Chapter 13: The Man Behind the Scenes

"It's not something that can be done in a day or two...... Zhu Xin complained weakly.

"It's okay, I can wait!" When Sun Ce heard this, his ears shook violently a few times, and then he said excitedly. It's a pity that it's not a beast's ear, and it feels a lot worse.

"That's good...... Lu Fan patted Zhu Xin on the shoulder, "There is a fiancΓ©e who doesn't dislike you no matter how fat you are." ”

"To put it another way." Zhu Xin complained, "I will dislike ...... when I lose weight."

"Excuse me, how can you think that?" Sun Ce came to him, "Even if you lose weight...... I won't dislike you either! After all, the premise of liking must be you first...... Big deal, I'll help you get fat again. ”

Zhu Xin smiled and didn't speak. As for Zu Lang, who has not spoken, he is silently eating melons there, which tastes like dog food.

"Alright, now that we've finished breakfast, it's almost time to go." Sun He clapped his hands. Before I knew it, breakfast had been wiped out, "Speaking of which, the taste of today's breakfast is really speechless!" ”

"Because I cooked your portion." Zhu Xin replied.

"Just because of the quality of these three meals, it is really good to have a 'chef' in the army." Lu Fan sighed that this journey south was basically a passing place, when was it so extravagant.

Zu Lang also nodded silently, he has been a sect marshal for a few years, but he really hasn't enjoyed the food so much.

What is rare, it is rare that the whole wheat steamed bun is pickled and jerky, and there is a feeling of being upscale. After eating this breakfast, it is estimated that ordinary whole wheat steamed buns can no longer be swallowed.

At six o'clock in the morning, it should be said that it was more than half of the hour, and the army set off.

Relying on Sun Ce's skill of 'soldier and god speed', it took a little more than two hours to arrive at Zongyangdu. Zhu Xin took the lead in crossing the river, after all, according to the predetermined plan, after crossing the river, he would start preparing lunch, and at the same time, after lunch, he would have to rest for half an hour.

It's only about eleven o'clock, less than twelve o'clock. However, in this era, eleven o'clock is called noon. Three o'clock in the afternoon is the peak time of the day, which is actually 11:45 p.m.

As a traverser, Zhu Xin has always felt that the sun should be at its most intense between one and three o'clock in the afternoon. The sunlight before that, in fact, was just like that, and it was bearable.

Sun Ce and others apparently think so, and it is said that under normal circumstances, eleven to one o'clock is used as a lunch time, and then one to two o'clock as a lunch break. They were drawn after two o'clock and were not stationed until about five o'clock in the afternoon.

Normally, they do not camp on the march and do not camp until they reach their destination. The general army of this world also follows this principle.

The team led by the professional is different, especially the 'general' is the army led by the profession. With the blessing of 'Soldier Divine Speed', as long as you don't go to the aid or ask to arrive at a certain destination quickly, most of them will make your military life more comfortable.

After all, a large part of the professionals in this world are women. Naturally, most of the generals are women. Even a war fanatic like Sun Ce tries to be better to himself in daily life.

"Is it really good to be comfortable?" Zu Lang asked, seeing that Zhu Xin began to command the Huotou Army to start burying the pot and cooking, she looked at Sun Ce and asked. This march is too comfortable, it feels like it's not a march, it's an outing.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter......" Sun Ce said with a smile, anyway, there is as much time as there is.

"After all, we are only a wandering army at the moment, we don't have any power, we don't have any territory, we can go wherever we go." Lu Fan directly told the truth.

Sun Jian is out of office, and he has nothing to do with his children. As for Sun Jian's Wucheng Hou, she also gave it to her fourth brother Sun Kuang, who did not show filial piety and integrity, nor did she get a certain official canonized by the imperial court, so she was a white body in the final analysis.

".................." Zu Lang suddenly suffered a critical blow, and thought that he would meet the master, but he didn't expect that he was actually a white body, and he returned her touch!

"Don't worry, we will temporarily defect to Yuan Shu next, she had the intention of recruiting me at the beginning." Sun Ce said with a smile, "After a period of time under her command, find an opportunity to lay down a piece of land, and then go out independently!" ”

"Then why don't you go and land now?" Zulang didn't understand.

"Because Sun Ce is a white-bodied ......," Zhu Xin reminded, "Now the Emperor of the Han Dynasty is still there, and he is still nominally a courtier of the Han Dynasty in various places." If you attack a place without a valid reason, it will be considered a rebellion. The princes are asking for Dong, you should know, right? ”

Zu Lang also reacted when he heard this, it turned out that he wanted to divide one side, but there were still so many restrictions?

"So we have to defect to Yuan Shu first, with the help of his name as a general, and lay down a piece of territory, and then with the name of a general or Taishou, we can continue to expand, this is the rule of the game." Lu Fan explained.

"Do you know who paid a lot of money to buy the master's head?" Zu Lang said casually.

"Those who can know me, and can still spend a lot of money to buy my head, out of Yuan Shu, it is estimated that there will be no second one." Sun Ce said with interest, obviously expecting this.

Scare? Zu Lang was an assassin sent by Yuan Shu to attack and kill Sun Ce? It's the first time I've heard of this kind of thing!

Zhu Xin had an incredulous expression, after all, this history is generally not expected to be paid attention to. Wait, one or two already know? I don't know the result?!

"You know, and go to her?" Zu Lang looked at Sun Ce in some surprise.

"She's going to send someone to assassinate me, which means she really values me and thinks I'm going to be a threat. So if I defected to her, it would naturally be easier for me to gain her attention and entrust me with important tasks. Sun Ce said slowly.

"There are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests." Zhu Xin joked, "Most of those who play politics are dirty people who put interests first, and as long as the interests are sufficient, they can even overturn what they have said." ”

Yuan Shu, who didn't give Sun Ce independence in life or death, didn't he obediently give the green light after receiving the jade seal of the country? Of course, I felt that Sun Ce couldn't beat Liu Xuan, and Xu Gong and Wang Lang were also the reasons.

There is a certain probability that he intends to wait for Sun Ce to escape back in embarrassment after defeat, and then officially subdue him. It's just that I didn't expect others to soar into the sky and quickly occupy the counties of Jiangdong.

"Why, I think Your Excellency means something?" Lu Fan asked with a smile, she always felt that Zhu Xin was targeting herself.

"I didn't deliberately sit in the right seat!" Zhu Xin replied casually, "No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" ”

"I don't understand!" Zu Lang only felt that his mind was messy, and after listening to the truth for a long time, his brain was a mess.

"Peace of mind." Sun He looked at Zu Lang, "This kind of thing, just leave it to Bo Fu and the military advisor for a headache!" ”

"Oh!" Zu Lang suddenly had a look of sudden realization, he said it earlier, wouldn't it be good!

…………………… Dividing line ..............................

World Facts:

Sun Ce is currently white, and under the premise that there is no chaos in the order of the Han Dynasty, attacking the city at this time is a rebellion. As a result, the profession may change and become a 'thief' or 'commander'. The most painful thing is that there are two professional skills that will be whitewashed.

In fact, Sun Ce was under the command of Yuan Shu, and he successively had an official body, but it was not Yuan Shu who really gave him an official body, but Ma Riyan.
