I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 555 Yuan Shu’s Life and Death
Inside Sun Jian's camp.

Sun Jian was currently in Zhou Tai's tent, carefully watching the doctors treating Zhou Tai's injuries.

When he was young, the doctor bandaged and cleaned Zhou Tai's wounds, then he cupped his hands to Sun Jian and said: "General, Zhou Sima's injury is no longer serious. He only needs to rest for two months to recover. It's just this period." At this time, Zhou Sima should not go to the battlefield again, nor should he bear heavy loads anymore, and he should not do too many activities on weekdays."

Sun Jian nodded arrogantly and said, "Thank you for your help."

Afterwards, the doctor went straight out of Zhou Tai's camp.

Zhou Tai forcibly propped up his body and said to Sun Jian: "General, don't listen to the doctor's nonsense. Tai's body is only a minor injury, which is not worth mentioning."

"General, please don't worry about Zhou Tai's injury. If there is a war, Zhou Tai is still willing to take the lead and be the general's vanguard to defeat the big-ear Liu thief."

Sun Jian strode up and pushed Zhou Tai down on the bed.

"Youping, I know your bravery and your loyalty to Mr. Yuan. It's just that at this time, you still need to take good care of your body and put yourself first."

"As for the big-eared thief, Sun can defeat him."

After hearing this, Zhou Tai hurriedly said: "General, Tai's injury is indeed not serious. General, please..."

"OK OK."

Sun Jian said in a tough tone: "Whether your injury is serious or not is decided by the doctor, not by you yourself. You are still young, so don't show off your heroism."

"Don't ruin your bright future just because of a moment of passion. You still have decades to serve Duke Yuan on the battlefield and fight to the death, so why should you care about it for a moment?"

Zhou Tai saw that Sun Jian was decisive and didn't have any tone of discussion, so he could only do this and let Sun Jian arrange it.

He heard Sun Jian say to him: "In the future, I will send someone to send you back to Nanyang, so that you can recuperate in Nanyang. After you recover from your injuries, I will still use you as the vanguard the next time I go on an expedition, and I will never regret it. How about that?" "

After hearing Sun Jian's promise to him, Zhou Tai felt relieved.

"That being the case, Tai is willing to obey the general's arrangements!"

……

……

When he was young, after Sun Jian walked out of Zhou Tai's camp, he saw his eldest son, Sun Ce, hurriedly came to Sun Jian and said happily: "Father, good news! Cao's army in Xiapi Kingdom has won a great victory!"

Sun Jian couldn't help but perked up after hearing this.

"When did the news come?"

Sun Ce said: "Just now, the scouts were still waiting for my father in the commander's tent. Why don't father go to the commander's tent quickly and hear how the war in Xia Pi is going?"

Sun Jian immediately said: "Of course I want to listen, hurry up! Lead the way!"

"promise!"

Then, they saw Sun Ce leading Sun Jian excitedly to the commander's tent, where the scouts were waiting.

Sun Jian pointed at the scout with great momentum.

"speak!"

The scout knew Sun Jian's style very well, and was not polite to Sun Jian. He simply and clearly described the battle that took place in Xiapi to Sun Jian.

"Hahahaha!"

After the scout finished speaking, Sun Jian laughed on the spot.

"God help me!"

"Tao Qian and Yuan Shu were defeated. The big-eared thief is unable to survive alone. Sooner or later he will be captured alive by me!"

After saying that, Sun Jian looked at Sun Ce who was standing aside: "Son, I will attack Liu Bei this time. For my father's sake, you will be the vanguard!"

Sun Ce has been following Sun Jian during this period, carefully studying Sun Jian's tactics and understanding his way of using troops. He quickly absorbed knowledge in various military fields like a sponge absorbing water, and grew rapidly.

However, Sun Jian had very strict requirements on Sun Ce. Although he always let him fight with the army, he never gave him a chance to express himself.

But today, Sun Jian finally let his son take on the important responsibility.

After hearing Sun Jian's appointment, Sun Ce hurriedly straightened his back and said, "I accept the order! I will definitely live up to the general's high expectations!"

Afterwards, Sun Jian looked back and forth at everyone present and said: "Yuan Shu and Tao Qian's entire army has been wiped out. Liu Bei is unable to survive alone in Pengcheng Kingdom. I predict that soon, Zhou Yu will definitely send elite troops and strong generals to cooperate with our army on the flanks to cover up and kill Liu Bei." At this time, it’s time to defeat Big Ear in one fell swoop!”

"Jiang Qin!"

"exist!"

"Send people quickly to Xiapi to negotiate with Zhou Yu to see when his troops will arrive in Pengcheng Kingdom. We can also calculate the time and jointly raise troops to attack Liu Bei." "No!"

"Zhu Zhi, Wu Jing!"

"exist!"

"Organize the troops and horses, train the sergeants, distribute food and fodder, and order the three armies to prepare for battle at any time. We are going to fight the big-ear bandits! Let Liu Da'er know how powerful I am!"

"promise!"

Then, Sun Jian set his sights on Sun Ce again.

"My son, this is a good opportunity to make achievements. My father has given this opportunity to you. You must not let your father down, and don't let Mr. Yuan down!"

Sun Ce hurriedly said: "Father, don't worry, the child will do his best and fight the enemy bravely. He will not embarrass his father or my Sun family!"

Sun Jian nodded with satisfaction.

"Well done."

After everyone discussed some details about the army, Sun Jian announced that the accounts were dismissed and everyone was allowed to do what they should do.

However, he left one person behind in the tent, and this person was Sun Ben.

"What's the point of leaving me here?"

Sun Jian was not in a hurry to reveal to Sun Ben the specific details of why he left Sun Ben behind. He just asked Sun Ben: "Boyang, do you think...in which direction will Yuan Shu flee after this defeat?"

Sun Bi was the son of Sun Jian's elder brother Sun Qiang. His parents died young. When Sun Jian launched an army, Sun Bi abandoned his official position and joined the army with Sun Jian. Over the years, he has been assisting Sun Jian as Sun Jian's arm.

For Sun Jian, Sun Bi is now a being more worthy of his trust than Sun Ce.

When Sun Jian asked about Yuan Shu, Sun Ben did not show any surprise.

He just walked to the map, looked at the road on it, and thought about it seriously.

"Yuan Shu was defeated by Zhou Yu. His soldiers were dying and he surrendered. He no longer had the capital to compete for world supremacy. If his nephew was Yuan Shu and faced this predicament, he might as well choose to commit suicide."

Sun Jian burst into laughter upon hearing this.

"It's a pity that you are not Yuan Shu. I know that person relatively well. He values ​​himself very much and cherishes his life very much."

"He will definitely not commit suicide. I will guarantee it with my life."

Sun Ben nodded and said: "If Yuan Shu does not want to die, then he can only find a party with similar forces, and given his status, the most likely person to join is the Yuan family."

"And the member of the Yuan family who has the power to accept him today is naturally Yuan Jingzhou."

Sun Jian looked at the map with his hands behind his back and said thoughtfully.

"Logically speaking, that is indeed the case."

"Before this war, Yuan Jingzhou did send Pang Ji to see Yuan Shu, hoping to cooperate with Yuan Shu and join forces to conquer the world together."

"Yuan Jingzhou is naturally sincere, but Yuan Shu is really too narrow-minded. Although he is the second son of the Yuan family, he is heartless, arrogant and looks down on others."

"He rejected Yuan Jingzhou's kindness before, but now he is turning to Yuan Jingzhou, but he may not be sincere. What do you think?"

Sun Ben said nothing.

He just looked at Sun Jian quietly, waiting for Sun Jian's next words.

"Now Yuan Jingzhou dominates Jingchu, and with Cao Mengde and me as our wings, he dominates Yangzhou and Yuzhou. In Yizhou, Yuan Boye is working hard to become stronger. Do you think that if Yuan Gongdao comes to invest... where will he be placed?"

Sun Ben suddenly spoke: "Cong's father used to serve Yuan Shu and later returned to Jingzhou. Cao Cao even had a sworn hatred for him. It would be best for Yuan Shu to die. If Yuan Shu did not die...invite him to Jingzhou to treat Cong's father and Cao Cao." , there is no benefit at all!”

Sun Jian was noncommittal.

"Who knows...whether he will die or not?"

Sun Ben stepped forward: "My nephew is willing to do difficult things to follow his father!"

Sun Jian turned around slowly: "We must try to find out his whereabouts and deal with him secretly. There are more bandits these days. The person who killed him may not necessarily be a bandit. After all, he is the Yuan family. Let's let him He should leave in a dignified manner without making any fanfare."

"This matter, God knows, you know and I know."

"No! Don't worry, follow my father!"
