Chapter 792: Liu Beijun's First Battle in Linyuan (continued)
Huo Jun looked at the retreating soldier Liu Bei, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
To be honest, don't look at Liu Bei with people to capture Wuling, and it is just outside Linyuan City. But for Huo Jun, these are not only not bad things, but they are still good things. After all, he had always been stationed in Linyuan City in Wuling, so there was no war at all, which made Huo Jun very bored and felt particularly boring. But now it's okay, at least he won't feel lonely and bored, because he can fight with Liu Bei's soldiers every day, isn't this better than anything else.
After Huo Jun instructed the soldiers, he went down to the city and came to the Taishou Mansion. After Liu Cong and Cai Mao saw him, Liu Cong gave Huo Jun a fierce compliment, anyway, he didn't need money or anything, he naturally wouldn't be stingy with these things. As for Cai Mao, it was even more exaggerated for Huo Jun.
To be honest, he had heard of Huo Jun a long time ago, but he really didn't know much about him. So today, when I heard what the soldiers said about the battle situation, Liu Beijun was beaten, although it was not a fart, but it really gave them no temper. Cai Mao regretted this, but today he couldn't watch the battle in the city, or he would have been able to see how Liu Bei's soldiers were deflated.
Because Cai Mao has been planted with Liu Bei several times, he feels that he must regain his confidence, otherwise he will definitely have no confidence in the face of Liu Xuande in the future. So in order to avoid this, he felt that it was necessary to go to the city next time to watch the battle, but he didn't know if Huo Jun would be able to let him.
But fortunately, as soon as Cai Mao and Huo Jun said this, Huo Jun thought about it for a while, and then he nodded and agreed. In any case, Cai Mao is bigger than his official position and greater power than him. And the power in Jingzhou can be said to be deep-rooted, and what about himself. So Cai Mao just said that he wanted to go to the city to watch the battle, and the rest, as long as he didn't affect himself and didn't make trouble for himself, then everything was fine, after all, he couldn't afford to offend him.
So even if Huo Jun actually didn't want Cai Mao to go to the city, he still compromised in the end. After all, "people are under the roof and have to bow their heads"! ——
Zhou Cang, Pei Yuanshao and others returned to Liu Bei's Chinese army tent, and after Liu Bei saw that everyone was seated, he said: "Zhou Cang." Today's attack on Linyuan City, you are a little impatient! ”
When Zhou Cang heard this, he hurriedly hugged his fists. "My lord is right. The subordinates are indeed a little anxious, please forgive me! ”
These words actually came out of the mouth of a big old man, and if people who don't know the Tao will indeed be a little surprised.
Liu Bei nodded and said again: "The so-called yes." 'Knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and good is great'. Zhou Cang can recognize your mistakes and correct them, which is better than anything else. It's not in vain that I said you once! ”
"Yes! The subordinates remember the words of the lord and dare not forget! ”
Liu Bei nodded again, what he appreciated more was not Zhou Cang's martial arts skills, but his attitude. Look at what he preached to him today, he can listen to what he says sincerely and honestly, this is actually rare, at least not everyone can do it, but he Zhou Cang did it, and he did it very well. At least I believe that after today, if you attack Yuancheng again, Zhou Cang will definitely not be as impatient as today, this is really "teachable", and Liu Bei is very pleased with this-
After finishing talking about Zhou Cang, Liu Bei didn't say Pei Yuanshao, after all, Pei Yuanshao behaved well today. At least Liu Bei knew that he didn't have much experience, so although the pressure was not small, he still showed his strength to Huo Jun, and he didn't make a mistake like Zhou Cang in a hurry, so Pei Yuanshao was generally good.
At this time, Liu Bei looked at Wen Ping, who had just defected to him, and said, "Zhongye, I don't know how much you know about this Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao?" ”
When Wen Ping heard this, he said that he was not familiar with him, and asked me, who would I ask.
Not familiar enough, after Wen Ping listened to his lord's question, he still told Liu Bei and everyone what he knew. After all, Wen Ping, like Huo Jun, both belong to the generals of the Jingzhou Army. If it's average, it's not famous, then forget it. But whether it is his Wenpin or Huo Jun, he has some reputation, and he is also the number one person in the Jingzhou Army, so even if Wenpin is not familiar with him, he still knows some things about him.
And after Liu Bei and other important people listened to what Wen Ping said, they can be regarded as having another understanding of Huo Jun, although this understanding is not very understanding, but in short, it is better than nothing, this is certain, definite-
After listening to what Wen Ping said, Liu Bei said: "If it weren't for what Zhongye said, we still don't know Huo Zhongmiao and his people!" ”
Wen Ping smiled, "Lord, Huo Zhongmiao is definitely the general who defends the city in the Jingzhou army, if he says that he is the second, absolutely no one dares to call him the first!" ”
Everyone seems to have known that Wen Ping can have this evaluation, although they think this is not an exaggeration, but in Liu Bei's opinion, Wen Ping should be right. Huo Jun Huo Zhongmiao is definitely the first general of the Jingzhou Army to defend the city, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. If such a person can be used for himself, then won't his own strength increase again?
Although Liu Bei thinks that this matter may be difficult, it doesn't mean that it is impossible, so, again, as long as there is hope, it is better than no hope, isn't it.
Thinking of this, Liu Bei asked, "I wonder if his people can be used by our army?" ”
Wen Ping shook his head when he heard this, and said in his heart that although Huo Jun and his people were not diehards, they would definitely not surrender easily, but he still said: "Lord, Huo Zhong and his people will not surrender easily, but after our army breaks through Linyuan City, if they can capture them alive, their subordinates are willing to persuade them in person!" ”
After Liu Bei listened to Wen Ping's words, he was Ha Lu Ha Da Lang laughed, you see how Wen Ping didn't take refuge in himself before, but Ruina looked at it again, he took the initiative to persuade talents for himself. This change is indeed not small, and it is really "this time, that time", Liu Bei also has to sigh about this, isn't that the case.
"Well, if this is the case, then there will still be a lot of help! Hahaha! ”
Wen Ping hurriedly said, "Worrying about the Lord is what subordinates should do!" ”
Liu Bei nodded, agreed, and said in his heart, people, they will always change, look at Wenpin, how many can be exceptions, put this almost everyone is like this, it's different, after all, it can only be a very few! ——
At this time, Wen Ping suddenly felt that his lord seemed to be very confident in being able to break Linyuan City? Anyway, that's how he feels, if his lord can say such a thing, let himself persuade Huo Zhongmiao and his people later, doesn't that mean that the city can be breached.
In fact, it's not just Wenpin, but other people think the same way. In fact, Liu Bei, he just wants to give everyone confidence, after all, as the lord, it is impossible for him to be sad and sad because a city is difficult to capture. So of course he won't be like that, he can only give everyone ease, not pressure them.
At this time, Liu Bei looked at Xu Shu, "I don't know what Yuan Zhike's opinion is?" ”
When Xu Shu heard this, he smiled bitterly twice in his heart, and said in his heart that the lord asked him what his opinion was, and he didn't just ask himself if there was any good way to break this Linyuan City. But he really didn't expect anything, and Huo Zhongmiao and his people were the generals who defended the city, so they were going to have a tough battle here.
"This, back to the lord, never! However, his subordinates also think that Linyuan City will be in the pocket of our army sooner or later!! ”
Although there was no good way for Xu Shu, Liu Bei was a little disappointed. But to be honest, looking at Xu Shu's attitude, he felt that he was asking the right person. If you want to say that what you need most now, isn't it Xu Shu's words and expressions.
People are never afraid of failure, or they all say, "victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers", in fact, this is very normal. But I'm afraid that you don't have any confidence, and you haven't fought with anyone yet, you already think that you can't win, so so, it's really not advisable, at least Liu Bei knows it, so it definitely won't work.
But now, it's actually pretty good. Zhou Cang and Pei Yuanshao, as the parties concerned, although it can be seen at this time that they are indeed depressed and unwilling, but they have definitely not lost their fighting spirit and confidence. So Liu Bei thinks that this is good, very good. And this is what I want, and it seems that everyone on my side is not bad.
As for Xu Shu's words, in fact, this was still expected by Liu Bei, so the disappointment, it was just a flash.
At this time, he said to everyone, "Everyone, tomorrow, our army will continue to attack Linyuan, and we will meet him Huo Zhongmiao for a while!" ”
"No!"
Everyone shouted in unison, and Liu Bei nodded, he was indeed satisfied with the performance of his subordinates. (To be continued......)
