Overlord!

Chapter 53 The Way to Deal with the Assassination of Jiangdong Tyrants
At the end of the Han Dynasty, one bad thing was that he would raise his head to see him every now and then.

Unprepared, two heads were placed in front of Sun Ce's case.

These two heads were Fan Neng and Yu Mi whom Sun Ce was looking for.

"General, these two people are hiding in Zhongshan Mountain, intending to take over the counties and counties with the intention of arbitrarily mobilizing the powerful and the mountains. Fortunately, the righteous men fought bravely, and these two thieves were awarded the first place in the middle of the banquet."

Sun Ce looked at the eloquent "righteous man" in front of him, he was the one who sent the heads of Fan Neng and Yu Mi.

The so-called righteous man's arms raised his arms, and he raised his arms and called out. Heroes fought and beheaded Fan Neng and Yu Mi while drinking and feasting.

As for why they met at the banquet, both sides chose to skip this question.

Because the martyrs have generously shown their sincerity.

In addition to the two heads of Fan Neng and Yu Mi, they also sent fifty good horses, five hundred catties of gold and silver, more than three thousand catties of iron and steel, hundreds of carts of grain and grain, and supplies.

This is definitely a big deal, and it represents that the northern tycoons of Danyang County have united to sponsor Sun Ce, a hero.

But this kind of thing, as long as you think about it for a while, you will know that there must be someone behind the scenes.

For any political move involving more than three people, especially if it involves class interests, there must be someone who takes the lead.

And the person who takes the lead must be someone with considerable strength and prestige in the northern counties of Danyang County.Winning over this person can appease the entire northern tyrant of Danyang County.

Sun Ce waved his hand and asked Chen Wu to take away the two bloody heads. Looking at the "righteous man" in front of him, he said, "Danyang, the king of the Zhou Dynasty, is lenient and kind. If you do this righteous deed, you will be exhausted. Lose." If the endowments are exhausted, and the same sincerity, Danyang County will be able to forge armor and sell weapons, and bring chaos into order."

But for Sun Ce's admiration, the other party didn't have much feeling, and his attitude was completely equal, even not without arrogance.

"Then Gui also needs to thank General Sun on behalf of Danyang's father and elders, and drive out the strong beams for us, make peace for the night, make the army more disciplined, and have no offense against the people."

This tone seems to support Sun Ce, which is a gift from the powerful class.

Sun Cexiao was fierce, and the long knife in his hand immediately came out of the sheath. He walked up to the head of the Gui clan, Gui Lan, with the long knife in his hand. The burly and magnificent figure enveloped the rich middle-aged man. Slowly said: "My army and Minqiu have not committed any crimes, because they are all serving the Han people. If the mob rebelled, hurt and abused the people, I will kill the barbarians with the long knife in my hand!"

In the final analysis, these tyrants did not understand the situation clearly!
Did they come to befriend Sun Ce because, like other heroes, they have the ambition to help their kind when they are in trouble?

No!They were only afraid of Sun Ce's military power, so they surrendered voluntarily to prevent Sun Ce from cleaning them up in the name of rape and rebellion.

In the final analysis, their actions are only to safeguard their own interests and avoid direct collisions with powerful enemies!

It was Sun Ce's own military might that forced them to send representatives to negotiate.

It's not that they are powerful enough to bestow favors on Sun Ce.

When the two sides turned against each other completely and fought to the death, Sun Ce could kill all the heroes in these counties in the north of Danyang in one go, and let all the powerful and powerful be wiped out with their families.

This is a fact that everyone can see clearly, even if the powerful incite the people to resist Sun Ce's rule, it is useless.

Like Cao Cao, he wiped out a state and a county, pushed all the people in a county into a mill, and ground them into meat, without delaying his rule.

As long as the army is strong enough, there are plenty of other aristocratic families, big clans, talents, and refugees who are willing to continue to support it.

Behind GUI Lan, Sun Ce swung his sharp long knife abruptly, and said to the trembling GUI Lan, "Who do you think my sword is better than Cao Mengde?"

Cao Cao's massacre in Xuzhou has caused a large number of Xuzhou powerful and common people to flee to Yangzhou.

Even Ruo Rong, who is currently besieged by Sun Ce's army, escaped all the way south because of Cao Cao's eastward invasion, Xu Fang was uneasy.

Gui Lan, as a powerful Danyang, has the best experience of this horrible outcome.

After feeling Sun Ce Senhan's blade, the hairs all over his body stood on end, and he immediately bowed his head and admitted: "The general is righteous and vigorous, and those who jump on the beam will be killed even if they are strong! Anyone who dares to try the general's sharpness is nothing but charcoal!"

Sun Ce was finally slightly satisfied with this attitude.I am not hostile to Hao Qiang, but Hao Qiang had better recognize the reality.Today is a troubled time, only the one who holds a knife in Fu Wei's hand can be the master!

If they didn't have the ambition of holding a three-foot long sword in their hands, sweeping away the heroes and rebels, and competing to dominate the world.The best choice is to join a force and jointly protect the peace of the place, instead of fighting against the cold blade forcefully.

This is also the opinion of Gui Lan and the other tyrants.At least for now, it seems that Sun Ce and Min Qiu have done nothing wrong, and this Min also includes powerful people.Not even forced taxation has been done.

This is indeed a good alliance object.So Gui Lan took the initiative to say: "I heard that General Sun is recruiting heroes to build a great cause together. Although I am not talented, I am willing to do my best for General Sun. My Gui family is quite prestigious in Danyang, so please ask the governor of Danyang In the northern counties, raise food and grass for the general and recruit soldiers."

Sun Ce stood with the knife in his hand, a cold light flashed in his eyes when he heard the words, he suddenly remembered who this GUI Lan was.

The governor of Danyang!In history, it was he who murdered Sun Ce's favorite younger brother, Sun Yi, and wanted to occupy Sun Yi's wife Xu, but was killed by Xu's confidants.

No wonder he can come to negotiate on behalf of the entire powerful class!
This is one of Danyang's greatest powers.

Gui Lan turned his back to Sun Ce, and couldn't see the cold light in Sun Ce's eyes, but felt that the murderous aura was extraordinarily cold, and his whole body couldn't help but tense and stiff.

"Hahaha! Good! With the help of Mr. Gui, I won a county!" Suddenly, the hearty and heroic laughter made the whole tent feel cold, as if the sun was shining brightly in an instant, and the atmosphere became hot.

When Sun Ce put away the long knife and sat back behind the table, the cold light in his eyes had disappeared completely, and his face was full of handsome smiles, making people feel close to him when he saw it.

No matter how sinful GUI Lan is, he is now willing to help Sun Ce. On the eve of the decisive battle, this is one of Sun Ce's greatest strengths.

And Sun Ce believes that this is a smart man.From the fact that he took the initiative to come to make friends, it means that he can see which side Jiangdong is in now.

As long as the general trend is in place, this person will not do any stupid things. Instead, he will take the initiative to appease the heroes and raise food and grass as he said.

Whether to clear him up or not, this can be left to be observed in the next few years or even ten years.But now, it is necessary to win him over.

The prince Sun Ce wanted to defeat the most was Cao Cao, but now if Cao Cao proposed marriage, Sun Ce would agree without changing his face.

Gui Lan breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of his heart. As powerful, they really didn't want to be enemies with such a fierce hero like Sun Ce.

He took the initiative to open his mouth and said: "The general's magic soldiers drive eastward, fight widows and offenders, attack generals who have no strong cities, and fight captives who have no confrontations. Now only Ruo Rong is guarding the precipitous, like bandits entrenched in the mountains. They all thought that the most urgent task was to help the general kill this beast."

Of course, the heroes of Danyang hoped to end the war in the territory as soon as possible. Sun Ce led the army to Wujun as soon as possible.It is better to fight in other counties than at your own doorstep.

Sun Ce asked: "Wait for Yingjie, do you have a way to defeat the enemy?"

Gui Lan narrowed his eyes, and a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his thin mouth: "We really don't have a good way to defeat the enemy. But he was trapped in a cage by the general, and we have several ways to kill this beast." .”

There are several ways!
Sun Ce's eyes were fixed, and he suddenly remembered that assassins are prevalent in Jiangdong now, and Zang Xing hides his death.

Sending people to assassinate is the method Jiangdong Haoqiang is best at.

Historically, Sun Yi was bought by Guilan's trusted guard Bian Hong. After the banquet, he got drunk and forgot to bring a knife, and died in an assassination.

That's why Sun Ce never left his long knife, and always brought it with him when he was in the bridal chamber. Even if he had strong generals like Chen Wu, Yang Xiao, and Xian Yulie by his side, he never dared to relax.

Anyone can betray him, except the long knife in his hand!

Sun Ce said calmly, "Then I'll wait for you to get the good news out."

Gui Lan is extremely confident: "Ze Rong has been stationed in Moling for a year. He is a good wine and sexist, and has a deep relationship with us. We have several methods to take his life. I also ask Sun Lang to retreat for the time being, relieve his siege, and relax his defenses." Heart."

"Yes." Sun Ce replied blankly.

Chen Wu, who was guarding at the side, said anxiously: "General, retreat now? There are still more than [-] war horses in the Ruo Rong camp. If the assassination fails, all these horses will be lost!"

"Don't be suspicious of people, and don't be suspicious of people. I believe that Mr. Gui will be able to report good news." Sun Ce said lightly.

Gui Lan's eyes lit up, and he even admired Sun Lang's heroism.

This is more than 2000 war horses!
He cupped his hands excitedly: "I will surely live up to Sun Lang's high hopes, and Ruo Rong will confer the head early on!"

After GUI Lan left, Sun Ce's face suddenly turned cold.

He actually felt the threat of assassins earlier than in history!

Indeed, it is time to take precautions. Before that, I have always paid attention to grandeur and fighting on the battlefield.Now it's time to make up for the conspiracy and secretly confront each other.

To deal with powerful conspiracies and assassins, blindly defending is definitely impossible to defend against.There is only a thousand days to be a thief, how can there be a thousand days to guard against a thief.

The best way is undoubtedly to nip the tyrannical conspiracy in the bud.

Before they wanted to assassinate Sun Ce, Sun Ce had already detected their secrets.Sun Ce can even know exactly who they had a secret conversation with at night, what kind of intercourse they had with their wife.

And the one who is most qualified for this duty is undoubtedly Jin Yiwei.

This cold and powerful organization is not only the emperor's personal soldier, but also responsible for monitoring officials, patrolling and arresting, collecting military information, instigating enemy generals, and countering espionage.

Its illustrious reputation made all officials shudder.

Of course, there is also this kind of organization in Dahan, that is, Xiuyi Zhizhi, who is responsible for the inspection of all officials, and the investigation of group officials, waiting for traitors and changes, and Wei Zhenzhou County.The most outstanding embroidered clothes are undoubtedly Jiang Chong. There is no secret even in the crown prince's uterus. In the end, he forced the crown prince against him, leading to the disaster of witchcraft.

In the world of disputes between the Three Kingdoms, it went a step further.Both Wei and Wu had school officials, like the marquis officials of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the factory guards of the Ming Dynasty.

Sun Ce does not plan to step up to the school officer for the time being, he intends to set up an embroidered guard in the name of embroidered clothes Zhizhi, which will be in charge of the chief general's personal guard and secret surveillance.

Of course, if the silk weaving industry in Danyang County develops in the future and Yunjin comes out, then the Embroidered Clothes Guard may be changed into Jinyi Guard.

After all, Jin Yiwei's flying fish suit is made of gorgeous brocade!
But Sun Ce really needs to look for candidates for the speaker of Embroidery Guards.

This person may not be tall and strong, or have great talents, but he must be extremely loyal, and even willing to die for Sun Ce with a word.

Sun Ce immediately thought of Zhao Yun.

After all, it doesn't matter whether Yunmei is courageous or scheming, her loyalty is absolutely beyond doubt.This is the person who said with his own mouth, "Never be immoral".

But unfortunately, at this moment, Sun Ce couldn't recruit Zhao Yun no matter what.

Sending an envoy over there made Zhao Yun confused. Who is Sun Ce?

General Yuan Shu?

He doesn't even look up to Yuan Shao, but can he like Yuan Shu...'s generals?

However, although Zhao Yun could not be recruited, Sun Ce received a little inspiration from Zhao Yun.

There are also people in Jiangdong who are noble and upright, not necessarily weaker than Zhao Yun.

After a while, there was an excited voice in the tent.

"What! I handed over the parts to Ling Cao, so I won't lead the army anymore?"

"I can still raise horses, General. What! I don't need to raise horses anymore? Why is that, General! I just want to lead soldiers and fight in battle!"

Sun Ce's attitude was firm: "No, you must serve as the direct envoy of the Embroidered Clothes Guard."

Such a person who does not love money, Sun Ce naturally had to appoint him.

If you don't love money, you will never be bought by the powerful.If they won't be bribed, they will naturally be able to closely monitor the powerful and aristocratic families in turn.

Sun Ce said: "You are also studying recently to study how the embroidered garments work, and form an embroidered garment guard. Guard for me, monitor the powerful, detect conspiracy, and wait for traitors to change."

Of course, in order to make him willing, Sun Ce also drew a big cake for him: "When there is a suitable candidate, I will let him replace you, and then you will go out to command the army. Once the chief general's personal guard is released, he will definitely give him a heavy responsibility. You don't want to be like Chen Wu?"

Jiang Qin formed Xiuyiwei to replace Chen Wu as Sun Ce's guard.Chen Wu, the captain of the personal guard, was not fired, but was promoted by Sun Ce and entrusted with important tasks!

From the captain of the personal guard who commanded dozens of personal guards, he was directly promoted to a senior general in the army with the same status as Cheng Pu and Wu Jing.

Commanded all the cavalry under Sun Ce, including more than 2000 horses in the Ruo Rong camp that was about to be captured.

At that time, he may have thousands of cavalry under his command!
With regard to this way of promotion, Chen Wu was of course overjoyed.I will not feel wronged at all.

Jiang Qin twitched in envy of Chen Wu's current status.He had raised the horses for so long, but in the end he gave up one of the two military and horses, and gave them all to Chen Wu.

Sun Ce smiled and said to him, "Now you are setting up the Embroidered Clothes Guards to monitor the powerful, and there may be thousands of subordinates. If you are a general in another town, how can you have fewer than ten thousand people?"

Command the elite army of more than ten thousand people!
At this moment, Jiang Qin became energetic, and his heart beat like a drum.If you want to talk about this, then come to work hard!

He started to imitate Xiuyi Zhizhi and set up the Xiuyi Guard that day.
