"General, the people here don't seem to welcome us!" Zhang Liao's deputy Zeng Guang said without worry.

It was already the morning of the second day, and the deputy general Zeng Guang and a group of soldiers were accompanying Zhang Liao on horseback on the main street of Jizhou City.There were no pedestrians on the street, and the doors of every house on both sides of the street were closed, and there seemed to be pairs of vigilant eyes among them.

Zhang Liao glanced at both sides of the street, and said calmly: "We are newcomers, and it is normal for people to have doubts. Don't worry about it. We only need to complete the mission and leave here."

The lieutenant nodded. [

After the Northern Expedition Army led by Zhang Liao occupied Jizhou, they immediately deployed defenses in full swing.They don't have to do anything now, all they have to do is wait, waiting for the arrival of Yuan Shao's army.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

During the period when Yuan Shao and Cao Cao attacked Bingzhou, the gentry in Luoyang rejoiced. In their minds, Chen Chu, the most evil guy, was bound to be crushed to powder by the millions of troops of the two princes.

But as the saying goes, 'nine out of ten unsatisfactory things in life'.Just when the gentry in Luoyang were as excited as if they had eaten milk, two pieces of news came one after another that shocked them.First, the Zhengbei Army united with the Xiliang Army to destroy Dong Zhuo and rescue the emperor in Guanzhong; then the Zhengbei Army suddenly passed through Youzhou and attacked Jizhou, which shocked the Luoyang gentry and even the heroes of the world.

Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha, said with emotion after hearing the news that the Northern Zheng Army had raided Jizhou: "I never imagined that Chen Chu would be able to carry out such a dangerous move! The outcome of the battle in the Central Plains is unpredictable!"

At this time, a handsome general wearing chain armor and a golden crown with hair on his head beside Sun Jian said very dissatisfied: "Father, don't you praise that Chen Chu too much! Chen Chu is just lucky and relying on his subordinates The strength of the army is what led to the current situation, but now that Yuan Shao and Cao Cao are attacking him, his advantage is no longer there, and failure is only a matter of time!"

This handsome young man is none other than Sun Ce, the proud son of Sun Jian.This Sun Ce is not only heroic and heroic, but also has good martial arts. Although he is young, none of Sun Jian's generals are his opponents, and he has never met an opponent since his debut.There is no advertisement, but this also made him develop a youthful and overly aggressive character.

Sun Jian glanced at Sun Ce with a smile, and said warmly, "Ce'er is brave, and I am very happy to be my father! But Ce'er must not underestimate Chen Chu and his Northern Army! There are hundreds of thousands of fighting lions, this force is difficult for anyone to face alone!"

Sun Ce curled his lips unconvinced, "Everyone says that the Northern Army conquers the world, but I really want to see it!"

"Brother is right! There is no such thing as a double! It's just blown out! My little sister also wants to see how powerful the Zhengbei Army is!" The voice was clear and hoarse, with a strange magnetism Charm.

Following the prestige, a female general in red tight-fitting female armor, fit and full of wild charm came into view.This female general is the younger sister of Sun Jian's precious daughter Sun Ce - Sun Ren and Sun Shangxiang.

Sun Jian glanced at Sun Ce, then at Sun Ren, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future! Alright! Let's not talk about that now! Let's talk about our next plan!"

Sun Jian paused, and then said: "Our army has already occupied the two counties of Yuzhang and Jiujiang, and the total force has expanded to 15. Our original plan was to continue eastward to capture the two counties of Kuaiji and Wu, but Liu Biao of Jingzhou Send Huang Zu to station heavy troops in Jiangxia, with sinister intentions!"

Sun Ce immediately clasped his fists at Sun Jian and said, "Father, why don't you concentrate your forces to take down Jiang Xia and teach Liu Biao a lesson so that he doesn't dare to act rashly!" Sun Ce's tone was very angry.

Sun Jian frowned and said nothing.

At this time, Zu Mao, one of the four generals under Sun Jian's command, objected, "I disagree with what the young general said!"

Hearing this, Sun Ce was not angry, but sat down quietly to show his listening attitude.

Sun Jian nodded and signaled Zu Mao to continue. [

So Zu Mao continued: "Although our army has expanded rapidly over the past year, it is still much inferior to the strength of Liu Biao in Jingzhou. Although our army currently has 15 soldiers, a considerable part of them are undertrained recruits; but Liu Biao has 35 elite soldiers. It is really unwise for our army to fight Liu Biao at this time!"

Sun Jian nodded thoughtfully.

At this time, Sun Ce frowned and asked, "Although what General Zu said is reasonable, should we just let Liu Biao suppress us like this?"

Zu Mao shook his head and replied: "Of course not! Liu Biao is a man with great ambitions. The reason why he sent heavy troops to Jiangxia is because he thinks that we have threatened him! Therefore, we only need to do something to dispel his doubts. Then we can continue to advance eastward! When our strength is strong enough, it will not be too late to eliminate Liu Biao!"

Hearing this, everyone nodded involuntarily.

"Then how can we dispel Liu Biao's doubts?" Huang Gai, also one of the four generals, asked this question.

Regarding this question, Zu Mao had already considered it well, so he immediately replied: "Cai Mao has a lot of power in Jingzhou. Cai Mao's younger sister is Liu Biao's stepwife and Liu Biao loves him very much. Both of them are greedy for money. We can spend a lot of money Bribe Cai Mao and Cai to make them speak for us."

Sun Jian nodded, but said without hesitation: "Although Liu Biao has great ambitions, he is the leader of one party after all. I'm afraid he won't listen to the two of them in major matters!"

"My lord is wise, just as my lord said, it is very difficult to achieve our goal by relying on the Cai brothers and sisters alone, so we have to do other work!"

After a pause, Zu Mao continued: "We can marry Liu Biao. Once we get married, Liu Biao will definitely not guard against us! At that time, we can go eastward with peace of mind!"

Hearing this, Sun Jian suddenly felt enlightened.

"Okay! Very good! Darong has solved a big problem for me!" Sun Jian said happily.

Then he cast his eyes on Sun Ce, and said half-jokingly: "It seems that I have to find a wife for Ce'er!"

Hearing what his father said, Sun Ce couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and then realized that he scratched the back of his head a little shyly.

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw this.Sun Ren jumped to Sun Ce's side excitedly, "Brother, I'm going to have a sister-in-law! It's so great!"

However, at this moment, Zu Mao, who suggested the plan, objected: "My lord, I'm afraid it would be inappropriate for the major general to marry the daughter of Liu Biao's family!"

Sun Jian couldn't help being stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"

Zu Mao immediately explained: "To a certain extent, marrying a daughter is an attitude of showing weakness and submission to the other party. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is unlikely that the Liu family will marry their daughter!"

Zu Mao wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Sun Jian raising his hand. "I see what you mean! You mean that under the current circumstances, we have to marry our daughter!"

"My lord is wise!" Zu Mao cupped his fists and said with shame on his face. After all, this kind of weak behavior is really suffocating.

The scene suddenly became dull, and everyone's expressions were not very good.

Sun Jian frowned and didn't speak for a while.After a while, he raised his head to look around the crowd, and then said decisively: "Although this is unpleasant, but this is the only way to do it!" [

Immediately, his eyes fixed on Sun Ce's subordinate, Sun Ren, and Sun Jian's eyes showed guilt and reluctance, but this expression soon disappeared.

"Xiangxiang." Sun Jian called out in a low voice.

Sun Ren seemed to feel something, and couldn't help shaking.

"Father, my daughter is here." Sun Ren replied in a low voice.

Sun Jian paused, and then said: "Xiangxiang, you can marry into Liu's family!" Sun Jian's tone was full of reluctance, but he was determined not to refute.

Sun Ren's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but she did not resist her father's decision. "My daughter obeys!" Sun Ren replied softly with trembling lips.

At this moment, Sun Ce suddenly stood up and objected loudly: "No! Absolutely not! How can I let my sister

Do this kind of thing! "

Sun Jian's eyes turned cold, he glared at Sun Ce, and said coldly, "Ce'er, I've decided to be my father! Sit down for me!"

Sun Ce's face turned red immediately, and he wanted to refute, but he didn't dare to disobey his father's order.

Sun Ren quickly took Sun Ce's arm and said, "Brother! Xiang'er is getting married. This is a happy event! Don't worry about Xiang'er!".Sun Ren looked very happy, but everyone could see that it was an act of force.

Sun Ce glanced at Ruhua's beautiful younger sister, then sat down and sulked.

After Sun Ce calmed down, Sun Ren turned around and bowed to his father, Sun Jian, and said, "Father, my daughter will never disappoint my father's high expectations!"

Sun Jian didn't speak, but nodded emphatically.

Immediately, Sun Ren stood up and left the chamber.

Looking at the back of his daughter's departure, Sun Jian was in a very bad mood. He was really reluctant to part with this daughter, but in order to achieve hegemony, he had to abandon this daughter who was regarded as the jewel in his palm. ! ~!
