hands.

However, the combat effectiveness of these county soldiers and prisoners is not strong, and they are still in intense training, as long as the training is completed, Sun Jian will have enough troops in his hands to start the war, and the Jiangdong Campaign will inevitably start at that time.

Sun Jian's fame and strength are too strong, whether it is Danyang Zhou Xin or Huiji Guo Yi, they all regard Sun Jian as the number one enemy, whether Sun Jian attacks Huiji or Danyang, the other side will attack, so if Sun Jian wants to attack one side, he must have enough troops to resist the other side.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, the naval army in Sun Jian's hands can't be taken out now.

Of Sun Jian's 50,000 troops, 5,000 are naval troops, and they are still training in Taihu Lake.

Jiangdong's territory, many lakes and rivers, the navy has become an important type of troops, the Jiangdong navy is mainly those people brought back by Sun Ce and Sun Quan's brothers, and more than 1,000 sailors of Wu County have also been captured, and some water thieves around Taihu Lake have captured a lot of people, which is enough for 5,000 soldiers with good water nature.

The Jiangdong Navy is still in its infancy, there are not many people who know how to fight the navy, and the main general of the navy is still hanging in the air.

At present, Jiangdong's naval force can be regarded as a warship, with only one fighting ship, 16 warships, and the others are all small ships.

The elite of Danyang's navy was basically captured by the Sun Ce brothers, so there is nothing to worry about, but if it encounters the Huiji navy, the Jiangdong navy will be defeated, after all, the Huiji navy is definitely the most powerful navy in Jiangdong.

How the Jiangdong Navy can become stronger in a short period of time has become Sun Jian's biggest worry recently.

――――――――――

Mid-May.

On this day, the weather was very good, Sun Quan got up early in the morning and began to play Tai Chi in the courtyard, Tai Chi can nourish his body, his body has just healed, he is still very weak and needs to recuperate.

And in the battle of the temple, the last sword of the man in black was too fierce, although he blocked it, but the sword momentum forcibly injured his internal organs, leaving him with some sequelae.

"Childe, what kind of boxing technique are you!" Xu Sheng suddenly appeared next to him, he originally laughed a little at Sun Quan's slow boxing technique, but after watching it for a while, the martial artist's instinct made him feel that this set of boxing techniques was a bit mysterious.

"Tai Chi!"

Sun Quan played a white crane with bright wings, his hand shook, and said with a smile.

"Tai Chi!" Xu Sheng's eyes were a little puzzled, he hadn't heard of it, there was no saying about the rivers and lakes in this era, but the rangers still existed, and he had also come into contact with many rangers, and he had never heard of this kind of slow swordsmanship.

"Although this set of boxing techniques is a bit mysterious, it is too slow!" Xu Shengyou took a closer look and said in a low voice, "It's not suitable for me." ”

"That's what it does, it's fast with slow and fast with static braking."

Sun Quan smiled slightly and said, "Tai Chi can be healthy, and it is the best boxing method for my patients who have just recovered." After saying a while, he asked Xu Sheng while punching, "By the way, I will explain what you have done, but it can be done." ”

"It's all done!"

Xu Sheng nodded and said: "According to your instructions, I found a place in the south of the city, the place is good, the layout is similar to that of the county government, it can integrate three or five hundred people, and the weapons and clothes you want me to arrange have also been arranged, and they have been delivered." ”

"That's good!"

Sun Quan raised his breath and tightened his fists, showing a satisfied smile, looking at the clear sky, the corners of his mouth outlined a touch of deep meaning, and said: "My Jinyi Guard should also be established!" ”

This time, he was ambushed at the door of his own house and almost died, which made Sun Quan feel a little palpitated, and even his own territory was not safe, so what else could be safe.

Xu Gong's hundreds of elite dead soldiers returned to Wu County, but the Jiangdong Army did not find a trace from beginning to end, this is a big loophole, Xu Gong and Zhang Chu Gu Zhou colluded, and he did not have a trace of news, so he was very angry.

Wu County is the most important city of Sun Jian's regime, and now Wu County cannot be completely controlled, and there is nothing else to talk about.

Jinyi Wei must be established, Jinyi travels at night, supervises the world of the Sun family, and this kind of thing of being suddenly assassinated by hundreds of people at the door of the house must not occur again.
