three kings

Chapter 81
"Look at the soldiers behind you. If a team of thousands of people is here to attack our army, what will happen?" Liu Hua asked when Sun Can's mood improved.

Sun Can glanced back and saw that the soldiers all lowered their heads, lifeless, and said in horror: "We must be defeated. Our soldiers have always had high morale. How can they be so depressed after undergoing rigorous training?"

Liu Hua said seriously: "Because you..."

"I...why?" Sun Can was a little puzzled, more puzzled.

Liu Hua said: "Do you know how Feng Xiao evaluated you?... He said that you are exactly like Huo Qubing in leading the battle, and you have a very human intuition. But he is more ruthless than you, but less hearty. Huo Qubing is ruthless to the soldiers, he never cared about the life and death of the soldiers, so he can only be an invincible general who charges into the battle. But you are different, you have more heart than him, so you can be a wise general, handsome, and even a king. The reason why Huo Qubing There are soldiers who are loyal to him because Huo Qubing can bring them glory and merit. But the team behind you is different. You can not only bring them glory and merit, but also bring them warmth.

Huo Qubing's army only knows how to fight, but your army has more humanity after fighting.All soldiers care about you and care about you.They are happy when you are happy, and sad when you are sad.If you are in a bad mood, they will naturally be in a bad mood.

Because, in this army, you are their backbone, their soul.The soul is lifeless, how do you say this army is on fire?

You are not what you were a year ago. You can cry when you want, and laugh when you want. You are now the soul of an army. Joy, anger, sorrow, and joy will affect everyone in the army. "Liu Hua said very seriously.

Sun Can also listened very seriously.

"Master, thank you. I understand. Since they have entrusted their lives to disciples, disciples will naturally not make them feel unhappy." He figured it out. The higher the status and the greater the power, the more often they must Abandon some things, only in this way can we do better.Especially feelings, but also need to be buried in the bottom of my heart.

"Yide, why are you acting like a girl, listless? Give me cheer up, or I'll beat you up."

Zhang Fei suddenly came to life, and murmured, "As long as the general is happy, what about hitting old Zhang?"

If others say this, Sun Can can treat him as a sycophant and ignore it.However, Zhang Fei has always been straightforward, and what he said was completely from his heart.As long as it can make Sun Can happy, what does it matter if he suffers some grievances?
Sun Can was very moved, and laughed loudly: "I remember this, if you are in a bad mood, I will beat you a few times to vent your anger."

Zhang Fei pretended to be a girl, and said, "Are you really here? I am the general's number one favorite general, are you willing to fight?"

Sun Can smiled and said, "Haha...Of course I'm willing, anyway, you have a thick skin."

"You know you're bullying me, Lao Zhang, so don't come!" Zhang Fei said as if he had been wronged infinitely.

The whole army burst out laughing.

"Okay, the goal is Wancheng, there is our new starting point! The whole army is going!" Sun Can waved his horsewhip vigorously, pointing at Wancheng.

"Okay... oh..." Sun Can's army shouted in unison, and their morale rose immediately.

When they arrived at the territory of Wancheng, suddenly one person and one rider galloped past Sun Can's army, and stopped in front of Sun Can.

Zhang Fei yelled angrily: "Thief boy, why are you looking for a fight? The official road is so broad, why are you standing in front of our army?"

Sun Can said: "Yide, don't be rude." He stopped Zhang Fei's actions, and then said to the person, "This strong man, why is he blocking our way?"

The person who came was a strong man with a height of eight feet, with a face that was cut like a knife. It is worth mentioning that his eyebrows, other people's eyebrows are like crescent moons, forming an arc.But his eyebrows are different, they are raised upwards, giving people a feeling of calmness and prestige, and the big ax in his hand exudes bursts of cold air, one can tell that it is not ordinary.

He clasped his fists and said, "The speaker is Sun Can, the prefect of Wan County?"

Sun Can said: "I'm here, I don't know..."

Before Sun Can finished speaking, the visitor got off his horse, threw the weapon aside, knelt down in front of Sun Can, bowed his head, and said, "Great benefactor, please accept Xu Huang's three respects."

Sun Can was a little puzzled, got off his horse and helped the guy who called himself Xu Huang, and said, "Why does Xu Zhuang make such a big gift? Sun Can is too young to be ashamed, please hurry up."

Xu Huang said: "Xu is a native of Yang County, Hedong. He worked as a small official in the county. Later, he followed Yang Feng to suppress the Yellow Turban Uprising and was worshiped as a captain of cavalry. Not long ago, my wife gave birth to a son." Xu Huang said here With a guilty face, he said: "It's all because Xu was so concerned about the affairs of the county that he didn't even know that the child was sick, which caused my good wife to drag her sick body to find a doctor, but was beaten unconscious on the road by the thief and took my son away. My wife and I were so anxious that we searched all over Hedong but couldn't find any trace of the baby. My wife passed out from crying several times, and Xu was also mentally and physically exhausted.

But just when Xu was about to give up, news came from the government office that En Gong killed Zhang Rang and rescued the baby, and there were still nine babies waiting to be claimed.Xu reported the mentality of giving it a try, and went to the government office to have a look.Unexpectedly, I actually found my child who had been missing for several months.This son is the only bloodline of my Xu family. If there is a mistake, what face will Xu Huang have to see the ancestors under Jiuquan again.The prefect deserves three respects from Xu Huang for his great kindness. "

With that said, Xu Huang was about to kneel down again.

Sun Can helped him and said: "General Xu worshiped three times for this, and he was willing to travel thousands of miles to find Can, which shows that the general is a righteous man who knows how to repay his kindness. Sun Can's removal of traitors is only for the word 'justice', not for the sake of justice." The general's three salutes. Don't mention these three salutes to the general again, so as not to hurt the atmosphere. Chan, who loves to make friends with loyal officials, is so happy to meet the general today. If you don't dislike it, Wanjun is not far away. Why don't we go together Have a glass of water and wine, so I can talk about how we met today."

"Forget it!" Xu Huang stood up and said, "Since the general's words have reached this point, Xu is not conventional. The general's words are also in line with Huang's intentions, but it is stated in advance that this banquet is for Xu Huang's guests."

"Okay!" Sun Can didn't care so much with Xu Huang, and said, "You please, let's go together."

Seeing that Sun Can was forthright without any pretensions, Xu Huang felt happy that he had made friends with such a great person.

The prefect of Wancheng was originally Qin Jie, but later died of a recurrence of injury.The imperial court did not have a suitable candidate for a while, so it kept pressing.It happened that Sun Can was excluded because of Zhang Rang, so Liu Hong transferred him to Wancheng.

After entering Wan County, Sun Can and Chang Shi handed over the prefect's seal and all the materials, and officially became the lord of Wan City.

After a while, news came from outside the house that Xu Huang invited Sun Can to a tavern for a banquet.

Liu Hua came to Sun Can's side and said, "Leave the matters here to me. Go and drink with Xu Huang. It's best to persuade him to join our army. With him in our army, his strength will definitely rise to a higher level. He General Gao Shun's ability is not inferior to General Gao Shun. General Gao Shun is good at attacking, and the soldiers under his command are invincible and invincible. But Xu Huang is good at managing the army, and he is cautious in using troops. , chasing and striving for profit, the saying that scholars have no time to eat' is the talent of a general."

Sun Can was taken aback, and said, "Master, how do you know so clearly?"

Liu Hua made a sloppy smile with a dry smile and said: "This... I know a little about how to judge people, and I have heard others say it, and then I summed it up...Okay, let's go, don't make people wait for a long time. It’s gone.” He glanced at Sun Can with a guilty conscience, and thought in his heart: “It’s better to let out less information in the future, if it gets out and causes trouble, it’s not good.”

Sun Can has long been used to Liu Hua's mystique, and always feels a little unbelievable about his affairs, but he also knows that Liu Hua will not harm him, so he takes Zhang Fei and Xu Huang to a restaurant for a drink.

After drinking for three rounds, Xu Huang and Sun Can have talked for a long time, and found that Xu Huang is really just like Liu Hua said, steady, rigorous, decisive and courageous, he is indeed the talent of a general.Although I don't know how good his martial arts are, but looking at the fifty-jin big axe, he can tell that his martial arts are not bad.

Sun Can was also moved by the idea of ​​loving talents, and said: "Gongming, you have the talent of Yafu. It is really difficult for a small cavalry captain to grow up with great ambitions. If you don't come to our army. Although I can't give you a big official title, but Definitely reuse it."

Xu Huang's heart moved, and Sun Can's words went into his heart. He looked at it openly, and didn't care how big an official position was or how high his status was. What he cared about was whether he could be reused and whether his talents could be brought into play. , that's all.But Yang Feng's talent is really limited, even this simple wish can't satisfy him.

After thinking about it, he finally made up his mind and said, "Thanks to the general for not giving up, I am willing to help."

"Haha" Sun Can laughed, "Since Gong Ming has joined our army, you and I are comrades in arms who depend on each other for life and death. Come and have a drink with us."

Xu Huang also said with a smile: "Okay, Xu will do it first as a respect."

While the three of them were drinking happily, the soldiers came to report that a team of about 5000 people had appeared ten miles south of the city and was approaching Wan County.

"Let's go and have a look." Sun Can put down his wine glass and walked towards the south of the city.

Xu Huang and Zhang Fei also walked out together.

When the group arrived in Nancheng, they found that Liu Hua and Gao Shun were already on the city wall.

Sun Can asked: "Master, who is the other party? I don't seem to have heard of bandit soldiers in Wan County in Luoyang."

Liu Hua was also unclear, and said, "I don't know. Wan County has just taken over, and many places have not been put into operation. There is very little information that can be obtained. It is still uncertain who the other party is."

Seeing the opportunity to show off, Xu Huang immediately said: "How about letting the last general lead a team to explore the wind?"
