Chapter 390: Listen to words and deeds, and observe their hearts
Tai Shi Ci bowed slightly, he did not rule out using such a means against Cao Cao, but in the face of a weak opponent like Chen Lan, if he still used a small strategy to win, it seemed that he was a little inferior.
Xiahoudun's rice fields belong to Juntun, and there are other grains and grasses to fill after being destroyed, while Quanjiao and Fuling should be people's fields, and once they are destroyed, they may be ruined, which is no different from the thieves in the troubled township.
Just when Tai Shi Ci was pondering, Sun Quan said seriously: "Ziyi is going to Huainan to be neighbors with Long Xiang and Zhang Liao, you have to treat the two of them differently, Long Xiang will hardly take the initiative to attack, but don't provoke because of his brother, and Cao Jun does have an advantage on land, if he is unlucky, he will quickly retreat to the city." ”
"Then the mission to Liyang"
"Just keep the status quo and keep the Chaohu waterway."
"Oh"
Tai Shici thought that Sun Quan would continue to attack Huainan, and as a front-line general, he would have many opportunities to make meritorious contributions, but he didn't expect that he would still be passive and unable to attack.
"I heard that Ziyi has a son? I don't know how old I am now? ”
Faced with Sun Quan's sudden question, Tai Shi Ci was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The dog Tai Shi Xiang, who has just turned fourteen years old, does not know the lord."
"Hehe, it turns out that Ling Lang is about to become an adult, I want to say that Liyang belongs to the front line after all, if Ziyi and his family are not at ease, he can settle his wife and children to the rear of Wu County"
Without waiting for Sun Quan to finish speaking, Tai Shici shook his head and refused: "That is too troublesome for the lord, the last general plans to take it with him, and sooner or later he can teach and supervise." ”
"Actually."
Zhang Zhao interrupted Sun Quan and said with a smile: "The general is thoughtful, you are skilled in bows and horses, and your martial arts are unparalleled, it is more appropriate to take Xiangzi with you than to place your family in the rear of Wu County."
"Thank you for your kindness."
Facing Tai Shi Ci's fist salutation, Zhang Zhao smiled and said: "My son is ten years older than Ling Lang, and he has a lot of experience in raising children. ”
Zhang Zhao took the opportunity to lead the topic to his children, and chatted with Tai Shici and Yu for a while, so that Sun Quan, who had no children, could not interject.
After a while, Sun Quan asked Yu to send Tai Shici to the other side to take office.
Sun Quan watched the two of them board the boat and cross the river, and immediately turned to stare at Zhang Zhao with a dark face, and asked in a deep voice: "I intend to settle Ziyi's family in Wu, and I will only be rewarded during the New Year's Festival, why did Zhang Gong interrupt me just now?" Still making decisions for me? ”
Zhang Zhao smiled bitterly and explained: "The lord's kindness, General Taishi may not be able to receive it, you settle his family in Wu, not only will he not be grateful, but it is also easy for him to misunderstand, thinking that the lord wants to take hostages."
"I didn't." Sun Quan hurriedly explained.
Zhang Zhao shook his head and said: "The lord's intentions, the old minister naturally knows, but General Taishi may not know, in the past, at the beginning of Brother Ling's surrender, he was left to his family to accompany him, if I didn't interrupt and stop it just now, General Taishi would inevitably misunderstand, which was extremely unfavorable to guarding Huainan." ”
"Am I being reckless?"
Sun Quan frowned, the reason why he said this was that during Sun He's tenure as the Taishou of Lujiang, his wife, children, and family members also stayed behind, and he didn't think too much about it.
Looking back on Zhang Zhao's words now, Sun He will not be suspicious of being a child of the clan, while Tai Shici is a general with a foreign surname, and he should be extremely disgusted with the 'hostage-taking'.
Zhang Zhao saw that Sun Quan had come to his senses, and smiled and comforted: "It is understandable that the lord is still young, but fortunately, the old minister stopped it in time just now, and General Taishi should not think much about it." ”
"No matter how much he thinks about it, for a talent like Ziyi, I should have something to remedy."
Sun Quan frowned and thought about it, and suddenly asked with an idea: "Taishi Xiangxu is fifteen years old, and I have already married a wife at that age, and I refer to my brother's daughter as his wife?" ”
Zhang Zhao swallowed his saliva after hearing this, and hurriedly reminded Sun Quan: "Tai Shixiang's age is enough, but Bo Fu's daughter is not yet ten years old, is this family matter too early?" ”
Sun Quan replied: "Although her age is not enough, she can be set first, so that Ziyi can know my sincerity." ”
Zhang Zhao shook his head and explained: "I know that the lord likes General Taishi, but you can't help being so impatient, doesn't the lord often go out to hunt?" Getting too close to the prey will scare away the opponent, and only by getting close slowly can you get your wish. ”
Sun Quan scratched his forehead, revealing a pensive expression.
"In a hurry?"
"Hmm." Zhang Zhao added: "It is said that this is a family matter of the lord, and I shouldn't have talked too much, but since General Bo Fu is not here, his daughter's marriage is such a big deal, should you ask Mrs. Wu?" ”
"Hehe, yes"
Sun Quan shook his head bitterly for a while, and said in his heart that he, the lord of Jiangdong, was too aggrieved, and there were people at home and outside the family who could take care of it, and he didn't know when he would be able to make his own decisions completely.
Seeing Tai Shici's warship crashing away, Sun Quan waved at Zhang Zhao: "What should be confessed is also explained, let's also board the ship and set off to Wu."
Zhang Zhao nodded and agreed: "It's okay, it's still early today, starting from Niuzhu at this time, you can rush to Wanling in the evening, Shubi (Sun Yi) has already gone to work for half a month, you can stop by to see him." ”
"It's not a good way to go to Wanling, the third brother has been in office for too short, and when he makes some achievements, it's not too late for me to go to inspect again, let the sailors work hard to shake the oar, and strive to rush to Yangxian for the night, if not, they will stay in Yangyang."
"Yui"
Seeing Sun Quan's refusal, Zhang Zhao hurriedly surrendered.
Sun Quan and Zhang Zhao returned to Wu County and did not wait for Yu to turn together, because Yu turned his own mission.
In addition to the official handover with the Liyang County Order, it is also necessary to calculate the daily expenses of this army, and he will send a batch of supplies after he returns.
In late July, the people of Liyang took advantage of the sunny weather to harvest rice, and in August, showers and strong winds took turns, and the ripe rice may rot in the fields.
Tai Shici completed the handover during this period, and he did not follow Sun Quan's instructions and directly went to fight Chen Lan's idea, but sent troops to help the people harvest rice, and sent scouts to the two counties to inquire about the situation.
The last time I met Sun Quan in Linjiang Pavilion, although Sun Quan showed Corporal Lixian, he couldn't help but compare himself with Sun Ce.
Sun Quan's martial arts are too far from Sun Ce, one of them is heroic and cheerful, and the other is introverted and has a city government, compared to Tai Shici, he prefers Sun Ce.
When Sun Ce dealt with Liu Xun, although he also used a trick to transfer his main force out of Anhui County, he also completed the siege with real swords and guns, unlike Sun Quan's small tricks.
Listen to their words, watch their deeds, and observe their hearts.
Can a childlike lord like Sun Quan really allow me to achieve my lofty ideals?
He stood on the edge of the rice paddy field and pondered, asking himself the question again.
Tai Shi Ci received a good family education from his mother, and he was greedy for vanity and betrayed the enemy, and he would never be able to do it.
Living like a salted fish, Tai Shi Ci is not reconciled.
