As Sun Quan and others walked towards the city, Sun Quan asked,
"What happened in the city before?"
"This..." The Zhang family consul seemed a little hesitant, "Where should I start?"
If we really want to talk about it, everything that happened before, and those who tried to ambush Sun Quan in the city, are inseparable from his Zhang family. The consul of the Zhang family also knew that many things could not be hidden, but he could try to distance himself from the Zhang family by downplaying certain things without lying.
As a result, before the Zhang family consul could think of words, he heard Sun Quan directly say,
"Let's start with Zhang Xian."
As soon as these words came out, Consul Zhang's expression changed drastically! Sure enough, that anti-bone boy said everything! Sun Quan knows everything!
(A certain young general: I am not afraid of death. I go out to spread the word and keep my mouth shut. Why do you cowardly young men accuse me wrongly!)
Regardless of whether the consul of the Zhang family wronged the young messenger, at least one thing is certain, that is, many things may not be hidden from Sun Quan!
Consul Zhang's face was suddenly covered with sweat. He glanced at Sun Quan secretly and saw that Sun Quan had a serious face and continued to walk forward without even turning his head, as if he was not in his eyes at all. Consul Zhang's feet went weak, and he quickly chased after him in three steps and then two steps. While wiping the sweat from his forehead, he hunched over and explained to Sun Quan hastily,
"General, Zhang Xian was no longer part of my Zhang family many years ago! It was my father who was deceived by him after he came to Changsha and saw how pitiful he was, so he was given an official position to help him make a living. No one thought of him. You have such arrogant ambitions!"
"continue."
Sun Quan said calmly, not moved at all by what the other party said. Glancing at the steward of the Zhang family out of the corner of his eye, Sun Quan felt a little emotional that the same person had such a big change between before and after.
In the illusion just now, because Sun Quan did not know the details of Changsha County, this was obviously noticed by the consul of the Zhang family who had experienced officialdom. Every time Sun Quan asked something, he did not rush. The answers are fluent.
But now, Sun Quan had a preliminary understanding of the situation in Changsha. He defeated the opponent's army as soon as he arrived, making it unclear how much Sun Quan knew, so he no longer dared to hide anything.
In short, in the illusion, Sun Quan asked and he answered. Although Sun Quan was not deceived, Sun Quan only understood the questions he asked. But now, Sun Quan didn't ask anything. He only gave the other party a "topic" and asked him to talk about it. As a result, the consul of the Zhang family explained everything clearly, including some things that outsiders didn't know. , something that only senior members of the Zhang family knew.
Zhang Xian is an outlier of the Zhang family. As we all know, the Zhang family is a medical family, and everyone in the family practices medicine. However, Zhang Xian has been rebellious since he was a child and is unwilling to study medicine. In ancient times, education usually relied on strict teachers to produce good students. As a result, Zhang Xian actually ran away from home under the strict discipline of his tribe.
In times of trouble, the Zhang family thought Zhang Xian died outside. Later, a plague broke out in Nanyang and the Zhang family moved away. No one even remembered Zhang Xian.
As a result, just a few years ago, Zhang Zhongjing was appointed as the prefect of Changsha by the imperial court, and Zhang Xian actually came back and came to Changsha.
It is human nature for a person to achieve enlightenment, a chicken or a dog ascend to heaven. When Zhang Zhongjing became the prefect, it was normal for the Zhang family members who were outside to join him one after another. Moreover, Zhang Xian did learn some skills outside, and it was also the skill that the Zhang family lacked the most - the ability to lead troops in war!
The Zhang family is a medical family, all of them are literati, and there is no martial artist. However, Zhang Zhongjing is obsessed with medical skills and basically does not care about political affairs. So, gradually, government affairs fell into the hands of the current consul of the Zhang family, while military affairs were taken care of by Zhang Xian.
Originally, in a place like Changsha, apart from the occasional fight against Yiyue, there wouldn't be many wars. Not only is Zhang Xian not known to outsiders, even the Zhang family themselves don't know how powerful Zhang Xian is.
But no one thought that Zhang Xian was really serious. When Jiang Dong was confronting Huang Zu in Xiakou, when no one was paying attention to Jingnan, a remote place, Zhang Xian secretly planned and used Zhang Zhongjing's reputation among the people was extremely high. In the name of Zhang Zhongjing, he quickly integrated the three counties of Changsha, Lingling and Guiyang!
Just kidding, this is the land of three counties. Even in remote areas, it can be called the overlord of one party, and it can even compete with the princes of the world!
Moreover, Zhang Xian is also very ambitious, which does not mean that he will be satisfied just by occupying the three counties. On the one hand, Zhang Xian blocked the news to prevent people from knowing what happened in Jingnan. On the other hand, Zhang Xian also planned to take advantage of Sun Quan's fight with Liu Biao to seize Wuling County again!
As a result, what Zhang Xian never expected was that after Sun Quan broke through Xiakou, he did not go north to Xiangyang, but chose to go south to Changsha.
Is Zhang Xian willing to give away the foundation he finally built for nothing? In addition, the soldiers of Changsha, under the leadership of Zhang Xian, were probably a little overwhelmed when they captured the three counties, so instead of being frightened by Sun Quan's name, they wanted to ambush Sun Quan. Sure enough, the prince and general Xiang Ning has the guts!
So, everything can be explained. Why did what happened before happen? Why was Zhang Xian able to leave decisively after discovering that the incident was exposed? Because, there are two counties, Guiyang and Lingling, that can be used as his base areas. Even Zhang Xian still has no intention of giving up, and he does not rule out the courage to retake Changsha!
"What a talent."
Sun Quan was quite impressed by Zhang Xian's story and became interested in talents. However, for such a powerful figure, how come Sun Quan has no impression in history? Is it because of the butterfly effect? Or is this just a meteor?
"Now, there is an advantage and a disadvantage." Sun Quan directly opened a strategy meeting. "The advantage is that we only need to defeat Zhang Xian, and all three counties of Changsha, Lingling, and Guiyang will be obtained. The disadvantage is that we can obviously They were defeated one by one, even without a fight, but now, we have to fight a tough battle. After all, Zhang Xian is very ambitious and does not seem to be someone who is easily submissive. "
"Lord, if we are dragged here by Zhang Xian, it will give Liu Biao a chance to breathe, which will not be conducive to our strategy of seizing Nanjun and giving priority to controlling both sides of the Yangtze River." Dong Xi reminded.
"In your opinion, what should we do?" Sun Quan asked.
"Join Jiaozhou Shixie and ask him to send troops to suppress the bandits." Dong Xi suggested.
"Oh?" Sun Quan rolled his eyes. South of Lingling Guiyang is indeed Jiaozhou. Jiaozhou is the most remote area of the Han Dynasty. The standard mountains are high and the emperor is far away. The scholar family in Jiaozhou is basically a local emperor. Of course they don't want too many people around them. An ambitious and powerful enemy.
only,
"Why should Shi Xie help me?" Sun Quan asked. He, Sun Quan, was much more threatening than a little Zhang Xian.
