When it was time to assemble, Li Yuguo led his troops to Sun Jian's team. With Sun Ce's introduction, he successfully met Sun Jian and others.
Sun Ce took Li Yuguo and said affectionately: "Hugo, come on, let me introduce you. This is my father, Sun Jian and Sun Wentai, the governor of Changsha, Marquis of Wucheng."
Li Yuguo took a step forward, clasped his fists and said, "Li Yuguo, the last general, pays homage to General Sun Jian."
Sun Jian squinted his eyes, looked at Li Yuguo and said, "Are you the Li Yuguo who helped my son rescue the siege in Luoyang?"
"Back to General, that's right." Li Huguo said politely.
Sun Jian said: "Okay, in that case, let's set up a small seat in the military tent and let General Li sit there."
"This..." Sun Ce stepped forward and said, "Father, General Li is highly skilled in martial arts and has unparalleled bravery. How about letting him sit with me?"
"Nonsense, you are my eldest son. Doesn't sitting with you make me equal to me?" Sun Jian said.
Looking at Sun Jian, Li Yuguo smiled and said nothing. He said to Sun Ce: "Thank you very much, Brother Sun, for your kindness. In fact, I have already had dinner. There is no need to pay any more courtesy. General Wentai, I will go to train my troops first."
Sun Jian glanced at Li Yuguo: "I won't send it away."
Sun Ce was filled with indignation when he saw that Li Yuguo was so unpopular. As soon as Li Yuguo left, he said: "Father, you are really confused. After all, Li Yuguo is also General Yamen, and he is also the prefect of Yiyang County. In terms of status, he is not lower than us. Father Why do you neglect him so much?"
"Young master, you don't understand. This Li Yuguo doesn't have the name of a prince. He came to us just to borrow a place temporarily. If he doesn't want to, he can go to the miscellaneous camp. We can take him in and let him use our Jiangdong." It is already a great honor to be given the title of a banner, so this is not a slight, but he is not qualified." The old general Cheng Pu next to him said with a smile.
Another veteran also said: "Yes, this guy is young and frivolous, and he came with only 5,000 soldiers to defect. There are only 5,000 soldiers... Tsk, tsk, it is said that they are still the most elite troops of the two armies, Yiyang County and Hong Kong Rural counties are also poor places, and there are not enough people like this to make friends with."
Everyone in the commander's tent was having a meal, and Li Huguo came to the camp where the brothers were, eating steamed buns and drinking mountain spring water.
Zhou Cang stuffed a piece of rabbit meat into Li Huguo's steamed bun. He said angrily: "Brother, such a heroic figure, is so looked down upon by those guys who look down on others. I'm really angry!"
"I can't hold it in for a long time. Wait until I go over and take out some of their heads!" Guan Er was about to go up with a big knife.
Zhang Xiu quickly stopped Guan Er and said, "General, wait a minute, I believe big brother has a plan. Big brother, what are your plans?"
Li Yuguo took a sip of water and fell into deep thought. Among the Sun family, the only person Li Yuguo admired was Sun Quan. When the Warring States period was full of disputes and the feudal princes were fighting fiercely, the Sun family group in the south was They quietly grew their power. Since ancient times, the Yangtze River had natural dangers. Every prince who wanted to cross the Yangtze River had to weigh his own strength. Therefore, the Sun Group gradually developed its own armed forces.
However, Sun Jian's power-mindedness is too heavy, and he has value for the people around him as a measure of whether to reuse or not. He is so kind to his own people that he can't be picky, but except for the Jiangdong nobles, they are very average. , which is why the people of the Sun family are all from Jiangdong, but few people from Jiangbei defect to them.
Li Yuguo said: "That's all, they are short-sighted. That is their business. We are not here to defect to them. We are just here to borrow the banners of their princes. Don't leave your military training behind while you are waiting here. By the way... Zhou Cang, have you prepared the food and grass that you were asked to prepare?"
"Haha, get ready. One hundred thousand stones of food and grass are hidden deep in the mountains. But brother, there is one thing I don't understand. I heard that Shouchun Yuan Shu personally distributed food and grass to the coalition of princes, and it was provided for free. Why should we Prepare your own food and grass?" Zhou Cang said.
Li Yuguo glanced at him: "What if Yuan Shu enriched his own pocket and refused to distribute our food and grass?"
As soon as Li Yuguo said this, people around him nodded. Zhang Xiu said: "I have long heard that Yuan Shu's reputation is not very good, and he is not righteous at all and is extremely stingy. Such a person cannot be relied on. I think eldest brother If we do it right, we can rely on ourselves and not rely on anyone else!”
"Yes!" Li Yuguo stood up, "What if Yuan Shu sees that I am weak and refuses to give us food and grass, then I am waiting to die? It is better to rely on heaven and earth than to rely on myself."
Li Yuguo was also prepared for this, because Yuan Shu would indeed withhold food and grass, or even not distribute food and grass. Sun Jian, the governor of Changsha, was one of the victims. In Li Yugo's view, Jiangdong Tiger Sun Jian's military force ranked first among the eighteen princes. Third, when the Yellow Turban Army occupied Wancheng, Sun Jian ascended the city, killed more than 20 thieves, and flew to seize a tree to stab Zhao Hong off his horse. Among the eighteen princes, Sun Jian contributed the most, which made Dong Zhuo very fearful and wanted to marry Sun Jian. .
Such a hero was deprived of food and fodder by Yuan Shu, not to mention Li Hugo.
At this time, the eighteen princes from all over the world came to live in front of Sishui Pass. Li Yuguo followed Sun Jian's team to watch the ceremony. Although he was well prepared, he was also shocked by the shocking scene in front of him. Living.
A total of half a million troops, at a glance, overwhelming, each holding a flag, is majestic and spectacular.
If these eighteen princes were of one heart and one mind, how could they be afraid of the likes of Dong Zhuo and Lu Bu? Under this huge formation, all the soldiers and horses were arranged neatly, demonstrating their military power, trying to make their own soldiers and horses stand out among the others.
There were shouts, drum beats, and shouts of killing.
The war has not yet begun, but it is already powerful and powerful, and Li Hugo is alone beside Sun Jian, following him all the way to the alliance. On the way, Sun Ce pulled Li Hugo's sleeve: "Brother Hugo, are you really sorry?" Come on, I didn’t expect that my father’s men would be so repulsive to outsiders, and that my father would go so far.”
"It doesn't matter, there's nothing we can do about it. Who told me that Yiyang County is weak and the place is barren? To be honest, my five thousand soldiers are the most powerful warriors selected by Yiyang County and Hongnong County. Yes, but in front of the princes, this is nothing at all, just like the Jiangdong Army. These five thousand soldiers like me are not even as good as a toe of the Jiangdong Army. Therefore, General Sun’s attitude is reasonable. things in."
Li Yuguo rolled his eyes and said, "What about Mr. Cao?"
