Sun Ce was born by Wu, and so was Sun Jian's eldest son. In the turbulent years at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Sun Jian, as a local general, fought in the battlefield all the year round, and the important task of raising and educating his children fell on Mrs. Wu. And Mrs. Wu is also very good at educating children. She always tolerates, induces and indoctrinates them so that their children can understand and distinguish right from wrong. Therefore, Sun Ce and Sun Quan, brothers, respected each other's talents, took turns to take over their father's business, and finally pushed Wu to the highest peak, enjoying equal fame with Shu and Wei.
In the second year of Chuping (A.D. 19 1), Sun Jian died at the age of 37. Sun Ce is seventeen years old in name only. He transported Sun Jian's coffin back and buried it in Qu County (now Danyang County, Jiangsu Province). After that, Sun Ce crossed the river and settled in Jiangdu (now Yangzhou, Jiangsu), and married a handsome man, waiting for his full-fledged revenge for his father. Sun Ce is cheerful, straightforward, generous, good at listening to the opinions of subordinates, good at employing people, and has a sense of humor, so he won the support of scholars and people, who are willing to devote themselves to him.
Celebrity Zhang lived in Jiangdu when he lost his mother. Sun Ce visited many times and studied the general trend of the world with him. Sun Ce first expressed his views: "At present, the Han Dynasty is in decline, and there are many heroes in the world, and they are arrogant. No one helps the poor out of public interest. My late father and Yuan * * * broke Dong Zhuo, but failed. Unfortunately, they were hurt by Howie. Although I am young and shallow, I am determined to do something. Now, I'm going to find Yuan Shu, ask him to hand over my father's old staff, and then go to Danyang (Xuancheng, Anhui Province) to take refuge in my uncle Jason Wu to collect scattered troops, and take revenge on Wu Jun (Wuxian, Jiangsu Province) and Huiji (Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province) in the east to be foreign governors of the imperial court. What do you think? "
Zhang pleaded, "I know very little, and I still have clothes on me." It's really hard for me to help you. "
Sun Ce further demanded: "Your famous people are well known. People from all directions are eager for praise. Today's business, my plan, success or failure depends on your word. You must tell me frankly. If I aim high and avenge my blood, I will never forget your kindness. " When it comes to emotion, Sun Ce unconsciously shed tears in her eyes.
A cavalry in Sun Ce, after committing the crime, escaped into the barracks in Yuan Shu and hid in the stable. Sun Ce sent people after him and went straight to Yuan Shu camp, where he found the criminals and beheaded them on the spot. After the incident, Sun Ce went to see Yuan Shu, explained the situation and apologized to him. Yuan Shu said, "Soldiers are rebellious. What is gratitude when they are sick? " ("Reflection? Wu Shu? Sun Wei's Inverse Biography) further enhanced Sun Ce's reputation, and the army was more in awe of Sun Ce.
Yuan Shu is a man of repeated actions and often breaks his word. At first, he promised to appoint Sun Ce as the satrap of Jiujiang. Soon, he switched to Chen Ji from Danyang. Later, Yuan Shu attacked Xuzhou and asked Lu Kang, the prefect of Shu County (now southwest of Lujiang, Anhui Province), for thirty thousand welcome rations. Lu Kang refused to give them, and Yuan Shu was furious. It happened that Sun Ce had visited Liu Kang before, but Liu Kang only asked the guest of honor to receive him and didn't come out to meet him. So Sun Ce bears a grudge. Yuan Shu sent Sun Ce to attack Lu Kang, and made another wish, saying, "I used Chen Ji wrongly in the past, but every time I hated him, my original intention was defeated. If you are well today, the Lijiang River is really beautiful. " ("Reflection? Wu Shu? Sun Qiu reverse biography ")
Sun Ce was ordered to attack and take Lujiang. Yuan Shu reneged and appointed Liu Xun, an old subordinate, as the satrap of Lujiang. Yuan Shu and Sun Ce are always disappointed. Previously, Emperor Xian of Han sent Liu You as the secretariat of Yangzhou. Shouchun is the former site of Yangzhou, and Shouchun has been occupied by Yuan Shu. Liu You crossed the Yangtze River with the help of Sun Ce's uncle Jason Wu and cousin Sun Ben, and established the national politics in Qu 'a. This time, Sun Ce attacked Lujiang, Liu You was very worried, because he knew that Jason Wu and Sun Ben were appointed by Yuan Shu, and worried that they would unite Yuan Shu and Sun Ce to annex themselves, so he forced them out by force, so Wu Jing and Sun Ben had to retreat to Liyang (now Anhui County). Liu ordered and defended Hengjiang, while Brinton defended the Party's mouth and confronted Yuan Shu. Yuan Shu appointed his old subordinate Qu Hui as Yangzhou secretariat, Jason Wu as overseer, and Sun Ben led the troops to attack Brinton. The two sides confronted each other for a long time, but there was no result.
Danyangzhi was a captain of Sun Jian. He found that Yuan Shu's political morality was untenable, so he advised Sun Ce to take the opportunity to accept Jiangdong. So Sun Ce went to see Yuan Shu. Sun Ce said to Yuan Shu, "My family used to be very kind to Jiangdong people. I am willing to lead troops to help my uncle conquer Hengjiang. After conquering Hengjiang, I can also recruit local foot soldiers, maybe 30,000 people. At that time, I will lead them to help you calm down the world and achieve great things. " Yuan Shu knew that Sun Ce was dissatisfied with himself, but he thought that Liu You occupied Qu, Wang Lang occupied Huiji, and Sun Ce could do nothing, so he agreed to his request and told the court to appoint Sun Ce as a captain. Sun Ce then led his father's staff and hundreds of visitors to the east. Along the way, people kept coming to vote, and Sun Ce's team kept expanding. By the time we arrived in Liyang, it had reached five or six thousand people. At that time, Zhou Yu's uncle Shang Zhou was appointed as the governor of Danyang. Zhou Yu led the troops to meet Sun Ce and sponsored the shop. Sun Ce was overjoyed and said to Zhou Yu, "With your support, great things will be achieved." So, Sun Ce immediately led the troops to cross the river (see the Battle of Pingjiang East in Sun Ce), attacked Hengjiang and the Party, and conquered them one after another, while Neng Fan and Brinton failed. Then, Sun Ce continued to attack. "Everything is broken, and I dare not be the front. The military order is purged and the people are pregnant." ("Reflection? Wu Shu? Sun Ce attacked Liu You's Niuzhu camp and seized all the food and weapons in the warehouse.
At that time, Cheng Peng Xiang Li Xue and Xia Pi Xiang Yu Rong all attached to Liu You, with him as the leader, Li Xue occupied Moling City, and Yu Rong was stationed in the south of the county. Sun Ce attacked Tathagata first, killed more than 50,000 people, cracked his guts, closed the camp door and dared not move. Sun Ce attacked Betty, and Betty broke through and fled. At this time, Yu, Mu and others gathered soldiers to rob the cattle. Sun Ce immediately returned to the army, defeated them and captured more than 10,000 people. Then attack Rong Rong: In the battle, Sun Ce was shot in the leg and could not ride a horse. His soldiers took him back to the camp to heal. Someone said to Rong Rong, "Sun Lang was shot dead by an arrow!" At that time, Sun Ce was young, and although he had an official title, people called him "Sun Lang". Sasakawa was overjoyed when he heard of Sun Ce's death, and sent troops to confront Sun Ce's troops. Sun Ce first sent hundreds of soldiers and horses to challenge and lure the enemy, and set an ambush in the back. When the enemy soldiers attacked, Sun Ce pretended to be defeated, led the enemy into the encirclement, and then ordered an ambush to kill more than a thousand people. Sun Ce took advantage of the victory to attack Rong Camp and ordered his soldiers to shout, "What about Sun Lang?" The sound shocked the enemy camp, and the ground shook, scaring many enemy soldiers to flee overnight. Sasakawa saw that Sun Ce was still there, so he became more and more vigilant and guarded.
Sun Ce saw that Rong Rong was in danger, and it was difficult to conquer at the moment, so he led his troops south. He first defeated Liu You in Meiling (now Nanling County, Anhui Province), and then transferred troops to conquer Hu Zhe (now Nanhu Shu Zhen, Jiangning County, Jiangsu Province) and Jiangcheng (now Jurong County, Jiangsu Province). Then, reorganize the troops and go to Qu to attack Liu You.
Lu You went to war with Sun Ce and suffered a crushing defeat. He fled to Dantu (now Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province), and Sun Ce entered Qu (see the Battle of Qu A), and stayed in Xingping for two years.
At first, people heard the arrival of Sun Langbing and fled in panic. Officials often abandoned the city and walked through the grass. Later, it was gradually discovered that everywhere Sun Ce's army went, the sergeants strictly obeyed orders and did not dare to plunder the people, and Qiu did nothing. As a result, the people were very happy and scrambled to reward the troops with cattle and wine. Sun Ce paid tribute to the soldiers, issued a proclamation and told his subordinate counties: "Liu You, fellow Rong and those who came down to surrender don't ask anything; Those who are willing to join the army can join the army, exempt from family tax corvee; If you don't want to join the army, you will never be forced! "
Zhang saw that Sun Ce's words were generous, and his look was full of loyalty. He was deeply moved and finally expressed his views to Sun Ce: "Wang Daoling was late in the Zhou Dynasty, and Qi Huangong and Jin Wengong appeared;" Once the royal family was peaceful, the princes could only serve the Zhou Dynasty and do their duty as courtiers. You are brave and good at fighting. If you can really live in Danyang and summon Wu Jun and Huiji military forces, then Jingyang can destroy peace and revenge is just around the corner. At that time, relying on the Yangtze River to strive for greatness, sweep away heroes and rectify the Han Dynasty, your achievements will never be inferior to those of Qi Huan and Jinwen, and you will be immortal, and you will be more than just a foreign vassal. At present, the world is chaotic and full of difficulties. If you want to make contributions, go to the south, and I will support you with my friends. "
