Chapter 96 Sun Jian's Difficulties

Kuai Yue and Cai Xun spent several days seriously thinking about the official positions in Jingzhou that should be asked for from Dong Zhuo in the future, and listed them.

Let’s not talk about what Cai Xun thinks, but Kuai Yue has indeed achieved a bowl of water to a certain extent this time.

Nowadays, the clan talents of the Liu family in Shanyang have been basically brought to Jingzhou by Liu Biao. Therefore, Kuai Yue also filled out some people from the Liu family in Shanyang on the list of requests, and did his best to let Liu, Cai and Kuai families divide the important tasks of the Nanjun evenly.

Evenly divided... This is the first impression that Liu Qi had of this memorial in his mind after seeing the bamboo slips sent by Kuai Yue and Cai Xun.

Liu Qi felt a little apologized to Kuai Yue. Just based on this list, we can see that he is quite loyal to him now. At least he puts Liu Qi and his family in the same position, which is unbiased.

But unfortunately, Liu Qi cannot respond to Kuai Yue's feelings.

"It is said that Liu Biao, a native of Gaoping, Shanyang, was the general of Zhennan, was the governor of Jingzhou, was the governor of Gaoping, Shanyang, was the governor of Liu Qi, was the governor of Changsha, Liu Pan, a native of Gaoping, Shanyang, was the commander of Liu Dan, a native of Gaoping, Shanyang, was the magistrate of Zhangling County..."

"Suppose Cai Mao, a native of Caizhou, Xiangyang, was the magistrate of Nanjun, Cai Xun, a native of Caizhou, was the magistrate of Nanjun, Cai Zhong, a native of Caizhou, was the magistrate of Xiangyang, and Cai Shi, a native of Caizhou, was the magistrate of Caizhou..."

"It is said that Kuai Liang, a native of Zhonglu, Xiangyang, Nanjun, was the commander of Nanjun, Kuai Yue, a native of Zhonglu, was the chief minister of Nanjun, Kuai Chu, a native of Zhonglu, was the commander of Xiangyang, and Kuai Rong, a native of Zhonglu, was the commander of Kuai Rong..."

After reading it carefully, Liu Qi closed the bamboo slips and said to Kuai Yue and Cai Xun: "It's hard for you to draw up the list. Just look at the name of the bamboo slips, Liu Qi knew that you could use all your thoughts to maintain the friendship between the families in our Nanjun everywhere. It's really not easy."

Cai Xun and Kuai Yue were quite grateful when they heard Liu Qi's words.

The planning and hard work that has lasted for a few days is not in vain.

The two bowed and bowed at the same time and said, "Young Master praised me, I really don't dare to take it."

Kuai Yue smiled and said, "I wonder what the young master thinks about this list? If there is anything wrong, please correct me."

Liu Qi handed the bamboo slips to Kuai Yue and said, "The list drawn up by Mr. and Sima Cai is not a problem in Liu Qi's opinion. If an envoy comes back to Luoyang, the sir will hand the bamboo slips to Dong Zhuo's messenger on my behalf."

Kuai Yue never thought that Liu Qi would be so easy to talk to. He wouldn’t even change the list he had drafted with Cai Xun?

Nothing changed!?

Cai Xun was overjoyed and hurriedly said, "I will trust Mr. Xie!"

Liu Qi smiled and said, "The two are Qi's right-hand men. If Qi doesn't believe in him, who else can I believe?"

Liu Qi said this, but he felt a little embarrassed to say Kuai Yue and Cai Xun.

However, Kuai Yue was still a little suspicious.

But no matter how suspicious it is, Kuai Yue still didn't think of the flaw in it...

Not only did Liu Qi not change his sentence, he also asked himself to keep this list. When he negotiated with Dong Zhuo's envoy the next day, Kuai Yue personally handed it to the other party's envoy. It can be said that he not only calmed down Cai Kuai's heart, but also showed Liu Qi's open mind.

Since he couldn't think of a flaw, what was left in Kuai Yue's heart was gratitude.

Liu Qi turned his mind: "Two, please return to the camp later and ask the three armies to pack their bags. Tomorrow morning, we will pull out the village and head straight to Yangrencheng."

"Let's go straight to Yangren?" The bright light in Kuai Yue's mind was suddenly lit up by Liu Qi.

He looked at Liu Qi in surprise, and his heart was filled with thoughts.

In the past few days, Kuai Yue has not figured out what the method of resisting the Western Liang army after Liu Qi and the Yizhou army split.

With the current combat power of the Jingzhou Army, no matter how hard it is to fight, there is no chance of winning...

Dong Zhuo was under his command of the Xiliang Army, which had been stationed on the border for many years and the Bingzhou Army that had been confiscated from Ding Yuan.

Including the Northern and Southern Army left by He Jin in Luoyang, the Tiger Army, and the Eighth Battalions of the Capital.

Any army is not comparable to that of the Jingzhou army now.

Until today, Kuai Yue realized that Liu Qi had actually had Sun Jian’s idea.

But, what method and reason can he use to find Sun Jian?

"Young Master, Sun Jian is arrogant and quite violent. What method does the young master use to let him allow us to go?" Kuai Yue asked Liu Qi for advice.

Kuai Yue didn't know that Cai Mao had written a letter to Cao Cao for Liu Qi, nor did he know that Cao Cao had secretly replied to Liu Qi, so he naturally could not reason about this series of causal arguments.

If Kuai Yue had known this from the beginning, he could easily figure out the key with his wisdom.

At that moment, Liu Qi made a statement to the two of them.

After listening, Cai Xun was surprised and said, "When did my brother write such a letter to Cao Cao? Why didn't he tell me?"

Liu Qi thought to himself: I'm afraid your brother didn't even think clearly about how effective this letter to Cao Cao would be.

But Kuai Yue said to Liu Qi: "Since the young master has already made up his mind, we will immediately go to pack up the troops and start the next day."

"Thank you two for your hard work."

...

The next day, the Jingzhou army immediately set up camp and headed towards Yangren County.

At this time, Sun Jian had already received a letter from Yuan Shu, asking him to meet and station with Liu Qi in Yangren County, and pay close attention to Liu Qi's movements...

Yuan Shu also instructed that if Cao Cao also arrived in Yangren, Sun Jian should not let them get along with each other intimately.

Sun Jian actually sneered at Yuan Shu's letter.

Sun Jian was fond of martial arts and warriors, and had been traversing the north and south for many years. He was very good at using troops. He was arrogant by nature and did not like to fight with others. What's more, Yuan Shu asked him to do something to monitor the Jingzhou army.

Wu Huizhihu, now Yuan Shu actually asked him to do the work of guarding the door and guarding the hospital. How could Sun Jian not be upset?

But no matter how reluctant it is, Sun Jian has to obey the order given by Yuan Shu.

It’s not that Yuan Shu’s combat power is higher than Sun Jian’s current combat power. On the contrary, Sun Jian’s troops are the main force that Yuan Shu needs to rely on.

But Sun Jian had to rely on Yuan Shu.

During this life, Sun Jian had been through many wars, and followed Zhu Jun to conquer the Yellow Turbans, followed Zhang Wen to defeat Beigong Boyu, and defeated Changsha District Star, which was intimidating the battlefields of the north and south.

But Sun Jian had one weakness, that is, he made contributions to the conquest and had no literary virtue.

People who lack literary and moral character and excessive martial arts are rarely favored by prominent families in this era dominated by scholars and officials.

When such a person does not make mistakes, it may be fine, but once he makes a mistake, he will easily put himself on the target of public criticism.

And Sun Jian made a big mistake a year ago.

He killed Zhang Zi, the governor of Nanyang County.

When Dong Zhuo first took office, in order to quickly integrate into the gentry group, he appointed a group of famous scholars as the governors of various counties for his use, such as Han Fu, Kong Yichang, Liu Dai and others.

Zhang Zi is also one of them, he is a famous scholar in Yingchuan.

In this era, if you want to kill famous scholars, you will definitely pay a huge political price unless you have enough political capital or have enough prestige and deterrence among the literati and official groups.

In history, Cao Cao's killing of famous scholar Bian Rang was one of the fuses of the civil war in Yanzhou (of course, it is not entirely the reason).

Sun Jian, who lacked literary virtue and excessive martial arts, dared to pay a salary of 2,000 stones, and Zhang Zi, who also enjoyed the famous Yingchuan scholar, slaughtered a knife...

This behavior cannot be tolerated by the gentry groups in Nanyang County and Yuzhou... They will concentrate their efforts to make Sun Jian lose food in the rear.

Are those so-called prominent clans or famous scholars who are incredible?

Of course not, you can touch it, but who will touch it if you score?

People in the prominent clan circle touch each other and kill each other. No problem, it’s OK!

Everyone is a group of people, and they play together as prominent clans and gentry according to the rules left over from hundreds of years. It is reasonable to eliminate the winners and the weak.

But if outsiders or small and medium-sized tycoons who have not met the standard have to participate, I'm sorry, it's like destroying the rules of the game.

For example, in the United States before the 20th century, white people killed white people and black people killed white people. Can this potentially deep meaning be the same?

In order to maintain the order of the game, it is impossible to let those who break the rules have good results.

Sun Jian's ancestors were officials in Wu and were considered a medium-sized tyrant, but they were definitely not a prominent family.

The Sun family often threatens that it is the descendant of the military saint Sun Wu, but if you talk about it more than 600 years ago, you can tell me about it when you go to the Han Dynasty. Is it useless?

Nowadays, there are more people who are talking nonsense and lie! There is no way to verify it! If you are willing to brag, you can just blow it yourself!

Moreover, if the middle-class tyrants of Wu County, such as the Sun family, had really had a prominent and prominent family in modern times, how could they gain the fame of their ancestors more than 600 years ago?

It is really no special figure among these generations.

A powerful son of a county who was famous for his military affairs actually dared to kill famous scholars of prominent families... and it was in Nanyang County! This is the hometown of Emperor Guangwu, the place where the Han Dynasty was the dragon-rise, and the gathering of famous families of gentry?

Afterwards, Sun Jian may have noticed the seriousness of the matter.

He immediately expressed his opinion to follow Yuan Shu and use the huge aristocratic umbrella of Yuan's family to block the fierce open and hidden arrows of Nanyang County and Yingchuan County.

At this moment, if Yuan Shu had not been in charge of Nanyang County, it would have been useless for Sun Jian to go north to attack Dong no matter how brave he was... because the food and supplies behind him would have been cut off by the gentry in Nanyang County and Yingchuan.

At present, only Yuan Shu can take charge of the universe and use the reputation of the Yuan family to create a solid rear for Sun Jian.

Yuan Shu is now in control of Sun Jian's lifeline, and Sun Jian has to obey him.
