Chapter 496: Ambition
"This Qin Feng is good!" Liu Mang smiled and nodded, such a teammate of the pit father, Liu Mang naturally didn't want him to use it to pit himself, but it was good to use it to pit the opponent.
"This pavilion and the position of the Taishou are promised!" Liu Mang asked Jia Xu to record and reply to Yangzhou, with Qin Feng's credit, these two positions are really not much, after all, Sun Quan's 70,000 army will definitely make Jiangdong's strength retreat.
"But this too guarded position can't be in Linhuai!" Liu Mang thought for a while and said, this Qin Feng has been the emperor of the soil in Linhuai for many years, if he is allowed to be in Linhuai again, it is inevitable that there will be some problems, for example, he will wait for the price to sell, although he has offended Jiangdong Sun Ce, he can't go back, but he will inevitably have other ideas, such as the one from Xu Du, if it is possible, he will definitely not let go of this opportunity to give Liu Mang eye medicine.
And Linhuai is only Liu Mang's first step, Liu Mang's most important thing is to occupy the Huaiyin generation to have an outlet to the sea, Linhuai is an important position, so Linhuai's Taishou will definitely not be able to give this Qin Feng.
"Anfeng hasn't guarded too much now!" Liu Mang remembered that Anfeng hadn't arranged the Taishou yet, because the last time Liu Bei and Zhang Xiu's coalition attacked, Anfeng's Taishou surrendered without a fight, so the position of the Taishou was vacant.
"Let this Qin Feng go to Anfeng!" Anfeng's current geographical location is much worse than before, he was originally a county, but now he is just a county seat, and most of the population has gone to Gwangju, with Hao Shao in Gwangju to ensure that Liu Mang's western gateway to Yangzhou is not lost, so Anfeng is not so much a county as he has become a subsidiary of Gwangju, basically Anfeng has to listen to Hao Shao in Gwangju. Put this Qin Feng there, don't be afraid of what tricks he plays. And he can be sent out to pit people anytime and anywhere.
"My lord. We also captured the enemy's military division, Lu Su, Lu Zijing, Jiangdong's second son, Sun Quan, Sun Zhongmou," Jia Xu said as he stood on the side.
Liu Mang also continued to watch, and found that the two main captives were these two people, and the others were either killed in battle, or left, "What about Lu Meng and Ling Chao?!" Liu Mang remembered that on the basis of the information sent before, the first to fight with Zhang Liao were Lu Meng and Ling Chao. However, there were no Lu Meng and Ling Chao on the list of prisoners.
Did he die in battle? Liu Mang frowned, Ling Chao was a little better, but this Lu Meng was the object of Liu Mang's attention in Yangzhou, and Liu Mang wanted to know where Lu Meng went.
"Lu Meng and Ling Chao?!" Jia Xu is also very unfamiliar with these two people, at most they belong to a few young generals in Jiangdong, but why is the lord so concerned about them, but Jia Xu also shook his head and said: "The lord should not have died on the battlefield!" Jia Xu didn't understand the value of Lu Meng, but Liu Mang knew that this person was a great talent in Jiangdong after inheriting Zhou Yu and Lu Su, and it was also this person who killed Guan Erye and captured Jingzhou, it can be said that Liu Guanzhang died indirectly at the hands of Lu Meng. Don't look at him as a young player now, but his potential is not bad.
"It should have escaped in Linhuai City!" There are also some defenders in Linhuai City, and those who are not captured are one of the people. Jia Xu really guessed correctly, Ling Chao and Lu Meng were arranged by Sun Quan to guard the city, Sun Quan wanted to put aside the two of them to show their military strength at once, who knew that Zhang Liao played a war of annihilation, this Ling Chao and Lu Meng are not fools, they know that this Linhuai City can't be defended, and they immediately lost Linhuai City, took the hundred people under their command and ran away directly from the waterway, and then they could only add merit to the Yangzhou army!
"Lord, what should I do with this Lu Su Lu Zijing and Sun Quan Sun Zhongmou?!" Jia Xu asked Liu Mang.
"Lu Su, Lu Zijing?!" Liu Mang laughed when he heard this name, this is an acquaintance, during the battle of Lujiang, Liu Mang was bullied by this Lu Su and Lu Zijing, and even Liu Mang himself had to be sacrificed, and then Lu Su's ruined kettle turned over, if it weren't for Gan Ning's naval army fighting for strength on the Yangtze River, Jiang Qin's 30,000 Jiangdong naval army commanded by Jiang Qin was directly sent to the bottom of the Yangtze River, maybe the city would be lost, and the Lujiang River would not be able to hold it, where would there be something later.
In the battle of Lujiang, Lu Su and Lu Zijing were captured by themselves, and they had just been redeemed with thousands of gold, but they didn't expect to be captured again today.
"Lu Su should stay!" Liu Mang didn't want Lu Su to go back anymore, this Lu Su Lu Zijing asked him to go back last time, in addition to the reason for money, there was also an important reason that Liu Mang wanted Jiangdong's craftsmen, and those shipbuilding craftsmen were what Liu Mang really wanted. These craftsmen were bleeding from Jiangdong's heart.
So Lu Su is such a talented person, let's stay.
"Persuade him to surrender first, if Lu Su is willing to surrender, it is best, if he is unwilling, then give me to imprison this person!" If you want Liu Mang to kill Lu Su directly, Liu Mang is really reluctant, this is not Aicai, if it is replaced by Pang Tong's little turkey, Liu Mang will kill him directly without saying a word, but for an honest person like Lu Su, Liu Mang really wants to keep this person.
"As for this second son of Jiangdong?!"
"The lord has a plan?!" Jia Xu looked at Liu Mang and said with a smile.
Looking at the old fox's smile, Liu Mang knew that the old fox should have guessed what he thought.
"Mr. Wenhe must already have a way! Why hide it! What Liu Mang didn't like the most was that Jia Xu, the old fox, stood aside with a clear expression, this feeling made people very uncomfortable, like a detached person looking at everyone, like a fool.
Seeing that Liu Mang was a little disliked, Jia Xu didn't dare to talk nonsense, it was just one word: "Put!" ”
It's really the same as Liu Mang's thoughts, "Mr. Wenhe, tell me, why did I let go of this second son of Jiangdong!" This person is a blue-eyed person, and the overlord of Western Chu back then also had such pupils! Liu Mang deliberately said to Jia Xu that he was born with a vision, which may be explained by a genetic mutation in modern terms. And in the ancients, in this era of lack of technology. Then it's not a single room anymore. Instead, they leaned towards the heavens! thinks that this is auspicious, especially since there was a Western Chu overlord before, so this has also become the appearance of the emperor, which can be very confusing.
"Although blonde hair and blue eyes are good, it's a pity that he has a real little bully on his head!" Jia Xu said regretfully, if Sun Quan's brother was not so talented and not known as the little overlord of Jiangdong, then Sun Quan would really be called the reincarnation of the overlord.
"This Sun Quan was praised by Cao Mengde as a son, like Sun Zhongmou! This talent is brilliant! Did I just let it go? Liu Mang continued to ask. There are only a few people in the world who can get into his eyes like Cao Mengde, and this Sun Quan is also among them, which shows Sun Quan's ability.
"Should you give birth to a child like Sun Zhongmou? What Cao Cao said?! Jia Xu was stunned for a moment, he really hadn't heard this word.
"Ahh Liu Mang saw Jia Xu's confused face, and he was stunned for a moment and then embarrassed, this sentence was the time for Cao Cao and Sun Quan to confront the Yangtze River later, but Liu Mang was worthy of being thick-skinned, and he directly used the original to perfunctory.
"Sun Quan, at the age of fourteen, governs a county and is well organized. The official warehouse is sufficient, and the people live and work in peace and contentment! Envelop the scholars. Let the Jiangdong Shi clan praise him, this person is not a great talent! Liu Mang said in a different direction.
"Being able to govern a county does not mean that you can govern a state, the geniuses of the ancients have been in the past, and there are close Kong's Kong Rong, who is eight years old and makes pears, but what is the ending! Drowning everyone, with great ambitions, but no real talent! "Jia Xu, Kong Rong took it out and compared it with Sun Quan, if Kong Rong and Kong Wenju knew that he wouldn't strangle Jia Xu, the old fox, to death.
"The Jiangdong Shi clan is full of praise for it, and that is the reason why our army let it go back!" Jia Xu said to Liu Mang.
"Oh?! Mr. Wenhe, this Sun Quan is a great talent, let him go back to Jiangdong, isn't this a tiger returning to the mountain! Liu Mang deliberately said to Jia Xu.
"Hehe, one tiger returns to the mountain, and there will be endless troubles, and two tigers return to the mountain, one will die!" Jia Xu said the main point.
Jiangdong is talented, this figure who can make the overlord of Western Chu stand out from the princes of the world, depends on the talents of Jiangdong, but don't forget jì, this Sun Quan is talented, but there is an elder brother above him, if it is an ordinary family, it is easy to say, just like the brothers of the Kuai family, both of them are for the family, and the whole family can be revitalized.
And Sun Quan's Sun family is the master of Jiangdong, this is the real master of Jiangdong, it is the princes, they all belong to the emperor's family, the emperor's family has no feelings, for this position must be difficult to tolerate people, if Sun Quan has no talent, then a lifetime of stability should be very comfortable, but Sun Quan is talented, talented people are naturally unwilling to fall into it, and even Sun Quan is ambitious, blue-eyed and purple-haired people, born with the image of a hegemon, such a person will not allow other people even if they don't want to achieve much.
Sun Ce is a martial artist, because of the force of the overlord to make Jiangdong surrender, but Sun Quan is different, he has a good relationship with the scholar clan in Jiangdong, it can be said that he is a person of the ancestor clan!
Such a lord who is close to the Shi clan, how could the Jiangdong Shi clan not want it! Therefore, for Sun Ce, the Jiangdong clan prefers Sun Quan, but Sun Ce's strength is too strong, with the help of the talented Zhou Yu, and the generals under his command are like clouds, which makes Jiangdong stable for the time being.
If Liu Mang kills Sun Quan, then there will be no benefit in the slightest except for letting the entire Jiangdong have the same enemy, and even the hearts of these Jiangdong clans who were originally ready to move will not move again after seeing Sun Quan die, and Jiangdong will fall into unprecedented stability. But if Liu Mang puts Sun Quan back, it will be different, the Ming Lord in the minds of those Jiangdong scholars is Sun Quan, and Sun Quan is not a stable person, this person is ambitious, otherwise he would not have sent troops to Linhuai alone.
Once Sun Quan has gone too far, then there are only two ways left for Sun Ce, the first is to abdicate and make way for Xian, how can an indomitable person like Sun Ce compromise! The second is to kill Sun Quan, Sun Ce killed Sun Quan, what a wonderful picture it will be.
"One Sun Quan can stir up the entire Jiangdong and make him uneasy! Lord, do you kill or not! Jia Xu looked at Liu Mang with a smile and said.
"Put! Naturally you can put! Let's let Koto bleed again! "I don't want to let Liu Mang go for nothing, so I have to pay a ransom" Don't be more, just 5,000 gold! Liu Mang directly stretched out a slap.
"10,000 Gold ?!" Jia Xu was also stunned for a moment, his lord was simply born by ripping bamboo. My heart is so dark. Ten thousand gold. Liu Mang's entire trip to Jingzhou also cost less than 10,000 gold.
"My lord. Will this Jiangdong not give it! ”
"It can't be lower than the beginning, a Lu Su is also worth a thousand gold, I don't believe that he Sun Ce has no money!" Liu Mang will not be polite to Sun Ce, such a younger brother will take back 5,000 gold if you want, don't Liu Mang is not in a hurry, just announce the price directly, and in the end, even if Sun Ce doesn't want it, he will be under the pressure of public opinion. And he bought it back under the pressure of his old mother! Abandoning his own brother, this reputation is not good. It depends on how he Sun Ce chooses.
……
"Boom!" In the Jiangdong Navy camp, this is the umpteenth time that Sun Ce has directly chopped off the entire case, and his hand is up and down, this coffee table made of hardwood can't hold on to a blow at all.
This is the strength of Sun Ce's God Refining Peak Martial Artist, and there is the power of the dragon elephant between raising his head and raising his hand. The blood in his body is vigorous, but now because the blood is too strong, Sun Ce can't help it at all.
There was only one person standing next to Sun Ce, this person was a lupine scarf. It has the grace of a literati and the heroism of a warrior. The two temperaments are mixed together, but they don't make people feel abrupt at all, but they feel very comfortable, this is Zhou Lang Zhou Gongjin of Jiangdong, Sun Ce is so angry that only a person like Zhou Yu can persuade him.
"Tell the lord, Lu Meng and General Ling Chao are back, and now they are asking to see them outside the gate!" A herald ran in, and he didn't dare to gasp more as he watched the chaos in the big tent.
"Hehe, hehe, and the face back? How can they not die on the battlefield, how can they not die in Linhuai, let them go, get out! Sun Ce slammed his palm on the new case table again, and the new case that had just moved in less than a cup of tea fell apart again.
Sawdust flew sideways, Zhou Yu and the herald were directly splashed into, Zhou Yu had the strength of a warrior and could naturally dodge, but the herald was not so lucky, the sawdust can be said to be stuck in the body, and the body is fine, after all, it has the protection of armor, but the face was blown out of the blood groove by sawdust, and the blood immediately dyed his face red, but the herald did not dare to say anything, he was afraid of their lord. The lord didn't speak, he didn't even dare to wipe the blood.
"Go down! Bandage yourself and don't fall behind! Zhou Yu looked at the herald whose face was covered with sawdust, and stepped forward and said, although the wounds on his face are not big, but there are many wounds, and if he bleeds too much, he will die.
"Yes!" The herald was very grateful to Zhou Yu, and hurriedly walked out under Zhou Yu's nod, he didn't want to be affected by the pond fish.
"Bo Fu, why be so angry! Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and there is no winning general in this world! Even you and I have lost a game in Sanjiangkou! Zhou Yu wanted to comfort Sun Ce.
But Sun Ce did not reduce the momentum of anger in the slightest, but pointed to the case on the ground that was about to be torn to shreds and said, "Where is this matter of victory or defeat? This is completely a pig, a pig, 70,000 troops attacked 10,000 soldiers and horses but were completely annihilated, such a battle can be won even if a pig is commanded! "Sun Ce is simply angry eruption, if Yangzhou exhausted the soldiers and horses and defeated the Jiangdong army, then Sun Ce would not say much, but there were only 10,000 people, and in the end they were wiped out by 10,000 people, such a person Jiangdong can't afford to lose.
"Bo Fu! It's not that I am so ambitious to destroy my own prestige, above the land battle, this Lu Bujun is the real king of the land, and the wolf rides in the state, and every one of the camps is an ace department! Bo Fu has forgotten the battle of Zhancheng! ”
"Castle?!" Sun Ce's pupils contracted, Shucheng, this is a pain for Sun Ce, and it is also a place where he Sun Ce defeated and returned, 100,000 troops, except for 5,000 soldiers and horses who escaped, the others were all lost in Yangzhou.
Sun Ce didn't want to mention this kind of achievement, and he didn't allow others to mention it, but fortunately it was Zhou Yu, if he changed to a general, he might only answer Sun Ce's sword.
Seeing that Sun Ce had a reaction, Zhou Yu continued: "Xiliang Iron Cavalry, I believe you have also encountered Bo Fu, although it is not as good as this Bingzhou wolf cavalry, it is also one of the best heavy armored cavalry!" "Xiliang Iron Cavalry Sun Ce has really seen it, and even fought, when the princes of the Eighteenth Route besieged Dong Zhuo. Dong Zhuo's subordinates relied on the Xiliang Iron Cavalry the most. It can be said that the princes of the Eighteen Roads have basically fought with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
And Sun Ce's father, Sun Jian, was a pioneer at the beginning. Naturally, he fought with Dong Zhuo the most profoundly, and the strength of the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was not covered, and Zu Mao's death and Sun Jian's rout were all brought by the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
"The other one is the Black Chess Army!" Speaking of this black chess army, Zhou Yu is a relatively silent person, because this black chess army is the private soldier of their Shucheng Zhou family, it is the Zhou family's money for several generations, plus decades of hard work to be able to become an army, originally planned to help Jiangdong Sun Ce make contributions in Jiangdong. So that the status of the Zhou family in Jiangdong rose more and more, but I didn't expect that the battle of Xucheng not only lost the black chess army, but also was reversed by the enemy.
"This black chess army is not inferior to any of the soldiers and horses under the command of Zhibo Fu!" Zhou Yu gave this evaluation.
"As for this Zhang Liao Zhang Wenyuan!" Zhou Yu frowned, although this person is a general under Lu Bu, but he has always appeared as a deputy general, this time Zhang Liao personally led the army, and he fought such a beautiful ending in the first battle. Let Zhou Yu not frown and treat Lu Bujun. There will be another great enemy.
"Lu Bu's subordinates can follow Lu Bu here, and he can be regarded as a fierce general, and it is reasonable for the second son to lose!" Zhou Yu is still saying good things for Sun Quan, this does not mean that Zhou Yu has a good impression of Sun Quan, on the contrary, Zhou Yu is very jealous of Sun Quan, the second prince of Jiangdong, because this person is talented and wins the hearts of the people, and most of the Jiangdong scholars have a good impression of him, such a person is Sun Ce's second brother, and Zhou Yu is not vigilant to have a ghost.
But now Zhou Yu has to speak for Sun Quan.
"Seventy thousand, seventy thousand!" Sun Ce smiled bitterly, among the 70,000 troops, there were 20,000 elites, but except for the 5,000 elites who were lost by Lu Meng, the others were defeated by Sun Quan in Linhuai.
"Gong Jin, could it be said that this Lu Buweng son-in-law is our nemesis in Jiangdong!" Sun Ce was almost confused, he, as an elder brother, had not been able to beat Liu Mang, the king of Shu, and was taught a good lesson by Liu Mang, the 100,000 army lost 95,000, this is better as a younger brother, the 70,000 army was directly lost, and even took himself in. This had to make Sun Ce feel confused, this defeat in the hands of Yangzhou was 170,000 soldiers and horses, and most of his Jiangdong strength was consumed here.
"My lord! I said that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, if he Lu Bu is a victorious general, he will still be driven out of Yanzhou by Cao Cao and Cao Mengde, and in the end even Xuzhou has not been able to hold, like a lost dog, if it is not for the previous support of our army, maybe this lost dog still does not know where to wander and reverberate! Zhou Yu originally wanted to make Sun Ce's heart more comfortable, but the more he talked about it, the heavier Sun Ce's heart sank.
Oh, yes! It was he Sun Ce who supported Lu Bujun to lead the current ending, if Sun Ce was fantasizing at the beginning, if he hadn't calculated Lu Bujun at the beginning, if he had sent Lu Bujun away from the beginning and end, maybe there wouldn't be so much trouble now! Even because of Lu Bu's evaluation of Sun Jian's fall of the star, Sun Ce's good impression of Lu Bu was greatly increased, and he almost felt that he was a confidant, and he hated to see each other late, but under a calculation, the relationship between the two families broke down, Lu Bu occupied Lujiang, fought a battle with the Jiangdong Army in Lujiang, and fought another battle in Linhuai, two battles and two defeats!
There is no regret medicine in the world, and there are not so many ifs!
"Let the two of them get in!" Sun Ce sighed and said to the guards under his command, being persuaded by Zhou Yu like this, although he was not completely persuaded by Zhou Yu, Sun Ce was not as irritable as before, and now he was thinking about letting Lu Meng and Ling Chao in.
"Yes!" The guards took the order and left, but soon the guards came back and hugged Sun Ce and Lu Meng and Ling Chao and did not come in.
"Why don't they come, and I want to invite them in person!" Sun Ce was a little angry and said. The anger that had just fallen rose again.
Zhou Yu thought about it and walked out in person, wanting to see what was going on! But he also came back soon, hugged his fists at Sun Ce and said, "Lord, you better go out and have a look!" ”
"Why, they don't even give you the face of the Metropolitan Governor! Those who know know that the two of them are defeated generals, and those who don't know think that they are victorious generals! Sun Ce was not polite at all. Someone has come and got a sword! Sun Ce directly pulled out the long sword, and the cold light was shining, which made people frightened.
Sun Ce walked outside the gate, only to find two people kneeling there. Naked, with thorns on his back.
What a typical guilty plea! No wonder Zhou Yu asked Sun Ce to come out and take a look in person.
saw Sun Ce walk out. Lu Meng and Ling Chao immediately clenched their fists and lowered their heads, and said in shame, "The general of the defeated army." Lu Meng, Ling Chao, ashamed to see the lord, we failed to take Linhuai, and let the second son be captured, the crime deserves death, and please give the lord death! ”
"Haha, haha!" Sun Ce saw the appearance of these two people. Instead of being angry, he laughed, and his face was full of sarcasm, "Do you think I won't kill you this way?" What a step to retreat into advance! Guilty of petitioning? Sin deserves death! So why didn't there be any corpses on the battlefield in Linhuai? Can you kneel in front of me so well and plead guilty?! ”
"Lord, I'll wait, I'll wait!" Lu Meng was simply ashamed, Sun Ce's words were too hurtful to his self-esteem, the generals had already done a good job of horse leather shrouds, but they did run away, and Lu Meng himself felt faceless to face Sun Ce.
"The lord is right, I have no face to see the lord anymore," Lu Meng Mengde stood up and suddenly pulled out a long sword from the waist of the guard on the side!
"Protect the lord! "As soon as he saw Lu Meng pull out his long sword, Sun Ce's personal guards on the side hurriedly stepped forward, and they also drew their battle knives and long swords looked at Lu Meng vigilantly.
"Get out of the way!" Sun Ce yelled. His face was gloomy, and he Sun Ce was a martial artist at the peak of God Refining. If someone assassinated Sun Ce, Sun Ce himself couldn't stop it, and it was useless to ask for these personal guards. "I want to see what he Lu Meng wants!"
"Why are you still alive, it's better to be dead!" Lu Meng smiled sadly, and immediately picked up the long sword and slashed towards his neck.
"General Lu!" Zhou Yu and Ling Chao were all shocked, they didn't expect Lu Meng to be like this.
"I want to die! You have to ask me about this lord, too! Sun Ce snorted coldly, and the long sword in his hand was thrown out directly, hitting Lu Meng's long sword directly, knocking the long sword to the ground.
"Lord, lord! If you want to kill, please kill me Ling Chao! Ling Chao knelt down in front of Sun Ce.
"Death is simply too cheap for you! I said before1, even if you are defeated, then you have to help me bring Zhongmou back, how did you think that you finally came back by yourself! ”
"Lord, you can't blame General Lu Meng for this, these are all second sons!"
"Ling Chao, don't say it!" Lu Meng's face suddenly changed drastically, and he organized against Ling Chao on the side.
"If the general doesn't say anything more, you'll die!" Ling Chao could usually listen to Lu Meng, but now he didn't want to listen to it, because if he didn't say it, Lu Meng would definitely die.
"Humph! Keep talking! Sun Ce looked at the two of them coldly, and said to the two, "I want to see what can stop you from dying!" ”
"Lord, it's not the fault of the general and me, but the second son, after the second son went out of Jiangdong, he didn't want to snatch the military power all the time, the lord you let us command 20,000 Jiangdong elites, but just out of Jiangdong, the second son sent henchmen to be planted in the army, before Linhuai, the general and I lost a game, but only lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses, but the second son because of my equal defeat, and even directly killed the general to snatch the military power, when the battle was held, the second son did not discuss with us at all, let me wait to defend the city, When we reacted, the second prince himself took all the soldiers and horses to fight a decisive battle with Linhuai! The whole army of the second prince was scattered, and it was decided by the enemy general in a battle, and the enemy's main force was not damaged at all, but there were only thousands of old, weak, sick and disabled left in my Linhuai, how could I fight, and how could I protect the second son?! Ling Chao said angrily, and he didn't hide it all at all.
"Ling Chao you!" Lu Meng didn't know how to say Ling Chao.
"Is that true?!" Sun Ce's gaze condensed, and he asked Lu Meng and Ling Chao.
Looking at Sun Ce's gaze, Lu Meng could only step forward and say, "Tell the lord, what Ling Chao said is true!" ”
"Hmm!" Sun Ce's gaze was completely calm, snatching the power of the army! This is a taboo in the army, even Sun Ce knows that his younger brother's ambition is not small and he has great ambitions, but Sun Ce has always confused himself, and even this time he went to war, Sun Quan asked for war, Zhou Yu did everything possible to stop it, but Sun Ce still let his younger brother go on the expedition, and even gave elite soldiers and horses, this is brotherly love, and he has silently let his younger brother go to show his ambitions.
But this younger brother's appearance is really bad, if you take Linhuai, it's fine. Lu Meng and Ling Chao, you can give them an excuse to come back. But you shouldn't have driven Lu Meng and Ling Chao away before you won. Now the big defeat has even captured people!
Sun Ce's headache was extremely intense, and he touched his forehead in pain.
"Lord, lord, what's wrong with you!" Zhou Yu on the side hurriedly stepped forward to help Sun Ce.
"It's okay, it's okay!" Sun Ce was about to lose his footing.
"Back to my lord! After Meng retreated and defeated, he collected the remnants of the soldiers, got a message from these soldiers and horses, and asked the lord to take a look~" Lu Meng took out a letter sent by Yangzhou.
Sun Ce opened it directly. As soon as he saw the content of the letter, he immediately jumped up, "Wan Jin, Wan Jin, Liu Mang Liu Hanyang, why don't you grab it!" ”
What is written on the letter is Liu Mang's order to Yangzhou, 10,000 gold to exchange for the second prince of Jiangdong.
"Hiss!" The people on the side also gasped, 10,000 gold, Jiangdong's military expenditure for several years is not so much, even the largest family in Jiangdong is difficult to come up with.
"Lord, the second son must be saved!" Zhou Yu, who was on the side, stepped forward and hugged his fist at Sun Ce and said.
Save? Of course you have to save! This is his younger brother Sun Ce, no matter how bad it is. It was also his own brother, although Sun Ce was cruel to the enemy. But he treats his family to the extreme, and he is not a unrighteous person like Sun Quan.
"10,000 gold, how can I get it?!" Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu with a wry smile, 10,000 gold, even if he Sun Ce reduced his food and clothing, he didn't have such money, if he could have taken it a year ago, but the consumption in the army in this year was too huge, and he lost tens of thousands of gold in the two stops with Liu Mang, 170,000 soldiers and horses, and the war with Jiangxia was also full of money, where did he have extra money in Jiangdong? Gritted his teeth, "Gong Jin, let the captain stop building the latest warship!" All of them have been converted into merchant ships! ”
"Lord, this, this?!" Zhou Yu was really stunned, the warship changed to a merchant ship? "My lord, this must not be!" Zhou Yu is in a hurry, this batch of warships is a new warship to be replaced by Jiangdong next year, and it is also going to compete with Jiangxia, and it is an important part of Sun Ce's march into the world. Because once the fight starts again, Jingzhou will be able to change ships with deep pockets, and they will have no ships available in Jiangdong.
"What else can I do?! Let me watch Zhong Mou die?! Sun Ce is also helpless, he is a prince, and he is also an elder brother, after his father died, it was he Sun Ce who carried the great cause of the entire Sun family, it can be said that he is both an elder brother and a father, and treats his younger brothers and sisters, Sun Ce can say that he can give everything he can.
My sister doesn't like red makeup and loves arms, Sun Ce invited a thug woman to his sister and let them play female soldiers to accompany his sister, the second brother Sun Quan has great ambitions and ambitions, if it were other princes, he would have extinguished the fire of ambition in the fire, and he would definitely not let his younger brother survive, just like Yuan Shao's sons, where is the slightest brotherly feeling, one or two can't wait for each other to die well, so that they can be happy.
Sun Ce is not that kind of person, his younger brother is ambitious, he knows that this may be a bad omen, and may even endanger his position, but he still let Sun Quan go on the expedition, giving Sun Quan enough soldiers and horses in the hope that Sun Quan can make a career outside.
"Lord?!" If Zhou Yu is asked to tell the truth, then Zhou Yu is eager for Sun Quan to die, Liu Mang killed Sun Quan This is what Zhou Yu likes to see very much, Sun Quan is not dead, Jiangdong is uneasy, this second son is not a person who can endure loneliness at all, this person is extremely dangerous, because Sun Quan actually recruited himself, a second son recruited wise men to make friends with scholars, what is such a person thinking.
Zhou Yu reminded Sun Ce more than once, but Sun Ce repeatedly either avoided it, or diverted the topic, and did not give Zhou Yu a chance to say more at all, Zhou Yu's reminder Sun Ce did not listen at all, in fact, even if he listened, Sun Ce would not do that.
This lord is the little overlord of Jiangdong, but who knows that this person is still an amorous person! He has kept such an ambitious younger brother, can't he Sun Ce hear it from Lu Meng's words! Sun Ce wants to be self-reliant, and even replace Sun Ce.
Zhou Yu shook his head, he really didn't want to save Sun Quan, but seeing his lord like this, he wanted to give up his great cause and go to rescue his younger brother, Zhou Yu could only come forward with a wry smile and hugged Sun Ce and said, "Lord, it's not that there is no way, the warship must be built!" "With a warship, they can display their ambitions.
"Gong Jin, Gong Jin, I know that you have a way, you have a way!" Sun Ce looked at Zhou Yu with a happy face.
Lord, I hope what I did today is really worth it, Zhou Yu sighed bitterly, and still said his own method, "Lord, we don't have any money, but Jiangdong has it!" “
"Huh?!" Sun Ce was stunned for a moment, what do you mean that we have no money, but Jiangdong has it, he, Sun Ce, is not the master of Jiangdong.
"Gongjin, what do you mean?!" Sun Ce is not a fool, he heard Zhou Yu's words, he was stunned for a moment and then reacted, the rich people in Jiangdong are not him Sun Ce, not those rich businessmen, but the scholars of Jiangdong. They're the richest people.
"Are they willing?!" Ten thousand gold, this is not a small number, Sun Ce hesitated, will this group of scholars who can only greedily pursue profits agree?
"Hehe, they can't help but be unwilling, the defeat of this war is half the credit of these people! If they don't want to, then your lord, reward your deeds. Zhou Yu's face also turned cold, Sun Ce gave Sun Quan only 20,000 elite soldiers and horses, but in the end, there were 50,000 soldiers and horses, and the remaining 30,000 soldiers and horses were contributed by those warriors, as well as those grains and grass! If they don't want to, then settle accounts with them! Instigating the second son to go on the expedition, this crime is not small, and the right to seize the army can also be thrown on them, anyway, if Sun Ce himself stops the warship, the great cause will be slim, and naturally he is not afraid of offending this group of scholars!
