At The Beginning of The Game, The Five Tiger Generals Were Intercepted

Nanyang County Government Office, Wancheng County Governor's Mansion.

"Master Taishou, Qiao Mao, the governor of Dongjun County, sent three official documents, ordering the county guards from all over the world to attack Dong Zhuo. Now Yuan Shao, the governor of Bohai Sea, has raised the flag of righteousness and invited all heroes from all over the world to come to Beijing to serve as king!"

Zhang Zi's heart was filled with boredom, it was really a wave of ups and downs, Yuan Shu's matter still made him burnt out, Yuan Shao took the opportunity to raise troops again!

"Jiang Zhubo, I have just been appointed by Dong Zhuo to serve as the governor of Nanyang County, including the new Jingzhou Mu Liu Biao who has just accepted Dong Zhuo's appointment. Is this going to be a rebellion?"

Jiang Zhubo is the closest person to Zhang Zi, and he came from Yingchuan to follow him. If there is anything in Nanyang, Zhang Zi will discuss with Jiang Zhubo.

"Master Taishou, it's really a dilemma! If we respond to Yuan Shao, then we will be the military commander. But once we leave Wancheng, will we be able to come back? Yuan Shuke has been eyeing Luyang!"

Why doesn't Zhang Zi understand this truth, and he is also worried about it.

"Yes, but if we don't respond to Yuan Shao, then Yuan Shu can also use this name to attack Wancheng! Thirty-six counties of the thirty-seven counties in Nanyang County have secretly communicated with Yuan Shu. It is estimated that Yuan Shu's soldiers and horses are stronger than ours now. And more!"

Jiang Zhubo showed embarrassment, and he has no good way at the moment. If it's okay to let him handle some government affairs, the strategy of this kind of general trend of forces is really difficult for him!

"Master Taishou, in my humble opinion, it is better to be quiet now than to move! Wancheng is tall and has sufficient supplies. There are 10,000 defenders in the city, which is enough to protect itself! We can first observe the battle between Dong Zhuo and Yuan Shao, and then we will continue according to the situation. Make a decision!"

Zhang Zi nodded helplessly, if he wants soldiers but no soldiers, if he wants generals no generals, even if Zhang Liang comes back to life, there is nothing he can do now!

"That's the only way to go. I hope that Dong Zhuo's ability can overwhelm the Yuan brothers, so that we can have a chance!"

"Report!"

A soldier rushed in from the door, looking very anxious.

"Why are you so flustered? Could it be that Yuan Shu hit the city?"

Zhang Zi stared at the soldier, afraid that he would confirm his guess.

"I would like to report to the prefect that Sun Jian, the prefect of Changsha, led an army of 20,000. Sun Jian claimed that he would use the road to go to Beijing to attack Dong Zhuo, and hoped that the prefect would provide some food and grass."

Zhang Zi breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Yuan Shu didn't call, it would be the best news for him!

"Master Jiang, Sun Jian is begging for food and grass, shall we give it or not?"

"I can't give it!"

This time Jiang Zhubo answered quickly without any hesitation.

"My lord, Sun Jian is just the prefect of Changsha. He is at the same level as you. How can he have the right to allocate our Nanyang's food and grass? Besides, Sun Jian is a wolf with ambition and killed Wang Rui, the governor of Jingzhou without authorization. I think he has no good intentions!"

Zhang Zi was about to die from a headache. If he had known about this situation, he would not have come to Nanyang to take office no matter what!

"But Sun Jian was brave. I heard that Liu Zhang, the general of the guard at that time, praised him a lot! If we don't give it, we will definitely have a grudge with him. Once Sun Jian and Yuan Shu jointly attack Nanyang, what should we do?"

Jiang Zhubo was left speechless by the question, and he felt remorse in his heart. If he had known about this mess earlier, he would not have followed Zhang Zi to his death if he was beaten to death!

"How about this, Lord Prefect, first send someone to tell Sun Jian that there is a severe drought in Nanyang and the treasury is empty. We will see his reaction before making a decision."

Zhang Zi nodded and sighed heavily.

"That's the only way to go!"

Soon, the soldiers sent by Zhang Zi returned from Sun Jian's barracks.

The soldiers told Sun Jian's understanding and greetings to Zhang Zi in detail, and also gave a lot of cattle and sheep as gifts. It also explained the contradiction with Yuan Shu, and vaguely mentioned that he hoped to join forces with Zhang Zi to deal with Yuan Shu.

"Prefect Sun really said that? Does he have a personal grudge with Yuan Shu?"

The soldiers confirmed Zhang Zi's doubts again and again, and assured that they never lied to Zhang Zi.

"My lord, Sun Jian is extremely brave and a veteran in the battlefield. If we can unite with Sun Jian, Yuan Shu will naturally not be a problem!"

This is a great thing for Nanyang. Sun Jian plus 20,000 soldiers and horses, combined with Wancheng's 10,000 troops, is enough to deal with Yuan Shu!

"Master Jiang, Prefect Sun has given us so many presents. I want to go to Sun Jian's camp to thank him. I just want to take this opportunity to talk to Prefect Sun about Yuan Shu."

Jiang Zhubo felt that it was very necessary and immediately agreed.

"What the prefect said is very true. I will go with you tomorrow. If Sun Jian has any conditions tomorrow, as long as it is not too much, the prefect can agree to him!"

"Everything depends on Jiang Zhubo!"

The next morning, Zhang Zi and Zhu Bo went to Sun Jian's camp with a cart of gifts. Sun Jian was also very enthusiastic, and greeted Zhang Zi outside the gate, and kindly introduced the handsome tent.

After seeing Sun Jian himself, Zhang Zi was even more pleasantly surprised. Sun Jian's body looks like a fierce general! Moreover, the soldiers I have seen along the way are all extremely elite, and they are by no means comparable to the defenders of Wancheng!

In the tent of the commander of the Chinese army, guests and hosts were divided into seats, and Zhang Zi took the initiative to respect Sun Jian with his wine glass.

"Zi has heard about Grand Administrator Sun's name for a long time, and seeing him today is really extraordinary! Zhang Zijing, Grand Administrator Sun, please have a drink!"

Sun Jian was very polite and raised his wine glass in response to Zhang Zi.

"Prefect Zhang is too polite, Sun Jian is ashamed! Please!"

After a round of drinking, Sun Jian began to talk about business.

"Prefect Zhang, now that Dong Zhuo is in chaos, poisoning the people, and Sun is not talented, I would like to take Jiang Dong's son to Luoyang to eliminate thieves for the country! I wonder if Prefect Zhang is willing to go with us?"

Zhang Zi touched his chin with his hand, and nodded slightly.

"Mmm... Sun Taishou is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and Zhang Zi admires it! It's just that Nanyang County has few soldiers and a strong enemy. Zhang Zikong has the heart to save the country, but he doesn't have the strength of Sun Taishou!"

"Strong enemy? I don't know what strong enemy Zhang Taishou is talking about?"

Zhang Zi sighed and drank another glass of wine.

"Of course it's Yuan Shu and Yuan Gonglu! Ever since he arrived in Nanyang, he has always opposed Zhang! The Yuan family has deep roots, and all the counties in Nanyang County have secretly communicated with him. Zhang is really powerless!"

Sun Jian looked at Zhang Zi with a look of doubt.

"I heard that General Yuan Gonglu was conferred the post-general title by the imperial court. Why did Prefect Zhang conflict with him?"

"Prefect Sun didn't know something! Yuan Shu was greedy for Nanyang County, and he wanted to get rid of me soon! But Zhang Zi heard that Prefect Sun and Yuan Shu also had a feud, so I don't know..."

"Hehehe..."

Sun Jian chuckled, stood up and walked to the middle of the big tent, and then shouted outside the tent.

"General Yuan, please come in! It's up to you to tell Taishou Zhang about our holiday!"

At this time, the big tent was opened, and a man in gorgeous clothes walked in, not even Yuan Shu!

Zhang Zi's eyes widened when he heard this, and the pores all over his body exploded. He looked at Sun Jian opposite him in astonishment.

"Prefect Sun, you...you..."

Yuan Shu just glanced at Zhang Zi, then walked straight to the coach's seat and sat down.

"Prefect Sun, Mr. Zhang is leaving!"

Zhang Zi stood up straight away and walked outside the tent, but just as he took one foot, he backed away. I saw a bright sharp blade lit up in front of Zhang Zi!

"Prefect Zhang, where do you want to go?"

Yuan Shu showed a weird smile, and his voice was full of contempt and ridicule!
