Chapter 801: A Step to the Sky
The book is picked up again.
Ten days later, Jizhou.
"A certain Gao Ran, I have seen a hussar general!" After Gao Ran saw Li Zhi, he was very nervous, and immediately made a big bow to Li Zhi, for fear that something would happen to him.
"Haha......" Li Zhi saw this. After laughing loudly, he hurriedly came to Gao Ran's side and helped him up.
After looking at him carefully, he patted him on the shoulder and said with relief: "You don't have to be so polite, it should be Ben Hou who thanks you."
If it weren't for you, Ben Hou wouldn't have gotten such a big benefit! ”
"Don't dare!" After Gao Ran heard Li Zhi's words, he immediately lowered his head and replied with a sincere face: "The subordinates just did what they had to do, and they didn't dare to be praised so much by the hussar general." ”
"Haha......" After Li Zhi heard Gao Lan's self-title, he laughed and said: "Since you claim to be a subordinate, why do you still call Benhou a hussar general?" ”
Gao Ran's eyes lit up when he heard this, he knew that what Li Zhi said meant that Li Zhi had accepted himself.
So he hurriedly made a big salute to this Li Zhi, and said loudly: "Subordinate Gao Lan, I have seen the lord!" ”
"Good, good!" When Li Zhi heard this, he applauded with relief on his face.
Then he helped Gao Lan up and asked with a smile: "Although you have just taken refuge in Ben Hou, you have made great contributions to Ben Hou."
Moreover, you have an army of fifty or sixty thousand under your command, so your position cannot be ...... according to common sense."
After saying this, Li Zhi's brows furrowed tightly.
To be honest, he had already thought about it before he was here.
But he really didn't know what position to give Gao Ran.
Give it to Gao, he is afraid that the generals under his command will not agree, after all, although Gao Ran has made such a great contribution, but there is indeed water in this contribution, if it were not for all kinds of coincidences Gao Ran, there would be no chance to defeat Yuan Shao.
So if he gave Gao Ran a high position because of this merit, then the other generals would definitely laugh at Gao Ran behind his back for relying on luck to get to the top.
When the time comes, there will be many more turmoil.
But if it is low, I am sorry for Gao Ran's merits and the fifty or sixty thousand troops under his command.
So Li Zhi has always been very distressed about this matter.
And the reason why he said it now and pretended to be distressed was to take a look at Gao Ran's choice.
If Gao Ran insists on a high position, it proves that Gao Leng is a person who is rampant and does not know how to advance or retreat.
When the time comes, Li will know his will and give him a high-ranking official!
But! This official position is a nominal position!
If Gao Ran knew about the advance and retreat, then he would not seal Gao Ran's position too high.
But he will keep Gao Ran's credit in his heart, and once the time is ripe, he will pay back what he owes Gao Ran!
Gao Ran didn't know what Li Zhi was thinking, he saw that Li Zhi was in distress, so he immediately spoke: "Lord, although on the surface, the subordinates are indeed under the lord
A great credit.
But the lord should also know that this credit is actually a lot of water! ”
After saying this, he smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Actually, speaking of which, his subordinates don't have much credit at all. ”
Speaking of this, he counted with his fingers, "The reason why his subordinates betrayed Yuan Shao is that in addition to Yuan Shao's own reasons, the subordinate lieutenant generals have the greatest credit, so this credit belongs to him."
And the credit for capturing Yuan Shao cannot be counted on his subordinates.
Because when his subordinates faced Yuan Shao, they didn't win at all, but were beaten to the ground and almost died on the spot!
If it weren't for General Lu's sudden return, his subordinates might not even have the opportunity to see the lord, so this credit belongs to General Lu. ”
After being finished, he spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "Lord, look, although everyone says that a certain family is the first hero of this time.
But if you think about it carefully, in fact, the subordinates don't have much credit at all. ”
"......" After Li Zhi heard Gao Lan's words, he looked at him with a smile for a while before asking, "You really think so?" ”
After asking this sentence, his face changed abruptly, and he looked at Gao Ran with a solemn face, his eyes full of inquiry.
He wanted to see if Gao Ran had read through his mind when he said this, or if he really thought so.
If it's the former, then he should be careful, because a person who can instantly see through his mind and come up with a countermeasure in an instant is really terrifying!
If he said this from the bottom of his heart, then Li Zhi would reuse him in the future!
Because this kind of general who knows how to advance and retreat and is not arrogant after victory is really rare.
Gao Ran did not shy away when he heard Li Zhi's words and saw Li Zhi's eyes looking at him with blazing eyes, his eyes looked directly into Li Zhi's eyes, and said categorically: "Lord, everything your subordinates say is sincere!" If there is a word that is not true, I am willing to be thundered by the sky! ”
After Li Zhi heard Gao Ran's words, his originally tense expression immediately relaxed.
In these years, vows are very important!
There are many people who would rather die than break their oath!
Because in their view, if the oath is broken, it is death and there is no peace!
In fact, Gao Ran didn't need to make such a poisonous oath at this time, but he knew that he and Li Zhicai were just the first monarchs and ministers, and if they couldn't let each other open their hearts, it would be easy to have dirty feelings in the future.
Therefore, when he found out that Li Zhi wanted to see through, he did not hesitate, and directly opened his heart, using this very heavy oath to win Li Zhi's trust.
After Li Zhi heard Gao Ran's oath, he didn't pretend to stop him, but waited for him to finish his oath before patting him on the shoulder with relief and saying, "Ben Hou believes in you, please give me more advice in the future." ”
When Gao Ran heard this, he immediately showed his loyalty, hugged his fists, and said loudly: "Please rest assured, my subordinates will do their best to assist the lord!" ”
"Hmm" After Li Zhi nodded with a smile on his face, his face suddenly turned grim, and he said, "Gao Dian Tingfeng!" ”
After Gao Ran heard Li Zhi's sudden words, he was stunned for a moment, and then he knelt on one knee with a solemn face, clasped his fists, and said loudly: "My subordinates are here!" ”
After Gao Ran knelt down on one knee, Li Zhi pulled out the sword from his waist, put it on Gao Ran's left shoulder, and said with a solemn face: "Although you have just joined the command of Ben Hou, you have made great achievements, and many of them are not enough to level the crowd!"
So, today, as the general of the Han Hussars, Ben Hou named you General Yingyang!
In addition, after this, Benhou will send a letter to His Majesty in Chang'an, and strive to seal it with you.
Although it can't be sealed, at least it's a left chief!
Are you convinced by such a reward? ”
As a hussar general, Li Zhi naturally has the right to open the government and seal the officials.
That's why he directly bypassed Liu Xie, the emperor, and directly rewarded Gao Lan.
As for the title......
That was just a kind of compensation for Li Zhi to Gao Ran.
Although it is only a false name, it can be regarded as a glorious ancestor.
Because as long as he is knighted, the county order where his hometown is located must write a county chronicle to the person who is knighted.
In this way, it can be regarded as a small scale for thousands of years.
As for whether Liu Xie agreed or not......
This has never been in Li Zhi's consideration!
Because Liu Xie can't be independent at all, he must ask Dong Zhuo's consent for every word he says now!
Li Zhi felt that if Dong Zhuo didn't want to die, he would definitely agree to his request for knighthood!
Originally, he only thought that he would be a small official, but after hearing Li Zhi's words, he suddenly felt a hot current rushing through his whole body, which made him a little tearful!
Then he looked at Li Zhi with eyes full of tears, hugged his fists and saluted loudly: "Thank you for your great kindness, my subordinates will not forget!! ”
It's no wonder that he is so excited, because it is too difficult to improve his identity in these years.
Take Gao Ran as an example, when he was under Yuan Shao, although he commanded hundreds of thousands of troops, he looked very majestic.
But in the eyes of those families, he is just a reckless man!
Even Yuan Shao didn't take him too seriously, in Yuan Shao's eyes, those who were immoral and incompetent, but had a better background, were more noble than Gao Ranlai.
And the reason why this situation occurs is because Gao Ran's background is too low.
There are two ways to change the birth of the Great Han.
First, belong to a big family, be a cow and a horse for them, and rely on the resources of this family to slowly climb up, but it takes a lot of time.
And the reason why Gao Ran followed Yuan Shao is also for this reason.
Second, work hard to fight and be knighted on the battlefield!
Once he has a knighthood, his status will be instantly improved.
Other words. Li Zhi's fluttering words have made Gao Ranshou struggle for decades!
It's just that Li Zhi suddenly gave a little wine and was knighted, so he wouldn't take the title in his eyes, and other people value the title very much!
