Chapter 5: Behead Me
Those rugged men obviously didn't take this short old man seriously, even if the old man's beard trembled very much. Just as Ge was about to beat these people, Di walked out of them with a grin, and Di didn't look at Ge's body, and led everyone to the side of the carriage. Seeing Di, Ge put away his short sword, snorted coldly, got into the carriage, and pinned his head in the other direction.
Zhao Kuo is a guest of the three major gates, Di is the most brave, but he is a little unable to control his mouth and talk a lot. Ge has the most stinky temper and is not good at dealing with people, but he is the only one who is literate among the three major customers, and he can even be regarded as Zhao Kuo's half enlightenment teacher. As for Xing, Xing's reputation is very bad in the entire horse service, before he joined Zhao Kuo, even if he was a notorious ranger in Handan City, after taking refuge in Zhao Kuo, he did not do any less evil things.
It's just that he is the most capable of doing things in Zhao Kuo's door, and Zhao Kuo is willing to appoint him to complete anything he encounters, over the years, he has never messed up a thing, he is diligent, Zhao Kuo doesn't like him as a person, but he didn't drive him away.
"Shaojun, I heard that virtuous people are as dazzling as a torch in the night, so that the corporal can come from thousands of miles to take refuge, these are the heroes around the horse suit, they can follow Shaojun without fear of death, I ask Shaojun to keep them." , Di bowed to Zhao Kuo, and then said.
Ge Leng snorted and didn't say anything, but Zhao Kuo felt a little headache, this guy is just asking for trouble for himself, and he doesn't have any ambitions, a person who aspires to be an otaku, what do you want so many doormen?
Zhao Kuo looked at those heroes, most of them were sturdy men, wearing weapons, there were many warriors in the land of Yan Zhao, these were probably all the well-known warriors in the Mafu area, they looked at Zhao Kuo eagerly, and their eyes seemed to be flashing, which made Zhao Kuo even more headache, and I don't know what Di said to these people, which made them so excited, Zhao Kuo thought for a moment before standing up and facing them.
"I know that the second and third sons are all well-known heroes in Mafu, and you can come to serve me, which is something that makes me happy, but I am just a young man without a beard, and I am worried that the second and third sons will not do anything if they follow me."
As soon as Zhao Kuo's words came out, the originally lively road suddenly fell silent. The heroes looked at Zhao Kuo in disbelief, even Di, his eyes widened, among the heroes, there was a man with a long face and a few beards, glaring at Zhao Kuo angrily, and asked: "Does Ma Fuzi think that we are greedy for fame and fame, and we came to follow you for meritorious service?" ”
Isn't it?? Zhao Kuo looked at them blankly.
Seeing that Zhao Kuo didn't answer, the man suddenly pulled out the short sword from his waist, and the rest of the people also pulled out their weapons one after another, at this time, Zhao Kuo was really a little panicked, what does this mean? If you don't want you, you're going to do it with me? Di, Go! Zhao Kuo looked at his two doormen, but Di lowered his head, his face was full of shame, and Ge on the side still raised his head high, ignoring the situation here.
When these heroes aimed their weapons at themselves, Zhao Kuo was terrified, and he understood what these people wanted to do.
They don't want to do anything to Zhao Kuo, they want to cut themselves!
In this way, it is proved that they did not follow Zhao Kuo for fame, they only came to follow because of the admiration in their hearts. The heroes at this time are a little different from the later ones, in the land of Yan Zhao, most of these heroes are from good backgrounds, not the lowest Qiantou, they can't be insulted. Not to mention them, even the leaders at the bottom cannot be humiliated.
What they need is not money, nor fame, what they need is attention, a kind of trust.
In the past, Zheng Guo and Song State were at war, Song State's general Hua Yuan, before the war, slaughtered sheep to reward the three armies, he rewarded everyone, but forgot to distribute the mutton to his own driver Yang Pour, Yang Pour, Yang Pour, was very angry, thinking that the general did not pay attention to himself, he was insulted, so, at the time of the war, Yang Pour, directly drove into Zheng State's camp, Hua Yuan was captured, Song State was defeated, which is why people in this era can not be humiliated.
"Stop!" , Zhao Kuo hurriedly shouted.
Everyone looked at Zhao Kuo again, Zhao Kuo hurriedly got out of the carriage, he didn't want to see so many people die for his words, if it was the original Zhao Kuo, maybe it wouldn't matter, but from the soul of two thousand years later, he was not allowed to be so indifferent to life, he frowned, looked at these people seriously, and saluted and said: "It's Kuo's fault, Kuo has realized his mistake, please forgive the second and third sons." ”
He bowed like this, but it startled these people who were not afraid of death, they hurriedly avoided it, did not receive Zhao Kuo's big gift, and hurriedly bowed again, "We are all willing to follow your side, we are lowly people, we can't accept your courtesy, please let us follow you, drive for you, and release horses for you." ”
"Okay."
"Shaojun is really a person of faith, I have lived in vain for so many years, but I didn't follow you earlier!"
"I'm going to gouge out one of my eyes, it turns out that the person we have always wanted to follow lives next to us!"
Everyone shouted, some even burst into tears, crying, seeing this strange scene, Zhao Kuo did not laugh, he felt something, in more than 20 years of life has not felt something.
........
Handan City, the most famous is the beauty, Zhao produces beautiful women, this is the consensus of the world, the princes are proud to marry Zhao Nu, and the beauties of Zhao are mostly concentrated in this Handan City, Handan City is the largest city in Zhao State, here, you can see merchants from Qi State, warriors from Yan Land, and even taxi from Chu State, these people wear red Chu clothes, speak a "bird language" that Zhao people do not understand, swaggering on the road.
The restaurant here is not an official camp like Qin, so the atmosphere is not so solemn, and many men can be seen sitting in the restaurant, boasting about something.
"I heard others say that Ma Fuzi is a really talented person, Ma Fuzi has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and no one can beat him, even when Ma Fujun was alive, he was not Ma Fuzi's opponent, and he was often speechless by him, Zhao has such a talent, why is Shangjun unwilling to let him lead Zhao State's chariot to defeat Qin's army?"
"I heard that the people who eat meat are mediocre, they are jealous of Ma Fuzi's talent, the Qin people have taken our Shangdang, and they still want to capture Changping, we can only defend it, if Ma Fuzi can command the chariot of Zhao State, how can the Qin people continue to be arrogant?" As one of them spoke, his fist angrily smashed on the wooden case in front of him. The Zhao people are not afraid of death, and since they changed their clothes and rode on their war horses, the people of Zhao have never lowered their heads.
Now the war with Qin, the defeat of Zhao State, this is undoubtedly stirring the nerves of Zhao people, almost all Zhao people are talking about this matter, they are very angry, they have been insulted, Zhao people can not be humiliated, in this case, Zhao Kuo's reputation swept the entire Zhao State at once, not only in Handan, almost everywhere there are Zhao people, you can hear Zhao Kuo's name.
The Zhao people boasted that if our horses and suits had gone on the expedition, the Qin people would have gone home a long time ago, how could there be a matter of a lieutenant being captured by the Qin people?
It is said that in Yan Kingdom, there are even Zhao people who kill people because of Zhao Kuo's affairs, and the reason for the killing is that when this Zhao people are vigorously boasting about Zhao Kuo, a Yan person asks him, who is Zhao Kuo? So, this person felt that Zhao Kuo... No, yourself... It's not right, this warrior who felt that the entire Zhao country was insulted, killed this Yan man on the spot.
In a compound in the south of Handan City, an old man and a young man sat facing each other.
"I followed your advice and went to find Kuo."
"However, he was not happy with my words, he said, I am his friend, and he will not do anything to hurt me."
Hearing Ying Yiren's words, the elder was stunned, stroked his beard, and asked in surprise, "Did he see our intentions?" Didn't Childe say that he was arrogant and impulsive? How can he see through our schemes? ”
Ying Yiren was silent for a long time before he said: "I've known Kuo for two years, he can't see this strategy, he probably really regards me as a friend... Unwilling to do anything that hurts me. Ying Yiren said, his expression was even more complicated, the old man looked at him helplessly, he was very optimistic about the young man in front of him, this unfavored son, and he had great ambitions in his heart.
He can bend and stretch, even if Zhao people insult him, he can turn a blind eye, after he proposed to Zhao Kuo to the death, he actually wanted to go in person to increase the success of the strategy, so as not to make people doubt, such courage is really loved by the elderly. This is the best treasure for me. However, Ying Yiren also has shortcomings, because he was not favored since he was a child, and then he came to Zhao Guo and was insulted, he is very sensitive.
Zhao Kuo just expressed some kindness to him, which made this young man who had never experienced being cared for lose his bearings.
"He treats me as a friend, I really don't want to do anything to hurt him, he is probably the only friend in the entire Zhao Kingdom who treats me sincerely, it is better for us to change someone to take Lian Po's position." , Ying Yiren said.
The elder knew that it would be like this, and sighed helplessly, how easy it is to change people, in order to support this Zhao Kuo, but he is going bankrupt, and all his savings for decades have been used to increase the reputation of this young man, and now, even in the Chu State in the south, there are people who remember the name Zhao Kuo. In addition, Zhao Kuo, a young man, was recommended to Qin by Yingyiren, if it is implemented by another person, then what is the matter with you, son? How to gain the favor of the Qin people?
However, the elder didn't say that, he knew Yingyiren's temperament, so he couldn't convince him.
He bowed to Ying Yiren and said, "I hope you can promise me one thing." ”
Ying Yiren was about to help him up and said, "You are my teacher, you shouldn't treat me with such etiquette, you just say." ”
"I want to ask you to promise me that if one day, I stand in your way to great things, please kill me. I don't want people like you to delay their ambitions because of personal feelings, so please promise me. ", the elder said seriously.
Ying Yiren clenched his fists, trembling all over, and gritted his teeth.
"Well... I agreed. ”
"Then next, how should King Zhao appoint Zhao Kuo?" , Ying Yiren asked solemnly.
