Chapter 44: Worthless Talents

Sitting on the top of the chair, Liu Tao naturally has to find a way to recruit talents, although his reputation is not obvious now, and his net worth is not prominent, it does not mean that Liu Tao has no other means. Sun Jian was going to attack Bishui Pass, and the book said that Sun Jian failed because he had no food, but now he gave Sun Jian enough food and grass, and reached a deal with Sun Jian in private to deal with Huaxiong, in short, whether it was successful or not, it was impossible for Liu Tao to return empty-handed this time.

"Yuan League Master, the last general is new to the court and doesn't know the etiquette, please forgive Yuan League Master." Liu Tao begged to see Yuan Shao in the middle of the night, and in the past few days, Liu Tao sprinkled a lot of wine and glass products, which made the princes very jealous, but everyone had a share, and they were embarrassed to ask Liu Tao for it.

Yuan Shao sat on the top and didn't understand what Liu Tao meant by coming to see him in the middle of the night, but Yuan Shao's heart was also full of excitement, a few days ago Liu Tao gave him a few bottles of good wine so that he still misses it. Yuan Shao looked at Liu Tao, staring at the box in Dian Wei's hand who was following Liu Tao.

"Alliance leader, the last general came here this time to ask for something." Liu Tao put his attitude very low, Liu Tao has already inquired clearly, Gao Ran is still a low-level officer in Yuan Shao's army, Zhang He has not yet taken refuge in Yuan Shao, and Gao Ran cannot have a bright future at this time.

"Oh, I don't know what Pengju is asking for? But it doesn't hurt to say that. The corners of Yuan Shao's mouth outlined a smug smile, as long as you have something to ask me, are you afraid that you will not give a gift? It is said that the fourth generation and the third prince of Yuan Shao's family, I have never seen any treasures, but the thing in front of Liu Tao in front of him surprised Yuan Shao every time he took out.

"Alliance leader, the last general intends to contribute to the coalition army, but there are only two generals in our army who can be used, and the last general, this military attaché, is His Majesty's personal title, but the last general does not understand military affairs." Liu Tao thought about it and got straight to the point with Yuan Shao, anyway, now you Yuan Benchu is not a good bird: "So the last general came this time to borrow two generals from the Yuan League Lord, help the last general to rectify the army and serve the coalition army, and also ask the alliance leader to agree to the request of the last general." ”

After listening to Liu Tao's words, a trace of light flashed in Yuan Shao's eyes, his eyes stared sharply at Liu Tao, and he couldn't help but start thinking in his heart. Although the two generals under Liu Tao did not show force, according to his general Ju Yi, it is speculated that neither of them is simple. This Liu Pengju is now looking for his own loan? Is there some conspiracy here?

"Pengju laughed, the two generals under your command are both generals, how can you say that there are no generals under your command? Furthermore, my coalition will be sour and fight against Dong Thief, where did you come from? There are many generals in need, and I have no extra generals to lend you. Yuan Shao looked at Liu Tao and decisively rejected Liu Tao's request.

"How dare you borrow the generals under the command of the alliance leader? Although there are 2,000 elites of the Northern Army in our army, most of them are recruits, and although the two generals in our army, Tai Shici and Dian Wei, are military, they can't do everything themselves, so the last general wants to help the middle and middle-level generals of the alliance leader to help the last general take charge of the army, so that he can better obey the orders of the alliance leader and serve the alliance leader. ”

Liu Tao's last few words touched Yuan Shao's heart, don't look at the harmony between the coalition forces now, everyone is united under their own command to fight against Dong thief, but there are also contradictions in the coalition army. Although Yuan Shao came to the alliance with 50,000 troops this time, there were not many cavalry, and if he could incorporate the 2,000 elite northern army under Liu Tao, he would undoubtedly increase his strength. Borrowing, in the final analysis, is a borrowed word? This will be borrowed, who are you going to listen to? It's not to listen to yourself, when the time comes, you can recruit at least 2,000 elite horsemen without blood, isn't this a pie that has fallen from the world?

"Alliance Master Yuan, these bottles of wine are treasured below, and they are several times better than the wine given to the alliance leader before." Liu Tao took the box from Dian Wei's hand, opened it, took out a bottle of Moutai and sent it to Yuan Shao, the ancients were good wine, this is definitely not blown out, and sure enough, Yuan Shao was about to fall as soon as he smelled the rich aroma of wine.

"Alliance leader, these two treasures were obtained in the far west of the country, they called this soap, it has a cleansing and health care effect, and every time you take a bath, you can use a little bit to ensure that people will be free from diseases and disasters for a lifetime. This Westerner is called a telescope, which is said to be able to see thousands of miles away, and is a treasure that is essential for marching and fighting. There is only one of these two treasures in the world, and the last general will not dare to hide it privately, and is willing to dedicate it to the alliance leader. Yuan Shao picked up the treasure offered by Liu Tao, and the corners of his eyes twitched a few times, according to past experience, since this Liu Tao dared to say that they must have this effect.

Yuan Shao picked up the telescope on the market for a few hundred yuan a piece, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, he was startled when he saw it, and the person standing in front of him was magnified several times. Liu Tao also hurriedly explained the role of this treasure to Yuan Shao, which shocked Yuan Shao's heart. As the saying goes, the more you get, the more you have to pay, and the few treasures that Liu Tao put in front of him are all of great value, which can be said to be treasures that Yuan Shao has never seen in his life, and this price is natural.

"The alliance leader, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, Ju Yi The three generals are the generals under the alliance leader, I never dare to fight this thought, the last general came this time just to borrow a few captains from the alliance leader to help lead the army."

"This is very good, I see that the military appearance in your army is not neat, although the two generals under your command have the talent of generals, but the snake has a head alone, and a snake body and a snake tail. I will transfer 20 lieutenants from the army to serve in your army, hoping that you will serve the coalition army wholeheartedly, fight against Dong thieves, and frame the Han family. Yuan Shao was also greatly relieved after listening to Liu Tao's words, he was also worried that Liu Tao would ask him to borrow Yan Liang and Wen Chou, although the two were not around, but as long as Liu Tao opened his mouth, whether he agreed or not was a problem for him. However, Yuan Shao obviously couldn't treat Liu Tao badly, and then said: "In this way, in addition to the generals in my coalition army, you have a favorite captain, and I can transfer them to you as well." ”

"Thank you Alliance Leader, the last general will definitely serve the coalition forces!" After hearing this, Liu Tao also hurriedly showed respect, and hurriedly bowed his hand to Yuan Shao and said: "The last general has no old knowledge among the coalition forces, but the two generals who received the last general, Gao Langao, who received the last general when he came to meet the alliance, and Zhang He, the military Sima under the command of Han Taishou, don't know the alliance leader?" ”

Although Yuan Shao had doubts after listening to the two names reported by Liu Tao, he was slightly suspicious in his heart, but he was quickly relieved. Gao Lan, he hadn't heard of it at all, Zhang He was just a military horse, although he was a military master under Han Fu, but he was no different from his own. It is okay for these two to be transferred to him, but he will find two people to come to lecture later, if the two of them are really capable, they might as well recruit them for an official position and take the opportunity to seize power in the army sent to Liu Tao.

"Okay, Pengju, please rest assured, I will transfer these two people to you early tomorrow morning."

"Then the general will not disturb the rest of the alliance leader, and the general will leave." Liu Tao knew that things couldn't be too much, if he said too much, Gao Ran and Zhang He might not be able to come under his command.

Yuan Shaomu sent Liu Tao away, and said a word to the guards beside him, and soon Gao Ran, Zhang He, and the eighteen captains who were to be transferred to Liu Tao appeared in the camp together. And Liu Tao naturally saw all this through the monitor made by Alpha, and even knew what they were saying. Liu Tao's heart couldn't help but begin to despise Yuan Shao, Made, compare treasures with me to attract talents, there are times when you regret it.
