Chapter 269: Recruiting Gao Cang
Gao Cang is confident that with his own strength, he only needs to fight for ten more rounds, and he can defeat Ji Ling, but even if he defeats Ji Ling, what benefits can he get?
According to his performance today, he can completely enter Yuan Shu's eyes, and since Yuan Shu will come up at this time to stop himself from continuing to fight with Ji Ling, it is enough to show that this battle between himself and Ji Ling has always been seen by Yuan Shu, with his own performance, if Yuan Shu does not pay attention to himself, it can only mean that Yuan Shu has no eyes, what qualifications does such a person have to be his own lord?
Since his performance was seen by Yuan Shu, it was better to sell Yuan Shu now, and he would not be good friends with Ji Ling, so he had no opinion on stopping Gao Cang.
Seeing Gao Cang's knowledge of current affairs, Yuan Shu also smiled. A top master certainly makes Yuan Shu's eyes hot, but if this master does not follow the law and does not know the current affairs, then Yuan Shu will also have a headache. But now it seems that Gao Cang is not a "thorn". This is undoubtedly good news, which means that Gao Cang will get along very well with his colleagues in the future.
Yuan Shu walked in front of Gao Cang at this moment, although Yuan Shu was a little thin compared to Gao Cang's burly body, but now he held Yuzhou and Nanyang. Yuan Shu's momentum in Xiangyang City and other places was not weaker than Gao Cang's, and it was even far more intimidating than Gao Cang.
"Gao Cang, are you willing to serve under me?" Yuan Shu said lightly.
In the face of Yuan Shu's solicitation, Gao Cang's face showed joy, he came to Pingyu City to board the golden platform this time to take refuge in Yuan Shu, since Yuan Shu took the initiative to extend an olive branch to himself, how could Gao Cang have a reason to refuse.
"Gao Cang is willing to saddle the horse before and after the main father, and fight on the battlefield."
Gao Cang immediately made a courtier salute to Yuan Shu and expressed his attitude.
Yuan Shu saw that Gao Cang had made a choice, and he also smiled, and then said: "Gao Cang, your strength is extraordinary, I will give you the position of captain, are you willing?" ”
"Captain?" Gao Cang showed an incredible look on his face, looking at Yuan Shu, as if he didn't believe that he would be so valued by Yuan Shu, after all, this captain is not a low-level official now, but a proper high-ranking official. Yuan Shu's command now except for Lu Bu, the lieutenant general, the rest of the highest military attachés are school captains, and there are no more than ten people.
"Why, you don't want to?" Yuan Shu saw Gao Cang's expression, and asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your love!" At this moment, Gao Cang was sure that Yuan Shu was not joking, and hurriedly thanked him again. As soon as he came, he sat in the high position of captain, even Gao Cang was a little disbelieving, but this also strengthened his loyalty to Yuan Shu.
Death for a confidant!
Yuan Shu was able to attach so much importance to Gao Cang, and as soon as he came, he awarded Gao Cang the high position of lieutenant, and Gao Cang did not mind dedicating his strength to Yuan Shu.
Compared with the literati, martial artists like Gao Cang think about fewer things, they don't care about what Han dynasty is and what national thieves, what they care about is who values them, who can let them show what they have learned and leave their names in history. And Yuan Shu, now in Gao Cang's opinion, is a qualified lord, enough for Gao Cang to serve and die.
Yuan Shu looked at Gao Cang, smiled, and said: "Today, Liang Dao and Yuan Fei are two people to vote, it is really my Yuan Shu's luck, today I set up a reception banquet in the mansion to wash the dust for the two of them, how about it?" ”
Gao Cang naturally has no opinion on this, and Jia Kui also knows that Yuan Shu wants to introduce himself and Gao Cang to the civil and military forces under Yuan Shu, and get acquainted with each other first, so that he can be more comfortable in his future work, and Jia Kui will not object to such a scene.
And that night, another banquet was held in the Hou General's Mansion where Yuan Shu was, and this banquet also gathered most of the civil and military forces under Yuan Shu's command, but Yuan Yao clearly discovered a problem, that is, no one from Lu Bu's family seemed to come, but I don't know if Yuan Shu didn't send someone to inform Lu Bu or if Lu Bu deliberately didn't come.
However, Yuan Yao didn't care too much about this, maybe Yuan Shu would have a lot of tolerance for Lu Bu when his strength was weak, but as Yuan Shu's strength increased, the gap between Yuan Shu and Lu Bu would become bigger and bigger, because in Yuan Shu's heart, Lu Bu was no longer irreplaceable.
Yuan Yao didn't have the luxury of expecting that the current Lu Bu would return to Yuan Shu, it was impossible, if he wanted to really subdue Lu Bu, he could only convince Lu Bu after defeating Lu Bu on the battlefield with dignity, if he couldn't do this, he couldn't make Lu Bu surrender.
The reason why Lu Bu came to Yuan Shu after being driven out of Luoyang was because Yuan Shu was the most powerful, and on the other hand, because Yuzhou and Chang'an were not far apart, and the road was relatively easy to walk. But if you want to say that Lu Bu came to Yuan Shu because he was interested in Yuan Shu, then don't talk about Yuan Yao, even Yuan Shu knew that this was an impossible thing.
What kind of person is Lu Bu, that is a veritable number one military general in the world, with unparalleled strength, and immediately even Wang Yue, Tong Yuan and others, who have been famous for a long time, dare not say that they can defeat Lu Bu in a one-on-one battle. In this era, Lu Bu has stood at the pinnacle of martial arts, and Lu Bu's strength is not stagnant, but constantly improving, if there is anyone who has the most hope of breaking through the Condensation Gang Realm and stepping into the Xuan Transformation Realm today, it is Lu Bu.
Of course, in addition to Lu Bu, other people are also possible, but relatively speaking, Lu Bu's hope is the greatest.
Yuan Yao knew that it was a matter of time before Lu Bu and Yuan Shu fell out, if they wanted to really subdue Lu Bu, it would be impossible this time, and only by defeating Lu Bu on the battlefield in the future would it be so possible.
Of course, if it weren't for the fact that there was no absolute certainty of solving Lu Bu, whether it was Yuan Shu or Yuan Yao, would attack Lu Bu, and such a high-level combat power that did not belong to him would not be a good thing under his nose.
Yuan Yao knew that sooner or later Lu Bu would defect and change to another place, but Yuan Yao also knew that with Lu Bu's character, there was no chance of winning that position in today's world, even if he had unparalleled combat power in the world. And when Lu Bu continued to hit a wall in the competition with the princes of the world, it was the best time to subdue Lu Bu, and if Lu Bu could be subdued at that time, it would inevitably make Lu Bu lose his ambition to be the master, and only the heart of a military general on the battlefield remained.
However, this matter is still a little early for Yuan Yao, and the current Yuan Yao is not qualified to talk about the matter of subduing Lu Bu.
