No. 241 Talent is not enough, cultivate it yourself

"Not bad! This is the son. Xiao Luotong, in the future, if you have the opportunity to meet him, you must learn a thing or two from him. Hearing Luo Tong talk about Jin Jue, Liu Bei replied gently, but he suddenly remembered one of Jin Jue's kid's vices, so he hurriedly added: "Of course, Xiao Luo Tong, you can't learn his style of life." ”

"Got it, Liu Yuanjun." Luo Tong nodded as if he didn't understand and replied.

It's just that the hardships of life soon made Luo Tong, who was only six years old, understand the meaning of Liu Bei's last sentence to him.

It turned out that Luo Tong's mother was a great beauty, and in history, Luo Tong took refuge with his family in Yuzhang, and his mother remarried Hua Xin, the so-called famous man and dragon leader who had not surrendered to Sun Ce at that time.

In this time and space, because Liu Bei protected the Luo family in advance, when Liu Bei returned to Xiapi, on the way, Guan Yu saw Luo Tong's mother, and he liked it at first sight. Soon, Luo Tong's mother remarried Guan Yu.

Today's Xiao Luo Tong doesn't know what is going to happen to him.

Originally, there was a more suitable candidate to be Liu Bei's heir, he was Liu Ji, Liu Xuan's eldest son.

Liu Ji was born in Guanghe in the seventh year and is thirteen years old this year, three years younger than Jin Jue.

However, after Liu Bei inspected it several times, he felt that this child was not very old, but he was too steady, lacking the spirituality of Luo Tong, in peacetime, he was a good choice, but in today's troubled times, Liu Ji is like Liu Biao, the assassin of Jingzhou, he can only keep it, but he does not have much ability to help Liu Bei in terms of making contributions.

"Alas......!" Looking at the smart and well-behaved Xiao Luo Tong, Liu Bei nodded with satisfaction, and couldn't help but think of Liu Ji in his heart, remembered his life experience, and couldn't help but sigh.

Suddenly, Liu Bei remembered something from this, so he asked Lu Su: "Zijing, can the people you sent to Wu County contact that family?" ”

At this time, when Liu Bei said this, he actually started a dumb riddle, and among the people present, but then the parties Lu Su and Xu Shu understood which family Liu Bei was asking?

Liu Bei was referring to the Lu family, a local family in Wu County.

Lu Kang defended Lujiang County, and before the city was broken, he sent people to send all the family members who were attached to him back to his hometown of Wu County, Wu County, in advance, including Lu Xun, who was the youngest of the four virtuous ministers of Eastern Wu and was second only to Zhou Yu in merit.

At the beginning, when Jin Jue left Xuzhou, he also mentioned the Lu family in Wu County to Liu Bei, and in his mouth, Lu Kang's children and nephews were like the Yingchuan Xun family, all of them were geniuses.

In fact, this is indeed the case, and even Lu Kang's nephews have achieved more than Xun Yu's nephews.

Liu Bei was very enthusiastic when he heard it, and furthermore, after Lu Kang's death, Sun Ce had to pay six or seven percent of the responsibility, and after Sun Ce captured Wu County, the position and status of the Lu family were a little embarrassing.

Fortunately, Lu Kang's eldest son died early, and his second son Lu Ji had the reputation of Lu Lang Huaitang, plus he was still young, so he couldn't pose any threat to Sun Ce at all, so Sun Ce didn't care about his own enmity with the Lu family.

In the second year of Jian'an, Lu Ji was just nine years old.

Liu Bei always kept this matter in mind, and he often asked people to write letters to secretly contact the Lu family, but he never got any letters from anyone in the Lu family who rejected him, which surprised Liu Bei.

"Alas......!" When Lu Su heard this, he took the initiative to explain for the Lu family: "Don't worry, lord, I'm afraid that Xiao Lu Ji can't help himself!" No matter how generous Sun Ce is, he doesn't care about the Lu family, but his subordinates will still send people to monitor the Lu family. Therefore, the Lu family does not give you any reply, which is good news, if Xiao Lu Ji wants to reject you, he has already generously handed over your letter to Sun Ce.

Of course, this is just my speculation, and the people I sent have not been able to meet any of the Lu family so far. ”

"Zijing, what are you talking about? How could Lone blame a child for such a small thing? Liu Bei pretended to be angry and asked Lu Su rhetorically, and then said the truth in his heart, "Even if Xiao Lu Ji really has to hand over all the letters that Gu gave him to Sun Ce, then what can it do?" Lone knew his background, and he never expected all the wise men in the world to be loyal to Lone.

I'm just a little worried that Sun Ce will leave the Lu family idle because of the grievances between the two families, wasting talents. Jin Jue's kid is right, since most of the wise men in the world don't look down on Lone, then Lone will focus on cultivating himself. Zijing, look at it, now that Zilong and Shuzhi are growing at a faster rate, their ability to lead troops is no weaker than that of Yun Chang and Yide. ”

Hearing Liu Bei's words, Lu Su and Xu Shu couldn't help but glance at each other, thinking in their hearts, not only is it not weaker, if these two generals continue to grow, their future achievements will inevitably be much stronger than Guan Yu and Zhang Fei.

Whether it is Zhao Yun or Chen Dao, they are all generals with no obvious shortcomings, and what they lack now is only the experience of leading troops to fight.

Don't look at Zhao Yun's time in the army is no shorter than Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, but he has never been able to get a heavy task under Gongsun Zhan, and he has never had the opportunity to lead the army alone. In the original history, Zhao Yun was also the same later under Liu Bei or Zhuge Liang, and his treatment was even inferior to Huang Zhong and Wei Yan.

I have to say that Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang are greatly praised in terms of employing people, but there is a big problem in the treatment of Zhao Yun.

During this time, Lu Su and Xu Shu also realized this problem, on the one hand, they wrote to their friends, trying to persuade them to come to Xuzhou to serve Liu Bei, and on the other hand, they also began to pay attention to cultivating the people around them, even if it was a small soldier, as long as they had the ability, both of them would entrust these people to complete some slightly difficult tasks independently.

In addition to Guan Yu, Jin Jue sent Liu An to Taishan thieves as a lobbyist, which gave Liu Bei's forces a great inspiration to many Wenchen and military generals. Because of Qin Du's relationship, Guan Yu has always looked down on Jin Jue.

In fact, a few of them have long seen that Liu An is a big straw bag without much ability, but even such an insignificant little person actually has a use in Jin Jue's hands.

In fact, in the second battle of Cao Liu Xuzhou, Chang Ba Ken, who was a member of the Taishan thieves, secretly sent troops to assist Chen Zhi in defending Donghai County.
