Chapter 99 Undercurrent
Sun Jian said this very well.
Logically speaking, Liu Qi and Sun Jian are just guest relationships. Even if the ultimate goals of the two armies are different, there is no need to tell the truth on the surface.
From ancient times to the present, whenever something involves political stance, the hidden rules should pay attention to an obscure point, which involves the face of those in power and also involves reputation.
Even if it is known to everyone, you must do the superficial skill and not lose your word.
Just like the people who changed dynasties in history, when they abdicated, they all imitated the ancient examples and practiced the "three words". Because since ancient times, Yao, Shun and Yu carried out the abdication system. Shun's "three words" were accepted as Yao, and Yu's "three words" were accepted as Shun's "three words" were praised by later generations.
Even if everyone knows what's going on, the later generations will basically follow this rule to act for everyone in the world to see.
This is called a rule.
Those who do not abide by this rule and dare to break up with their faces must be a arrogant, courageous and unruly person.
It seems that this cold Sun Polu seems to be such a person.
He doesn't know what it means to stay at the front line of work and meet again in the future.
...
Liu Qi was not angry after hearing Sun Jian's words.
It was midnight, and the weather was so cold that I argued with him and had some fun.
Anyway, I can't sleep, so I used Sun Jian to relieve my boredom.
Liu Qi followed and said, "Your and Mr. Qi do not agree with this. Even though the purpose of marching between you and me is different, the same way is the same. When the Lord and Mr. sent troops here, they were to kill evil and evil. When our army came here, they were to protect the king. The source was for the Han people. How could we say that you and I were not people along the way?"
Sun Jian hummed, bite his legs and chewed it in big mouth.
Liu Qi continued: "Besides, if it weren't for the people along the way, why did Sun Polu let his soldiers and our soldiers be with us to help me 7,000 soldiers survive the cold winter days?"
Sun Jing hurriedly interrupted: "Young Master is right. Although my brother is very straightforward in his behavior, he has always been good at ease in his caregivers..."
Before Sun Jing could finish her flattering words, she saw Sun Jian suddenly raise his hand and stop him from continuing.
Because Sun Jian took action too quickly, the dog leg he chewed almost hit Sun Jing's face with a sudden force.
Sun Jing was so scared that she hurriedly avoided.
Liu Qi shook his whole body slightly and his goosebumps fell a little.
Suddenly, I felt that half of my cheeks seemed to be a little greasy.
Sun Jian stared at Liu Qi: "Young Master Liu knows why among the three armies, why is it important?"
Liu Qi didn't know why Sun Jian suddenly asked this: "It's the most important thing for food and fodder."
“Why?”
"It is related to life and death of a person."
"What should we do if the three armies have no food?"
"I'm afraid there will be a mutiny."
"Where is winter clothes? Is it related to life and death?"
"nature."
Sun Jian grinned, then bite the dog meat and said lightly: "That's it."
After looking at Sun Jian for a while, Liu Qi finally understood the profound meaning of his words.
Among all the county magistrates, no wonder he is the only one who can confront the Xiliang Army head-on and not lose. This person puts military first in his thinking.
The meaning contained in these few sentences is enough to show his pride.
Sun Jian asked his soldiers to be with the Jingzhou Army. It was not that he was polite to the Jingzhou Army, nor that he had the intention to make friends with Liu Qi, nor that he would show kindness to the people of Jingzhou.
He saw that the weather was suddenly cold these days, and he was afraid that the Jingzhou army would be weak and would not be able to do anything. He made another mutiny due to lack of winter clothes, which indirectly affected his soldiers and caused trouble, and was taken by the Xiliang army.
He bit his lip and thought about it without thinking about what special thing Sun Jian did tonight. He stood up and said, "Uncle, I'm sorry, my nephew is stupid, I really can't think of it."
Sun Jian did not reprimand Sun Ben.
These juniors have been in the army for a short time and have not worked hard in the official office for a long time. How can they understand their thoughts?
Very normal reaction.
In Sun Jian's opinion, the person who can understand his own ideas should be Sun Jing, who has followed him for the longest time, and Zhu Zhi, who is good at managing military affairs.
As for Liu Qi...
Sun Jian sneered, it should be even more impossible.
Sun Ben is older than Liu Qi and has followed him for a long time. Sun Jian didn't think that Liu Qi, a clan child, could also think of something he could not imagine.
"Mr. Liu's words are just a matter of talent, but Sun wants to hear them carefully." Sun Jian said lightly.
Liu Qi looked around, looked at the Sun soldiers who were lit up bonfires nearby, and said, "Actually, the answer is not very simple? General Sun invites all the generals to cook fire here. Isn't it just an act of calming the soldiers of the three armies?"
Sun Jian's face was a little heavy.
...
Luoyang, the Prime Minister's Office.
A day ago...
Dong Zhuo sat in the upper position with a gloomy face, and the generals of Xiliang who stood on both sides of the lower side were the ones he attracted the most to help him.
Now that Dong Zhuo is angry, all the generals bow their heads and say nothing, for fear of provoking him.
"Liu Jingsheng..." When Dong Zhuo was muttering this name, his teeth were clenched, and there was a creaking sound: "He, the governor of Jingzhou, was supported by me. I thought that the Liu clan relatives were more reliable than those of the gentry, but his current behavior was more hateful than those of the Guandong county magistrates... The two capitals set up a dynasty? It was a pity that every man thought of it!"
Li Ru sighed: "This memorial from Nanjun has made Sili and Nanyang's aristocrats find a reason to openly disobey the prime minister. Now they have become a force, and they would rather die than go to Chang'an."
"Bastard! I have not agreed to this memorial yet, and those people from the prominent clan dare to bare their teeth at me? Who leaked the news?"
Li Ru smiled bitterly and said, "It's not just this memorial, but the entire Sili also circulated the incident of the prime minister moving to Qiang people in Liangzhou. At present, the people of Sili slandering the prime minister and killing blood. If they move to their homes, it will be difficult to save the situation in the middle... It seems that some people deliberately rumored and caused trouble."
"It's really a rebellion." Dong Zhuo said angrily: "Where is Hu Zhen and Lu Bu? When will they go to fight against the Jingzhou army? My husband's general order has been passed down for three days. How can they not do it?"
Li Ru bowed and said, "The Great Protector and Duting Hou sent a reply letter. He wanted to lead the order to attack and kill the Jingzhou army, but the Jingzhou army is currently stationed in Yangren County, so it is difficult to act rashly."
"Yangren?" Dong Zhuo said strangely after hearing this: "How did the Jingzhou Army get involved with Sun Jian?"
"I don't know it either."
Dong Zhuo frowned and said, "Then you fight too! The people of Jingzhou are so rampant, and they openly write to me to fight against me. If they don't fight, they will not be able to establish their authority."
"No, I will send a fast cavalry to pass the order."
Dong Zhuo sighed and said, "But kill the two Yuans, Liu Biao, and Sun Jian, and the world obeys the lonely ears."
Li Ru hesitated for a moment and said, "Prime Minister, in fact, compared with Sun Jian and Liu Biao, the humble person thinks that Xun Shuang, Cai Yong, Wang Yun, Yang Biao, Huang Wan, Lu Zhi and others should pay more attention to the movement of the capital. Now that they have memorials to establish the courts of the two capitals, they are afraid that they will make any moves."
