Xu Ran also knew that if Fan Xu didn't show convincing skills, it would be difficult for these people to convince the public, even if they were forced to surrender to Fan Xu by their own deterrence, it was estimated that Fan Xu's orders in the future would be left and right.

Therefore, Xu Ran decided to let them compete in martial arts, and whoever wins will be the commander of a thousand soldiers, which is a typical respect for martial arts, and several centurions also agreed.

Fan Hao was very excited, he didn't expect that he was just a civilian, but the other party looked up to him so highly, not only to make him a commander, but also to say that he would become a victorious general in the future.

Fan Xu's mood was very excited, and he secretly swore in his heart that he would not disappoint King Xu.

Xu Ran left, leaving the venue to a few of them, the first centurion to appear was called Wang Han, who had followed Zhang Liu for many years, and was able to use one as ten.

Wang Han said contemptuously: "Fan Xu, let's make a move."

Wang Han followed Zhang Liu, but after the war, he had to fight and kill the bandits around Peng County, and he had rich combat experience, so he naturally looked down on the market civilians like Fan Xu.

Fan Xu didn't say anything and walked out.

Neither of them was allowed to use weapons, but fought with their bare hands, comparing strength and skill.

Wang Han spread out his hands and grabbed Fan Xu's two hands respectively, and at the same time hooked Fan Xu's feet with one foot, trying to put Fan Xu on the ground.

But soon, Wang Han felt that something was wrong, because he used all his strength to catch Fan Xu off guard, but found that Fan Xu did not move.

"It's so strong, it's as big as a cow," Wang Han looked at Fan Hao in surprise.

"Haha, is it really useless to have this little strength" Fan Hao snorted coldly, showing no mercy, he decided to show off in front of Xu Ran.

"You..."

When Wang Han heard Fan Xu's words, his face immediately turned red.

"Haha, it's time for me to make a move"

After Fan Xu finished speaking, he turned the defense into an attack, and then his arms were forced, Wang Han threw himself uncontrollably towards Fan Xu, Fan Hao dodged away, and as soon as he pulled, Wang Han's center of gravity was unstable and he fell to the ground.

"You lost"

Fan Hao looked at Wang Han and said.

The centurions around looked at Fan Hao in amazement, they never expected Fan Xu's strength to be so great, you must know that they are also centurions, they know Wang Han's combat effectiveness very well.

But Wang Han turned out to be not Fan Xu's enemy.

"King Xu, it's the last general who lost"

Although Wang Han's face was ugly, he was convinced, stood up and said angrily to Xu Ran.

Xu Ran was very satisfied with Fan Xu's expression, the other party's strength was much greater than Wang Han's, Wang Han was directly led by Fan Xu's nose, and then looked at the rest of the centurions, and asked lightly: "Is there anyone among you who wants to make a move to challenge Fan Xu?"

There were a few centurions left, you look at me, I look at you, and finally shook their heads.

Their strength is about the same as Wang Han, even Wang Han lost so easily, they just added to the laughing stock when they went up, and they all gave up the challenge.

"Okay, in the future, Fan Xu will be the commander of the thousand, and the general who will lead you," Xu Ran said.

"The villain listens"

Several centurions hurriedly chimed in.

"Fan Xu, I am very optimistic about you, I hope you don't disappoint me" Xu Ran looked at Fan Xu and said lightly.

"King Xu, I won't let you down," Fan Xu said excitedly.

"You take Fan Xue down, arrange a good address, and reward a hundred taels of silver," Xu Ran said.

If you want Fan Xu to be sincere and sincere, you naturally need favors, and when the words fell, Fan Xu was a little dumbfounded, and then expressed his loyalty to Xu Ran: "King Xu, I, Fan Xu, will only be loyal to you in the future, and I am willing to smear King Xu's liver and brain, and never give up."

Fan Hao burst into tears.

He is a small farmer who sells dog meat in Pei County, and he can't earn a few taels of silver a year by selling dog meat, and now that King Xu is rewarding him with one hundred taels of silver, Fan Xu has an urge to cry.

"Let's go down," Xu Ran waved his hand.

Then, Fan Xu left with a group of soldiers.

Xu Ran only left about 20 people in the mansion of Duke Lu, and requisitioned a few houses in Pei County for the rest to live in, and originally the officials of Pei County wanted to collect money.

But seeing the heavily armed soldiers, they did not dare to come and collect the money.

The matter of Lu Mansion spread all of a sudden, and the celebrities of Pei County were speculating about what the so-called King Xu was, but when everyone approached Lu Mansion, they were stopped by soldiers and were not allowed to advance.

Therefore, Xu Ran's identity is quite mysterious in Pei County.

And there is another thing that is also spreading in Pei County, that is, Fan Xu, who was originally famous for selling dog meat in Pei County, was reused by that King Xu.

is not selling dog meat, but becoming a commander under King Xu, a soldier in command of a thousand people.

This matter has spread widely in Pei County, and it has fallen in the eyes of people with a heart, and Fan Xu suddenly has a lot of relatives who can't beat him, and they all come here.

Fan Hao was annoyed, and directly asked his subordinates to stop these people.

However, there was a person who came to see Fan Xu, and Fan Xu saw him.

That is Liu Bang.

Although Liu Bang is a gangster in Pei County, he has a deep friendship with many people, including Xiao He, a county official in Pei County, and Fan Xu, who sells dog meat.

Liu Bang and Fan Hao have a good relationship.

So his subordinates informed Liu Bang to ask to see him, and Fan Hao immediately saw him, and at the same time prepared wine and food, and invited Liu Bang to drink.

"Brother, you are still amazing, you have become a thousand commanders above a thousand people, my brother is very envious" After three rounds of drinking, Liu Bang said with a sigh.

"Where, where, it's all carried by King Xu," Fan Xu said modestly.

"By the way, who is that King Xu, and why did he appear in the Lu Mansion" Liu Bang asked Fan Xu about Xu Ran's origin, and then he was shocked and said: "Could the other party also be for the eldest lady of the Lu family?"

"In the past few days, Gong Lu has ignored me, is it because of this" Liu Bang frowned and twisted into a Sichuan character.

"Brother Liu, don't guess, it is said that King Xu likes the second miss of the Lu family," Fan Xu said on the side.

"So, the other party is my brother-in-law" Liu Bang's brows stretched and he said with a smile.

After a pause, Liu Bang frowned again and said, "This brother-in-law is really excessive, I originally wanted to go to the Lu Mansion to visit the eldest lady of the Lu family these days, but the soldiers under his command stopped me from entering, it really makes no sense."

I have to say that Liu Bang is very thick-skinned, and he seems to regard himself as Lu Pheasant's husband.

Fan Hao didn't squeak next to him.

"Hey, by the way, Fan Xu, can you intercede for me in front of King Xu, let me get an official and a half-position in his hands, and a centurion at will, after all, he is my brother-in-law" Liu Bang made a 'small' request.

"This...."Fan Xue was a little embarrassed.

"Fan Xu, with our many years of friendship, I don't even want to help with this little favor" Liu Bang frowned and said, and then said in a passionate tone: "Or do you say that now that you are developed, you look down on me Liu Bang."

Fan Hao is a typical well-developed limb and simple-minded, and was stimulated by Liu Bang like this, he patted his chest again and again and assured: "Brother Liu, I will go to see King Xu tomorrow and tell you something."

"Then Liu Bang thank you first," Liu Bang hugged his fists and thanked.
