When Lu Fan saw Corporal Han Xuanlixian, he went to the mansion with him. Looking around the house, he found that Han Xuan was very frugal, and there were no other things in the house except for some necessities of life.

Han Xuan asked Lu Fan to sit on the chair, and Lu Fan thanked him and said: "The posture of Corporal General Lixian is admirable, and the Zhaoxian Pavilion is also very useful. Why does the general emphasize military force over Wenye? ”

Han Xuan was puzzled: "Why did Mr. say this?" There is also a literary examination in the recruitment hall. ”

Lu Fan waved his hand and said: "In today's troubled times, all talented people have strategies to help the world and do not reveal them. ”

Han Xuan thought about it carefully, Lu Fan reminded him that he only valued the written test according to the model of later generations. This rigid way is to attract talents, but most of them are mechanical mediocrity.

I didn't expect this Lu Fan's thinking to be so advanced, and he really had a long-term vision. Han Xuan asked, "What can I do?" Please sir teach me. ”

Lu Fan said: "The Jiangdong clan is full of heroes and strong, and the general must use his reputation if he wants to build a hegemony in Jiangdong. Can the general know Jiangdong's 'Erzhang'? ”

Of course Han Xuan knew, but he still looked at what Lu Fan said first, and Lu Fan took on and said: "One person is Zhang Zhao Zibu, and the other is Zhang Hongzi Zigang." Both of them were well-known and respected by scholars. If the general gets these two people, why worry about the Shi clan not attached, then the big thing can be done. ”

It turned out to be a celebrity effect, after Han Xuan got Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, it would make the scholars think that Han Xuan was outstanding, and they would come here one after another. Han Xuan was overjoyed and said: "What Mr. Ziheng said is very true. I've heard the names of these two people for a long time, and I want to visit them early, can Mr. introduce them on my behalf? ”

Lu Fan said that he still had subordinates waiting for him to go back and settle down, but Han Xuan hurriedly stopped him and said, "My husband Guan has a strategy, why don't you stay and help me achieve a great cause?" ”

Lu Fan had no choice but to say bluntly: "Although the general is good at recruiting talents regardless of dignity or inferiority. However, the thieves of the river were illiterate, and they were a little brave and embarrassed. ”

Han Xuanxin said that you were robbed of the limelight by Jiang Qin and Zhoutai, this thing is unbalanced, Han Xuan smiled and said, "Why is the gentleman's strength so small?" Generals, those who charge into battle, behead and capture the flag are fierce generals; Those who command in battle and break the army and retreat from the enemy are wise generals; The one who strategizes and dispatches troops is a general, or a commander. These three have their own duties, and they cannot be compared! ”

Lu Fan's face was full of shame when he heard this, but he didn't expect Han Xuan to say that he was narrow-minded, and no one had ever said that about him. Hearing Han Xuan's discussion of generals, Lu Fan stopped, turned around and asked, "I don't know why the general is general?" ”

Han Xuan squinted his eyes and smiled: "I can use all three, I am the one who uses people." ”

Han Xuan didn't dare to say it too obviously, the person who employs people is the meaning of the lord, the lord can have no great talent, but he must be good at using talents.

Lu Fan bowed to Han Xuan and said: "The general's ambition Fan admires deeply, if he doesn't give up, he is willing to help the general dominate Jiangdong." ”

Han Xuan let out a long laugh and took Lu Fan's hand to eat together, Lu Fan should have decided to invest in himself, and he should also take a good look at him. In the next few days, Han Xuan ate with Lu Fan, and discussed big and small affairs with Lu Fan.

As soon as he came to Han Xuan's army, Han Xuan appointed him as the commander of Anhui City, Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai were only appointed as captains, and Lu Fan felt that he was deeply valued by Han Xuan, so he was willing to serve him and handed over more than 100 of his disciples to Han Xuan's command.

Under the introduction of Lu Fan, Han Xuan personally went to Zhang Zhao's mansion to invite him, and treated Zhang Zhao very politely. Han Xuan and Zhang Zhao went to the church to meet Zhang Zhao's mother, like a close friend of the same generation. Zhang Zhao was grateful for Han Xuan's eager gesture, so he agreed to help Han Xuan.

On this day, Han Xuanzheng and Zhang Zhao were discussing the strategy of taking Jiangdong, and Lu Fan hurriedly ran over and reported to Han Xuanyu: "Lord, Yuan Shu took Qiao Rui as the general and Sun Ce as the vanguard, and led 18,000 troops to kill Ben Anhui City. The front of Sun Ce is less than ten miles away from the city? ”

Han Xuan hurriedly stood up and said, "Beat the drums and gather the generals, follow me to meet the enemy." ”

Han Xuan didn't expect Sun Ce to come so quickly, Sun Ce was as young and promising as him, and Sun Ce had never suffered a major defeat so far. Han Xuan, Chen Wu, Huang Zhong, Zhang Zhao and others went up to the city tower to inspect, and saw a member of the army galloping with a spear and riding a yellow fat horse, and the word "Sun" was written on the big flag behind him, he should be Sun Ce.

Sun Ce raised his spear and pointed at the city tower and shouted: "Han Xuan, I have come to take Anhui City on behalf of Yuan's army, and I advise you to open the city and surrender as soon as possible, so as not to lose your lives." ”

Han Xuan shouted at Sun Ce: "The person who came is Brother Sun Bofu Xian? I am an old friend of your father, General Sun Wentai, and we used to crusade against Dong Zhuo together, why did you lead a large army to attack each other now? ”

Sun Ce heard Han Xuan talk about the past when he and Sun Jian fought side by side, and reined in his momentum and said to Han Xuan: "I will do what I am ordered to do, you and I will compete on the battlefield, and we will talk about the old things later." ”

Jiang Qin said to Han Xuan: "My lord, I and Youping have not made any military exploits under the new lord's account. Let's let the last general and others fight! ”

Han Xuan hesitated a little, Sun Ce's martial arts and bravery, he knew best, although Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's martial arts were not weak, but could they beat Sun Ce?

Lu Fan said to Han Xuan: "Lord, the enemy general's army has not yet arrived, and there are only a few thousand men and horses under the city. You can go into battle to frustrate the enemy's spirit. ”

Han Xuan asked Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin to lead 2,000 men and horses out of the city to fight Sun Ce, and Sun Ce really inherited the bravery of his father Sun Jian, and single-handedly rushed out of the battle to kill Jiang Qin.

Sun Ce went to sea with a dragon and shot at Jiang Qin's door. Jiang Qin hurriedly held it with an iron knife, and Sun Ce used his spear to press Jiang Qin, Jiang Qin gritted his teeth and pushed it up. Jiang Qin was shocked by Sun Ce's strength, Sun Ce was younger than him and had such martial arts, Jiang admired and had to turn his horse and flee back.

Sun Ce slapped his horse and waved his spear to chase after him, seeing that a shot was about to stab Jiang Qin in the back, his spear was stopped by another spear, and Zhou Tai saw that Jiang Qin was no match but Sun Ce came to help.

Although Zhou Tai's marksmanship has no omissions, Sun Ce's force is indeed domineering, and his marksmanship can always break through Zhou Tai's defense, and the so-called "one force will drop ten meetings" is exactly this reason. Zhou Tai and Sun Ce fought for thirty rounds and gradually became difficult to parry, and Jiang Qin rushed up with an iron sword after changing horses, and fought Sun Ce with Zhou Tai.

Sun Ce's general Huang Gai saw that Sun Ce was besieged, and he also waved an iron whip to help Sun Ce. Huang Gai's iron whip picked up Jiang Qin's iron knife and fought with Jiang Qin. After Zhou Tai lost his help, he fought with Sun Ce and had no help, so he had to lead the army to retreat towards the city.

Sun Ce's troops saw that Zhou Tai had withdrawn into the city and wanted to rush into the city gate, so they waved their troops and killed them. Han Xuan hurriedly ordered Huang Zhong, Chen Wu, and Lei Bo to lead the army to resist, and Huang Zhong danced the coiled dragon knife to stir up a riot in Sun Ce's army, and countless soldiers died under Huang Zhong's sword.

Seeing this, Sun Ce rode his horse towards Huang Zhong and stabbed Huang Zhong in the back with a shot. Huang Zhong sensed the murderous attack and hurriedly turned around, the coiling dragon knife blocked the shot stabbed by Sun Ce, Huang Zhong smiled and said to Sun Ce: "Young man, don't underestimate your opponent, if you don't understand the strength of your opponent, you will be in danger if you rashly attack without understanding the strength of your opponent." ”

Sun Ce hurriedly pulled out his spear, bypassed his left hand and stabbed at Huang Zhong, Huang Zhong was slightly stunned, so he had to use the third type of dragon sword technique to enter the abyss, and unload Sun Ce's spear.

Sun Ce was in a state of mind, and used all his strength to fight against Huang Zhong, the two of them killed in the crowd in the dark, Sun Ce gasped and looked at Huang Zhong and said: "Although the general is a lot older than me, his strength is not inferior to me, and I respect the general deeply." I want to inherit my father's inheritance and sweep Jiangdong, why don't the generals serve me and help me help the world together? ”

Huang Zhong politely declined: "General Sun's good intentions have been understood, I have met the Ming Lord, how can I abandon it?" You better lead the army to retreat, there is so-and-so, you can't take this city! ”

Sun Ce saw that Huang Zhong was loyal to Han Xuan, so he didn't say more, and pulled out the ancient ingot knife on his waist with his right hand and slashed at Huang Zhong. Huang Zhong had to resist for a while, and then most of the twelve moves of the Coiling Dragon Sword Technique were used.
