Picked up a copy of Romance of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 561
The door of the study room in the side yard was tightly closed, and there were four or five servants standing outside, but none of them dared to go in and disturb them.

Hua Xiong walked to the door, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, he pushed open the door, walked into the study, and quickly closed the door again. In the study, Liu Mastiff sat in front of the desk, with his head bowed, his eyes full of tears. Dazed, the copybook is full of papers, these are the notes that Yuan Shu wrote for him after he asked Yuan Shu for advice, the room is extremely dark, the windows are closed tightly, only the copybook is lit with candles.

Hearing someone walk in, Liu Mastiff didn't even raise his head, and said, "I don't want to eat yet."

"Then let's eat later," Hua Xiong said, and sat opposite Liu Mastiff. Liu Mastiff raised his head and saw the person coming, but he still stretched out his hand to pay respects. Only then did Hua Xiong see Liu Mastiff's face , the red and swollen eye sockets, and the pale complexion made Hua Xiong frown involuntarily. After thinking for a while, he laughed, shook his head, and said, "Do you know where I was during the captain's funeral?"

Liu Mastiff didn't answer, just lowered his head and said nothing.

"I drank in the captain's mansion, drank heavily, bid farewell to the captain, congratulations to the captain!!"

Liu Mastiff, who was originally a little sluggish, raised his head angrily when he heard these words, and looked at Hua Xiong in front of him, with both anger and puzzlement in his eyes.

Hua Xiong ignored him, and recalled seriously, saying: "Ten years ago, I was just a soldier who had just entered the border garrison. I was garrisoning the border in Liangzhou, and I was also in the garrison. I met Captain Yuan. At that time He was still a corps leader of the Southern Army. At that time, the Qiang people outside the Great Wall could not survive, and frantically flocked to Liangzhou, plundering the Quartet, whether it was Liangzhou people, Huns, or Qiang people inside the Great Wall , they robbed them all!!"

"In order to resist them, the southern army divided into three battalions, and joined forces with our border guards to resist together."

"You know, I like to talk about my own experience, but I never talk about wars. Why? Because when talking about wars, there will be no joy, only countless sorrows. The captain led us and won big and small. In nearly 800 battles, we climbed out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood, but more people were lying there, the most tragic one, our [-]-person barracks, only a dozen people remained in the end."

When Hua Xiong talked about this, he still smiled, and continued: "At that time, I was very scared. I wanted to escape, but the captain stopped me. He told me that one's mortality is either heavier than the Taihang Mountains, or lighter. I don’t understand the principle of bird feathers. He told me that you will die sooner or later, depending on how he died and what he did before he died. He said that people can be proud when they live Yangyang brags about his experiences and tells himself about his glorious life!!!”

"Or, die on the battlefield and let others brag about your glorious life!"

Hua Xiong smiled and said: "You know why I always talk about my experiences, hahaha, you don't have to worry, when you die, there will be hundreds of millions of people to praise your fame in this life. , the captain is not afraid of death, he is only afraid of death, you see, now, when it comes to the captain, who dares to despise, who will not brag about his life, if others don't talk about it, I will!! "

"The captain has been in pain for too long. Now that he can get rid of this pain and meet our old brothers, maybe he is bragging about his achievements to his master right now!"

Hua Xiong patted Liu Mastiff on the shoulder, and said: "If the captain brags about his experience, he will not be proud of his military achievements, nor will he be proud of revitalizing the ram, but he will still teach a wise and benevolent man. However, if he was bragging, he looked down and saw his favorite student shut himself in the room, washing his face with tears, how do you think he should explain to the martyrs?"

Liu Mastiff wiped away his tears, stood up, bowed to Hua Xiong, and said, "Be taught!"

"That's not necessary. Come on, come with me to bask in the sun!" Hua Xiong didn't talk nonsense, stood up, pulled Liu Mastiff and walked out. Everyone was talking with Zhuge Liang in the side yard, and they saw Hua Xiong leading Liu Mastiff. Mastiff came out, everyone greeted him quickly, Liu Mastiff forced a smile, and bowed one by one, Hua Xiong laughed, looked at Zhuge Liang at the side, and said: "Kong Ming, study hard, you still have a lot to learn! "

He didn't wait for Zhuge Liang to reply, he walked out of Yuan Mansion with a big smile.

"Your Highness."

"Uncle, I made everyone worry earlier, and I hope you will forgive me."

"No problem, no problem, what would your Highness want to eat?"

"it is good."

Hua Xiong walked out of Yuan's mansion with great enthusiasm, quite happy in his heart, thinking about the new Henan Yin and other county magistrates, he walked towards the mansion again, halfway there, he suddenly stopped, turned around, Looking at the Yuan Mansion in the distance, he grinned and said, "It's a trivial matter, so don't say thank you!"

At the same time, Guan Yu had already arrived at the palace. He had never been here before. Therefore, when he arrived at the gate of the palace, he was stopped by the guards at the gate. Guan Yu revealed his identity and said he wanted to meet the emperor. Speaking of things, unless one has the status of a servant, or ranks among the three princes, it is not that simple to meet the emperor, even the captain of the Northern Army, it is not easy to meet the emperor.

However, Emperor Xiaokang set a precedent. He issued an edict that anyone in the Han Dynasty can come to see him, no matter if he has grievances or important matters, he can report to himself. The people of the palace are blocked outside the door, and for the common people who want to visit the emperor, all post stations should protect them and escort them all the way to Luoyang. Of course, the common people dare not disturb the emperor.

However, quite a few low-level officials, and even officials in the court, came to pay homage to the emperor.

Some even just wanted to see the emperor, and Emperor Xiaokang didn't make things difficult for them.

Today, the emperor also inherited this policy of Emperor Xiaokang. Soon after Guan Yu arrived, the Han family reported to the Hall of Houde. Hearing that Guan Yu was coming, the emperor was still very puzzled. An extraordinary general, this is a real brave general, a warrior who can kill the enemy generals. In the heavenly scriptures, there is a big book about the bravery of this person, who can directly kill the enemy generals in the enemy army , There are really not many in the book.

He had high hopes for Guan Yubao, so he did not send Guan Yu to replace the Southern Army, but stayed in the Northern Army as Huang Zhong's deputy. This was naturally his plan to take charge of the Northern Army in the future, in the heart of the emperor , this person is still among the candidates for the future Taiwei.

Guan Yu didn't wait too long, and Huang Men came out to take Guan Yu into the palace. Guan Yu kept a cold face along the way. He walked to the gate of Houde Hall and left. Guan Yu walked into Houde Hall alone. The emperor was flipping through the books. Guan Yu walked in and didn't dare to disturb the emperor. Seeing Guan Yu coming in, he put the book down.

"Longevity is here, come, sit down!"

The emperor waved his hand, and was very kind to Guan Yu, which made Guan Yu a little uncomfortable. He walked up to the emperor and sat down. There is a warrior who looks like a tall tower and can take the head of the enemy from among thousands of armies. From today's perspective, he is indeed brave!!" Facing the praise of the emperor, Guan Yu blushed and even praised him.

The emperor asked some more about the military, and after a while, he stopped and looked at Guan Yu quietly.

Guan Yu understood that the Son of Heaven was waiting for him to explain why he came here. He thought for a moment before he said slowly: "Your Majesty, now that officials and scholars are flourishing, and scientific achievements are flourishing, but there is no place to cultivate general talents." Guan Yu general The emperor listened to what Yuan Shu talked about. The emperor frowned and listened carefully. When Guan Yu finished speaking, the emperor still hesitated. He said: "The art of war is the most important thing, teach everyone..."

At the same time, he also had a high opinion of Guan Yugao in his heart. He originally thought that this person was just a brave man, and in other respects, he was probably ordinary. , but still hesitant. Speaking of it, the big man's control over the books of the art of war is very strict. He is afraid that it will spread to the world and be obtained by interested people, which will lead to chaos. The emperor is also hesitant about this matter.

Guan Yu was also shocked, because Yuan Shu had told him about the emperor's answer, and taught him how to persuade him if the emperor said so.

Guan Yu recalled what Yuan Shu had taught, and then slowly said: "Your Majesty, during the time of Jianning, Emperor Xiaokang set up the Southern Army, with the famous general Duan Gong as his teacher, and taught the rangers the art of war within three years. , the southern army re-emerged, with great exploits and unstoppable bravery. At that time, Duke Zhang of the northern army made a bet with Duke Duan. As a result, the southern army defeated the northern army. Duke Zhang also began to pay attention to teaching the art of war among the generals at the bottom."

"Emperor Xiaokang's actions made the Han army stronger and defeated Xianbei, Sanhan and other foreign enemies successively."

As soon as Guan Yu said this, the emperor raised his hand and asked him to stop. The emperor frowned and said, "Okay, let's do as you said, and set up military science. When Emperor Xiaokang was taught by the soldiers of the north and south, then Let's simply be bolder, recruit students widely, wait for them to complete their studies, and distribute them to the North and South Army, and even the surrounding border guards, and even the Jinwu, and local wanderers to pay the bandit Cao."

The Son of Heaven spoke seriously, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he raised Guan Yu's performance to several levels.

Guan Yu could only feel in his heart that Yuan Shu's understanding of the emperor was so thorough, and he nodded his head in agreement with the emperor's words.

The two talked for nearly an hour before Guan Yu left. When the emperor sent him away, he was a little reluctant to part. The emperor grabbed Guan Yu's hand and said seriously, "Longsheng, this champion , I really want to seal it out, but after so many years, no one has made enough merits. Now I feel that, Changsheng, you may be different from others. I will reserve the position of champion for you! !"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!!"

After seeing off Guan Yu, the Son of Heaven sat in the Hall of Houde, thinking about this matter alone, but suddenly felt something was wrong. At Guan Yu's age, how did he know about Duan Jiong and Zhang Huan in such detail?Also, just now, did he intentionally mention the matter of Jianning, which made me make such a hasty decision? ? ?Why does he know me so well? ? ?
wrong!This is not Guan Yu's idea! ! !
