Chapter 108 The world is much better now... (seeking data!)

Xiaopei.

When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei returned from recruiting troops from the army, the guards immediately handed over a letter, which was from Xudu, signed by Liu Bei.

When the two of them saw it, they looked happy, and immediately smiled at each other. This was the first letter since the beginning of spring.

"My brother has been in Xudu for a long time, and finally remembered that there are two brothers in Xiaopei. It's really not easy, hahaha..." Zhang Fei laughed loudly. Although his words were sour, they were just teasing.

He was very happy to see the news of his brother again.

Guan Yu said nothing cheerfully, removed the shell and opened the paper inside for a look, and then stroked his beard in satisfaction.

"Well, my brother praised me for my merits. I only took Duyang, but I am already quite famous in the Cao family. Many generals praised me for my deep understanding of the art of war. Although this is a small move, it is very subtle, enough to hold the key points, and revitalize the whole body. bureau..."

"Brother, I've also heard that many civil and military men have mentioned this matter, and their reputation is strong. Therefore, we have won Cao's kindness, and we should think of repaying it."

"What do you mean?"

Zhang Fei's eyes immediately widened like copper bells, but his face turned dark. He heard that what was said in the letter should be happy things, but he couldn't be happy at all.

Why are the achievements of last year still being praised? !

How long does it take to blow a Duyang?

If I lead the army, I can break through Duyang, take the canal, and occupy the main road. Is it necessary to keep talking?
Are you bored?keep saying?Are you bothered? !
"Brother, what do you mean? How can I repay you?" Zhang Fei said in a sullen voice with dissatisfaction on his face.

Guan Yu straightened his long beard, squinted his eyes and looked far away, and said in a deep voice: "In a few days, someone may recommend me as a general, and then Xudu will recruit soldiers and train soldiers."

"In Xudu, there are civil and military people who know my abilities and want me to help lead the troops."

"Lead the soldiers!?" Zhang Fei's face was really dark now, he swung his big hand very quickly, turned around and left, went to a step and sat down, staring at Guan Yu with sharp and dissatisfied eyes.

"Brother, you can't go here! Although the elder brother said that he has this letter, it may not be that he really wanted to write it, or it was forced by the situation, maybe he was forced to write it by Cao Cao when he was in prison! Based on my understanding of him , how can you send your elder brother to the Cao family to lead the army?"

Guan Yu pondered for a long time, then nodded slightly, and slowly walked up to Zhang Fei, his eyes shaking and his expression struggling, and he said after a long time: "Third brother is wrong, if he is really in prison, then I will change to see him." Just look."

"You can't let the eldest brother suffer in Xudu alone, can you?"

"Moreover, it's not about being transferred to Cao Cao's command, but about recruiting and training soldiers for the Han emperor. This is an act of helping the Han family, so the elder brother will inform you in this letter."

"What about me!? Didn't the letter mention anything about me!? Take a look at the letter!" Zhang Fei immediately snatched the letter, his black face puffed up, and his eyes grew angry.

After he finished reading, he was even more at a loss, and murmured: "I will continue to defend Xiaopei, build up the strength of the army, and save food and grass. The main thing is to stick to it, not to cause chaos among the people, not to disturb the city..."

Zhang Fei scratched his head, feeling empty in his heart for a while, he stood up and paced back and forth, panting more and more heavily.

Occasionally, he turned his head to look at Guan Yu once or twice, but he didn't say anything. After holding back for a long time, he said, "You all go away and leave me alone as the guard."

"He's still the guard of such a tiny place like Xiaopei."

"Besides, our three brothers still have to separate here. Think about it, did you fall into some trick!?"

Zhang Fei was panting like a cow and was very angry. This obviously divided them, and it was the case from the results.

Guan Yu was awakened by his words, and his eyes gradually became serious.

The third brother looks reckless on weekdays, but sometimes he is also as careful as a hair, and the situation has changed to this, when someone among them is splitting.

The elder brother didn't notice, and was bewitched by others, so he sent me to be a general under the emperor, but left the third brother in the cold.

And the elder brother doesn't know what position he holds in Xudu, if he is really having a bad time in Xudu, then he should go and have a look. Thinking of this, his heart softened again.

Thinking of these years from acquaintance to acquaintance, following the eldest brother for several years, he has already formed a brotherly bond, but he is complacent about his military exploits, but he never thought about whether his brother is in prison and cannot escape.

Should go and see.

He walked up to Zhang Fei with a serious expression on his face, and said to Zhang Fei in a deep voice: "Yide, you guard Xiaopei and even lead troops outside to threaten Xu Du, so that many generals of the Cao family will not dare to act rashly. "

"At least, in this way, my brother and I will be safer in Xudu. If, as you said, he is not safe in Xudu, then I will go to help."

After Zhang Fei heard it and thought about it, he also thought it made sense, but he still felt a little reluctant. If he went, the three brothers would really be divided into one side.

In the future, when I buy good wine, no one will accompany me to drink it, so what a loss.

But after thinking about it, his thoughts were complicated, and it was not easy to force Guan Yu to stay, so he immediately walked back to his seat, sat down and said loudly: "Then let's not talk about it, let's have a drink! This wine is for me. Bought for a lot of money!"

"Okay, okay..." Guan Yu also knew that this wine had a floral fragrance, which was quite unique, and it was also mellow and easy to drink, with a first-line throat.

It's just that you will get drunk before you know it, and there won't be many green ants floating on the wine, which can be called a good wine.

After drinking for three rounds, Guan Yu seemed to have thought of something, and asked: "Third brother, remember, after I leave, you must not drink indiscriminately, and you must not beat and scold the sergeants. Be kind to the rich merchants in the city, and at the same time, continue to build closer relations with the Sun family. , he has already sponsored us a lot of money, and he also respects the elder brother, so we should win him over."

"Oh, I see, brother really..." Zhang Fei's face suddenly became a little irritable. He has said this cliché for countless times, and he always looks at people with old eyes.

"Sun Qian and I have always had a very good relationship. After my elder brother left, I discussed with him a lot and asked him for advice. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with him in Xuzhou. I will definitely win over."

"That's right," Guan Yu sighed a few times, but he didn't know what else to say. He knew the character of his third brother. Just talking about it might have a weak effect, so he could only say wait. When we arrive in Xudu in the future, we will send someone back to remind us at any time.

Sun Qian is very important. This person has certain contacts in Xuzhou, and his family has a lot of money and assets. If he can get his wholehearted support and follow him, it will be extremely helpful to the elder brother.

……

A few days later, the transfer order was sent to Xiaopei, and Guan Yu immediately led a dozen guards forward to take up his post.

Zhang Fei stayed in Xiaopei, and didn't even get up to send him off that day, but on the surface, the brotherhood was still loyal and there was no falling out.

Guan Yu wanted to ask some more words, but after much deliberation, he decided to forget it, so as not to arouse Zhang Fei's worries again, so he rushed to Xudu overnight to take up the post of Fenwu, and fought with many clansmen, generals, etc. under Cao Cao's command. Recruit soldiers together.

The counties near Xudu, as well as the subdued cities and counties in Yuzhou, have many refugees, strong men, and village braves. It may take a month to recruit soldiers. Now at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the conditions for recruiting soldiers and horses are much higher. The monthly salary written on the notice is more generous than the local.

If Guan Yu had seen such notices back then, he would have joined the army without hesitation. This is enough to show that other people would also come, not to mention that Cao Jun had no major defeats in the past two years. On the small battlefield.

This achievement is already disdainful to the surrounding princes, and the Cao family is based on benevolence and righteousness, and has won the hearts of the people. How difficult is it for soldiers to follow? !
Therefore, Guan Yu only met Liu Bei in a hurry, talked with each other for a while, and then immediately went to see Cao Cao. Cao Cao even went out to meet him and waited in the city, not only waiting for Guan Yu, but also two generals.

One is Xu Huang and the other is Zhang Liao.

Guan Yu knew that Zhang Liao was the commander of the cavalry when he was under Lv Bu's command. During that period of time, he was the only one who never wavered and was diligent in military affairs day and night.

Guan Yu admired such a person.

But Guan Yu didn't know much about Xu Huang. He only knew that he was a surrendered general from Yang Feng's side, and Yang Feng and Han Xian had already gone to Yuan Shu. Presumably this person didn't have much ability.

"Yun Chang is here! Come!" Cao Cao got off his horse and came to greet him. He was different from everyone else. When he got in front of Guan Yu, because Cao Cao was a head shorter than Guan Yu, even Guan Yu, who was arrogant in his heart, bowed unconsciously to speak.

"Sikong."

"Well, it's not the first time we've met. I've known Yunchang's ambitions through several correspondences. Such kindness and righteousness should be appreciated by righteous men all over the world. I feel at ease when you come to recruit and train soldiers for me. .”

"Sikong is absurd."

Guan Yu's face was already very red, but he was quite relieved to hear the praise.

He now believes that there are very few heroes in the world, and his elder brother and Cao Cao are among them, and the rest are either ignorant or ignorant, so he has never heard of them for the time being.

The two left the city hand in hand and went straight to Daying in the southwest direction. At this time, Xu Du was full of farmers with good fields.

In addition, the terrain is flat, and you can see in the distance at a glance, most of the villagers are working.

This year is not considered a hot day, so it is promised that there will be no danger of locust plagues and droughts, because after Guo Yi gave advice back then, he popularized the relationship between droughts and locust plagues, making people understand that locust plagues are born of drought, not gods and insects God punished them, so they also set up a lot of devices to catch larvae, and wiped out the larvae in the ground at any time to prevent locust plagues.

Therefore, wherever the naked eye can reach, one can see that this year's harvest must also be abundant.

And after the manpower is saved, although the land is vast, it will not need to be taken care of day and night. If the rest of the strong men have nothing to do at home, they can come to join the army.

It also provides the conditions for recruiting troops.

Along the way, Cao Cao personally informed the three generals of these preferential policies, and at the same time completed a tour, bringing them to the barracks.

Where Cao Cao inspected, the people were all enthusiastic and friendly, and some old men even took out a bowl of fine wine from their homes and sent it to the generals who came to inspect.

Both Guan Yu and Zhang Liao couldn't help feeling emotional.

The stern Zhang Liao also had to put on a reluctant smile. After drinking the fine wine, he bid farewell to the old man. When he turned around to look at Cao Cao, his eyes were already foggy, and he said with emotion: "The criminal should really be damned. Back then in Puyang They actually want to take Yanzhou."

"If Yanzhou is under the governance of Marquis Wen, Zhang Miao and others, it may not be able to spread the name of benevolence, and it will not have the harmony as promised in the prosperous age."

"Sikong, you are truly a hero of the present age, who can save all people from fire and water."

"That's right," Guan Yu is tall and tall. When standing and walking, his upper body is always upright, quite imposing, but at this moment in front of Cao Cao, he is willing to bow down and lower his head, and he also clasped his fists and said: "Sikong is like this. He is a blessing for all people and a big man." Blessed, with such a reputation, no matter how hard you fight, how can the people not be enthusiastic."

"There is no need to reward so much, as long as Ming Gong raises his arms, there must be some nobles who agree with him."

Xu Huang followed for a long time, feeling a lot of emotion but not as good as the two generals could express the shock in their hearts, they could only move their faces and walk sideways.

Cao Cao didn't hear what he said, so he looked back at Xu Huang, and said, "Why didn't Gongming say a few words?! This is a peaceful and peaceful world that I have devoted all my efforts to. If you don't praise me, I will feel a little lost in my heart." Yes, meritorious deeds are naturally to be praised."

He is a real person, and the few words he said were very friendly, which made Xu Huang's face turn red, looked helplessly at Guan Yu and Zhang Liao, and then hesitated: "Really, I want to praise, but I don't know what to say... ...I can only say that the world is much better now."

"It's much better than before... When I was in Chang'an, a big man in Guanzhong saw the people changing their sons and eating, how shocking, but now being comforted by the centenarians gifting wine, this feeling is worse than making any great achievements. Satisfied... I really don't know what else to say..."

"Hahaha!" Cao Cao turned his head and smiled to look at Guan Yu and Zhang Liao, with a heroic look on his face, he waved his hands while laughing and said, "That's the way it is, I'm happy to hear it!"

"Generals," he smiled for a moment. At this time, he was almost at the barracks that had been set up. Cao Cao also turned serious. He slowly lined up his hands and clasped his fists in front of him. , I still need all of you to do your best to protect each other, and to support me in protecting the country and reassuring the people. From today onwards, the recruitment and training of soldiers will be entrusted to three of you!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Ming!"

"Master Ming, don't worry!"

"Lord, be at ease!"

The three of them quickly clasped their fists at the same time, their gazes moved and they did not dare to neglect, someone even called out "Master", and they regarded this matter of recruiting soldiers as a lot more sacred in their hearts.

Cao Cao just said a word that is very important, that is, this place is a pure land built with all efforts, and it should not be abandoned at will.

All the people here can live in poverty and live in peace, have food, clothing and clothing, and prevent the people from suffering from starvation, cold and hunger, so they can be called a good and enlightened lord.

In such a place, it is best to guard here with weapons and soldiers.

Even at this moment, Guan Yu's mind was so moved... It's too late to meet again!This is the lord of benevolence and righteousness, the hero who rectifies the world, not only is he so benevolent and righteous, he also practiced it personally, even he... is not humble or proud of the words of praise, and accepts them calmly.

A gentleman too! !

Eldest brother is also such a gentleman, but, but...

Guan Yu felt uncomfortable for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out.

When he walked to the barracks with the other two generals, he suddenly figured it out.

But my elder brother didn't have such a big place, and for many years he just talked with him in long talks, but today when he saw a real person in the world, he found that that person was not his elder brother, but Cao Cao.

Really... well, I don't know how to think about it for a while.

　Ask for some tickets, everyone!
