Chapter 978

Sun Ce rushed to Gaoping.

Along the way, after looking at the terrain, Sun Ce knew that Guo Jia's plan was successful. It was a big mistake to give up Gao Ping.

The north of Gaoping is Gaoping Mountain, which is not very wide, ten miles north and south, four or five miles east and west, and not high and steep. More importantly, there are several mountains from Gaoping to the east to Zuo County. They are not closely connected with each other, and there is no dangerous place, so they are easy to pass through. In terms of geographical advantages, they are not as important as Hulu and Qi County. However, Sishui is on the west side of Gaoping, which is conducive to the power defense in the direction of Pengcheng. Unlike Hulu, it is more beneficial to Shanyang.

Another advantage of Gao Ping is that he has a strong learning atmosphere and many famous scholars. The Wang family is from Gaopingwang clan. Wang Gong and Wang Chang and his son are the third duke. Wang Chang not only has a great official position but also has good knowledge, but Liu Biao is his disciple. Gaoping Wang family is famous. He Jin invited Wang Chang's son Wang Qian to be the chief minister and wanted to marry Wang Qian. He asked him to choose one of his two daughters, but Wang Qian refused.

Wang Qian was of limited fame in later generations, but he had a very famous son: Wang Can.

In addition to the Wang family and Liu family, Gaoping also has a Zhang family, passed down from King Zhang Er of Zhao, which is also considered to be 2,000 stones for generations. Zhang Jian, a famous scholar who "looked over to the door", is the contemporary head of the Zhang family. Although Sun Ce looked down on Zhang Jian, it did not prevent Zhang Jian from being famous. Anyway, when locals mentioned Zhang Jian, they all praised him and thought it was a very honorable thing to be a village party with such famous scholars. It is said that in the past few years, Zhang Jian even spent his family money to save the people and survived hundreds of families.

When Sun Ce entered the city, he happened to meet Liu Biao who was rushing back. Liu Biao had just got off the boat and was waiting for the car to get on the shore. He was eight feet tall and very conspicuous in the crowd. Sun Ce saw him at a glance. Although he was an enemy back then, Liu Biao finally took the initiative to hand over the seal from the governor of Jingzhou, which was considered decent, so Sun Ce sent someone to say hello. At this time, when he met Sun Ce, Liu Biao felt unlucky, but he did not dare to show off and rushed to Sun Ce to see him.

"I'm so in a hurry, afraid that I'll kill your whole family?" Sun Ce said with a smile: "My reputation is so bad?"

Liu Biao was amused and laughed. "General, whether your reputation is bad or not has nothing to do with me." Although it was embarrassing to meet like this, when he saw Sun Ce talking like this, his heart hanging in the air was still relieved, at least he would not be in danger of his life.

"What official should I be under Yuan Xiansi? I heard that last time I was in Junyi, you seemed to be leading troops to fight."

Liu Biao smiled bitterly. "That's just a temporary agent. I am a scammer in Zhizhong, just a idle."

"Yuan Xiansi doesn't need you?"

"I have no talent and no virtue, so I can only be a idle friend."

Sun Ce glanced at Liu Biao and couldn't help laughing. "I'll treat you, are you willing to give in?"

Liu Biao didn't say anything. He knew that every word he said to Sun Ce could reach Yuan Tan's ears, and a word of carelessness would cause ambiguity. Of course, he was unwilling to be with Sun Ce, but he did not dare to reject Sun Ce in person, so he could only replace it with silence.

"The melon that is forced is not sweet. Since you don't want to, I won't force it. For the sake of old acquaintances, I would like to advise you in advance and go back and check yourself to see if there are anyone who has occupied the people's land. If there are, spit it out as soon as possible. When I find out, I will be embarrassed."

Liu Biao's lips trembled and he couldn't help but say, "General is going to implement the new policy in Gaoping?"

Sun Ce smiled. "It's not just Gao Ping." He paused, looked at Liu Biao for a moment, and then said, "There is a sentence that may be a bit presumptuous, but it is also [     Updated Fast] to remind you. Over the age of fifty years old, it's time to do something meaningful. If you can't make merits, you can also establish morality and words. What's the point of following the Yuan father and son who are so cruel to the bones of the decay?"

After Sun Ce said that, he raised his hand, turned his horse's head, and surrounded the knights. Liu Biao stood by the roadside and pondered for a long time. The waiter rushed over to the carriage. Liu Biao got on the carriage, leaned against the window, watched the orderly knight pass by in front of him. Thinking about the words Sun Ce had just said, he suddenly felt indescribable.

Sun Ce wanted to implement the new policy in Gaoping, which obviously meant to capture the entire Shanyang, otherwise he would not have had such a struggle. Where did he get the confidence? He actually said that Yuan Shao and his son were the bones of a decay? But if he thought about it carefully, Yuan Shao's development in recent years was indeed not as smooth as he imagined. The first year of Chuping was probably the time when he was most famous. Later, he took Jizhou and defeated Gongsun Zan. His strength became stronger and stronger, but his reputation was weakened unknowingly. He failed to try to depose and establish the Chang'an court. Not only did he lose his aura in the General's Mansion, but he retreated step by step. As for forcing Han Fu to death, he turned against his brothers Zhang Miao, it was even more uneasy.

Nowadays, the world is no longer the only one with the Yuan family. There is the Chang'an court that is morally dominant in the west, the Sun family and his son who are growing rapidly in strength in the south, and Gongsun Zan is ready to move in the north. He is attacked from all sides, and the situation is very bad.

Liu Biao originally planned to come back to pick up his family, but when he thought about it, he thought it would be better to stay in Gaoping and wait and see for a while. Anyway, Sun Ce had no intention of killing him. He also wanted to take advantage of this time to think about what to do next. As Sun Ce said, over fifty years old, it was time to do something meaningful.

——

When Sun Ce arrived at the city gate, someone was waiting. He was in his twenties, dressed in a Confucian scholar, with beautiful eyebrows and clear eyes, and two followers followed him, leading horses.

"General to fight against rebellion, Ji is ordered by General Zhengdong. I am waiting here. Please follow me." The young man said, while presenting the famous sting with both hands. Sun Ce took it and took a look, then picked it up.

"So it's Yi Jibo, I have been admired for a long time."

Yi Ji was slightly stunned and then smiled again. "I heard that the general was very knowledgeable about his eyes and eyes. When I saw him today, it was indeed an eye-opener."

Sun Ce returned the name to the sect, signaling Yiji to get on the horse and enter the city with him. "Jibo is too modest. Gaoping is indeed a lot of talents, and some people are even famous all over the world. Jibo is indeed inferior to them. However, in terms of practice, you are not inferior to them."

Yi Ji's eyes flashed, he stroked his short beard under his jaw and said with a smile: "General knows I'm very practical?"

Sun Ce smiled but refused to answer. Yi Ji had no great reputation in the history of the Three Kingdoms. Many people think that he was a mediocre person and had a mixed experience with Liu Bei. In fact, Yi Ji was well-versed in the law. He and Zhuge Liang, Fa Zheng, Liu Ba and Li Yan jointly created the Shu Han Dynasty to legislate. As long as he thought about the roles of the other four, he could also know Yi Ji's legal achievements. However, he was good at dealing with other laws and did not achieve much military and political achievements. This may be because of his single ability, or because he was embarrassed in the Shu Han Dynasty. He was neither the Jingxiang School nor the Yuan Cong School. Instead, Liu Biao's fellow countrymen could only be a human being with his tail.

After a while, Sun Ce said, "What is Ji Bo's position to be betrayed by his father's tent?"

"The General Mengdong refused to abandon him, and he was welcomed and sent to him, and received people and treated things."

"I understand." Sun Ce nodded. "My father is busy with military affairs and may not have much time to pay attention to Ji Bo. I dare to execute orders on behalf of my father. How about you? The army has just arrived at Gaoping, and if it cannot strictly enforce military discipline, it may disturb the people. I hope Ji Bo will not refuse this important task, both for public and private."
