Chapter 294: Sun Ce's Resolution, Going Down to Jiangdong
They took the waterway this time, and when they went south to Jiangdong, they had to go down the river to Hefei first, and then pass through Huaiyin and Dongyang County, and after arriving in Gaoyou, they turned around and drove to Guangling and arrived in Jiangdong!
Speaking of which, Xi Yu has always felt that the burning of the Chibi camp was a joke.
After all, if you come from the waterway, if you want to enter Jianye, you will pass through Liu Bei's camp, and only when you break through his defense line can you have a chance.
But such a thing is no less than a fantasy in the current situation······
Jianye.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty 17 years after Jian'an, Sun Quan built a city on the stone mountain at the former site of Jinlingyi, named Stone City, as a place for garrisons and grain storage, and changed the tomb to Jianye, meaning "the great cause of establishing the emperor".
It is said that two years ago, this place was not called Jianye, but Moling.
The reason why Sun Quan changed this place to Jianye, and moved the capital here, moved his power center to Moling, is an excellent feng shui treasure land!
In the thirteenth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang sent an envoy to Sun Wu on the eve of the Battle of Chibi. ”
Later, Liu Bei came to visit Sun Quan many times, and when he passed through Moling, he would repeatedly persuade Sun Quan to settle here.
In the seventeenth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Quan, who listened to the persuasion, saw that the feng shui of this place was indeed unsurpassed, and Zhang Hong, a famous minister of Wu, thought that there was a son of heaven in this place, and persuaded his lord to set the capital here, so he changed Moling to Jianye.
And on the basis of Jinlingyi, the city was repaired, "with the storage of military rations and equipment", and later generations also called it the stone city, which shows how famous this place is.
Stone City is near the river to control Huai, relying on danger, and is the river defense fortress and city defense stronghold of the Dongwu Navy Army.
It stands across the water, dozens of miles around, with Zi and Luocheng double cities, prosperous business, and the grand occasion is very.
Since it has become the largest power center in Soochow, the gathering here is naturally the most outstanding and top existence in the entire Soochow, especially those young and brave people.
With Danyang as loyalty, most of the young people in the area from Wanling to Xuancheng to Yongping are chivalrous and righteous, and it is best to fight injustice on weekdays, rob the rich and help the poor.
Wandering back and forth in the entire Soochow area, although eating and sleeping in the open, but chic and wanton, living a good and unhappy life.
It is said that there are indeed many people who practice martial arts in Jiangdong.
The Confucianism and even Confucianism here may be far inferior to the talents in the hinterland of the Central Plains, and the learning atmosphere is strong, but the martial arts are not necessarily.
This is because there were not a few people who served as strategists and guests under the princes' doors back then, and most of them were martial artists, so the number of dead soldiers was naturally not small.
In addition, the world at that time was also chaotic, in order to live better, even if it was a better death, those who chose to become dead soldiers would choose to die desperately to bring back some benefits for the lord.
After a long time, there are naturally many people who practice martial arts.
Among them, there are many strong martial artists.
Now, it is very rare for them to gather in one place - Jianye.
Of course, in addition to them, since Soochow got Xiyu's strategy of running a school in Qingxu and Xu, he also began to gradually develop Confucianism and even various other subjects and skills.
A few years have passed, and today's Jiangdong is also considered to be a prosperous and prosperous culture, and the economy is running at a high speed, although it is not as good as the Qingxu two places on the other side of the river, but compared to the whole world, it is also quite a rich place.
Although it is said that in the first two years, he took a risk and transferred all his power to Jianye, and was quite dangerously close to Xuzhou in a strategic position, but because there is a river in the middle, it is protected by a pure natural barrier.
Jiangdong Jiangdong naturally refers to the east of the Yangtze River, of course, it can also be called Jiangzuo, because the Yangtze River goes from Jiujiang to Wanjiang, that is, from the southwest to the northeast.
Later, for the sake of convenience and memorization, everyone collectively referred to the east of the Yangtze River as Jiangdong.
A single river separates two regions, and two different local governments are also created.
The Jiangdong area is dominated by the two brothers Sun Quan and Sun Ce, while the Qingxu area is dominated by Xiyu.
The territory occupied by the two sides is basically similar, and there are many brave and skilled warriors under their hands, and even the total number of soldiers and soldiers between each other must not be too different.
If these two can establish a good and stable mutual aid relationship, and help each other in the future, there will be no one in the world who can do it!
But what can I do······
In the hinterland of Jianye, in the hall of the government office, as a person hurriedly walked, the squeaky wooden floor made a loud sound.
Lu Su frowned, and he missed the days when he was a guest in Xiapi more and more in his heart.
After beating him and returning to Jiangdong, he told Sun Ce and the two brothers everything he had seen and heard since he went to the north, and made it clear what the other party said when he refused to be the great Sima.
At the same time, he also took out the seal given by Xi Yu about the canonization of Wu Hou.
Looking at the seal on the table, and then looking at his crippled legs, Sun Ce's heart was inexplicably a little uncomfortable.
For some reason, he always felt that Xi Yu was joking with Fengwen, and even laughed at and looked down on himself.
is just a cripple, and he dares to think about the position of the Great Sima? It's just wishful thinking!
Under the coercion of such thoughts, Sun Ce had no way not to be sad.
It's just that his heart is more worried and scared than sad.
To this day, he no longer wants to use his in-laws to form an alliance.
But······
If this marriage is really canceled, I am afraid that this short quiet and peaceful day will come to an end.
The north will definitely use troops in Jiangdong, and at the same time, the life in the territory that had only been peaceful for a few years, and after a slight improvement in recuperation, as well as many commodities and the way of learning and doing business obtained from Xiyu, will no longer exist.
In other words, in the past two years, there has been no shortage of talents in Jiangdong, and they ······ Do you really want to ruin this hard-won peace and abundance?
Obviously, Sun Ce didn't want to go to war without a foolproof solution.
"Zijing, come closer."
Sun Ce supported his body with his hands and leaned in front of the collapse.
In the blink of an eye, a few years have passed, and he has begun to age rapidly after losing his legs, and now his temples have long been gray, and his face is full of wrinkles.
I don't know if he has been worried too much in recent years, making him look far older than his peers.
Back then, he was a handsome son in the entire Jiangdong who could not be beaten, and his heroic spirit was unparalleled.
Of course, at that time, he was high-spirited, bold, decisive and ruthless, as if the overlord of Chu was alive, and was respected as the "Tiger of Jiangdong"!
This is no joke.
You must know that in the past few years, Jiangdong was far less peaceful than it is now, surrounded by strong enemies outside, and each of them went their own way internally, and there were many people vying for power.
If it weren't for Sun Ce relying on his own strength to overwhelm everyone, relying on Sun Quan alone, Jiang Dongwan would not be in today's situation.
In other words, compared with Sun Quan, who began to balance Jiangdong's many strengths at the age of eighteen, even Sun Ce, who only has one leg, is doing more about Jianye and the great cause of Jiandong Wu!
The two brothers have different division of labor, but they both have a heart to achieve hegemony.
Moving the capital to Moling and changing it to Jianye, the thoughts of the two brothers are about to come out.
"My lord, I don't know······ Your choice is ······"
Lu Su walked in quickly, saluted respectfully and solemnly, and stood quietly aside.
"What to choose?"
Sun Ce didn't even look at him, but with the help of the attendants around him, he slowly sat into the wheelchair.
It is said that this wheelchair is also stamped with the unique seal of someone's money bank.
Although there is no way to determine whether this wheelchair is the meaning of Xi Yu or not, it is indeed that he bought it from the merchants of Qingxu Erdi.
With it, Sun Ce is indeed a lot more convenient.
"Zijing, I don't know what you think about the word righteousness?"
It wasn't until he sat down on the chair and straightened his clothes that Sun Ce suddenly asked.
Lu Su was a little dazed, he didn't know what the meaning of the lord's question was, but he still thought about it for a while, and then said seriously: "My subordinates think that righteousness can be divided into big and small, and in terms of righteousness, it is for the sake of the common people in the world and for stability." ”
"In terms of small righteousness, it is just a simple friendship between the two sides, with the humble opinion of subordinates, when everything is contrary to the great righteousness and the small righteousness, when the great righteousness is the first and the small righteousness is sacrificed, this is the right way!"
The speaker was unintentional, the listener was intentional, Lu Su was originally a self-opinion, but it made Sun Ce's face change.
With a dark face, he said in a low voice: "It's just nonsense! ”
"My subordinates are talking nonsense, and I ask the lord to forgive me—"
Lu Su hurriedly knelt on the ground, wanting to ask for mercy, since the lord lost a leg, his temperament has become more and more uncertain, making people unpredictable.
"Yes······ And it's not for nothing! ”
Sun Ce didn't give him a chance to finish, but sneered and continued: "So, Zijing seems to be very optimistic about the show? Compare him with the righteousness of the world? ”
"What? Do you think he can win the world of the Han Dynasty and become the co-master of heaven and earth? ”
"The subordinates don't dare!"
Lu Su's head was lowered, almost pressed against the plank.
To be honest, he really thought about it in his heart.
Not to mention anything else, he himself is a businessman, and even if he doesn't understand business, he knows a little more than ordinary people since he was a child.
In addition, as a strategist, he has unique insights into the handling of contacts and things, as well as strategies and views.
Therefore, the opportunity to go to the north alone was enough for him to see many problems clearly.
"Why don't you dare? Zijing, you have been serving by my side for almost ten years, and I have long regarded you as my own family, and I know you very well, and I know very well whether you have other ideas. ”
"It's just ······ I'd like to hear what you think. ”
Sun Ce raised his eyes to look at Lu Su, his eyes were full of coldness.
"You say, it's better for me to send someone to assassinate Xi Yu, or to watch him marry his little sister with joy?"
Or ······ Let him also see how heroic the young talents in my Jiangdong are? ”
That being said, he actually had a decision in his heart.
In fact, as early as when he heard that Xi Yu had killed Lu Bu, he was bent on fighting with him.
After all, at that time, Xi Yu was not a military general, but a world-famous weak strategist.
Because he saved countless homeless people, he was highly respected by the people of the world.
But such a Confucian civil official was able to become famous in a battle when he fought against Lu Bu, and became the famous first hero in the army of Cao Wei in the north!
It was his desire to be able to fight such a mythical man.
But unfortunately, the years have passed, time flies, and he has become a cripple, living between these square inches, but the other party has already become Sheng Guogong under one person and above tens of thousands of people!
What a mistake······
"This ······"
The whole body trembled when asked, and as soon as Lu Su raised his head, he saw the other party's cold eyes staring at him intently, and decisively lowered his head again.
How dare he answer this question?
Pressing the future of the entire Jiangdong on himself, the lord can't help but think too highly of himself!
But if you want him to see it, the best way to solve it is naturally not to marry the little sister of the Sun family happily.
This can be regarded as a surrender to Xi Yu, coupled with the relationship between in-laws, it is not difficult to join the Son of Heaven.
It's just ······ In this way, it is equivalent to giving up the entire Jiangdong to others and bowing down to Xiyu.
In fact, Jiangdong is much different from Qingxu in terms of land area and population.
But he just felt that if the two sides had contradictions and went to the point of going to war, then he would definitely lose.
For some reason, he just felt that Xi Yu was an "enemy" that they could hardly reach in Jiangdong's life······
"Zijing, you might as well tell me the truth, what is your choice in this matter?"
This son, Sun Ce's face was already extremely ugly, and he stared at the back of Lu Su's head with burning eyes, quite a posture of not giving up if he didn't reach his goal.
Lu Su was in a dilemma, crying and laughing, so he straightened up and said seriously and humbly: "Lord, this matter is not something that can be decided by subordinates, but there is one thing, no matter what the lord chooses, my son Jing will obey his words and swear to accompany him to the death!" ”
"In that case."
Sun Ce took a long breath, looked at Lu Su deeply, and after making sure that he would not make any remarks on this matter, he muttered: "Then it's up to me to decide!" ”
"I intend to return to Emperor Han, assist Xi Yu to win the world, and establish great achievements! Coupled with the relationship between in-laws, it can forever shake Jiangdong and become a great country of princes, or a clan family! ”
"Then ······"
Speaking of this, he suddenly straightened up, his eyes firm: "There are capable people in the seven counties of Jiangdong who can get it, and I will never give it to others!" ”
In Koto, there are 5 million people, not to mention, and the population has increased dramatically every year due to the lack of wars and the development of stability and prosperity.
Under the leadership of the Sun family, the local people live and work in peace and contentment, live a rich and beautiful life, and respect the hegemony of the Sun family.
It's just that in addition to the Jiangdong Sun family, the names of military generals such as Zhang Liao and Chen Deng are also quite loud.
Zhang Liaozhi's ability does not need to be said, but Chen Deng is also unexpected.
He was originally sent to the south by Xi Yu, and was responsible for managing and guarding the industry, commerce, and agriculture in the south······ of the Governor.
In addition, he was also responsible for the statistics of the war report and the planning of the battle situation, and since he came here for a few years, he has defeated the local mountain bandits, robbers, and water bandits more than dozens of times, making the local bandits change color when they hear his name.
In the territory of Jiangdong, who has not heard of the name of Yuanlong?
But even if these two people are there, Sun Ce does not intend to surrender to Xi Yu easily, let alone let the people in the territory feel that he is in order to surrender to Xi Yu, so he will give the entire Jiangdong to others.
As for the little sister······ Even if you really marry Xi Yu, it's only because of mutual affection, not some unilateral peace!
"You······ Are you sure? ”
Lu Su's face was a little ugly.
Speaking of which, he didn't stay in Xuzhou for a long time, but he gained a lot of knowledge and made a lot of friends.
And among them, the most impressive thing for him is the drama that he has only seen less than three sides in formal occasions.
It's not because Xuzhou is the territory of Xiyu, so it has a special filter for it.
It's that he does have the strength, so that people can treat him differently and surrender happily.
If nothing else, let's just mention the banquet that night.
It was just a few words, and the whole banquet was silent, and he didn't even dare to look up at the other party when he was so far away, which shows how much of a sense of deterrence his person has.
It's not easy to talk about an existence like this.
Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me perish.
If the lord goes to receive Xi Yu according to the current idea, he is afraid that if one is not good, it will collapse.
What if the drama gets angry? Will he send a large army to attack Koto?
I guess so······
"What are you afraid of? I'm not without heroic soldiers in Jiangdong? With the development of school education in recent years, the literati have also shown a blowout development, and they may not be weaker than him! ”
"Of course, if he can fight the Confucianism with his tongue and his military ability, so that the young talents in the entire Jiangdong territory will be defeated and surrendered, I will ······ What if they did submit to him? ”
After saying the last sentence, Sun Ce fell backwards with all the weight of his body, leaned on the wheelchair, raised his head and slowly closed his eyes.
He didn't know what the strength of the others in Jiangdong was, but since he broke his leg and could no longer go to the battlefield, he put all his strength training on his arms.
If Xi Yu wants to win himself, it's not that simple!
······
In the blink of an eye, the end of the month is approaching.
The building boat that Xi Yu was riding went down the river from the canal and gathered among a large number of merchant ship merchants, which was quite conspicuous.
On both sides of the riverbank, there are many people who follow along the way, kneeling and worshipping from time to time.
Among them, the older old woman and Lao Suo insisted on following on crutches with tears in their eyes, and they were holding their grandchildren behind them, and the two sides looked at the boat from time to time and said something.
Until he was about to leave the territory of Xuzhou, those cries became louder and louder, and they converged into one, causing Xi Yu to frown.
He immediately led the casual minister of civil and military affairs to the fourth floor deck to investigate the situation.
"Dian Wei, what are you doing on a dog's day? Xuzhou is your fiefdom, and you don't know that there are people who have been wronged so far? Or is it because of you that they have wronged? ”
"This ······ How is this possible? I'm not a man of flesh and fish! ”
Dian Wei stiffened his neck, but he didn't dare to choke with the play.
"I'm the only one who opens a warehouse to release grain and benefit the people in the township······ The only hobby is playing mahjong with the same people.。 ”
"Isn't it just to win everything! Why are they—"
"What the hell are you playing mahjong with the people in the fiefdom?"
