Chapter 880: Farewell Liu Wen Farewell
After Liu Ba and Wen Chou spent one night in Chenxian, they left the next day.
Liu Ba and the others came to resign with Sun Ce and the others, "General Sun, the two of us are leaving today, so I will leave here, and there will be a period later!" ”
When Sun Ce saw it, he said a few polite words, "Mr. and General Wen really don't stay in Chenxian for a long time?" ”
Although Sun Ce also knew that Liu Ba was definitely leaving, polite words were also necessary, he was a famous man in Jingxiang, and he was also the envoy of Liu Bei's side, and he was a guest, so it was impossible for Sun Ce to snub Liu Ba and Wen Chou. If you don't say anything and send people away, then you may have to be told by Jingxiang people that Sun Bofu has neglected the guests.
For Sun Ce, although he was born as a military general, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know anything, at least Sun Ce himself can be said to be such a prince with a lot of ideas. He even knows what it means to be terrible, so he ......
Of course, he expected the two of them to resign to him, after all, Liu Bei and himself were actually similar, they were both more eager to form an alliance with each other, and then discuss other matters-
When Liu Ba heard this, he just smiled, of course he knew that Lu Dao and Sun Ce were just polite words, and he didn't know that Lu Dao himself and Wen Chou, no matter what, it was impossible to stay.
So at this time, I heard Liu Ba say, "Thank you General Sun for your kindness." Thank you very much for your hospitality. However, 'there is no banquet in the world', and now the next two are going to leave and return to Lingling, and maybe there will be a chance to meet the general later! ”
Wen Chou was also an arch at this time. He didn't say anything, after all, he also knew that even if he was tied up with a hundred, he couldn't be compared with Mr. Zichu, he was a general, but he was not good at words, and he was good at this.
Sun Ce saw that the two of them were like this. Naturally, he didn't say much, so at this time he said to everyone, "Everyone. Let's send Mr. Zichu and General Wen Chou together! ”
"No!"
Everyone agreed in unison, and for them, sending these two people would not be lost. Liu Ba is a famous person in Jingxiang. Wen Chou is a famous general in the world. It can be said that the two of them are almost much more famous than the few people here except for Zhou Yu, and they are also the messengers of their allies, so of course they want to send it, or it doesn't make people feel that they don't understand the etiquette-
Outside Chenxian County, Sun Ce and his subordinates personally sent Liu Ba and Wen Chou out of the city. As for the farther places, there is no need to send them anymore, there is no need. This is actually about the same, Liu Ba is just a famous man in Jingxiang. is not a great talent in the world, as for Wen Chou's ability, it is not bad, but he has not been seen much by Sun Ce. In fact, in Sun Ce's eyes, he prefers Zhou Yu to be like this, rather than a brave man who blindly fights for Zhilu Dao.
Liu Ba looked at this and said that it was almost the same, "General Sun, everyone, the so-called 'sending you a thousand miles, you must say goodbye in the end', don't say goodbye today, we will have a date later, farewell!" ”
Wen Chou also arched his hand to everyone, "Farewell!" ”
And Sun Ce and everyone were like this, arching his hand and saying, "Take care of the two of you all the way!" ”
Liu Ba smiled, "General Lao is concerned, but don't forget the agreement between the general and my lord!" ”
Sun Ce also smiled, "Don't worry, sir, in four days, I will be there!" ”
Liu Ba nodded when he heard this, and then got on the war horse with Wen Chou, and went away on horseback-
As for what Liu Ba just said, the agreement between Sun Ce and Liu Bei, this has to be said about what he said to Sun Ce before.
Of course, this is still discussed by Liu Bei and his subordinates, that is, after forming an alliance with Sun Ce's Jiangdong Army, the two of them will definitely meet and meet, so as to study the next step, and both sides will go like this. After all, the matter of forming an alliance can be done by subordinates, but after the alliance is formed, how the two sides want to do it, it is best to ask the lords of both sides to discuss, and whether it is Liu Bei or Sun Ce, in fact, both of them still think so.
Liu Bei said simply, after the alliance, within four days, they arrived at Jiuyi Mountain, and the lords of the two sides met here. After Sun Ce heard this, he thought for a while, glanced at Zhou Yu again, and after getting Zhou Yu's signal, he immediately agreed.
For Sun Ce to agree to his lord's proposal to meet in Jiuyi Mountain so quickly, Liu Ba was indeed not surprised by this, in his opinion, it should be like this-
To say that this Nine Doubts Mountain, it is definitely a relatively special place, why do you say that, what is it special about, this is mainly its geographical location.
The place of Jiuyi Mountain is under the jurisdiction of Lingling County, but in fact, this place is at the junction of the three counties. As for which three counties they are, they are Lingling and Guiyang counties in Jingzhou, plus Cangwu County in Jiaozhou, and Jiuyi Mountain is at the junction of these three counties.
It belongs to Yingdao County of Lingling County, so its north and northwest sides are the boundaries of Lingling. To the east of it, to the northeast, is the boundary of Gyeyang-gun. As for its south, of course, it is the boundary of Cangwu County in Jiaozhou. So I have to say that Liu Bei and they did find a good place to meet where both parties could rest assured.
Because Jiuyi Mountain is basically in Lingling, and now Liu Bei occupies Lingling, so of course it has an advantage. However, because its land belongs to the junction of the three counties, for Sun Ce, he has a lot of advantages in the Jiangdong Army. At least Jiaozhou and Guiyang County are his territory now, so can he still be afraid of Liu Bei?
Not to mention Liu Bei, he wouldn't have made any moves, after all, what is his reputation in the world. Sun Ce, Zhou Yu, they all know the way. But if you really want to take precautions, as long as you send troops from Lingling and Cangwu to ambush near Jiuyi Mountain, then everything will be fine, after all, your own men and horses will definitely surpass his Liu Bei's soldiers and horses, so Sun Ce is afraid of Liu Bei.
And Liu Bei is not an enemy to his own side now. Rather, allies. In the same way, isn't it the same for him Liu Xuande. Therefore, for the time being, the two sides will coexist peacefully, but they will not fight each other. Moreover, whether it is Sun Ce or Zhou Yu, they can understand that since Liu Bei and his people can set the meeting place in Jiuyi Mountain. Then you can see some of the sincerity of his people. So there's no need to worry too much.
So that's it, Liu Ba had already told Sun Ce that his lord was going to meet him, and then Sun Ce also agreed, and said that four days later, he would meet Liu Bei in Jiuyi Mountain.
In fact, it didn't take four days to go from Chenxian County to Jiuyi Mountain, but it was not because Liu Ba and the two returned to Lingling and finished talking to Liu Bei. Can he go to the Nine Doubts Mountain, so four days. But that's enough.
To say that the Quanling of Lingling County is far from Chenxian County of Guiyang County, it is really, not too far. But the distance between them and the Nine Doubts Mountain is far from the distance between the two places. Jiuyi Mountain is in the southeast of Quanling, and in the southwest of Chenxian County, the distance between the two places from Jiuyi Mountain is about the same-
Of course, Sun Ce would not forget such an important matter, so after Liu Ba reminded him, he immediately assured Liu Ba, and then Liu Ba got on the horse and left Chenxian.
Sun Ce saw that the backs of Liu Ba and Wen Chou were getting smaller and smaller, and at this time he said to everyone, "Everyone, let's all go back!" Depart the day after tomorrow and head to Nine Doubts Mountain! ”
"No!"
Of course, everyone also knew about the agreement between their lord and Liu Bei. As for the place of Jiuyi Mountain, of course those who know Lu Dao understand the particularity of its place, but those who don't know Lu Dao have also seen the map before, so they can be regarded as having an understanding of its place, and they also understand that since Liu Bei's side can choose the place to meet with their lord guild, it does show their sincerity, so for the generals of the Jiangdong Army, they are indeed very satisfied with Liu Bei's actions.
After all, they will be allies in the future, so it must be indispensable to cooperate with each other and help each other, the so-called is mutually beneficial, and it is beneficial to both parties, but it must be done well-
Sun Ce returned to the Taishou Mansion, and he let everyone disperse, after all, everyone still has everyone's business. As a result, as soon as he returned, he quickly reported that there was an urgent military situation ahead.
Sun Ce frowned when he heard this, the emergency military situation ahead, for his own side, the emergency military situation ahead, that is, Zhang Liao's war in Jiangxia, it can't be Jiangdong, he Cao Mengde will definitely not be so unwise now, at this time, he will invade Jiangdong, it's not that he can't do such a thing, but Cao Cao He won't do that kind of thing that he is not too sure of.
At this time, Sun Ce was sitting in front of the desk, and he said to the fast horse who delivered the message, "Take it to me!" ”
It just so happened that Kuaima also took out Zhang Liao's handwritten letter at this time, and he immediately handed it over to Sun Ce. And Sun Ce unfolded it like this, and it was indeed a handwritten letter from Zhang Liao, who fought against Ma Chaoliangzhou Army in Qichun.
After reading the letter, Sun Ce put the letter on the case, and then said to Kuaima, "Okay, you can retreat first." ”
"No!" It's time to go down—
After the fast horse left, Sun Ce commanded, "Someone! ”
"Lord!"
The Jiangdong sergeant entered the house, and then hurriedly gave Sun Ce a salute.
"Go and invite Mr. Gongjin here!"
"No!"
To say that in front of his soldiers, Sun Ce still called Zhou Yu Mr. Gongjin, which can be regarded as letting Zhou Yu have more authority in front of Jiangdong soldiers. Zhou Yu is a great talent in both civil and military affairs, wearing a helmet and crown, he is a military general, so wearing the clothes of a Confucian scholar, he is a scribe.
The soldiers took the order and left, while Sun Ce waited for Zhou Yu's arrival in the house. For him, he has long been accustomed to it, and he may not necessarily discuss everything with his subordinates, but it is definitely indispensable to discuss with Zhou Yu, such as the previous matter with Liu Ba, and then the current situation-
Zhou Yu came after a while, although Zhou Yu also had his own things to do, but nothing was as important as his own lord's call. And he also knew that he had just left for a while, and his lord sent soldiers to find him, so there must be something big about it. As for what it is, it is not difficult to guess, it is nothing more than a war with Liu Xuande, or Jiangxia, or Jiangdong, and other than that, there is nothing else.
Liu Xuande's alliance is basically excluded, after all, he just sent Liu Ba, Liu Zichu and Wen Chou away, and his lord let everyone disperse, and no one stayed, which means that there is no big problem with the alliance. As for guarding against Liu Bei or something, it's all a trivial matter, but it's not worth mentioning.
Then there is only the war in Jiangxia and the matter of Jiangdong, but Zhou Yu also immediately ruled out the matter of Jiangdong, after all, Jiangdong is still stable now, except for Cao Mengde, his biggest enemy is Shanyue, but at this time, the two sides will basically not find trouble. But if you're really looking for something, it can only be Shanyue's gang, but your lord has already left someone to deal with them, so there shouldn't be any big problem, unless all of them come to invade Jiangdong, but is this possible-
So Zhou Yu knew in his heart that it was not Liu Xuande's business, let alone Jiangdong's business, so it could only be the Jiangxia War. (To be continued......)
