Cheng Pu and Han Dang have won consecutive battles in recent days.

The morale and fighting spirit of the three armies have been greatly boosted because of the successive victories.

Previously, they were stationed in Qingzhou, and did not expedition to Luoyang, Youzhou and other places, and Cheng Pu and Han Dang did not have the opportunity to participate in these big battles.

Therefore, in terms of meritorious achievements, the two of them have always been eager to find an opportunity to show their skills and establish their status among the generals of Hebei.

This time, Cao Cao was sick and changed generals, so that Zhou Yu, the erection, came to preside over the army, Cheng and Han took the lead, leading the Qingzhou soldiers to confront the generals under Zhou Yu, which can be described as repeated victories and out of the limelight.

The next step was to completely expel Zhou Yu from the Xiapi Kingdom...... Even if Cao Cao's army is completely destroyed, it may not be impossible to capture Zhou Yu alive.

Just when the two of them were enthusiastically establishing great achievements, Liu Bei directly called the two of them and told them in person that they were going to fight against Sun Jian!

Although Cheng Pu and Han Dang are both middle-aged, their temperaments are still fierce and fiery.

This utilitarian heart is naturally not far behind others.

Seeing that the credit in their hands was about to be given to others, the two of them were very resentful.

However, after all, it was a military order issued by Liu Jian personally, and even if the two of them were unhappy in their hearts, they could not refute it face to face.

Therefore, Cheng Pu and Han Dang just sat on both sides of Liu Bei on the left and right, with their heads bowed, their eyes squinted, and their indignant expressions were overflowing.

Liu Bei looked back and forth at the two capable generals under him, and understood their helplessness at the moment.

In fact, Liu Bei himself is not unwilling?

The great credit for the good end is in front of you.

Once this battle is over, he Liu Xuande, Cheng Pu, Han Dang, including Gao Shun and several others will be famous.

What do people value most in their eyes, especially for the generals who are fighting in front of the battle?

Naturally, it is merit and martial name.

The rank of the official is not everything for the warriors, and they need to support their merits enough to stabilize their position in the army.

Everyone is a person of flesh and blood, and no one can do it without admiring fame and fame.

Especially, what was put in front of them and was suddenly taken away by someone else...... Whoever changes it will feel uncomfortable.

Will Liu Jian not know this truth?

Liu Bei believes that Liu Jian must know!

But the reason why he still gave such a military order to himself must be his reason.

Even if Liu Jian didn't explain this reason to Liu Bei now, it meant that Liu Jian felt that the time was not right and he couldn't explain it to Liu Bei.

As a brother, Liu Bei is willing to understand the difficulties of his younger brother.

Liu Jian is a superior, as a superior, naturally everything will have a comprehensive consideration, it is impossible to tilt sideways for the one-sided situation, for the overall situation, sometimes sacrifice the interests of some people, this is inevitable.

As Liu Jian's closest and closest person, Liu Bei has the obligation to understand Liu Jian's feelings, and he must also stand in Liu Jian's perspective and consider the overall situation.

He also has to find a way to make up for Liu Jian's omissions in the details that he missed because of the overall situation.

For example, Cheng Pu and Han Dang's emotions.

Liu Bei looked back and forth at the two people in front of him, and suddenly raised his head and laughed.

"Demou! Righteous father! What's wrong with you guys? ”

"Is it because of this little thing? Are you unhappy and complaining about your lord? ”

"Where is your heroic spirit?"

Cheng Pu hurriedly bowed his hand to Liu Bei and said: "Xuande Gong's words really make the last general embarrassed!" The end will be with the lord for a long time! If it weren't for the lord's general's promotion from Youzhou to Luoyang, how would the last general have the glory of today? It was the lord who changed the fate of the last general! Pu is dedicated to the lord in this life! How can there be complaints? ”

Han Dang also hurriedly explained: "When the last general was outside the Saiwai, he was just a guilty companion, and it was still difficult to protect himself, so how could he talk about making meritorious contributions?" If there had been no lord to promote me from among the ranks, what would I be today? When he is like a virtuous man, he only admires the lord in this life, and he is willing to sacrifice his life to the lord! Don't say it's my own life, even if I give the life of my whole family to my lord, I should be willing. ”

Liu Bei nodded with satisfaction.

"Since the virtuous and righteous fathers are so loyal to the lord, why are they hesitating at this moment?"

Cheng Pu said with a wry smile: "It's just that we don't understand it in our hearts!" ”

"We can do as my lord tells us, but we have to give the credit to others...... So who are Cao Bao and Yuan Shu? In a certain opinion, they are just narrow-minded despicable people, and all the credit and favor for defeating Cao's army are handed over to them, and our previous battles, as well as the lives of those soldiers who died in front of the battle, are not all in vain? ”

Han Dang also sighed.

"If the lord asks us to transfer troops to fight Sun Jian, in fact, we will be fine, but why ......?"

"Smack——!

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Liu Bei slam the table suddenly, and then got up angrily.

"Although you don't complain about the lord, how is your performance at this moment different from complaining about the lord?"

"It is to see the good must be passed, not selfish, and celebrate the good without its name! Call yourself in the position, not for Gou Jin! Praise things and give them, not for the sake of gain! The noble side is not against the rules, the gentleman is not good, and the order is not disordered! ”

"The lord's orders this time, I can't say whether the lord is wrong, but the lord must have his considerations!"

"As subordinates, we should obey the orders of the lord to consider everything, not only to obey, but also to understand!"

"Right now, we can't limit ourselves to the gains and losses of one battle and one city, but we must follow in the footsteps of the lord! Think big! You must know that the lord is looking at the entire Han Dynasty, and even the territory outside the Han Dynasty, not just the victory or defeat of Xuzhou and this battle. ”

"If the lord is the kind of person who only looks at the immediate benefits, will he have the honor of waiting for the three of me today?"

"You always use common sense to speculate on the thoughts of the lord, but if you think about it carefully, if the lord is a person who practices common sense, how can he have today's momentum? If the lord is a person who follows common sense, how can he promote you Han Yigong from the ranks? ”

"If the lord is a person who follows common sense, how can he transfer you Cheng Demou and a senior official from Youzhou, thousands of miles away, to Luoyang?"

"I'm very disappointed to hear what you two said."

When Cheng Pu and Han Dang heard this, they were shocked.

saw the two of them hurriedly stand up and salute Liu Bei for a long time.

"Xuande Gong's training today is really alarming! We are narrow-minded and do not yet know ourselves...... As a subordinate, but he doesn't know how to share the worries of the Lord, he doesn't know how to understand the suffering of the Lord, and he is self-righteous, which is really a great sin. ”

saw Han Dang take out the dagger he was carrying, stretched out a little finger of his left hand, and was about to swing his blade and cut it off!

Liu Bei's eyes were quick, and he hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Han Dang's wrist.

"Yigong, what are you doing?" Liu Bei yelled angrily at Han Dang.

Han Dang's face was solemn: "When I was deeply favored by the lord, but at the critical moment, I questioned the lord's military orders...... What a sin deserves death! Today, I would like to cut my finger and wake up and remind myself that I will never do it again! ”

Liu Bei forcefully broke Han Dang's palm, pulled the dagger out of his palm, and his hand was still on the ground.

"Your hands are used to hold weapons, and you hold the reins of your horse and go into battle to kill the enemy! It is used to prop up a heaven and earth for the Lord. ”

"How can you easily harm yourself and despise yourself?"

"If you chop off your little finger now, it will be the greatest blasphemy against your lord."

"You are the lord's beloved general, and self-harm is disrespectful to the lord, do you know it."

Liu Bei's words are sonorous and powerful, which is deeply admirable.

When Han Dang and Cheng Pu heard this, they were deeply impressed in their hearts.

"What Xuande Gong said is very true, and he should know that he is wrong."

Cheng Pu on the side also bowed his hand to Liu Bei and said: "Our vision is very shallow, Xuande Gong is far-sighted, and can make the hearts of all the princes more able to correct the inappropriateness in Han Dang's behavior, Pu Wan admires, and is willing to obey the military orders of the lord and the commander of Xuande Gong." ”

Liu Bei looked at the two of them with satisfaction and nodded heavily.

"That being the case! When I come, I will go to Tao Qian to explain that I will transfer troops to Pengchengguo to fight Sun Jian. ”

"You wait for the hour, ready to start at any time!"

"Whoa!"
