Chapter 40 Competition

"Master Sun seems to have some understanding of the three major forces in Jianzhou, so I won't talk nonsense. But I'm afraid Master Sun has misunderstood. These three major forces are not supported by us. In fact, they all get what they need.

." Yong'an Jiedushi Chen Decheng slowly explained the situation in Jianzhou.

When the Southern Tang Dynasty destroyed Fujian, the Nanyue Kingdom invaded and took Fuzhou. Qingyuan Jiedushi tried to balance the left and right, but the Southern Tang Dynasty had no choice but to use Jianzhou as a buffer. After that, the Northern Zhou Dynasty sent its troops southward and attacked the south.

The Tang Dynasty ceded territory to seek peace, and transferred all its troops, money and food to build defenses along the river, leaving the south empty. It was even more out of reach of Jianzhou and no longer dared to start disputes. Therefore, the local power of Jianzhou grew rapidly. The Qingyuan Army followed

South Vietnam intervened in the situation in Jianzhou one after another. The Zhongyi Army had no choice but to support Bai Yutang, otherwise the imperial court would have no say in Jianzhou.

"I'm not afraid of Mr. Sun's jokes. I am the military envoy of the Qingyuan Army and the great general of Youweiwei. I have less than 10,000 capable soldiers. If you can defend Jian'ou, you will be worthy of your majesty." Regarding the current situation in Jianzhou, Chen Decheng

There is nothing you can do, this is a three-party balance, otherwise you may not be able to defend your own position.

"It's less than ten thousand?" Sun Yu was surprised. He had originally thought of borrowing some troops from here, but it seemed that there was no hope.

"Most of the taxes paid each year are given to the imperial court. We are able to raise so many troops thanks to our business with Bai Yutang." To put it bluntly, raising soldiers is a waste of money. The imperial court raises taxes every year, so there is no leftover to expand the army.

Sun Yu finally understood that the three major forces in Jianzhou were not puppets supported by them, but had long been in power and each wanted what they wanted.

"Then if I fight Bai Yutang, won't I ruin the general's business?" Sun Yu refused to give up, Bai Yutang would eventually be removed.

"Compared to Bai Yutang, of course I would rather do business with Mr. Sun." Compared to Bai Yutang, Sun Yu is obviously better.

"Okay! The general is quick to speak, and he is not pretentious in his subordinates. From now on, all military supplies in Jianzhou will be taken care of by the Su family. Your Excellency, you might as well let me have a good relationship with the Su family." From now on, all my energy must be focused on governing the place.

, I don’t plan to do the material transfer myself.

"I have a big business in front of me, and I believe Mr. Sun will definitely be interested in it." Chen Decheng smiled inexplicably and looked at Sun Yu as if he were looking at a box of money.

"Oh, please make it clear, general." It is certainly not a small matter to be able to call the dignified Jiedushi envoy a big business.

"I also have some damaged armaments in the warehouse, how about selling them to Mr. Sun?" Chen Decheng could see clearly that this young man was angry. Once he entered Jianzhou, war would continue. If others were not interested in the gadgets in the warehouse, he would definitely want them.

"I wonder how much the general is worth?" If he has an informant, Bai Yutang's every move will be under his nose, and it will be easier to deal with him. The more weapons and equipment, the better, so naturally he needs them. Even if they are damaged, they are better than his own.

It's much easier to recreate.

"The fixed price is 20,000 taels. Don't worry, Mr. Sun. I guarantee that it will be worth every penny!" They are all our own, so they will not cheat him. Besides, no one except him is willing to pay a high price for these things.

"Okay, I want it, but there is a condition. Give me a hundred blacksmiths, otherwise I won't be able to use it even if I take it." Twenty thousand taels is not too much, just treat it as a good friend of this general.

Well worth it.

"Okay, it's a deal." With twenty thousand taels of silver, next month's military pay is finally settled.

"Dad, who is this?"

A young man of the same age as Sun Yu, with a strong back and a sledgehammer on his shoulders, said in a loud voice.

"You treacherous son, why did you come back after letting you stay in the military camp?" General Chen became very angry when he saw this young man. He caused trouble in the city every day and made everyone angry, so he couldn't send him away in anger.

Military camp, why are you back today?

"I want to leave, who can keep me here? Those cowards in the military camp don't even have anyone to practice, which is so boring. What about that boy from the Zhou family? He should be beaten more." Speaking of this, Chen Qi

Ba was so angry that he ruined the military camp and even lied to me that there were as many masters as there were.

"You still have the nerve to say that the boy from the Zhou family hasn't gotten out of bed yet. He's not allowed to be beaten, so you beat him up every now and then." The Zhou family is a local wealthy family, and there are many Zhou family descendants in the military and officialdom. The local wealthy family

They have more marriages with each other, and now their reputation is getting worse and worse.

"I am the new governor of Jianzhou and I have met the young general. The tiger father has no dog son, and the young general is very handsome. When he goes to battle on the battlefield, he will be as heroic as the overlord of Western Chu." Sun Yu saw that there was going to be a dispute and helped him.

Jian stood up and quickly flattered him.

"You! You're telling lies with your eyes open. He doesn't look like me. I get on my horse and pick up a sword to kill the enemy, and I get off my horse and write poems with a pen. All he thinks about is fighting and killing. He's just like his uncle. I

I think you are quite similar to me, and I couldn't put it down with your poems in Jiangning." Chen Decheng recalled that his uncle followed him through life and death, and finally died trying to save himself, and he was quite emotional. It is inevitable for his sister and this boy to

I have doted on him a little, but now I can no longer control him. Every time I want to deal with this kid, his mother will kneel on the ground with his uncle's sword. How can I do it?

"Ahem, um, I can't compare to you, sir. It's just a fluke, a fluke." Damn, you took advantage of me, this old thing! Sun Yu thought bitterly.

"Master Sun has a sharp eye. I have made you a friend. That boy from the Zhou family is not a good guy. I will beat him once when I see him." This boy is not bad. He knows heroes with a sharp eye. He stepped forward and punched Sun.

Yu showed his kindness to his chest.

"You're welcome, Major General. I speak from the bottom of my heart." Sun Yu knew that he meant no harm, so he straightened his chest and took the blow.

There was a "bang" sound, but Sun Yu didn't move at all.

"Hey, you really have a lot of tricks." Chen Qiba was quite surprised. It was hard to tell from his body, but he actually had such ability.

"Come on, don't have a few brushes, why would you go all the way from Jiangning to Jianzhou to die?" Chen Decheng looked so angry that he couldn't use his brain.

"Just kidding?" Chen Qiba turned a deaf ear to his father's words and stared at Sun Yu. He just wanted to fight now.

"Okay!" Sun Yu also felt good and stretched his muscles.

"Let's go." Chen Qiba waved his hand and walked outside first. Sun Yu naturally followed.

"It's great to be young!" Chen Decheng recalled the same situation when he first met his brother-in-law. He was beaten badly that time, and I guess it will be similar this time.

Chen Decheng picked up the tea cup and drank while waiting. He estimated that Sun Yu would come back with a bruise and a swollen face in a while. His son knew that his skills were not outstanding, and he knew the importance, except for the Zhou family boy and his gang.

"Hey, that's weird." No one was seen for a while. Maybe there was an accident. Chen Decheng hurriedly walked out.

"I'm going." As soon as he arrived at the martial arts training ground, he saw that half of his son's face was swollen.

Looking at Lao Gao, Sun Yu, although a little embarrassed, is obviously slightly better.

Chen Qiba raised his huge fist and rushed towards Sun Yu. Sun Yu blocked it with his left hand, took half a step to the right, and punched Chen Qigong in the stomach. He instantly ducked behind him and was about to elbow his back when he saw it from the corner of his eye.

Chen Decheng had already arrived, so he stopped and retreated.

"Young general, you are brave, we will fight again tomorrow!" Sun Yu handed over his hand, and it was not right to beat his son severely in front of his father, even if he cursed harshly.

"Master Sun, come again." Chen Qiba was unhappy with the beating. This kid was too fast and could not hold back. He dodged several of his heavy blows.

"Okay, don't be embarrassed. If Mr. Sun hadn't been merciful just now, you would have fallen long ago." Chen Decheng wanted to look up to the sky and sigh, how could such a thing have become addictive after being beaten?

"The general is commended. Although the young general is a little slower, there is nothing he can do if I take him down." Sun Yu is telling the truth. Chen Qiba's ability to withstand beatings is similar to that of Lao Cheng. Although he has the upper hand, if

It is impossible to win even for a while. This is still with bare hands. If weapons are used, these characters use heavy weapons, which doubles the power.

"Dad, I want to go to Jianzhou with Mr. Sun." Jian'ou here is quite boring. I heard that Sun Yu is going to Jianzhou to fight bandits, which is much better than staying here.

"No, the Major General has a distinguished status, but his sword has no eyesight on the battlefield." The more people like this under my command, the better. They have superior combat power and are careless, but if something goes wrong, I can't afford it. During the Three Kingdoms period,

Although Cao Cao is very suspicious, you can rest easy with Dian Wei here.

"Master Sun, I really can't control the dogs. If not, I'll let you take care of them. I can choose three hundred warriors from the army to go with me, but what's the price?" After all, my son is getting older, and it will be difficult for him to become a leader under his wings.

, why not let it go out and have some adventure.

"General, my subordinates are really poor. Don't you know the situation in Jianzhou?" Sun Yu spread his hands. This general is also very good at doing business. He is selling his son.

"How about five thousand taels? Three hundred soldiers, and a strong general like my son, it's a good deal!" Anyway, if this son is to be sent out, he must be equipped with some guards. It would be best if he can sell it for money.

"Dad, am I just the boss?" Chen Qiba was quite annoyed. How could he belittle his son so much?

"That's right, a strong general like my son..."

"Deal!" Seeing that the price was about to increase, Sun Yu decided to bring his own escort, which would reduce his responsibility.

"Oh, what a loss!" Seeing how cheerful the guy opposite was, I must have quoted a low price, so I couldn't go back on my promise, so I settled on that.

At that moment, Chen Decheng set up a banquet to greet Sun Yu, and also to see his son off.

"Son, I'm going to work for Mr. Sun and study hard. I'll go to the back later and say goodbye to your mother." Chen Decheng looked at his son who was about to leave home. He was usually angry just looking at him, but now he was quite reluctant to leave.

"Master, do you want to send my son to Jianzhou to suffer punishment?" A middle-aged woman led two maids and walked over with a sword in hand.

"It's a pity that my brother left early, and his parents' family didn't have anyone to help him. My son suffered a lot." Mrs. Chen stepped forward and hugged Chen Qiba and started crying, which made Chen Decheng want to find a hole in the ground and crawl into it.
