Chapter 228: Zhang Hong
For several days, Wen Han, Xi Long, Guan Yu, and Xu Huang were overwhelmed, and almost received nearly 100 scholars. And what made Wen Han overjoyed was the arrival of Zhang Hong and Han Song.
Zhang Hong, who is a strategist in the middle of history, and Zhang Zhao are collectively called 'Erzhang'. Wen Han remembered that the history books recorded that Zhang Hong traveled to Kyoto when he was a teenager, and originally had the intention of entering the office, but because of the mediocrity of the imperial court at that time, Zhang Hong was unwilling to enter the office. He returned to the county and was promoted to Maocai, and later took refuge in Jiangdong due to the war.
And why did Zhang Hong's arrival make Wen Han so happy? This still has to start from a piece of history, when Sun Ce's power had just become and he was worried about how to develop his power in the Jiangdong area, which was the enemy on all sides. His brother of the opposite sex, Zhou Yu, who burned Lao Cao's millions of soldiers and horses in the future, Zhou Gongjin told Sun Ce.
"My brother wants to help big things, and I also know that there are two Zhanghu in Jiangdong?"
Ce said: "What are two sheets? Yu said: "One person is Pengcheng Zhang Zhao, the word Zibu, and the other person is Guangling Zhang Hong, the word Zigang." Both of them have the talent to live in seclusion here to avoid chaos. Why don't I hire my brother? ”
Cexi, even if people are hired with courtesy, they can't resign. Ce Nai came to his home in person, and Yu Dayue hired him, and the two agreed. He then worshiped Zhang Zhao as the general of the long history and the middle of the army, and Zhang Hong as the staff officer and the captain of the school.
It is precisely because of the arrival of Erzhang that the little overlord Sun Ce stabilized the internal affairs of Jiangdong, so that the people of Jiangdong lived and worked in peace and contentment, the economy developed rapidly, and there were few people who committed trouble, that Sun Ce was able to continue to expand his power in the future and lay a foundation sufficient for his younger brother Sun Quan to be king in Eastern Wu.
Later, the exploits of Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong made everyone in Soochow admire. Even Sun Quan called his words more than the ministers, but called Zhang Zhao Zhang Gong and Hong the east, showing his respect for the two.
Here, it can be seen that Zhang Hong's ability can be seen, and from the historical description, Zhang Hong is a top master of internal affairs, equivalent to Xiao He next to Han Gaozu.
As for the other person, Han Song. History records that he was young and studious, and he was poor and did not change his will. Because he saw that the world was about to be in chaos, he and several friends lived in seclusion in the Lixi Mountains. Later, Liu Biao was a different driver and switched to Zhonglang. Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty worshiped Song and served in the middle of the Lingling Tomb. This person can do the defense of a county, which shows that his intelligence is extraordinary.
Wen Han calculated the time and guessed that Zhang Hong should be studying in Luoyang at this time, and Han Song had not yet lived in seclusion with his friends in Lixi Mountain. What Wen Han didn't expect was that by chance, the two of them would join his command.
Wen Han attaches great importance to Zhang Hong and Han Song, treats them with the courtesy of a countryman, and worships them with a high position. Zhang Hong is the magistrate of a county, and Han Song is the magistrate of Hedong, who manages the armaments, taxes and other miscellaneous matters in Hedong.
Zhang Hong gives people the impression of being like a pot of water that can't be boiled, a pair of brows are always wrinkled, and he doesn't smile, just like those old professors in later generations, exuding a stern atmosphere. As for Han Song, he is a relatively calm scholar, and his meticulous character can be seen from his neat dress.
The two of them were worshiped by Wen Han as a long history and a high position, and they seemed to be a little surprised, originally they both thought that when they first arrived, Wen Han would definitely consider them and make a decision.
Unexpectedly, Wen Han seemed to be very aware of their talents, and the position they worshipped was also the position where they could best display their talents. However, Zhang Hong and Han Song quickly retracted the surprise on their faces, only bowed slightly, and said in unison that they would not fail Wen Han's high hopes.
Both Zhang Hong and Han Song are arrogant and confident people, since Wen Han is willing to worship a high position, they will not back down, and they all have a determination in their hearts to show their skills and achieve fame.
In the past few days, except for Zhang Hong and Han Song, two cattle people who can make Wen Han's eyes shine, the other scholars are some mediocre people, Wen Han asked Zhang Hong to check and arrange, Zhang Hong first divided these scholars into several batches, considered them one by one in different fields, and assigned the official positions.
When Zhang Hong was assigned, he said in an unquestionable tone, if some scholars felt that the distribution was uncomfortable or the official position was low, and wanted to ask Zhang Hong to make a slight change, then Zhang Hong would have a cold face, and then pointed out the door, which means that it is impossible to change, if you don't like it, leave by yourself.
On one occasion, there was a scholar who had a little money in his family, and his talent was not bad, and he was assigned an official position, but he was still not satisfied. wants to secretly bribe Zhang Hong and give him a high position. Zhang Hong didn't say a word at that time, threw the silver he stuffed to the ground, and removed the scholar from his original position, and drank it away harshly.
Therefore, Zhang Hong is called by some scholars, a cold-faced ghost.
Zhang Hong dismisses this, and is still as strict as before, and even has a tendency to become more severe. After Wen Han learned about this, he greatly appreciated Zhang Hong's integrity.
With the three capable people of Xi Long, Zhang Hong, and Han Song, Wen Han has been extremely idle these days, and now it is almost the day of taking office, and the handover that needs to be prepared here in Luoyang has been completed, and the official position is also divided into seven, seven, eight, eight.
Before leaving, Wen Han and Guan Yu and Xu Huang Yili first went to He Jin's mansion to say goodbye. After He Jin saw Wen Han becoming the guard of a county, he did not forget his roots and remembered his old kindness. At this time, Wen Han was no longer under his jurisdiction, and it can be seen from this that Wen Han was selfless, but respected him as a general from the bottom of his heart.
He Jin had some feelings, he originally intended to recognize Wen Han as his righteous son, but Wen Han kept flying into trouble, and he was full of mildew, He Jin saw this, and immediately threw this idea away. However, what He Jin didn't expect was that Wen Han finally turned evil into good fortune and achieved a lot of fame.
He Jin felt a lot, although Wen Han's current strength was not enough to make him lower his stature and conspire with him in some big things. But Wen Han is full of variables, and He Jin still plans to invest some in Wen Han. He gave a lot of gold silk, armaments, and good horses to Wenhan.
Wen Han came this time, not to ask He Jin for funding. originally wanted to refuse politely, but He Jin said categorically, this is his intention, if he refuses, it is to look down on him He Suigao.
According to this, Wen Han had no choice but to accept them one by one. Later, the two brothers, Wen Han and Guan Xu, had just walked out of General He's mansion and were about to go to Wang Yun's mansion. The butler of the palace was already waiting in front of the general's door. Seeing his mysterious look, Wen Han thought that Wang Yun had something important to explain, and even got into the carriage with the two brothers Guan Xu.
Soon, the carriage stopped at the palace. Under the guidance of Wang Lao, the three Wenhan brothers came to the backyard of the mansion with ease. In the backyard, there is a small pavilion, it is late autumn, and the yellowed leaves are slowly falling, adding a bit of vicissitudes to the entire backyard. Wang Yun sat in the pavilion, and a pot of boiling water was boiling in a hole in the stone table.
When Wang Yun saw the Wenhan brothers coming, he waved them to take a seat, and then lifted the kettle again and poured three cups of tea. After the three Wenhan brothers took their seats, Wang Yun held the white beard and smiled kindly.
"Hehe, champion. I heard that your command is now full of talents, whether it is Xilong, Zhang Hong, and Han Song, they all have talents that have passed through the heavens and the earth. You can accept the three of them, and you will no longer worry about your future as a teacher.
But, champions. This person can't forget his roots, you can't forget the old people once you get your will. ”
Wang Yun suddenly changed his words, and Wen Han was confused. Wen Han made eye contact with Guan Yu and Xu Huang for a while, as if he was asking Guan Xu and the others if he had done something inappropriate. Guan Xu shook his head inexplicably.
"Teacher, I don't know what the apprentice has done wrong. The apprentice is stupid, and the teacher is asked not to beat around the bush and point it out directly. It's just a matter of changing it. ”
"Good. Champion, ask you for the teacher. In addition to being a teacher, do you have a teacher? ”
In addition to the prince, the apprentice was also fortunate to be favored by the Duke of Cai and became the apprentice of the Duke of Cai. Belch... The teacher didn't think that the apprentice had forgotten Cai Gong?
Teacher, this is a wronged child. The apprentice sent a letter to Cai Gong earlier, asking him to go to Hedong to enjoy happiness together, but Cai Gong replied that he was old and only wanted to enjoy his old age in the township. ”
"Thou... Do you know that it was this letter that made Cai Feibai's old man furious, and then he said angrily that he only wanted to enjoy his old age in the township? ”
"Huh? This...."
"Champion, do you know who Cai Feibai values the most?"
"Of course, it's Cai Gong's daughter, Cai Yan's sister."
"After two years, why didn't you mention Yan'er's name in this letter? You don't know, Yan'er worries day and night for you, doesn't think about tea and dinner, is thin, and has a stubborn illness. ”
Wang Yun's words suddenly made Wen Han's body tremble, and he recalled Yiren's goose egg pink face and charming big eyes in his mind, and then the picture turned, this beautiful face was full of paleness, and the big eyes with gods became dull and pitiful.
"Why did Senior Sister Cai Yan end up with a stubborn illness, how is she?"
Wen Han looked at Wang Yun very nervously, and there was an inexplicable sharp throbbing pain in his heart, Wang Yun shook his head and said.
