In the past, Yuan Shu had never worried about this situation, because at that time, his Yuan family was so superior that, to put it bluntly, it was not an exaggeration to let Sun Quan marry into his wife. But today is different from the past. The current head of the Yuan family, Yuan Wei, has been infamous for deposing the emperor. The two brothers Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao have been released, but they have not yet become popular. Compared with Sun Jian, today's Yuan Shu is not said to be equal. , it’s good if you don’t lag behind others. What qualifications does Yuan Shu have to marry Sun Quan?
At that time, Sun Quan was still Sun Quan of the Sun family, but it was his daughter Yuan Shu who married into the Sun family and became the Sun family's daughter-in-law.
Yuan Shu is very proud, Yuan Shu is arrogant, and Yuan Shu is also very petty. In the past, he was aloof and superior, but Yuan Shu cannot accept the contrast of his current status change. If it were Yuan Shao, he might be thinking about how to lead his family back to the top, but as for Yuan Shu, I don’t know if it’s because of his size or his talent. Yuan Shu probably lacks self-confidence. Compared to trying to improve himself, he doesn’t see others. Better than him.
What should I do if I don’t have the ability to score 100 points but still want to be number one? It's very simple, just use various means to make those students with good grades do worse than you!
Therefore, this is not a question of how much Yuan Shu values Sun Quan and must get Sun Quan, but that his Yuan family must suppress the Sun family, and Sun Quan's marriage only proves this!
"Cihang Jingzhai is extremely powerful in Jingzhou. This time Cihang Jingzhai ignored the Sun family and took action. For what purpose?" Yuan Shu brought up this topic intentionally or unintentionally.
Sun Jian wanted to find out the truth, but Yuan Shu didn't care at all about Cihang Jingzhai's thoughts. Does it really matter what Cihang Jingzhai thinks? As long as Sun Jian is suspicious of Cihang Jingzhai, then they will be enemies. With Cihang Jingzhai threatening them, it will not be easy for the Sun family to develop and grow.
Sun Jian's face was gloomy. He had gained nothing in Jingzhou before, but he had benefited from Liu Biao in vain. For this, Sun Jian had long been unhappy with Cihang Jingzhai. But Cihang Jingzhai's power is deeply rooted, and they have not made it clear that they are hostile to you. Under the current situation where Dong Zhuo is prioritized, Sun Jian does not want to have another strong enemy for the time being. Therefore, Sun Jiancai never said anything about what happened before.
But this time, I have to say that Cihang Jingzhai went too far! Regardless of whether Sun Quan is at fault or not, he is still a member of his Sun family. The ancients valued face the most, but Cihang Jingzhai did not take his Sun family seriously at all!
"I also know that Zhongmou, this kid, may seem eccentric in his actions, but he is actually very measured. I don't believe that he would do anything excessive. I really don't agree with what Cihang Jingzhai did this time. Brother Sun, Don't worry, no matter what the truth is, I will always stand by your side!" Yuan Shu patted Sun Jian's shoulder heavily to show his sincerity.
"Then I have to thank Brother Yuan first! Come on, don't talk about these troublesome things for now, drink! That kid has been dawdling all day, and he hasn't arrived yet. I will teach him a lesson today!" Sun Jian said.
"Haha, don't be in a hurry, it's rare to be in this kind of elegance, so why not sit down for a while." Yuan Shu said with a smile.
······
The woods not far away,
Hu Zhen, the governor of Dongjun, is ambushing here with his troops.
"What's going on? Have our actions been exposed!"
Hu Zhen narrowed his eyes. He marched all night just to launch a surprise attack. But now he saw that Sun Jian had been waiting for him outside the city gate. What did Hu Zhen think?
From a geographical point of view, Dongjun is in the northeast of Luyang. There is a Qinling Mountains between Luyang and Luoyang in the north. Although it is not impossible to pass through, in this era, it is very difficult to lead troops through it. of. Therefore, the northeast of Luyang is the front line, where Sun Jian hoards heavy troops.
Even if it was a surprise attack, Hu Zhen did not dare to underestimate Sun Jian, a descendant of Sun Tzu and a military strategist. Therefore, Hu Zhen deliberately used a strategy this time, that is, leaving only a small number of people to feint attack in the northeast, while he himself He personally led his troops and sneaked around to the south of Luyang City overnight, preparing to attack the weakest area of Luyang and catch Sun Jian by surprise.
But now, Hu Zhen led his troops to ambush in the woods south of Luyang City, while Sun Jian was drinking and chatting with people outside the south of the city? What does this mean? A God-given opportunity?
Yes, there are very few troops around Sun Jian at the moment, and they are still a certain distance away from the city gate. If they rush over as quickly as possible, they may be able to complete the battle and capture Sun Jian's head in one fell swoop. Once Sun Jian died, wouldn't Lu Yang be destroyed? ! A more impulsive general, such as Lu Bu and Zhang Fei, would probably have rushed forward by now. But looking at the tactics Hu Zhen used in advance, we know that he is a thoughtful and cautious person, and Hu Zhen does not dare to underestimate him at all. Sun Jian.
So, could this be Sun Jian's plan to lure troops? If he rushed out rashly, he might just fall into an ambush by Sun Jian. Thinking more deeply, why could Sun Jian understand his Hu Zhen's plan in advance? Could it be that there is a mole in his army? If this is the case, if you rush out, you will not only encounter Sun Jian's ambush, but also someone will jump behind you, and you will instantly fall into a desperate situation of being attacked from both sides!
Hu Zhen would be very reluctant to withdraw his troops at this time. After all, this might really be a rare God-given opportunity. But he didn't dare to ask Hu Zhen to rush forward directly. As a result, the two sides were in a stalemate for a while.
"General."
At this time, a counselor from the team stepped forward.
"Oh? Xi Zhicai, what do you think?" Hu Zhen asked. Xi Zhicai is a rare strategic talent in his army, and he has always been valued by Hu Zhen. (When Cao Cao was in Dongjun in the early days, his advisers were mainly Chen Gong and Xi Zhicai, so theoretically, Xi Zhicai should have been somewhat famous before he joined Cao Cao. This book is set, Xi Zhicai was in the period of Hu Zhen He was already in the Dongjun army, and later Cao Cao became the governor of Dongjun and was directly included in his command)
"The general should be worried whether Sun Jian is deceiving." Xi Zhicai said.
Hu Zhen nodded,
"Sun Jian has been victorious in all these years. I really don't dare to underestimate him."
"General, we can actually verify whether Sun Jian committed fraud or not," Xi Zhicai said.
Hu Zhen's eyes lit up and he quickly grabbed Xi Zhicai.
"Do you have any good ideas? Tell me quickly!"
"Sun Jian and Yuan Shu were drinking outside the city. It was very strange. If it wasn't a deception, there was only one possibility: they were welcoming someone important. Judging from the direction, I guess they were from Jingzhou." Xi Zhicai said.
Hu Zhen narrowed his eyes.
"You mean that Liu Biao, the newly appointed governor of Jingzhou, is planning to join forces with Sun Jian and will also rebel?!"
"This possibility cannot be ruled out." Xi Zhicai said solemnly. With the status of Sun Jian and Yuan Shu, they would definitely be able to go out to greet them in person, and they would definitely be quite heavyweights. Even Liu's cousin might not arrive.
"Anyway, general, no matter who is coming, we only need to send people from the official road to the south to search. If we find that important people are coming, it means that Sun Jian and Yuan Shu are really waiting for someone. This is not a trick. The general launched an attack immediately; and if no important person is found, it proves that Sun Nuo is indeed deceiving, so the general should withdraw his troops directly and consider the long term." Xi Zhicai said.
