Sure enough, after Liu Bei went back, he summoned Tian Feng, Jia Xu, Sun Gan and Jian Yong, and then several people discussed secretly in the Taishou Mansion for a whole night. In the next day, Liu Bei ordered a large-scale arrest in the city of Changyi, and most of the children of the family involved in the case were from the Cao family in Xuzhou. For this reason, he also wrote a letter to Cao Bao, reprimanding him fiercely, and at the same time reduced the Danyang army under Cao Bao from 30,000 to 10,000, and the remaining 20,000 were transferred to Zhang Ji, Zhang Ji was stationed in Pengcheng at the moment, which was a disguised seizure of most of Cao Bao's military power.

As soon as the decree came out, Liu Bei's rule was shaken. The people of the family didn't expect Liu Bei to be so strong this time, and even the Cao family in Xuzhou didn't give face at all. This time, the order under Liu Bei's rule was shaken up, and the children of the originally invincible family received the family message and began to act in a low-key manner.

To be honest, this time Liu Bei didn't kill on a big scale, except for killing a few short-sighted shocks, the others mostly asked each family to pay for their children to take back. But the man was brought back, but his position was gone. In other words, after this action, Liu Bei's subordinates vacated a lot of positions, and there were fewer of those family members who were in the position of corpse meal, and Liu Bei began to promote newcomers and cronies.

Among them, Sun Qian was considered by Liu Bei to be a different driver in Youzhou, and he would rush to Youbeiping to take up his post in the near future. He was replaced by Zhuge Liang's eldest brother Zhuge Jin, and Gu Yong was also reused and entered Liu Bei's strategist group. In addition, there are some children from poor families recommended by the teacher Lu Zhi, and they have also been reused at this time.

Wenchen is like this, and on the side of the generals, Liu Bei established a military academy at the suggestion of Han Fei before, and now it has begun to take shape. Although only a group of graduates from the academy graduated, almost all of these people became lower-level generals in the army, and with the addition of these people, Liu Beijun's strength increased again.

At this moment, Han Fei wrote an excerpt on the hospital bed and proposed a new reward to Liu Bei! That is to set up five tiger generals, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao. This is the candidate Han Fei listed for Liu Bei. After Liu Bei got the excerpt, he immediately found Jia Xu, Tian Feng, Jian Yong and Gu Yong to discuss.

To be honest, there is no objection to the selection of Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, but Ma Chao has yet to be considered, one is that he has been taking refuge for a short time, and the other is that he is still young, and there is still a lot of room for growth in force, and he has not yet reached his peak at this time. Another reason is that Liu Bei is thinking about whether Zhang He and Tai Shici are more suitable than Ma Chao.

Zhang He has been guarding the border with Cao Jun all these years, and if it weren't for him, Cao Jun would have already fought over. So I love Zhang He and Liu Bei very much. Besides, Tai Shi Ci is proficient in arching horses, and he once fought with the little overlord Sun Ce without winning or losing, and his martial arts are not lower than the current Ma Chao. If you only talk about martial arts, then he should also be one of the candidates!

After a few people sat down, Liu Bei said what he meant. At this time, Tian Feng spoke: "General Zhang He is indeed good, he has been guarding Shanyang City so far, and Cao Jun does not dare to take a step east. I thought it would be more appropriate to choose General Zhang He! ”

"Eh, don't make such a mistake! What are the five tigers, it is really powerful! These five tiger generals should be respected by martial arts, not to mention that General Tai Shi Ci and I have known each other for a long time, and his martial arts are not low compared to General Ma Chao and General Zhang He, so I think it is better to be elected Tai Shi Ci! It was Gu Yong and Gu Yuan who spoke.

Since the surrender of Liu Bei, Gu Yong has been very low-key. In addition to often going to the teacher's house, he rarely has contact with outsiders and is focused on his work. Liu Bei likes such subordinates very much, and he is also Mrs. Han Fei's senior brother, so Liu Bei is still very good to him. Listening to him speak today, I immediately paid attention, but I was not in a hurry to decide anything, and see what others had to say.

Tian Feng was not annoyed by Gu Yong's refutation, he thought for a while and said: "I still choose General Zhang He, everything is decided by the lord." ”

"What do you think?" Liu Bei looked at Jia Xu, who was there, and took the initiative to ask. After getting along for a long time, Liu Bei was also used to Jia Xu's passive character, so he took the initiative to ask when he didn't speak.

Liu Bei wanted to ask, but Jia Xu immediately spoke: "Lord, since you are hesitating in the three-person room, why don't you change five to seven, and directly set up seven tiger generals?" ”

"What?" As soon as Jia Xu opened his mouth, Liu Bei was directly stunned, and then pointed at Jia Xu with his hand and said with a wry smile: "Okay, you Jia Wenhe, you can't be offended by anyone!" ”

"The lord praised it!" Jia Xu said with a smile.

God TMD praised you, Liu Bei was laughed at by him, and then ignored him and turned his head to look at Jian Yong. As a childhood playmate, Jian Yong still knew Liu Bei very well, and when he turned his head to look at him, Jian Yong immediately cleared his throat and said, "Lord, although what Master Jia said is good, I think the military advisor should have a deeper meaning." ”

"Oh? Xian and you will talk about it. Liu Bei urged.

"Yes. My lord, why did the military advisor propose the Five Tigers, I think there should be two reasons. First, Wutong Wu, that is the meaning of bravery. As the saying goes, a thousand armies are easy to get, and a general is hard to find, and since ancient times, brave warriors should be the first to be glorified. Second, the establishment of the Five Tigers should be an encouragement and encouragement to the generals in the army! Let them forge ahead, and at the same time think that if they can do it, they can also go up and challenge one of the five tigers! After Jian Yong finished speaking, he sat back with a smile.

But his words woke everyone up, yes! It seems that the military advisor should mean this, these five tiger generals are not a fixed position, they can be rotated, if anyone thinks that they can go up to challenge, and if they win, they will naturally become the new five tiger generals.

Liu Bei's eyes lit up after hearing this: "Okay, it's just that anyone can challenge it, won't it be too child's play!" ”

Tian Feng said: "The lord is worry-free, this matter is easy to do, and the time limit can only be challenged once a year, and the challenger can only challenge one person a year." ”

"Wonderful, if there are too many challengers, we might as well let them fight first and select five people to challenge the five tigers!" Jian Yong added on the side.

In this way, you and I said a word, and after a while, I came up with a set of challenge plans. Liu Bei was very satisfied, and since everyone's enthusiasm was so high, he immediately announced: "Okay, let's do it according to this." The first Five Tiger Generals will be followed by Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and Ma Chao according to what the military advisor said! In addition, a challenge is held every spring, and then five people can be selected to challenge the five tiger generals, and you can discuss how to operate it carefully, if not, you can find Zicong to help, he can't be idle at home to recuperate. ”

The crowd burst out laughing!
