Jiangxia, Xiling City.

The traces of the great battle have been erased, the streets have been cleaned, and it is hard to imagine that there was a battle for the city not long ago.

Except for the people who did not dare to go out at will, the city has returned to its former peace.

Of course, at this time, the chief official has changed from Grandfather Huang to Sun Jian.

Walking on the street, looking at the wide street, Sun Jian couldn't help but smile and said:

"This place is really worthy of being the Jiangxia Governor's Office, and this street alone is much wider than my Yang City!".

Yangcheng was Sun Jian's previous residence in Yuzhou.

Although he made great contributions to Dong, Yuan Shu played him as the assassin of Yuzhou.

However, the court was chaotic, so the letter of appointment did not come.

In addition, Kong Ling, the assassin of Yuzhou at that time, was alive, so Sun Jian could only be stationed in Yangcheng, a small county northwest of Yingchuan near Luoyang.

Even the grain and grass used in the army need to rely on Yuan Shu and Kong Ling.

The reason why he obeyed Yuan Shu's order to go south this time was partly because Yuan Shu counted his boss and partner.

Most of the reason is that he desperately wants a piece of his own territory!

That kind of life when he was away from home and had nowhere to live, he had enough!

Listening to Sun Jian's emotion, Cheng Pu smiled with understanding

"Yangcheng is just a small city on the side, how can it be compared to Jiangxia?"

"Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the people of Nanyang have fled and some have moved here. "

"In the past few years, passenger ships from Jingzhou and Yangzhou to the south and north need to pass through Jiangxia. "

"As Jiangxia County, this Xiling is naturally prosperous!"

"Yes, this place is prosperous, and it can be the foundation!"

Sun Jian nodded yes, and was about to speak, when he heard a young voice behind him

"Uncle, our army's losses in this battle have been counted!

Looking back, I saw that Sun Xiang had already chased after him with a bamboo slip.

"Oh, how much has our army won this time?"

Sun Jian didn't take the bamboo slip, but asked directly.

Sun Xiang knew that Sun Jian had always disliked documents, and he was about to show the bamboo slips:

"Uncle Qiqi, according to the children's statistics, our army suffered more than 3,000 casualties in this battle!".

"More than 2,000 of them were damaged under Yuxian Mountain, and nearly 1,000 people were lost in the siege battle!"

"Lost as many as 3,000 people?".

Sun Jian frowned when he heard this.

There are only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command.

This time, Sun Xiang counted the soldiers and horses of the headquarters in addition to the prisoners of Jingzhou, that is to say, this time, in addition to the 4,000 prisoners of the Jingzhou army, they also reduced their personnel by one-seventh!

Seeing Sun Jian like this, Cheng Pu hurriedly smiled:

"Don't be surprised, it's already good to lose like this!"

"If it weren't for Mr. Xiansi's reminder, my army would probably have suffered more than this loss in this battle!"

"That's the same thing!".

Sun Jian nodded and agreed with this.

Although there are more than 3,000 people, if there is no reminder from Xiao Zhe that he has been prepared, then I am afraid that this battle will be wiped out directly!

"Then how much has our army gained?"

When he asked, Sun Xiang smiled and said

"Uncle, our army has gained a lot in this battle!"

"More than 3,000 prisoners alone!"

"400,000 yuan of grain, 7,000 catties of gold, and more than 8 million copper coins. "

"Why are there so many?".

Sun Xiang's words shocked Sun Jian's heart.

Three thousand captives are still second, the key is money and food!

If you have money and food, you can expand the army!

You must know that the reason why Yuan Shu fought with Liu Biao this time was because Yuan Shu asked Liu Biao for 200,000 yuan of grain in vain, and he was angry and angry.

Unexpectedly, just one Xiling City stored 400,000 grains.

With so much food, even if he doubles the expansion of the army, it will be enough to eat for two years!

Facing Sun Jian's shock, Sun Xiang smiled proudly

"Uncle, don't underestimate this Xiling!".

"This place is a traffic artery, and since Liu Biao appointed Huang Zu as the Jiangxia Taishou, the grain alone has been transferred three times!"

"Just these hundreds of thousands of grains, that's what Huang Zu old thief left over from selling a few times of grain!"

"Otherwise, there will be more grain in Xiling City!"

"I see!".

Sun Jian heard what was going on, and nodded spontaneously.

Then he scolded again:

"Liu Biao Lao Erguo is a dog who guards the house!".

There are so many things, I would rather offend Yuan Shu than take them out.

If he had so many armaments and materials, I am afraid that he would have recruited and expanded the army a long time ago, and beheaded Yuan Shu off his horse!

He was thinking about it, but Sun Xiang still said to himself

"In addition to gold, silver, money and grain, there are still 3,000 iron armor, 5,000 armor, and 10,000 leather armor in the treasury. "

"Knives, spears, swords, halberds, and spears are in the tens of thousands. "

"Even if our army is all dressed up, they are still rich!".

"As for tents, chariots and horses, cloth, brass and iron, there is more abundance!"

Speaking of this, he already said with a smile on his face

"Uncle, compared to our losses, this time the gain is not small!,".

"Good, great good!".

"No wonder you kid can't close his mouth with a smile!".

Sun Jian said, it was difficult to hide the joy in his heart.

If escaping death is a happy event, then these gains are even more joyful!

After a long time of poverty, he had never felt such a rich moment.

With this money, food, and armor, as long as he is given half a year, he can double the size of his army!

Greatly improve the combat effectiveness of his command!

What a sea change!

Thinking of this, Xiao Zhe's appearance couldn't help but appear in his mind.

Just a ploy can turn things around, and if such people are under his command, where will the world go?

As soon as this thought arose, he could no longer fall, and he hurriedly said:

"I don't know if the Boyang Department can be contacted?"

"Is Mr. Xiao okay?"

"We've been connected!".

Cheng Pu knew that Sun Jian was concerned about Xiao Zhe's safety, so he stroked his beard and smiled:

"It is said that we have arrived at Yunshe now, and we can reach Xiling in three days at most!"

"That's it!".

Sun Jian nodded and smiled, he couldn't wait to meet Xiao Zhe, a young gentleman.

But at this moment, a call suddenly came from afar:

"My lord, General Sun Ben has an urgent report!".

Hearing this, Sun Jian, Cheng Pu and the others trembled in their hearts.

Sun Ben came with an urgent report, could it be that there was any bad news?

If Xiao Zhe is damaged, what can be done?

Sun Jian hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the soldier who reported the order and said

"What an emergency, come quickly!".

The soldier ran out of breath, and suddenly saw Sun Jian's eyes wide, and he was afraid in his heart, and he gasped for a long breath before stammering

"Lord... Lord, it's good news!".

"General Sun Ben of our army led his corporal to die in Yunshe, and successfully ambushed Huang Zu's soldiers and horses. "

"More than 1,000 enemies were killed, 3,000 prisoners were captured, and the rest were burdened with countless loads!".

"Huang Zu and the deputy general Lu Jie, they were all killed!".

As soon as he said this, Sun Jian, Cheng Pu, and Sun Xiang were suddenly speechless, and their faces were all wonderful.

The news from Sun Ben is good news

not only broke the enemy army, but also beheaded Huang Zu Lu Jie

What's going on!
