Three Kingdoms: I will return it ten thousand times, my lord, I will never keep it for myself

Chapter 143

Inside the ancient and solemn gate of Sishui Pass, a heroic general slowly walked in.

"Sun Taishou, my general has set up a banquet to welcome you and celebrate your success."

Liu Yao and Gongsun Zan stood in the main hall of Sishui Pass, waiting for Sun Jian and others.

When Sun Jian and his party stepped into the hall, their faces were not filled with the lofty sentiments of the past, but with unspeakable guilt and heaviness. They looked at each other, all with their heads down, and complex emotions flashing in their eyes - that was the self-blame for the unfinished business.

In order to seize Sishui Pass, they risked going out in advance, but they never expected that the road was full of thorns and heavy casualties, and they were almost defeated under the fierce attack of Hu Zhen.

But Liu Yao took one night to completely break through Sishui Pass, and there were very few casualties. Could it be that this person really has the talent to govern the world?

"Hahaha, General Liu is indeed the pillar of the Han Dynasty! Overnight, Sishui Pass changed hands. This feat is amazing. The admiration in my heart is like the surging river, endless!"

Sun Jian, this iron-blooded soldier, even in a foreign land, was moved by such a brilliant record. His admiration for the hero was beyond words.

"General Sun, you are too kind. How can Liu be worthy of such praise? In fact, it is relying on the bravery and fearlessness of the Jiangdong men. They used their flesh and blood to exhaust the spirit of the defenders of Sishui Pass. Brother Gongsun Bogui and I just took advantage of the situation and got a glimpse of the scenery inside the pass."

"This victory is the result of the dedication of the whole army, not the work of Liu alone. "

"However, since General Sun is a brave general in the coalition forces, his bravery and fearlessness are praised by people, but this time he was eager for merit, overstepped his authority and ignored military orders, which is really wrong! "

Liu Yao's face suddenly turned cold, and the air seemed to be condensed with an invisible layer of frost. His identity was not only the vanguard of this coalition, but also their leader. With such an identity, witnessing Sun Jian openly disobeying military orders and doing his own thing was tantamount to a loud slap in the face, severely slapping his dignity as the leader of the alliance.

He had to give him a beating.

At this moment, Sun Ce stepped forward, with a bit of sincerity and understanding in his tone, and slowly said:

General Liu, please forgive me! My father, in fact, is full of passion and can hardly restrain himself."

"As a veteran general, military exploits are his lifelong pursuit. He looks up to you and General Gongsun like two stars in the north sky, shining on the border with glorious military exploits and driving away the wolves of the grassland. That admiration and desire made him unwilling to give up, and vowed to work shoulder to shoulder with the two of you to create glory together."

"As for the battle of Sishui Pass, my father's heart is just hope I can use this as a bridge to narrow the gap between my achievements and those of the two generals. I did not intend to cross the line. If this move is abrupt and even makes a big mistake, I am willing to accept the punishment on behalf of my father. I only ask the general to be tolerant of his sincerity. "

Gongsun Zan, standing aside, looked at Liu Yao with a deep gaze, and then a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He whispered with a pun: "Haha, nephew Bofu, please don't be polite. I am quite surprised that you are willing to be punished for your father."

He turned to Liu Yao, and his tone was somewhat conciliatory: "General Liu, looking at General Sun's move, it is actually out of sincerity and eagerness to make achievements. Why not let the merits and demerits offset this time, neither reward nor punish, as a lesson for the future, what do you think?"

Liu Yao had no intention of severely punishing Sun Jian. He knew that in this precarious coalition, it was rare to find someone who was good at fighting, and Sun Jian was the best among them.

"In this case, General Sun, I hope you will be more cautious in the future. Let's stop this time, but remember - don't do it again!"

Sun Jian heard the words, and a big stone fell from his heart. He bowed and saluted, and his gratitude was overflowing: "Thank you for your magnanimity, Sun will definitely remember it in my heart, and will be more cautious in the future to serve the coalition!"

Sun Jian then changed his mind and walked forward.

"General Liu, "Sishui Pass has been broken, and the worry of food and grass is not a worry with Brother Meng De's strategy. What I am concerned about is that Hua Xiong, the thief general, is galloping here with a large army, intending to save the defeat."

Liu Yao heard the words, and a smile of approval appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he nodded slowly: "Good! General Sun has such a lofty ambition, which is fortunate for our army. Gu Yong, quickly count the food and grass and ensure that General Sun's troops are well-supplied before setting off. "

Sun Ce was overjoyed.

"Thank you, uncle! I will not fail in my mission in this battle!"

Sun Jian also stepped forward and saluted.

"General Liu is very righteous. I, Sun Wentai, will borrow these military equipment and supplies from you temporarily. We will overcome the difficulties together. I will return them double in the future."

After that, Sun Jian and his men left the hall.

LiuYao sighed lightly, revealing a little helplessness between his eyebrows, and shook his head slowly.

That Sun Jian is really a tough guy with a strong character and a tough mind. Never mind, never mind, everything in the world has its own destiny, let him do it according to his own heart.

"Brother, Sun Wentai is just a defeated general, why are you so humble and polite to him?"

Gongsun Xu walked to Liu Yao's side, his eyes full of confusion and doubt. He knew that his brother was gentle on the outside, but he had unfathomable wisdom and mind inside, and he always respected and treated people and things with precious respect.

But Gongsun Xu knew that Liu Yao had a sense of pride in his bones. He could even ignore the imperial power. Now he could tolerate the arrogance of Sun Jian and his group.

Haha, Ziyun, the unspoken doubts in your heart, how could I not know? Let me tell you in detail. The outcome of the battle between Sun Jian and Hua Xiong was already determined - Sun Jian will definitely lose! "

Gongsun Zan heard this and a solemn expression appeared on his face. He sighed and asked, "Now, Sun Jian's troops are well-equipped and their morale is recovering. How can you say that he will lose? "

Liu Yao chuckled and said:

Hua Xiong, this man is not an ordinary person, but a fierce general of the time. In terms of martial arts, Sun Jian, who is known as the "Jiangdong Tiger", can indeed compete with him, and even has the possibility of beheading him and seizing his flag. However, in this world, victory or defeat often does not depend on the strength of the body, but on the tenacity of the heart and the depth of wisdom."

"But unfortunately, he has been replaced by an anxiety to prove himself and desire a quick victory. The art of war says: "Haste makes waste", and his mentality at the moment is exactly the taboo of military strategists. Hua Xiong, cunning as a fox and sharp as an eagle, how can he miss such a God-given opportunity?""

"As long as Hua Xiong uses a little trick to lure him in, and then wait for him to tire, Sun Jian's defeat will be as easy as taking something from a bag. Therefore, I say that he will definitely fail, and it is not a lie. "
