The Great Thief of the Three Kingdoms, save Mrs. Du at the beginning

"Is Sun Jian going to join me?"

Luoyang, in the palace of Prince Qin.

Dong Zhuo exclaimed, looking at Fang Pu in shock.

In the main hall, Li Ru, Li Que, Guo Si, Niu Fu, Dong Yue, Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, Ma Teng, Han Sui and others also looked at Cheng Pu in surprise.

Cheng Pu did not hesitate and said to Dong Zhuo:

"King Qin, the governor of Changsha is now outside Yique Pass, leading an army of [-] people to join us!"

Cheng Pu's words were heard loudly, but Dong Zhuo and the generals were still in disbelief.

That's the Jiangdong Tiger, isn't it in Changsha, under Liu Biao's command? Why did you come to join them?

Li Ru frowned and said:

"Sun Jian is the governor of Changsha and is under the rule of Jingzhou. No matter what, it is impossible for Sun Jian to join us, right? And Sun Jian's eldest son is the adopted son of King Wu, right?"

When Cheng Pu faced Li Ru's question, he didn't panic and said:
  "Liu Biao did win over my lord as General of Zhennan, Governor of Changsha County, and gave him the title of Marquis of Shaoyang. However, my lord looked down upon Liu Biao's Xiangyang court, and even looked down on Jingzhou Changsha. Changsha is located in a remote place far away from the Central Plains. My Lord himself He won't be nostalgic, and Liu Biao is a man who guards the city, and he is not enterprising at all."

"My lord, if my lord is Liu Biao, he will definitely support Liu Xie and order the noble families and clan forces in the world to attack the King of Qin!"

"It's just a pity that after Liu Biao supported Liu Xie to ascend the throne, he did nothing. He only cared about eating, drinking and having fun all day long, and hooked up with the Jingzhou family."

"Therefore, Liu Biao is naturally not worthy of our Lord's help!"

"As for King Wu, he is naturally the adoptive father of my lord's biological son. However, it does not mean that my lord will submit to King Wu just because his biological father is King Wu."

When Cheng Pu faced Li Ru's questions, he seemed neither humble nor overbearing, and refuted them one by one. And it showed a sense of ambition for Sun Jian.

In the main hall, Dong Zhuo suddenly felt happy when he heard what Cheng Pu said.

Liu Biao was a man who defended the city and was not enterprising at all. These words immediately made Dong Zhuo feel happy.

Although he ascended to the throne of Qin, Dong Zhuo was still worried that Liu Biao would suddenly ascend and lead troops to attack Luoyang.

However, as Cheng Pu said, he never waited for Liu Biao's attack.

Even now, they all heard that Xiangyang was going to raise troops to attack them.

"Haha, okay, that's right. Sun Jian and Sun Wentai are a fierce tiger. How can Liu Biao be worthy of being the leader of that Wentai!"

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, but it was because Sun Jian was very happy to come to vote.

Dong Zhuo also participated in the Yellow Turban Uprising, so he had seen Sun Jian's bravery.

Now that Sun Jian has come to invest, Dong Zhuo is even more happy. This is equivalent to having one more general!

Dong Zhuo is happy.

Li Ru on the side still frowned and looked at Cheng Pu with suspicion.

Because, no matter how you say it, it is a bit strange for Sun Jian to come to Dong Zhuo and come to Luoyang.

"If Sun Jian comes to join me, the King of Qin, will he be willing to show his [-] troops to the King of Qin's command?"

Suddenly, Li Ru spoke and asked Cheng Pu.

Li Ru's question rang out, and Dong Zhuo and all the generals were stunned.

Cheng Pu was also startled, but his expression suddenly changed the next moment.

"What does King Qin mean by this? My lord Sun Jian has come to surrender, and you want to accept my lord's troops? What kind of logic is this?"

"My lord is here to pursue his future, not to be treated as a sinner or a puppet. If Luoyang does not accept my lord, my lord has said that my lord will immediately lead his troops and then go to Youzhou to join King Wu."

"Haha, the world is so big, where can't we go? Then Liu Biao recruited my lord to be the general of Zhennan, the governor of Changsha, and gave him the title of Marquis of Shaoyang. But my lord didn't even look down on me. When he came to you, he actually wanted to take me as his main soldier. horse?"

"Hehe, goodbye!"

Cheng Pu was furious, shouted coldly, and walked out immediately.

"This...this, Wenyou, what are you talking about? Why don't you push such a fierce general out without accepting him?"

"Quickly stop General Cheng Pu!"

As soon as Dong Zhuo saw that Cheng Pu was leaving, he immediately became angry and said to Li Ru, and at the same time he hurriedly recruited generals to stop Cheng Pu.

Whoa!
  Guo Si, Niu Fu, Dong Yue, Duan Xuan, Hu Zhen, Ma Teng and other generals all stepped forward and grabbed Cheng Pu with a smile.

"General Cheng Pu, don't be angry."

"If you have anything to say, please tell me."

"King Qin didn't say anything."

……

There were sounds of comfort one after another, and Cheng Pu was pulled back by the Xiliang generals again.

Cheng Pu's face was still ugly. He looked at Dong Zhuo and said:

"What does King Qin mean by this?"

"General Cheng Pu, don't be angry. I didn't say not to accept Sun Wentai. Sun Wentai is a fierce general. It's too late for me to invite him, so how can I push him out?" Dong Zhuo said with a smile.

At this time, Li Ru stopped talking.

Just as Dong Zhuo said, if Sun Jian is such a powerful general, if they don't recruit him, how can they push it to the enemy?

However, Li Ru still felt uneasy about taking refuge in Sun Jian.

Cheng Pu looked much better after hearing Dong Zhuo's words. However, Cheng Pu still said to Dong Zhuo:
  "Since the King of Qin has decided to recruit my lord, let's talk about the treatment. My lord comes to Luoyang to pursue his future. As long as the King of Qin treats him well, my lord has said that he will charge into the battle for the King of Qin."

Dong Zhuo had a smile on his face after hearing Cheng Pu's words, and even Li Ru looked at Cheng Pu.

Cheng Pu didn't hesitate and said directly:
  "My lord has said that the Xiangyang court will grant my lord the title of General of Zhennan, governor of Changsha County, and the title of Marquis of Shaoyang, including Luoyang. I will mainly conquer General Nan, Marquis of Wu, and enfeoff Wu County. In addition, Luoyang Mansion House With five seats and a hundred maids, the King of Qin needs to supply food and fodder for an army of [-] people!"

As soon as Cheng Pu opened his mouth, the lion opened his mouth, causing everyone in the hall to be shocked immediately.

Dong Zhuo's face turned gloomy, and all the Xiliang generals also looked ugly.

General Zhengnan, Marquis of Wu, the fiefdom of Wu County, five mansions in Luoyang, hundreds of maids, and they were even needed to supply food and grass for the [-]-strong army! !

The general who conquered the south was one of the four generals who conquered the south.

In addition, the Marquis of Wu, the fiefdom of Wu County, is the Marquis of the County.

The land of a county is regarded as a feudal lord.

Isn't this a lion's big mouth?
  Dong Zhuo and all the Xiliang generals looked unhappy.

However, Li Ru's originally gloomy expression suddenly relaxed.

Yes, in Li Ru's view, Sun Jian's defection was definitely a bit strange.

But that doesn't mean that there is no possibility of Sun Jian sincerely joining him.

That is, Sun Jian has a plan.

Sun Jian had a plan, so it would be normal for Sun Jian to seek refuge with him.

But now, Sun Jian wants to be crowned a prince and become a general, and he wants to be a winner in life, which makes Li Ru feel relieved a lot.

Li Ru smiled, cupped his hands to Dong Zhuo and said:

"Father-in-law, Confucianism believes that Sun Wentai has a true temperament and is a fierce general. My father-in-law should agree with Sun Wentai's request. He should even increase the rewards. Only if his father-in-law gets more awards, will Sun Wentai think that only his father-in-law is wise in the world?" host!"

After a pause, Li Ru continued:

"Wu County is the land where Liu Yao was pastored in Yangzhou. Now it is not in the hands of my father-in-law. What if the entire Yangzhou is given to Sun Wentai?"  "Others are not a big problem. I have an additional general in my father-in-law's hands. Wouldn't it be a big deal? earn!"

Li Ru spoke, and when he spoke, the people in the hall were stunned.

Cheng Pu looked at this gentle guy in surprise.

Li Ru's attitude has changed?

Dong Zhuo had worked with Li Ru for many years and immediately understood the meaning of what Li Ru said.

Only with more seals would Sun Wentai think that he, Dong Zhuo, is the only one in the world who is the wise master!
  Undoubtedly, Li Ru meant that as long as he granted enough titles, it would be impossible for Sun Jian to betray him!

Dong Zhuo opened his mind!
  Yes, Wu County is the land where Liu Yao was pastored in Yangzhou. Now that it is not in the hands of Dong Zhuo, what if the entire Yangzhou is granted to Sun Wentai?

"Haha, don't worry, General Cheng Pu. Sun Wentai is a fierce general. Naturally, I will not treat him badly. I will personally report to Your Majesty and request General Sun Jian to be granted the title of General of Chariots and Cavalry, Marquis of Wu, the title of Wu Commandery, and five residences in Luoyang. , hundreds of maids, providing food and fodder for the thirty thousand army!"

Dong Zhuo opened his mouth and came.

Cheng Pu and the Xiliang generals were shocked.

The Chariot and Cavalry General, the Marquis of Wu, the fiefdom of Wu County, and five mansions in Luoyang, with hundreds of maids, provided food and fodder for the [-]-strong army! !

Cheng Pu took a deep breath and was shocked.

That's the cavalry general! !

Chariot General (chē qí jiāng jūn) is the name of a senior general in ancient times. The Han system, with gold seal and purple ribbon, ranks second only to the general and the hussar general, and above the general of the guard and the front, rear, left and right generals, and ranks higher than the minister, or as high as the three Dukes.

During the Han Dynasty, the chariot and cavalry generals were mainly responsible for conquering betrayal. When there was a war, they would worship their officials and go on expeditions, and then they would be relieved of their duties. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it became a permanent title for generals.

It can be seen from this that the general of chariots and cavalry has a high position and authority.

This reward is too heavy.

Cheng Pu was so heavy that he was a little at a loss.

Before he entered Yique Pass, they and Sun Jian calculated that the lion would open its mouth so that Dong Zhuo could trust them.

However, Cheng Pu did not expect that Dong Zhuo would not be reinstated.

This is like hitting them with a big pie!
  Cheng Pu came to his senses in shock and confusion. Although he was at a loss, he still held his hand to Dong Zhuo and said:

"Then Cheng Pu will go back and report to my lord immediately!"

"Haha, go ahead. The reward from the imperial court will arrive soon. When the time comes, I will personally go to greet Sun Wentai!"

Dong Zhuo laughed out loud.

After Cheng Pu left, Niu Fu couldn't sit still and said to Dong Zhuo:

"My lord, is this reward too heavy? This is a chariot and cavalry general, as well as the Marquis of Wu!"

Niu Fu was so envious that the chicken was crooked.

As Dong Zhuo ascended to the throne of Qin King, they all ascended to heaven and received rewards, especially those close friends of Xiliang.

But now Sun Jian jumped directly in front of them, and they were extremely jealous.

Dong Zhuo smiled and said nothing, looking at Li Ru aside.

Li Ru smiled and comforted the generals:

"Everyone, this Sun Jian is indeed a fierce general. What we are most worried about is that this Sun Jian pretends to join us and act as a scapegoat for others."

"So, if we want to dismantle him, we can only re-confer him and give Sun Jian the rewards that he refuses and does not want to throw away. The so-called titles of marquis and generals are just illusory. We can give or stop providing food and fodder for the [-]-strong army. For For us, these efforts are not big, but the impact on Sun Jian is indeed huge."

"In addition, if we buy horse bones for thousands of dollars and re-confess Sun Jian like this, then other forces will be willing to join us. Our power will be greater, and the world will be ours from now on. Are you afraid that there will be no place for you?"

Although Li Ru explained that such a large reward was a means to win over Sun Jian, Niu Fu, Li Que and other Xiliang generals were still unconvinced.

It is true that Dong Zhuo gave Sun Jian a very heavy seal.

Dong Zhuo quickly made a strategy with Li Ru to recruit Sun Jian's reward and spread it to the world.

On the one hand, it is to completely cut off the possibility of Sun Jian defecting to other forces.

On the other hand, he wanted to buy horse bones with thousands of gold to promote the benefits of taking refuge with Dong Zhuo.

Liu Zhu was just a puppet. Dong Zhuo naturally did not need Liu Zhu's consent to seal anything. An imperial edict, led by a group of young eunuchs, soon came outside Yique Pass to publicize the imperial edict!
  "General Chariot and Cavalry, please accept the imperial edict."

A eunuch with a pale face and no beard said to Sun Jian with a smile.

At this time, Sun Jian's body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were full of stormy eyes, looking at the imperial edict in the eunuch's hand.

General Chariot! Wu Hou!
  As long as he, Sun Jian, accepts this imperial edict, he, Sun Jian, will be among the most powerful people in the Han Dynasty!
  Sun Jian's heart was in turmoil, and he could not calm down for a long time.

"General Chariot and Cavalry, please accept the imperial edict."

The beardless eunuch smiled again and said to Sun Jian.

"Whoo~"

"Assist King Wu, act as internal correspondent, and receive the imperial edict!"

Sun Jian came back to his senses, let out a breath, and hypnotized himself mentally. Then without any hesitation, he accepted the imperial edict under the watchful eyes of Cheng Pu, Han Dang and other generals.

"Hiss..."

Sun Jian opened the imperial edict and looked at it, but still felt waves of unreality.

Sun Jian's family is in Fuchun, and his ancestral grave is in the east of the city. Before he was born, his father told him that there were strange lights in the tombs of Sun's ancestors. Five-colored clouds are connected to the sky and spread for miles. Everyone nearby went to watch.

The elders all said: "This is not an ordinary scene. I am afraid that the Sun family will become stronger."

His mother also said that when she was pregnant with him, she dreamed that her intestines were being pulled out of her belly and surrounding Wu Di Changmen. I was very scared when I woke up and told the old lady next door.

At that time, the old lady said: "Maybe it's a good sign!"

Sure enough, Sun Jian was a county official when he was young and served as magistrate of three counties. Wherever he went, he was very famous and the officials and the people were close and obedient.

The Yellow Turban Uprising broke out, and Sun Jian led his fellow villagers to join the war.

Although he was born into a poor family, he rose from a county official to a county magistrate, then to the governor of Changsha, and now he was awarded the title of Chariot and Cavalry General and Wuhou by the imperial court.

Sun Jian felt like his mind was shaking at this moment.

Is this power?

Sun Jian recovered his complicated emotions and said to the envoy:
  "When can Jian enter the customs!"

"Haha, Marquis Wu can lead his troops into the pass at any time!"

The Xiliang envoy smiled.

"Okay, send an order to the entire army to enter Yique Pass!" As soon as Sun Jian heard what the Xiliang envoy said, he immediately ordered Cheng Pu and Han Dang without hesitation.

"promise!"

All the generals raised their hands and made a loud promise.

Immediately, the [-]-strong army, which had been well prepared, marched towards Yique Pass in a mighty manner.

Sure enough, I saw Yique Pass wide open.

"Enter the pass!" Seeing this, Sun Jian took a deep breath and said.

A large number of Jiangdong's troops entered Yique Pass. At this point, Sun Jian surrendered to Dong Zhuo's command. The news that Qin King Dong Zhuo had bought horse bones for his daughter quickly spread throughout the world. (End of chapter)
