Since he wanted to make the road smoother for Zhang Fei, Liu Jian would not refuse Dong Zhuo's invitation to a banquet.
Anyway, you are a big player, so if you are not afraid of losing money, I will certainly not be afraid of losing money either.
Dong Zhuo's banquet place was set up in the open space outside the main tent. The entrance to the handsome tent was Dong Zhuo's chairman. There were more than a dozen side seats next to it. There was a firewood pile in the middle, and a tender fat roast was being grilled on it.
Many guards cut the mutton piece after piece with knives and delivered them to the lacquer plates of the people nearby.
Dong Zhuo arranged for Liu Jian to sit on the third seat to his right. The two cases next to him were Dong Min and his. Apart from the fact that these two people could not cross the seats, Liu Jian was the closest to Dong Zhuo. It can be seen that
Dong Zhuo attached great importance to Liu Jian.
Zhang Fei is now also a military attache with six hundred stones, and he is qualified to join Liu Jian on this occasion. The rest of the entourage who came with him were taken to eat elsewhere, but Liu Jian was able to greet Han Dang alone.
"Yi Gong! You stay and wait after me."
Han Dang was a little surprised at first when he heard this, but then he became deeply grateful.
On this occasion, Liu Jian was able to ask Han to stand beside him because he undoubtedly regarded him as his confidant. This kind of treatment was not given to just anyone.
Of course, everyone else has gone to eat elsewhere at this moment, and Han Dang is standing here. He is destined to be hungry tonight, but what he gets in exchange for this meal is destined to be more than a meal.
When the banquet began, Dong Zhuo began to introduce everyone present.
The main person at today's banquet is Julongku, the envoy of Qiangqu Chanyu, the king of the Southern Huns. In addition to Dong Zhuo, there are also Dong Zhuo's officers, soldiers, as well as Sima and Junhou from the Bingzhou army.
The Huns were fond of drinking. Whenever Dong Zhuo introduced someone, he would raise his mouth to drink with him as he said in the Dragon's Cave. He looked like he had drank more than ten mouthpieces, but he didn't feel drunk at all.
Zhang Fei was surprised when he saw this: "It's just a name introduction. Everyone has to drink a sip. Isn't that a bit too polite?"
Liu Jian swung the wine in his hand, then drank the Zhongshan clear wine in one gulp, and said: "There have been years of drought and poor harvests. Wine is a treasure in the Han Dynasty and a rare treasure in the Xiongnu. This guy is here today."
I came here specially to relieve my alcohol addiction."
"Pfft!" Zhang Fei couldn't help but sneered after hearing this, and then quickly drank a sip of wine to suppress it.
Soon, Dong Zhuo mentioned Liu Jian and Zhang Fei.
Everyone present looked at the two of them.
When Julongku heard Liu Jian's name, his face showed a shocked expression for the first time.
He actually stood up from his seat, looked at Liu Jian across from him, and said: "In the battle against Tanhan Mountain, I personally beheaded He Company, obtained the body of Tan Shihuai, and captured the nobles of the royal court."
A hero?"
Even the Huns talked about Liu Jian's military exploits in such a catchy way, which shows that Liu Jian really achieved "famousness" this time.
Liu Jian raised the wine in his hand and gestured towards Julong Cave from a distance.
"Oh hahaha, who wants to make great achievements at such a young age? The Han Dynasty is indeed a great place with outstanding people and talented people. This is the blessing of the Han Emperor and the luck of the Han Dynasty! What the Huns respect the most is the hero!
It is our honor to meet Yingjie today!"
After a pause, I heard Julongku say proudly: "I'll drink ten! I'll show my joy in my heart!"
Liu Jian's smile suddenly froze.
Damn it...is this Huns here to drink from enemies?
Dong Zhuo hurriedly comforted Liu Jian: "If he wants to, let him drink by himself. You can just drink with him."
Although Julongku's Chinese is not very good, he still expresses it very well in imitating the etiquette and flattery of the Han people.
It’s no wonder that the Southern Xiongnu were completely different from Xianbei at this time. They no longer had the sharpness of their ancestors, and their overall strength was weak. They basically relied on the breath of the Han Dynasty to survive in Meiji. Therefore, for the people of the Han Dynasty, from the emperor to the
The Huns showed great respect for the border military attachés.
In this way, a group of people were barbecuing and drinking, and under the night sky on the grassland, there was a burst of cheerful joy.
Later, the pile of firewood set up by the Bingzhou sergeants was ignited, and huge tongues of flames shot towards the sky. It was really beautiful in this joyful atmosphere. At the same time, the crisp sound of military drums sounded, and a group of lights
Shirtless military men came to the field, stepped on the drums, sang Northland folk songs, and swayed while singing and dancing.
Zhang Fei lowered his head and kept eating the roasted mutton. Although his family was a disciple, they usually ate dogs and pigs. There was not much fresh mutton on the grassland, so they indulged their appetite today.
Han Dang stood behind the two of them, not squinting or dripping water. Liu Jian looked distressed and tried to pass him a few pieces of meat many times, but he shook his head and refused.
If not for other reasons, I was afraid of embarrassing Liu Jian and Zhang Fei.
Liu Jian saw that Zhang Fei was eating without raising his head, so he immediately hit him with his elbow.
Zhang Fei raised his head while chewing the fragrant meat: "Brother, what are you doing to me?"
"Don't just eat, watch carefully."
Zhang Fei looked towards the field, and what he saw was not only the devoured roast sheep with only its bones left, but also the group of shirtless soldiers dancing and singing, and the bonfire that lit up the sky...
Zhang Fei muttered: "What's so good about this?"
"Who asked you to look at them! I asked you to look at Dong Zhuo."
Zhang Fei turned his head and looked at Dong Zhuo, who was already drunk, started to speak dirty words, and showed his boldness, and asked curiously: "What's so good about him?"
"I'm not asking you to see him, I'm asking you to see how he can win the hearts of soldiers! Study hard?"
"How can brother determine that he will win over the soldiers?"
Liu Jian turned to Han Dang, raised his fingers, called him to his side, and said, "Dong Zhuo was born in Liangzhou. He is full of hostility and violent. In the eyes of the noble families in the court and the eyes of the Confucian scholars, he is a
He is a ruthless and rough man who does not know the way of a saint and does not know how to care about the people, but Dong Zhuo also has his advantages, and this advantage is that he can win over the hearts of the soldiers for his own use, and this advantage is exactly what you, my dear brother, lack."
Zhang Fei said "Oh", somewhat unconvinced.
Liu Jian turned to look at Han Dang again: "Yi Gong, after I leave, there are people in the Bingzhou army who can assist my brother Zhang Xian. I have thought about it and you are the only one who is the most stable and able to assist him. So,
I specially left you here today so that you can take good care of me and gain experience! In the future, if you are to be promoted, you must be able to take charge of your role."
These words were said very seriously, but when Han Dang heard it, his heart felt as if he had drank a large pot full of sweet wine. The gratitude and emotion could hardly be expressed in words.
He cupped his hands and clasped his fists, and said to Liu Jian: "If you can't serve as a companion in the army, how can you be so generous?"
Liu Jian shook his head and said: "In the future, don't call yourself a slave again! Now that you have joined Tunqu and have a staff, you are a soldier of the Han garrison. Remember, you are not a criminal slave!"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "You are my trusted brother!"
Liu Jian looked at Zhang Fei in surprise.
Isn't it good? Otherwise, he said that he saw Zhang Fei correctly. In just a few days, he used his trick to do everything he could.
Ok, Ok.
Han Dang sighed: "I am willing to die to repay the love between the two of you!"
At this moment, Dong Zhuo, who suddenly drank too much, stood up unsteadily and said with a cheerful smile:
"Don't get drunk if you are a good man in the army. Mr. Dong will be rewarded tonight! Hahahaha!"
