Chapter 131: One Stone Stirs Up a Thousand Waves
Just when Chen Sheng and Zhou Cang walked towards the hall one after the other.
The hall was already full.
Jia Xu, Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Hu Che'er, Qian Chong, Chen Feng and others will do their best. These people are all famous and well-known people in Nanyang Wancheng now.
Together, they have built the current power of the entire Nanyang County.
Most of the people were familiar with each other, only Wei Yan and Liao Hua were a little pale. However, the Xiliang people are very bold, and after getting along in the past few days, although they have not made friends with Wei Yan and Liao Hua, they are also a little kind.
And this time Chen Sheng officially summoned them for the first time, and many people felt a little strange in their hearts.
Although everyone didn't know what Chen Sheng summoned them to discuss, everyone knew one thing, that is, Chen Sheng had a plan.
And Chen Sheng, as the new lord of Nanyang, will definitely have a plan when he first ascends the throne. I just don't know what the plan is, what is the future development plan?
Is it a ploy against Cao Ying?
Many people find it itchy and unbearable.
"Wen Chang, Yuan Jian, the two of you have been following the general for a while, and you can be described as confidants. Do you know the general's plan to deal with Cao Ying? ”
One of the generals finally couldn't help but ask, gearing up and looking eager to try.
It can be seen that this is a war maniac.
"Yes, with the wisdom of the general, the future must be a great show. Don't look at us now that we are weaker than Cao Ying, much weaker. But maybe in the future, our Nanyang forces can replace it. ”
Some generals nodded their heads and looked forward to the future.
As the two generals asked, everyone was itching. couldn't help but look at Wei Yan and Liao Hua, wanting to ask what was going on.
Facing everyone's eyes, Liao Hua and Wei Yan smiled bitterly.
Although the two of them have been following Chen Sheng for a long time, they are only training by themselves, and they have not discussed any future plans or anything like anything with Chen Sheng, who knows.
However, the two felt that it was too inappropriate to say that they did not know in the face of the hot eyes of the generals, as if cold water was poured on a blazing fire.
And now the Nanyang forces, the new bereaved boss, it is the time to boost morale, pouring cold water, what's the matter.
Therefore, Liao Hua's heart moved, and he said vaguely: "With the general's intelligence, of course there is a plan. However, this matter is very important and needs to be kept secret. Therefore, the two of us are not very clear about the general's plan. ”
"Exactly." Wei Yan next to him also rarely put away his cold look, nodded and said. Then, he said: "Now that the general is in charge of Nanyang County for the first time, it is the first time to summon everyone. It must be a great plan to calm people's hearts, as long as you take a moment, the general will share it with you. ”
Failing to get a satisfactory answer from the mouths of Wei Yan and Liao Hua made the generals a little stupid. However, the generals soon cheered up again and began to speculate with great interest what Chen Sheng's development plan was.
What kind of bright future is the future? In short, no one doubted Chen Sheng's ability to command the people of Nanyang, as well as his strategy for developing the future.
It shows that Chen Sheng is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
When everyone was talking, they were full of interest, and their words became louder and louder, and they were all red and red, and their essence was shining. This made Wei Yan and Liao Hua also fall into the longing for the future, and they couldn't help but join the speculation.
Even because of grief over Zhang Xiu's death, he vomited blood and fell into a coma. At present, he is still a little weak, a little taciturn, and the lifeless Hu Che'er's eyes also flashed a little essence.
This makes the atmosphere in the hall extremely hot.
If you say that you are not affected by the fiery atmosphere in the hall, then Jia Xu is the only one.
At this moment, Jia Xu's eyes were slightly closed, as if he was asleep, as if he was awake but not awake, he looked extremely calm, and even stayed out of the matter, not here.
However, Jia Xu seemed to be out of the way, but his ears listened to the discussion of the generals in the hall word for word.
His heart is also very bright and sober.
Because of this, he was a little unimpressed with the generals' vision and outlook for the future.
At this time, a general longed and said that under the leadership of Chen Sheng, it would only take two or three years to achieve hegemony.
He also gave the example of Sun Ce. This example won a round of applause from the generals. Sun Ce was just a hairy boy back then, but it only took a few years to pacify the six counties of Jiangdong.
Moreover, when the army was first raised, the allocation of troops was also extremely scarce, and the conditions were very difficult. And now Nanyang, the two counties of Runan combined, there are 30,000 or 40,000 elite soldiers. It's a lot stronger than Sun Ce.
This statement that Chen Sheng may be able to achieve hegemony within two or three years naturally won the unanimous applause of the generals.
Only Jia Xu shook his head in his heart, he admitted that Chen Sheng's talent was far better than Zhang Xiu's, and it was not an exaggeration to say that it was even more than ten times.
He also spoke highly of Chen Sheng.
"Cao Gong was drunk once and beat Chen Sheng, what a mistake turned into a thousand hatreds."
This is a phrase he often sighs. When Zhang Xiu was ambushed, seriously ill, and about to die, he passed the position to Chen Sheng. Jia Xu sighed even more.
"Under Chen Sheng's governance and command, the entire Nanyang will definitely become a hard bone."
Therefore, Jia Xu's evaluation of Chen Sheng has always been very high. But Jia Xu didn't believe that Chen Sheng could achieve the cause of the king in two or three years.
The biggest challenge is Cao Ying.
Since Cao Ying has an enmity with Chen Sheng, and he has clearly recognized Chen Sheng's talent, it is impossible to give Chen Sheng a chance to develop. That's the biggest challenge.
Jia Xu believed that Chen Sheng would be able to get through, but even if he dodged, he was afraid that he would have to pay the price. At that time, Nanyang's power will definitely be damaged, and it will take a long time to cultivate.
According to Jia Xu's guess, after defeating Cao Ying, Chen Sheng may need to cultivate and accumulate power, which will take a few years.
Therefore, Jia Xu does not believe that Chen Sheng can rise in two or three years.
However, on the other hand, Jia Xu believes that Chen Sheng can achieve the cause of the king. Because, the general trend of the world is currently changing along a subtle trajectory.
Cao Ying, Yuan Shao was destined to have a battle, and at that time it was an opportunity for Chen Sheng. That is Liu Biao in the south, Jingzhou.
In the south, Liu Biao spans Jianghan, has 100,000 belts, and has most of the counties of Nanyang County, Shangyong County, Xiangyang County, Nan County, Jiangxia County, Changsha County, Guiyang County, Lingling County, and Wuling County.
It can be said that the soldiers are well fed and the territory is vast.
In this troubled era, Liu Biao is second only to Cao Ying, Yuan Shao, and even a third-party huge force that slightly surpasses Sun Ce. Looks unshakable.
But in Jia Xu's view, Liu Biao is just a fat sheep in the troubled times, and sooner or later he will be swallowed up. And Chen Sheng is the tiger wolf who swallowed the fat sheep.
Jia Xu does not doubt this.
However, according to Jia Xu's calculations, it will take at least two or three years for Chen Sheng to cultivate and accumulate strength, and it will take more than five or six years to embezzle Jingzhou.
That adds up to seven or eight years. And only by annexing the vast land and city of Jingzhou can it be regarded as a king.
If it is said that Chen Sheng can pacify Jingzhou in two or three years and achieve the cause of the king. Jia Xu didn't believe it.
"Da-da-da-da."
Just then, there was a sound of footsteps. The footsteps were very powerful, as if they were a war drum, hitting the generals' chests.
This calmed down the excitement of the generals a little.
But to calm the generals completely, that is not possible. They all looked up at the door of the hall, and their eyes were all very hot.
Under the gaze of the generals, Chen Sheng and Zhou Cang walked in one after the other.
Chen Sheng and Zhou Cang both sensed the heat of the generals, Chen Sheng thought about it for a while, and guessed seven or eight points, and walked straight up to the top seat very calmly, and sat down on his knees.
Zhou Cang was a little puzzled, these guys, these fiery eyes seemed to swallow Ming Gong, what happened? Although Zhou Cang was puzzled, he also acted quickly, followed Chen Sheng quickly, and after Chen Sheng knelt down and sat down, he stood next to Chen Sheng, with a pair of eyes open, like a male tiger, shining and vigilant.
"Meet the General."
After Chen Sheng sat down, Jia Xu, Wei Yan, Liao Hua, Hu Che'er and others bowed to Chen Sheng. Although he is a general, he is a great courtesy.
In fact, with the current power of Nanyang County, it is nothing for everyone to call Chen Sheng the lord, but compared to those big princes, Chen Sheng is weaker in terms of power and reputation, and he may be laughed at by people if he is called the lord.
Therefore, everyone still learned to call Zhang Xiu the general at the beginning to call Chen Sheng.
This is normal, what is not normal is Zhou Cang, who always calls Chen Sheng by Ming Gong.
Of course, these are all off-topic. But he said, "After the people bowed to the kings and ministers, and bowed to the generals." Chen Sheng immediately raised his hand and said, "It's all your own people, so you don't need to be polite." ”
"No."
Everyone agreed, and then straightened up again, straightened their posture, and the atmosphere in the hall became very solemn.
Of course, deep down, the generals are still very hot, and finally, when the puzzle is revealed, what kind of plan does the general have for the future?
Can the business of the king be successful? If it becomes the business of the king, then the founding of the country is inevitable. Will they become the Founding Fathers?
How long does that take? Is it really two or three years?
In the future, the splendid future, the generals felt their blood boiling just thinking about it.
The generals also guessed more or less that Chen Sheng would have measures and careful planning. However, the first step is not to make a big show, but to rectify the military power.
Since Chen Sheng has made up his mind, he will naturally not drag his feet.
Not long after, Chen Sheng spoke: "This time I summoned you here, but I discussed one thing. That is, I think that with the current strength of Wancheng, there are too many generals, and everyone does not belong to each other, which affects the combat effectiveness. I would like to take the opportunity to rectify and form a unified order. ”
One sentence can be said to be a stone that stirs up a thousand waves and shakes the generals.
Not to mention the generals of Xiliang, even if it was Wei Yan, generals like Liao Hua were shocked. And Jia Xu is also one of them.
