There are always two sides to everything.
For example, Wang Zheng, as a later time traveler, has an understanding of the historical trends of the Three Kingdoms. Although he has a prophet-like information advantage, at the same time, he cannot help but think too little or too much.
For example, because Xu Xuan's name was unknown (in fact, he had a name, he just didn't know it), Wang Zheng didn't pay much attention to it, and he suffered a big loss.
And Wang Zheng paid too much attention to famous heroes like Sun Ce.
In his eyes, he always felt that the founder of one of the future Three Kingdoms, a man who conquered Jiangdong at a young age, must be a talented and strategic figure, an almost perfect political figure.
how could it be possible?
He forgot that even those romantic figures throughout the ages would have troubles, have many shortcomings, and suffer a lot.
It's just that those who can achieve great things will become more courageous with each setback, and will grow rapidly in the process of continuous losses.
Not to mention that Sun Ce, Cao Cao, and Liu Bei, the three founders of the country, were like this when they were in their twenties. Even emperors such as Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bang had never made mistakes and suffered big losses when they were young.
Of course, compared to others, Sun Ce made too serious mistakes when he was young.
It was so severe that it left him no chance to correct or grow.
Sun Ce came to Kaiyang for no particular reason. It was purely a whim.
Of course, it was indeed aimed at him.
Speaking of which, their experiences are quite similar and they have a lot in common.
Although Wang Zheng was a bandit, Sun Ce was not from a wealthy family.
When Wang Zheng launched an uprising in Qingzhou in the first year of Xingping, Sun Ce also recruited hundreds of people in the name of his uncle Wu Jing, the prefect of Danyang. Then he went to Yuan Shu in Shouchun to ask for his father Sun Jian's old troops, and obtained more than a thousand horses.
.
Wang Zheng attacked Zhao County, captured Guangrao, and conquered Linzi. He was victorious and conquered all the way. At the same time that he officially made his name, Sun Ce also conquered Lujiang, Danyang and other places, which directly shocked Liu Yao and divided the main roads to defend them.
, Sun Lang's power also resounded throughout Jiangdong.
Even in the early stages of development, both of them faced the dilemma of Wu Sheng and Wen Shu.
The key is that both of them became famous at a young age. Wang Zheng is certainly not as good as the weak one now, but Sun Ce is not yet twenty at this time.
In addition, the two states were not far apart, and news came and went frequently. Wang Zheng was trapped in the fact that the intelligence network had not been established. He did not understand or care about Sun Ce, but Sun Ce was very different.
Sun Ce had been thinking about this yellow turban thief who claimed to be "Zhang Jiao's reincarnation" for a long time.
And at the beginning of this year, it reached a peak.
Because Sun Ce had made many military exploits, Yuan Shu had declared him to be an eighth-rank general with a salary of 800 yuan.
Ban the title to punish the bandits!
The person who died means cut off, exhausted, and also refers to the broken bones.
Yuan Shu gave him this name, originally intending to inherit his father's title of "General Polu", but Sun Ce was overjoyed when he learned that Yuan Shu intended to invade Xuzhou.
On the first day he entered Zhongli, Sun Ce began to gear up, thinking about hunting Xuzhou and competing with that "Tiangong General".
Later, when Mi Heng went on a mission to Yangzhou, he persuaded Yuan Shu to agree to form an alliance with some clever words. Sun Ce was naturally frustrated, but after all, he could not disobey his nominal lord for his own fighting spirit.
The fight was unsuccessful, but his interest in Wang Zheng became more and more intense.
Therefore, he took the initiative to ask Ying to be an envoy, just to go to Kaiyang to meet Wang Zheng in person.
Meng Lang's actions were indeed done by Sun Ce.
As the saying goes, there is only the wrong name, but there is no wrong nickname.
With Xiang Yu's bravery and unrivaled majesty, his image in the minds of later generations is that of a genius general, not a qualified emperor, let alone a smaller overlord?
In the original history of the Three Kingdoms, Guo Jia made an accurate comment when discussing Sun Ce with Cao Cao: He who is unprepared, has a quick temper and lacks strategy is a brave man who will surely die at the hands of a villain one day.
Nothing else matters, but the last sentence is really a prophetic word, pointing out a big problem for Sun Ce as a monarch.
Light and unprepared.
Not only does he take the lead when fighting on the battlefield, but he also always likes to wear a white dragon fish suit on weekdays to put himself in danger.
In addition to inheriting the unstable character from his father, the bigger reason for not paying attention to his own safety is that Sun Ce is too confident.
Too confident in his own personal martial prowess.
.....
In the original history, in July of this year, Sun Ce would truly shock Jiangdong.
In the second year of Xingping, Sun Ce borrowed 3,000 troops from Yuan Shu with the Imperial Seal, plus his own troops, to help his uncle Wu Jing attack Liu Yao, the governor of Yangzhou.
The troops arrived at Liyang, defeated Fan Neng and Zhang Ying, captured Hengjiang, and gained access to two Yangtze River ferries. They then crossed the Yangtze River eastward, defeated Liu Yao, and obtained all his grain, weapons and other luggage, and even captured Niu
Mount Nagisa.
Niuzhu Mountain was better known as Caishiji in later generations.
Li Bai, a poet and poet, sank into the river here to catch the moon.
Yu Yunwen, the "one man in history", relied on 20,000 Song troops to defeat the 150,000 Jin soldiers who invaded the south with fire attacks. Later, Chang Yuchun, "the most fierce general in the Ming Dynasty", wielded his sword and defeated the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty.
After occupying this place, Sun Ce successively broke through Muling guarded by Xue Li, Xiapi, Meiling, Hushu, Jiangcheng and other places guarded by Zuo Rong, and went straight to Qu'a, Wu County occupied by Liu Yao. Liu Yao was defeated in the battle.
Retreat to Dantu.
After this battle, Sun Ce's popularity reached its peak, no less than that of his father.
To be able to achieve such a feat, Sun Ce must have been planning for a long time and made many plans before doing so.
Therefore, after meeting Wang Zheng, Sun Ce wanted to return immediately.
It's just that Wang Zheng was too polite and enthusiastic. There was a big banquet for three days and a small banquet for two days. There were a lot of military affairs later and he couldn't spare time to accompany Sun Ce. He also ordered Yu Jin to arrange some warriors to take him on horseback and ride to the side of Sheliu Camp. This can be said to be considerate and considerate.
After all, Sun Ce was still a young man at heart, so he was a little embarrassed to leave after being treated like this.
On the other hand, the world is in chaos, all heroes have risen together, Yuan Shu's territory is intertwined, and there are many forces. Sun Ce has been fighting almost every day for the past year, and he wants to have a moment of rest but can't. Now it is easy to enjoy such leisure and ease.
time, I felt quite reluctant to part with it.
Of course, the little bully can't really be the kind of person who only cares about having fun.
Sun Ce originally wanted to divert from Xiapi and go straight to Pengcheng, but when passing by the border of Langya Kingdom, he heard the news that Wen Chou was besieging Kaiyang, and he originally backed down.
He is belligerent, but not stupid.
The two brothers Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu are now becoming enemies of life and death. If Wen Chou goes down to Kaiyang, he will point directly at Pengcheng. The four pillars of Hebei are not ordinary people. If both sides are in full force, Sun Ce will not be afraid, but at this time
If he and his five hundred cavalrymen ran up to Wen Chou, wouldn't they be bringing food to his door?
But it was Mi Heng who was full of confidence and bluntly said that Wen Chou's move would lead to death. Not only would Kaiyang not lose anything, but Wen Chou's move would even lead to death. This made Sun Ce half-convinced and finally gave up his plan to return to Yangzhou immediately and just ordered
Bu Qu slowed down and inquired about news while walking slowly.
After all, Sun Ce was still confident that he was a good judge of people. He had never met Wang Zheng, but he already knew Mi Heng very well.
This Confucian scholar is ignorant, arrogant and arrogant. He is his own master. If he is a mediocre person, he will never make excuses and just flatter him.
But just halfway through the journey, he received the news that Wang Zheng had defeated Yuan Jun and even shot Wen Chou dead. Sun Ce had a smile on his face, but there was quite a stir in his heart.
Di Gui Wen Chou, one of the four courtyard pillars in Hebei Province.
How could such a tiger general die so easily at the hands of Wang Zheng?
After Sun Ce summarized the collected intelligence, he pondered for a long time and couldn't help but admire Wang Zheng's decisive decision.
He was also a well-versed general in the army, and after some reasoning, he understood that it was exactly as Mi Heng said, being ugly in writing would lead to your own death!
First, Wang Zheng had obviously known about Wen Chou's invasion for a long time, and even ordered Kaiyang to make preparations in advance. However, Wen Chou didn't know it and went into battle lightly in an attempt to make a surprise attack.
Secondly, the commander and the army are far away, the rear is unstable, and if the enemy enters, most ordinary people will either rush to help immediately to protect the city, or they will abandon the city first and save the people after losing the land.
, retaining energy in order to counterattack.
However, Wang Zheng was calm in the face of difficulties and sharpened in the face of setbacks, but he thought about encircling and annihilating the invading enemies, annihilating them all, and deterring other potential enemies!
This made Sun Ce feel sympathetic to each other. Although this son was young and a bandit, his courage and strategy were rare even among the Yellow Turbans, even from prominent families.
Sun Ce even felt that among his peers in the world, apart from himself, he was probably the only one who could compare to Zhou Yu, who was a close friend who went to court to worship his mother.
Of course, what Sun Ce was most curious about was the weirdness in this battle.
Wen Chou was not a mediocre general, and the Jizhou army was a soldier capable of hundreds of battles.
Whether it was Yu Jin's stubborn defense or Wang Zheng's final siege, the success allowed Sun Ce to see the information that was not written in the spy report at the first time.
The soldiers under Wang Zheng's command are not simple, and they are definitely not comparable to ordinary yellow turban thieves!
During the few days he stayed in Kaiyang, he went back and forth in the camp, met with the generals, observed secretly, and verified his guess.
Although it is clear that the true elite of Wangzheng has not been revealed, you can only tell the autumn by seeing a leaf.
The soldiers of the earth army are still strong young men, with high morale and strict military discipline. The legendary heaven army is even more impressive.
The key is that most people admire Wang Zheng, which makes Sun Ce a little unbelievable.
As for local governance, although Jin Yu was a military commander, he was also a great talent. With the cooperation of Ni Heng, a series of measures were introduced one after another to divide the land, appease the people, encourage farming, and seek talents. Before his eyes, the foundation became more and more solid, and the requirements were
It looks like something is done.
