Chapter 49: The Gambling Fight (2)

When Dong Shouye heard this, this Sun Jian had a lot of appetite, and he opened his mouth to say that there were five hundred war horses, and the value of these five hundred war horses was very huge. Besides, the war horses in Sun Jian's army are definitely not as good as the Xiliang army, it seems that Sun Jian is very confident, and he is quite confident in the martial arts of the generals under his command, and it is inevitable to win five hundred war horses! So he said, "Well, according to my uncle's wishes." ”

At this time, Sun Jian suddenly said: "I heard that the virtuous nephew and Xu Huang, Xu Gongming, Zhang Liao, and Zhang Wenyuan are brothers with different surnames, and they have always been together an inch, but now Zhang Wenyuan is standing behind the virtuous nephew, but why didn't he see Xu Gongming?" ”

Zhang Liao said at this time: "Back to Sun Yuzhou, my brother was sick and bedridden before, and he has been recuperating in Chang'an City. ”

Sun Jian looked at Dong Shouye, and Dong Shouye also nodded to indicate that this matter was true.

Sun Jian saw that Dong Shouye and Zhang Liao were conclusive, and their attitudes were sincere, not as if they were fake, so he didn't ask too much.

So, after Dong Shouye and Sun Jian made an agreement, they each returned to their respective armies to discuss specific candidates for the first battle.

After Dong Shouye returned to the army with Zhang Liao and Dian Wei, he summoned all the generals under his command to discuss the specific arrangements for the candidates. Now Dong Shouye has a lot of military generals. Since Dong Shouye and below, Jia Xu, Xu Rong, Hu Zhen, Li Dao, Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, Hua Xiong, Li Meng, Yang Feng, Zhang Ji, Du Ji, Song Guo, etc., the lineup is also quite unusual. (The above order can also represent the current status of these generals in Dong Shouye's heart or the status of the army under his command) After everyone arrived, Dong Shouye told everyone about the situation, at this time Jia Xu said: "When the two armies are fighting, the generals are single-handed, and there have been since ancient times, but Gongzi has thought about who to send to fight, and the specific order of battle. These two things need to be cautious, especially the latter, you must know that Tian Ji and King Qi Wei horse racing, although the upper horse, the lower horse, and the middle horse are not as good as King Qi Wei, but the upper horse against the middle horse, the middle horse against its lower horse, the lower horse against its upper horse, the best of three games and thus the victory of King Qi Wei. Childe's matter needs to be carefully considered, if you are a little careless, I am afraid that you will be worried. The actions of the fighting generals are all done to improve morale, and if they are defeated, I am afraid that the morale of the three armed forces will be damaged. ”

Dong Shouye replied: "The meaning of the military advisor, this son has already understood, and he will definitely make proper arrangements." ”

turned to the generals under his command and said: "Who is willing to participate in this fight?" If someone is willing, they can offer it. Of course, if you don't want to participate, my son will not be reluctant. ”

So everyone was eager to try, except for the old fox Jia Xu, they all had to sign up for the war, and even Zhang Ji and Du Ji, who were regarded as civil officials by Dong Shouye, also shouted to join the war, which also surprised Dong Shouye. In fact, what Dong Shouye didn't know was that in the Han Dynasty, the martial arts style of the whole era was very popular, and the distinction between civil and military was not as clear as that of later generations.

Dong Shouye was overjoyed when he saw that the people were in high spirits and that they were going to participate in the war one by one. But only five people are enough, and so many people can't be used up, so he said: "De Jong and Bo Yan don't participate in the two of you, the two of you now play a similar role in the army to civilian officials, and you still need to rely on the two of you in many civil affairs, and you can't afford to lose." ”

Zhang Ji and Du Ji also knew that their son-in-law intended to train himself in the civil service, so they gave up immediately and did not fight for the opportunity to fight.

The remaining Xu Rong is now Dong Shouye's deputy general, and he is not good at martial arts, although his martial arts are good, Dong Shouye is not willing to let him go out to fight. In this regard, Xu Rong insisted on wanting to fight several times, and said that the son felt that he was old, and Dong Shouye was also relatively speechless, it seems that the Xiliang army is indeed a good martial artist, and he is naturally aggressive! In the end, it was fortunate that Jia Xu came forward to persuade him.

Hu Zhen, as the chief general of the friendly army at this time, although he is now under his own command, but after all, he does not know deeply, and he is the main general of one party, and his own command is not without candidates, so he decided not to let him participate in the war. In this regard, Hu Zhen has no objection.

As for Yang Feng, Dong Shouye originally planned to choose between Li Dao and Yang Feng, but then remembered that Yang Feng's martial arts were not as good as Li Dao, so he chose Li Dao to fight, Yang Feng was also a little unconvinced, and clamored to compete with Li Dao, and then Dong Shouye appeased him a few words, so he gave up.

As for Song Guo, the captain who just joined Dong Shouye's command, Dong Shouye didn't know much about him, and he hadn't seen Song Guo perform martial arts, so he had no confidence in him, so he gave up, after all, Sun Jian is not an easy person, and the generals under his command are also a top power, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang, all followed Sun Jian's birth and death, and fought in the south and the north, and made a lot of contributions, and later assisted Sun Ce and Sun Quan one after another, all of whom were famous figures in the world, and should not be underestimated.

Li Meng was selected to play again, in fact, Dong Shouye didn't know enough about him, he originally wanted not to let him play, but he played in person, Dong Shouye had not said anything about this matter, and it had already been seen by Jia Xu, who immediately spoke out against it, asking Dong Shouye not to take risks lightly. And Xu Rong also followed and did not let Dong Shouye fight, and said to Dong Shouye that since he did not let himself fight, he would let his subordinate general Li Meng fight instead of him. Dong Shouye didn't want to brush off the kindness of the two, so he had to agree to let Li Meng fight.

Therefore, after several deliberations, Dong Shouye and his subordinates discussed the candidates for the war: Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, Hua Xiong, Li Dao, and Li Meng. Dong Shouye was also a little proud in his heart, and if he was not careful, he made a starter five tigers.

In Dong Shouye's view, the certainty of his victory in this battle is still relatively large, and now the number one general in Sun Jian's army is Sun Jian, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, it is estimated that plus the generals Chen Ji and Lei Bo in Yuan Shu's army, it is estimated that Sun Jian's younger brother Sun Jing should also be in Sun Jian's army at this time, but from all aspects, Sun Jing's martial arts are definitely not as good as Sun Jian's, and it is estimated that it should be similar to the martial arts of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang.

With the martial arts of Dong Shouye's current generals, if there are no accidents, everyone is playing normally, it should be possible to defeat Sun Jian, after all, in Dong Shouye's opinion, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Han Dang's martial arts are definitely not as good as Zhang Liao, Dian Wei, and Hua Xiong. Then there will be no suspense at all.

Although Dong Shouye is very sure here, there will be many unexpected factors after all, and they are not subject to human will, and this point of history is precisely the most fascinating.
