Chapter 275: The New Leader
Those who were about to make a gesture were instantly stunned in place, and their eyes at Wen Zhili changed from admiration to awe.
Looking at the people who had quieted down, he smiled slightly and said, "Do you not want to lead the troops or don't want to defend your homeland?" If you have this time to stare at me, you should be able to sift through a group of people. ”
When the crowd heard him say this, they hurriedly began to discuss who would lead the troops appropriately. They are now respectful and afraid of Wen Zhili in their hearts, and naturally they dare not disobey his will.
In the heated discussion, those people also seemed to have forgotten the recently deceased Wang Shoucai. After all, how he had bullied them, everyone knew very well in their hearts. Although he was a little surprised by his death, it can also be said to be very happy.
When everyone was discussing, Wen Zhili asked Wang Shoucai to bury him. Looking at the enthusiastic discussion, he shook his head and said to the people next to him: "I didn't want to see blood the first time we met, but I still couldn't hold back." ”
The corners of the subordinates' mouths twitched, he had been a guard of the Wen family for so many years, and he naturally knew that Wen Zhili's temperament was a little uncertain, and it was all about his mood. And he's the best at playing with people's hearts.,Always can easily guess what others think.。 With such abilities, he is always a little intimidating.
"The subordinates feel that the master is doing the right thing, and it is really useless to keep this kind of person." The man's tone was respectful.
Wen Zhili looked at him and smiled slightly: "Ji Fang, you are afraid of me." ”
Ji Fang was told by Wen Zhili that he didn't feel embarrassed about the central matter. He has been a Wen family guard for so many years, and he is responsible for the daily training of the Wen family guard, if he can't cope with this, he won't be able to sit in this position now.
He said respectfully: "Naturally, I am afraid, if I don't even have the fear of the master, I am not worthy of doing things under the master." ”
"You're a brainer." Wen Zhili's voice was gentle, but there was no trace of warmth.
"Is there a favorite candidate?" Ji Fang saw that Wen Zhili had been staring at a person, so he asked.
Wen Zhili smiled slightly: "This person is generous between talking and laughing, and he is very popular, and those people's eyes are looking at him when he speaks." Martial arts are average, if he is trained strictly, he will become a general. ”
"How can martial arts lead troops to war?" Ji Fang was a little hesitant.
Wen Zhili has always been patient, and slowly explained: "A general must not only be alone, but must judge the situation and make the best decision for his own soldiers." Hurting people must first punish the heart, and likewise those who make people descend must also win the hearts of the people first. Martial arts can be cultivated, but the ability to subdue people's hearts and sincerity are innate. ”
After listening to Wen Zhili's explanation, Ji Fang admired him even more in his heart. He thought that Wen Zhili only knew the power tricks of officialdom, but he never thought that he also knew how to lead troops to fight.
As if seeing Ji Fang's surprise, Wen Zhili said softly: "Isn't it the same reason to manage you people as managing an army?" ”
"Master, Ji Fang has benefited a lot today." Ji Fang suddenly clasped his fists at Wen Zhili on the horse and saluted.
"I didn't teach you anything, you've done a good job all these years." Wen Zhili's expression was calm, and the crowd over there had quieted down. They nominated two young men to come out, one of whom was the one Wen Zhili had just taken a fancy to.
The person who was favored by Wen Zhili was named Sheng Changlin, and the other was Xiang Mutian, who was the strongest martial artist in this group. Wen Zhili seemed to be relatively satisfied with the people they chose, and Yoyo said, "These two people were chosen by you, and you must obey their orders. ”
The people knew that they had chosen it, and they were naturally willing to listen to them.
Wen Zhili looked at everyone's high morale, and asked with a smile: "Which of you two is more familiar with water?" ”
Xiang Mutian stood up and said, "Lord Hui, I, Xiang Mutian, grew up by the sea, and I am very confident in swimming. ”
"Okay." Wen Zhili's voice was still gentle, "Then how about I order you to bring 3,000 elite soldiers and 2,000 soldiers who are proficient in water to support Lord Liu in Shu immediately?" ”
"Thank you, my lord, the villain will definitely live up to his mission!" Xiang Mutian said and bowed deeply to Wen Zhili.
Wen Zhili looked at him, and only felt that this person was a strong character. It is indeed suitable for marching and fighting, but in the future, this strong character may suffer a loss. However, he is not a nosy person, and he is not prepared to give a warning.
He looked at Sheng Changlin again and said, "You will take the remaining three thousand soldiers to defend Yuanzhou City." ”
Sheng Changlin was not unhappy because he couldn't go to the front line, he solemnly saluted Wen Zhili.
"Ji Fang, find a reliable person and immediately take three thousand Wen family guards to Shu with Xiang Mutian to support Lord Liu. Let these 3,000 guards be unified under the command of Yuan Xi after they arrive in Shudi, and you will stay in Yuanzhou with me with the rest of the soldiers. After Wen Zhili saw Ji Fang go to make arrangements, he looked at Xiang Mutian and Sheng Changlin in front of him.
"Xiang Mutian, if Lord Liu asks about your identity, you can just tell him the truth about this matter. He'll know how to arrange it. After speaking, he looked at Sheng Changlin again, "As for you, you will take the soldiers to defend the city in a while, and you must not slack off in the slightest." ”
Ji Fang had already arranged it at this time, and after he finished saluting Wen Zhili, Wen Zhili nodded and turned around and rode away. Ji Fang and some Wen family guards also left.
Watching Wen Zhili leave, Sheng Changlin said to Xiang Mutian to take care. Xiang Mutian smiled confidently and said: "It's finally time to go into battle to kill the enemy, I swear to defend this homeland to the death!" ”
His words were very inspiring, and the five thousand soldiers felt that their spirits were uplifted. Xiang Mutian rode on his horse, took his spear, said goodbye to Sheng Changlin and the others, and left with his troops.
Naturally, the Wen guards did not go with them, after all, each was his master.
Sheng Changlin looked at the person who had been silent on the side and said, "Old Wang, Brother Xiang can come back safely!" I still want him to marry my sister! Although he always refuses, my sister doesn't mean it either, alas! ”
Lao Wang glanced at him and said, "Then you will simply die of this heart." ”
"But that lord just now was so majestic, you see his posture, I almost knelt for him. If only I could become this kind of person one day, then my sister would be able to live a good life. Sheng Changlin patted Lao Wang's shoulder.
Lao Wang shook his head and said, "I advise you to die of this heart, that adult and we are not from the same world." You are not destined to be that kind of person, because his nobility is innate. ”
