#482 - Courage is commendable (more)
At this moment, where did Fan Shang dare to act tough?
Except for concealing the fact that he had also reprimanded Gu Jun, he told everything almost like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.
After hearing that Gu Jun had gone to his death for the sake of righteousness, without damaging the Han Dynasty's reputation in the slightest, even the most rational Zhou Yu in the tent couldn't help but redden his eyes, and he somewhat regretted proposing such a mission.
Zhou Yu originally thought that since the Han Dynasty had repeatedly sent troops to destroy countries because Han envoys had been killed over the past few hundred years, the surrounding countries should know what the identity of a Han envoy represented.
In addition, Zhou Yu was not from Rinan Commandery, and he was not very clear about the extent to which Linyi had always been arrogant towards Rinan Commandery and the Han Dynasty.
Moreover, the Han Dynasty has always had the rule of "do not kill envoys in war."
Therefore, when Zhou Yu proposed sending an envoy, he did not expect that Linyi's courage would be so great.
As for the arrogant words of Gu Jun recounted by Fan Shang, Zhou Yu did not feel that there was anything wrong with them.
What's wrong with an envoy from a superior country being a little arrogant and domineering when visiting a barbarian country?
Could it be that a Han envoy is not worthy of speaking to a barbarian country in such a tone?
Not to mention that Zhou Yu wouldn't think so, if anyone thought that Han envoys should be humble and submissive to foreign countries, many great Confucians of the Han Dynasty would jump up and slap them in the face.
Since the Han Dynasty defeated the Xiongnu in the north, conquered Nanyue in the south, and established the Protectorate of the Western Regions, it has always been so strong externally.
"Gu Jun did not disgrace the might of the Han Dynasty, a true man!"
Xu Sheng took the lead in expressing his opinion on this.
"If Gu Jun were not dead, I would have a good drink with such a man," Gan Ning also revealed a look of emotion.
"Rinan Commandery also has true men!" Zhou Yu said with some emotion.
Only Sun Ce did not say a word, staring coldly at Fan Shang in front of him, scaring Fan Shang so much that his legs trembled and he said, "I... I have said everything, spare my life, spare my life..."
Sun Ce kicked Fan Shang to the ground and said, "Get out! And tell the criminal Qu Lian exactly what I just said, I will arrive in Champa soon."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Fan Shang, as if granted amnesty, rushed out almost crawling.
After Fan Shang left in a panic, the people in the military tent also came out one after another, and then ordered people to open the coffin.
Looking at Gu Jun in the coffin, whose head was separated from his body, everyone was filled with grief and anger.
Moreover, Linyi obviously did not have a good corpse seamstress, and only dealt with it hastily.
Therefore, Xu Sheng immediately asked people to find the corpse seamstress in the army, so that Gu Jun could be buried completely.
Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the army has always liked to judge military merits by heads.
To some extent, this can also be regarded as a long-term illness becoming a doctor, so the army has never lacked soldiers who have mastered excellent corpse sewing techniques, so as to repair the bodies of their comrades.
After Gu Jun's body was repaired, Yu Guo was very grateful to Xu Sheng, and couldn't help but sadly say.
"I still have an unrequested request."
"Prefect Yu, please speak freely," Xu Sheng replied.
Yu Guo slowly said.
"My brother-in-law has always loved Han Chinese culture, but it is a pity that he was born in Rinan Commandery and has no teacher to teach him, so he always yearns for the Central Plains, hoping to see the scenery of the Central Plains of the Han Dynasty one day, so I wonder if General Xu can take him to the Central Plains to find a prosperous place to bury him?"
"If this can fulfill one or two wishes of Envoy Gu, Xu Sheng will definitely arrange it properly."
After a pause, Xu Sheng continued.
"Moreover, about Envoy Gu, Sheng will also truthfully record it and present it to the lord, and the lord will personally ask the court for credit and record it in the history books for future generations to sing and commemorate."
"In this case, I will thank General Xu on behalf of my brother-in-law," Yu Guo said gratefully.
Sun Ce, who was listening on the side, was more concerned about other things than Gu Jun's funeral arrangements, and asked.
"Did Envoy Gu leave behind any descendants?"
"There is a son, who is almost ten years old," Yu Guo replied.
Since people often get married in their teens, it is not surprising that Gu Jun, who seems to be in his twenties, has a ten-year-old son.
And this age also made Sun Ce feel a little emotional.
Sun Ce still remembered when he first met his teacher, he seemed to be about this age.
Immediately, Sun Ce hesitated slightly, and then said.
"If Prefect Yu believes me, you can entrust Gu Jun's young son to me to take care of. I have heard before that my teacher intends to find talented young children in various places to teach them personally, and I plan to recommend Gu's young son to my teacher."
"If he can be valued by the teacher, in the future... he will be a national scholar and a student of a noble family, enough to guarantee a lifetime of wealth and worry."
After a pause, Sun Ce did not forget to add.
"Even if the teacher doesn't like him, I will also adopt him as my adopted son and teach him by my side."
Yu Guo was overjoyed when he heard this.
With Yu Guo's recent contact with Xu Sheng and others, he naturally learned about the deeds of Yangzhou Shepherd Liu Bei and National Scholar Marquis Li Ji from Xu Sheng and others, as well as a considerable part of the current situation of the Han Dynasty.
Therefore, if Gu Jun's son can be accepted as a student by National Scholar Marquis, it is bound to have a promising future!
"Yes, yes, yes!!"
Yu Guo almost agreed instantly, and even the grief originally caused by Gu Jun was diluted a bit.
Perhaps Gu Jun failed to witness the prosperity of the Han Dynasty with his own eyes in his lifetime, but his son can witness it on his behalf, presumably Gu Jun can rest in peace under the nine springs.
And to express his admiration for Gu Jun, Xu Sheng took the initiative to spread the news of "the Han envoy visiting Linyi and being killed by Linyi" throughout the three armies.
For a time, the three armies were indignant.
This matter was like hitting some bottom line of the Han people.
From generals to soldiers, all were angry.
Without Xu Sheng needing to inspire morale, the morale of the three armies had already risen to an unbelievable height.
Seeing this, Xu Sheng did not delay, and many preparations had already been arranged, and he immediately led 25,000 troops to pull out their camps and advance south.
Only Sun Ce and Zhou Yu led their personal guards to quietly leave the army, went to the seaside to meet the small boat, and returned to the fleet that had already moved away from the shore.
Moreover, because Fan Shang and others who came to visit were "protected" after entering Rinan Commandery, they were not allowed to contact the people around Xijuan City who knew of the existence of the fleet.
Therefore, while the Han army was advancing south like thunder, a fleet unknown to Linyi was already cruising in the sea, waiting to give Linyi a fatal blow.
And Xijuan City is not far from the border with Linyi, and with high morale, it only took less than two days of marching to reach the border of Linyi.
It was only slightly beyond Xu Sheng's expectations that before the Han army actually entered the territory of Linyi, scouts reported that a large army seemed to be forming a formation in front.
Gan Ning's face showed a ferocious smile when he heard this, and said coldly.
"Good, good, good, commendable courage!"
