No. 490 Liu Bei's whimsical suggestion
Xu Shu then asked: "Jin Hou, you also said just now, Yu Ban has rushed to Donghai County with his troops, and it is the county lieutenant Mi Fang who is defending the border of Donghai County, and with his ability, he may not be able to deal with Yu Ban." Not only that, if the lord and I lead troops to rescue Jiujiang County, in case Cao Cao notices this and suddenly leads his troops to storm the defensive circle of Pi State, with the power of the prince, he may not be able to stop the army of Cao thieves for too long.
After all this time, you must have learned that there has been a lack of capable generals under the lord. So, who do you think can take over the position of Yide, the captain of the firefight, at this time? ”
"This ......!" When Jin Hou heard this, he was a little troubled. At this time, he knew very well in his heart that Xu Junshi wanted him to take over Zhang Fei's task in front of everyone. However, Jin Hou is more aware of his own advantages and disadvantages, no, it should be said that Jin Jue has commented on his advantages and disadvantages, and he himself through his own experience since joining the army, he recognizes Gongzi's judgment very much in his heart.
Jin Hou himself is good at attacking, but not good at defense, and Jin Jue once said that among the generals under Cao Cao, in fact, the most difficult to deal with is Yu Ban, not other generals.
Why is that?
Through historical records, it can be seen that among Cao Cao's relatives and generals, five tiger generals, and other generals, although Yu Ban has made countless military exploits, it seems that there is no great military exploits, like Zhang Liao and Xu Huang later, which can be described as great military achievements. But why did Jin Jue say that Yu Ban was the most difficult?
The reason is that Yu Ban is extremely strict in governing the army, a bit like Cheng Buzhi during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, such a person leads the army, and few people can find any flaws in him.
Tai Shi Gong commented that such a general has no great merit or great fault. Yu Ban just lost some luck.
Flooding the Seventh Army is not a crime of war.
Yu Ban is just a little weaker, after all, when he is really facing life and death, throughout ancient and modern history, how many people can be like Pound, who would rather die than give in?
Thinking of this, Jin Hou replied thoughtfully: "My lord, Xu Junshi." Jin Gongzi once commented that in the Cao thief army, in fact, Yu Ban is the most difficult to deal with. The villain's characteristic of leading troops is that he is good at defending but not good at defending, so during the time that General Yide is away, the villain can lead troops to attack on the flanks of the forbidden department, so that he cannot concentrate on attacking the defense line of Donghai County with all his strength.
And the lord must give General Yide a death order, once the Lejin Department is resolved, he must immediately return to the current station. With the ability of a villain, it is impossible to resist the attack of the main force of the Cao thief. ”
"Oh! You're so good at attacking! Xu Shu was somewhat surprised after listening to Jin Hou's answer, and then, he and Liu Bei glanced at each other, and gently shook the letter in his hand, which was the urgent document written by Jin Jue to Liu Bei, and Liu Bei nodded without hesitation.
Xu Shu immediately understood, and directly handed over the letter in his hand to Jin Hou, and instructed: "Jin Hou, you take a look at the content of this letter first!" ”
"No!" Jin Hou agreed, and respectfully accepted the letter.
As soon as he saw the words on the letter, Jin Hou's eyes couldn't help but shed tears, and the people in the council hall who noticed this small detail couldn't help but be moved.
From this point, everyone can see that this Jin Hou is an extremely affectionate child, even if Jin Jue drives him away, he has now become Liu Bei's subordinate, and he still cares about the old master in his heart.
In this regard, Liu Bei not only did not feel blamed, but was a little happy. Such a person who values love and righteousness, and is still so young, is very rare for Liu Bei now.
After reading the letter, Jin Hou, who had finally adjusted his emotions, pondered for about a quarter of an hour before he replied very solemnly: "My lord, Xu Junshi, I guess that you must want to transfer General Jin Yun back and let him command him to attack Taishan County. After all, the Sun brothers in the Taishan tribes have gone too far this time, and if they don't teach them a lesson, Zang Ba will really think that the lord is good to bully.
Then, the villain is brave, and according to the villain's suggestion, I still lead the troops to contain the ban first. When General Yide returns to his original position with his troops, the villain will immediately withdraw his troops. At the same time as General Jin Yun's command department attacked Taishan County, the villain would also attack at the same time...... Lu country! ”
After speaking, Jin Hou didn't say anything more, just stared at Xu Shu's eyes with those small eyes.
As soon as Jin Hou finished speaking, "Hahaha! Liu Bei immediately stood up suddenly, laughed loudly three times, and gave Jin Hou a very big promise in public, saying, "That's good! Lone agreed. The affairs of the East China Sea will be handed over to you first, as for the future, if you can capture the Lu State, Lone will be appointed as the general of Yamen, the Prime Minister of the Lu State, if you kid has the ability to take Yuzhou or Yanzhou, Lone will appoint you as the assassin of the state. How is it? ”
"Thank you for being so kind. The villain has a few catties and a few taels, the kid just knows, all take Yanzhou or Yuzhou, the villain has never thought about it. After Liu Bei finished speaking, Jin Hou immediately knelt in front of Liu Bei, kowtowed three times, and replied humbly.
But then, he made a very bold request, saying, "However, since you have mentioned it, the villain will boldly plead for it." If the villain can occupy more counties controlled by the Cao thief, the villain implores the lord to temporarily hand over the appointment of the taishou and county orders of these counties to the villain. ”
"Bold, you ......" Xu Shu heard this, and just wanted to reproach Jin Hou.
But he didn't want to, after Liu Bei heard this, he waved his hand at Xu Shu, agreed to Jin Hou's request, and said, "Yuan Zhi, you don't have to be like this." The territory was won by him, and whether he can hold it or not depends on his own ability. So what about giving him the right to appoint? However, since this kid brought up this matter. Lone thought of a way.
Yuan Zhi, Jin Hou, since Jin Yun's surname is Jin, and you are also surnamed Jin, it is better for you to declare that you are the cousins of Jin Jue's kid. Although outsiders know that Lone and Jin Jue have a good relationship, after all, there are two forces. You killed the Sun brothers, and Zang Ba and the others can't blame Lone. ”
After Liu Bei said this, everyone present was a little stunned, but they didn't speak, including Xu Shu.
For Liu Bei's suggestions in these words, Jin Hou thought more than others, in fact, Liu Bei's words also implied another meaning - if Jin Hou and Jin Yun occupied Taishan County and Lu State respectively, and even more Yanzhou, and Wei Yan and others were monopolizing the entire Runan County, then Jin Jue, a great enemy who had a common enmity with Cao Cao, would infiltrate into the territory controlled by Cao Cao thousands of miles away.
