Sun Ce turned around and left, leaving only the people in the main hall. Huang Gai and the others were very happy, as it was their duty as military generals to conquer the world, while Zhang Zhao and the others looked sad and worried.
After Huang Gai and other generals had all left, more than a dozen civil servants could no longer bear to ask Zhang Zhao. Qin Song looked at Zhang Zhao and frowned and said: "My lord, I am afraid that he has made up his mind to conquer Jingzhou, Zibu."
Brother, what can you do?"
Zhang Zhao looked at the people around him who were all frowning and smiled bitterly: "What can I do? I can only send people to Yuzhang to inform Gong Jin about the matter and see if he can do anything? I am afraid that he is the only one in Jiangdong who can persuade the lord.
Already."
Qin Song nodded and said: "Yes, my lord has always listened to Gong Jin's advice. If Gong Jin can persuade my lord, it might be effective." After saying that, he shook his head and sighed: "It would be great if Zigang was here.
."
Qin Song's words made everyone around him stunned. Zhang Zhao was the first to react and nodded: "Yes, brother Zigang will definitely be able to stop the lord from conquering Jingzhou. Moreover, at this time, Jiangdong is also turbulent and undercurrents are surging. If brother Zigang is here,
It can also reduce a lot of burdens on me and others." After saying that, he looked at a few people and said, "I want to tell the lord to recruit brother Zizang back. What do you think?"
Zhang Hong, also known as Zigang, together with Zhang Zhao, were known as the two Zhangs in Jiangdong. Their talents were no less than Zhang Zhao. After Sun Ce unified Jiangdong, Zhang Hong went to Xudu to seek officials for Sun Ce. After Sun Ce was granted the title of Marquis of Wu, Zhang Hong stayed there.
As a supporter in Xudu, Cao Cao's secret countermeasures against Yuan Shao this time have been discovered by him. Jiangdong has secretly deployed troops and horses based on Zhang Hong's speculation. If Liu Qi hadn't happened to break into Jiangdong this time, Jiangdong would have already
After the deployment is completed, as long as Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the north start a war in Jiangdong, they can immediately mobilize troops and horses to take advantage of the situation when they both lose. This is why Zhang Zhao opposed Sun Ce's expedition to Jingzhou at this time.
After hearing Zhang Zhao's words, several people's eyes lit up and they nodded in agreement. If Zhang Zhao is famous in Jiangdong for his uprightness and uprightness, then Zhang Hong is famous for his wit, courage and eloquence. The one who can persuade Sun Ce in Jiangdong is Zhou Yu.
The other one is Zhang Hong.
Zhang Zhao thought of this and hurriedly went to see Sun Ce. The others also had their own opinions and left one after another.
Sun Ce, who returned to the backyard, walked towards Mrs. Wu's courtyard. In a few days, he would go on an expedition and he would need to spend more time with his mother in these two days. The matter of going on an expedition was not a whim on his part, but after careful consideration.
It was decided after that. As his mother said, he was not a person but a prince. What he did was watched by the whole Jiangdong. If his wife was kidnapped and no troops were sent, how could the people of Jiangdong believe it?
Sun Ce would avenge them when he was slaughtered. Why would the people of Jiangdong be loyal to him?
It was precisely because of this that he decided to send troops, not only to avenge his shame, but also to show his determination to protect Jiangdong and win over the people of Jiangdong. In addition, the situation in the north was already on the verge of breaking out. With this excuse, he could openly and openly increase troops to Lujiang to deal with the situation in the north at any time.
Even Zhou Yu would have agreed to this change.
Thinking that Sun Ce had entered Mrs. Wu's courtyard, Mrs. Wu was looking at Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang playing in the courtyard.
Sun Jian had five sons, and like Sun Jian, these sons were all extraordinary. Needless to say, the eldest son, Sun Ce, took the remaining soldiers and horses to pacify Jiangdong after Sun Jian's death. He was granted the title of Wu Hou and separatized Jiangdong, becoming a vassal. The second son, Sun Quan, also
Even though he was just over ten years old, he was witty, courageous and good at making decisions. He was good at everything except being a little narrow-minded. The third son, Sun Ling, was even more brave and very similar to Sun Ce. Before Sun Ce's death, Zhang Zhao and others recommended Sun Ling to succeed him.
Unexpectedly, Sun Ce let Sun Quan succeed him, and Sun Ling was assassinated when he was the governor of Danyang. The fourth son, Sun Kuang, was extraordinary in literary talent. He inherited Sun Jian's title at a young age and married Cao Cao's niece. However, he died young like Sun Ling, and the fifth son, Sun Lang, also
He was an extraordinary martial artist and served as a general in the army. However, he later made mistakes and was demoted to a commoner by Sun Quan and imprisoned for the rest of his life.
This time Mrs. Wu only brought Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang with her. The others stayed outside and were looked after by Mrs. Wu. Mrs. Wu was Sun Jian's wife, but she was not his wife but a side wife. Before she died, Mrs. Wu asked Sun Quan to take care of his mother.
She was also the later Wu Guotai. People in Jiangdong called Sun Jian's first wife, Sun Ce's mother, Mrs. Wu, and Sun Jian's side concubines, who were the mothers of Sun Shangxiang and Sun Lang, were called Mrs. Wu. Sun Ce, Sun Quan, Sun Ling, and Sun Kuang were all the same.
Mrs. Wu was born, and Sun Lang and Sun Shangxiang were both born to Mrs. Wu.
Seeing Sun Ce coming, Sun Quan and Sun Shangxiang hurriedly stopped playing and stepped forward to salute, saying, "I've met my brother."
Sun Ce nodded and then saluted Mrs. Wu: "Mother."
Mrs. Wu nodded and said nothing, but Sun Shangxiang who was standing aside ran over and looked at Sun Ce and said: "Brother, Liu Qi not only killed cousin Sun He but also robbed his sister-in-law. It's really damned. Brother, did you ask to go and teach Liu Qi a lesson?"
?Don’t forget to bring your sister with you, I’m very powerful now and can help you teach Liu Qi a lesson.”
Sun Shangxiang's words directly choked Sun Ce to speechlessness. He coughed a few times and said: "After girls are so naughty, they should learn more from female celebrities." There was nothing he could do about Sun Shangxiang, whether it was Mrs. Wu or Mrs. Wu.
Mrs. Wu always loved Sun Shangxiang and never criticized her.
After hearing Sun Ce's words, Sun Shangxiang's face lit up and he snorted: "I don't want to learn those things. I want to be a general like my father and brother."
Sun Shangxiang's words made everyone present laugh. Sun Ce laughed and said: "If you master martial arts, I will make you a general."
Hearing Sun Ce's words, Sun Shangxiang jumped up and said, "Brother, please don't keep your words." After saying that, he ran to Mrs. Wu and took Mrs. Wu's hand.
Brother’s words don’t mean anything.”
Mrs. Wu patted Sun Shangxiang's head lovingly and said, "Okay, I also want to see Xiang'er become a general."
Sun Quan on the side stepped forward and pulled Sun Shangxiang and said: "Sister, let's go to the garden to play." After saying that, he pulled Sun Shangxiang towards the garden.
After seeing the two people leaving Mrs. Wu, she looked at Sun Ce and said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Sun Ce came to sit next to Mrs. Wu and said, "Mother, I plan to personally conquer Jingzhou in a few days to avenge my father and resolve this matter."
Mrs. Wu nodded and sighed: "Since you have decided, go all out and do it. Don't be too arrogant like your father. I heard that there are two young generals in your personal guard named Lu Meng and Chen Wu.
You can take them with you on this expedition, and let them be your personal soldiers to protect your safety." After saying that, he tidied up Sun Ce's clothes and said, "Don't go out without someone following you. Remember, even if it's you,
Even those who are highly skilled in martial arts should bring their own soldiers to ensure they are safe. As long as they come back safely, it is considered as a filial piety."
Sun Ce nodded and said: "My child has taken note of it." He also admired Lu Meng and Chen Wu very much. Since the last time Sun He died in battle, he had intended to let them be his personal commanders. Although Sun He's martial arts
Not as good as him but still extraordinary, but still being killed already made him wary. Thinking of the same thing with his father's death, Sun Ce was secretly on guard.
Sun Ce spoke to Mrs. Wu for another while before getting up and leaving. When leaving, he doubled Mrs. Wu's bodyguards.
When he came to the front yard, he heard Zhang Zhao asking for an audience. Sun Ce also trusted Zhang Zhao and immediately let Zhang Zhao in.
When Zhang Zhao saw Sun Ce, he bowed and said: "My lord, the situation in the north has gradually become clear at this time. Zigang has no use in Xudu. How about letting him come back? Now Jiangdong also needs Zigang to come back to handle some things."
Sun Ce originally thought that Zhang Zhao came to persuade him to stop the army, but he didn't expect that it was Zhang Hong. Hearing what Zhang Zhao said, Sun Ce nodded and said: "That's right. If that's the case, then let Zigang come back. This time he conquered Jingzhou.
There is no military advisor, and Gong Jin is unable to escape in Yuzhang, so let Zigang take the post of military advisor."
Hearing Sun Ce's words, Zhang Zhao was also stunned. He wanted Zhang Hong to come back and persuade Sun Ce. Unexpectedly, Sun Ce directly asked Zhang Hong to serve as military advisor, but he still breathed a sigh of relief. Apart from Zhou Yu, Zhang Hong was proficient in the art of war and good at leading troops in Jiangdong.
, with Zhang Hong at Sun Ce's side, the army would not be defeated. Thinking of Zhang Zhao, he hurriedly bowed and said: "Promise." After saying this, he went to prepare.
