I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 276 Each has its own layout
Changsha City, in the prefect's mansion.

Since Sun Jian returned to Changsha, he has not appeared in front of all the officials in the county.

He declared to the outside world that he was seriously ill and that it was difficult to see people.

Sun Jian handed over the government affairs of the county to his brother-in-law Wu Jing, and the general affairs to Huang Gai from Lingling.

It wasn't until his capable general Zhu Zhi, Cong Zisun Ben, and clan descendant Sun He came back together that Sun Jian made an exception to see him.

At that time, the southern part of Jingzhou was not peaceful. After the bandit Ou Xing was defeated by Sun Jian, at the beginning of this year, Ou Xing's vassals Zhou Chao, Su Ma, Guo Shi and others rebelled one after another, causing disaster to Changsha, Lingling, and Guizhou. Yangzhu County, but in Sun Jian's view, these scabies and leprosy diseases do not require him to go out in person.

So he handed over the authority to crusade against them to Zhu Zhi, and asked his two nephews to accompany him. With the help of this battle, he trained the two children's ability to use troops.

In terms of fighting, the Sun family has a heritage. In each generation, there are a few who are particularly capable of fighting and are particularly good at using soldiers.

As for Sun Ben and Sun He, they gradually began to show their extraordinary talents in this area.

In this battle, both Sun Ben and Sun He fought the enemy bravely, took the lead and beheaded many people, and Sun He himself even beheaded the leader of the bandit, Zhou Dynasty.

Originally, they returned home full of joy, but when they heard the news that Sun Jian was seriously ill, everyone panicked.

When they arrived in Changsha, Zhu Zhi led the two sons of the Sun family to visit Sun Jian immediately.

But who would have thought that when he arrived at Sun Jian's residence, he would see Sun Jian in full attire, holding an ancient ingot knife in the courtyard, tossing and turning, practicing martial arts.

The three of them were stunned when they saw this.

Sun Jian's complexion was rosy, his body was dripping with sweat, and he looked full of energy. How could he be seriously ill?
It seemed that someone had entered the yard, so Sun Jian turned around, jumped to the knife stand, reached out and took the scabbard in his hand, and then put the ancient ingot knife into the sheath like a cloud and flowing water.

With a wave of his hand, he threw the ancient ingot knife to the side, and an attendant immediately stepped forward to follow him.

Sun Jian smiled and glanced back and forth at the three men who had returned from the battle, and said: "I have read your battle list, you have made outstanding achievements, and you have lived up to my high expectations!"

Sun Ben stepped forward, looked at Sun Jian carefully for a while, and said, "Uncle, aren't you sick? How come..."

Sun Jian laughed loudly, he reached out to take the attendant and handed him a silk towel, wiped off his sweat, and said, "Let's go, let's talk in the room!"

Afterwards, several people entered the hall, Sun Jian gulped down a large pot of water, and then ordered his cronies to bring Yuan Shu's letter for Zhu Zhi, Sun Ben, Sun He and others to read.

In Yuan Shu's letter, there was no specific statement about the incident, but he only asked Sun Jian to withdraw his troops. However, he pointed out from the side that Yuan Shao gathered all the herdsmen to ask for the director, which was very selfish and violated the principles of human ethics, so it was not appropriate to help each other. Let Sun Jian think clearly.

After the three of them circulated it, Sun Jian looked at them and said, "What do you think of Yuan Gonglu's letter?"

Sun Bendao: "Uncle and Yuan Gonglu met each other through the introduction of Liu Jian during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. These years can be regarded as continuous contact. Yuan Gonglu did play some role in uncle's official career, but uncle is not The Yuan family is a former official, and the matter of Zhu Mushou seeking Dong is also for the sake of state affairs, so what does it have to do with his uncle whether he wants Dong or not? Why does uncle insist on listening to him!?"

Sun Jian laughed and didn't answer him, but turned to look at Sun He.

"Bo Hai, do you know why I listened to Yuan Shu and withdrew my troops back to Changsha?"

Sun He was calmer than Sun Ben, he said: "The Yuan family is famous all over the world, but now among the Yuan family, the only person who has a good relationship with uncle is Yuan Shu. Although Yuan Shao is very powerful, he doesn't know uncle , Offending Yuan Shu for Yuan Shao's sake is really not in line with my uncle's current interests."

"Well said."

Sun Jian said with satisfaction: "However, it still didn't hit the right point."

Afterwards, Sun Jian looked at Zhu Zhi: "Let's listen to your seniors' thoughts!"

Zhu Zhidao: "The reason why the lord retreated is because of two reasons. One is that Yuan Shu is also a man of fame and wealth. Now that the princes are asking for Dong, it is the time when the Yuan family gathers famous people from famous families and establishes their prestige. At this time, Yuan Shu He didn't take the initiative to charge up, but quit to beg for Dong... In my opinion, he must have held something against Yuan Shao in his hands! Before the matter is clear, it is reasonable for the governor to return to Jingzhou on the grounds of illness.

Sun Jian nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Sun He and Sun Ben and said, "Did you hear that? This is a serious word."

Sun Ben and Sun He hurriedly said to Zhu Zhi together: "Be taught!"

Sun Jian said again: "Besides, there is another reason. Although I was appointed in Changsha, my family members are all in Lujiang. I have met Yuan Gonglu several times, and I deeply feel that although he comes from a famous family, he is narrow-minded. , he is now the shepherd of North Yangzhou, and Lujiang is also under his command, if you make him unhappy, I'm afraid it will be bad for the people in our clan!"

Sun Ben hurriedly said, "Since that's the case, why don't you bring your mother, Ah Ce, and Ah Quan to Changsha?"

Sun Jian sighed: "It's not that I don't want to bring them here, it's just that according to the current situation, I haven't considered my way out yet. If I take Madam and Ce'er to Changsha at this time, we won't be here if we turn around. , Is it possible to let the youngest son of the female family follow me around?"

Sun Bendao: "Nowadays, the Mushous of the Kanto region are opposed to Dong Zhuo, and the world is in chaos. The Mushous of all places have the desire to stand on their own. The Han family will be in chaos. My uncle will take Changsha as his base and sit in Jingnan to watch the world's current situation!"

Sun Jian sighed and did not speak.

Zhu Zhi understood Sun Jian, he understood Sun Jian's true thoughts.

"Your Majesty still wants to go back to Yangzhou for development, doesn't it?"

Sun Jian nodded and said, "I'm from Wu County. If possible, I still want to go back to Wu County. After all, people are far from home..."

Zhu Zhi sighed and said: "No matter what the Great Han Dynasty becomes in the end, at least for now, the Great Han Dynasty is still dominated by the Liu family, and the three mutual law system is still in place. It may be very difficult to return to Wu County in the name of orthodoxy! From the point of view of my subordinates, now that the Ou Xing Rebellion has been put down, and the Fujun has gained a foothold in Changsha, why bother to return to Yangzhou?"

"Although Fujun is an official with two thousand stones, he is not a high-ranking family when it comes to family background. If he stays in Jingnan now, he has to rely on Yuan Shao. If he wants to return to Yangzhou, it is still unclear whether he can gain a foothold in Wujun. Alright, but you have to rely on Yuan Shu, it depends on how the envoy chooses!"

"Jingzhou, Yangzhou, Yuan Shao, Yuan Shu..."

Sun Jian murmured slowly, "Forget it, right now the princes of the Kanto region are fighting with Dong Zhuo, whether to stay in Jingzhou to follow Yuan Shao, or return to Yangzhou to follow Yuan Shu, it will not be too late to make a conclusion after seeing the situation!"

"Here!"

……

……

At the same time, Luoyang, Yuan Ji and Yuan Kui, as well as the Yuan family who stayed in Luoyang, were all imprisoned by Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo was furious when he heard that after the Suanzao Huimeng, a group of Mushou raised their own troops to attack Luoyang separately.

He first killed Zhou Yu and Wu Qiong, who had advised him and sent down a group of famous party officials to serve as officials in Xinjiang, to vent his anger.

On May [-]th of the third year of Chuping, Dong Zhuo dispatched a group of envoys headed by Han Rong to various pastoral offices in the Kanto region, intending to win over and divide the Kwantung Allied Forces, but the effect was not good.

At the same time, the coalition forces divided into three groups to threaten Luo Yang.

Wang Kuang, Zhang Yang, Zhu Jun and others stationed troops in Sanhe.

Cao Cao, who recruited soldiers in Danyang, met with Bao Xin, Liu Dai, Qiao Mao and others, trying to occupy Chenggao County.

On the Jing and Yu side, Yuan Shao and Kong Ni also organized soldiers to advance to Liang County, but there was no suitable leader.

After Yuan Shao arrived in Jingzhou, he also organized a group of famous and heroic figures in Jingzhou to support his army. Among these people, many were talented in military affairs, but their reputation was somewhat inferior.

Originally according to Yuan Shao's idea, it was to use the famous Sun Jian as the vanguard of the Jing and Yu armies to boost the morale of the three armies, but who would have thought that Sun Jian and Yuan Shu would suddenly be sick together, which made Yuan Shao really depressed.

In desperation, Yuan Shao could only use capable people among the sages in Jingzhou to open up the situation as pioneers.

Yuan Shao has a characteristic, that is, the people he targets usually look at their backgrounds first. Of course, it does not mean that Yuan Shao only pays attention to people with particularly noble backgrounds. It is one of his characteristics to select outstanding people from among them.

Therefore, in Jingzhou, he selected someone who could take the lead for him. He was Huang Zu, the father-in-law of the Jiangxia lineage among the local Huang clan!

As a big family in Jiangxia, at the same time, the Huang family is adjacent to the Yuan family in Yuzhou. Over the years, the Huang family and the Yuan family have also transferred a lot of benefits to each other, so Yuan Shao is still very relieved to appoint Huang Zu as the pioneer.

After the news was sent back to Luoyang, Dong Zhuo immediately ordered that the troops be divided into three groups to fight against the Allied forces.

Zhu Jun is a famous general in the world, so he should not be taken lightly. Dong Zhuo decided to deal with the coalition forces in the north himself.

As for the Suanzao Allied Forces, Dong Zhuo chose Hu Zhen and Lu Bu to lead his troops to fight.

As for the coalition forces in the south, they were the most powerful in history, with Sun Jian as the main combat force, and Dong Zhuo's most formidable opponent.

But now, the enemy in the south has been replaced by Huang Zu from Sun Jian.

And Huang Zu's opponent this time is Hua Xiong, the general of the Xiliang Army!
