Although Gu Hui, Zhang Yun and others were not as anxious as Lu Kang, they also looked at each other. They didn't expect Sun Ce to be so ridiculous that he actually put Shen You, who had no combat experience at all, in charge of the war. Isn't this a joke, not only about Sun Ce's own future, but also about the future of several of them. Sun Ce was defeated, and he had to withdraw, rest for a while, replenish his troops, and make a comeback. But what should they do, Xu Gong will definitely clean them up.

In the face of Lu Kang's anxiety and the doubts of Gu Hui and others, Sun Ce was not angry at all. He knew that if he cared, he would be chaotic, Lu Kang really thought about him and didn't want him to be frustrated, otherwise he wouldn't have risked being retaliated by Xu Gong to go out of the city to cheer. He got up and walked to Lu Kang's side, took Lu Kang's arm with one hand, and gently pressed Lu Kang's shoulder with the other, motioning for him to sit down and be restless.

Lu Kang breathed a sigh of relief, almost begging Sun Ce. "General, this matter is really not a child's play, you better go and command the war first. Although Shen You is smart, he has no combat experience after all, if there is an accident and he can't respond to the situation, what should he do? ”

Shen Heng echoed. Among the people present, he was the most opposed to Sun Ce doing this. In case of defeat, wouldn't this responsibility become Shen You's?

"Don't worry, Lu Gong, I know it in my heart."

Lu Kang's eyes were red. "I can't let go of my heart, how can you reassure me?"

Sun Ce blinked, looked around, and said unhurriedly: "As far as you know, does Xu Gong have the experience of commanding thousands of men and horses to fight?" ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, looked at each other, and their originally nervous expressions relaxed. As far as they knew, Xu Gong had been the lieutenant of Wu County for several years, but there had been no war in Wu County in the past few years, and Xu Gong had no combat experience at all, and he had not even cleared up the thieves and bandits. Ordinary people don't know, they know very well, the thieves with a little strength are all related to the family, and no one can move Xu Gong. The thieves without the support of the family were vulnerable, and as long as Xu Gong led his troops out of the city, they fled in despair.

In other words, Xu Gong had no real combat experience and was no stronger than Shen You.

"You know that a few days ago, our army was conducting a drill in Tongguan Mountain, and at that time Shen You had already tried to command the army, and it was indeed a little rusty at first, but the progress was very fast." Sun Ce turned to Shen Heng and gave a thumbs up. "Zi is a genius, you should have faith in him."

Shen Heng was embarrassed and didn't know whether to echo Sun Ce or refute. Even if Shen You is a genius, even if Shen You is progressing very fast, he still has no actual combat experience after all. To command such an important battle at once, of course, it is good to win, but what if you lose?

"Rest assured, Shen Zi is a genius who can command tens of thousands of troops to fight, and it is not a problem to command thousands of men and horses, and Xu Gong is not his opponent. You hope for victory, and so do I, who will only be more desperate than you, so how can I joke with my future. ”

Seeing that Sun Ce said sincerely, Lu Kang also loosened a little. "This ...... Can it really work? ”

"Lu Gong can sit quietly." Sun Ce raised his finger and pointed to the sky, confident and confident. "Before noon, there will be good news. The princes still hurry up and discuss the right matter, the war is over, the battlefield must be cleaned up, the prisoners will be counted, and the city will be taken over, and there will be a big mess to deal with, so I will not be so idle. ”

Sun Ce said easily, although Lu Kang and the others no longer urged Sun Ce to command the battle, they were not in the mood to negotiate, their attention was all attracted by the war not far away, how could they have the heart to talk about cooperation. Sun Ce said anything, they nodded, and responded indiscriminately, several pairs of eyes anxiously looking at the slope, both wanting to have news and fearing that news would come.

Among Lu Kang and the other six people, only Lu Kang himself has experience in commanding battles, and the others are either cloth clothes or scholars, and most of their experience in war comes from books or rumors, and rarely practice.

Seeing this, Sun Ce was not in a hurry, and slowly tasted the tea, admiring the expressions of Lu Kang and the others.

Yang Xiu came over. "General, when was this decided?"

"Yesterday, you counted the grain and grass in the baggage camp, and you were very busy, so I didn't call you."

"General, I can understand that you have expressed your trust in Wu Jun Xiangxian, but is it too risky to do so?"

Sun Ce turned his head and glanced at Yang Xiu, thinking for a moment. "Dezu, you are in charge of the affairs of the baggage camp, have I interfered?"

"Thanks to the general's trust, Xiu is grateful. But it's different......"

"How is it different?" Sun Ce raised his hand and motioned for Yang Xiu to stop talking. Maybe it's because of different identities, maybe it's different interests, Yang Xiu has no interest in the war, and he won't participate in the military meeting if he can, he doesn't know how much preparation they have made for this war. In order to let the people of Wu County see his sincerity, in order to let the people of Wu County see his strength, he not only made in-depth communication with Guo Jia to ensure that Guo Jia could cooperate with Shen You and do a good job of auxiliary work, but also communicated with the captains of each battalion to obtain their support. Unless Xu Gong is a famous general who is not born in the world, unless there is a major change, no matter who commands this formation, as long as it does not mess around, there will be no problems, the difference is only in the big victory or the small victory, and the casualties are large or small.

Lu Kang and others can't understand it, that's right, that's what he wants. Yang Xiu couldn't understand it, and it wasn't surprising that he could take the initiative to remind him and explain that he still supported him and didn't want him to be frustrated, but now was not the time to explain in detail.

Since you want to act, you naturally have to have more fun. The more they can't understand it now, the more impressed they will be when the results come out. His territory is getting bigger and bigger, and he needs more people who can take charge of himself, Shen You has such ability and loyalty, of course he has to give him a chance. But Shen You is too young, if he doesn't win by surprise and becomes famous in a fight, it will be difficult for him to convince the public. With such a legendary story, no matter what position Shen You holds in the future, he will not encounter too many obstacles.

The real Mingjun lies in being able to use people, not how much he can fight. Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu can also fight, Kunyang defeated more than 400,000 Xinmang troops with 3,000 people in the first battle, but he can sit in the world because he has 28 generals of Yuntai, not his personal ability to use troops. Xiang Yu's personal ability is extremely strong, and Peng Cheng defeated the coalition army of 560,000 with 30,000 people in the first battle, what was the result? He was too capable, so he didn't need Han Xin, forcing Han Xin to work for Liu Bang. In the next battle, it was Han Xin who commanded the army to ambush on all sides, forcing Xiang Yu Wujiang to kill himself.

He is ambitious in the world and does not want to be a personal hero like Xiang Yu. He doesn't have Yuan Shao's appeal, so he can only cultivate talents by himself. Time is not waiting, if one is one, one will be launched, let them get ahead and be independent, so that they can sit in the center and face off against Yuan Shao.

is not in his position, he is not in his government, Yang Xiuxin is in the imperial court, so he naturally can't understand his approach.
