Chapter 72: Searching for Talents
Traveling is an idea that Su Chen has long had, from the time he first crossed here, he had the idea of studying abroad, but he fell short, and his life was almost lost. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a few years, this idea was finally put on the agenda for three reasons: first, to broaden his own knowledge, half of his knowledge of today's Han came from intelligence sources, and the other half was from personal experience.
The second is that he has now encountered a bottleneck in his development, to complete the relocation of nearly 500,000 people, this project is very huge, in addition to food, how to manage the food, drink and Lazar of these 500,000 people, but it is a difficult problem, in order to solve such a dilemma, he must recruit a person who is good at internal affairs.
For the desire for talents, he has never changed, in the past because he was not famous and had no strength, but now it is different, not to mention that Su Wei has become a general of Duliao who holds real power, guarding one side, even himself, who is only twenty years old, has made the merit of sealing the wolf.
Because of this, he also carp jumped into the dragon gate, and became a captain of the Wuhuan with a rank of two thousand stones, and was also made a marquis, although he was a pavilion marquis, but the name Su Poyu did resounded through the Han Dynasty, plus he was Cai Yong's son-in-law, and he also had a lot of fame in Shilin, and it was not an exaggeration to say that he was full of fame.
With such a foundation, he is really stupid if he doesn't make good use of it, reputation is the same as power, and it is expired and invalid, so while his reputation is now in full swing, and the Su family also has the possibility of becoming a top family in the Han Dynasty, it is the best policy to quickly turn his reputation into real benefits.
The last and most important point is that a ridiculous will of the imperial court was transmitted to the Dahan Border County, and with Dong Zhuo's position as the lieutenant of the Si Li, he had a hunch that perhaps the original history of coercing the Son of Heaven to make the princes break out in advance, the world was in turmoil, and there were already signs of the princes' separation.
Therefore, it is imperative for him to reserve talents, use the limited time, and quickly gain a firm foothold, only in this way can he take the lead before the world is in turmoil, and make full preparations for the great cause in the future.
The six generals were busy training their subordinates, so naturally they had no time to accompany Su Chen on a trip, Guan Yu was busy purging the armies of various ethnic groups, and he couldn't get out, but considering the safety issues, Su Chen still took him with him, and the five hundred wolf riders as his personal guards naturally had to accompany him, as for the purge work, Su Wu could only take over temporarily.
"Su An, take a few scouts to the front to explore the way." Su An is the captain of Su Chen's guard, this kid is full of enthusiasm now, especially when he missed the battle to break through the royal court of Danhan Mountain, he was very remorseful, when he learned that Gongzi was going to travel, he took the initiative to ask Ying to accompany him, and Su Chen asked him to be a captain of the guard.
After Su An got on the road, he slowed down, rode on a horse, and said to Guan Yu beside him: "Yun Chang, this trip, you will see a lot of heroes and heroes, I wonder if Yun Chang has confidence?" ”
"No refusal! Just take these heroes to try this Qinglong Glaive Knife. Guan Yu was full of confidence, this big knife was a three-grade magic weapon, which was found in the treasure house of Tanshi Huai, Su Chen saw that it was quite similar to the shape of Guan Dao in history, and named it Qinglong Yanyue Knife, Guan Yu loved this name very much.
The third-grade magic weapon is already the highest level in the treasure house, and the rest only found a phoenix-beak knife, which is a second-grade magic weapon, a spear, and a second-grade magic weapon, and then there is a giant axe, which is just a first-grade magic weapon, and the rest of the weapons are also considered divine weapons, but they are not magic weapons.
However, after harvesting four magic weapons in a row, Su Chen was also very pleased, those gold, silver, jewelry, fur and baggage, although they greatly supplemented the Su family's resource reserves, but compared to these four magic weapons, it was a little insignificant.
Moreover, what pleased him the most was that Yeli's master was captured on the battlefield, and after some screening, he learned that he was a Xianbei wizard, and he was sent to Su Chen.
Su Chen didn't care whether he was loyal or not, what he cared about was the secret of the other party's control of the beast king, the old wizard gave the secret himself, he had no clue after reading it, so he could only give up, and let the wizard master and apprentice continue to tame the beast king and the beast.
Most of the beasts died in the war, plus the one Su Chen brought back from the royal court, there were only about thirty beasts in total, plus two beast kings and four beast king cubs, this was a secret army, and he would not use it easily unless it was absolutely necessary.
In his vision, it would be great if he could train the Beastmaster as a mount, the winged tiger was huge, extremely fast, and able to fly short distances, so that such a mount could save his life when it mattered.
However, if you want to subdue the high beast king, this is not easy, he shifted his attention to the four tiger cubs, if the tiger cubs grow up, train into a mount, how majestic it should be, to the battlefield, that will be invincible.
Su Chen's plan for this trip was to go south first, cross the east of the river, go to Luoyang, first go to Luoyang to visit Dong Zhuo and his master Wang Yue, and then pass through the Sili area, transfer to Yuzhou, pass through Yanzhou, and go to Xuzhou, Xuzhou is his destination, and then return to Wuyuan County from Youzhou through Qingzhou and Jizhou.
Because they are all cavalry, and there is no baggage, so all the way to go fast, to Taiyuan County, the group temporarily stayed, Su Chen visited the Taiyuan Wang, Wang Wei personally went out to greet, the two sides exchanged a few words, he sent a salute and then left.
The Su family is different from the past, if the Taiyuan Wang family was still a big mountain hanging over the Su family's head in the past, then now the Taiyuan Wang family is just a small dirt slope, the Su family is no longer an existence that can be manipulated by others, and although the Wang family is deep-rooted, it is not so terrible.
So in the face of Wang Wei's 120,000 enthusiasm, Su Chen was neither humble nor arrogant, relaxed and calmly accepted all this.
After Taiyuan, he headed directly towards his destination Hedong, Guan Yu has not been home for several years, Hedong has his wife and children, it's time to go home and see.
Now although Guan Yu is not allowed to get ahead, he also has an official body, Wei Cheng is a six-hundred-stone official, compared to the county order, plus he has become the general of the Su family, his status is not the same, with the current status of the Su family, even the Hedong Wei clan does not dare to provoke easily.
Seeing that Guan Yu's mood was not high, he comforted him: "Yun Chang, it was not your fault that you killed people and fled in the past, this time we will pick up my sister-in-law, it can be regarded as a bitter end, as for the Hedong Wei family, Yun Chang does not have to worry, although the Wei family is strong, but we are not vegetarians, if he wants to move us, then let us weigh his catties." ”
In fact, Su Chen is also very curious about how much background a family like Hedong Wei has in the future, this can be regarded as a temptation, he will develop in the north in the future, and his biggest opponent is Yuan Shao.
The Yuan family is a family with many heroes, the fourth generation and the third duke, this is the top family of the Han Dynasty, and he knows very little about it now, so if the Hedong Wei family really wants to send it to the door, he doesn't mind weighing the other party's catties.
After Guan Yu heard this, his expression was really much more relaxed, and Su Chen intended to appease his emotions, so he shifted the topic to another place and asked: "By the way, Yun Chang, I heard that there is a strong man named Xu Huang in Hedong, who is rarely brave and proficient in the art of war, I don't know if you know this person?" ”
Mentioning the name Xu Huang, Guan Yu looked at Su Chen in surprise, and saw that there was no discoloration on his face, and he was a little puzzled for a while, not knowing how Su Chen knew about Xu Huang, but he still said honestly: "The person Xingyu said not only knows, but also has been friends for many years. Gongming he was born in a family of generals, but it declined, he was a small official in the county, and he used to help a lot, and he thought of the two of us discussing martial arts together, so unhappy. ”
Speaking of this, his expression suddenly darkened, and he sighed: "I was able to escape from Hedong at the beginning, thanks to Gongming's help, and I don't know if he was affected by me. ”
"As it should be! Brother Yun's benefactor is my Su Chen's benefactor, let's hurry up, it will only take a few days to reach Hedong County, and then the blessing or the curse will be clear at once, Yun Chang don't have to worry! ”
"Drive!"
Within a few days, the group arrived at Xie Liang in Hedong, and as soon as they entered the city gate, someone recognized Guan Yu: "Guan Changsheng? You are Guan Changsheng, why did you come back? How dare you ......?"
The man wanted to say, "You dare to come back", but when he saw him sitting on a tall horse, followed by more than a dozen elite cavalrymen, he couldn't figure out the situation for a while, and he didn't dare to offend him.
Before entering the city, Su Chen ordered the army to camp outside the city, he and Guan Yu only brought a dozen people into the city, and the five hundred cavalry in the border county was nothing, but it could be placed in the interior, but it was a very strong army, and he had no intention of adding trouble, so he did not bring the army into the city.
Guan Yu also recognized the person, who was his former neighbor, and asked casually, "Ergou, do you know if my wife is at home?" ”
The man called Ergou looked at Guan Yu who was riding on a tall horse, swallowed his saliva, and replied: "Brother Guan, go back quickly, the chief went to your house to urge food again, but I am afraid that I will eat it if I go late." ”
"What?" Guan Yu listened to the big hurry, he didn't know what kind of goods looked like there, he bullied men and women in the village on weekdays, although Ergou's words were not thorough, but he understood, and immediately pumped the horse's buttocks and ran home quickly.
Su Chen also knew that something might be wrong, so he hurriedly beckoned his brothers to follow, but he kept an eye on it and said to the two dogs: "Your name is the second dog, right, can you ride a horse?" Come with us and take a look. ”
Ergou was still on the war horse in a daze, his heart was confused, stroking the tall war horse, beating the drum in his heart, and couldn't help but think: Obediently, this Guan Changsheng seems to be developed outside, this war horse is afraid of tens of thousands of dollars, it is really majestic, I didn't expect that my Chen Ergou can also ride a war horse.
"Drive!" Su Chen was stupid with joy when he saw this kid, and slapped the horse's buttocks, and the war horse suddenly ran fast.
"Hey, hey, slow down, ah, I'm going to fall, you brute, slow down!" Chen Ergou hurriedly hugged the horse's neck with both hands, and then stabilized his body and did not fall off the horse.
"Hahahaha!"
