Chapter 65: Sun Jian begged for food
After sending Sun Jian away, Wen Chou summoned Tian Feng, Guo Jia, Xun Yu, Tian Chou and others, told them about the plan and division of labor with Sun Jian, and said, "What do you think? ”
Tian Feng smiled: "What Ming Gong is worried about is exactly! Dong thief has been arrogant for a long time, just frustrating his military might! The soldiers of Yuzhou should be used by us! ”
Wen Chou smiled: "In this way, the Qing and the others will do their own thing." ”
The people of Tian Chou dispersed as promised.
Since Kong Ling arrived in Yingchuan, although Wen Chou and he did not see much, but not idle, in addition to training soldiers in the army every day, and also sent Tian Feng, Tian Chou and others to visit the generals in the Yuzhou army respectively, to this day, all the generals who have actively marched and courted Dong Zhuo have been moved by Tian Feng and others, and are willing to stay until Wen Chou sends troops, and Wen Chou will march side by side.
Early the next morning, Sun Jian got up and washed up a little, then called Wu Jing, Sun Ben, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, Huang Gai, Zu Mao and others, and said, "I want to go to see Kong Yuzhou, Qing and others will stay behind to guard the camp wall,...... Da Mao, you come with me. ”
Da Mao is the word of Zu Mao.
At this time, seeing that Sun Jian was going to see Kong Ling, Wu Jing was stunned, turned his head to look at the sky outside, although he had heard the rooster crow, but it was still as black as ink, and there was no light, and said: "The sky is not yet dawn, and it is okay to go to see Kong Yuzhou now, but Kong Yuzhou was driven out of the county government by the general first, and now he must hold a grudge, and the general only takes Da Mao to go alone, I am afraid that it is not appropriate, please wait for the general, I will order five hundred fine armor and go from the general." ”
"Why so many people? Da Mao and I are enough. ”
When they saw that he had made up their minds, they had no choice but to make a promise.
Sun Jian and Zu Mao then got out of the tent and put on their armor, took their mounts, and left the camp surrounded by Wu Jing and others, and then turned over and got on their horses, each holding a torch in their hands. With the reflection of the road, gallop to the military garrison in Yuzhou.
After Kong Ling was driven out of the Yingchuan County Mansion by Sun Jian, he had no face to live in the city anymore, so he moved to live in the Yuzhou Army.
He didn't even live in the back house of the county government, let alone think about going to the camp of Wen Chou, these two days. The Yuzhou army is busy building the camp, and the battalion of more than 40,000 cavalry used for long-term stationing is not so easy to build, and it is only a rough idea to build until today, but the gate has been built, and when Sun Jian and others arrived, it should be that someone in the camp had just gone out, and the gate had not yet been closed, and it was hidden.
Seeing Sun Jian and Zu Mao running with torches, the guards of the gate came out to meet them at the door. He saluted and asked, "The general came at night, and dared to ask what was the matter?" ”
Sun Jian drove Kong Ling out of the back house of the county government, although he had only arrived in Yingchuan for a short time, his reputation had been enhanced, and many generals and colonels in the Yuzhou army knew him, and this Yuanmen guard also knew Sun Jian's appearance,—— and it was because he saw Sun Jian coming. He took the initiative to greet him and asked carefully.
Sun Jian did not dismount either. said: "I'm here to see Kong Yuzhou." ”
"It's still early, and Yuzhou may not have gotten up yet."
"It doesn't matter, I'll call him."
The guards of the gate can guard the gate, and he is a close confidant of Kong Ling, seeing that Sun Jian is not good, he is violent. Embarrassed, he said, "This ......." ”
"I received a military report that Dong Zhuo sent 50,000 cavalry and entered the border of Yingchuan County. The military situation is urgent, and Kong Yuzhou is the assassin of our state. But how can you still be high and bedridden? You are quick to lead the way and report to me, and if you delay military discipline, you should be dealt with by military law. ”
Hearing Dong Zhuo's invasion, the gate guard was startled, didn't dare to say more, hurriedly responded to the promise, turned around, led the way, and took Sun Jian and others into the camp. Kong Ling lived in the Chinese army, far away from Yuanmen, and it was still dark when Sun Jian waited outside the camp, and it was already light when he arrived in front of Kong Ling's tent. The guard of the gate asked Sun Jian and others to pause first, and then walked quickly to the outside of the tent, and relayed Sun Jian's words to the guards of the guards, and the guards outside the tent listened, Dong Zhuobu rode 50,000 to invade the border? was also taken aback, and hurriedly reported it in the account.
Sun Jian was impatient to wait outside the tent, told Zu Mao to watch the mount, and went to the tent alone.
The guards of the gate and the guards outside the tent had the heart to step forward to stop them, and it could be seen that Sun Jian pressed his sword and raised his head, as fierce as a tiger, but he didn't dare to stop it, and when he wanted to stop it, Sun Jian had already strode into the tent. When Sun Jian entered the tent, Kong Ling had not yet woken up, and the guard who went to pass the word was still calling him softly.
Sun Jian waited on the side for a while, and saw that Kong Ling had turned over, but he still hadn't woken up, so he took a few steps forward, approached the front of the couch, pushed aside the guard, and said loudly to Kong Ling on the side couch: "Dong Zhuojun has arrived!" Wake up quickly! ”
The sky was not yet bright, and it was very quiet inside and outside the tent, Sun Jian's voice was like thunder, which suddenly woke Kong Ling up.
"What?"
"Woke you up?"
"......, General Sun?"
"Exactly down there."
woke up in his tent, opened his eyes and saw Sun Jian, Kong Ling thought he was wrong, but after a closer look, it was indeed Sun Jian, seeing Sun Jian's armor and sword, and the tiger standing in front of the couch, Kong Ling suddenly fell asleep, quickly sat up, and asked in surprise: "Why is the general in my tent?" What are you? What are you? …… General, what is this going to do? ”
The guard said on the side: "Duke Yuming, General Sun said that he received a military report that Dong Zhuo sent 50,000 cavalry to invade our territory. ”
"Huh? 50,000 steps to ride? Into my territory? This news shocked Kong Ling even more than waking up and seeing Sun Jian.
Sun Jian said: "Don't be surprised, my words are true." ”
"Falsehood?" Although Kong Ling's sleepiness has disappeared, he has just woken up from a dream, and his brain is still a little unclear, first he saw Sun Jian in front, and then he heard Dong Zhuo attacking, and then heard Sun Jian say that this was fake, and in just a few moments, there were too many shocking things that appeared one after another, making him a little unclear about the situation all of a sudden, and he could only subconsciously repeat the words of the guard and Sun Jian one after another.
"Although it is a lie, there is a lesson from Dong Zhuojun's Luoyang City, but it may not be long before my false words will become a reality."
"Oh?"
"Thinking that Dong Zhuo, holding the Son of Heaven hostage, commanding the court, and being unruly, it is really extremely rebellious, and now the Kanto region has raised troops, and the king is also among them, Dong Zhuo in order to protect himself, I expected, sooner or later he will definitely invade my Yingchuan again."
"Oh."
"To make Jun assassinate the history of Yuzhou, he has the responsibility of protecting the territory, in order to avoid Dong Zhuo sending troops to attack again, I think it is better to make Jun and the army attack him first."
"Oh!"
Whether Dong Zhuojun is coming, whether this is true or not, or what will happen in the future, these are not in Kong Ling's consideration for the time being, and he gradually cleared his mind. The first reaction was to look directly at the guard, and his eyes signaled, telling him to hurry up and summon the other guards outside the tent to come in, but unfortunately, although there was a candle flame in the tent, it was a broken candle. The lights were not on, and the guard was blocked by Sun Jian again, and he couldn't see his eyes. Kong Ling was angry and anxious, listening to Sun Jian's words, but he didn't have a brain at all, and only promised to respond.
Sun Jian said a few words, and saw Kong Ling's eyes drifting straight to his side, absent-mindedly, obviously not listening to his words. simply stepped forward again, approached the couch, and said loudly: "Envoy! ”
Kong Ling was startled, moved back, and finally turned his gaze to Sun Jian's body, and let out an "ah".
"Can you hear what I just said?"
"Listen, hear clearly."
"What did I say?"
"What did you say?"
"I'm asking the envoy what I just said, but why does Ming Gong ask me?"
“…… I didn't hear it clearly, General, please say it again. ”
"I just said: Dong Zhuo is a rebellious thief. Sooner or later, I will come back to attack Yingchuan, so that you should ride Yuan Che to ask Dong. This is the responsibility of entering the army, as the assassin of Yuzhou, and the responsibility of protecting the territory and the people, rather than waiting for Dong Zhuo to invade again, I think it is better to attack it first. ”
"Strike first?"
"Exactly."
"The general of the chariot cavalry is the leader of the alliance for us to raise troops this time. He didn't give the order to come down, so how could I march alone? ”
"Although Yuan Cheqi is the leader of the alliance, he is stationed in Hanoi, far away from me, soldiers. Aircraft also, fighting a war is about fighter planes, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, how can you wait for the order of the cavalry in everything? Sun Ziyun: 'The king's order is not subject to it'. The king's order is still not subject to it, but the car rides? And look at the situation of today's army, called a family, it is divided into four roads, and I Yingchuan is the only way, so that the king is responsible for the history of the state assassination, so he should take on the heavy responsibility at this time, and he should take the initiative to attack when he should attack. In this way, it can be called wise. ”
"It's ......."
"But what?"
"But Dong Zhuo's soldiers are strong and strong, if I attack alone all the way, I am afraid it will be disadvantageous."
"I have more than 30,000 troops with General Wen, and I am willing to march with the envoy to attack Dong."
"Even if there are generals, civil and military forces and my joint troops, I am afraid that I will not be able to win."
"Make Jun because of the righteous soldiers, respond to Yuan Che Cai, want to turn the tide, to Kuang Fu Han Room as a call, so the six counties Wen Xuan, all of them do their best to help, the day of the military gathering, the flag is like a forest, the foot riding is strong, Lu, Liang Xiongjie obeyed the orders under the account, Chen, Ru Haoqiang are bowed in front of the army, a word, a hundred generals contend, under an order, ten thousand people forget to die, Weizhen State, the name of the territory, when it is also, the people of Yu Fang all place their hopes on the envoy, hoping that the monarch can clear the demon atmosphere early, but since the envoy to my county, the military horses are vacant, and it has been a long time since the army and horses have not moved. Envoy, the public doesn't want to avenge the people of Yangcheng, but now when he attacks, why is he suspicious and timid, and he hesitates repeatedly? I'm not talented, but I also asked the envoy: Isn't the envoy afraid of being ridiculed by the handsome in the state, and isn't he afraid of being looked down upon by the heroes of the Quartet? ”
"If I don't want to join the army, it's really hard to scream."
"Since the envoy is unwilling to enter the army, General Wen and I are willing to send troops alone."
"Huh?"
Sun Jian ignored Kong Ling's surprise, and continued to take care of himself: "It's just that General Wen and I are both short of food, although we want to fight, we can't get it. If you don't want to march today, please lend me and General Xun some grain. ”
"Grain?"
Kong Ling immediately understood the reason why Sun Jian came to him before dawn, and after a long time, he used Dong Zhuo to send troops to scare people, and he used bold words to provoke Kong Ling to leave the army, but it turned out that Xiang Zhuang's sword dance was intended for Pei Gong, but in fact, he came to borrow grain.
Sun Jian just drove Kong Ling out of the back house of the county government a few days ago, Kong Ling was greatly embarrassed by him, and he was embarrassed and indignant, if the generals under the account were not obedient, I am afraid that he would have ordered troops to attack him and fight with him, where would he be willing to lend him food?
It's just that, although he didn't want to, he didn't dare to refuse at this time. Sun Jian was right in front of him, if he rejected him, there was a humiliating past that he led his troops out of the county government, who knows what this martial artist would do?
Kong Ling said: "Although there is not much food in our army, since the general mentioned it, in order to help the general fight against the rebellion, I should pour my money with it." ”
"Then please give the envoy's order."
"......, it's still early, so why hurry? When it was daylight, I summoned the keeper of the grain and told him to take it and give it to the general. ”
"Without further ado, please give the envoy an order now."
"How anxious the general is!"
"It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's me and Wenwu who want to attack Dong anxious."
"It's ......."
Sun Jian pressed the sword in his waist, looked at Kong Ling, and said, "What? Is it unwilling? What you just said was actually coaxing me? ”
"How could this be?"
"Then please give the envoy an order immediately."
Kong Ling was forced by him to have no choice, so he had to write a military order, write it, show it to Sun Jian, and said, "The general should believe that I am not unwilling, right?" ”
Sun Jian glanced at it, shook his head, and said, "It seems that the envoy is still reluctant. ”
Kong Ling was angry and said, "My military orders have been written, why are you reluctant?" ”
"If you are willing, you will not write Xiaoshi."
The measurement system of the Han family is divided into large and small stones, and three small stones are about two large stones.
Seeing that Sun Jian asked for Dashi, Kong Ling had no choice but to rewrite the previous order, write it, hand it to Sun Jian, and said, "The general believes my sincerity, right?" ”
Sun Jian looked at it and saw that the military order had written an order to send 20,000 stones of grain to Sun Jian and the Wenchou Department, and said, "The sincerity of the envoy is still insufficient." ”
"You ......."
"I have more than 30,000 troops with General Wen, and we need 300 stone for daily use, and 20,000 stone grain is only enough for more than 60 days' food, how can it be enough?"
"How much does the general want?"
"Another 20,000 stone is about the same,...... Just make up a whole number, 50,000 stones. ”
Kong Ling said in his heart: "You don't know the strategy of the army, how can 30,000 people eat 300 stone of grain in one day?" But he didn't dare to distinguish with Sun Jian, so he reluctantly responded, "Okay, good." He wrote another military order, handed it to Sun Jian, and said, "General, please take a look." ”
Sun Jian took a closer look and said, "The envoy is indeed full of sincerity. Then he said, "Then I ask the prince to give this order to the man in charge of grain, and tell him to take food and order his troops, and send him to my camp." ”
Kong Ling agreed, thinking in his heart: "I will perfunctory you first, and when you are out of my tent, I will send a military order again, telling you not to transport grain." The general's order was handed over to the guard, and he ordered him to go out immediately to deliver the order, and at the same time, he got up in his clothes and said to Sun Jian, "I will send the general out of the camp." ”
"Out of what camp?"
Kong Ling was stunned and said, "Didn't the general come to borrow grain?" This grain has been lent to the general's ....... ”
"I got up early, and I haven't eaten yet, so I'll bother you with a meal here."
“……。”
Sun Jian ate this meal until the afternoon, Kong Ling made excuses to get out of the account several times, but he stopped him, and waited until Zu Mao came in outside the tent to report that all the grain of 50,000 stones had been transported to Sun Jian's army, and Sun Jian laughed and said goodbye.
Don't do it, don't do it, but he still refused to go with Zu Mao alone, and dragged Kong Ling to send him off, and went out of the Yuzhou Army's Yuanmen, and went forward for a few miles, before he let Kong Ling go, rode a horse, and went away with Zu Mao. (To be continued......)
