One hundred and thirtieth chapter oil and salt do not enter
"Dong dong dong dong!"
The sound of war drums gradually sounded, and the entire Jiangdong Army in khaki armor lined up outside the city. Commander Sun Jian and his generals lined up in front of the military formation, looking proudly at Fancheng in front. Zu Maoxiao on the far right
Hehehe said to Huang Gai beside him: "Gongfu, do you think the Fancheng prefect was so frightened that he immediately opened the city and surrendered when he saw our powerful soldiers?"
"Hahahaha!" Before Huang Gai could answer, Sun Jian looked up to the sky and smiled after hearing Zu Mao's words, and said: "If he chooses to surrender, it means he is wise! Otherwise, when we Jiangdong warriors break through his city wall, what will happen to them?
He is not so polite!" When Sun Jian said this, his face was full of confidence. Not only Sun Jian, but also everyone from General Cheng Pu to the ordinary Jiangdong Army soldiers below had the same look on their faces.
of confidence.
It is not without reason that Sun Jian and others are so confident. In Jingzhou, except for the 20,000 direct Xiangyang army under Wang Rui of Xiangyang, and Yuan Shu, who has just emerged in Nanyang recently, the soldiers and horses in other cities and counties generally do not exceed 3,000.
.Even Nanjun, an important town second only to Xiangyang, has only more than 10,000 people at most, half of whom are naval forces! Although Sun Jian's soldiers and horses only have more than 5,000 people, under Sun Jian's training, they are already elite.
It exceeds the ordinary Jingzhou soldiers and horses. This Fancheng is not as important as Xiangyang and Nanjun, so how many defenders will there be? Sun Jian firmly believes that as long as he gives the order, he can capture Fancheng in less than half an hour!
Sun Jian always had a loud voice, and at this moment, he was commanding troops and horses with great pride, and his voice was loud. Although they were still some distance away from the city wall, Sun Jian's words were transmitted to the top of the city without hesitation. For
Sun Jian was so arrogant that the generals on the top of the city couldn't hold it any longer. Zhou Cang immediately swore a curse word and was about to go out of the city to fight with a big sword. However, he was scolded by Huang Zhong, not that Huang Zhong
Zhong can really bear this tone, but now that Luo Yang is here, how can they make their own decisions?
Seeing that all the generals turned their attention to him, Luo Yang also smiled faintly and said: "Since Grand Administrator Sun wants to fight with us so much, how can we not accompany him to the end? Wen Qian! You and I have three thousand troops.
, I and all the generals are fighting with you, you go and meet this Grand Administrator Sun!"
Luo Yang actually sent Le Jin, which surprised everyone. Not to mention that Le Jin was the least senior among the generals. Judging from Le Jin's speech at the meeting a few days ago, he was the only one among the generals.
Advice for peace. Now that we are going to fight, why shouldn't we send Le in? Isn't Luo Yang worried that this battle will be lost?
Different from everyone's surprised expressions, Le Jin was just stunned for a moment, and then he clasped his fists at Luo Yang and shouted: "General, take your orders!" After saying that, he went straight to the top of the city to mobilize troops and prepare to leave the city to meet the enemy.
!
"Lord!" Seeing Le Jin leaving, Wenpin hurriedly stepped forward to admonish: "Is it inappropriate to send General Le to fight? Why not let the last general fight for General Le!" When Wenpin mentioned this, Gan
Ning and others also came forward to give advice.
Luo Yang just smiled faintly. If he sent guys like Wenpin to the battle, he would have to fight with Sun Jian to death. Luo Yang's move was because Le Jin did not advocate falling out with Sun Jian and wanted to come and fight in front of the battle later.
It's not that he has any sense of propriety. Secondly, Luo Yang also wanted to try Le Jin's skills and see what level this future five-son general is now! Immediately, Luo Yang waved his hand and said: "No need to say any more! You guys also
Get ready, I just said that I want to hold the battle for Wen Qian, so you can just follow me out of the city! Fengxiao, I will leave this city to you, is that okay?"
Luo Yang assigned Le Chu to fight. In the entire city, Guo Jia was probably the only one who did not react. It seemed that he had expected Luo Yang to make such an arrangement. After hearing what Luo Yang said, Guo Jia nodded gently and said with a smile:
"Lord, just don't worry!"
With Guo Jia's words, Luo Yang was naturally relieved. When he turned around and walked down the city, Gan Ning and others first looked at Huang Zhong helplessly. Huang Zhong was now the commander-in-chief of the army, second only to Luo Yang.
Character. However, Huang Zhong ignored the generals at all and just followed Luo Yang. Huang Zhong could not count on him. Gan Ning and others could only give up persuading Luo Yang and hurriedly followed.
Go up.
With a creak, the city gate slowly opened, and Le Jin slowly poured out of the city gate with three thousand brave soldiers. Seeing soldiers and horses coming out of the city gate, Sun Jian and others were a little surprised, and Sun Jian laughed.
He said to the generals on his left and right: "Look, this Fancheng prefect is quite courageous! He actually dares to go out of the city to fight! Later we will have to..." Before Sun Jian could finish his words, he was cut off in the middle, because
He saw thousands of people pouring out of the gate of Fancheng, which was beyond his expectation.
Huang Gai also widened his eyes, looking at the brave soldiers arraying in front, and exclaimed in disbelief: "What's going on? Why are there so many soldiers and horses in Fancheng?"
"Damn it!" Sun Jian swore and cursed ferociously: "Wang Rui, that old man! We have all been fooled by him! He clearly wants us to come here to fight!" Sun Jian is not a fool, he will do it right away.
After understanding the joints, the problem is that Sun Jian really can't back down now, otherwise, both Sun Jian's reputation and the morale of the Jiangdong Army will be greatly affected. This time Sun Jian plans to go to Chenliu to participate in the alliance.
If he retreats without fighting here and waits until he reaches Chenliu, he will be underestimated by all the princes! I am afraid Wang Rui has just calculated this and is forcing Sun Jian to fight here.
.
Of course, this does not mean that Sun Jian is the kind of person who insists on saving face and suffering. If Luo Yang mobilizes all the troops in the city at this moment, I am afraid that Sun Jian will retreat immediately without saying a word. He knows that he cannot win but still fights hard.
That is not bravery, but stupidity! It is precisely because Luo Yang has only sent 3,000 troops now, which is smaller than Sun Jian's Jiangdong Army in number, that Sun Jian has the idea of desperate.
Immediately, Sun Jian gritted his teeth and shouted: "Never mind! Demou! Let's go! Break this hard bone first, and next time we will go to that old man Wang Rui to settle the score!" After saying that, Sun Jian directly pulled out his ancestral weapon.
Armed with the ancient ingot sword and the four generals Cheng Pu, they rode forward. Sun Jian did not directly lead his army forward, but he also held a glimmer of hope in his heart to see if he could frighten the opponent first.
At this moment, Le Jin was holding an iron spear. Although when he fought with Luo Yang's soldiers before, Le Jin used a single sword, but now he is fighting on horseback, and Le Jin is good at using long spears! Le Jin saw Sun Jian
The others led the troops towards this side, but they still kept expressions on their faces. They stepped forward on horseback, clasped their fists at Sun Jian in front of them and shouted: "I am Fancheng garrison captain Le Jin! I have met Sun Taishou! I don't know.
Grand Admiral Sun leads the army to my city of Fan, what do you want to do?"
Although they haven't fought yet, Le Jin's calmness alone made Sun Jian secretly praise him. However, now that the two armies were facing each other, there was no way Sun Jian could praise the enemy general in front of the battle. Even if he was facing Le Jin
Jin shouted: "It turns out to be General Le. I came here today on the orders of Mr. Wang, the governor of Jingzhou, to ask for military rations! Here is Mr. Wang's receipt! I think General Le will not embarrass me and wait.
?" With that said, Sun Jian took out Wang Rui's receipt from his pocket. In Sun Jian's heart, he very much wanted Le Jin to agree to his request.
"This old fox!" When Luo Yang, who was holding the battle at the back, heard Sun Jian's words, although he couldn't see clearly the contents of the voucher, he also knew that the voucher was not fake. It was obvious that Sun Jian would lead his troops here.
Wang Rui was causing trouble. Gan Ning, who was behind Luo Yang, heard Sun Jian mention Wang Rui's name, a red light flashed in his eyes, and he almost couldn't help but stepped forward to fight Sun Jian!
Le Jin, however, was not moved at all, and shouted to Sun Jian in an unassuming manner: "Prefect Sun! This military ration was awarded to us by the imperial court for the needs of the defenders of Fancheng. This is the military regulations set by the emperor at that time. Even if you are the governor,
Even though you are here in person, you have no right to touch the military rations without permission! Therefore, I apologize for the general’s request for not being able to agree to the request from Grand Administrator Sun! Please come back, Grand Administrator Sun!”
"Unbridled!" Sun Jian was said by Le Jin, but he couldn't lose his dignity. Although what Le Jin said was tenable according to national law, the question is, where is this army really used in various places now?
Keep the regulations in mind. Not to mention military rations, even the mobilization of troops and horses are not always in accordance with the wishes of each prince. Which prince is so full that he goes to ask the court for instructions. Seeing the other party does not
In cooperation, Sun Jian's face suddenly darkened, he pointed at Le Jin and shouted: "You are just a little captain, but you dare to speak to me like this. I, the mighty Marquis Wucheng, do you still want to listen to you?
Isn’t the admonition enough?”
When Sun Jian moved out his own title, it was clear that he wanted to use his official position to suppress Le Jin. The title of Marquis of Wucheng was obtained by Sun Jian for his meritorious service in pacifying Ou Xing and other rebels when he took office as the governor of Changsha a few years ago.
It was because of this title that Sun Jian was able to stand out in Jingzhou. Even Wang Rui, the Cai family and the Kuai family did not dare to do anything to Sun Jian.
It's a pity that Sun Jian met Le Jin today. As for Sun Jian, Le Jin was simply indifferent. He still had the dead look on his face and shouted: "Although Grand Administrator Sun is the Marquis of Wucheng, he is
Changsha Prefect! Although the last general is just a captain, he is an officer of the Fancheng garrison! The last general will be the Fancheng garrison, and he will be the first to be ordered by the Fancheng prefect! Sun Taishou has a noble status, but he has no authority to order the last general.
Go ahead and do it! Fancheng’s prefect should decide what to do with this Fancheng military ration! Prefect Sun has no right to interfere!”
