Chapter 247 What’s Wrong with This Old Man?
This was the end of the Han Dynasty, and it was certainly a turbulent time!
And it manifests itself in people’s thoughts.

It is the same with a hundred flowers blooming and various situations coexisting!
Most ordinary people are completely different.

He has a rigorous and upright attitude towards life and attaches great importance to etiquette!
Every move is based on rules and regulations, and the attitude of following the rules is much better than before!

However, some famous and romantic men like to be casual and natural, with the sky as the backdrop!

Act as you please and do not stick to any rules, like Ruan Ji and Ji Kang!
It is regarded as chic and elegant, and will not be criticized by the world!

Zhou Yu is a man of elegance and grace, and he cares most about his image in front of others!
Even in his own military tent, he did not change his usual demeanor!

Although he was facing his subordinates at this time, he was also sitting in front of the table!

Sitting upright at the table is the proper etiquette!

This is what we understand as the kneeling method today.

It also shows the gentleness and elegance of this Eastern Wu commander-in-chief.

The unrestrained temperament of following the rules obviously belongs to the former.

But Huang Gai was completely different.

This old man has a rough and bold personality and has never cared about these details!

Moreover, as a military general, he always wore armor and regarded the military camp as his home.

So get used to whatever makes you feel comfortable!
Normally in his tent, he would just sit on the couch without any care!
He is no different from Ruan Ji and Ji Kang who came later, and is even more casual than those literati.

On the other hand, for a soldier like Huang Gai, his actions are completely casual and natural!
And in recent years, I have gotten older.

My legs and feet are not as flexible as before!
In addition, everyone in Dongwu respected him very much.

Naturally, I will act more spontaneously and without any scruples!

Even when it comes to Zhou Yu, no matter how polite and law-abiding others are,

It won’t affect him either!

In the past, people could be a little more particular and sit on the floor!

As time goes by, I become more casual about it!
Anyway, I'm at this age now, so I just do whatever makes me comfortable!

After all, Zhou Yu was the Grand Commander.

Although they are dignified and solemn in the camp, the law enforcement is as strong as a mountain!

However, he maintained his elegant demeanor and was respectful to the old generals.

Even give full special care!
In addition, since this expedition, Huang Gai himself has had more contact with Zhou Yu!
Now, because of the camp patrol, we meet almost every day!
Of course I am much more familiar with it than before!

In Huang Gai's eyes, Zhou Yu is a sensible and capable younger generation!
Just like the legends in later generations, “other people’s children”!
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that he had no reason to feel restrained!

So it becomes more casual!

At this moment, I was talking about serious matters while still thinking.

So naturally, I can’t care about etiquette!

Although Zhou Yu is very meticulous, he is quite tolerant about this point!
I'm just a little anxious!
He frowned slightly and raised his hand calmly!

There was a noise behind immediately!

In an instant, a boy came with a marching stool!
Place it carefully next to Huang Gai!
Huang Gai was very happy, but he wasn't surprised at all!
Zhou Yu has always been like this in these details! He is already very used to it.

However, he was still very grateful for the courtesy from the Grand Commander!
He quickly got up from the seat, sat comfortably on the stool, and said with emotion:

"The Grand Commander is indeed very considerate! Now I am old and weak."

"It's more comfortable to sit like this!"

Zhou Yu nodded, and without saying much, simply asked again:
"As long as you feel comfortable, old general, now you can tell me in detail what happened!"

"What did you see during your patrol today?" Huang Gai finally calmed down.

He bowed earnestly to Zhou Yu and replied sternly:
"Grand Commander, please relax!"

"Huang has been on this journey today."

"I saw the soldiers of the three armed forces dressed in neat uniforms and trained seriously."

"No difference from usual!"

"If a war breaks out, there won't be any problem!"

"They must be good guys who can fight ten people at once!"

When Zhou Yu heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief!

I couldn't help but secretly complain:
What's wrong with this old man? Is he doing this on purpose?
Is it because I'm getting old that I start to like making a fuss so much?

Since everyone is no different from usual.

What do you mean by saying this to me in such an angry tone when you come back?
Could it be that he saw that I had nothing to do and came here to play with me?
But Zhou Yu was the commander-in-chief of the three armies after all, and he never showed his emotions!
Especially in front of a rough guy like Huang Gai.

Such a sensitive detail must not be noticed by him!

Zhou Yu calmed down a bit and asked:
"What did the old general just say?"

Huang Gai waved his hand, still looking careless, and replied disapprovingly:
"Don't worry, Grand Commander. I'm not talking about the people of Jiangdong!"

"It has something to do with our friendly forces!"

Having said that, he suddenly felt a flash of impatience on Zhou Yu's face!
Only then did I realize that I was a little slow, and quickly explained:
"I mainly learned to say that those people from Changsha were dishonest!"

"Those soldiers under him naturally didn't dare to say anything more."

"Besides, I just focus on practicing every day and don't have much time to nag!"

"It's the officers and soldiers they transferred from Liu Bei's army."

"They are all grown men, but they love to grumble to each other in the back!"

"Obviously, now under the control of our army, they are quite dissatisfied with the Grand Commander!"

"Today I had a quarrel with them on the spot!"

"I dare not say anything more now!"

"It just made me so angry that I still haven't recovered from it!"

Huang Gai's words made Zhou Yu somewhat enlightened.

He has always been romantic, unrestrained and elegant!

But after all, he was born a military general, so he is full of passion!

Normally, he has a very good relationship with most of the generals in the account.

The communication has been very smooth!

There are even many people who are his acquaintances and old friends!
Moreover, Zhou Yu was confident that he was also deeply respected and loved by his soldiers!
In front of Sun Quan, he was directly nominated as the spokesperson by a group of generals!
This is especially true during this battle with Cao’s army!

During this court debate.

Zhou Yu even represented all the generals and directly asked Sun Quan to fight!
It played a decisive role in Sun Quan's final decision!

He is regarded as an absolute leader by the entire army!
Even the General Huang in front of him.

Being so casual and natural in front of her, she actually didn't treat him as an outsider!
As one of the top three most outstanding figures in the world, Zhou Yu naturally knew this well!

So, I never blamed him for being rude.

On the contrary, I feel quite proud of being trusted and respected!
