During this time, Sun Jian gradually calmed down and sobered up from the initial excitement of winning the title of general, and began to use his brain to think. However, the more he thought about it, the more unhappy he became.
Yes, Yuan Shu followed the agreement and did not break his promise. He indeed granted himself the title of Polu General, and also added the title of Yuzhou Governor...
It looks good, but in reality it's like tasteless.
General Polu will not talk about it for now, let’s talk about this buy one get one free add-on, the governor of Yuzhou——
During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yuzhou was a proper first-level administrative region. The governor of Yuzhou was Qiao County, which administered two counties: Yingchuan County and Runan County, as well as Liang State, Pei State, Chen State, and Lu State.
A country's fiefdom.
So when Sun Jian calmed down, he thought about these places carefully, and suddenly realized that among these bird people in Yuzhou, who would care about him? None of them!
Which of the two counties belongs to Runan County?
That is the hometown of the Yuan family. Since Yuan An of the Yuan family, he has served as one of the three high-ranking officials in Yishui. There are countless disciples and former officials. He is just a mere governor of Yuzhou. Haha, I am not sure who is in charge of whom when I am in Runan.
…
Not to mention Yingchuan County, where a bunch of prominent families gather. If I really dare to go there and point fingers, I will probably be ridiculed by those great scholars until they are no longer a scumbag...
As for Liang, Pei, Chen and Lu, hehe...
That is the private land of the old Liu family. Each one is managed by a state minister, so there is no reason for me to interfere...
Moreover, the representative of Yuzhou is Qiao County, and the governor's office of Yuzhou is also located there, but where is he now?
It's in Nanyang County, Jingxiang!
Moreover, Qiao County, the place where the governor controls the government, is within the state of Pei. If he really wants to take office, he must give up a group of his subordinate soldiers. At most, he will bring four people, Zu Mao, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, and Huang Gai.
And go with a very limited force, otherwise if you lead a large number of troops through the city and lead the troops to invade the old Liu family's fiefdom without any legitimate reasons - then I will probably be like the three brothers Zhang Jiao a few years ago.
Nature...
Talking about this Polu general——
He is a general, yes, but he is also a general with a different name!
What is General Miscellaneous?
In fact, it is just an honorary title generally reserved for military attachés.
As for my General Polu, what is "Li"? It refers to the Qiang, Xianbei and other barbarians in the North. If he were in the North, he might still have some real power, but he is now in Nanyang County.
, are there any "prisoners" around here that can be broken?!
Now I can't go back to Changsha. Although I was originally the governor of Changsha, once I leave the governorship, it means that I have given up that position. Besides, now that I am the governor of Yuzhou, how can I use my identity as the governor of Yuzhou again?
Run back to Changsha?
What a dilemma...
Looking for Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongdao to theorize?
What can be said?
The general promised by Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongli was given to him. Not only was he given, but he was also given an additional official position...
Can’t control people and places?
The official position is in his hands, and the seal and ribbon are also in his hands. What else can he do? Can he ask Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongli to help him manage it? Not to mention that Yuan Shu still holds the position of a post-general with a higher rank than himself. Even if he is
Yuan Shu doesn't have an official position, does he still want his old face?
It turns out that Sun Jian and Sun Wentai are such incompetent people? When they become officials, they still need help from others to manage them? It is simply a big joke...
But procrastinating like this is not an option. Now that Changsha's support has been cut off, it can only rely on Nanyang's money and food, but all these money and food are in the hands of Yuan Shu and Yuan Gongli...
When Sun Jian thought of this, he really wanted to yell and vent, but he also knew that even if he cursed angrily, it would not change the situation at all, so he gritted his teeth and endured it.
Sun Jian has never been so eager to have a piece of territory of his own, a place where he can really stretch his fists. Changsha was too small before, and although Nanyang County is big now, his throat has always been blocked.
People are stuck, and even having enough food depends on whether others are willing or not...
snort!
How can I, Sun Jian and Sun Wentai, beg for mercy? Even if there is no way ahead, I will still find a way!
Sun Jian then thought about the Jingxiang area that he was relatively familiar with. Currently, Liu Biao and Liu Jingsheng had just settled in Xiangyang. The area they could control was not large, and they still couldn't control anyone below Nan County. So if I...
While I was thinking about it, my soldiers came to report that it was General Yuan who came to the government to discuss matters.
When Sun Jian saw Yuan Shu, he still expressed slight contempt for Yuan Shu in his heart. He still behaved like an official, pursuing fine clothes and food to the extreme. He looked elegant, but in fact he was full of evil.
Yuan Shu was still wearing a bright brocade robe. He smiled and asked Sun Jian to sit down. After chatting for a few words, he got to the point and said, "General Sun, do you have any advice on the current affairs of the government?"
"Jian is a vulgar person. He has lived in a remote place for a long time. How can he have high opinions? I don't know the general's intention?" Sun Jian said in a nonchalant manner.
This was also within Yuan Shu's expectation.
Yuan Shu originally didn't really want to ask Sun Jian's opinion, but wanted to express his own opinions, and then put his actions under the banner of righteousness——
Therefore, Yuan Shu said impassionedly: "Today, the court is dark and traitors are in power..." Yuan Shu was not afraid of what would happen if he spoke out. It would be fine if Sun Jian listened, but if he didn't listen - you must know that Sun Jian relied on himself for the entire camp's money and food.
If you squeeze it with your own hand, it will be without food within three days, and the soldiers will be in chaos without food!
Two days ago, Yuan Shu received a letter from Qiao Mao, the governor of Dongjun. The letter mentioned that the governor of Yanzhou had contacts with Yuan Shaoduo and seemed to be conspiring against Dong!
Anti-Director!
It turns out that boy Yuan Shao had this idea!
Yuan Shu was originally worried about his own territory. After all, although he actually controlled Nanyang County, he still had the title of general, not the governor of Nanyang, let alone the governor of Jingzhou, which was somewhat unfair.
Originally, Yuan Shu was still eyeing Jingxiang in the south, but after receiving Qiao Mao's letter, his thoughts suddenly became clearer. Yes, why should he pay attention to that messy Jingxiang land? If he could use the name of challenging Dong, he could send his army northward.
, wouldn’t it be possible not only to take over the government, but also to bring the rich and fertile land of Heluo into his own arms? In this way, wouldn’t it be tens of thousands of times better than that corner land?
Therefore, on the one hand, Yuan Shu wrote a letter and asked Qiao Mao to send it to Qiao Mao. He asked Qiao Mao to pretend to be the three princes and send the letter to Yizhou County, detailing Dong Zhuo's crimes, saying that the emperor was in danger and hoped for righteous soldiers to relieve the national crisis.
To occupy the title of righteousness; on the one hand, he summoned Sun Jian to come to the government to discuss matters, hoping to use Sun Jian's troops to gain ground and gain tangible benefits.
Anyway, Yuan Shu also knew that Sun Jian was also very eager to have his own territory, so this matter was basically a matter of benefit to both parties. Besides, he still had Sun Jian's life in his hands, so he didn't have to worry about Sun Jian not agreeing.
Sure enough, Sun Jian showed no signs of embarrassment and immediately offered himself as a vanguard and commanded his troops to challenge Dong!
Yuan Shu looked overjoyed and helped Sun Jian up. The two looked at each other and smiled, but they both saw an incomparable desire for territory in each other's eyes...
