Chapter Twenty-six The tactic of alienation, an unavoidable conspiracy
Just when the princes were reveling,
Sun Jian was stationed in a camp elsewhere and received an uninvited guest.
Although Sun Jian was gathering the remaining soldiers at this moment,
And with the support of some other princes, we once again had an army of ten thousand people.
But compared to the Jiangdong soldiers who had followed him in the north and south in the past, they were not even the slightest bit worse...
And since being stabbed in the back by Yuan Shu,
Sun Jian could no longer trust any prince in his heart, even if it was Cao Cao who helped him,
Sun Jian was also cautious at this moment.
Anyway, he doesn’t want to be a pioneer anymore.
This is completely a thankless chore. As for Kuangfu Hanshi, judging from the current situation, it has become nothing more than a slogan.
Sun Jian, Chen Pu, Huang Gai and others were discussing what to do next in the Chinese army's tent.
Sudden,
The big tent was opened from the outside,
A handsome young general wearing bright silver armor walked in.
The person who came was none other than Sun Jian's eldest son, Sun Ce, known as the Little Overlord of Jiangdong.
Sun Ce walked to the tent, cupped his fists and said softly:
"Father, Dong Zhuo's envoy asked to see you. He said that he is an old friend of yours."
"Old friend?"
After Sun Jian heard Sun Ce's words, he couldn't help but be stunned.
But Sun Jian then said to Sun Ce in a stern tone:
"Bo Fu, have you forgotten why we came here?
Don’t you have any idea why Dong Zhuo’s envoy came?”
"But father..."
Sun Ce obviously has his own ideas,
He said to Sun Jian:
"But father,
We have fought for the Allied Forces through life and death, blowing up cities and building strongholds,
But how did the Yuan brothers treat us?
They seized my supplies of food, grass and weapons, causing our army to be almost completely wiped out.
Uncle Darong died tragically under the sword of Xiliang to protect us!
Father,
His Yuan brothers have done such chilling things, why should we sacrifice our lives for him?!"
Sun Jian did not refute, but just stared at Sun Ce deeply.
He knew that Sun Ce only told the facts that he wanted to say but didn't want to say.
Looking at this heroic and decisive son,
Sun Jian sighed helplessly and said:
"Bring him in."
When Sun Ce heard this, he looked happy and said, "Here!"
After a while,
Sun Ce led a scribe and returned.
After the scribe entered the military tent, he greeted Sun Jian with a smile:
"Brother Wentai, long time no see."
Sun Jian stared at Li Su's neck expressionlessly,
His smile was frozen as he looked at her, his scalp was numb and even his back was wet.
Suddenly, Sun Jian chuckled without a smile, and then asked:
"If you don't live happily under Dong Zhuo, why do you come to my place?"
Seeing that the dormant tiger Sun Jian finally spoke,
Li Su's tense nerves relaxed slightly.
A flattering smile appeared on his face and he replied:
"I came here on the orders of Prime Minister Su, but I have a big happy event that I want to tell the general about!"
"A happy event?" Sun Jian knew there was something wrong as soon as he heard it, but he still patiently continued to ask: "Tell me, what happy event does Dong Zhuo and I have?"
Seeing that Sun Jian was willing to listen,
Li Su couldn't help but feel a little sure in his heart.
In fact, he was most afraid that Sun Jian would take off his head without saying anything.
Since Sun Jian continues to talk, Li Su feels that with his sharp tongue, he will definitely be able to win over Sun Jian!
With confidence,
Li Su's originally slightly curved waist also straightened.
The smile on his face became more flattering and he said:
"Su once listened to the Prime Minister's words more than once in the Prime Minister's Mansion,
He said that the only person respected in this world is the general.
The only one I fear is the general!
This time the general was persecuted by the Yuan brothers, which resulted in the loss of troops and generals.
Since everyone is a victim of the Yuan family,
Therefore, the Prime Minister wanted to marry General Sun.
From then on, conflicts turned into friendship,
From now on, let’s work together to revive the Han Dynasty.
Isn’t this a happy event?”
Sun Jian remained silent.
This made Li Su think that Sun Jian was wavering in his heart.
Li Su felt a little happy, feeling that things might be very promising.
But just when he wanted to continue to persuade Sun Jian,
Sun Jian suddenly burst out laughing, and then shouted angrily: "Is Thief Dong trying to deceive my minions?"
Li Su's face changed instantly when he saw Sun Jian,
In an instant, I was so frightened that all my souls were dying,
In order to save one's life,
Li Su quickly poured out all his trump cards: "General, calm down!
The Prime Minister intended to betroth his daughter to General Sun Bofu.
As long as two families get married,
The Prime Minister will immediately report to the court,
Awarded to General Sun as Grand Sima of the Imperial Court, ranking among the Three Dukes!
and......"
Speaking of this, Li Su's waist bent down again, and cold sweat broke out on his back again.
"And... the Prime Minister will also tell the Emperor to make General Sun the governor of Jingzhou... Then Jingzhou..."
When Sun Jian heard this, he suddenly let out a cold "hum".
This sound,
Like a tiger's low and suppressed warning,
Ling Li Su could not continue speaking no matter what.
"General Sun...General Sun, spare your life, spare your life!"
"Li Su, I, Sun Jian, am the general of the Han Dynasty, not Dong Zhuo's puppet!"
Sun Jian's words made Li Su feel weak.
How could he still remember that he had a sharp tongue?
At this time, all he could do was beg for mercy: "Yes, yes... it's not Su, please spare Su's life from General Sun."
Sun Jian looked at Li Su who was so scared that he wet his pants and said coldly:
"I won't kill you,
Go back and tell Dong Zhuo,
Wash your neck and wait for me, Sun Jian, to chop off his head!"
When he heard that Sun Jian would not kill him, Li Su immediately thanked him profusely, turned around and ran out as fast as he could.
This damn place,
He, Li Su, didn't want to stay any longer, he was almost scared to death!
Until Li Su left,
Sun Ce then asked worriedly: "Father, you won't really let your child marry Dong Zhuo's daughter, will you?"
When Sun Jian heard this, he immediately laughed together with Chen Pu and others.
"Hahaha!"
"Young Master, you are so cute!"
"Then I'd like to congratulate Bo Fu!"
Sun Ce: "..."
After laughing for a while, Sun Jian said: "Dong Zhuo is just here to alienate you. How could I really let you marry his daughter?"
I heard that that guy actually came to create a divorce plan,
Sun Ce suddenly asked anxiously: "In that case, why did father kill Li Su in the first place? How can we explain to the coalition forces how he came and went?"
Sun Ce is not only powerful in martial arts, but his brain is not stupid either.
It's just that compared to his good gay friend Zhou Yu, he seems to be a reckless man.
Sun Jian sighed and said:
"This is also the vicious part of this plan,
In fact, regardless of whether Li Su enters my camp or not, this divorce plan has already been completed.
Regardless of whether Li Sujin entered my tent or not,
The other princes, especially the Yuan brothers, will definitely have doubts, and we will eventually be wary of the princes."
"Then why not just kill Li Su to prove my father's innocence?"
"This is a conspiracy. No matter whether we kill Li Su or not, the result will be the same." Chen Pu also sighed and said.
Sun Ce said this when he saw the calm and wise Chen Pu.
It’s really hard for me to swallow your bad breath, Sun Ce.
He clenched his white fists and said fiercely:
"Damn Dong Zhuo, one day I will personally take off your head!"
