Chapter 8 Xuan Su Xu Rong

"Xu Infantry, it turns out that you are now one of the captains of these eight levels, the more I didn't expect to come down from the battlefield and see the robes fighting together, please accept San Lang's bow."

After a few steps between the two, Ma Yue said as he walked forward, saying that the last thing was to bow down.

This surprised Xu Rong, and hurriedly held Ma Yue's arm and said: "Captain Ma don't want to be like this, a few days ago I heard that Captain Ma made immortal feats on the battlefield but resigned in Luoyang, I saw it here today, presumably those rumors are true?" ”

"It's hard to say in a word, I'll talk to the lieutenant in detail later." Ma Yue waved his hand, looked back at the car behind him and said: "Today's Laba shooting, a friend around Luoyang, I heard that Mengjin is the source of the Yellow River's freezing, so I want to go out of the customs to browse the scenery at the ferry, do you see if you can let the car pass under it, give it a convenience?" ”

"What's so hard about this, brethren, switch!"

As soon as Xu Rong beckoned, the gate blocking the city pass slowly opened, An Mu drove the carriage and Wei Zhongdao through first, and Ma Yue led the horse and Xu Rong into the pass on foot.

"At present, the yellow scarf is decided, the world is peaceful, and the teacher will go to Youzhou to take office in the near future, so it is like Your Majesty to resign to deal with some family affairs, if the war breaks out again in the future, it is not too late to serve Your Majesty, after all, ...... A warrior like me, what else can he do but go into battle to kill the enemy? ”

"The captain is too arrogant, a young warrior like you who has a noble person to carry His Majesty's blue eyes, even if he doesn't kill the enemy, he can be a county general." Xu Rong laughed as he spoke, his expression between his words was a little envious, and he didn't look like a fake obedient words, so he continued: "Teaching the teacher, but the order of the Ministry of Scholars?" ”

"Yes, the election of Shangshu Ling is the teacher, Your Majesty was killed by the Yellow Turban because of the former Youzhou Assassin Guo Xun, and now there is no assassination history in Youzhou, so he ordered the teacher to serve as the assassin in the future...... It's just that I heard that Youzhou is similar to our Liangzhou, and it is located in the border of Han and Hu, and I am not very relieved that my teacher will go to me. ”

"Youzhou, Youzhou is the same as your Liangzhou, it is a place for warriors! To tell you the truth, in the early years, I experienced several major battles from the Youzhou Border Army, and I was promoted to Luoyang as a captain. If it weren't for Guo Xun speaking ill of me, I wouldn't have stayed in a place like a lieutenant for years. ”

"Xu Duwei is from Youzhou?"

"yes, eh, I haven't been back for many years, and I don't know if all those friends back home are okay...... How long has Captain Ma been away from Liangzhou? ”

"Two ...... It's been two years. Ma Yue thought about it, it had been two years. Then he said to Xu Rong: "Du Wei, let's not be a school captain, you said that Ma San'er is a white body, your general captain is called the captain of the school, and the little brother is weird and panicked, it is not as good as a brother, I call you brother, how about it?" ”

"Good! That's a big brother to entrust. In fact, I really envy you, brother Xian, if you want to be idle, you can be idle, like a brother like a general, who has no merit and no one to support him, he grabs a lot of money in the world, where he dares to resign, even if he is a friend in his hometown, he doesn't dare to go back. For fear that if you resign and return to your hometown, you will be forgotten by the world, don't you say that the warriors of our border counties are accompanied by archers and horses just to kill the marquis. Huh. ”

Xu Rong is a brother, but he doesn't support it at all, but Ma Yue is a little bigger, Xu Rong is now thirty and one, which is enough older than Ma Yue and eleven years old, not to mention that now the official is more than two thousand stones, and he is not many times older than Ma Yue's white body, and he is not big and safe.

When Ma Yue heard that Xu Rong agreed, he was very happy, and said to Xu Rong: "Brother don't be upset, maybe fate is in the future." By the way, the elder brother is from Youzhou, and the younger brother will escort the teacher to Youzhou after the year. ”

Ma Yue said that he was affectionate, but in the final analysis, he and Xu Rong were just friendships who had fought together, and it was easy to become intimate, but it was still far from putting his heart to heart, even if Xu Rong had it, he would not be embarrassed to let him run errands on his behalf, Ma Yue said this was just a polite remark.

Xu Rong smiled and said, "Brother Xian is kind enough to understand my brother's heart, but there is really no urgent letter to send at the moment." By the way, if Shang Shuling goes to Youzhou and no one helps, the virtuous brother can go to Liaodong County to find a brother named Gongsun Du, he was a scholar in Shangshu Province when he was young, and later did a thorn in Jizhou. ”

While speaking, Xu Rong had already sent Ma Yue out of the gate, and Ma Yue thanked Xu Rong and said: "Thank you, brother, then I will say goodbye first, come to Japan, brother can come to visit at home when he is resting, and the younger brother will definitely sweep the couch to greet him, and then he will be drunk again." ”

"Brother Xian, walk slowly."

"Brother stay."

Ma Yue said goodbye, and then he got on his horse and caught up with the chariot and went to the Mengjin ferry a few miles away.

Seeing that Ma Yue was back, An Mu started the car again, and Wei Zhongdao smiled on the horse: "Brother Ma, is that the captain of Mengjin Pass Xu Rong?" ”

"Why, Nakado knows him?"

"I don't know, I've just heard of his name." Wei Zhongdao said with a smile: "I heard that Xu Rong's popularity is not good, and many generals in private scold him as 'Lao Ge', when he was transferred to the imperial court from Youzhou for seven or eight years, he was a captain, and he served as a lieutenant of various counties and a lieutenant of the Northern Army, and he is still a lieutenant now, so he is very famous." ”

"That's because someone else has eyes and doesn't know Tarzan." Ma Yue said disdainfully, he really didn't expect that a good general like Xu Rong would have the title of 'Lao Ge' in Luoyang, isn't this just scolding him for being a veteran.

"They don't know that this Xu Rong is talented." Ma Yue said firmly, "There are many dead and wounded in the five captains of the Yellow Turban, adding up to more than 20,000, the first battalion of Xu Rong's infantry has won all the battles, and the subordinates of the squad division have only died 500 on the day of their triumph, such generals are the mainstay of our dynasty!" ”

"If it's like Brother Ma said so, then why hasn't this Xu Rong been promoted? With such excellent battle damage, I'm afraid it's more than enough to be a general. ”

"He was too cautious in his battles, unlike many generals who liked to use dangerous tactics, so he killed few enemies and was not outstanding enough. But the same soldiers and horses, in the hands of others, killed two of their own people and killed three enemies, such as the Sun Jian from Wu County, eight hundred broke a thousand two, and in the end he still had two hundred people left, but this is a war achievement. But Xu Rong killed one of his own people and killed six enemies. So he killed 500 people in his hands, and the battle against the Yellow Turban only killed more than 3,000 people in total, and if such a level is put in the tens of thousands of others, it is naturally not conspicuous enough, not to mention that there is no backer to support, how can he be promoted? ”

Wei Zhongdao nodded, he didn't have any interest in military strategy, but he still asked casually, "Then like Brother Ma, the soldiers who came to guard the eight passes after the battle and have not yet gone out know the big names, how many ranks do they have to cut in the battle against the Yellow Turban?" ”

"I haven't calculated, I resigned from the final battle report, and I didn't read it." Ma Yue lowered his head and thought about it, and said casually: "About 30,000." ”
