"Zhongkang has good eyesight!"

"It's Cao Ang down there."

"This time, I led my troops to Qiaoxian County to take up the post of Yuzhou pastor, and twenty miles away from here, I received news that there was a battle here."

"Identify one of the parties, that is, the strong man you lead, is the local people of Yuzhou, and I, as the shepherd of a state, will naturally fire troops to come to the rescue."

Hear Cao Ang admit his identity.

Xu Chu's face immediately showed a hint of excitement.

The whole person visibly became excited, and without saying a word, he bowed to Cao Ang again.

"It's really General Cao's face!"

"The general's name moves all over the world, and his reputation is famous in the world, and when I heard the general's rumors for a long time, I have long wanted to see the general, but unfortunately I have never had the opportunity."

"I never thought that today I would have this fate, not only to see the people I have admired for a long time, but also to help you, the general, and rescue the subordinates and your fathers and fellow villagers."

"It's exciting!"

Xu Chu's words.

Cao Ang couldn't help but smile.

Unexpectedly, this legendary warrior was still his admirer, and he had heard of his reputation as Cao Ang in the world.

Then things will be easier.

If you want to recruit Xu Chu under your command and gain his loyalty, it must not be difficult.

Come to think of it.

Cao Ang immediately gave Xu Chu a gift.

At the same time, his mouth was full of praise and said: "The so-called fame moves all over the world, and it is just a coincidence, and the current situation in the world is like this, which is just urging people to forge ahead." ”

"But just now on the way here, I saw Zhong Kang with my own eyes, pulling the tail of the ox with one hand, pulling an extremely strong ploughing ox upside down for a hundred steps, so he is not a hero!"

"It can be expected that even if I don't show up with the soldiers and horses, with Zhong Kang's hand, it will be enough to deter this group of thieves and make them retreat in fear."

Cao Ang's praise made Xu Chu a little shy.

Scratched his head a little innocently.

But the smile on his face could not be hidden.

Obviously being complimented by your idol is something for anyone to be excited about and rejoice in.

"The general is really overrated, and I just have a bit of brute strength, not much ability."

"The real heroes and heroes have to be the ones who gallop the battlefield like you, become famous all over the world, help the general of the building, and save the people from fire and water!"

……

Xu Chu slapped another sycophant.

made Cao Ang a little crying and laughing.

This fierce man seems to be a rough man, but in fact, he also has a bit of thought, and his heart is not as reckless and honest as he appears on the outside.

At this point.

It's similar to Dian Wei.

Dian Wei looked like a black iron tower, and his voice was as low as a bronze bell, and at first glance he thought he was a straight intestine and a simple person with no thoughts.

Actually, I have a lot of things on my head.

At the very least, Dian Wei can complete the tasks assigned to him by Cao Ang, and even exert his subjective initiative on the basis of the task.

Achieve excess results.

From this point of view.

When Xu Chu was recruited, he was one on the left and one on the right, two giant spirit gods.

It's all a giant spirit god with a little wisdom.

Absolutely invincible!

After a moment, my thoughts flowed like this.

Cao Ang didn't answer Xu Chu's praise anymore, but smiled and waved his hand.

"Zhong Kang, after this war now, we are all acquaintances, so there is no need to be so polite."

"But there is one thing I want to ask, this group of thieves is obviously a yellow turban thief, but I don't know where their roots come from, could it be that there are still thieves gathered around Qian County?"

……

Heard Cao Ang ask about business.

Xu Chu didn't dare to slack off.

After thinking about it seriously for a while, he said to Cao Ang: "Don't hide it from the general, this group of thieves actually migrated from Runan County. ”

"Peiguo is located in the hinterland of Yuzhou, bordering Yanzhou to the north with stable people and strong strength, and strong Chen with strong soldiers and horses in the west."

"Besides, the world knows that the Cao family in Qian County is where General Cao came from, but anyone who is afraid of life and death will not dare to make a mistake here."

Xu Chu elaborated on the situation slightly.

Then he pointed to the remnants of the Yellow Turban Thieves who were being guarded and tied up by Cao Jun soldiers on the battlefield not far away, and said in detail.

"I've been entangled with this group for a while, and I've fought several times during that time, so I've sent someone to inquire about where they came from."

"This group of people was originally in Gepo, northwest of Xincai County, Runan County, where they made a living by looting."

"It's just that Yuan Shu Yuan Highway was defeated by the general recently, and he had to give up the territory of Nanyang County and return to Runan County to consolidate first."

"And although Yuan Shu is not the enemy of the general and you, for this kind of yellow turban thief, it is no less than the tiger of the mountains and forests, the dragon of the nine heavens."

"So after getting the news, this group of people fled all the way to Runan County, and instead ran to Peiguo's side, and Qian County is a big county in Peiguo, so it is not surprising that they were targeted by this group of people."

……

Xu Chu's explanation.

Cao Ang was a little speechless.

After a long time, the root cause was still here, this group of yellow turban thieves with tens of thousands of people was actually scared by Yuan Shu, who was driven away by himself.

It's really amazing cause and effect.

But after turning his head and glancing at the group of thieves who were already in a state of embarrassment at the moment.

Cao Ang couldn't help but smile again.

"You said that this group of people said that they were closed off the mountain, but they could receive the news that Yuan Shu had returned to Runan."

"But if you want to say that they have spiritual light, they don't know the importance of Qian County, and they don't know that this place is the necessary place for this general's trip."

"They should have this problem!"

As soon as this statement came out.

Xu Chu suddenly smiled.

Just waiting to say something.

suddenly remembered something, and then hurriedly looked panicked, and apologized to Cao Ang and several generals around him with a little anxiety.

"Look at my memory, I have been talking for a long time, but it is a sin to let the general and you stand here and talk, and not even serve a bowl of tea and soup!"

"Please also ask the general to lead your troops to move, and go to the nearby Zhuangzi to rest for a while, not only hot tea soup, but also snacks and beds."

"If you can, you can stay in Zhuangzi for one night, and then go to the county seat of Qiaoxian tomorrow."

……

Passion for Xu Chu.

Cao Ang naturally had no reason to refuse.

Moreover, when the cavalry was separated from the large rear forces and did not carry a large amount of baggage, it was very inconvenient to supply and set up camp.

Now there are towns and villages, willing to provide places and certain living materials, why not?

"Then bother Zhongkang!"

Cao Ang's answer made Xu Chu's face once again appear with an enthusiastic smile.

immediately greeted the old folks.

Prepare to lead the army to Zhuangshang.

But he didn't wait for Xu Chu to set off.

On the side, Dian Wei stopped him.

"Brother Zhongkang, don't forget that there is also a ploughing ox here, this excellent ploughing ox, if it is lost here, it will be a great loss."

When Xu Chu heard this, he immediately turned his head to look.

However, in the next second, the pupils shrank.

I saw Dian Wei learning from his previous appearance, dragging the tail of the ox with one hand, while strolling leisurely, as if watching flowers and admiring the moon, he slowly pulled the cow back.

And the ploughing oxen also cried out in pain.

And brute force.

But under Dian Wei's stable posture, it was difficult to shake a bit, so he could only drag it all the way and return to Xu Chu.

……

Dian Wei showed such a hand.

When even some suppressed Xu Chu.

Despite Dian Wei's size, it was impossible for Xu Chu to ignore him no matter what.

But people are always like that.

Before seeing the strong strength of others with his own eyes, he will always have doubts, after all, many people have empty bodies, and they can't exert much strength.

"This ...... This general is so powerful! ”

"I look at your posture, than when I dragged the oxtail before, it is more relaxed and freehand, General Cao's command is really able to produce many people!"

As soon as this statement came out.

Pawn Wei immediately laughed.

He touched the neck of the ploughing cow, calmed him for a while, and handed it over to a farmer.

Then he smiled at Xu Chu and said, "I saw Zhongkang use such a stunt before, and I was itchy for a while, and I couldn't help but show off." ”

"If there is any offense, I hope Brother Zhongkang will forgive me, don't blame it!"

Xu Chu after sobering up from the shock.

Immediately smiled.

He shook his head absently.

"What's so strange about this, the general has the shape of a mountain and contains monstrous power, Chu will only be cited as a fellow practitioner and regarded as a lifelong confidant and friend."

"But please forgive me for asking bluntly, there should not be a few people in your army who are as powerful as the general, and you should even be the strongest?"

……

Xu Chu asked this for a purpose.

In fact, after he learned Cao Ang's true identity, he already had an idea.

That is to take such a group of people under his command to join Cao Ang and start his military career.

After all, the purpose of his original formation of the township soldiers was to protect his hometown and have the power to protect himself.

And now General Cao has arrived with his troops.

Qian County is about to become the capital of Yuzhou again, and General Cao will definitely send troops to wipe out the surrounding thieves and bandits.

Then when the time comes, won't the township soldiers formed by themselves lose their usefulness and become useless?

It's better to take advantage of the moment.

Some of those who did not want to join the army were dismissed, and the rest followed him and entered the Cao army together.

How much can also be mixed with a merit, and in the future, it will not be a high-ranking official and a blessing for future generations.

Moreover, the reputation of the Cao family has also been heard of by himself, and the general Cao in front of him is even more thunderous.

Wherever Cao Jun went, he did not commit any crimes in autumn, and he recuperated with the people, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

And according to some news obtained in the past two years, the strength of the Cao family is getting stronger and stronger, and the territory it owns is getting bigger and bigger.

This is clearly the master!

If you don't follow such a person, then with whom?

……

And after deciding to defect to Cao Ang.

Then Xu Chu asked Dian Wei such a question, and the intention was quite clear.

It must be determined how many fierce people like Dian Wei are in Cao's army.

If only there was one Dian Wei.

Even if Xu Chu defects to the past, he can still rely on his uniqueness to get the attention of the above.

But if you grab a handful.

Then he should really be a low-key man and dare not underestimate the heroes of the world, which is a more troublesome situation.

But when you think about it, it doesn't seem likely.

With his own strength, he has never met an opponent since he was a child, and in his youth, the average adult man is far inferior to him.

This should be considered a gift.

And Dian Weiben's body shape is exaggerated, and he has such a powerful power, he should also be a gifted person.

People with this kind of talent should be extremely rare, and it is impossible to grab a handful.

……

Really.

As Xu Chu expected.

Dian Wei grinned and smiled cheerfully.

Then he shook his arms, bringing a powerful sense of oppression.

Then he said with a bit of self-satisfaction: "In the whole army, except for General Cao, there must be no general who can say that he is as high or low as my bare hands!" ”

Xu Chu got the answer he wanted.

However, the opening sentence.

But it caught his attention.

"Why did Your Excellency say that in addition to General Cao, General Cao also has great strength and is difficult for ordinary people to beat?"

Dian Wei didn't have time to answer.

Cao Ang hurriedly interrupted him.

"Zhong Kang, don't listen to General Dian's boasting to me, I'm better at commanding, not very good at fighting people, and I've never played against General Dian."

"Let's go, and lead us to Zhuangzi first, and rest and recuperate for a while."

Under Cao Ang's eyes.

Dian Wei could only smile.

Then he said again and again: "Go and go!" ”

See this.

Xu Chu could only hold back the words back in his stomach first, and then ordered people to lead the way in front and lead the large army to the village they led.

…………

On the way.

While Cao Ang was talking to Cao Chun.

Xu Chu quietly touched the back and came to Dian Wei's side, and after the two of them approached, Xu Chu lowered his voice and asked Dian Wei in a low voice.

"General Dian, what is going on, what is the strength of General Cao you said just now, can you tell me privately, I will never pass it on!"

Dian Wei tilted his head.

After glancing at Xu Chu.

I thought in my heart that this guy would most likely join Cao Jun in the future and become his own.

Moreover, for the general's prestige, so that the whole world praises the general's invincible name, this is also what he is good at and is keen to do.

So after thinking about it for a while.

Dian Wei immediately leaned into Xu Chu's ear, and then whispered: "My general is by no means a mortal!" ”

"Don't look at the general's figure, he is not as strong as you and me, but in fact, the general's body contains extremely huge power!"

Just the opening remarks frightened Xu Chu, which made this tiger idiot stunned.

Turned his head and glanced at Cao Ang's back in front of him.

I still find it a little unbelievable.

General Cao's body shape, compared to ordinary young and middle-aged men, is naturally considered to be athletic.

But compared to myself, it was still a little thinner.

But in such a thin body, there is a huge amount of power?

I don't dare to think about it, and I don't dare to believe it!

……

Dian Wei seemed to know what Xu Chu was thinking.

Immediately patted him on the back with his hand.

Then he snorted lightly and said: "Don't believe it, I will list a few points of empirical evidence, and you will be convinced!" ”

Xu Chu arched his hand.

Motioning to Dian Wei to continue.

After Dian Wei sorted out his thoughts, he raised three fingers at Xu Chu, and then spoke eloquently.

"One of them is when I first met the general, when I was walking with him, and the road happened to be covered by heavy rain that washed down the mountains and forests, and a large number of rough logs piled up on the side of the road directly cut off the road!"

"In the end, I and the general joined hands, one for each person, back and forth, to move the woods."

"At that time, I saw with my own eyes, the general's face was not red or panting, and he didn't even sweat a few drops, so leisurely, he picked up the wood and threw it aside, you just said that this is not strong!"

Listen to Dian Wei bring up old things.

Xu Chu was taken aback.

Looking at the thickness of the trees that Dian Wei compared and the length of the trees he dictated, Xu Chu felt that it was difficult for him to be easy to carry and run around.

And General Cao Ang was able to calm down and move these pieces of wood to the side of the road, which is indeed quite powerful!

……

And that's not enough.

Dian Wei then pressed a second finger.

"Since you have known about my general, and have heard of the prestige of my general, you must also know that in the first battle of Yanshi County, the general fought alone against Lu Bulu Fengxian, and won the battle after thousands of rounds of fighting."

"Lu Fengxian, I don't know if you are familiar with it or not, but at that time, all the heroes from all walks of life who witnessed this battle called the general a man of heaven and earth."

"You weigh it yourself!"

Xu Chu knew about this battle, but he really didn't know much about Lu Bu, and Lu Bu's invincible reputation in the world was mainly spread in the circle of Beijing officials who came out of Luoyang.

Although it has spread a lot over the years.

But after all, the scope is limited.

However, at the beginning, the Dong Alliance gathered more than ten princes and heroes from all over the Kanto region, who were either famous in the world or big names in the official face.

These people have both vision and insight.

Even they called it invincible, praising it as heaven and earth, and if you think about it with your toes, you can imagine how shocking General Cao's performance was at that time.

Believe!

When the evidence is listed in the second article, Xu Chu has basically believed it, and this is obviously not the limit of Dian Wei.

……

"I don't know if Brother Zhong Kang has ever mixed in Ren Xia's way, in our way, there is an extremely powerful character, named "Sword Immortal". ”

"If you are good at swordsmanship, you are often like lightning between shots, and the opponent has already been defeated under the sword before he can react."

"However, he is such a powerful person, but he is completely inadequate in front of the general, and no matter how much he tries his best and exhausts all his life's learning, he can't break through the general's defense at all!"

"At that time, I was also a first-hand witness of this battle, and I saw the general with his head closed, standing in place as if he was asleep, which shows that he is at ease."

"What do you think?"

Served!

Xu Chu is completely convinced!

In fact, anyone who has some family background, has the strength in his hands, and can follow a few younger brothers behind him, has been mixed with the so-called rivers and lakes when he was young.

Although Xu Chu has been busy recruiting young and strong people in the past two years, he has formed township soldiers to defend his hometown.

But he's been mixed up before.

For the name of "Sword Immortal", naturally I am not unfamiliar, although I have never fought before, but the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, can be spread so godly, the strength is definitely not weak.

However, he is such a strong person.

General Cao was able to defeat him without moving with his eyes closed, so if you calculate it, how high the strength of the Cao family's army is, I really can't think of it.

Like mountains and seas, it is immeasurable!

…………

Under the boasting of Dian Wei's momentum.

Xu Chu was quickly assimilated by him.

From the first meeting to the present, at most half an hour, Xu Chu has faintly had a tendency to transform into "ang blowing".

I don't know what will happen in the future.

Cao Ang has two door gods, one on the left and one on the right.

When the opening is "My general is invincible in the world", "The general is a man of heaven and earth", "The general broke me with one finger", what kind of scene will it be.

At present, Cao Ang does not know about this situation.

He was only guided by the villagers, and after walking for a while, he saw the rural settlement from a distance.

At this time, Xu Chu also stepped forward at the right time, his eyes were full of respect and admiration, and his mouth was extremely enthusiastic to show Cao Ang.

"General, please see, this is our Zhuangzi, although the house is a little simple, but the place is big enough, and there are few wild beasts around."

"Later, I will let the villagers vacate the space and vacate most of the house, so that your brothers also have a place to shelter from the wind and rain."

……

Hearing this, Cao Ang immediately smiled.

But he still chose to refuse.

"Zhong Kang is polite, but it is somewhat troublesome to bother the villagers to move the place, and besides, the people in the army are already very resistant, and they are not so fragile."

"And the most important thing is that I'm not only a soldier in the army, but also a soldier who was captured before, these people are not stable."

"If you don't take strict care at night, you will have a mess if you don't make trouble, so it's better to find a flat place on the side and make do with it all night."

was reminded by Cao Ang.

Xu Chucai suddenly remembered the group of Yellow Turban thieves.

I don't want to persuade him anymore at the moment.

After all, if there is a mess, it is their Zhuangzi who will really suffer, which is no joke.

"In that case, then I will let the villagers bring the thatch, and let the brothers cushion the mats, and deal with it overnight, so that they can keep warm from the cold."

"But General Cao, you, and all the generals, please go into the house and live in peace."

This time, Cao Ang agreed.

Soon, under Xu Chu's arrangement, he lived in Xu Chu's house with Dian Wei.

…………

Although it is called Zhuangzi.

But in reality, the scale is not small.

There are obviously several wealthy families on the farm.

And Xu Chu is obviously one of them.

His mansion is not only large enough, but also has a lot of family members and subordinates waiting to entertain Cao Ang and his party to eat, and the quality is definitely not bad.

That's quite reasonable.

After all, if Xu Chu was born in a poor family, it would be difficult for him to become the leader of the local township soldiers, even if his personal strength was amazing, he would not be unanimously appointed.

After a shower, change clothes, and rest state.

Xu Chu entertained Cao Ang and others with a banquet.

During the banquet, the cups were pushed and changed, and the chips were staggered.

It's hearty!

And after three rounds of drinking.

Xu Chu picked up the wine lord, toasted Cao Ang, and then spoke bluntly and asked Cao Ang.

"Dare to ask the general, when you take up the post of Yuzhou pastor this time, will you stay in Qian County next, or will you just stay here for a while and leave?"

For your next trip plan.

Cao Ang didn't mean to hide it.

"I will set up a state capital here, but I will not be permanent, after all, my foundation is still in Yanzhou, and the place where Qian County is located is a little too deep after all, and it is inconvenient for me to rule the overall situation next."

……

At first glance.

Xu Chu suddenly felt a little disappointed.

But it's fleeting.

He quickly went on to ask: "The general has set up a state capital here, so he must have appointed officials and cleared up the surrounding situation, right?" ”

Cao Ang smiled and nodded.

"This is natural, the shepherd of a state is child's play, in fact, the team that came with me is in the rear army at the moment."

"When I enter the county seat of Qiaoxian tomorrow, I will start to arrange for all the surrounding bandits and bandits to be cleared up to determine the people under my rule."

"Before I leave Qiaoxian, I will leave some soldiers and horses behind in case of emergency."

This remark immediately made Xu Chu excited.

Cao Ang's plan was the same as he thought.

At this point, Xu Chu no longer hesitated.

After putting down the wine glass in his hand, he got up and bowed to Cao Ang, and said respectfully.

"There is a general as the lord of Yuzhou, it is really the luck of the people in the state, after the general clears the surrounding bandits, the hometown folks will return to stability, and there is no need for Chu to continue to defend his hometown."

"It's just that such a force is not easy to recruit, and it is easy to dismiss, it is inevitable that you will be unwilling, I don't know if the general is willing to take them in and make them a pawn in your army?"

……

A glimmer of brilliance flashed in Cao Ang's eyes.

After glancing at Xu Chu meaningfully, he then asked with a meaningful smile: "If you can recruit soldiers who are good at fighting, the more the better." ”

"But after taking in these villagers, where does Zhong Kang plan to go?"

Xu Chu smiled a little innocently.

"Don't hide it from the general, I naturally want to devote myself to you, follow a master like you, I want to come to the future without worry, but I don't know if you can accept it, general?"

As soon as the words fell.

Cao Ang suddenly got up.

While laughing loudly, he held Xu Chu up with both hands, and then said with relief.

"If I can get Zhongkang's effect, why worry about not succeeding in a big thing, I can get Zhongkang, like a tiger!"

"In the future, you will follow me, for the general who will accompany me, if there is anything unclear, you can ask General Dian!"

Cao Ang's arrangement made Xu Chu happy.

The same military generals are also divided into external generals and internal generals, the outer generals are naturally leading the troops to fight, and the internal generals are close protection, or internal supervision.

Don't say who is high and who is low, but in the hearts of the commanders of the whole army, the weight will definitely not be light.

In addition, he will be in charge of defense work, and it will be difficult for him to take on this great responsibility if he is not a trusted person.

This shows General Cao's trust in himself!

Besides, what kind of status Dian Wei was in front of Cao Ang and what kind of treatment he had, he Xu Chu could see it clearly before.

When he first arrived, his status was definitely below Dian Wei, but compared to the rest, it was definitely not bad.

Think about it here.

Xu Chu immediately bowed to Cao Ang again.

"Thanks to the general's refusal to give up and treat me well, I am willing to use this meager life to serve the general!"

So far.

Cao Ang has added another fierce general!
