New Story of Lv Bu - chapter 1242
When Sun Ce founded the foundation, Zhang Hong was appointed by Sun Cebiao as a lieutenant, and he followed Sun Ce to conquer Danyang. Sun Ce came to the front of the battle, and Zhang Hong persuaded him: “The chief general is the role of planning and planning. The fate of the three armies depends on him. You cannot act lightly and fight against the small bandits. I hope you can cherish the talents that God has granted you. The desire of the world, don’t let the whole country worry about your safety.” Unfortunately, Sun Ce did not follow Zhang Hong’s advice and was assassinated to death. Zhang Hong’s ability to observe people in Yuwei can be seen. Now, Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong’s “two Zhangs” assist Sun Quan to renovate the internal affairs, Zhou Yu is out, and Jiangdong is safe.
At this time, it was the beginning of March in the fourth year of Jianan. As Sun Ce’s mother, Mrs. Wu was very frightened. She asked Dong Xi, a school lieutenant in Yangwu and a member of Kuaiji, “Can Jiangdong be kept?” Dong Xi said, “The terrain of Jiangdong is difficult, easy to defend and difficult to attack. General Sun Ce The kindness of grace stays in the people, General Sun Quan inherits the foundation, and officials support him. Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong preside over the overall situation. We military generals as minions, this is the time when the place is favorable and the people are safe and there is no need to worry.” Sun Quan sent Zhang Hong to Some people think that Zhang Hong was an official appointed by the court when he took office in Huiji County. They suspect that his ambition is not only here, but Sun Quan does not mind it.
As the news of Sun Ce’s sudden death spread all over the world, the world’s scholars were inexplicably shocked, and the conspiracy theory suddenly became dusty. Sun Ce has fought and killed countless people throughout his life. He has never been soft-hearted. Kill the unyielding one! If you don’t obey the order, kill! Even just because the limelight had overshadowed him, he was slaughtered by the knife. For example, the hermit Yuyao was killed just because he did not want to be an official.
Such a tyrannical man with iron and blood, his last words are to tell Nai brother to keep Jiangdong’s foundation, rather than enter the Central Plains and compete in the world, which is really inexplicable. A wise person judged that Sun Quan was 19 years old, just a young man, and had very little military and political experience. Moreover, he had just been defeated by Chen Deng in Guangling County and defeated the Jiangdong Sun Family’s first big defeat. His prestige has dropped to a freezing point, and it is really difficult to convince Jiangdong’s civil servants and generals. If you try to make progress again, I’m afraid it will really be over.
Therefore, Sun Ce weighed Sun Quan’s talents and had to set a national policy to protect Jiangdong’s foundation. This is also the case. Second, with Sun Ce’s cleverness, I’m afraid he has long realized who is playing the black hand. Sun Ce died at the hands of an assassin, why didn’t the soldiers who came to stay alive? If Sun Cezhen simply died at the hands of Xu Gong’s three men, he would definitely warn Sun Quan to pay attention to his own safety before he died. The Jiangdong aristocratic clan played a black hand and pushed Xu Gong out as a scapegoat. It was an excellent excuse and excuse both internally and externally.
After Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, it is the best conclusion to declare that Sun Ce died at the hands of the three men of Xu Gong. Because Xu Gong was once Sun Ce’s enemy, this is an external cause, not an internal cause, so that the wealthy and prominent families in Jiangdong can relax and stop taking any action. Since your grandson’s family didn’t say anything, then this matter is overturned, and everyone tacitly knew it, and the harmony remained as before. The biggest contradiction is relieved.
In addition to announcing the cause of Sun Ce’s death, Sun Quan also took many measures under the promotion of Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong and Zhou Yu. For example, reconciling with the Jiangdong clan, appointing them to be the chiefs of the prefecture, and at the same time accepting private soldiers to train the army. Repair cities, widen roads, build warships, smelt weapons, purge officials, etc. The Jiangdong regime has gradually moved towards a family system like Yuan Shu.
Nevertheless, the Jiangdong regime at this time was still turbulent, and the local gentry and common people, as well as the guests and guests were still dissatisfied. The Lujiang prefect Li Shu, who had originally promised to return to the east of the Yangtze River, publicly rebelled, and tens of thousands of mountains and Yuets in Yuzhang, Kuaiji and other places also waited for opportunities to cause chaos. Near Qu’a, Dantu, and Jiangbei, hundreds of thousands of Han troops watched. The newly born Jiangdong regime is like a lone boat wandering around.
At the same time, bad news came one after another. The first was that the Danyang prefect Sun Yi and the patriarch Sun He were killed.
Sun Yi, also known as Sun Yan, with the word Shubi, is Sun Jian’s third son, the younger brothers of Sun Ce and Sun Quan, and he is only seventeen years old. In the third year of Ping, Sun Ce moved to Jiangdu with his family after Sun Jian was buried, where he met Zhang Hong. Sun Ce decided to ask Yuan Shu to get his father’s old ministry and occupy Wu Hui to avenge his father. Sun Yi and his mother moved to Danyang. After Sun Ce was ordered to attack Lujiang for Yuan Shu, Liu Yao had misunderstanding and suspicion about Sun Ce. But Sun Ce’s family was in the middle of the prefecture, so Zhu Zhi sent people to Qu’a to meet Sun Ce’s mother and Sun Quan’s younger brothers.
Sun Quan and Sun Yi were later recommended by Zhu Zhi as Xiaolian, and Wen Wang Lu Bu offered courtesy to them. In the fourth year of Jian’an, when Sun Ce was dying, Zhang Zhao and other ministers had nominated the third younger brother Sun Yi who had a temperament similar to Sun Ce, but Sun Ce rejected it. Sun Ce immediately called Sun Quan into the house, asking for future affairs. Perhaps before his death, Sun Ce fully understood the cause of his death, and then abandoned Ku Xiao’s own Sun Yi.
Sun Yi was stern and violent, with joy, anger and happiness written on his face. Zhu Zhi rebuked and persuaded him several times and explained to him with reason. Not long after Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, his uncle Wu Jing died suddenly, and Sun Yi led Danyang as the prefect, who was seventeen years old. After Sun Yi arrived at Danyang, he used Li Luozhi’s subordinates of Sheng Xian as the governor of the capital and Dai as the county chief. Members Guilan and Dai got close to Bian Hong, but were condemned by Sun Yi several times, so they conspired to rebel. Just as Sun Quan went to Jiangxia to capture and kill Huang Zu, they found the opportunity to practice trickery.
In mid-March of the 4th year of Jian’an, the magistrates of Danyang County met with Sun Yi. Sun Yi ordered his wife Xu to make a banquet for him. Xu said that the hexagrams were bad and bad, and advised Sun Yi not to have a banquet. . Sun Yi thought that the officials had been here for a long time and that they should be allowed to leave as soon as possible, so he began to see off the guests. Sun Yi usually wields a knife when going in and out. He was drunk at the time, so he saw off the guests empty-handed. Bian Hong then beheaded Sun Yi later. At that time, everyone in the county was very busy, and no one went to save Sun Yi. After Bian Hong killed Sun Yi, he was able to escape into the mountains.
Bian Hong was finally captured by the Xu clan who was hunted down. Gui Lan and Member Dai blamed Bian Hong for killing Sun Yi and killed him, but the sergeants in Danyang all determined that the culprits were Gui Lan and Member Dai. Guilan and member Dai knew that Sun Quan was close to him, and they were simply overwhelmed. They killed Sun He who had come to inspect the clan and wanted to offer Danyang County to Chen Deng. Guilan entered the general’s mansion again, plundering Sun Yi’s concubine room, and forcing Xu’s family. The Xu family knew that Wei Lan and Member Dai were the murderers. She pretended to appease Wei Lan and set up a plan with Sun Yi’s close associates Dai and Sun Gao in private, successfully punishing Wei Lan and Member Dai, and sacrificed their first class to the tomb of Sun Yi. . Sun Quan immediately returned to punish the bereaved and Dai’s clan.
Sun Yi’s “Cool Xiao Sun Ce” was once supported by Zhang Zhao and others as Sun Ce’s heir. Although Sun Ce finally chose Sun Quan, in the hearts of Jiangdong civil servants and generals, he still hoped that Sun Yi would succeed. Now that Sun Yi is killed by Bian Hong, it can be regarded as indirectly removing a strong competitor for Sun Quan. The death of Sun Ce’s important minister, Sun He, also enabled Sun Quan to completely control Jiangdong’s military power.
At this moment, another big case broke out. Sun Fu had an illicit connection to Jiangbei and was accused. This is one of the biggest scandals in Jiangdong.
Sun Fu initially assisted Sun Ce to ping the three prefectures as a captain of Yangwu. In the second year of Jian’an, Sun Ce conquered Danyang and other seven counties, sent Sun Fu to Liyang to the west to defend against Yuan Shu, and lured the remaining people to reconcile the lost soldiers. Sun Fu followed Sun Ce against Lingyang and captured Zulang alive. The following year, Sun Fu followed Sun Ce to attack Lujiang Prefect Liu Xun to the west. Sun Fu took the lead in the battle with Liu Xunjun and made great achievements. Sun Ce appointed Sun Fu as Luling Prefect, and asked him to calm down the county to which he belonged and appoint officials separately. Later, Sun Fu was promoted to General Pingnan, and also served as Jiaozhou governor. At this time, Jiaozhou was in the hands of the scholars, and Sun Ce’s move was nothing but a mediocre reward.
After Sun Quan succeeded to the throne, Sun Fu worried that Sun Quan would not be able to protect Jiangdong, so he sent envoys to secretly communicate with Wen Wang Lu Bu while Sun Quan was out. As a result, Sun Fu secretly communicated the Jiangbei incident. After Sun Quan came back, he pretended not to know about it, summoned Sun Fu with Zhang Zhao, and said to Sun Fu, “The brothers are not happy to say it, why should we call outsiders to come? ?” Sun Fu denied that there was no such thing
Sun Quan showed Zhang Zhao the correspondence between Sun Fu and Jiangbei, and asked Zhang Zhao to show it to Sun Fu. Sun Fu was ashamed and speechless. Sun Quan then killed Sun Fu’s nearby officials, cut his trilogy, and exiled him to the eastern confinement. However, Sun Quan was very wise, only exiled Sun Fu, and Sun Fu’s sons Sun Xing, Sun Zhao, Sun Wei, and Sun Xin all obtained official positions in turn. This move adds a lot to Sun Quan.
After Sun Fu was exiled, his elder brother Sun Ben finally saw Sun Quan’s true face and resigned from office. Sun Quan refused, and Sun Ben stayed behind closed doors and never participated in court meetings. As a result, all those who could threaten Sun Quan’s regime were cut off, and Sun Quan finally settled in Jiangdong. However, the relationship between the Jiangdong regime and the imperial court fell to a freezing point because of Sun Fu’s private connection to the north of the Yangtze River.
Li Shu, the prefect of Lujiang County, refused to obey Sun Quan, and accepted the traitors under Sun Quan. Sun Quan reported the situation to Wen Wang Lu Bu, saying: “Yangzhou Yanxiang, Yuan Shu’s former tribe, was killed by Li Shu. Li Shu unscrupulously killed court officials and should be punishable as soon as possible. Now I have sent troops to conquer, and Li Shu will definitely return. With rhetoric, ask for help from the court. You are responsible for the world, and every move will be noticed by the whole country. I beg you to tell the officials in charge of specific affairs not to listen to Li Shu again.”
A few days later, Wen Wang Lu Bu sent an envoy to Jiangdong and agreed to Sun Quan’s request. So Sun Quan marched into Wancheng and besieged Li Shu. Li Shu asked Lv Bu for help, but Lv Bu ignored him. So Sun Quan captured the city of Anhui, indulged the soldiers to slaughter the city, cut off Li Shu’s head to show the public, and moved Li Shu’s more than 20,000 people to his control area. In this way, Sun Quan completely restored Jiang Dong.
At this time, it was September of the fourth year of Jian’an.
