Chapter 2111 He Must Have a Purpose
The more Sun Meng listened, the angrier he became.
"This Shao Zhizhou is really arrogant! He dares to be so disrespectful to his immediate superior. Lord Liu is really good-tempered. If he were to go against our general, humph, I guarantee he would die without knowing how he died!"
Captain Li sighed, "Our lords value talent and said that Lord Shao was a top scholar after all, so we couldn't bear to blame him. Who knew that he became more arrogant and lawless. General, tell me, does he have ulterior motives in secretly storing so much food?"
"Of course! He must have some ulterior motive!"
Sun Meng said coldly: "I'll go find him right away."
Captain Li said hurriedly: "General, why don't you go to the granary first and see how he can argue in front of the full warehouse of grain!"
Sun Meng felt that it was unnecessary and smiled coldly: "I just asked him directly, what would he dare to do?"
Captain Li wanted to say that it might not be the case, but then he changed his mind and thought, wouldn't it be better this way? It would be best if the prefect Shao didn't give it to him, and offended General Sun, which would be enough to make him suffer.
General Sun will never let him go...
"The general is wise! Everyone knows the general's reputation, and I think he would not dare to be tactful!"
Captain Li started to flatter him.
Although this was an exaggeration, who wouldn't like to hear good words? Sun Meng felt very happy.
The next day, Sun Meng took a dozen of his fierce subordinates to find Shao Yunduan and directly mentioned two things. One was that he wanted Shao Yunduan and Jia Heming, Aye, Sun Bai, Sun Qian and other captains to accompany him to the provincial capital, as their general had something to ask; the other was that he had to take away 100,000 shi of grain when he returned to the provincial capital this time.
"There is no time to lose. Lord Shao, please prepare now! We will set off in three days at the latest! I hope that all the food will be ready by then."
Shao Yunduan expected that he had ill intentions, but he did not expect him to be so overbearing.
Shao Yunduan would never agree to either of the two conditions he proposed.
Shao Yunduan tried to be flexible and said with a smile: "General, if General Sun wants to know anything, I will go and tell him. I will go to the provincial capital myself, so there is no need for others to do so, right? We also need to leave people to guard Anze Prefecture, right? If everyone leaves, there will be no one to handle daily affairs."
"No!" Sun Meng was extremely alert and cautious towards Shao Yunduan at this moment. He knew that he could not compete with the number one scholar in terms of IQ.
The top scholar is cunning. If you talk to him a few more words, he might be misled and fooled!
So his method of dealing with Shao Yunduan was very simple and brutal, that was to never listen to him and never agree to anything he said!
Anyway, don't worry about whether he is right or wrong, just don't listen to him and oppose everything he proposes.
Sun Meng glanced at Shao Yunduan and snorted, "This is the order of our general. All of you must go! It's just a small Anze Prefecture. Even if we have to delay our official duties for a few days, so what? Can the affairs of this broken place be compared with the affairs of our general? If the general asks you to go, then you must go!"
"Sir Shao, don't blame me for not reminding you. Our general is not as good-tempered as Prefect Liu. You can't disobey him! Otherwise, hmph!"
It turned out to be related to Prefect Liu.
Shao Yunduan had nothing to say.
But there is absolutely no way I can give in on this matter.
If all of them went to the provincial capital, what would happen to Anzezhou? What would happen to Qiao Xuan and her children? What would happen to their families?
If Sun Pu and Prefect Liu secretly send people to take over by force, and this place is leaderless, then they will really become fish on the chopping board of others, with no way to survive.
