Chapter 505 Jiangdong Tiger
Several flowers bloom, one on each side. While Chen Long was going deep into Xiliang to rescue his beloved wife Diao Chan, a medium-sized boat had quietly flowed down the river from the mouth of the Danjiang River and headed straight for Jiangxia, the important town in Jingzhou. The boatmen on the ship all have high temples, and they are all Lian Jiazi at first glance, and the two peerless masterminds in the cabin are none other than Zhuge Kongming and Lu Su Lu Zijing who were ordered to go to Jiangdong as envoys.
Jiangxia is the defense zone of the Qinglong Qihu generals Huang Zhong and Huang Hansheng. They have been confronting Huang Zu for many years, and both sides have carefully maintained a balance of power. Huang Zhong would naturally not take the initiative to attack Jiangbei and Sanjiangkou without Chen Long's permission; and Huang Zu had not kept a high profile since he half-dedicated to Sun Ce. He only hunkered down in his Queyue City, and his son Huang She supervised Zhang Shuo for daily military training. and Chen Jiuer will be completed. But in Yuzhang County on the other side of the Yangtze River, Ling Cao and Xu Kun, the two Jiangdong generals, trained the Jiangdong navy on their own.
The entire Jiangxia force is divided into three parts to secure the respective areas of Sanjiangkou. Zhuge Liang and Lu Su took a boat and headed straight for the Sanjiangkou. The boat was moving at a slow pace. In the cockpit, young Zhuge Liang and Lu Su were having a deep conversation, and the topic was naturally related to the destination of the mission ----- -Koto.
Jiangdong Sun Jian, who was originally a general under Yuan Shu, used the jade seal to borrow troops to return to his hometown, and finally laid the foundation of the Sun family in Jiangdong. According to the official history, among the heroes of the Kwantung who crusaded against Dong Zhuo, Sun Jian's army was the only army that had several head-to-head confrontations with Dong Zhuo's army and achieved great victories. After Cao Cao defeated Bianshui, Yuan Shao hesitated to advance, the jujube coalition collapsed, and the world When people stopped to watch, his lone battle made Dong Zhuo, who despised the world, rush westward in a hurry with a light on his back. Sun Jian's heroic spirit also made other warlords jealous. When his lone army entered the capital, divided his forces in Hangu, and tried to kill Dong Zhuo, all the heroes in the coalition had their own agendas and deliberately stood still. The power of the world had shifted from fighting Dong Zhuo together to opening up the heroes' own territory. . Even if Sun Jian is unstoppable, it will be difficult to restore the fragile and divided alliance against Dong. Dong Zhuo's crusade came to an end in a hurry without a decisive victory.
Sun Jian fought fiercely and often ignored life and death, so he was nicknamed "Jiangdong Tiger". Sun Jian encountered too many wars in his life, and the Jiangdong Tigers have been growing stronger through the quelling of chaos. During the Kuaiji Rebellion, the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the Liangzhou Rebellion, the Changsha Rebellion, and the Lingling Rebellion, Sun Jian relied on his military exploits to gradually rise from a county official to the governor of Changsha and the Marquis of Wucheng. Once, after a big battle, he took advantage of the victory to pursue the enemy and rode deep into the enemy's rear. He was defeated, injured and fell off his horse, lying in the weeds. At that time, the troops were scattered and no one knew where he was. Fortunately, the war horse he rode ran back to the military camp, roaring and neighing. The soldiers followed their horses to look for him and found Sun Jian in the grass. Sun Jian recovered from his injuries for more than ten days, and after recovering from his injuries, he went back to the battlefield to fight.
Unfortunately, the Jiangdong Tiger died young. In April of 191 AD (the second year of Chuping), Yuan Shu sent Sun Jian to conquer Jingzhou and attack Liu Biao. Liu Biao sent Huang Zu to fight between Fancheng and Deng County. Sun Jian defeated Huang Zu, took advantage of the victory to pursue, crossed the Han River, and surrounded Xiangyang. Liu Biao refused to fight and sent Huang Zu out of the city at night to mobilize soldiers. Huang Zu returned with his troops, and Sun Jian resumed fighting. Huang Zu was defeated again and fled into the Xian Mountains. Sun Jian bravely pursued him. Huang Zu's troops would fire hidden arrows from the bamboo forest. Unfortunately, Sun Jian was hit by the arrow and died, and the star fell.
Sun Jian died in battle, and his nephew Sun Ben led the remaining troops left by Sun Jian to help carry the coffin, and later attached to Yuan Shu. Most of Sun Jian's experienced tiger generals belonged to his eldest son Sun Ce. Sun Ce is known as the Little Overlord of Jiangdong. He is the youngest, but his bravery is not inferior to that of his father. He is also well-organized and good-looking. He has become the new idol of the tiger soldiers for a while. Sun Jian had a son like this, so he naturally did not want to succumb to the notorious Yuan Shu for a long time. Taking advantage of his order to conquer Huainan and Jiangdong, Sun Ce captured the three counties of Wu, Danyang, and Kuaiji in Jiangdong. Yuan Shu just happened to be stunned and proclaimed emperor. Sun Ce also took the opportunity to break away from Yuan Shu, expel his cronies and stand on his own.
In the boat, the middle-aged Lu Su was stroking his beard and talking. Zhuge Liang nodded slightly and listened. The topic was Sun Ce, the little overlord of Jiangdong. Just listen to Lu Su's loud voice saying: "After the battle of Jiangxia, it was divided into three. Sun Bofu saw that he could not shake the Qinglong Army, so he turned his head and tried to cross the Yangtze River eastward, attack Yangzhou Governor Liu Yao's generals Fan Neng and Yu Mi, and take Hengjiangjin. It was a base for crossing the river. He also attacked Zhang Ying at Danglikou, further attacked Qu'a as a stronghold, and fought a decisive battle with Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou. Sun Ce attacked Yao's Niuzhu camp and obtained all the grain and war equipment from Dige. Fan Neng, Yu Mi, etc. Once again, they united their forces to attack Niuzhu Tun. When Ce heard about it, he attacked and defeated Fan Neng. He captured more than 10,000 men and women, and finally defeated Liu Yao. Liu Yao led the remaining soldiers and fled into the mountains of Yuzhang County, where they ended up unknown."
"Sun Bofu defeated Liu Yao, and his army became strong. He led the victorious troops to attack Wang Lang of Kuaiji and Yan Baihu of Wu County. After Yuan Shu overrode and proclaimed himself emperor, Sun Ce broke with Yuan Shu. In the same year, he was first appointed by the imperial court as the Cavalry Commander to attack his father. Wuchenghou also served as the prefect of Kuaiji. Within a few months, the imperial court issued an order to appoint Sun Ce as the general to fight against rebellion, and he was granted the title of Marquis of Wu. Sun Ce decided to rule in Jiankang, defeated Liu Xun, the prefect of Lujiang, and captured the queen of Yuzhang County. , finally unified Jiangdong."
Zhuge Liang was fascinated by what Lu Su said and said with a smile: "What a great Sun Ce and Sun Bofu. But I don't know where his nickname of Jiangdong Little Overlord came from?"
Lu Su laughed and said: "It is said that Sun Bofu attacked Liu Yao. When the two formations were facing each other, a man behind Liu Yao came out with a gun. He was his subordinate Mi Ye. He fought against Ce and was captured alive by Ce. He turned his horse Returning to the formation. Fan Neng, the general of Yao, saw that Yu Mi had been captured, and came to catch him with his gun drawn. The gun just hit Ce's heart, and the sergeant on the formation shouted: "There is someone plotting behind you! "Ce turned around and saw Fan Neng coming on horseback. He shouted loudly, the sound was like a huge thunder. Fan Neng was so frightened that he turned over and knocked off the horse. He broke his head and died. Ce reached the gate and threw Yu Mi down. He was already kidnapped. Death. In an instant, he killed a general and drank another to death: From then on, everyone called Sun Ce the "little overlord"."
Zhuge Liang narrowed his eyes slightly, shook his head and said: "I heard that there is a person beside Bo Fu who has beautiful appearance and unparalleled talent and intelligence. Without this person to serve as Sun Ce's mastermind, how could the little overlord unify the counties in Jiangdong so easily?"
Lu Su's face became serious, and he obviously knew who Zhuge Liang was talking about as the mastermind of Jiangdong. In the past, Lu Zijing had a close relationship with this man and deeply admired his intelligence. Glancing at Zhuge Liang, Lu Su smiled and said: "This man is amazingly talented and very handsome. He is a good opponent for Kong Ming!"
