Chapter 119: Sun Jian leaves
Originally, Sun Jian had lost more than 2,000 people after hard work, and he could only get less than 100 carts of gold and silver from Lu Bu's hands.
Later, Sun Jian helped bury the tombs of the first emperors that were dug up by Lu Bu, and found that there were still a lot of gold and silver treasures scattered or unfinished by Lu Bujun, Sun Jian of course would not be polite to the first emperors, but also learned from Lu Bu to collect a lot of gold and silver treasures, and then learned to sell them now, and dug up the tombs of some palace ministers.
Sun Jian also wanted to dig the emperor's mausoleum, but it was all dug up by Lu Bu, and the meat was eaten, so Sun Jian could only eat some residual meat residue. Since you can't dig up the emperor, you can only do it to the princes and ministers, although you don't eat a mouth full of oil like Lu Bu, but you also make a lot of money. It is a fool not to take advantage of it, although Sun Jian prides himself on being a loyal minister, but the wealth is moving, so many people under Sun Jian's command want to eat, and there is an insatiable master Yuan Shu, if you don't gather more money, the future will be really difficult.
But a lot of hard work has cheapened others, Sun Jian's heart is dripping blood, like a knife twisting, and the pain is intense.
Dong Shouye saw Sun Jian commanding the gold and silver cart to step forward, and immediately sent a team of soldiers to hand it over. After checking that there were no mistakes, the soldiers immediately reported to Dong Shouye. Dong Shouye saw that Sun Jian didn't move his hands and feet, playing some tricks, and was very sincere, so he said: "Thank you Uncle Sun for understanding the little nephew." â
Sun Jian saw that a lot of money was handed over to others, how could he feel comfortable, and he didn't have the heart to be polite to Dong Shouye anymore, so he said: "General Dong is polite, this is just an agreement between the two families, and Sun is just fulfilling the contract." Seeing that the soldiers in Dong Shouye's army had already escorted the gold and silver back to the battle, he waved his hand again and signaled the flag officer to order the grain and grass to be transported up.
The flag bearer followed the order, and it was not long before the baggage trucks escorted the grain and grass to the front of the two armies. Sun Jian originally had about a month's and a half months of grain and grass in his hands, about more than 13,000 stone of grain, but after this period of consumption, as well as the five days of dry food he kept, now he has about 8,000 stones for Dong Shouye. In the Han Dynasty, each baggage cart could transport about 800 to 1,000 catties of grain, that is, each cart could transport about 15 stones, and more than 8,000 stones of grain needed more than 500 baggage carts.
Seeing this, Dong Shouye immediately waved his hand again and ordered the army to come and accept the grain. It will not be long before a school of people will leave the battle and come to receive food. First, check the food that is about to arrive, make sure that the other party is not cheating and deceiving yourself, and after confirming the results, you can start transporting it back to the army.
Assigned to each specific car, that is, one person pulls the car, two or three people push the car, the weather is dry and dry, the road is smooth, pull up the car, no pressure, the speed is fast.
Dong Shouye saw that Sun Jian didn't play any tricks, and he didn't want to pick any more thorns, so he happily put Sun Jing back, and when he was leaving, he asked people to return Sun Jing's weapons, armor, war horses, etc.
In fact, Sun Jing's weapons, armor, and war horses are relatively ordinary, and Dong Shouye didn't take a fancy to them. If you want to say that Sun Jing is Sun Jian's younger brother, how could he be so stumbling, or is it because when Sun Jian was defeated by Dong Shouye last time, everyone only cared about fleeing for their lives, and many things were lost as a burden, and even the war horse was exhausted to death, so Sun Jing's equipment was so stumbling.
Sun Jian saw that the two sides had completed the handover, and he no longer wanted to see Dong Shouye, and just wanted to leave this place as much as possible, so he arched his hand towards Dong Shouye and said: "General Dong, now that you and I have handed over smoothly, I hope that General Dong can keep his promise and let Sun lead the army back as soon as possible." â
Dong Shouye is also making a lot of money now, and he is in a good mood, so he said: "Uncle Sun, you're polite, since everything is done, Uncle Sun can go wherever he wants, and the little nephew will never stop him." â
When Sun Jian heard this, he arched his hand towards Dong Shouye again, and was about to turn around and leave.
At this time, Dong Shouye suddenly said: "Uncle Sun, the little nephew still has a word, I wonder if my uncle can listen to it?" â
Sun Jianhu was suspicious, but he didn't dare to offend Dong Shouye immediately, so he could only reply stubbornly: "General Dong is polite, please speak, Sun Mou listens!" â
Dong Shouye smiled when he heard this, and said: "After Uncle Sun leaves the customs, please withdraw the soldiers and horses of Yangcheng, and the little nephew will send someone to Yangcheng to receive the city in the near future. â
Hearing this, Sun Jian replied: "Sun will inform Yuan of this matter, as for how Yuan Gong will deal with it, Sun is powerless to interfere, and he also asks General Dong for understanding." â
Dong Shouye thought that what Sun Jian said was also the truth, so he didn't say more, and then ordered the troops to make a way.
The role of Yangcheng is somewhat similar to the southern bridgehead of Luoyang. If you want to attack Luoyang from the south, you can't bypass Yangcheng, and if you bypass Yangcheng and enter the pass directly, you may be cut off by Yangcheng. Moreover, relying on Yangcheng can also suppress the forces of Yuzhou and limit its rise.
Sun Jian saw that Dong Shouye had already made way for his subordinates according to his command, so he did not hesitate and immediately commanded the whole army to leave.
Originally, Dong Shouye wanted to mention the marriage with Sun Jian again, the reason why Sun Jian refused Dong Zhuo's proposal was that on the one hand, he cherished his feathers, and on the other hand, he also held on to the prestige of Yang ** to win Hu Zhen, and now Dong Shouye has let his military situation suffer another setback, and he proposes to Sun Jian with an almost victorious attitude, and the possibility of success is relatively large, and if the two families are married, the benefits to Sun Jian are very many, at least he can have a good base and develop his strength justifiably. It's much stronger than blindly clinging to Yuan Shu.
The reason why Dong Shouye had the idea of proposing to Sun Jian again was to implement the established strategy of his father Dong Zhuo, and on the other hand, when Sun Jian died young as in history, when Sun Jiajun was in the most difficult time, he subdued Sun Jiajun, Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang and other outstanding talents.
In fact, Dong Shouye is a little nervous about marriage, but after Jia Xu's enlightenment, he suddenly became enlightened, as Dong Zhuo's son, as a political figure, active participation or passive participation in political marriage is an inevitable result. is as strong as Sun Ce, who also married Cao Cao, and based on this, Dong Shouye felt that the possibility of marrying the Sun family was zĂ i.
However, in Jia Xu's opinion, even if he marries Sun Jian in the future, Sun Jian's daughter cannot be Dong Shouye's wife, in the past, when Sun Jian was in good shape, that is, when he had just defeated Hu Zhen, there was no problem, but now that his army has weakened, his value has naturally dropped a lot.
