The night was dark, and the world was silent.
The eyes of the gathered refugees were glowing with a dim light, as if they were evil spirits that had crawled out of hell.
The Han Dynasty collapsed and the country fell.
Under the ravages of war and the plague, the population of the Great Han Dynasty rapidly decreased.
The war between the dukes had just begun.
Sun Ce had recruited a thousand troops, but he could not be happy.
After his father, Sun Jian, died, Sun Ce took on the heavy responsibility of supporting the Sun family.
Yuan Shu was capricious and did not keep his word. He had once promised to let Sun Ce be the governor of Jiujiang, and later, he changed his position to his trusted aide, Chen Ji.
Later, Yuan Shu borrowed 30,000 bushels of military rations from Lu Kang, the prefect of Lujiang. Lu Kang refused to give it to him, angering Yuan Shu.
Yuan Shu promised that as long as Sun Ce defeated Lu Kang, he would promote him to the position of Governor of Lujiang.
Sun Ce led his troops to attack Lujiang for two years and finally defeated Lu Kang.
Yuan Shu broke the contract and appointed his old subordinate Liu Xun as the Mayor of Lujiang Prefecture.
Sun Ce became more and more disappointed with Yuan Shu.
"Why is Bofu worried?"
After spending the day together, Xiang Yu and Sun Ce became more and more familiar with each other.
After hearing that Xiang Yu was saved by his little sister, Sun Ce treated Xiang Yu even more kindly.
In the unseen world, there was heaven's will.
"Heart disease."
Sun Ce patted his chest. There was a burning flame inside. His ambition was burning fiercely.
This flame could burn the river and boil the sea, but it was suppressed at this moment. No wonder Sun Ce felt uncomfortable.
"I have a prescription that can cure Bo Fu's illness.”Xiangyu's gaze was calm, containing wisdom and strategy.
"Oh? Lin Yuan might as well tell him about this prescription, what's so wonderful about it.”
Sun Ce collected his thoughts and looked at Xiang Yu respectfully with an expectant expression.
"Pacify the Wu region of River East and establish the Sun family's territory.”
Xiang Yu hid his sharp edge, containing a broad-minded intent.
Sun Ce's entire body trembled. His eyes reflected the raging bonfire, and the swaying flames instantly swallowed him.
"Bofu wants to borrow Yuan Shu's power to take revenge, it's wishful thinking. His father's hatred was irreconcilable. Only by conquering the Jiangdong counties could Bofu have the power to conquer Jiangxia and crush the Yellow Ancestor.”
"Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou, has an empty reputation and no great talent. As long as Bo Fu raised his arm and shouted, all the heroes in Jiangdong would respond.”
Xiang Yu's eyes flashed, and his thoughts coincided with Sun Ce's.
"Lin Yuan's insight is admirable. The recruitment this time was for the trip to River East. However, Ce's knowledge was shallow. If he could get Lin Yuan's help, he would be able to do more with less.”
Sun Ce formally extended an invitation, and Xiang Yu gladly agreed.
The next day, Sun Ce appointed Xiang Yu as the chief clerk and went to negotiate with Yuan Shu to obtain the authorization to attack Jiangdong.
Xiangyu did not know what he had sacrificed, but judging from his disappointed expression, it was definitely not an exchange of equal value.
Of Sun Jian's thousands of men, Yuan Shu only returned a thousand men and a few dozen warhorses. There were hundreds of guests who were willing to follow Sun Ce.
With the strong men Sun Ce recruited, they barely managed to gather three thousand people.
This army did not even have proper weapons and equipment. The flag was sewn and barely had the word 'Sun' on it.
It was this word that Sun Ce stared at for a very long time.
"One day, this flag will be planted all over the counties of River East.”
Yuan Shu and Liu Yao had been fighting for several years. In his opinion, with Liu Yao, Wang Lang, and other vassals occupying Jiangdong, Sun Ce could not do anything.
He hypocritically submitted a petition to the Imperial Court, appointing Sun Ce as a lieutenant and acting general.
After Sun Quan heard the news, he advised Grand Madame Wu,"Mother, Eldest Brother must have listened to the slanderous words of a traitor. Otherwise, why would he do such a reckless thing?”
Once they failed, how would the famous families in Jianghuai laugh at the Sun family?
Would they still be able to survive under Yuan Shu's command?
Yuan Shu was born in the Yuan family of Runan. He was inherited by three princes for four generations and dominated the Jianghuai area. Becoming enemies with him would not have a good ending.
The warm sunlight shone through the window and onto Mrs. Wu's pale face. She said softly,
"Bofu is rash but very opinionated. He had a group of reliable retainers to help him, so he could distinguish right from wrong.”
"That's true, but doesn't mother think that Xiangyu is suspicious? If he wasn't from a famous family, he wouldn't be able to tell. I'm afraid there will be future troubles if I instigate my eldest brother.”Sun Quan asked warily, feeling uneasy.
"Alright, alright. I will find a chance to warn your eldest brother. Let him decide.”Mrs. Wu said.
Sun Quan suddenly recalled that imposing figure, and he felt as though his heart was empty, as if he had lost something.
The new book was released, and the evaluation was at least four or five chapters per day. The data was good, and the number was more than ten chapters. Without flowers, reviews, gifts, and collections, it would be very difficult to write a new book. Recently, the Three Kingdoms literature had become more and more niche, and it would be even more difficult without the system.
