Chapter 173 New Journey
"Thank you General!" Sun Ce received the promise and felt a little relieved. This thank you was considered sincere.
In any case, Yuan Shu did provide her with a platform. Otherwise, she would be a white person and had nothing to do with her. Not to mention how much effort it would take to start a family, she would probably not have come back if she only talked about her father's old subordinates.
Time is endless. Now if you waste time and want to start a business in the future, others may not give him the chance to start a business.
"Well... go down and prepare!" Yuan Shu had no intention of Sun Ce at this moment. She wanted to confirm whether this jade seal was true or false.
"General... Although Bo Fu has not read many books, he also knows the principle of being cautious. If you ask me to attack Jiangdong, please write a military order and allocate money and food so that your subordinates can go to war with confidence. Otherwise, you will be transferred to other places less than two days after the expedition, so what should you do?" Sun Ce said in embarrassment.
"You can't trust me?" Yuan Shu looked a little ugly. She was indeed a little bit, and she suddenly changed her mind while Sun Ce left and asked her to attack Guangling.
If Jiangdong is captured, as long as the way to go south is cut off, the river can be divided. However, Guangling is different. Even if you capture it, it doesn’t matter if you give it to Sun Ce. If you want to capture that kind of place, you can do it at any time.
To put it bluntly, even if you can't fight and continue to harass Guangling can't develop, you can still do it.
What is fighting in war is money and food. Guangling’s people’s livelihood is unstable and taxes cannot be raised. What development does Sun Ce use?
I didn't expect Sun Ce to be so alert... But thinking about it is true. After the precedent, anyone will be alert. His previous actions out of anger were obviously too hasty.
"I don't believe in the general, just to be on the safe side." Sun Ce also refused to give in.
"Okay, I'll write it!" Yuan Shu was not afraid either. He had other ideas anyway, so he wouldn't let Sun Ce have a good time anyway.
He simply wanted to write paper and write, and then threw it to Sun Ce directly. The latter did not dislike it, so he took it and looked at it, confirmed that there was no problem, and then got up and said goodbye and left.
It was not until this time that Yuan Shu picked up the jade seal and looked carefully. After solemn confirmation, she determined that this was indeed the true imperial jade seal, a symbol of orthodoxy!
For a moment, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep, and I made a fuss all night...
When she got up, she asked someone to ask about Sun Ce's situation. Only then did she know that the other party had gone to collect money, food and supplies early in the morning, and then she didn't even leave and set out towards Liyang.
"I walked quite fast...well, I knew that Sun Ce was not familiar with this little tiger." Yuan Shu shook his head, "It's just that you want to get rid of me, but it's not that easy!"
After all, Sun Ce now has nominal vassal and her subordinates.
It was similar to Cao Cao. He used the Yellow Turbans to attack Dongjun and then became the governor of Yanzhou. However, in name, she was also a subordinate of Yuan Shao. The two had always maintained a subordinate relationship, one responsible for going north and the other responsible for going south.
Speaking of this, Yuan Shu was still a little unhappy because Xiangnan was originally her goal. In other words, Sun Ce Xiangnan's development actually happened to have a conflict with her interests...
But it doesn't matter, she has a backup plan. Even if Sun Ce conquered the four counties in Jiangnan, he would never let her have a good time!
"Other person's bath..." On the other hand, Sun Ce may not know Yuan Shu's plan, but she was a little decadent at this moment. She had just returned and had not had time to take a bath, but she was about to start fighting again.
"There are no good bathhouses in Shouchun," Zhu Xin persuaded, "It's better to arrive in Liyang early. There are natural hot springs there, which makes it more comfortable to soak."
"That's all..." Sun Ce agreed, but his emotions were still not very high.
"Bo Fu, be happy." Zhou Yu comforted, "not only can we have money, food and materials that can support for about three years, but as long as we cross Jiangdong, the four counties of Jiangdong will be our territory!"
"I just didn't expect that Yuan Shu would agree so thoroughly. Can't she see that this thing is not as valuable as she imagined?" Lu Fan was a little worried.
"We must definitely plot against us." Zhou Yu replied. Her brain was redirected faster than ordinary people with skills. "The biggest possibility is to arrange for her confidants to serve as local prefects and commanders."
"Bo Fu's attack on Chen Wen and Lu Kang before, Yuan Shu once said that he would grant her the prefect of Jiujiang and the prefect of Lujiang to her, but she refused... Who can guarantee that Yuan Shu would not make mistakes this time and arrange his own people?" Lu Su echoed.
To be honest, Sun Ce during this period was much better than in history. Zhu Xin looked at everyone's analysis every word and every word, and felt a little moved.
In history, Sun Ce had only one thousand people's supplies during this period. At most, thousands of people came to join the road. Assuming that there were only two thousand soldiers in it, that is, Sun Ce had only three thousand soldiers in front and behind, or new soldiers.
Now, it is different, including the Fire Head Army and the Bowmen. Sun Ce had a total of 7,000 soldiers and also required 500 Yuan Shu's military bows. The original 200 bow team could be expanded to 500. There were 2,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry.
If there was no house for everything in this era, there might be about 10,000 auxiliary soldiers and civilians. In short, this time, it would be a huge momentum to attack Jiangdong with 20,000 troops.
Zhou Yu and Lu Su, the two of them originally defected after 197, now they defected in advance. Liu Ye, who was originally not under Sun Ce, is now under his command.
In terms of military generals, Zulang, who was a powerful general, joined, Chen Wu and Ling Cao were also in the army, plus the four generals of Sun Jian's old subordinates, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Han Dang and Zu Mao, were all in hand.
Among the second-tier talents, there are Erqiao, Deng Dang, Lu Meng and Zhu Ran who are currently young, Sun He, Qin Song and Chen Duan.
In addition, some third-tier talents and a force framework have been gradually built.
The group arrived in Hefei and was about to leave, but they didn't want to join one after another. At first, they thought it was Yuan Shu who regretted it and sent someone to intercept it. But they didn't think it was like that, each wave of hundreds of people was too small, and there was not enough food to deliver it!
After asking carefully, I found out that it was the young people who came to join Sun Ce Daming. They were all young people with ideals and ambitions in Jiujiang, Yuzhang and Lujiang counties.
After further inquiring, I realized that the Lu family of Wujun and the Qiao family of Lujiang spread Sun Ce's reputation everywhere, and their lenient and kindness of employed people in an unconventional manner. Many people who have a bad background or are not from high background but plan to gain a career will try their luck. Among them are Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai, who led two thousand young and strong people to join.
