Chapter Nine: Jia Xu and Sun Jian

(PS: The weekend time is relatively free, I rush to 4 am, and I guess I can't get up during the day, so I'll post the chapter at 11 am to 4 am in advance.

There is a chapter from 5:00 to 6:00 tonight, and there is another chapter from 0:00. Brothers, please pay attention to giving tickets after 0:00. Tomorrow, Monday, I will all be here. Let me get the first place in the newcomer list, haha!)

(Jingjing is here to thank everyone, thank you for your support, gentlemen, and ladies!)

When the attendant Yang Qi saw that Liu Bei was kind and righteous, the soldiers did not disturb the people in the city. He knew that he was a country and worshipped him as his lord. He then said to Liu Bei: "I think that although Jia Xu was Li Jue's confidant, he never forgot the Han Dynasty. Today, he was extremely angry with Dong Zhuo's actions. The emperor's uncle could plot against him."

Liu Bei immediately invited Jia Xu to the mansion. The two of them talked about Dong Zhuo today, and Jia Xu also yelled and scolded.

Liu Bei bowed and said, "I hope Mr. teach me a plan to kill the thief!"

Jia Xu said: "This matter is the same. As long as the killing does not cause chaos, it will be difficult. The emperor can slowly take action and not let Dong Zhuo discover it for the time being." He whispered to Bei.

Liu Bei was overjoyed and said, "Sir God gave me yourselves, but I have no virtue. I hope Mr. will help you to promote the Han Dynasty!"

Seeing that he was kind and virtuous, he had military power and generals, but lacked counselors, he expected that he would be valued, so he agreed.

Li Jue and Guo Si drove millions of people in Luoyang to Chang'an. Dong Zhuo originally wanted to set fire to Luoyang, but Liu Bei tried to persuade him to stop him. Dong Zhuo was afraid that he would leave him, so he had no generals under his command, so he only loaded more than a thousand carts of good things, robbed the emperor and concubines, and actually went to Chang'an.

Seeing that Dong Zhuo treated the people like a livestock, Liu Bei felt unbearable and advised him: "The people in the world are the source of our food and clothing, and the emperor treats them well."

Dong Zhuo said: "If you don't have to rush, you will not be able to do it in full swing, and you may be afraid that the princes will pursue you!"

Liu Bei then said: "I am willing to lead troops to be the rear of the Duke Palace, but I forgot the Duke to advance slowly and not let the people suffer."

Dong Zhuo had no general in his hands, so he had to agree with Liu Bei's support.

The next day, Sun Jian was pushed to the front of the formation by the princes and was depressed. Before he came to attack Dong Zhuo, he met Huangfu Song through Nanyang and got the words left to him by King Liu Xie of Chu. He didn't believe it, but now he realized that these princes were all tigers and wolves and wanted to take the opportunity to swallow him.

He and his generals Cheng Jin, Huang Gai and Han Dang said: "It is better to die in the battlefield than to be annexed by the sinister thief!"

Cheng and Jin and the other two agreed, so they led only more than a thousand troops to enter Hulao Pass with him. Dong Zhuo stayed at Hulao Pass and defended Zhao Qin. When Dong Zhuo saw Dong Zhuo abandoning Luoyang and left, he felt surrendering. Seeing that Sun Jian came, he was frightened and immediately surrendered.

Cao Cao also rushed to the army and learned that Dong Zhuo and Liu Bei had abandoned Luoyang and fled, so he wanted to occupy Luoyang. Seeing that there was no one in the city, he had to give up.

When Sun Jian and Cao Cao saw that the imperial tomb was destroyed, there was no money or food in the palace, and there were people hiding corpses on the road, they couldn't help but scold them.

The two of them asked the princes to lead their troops to chase after him, and all the princes said they should not move lightly. Cao Cao was furious: "The son is not worthy of planning!" He led 20,000 troops and merged with Sun Jian to chase Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo ordered Liu Bei to lead the army behind the palace, and Jia Xu secretly sent someone to leave a letter to Liu Bei, asking him to set up an ambush in the Caoyang Valley. Cao Cao and Sun Jiandao arrived at the time of night, and there were no dense trees around him.

When Liu Bei was using Jia Xu, he spread dry grass on the road and burned mountains with fire, causing most of the soldiers to be killed and injured.

Sun Jian and Cao Cao were defeated and retreated. Just when Liu Bei led Zhang Fei, Guan Yu intercepted him from behind, the two armies were in a panic. Sun Jian retreated first, and Zhang Fei rushed forward. Sun Jian intended to retreat, but was stabbed by Zhang Fei and injured his left arm. Cheng Jinsan was saved.

Cao Cao knew that Zhang Fei was not brave enough to defeat Guan Yu, so he led the remaining troops to flee. Guan Yu ran a horse to kill Le Jin.

Sun Jian was surrounded by Huang Gai, Cheng Jin and Han Dang, and he was sad and said, "I regret not listening to what the King of Chu said. Where can I live without soldiers or food?"

Cheng Jin said: "The King of Chu treats his lord very well, and can go and serve. When the troops are abundant, he can return to Nanchang!"

Sun Jian handed over the scroll left by Liu Xie to Cheng Jin and Huang Gai, saying, "Everyone said that the King of Chu was a genius. I saw that he intended to proclaim himself emperor, so could he submit to him? In the future, the King of Chu became emperor, and we are all meritorious officials, and we have not rebel against the Han Dynasty!"

Cheng Jin said: "If the King of Chu wants to be emperor, the lord will help him and he can be granted the title of king and prince in the future; if he does not want to proclaim himself emperor, it is better to occupy one place to seek the funeral of the future."

Sun Jian said: "Since that's the case, I will go to Xiangyang Jin to meet the King of Chu to see if he has great ambitions."

The four of them rushed to Xiangyang day and night. In the morning, they dared to go outside the Shuijing Academy and urgently met King Liu Xie of Chu. Liu Xie was asking Sima for advice in the thatched cottage. Chen Qun had already gone to Xiangyang City yesterday, and Wang Yue and others dared not come in to report.

Sun Jian waited for half an hour and saw that Liu Xie had not finished his consultation with Sima Zheng. Sun Jian was frivolous and impetuous and said to Wang Yue: "How long does it take for Your Highness to come out? Do you don't want to see me?"

Wang Yue said: "Your Highness is good at thinking, Mr. Shui Jing is good at teaching, Shi Guangyuan is good at discerning, Cui Zhouping is good at asking questions, Meng Gongwei is good at answering, Zhou Yu and Yang Xiu are also children who are good at speaking and eloquent. Usually, they will not finish the matter in a day."

Sun Jian and the other two looked bleak, and they didn't know when they were going to wait. Xu Shu happened to be sleepy and got up an hour late. He hurried over and asked Wang Yue: "How long have they started?"

Wang Yue smiled and said, "Mr. Xu is one hour late. It just so happened that Lord Sun, the Marquis of Wucheng, wanted to see Your Highness. Please inform Mr. Xu on his behalf!"

Xu Shu said happily: "I heard that Lord Sun is brave, strong and resolute, loyal and powerful, killing the Yellow Turban, eliminating the Quxing, and now defeating the Dong thief. It is a great blessing to see him today."

Sun Jian said: "It's a pity that he was harmed by the traitor Yuan Shu and defeated by Liu Bei's children. Now he is in a mess and wants to serve the King of Chu!"

Xu Shu said: "There are all people in the Shuijing Academy who are willing to serve the King of Chu. Since the lord is willing to serve, you can enter directly."

Sun Jian shook his head and said, "You have a classmate with the King of Chu, so you can do this. I have already been under the King of Chu's tent. How dare I rush into the place where Your Highness can study and receive friends without authorization?"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "Since that's the case, sir, please wait for me to report on my behalf." Then he went straight into the thatched cottage and told Liu Xie that Sun Jian had arrived.

Liu Xie smiled at Sima Zheng and said, "My general of Dingbei University has arrived. Teacher, the student will leave for the time being!"

He walked out the door and turned to Xu Shu and said, "Don't Yuanzhi want to go with me?"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "Of course I'm willing!" Then he went to see Sun Jian with Liu Xie.

Seeing Liu Xie and Xu Shu coming out, Sun Jian hurriedly brought the three generals to the ground. Liu Xie said, "General Sun has made great contributions to the fight against the thief and is injured. No need to be polite, get up!"
